"Hey, hey, Fan Jiaer, he’s not going to give up the game, is he …" Noticed what happened on the sidelines, Zhuang Ge said something. Florence just scored the second goal here and was preparing to add a few more results. Ajax there raised a white flag at this time-we admit that we can’t beat you and we won’t play!
Sitting in another box, Johansson also saw coach Ajax’s actions. He has been engaged in football for so many years. Of course, he knows what this means, and his face is a little unhappy. He reformed the European Super Cup scheme, but he pushed through the crowd and moved the name of the president. It was not easy to pass the reform. After the first game, there was a negative game signal. How can UEFA continue to promote this event to the majority of fans?
In the first few minutes of the game, although the situation is one-sided, the scene of both sides attacking and defending is still very intense, which can attract many people’s attention. After all, the charm of football is not how many goals are scored in a game. If you want to see the goals, you might as well go to the basketball game instead. It is possible for both sides to score more than one goal in a game, but the charm of football lies in the fierce confrontation and plum blossom cooperation between the two teams during the game, as well as the wonderful passing and defense, which are the most attractive places of football.
As a result, Ajax has given up the game now, and the intense scenes can’t be seen, so the attraction of this game to the audience will be greatly reduced. Worse, this is the first European Super Cup after the restructuring. In case the title of "chicken ribs" is crucified in this competition, UEFA can’t change the impression of fans on it even if something happens.
It’s just like the UEFA Cup and the so-called European League after the reform. No matter how much UEFA publicizes and vigorously promotes the attraction and attention of this event to fans, it will always be in a semi-dead state. For example, if you don’t have your favorite team to participate in this competition, he will at most note which team won the championship in the end …
Damn it, Ajax, before I took care of your emotions, I specially assigned you to a weaker group. I didn’t expect you to give me such a face. You will have a good look this season! Johansson sat in the box and thought bitterly.
However, if you think about it carefully, there seems to be nothing wrong with Fan Jiaer’s move from a purely competitive point of view
First of all, Ajax’s winner of the European Champions Cup especially overturned the Milan dynasty team. Although many main players were divided up by a large group of giants this summer, Ajax’s heritage and player training are still there, and they can continue to produce high-quality stars if they have these two things.
All I have to say is that Fan Jiaer and his Ajax are not noticed at all, which is definitely impossible, because no one knows whether Ajax will emerge as a super newcomer like Kluivert this season.
Everyone knows that if you want to go further in this elimination cup, the less conspicuous the better, because the more popular the team is, the more thoroughly the others study you, and the more likely it is to be found that some loopholes and weaknesses are, and the law of "heat will kill you" is also based on this.
It’s not that Fan Jiaer doesn’t want to win the European Super Cup, but that he doesn’t have many cards. He doesn’t want to play hard in this European Super Cup. Of course, this kind of thing has to be saved until the key, such as the European Super Cup, which is obviously not profitable.
Therefore, if the season can go further in the European Cup with more benefits, Fan Jiaer will not choose to use Ajax’s means in this game, and all the cards will be seen through. That is to say, if Ajax does not perform very well in the European Super Cup, it will be difficult for those champions to ignore Ajax’s so-called low-key saving to some extent.
After the players on the sidelines finished warming up, several players in Fan Jiaer immediately changed to laudrup, who was older, and Marc overmars, who sprinted on the side for most of the game, and Finn Littmannin. This move officially announced that Ajax had given up the competition for the European Super Cup.
Ranieri also cooperated with Rui Costa and tommasi to replace djorkaeff and effenberg after seeing Ajax’s substitution, and then Davis changed the game. In the game, Ronaldo twice withdrew a striker and replaced a defensive midfielder.
