Although Fiorentina dominated the field, it was still difficult to break down Manchester United's goal - after all, the goalkeeper of Manchester United at this time was still Dane Schmeichel, and the veteran goalkeeper was quite consistent in this game, saving many shots from Fiorentina.

United's defence became the laughing stock of the public until 1999, when Kasper Schmeichel left the Red Devils, and although the quality of their defence had declined, they were generally more reliable. Unlike later, the various low-level mistakes of the four butter players of Taibie, Bosnic, Barthez, and Howard can be carved into a disc as a classic counterexample of goalkeeper teaching.

Although there is always a feeling of being a bit out of the game, the Fiorentina players who have experienced the storms of previous seasons are not in a hurry, and they are still unhurried back and forth in the midfield, mobilizing Manchester United's defense, and from time to time they will pass forward to Ronaldo to test whether the home team's defense is still solid.

In the event that the opponent intercepts the ball at this time, the Fiorentina players will immediately start pressing from all sides to interrupt the opponent's counterattack, regain the ball in their own hands, and then there will be a new round of back-to-back.

In their opinion, it should be Manchester United who is in a hurry, and Fiorentina will have a big deal to pass the ball for 90 minutes and get a draw away from home. Under the tutelage of Ranieri and Capello, the increasingly undisciplined Fiorentina players don't see anything wrong with their approach.

In front of this group of jishu "rough" Brits, the Fiorentina players have enough confidence to abuse them on jishu.

At this time, the Manchester United players were scolding Fiorentina for being despicable and shameless, and they could play so conservatively, and they couldn't see the temperament of the giants at all...... But then again, who made them really can't fight Florence at the jishu level?

After hiring Murensten and Moniz as the team's jishu director, the JISHU level of Fiorentina players is indeed rising, but the offensive passing and control system that Zhuang Mingge wants to create with Florentina characteristics has not yet been completed, but the defensive aspect has become more and more indestructible after the precipitation of Ranieri and Capello's two Italian coaches and the integration of Guferen's thoughts, forming a new defensive system.

When there is no ball, you can sacrifice the traditional Italian chain defense to control the court space and implement layers of interception, and when there is a ball at your feet, you can also use jishu to constantly reverse your feet to control the rhythm of the game, so as not to fall into the hands of the opponent, and at the same time pass forward from time to time to make a surprise attack.

Where have United players seen such an alternative defence? In the past, they were just trying to kill the game just to kill the game, and seeing Fiorentina's aggressive defense was naturally a little numb.

Cantona and others wanted to cut off the ball of the Fiorentina players and then play a counterattack, but these players on the Fiorentina field were already quite good under the tutelage of Mulensten, and the successive passes slipped the front-court players of Manchester United all over the field but couldn't grab the ball.

In the 23rd minute of the game, Fiorentina, who had been controlling the tempo of the game, finally waited for a good chance to score.

Schmeichel kicked the ball in goal, and Beckham, who received the ball, took advantage of the situation and began to attack along the right flank.

Xiaobei, who has been praised by the English media, can be said to be proud of the spring breeze recently, not only squeezing out Kanchelski and Gillespie, but also defeating the Czech Poboski who shined in the European Championship in the team competition this season, and the ultra-long-range lob goal against Wimbledon in August last year made him famous and became a well-deserved new star in English football!

Just as Beckham looked up to observe the running position of Cole and Cantona, intending to let Florence see his stunt Full Moon Scimitar, and also let out a good breath of evil that was suppressed by the other party, a purple figure suddenly rushed over and cut off the ball at his feet in an instant!

"It's Edgar Davis! The Dutch boars once again showed the fans his excellent midfield coverage, cutting off David Beckham's feet and Fiorentina counter-attacking! ”

Beckham did not stand still and frustrated after conceding the goal, but immediately launched a counter-attack on the spot, which is also part of Ferguson's tactics specially created for Manchester United.

However, Davies was not a fool either, as he did not stick to the ball after breaking it, but immediately passed it horizontally to Redondo, one of the midfield duos.

The Argentine midfielder did not stop moving forward while observing the movement of his teammates, first flicked past Scholes, who had returned to the defense, and then played a one-two with Carlos, who was inserted on the left side, to clean up Beckham, who had re-pounced on the defense, and then accelerated to sprint with the ball, and suddenly advanced to within 30 meters of Manchester United's goal.

As Redondo advanced, his teammates began to move their positions: Carlos raced forward down the left, his forward cut drawing the attention of Gary Neville and David Beckham; Effenberg, who was standing directly in front of Redondo, moved sideways and took Roy Keane away; Davies, on the other hand, roamed around Redondo's left front, and his movement forced Scholes to devote some of his energy to defending Redondo's passes, so he couldn't rush forward to press the opponent in the first place.

As a result, at this moment, almost all of Manchester United's midfielders were attracted by the Fiorentina players, and no one came up to intercept the Argentine defender.

Redondo naturally didn't waste this opportunity, pretending to distribute the ball to Carlos on the left, and then with a flick of his left ankle, he picked the ball directly into the Manchester United defence!

The target is behind David May and Paralist!

The ball drew an arc in the air, and then fell directly to the right of the penalty area, and Ronaldo, who saw Redondo's pass, immediately sped up to shake off the bulky Pallist, raised his right foot and stopped the ball steadily!

Paris and David May tried to chase back, but it would have taken them a few seconds just to turn - and by the time they did, Ronaldo would have passed the goalkeeper......

"Ronaldo! Single Knife! I only heard the narrator shout excitedly.

I saw Ronaldo, who unloaded the ball, quickly glanced at Schmeichel's position, and then slammed his right leg and shot the ball out!

Schmeichel reacted immediately, instinctively swooping into the near corner, only to surprise Ronaldo's shot that didn't come as he expected.

Tricked by the Brazilian, who wasn't shooting at all, he was passing the ball – and as soon as Schmeichel realised this, he heard the sound of the ball rubbing against the net and the referee's whistle announcing the goal valid.

Now, Schmeichel knows he doesn't have to make any more saves, and his task now is to get the ball out of the net.
