Although Florence scored a goal early on the scene and their own attack was delayed, AC Milan players did not feel much panic because of it, but waited calmly for the referee to announce the whistle again.
It is not surprising that this situation will happen. After all, apart from landing in Apennine Peninsula for the first time in the season, Kaka can be regarded as a recruit. All the players present in AC Milan now have quite rich competition experience, and baronio has played in the Rossoneri for two full seasons, not to mention Seedorf, Grandoni and Maldini, who have been famous in the top leagues for many years. In their view, it is nothing to lag behind a goal, and it is easy to recover the gap.
So Seedorf and baronio dispatched and directed the Rossoneri to actively change their offensive strategy after reball, instead of trying to reestablish contact with the besieged Ukrainian binary star, they skillfully helped Florence to guard against the two men and constantly threatened the Viola gate with longrange shots from Seedorf and Kaka outside the restricted area.
It is obvious that Seedorf and his team intend to take another route to take advantage of Florence’s shrinking defense line to prevent their two strikers from taking the opportunity to attack the periphery of the restricted area, where the defense is relatively weak, so as to break the iron bucket array of the other side.
You know, longrange shooting and setpieces are the only way to deal with the iron drum array
Of course, the periphery mentioned here is not the front area of the restricted area, but the distance from the goal is about 20 meters to 30 meters. After all, Florence players are not bad in defensive consciousness and will not expose such loopholes to their opponents in the game. If Seedorf insists on completing the attack in this area, they may be beaten back by Florence.
I have to say that AC Milan’s luck in this game is really very good. Facing Florence, the Rossoneri put on an iron barrel. This unreasonable longrange shot broke Buffon’s goal in the 26th minute and the 49th minute of the game, and AC Milan’s two achievements were the young midfielder Kaka who was transferred at a low price of $10,000 this summer!
Although this is Kaka’s first season in Serie A, this handsome young man has shown his potential to become a superstar and successfully pushed Rui Costa to the bench through his excellent performance in recent months. The most terrible thing is that Kaka not only has the potential to become a superstar, but his iconic dribbling attack has also taken shape at this time!
Unlike most players, Kaka’s breakthrough is not as ghostly and varied as Ronaldo’s, but his advantage is that he can keep his head cool during the highspeed attack. Moreover, Kaka’s running speed with the ball and the difference between running speed are very small, and the extremely European style and firstclass physical fitness make his breakthrough method very unique. Almost all of them are striding straight to the goal, and the speed and reaction are slightly poor. Players can’t stop him in oneonone situations.
Kaka’s great power when sprinting with the ball was unexpected by Florence players, and it was precisely because of this that Kaka had to break through Florence’s heavy defense in midfield, beating Makelele and Gattuso, who were caught off guard. AC Milan scored two goals.
Although Kaka AC Milan brought two valuable goals, it was only for the Rossoneri to barely equalize the score, because Florence once again broke the goal of AC Milan through defensive counterattack, but this time the goalscorer became vieri Vincent and the side who sent the assists.
Kaka woke Florence twice in the game and made them realize that it is far from the time to celebrate the victory. If we relax our vigilance and neglect now, it will definitely not be a good result to wait for them.
So in the following days, Florence players consciously took care of Kaka in defense, especially Ballack, Makelele and Gattuso, who had rich experience in the game and quickly decided on a highly targeted defense strategy.
Gattuso will go over and keep a close eye on Kaka as soon as he receives the ball, and try his best to interfere with his dribbling route and drive him to Makelele’s area, so as to complete the encirclement of Kaka. Ballack and Pirlo are looking for gaps to prevent Kaka from sending a straight ball during the attack.
Kaka, who has just arrived in Serie A, has obviously never experienced this kind of intense defensive feast. After several breakthroughs in succession, Gattuso and Makelele have made dumplings, and the ball will be broken halfway by Ballack and Pirlo, and he will also be hit by a wave of quick counterattacks. After repeated several times, Kaka will not dare to break the ball easily.
Thanks to Kaka’s immaturity, Makelele can still stop him in this way. If Florence meets Kaka at the peak, then they will make more loopholes in the defense line if they do so again.
Singlehandedly defeating the opponent’s tactics, arranging one’s own side for more advantages, and thus changing the direction of the game, this is the value of a superstar.
Although Fiorentina’s defense against Sheva and Rebrov will be relaxed after blocking Kaka, the strongest firepower point of AC Milan midfield, Seedorf and baronio dare not send the straight plug easily after the previous failure, so Fiorentina’s defense line has not been tested much during this period, and the game is still played according to the tactics set by Heynckes
In the 60th minute, Fiorentina counterattacked vieri and pressed Maldini to make the ball transition offside. Dinatale broke into the penalty area from the latter and formed a singlehanded home team to score a goal to seal the victory!
In this way, with three sharp and quick counterattacks, Florence finally beat AC Milan 32 at Frankie Stadium and won a precious victory in a very difficult situation!
In the first 12 rounds of Serie A, Florence scored 11 wins, 1 loss and 33 points. The proud record continued to lead the standings, while AC Milan had to face the unfavorable situation of falling behind the leaders by six points.
