Chapter 66: The Fifth Round

Chapter 66: The Fifth Round

Challenge Inter Milan's seventeen-game winning streak created last season.

Even though Florence has never chanted this slogan in front of the media, there is no doubt that Florence will become the target of public criticism, and there is no way to change it.

Although the football game pays attention to fair competition, for a league, various interest disputes will always be unclear. It was they who shouted that if they wanted to create a new winning streak this season, there might be someone escorting them, but for Florence, that would be different.

When is it their turn to be so arrogant in Serie A!

It may not be obvious at the beginning, but once those strong teams see that Fiorentina has become a force, it is not certain that Fiorentina will face siege and interception at that time.

In the fifth round of the league, Fiorentina will face the league title contender Roma at home. Although the Red Wolves are not in the interest circle of the top three in the north, their desire for the championship will definitely stimulate their fighting spirit to stop Fiorentina. .

The day before the game, all the top three players from the north appeared on the stage. AC Milan, which had been unbeaten for three consecutive rounds, visited Palermo. Two losses.

During the game, Palermo striker Amauli assisted Diana to score after a handball stop in the penalty area of ​​AC Milan, which became the biggest controversy of the game and was also considered a turning point of the game.

At the press conference after the game, Ancelotti first affirmed AC Milan's performance when facing reporters' questions. The team has gone through the difficult period of the first few games, the first hour of the game, our performance was perfect, very balanced between offense and defense, I saw a high level of AC Milan, I can't ask for more Well, but then the referee's misjudgment brought the game to a turning point and changed the whole outcome."

"We need the referees to be more cautious, not just for us, but for the whole game, Amaury jumped up and stopped the ball with his arm, which in my opinion was a clear foul, but the referee turned a blind eye, which made me Very angry, we played a good? Great game. We played positively throughout the game, played beautiful football, our own football, we have speed, we have the desire to win, and Gilardino played very well today Okay, but now we have to go home with regrets, but I'm more determined to win than ever."

Galliani and Ancelotti share the same opinion: "The team played very well, created a lot of chances, Seedorf and Pirlo hit the woodwork twice, the other side had two saves on the line, the draw It is already a very unfortunate result, let alone a loss. This result is not satisfactory. There are our mistakes and the referee's mistakes. The first goal is undoubtedly a misjudgment. Diana's position is offside. And Amaury stopped the ball with his hand. We should not have failed, we would have won if the referee hadn't judged the goal to be valid, we didn't understand the referee's decision, and hope that the misjudgment against us should stop."

Talking about the future, Galliani said: "The table does not worry me, the team has the strength to catch up, the players performed well, today should not fail, remember that we are the defending champions of Europe, we have won this season. We won the UEFA Super Cup and will try to win the Club World Cup, so I believe we can show even stronger motivation and achieve better results."

AC Milan expressed dissatisfaction with the referee's misjudgment, but although the referee's misjudgment did become a turning point in the game, AC Milan had to blame itself, because there were a lot of opportunities slipping away from the hands during the game. Scoring the second goal "killed" the game, will the game still have this result?

Some people may complain about luck. Indeed, Seedorf and Pirlo hit the ball on the same position on the crossbar successively. Palermo's defender made two saves on the goal line. A one-on-one opportunity, but it's not entirely by chance that those opportunities come close over and over again.

Gilardino, who continued to score no goals, may become the target of media criticism again after the game, but in fact, this embarrassing phenomenon in the league does not belong to Gilardino alone, but to the entire AC Milan forward line.

AC Milan's scorer list, the first is Kaka, the second is Seedorf, in addition Ambrosini and Nesta have goals, while Inzaghi and Gilardino are blank, Milan's Where are the forwards?

Inzaghi actually scored a lot this season, but the goals came from the Berlusconi Cup, the Super Cup and the European Champions Cup. In the league, Pippo has not "broke his fast". This is not just Gilardino alone. problem.

Before the game, Ancelotti also emphasized the benefits of the "Christmas tree". He said: "Playing double forwards, midfielders will not be so active and determined."

