PS2: Let me talk about the book friends group here. The group numbers are three, seven, zero, five, four, nine, nine, one, nine, and the verification answer is NTR Knight, well, that's it.
Nedved's goal instantly ignited the enthusiasm of thousands of Juventus fans who came with the team. These people applauded happily in the visiting team fan area of the Frankie Stadium stands, which attracted the bad gaze of the surrounding Fiorentine fans - they dare to shout so much in our territory. You are seeking death!
As a result, a fierce conflict broke out between the Fiorentine fans and Juventus fans in the stands. Fortunately, because the guardrails isolated the fans of both sides in two areas, they could only provoke each other verbally, and it was absolutely impossible to take action. Therefore, the extent of this conflict was limited to verbal shots and there was no injury to anyone.
While the fans of both sides were competing in the stands, Mourinho's face on the sidelines was also ashen. Until this time, the Portuguese young coach, who had always been full of confidence, realized that he had underestimated Juventus' energy after all.
"I miscalculated it, but I didn't expect that Nedved would shoot directly under that situation." Although Mourinho still maintained a light expression after the team conceded the ball, this does not mean that the Portuguese's heart is the same at this moment. "It seems that I still underestimated the skills of Juventus and Trapatoni. If I had known that such a situation would happen, I would have arranged it before."
Mourinho has made arrangements for defending Nedved and other heavy gunners to shoot long shots, but in the Portuguese's vision, Nedved and others should pull out enough space through continuous transmission before shooting, rather than forcing the shot like gambling under the attack of Gattuso and De Rossi like before. Because such shots are very susceptible to interference from the opponent's defensive players, thus deviating from the sight.
However, it is obvious that Nedved's luck this time is really amazing. The Czech Ironman's long-range shot is not only strong but also fast, but the ball also heads straight to the dead corner of the goal. Therefore, even a goalkeeper of Buffon's level is powerless to do anything about this long-range shot at the world wave level.
Nedved's goal can be said to be crucial. It not only stabilized Juventus' morale at this critical moment, but also allowed the Zebras to regain the initiative on the field, allowing them to feel at ease to play Fiorentina's counterattack in the next time, rather than having to press the formation to take the initiative in order to win the game, as at the beginning, as did at the beginning, in order to win the game.
So, after the game restarted, Juventus players based on defense took the initiative to retreat and shrink their formation to lure Fiorentine players who were behind in the score to attack. In their opinion, as the side behind in the score, Fiorentine players should now be in a hurry to equalize the score. In this way, they who focus on defensive counterattacks can get more scoring opportunities.
However, to Juventus players' expectations, facing this kind of situation that is quite unfavorable to their side, the Fiorentine player did not rush to launch an offensive after re-telephone, but began to fall in the half under the command of Pirlo, and seemed to have no intention of attacking at all.
What is this situation? Doesn’t Fiorentina want to win this game? I found that the opponent’s actions were completely inconsistent with what they expected. Some Juventus players were confused, but they did not dare to just relax their vigilance. God knows if this was done intentionally by Fiorentina. If they just relaxed and their opponents seized the opportunity to equalize the score, they would be in tears at that time.
What Juventus players don't know is that this is a temporary decision made by Pirlo after careful consideration, in order to avoid letting the team fall into the trap set by the Zebras. In Pirlo's view, his task is to ensure that the team does not continue to lose the ball before Mourinho makes specific adjustments. As for equalizing the score, it is better to leave it to the head coach for consideration.
To be honest, Pirlo would do this is actually a helpless move. Who made Mourinho send out three defensive midfielders in the starting lineup, but only three players left in the frontcourt (including Pirlo), which made Pirlo not have enough staff to execute even if he wanted to take the initiative to attack. Therefore, with limited personnel on the offensive end, Pirlo could only choose to stabilize the situation first and wait for the order from Mourinho.
At this time, Mourinho, who had already walked out of his self-blame state, finally came up with a countermeasure. He first drove all the players on the bench to warm up, so that Trapatoni could not judge his real intention to substitution; next, Mourinho took advantage of the team's throw-in opportunity to attract Zanbrotta to face-to-face advice, and ended the brief conversation before Rossetti arrived.
Mourinho knew that after Nedved broke through Fiorentina's goal, his strategy of focusing on defensive counterattack in this game had completely failed. If a substitution adjustment was made in the first half, it would not only slap him in the face, but also make the players who were replaced. Therefore, Mourinho could only let the team continue to implement the previous tactics and make arrangements until the halftime break.
After receiving the instructions from Mourinho, the Fiorentine players carried out well. The trio of De Rossi, Gattuso and Marklele formed a big net in front of the penalty area, blocking most of Juventus' offenses outside the penalty area. Moreover, they suffered a loss on Nedved and paid more attention to blocking the shooting route in the subsequent time and no longer gave Juventus players room to shoot.
In this way, until the first half of the game entered the injury time period, although Fiorentina did not launch a few decent offensives against Juventus' goal, the Zebras did not expand the score again, maintaining the zero-to-one score until the 45th minute of the game.
However, when the fourth official announced three minutes of stoppage time on the sidelines, Fiorentina suddenly exerted force. Pirlo made a continuous long pass near the center circle and hit Zebina and Gala behind, while Vincent and Milito seized two of the opportunities and formed an attack, which instantly made Juventus' goal in front of the goal in panic!
