The Fiorentina players and the fans in the stands were stunned when Davo Suker scored, no one could have imagined that the Croatian striker would be so bold and dare to choose such an extreme way of shooting in the semi-finals of the Champions League.
Although there are many people in the Fiorentina team who have this kind of footwork and technique that directly hits the goalkeeper's goalkeeper, and this way of shooting has a certain suddenness, it is difficult for the opposing goalkeeper to make a correct judgment when caught off guard and concede the goal, but if they want to make this move in such an important game, it is estimated that no one will be willing to take this risk.
It is for this reason that when Suker scored, the Fiorentina fans in the stands of the Frankie Stadium unexpectedly did not boo the Croatian at the first time, but watched in silence from their seats as Suker celebrated his goal on the sidelines.
Meanwhile, Effenberg and Ronaldo were surrounding Friske, signaling that Sanches had brought down the alien with a foul before Real Madrid counter-attacked, and that the goal should be disallowed.
However, the Swedish referee obviously did not listen to the explanation of the Fiorentina side, and while asking the players of both sides to immediately return to their respective halves to prepare to kick off again in the center circle, he signaled the Fiorentina players not to say anything to him, otherwise he should not be blamed for the warning......
Frisk's behavior obviously angered Effenberg, and although the German Tiger's perverse personality has been reined in recent years, he is still a master who eats soft rather than hard, and is about to roll up his sleeves and fix this unenlightened referee.
Seeing this, Frisk's face also froze, and he put his right hand into his jacket pocket......
"Stefan! What are you TM saying there?! Give Lao Tzu a good game, and don't fix these useless things! At this moment, Capello's roar came from the sidelines, which instantly brought the somewhat enthusiastic Effenberg back to his senses. The German quickly smiled apologetically at the somewhat stiff Frieske, signaled to Capello that he was back to normal, and then pulled Ronaldo away and prepared to kick off again.
Capello was relieved to see Effenberg honestly following his commands. Although his facial expression has not changed much, judging from Capello just kicking the mineral water bottle next to him, it is obvious that the manager's heart is also not calm.
However, Capello, who is older and more experienced, is clearly more likely to regain his composure on such occasions than his emotionally charged players, as he knows how important this game is for Fiorentina. Therefore, Capello can accept this conceded goal, but he must not allow Fiorentina to have one less player on the field!
That's why Capello stopped Effenberg's uncool behavior so harshly, allowing Fiorentina to avoid the fate of their captain being shown a yellow or even red card by Frisker before the end of the first half.
Since Davo Suker's goal occurred in first-half stoppage time, there was not much time left, and the Real Madrid players wasted some time celebrating the goal, so Fiorentina just passed two or three balls after kicking off in the center circle, and Friske blew the whistle at the end of the first half!
Although the score was 2-1, with the home team in front and the away team behind, the Real Madrid players did happily walk to the players' tunnel, while Fiorentina, who led the score, had a gloomy face...... Self-explanatory.
During the break, neither manager was idle, instilling in his players the tactical arrangements for the second half in their respective dressing rooms.
On the Real Madrid side, Heynckes praised the players' performance in the dressing room for the last ten minutes, and at the same time made some adjustments to the team's tactics in the second half, asking the players to continue to maintain this level of attacking pressure on Fiorentina, so that the opponent has some concerns in the game and does not dare to invest too many troops in the attack.
Looking at Fiorentina, although the players were very unconvinced by the goal conceded in the last moments, and thought that Sanches's tackle on Ronaldo was enough to eat the card, all these complaints disappeared as soon as Capello walked into the dressing room.
“…… It seems that you are all very unconvinced by the current score, right? Capello walked into the dressing room and didn't immediately explain the team's tactics in the second half, but chatted with the players.
"Of course, Chief!" As Fiorentina's captain on the field, Effenberg was the first to reply, "If not"
"Hehe, what you said is indeed very reasonable and correct." Speaking of this, Capello's face turned grim and he said sharply, "But! Don't forget! This is the real football! ”
When the Fiorentina players heard Capello say this, they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and they thought to themselves, why did they still start a fire this time. However, out of trust in Capello's coaching ability and the friendship they have had over the past year, the players decided to listen carefully to what their head coach had to say.
Of course, the most important thing is that the words of his own coach seem to be really attractive.
"Football is not the place to be reasonable! This is the battlefield! Therefore, it doesn't matter how the process is, only the result is important! Before the opponent takes the initiative to admit defeat and surrender, even if we are already ahead by a large score, we must not relax our vigilance! Remember, if we are eliminated after this game, no one will care how far Fiorentina have come in the Champions League, because the team that shines brightest on the football pitch will always be the team that wins the title! ”
After saying such a long sentence, Capello, who was already old, didn't feel a little out of breath, but he still persevered, because he knew that now was the critical moment to mobilize morale: "Boys! Do you want to be the first team in 20 years to win the Champions Cup three times in a row? ”
"Yes!"
"Do you want to win the treble again and write your name forever in the Champions Cup, or even in the annals of world football?"
"Yes!"
"What should we do now to achieve these two goals?"
"Win this game, kick those Spaniards out of the Champions Cup and let them go fishing!" The Fiorentina players shouted in unison, and the shouts were even heard in the dressing room, but fortunately this is Fiorentina territory, so the stadium staff was only a little surprised and did not make any unnecessary moves.
"Good! So now I'm going to explain what we need to adjust in the second half...... "Capello saw that the players had actually been encouraged by himself, so he ended his speech and began to tell the players about the tactical adjustments in the second half.
