By the way, in this key battle, Roberto Baggio and panucci still didn’t get a minute to play. When the former sat on the bench for 90 minutes, the latter was directly driven to the stands by Silver Fox to watch the performance of his teammates.
Therefore, after the Nerazzurri was defeated by Fiorentina and unfortunately fell to the door of the Italian Cup final, many media and experts believed that Lippi, the coach of the team, had an unshirkable responsibility. Silver Fox would be swept out of the house by Moratti for failing to lead the team to make a breakthrough in the league and the Champions League as before!
However, Mo Da’s boss’s action made these people who wanted to watch the fun break their glasses. Moratti not only firmly expressed his support for Lippi when interviewed by reporters, but also announced that he would continue to invest in the transfer market this summer to make Silver Fox more abundant to build Inter Milan according to his ideas.
Generally speaking, Moratti has always been regarded as lenient to the players and harsh to the head coach. This time at Lippi, he and the players chose to continue to believe in Silver Fox instead of supporting him. He likes Roberto Baggio very much!
Moratti’s move naturally hurt Roberto Baggio’s selfesteem and Lippi, who is already the king of fire and water. After learning the news, he immediately said that he would submit a transfer application to the club to play for the team when he left Inter Milan this summer and was able to give him enough appearances.
However, after Baggio announced that he would not stay in Inter Milan to continue his effectiveness, many teams were eager to move. Although the melancholy king has reached the age of 33, Ji Ji didn’t get many opportunities to play. Now he still has a few percent of his strength in his peak period, so it is necessary to make a big question mark. However, Robert Baggio’s rich experience in competitions and his ability to determine the trend of the game in an instant still tempted many team coaches and managers.
Although Roberto Baggio’s requirements for his appearance made the real clubs such as Real Madrid and Florence give up the idea of introducing him, those clubs like Vicenza and Roma who want to go further in the national leagues or those clubs like Verona and Lecce who want to enhance their strength and thus avoid relegation and increase their chances of winning the league all want to take this opportunity to attract Baggio to achieve their goals!
Therefore, it is foreseeable that the transfer market will be doomed to play a battle for Baggio this summer!
Baggio, let’s stop here. Now let’s look at Florence, which has just finished the 27th round of Serie A.
Fiorentina’s opponent in the round match was their younger brother Vicenza in Italy, but Heinks didn’t take it lightly because Vicenza was a satellite team in Florence, because he knew that Guidolin, the coach of Vicenza, would never be waterproof on purpose.
Moreover, although Vicenza was poached by various powerful men waving checkbooks last summer, this sevenpiecedtogether team has taken shape after Xiao Zhuge devoted himself to training for more than half a year, which not only achieved four wins and two draws in the last six leagues, but also surprised many experts and fans by successfully reaching the semifinals in the European Cup Winners’ Cup last season.
Don’t look at Vicenza. The player configuration is not as gorgeous as it was last year. Even Serie A Seven Sisters can’t guarantee that it can win this main force against Vicenza.
Florence is no exception, especially in the past week, it has experienced two strong teams, Chelsea and Inter Milan, and after a week of double matches, the competitive and physical conditions of Florence players have fallen into a trough at this moment, so it is natural to imagine that Florence, which is not in the best state, has tried its best to play Vicenza.
In the end, after 90 minutes of the game, Florence and Vicenza played a onetoone draw. Shevchenko made up a shot in front of the goal in halftime injury time to help Viola get a point away!
Although only one point was scored in the match against Vicenza, the difference between Florence and the second Juventus was widened to nine points after the round matchat the same time, in another match, the Bianconeri lost to AC Milan led by Zaccheroni in the away game, which made them fail to seize the opportunity of Florence’s draw with Vicenza to narrow the gap and the Viola gap was widened by their opponents!
Seeing that the team has once again made waves to close the points difference, Moggi is increasingly dissatisfied with the current coach of the team, Ancelotti. Unlike history, this world Juventus has never tasted the taste of the league title since the end of Platini’s era. After nearly 14 years of precipitation, Juventus has gone from the top of the club to the bottom. Their desire for the Serie A championship has reached an unprecedented height!
Therefore, Juventus’ tolerance for Ancelotti’s repeated failures is naturally impossible to be as lenient as Zhuang Ge’s previous life. Zhuang Ge learned from the grapevine that Mo Lao Fox seems to have been secretly looking for a fat successor …

There is an undercurrent in Juventus. Let’s stop here for the time being and look at Florence.
After returning from Vicenza, the Fiorentina players ushered in their first match after qualifying for the Champions League on the evening of March 3. This time, Viola played against Spanish giants Barcelona in the quarterfinals.
Effenberg and vieri are naturally the most excited about being able to face Barcelona in the Champions Leaguedon’t say that just playing rivaldo, which they dislike the most, is enough to make them fight.
Who let this unattractive Brazilian win the World Player of the Year and the European Golden Globe Award last year with a La Liga champion and some goals full of personal heroism? In the two awards, they won the third place respectively, but surpassed rivaldo in honor. Many effenberg and vieri are naturally hostile to the Brazilian strikerthey want to prove to everyone that it is an extremely wrong choice to elect rivaldo as Mr. Double in this direct contest with Barcelona!
