Chapter 35 of "Additional Updates and Compensation Plan"

There should be a third update tonight, about ten o'clock...

After the game started, Zaragoza, who was the first to kick off, played the characteristics of the Spanish team, using the players' skills to play the ball control tactics, and advanced layer by layer to Fiorentina's half-court through continuous transmission.

The Fiorentine players set up defense lines from the midfield to create obstacles for Espanyol's offense and are preparing to use the Italian team's tactical defensive counterattack to let the Spanish drink a good pot.

"Tony, where do you think Zaragoza's weakest point?"

"I think it should be their starting right-back, Marcos Cafo."

"Huh? Isn't Kafu the main right-back of the Brazilian national team? I remember that in the Toyota Cup in 1993, he was still playing for Sao Paulo. At that time, this player made AC Milan's defense line very embarrassed."

"Haha, what you said is true, but Kafu's performance in Sao Paulo and the Brazilian national team is different from his current state in Zaragoza."

In Zhuang Mingge's impression, among the 11 Zaragoza players on the court, the only ones who played in the game later were right-back Kafu and Uruguay midfielder Poyet. Kafu played in Zaragoza this season was not pleasant. Originally, his advantages were fast speed, strong assists, and one-on-one defense and return to defense were relatively poor. However, because he had extremely abundant physical fitness, he could ensure that he could pack the entire right side by one. Therefore, whether he was in Sao Paulo or the Brazilian national team, he was an offensive weapon that the team relied on.

However, in Zaragoza, Kafu's biggest advantage could not be played. Mohammad Naim, who was standing in front of him, deprived him of the right to assist from the right - the tactic of full-backs to assist was not very popular in European football at that time, and the head coach of Zaragoza was obviously not as open as in Brazil, and Kafu could be allowed to play freely.

The advantage on the offensive end was not fully utilized, which resulted in the shortcomings of Kafo on the defensive end being infinitely magnified. Therefore, Kafo spent only one year in Zaragoza and was forced to return to Brazil to play football after the end of the season because he was not used to the team's tactics. After staying in Brazil for two years, he re-established his confidence. After joining Roma, he met the famous coach Capello, where he was made into a world-class right-back.

Kafu is now unable to attack or defend in Zaragoza's team. The extremely embarrassing status can be said to be the biggest weakness in Zaragoza's defense line.

"So, Kafu in Zaragoza is equivalent to a tiger whose teeth are removed. It has no advantages and disadvantages, but are exposed."

Ranieri's pre-match preparations were obviously done very carefully. He noticed Cafo's embarrassing position in Zaragoza and made special arrangements for this.

So in the game, Effenberg, who had an excellent overall view, frequently passed the ball to Djokaf on the left and Lanna on the side, and then they both directly attacked the right defense line guarded by Kafu.

In addition, many of Fiorentina's offenses use Zaragoza's pass mistakes to counterattacks, so Cafo often faces more than one Fiorentina offensive player directly, which further increases his defensive difficulty.

As a result, just in the eighth minute of the game, Naim dribbled the ball from the right and was intercepted by Lanna. The latter immediately drove straight into Zaragoza's half from the wing. After attracting Kafu, Lanna passed the ball with a diagonal pass to Djokav on the right!

"The perfect opportunity for Florence! Cafo's snatch is too rash, Zaragoza's right is now completely unprepared!"

After receiving the pass, Djokaf did not hesitate and directly dribbled the ball and rushed into Zaragoza's penalty area!

Seeing Djokaf cut inward into his penalty area, Zaragoza's central defender had to come and stop him from moving forward, and at the same time he had to be careful of his defensive movements. Once the movement was a little bigger, the French would definitely not mind showing the audience his outstanding acting skills.

Seeing Aguado who rushed towards him with a fierce momentum, the French did not plan to pass him directly. After all, he had been living in Italy for a year and a half. Djokav learned how to reasonably allocate the ball under his feet. The players' overly sticky behavior is very unpopular in Italy, unless you have the ability to pass four or five people like Maradona before hitting the ball in...

Therefore, when Aguado rushed towards Djokaf, Djokaf keenly noticed that there must be a clear gap in Zaragoza's defense line at this time.

Due to Djokaf's inward cut, Zaragoza's back line had to retreat to the penalty area, and their midfielder had not yet arrived, so a very obvious gap appeared near the penalty spot!

Djokav would naturally not let go of such an obvious gap easily. He shook his left ankle gently and immediately sent the ball to the near penalty spot.

"Djokav is the one who takes the ball. Will he choose to be extraordinary... Passing the ball! He passes the ball! Barty received his pass at the penalty spot!"

The player who appeared in the air was Florence's captain Batistuta. He appeared at the position he should have appeared the most. Without anyone disturbing, he volleyed his right foot and scored!

At this time, just eight minutes before the start of the game, Fiorentina relied on Lanna's fast break after an interception to gain a lead!

"Beautiful counterattack! Florence has set up layers of defense from the midfield, forcing Zaragoza's players to make mistakes, and then launch a quick counterattack, which can also make Zaragoza's defense line not have enough time to organize defense... This is definitely not a coincidence. Florence's counterattack in this game was quite outstanding, without any drag. This is the defensive counterattack of the authentic Italian team!" The host of Sky TV is not hesitant to praise Florence. In the eyes of these Englishmen, how could Fiorentina, who can defeat the Premier League team, be killed by a mere Zaragoza?

Zhuang Mingge also celebrated the goal with Karin in the box, although he did not expect that Zaragoza's conceding would be earlier than he thought.

A large part of the reason why Zaragoza was able to defeat Arsenal in the Cup final in history was that Graham's bribery scandal and the endless negative news within Arsenal have affected the normal performance of this London team, rather than how powerful Zaragoza is this season.

So, in this Cup of Winners final, the Zaragoza players were desperate to find that no matter how hard they tried to strike the opponent's goal, the damn Italians would cut off their passes and launch a very threatening counterattack.

Fiorentina is becoming more and more confident. They found that the opponent in the final tonight is even less threatening than Lazio in the domestic league...
