Chapter 40 More and more wonderful Italy

The second leg of the 1/8 final of the European Champions Cup rekindled the war. Previously, they drew with the Celtics at home. This time, they were away from Scotland. After overtime, they defeated the Celtics 1-0 and advanced to the quarterfinals with a total score of 1:0.

In this game, AC Milan's biggest winner is Kaka, who scored a goal through a long-distance attack in stoppage time. After this game, Kaka also ranked first in the UEFA Champions League scorer list with six goals.

AC Milan's game against the Celtics did not break the deadlock until overtime, and Ancelotti's "single striker" tactics were questioned again after the game.

In this game, Ancelotti played four midfielders, among which Gattuso, Ambrosini and Pirlo played at the same time. Compared with the normal formation, Ambrosini is an extra element. In response, Ancelotti explained at a post-match press conference: "We are not small Be cautious. With the help of Ambrosini, our midfielder showed a clear advantage. Ambrosini's air advantage is excellent, and the full-back is very big today. In the last 5 or 6 minutes of the 90-minute game, we showed some ups and downs, because we took a little risky ahead and gave it on the back line. The other party has too many opportunities. In addition, I have always been very confident that as long as we are patient, we will score goals.

Indeed, AC Milan did have an advantage in the control of the midfield. In the 120-minute game, the shooting opportunities between the two sides were 305.

However, among the 30 shots, AC Milan's two strikers Inzaghi and Girardino have only accounted for 3 of them. According to statistics, Kaka, who has completed 9 shots, is the main attack point of AC Milan.

AC Milan's more shots are threatened by long-range shots, positioning balls and positioning points. Obviously, although as Ancelotti said, the center attracted the opponent's defense, the threat of the striker is weakened and the attacking area is far away from the opponent's goal.

In this game, Inzaghi, who recovered from injury, played very hard on the field. In fact, in the fight between the coaches of the two sides, Strachan's tactics were successful. Hesselink, Yarosik and others strengthened the frontcourt rush, forcing AC Milan to use long pass tactics frequently, and Inzaghi obviously did not adapt to such a battle. AC Milan's long pass success rate from the first half to the second half was very low, and this situation did not improve until Gilardino came on the field.

Milan Sport also said after the game: "Only Kaka supports behind him, and Inzaghi seems too isolated."

This is indeed the case. Ancelotti has only made two substitutions in the game. The striker has replaced the striker, the midfielder has replaced the midfielder, and the single striker has never changed.

Ancelotti did not say his subtext at the press conference: due to the 0: 0 in the first round, AC Milan is dangerous as long as the Celtics enter this round. In order to avoid this passive situation, Ancelotti had to defend first within 90 minutes, but in overtime, AC Milan's After reaching a critical point, Ancelotti could only gamble, so AC Milan played more actively.

This is obviously Ancelotti's lack of confidence in his team's attack. On the one hand, he is conservative, and on the other hand, this is also a choice under great pressure. If a mistake is out, I'm afraid there is only one result waiting for him.

However, it is difficult to say that the single striker's play is so good. Two seasons ago, AC Milan had easily defeated the Celtics 3:1 at home.

Before Christmas, the single striker once helped AC Milan reverse the decline, defeating Catalonia at home and Udinese away.

But the current situation is different from that at that time. At that time, AC Milan was in a bad situation and the opponent was relatively open to them. At the same time, the team's overall physical condition was poor and needed to increase the number of defensive manpower in the midfield.

But after the winter physical reserve, the above problems are gone. In the case of 7 wins and 2 draws in the last 9 rounds, which are second only to the opening of Inter Milan and Fiorentina, the opponent has given AC Milan less space in defense, and the single striker is unlikely to get as many opportunities as in the past, just like today's comparison. In the game, Kaka flashed and made AC Milan successfully advance, but this is not an absolute opportunity. What if Borusz saved the single knife?

Will Ancelotti take the formation of a single striker to play a penalty shootout with the Celtics?

AC Milan has advanced, but the next opponent must be stronger than the Celtics. If the thinking remains unchanged, it is difficult to say how far Ancelotti can go with this team.

Ancelotti seemed very confident about AC Milan's next journey in the Champions League: "AC Milan can challenge any other team in the top seven. In the past five years, we have reached the quarter-finals, and so has this season."

Reporters also asked that Ancelotti will certainly not admit that he is conservative about the single striker tactics used in this game, but everyone knows that Berlusconi prefers double striker tactics. Previously, Ancelotti only arranged a striker in the lineup and conflicted with him.