But judging from the data, it is precisely this "Christmas tree" that transfers the striker's goal to the two front midfielders, but using the front midfielder as the main goal is equivalent to pulling the team's attack line back 10 meters. Undoubtedly, it made the offense more difficult. Seedorf and Pirlo's long-range shots hit the lintel really close to the goal, but it was not an absolute chance through cooperation. In other words, Seedorf's arc pocketed the back corner, and Pirlo It is already quite good to be able to play like this. If a team can only rely on the world wave to score goals, then it means that there is really a problem with the team's attack line.

Going back to the "Christmas tree" formation, this formation has won every battle in the European battlefield. That is because the European war is relatively open. Except for a few teams, no one is willing to play the "iron barrel formation" behind closed doors. Inzaghi often plays as a single striker. You can still find opportunities, but in the league, it is completely different. Every team knows how to play iron barrels. To deal with AC Milan, the forwards at the top bear the brunt of the crowd. If it is a double forward, the two forwards can still open up space for each other, and a single forward can only rely on the forward to open up space for the front midfielder and make sacrifices.

Regardless of whether Ancelotti really prefers the "Christmas tree", he has no choice now, because AC Milan has only two forwards available. Before the start of the season, Ronaldo was injured again after a short comeback. Pato has a time limit to play, but it will have to wait until January next year. Under such circumstances, the team has to deal with the third-line battle. Ancelotti must consider rotation, and using the "Christmas tree" is the only possibility of rotation. However Now the "Christmas tree" can't be rotated, because Kaka and Seedorf also need to rest, and the teenager Gourcuff can't afford to be the leader for the time being.

In fact, the root of the disaster had already been planted in the summer. The club knows better than anyone else how Ronaldo's body is and whether he is prone to injury. If this is the case, why not buy another striker?

Moggi blamed Juventus for selling Zarajeta, citing: "Who has only four strikers now?"

But AC Milan had only three strikers in the first half of the season, and they had to deal with the European Champions Cup more than Juventus. In fact, AC Milan should thank their luck. Inzaghi, who is usually easy to get injured, has not been injured until now. Otherwise, The situation became even more difficult to deal with.

There are many reasons for the problem. A misjudgment may cover up a lot. It is impossible for a team to play well with only one coach leading a group of players. It is time for the club to reflect.

The mistakes caused by AC Milan's hesitation in the transfer market in 2006 still affect the team. Gan, the vacancy left may be even more difficult to fill.

Whenever AC Milan's striker doesn't score, people will think of Degan. Looking at Degan's madness in Fiorentina, Galliani feels sad. As for what Ancelotti thinks, it is even more impressive Unpredictable.

But one thing is for sure, if it weren't for Kaka's big explosion last season and the Champions League trophy, I'm afraid Ancelotti would have left long ago.

One trick, eat all over the world!

Ancelotti felt good about himself that his team was capable of all miracles.

But an unavoidable problem is that all the energy of the AC Milan senior team has already been consumed, but looking at the supplementary situation of AC Milan in the past two seasons, it is basically equal to zero. I bought an Olivier last season La, after a year of playing, he was sent back to Spain. Emerson, who was introduced for free this season, has not yet shown his strength.

As for many positions that need to be strengthened, up to now, AC Milan has not seen any action. He calmed down. In the first four rounds of competition, Dida was the goalkeeper with the lowest rating among the goalkeepers who played four games in each team, but Karachi who replaced him was even worse.

It should be said that AC Milan is still much stronger than Palermo in terms of overall strength. The control of the situation, as well as the good condition of Karadze and Nesta, did not put Karachi under too many tests. Karachi is lucky. Yes, when Dida is in front of the goal, AC Milan's goal is always in turmoil. Dida makes some wonderful saves every game while making mistakes, but what about Karachi?

Often when he stands in front of the goal, the ball always flies high and sideways from around the goal frame, or the opponent rarely gets a chance to shoot. Some people analyze that this is Karachi's goal. AC Milan's defenders are more cautious because they are not at ease with him. The reason for the more concentrated energy, and whether it is specifically the reason, is not known.

