Looking at the extremely stalemate situation between Fiorentina and Juventus, the fans of both sides are naturally quite anxious. After all, the longer this stalemate situation is delayed, the worse it will be for these two teams. Because as time goes by, the days when the European Champions League rekindles are getting closer!

Therefore, if Fiorentina and Juventus cannot establish enough points advantage in the league and prepare for multi-line battles during this period, then after the Champions League knockout round starts, they have to be distracted by European competitions and will be greatly affected in combat effectiveness! At that time, Fiorentina and Juventus are likely to have accidents in the Champions League due to excessive consumption in the process of championship competition, or to ensure that they can go hand in hand on these two fronts and let the main players persist in the game. As a result, they suddenly collapsed due to lack of physical strength at the end of the season, and other teams focused on one of the fronts came from behind to win the championship trophy.

Fans on both sides are naturally worried about this situation that is likely to appear on their own team. However, although the fans hope that the team can make a clear choice in this situation, they did not ask the club to do so. Because they still have a glimmer of hope, or a lucky mentality, they believe that the team is capable of taking into account the two fronts of the league and the Champions League at the same time.

Humans are such a creature that will never be content. Under the temptation of interests, even if the facts are placed before them, they will not be recognized by them. They will not wake up and regret it until the disaster comes.

But then again, if humans lose this characteristic, they may not have built such a brilliant civilization and invented so many scientific and technological achievements and advanced technologies to promote the development of civilization. They would have long stopped because of their loss of desire for benefits and enterprising spirit, and would not have become the new master on the earth.

In the eyes of the two head coaches Mourinho and Trapatoni, the situation before them is different. For Juventus and Trapatoni, it is obviously an extremely bad result to still stalemate with Fiorentina in the league before the Champions League rekindled. By analyzing the two games Juventus lost to AC Milan and Fiorentina in the league this season, most Serie A coaches have discovered the terrible depth of the bench of the Zebras and realized that once Juventus cannot send all the main players in the game, they will have a chance to steal a victory from the Zebras.

In contrast, the situation in Fiorentina is much better. Although the Champions League game will also have a significant negative impact on Fiorentina's performance in Serie A, and Fiorentina's current substitute lineup is far less powerful than before, compared to other teams, Purple Lily's bench depth is still the first-class in Europe. Therefore, compared to Juventus, which will lose a lot of strength once it is missing, Mourinho has a lot more cards available in his hands, and Fiorentina can also better deal with the situation of multi-line battle through rotation. At least, in this Serie A championship chase, Fiorentina's chance of dragging down Juventus is much higher than the possibility of being exhausted by his opponent.

Especially after the season entered the second half, veterans such as Vieri and Inzagi began to perform, and their competitive state improved significantly compared to the early stages of the season. It was these veterans who frequently staged scenes of saviors in times of crisis, which helped the team stabilize the situation and allowed Fiorentina to advance together on three fronts, and at the same time, they maintained the lead in the championship battle with Juventus!

On February 2, in the second leg of the Italian quarter-finals, Fiorentina, who won 3-1 in the first leg, made a bad start at the beginning of the game. The goal guarded by Guadalbourne was pierced twice by Udinese, who played at home in twenty minutes before the opening, causing Zi Lily, who sent a full substitute lineup in this game, to unexpectedly fall behind the home team by zero-two.

If the score is kept until the end of the game, then Fiorentina will be eliminated by Udinese because of few away goals. Therefore, in the following time, Fiorentina, who had no choice but to launch a fierce counterattack on Wuji's goal. However, because Croatian young player Luca Modric, who is the core of the organization, lacks experience in dealing with this aspect, and is more prone to impetuous and aggressive than main players such as Pirlo and Barack, Fiorentina's offensive always seems to be somewhat lacking in structure and it is difficult to pose a substantial threat to Udinese's goal.

However, just when people thought Udinese was about to succeed in revenge, Da Inzagi, who had almost been invisible for most of the game, stood up and took a header from Vieri in the 78th minute of the game and made a fish jump and scored, regaining the lead in the overall score for Fiorentina, shattering Udinese's dream of advancing to the semi-finals by relying on defensive counterattack!

Immediately afterwards, taking advantage of the opportunity that Udinese players put in big pressure, Inzagi, who was best at seizing the opportunity, continued to work hard, and scored two more goals on his head and kicked the top of his head in the 89th and 91st minutes of the game, helping Fiorentina complete a Jedi reversal and locked the score on the field to 3-2!

The hat trick with Udinese is just the beginning of these veterans' wonderful performances in the second half of the season. In the 24th round of the league against Inter Milan, when the two teams were in a stalemate, after starting center Milito was injured in the second half, Vieri, who came on the bench, scored the only goal for Fiorentina in the game, leading Purple Lily to repel the Nerazzurri who visited Frankie Stadium and scored three points at home!

In the 25th round of the league, Inzagi's goal in injury time helped Fiorentina secure the victory, defeating Livorno, who was fighting for relegation 2-0, and continued to suppress the restless Zebra Legion in the standings.

A week later, in the 26th round of Serie A, facing the strong Lazio, Inzagi's goal in the final stage of the game made the Blue Eagles' hope of scoring away points shatter. The assist for Inzagi was another veteran in the Fiorentine team, Christian Vieri, who was about to turn 33!

It can be said that Fiorentina was not surpassed by Juventus while attackers such as Milito, Ronaldo, and Barack were all silent, and successfully maintained the top position in the standings. Vieri and Inzagi are definitely the biggest contributors of Purple Lily!
