Chapter 1423 Lock the champion

PS1: This is the update on Sunday, a little late. I hope that all book friends don’t care too much about the update time. I’ll guarantee that I will not stop updating...

PS2: Let me talk about the book friends group here. The group numbers are three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine, and the verification answer is NTR Knight, well, that's it.

PS3: Here I would like to thank the book friends "Ximen Fanfan" and "Tianyuan Hanqi" for their rewards.

That’s all for the matter of Villarreal. Let’s turn our attention back to Fiorentina. After defeating Villarreal by a total score of 1-0 in the semi-finals, Zi Lily finally got a ticket to participate in the Champions League final after a full three years!

You know, the last time Fiorentina reached the Champions League final, it happened in the 2002-03 season. In the following two seasons, although Purple Lily was still a strong contender for the Big Ear Cup, she always missed the final, leaving fans with a lot of regrets. Now, Fiorentina fans finally have the opportunity to see the team they support show their power on the stage of the Champions League final!

The Fiorentine players were also quite excited at this time. Although the team had already missed the Triple Crown title from the Italian Cup, in their eyes, becoming the double champion of the Serie A and the Champions League is also a goal worth striving for. Therefore, even though the league champions have been mostly won, the Fiorentine players are still conducting daily training conscientiously under Mourinho's supervision and did not show any slackness.

After all, if a player annoyed Mourinho at this time because of his misbehavior attitude, he was kicked out of the 18-man roster in the Champions League final by the opponent, it would be a regret for this player for life. Even more serious, if someone casually makes a low-level mistake in the game, causing the team to lose the championship trophy he should have, let alone Mourinho will not let him go, other Fiorentine players will also kill him as soon as possible...

The day after Fiorentina eliminated Villarreal, another Champions League semi-final was also decided. AC Milan, led by Ukrainian nuclear warhead Shevchenko and Brazilian star Kaka, lost to Lazio 0-2 away, and was finally blocked by the Blue Eagles from the finals of the Champions League by one-to-two!

AC Milan felt lost in this defeat. After all, just last season, they defeated Lazio five-to-two in the Champions League final, winning the Big Ear Cup, which symbolized the highest honor of European clubs. Unexpectedly, in less than a year, the main lineup has not changed at all, but the head coach, who changed from Mancini to Lippi, actually had the capital to defeat them. Such obvious changes really made AC Milan players unacceptable.

Among them, the person who felt the deepest was Shevchenko. The reason why the Ukrainian nuclear warhead chose to leave Fiorentina and switch to AC Milan was, on the one hand, because he was dissatisfied with the reality of trying to attack Vieri, but AC Milan could give him the position he wanted; on the other hand, because AC Milan frequently made major moves in the transfer market at that time, which made him feel the ambition of the Ross and Blacks fighting for the championship trophy, and believed that his football career could be further improved here.

However, what Sheva did not expect was that after he joined AC Milan, Lao Bei's investment in the transfer market was getting less and less. In recent years, he was only a rare generous man when he introduced Girardino. He was basically stingy the rest of the time, and he could not see his ambition to compete for the championship.

So, after personally experiencing the incident of winning first and losing in the semi-finals, being successfully reversed and eliminated from the Champions League by Lazio, Shevchenko, who felt that there was no hope in AC Milan, had the idea of ​​transfer again. This time, he planned to join Lazio, who reached the Champions League final for the second consecutive year and has been a big hit in recent years!

In fact, since Abramovich announced his acquisition of Lazio, the Russian tycoon has not stopped recruiting Shevchenko, a fellow villager from AC Milan. However, AC Milan was a top Serie A club at that time, and his grades were much better than the Blue Eagles. In addition, Sheva lived a comfortable life in the Ross and Blacks, so the transfer was always on the standstill.

Now, as AC Milan continues to miss the league championship and stops in the semi-finals in the Champions League, Shevchenko's heart has finally begun to be moved by Abu's fellow countrymen.

Although AC Milan's ending of nothing this season made Berlusconi very dissatisfied, this time, Lao Bei's mind was still at least awake and did not pop up and clamor for fire Ancelotti's squid. In other words, Lao Bei had realized that when he did not want to invest heavily in AC Milan, the head coach who could fully integrate the team's resources and give full play to his good combat effectiveness was already the best choice he could make.

In this way, Fiorentina's opponent in this Champions League final was finally released under the high expectations, that is, the Blue Eagle Lazio, who had just successfully taken revenge on the Red and Black Legion!

Florence also felt a little tricky about this final opponent. Although Lazio was indeed left behind by Fiorentina and Juventus early in the league, under the guidance of Lippi in the Silver Fox, Lazio's combat effectiveness has been greatly improved compared to Mancini's period. In the two encounters on the league battlefield this season, the record between Fiorentina and Lazio was one win and one loss, and Purple Lily did not have much advantage in the field. This is enough to show that after getting Lippi, Lazio has evolved into a very terrible opponent.

However, before dealing with Lazio, Fiorentina has to solve the problems on the league battlefield first. On May 7, Fiorentina, which rotated most of the main lineup, welcomed the penultimate round of the league with Regina at Frankie Stadium with the ardent expectations of more than 50,000 home team fans.

Although Juventus and Italian media were trying hard to build momentum before the game, they hoped that Regina could play a fair game spirit and do their best to block Fiorentina in this game and destroy the opponent's dream of winning the championship ahead of schedule. However, for Regina, who has already succeeded in relegation ahead of schedule and has no hope of European competition, it is obvious that they do not need to offend Fiorentina, a big-name team at this time.

Although there are many stories in the history of football that teams have capsized at the last moment and thus lost the championship trophy, in most cases, there will be no surprises in this game with huge gaps in strength. If the ball can relied on the so-called willpower and iron barrel formation to upset the game on the giants, then what's the use of these giants and stars?