But luck cannot always be accompanied by one person. Although Dida has long since lost the courage of the past, the Brazilian has made wonderful saves every game, but Karachi has no chance to perform like this.

The unsatisfactory goalkeeper position is just one of many problems, and AC Milan's poor record cannot put all the responsibility on one person.

AC Milan's biggest problem now is that they can't grasp the key points of victory, and Ancelotti's use of troops is the key.

In all of Europe, AC Milan is the team with the oldest average age, which will undoubtedly cause physical problems, especially when there are too many consecutive games at the beginning of the season.

In the last month, AC Milan has played five league games, one Champions League game and one UEFA Super Cup. The Chinese football team also participated in two national team games.

And how many players did Ancelotti actually use?

If you don't count Simic, Cafu and others who are purely time-consuming, Ancelotti uses 12 to 13 players.

Of the 11 players in the main force, 10 are certain. Only Gilardino and Inzaghi are in rotation. Among the substitutes, only Brocchi and Emerson have a real chance to play. As for Bonera, Gourcuff and France Valli is basically playing soy sauce. If Dida hadn't been injured, I'm afraid it wouldn't be Karachi's turn to get the whole game time this round.

It is Ancelotti's habit not to like rotation. Except before the Champions League and after the national team game, Ancelotti gave up Pirlo and Kaka, which is regarded as a rotation system. In other games, the main players who can play will play.

The fixed lineup and style of play are the guarantee of this team's ornamental style of play. After all, the cooperation of Seedorf's goal in this round cannot be completed by random lineup.

However, the result of the intensive competition of the main force is that due to the concentrated schedule, it is easy to cause a gap in physical fitness in the second half of the game, and various mistakes follow one after another, unable to control the victory foundation laid in the first half.

Football is no longer a game that can be handled by eleven people. Fiorentina is now recognized as a strong team, but apart from Digan and Frey, it is difficult for people to say who is the main force and who is the substitute. Basically, after a season, the regular players The playing time can be guaranteed, which is why the atmosphere in the Fiorentina team has always been very good.

Apparently, AC Milan didn't realize this point. There are always more than a dozen players in the game. After squandering opportunities and declining physical fitness, it is difficult for AC Milan not to lose this round.

In order to quickly reverse the unfavorable situation in the league, Ancelotti has to count on the more cards in his hand, the better. Of course, he needs to change his thinking and learn to rotate.

For example, the French teenager Gourcuff, who had high hopes at the beginning, was cheered when he first arrived in Milan, but in the last few games, people have not seen Gourcuff. After the performance, Ancelotti has decided to put the Frenchman behind the two veteran players, Brocchi and Emerson, and has become the last substitute in AC Milan's midfield.

Judging from AC Milan's lineup configuration, Gourcuff's situation is really embarrassing, because he not only has to compete with the midfielders, but also races against time. Once Ronaldo comes back, Pato can play, and AC Milan will return to two forwards This style of play is bound to remove a midfielder, and Gourcuff's position has to be ranked one back.

In fact, everyone recognizes Gourcuff's potential. When he just joined, Berlusconi also took the initiative to put forward the suggestion of "using Gourcuff and Kaka two talented players to form a double midfielder". Bay also rarely recognized the "Christmas tree", and Kaka described Gourcuff as "he is by my side, just like Messi by Ronaldinho's side", but now look, Messi and Gourcuff are rapidly Go in both directions.

There are psychological problems in this. Gurcuff is too introverted and never willing to express his inner thoughts, but the bigger problem is still at the technical level. After coming to AC Milan, Ancelotti did not give With Gourcuff's accurate positioning, after more than a year, the Frenchman has played every position in the midfield, and Kaka has stood in the position of attacking midfielder on the first day of joining AC Milan. foot.

Gourcuff's skills have not yet been finalized. He has many strengths, but he also has limitations. He has excellent small skills on the spot, strong ball control and physical confrontation skills, can shoot from long distances, and has outstanding physical strength. The disadvantage is that he lacks the ability to move forward. Too obsessed with small skills at the feet and neglected the overall situation, there are some problems with the strength of the pass, etc. Such a player is very malleable, and the disadvantage is not that it cannot be changed, but the requirements of each position are different. Gourcuff has never been regarded as a A winger, an attacking midfielder, a defensive midfielder, or a central midfielder have been trained separately, but they wander between various positions, like a patch.

