Seeing Batistuta's turnaround volley saved by Schmeichel, the stands at the Stadio Franqui resounded with a wave of regret from Fiorentina fans.

Schmeichel, who made a successful save, was in a cold sweat at this time - on such a slippery lawn, the goalkeeper was quite risky when making a save, because no one knew when the ball would change its trajectory or flight speed due to various pitfalls, which would make the original save useless, and it would also cause the team to lose the ball.

So, after Schmeichel got up from the turf, he yelled at David May, who had blocked his view, telling him to pay attention to his position and not to always drag himself on the side of the entire line.

For example, when Barty shot just now, the positions of Barty and Ronaldo were outside the Manchester United penalty area, and there was no opposing player in the Red Devils penalty area, but David May stood on the line of the small penalty area and did not follow out to participate in the defense, which not only affected Schmeichel's vision, but also did not play a positive role, no wonder Schmeichel was so annoyed.

Seeing Schmeichel's angry look, David May quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake, he has been at Manchester United for more than two years, but he knows a lot about the Dane's temper, and it is definitely not a wise move to argue with him at this time.

After finishing Fiorentina's attack, United launched a quick counter-attack led by Schmeichel, and Keane received Schmeichel's tossed ball and quickly distributed the ball to David Beckham on the right.

After taking two steps forward with the ball, Xiaobei didn't wait for Carlos to come up and force him, and raised his foot to send a 45-degree oblique long pass.

David Beckham's cross found the head of Eric Cantona, who was battling Ferrara for position, and the King shook his head and flicked the ball to Ryan Giggs, who was plugged in from the left!

Giggs, who received a pass from Cantona, took advantage of the situation and rushed into the Fiorentina penalty area, and when he took a few lateral steps, he found that Di Biagio and Zambrotta were both rushing towards him, intending to give himself a closing dog.

Finding that the situation around him was not good, Giggs naturally would not sit still, so he decisively picked up his left foot in front of the two and shot directly!

Due to the slight rush of Giggs's shot, the Welsh winger's shot was from a good angle and not very fast. Such a shot was no threat to Toldo, who was in good position to take the flying ball into his arms and easily defuse United's quick counter-attack.

"It's been 30 minutes since the start and it's still 0-0. However, the excitement of the game did not diminish because of the lack of goals, and both teams were quite tempo-tempo, with players from both sides creating a number of scoring chances, but unfortunately they failed to capitalise on those opportunities and missed the goal. The commentator added with regret that in his opinion, both teams in this game played quite openly, especially the Serie A champion Fiorentina, who did not put on an iron bucket at home because of the aggregate lead.

The managers of the two teams clearly have different views on the situation on the pitch at this point. Ferguson, who lost the first leg, had to lead United to at least three goals against Fiorentina in this game to secure progress, so the old Scottish man stood on the sidelines and shouted at his players, asking them to speed up the game and seize all the time to attack in order to equalise as soon as possible.

Capello, who took the initiative, did not adopt a rigid strategy under Zhuang Mingge's reminder, but adopted a strategic approach of defensive counterattack. This is quite important, to know that at the turn of the century, the reason why the Serie A team repeatedly played in the European arena, in addition to internal friction, the biggest problem was that in the case of dominance, the unwise choice of the iron bucket formation, the initiative to the other party, Zuihou led to the birth of a series of tragedies.

Therefore, although both sides play with long balls and rushing plays, Manchester United are more likely to adopt a strategy of pressing and risking attacks across the board, while Fiorentina are more on the basis of a solid defense on the basis of long balls to threaten Manchester United's goal.

Anyway, Ronaldo's speed is there, Redondo and Effenberg's long passes are accurate, and Barty, who is at the peak of his career, can also keep up with the speed of the team's counterattack. So, if Manchester United really dare to press too high at the back, Fiorentina players really don't mind educating the Premier League champions on the importance of defense on their home turf.

As a result, the game time flew between the two teams' offense and defense.

In the 36th minute, Effenberg made a long pass from the backfield, Robert Carlos received the ball from the left side at high speed and crossed directly with his left foot, Batistuta met the header of Parlist, who was defending him headed, the ball was slightly over the crossbar;

In the 44th minute, United had one of the best chances of the first half when Davies tripped Butt while defending, and the referee awarded United a free-kick 23 yards from goal. Becky, who was in charge of the free-kick, kicked a moon cutlass from this position, and Toldo, who was shaken by the arc, could not save the ball, but could only watch the ball fly towards the gate behind him.

As a result, just as Toldo was about to look back at the situation, he heard a "bang", and it turned out that Beckham's kick hit the crossbar and the post just at the junction and bounced off the bottom line, Fiorentina's goal kick.

The Fiorentina players who escaped the catastrophe were in a cold sweat, knowing the power of Beckham's free kicks, they were careful in the following game time, and did not easily give the away team the opportunity to take set-pieces within 25 meters of the goal.

In this way, after 45 minutes of offensive and defensive battles, the two sides shook hands in the first half.

The second half was also full of sparks, with the United players continuing their onslaught in the first half, while Fiorentina responded with composure, using solid defence and sharp counter-attacks to keep the visitors from pressing down completely.

Seeing that the team and Manchester United were still deadlocked, Capello decided to make a substitution to try his luck.

In the 63rd minute, Capello replaced captain Batistuta with Cruz, and the Argentine god of war was not very lucky in this game, several threatening shots either flew off the bottom line or were saved by the opposing goalkeeper.

As a result, Cruise, who had just come on as a substitute, gave Capello a big gift.

In the 65th minute, Zambrotta sent a long diagonal pass from the right, the ball flew almost half of the pitch to the top of the United penalty area, Cruise jumped high in the middle of the box, grabbed the ball before Pallist and Schmeichel, and sent the ball into the United goal with a header near the penalty spot!

1 to 0! Fiorentina lead!
