Juventus was very unhappy about it when they watched Fiorentina secure the league championship seven rounds ahead of schedule and also completed the feat of three consecutive league championships. However, no matter how unhappy they were, they could no longer change this situation. They could only try to regain the venue in the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals.

However, the Zebras have to face not only the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals with Fiorentina, but they also have to continue to work hard for the league rankings. Because after unexpectedly losing to Udinese at home, Ancelotti's Parma surpassed Juventus in the standings and ranked second in the standings with a slight advantage of one point!

This result made Juventus completely panicked, because according to the plan to expand the European Champions League next season announced by UEFA last month, although the number of places in the Serie A, which ranked first in total points in the European Cup, has been increased to four teams, only the top two in the league have the qualification to directly advance to the Champions League next season. The third and fourth places have to start from the qualifying round. This is simply unacceptable for Juventus, who has always regarded himself as a Serie A giant.

The old fox Mo has not considered using the influence of the Agnelli family to influence the referees to make profits, but the recent referee rectification campaign initiated by UEFA has made almost all referees dare not act rashly, for fear of being regarded as a typical case by the above to warn the monkey.

Therefore, the old Fox, who was unable to play tricks on the referee, had to tell the head coach Lippi to try his best to get back to the second place in the standings, otherwise he would not be able to convince other senior executives of the club to keep Silver Fox's job.

...

After winning the league championship early, Fiorentina only has one European Cup championship left this season. Although there are two records in the league waiting for Fiorentina to break, Capello doesn't care much about these things.

Whoever made the original record set by himself? No matter whether these records can be broken or not, his name will be written in the history of Serie A.

Capello's relaxed mentality has unknowingly affected the players in Fiorentina, allowing them to face the upcoming league with a relatively relaxed attitude.

On April 20, Fiorentina welcomed Roma, who had just experienced a pre-game change of coach at home. Old Sensi's choice was still so unexpected. After dismissing Argentine coach Carlos Bianchi, who had huge conflicts with both Gianni and Toti, he actually hired Czech Zeman, who was still coaching in the same city's arch rival in the first half of the season, to serve as the head coach of Roma!

On the other hand, because the big boss Cranioti's unauthorized intervention in the team's transfer work last summer, the cards in his hand were unable to realize his tactical ideas, which led to a sharp decline in the team's record. Zeman, who was driven out of Lazio, received an invitation from Old Sensi, just hesitated for a while and signed his name on the contract.

The Czechs wanted to tell their former boss Kranioti with facts under Lazio's nose that it was a complete mistake to drive him away!

After Zeman arrived in Rome, he immediately made some adjustments to the Red Wolves' lineup. The first person to be affected was Francesco Toti, who was not valued under Bianchi's tent.

The Czechs identified Totti as Rome's offensive core, allowing him to serve as No. 9 and a half on the court, and also stuffed him into the South American forward line that had been established for several years. They formed a brand new set of tridents to drive the attack of the trident and shoulder the responsibility of siegeing Rome in the next game.

Finally, the Czech even handed the captain's armband of the Rome team to the young man who was only twenty years old, which shows how Zeman valued Totti.

Totti, who was highly anticipated by the Czechs, was also quite successful. With the support of Ardal, Zeman and Roman fans, he unified the team's locker room as fast as possible, preparing to lead Roma out of the league's four-round victory dilemma.

Facing the fierce Red Wolf, Capello calmly sent a mixed lineup of main players and substitutes.

On the starting roster of Fiorentina, the goalkeeper and the defense line were completely consistent with the previous game, and no changes were made. On the one hand, because Roma's offensive speed was sharp enough, Capello did not dare to let Stam and Villejoward, who turned slowly, play; on the other hand, because there was another Champions League match between Fiorentina and Juventus three days later, and sending too many main players would inevitably affect this crucial game.

The biggest change is that in the midfield, Tomasi, Zanetti and Dibiagio, three local midfielders, built a defense line in front of the team's defenders. In order to destroy the offensive rhythm of Roma, Capello sent the same young Tomasi to implement a 360-degree close-fitting defense against Toti. The reason why he did not send a stronger Davis was mainly because Capello believes that with Toti's current strength, it would be enough to send Tomasi to deal with it. If Davis came on the court, it would affect his next arrangement and it would be a bit more worth the effort. In front of the three defensive midfielders, Rui Costa became the only organizational core on the Fiorentina field. Capello was actually bullying Roma, no top midfielder can defend the Portuguese on the court, otherwise he would rather send Effenberg and Redondo, who were more in the back.

In terms of the front line, Bati and Inzaghi became the starters, Cruise and Glencier were on standby on the bench, Ronaldo and Vieri, whose status in the team has risen sharply this season, did not make it into the roster. Capello did this to obviously keep his strength in the mid-week Champions League match.

There is nothing worth talking about in the process of the game. Although it has been less than a week since becoming the head coach of Rome, Zeman has begun to gradually imprint his coaching style on the Red Wolf.

The new trident composed of Totti, Fonseca and Balbo is indeed very strong in offense. Even Capello, a formation that attaches extreme importance to defense, failed to stop the Romans' goal: in the 17th minute, Totti's goal guarded by the goal was broken by Totti on the edge of the penalty area, and Roma led Fiorentina 1-0 away.

Although it has made great progress in offense, Zeman's team is still as bad as ever in defense. Florence players proved this to Zeman shortly after conceding the ball.

In the 22nd minute, Costa took the ball and got rid of the Roma player who was robbed on the spot, and then sent a straight pass. The ball slipped past Ardale and came to Inzagi, who successfully counter-offside. Of course, Super Pipo would not waste this good opportunity to score, and a clever shot helped Fiorentina equalize the score.

In the 73rd minute, the Roman player became a little impatient after being unable to conquer for a long time. As a result, Costa seized the opportunity again. He and Glencier, who played in the bench in Inzaggi, made a classic direct pass and diagonal insertion. The Danes, who obtained a single shot, fully utilized his speed advantage, dribbled the ball all the way and "brought" the ball into the Roma's goal, rewritten the game into two-to-one!