The game didn’t cause a ripple in the end. After the three main attackers, Ajax’s weak attack could no longer shake Florence’s defense, and Florence seemed to be satisfied with the score of 2-0. After the game, many commentators believed that Ajax’s premature surrender was the chief culprit of the boring game …
However, both sides don’t care much about this game. Florence is very satisfied with winning this championship, and Fan Jiaer also knows what shortcomings his team has now. For ambitious Fan Jiaer and Ajax who are not willing to be silent, it is quite a good deal to find out the potential problems at the cost of an unimportant trophy.
When frisk blew the final whistle, he came to the scene to watch the game, and 5,000 Florence fans burst into cheers! They won another championship trophy in their favorite team!
Although he was dissatisfied with Ajax’s negative behavior in the second half of the game, Johansson, who is in the high position of UEFA president, will not show his dissatisfaction
Captain batistuta received the European Super Cup trophy from Johansson and held it high in the cheers of Florence fans!
Florence is the Wang Zhongwang of European football at this moment!
Chapter 195 The opening of the league
Three days later, on October 30, Florence was postponed for some reason by the Italian Football Association for the first round of the league before the team would participate.
Although the second round will not take place until September 10th, this is because the previous period was the national team match day stipulated by FIFA-for European national teams, it was the ticket day for the 2008 European Cup in England. Of course, the Italian Football Association would not be so stupid as to let the defending champion Florence play in the league on the national team match day …
Therefore, the players who won the European Super Cup did not celebrate as much as before, but simply celebrated at the stadium, and then recovered when the club staff organized a plane to fly back to Florence overnight.
……
"Ha ha, this time, the old man Sacchi is really enough to give us Florence noodles. There are so many people in one move." In the office of President Florence, Zhuang Ge smiled and threw a newspaper on the table.
The headline of the newspaper shows that Italian national team coach Sacchi has just announced the national team list for a European Cup qualifier, which has been ignored by old Sacchi. Florence players have finally got a hard-won opportunity: Lana, birindelli, Lala, Filicano, toldo and midfielder crippa Florence. This time, a total of six players have been called into the latest national team list.
"Coach Sacchi can’t do this. It would be too unreasonable if he won the double championship team last season without even a local player being selected for the national team," Karin also said with a smile. "But coach Sacchi still seems to dislike Roberto Baggio’s refusal to call him into the new Italian national team list."
From Sacchi’s choice, it seems that this "shoemaker" (Sacchi used to be a shoe store salesman before becoming a football coach) thinks that the Florence defender is still worth learning from his Italian national team. This time, so many Florence players may be recruited to observe this aspect at close range.
As for the problem that Roberto Baggio has always been attached to the national team after the World Cup in the United States, Zhuang Ge can also express in his heart that he is really helpless. The stubborn old man Sacchi will not launch his own prejudice because of any "external pressure", which can be seen from the fact that he forced out the main right-back panucci when he later entered the palace in Milan.
This time, in addition to the six local players, djorkaeff, Davies and Rui Costa were also called into their respective national teams. After Yakai became the head coach of the French national team, he did not hesitate to abandon cantona, who had been the core of the French team’s attack since he coached Platini. ginola made a low-level mistake against Bulgaria in the World Cup qualifier two years ago, and djorkaeff took this opportunity to become the right-hand man of a new generation of core Zida.
Davis was selected more because of his amazing performance in Ajax last season. In addition, the Netherlands has always been famous for producing excellent offensive players, but there are few excellent defensive players. Therefore, an outstanding defensive midfielder like Davis is naturally regarded as a rare protected animal by the national team coach Hiddink, who has been worried about defense since Rijkaard retired. Hiddink was forced to call the "wild boar" into the Dutch national team.
The situation in Rui Costa is almost the same as that of Davis, a representative who won two World Youth Championships on behalf of Portugal. Costa naturally entered the new national team list.
It is precisely because Florence will be deprived of so many main players that the date of the game will be set to be one day earlier on March 31, because UEFA just issued a directive a few years ago that a team is not allowed to play the second game 72 hours after the end of the previous game; Not even a day late, because the national team registration date is September 1.
