Chapter 30 The King of Florence

Chapter 30 The King of Florence

The dressing room of AC Milan was cloudy and gloomy. In stark contrast, it was the dressing room of Fiorentina. The atmosphere here was like a festival. Those who didn't know thought they were celebrating their championship.

This season's Serie A is not normal. The powerful have been penalized one after another, making Inter Milan stand out. Even Digan, who is arrogant, dare not say that he can turn things around and snatch the championship from Inter Milan. Look Looking at the current record of Inter Milan, 13 wins and three draws, no one can stop them.

But even if they can't fight for the championship, it doesn't mean that they can't add nausea to Inter Milan. Even if Inter Milan finally reaches the top, they have to climb up with shit under their feet.

What Degan likes to do the most is to challenge the throne of the king. Just like in Atlanta, he really enjoys the feeling of humiliating a self-righteous wealthy family. It's so refreshing.

"From now on, no one should think about the standings. All we have to do is to play our game well. We did a very good job today. The people in AC Milan are scared. They are trembling in front of us. Like? Isn't this feeling very cool!?"

Degan said, and his teammates laughed. Although Albertini is the captain now, everyone knows that after Albertini retires this season, the captain will be Degan. From now on, Degan has been exercising With the captain's right.

"That's right! That's the feeling. Inter Milan is thriving. They are basically against the sky now. It is difficult for us to shake their position in the standings, but we still have some things we can do. I want to keep going. rob all the teams, rob their points, and keep winning!"

Keep winning!

It is now the sixteenth round of the league. Excluding this game, there are still 19 games to be played. Could it be that Digan intends to win a complete victory?

"You guessed it right, we want to win a complete victory, we have this ability, what we have to do now is to keep looting, let the whole of Europe face up to the existence of Florence, guys! I am not here to score goals every season. The European competition is over, I want a championship, I want a dynasty, I want to be the history of Florence, we can achieve this goal, from now on, we will tell... tell everyone, Florence The dynasty has begun!"

In the end, Degan yelled hoarsely, and every player in Fiorentina had red eyes. Obviously, they were all deeply attracted by the prospect described by Degan.

"The dynasty begins today. Today, we will let the Milanese die at the Frakchi Stadium!"

Albertini listened and sighed in his heart. It was an unforgivable mistake for AC Milan to let Digan go. Originally, Ancelotti could cooperate with Digan to create a great dynasty beyond the past, but now, It's too late.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Fiorentina was still attacking. Prandelli made it very clear during the intermission, attack! attack! Keep attacking! Today's game only requires offense!

Prandelli is not an offensive madman like Zeman, nor is he a crazy coach like Bielsa, but he knows very well that what Fiorentina needs now is a hearty victory, with a victory, to achieve a big turnaround.

Under the violent attack of the Fiorentina team, AC Milan played in a bit of a mess, unable to form an effective counterattack at all, and could only be passively beaten.

The Milan players wanted to slow down the pace of the game, but the Fiorentina players refused. Every time they lost the ball, they were like a group of mad dogs, chasing and intercepting. The Milan players had never been so embarrassed before. Under the siege, mistakes continued to occur.

If it weren't for the excellent performance of Milan's defensive players, they might have fallen behind by a big score now.

Ancelotti kept yelling on the sidelines in a hurry, but there was no way to change the situation.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Ancelotti made the first substitution adjustment, replacing Seedorf with the French teenager Gourcuff.

This substitution makes people completely confused, what is it all about! ?

When Seedorf left the field, he was also full of doubts. Although he did not have many bright spots in this game, he still passed a few threatening balls after all, but now he is about to be replaced.

This made Seedorf angry, he felt like a scapegoat!

When he walked off the pitch, he didn't even look at Ancelotti and went straight to the dressing room.

Ancelotti's face also became more ugly.

However, the effect of this substitution is immediate. Compared with Seedorf, Gurcuff has no fancy moves, and even seldom surpasses others, but he has accurate footwork and excellent passing ideas. The newspaper has already stated that "Gurkuff is threatening Seedorf's status", and the 20-year-old Gurkuff does have something that the 30-year-old Seedorf lacks.

Although Seedorf passed the ball a few times, what impressed people the most was his five "cycling".

AC Milan's No. 10 seems to have become "Mr. Bicycle" in this field. When he gets the ball, no matter what the surrounding situation is, he "steps on the bicycle" to the opponent first, but no matter how beautiful the bicycle is, it cannot form an effective final pass. For the last shot, in a simple situation, Seedorf often chooses an overly cumbersome approach. Although there will be some amazing moments in the midfield, it has no practical effect on the last pass and the last shot. .

