PS1: Continue to ask for recommendation votes here, free books don't need to spend money, and it should be okay to give more recommendation votes, right? Thank you here~

PS2: Let's talk about the book friend group here, the group number is three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine, nine, verifies that the answer is NTR knight, well, that's it.

Although it is true that Florence is much stronger than Lens in terms of book strength, it is really beyond many people's expectations that Purple Lily won so easily. To be able to make a team of Lens's level only have four shots on goal in the whole game, and not even a single shot in the goal, how rebellious is Fiorentina's strength! This is the first thought that comes to the minds of most fans who have watched the whole game.

Although Lens does not have any particularly outstanding stars, and the most famous players in his squad are Cameroon international Rigobert Song and Senegal midfielder Diop, but being able to finish second in Ligue 1 surrounded by domestic powerhouses such as Monaco, Lyon, Paris Saint-Germain and Auxerre is enough to prove Lens's quality.

However, it is such a team that has not even had room to fight back and was solved by Fiorentina with three strikes and five divisions, and such a result makes people have to re-examine the true strength of Fiorentina, which is considered by many media and experts to be "serious blood loss".

After all, from the eyes of these people, it is naturally completely obvious that if it weren't for the fact that after the three-goal lead, Fiorentina's side slowed down its offensive in the consideration of retaining physical strength to prepare for the league, and no longer chased after Lens, who was already completely stunned, and this game would not have ended 3-0 at all.

If Fiorentina's effortless win at home to Lens surprised many media and pundits in Ligue 1, the result of the other match that ended at the same time shocked everyone.

It turned out that just when Fiorentina comprehensively suppressed Lens at both offensive and defensive ends and beat this Ligue 1 team to the ground, in the other group game of Group G, Bayern Munich led by Heathfield was overturned by the La Liga powerhouse Deportivo La Coruna at its home stadium, that is, the Munich Olympic Stadium!

In the face of the only top club in German football, Super Laco, who has a strong team of players such as Belleron, De Jaminha, Mackay, and Capdevilla, showed its sharp fangs. Dutch striker Roy Mackay scored twice in the first half to help Deportivo La Coruna build an early two-goal lead, while Bayern stubbornly tied the score with a goal each from Elber and Salihamidzic at the start of the second half, but the surging Mackay took Belleron's high lob ball in the 77th minute and fired a low shot through Kahn's goal and the goal behind him to seal the win!

Although the Bayern players had a number of equalisers in the ensuing period, they failed to capitalise on them and were almost extended by a quick counter-attack. In this way, Bayern Munich, who have well-known stars such as Elber, Frings and Kahn, suffered an embarrassing defeat in their Champions League opener to Deportivo La Coruna.

It was this match that made fans begin to face up to the strength of Deportivo La Coruna for the first time. Prior to this, although Deportivo La Liga won the 99-00 season and finished runners-up in the league in the next two seasons, its brilliance was almost completely overshadowed by teams such as Valencia and Real Madrid, who had excellent performances in the Champions League, giving the impression of an insider's war and an outsider's play.

And now, when it is discovered that Deportivo can beat Bayern Munich in a head-to-head matchup, this result naturally attracts a lot of attention: does Deportivo really have the strength to wrestle with the top giants, or is Bayern Munich, who lost Rui Costa this summer, a waste?

So, after this match, Deportivo La Coruna finally made a name for themselves in Europe, and the name "Super Laco" finally went out of Spain and began to be known to fans outside of Spain. And Roy Mackay, who scored a hat-trick in the game and almost single-handedly disgraced Bayern, became famous with this fight and got the attention of many big clubs.

Predictably, if Mackay can perform consistently for the remainder of the season, the grassroots striker is likely to put on a show next summer.

Compared with the famous Deportivo La Coruna, Bayern Munich, who suffered a defeat in the first game of the Champions Cup, also looked very uncalm, but unlike Laco, it was different. For the players, if they want to be embarrassed by the loss of this match, they can only train hard and wait for the second leg against Deportivo La Coruna; For head coach Heathfield, the defeat caused him to experience a crisis of confidence, and many Bayern fans and pro-Bayern media believe that he is mainly responsible for the defeat; As for Bayern general manager Hoeness, he has found a new poaching target this time, and that is Roy Mackay, who scored a hat-trick in the game.

After all, after the glory of three consecutive Bundesliga titles, Bayern Munich, where most of the main players have reached their prime, needs to add enough fresh blood to complete the renewal of the team. Otherwise, it is impossible for the shrewd Hoeness to let go of Rui Costa, the core of the team's midfield in the past few years, and bring in new players such as Frings and Deisler.

Now let's turn our attention back to Serie A, where Fiorentina have made a Champions League third round at the weekend after beating Lens in midweek to get off to a winning start in the Champions League.

With Fiorentina's opponent in this round of the league being another promoted side of Serie A this season, Heynckes once again made a rotation change to the starting line-up. Vieri and Inzaghi partnered up front, Lucio and Nesta formed the central defence, Ballack, Deco and Gattuso started at the same time, while Zivo and Sun Jihai replaced Carlos and Zambrotta at full-back. At the same time, Heynckes also sent in wide fast Marvincent to make up for Ziwo and Sun Jihai's lack of assist ability.

Compared to the star-studded Fiorentina, Reggina's starting line-up consisted of Japanese star Shunsuke Nakamura and a veteran Serie A churros, whose rich game experience and tenacious defensive style were the main magic weapons used by the promoted polo team to fight for relegation.

However, against Fiorentina, who were well-staffed and in good form at the start of the season, Reggina resisted hard in the game, but could not stop the Purple Lily's victory. After two years of experience, Vincent, who has adapted to the style of Italian football, excelled in his Serie A debut, with sharp wide breaks, well-placed crosses and commendable in-depth cuts to wreak havoc on Reggina's backline.

In the end, with two assists and a goal in the game, Vincent was voted the best player after the game, and Fiorentina also relied on Vincent's excellent performance to defeat Reggina and once again won 3-0!