Chapter 1219 Busy December ()
The result of this strong dialogue can be said to have surprised several experts and media glasses. They didn’t expect Florence to be so tired that it could erupt such a powerful fighting force that even AC Milan was defeated by them!
You know, before the round of the league, AC Milan had won, drawn and unbeaten in the first eleven rounds, and was in the second place in the standings by three points. Therefore, if Ancelotti can lead the Rossoneri to beat Florence, then AC Milan will be neck and neck with Viola in the standings!
What’s more, AC Milan still have a big chance to win this game. After all, Florence played a Toyota Cup final with Boca Juniors three days ago, and their physical fitness and state will definitely not be very good. Plus, they didn’t return to Italy more than a day ago. How can they look at it when they were not fully prepared? They have been in good shape for a whole week, and the Rossoneri have not been surprised by their opponents!
The fans of AC Milan imagine that the team will definitely cut Florence to the ground by three points in the round robin, and then they need to wait for Florence to make mistakes in the league because of the distraction of the European War, so that AC Milan can win the league title.
However, in such a dominant situation, AC Milan lost to Florence in this contest, and the whole game was led by the opponent’s nose and did not grasp the slightest initiative. Although Kaka’s performance at the game made AC Milan fans and management very satisfied, the game was lost and pulled by Florence by a full six points. This result was really unacceptable to AC Milan.
Since the team lost the game and it was still such a key battle, it was natural for the club to find someone to take the blame, so after the game, the attitude of AC Milan to Ancelotti changed. Berlusconi and Galliani and other club executives talked with Ancelotti successively, hoping that he could give a reasonable explanation.
After all, Benitez has invested a lot in these years, but he can’t get a heavyweight trophy back. Now, seeing that his archrival Florence can beat himself to build AC Milan with a lot of money under the condition of incomplete combat power, he feels that the investment and return are disproportionate, and he will naturally have an opinion on Ancelotti.
At the same time, Berlusconi, who has always been stubborn, now regrets that he left Capello with a big mouth, because he found that AC Milan has never been on the podium of Serie A champion since Capello left, and has been completely isolated from the title of Serie A overlord, which they have held for nearly ten years.
Maybe when the season is over, I should lower myself and invite Capello back? Sitting in the office, the old Berlusconi first came up with the idea that a good horse should return to the grass.
Zhuang Ge is very clear about the reason why AC Milan will play badly in this game. Ancelotti’s carelessness before the game and his onthespot command, which never improved, are the main reasons why AC Milan lost. However, AC Milan players lack enough confidence in winning, or to put it mildly, they lack the temperament of a champion team, which is also one of the reasons why the Rossoneri play badly in a good situation.
Due to the strong rise of Florence in this world, the achievements of AC Milan and Juventus are far worse than those of previous generations, which leads to the extreme hunger for championship honor and the lack of necessary experience in winning the championship. Therefore, at such times, many of these teams will play an abnormal role due to inexperience and psychological pressure, thus giving Florence a chance.
Florence, on the other hand, after the experience of the season, even young players like Vincent and Chivu have sufficient confidence in their own abilities, so that they are more daring to move in the game and can be more calm in looking for effective countermeasures when facing doubleteam defense. Recruits like Kaka are often afraid to give up their best tricks instead of using this weapon to attract the attention of opposing defenders, and these are the experience gaps between Florence and other teams.
Of course, although Zhuang Ge knows very well that AC Milan is weak at present, he will not be stupid enough to tell Berlusconi these things. After all, AC Milan and Florence are competitors. What if Zhuang Ge tells Benitez these words?
Now, after beating AC Milan, Florence ushered in the final round of the Champions League Group B against Real Sociedad in the following week.
Although the players worked very hard in the game, they once suppressed the Royal Society with the support of nearly 30,000 Florence fans at Frankie Stadium. However, in the second half of the game, the negative effects brought by the oneweek double match and longdistance running finally broke out. The players in Florence were breathless and stopped, and they were still alive and kicking. The Royal Society players watched them bombard in front of their own goals and took a victory from Frankie Stadium with a score of two.
But in another group match at the same time, Ajax failed to settle the team contradiction, and finally lost three goals in valery lobanovski Stadium to be more United. Dynamo Kiev’s group match was six games, two wins, one draw and three losses, and only seven points were accumulated. Unfortunately, Ajax was blocked from the 16th National Congress!
In the 34season European Cup Group B, the sixround group stage ended with a total score of ten points and a record of three wins, one draw and two losses. Florence and Real Society joined hands to advance to the top 16.
However, the royal society was quite depressed because they lost 13 in the first round, so Viola had to rely on the slight advantage of the two teams’ record of playing against each other to push the latter to the top of the group.
Of course, Royal Society will definitely not be the most depressed one in this group. This title should belong to the Ajax Youth Army, which was favored by many people at the beginning of the season because of serious team contradictions. However, Dynamo Kiev squeezed into the fourth place in the group at the last minute and didn’t even win a consolation prize in the UEFA Cup.

It’s really surprising that Ajax didn’t even get a place in the top 16 of the Champions League last season because he was defeated by his opponent for 100 minutes.
