Chapter 71 Piacenza's Counterattack

After the passionate celebration, the game began again. Compared with before the start of the game, Fiorentina was full of morale and confidence. The three midfielders in the midfield were more active in running and interception. Dilivio and Camorani had a solid defense behind him, and the team led with another goal, and they were more daring to get the ball, control the ball and break through.

Piacenza began to be fooled by Florence, and the troops were restrained in the formation, and the defense was destroyed by Chen Yu with his superb shooting skills. They were originally stronger and fell behind in the opening 7 minutes.

During the minute of Fiorentina celebration, Piacenza's head coach Carni made a simple adjustment to his players' positions and playing style. The original four midfielders were parallel positions, but now they have become diamond positions. At the same time, the two full-backs strengthened their offense and could not open the situation from the middle. Carni decided to attack from the wing, taking advantage of the weaknesses of the opponent's three defenders, avoid the opponent's thick midfield and play their defenders.

Carni is Piacenza's legendary coach. It was he who brought Piacenza to the Serie A for the first time and has been relegated for many years. When Piacenza fell from the relegation zone this season, Piacenza's chairman Galilee once again invited him out of the mountain to act as a firefighting coach. However, Piacenza was unable to return and eventually fell into Serie B. However, this was not Carni's fault. His tactical level and insight into the game are still the best among the 24 coaches in Serie B.

After Carni made adjustments to the team, Piacenza, who did not have much pressure on victory or defeat, gradually stabilized the situation and began to use his breakthroughs on the wing to constantly threaten Fiorentina's defense.

Seeing Piacenza stable under the steady and moderate command of Carni, Florence's chairman Dela Valle couldn't help but say to Lukesi: "Some coaches are suitable for playing Serie A, some coaches are suitable for playing Serie B. You see, Carni's performance in Serie A is not as good as Casinva, but Casinva is not as relaxed as Carni."

"The tactic requirements of these two levels of league tactics are different. Serie A pays more attention to technology and awareness, and the rules are more European. Serie B pays more attention to physical and confrontation, and the rules are relatively loose. Coaches who are used to playing Serie A will definitely not be suitable for Serie B. Similarly, it is difficult for coaches who are used to playing Serie B to be suitable for Serie A. In fact, there is a coach who is good at playing Serie B at home. We should consider him at that time." Lu Kessi knew that Delavalais and Casinva had conflicts, so he lies and deliberately touched Delavalais's heart.

Dela Valais said: "Which one?"

"Mondonico, he has led several teams including Atlanta and Torino to enter Serie A, and is known as an expert in the AFC." Lukesey said.

Dela Valle pondered for a moment and said, "The league has just passed five rounds. Let's wait and see. After all, Casinva led Fiorentina to C2. If the team's performance still does not improve, we will make plans."

Lucasey sighed: "Mr. Delavalais, you are so generous. If it were Mr. Morati, Casinva has gone home for tea."

Galley saw Lukesey's flattery look and was a little disgusted. He turned his eyes to the field and no longer looked at Lukesey's villainous face.

The situation on the field has now formed a stalemate. Fiorentina controls the midfield and uses two centers Chen Yu and Rigano to suppress Piacenza. After Piacenza focuses on the wing, the threat of offense increases. Both sides have offensive defenses. No one can change the score of 1:0 on the field for a while.

At this time, it depends on who makes the mistake first, or which player can have a flash of inspiration to break the balance on the court.

Compared with the two teams, the lagging Piacenza's offense is more intense. From the perspective of risk, conceding one goal is a loss, conceding two goals is also a loss. Piacenza is more able to accept conceding the ball, while Fiorentina is now leading one to zero. If they score, they almost locked in the victory, but if they concede the ball, the advantage of leading disappears, so Fiorentina is even more reluctant to accept conceding the ball, so they play more calmly.

In the 25th minute of the game, Piacenza striker Mangni, who said he wanted to score a hat trick before the game, made a strong effort.

The ball broke through Fiorentina's left side and passed into the middle lane. Under the interference of the defense of Fiorentina's back midfielder Gao Fei, the ball was not well passed, but there were only three people in the back line of Fiorentina, and the position gap between the three people was relatively large. Mangani alertly left the middle of the penalty area and ran to the front point. The central defender Viari did not dare to follow him, because after he left, he could only rely on the back midfield to fill it in the middle lane. If the opponent's attack in the back row, it would be difficult for the back midfield to defend, and even if he followed, he might not be able to catch up. Viari rationally chose to wait.

Central defender Viari did not follow, and Magio on his left side slowed down one step and was not in place, which allowed Mangni to find a chance to head the ball.

Mangany jumped high, swung the ball to the back corner of the goal.

Fiorentine goalkeeper Sejavi stood in the center of the goal. Seeing Mangani grab the front point, he began to move forward. At this time, Mangani headed the ball to the back corner, and he had no choice but to stand and wait and see, hoping that the opponent's shot was not accurate enough.

