After seeing Ronaldo's goal being declared valid by the referee, the Fiorentine fans were immediately in great joy and shouted Ronaldo's name in unison in the stands and congratulated him with extremely warm applause!
On the other side, the stands where Lazio fans gathered was dead at this time. Although they had expected the loss of the city gate, when the incident really happened to them, Lazio fans were still disappointed. However, they did not blame the players for the loss of the ball and the extremely passive situation on the court, because these fans also knew very well that the team's poor performance in the Champions League final was largely due to the exhaustion of too much physical strength in the league four days ago. Therefore, for these players who obviously had done their best, the fans naturally would not demand too much.
It is precisely because of this that the Lazio players are unwilling to look at the Fiorentine players celebrating the goal on the sidelines, with dissatisfaction in their eyes. In their opinion, Fiorentine's game is really a bit unfair.
"If we had not fought with Parma in the league before, but were preparing for the finals of the Champions League, would we be able to do so?" At this time, almost all Lazio players had such an idea in their minds, "If we hadn't had the strength in this game, how could you Fiorentina have taken the initiative on the court so easily, or even broke through our goal!"
Of course Mourinho couldn't hear the voice of Lazio's players. Of course, even if he heard it, he wouldn't care at all, and he might even sneer at this view - although Fiorentina did take advantage of Lazio in this game, it doesn't mean that Lazio has no chance to win at all!
"If I were sitting in Lippi's current position, then I wouldn't have any defensive counterattack in this situation." Looking at Lippi who was dispatching troops on the other side to try to reverse the situation, Mourinho sat back on the bench after conveying his latest instructions to the Fiorentine player on the court and began to explain his views to Dilivio. "Although defensive counterattack seems to be a good choice, in fact, the physical energy consumed by the defense is generally in the same way
There are more than the offensive side, which will make Lazio players' already poor physical condition worse and make them more passive in the game. Moreover, they have given up possession of the ball and suffer much more mental pressure in the game than the offensive side. After all, the consequences of defensive mistakes are much more serious than failure in offense, because once there is a mistake or the defense is not timely, it is very likely that all their previous efforts will be wasted."
"So, Jose (Murinho) Your opinion is that Lippi should adopt a proactive offensive strategy from the beginning of the game?" Although he is only three years younger than Mourinho, Dilivio, who is completely new in the coaching circle, needs to learn a lot. "Indeed, doing so can allow the team to devote all their limited energy to one of the aspects. Coupled with the offensive talents of Ronaldinho and Robben, it may be possible to cause trouble for us in the game."
In Mourinho's view, Lippi's most mistake was not to twist the team together with the players' energy. Knowing that Ronaldo and Robben were unwilling to participate in the defense, while Stankovic and Deco did not have enough energy to defend as usual, they still insisted on sticking to the previous tactical routines. As a result, Lazio, who was inadequate in physical strength, was suppressed by Fiorentina.
Look at Lazio, after his goal was broken by Fiorentina, Lippi completely threw the thought of winning and losing in his mind into the Mediterranean. After all, when the team fell behind with one goal and the players were already exhausted, Lazio would probably have no effect on defending. Instead of being beaten to death by Purple Lily, it would be better to give it a try and let the players devote all their remaining physical strength to the offense. Maybe there will be unexpected gains.
While Lazio regrouped, the Fiorentine players who ended the celebration also began to take action in full swing. After all, although Lazio, as the defensive side, is more physically exhausted, Fiorentine's physical energy is also seriously damaged. Therefore, it is still necessary to slow down the offensive and stabilize the pace after taking the lead, so that its own players can take advantage of this opportunity to recover their physical strength.
So, after the game restarted, Fiorentina consciously contracted the formation under Pirlo's command and launched a defensive counterattack. Of course, shrinking the formation did not mean that Pirlo and the others would easily hand over control of the game, handing over the initiative of the offense to Lazio, but only retreated the front line for more than 20 meters, from besieging the opponent to dragging the time in the backcourt.
This change in Fiorentina caught Lazio players off guard. Fiorentina would shrink its formation after leading the way to play against defense and counterattack, which was indeed as expected, but they had never seen such an anti-counterattack method before!
At the beginning, after the offense failed, the Lazio player who was eager to return to defense found that the Fiorentine player was just stumbled in the backcourt and had no intention of launching a counterattack, but over time, they felt something was wrong - they had been passing in the backcourt for almost five minutes, why don’t you plan to attack yet?
Lazio players are not stupid. They quickly understood the intention of Fiorentina: this is obviously delaying the game time!
You are too hurt. During the game, we deliberately grasped our weakness and fought hard. After taking the lead, we would shrink our formation. Now we don’t even plan to defend and counterattack. We just dragged our time in the backcourt. Do you dare to compete with us with real swords and guns!
That being said, in the unfavorable situation of falling behind by one goal, the Lazio player still had to suppress his resentment and actively pressed Fiorentina's backcourt, trying to complete a steal in the frontcourt and then directly hit Fiorentina's goal!
So, a very strange scene appeared on the court: the formation completely retracted to the first half, Fiorentina, who took advantage of the number and physical strength, kept teasing the Blue Eagles players in the backcourt, while the Lazio player who was pressing heavily was running around with the ball and trying to intercept the ball.