It cannot be said that Ancelotti is useless, but he knows people but is not good at tasks.

AC Milan lost, but their city rival Inter Milan ushered in a victory. This may make the red and black even more embarrassing, because even though the blue and black also face some problems, they can win.

"Ibrahimovic, crazy goal!"

Gazzetta dello Sport has once again been conquered by the Swedes. Indeed, Ibrahimovic's goal against Sampdoria can make all football lovers crazy.

When the game progressed to the forty-ninth minute, after the Inter Milan midfielder passed several times, the football came to Ibrahimovic's feet. The moment he took the ball, the defensive player on the right immediately posted it. A defender stepped forward to double-team from the front. The Swede turned half his body and leaned against the one on the right. He just stopped the ball on his toes and seemed to have lost control. When the other two defenders rushed to steal the ball, Ibrahi Unbelievably, Movic swung the outer instep of his right foot in the opposite direction. With one movement, all three defenders were thrown away. Facing the attacking goalkeeper without any extra adjustments, he volleyed directly into the net with his left foot. The whole Meazza was boiling!

This is a goal purely belonging to Ibrahimovic, completely relying on the strength of one person to completely destroy the entire defense line from the front. There are only a handful of such players in the world.

No wonder Moratti replaced the legendary Mazzola with Ibrahimovic when selecting the best team in Inter Milan history. Mancini also admitted: "In order to play a good game, Inter Milan will always need two players to reach the best condition. ."

The two players mentioned by Mancini are Ibrahimovic and Vieira!

After the start of this season, Ibrahimovic's soul status in Inter Milan has become more obvious. In the first five rounds of the league, Inter Milan scored a long time, of which Ibrahimovic scored six goals and assisted twice. Tania's first ball had little to do with him.

One person participated in nearly 90% of the goals, and six individual goals directly brought the team seven out of eleven points. Even Vieri and Adriano in the past did not have such terrifying efficiency.

In fact, Ibrahimovic's performance on the field is not as consistent as the data. Gazzetta dello Sport pointed out that Ibrahimovic "seemed to disappear" for most of the first half against Sampdoria.

Figo's first start made Inter Milan's offensive after the opening mostly pass through the Portuguese. Zlatan Ibrahimovic did not show any effect, and the cooperation with Crespo, who has rarely played recently, was somewhat unfamiliar.

But the spark of genius can be ignited in an instant. In the subsequent games, Ibrahimovic's bigger the better. A very crisp goal opened the door to victory for Inter Milan.

Most of the credit for this goal should be thanks to Crespo. It was the Argentine's active movement that took away the two defenders. Ibrahimovic got enough space after turning around.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored two goals in this field, and the final shot was not difficult, but there is one thing that is surprising. These two clean shots were completed with his left foot!

The Swede is more accustomed to using his right foot, and all the first four goals this season were completed with his right foot, but the left foot shot in this game is not inferior, indicating that the comprehensiveness of Ibrahimovic's shooting skills is still on the rise. His potential has not yet fully exploded, and a striker with excellent skills and balanced left and right feet will be more difficult to guard against.

Mancini said not long ago that Ibrahimovic deserved the Golden Globe Award. After the game, he talked about this issue again: "Ibrahimovic is sprinting for the Golden Globe Award, although usually those who win the award need to win the Champions League. To win the championship, but he still has time, and he played well enough."

If Ibrahimovic can maintain the state of recent rounds for a long time, there is indeed hope for the Golden Globe in the future.

In addition to two perfect goals, Zlatan Ibrahimovic exposed his inherent problems in this game. In the second half, he deliberately kicked the ball to the opponent under the referee's nose, and received a yellow card for no reason. The shortcomings of character It may hinder the development of the Swede to greater achievements, but in any case, Mancini now has the most perfect striker and can play "the most perfect game" for him.

