After the two Shijie Cup qualifiers, the players who had participated in the national team tournament were disbanded after the match and returned to their teams to continue to devote themselves to the long club competition.

Fiorentina naturally resumed their daily training after the return of these internationals in the team, after all, the next few weeks are basically a rhythm of two games a week, and if the players' physical fitness is not well distributed, something will happen sooner or later.

On October 13, four days after the international break, Serie A celebrates the fifth round of matches with Fiorentina hosting the Blue Eagles.

Although the head coach of the team is still the Czech coach Zeman, Lazio's performance has begun to decline sharply this season, losing to mid-table Bologna in the first round of the league, and then failing to win a game in four league games, which is completely inconsistent with the status of the seven sisters of Serie A.

Lazio's poor performance this season can't be blamed on Zeman's lack of strength, after all, the Czech coach belongs to the kind of player who can give him a suitable tactical system, and once the player and his tactical thinking do not match, then the team's results will be unsatisfactory.

And Lazio, who sold stars such as Boksic and Di Matteo this summer, belongs to the latter. Kragnotti's original intention may have been Haode, and he wanted to bring in some more competitive players to take a team that had been on the verge of glory for several years to the next level. However, the newly introduced Proti overlaps with the team's leading scorer Signori, and at the same time, there is a lack of Boksic's running containment and the midfield organization of Di Matteo and Winter.

It's not that Zeman hasn't tried to let Protti change to the position before Boksic, but the 29-year-old Protti is a point-grabbing shooter whose jishu style has been completely finalized, and it is really difficult for him to change his style; Another point is that Proti is only 1.70 meters tall, and it is okay to sneak up in ambush in front of the goal, but he can't play the kind of diversion role that Boksic has at all.

As a result, Lazio's performance can slip.

In the face of such an out-of-form Lazio, although the physical fitness of Fiorentina was not at its best due to the fact that many main players in the Fiorentina team participated in last week's Shijie Cup qualifiers, Capello, who has done a lot of research on Lazio's current situation, still has a very targeted starting lineup.

The goalkeeper is still Toldo, Ferrara and Nesta partner in the middle, after all, after the transfer of the tall Boksic, Lazio's offensive line is dominated by small and fast, if you rashly replace Stam or Virjoward, with the slow turning speed of the two, it is likely to be directly broken by the opponent.

On the left and right are Robert Carlos and Billindelly, neither of whom have international duty, so they have plenty of fitness to make the most of Capello's tactical intentions.

The former will be so leisurely, not because the head coach of the Brazilian team, Zagallo, is too visionary to look down on Carlos, but because the Brazilian national team, as the winner of the Shijie Cup in the United States, does not need to participate in the long Shijie Cup qualifiers and can be directly qualified, so Carlos did not get Zagallo's call this time; The latter did not get a call-up from the national team, more because there were two fierce men in the same position, Panucci and Torricelli.

In midfield, both Di Biagio and Davies were given a break in the Shijie Cup qualifiers for the national team, with Redondo and Effenberg, who had been excluded from the national team by their respective national team managers, getting a starting position after almost half a month of rest.

At the same time, in order to make up for the Argentine's lack of tackles, Capello sent young player Tomasi to take charge of Davies and Di Biagio's previous work; The starting midfielder was Rui Costa, and for the young and strong Portuguese midfielder, it was not a problem to play a double game once in a while, as long as the physiotherapy centre did not have a red light in the medical examination.

As for the forward line, Batistuta, who has just flown halfway across the world to play a Shijie Cup qualifier for the Argentine national team, is naturally unlikely to be placed in the starting line, and so is Inzaghi, who has played two full qualifiers, so that Ronaldo and Vieri, who do not have the task of playing for the national team, get the chance to start.

In the face of Fiorentina's mixed lineup of the main force and substitutes, although the Lazio lineup playing away from home is quite neat, and the main team except for Nedved has not been dragged down by the national team competition, but it is still inferior in the competition with the purple lily.

In particular, the attacking line that the Blue Eagles fans have been proud of disappointed these fans in this game, Signoli and Proti have never found a tacit understanding, Casiraci has suffered a loss in the European Championship, and as the main striker of the Blue Eagles, he has not yet opened in the new season.

On the other hand, Fiorentina, who is playing at home, is getting more and more courageous, making Lazio scramble with waves of sharp counterattacks.

First, Vieri beat Chamot in the 30th minute, receiving Carlos' cross from the left and flicking his head to score for Fiorentina; Then Ronaldo once again staged a good show of long-distance running, the alien who received the ball near the center circle of the stadium successively passed Baronho, Fosse and Glendoni to form a single goal, Zuihou faced the attacking Maciegiani, Ronaldo easily got rid of the opponent and sent the ball into the empty goal, 2-0!

Lazio, who were two goals behind, launched a fierce attack in the second half, but the fragile defensive system once again showed the Blue Eagles that they could not win by attacking alone.

In the 52nd minute, Rui Costa kicked over the top in midfield, and Vieri met the ball after successfully countering the offside position and volleyed the ball into the goal, making it 3-0.

In this way, Fiorentina, which has home advantage, won Lazio without panic and ushered in five consecutive league wins.

After the win over Lazio, Fiorentina face a second Champions League group stage in the following week, this time against Gothenburg from the Swedish league.

Although the away players worked hard in the game, repeatedly clearing the ball before the ball was about to cross the goal line, they did not have home advantage against a much stronger Fiorentina side, and such a move only delayed their death a little.

In the end, thanks to a goalmouth leak by Inzaghi in the 75th minute, Fiorentina comfortably managed their second opponent in the group stage at home and picked up three valuable points.