"Berlusconi congratulated us after the game. He often talked to the team about his game philosophy, beautiful games and the style of pursuing goals. I think that's what we do today."

Next, when it comes to Kaka, Ancelotti said more: "Before, people were talking about Kaka in a crisis and in a bad state, but now he has proved that the criticism is wrong. It is not an insult to say that we have Kaka dependence. It will give the team more choices and more space, so this is a favorable position for him.

For the result of the 1/8 final, Ancelotti said that it was full of surprises: "There are many surprises in this season's Champions Cup. Many strong teams such as Inter Milan, Real Madrid, Arsenal and defending champion Barcelona are out. This season is full of surprises. Liverpool is the strongest team, and so is Valencia, but It's Manchester United and Chelsea who are more powerful. I don't want to choose an opponent. I just want to say that any team that draws us will worry about themselves.

AC Milan's next Champions League opponent will worry about himself. People don't know that Ancelotti needs to worry about his handsome position, which is true.

Even if AC Milan can finally win the Champions League this season, if the league results are not ideal, they will become the first defending champions who will not be able to compete in the Champions League next season.

The situation like Liverpool before will probably not happen again. What AC Milan needs to do now is to make a breakthrough in the league while continuing the Champions League journey.

Who will be their opponent in the next round of the league?

Inter Milan!

Before Milan's two heroes appeared, Fiorentina took the lead in ending their game, and the winning streak was finally ended. Purple Lily was finally tied 1:1 by Palermo on the road.

Florence also played very actively in this game. In the first six minutes, Cavinaghi scored a header, but was awarded offside first.

It was not until the 34th minute of the game that Fiorentina took the lead. Mutu, who recovered from injury, received a pass from Degan in front of the penalty area and made a forced breakthrough. After shaking two defenders, he shot at the edge of the penalty area.

The score lasted until one minute before the end of the game, but it was this minute that the result of the game was changed. Uruguayan striker Cavani, who played in Serie A for the first time, made a volley with his right foot on the edge of the penalty area and shot into the top corner of the post.

In the end, Florence had no choice but to accept the result.

"Our performance today is not good, and Palermo is very tenacious. Their performance is stronger than us on the three lines. This is a fact. The winning streak is ended, which is frustrating, but this is the football match. In less than the last second, no one knows what will happen. We are slacking for ourselves. At the cost, the result of the game is fair. Palermo's performance today is worthy of this draw!"

It's not big news that Fiorentina was forced to draw. Degan stopped his momentum of consecutive goals, which is also reasonable. Now people are most concerned about Milan's 266th derby.

In the Champions Cup in the middle of the week, Inter were eliminated by Valencia, and AC Milan advanced with overtime. They not only played 30 minutes more, but also had a day less rest than Inter.

Since the championship of Inter has been decided, the biggest suspense in this game is whether AC Milan can end its opponent's 28 rounds unbeaten league. In the previous confrontation, AC Milan had 104 wins, 72 draws and 89 losses, occupying an advantage, but the feng shui took turns, and the historical data could not represent anything. Everyone knows that the current Italian football world is the world of Inter Milan.

This game is also a milestone for Milan's old captain Maldini. This is his 600th Serie A and 52nd Milan derby, and Ronaldo faces his old club Inter Milan for the first time.

After playing the game with Palermo, Digan also drove to Milan and appeared in the stands.

In this game, Inter Milan's Vieira and Cambiasso were absent due to injury, Dakota hit the back, Stankovic and Sanetti were separated from each other, and Figo was the front midfielder. Adriano was not on the list, and Crespo became Ibrahimovic's partner.

There was another episode before the start of the game, where Inter fans got 30,000 plastic whistles, which were said to be specially prepared for Ronaldo.

Shortly after the opening, Bonella's front line of the penalty area was not far away, and Crespo's low shot with his right foot was confiscated by Dida. Then, Stankovic passed the ball and Crespo turned around and shot high on the edge of the penalty area. Then, Figo's corner kick went to the back point, and Ibrasimovic headed the ball back to the center of the penalty area, but Pirlo destroyed the ball. Subsequently, Stankovic made a low shot from the near post with his left right foot.

From the beginning of the game, this is not a strong dialogue at all. The initiative is firmly held in the hands of Inter Milan, and AC Milan can only be tired of dealing with it.