Therefore, in the first round of the contest between the two sides, effenberg and vieri both performed extremely hard in the game. The former showed a very high level in both offensive and defensive ends, not only assisting vieri to score goals on the offensive end, but also helping Carlos and Lei Dongduo and other teammates to successfully cut off Barcelona’s middle and frontcourt players and divide Figo and luis enrique, so that they had to fall into a situation of fighting alone with their own players; The latter scored two goals to help Florence get a 22 draw at Camp Nou, which made Viola have to retreat in this Catalan capital and also scored two important away goals!
Actually, if rivaldo hadn’t suddenly started the superstar mode in the last 20 minutes of the halfcourt, he would have turned two chances into goals with his super personal ability. I’m afraid Barcelona would have suffered a defeat at their own home.
Although Barcelona didn’t lose at home, the result of the first leg still made Barcelona feel very uncomfortablenot to mention winning Florence at home. Just being taken away by an opponent here was enough to make the Rossoneri feel crisis, while being scored by Viola for two away goals made the Catalan giants feel that the hope of advancing to the semifinals of the Champions League has become quite slim.
Even Barcelona, which is famous for its attack power, can’t guarantee that it can kill Florence in the second round at Frankie Stadium. After all, Viola’s attack power is not worse than Barcelona’s, and its defense level is even better than that of this Spanish giant. Therefore, unless Florence is in a low state or another superstar in Barcelona comes forward to take care of Florence’s entire defense line like rivaldo, the situation of Barcelona’s promotion at home is really not optimistic.
However, with the wonderful play of this game, rivaldo reversed the views of many fans and was able to come forward to save the team when the team was suppressed by the opponent, making the Brazilian’s identity as Mr. Double Material look a bit worthy of the name.
After returning from Spain, Florence welcomed their opponents in the 20th round of Serie A on the first April Fool’s Day of the new century, with two veterans, signori and pagliuca, leading the Bologna team.
Although Florence dominates the overall strength and still has the home court advantage, in the eyes of most media and fans, Viola is naturally much bigger than Bologna and takes three points. But it’s a pity that two veterans in the Bologna team became showstopper in this game!
Pagliuca, who is 34 years old, dreamed of reaching the peak on this night. The former Italian goalkeeper tried hard to protect the door in the game, which fully made the Fiorentina players realize what it means to be a husband. And signori also showed a former Serie A golden boot style. The shooting madman, with his left foot only 3 yards, played against Hyypia and penetrated toldo’s goal for three times, which made him punch the grass with his fist.
On the other hand, in Florence, although Heinks took into account the influence of a week’s double match on the players and made a substantial rotation in the starting lineup to ensure that the players were in the state of this game, it seems that the players consumed too much energy in the big battle in Barcelona, Zhonghe Zhou, and many of them seemed somewhat listless.
Among them, the most obvious performance is that the starting goalkeeper toldo, the Italian No.2 international, is very dedicated and has a very correct attitude towards the game, but he consumed too much energy in the contest with Barcelona’s top attackers three days ago. He was not particularly excited when facing an opponent of Bologna’s level.
Anyone who knows toldo should know that the goalkeeper belongs to that typical state. When the goalkeeper gets excited, it is simply that the god can block any shot; On the contrary, toldo is an excellent goalkeeper who won’t make lowlevel mistakes and can save the ball, but don’t expect him to make any wonderful saves to save the team.
Unfortunately, the match between Florence and Bologna just happened to be toldo’s lazy day! Or it can be said that toldo’s passion was exhausted as early as three days ago against Barcelona …
Finally, when the game ended on the spot, Florence lost to Bologna 13 at home, which broke the biggest upset in Serie A!
Although Florence lost, the lead of Viola did not shrink after the round because Juventus was defeated by Lazio, the third place at home in the next day’s game. The second team still maintained a gap of points.
However, Florence was not happy with this news, because the day after the match against Bologna, they received another news from the physiotherapy center that made them unhappyafter the game, Ronaldo was found to have a problem with the ligament and tendon of his right knee in a routine physical examination organized by thomas carter, and needed a thorough rest for three months, otherwise it would probably lead to a serious injury that would endanger his career!
This means that aliens will have to miss all the games in Florence for the rest of the season!
Chapter 75 Season Reimbursement ()
Although Hynkes and Zhuang Ge and other Florence executives were very surprised that Ronaldo was suddenly found to have a serious hidden danger in his right knee, they had to face the cruel reality that Florence was facing a shortage of strikers because aliens announced the season reimbursement at the crucial moment, but they did not have the team’s temporary performance and forced Ronaldo to be in poor condition and injured. Instead, they learned from thomas carter that aliens needed a good rest for several months and could recover without moving a knife. After the rematch, they both agreed with a sigh of relief to let Ronaldo miss all the games after the season.
After all, in the eyes of Heinx and Zhuang Ge, Ronaldo’s career is much more important than Florence’s gains and losses in one or two games!
It’s not hard to understand that Heinks made this decision. You know, the German coach was also an outstanding super shooter when he was a player, but he went uphill early because of injury just after he was 30 years old. Therefore, the Germans certainly don’t want Ronaldo, a talented younger generation, to follow in his footsteps, and Zhuang Ge’s reason is simpler. He loved aliens very much in his previous life. He certainly doesn’t want to see Ronaldo repeat the same mistakes under his nose.