Inter Milan won the game, and Juventus also beat the underdog Reggina 4-0 at home. In the game, except for Trezeguet who scored goals habitually, the remaining three players scored their first goals in the new season. Except for Rota, Salihamidzic and Paladino are both personal Serie A goals.

With his outstanding performance in one season, Lerothale was brought to Juventus by Moggi at a high price, but the subsequent dissatisfaction made this deal one of the three most regrettable by Moggi. , Lerothale regained some chances to play. In this game, Lerothale, who replaced the injured Andrade, used a corner kick to open the scoring for the team and repaid Ranieri's trust.

Like Inter Milan and AC Milan, Juventus is also facing injuries, especially Camoranehi's injury caused Ranieri a very headache. The problem of wing attack has not been properly resolved. Noche Nocerino worked very hard, and he had a good offensive and defensive balance, but he lacked distinctive characteristics and the ability to break through the flanks. When he was in Atlanta, it has been proved that Nocerino is more suitable as a destroyer in the middle, and as the captain of the commando. The winger is really not his suitable position.

Nedved is already in the twilight of his career, and the 35-year-old Czech can no longer dominate Juventus's entire offense as he did back then.

Playing against Reggina, Ranieri let Salihamidzic, who has returned from injury, replace Nedved as the left forward. At the beginning of the second half, Salihamidichili took advantage of a corner kick and scored his first goal in Serie A.

Salihamidzic was called the angel wing of Bosnia and Herzegovina by the fans when he was at Bayern. He can play four positions on the left and right. When Kamoraneshi was still in bed, Salihamidzic could hold up Juve's wing attack, this discovery made Ranieri more happy than Bosnia's goal.

In addition to Salihamidzic's first goal, Paladino's performance also made Ranieri feel gratified. As the main striker of the Italian Olympic team, Paladino is also considered young and famous, especially in Serie B. One year, Paladino occupied half of the main striker position in Juventus, and Paladino scored 8 goals in the entire Serie B.

When Trezeguet had a bad relationship with the team, Paladino was designated as Trezeguet's successor, but Paladino, who is 182 tall, is not a standard center forward in terms of technical characteristics , unable to become a fulcrum in the frontcourt of Juventus' offensive system, but his offensive ability with the ball is stronger than Trezeguet.

In the last round against Roma, Paladino played as a substitute and performed very actively on the court. However, Paladino, who got the chance to start this game, still showed a good competitive state and scored a ball.

Italian media had previously reported that Juventus hoped to exchange Gilardino with Palladino plus 12 million euros, but now that Juventus sees the state of the two, considering the age and price difference, Juventus should cancel this idea , Another deal about Paladino is to exchange Fiorentina's Ujfalusi, but seeing Paladino's goals and performance on the field, Ranieri probably will not be willing to use Italy to exchange for future strikers Thirty-year-old defender.

At the beginning of the season, when talking about Juventus, although some people included it in the ranks of competing for the league championship this season, in fact, more people still think that Juventus can reach the next stage. The European competition of the season has been a success.

But after the fifth round of the league, people were surprised to find that Juventus was still in the first group, and Ranieri, as the head coach, contributed a lot to achieving such results.

Ranieri is dubbed the title of "Tinker" in international football. The so-called tinkerer is because Ranieri likes and is good at making some frequent small-scale adjustments to the lineup. The characteristics of his own tinkerer are brought to the extreme.

Claudio Ranieri rotated six players in the starting lineup. He had just played an away game with Roma in the last round, so Ranieri used Reggina as an underdog to perform a team rotation and test some of his own substitutes. It turned out that everything All were successful.

Three main competitors, two wins and one loss, Florence will start a firefight with direct rival Rome in this round of competition.

Previously, Roma and Fiorentina remained unbeaten before the game. In the last round of Roma's draw, Fiorentina took the opportunity to open up the gap of two points. In this direct face-to-face contest, the goal of Roma coach Spalletti is to win and start again. Take back the advantage.