Ronaldo, the most watched in this game, didn't get a chance to perform until the 16th minute. Kaka passed directly to the right side of the penalty area. Ronaldo's shot was blocked by Materazzi, and there were suddenly whistles in the stands.

There is as much love as there is hate. Ronaldo defected from Madrid, which had already hurt the hearts of the fans. Now he has returned to Milan, but joined the sworn enemy of the same city, and added a handful of salt to this wound.

Although the game is fierce, the wonderful attack is not good. Inter Milan has the advantage, and AC Milan can only defend passively most of the time.

But when the first half was near the end, the situation on the court suddenly changed. Stankovic's pass and was intercepted by Odo first. He launched a long pass and handed it to the foot of Kaka. After Kaka got the ball, he passed the ball on the left side. Gatuso immediately moved to the right side. Ronaldo took the ball and cut it inside, and Maxwell forced to grab it. Not tight, giving Ronaldo enough space to shoot. As a result, he made a low shot, and the football rushed into the far corner with the turf. AC Milan led 1:0!

The whistle of Inter fans did not stop Ronaldo from sealing his throat with a sword.

After the goal, Ronaldo completely ignored the angry eyes of Inter Milan fans, and Moratti's gloomy face celebrated on the court.

After the break, Dakota was replaced by Samuel, Cordoba switched to right-back, and Burdiso pushed to the back position. The backward Inter Milan also began to launch a crazy counterattack. In the 50th minute, Sanetti passed the ball and Ibrasimovic broke into the penalty area and was blocked by Dida. Three minutes later, AC Milan also got a chance, but unfortunately Gattuso wasted an excellent opportunity to expand the score. He shot low with his right foot in front of the goal and came out of the far post.

After that, Mancini replaced Crespo with Cruz, and in less than a minute of his appearance, Cruz equalized the score!

Ibrasimovic's right sideline suddenly accelerated to get rid of Maldini and rushed to sweep the goal near the bottom line. Dida fell to the ground and threw the ball out. Cruz shot the ball with his right foot before Gattuso and Odo were relieved, 1:1.

Inter Milan equalized the score. In the next game, the Vietnam War became more and more brave, and the offensive was more and more fierce. When the game went on, Cruz knocked down Jankulovski with his body and broke into the right side of the penalty area. Facing Bonela's blocking bottom line, Ibrasimovic pushed his right foot at the front point. With a score in the far corner, Inter Milan completed the overtaking by 2:1!

This is also Ibrasimovic's 24th goal in the individual league this season, and the gap with Degan has also been widened to three.

Since then, despite Ancelotti's frequent deployment of troops, he had no choice but to return to the sky. In the end, AC Milan lost this crucial derby by 1:2, and Inter Milan had an unbeaten record in the league this season.

Ancelotti, who lost the derby, seems to be coming to the end in the position of Milan's coach.

The five-and-a-half cycle should come to an end. Although Galliani emphasized stability in an interview with reporters after the game, there is no feast that never ends, as Costakuta said last season: "If a coach coaches a team for a long time, players will lose motivation and freshness."

Although it doesn't sound good, it's a big truth, and Ancelotti is facing such a problem now.

After the Milan derby, Ancelotti's talk about his future stay began to become uncertain: "As far as I am concerned, I certainly want to stay in AC Milan, but things on the football field will never be difficult to say."

In fact, according to an authoritative media, Ancelotti has made a decision to leave AC Milan next season and go to Spain to find new challenges. In this regard, he has communicated with Galliani.

Ancelotti took over AC Milan's coach seal from Trim in the second half of 2001 and brought AC Milan two Champions Cup titles, one league champion and one Italian Cup champion in five and a half years. In addition, there is also one European Super Cup and one Italian Super Cup.

This season, there is a nominal Champions League to compete for, but considering the current situation of the team and Ronaldo's not being able to play the Champions Cup, how many people will believe that AC Milan will replicate Liverpool's miracle in 2004?

It is an indisputable fact that the cycle of Ancelotti is going downhill.

Costakuta's words are right. The team needs to be stable, but AC Milan is too stable. Ancelotti's routines and moves have been devouted by all their opponents. What the team needs now is new changes.

Authoritative media said that Galliani was not surprised by Ancelotti's notice. In fact, Galliani has chosen a new head coach for AC Milan, not the legendary Ricard, but Lippi, who led the Italian national team to win the world championship last summer.

