PS: If you think this book is okay, give us a recommendation ticket, this thing doesn't cost money......
When the Fiorentina players walked into the dressing room, they all had a happy smile on their faces - this is a normal thing, no matter what the player, they will be happy to be able to take the lead in the game, especially since their opponents are Juventus, the arch-rivals from Fiorentina! This naturally boosted the excitement of the Fiorentina players.
When Fabio Capello walked into the dressing room, the Fiorentina players stopped talking to each other and instead watched the gold medal coach quietly and ready to listen to his next tactical plan.
Capello was also very pleased with the players' self-awareness, but before arranging the tactics for the second half, he still commented on the team's performance in the first half: "We played well in the first half, and if we can continue to play in this way, the victory will definitely belong to Fiorentina!" ”
'Ronnie, Filip, you played really well in the first half, especially that goal, Ronnie's cross pass was very well placed, and it was arguably the key to the team being able to take the lead in the first half. Capello first praised the team's two strikers, and then said, "Edgar, you did a good job in the first half, you did the task I assigned you, and in the second half, you must continue to maintain this momentum and continue to defend close to Zidane." ”
"That, chief." After hearing Capello's praise, Davis was a little embarrassed, "Actually, my defense against Zidane in the first half was not very good, not to mention anything else, I couldn't stop the opponent in time for the header in the first half." ”
"Edgar, what I'm asking you is to defend Zidane as best you can, and you've done a fantastic job of that." Capello duly stopped the Dutchman's behavior and said with a smile, "I don't think any player can say that Zidane can be completely blocked, after all, the French striker has the potential to become one of the most Haode players in the whole Shijie...... I agree with my boss on this point. ”
In the few months since he arrived at Fiorentina, Capello knew that there were only a few people in the club who could contain this midfielder, and his own owner was one of them.
After a brief summary of the players' performance in the first half, Capello finally got to the point: "In the next game, we will continue to stick to the tactics of the first half and counterattack with defense. Especially in the midfield, don't dwell too long with those Juventus players, after getting the ball, you must pass the ball to your teammates around you as soon as possible to prevent the opponent from counter-attacking on the spot, while continuing to maintain the speed of the counterattack in the first half, and pass the ball to Ronnie in the front as fast as possible...... Also, Alessandro, don't let up your guard against Pierrot, although this kid didn't get any decent shots in this game, he has the ability to change the trend of the game in an instant, don't take it lightly. ”
"Haode, chief." Nesta nodded obediently, signaling that she understood.
"Of course, at the beginning of the second half, we served, so you can take advantage of the opportunity line at the beginning of the game where the opponent's concentration is not enough, but don't fall in love, if you can't extend the score in five minutes, everyone has to do the tactics immediately."
"No problem, boss, you see, Juventus or something, it's not our opponent at all." Effenberg replied confidently, as if it had been Capello's previous praise for Zidane that had made the German midfielder want to compete.
Soon the fifteen-minute break passed, and the players from both sides were back on the pitch, this time with Fiorentina's turn to kick off.
After kick-off, the Fiorentina players immediately followed Capello's tactical arrangement at halftime and launched a fierce attack towards the door of Juventus!
Ronaldo passed the ball back to Effingberg, who dribbled to the left and played a beautiful one-two with Carlos, who was inserted from behind, after beating Pollini, before Deschamps came to make up for the defense, the ball passed through the gap between Montero and Blank and went straight to the Juventus goal, Inzaghi, who was successfully offside, was about to receive the ball and shoot, but Peruzzi, who attacked in time, intercepted the pass in front of Inzaghi and defused the crisis.
In the 48th minute, Robert Carlos forced a breakthrough of Pollini's defense on the left side and directly picked up his left foot and volleyed vigorously, the ball drew an arc and flew towards the goal, Peruzzi arrived in time and tried his best to lift the ball off the bottom line, a corner kick.
Fiorentina then had another shot on goal from the edge of the box, and Effenberg's shot from the edge of the box after receiving a tactical corner kick from Tomasi was confiscated by Peruzzi - the Fiorentina players were quite threatening in this period, but Peruzzi's performance was also quite solid and did not give the purple lily the slightest chance.
After an attack, the Fiorentina players, who had a bit of a decline in physical fitness, were a little slower when they returned to the defense, after all, even the attack was a great physical drain on the players, and Juventus's previous attacking rhythm was quite slow, which greatly reduced the vigilance of the players.
Peruzzi watched the front court while confiscating the ball, then straightened up and ran two steps forward, throwing the ball straight to Di Livio on the left.
Di Livio's possession of the ball did not make the Fiorentina players feel at risk, after all, the ball is still in Juventus' backfield and they have plenty of time to drop back and organise their defence.
Di Livio did not choose to pass forward or break through himself, but crossed the ball to Jugovic in the middle, a move that prevented Fiorentina's players from retreating faster - because Di Livio's move seemed to Juventus still intending to play steadily.
But when the ball flew to the feet of Jugovic, Juventus's offensive rhythm began to speed up suddenly!
After receiving the ball, Jugovic dribbled forward a few meters, and after attracting the attention of Tomasi and Di Biagio, he raised his foot to distribute the ball to Pollini on the right, who rarely participated in an attack, and did not choose to move forward with the ball in the face of Carlos, who returned to the defense, but passed the ball to Pierrot, who retreated.
The Prince of the Bianconeri took the ball in the middle circle of the court and turned around, and then without looking, he directly picked the ball to the left side!
And it was Zidane, the core of Juventus' midfield, who received the ball!
Zidane is not known for his speed, but this time he is running, and his movements can be said to be lightning fast!
Davis, who was defending him closely, was got rid of Zidane almost instantly, and then Zidane, who stepped forward, unloaded the ball with an extremely beautiful outside instep stoppage, and this stoppage action hardly had any impact on Zidane's speed! Then, Zidane rushed into the Fiorentina penalty area with the ball!
After bursting into the penalty area, Zidane faced the attacking Toldo and the defending Nesta, he dunked the ball to the left, cleverly avoided the encirclement formed by Toldo and Nesta, and also flashed a shot angle.
Zidane naturally won't let go of this good opportunity to score, and directly pushed the ball into the near corner of the goal with his left foot!
Although Toldo desperately pounced on his right side, Zidane's shot was tricky enough that Toldor could only watch the ball fly into his own goal!
1-1, Zidane's goal helped Juventus equalize!
