Chapter 448: Controversy Returns
PS: This is the 73000 recommended addition, the next time the addition is 76000 recommended, I hope you will support more.
After Blank's goal, Capello began to transfer his troops on the field, first replacing Davies, who received a yellow card in the game, with Tomasi, and asked him to focus on Zidane; At the same time, Capello also replaced Zambrotta, who was a little exhausted under the combined impact of Di Livio and Pexoto, with Angeloma, to strengthen the team's defense.
"Let Alessandro keep an eye on Pierrot for me, and tell the others not to foul Juventus players within 30 meters." This is what Capello said to Tomasi before he came on the field.
Capello's purpose is very simple, that is, to use Tomasi and others to strangle the few points where Juventus can control the ball on the field, so as to reduce the probability of the old woman scoring through set-pieces in the front court.
Capello's change of tactics was quite effective, because the Fiorentina players began to tighten the fence and guard their own half under Capello's instructions, easily did not foul Juventus players in the 30-meter area, and focused on players with excellent ball control such as Pierrot and Zinedine Zidane, so that Juventus received a lot of set-pieces in the front court.
In the 82nd minute, Capello made a substitution adjustment for Zuihou in this game, Vieri, who had been stumbling with Juventus' backline for most of the half, was replaced, and Kruz, who was praised as a super substitute by Fiorentina fans, got the opportunity to play.
Although there were less than ten minutes left before the end of the game, Cruise still worked diligently on the field to complete the coach's instructions: receiving the ball, responding, counter-attacking, shooting, all actions were unrelenting.
The Argentine striker's hard work and seriousness in the game soon led to a good chance to open the scoring, and just four minutes after coming on, Cruz took advantage of a marking error by Iuliano to flick his head at Carlos' cross and head the ball towards Juventus!
Cruz looked at the header he headed out, and he felt in his heart that the shot must have been there, he believed in his feelings, and looking at Peruzzi's movements, the Argentine thought that even if he could touch the ball, it would be after the ball crossed the goal line.
However, something unexpected happened, Peruzzi, who was guarding in front of the Juventus gate, scooped the ball out with his right hand after a scramble, and then threw it out with all his might!
Seeing this scene, all the players on the field focused their eyes on the referee. The Fiorentina player believed that Peruzzi had crossed the goal line before he made the save, and that Peruzzi's actions were completely deliberately interfering with the referee's decision; Juventus, on the other hand, firmly believe that Cruise's shot was successfully blocked by Peruzzi, and the Fiorentina view is unreasonable.
At that moment, a slow-motion replay on the big screen on the pitch showed unmistakable that the ball had crossed the goal line at least half a metre before Peruzzi fished it out......
Such ironclad evidence made it impossible for the Juventus players to continue to refute, so they had to stop the game and look at the referee to see what kind of penalty the brother would make.
Seeing the players stop the game and focus their eyes on him, the referee did not change his decision because of the replay, but just made a gesture to the players on the field, and the meaning could not be more obvious: Fiorentina's shot was invalid and the game continued.
The referee's expression made the Juventus players happy, but at the same time angered the Fiorentina players, and Effenberg's chatter annoyed the referee, and the German Tiger received a yellow card, which also meant that Effenberg would miss the second leg.
Seeing that the German still did not give up on his side, several Juventus players surrounded him quite tacitly and separated Effenberg from the referee, intending to let Effenberg "calm down".
However, when separating the two, Iuliano and Deschamps had some movement on their hands, pushing the German a few times. This is a hornet's nest, and Fiorentina's players naturally can't watch their vice-captain being bullied like this, especially with a traitor like Iuliano.
So, Tomasi, Di Biagio, Carlos, Stam and other players rushed over and glared angrily at the Juventus players: Why don't you try to move our people again?
When the referee saw that the smell of gunpowder on the field was so strong, his first reaction was not to calm the emotions of the players on both sides, but to ...... very decisively took out the yellow card in the pocket of his jacket and started a new round of yellow card delivery.
"Karin, I remember, this referee is from Spain, right?" Zhuang Mingge looked at Mr. Referee, who was imitating Santa Claus on the field, and asked suspiciously.
"Tony, you're right, this Mr. Flores is one of the referees that the Spanish Football Federation has focused on training, and he is very hopeful of officiating next year's Shijie Cup in France."
"No wonder this guy is reluctant to put it back in his pocket with the sign in his hand, Spanish referees are not all such virtuous, red and yellow cards are sent more often than spam text messages."
In the end, Fiorentina and Juventus drew 1-1 in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, in which Ronaldo gave the Purple Lilies the lead in the first half, and French veteran Blanc equalised for the Old Lady with a free-kick in front of the court in the second half.
Incidentally, Fiorentina's Stam, Toldo, Di Biagio and Carlos all received yellow cards in the Zuihou clash of the game, and Juventus' Didier Deschamps and Iuliano, who had made pushing and shoving maneuvers, were treated in the same way.
At the post-match press conference, a large number of reporters gathered in this lecture hall at the Alp Stadium, these people were there to see the two managers fighting off the field, hoping to dig out some fierce information from the mouths of the two.
At the beginning of the press conference, the cunning Capello did not fire at the referee's decision to the game as the majority of reporters and comrades wanted, saying that he was quite satisfied with the result of the game, and won a draw at the Alp Stadium and also scored an away goal, and Fiorentina, who was playing at home in the second leg, will occupy a lot of initiative.
However, Lippi's next speech made Capello's face darken, and the Silver Fox publicly expressed his dissatisfaction with the referee's decision in this game: "We had a chance to win this game, but unfortunately the referee blew off a good ball from Paolo (Montero), so we had to face a very difficult situation in the next game." ”
The Silver Fox's complaint immediately drew an angry counterattack from Capello: "Coach Lippi is very reasonable, if Ronaldo had run a little slower at that time, I believe that Montero would have already run to the stands as a spectator, and Ronaldo's fate may be the next Basten because of the malicious foul of this executioner." ”
The reporters present were in an uproar when they heard this, and those of them who have worked in the football circle all year round knew very well what Capello meant. The notorious Bohly's malicious foul on Basten in the Champions Cup final forced the ballet prince to announce his retirement!
Now Capello actually said that Montero is the second Boly, how can Lippi bear it? Isn't this clearly saying that he deliberately did not restrain Montero's behavior and let the Uruguayans deliberately hurt people in order to increase the chances of Juve's victory?
As a result, a bit of rhetoric unfolded in the press room of the Alp Stadium......
