PS: This is the first update today. The recommended overtime update is 19,000 and will be sent to the end of work. I hope everyone will support it~

In the European Super Cup final, Fiorentina beat Barcelona with a score of 4-1. This result made people recall the not-so-distant 1994 Champions League final.

In that final, Barcelona, ​​known as the "Dream Team" by the Catalan media, was killed by AC Milan, full of wounded soldiers, and finally ended with a crushing defeat of zero to four.

Although the attention of this Super Cup final is not as good as the Champions League final in Athens, it can be seen from the starting lineup of the two teams and the live broadcast of the game that both sides have absolutely not let the ball go in the game.

It is precisely because of this game that Barcelona was once again sneered by Madrid media, and Barcelona Chairman Nunes once again began to carefully consider whether the tikitaka tactical system created by Cruyff really has a life-threatening existence...

At the post-match press conference, Van Gaal severely accused Fiorentina, claiming that their tactics were simply putting a bus in front of the goal. The game style was too ugly and it was not worthy of the title of the strongest team in Europe.

"I think Mr. Van Gaal should manage his players first and then evaluate my Fiorentina." Unexpectedly, Capello did not get angry because of Van Gaal's fierce remarks, but began to change the topic quietly. "I believe that everyone who has watched this game knows very well what Barcelona players perform on the court after we led 2-0."

Capello's words happened to hit Van Gaal's life goal. The Dutch coach certainly knew in his heart that Barcelona players would violate their orders on the court.

Although he was very annoyed by the players' disobedience, Van Gaal did not intend to make such internal problems public. After all, it is a taboo to disclose internal contradictions in front of the media. Therefore, the Dutch originally planned to secretly launch an internal rectification campaign after the press conference to establish his authority within the team.

However, what Van Gaal did not expect was that Capello actually made this matter clear at the press conference!

Van Gaal could have predicted what kind of articles will be published in major sports newspapers tomorrow after Capello said this, and what kind of comments will be made for those Barcelona veterans who are dissatisfied with him in their interviews.

I have to say that when it comes to getting along with big-name stars, Van Gaal is definitely the worst group of all the top head coaches. In his coaching resume, he has had conflicts with many big-name stars, which has caused internal strife and affected his record and caused him to be dismissed. For example, when he first coached Barcelona, ​​the conflict with Rivaldo and Figo; when he entered the palace second, he had a conflict with Riquelme; in the later stages of Bayern coaching, he was even strangers to most of the stars such as Ribery and Robben, and was finally kicked out of the team by the unbearable Bayern senior management.

Like Mourinho, although many people don’t like him, few players he coached say bad things about him. Of course, except for the cheating goods in Real Madrid…

Even Capello, who is called the ruthless and ruthless, does not start high and end low everywhere like Van Gaal, and makes enemies everywhere within the team.

However, the dilemma Van Gaal will face in Barcelona has nothing to do with Fiorentina. After the European Super Cup, the entire Fiorentina team flew back to Italy to prepare for the first league game of the new season that will be held a week later.

A week later, on August 31, the Serie A ushered in the first round of the 1997-98 season. The Italian Football Association specially arranged the match between Florence, the defending champion, and Udinese as the opening match of the new season.

Udinese, who played at home, did not make much changes in the starting lineup. Zacheroni, an offensive madman, lined up a very extreme attack formation of three, four, and three.

Among Udinese's eleven starting players, the center position is still German Vierhof, and on both sides are Brazilian Amoruso and local striker Poggy; the Udinese defense line, led by Danes Martin Jorgensen, and Tulsi, Helvig and others, has not changed any changes this summer.

Udinese, who has always been a small business, has retained all the main players of the first team this summer. After all, the league reform bill passed by the Football Association under the pressure of the professional league this summer has put a lot of pressure on Old Pozzo, forcing him to make a certain degree of fine-tuning of the club's business strategy.

After Old Pozzo took the initiative to seek changes, although Udinese still tends to find young people with good quality and low price and train them to strengthen the team's bench depth and overall strength, in order to ensure that the team can maintain sufficient competitiveness in the increasingly fierce Serie A stadium, and in order to ensure that the team will not be given financial punishment by the professional league for the reason of "bad performance" in the future when entering the European arena, Old Pozzo did not sell the team's main players at high prices like in previous seasons.

After talking about Udinese, let's look at Florence again.

In order to get a good start to the team's journey in the new season after getting an opening, Capello unreservedly sent all the main players in his hands - Fiorentina, which still faces third-line battles this season. If you cannot try to get points while the players are relatively physically energetic at the beginning of the season, if you try to get points and widen the gap between the points with other teams, then by the sprint stage in March and April next year, Zi Lily, who has not been able to widen the gap in points, will face a situation that Zi Lily, who has not been able to widen the gap in points, will be quite passive.

Goalkeeper Toldo, four defenders, were Robert Carlos, Stam, Nesta and Zambrota. The reason why Ferrara was not sent was mainly because the high-altitude advantage of Udinese's German bomber was too obvious. If Ferrara, who was only 1.8 meters tall, starts, it may be possible that this German center would be bullied like...

In the midfield, Rui Costa served as the midfielder, Davis and Thomassi, two guys who were dubbed by their teammates in the team, were responsible for protecting the Portuguese behind. Redondo appeared in a further back position as always, forming a dual core with Costa in front to control the team's rhythm.

On the forward line, Argentine god Batistuta finally won a starting spot with his outstanding form during the team training, and his partner was last season's league golden boot Philip Inzagi.

A powerful center and an opportunist master, and behind him are a passer master like Costa. It is obvious that Capello plans to fight the Udinese counterattack in the first league game.
