Didier Drogba's goal was timely, not only helping Lazio close the gap between them and Fiorentina, but also boosting the morale of their players and rebuilding their confidence to win the game.
As a striker, Drogba does not have the brilliant skills of Ronaldo and Rivaldo, nor the speed of Henry and Shevchenko's scuds, and even his shooting skills and precision are hardly qualified...... Otherwise, the British media in his previous life would not have ridiculed him for "not even shooting the butt of an elephant 20 feet away".
However, it is such a rough brother who is only commendable in the eyes of people with strength and fighting spirit, but in this Italian Super Cup final, he has become Lazio's thigh that still has a glimmer of hope for the championship. I have to say that Drogba's performances in this game are enough to make him the new spiritual leader of the Blue Eagles!
However, just when Drogba was planning to repeat his old tricks after the restart, and continue to strengthen the pressing of Fiorentina's midfielders, the Ivorians were surprised to find that the Brazilian defender named Lucio on the opposite side actually ran out and followed Drogba inch by inch!
What kind of tactic is this? Leaving a centre-back out of a defensive position and running around with the opposing striker? Isn't Mourinho afraid that Lazio will seize the big empty space left by Lucio as a fuss?
"Just this change of tactics to bring down our Florence? There is a limit to looking down on people! Lucio stared at Drogba and thought to himself disdainfully, "We Fiorentina don't fall twice in the same pit, and if you want to equalize, you have to come up with more!" ”
Although Drogba's retreat pressure caused a certain amount of pressure on his side, Mourinho did not panic because of this, but was keenly aware that this was just Drogba's personal behavior, not a tactical routine set by Lazio. Therefore, the Portuguese will let Lucio keep an eye on Drogba throughout the whole process, let Nesta be responsible for the defense in the middle, and use this seemingly unreasonable redemption tactic to abolish Drogba, which has become Lazio's most dynamic point in the frontcourt!
Although Fiorentina's central defense looked much empty, the threat posed by Ronaldinho and Giuli on the wings was naturally greatly reduced when Drogba was restrained by Lucio and unable to pass the ball in time as he had just done. After all, no matter how good the timing of their choice to cut in, it would not help that their teammates could not pass the ball to their feet. And if they wait until they receive the ball before choosing to break through, Fiorentina can use the time difference to reorganize the defence and lay a trap and wait for Ronaldo to cross the net.
If Stankovic does not represent the Serbian and Montenegro national team at the Olympics, then at this time, the Serbian and Montenegro midfielder can take advantage of the gap left by Lucio's marking of Drogba, and teach the Purple Lily a profound lesson with his excellent long-range shooting, and also make Fiorentina's defensive strength not overly concentrated on Ronaldo and Giuli on the wings. Unfortunately, Fiore, who was put into the starting line-up by Roberto Mancini, was completely unaware of this, and the Italian midfielder was too obsessed with using his feet to solve problems, and he couldn't think of what he should be doing at this time.
And this is the key to Mourinho's daring to let Lucio get rid of Drogba. Because Mourinho knows that Mancini, who was born as a professional player but has not undergone much systematic training, must still have the same old ideas in this regard. For example, the striker is the main force of the goal, and the midfield is just the existence of connecting the front and back of the field, creating opportunities and protecting the defense line is their job, and scoring two long-range shots can only be regarded as a dumpling meal for the New Year. Under the influence of this kind of thinking, Mancini will certainly not consider assigning the relevant task to Fiore, who has no habit of shooting from behind, so that after Lucio and Drogba withdraw from the penalty area, no one in Lazio will be able to seize the gap exposed in the Fiorentina back line and turn it into a goal!
Again, even if it is often joked that on the pitch, the role of the head coach is only to pray to God that his players can play normally and never drop the chain, but to tell the truth, if there is no good enough head coach to strategize, it is absolutely impossible to achieve satisfactory results or even championship trophies with the free play and personal ability of the players alone.
At this point, the final ending of Real Madrid in the first phase of Galaxy Battleship is very convincing. After sacking the meritorious coach Bosque, Florentino hired a number of managers including Queiroz and Luxemborg in the following three seasons, but the result was that Real Madrid, with a group of superstars, was suppressed by opponents such as Valencia and Barcelona in the league, and even dreamed of eight years in the European competition, and the Galaxy battleship that Lafayette spent a lot of money to build became a complete joke.
The same is true of the current Lazio, although Mancini has countless good cards in his hands, Ronaldo, Deco, Gyuli, Robben and others are all first-class stars with great prestige in European football, but due to the manager's rigidity and inflexibility in the arrangement, the Blue Eagle was suppressed by Fiorentina everywhere in this Italian Super Cup final, and they couldn't play their due strength at all!
"It seems that I still need to improve a lot." Seeing the team being pressed on the pitch by Fiorentina, who lost Pirlo, and could only occasionally play a few counter-attacking performances under the leadership of Drogba, Mancini couldn't help but sigh. Through this game, he has been smooth sailing since his debut, and he finally understood the gap between himself and Mourinho in terms of coaching level, and decided to improve his technical and tactical literacy this season, and not let Lazio always be controlled everywhere in the game because of him.
In this way, with a small adjustment made by Mourinho in tactics, Lazio, whose attack was blocked, was once again at a disadvantage on the field. This time, the Blue Eagles couldn't turn around until the end of the game, watching the Fiorentina players lift their first trophy of the new season after the game!