However, Mangani scored four goals in the first five games, his footwork and ball luck were excellent. The ball was accurately approached to the back post and flew into the net.

1:1

Mangany equalized the score for Piacenza.

After scoring the goal, Mangni ran to the stands of Piacenza fans, jumped up and waved his fists hard at the stands.

"Piacenza will win!"

"You have Chinese Chen! We have Mangany!"

All the fans of Fiorentina were silent, only 5,000 Piacenza fans were shouting arrogantly. The first goal scored by Fiorentina, the fans of Piacenza did not think that Fiorentina was so strong, they all thought that Chen Yu stole a goal. Now Piacenza scored a goal, they believed that this was the embodiment of the strength of both sides.

Piacenza's head coach Kani was not as impulsive as Casingva, but when he scored, he couldn't help but rush back to the coach's seat and hugged his assistants tightly.

Seeing the score being equalized, Casinva's face suddenly became gloomy. Now it seems that both sides have returned to the same starting line. However, the morale of the tied party has risen, and the morale of losing the ball has been set. Piacenza must have the upper hand in the subsequent game. This is a big blow to Fiorentina, which was still unstable before the game.

In addition to the morale setback, Fiorentina no longer has a tactical advantage. 25 minutes before the opening, Fiorentina's 352 formation seized the weak point of the opponent's midfield and cut off the connection between Piacenza's three lines. Chen Yu's goal was also an attack launched by the midfielder who cut off Piacenza's long pass. With Piacenza's gradual adjustment, they got the opportunity to send the ball to the penalty area on the wing. Fiorentina's advantage gradually lost, and Piacenza used his skillful cooperation and slightly strong strength to gain the upper hand.

"Press up and attack! Follow up on both sides!"

Piacenza's head coach Carni is indeed very experienced. After leading, he went to the sidelines to make forward gestures to his players, taking the opportunity to expand his advantage and overtake the score.

Generally, at this time, Casinva chose to strictly guard the defense line, stabilize the position, and then slowly compete with his opponents. However, this time Casinva was not as conservative as before. Like Carney, he waved his arms and let his players press from the middle and gave Piacenza a try.

Both sides don’t care about their weaknesses being caught by their opponents. Beating their opponents to death is equivalent to two people stabbing each other at each other with knives to see who will knock down whom first.

This style of play is not appreciated by the smart and rational Italian coaches. They think it is a crazy and foolish style, but it is the most attractive to the fans. Both sides set up a team to attack and score many goals, which is much more exciting than a zero-to-zero game.

Under the influence of Italian football, Italian fans have better tactical awareness than fans in other leagues, but fans are fans. They just want to appreciate and be happy. It is impossible to be as utilitarian as coaches and players. They still prefer games with more goals.

"Come on Florence!"

"Come on Piacenza!"

There was a noise in the stands again, and fans on both sides supported their teams with applause and shouts, encouraging them to perform better in the more intense battles.

During the offensive battle, both sides put their troops in the offense, with a total of 11 players. As more players were invested in the offense, fewer players were defending. At this time, both sides had opportunities. At this time, it was not about who had more opportunities or who had fewer opportunities, but about who had stronger ability to seize opportunities.

Piacenza, whose morale is rising, gets the chance first.

In the 28th minute of the game, Piacenza used his skillful cooperation to pass the ball from the backcourt to the midfield. After the midfield encountered Fiorentina's fierce interception, their forward Rizio quickly pulled the side and responded. Toto, who assisted the midfield, hanged the ball over Fiorentina's midfield and found Rizio. Before Bachis made up for defense, he passed the ball into the penalty area and found his teammate Mangni.

After scoring a goal, Mangani was firmly watched by Fiorentina's central defender Viari.

Viari is not a simple character. Although he is just Perugia's substitute, he has been practicing in Serie A for many years and has been deeply acquainted with the true meaning of Italian defense. Moreover, he can play in full-back center backs, with excellent speed, height, technology and awareness, and is a rare talent on the back line. So Casingva dares to use him to play a single central defender in this game.

Mangni had no way to get rid of Viari's defense, but Piacenza's midfielders Lusendi, Diena and Krambo all quickly inserted. Lusendi and Krambo had already rushed into the penalty area. Gao Fei and Longo, who were guarding them, were thrown out of half of their positions, and the situation was in danger.

Lusendi grabbed the front point and Krambo grabbed the back point, and the two jumped up and headed the ball almost at the same time.

Longo and Gao Fei also jumped up. Even though they knew they couldn't touch the player, they had to jump up and interfere.

During this emergency, Gao Fei showed that his ball maker was not as good as Italian midfielder. Although Longo also jumped up, his hand was secretly pulling down Crambo's jersey. Gao Fei was worried that Corina would see him, and he would use his body to hit his opponent Lusendi.

The defensive movements are different, and the results are also different.

Krambo was pulled up and the height was not enough, so he rubbed the ball slightly, but this made Lusendy behind him suffer because the ball's flight route changed. However, when Lusendy felt that he could not touch the ball, his body was hit and instead touched the ball.
