Although Fiorentina has the initiative on the court, it is still quite difficult to break Manchester United's goalkeeper at this time. After all, at this time, Manchester United's goalkeeper was still the Danes Schmeichel. This old goalkeeper performed quite stably in this game, saving Fiorentina's many shots.

When Manchester United's defense became the laughing stock of the public, they still had to wait until after Schmeichel transferred to the Red Devils in 1999. Although their defensive quality declined at this time, they were generally more reliable. Unlike later, the various low-level mistakes of the four butterflies, Taybe, Bosnitch, Buttz and Howard could be engraved into a CD as a classic counterexample for goalkeeper teaching.

Although he always felt like he was in a strong position and was unable to score, the Fiorentine players who had experienced the storms in the previous few seasons were not anxious. They still slowly turned their feet back and forth in the midfield, mobilizing Manchester United's defense line, and from time to time they would pass a forward kick to Ronaldo and others to test whether the home team's defense line was still solid.

If the ball is intercepted by the opponent at this time, the Fiorentine player will immediately press from all directions to interrupt the opponent's counterattack, regain the ball's power into his own hands, and then a new round of inverted feet.

In their opinion, the one who is anxious should be Manchester United, who plays at home. At most, Fiorentina can pass the ball to a 90-minute draw and win a away game. After the training of two pragmatic coaches, Ranieri and Capello, the increasingly unruly Fiorentine players will not think that there is anything wrong with their approach.

In front of these British players with "rough" skills, Florence players have enough confidence to torture them technically.

Manchester United players were scolding Fiorentina for being despicable and shameless, and they could play so conservatively, and they could not tell the temperament of a wealthy family at all... But then again, who made them unable to compete with Fiorentina at the technical level?

After hiring Mullensten and Moniz as the team's technical directors, the technical level of Fiorentine players has indeed increased, but the offensive pass control system that Zhuang Mingge wants to build with Florence characteristics has not yet been completed. However, after experiencing the precipitation of two Italian coaches, Ranieri and Capello, and integrating Gulfren's thoughts, it has become increasingly indestructible, forming a new defensive system.

When there is no ball right, you can use traditional Italian chain defense to control the field space to block it layer by layer. When there is a ball under your feet, you can also use your skills to continuously control the rhythm of the game to avoid the ball right falling into the opponent's hands and pass it everywhere. At the same time, you can pass it forward from time to time to cause a sudden attack.

Where have Manchester United players seen such an alternative defense? In the past, they just fell down in the backcourt to kill time. Seeing Florence's aggressive defense is naturally a bit irritating.

Cantona and others wanted to cut off the ball of the Fiorentine players and then counterattack, but the players on the Fiorentine field were already very good under the training of Mullensten and others. The continuous passes made these Manchester United frontcourt players run all over the field but couldn't grab the ball.

When the game reached the 23rd minute, Fiorentina, who had been controlling the rhythm of the game, finally waited for a good opportunity to score.

Schmeichel took the ball with big feet, and Beckham, who received the ball, took the opportunity to attack along the right.

Beckham, who was highly praised by the English media, has been very proud recently. Not only did he squeeze out Kanchersky and Gillespie, but he also defeated the Czechman Pobosky, who shined in the European Cup in the team competition this season. His super long-distance scoring goal against Wimbledon in August last year made him famous and became the well-deserved No. 1 star in English football!

Just as Beckham looked up at the running positions of Cole and Cantona, intending to let Florence see his unique skills, the full moon scimitar, and also let out a breath of anger that was suppressed by the other party, a purple figure suddenly rushed over and broke the ball under his feet in an instant!

"It's Edgar Davis! The Dutch Boars once again showed his excellent midfield coverage to the fans, cut off Beckham's ball and Fiorentina's counterattack!"

After losing the ball, Beckham did not stand there and was upset, but immediately launched a counter-attack on the spot. This is also one of the tactics specially designed by Ferguson for Manchester United. Although Beckham's defensive level is very average, his professional quality has always been very high and he still unswervingly implements the head coach's tactical intentions.

However, Davis is not a fool. After breaking the ball, he did not stick the ball, but immediately passed the ball horizontally to Redondo, one of the double cores of the midfield.

While observing his teammate's running, Argentina's midfielder did not stop moving forward. He first dunked and passed Scholes, who was returning to defense, and then played a two-pass and one-way match with Carlos on the left to jump over to defend. He passed the ball and rushed back to defend. He then accelerated the ball and rushed to within 30 meters of Manchester United's goal.

While Redondo was moving forward, his teammates also began to move their positions: Carlos ran forward along the left road, and his forwards attracted the attention of Gary Neville and Beckham; Effenberg, who was originally standing in front of Redondo, moved to the right, attracting Roy Keane; Davis was wandering in front of Redondo, and his running forced Scholes to spend some energy to defend against Redondo's passing, so he could not rush up to press the opponent as soon as possible.

So, at this moment, almost all Manchester United midfielders were attracted by Fiorentine players, and no one came up to intercept Argentina's midfielder.

Naturally, Redondo would not waste this opportunity. He pretended to pass the ball to Carlos on the left, then gently shook his left ankle and directly pointed the ball towards Manchester United's defense!

The goal is behind David May and Paris!

The ball drew an arc in the air and then landed directly to the right of the penalty area. Ronaldo, who saw Redondo passing the ball immediately accelerated and threw away the bulky Parist, raised his right foot and stopped the ball steadily!

Paris and David May want to chase back, but it takes several seconds for them to turn around. When they turn around, Ronaldo may even pass the goalkeeper...

"Ronaldo! Single shot!" the commentator shouted excitedly.

Ronaldo, who had removed the ball, quickly glanced at Schmeichel's position, then swung his right leg and shot the ball out!

Schmeichel also reacted immediately, and he instinctively rushed to the near corner of the goal. What surprised him was that the ball Ronaldo shot did not arrive as expected.

Was fooled by the Brazilian, this guy was not shooting at all, but passing the ball - Schmeichel just realized this when he heard the sound of the ball rubbing against the net, and the whistle that the referee announced the goal was valid.
Chapter completed!
