PS: In the new week, I continue to ask for recommendation votes here. I hope everyone can continue to support me. Thank you everyone~

In this Serie A match with Venice, Zhuang Mingge did not go to the scene with the team to watch the game, but sat in front of the TV with Groz and Karin.

In Zhuang Mingge's view, although Recoba was in a very good state after being loaned to Venice and led the league's deputy squad leader Venice to play a sensation all the way out of the relegation zone, the Uruguayan striker's advantages and disadvantages are extremely obvious. As long as targeted arrangements are made, it is still no problem for Fiorentina to win a away game.

However, when he saw the starting lineup of Venice in the TV screen, he couldn't help but coughed: "I'll just pick it up, what's going on? Why is this guy's name on the starting lineup of Venice!"

It turned out that what surprised Zhuang Mingge was a fashionable and unknown player, a young forward from Romania - Adrian Mutu!

This Romanian striker, who had never played for Venice in his history, actually joined this relegation club in this world. It was this unexpected situation that made Zhuang Mingge show such surprise.

"Hey? Tony, are you talking about the young forward named Adrian Mutu?" Hearing Zhuang Mingge's question, Karin, who knew the current situation of Serie A clubs, thought for a while and quickly gave the answer.

It turns out that this is the impact of Zhuang Mingge in promoting the reform of the Serie A League. In the original history, Venice, which lacks financial resources, did not have enough transfer fees to other teams to poach the players they like; but in this world, since the sale price of the TV broadcasting rights of the Serie A League is many times higher than in history, this change has greatly improved the financial situation of the participating teams in Serie A, so the small and medium-sized Serie A will naturally have more sufficient funds to introduce their favorite players.

"So, after getting a large amount of TV broadcasting fees, the Venetians took action during the winter break and bought both Recoba and Mutu?" After hearing Karin's answer, Zhuang Mingge realized that the problem was himself. "So, why didn't Venice introduce Mutu last summer? Why did he have to wait until now?"

"Well, it is said that this is the idea that the Venice boss himself made. Before the start of the season, the chairman seemed to think that with the Venice lineup configuration at that time, he could achieve the goal of staying in relegation, so he spent all the broadcast fee to invest in and make profits, and did not strengthen the team." Karin explained awkwardly when she thought of the news about Venice she had read.

"..." Zhuang Mingge was speechless. He really didn't expect that there were actually many people in this world who were short-sighted and only caring about the eyes.

Well, the fact that this weird chairman of Venice is so stingy is also an interesting story in Italian football.

"I didn't expect that Venice actually had two little guys, Mutu and Recoba at the same time... This game is probably going to be difficult to play." Zhuang Mingge, who knew Recoba and Mutu's ability on the offensive end, analyzed it in his mind and found that Fiorentina, who played as a substitute, wanted to win this opponent away, and seemed to have to go through a hard battle.

After all, Recoba and Mutu are both forwards who can score in the 30-meter area of ​​the frontcourt. They can pass, break through, and seize opportunities and score shots. They don’t need to wait for opportunities in the penalty area at all. Faced with such an attack combination, the central defender formed by Matrazi and Hypia is strong and can complete the defensive tasks in the penalty area well, but Voger and Gattuso, who are starting and midfielders, are a complete loophole. With their current abilities and experience, it is difficult to become a reliable barrier in the Fiorentina defense line.

At the same time, considering that Voger and Gattuso are prone to fouls when defending, giving their opponents many opportunities for set pieces in the frontcourt, this is also an opportunity that Venice can take advantage of in the game. With a set piece master like Recoba playing in the team, if Venice does not fully utilize the Uruguayan's strengths, that is really mentally retarded.

The process of the game was as worried by Zhuang Mingge. After the opening whistle, Mutu, a guy who was almost versatile on the offensive end, echoed Recoba on the side. The Uruguayan striker who did not need to carry the team alone and burst out amazing energy in this game. Under the siege of the Fiorentine player, the "Chinese boy" broke through the goal guarded by Tordo in the 15th and 27th minutes of the game with the help of two frontcourt free kicks!

What is most worth mentioning is that the Uruguayan scored almost exactly the same position as the two free kicks, and the ball's flying trajectory was almost exactly the same. The tricky shooting angle made Toldo, who was 1.96 meters tall, could only sigh.

Then, Venice took advantage of the opportunity of Fiorentine players' eagerness to equalize the score, deliberately shrinking their defense line to lure Fiorentine's formation to press forward significantly, thus gaining room for a quick counterattack. Recoba and Mutu, who remained in the frontcourt as counterattack arrows, were responsible for completing the final blow!

Novelino (Venice head coach) quickly achieved results. In the 38th minute of the game, Voger's pass to Pirlo was intercepted by a Venetian player and launched a long pass counterattack. The high-speed propulsion Mutu cut into the penalty area after tricking Madawikia back to defense. After attracting Tordo's attention, he hit the middle. Recoba, who followed up, easily pushed and shot, widening the score to three to zero!

In this way, with Recoba's extraordinary hat trick, Venice, who played at home, ended the first half with a score of 3-0, which made everyone who thought that the leader Fiorentina would easily win this game before the game was stunned and broke glasses all over the floor!

When the referee blew the whistle to the end of the first half, Capello, with a pale face, immediately turned his head and walked into the player channel. At this time, he could be said to be full of anger. Although Recoba's hat trick was partly lucky, it is undeniable that the performance of the Fiorentine player in the first half was simply disastrous.

Needless to say, Gattuso and Voger, who made many fouls in defense, gave Venice a lot of opportunities for set-pieces in the frontcourt. The performance of Inzagi and Dinatale on the forward line was also disappointing. The two almost became invisible people in the iron barrel formation set up by the Venetians. They had not practiced shooting several times, let alone pulled space for their teammates.

Humph, have you not been baptized by a hairdryer for too long? Are these little balls itchy again and want to be beaten? Capello thought viciously on the way to the visiting team's locker room.

However, Capello, who was depressed for the first half, was not overwhelmed by the anger. He clearly realized that the team now does not need meaningless roar or criticism, but needs to find a way to reverse the extremely unfavorable situation in front of him, and at the same time, he needs to regain the morale of the team that has almost fallen to the bottom.

Otherwise, Capello would have no help even if he had to turn on a hundred hair dryers during the intermission.
Chapter completed!
