Chapter 400: Fighting Bayern Again (3)
After the start of the game, Fiorentina launched an attack in the cheers of more than 40,000 fans, and now the midfield of the Purple Lily can be regarded as both offensive and defensive, Redondo, Davies and Effenberg are all players with excellent running ability, all have the ability to do switchback and run between the two penalty areas, so this midfield combination can be said to be quite comprehensive, while ensuring defensive intensity, there is no lack of creativity and offensive ability; Coupled with the fact that Fiorentina's solid backline has always been able to give the players a lot of confidence, it also allows the Fiorentina players to not have too many worries when pressing the attack.
The Bayern players who played away from home were mainly on the counterattack from the beginning of the game, and under the command of Mateus, the Bayern players constantly adjusted their defensive positions and patiently played with Fiorentina. According to Trapattoni's pre-match arrangement, as long as Fiorentina dares to take the initiative in this game, then they must not be in a hurry. When the opponent makes a mistake on his own initiative, Bayern's chance to win will come.
Although these players of the Bayern first team have a lot of fame in Germany, and they are usually bullish, there is Trapattoni, the world-famous coach, and the relationship between Matthaus, the core of the Bayern team, and the Italian coach when he played for Inter Milan is also quite good, coupled with the inherent obedience and discipline nature of most German players. In this atmosphere, it is natural that the Bayern players will not disagree with Trapattoni's tactical arrangement.
Therefore, Bayern's players did not rush to go toe-to-toe with Fiorentina at first, but based on their own half under the command of Trapattoni, relying on excellent running ability and Fiorentina players to entangle in the midfield.
Bayern's midfield's defensive ability is not bad, although Sauer in the forward midfield position is weak due to poor physical fitness, the remaining three players are not bad defensively, and the defensive range is enough to cover the entire midfield.
However, Fiorentina obviously has no intention of competing with Bayern who can run more nutritious, and they naturally have to play to their strengths and avoid their weaknesses (compared to the Germans who are all long-distance runners, Fiorentina is indeed a weakness in this regard), and constantly penetrate Bayern's half with a combination of short and long passes.
Just five minutes into the game, Djokaev received a long diagonal pass from Redondo, then used a feint to get past Babel, who was defending him, and then crossed with his feet, and the ball flew directly to Vieri, who was grabbing a point in the box!
Since the last meeting between Fiorentina and Bayern Munich, Batistuta, as the number one center forward of the Purple Lily, failed to take advantage of Helmer, so this time Helmer naturally underestimated Vieri, who claimed to be Batty's apprentice. Although the Italian outperforms him in terms of height and weight, Helmer is confident that with his vast game experience, he will be able to deal with this young rookie.
However, Helmer overlooked one point, that is, although Vieri is quite young, he can be regarded as the first batch of players introduced after Zhuang Mingge joined Fiorentina, and Vieri also made a lot of contributions to Fiorentina's treble last season, and there is absolutely no shortage of game experience.
At the same time, Vieri, who studied under Batty, also learned a lot of practical tricks from the Argentine god of war, and if Helmer still thinks that the other party is a soft persimmon that is easy to pinch, he will suffer a big loss.
Sure enough, when Helmer was about to use Liliang to press Vieri so that he couldn't jump off smoothly, the German central defender was surprised to find that the Italian center forward in front of him seemed to have a liliang in his body that was even more terrifying than Batistuta.
me, what's going on? Fiorentina's lineup is too exaggerated, how can a random player have such a strong ability? Helmer complained bitterly, but his defensive movements did not lag in the slightest, and after discovering that he could not subdue Vieri with Liliang alone, he immediately used his rich game experience to jam his position, making Vieri unable to exert his strength comfortably.
But it is clear that Helmer still underestimated Vieri, who was better than the historical Vieri after three years of training in Florence, and was more able to use his body.
Under the gaze of more than 40,000 pairs of eyes, I saw Vieri, who struggled to break free from Helmer's defense, jumped high, and Helmer quietly approached the opponent's body, trying to stop Vieri from exerting force with a hidden action, but the Italian center forward retracted a second force in his waist and abdomen at the moment before the ball flew, and forcibly raised his aerial height up again!
Vieri's move caught Helmer off guard, he didn't expect this young man to have a header no less than Klinsmann's, so he could only watch Vieri flick his head against the flying ball!
Vieri's header was fast and angled, and the ball flew directly to the far end of the goal, which directly caught Kahn standing near the goal by surprise, and although the Golden Lion King immediately made a save and took off to change the trajectory of the ball, it was too late.
“…… Gooooal! Scored! Just five minutes into the game, Fiorentina scored a goal at home! The goal was scored by Christian Vieri, who had just shone in a friendly against Denmark! The game commentator was a little confused at first, he didn't expect that the Bundesliga boss Bayern would be so easily attacked by Fiorentina, fortunately, this guy was not slow to react, and his mouth was sharp enough, after a little stunned, he immediately began to explain the game, "Let's take a look at the slow-motion replay now...... Most of the credit for this goal goes to Vieri, who almost single-handedly completed it! Through the replay, we can see that Fiorentina's attack can be said to be decent, and Helmer's defense has no obvious omissions, the only thing that we didn't expect was that Vieri would actually complete the second force in mid-air, and as a result, Helmer, who was caught off guard, was pressed by the opponent by half of his body, which led to Bayern's conceded goal. ”
Vieri took off his shirt after the goal and excitedly ran to Djokaeau, who had given him the cross, to celebrate the goal, while the Fiorentina fans in the stands sang for Vieri who opened the scoring.
For a while, Frankie Stadium was filled with laughter.