However, in this game, Roma is also facing a difficult situation. The team's top star Totti has a thigh injury and is absent. Degan's former teammate Cassetti and midfielder Perotta also issued exemption cards. Spalletti can only be passive. The rotation starting lineup, Giuly returned to the lineup, Vucinic served as the lone striker, and the former Fiorentina player Gamberini will face his old club.

Fiorentina has no such worries at all. Except for Cavinaghi who suffered from the flu before the game and was absent, Prandelli sent the strongest lineup. , Ujfalusi, Thiago Silva, Abate, three midfielders Mota, Ledesma and Arteta in the midfield, Montolivo in the midfield, Digan partner Mutu in the striker .

After the start of the game, the Fiorentina players seemed a little too excited. When Montolivo stopped the ball, he made a mistake and was cut off by the opponent. He counterattacked directly. Vucinic passed the ball to the left side of the penalty area. Ninny's header goes wide of the near post.

After being attacked by the opponent once, Prandelli hurried to the sidelines and asked the players to calm down and slow down the rhythm a little. Fiorentina played their better pass and catch tactics again, and Ledesma made a pass from the right , Mutu missed the header in front of the goal.

Then Giuly made a direct pass, Vucinic faced Frey who was attacking, and shoveled a shot. After the football was in the center post, it popped out of the baseline.

After that, Arteta sent a through ball in the middle. After Digan received the ball, he did not kick his foot hastily.

After Arteta moved to Fiorentina, although he didn't get as many opportunities as Modric, he showed his value in several appearances.

On the court, Arteta has never been the kind of person who likes to make public. It is often difficult for people to find his existence after a game, but even in the ordinary, Arteta can always show his extraordinary place.

He is obviously better than other Fiorentina midfielders in his control of the rhythm of the game. Although he is not obvious and does not have the wonderful goals of Modric, as long as he plays, he will always be in the Fiorentina team. The most active one.

The pass just now showed his ability to the fullest. When he received the ball, two Roma players rushed over. If the pass is early, it is easy to be intercepted by the opponent. If the pass is late, the passing route will be lost.

Arteta seized the opportunity just right, with a through ball, went directly through the cracks, and passed to Digan's feet, but it was a pity that Montolivo's subsequent shot missed a few centimeters and failed. Help the team get ahead.

But even so, there was still applause in the stands of the Frakki Stadium.

Judging from the 15 minutes after the start of the game, although the offensive was 50-50, Fiorentina's offense played smoothly, and the pressure on the defense was not too great. Basically, in such a situation, the game will gradually Fall into the grasp of Florence.

But there is an exception to everything. Fiorentina, who just missed a good chance to score, was punished quickly. When the game reached the 20th minute, Roma suddenly accelerated the offensive rhythm. Giuly made a cross from the right, and Mancini Jr. Exquisite lob with his right foot in front of the goal!

Roma leads 1:0.

The city gate was breached, and Frey was also a little dumbfounded. The moment Giuly passed the ball just now, he had already judged the landing point of the football, and was ready to block the ball, but he did not expect that Mancini did not wait for the ball in place , but took the initiative to greet him, and even came with such a lob shot.

The score is behind!

After the start of the new season, Fiorentina was behind their opponents at home for the first time.

Of course, Fiorentina is no longer the same as before. The age structure of the team is constantly getting younger, and even has the title of Young Guards, but the team's performance on the court appears to be more mature.

One goal behind, it will not let Florence mess up.

In the next game, under the leadership of Degan, the Fiorentina team played more oppressively. In the 23rd minute, Roma's defense made a mistake. After Montolivo got the ball, a long shot missed the right post. .

One minute later, Fiorentina's midfielder intercepted the ball, and it was Arteta's through ball, which was passed directly to the right side of the penalty area. Mutu pushed and shot, which was blocked by Roma goalkeeper Doni. Montolivo took a corner kick from the left , the former Fiorentina player Gamberini rushed ahead of the team's goalkeeper Doni to make a clearance, but accidentally passed the ball to Degan. Faced with such an opportunity, Degan certainly would not miss it. His left foot volleyed into the upper right corner, 1:1.