……
On March 31, 1995, Florence finally ushered in the opening match of Serie A in 9596. They sat at Frankie Stadium to face the red bull-Turin.
Turin ranked 11th in Serie A in the season. Although the ranking is not high, the red bull overthrew the powerful Juventus at home last season. From this point of view, it is still difficult for Florence to successfully win this game.
However, the Turin club released the main striker Silenzi this summer. In the 9394 season, the Turin team scored 17 league goals. He was 191m tall. He was an Italian center. He and Rizzitelli formed a high school and a fast front line combination. Last season, he led the team to get a lot of valuable points. His departure made the Turin team lose a "tower" that attracted the attention of the opposing defenders.
More unfortunately, Turin spent a lot of money to recruit Ghana star Abédi Ayew from relegated Marseille last summer. He was seriously injured in summer training and won’t be able to play again until January of next year …
However, the backstage boss of the Turin club suffered a sharp decline in assets during the devaluation of the lira last year, and the money was tight. He was unwilling to continue to invest in the club to buy big-name players. Therefore, the Turin team was able to keep the remaining first-team players in the huge bosman wave all summer, and there was no big move.
The main striker left the team, the midfielder was seriously injured and the boss refused to continue investing … It was a disaster. The morale of Turin team fell to the bottom as soon as the season started, and at the same time, they ushered in their first league game of the new season.
In the face of such a demoralized Turin team, Ranieri also occupies the home court advantage. Naturally, there is no need to be so conservative. Although sometimes he is conservative and makes many people accuse him, it depends on who Florence’s opponents were at that time. It is really unreasonable to play a defensive counterattack in Turin.
In this game, although Ranieri followed the 4-4-2 formation last season, he made some fine adjustments to the starting players in midfield. Rui Costa replaced crippa who played the full 90 minutes in the European Super Cup, while filippo inzaghi and Ronaldo partnered at the front line, and the left-back position was replaced by a recovery from illness. fortunato, because Turin has no good attacker on the right, Ranieri intends to let fortunato find a feeling in this official game.
With the whistle of the referee, the game is official!
Chapter 196 League first goal
From the first minute, Florence, home advantage, showed a fierce attack to Turin with the cheers of tens of thousands of fans. The players want a hearty victory to make a good start to the new season!
In the first game, Ronaldo received Rui Costa and turned backwards in the front of the restricted area, which successfully broke through the Turin team’s defender defense. Unfortunately, in the face of the opponent’s attack, goalkeeper Ronaldo moved the ball too much, and the ball was thrown into his arms by the opponent’s goalkeeper, which unfortunately lost a good scoring opportunity.
Then in the fourth minute of the game, fortunato lifted the ball from the left side of the midfield. Although the Turin defender took advantage of his height to get the ball first, he made a fatal mistake-this guy directly pushed the ball to djorkaeff’s foot in the restricted area.
After receiving this gift from the opposing defender, the French midfielder stopped the ball directly and volleyed a ball vigorously, forcing the Turin goalkeeper to make a very difficult save to get the ball out of the baseline.
Then Costa made a tactical corner to catch the ball, and Ronaldo went straight into the penalty area with his excellent explosive power on the right. He successfully crossed the goalkeeper’s fingers with a small angle, but was cleared by Turin defender Bigfoot near the goal post and failed to rewrite the score …
"Florence has already contributed three shots in less than five minutes! They firmly suppressed the away game against Turin in their own half! It seems that Florence fans are blessed today to enjoy a wonderful game! " The commentator of Frankie Stadium was also infected by a fierce attack in Florence, which inspired the emotions of the home team fans.
Although Rui Costa is a newcomer who just joined Florence this summer, his skills and cooperation ability are not bad at all. The cooperation and tacit understanding with attackers such as effenberg, djorkaeff and Inzaghi have also been quickly established. It is actually very simple for technical players to resonate.
