Chapter 600 The battle is coming

PS: This is an additional update for 130,000 recommendations. The next update is 133,000 recommendations, well, that's it.

Time flies quickly, and three days after the Fiorentine players returned from Rome, the calendar turned to May 13, which is the day of the second round between Fiorentine and Real Madrid.

On this night, countless Fiorentine fans flocked to Frankie Stadium to cheer for their beloved Purple Lily, praying that the team can reverse Real Madrid today and enter the Champions League final.

With the efforts of Fiorentine fans, only about 3,000 tickets for this game were missed by Real Madrid fans, and the remaining more than 40,000 goals were all sold out by Fiorentine fans. Many Fiorentine fans who failed to buy tickets did not choose to stay at home to watch the game, but gathered in the square outside the Frankie Stadium to watch the game from the big screen on the square.

Although they could not cheer for the team on the spot, these fans were still shouting enthusiastically off the court, hoping to contribute their strength to the team!

Real Madrid is quite tragic. Although Fiorentine fans and clubs are both very qualified and do not secretly make trouble for them in terms of accommodation and training (for example, in the middle of the night, the home team fans ran to the hotel where the away team players stayed to beat drums and set off firecrackers, deliberately interfering with the stay of the away team players), but when Real Madrid players stepped onto the stadium, they found that there was almost all purple in the stands, and there was only a little white they were familiar with, these white Knights were instantly messy.

"These damn Italians, you know they will definitely make trouble in the atmosphere of the stadium!" Due to the great pain in Vieri three years ago, Real Madrid captain Manuel Sanchis has no favoritism for Florence.

At the same time, the Fiorentine players were very moved by the fans' behavior and decided to exert all their strength in this game.

"Guys! You must not let the fans who support us so much!" As he walked to the stadium, Effenberg said that as the captain of Fiorentina in this game, the Tiger believed that he should take on the responsibility of boosting morale.

"No problem!" The players who had been suppressed for a long time because of the defeat in the first round, yelling in unison, shocking the referee next to them.

So, under the leadership of Effenberg, eleven Fiorentine players stepped onto the lawn and prepared to welcome the upcoming game.

Zhuang Mingge appeared in the VIP box at Frankie Stadium as always, paying attention to the life and death battle that decided Fiorentina's Champions League defending journey this season.

"Welcome to Frankie Stadium! The last game of the Champions League semi-final will be played in this stadium! In another game ended yesterday, Juventus from Italy tied with Bayern Munich away, eliminating his opponent with a total score of 3-1 to advance to the final. The result of this game tonight will determine whether another team that won the Champions League final ticket, whether it is Fiorentina or Real Madrid? Let's wait and see!"

"From the current situation, Real Madrid, who plays away, has a higher chance of advancing." As a special guest, Rijcard appeared in the live broadcast room. This former football superstar has played in Spain and Italy and has a certain understanding of Real Madrid and Fiorentina. Therefore, Sky TV specially invited him to explain the game this time. "In the first round of the match, Real Madrid won three-to-one, which gave Heinquez a high degree of freedom in the layout of the team in this game. Although Fiorentina scored an away goal, the overall score was behind Capello had to choose the strategy of taking the initiative to attack... So, if Fiorentina cannot suppress Real Madrid on both ends of the offense and defense, and surpassed the opponent more than two goals, then Purple Lily will lose the hope of completing the three consecutive championships of the Champions League!"

"Oh! Spain's King Juan Carlos I actually appeared in the VIP box at Frankie Stadium. I heard that the king is a Real Madrid fan, so he would appear here, and he should have come to support Real Madrid." At this time, the commentator took the conversation from Rijcard at the right time and continued his commentary work.

"Now let's talk about the starting lineup of both sides in this game. Real Madrid's away game is still the most commonly used four-four two. Goalkeeper Ilgena, four defenders are Zieg, Jero, Sanchis and Panucci from left to right. In the midfield, Karenbu serves as a single midfielder, Clarence Siddorf serves as a front midfielder, Raul and Victor are separated from the left and right wings. On the forward line, Croatian Jin left-foot Davao Suk and Yugoslav Mijatovic form a forward partner. In addition, Real Madrid also has Amavisca, Savio, Morientes, Guti and other elite soldiers on the bench, which allows Heinkes to better adjust the team's tactics according to the situation on the field."

"As for Fiorentina, which has a home advantage, since they must win over the opponent more than two goals in this game to ensure promotion, Fiorentina coach Capello made considerable adjustments to the starting lineup in this game, and the formation also changed from 442 in the first round to 433... Ronaldo, Vieri and Philip Inzagi appeared on the front line. Although this configuration weakened Fiorentina's defense to a certain extent, these three players had excellent attack power.

In order to prevent Real Madrid's defenders from acting rashly; among the three starting midfielders, Redondo and Effenberg formed a dual core, Dibiagio replaced Davis, who was suspended due to a red card, and appeared in the defensive midfielder; on the back line, Tordo's starting goalkeeper position was unbreakable, Robert Carlos and Zambrota, who were both good offense and defense, serve as left and right full-backs, and Nesta and Ferrara partnered in the middle, this pair of central defenders will face the challenge of Mijatovic and Davao Suk in this game."

"From this starting lineup, we can see that Capello is determined to play offensive cards in this game. As for using Ferrara and Nesta to partner with Stam instead of sending Stam, it is mainly because these two are first-class in defense skills and awareness, and are also quite fast. They can guarantee that they will not lose their disadvantage when fighting against Real Madrid's technical forward line... Although Stam's head-on ability is better than Ferrara, his turn speed is slow. I think this is why Capello puts him on the bench."

Rijkald's comments can be said to be just right. As soon as the Black Swan finished commenting, the referee blew the whistle to the start of the game!
