The moment he saw Baggio pass by Rossi, Bareci stopped chasing and closed his eyes in despair. He knew the truth that time would not forgive others, but he did not expect that it would come so quickly. The golden defense line that dominated Europe more than a year ago is now full of holes.

Now, Tasotti, an old comrade who has worked together for more than ten years, has been replaced by the younger Panucci. Costakuta has never found its peak state after the World Cup in the United States. Rossi, who guards the goal, is no longer stable, and various low-level mistakes are emerging one after another... Although he can still maintain the top defensive level in Serie A, how long can he last, who is already 35 years old? One year or two years?

While Barreci was standing on the court and thinking quietly about his future, Robert Baggio, who expanded the score for Fiorentina, ran to the sidelines and celebrated his goal with many Fiorentina fans on the scene.

For Robert Baggio, who returned to Florence with a net worth of nearly $6 million plus two main rotation players, this return to Fiorentina is to prove to Lippi and everyone who thinks he is no longer at the peak of the world.

However, this time he returned to Fiorentina, he was surprised to find that the team was much stronger in terms of player ability and lineup thickness than when he left five years ago. Just talking about these players on the front line, Baggio originally thought that his strength could form a super forward with Batistuta to sweep Europe without any suspense, but he tragically discovered that the new Brazilian striker named Ronaldo, who came in summer, won a stable starting position with a series of goals at the beginning of the season, while Baggio became a rotation player for the team due to injury.

However, Baggio was not discouraged. After all, he was treated differently by Lippi at Juventus last season. At that time, no matter how good his condition was, he had to give up the starting position for the rookie Pierro, whom the club had vigorously trained. Now it was just because of the state factor that he had no chance to play, so Baggio was patiently waiting for his own opportunity.

Sure enough, Ronaldo first represented the Brazilian youth team in the World Youth Championship to give Baggio a room to perform. Taking advantage of the great opportunity when the Brazilian was far away in Qatar, Baggio scored three goals in two rounds of the league, which made many critics who shouted that "Baggio is old" shut their mouths.

Ronaldo's serious injury in training allowed Baggio to see hope of returning to the main force, but the injury once again found him inappropriately. When he returned again, the young player Philip Inzaghi, who competed for the main position with him this time, became young player Philip Inzaghi.

Baggio himself admired Inzaji's elusive running without the ball and his unusually sensitive sense of smell when his goal chance appeared. He believed that even now he could not reach the level of Inzaji.

But Baggio also has an advantage that Inzaghi is absolutely incomparable, that is, he is the only player among the team's forwards who have dribbling ability... Except for Djokaf, after all, this Frenchman plays more in the team's front midfielder position.

Ranieri's attitude towards who will start the two seems to be determined based on the opponent's situation and the team's tactical needs. If a counterattack is needed, then Baggio is naturally the first choice when Ronaldo is seriously injured. If the opponent is more of a type that cannot be defended, then Inzaghi, who is good at seizing opportunities, will be the starting point.

Under this strong competitive pressure, Baggio seemed quite excited after scoring an expanded score - this goal allowed him to tie Inzaghi and become the second scorer in the team, and also added a heavy weight to the head coach's mind.

As the team's head coach, Ranieri is naturally very clear about the fierce competition within the team. Not only on the front line, but even the midfielder's arrangement of midfielders is facing the trouble of happiness. Who makes Fiorentina have too many good players? Just pick out one of them is at least at the main level of the Serie A strong team...

However, Ranieri is quite supportive of this kind of healthy competition. In his opinion, as long as he can match the same player, the competition between players can bring more benefits to the team.

...

After Fiorentina led 2-0, Capello was still unwilling to announce his abandonment of this game. You should know that in the past fifteen rounds of the league, he was eight points behind the top team. This is absolutely unbearable for AC Milan, which has dominated Serie A for many years.

Especially his big boss, Mr. Berlusconi, the Italian media tycoon, has been praised by the media for "Milan No. 1 in the world" in the past few years. At the same time, he has been successfully elected as the Italian Prime Minister with football. Naturally, he hopes that AC Milan can continue to use his outstanding results to add weight to his future second-generation campaign. If he has not brought a heavyweight championship to the team for two consecutive years, even if he wins a league runner-up by the end of the season, he may not be able to escape the fate of being dismissed.

Although Capello, who has become a famous European coach, doesn't have to worry about his next home even if he is fired, he still hopes to make more contributions to the club when he ended his career in Milan when he was a player.

So, before re-teletting, Capello made some adjustments to the on-court lineup. He replaced Marco Simeone with his exhausted Savicevic, allowing the player who was the second striker to serve as the team's front midfielder. Boban, who replaced veteran Donadoni, took over Savicevic's baton and became the new organizational core. Capello's meaning was very clear. He wanted to fight for a little chance of winning by attacking at all costs.

After seeing Capello's substitution, Ranieri also began to dispatch troops. Edgar Davis came on the court to replace Rui Costa. The tumbler planned to use the crazy battle of the Dutch Boar to snatch the pass route of Boban. As long as the three forwards on Milan on the court could not receive the pass from his teammates, the so-called counterattack would be impossible to talk about.

Although Boban has outstanding skills, his hot personality has limited his development. In 1990, he was suspended by the Yugoslav Football Association for four months due to a stadium fight. As a result, he missed the Italian World Cup in the summer. Now, as he grows older, his temper is slightly restrained, but his old habits still tend to recur in this game under Davis's perseverance. Just now, Boban, who had just played for less than five minutes, waved his elbow at the Dutch because he could not bear Davis' frequent harassment. The Dutch wild boar hid smartly, but Boban's movements were clearly seen by the referee on duty, and immediately gave a yellow card to the Croatian midfielder as a warning.

After seeing Boban get a yellow card for his defense, Davis worked harder in the following time, as if he was sticking to Bo, making the Croatian midfielder have no energy to organize the attack. Davis's idea is very simple. Milan's two forwards are dealt with by two central defenders on his side, Dibiagio is more than enough to defend Simeone. Kripa, who makes up for the place everywhere, can guard against Albertini's in-fighting attack... Since there are only a few players AC Milan has independent offensive ability on the court, there is no problem with him putting his defensive energy into Boban completely!

The last ten minutes of the game were spent in chaos. AC Milan failed to recover the score through a strong attack and unfortunately lost to Fiorentina by zero to two.