For example, in the 39th minute of the first half, the beautiful "bicycle pass" in the middle, but the final pass line lost its concealment and suddenness, and was easily destroyed by Kompany ahead of Gilardino.

On the contrary, in handling some seemingly simple situations, Seedorf seemed unbelievable. For example, in a counterattack after the opening of the second half, Seedorf dribbled the ball to the left in the middle. He could have directly passed the ball to Kaka. Because Ledesma did not stand between the lines of the two, Seedorf just chose to bring the ball to Ledesma, knocked the latter to the left, and then poked the ball to Kaka. The result was the same, but Fiorentina's defenders were all back, and the counterattack became a positional attack.

Due to too much possession and dribbling of the ball, Seedorf was directly intercepted by the opponent one-on-one four times in the whole scene, and his shot was only high and wide at the front of the penalty area before leaving the field. .

Previously, Millsman, the head of the Milan laboratory, once revealed: "Seedorf needs a period of rest, because he needs 3 or 4 days of rest to heal some minor injuries on his body, but he has not been able to stop because The team needs him."

Poor physical condition is an important reason, but the slow and cumbersome handling of the ball is not a physical problem, but a mental problem. If he is in the best condition, Seedorf can step on the "bicycle" more beautifully "Bicycle" has shot higher quality shots and passed higher quality passes since then, but the way he handles the ball is hard to change.

Not only is Gurcuff threatening Seedorf's position, but in the "Republic" predicting AC Milan's lineup next season, Pirlo and Gattuso are still there, but Seedorf's position is written Emerson, maybe Emerson will give up his plan to play in Italy after gradually adapting to Real Madrid, but if the status quo does not change, there are other candidates for this position besides Emerson and Gourcuff. new name.

Three minutes later, Ancelotti made a second adjustment, replacing Pirlo with Brocchi. This made people confused. Pirlo was the brain of AC Milan. Milan's most threatening attack came from his pass, but it was a pity that Kaka's last shot was saved by the brave Frey.

When Brocchi came on the field, there was a burst of boos at the Flacchi Stadium. Fiorentina fans had reason to hate Brocchi.

In this game, Brockey can be regarded as revisiting his hometown, but this time he is wearing an AC Milan red and black striped shirt. Brocchi was loaned to Fiorentina from AC Milan last season. This distinctive player immediately became the core of Viola and led Fiorentina to a very good performance. Brocchi is also deeply loved by the fans, and he himself With his outstanding performance, he was selected for the national team, but after the end of the season, due to failure to reach a consensus on the contract, Brocchi returned to AC Milan.

Before the game, Brockey also revealed how many secrets he had in an interview with reporters. Brockey himself said: "After the end of last season, I very much hope to stay in Florence. I fell in love with this city deeply. The city fans have the same dream as me, but I have to choose to leave because of the consideration of my future."

When the reporter asked about the secrets, Brocchi said: "In Florence, the Della Valle family does not participate in the team's signings, but is in charge of the general manager Pakinwa. I am a 30-year-old I hope to get a stable three-year contract, but according to Pakinwa's consistent practice in Fiorentina, it is impossible for him to give a 30-year-old player a three-year contract."

When looking forward to this game, Brocchi also said that he will do his best to help AC Milan overcome the difficulties, because this is the club he played for and the place where he grew up. Milan is his home. He believes that Fiorentina fans can Forgive him because he did not betray.

Brocchi only stayed in Florence for a year, and he had feelings: "Florence and I have the same way of waiting for every Sunday, and have the same preferences."

Whether it's an excuse or a real idea, he wants to stay in Fiorentina, and he performed well against Milan. But in the end, he was heartbroken by the Fiorentina executives again, and returned to Milan, where he grew up.

The fans said that he returned to Milan for money and abandoned Fiorentina.

But Brocchi explained: "Berlusconi's call and the decision that the Fiorentina leaders didn't want me, the joint made me make the final decision. Fiorentina, it's not the Della Valle brothers who have the final say, but the manager Pakinwa. I want to stay and sign a three-year contract, but Parkinwa will never agree to give a three-year contract to someone over 30 years old, and I am 32. Can there be an exception? I don't know, fans should know these things. Some people say that I betrayed, that's not right!"

Back at the Frankie Stadium, Brocchi felt "thrashing": "But Milan is my club, where I grew up, my home, and I have to do my best."

