The day after Fiorentina's second team unexpectedly defeated Bologna, Fiorentina's first team also ushered in the first round of the Italian Cup against Naples.
After being relegated from Serie A in the 2000-01 season, the Naples management, who lacked understanding of the current situation of the team, made a serious mistake, that is, they actually risked the large financial deficit and left most of the players in the first team, preparing to rely on this team to compete in the Serie B League, and believed that the team could definitely return to Serie A after one season!
However, facts prove that the Napoli executives made an extremely wrong decision. In the Serie B League last season, Napoli, which ended up only fifth, not only failed to get the qualification to upgrade directly, but also unexpectedly lost to Empoli, who was not as famous as theirs in the subsequent upgrade play-offs, thus losing the last glimmer of hope for upgrade.
The result of not being able to return to the Serie A arena is undoubtedly a huge blow to Naples. It not only forces them to let go of a large number of main players after the end of the season to ease the club's increasingly serious financial pressure, but also completely fails to make the Naples senior executives' plans use the huge amount of TV broadcasting fees to smooth out the fiscal deficit last season, and they have to face the dilemma of high debt.
Therefore, in the summer when first team members left a large area, Napoli had to completely rebuild the first team, and the departure of a large number of main players had a worse negative impact on this club that was once glorious in the Maradona era. For example, the team's strength declined sharply due to the large flow of personnel, and the remaining players were also uneasy about the future because of the club's actions... In short, Napoli now gives people a feeling of being in turmoil and a complete collapse at any time.
In this situation of internal and external troubles, Napoli, who was panicked, only won one victory in the first six rounds of the Serie B League this season. If they continue to maintain their current competitive state, let alone returning to the Serie A, it would be worth their champagne celebration to be able to stay in the second division at the end of the season.
Faced with such a weak and unwarranted opponent, Heinx decisively sent a starting lineup composed of a large number of substitutes in the game. Therefore, after the start of this season, Effenberg and Redondo, who have been sitting on the bench and even on the stands, had few playing time, and the opportunity to start today. Gattuso, who is physically and brave, entered the starting roster as the bodyguard of the two; Guadalbourne replaced Buffon as the starting goalkeeper, and in front of him were Sun Jihai, Lucio, Nesta and Zivo formed the defense line; as for the frontcourt trident, it was a combination of Dinatale, Diego Milito and Portuguese teenager Cristiano Ronaldo.
Although there are many problems with the starting lineup sent by Heinkes, for example, Redondo and Effenberg's current competitive state is far inferior to their peak period, it is easy to be chased and beaten by the opponent as loopholes; although Gattuso has a fierce defense but a very poor sense of position, he can only be regarded as a messenger, which cannot play the role of Marklele; Ronaldo has not completely gotten rid of the style of playing too much when he was playing for Benfica, which ignores practicality. For this reason, he has been taught a lesson by Carlos and Zivo when he was training in the team.
However, despite all the shortcomings and shortcomings of this starting lineup, it is still no problem to deal with the team that is not tacitly compatible and poorly stubborn. Although Ronaldo almost became the second De Nielsen in front of these experienced old ball players, his flashy dribbling skills were almost completely unavailable after taking advantage of the unexpected success in the early stage, under the planning of the two midfield masters Redondo and Effenberg, Fiorentina still steadily controlled the rhythm of the game and did not give Napoli players a chance to upset.
In the 28th minute of the game, Napoli players intercepted the ball from the midfield in the middle and passed it to Redondo. The latter made a standard wall-to-wave cooperation with Effenberg and passed it straight to the middle. Diego Milito, who received the ball in the air, made a slight adjustment and directly shot. The ball hit the far post and bounced into the goal, one-to-zero!
Milito's goal made Napoli players start to panic. After all, their opponent in this game is the famous Fiorentina. Faced with such a giant, they are already a little weak. Now that Milito is doing this, these players have a disagreement with the next game strategy. Some people think that offense should be strengthened to win goals, some people think that defense should be done first is the basis for winning, and some players who feel that the situation is hopeless have begun to play soy sauce on the court...
Therefore, taking advantage of the disagreement of Napoli players and the opportunity to disconnect the formation on the court, Fiorentina scored two more games before the end of the first half, completely seizing the victory of the game!
Finally, when the final whistle sounded, Fiorentina, who played away, defeated Napoli 3-0 at the Sao Paulo Stadium, and advanced to the next round of the game with his head held high.
However, for Fiorentina, another thing that happened in the game made Purple Lily's victory look not so perfect. In the 66th minute of the game, Redondo launched an offensive, Dinatale broke through and passed back to the middle. Digo Milito received Dinatale's cross from the front of the penalty area and then passed the ball into the penalty area. Ronaldo, who ran without the ball from the right, received Milito's pass, but was entangled by the Napoli defender who returned to defend in time while preparing to shoot, and then fell head-on into the penalty area of Napoli!
Although at first glance, Ronaldo's fall must be the work of the Napoli defender, and a penalty kick must be impossible. However, when the scene just now was played on the big screen of the stadium in slow motion, it immediately caused a lot of curses from the Napoli fans in the stands. Because the picture clearly shows that before the Napoli defender stretched out his foot to steal, Ronaldo had already jumped up and fell in the penalty area without any physical contact!
Because the evidence is conclusive, and the referee on duty in this game is not as indestructible as Moreno and Henning, he naturally would not blatantly award Fiorentina a false penalty. Instead, he showed a yellow card to the Portuguese young player on the grounds that Ronaldo faked his fall!