Immediately after Degan scored a goal, he roared and rushed to the sidelines. The Fiorentina fans in the stands of the Volacchi Stadium were already jubilant, and the huge banner once again lit up: Thank you Degan! 135!

Gamberini, who made a serious mistake, stood in a daze and looked at the Fiorentina players who were celebrating enthusiastically. He couldn't help feeling a little lost. Last season, he was one of those people.

For his original choice, Gamberini has no regrets. People go to high places, but they just switch to Rome. Whether they go to high places or go to low places is unknown.

However, in Rome, Gamberini got the main position he wanted, but after five rounds of the league, there will be an Italian Super Cup and a UEFA Champions League group match. His performance can only be described as quite satisfactory, not amazing at all. , At present, some people in the team are already questioning the way Spalletti employs people. In addition, Mex is about to return from injury, and perhaps his main position will not be stable.

The score was equalized, and the Roma team also began to strengthen their offensive. In the 30th minute, De Rossi shot with his right foot from 35 meters in front of the goal, but the angle was too positive and was shot by Frey.

Immediately afterwards, Taddei shot obliquely with his left foot, and Frey blocked Rome's shot again.

While resisting the Roma counterattack, Fiorentina is also waiting for an opportunity to counterattack. In the 32nd minute, Mutu's right-footed shot was blocked by Cicinho with his body. Montolivo took a corner kick from the right and Mutu volleyed. Exit to the right of the door.

In the 36th minute, Fiorentina took a corner kick from the left side, and Degan's header hit the goal, but goalkeeper Doni miraculously resolved it with his fingertips.

In the 37th minute, Roma played a beautiful counterattack. Mancini made a direct pass, and Aquilani gave it to Giuly on the right. Giuly scored with his right foot from inside the penalty area and scored from a close angle. Roma surpassed again 2:1.

Being scored by Roma again, Prandelli was also a little helpless, because Roma's two goals cannot be called absolute chances, basically they are the advance of the shooter's own ability, but it is just these two chances , brought two goals for Roma.

At the end of the first half, Roma still maintained a one-goal lead. In the second half, the two teams switched sides and fought again. Prand used Modric to replace Motta, who performed poorly in the first half, to increase the control of the midfield.

In the 47th minute, Modric, who had just come off the bench, found a good chance to score, but unfortunately, after receiving a pass from Arteta, he pushed a shot in the penalty area and went slightly wide.

In the 53rd minute, Mutu's left-footed shot from outside the penalty area was also high.

In the 61st minute, Degan's free kick hit the middle and was hit again by Roma goalkeeper Doni.

The Roma team started from the second half and went on for more than ten minutes without a decent attack. It can be seen that Spalletti wants to maintain this lead until the end of the game.

Roma hoarded a heavy defense in the backcourt, and Florence had no choice for a while. At the critical moment, Digan stood up.

At the 70th minute of the game, Degan returned to the midfield, broke Taddei's ball, and then rushed directly to the penalty area of ​​Rome. After passing De Rossi and Aquilani in succession, he grabbed the Before Gamberini made up the defense, he pushed the ball gently with his left foot like a sidewalk, then bypassed Gamberini, received Arteta's pass again, made no adjustments, and pushed directly.

Although the goalkeeper Dhoni chose to attack in time, Deegan was more experienced in grasping the timing. The main ball passed through Dhoni's buttocks and rolled directly into the goal.

2:2!

Thanks Digan! 136!

Evening the score, Fiorentina will not be satisfied with this. What they want is to break Inter Milan's 17-game winning streak in Serie A. Counting the last few games of last season, Fiorentina has maintained eight victories. As long as they can win at home, Rome, Their goal can go one step further.

Finally, when the game progressed to the 85th minute, the opportunity came. Mutu steals the ball from the backcourt and breaks through the middle to score the ball.

Although the Roma players surrounded the referee and protested loudly, they were unable to change the referee's penalty. Judging from the slow-motion playback, this was indeed a foul, a very serious foul.

Mutu took the penalty, and the "little spoon" with his right foot hit the middle of the net, 3:2.

This score was also maintained until the end.