Brocchi refused to admit his betrayal, but the Fiorentina fans refused to forgive him. The Fiorentina people will never forgive the "traitor" in their hearts, whether it is Baggio or Batistuta, even if they leave, they still have the "traitor" in their hearts. Florence, but they are the people that Florence fans think should stay, so they became "traitors", so the statue of "Batman" Batistuta in Florence was pulled down.

Brocchi, who only played for Fiorentina for one season, is also a "traitor" in the eyes of the Fiorentina. Before the game, Donadell, who also came from AC Milan but chose to stay in Fiorentina, also talked about Brocchi: He chose a different path from him, we all hoped that he could stay in Fiorentina, but since he chose AC Milan, we also respect his choice."

Although the Fiorentina players chose to respect, the Fiorentina fans didn't think so. After Brocchi came on the field, as soon as the ball reached his feet, the audience was full of boos. The hero of Frankie Stadium a year ago is now Became a "public enemy".

But amidst the boos of the audience, this "traitor" almost completed the fatal blow. After only three minutes on the field, Brocchi took the ball from the midfield, and after a wall kick with Kaka, he made a precise kick The through plug made a perfect one-handed ball for Gilardino, but it's a pity that Gilardino's left-footed shot failed to cross Frey's ten fingers.

Brocchi did a good job in AC Milan. In terms of goals and assists in total, Brocchi is second only to Kaka in AC Milan, tied with Gilardino, but divided into the number of appearances in a single game In terms of the efficiency of offensive data, Brockey is the out-and-out "No. 1".

The bought Oliveira did not score for a long time, Favalli was injured when he came, Bonera and Gourcuff are future reserves, if AC Milan doesn't know what to do in the transfer market all summer , then at least Galliani's decision to return to Brocchi has been proved to be extremely correct in the end.

Brockey's role is not only in offense, but in defense, his midfield counter-grab and active recovery played an important role.

It seems that Brockey has enough immunity to the boos of 47,000 people at Frankie Stadium. Brockey's psychological quality is good enough. Said that he "hates Inter Milan the most". After Ancelotti criticized the players, he dared to publicly say that "the players must bear the responsibility, but everyone must bear part of their own responsibilities". There was also a fight with Gattuso, but later the two became good friends and started a business together. Brockey was not afraid of anyone, boos couldn't obliterate him, and half a dark season couldn't be defeated either. Break his will, AC Milan in this half of the darkest season, Brocchi can be regarded as a rare bright spot.

It's just that the light of rice grains is not enough to compete with Haoyue. Broki performed well after playing, but this bright spot was quickly covered up.

When the game progressed to 82 minutes, Degan scored again, Albertini took a corner kick, Degan overwhelmed Nesta with a lion shake, and sent the ball into Milan's goal for the third time.

hat trick!

Degan completed a hat-trick in the first game after his comeback, and the whole Frakki Stadium became crazy again. Here, and most importantly, they have a new king.

Degan rushed under the stands, opened his arms, and greeted the cheers and worship of the fans, a feeling he hadn't tried for a long time.

When he was at AC Milan, he and the fans had always been enemies. He spent almost a whole season in the midst of scolding and boos, but now, in Fiorentina, he has found a feeling of home here.

The fans here love him, are willing to cheer for him, shout for him, what could be better than this?

The eyes of AC Milan players began to become dull. Although Kaka and some individual players were still working hard in the next few minutes, trying to score a face-saving goal, but today at the Frakki Stadium, they Doomed to be disappointed, Florence, who is very hungry for victory, not only wants to win, but also wants to crush their bones.

attack! attack! attack!

The crazy Fiorentina players continued to attack, and Prandelli also made continuous personnel adjustments. Cavinaghi, Donadale and Mutu were replaced one after another.

At the end of the game, Degan also sent a wonderful pass for Kavinaji, but it was a pity that Kavinaji's luck was really bad, and he shot from a corner, which happened to be kicked on Dida, and missed the breakthrough goal. Good opportunity for ball shortage.

However, the flaws did not hide their strengths. After the winter break at home, Fiorentina finally ushered in the team's first victory, which also ended the previous three-game losing streak.

After the game, the Fiorentina fans were still reluctant to leave. When Degan stepped off the field, they stood up collectively and shouted: "King! King! King!"

Degan listened, and couldn't help being moved. He took off the jersey and threw it to the stands. He raised his arms high, showing his strong muscles, responding to the enthusiasm of the fans.

"There is no doubt that after several years of turmoil, Fiorentina is really on the right track today. A new king and a great star will lead Viola to great strides on the road to success. Forward! Let us welcome the new king of the city of Florence, Degan!"
