Chapter 293: Taking Back the Advantage
I'll take it! This is unscientific!
This was Zhuang Mingge's first reaction after seeing Zidane's goal like a flying immortal, and then he had a new idea: this guy actually published his peak work in the 2002 Champions League final six years in advance!
It can be imagined that after this game, Zidane will definitely shake the entire European football world with this amazing goal. Monaco, which lacks financial resources, will definitely not be able to keep him this summer.
By the way, Fiorentina is always scored by opponents to become famous by a goal. Zhuang Mingge thought with some depression. When he thought that Zidane's goal would make Fiorentina players serve as the background, he felt uncomfortable.
First, he was shot by the fledgling Pierro two years ago, making the young player famous; last year, a group of young players led by Guidolin hit a stick, which made a large number of young people famous, especially Ambrosini, who scored the winning goal; today, Fiorentina was hit by Zidane and half-turned and volleyed, which was really unlucky.
Just as Zhuang Mingge kept complaining, the Monaco players all rushed to Zidane, who scored an extremely exciting goal to equalize the score on the field for the team, and sang loudly around the Frenchman. The excited and distorted expression on their faces even made many fans mistakenly think that Monaco won the European Champions League championship.
The Fiorentine players felt a little incredible and depressed by their conceding. After all, from a normal perspective, there was no big omission in their defense just now, and the concealment was entirely due to Zidane's own inspiration.
Although part of the reason is that Davis did not follow Zidane in time, his teammates would not blame him for this. After all, they all saw how hard the Dutch tried in this game. The so-called failure to follow in time was just a step slower. This was completely within the normal defense range of the Dutch Wild Boars. As long as Zidane dared to stop the ball, Davis, who was following him, would immediately steal.
What's abnormal is just Zidane's foot flying fairy from the sky...
Because Monaco players were too excited, Merck had to run to the sidelines to remind them to return to their half as soon as possible to wait for the kick-off. If they were allowed to celebrate like this, Merck could directly blew the whistle to announce the end of the first half.
With the intervention of the referee, Monaco players returned to their half-time unwillingly.
By the way, when they returned, the Monaco players also made a small fool of themselves. In order to avoid the visiting team launching sneak attacks before they stood in a good position, they did not return to their own half together, but returned in groups of three or three, first Roa, Lebov, Ismail, then Dimeco and Candela... At the end were Henry and Trezege.
Shortly after Fiorentina re-telephoned the ball, the first half of the game ended with the referee's whistle. The players on both sides either frustrated or happy to return to the locker room along the player's passage. Wenger and Ranieli had to make corresponding arrangements for the team's tactics and personnel in the second half of the game in the locker room.
The short fifteen-minute halftime break passed quickly, and the war rekindled, and neither coaches on both sides did not make adjustments to the lineup on the court. This is normal, because the players on both sides performed well in the first half, and the conceding of goals was more due to the team's tactical style and the personal performance of the stars. Therefore, at this time, the team's random substitutions are likely to break the team's original good chemical reaction. Only when the players are physically exhausted, injured, or are ready to make some changes in the next game, Wenger and Ranieri will choose to substitute.
Monaco was the one who kicked off in the second half. They had just launched an attack and were intercepted by Fiorentina in the midfield.
Monaco wants to slow down the pace of the game so that Zidane can organize the offense more effectively. However, under the fierce pressing of Fiorentine players, their wishful thinking of slowly organizing the offense was lost. When several attackers in the frontcourt also began to participate in the defense without hesitation, even if the skills of Monaco players are excellent, they must carefully observe the movements around to prevent the possibility of being intercepted by the opponent in the midfield. After all, the attacks launched after the midfield are intercepted are often the most threatening, because the roles of the offense and defense are suddenly exchanged, and the formation of the defensive side naturally cannot be organized very quickly, which means that once the ball is intercepted by the midfield, a single shot will often appear.
For these forwards in Fiorentina, a single shot means scoring.
Under the fierce pressing of the Fiorentine players, Monaco players had no choice but to pass the ball as soon as possible. In the 54th minute, Zidane planned to pass directly to Henry, but Nesta slashed in front of Henry and broke the ball. Then he immediately passed the ball to Effenberg and asked him to organize the attack.
Effenberg dribbled Pire's press, then passed the ball to Djokaf on the left. Djokaf paused for a moment after receiving the ball, and then suddenly changed direction, dropping his old teammate Dimeco a distance, and then passed the ball directly to Ronaldo, who also ran to the left.
In the first half, Monaco's Pire often pulled to the left to participate in the offense. His team-up with Candela made the young Zambrota busy; and now, it's Fiorentina's turn to do so!
Ronaldo received the ball before Ismail. He first made a cross-cutting move, then hit the ball near the bottom line and forced a breakthrough!
Ismail only felt a gust of wind blowing by his side. Before he could react, the aliens dribbled the ball and broke through from the front!
Ismail, who came to his senses, immediately turned around and chased back desperately, but was depressed to find that the distance between the two was increasing...
When Ronaldo broke through to the near-bottom line, the aliens decisively made a high ball without hesitation. Batistuta, who was inserted in the back row, still jumped up and prepared to attack under the attack of Dakot and Leboff!
Under the attack of two defensive players on the opponent, Barty still barely grabbed the header. He is now less than five meters away from the goal. Judging from Barty's years of game experience, as long as he can gently push the ball, the goal will be almost certain!
Barty did it, and he jumped up hard, and finally hit the flying ball in the pinch of Leberf and Dacott. Although he felt very uncomfortable when he was pinched into a sandwich, Barty successfully hit the ball, even though he just rubbed it lightly!
The ball, affected by the force, changed its flight direction and rushed towards the goal quickly. Facing this close-range header, Roa only had time to wave his arm symbolically, and the ball had already flew over his head!
Then, Roa heard the sound of the net and the ball rubbing behind him.
Chapter completed!