Lippi is famous for his changeable tactics, and in the Italian national team, Lippi's main focus is Ancelotti's three midfielders and a front-waist formation, and occasionally uses a single striker, which is also what AC Milan's players can adapt to. In terms of tactics, the team does not have to push back and over again.

In addition, Lippi and Capello are recognized by Italian journalists as the only two Italian coaches who could lead the team to win the championship. Of course, now there are Spaletti, Mancini and Prandelli in the new generation.

As for the whereof of Ancelotti, media analysis is very likely to be La Liga, because Ancelotti has been learning Spanish for some time. In addition to Real Madrid and Barcelona, Valencia is also one of the candidates, because there is a conflict between Valencia's head coach Flores and sports manager Caponi, and Caponi once Jan He wants to fire Flores's squid.

AC Milan lost 1:2 to Inter Milan, but the only goal of the "guest team" was scored by Ronaldo, which made Moratti, who celebrated the victory in the stands, inevitably have a complicated feeling. Although the successive goals of Cruz and Ibrasimovic diluted the significance of Ronaldo's goals, in Meacha Ronaldo is still a focus this evening.

Before the game, Inter Milan's fan organization prepared 30,000 plastic whistles for the spectators with the package. The purpose of this whistle is that once Ronaldo touches the ball, 30,000 fans with whistles whistles whistles together, not to mention the people who boo and whistle directly with their mouths. All the fans in the audience can imagine He knew Ronaldo's situation, but in such an atmosphere, Ronaldo could still play normally.

Compared with other AC Milan players, Ronaldo, who did not participate in the European Champions League in the middle of the week, showed a better physical condition. In the thirteenth minute, he forcibly broke through and made a free kick under the three-person bag at the front of the penalty area, and then stepped on the bicycle and the shot was blocked by Materazzi. And after that, Cordoba's fouls caused a loud whistle in the whole audience. Of course, the louder the whistle, only showed that Ronaldo was more active he was.

Although Ancelotti said that "Ronaldo is not suitable for a single striker", in the post-match rating, he was the only AC Milan player who was rated as excellent and scored 7 points. Considering that this was a performance under the whistle of 30,000 people, it was even more difficult.

It seems that Ancelotti was right before the game. He said, "I know that Inter Milan fans will express their feelings, but this does not affect Ronaldo. He is too experienced."

Not only will not affect it, but it is an incentive. Finally, Ronaldo responded to the whistle. In the first 40 minutes, Ronaldo received Gattuso's pass and got rid of his opponent's entanglement horizontally in front of the penalty area. After dodging an empty shot, his left foot was a strong shot. Perhaps Cesar was not prepared for the ball. Perhaps Ronaldo's choice of angle was too tricky, and the ball flew straight into the lower left corner of the goal. At this moment, the whistle disappeared in an instant.

"My goal was very beautiful. I wanted to try a long shot at that time. Fortunately, I played well." Ronaldo said about the goal after the game.

Cesar said with regret: "I am friends with Ronaldo, but I'm sorry to let Ronaldo score a goal. He moved very well. I didn't see him shoot, so I didn't succeed in jumping out. I'm a little annoyed about this.

Ancelotti scored Ronaldo's two "decision performance" after the game. In addition to this goal, there was also the ball he gave to Gattuso in the second half. At that time, he counterattacked Kaka cutting the ball from the left sideline and passed it across to Ronaldo in front of the penalty area. Ronaldo did not stop the ball, but took the opportunity to move the ball forward. , Gattuso's push shot from the back inserted slightly out of the far post.

"I can't say that Ronaldo has recovered 50%, 60% or 70%, but I know Ronaldo is awake." How appropriate Ancelotti's evaluation seems at this time.

Under the deterrence of 30,000 whistles, Ronaldo broke through Inter Milan's goal for the first time after returning to Serie A. Judging from the focus of Moratti and Ronaldo hyped by the media before the game, the results were also very happy. Ronaldo scored, but Moratti won the game and became the final winner.

Of course, Ronaldo is still not the Ronaldo at his peak. As for his question, Ancelotti said: "He is very decisive. It would be better if it is strengthened in continuity. Although he is not often found on the court, once he appears, there must be an amazing performance. If you can often see it, the game will be completely different.

Of course, Ronaldo can still make progress, his motivation is still there, and his hard training plan has not stopped. He started two substitutes in four games, four goals and two assists. After returning to Serie A, Ronaldo handed over satisfactory answers.

In this game, AC's No. 99 became the center of the storm as soon as it set foot on the field. Every time you touch the ball, you will get overwhelming boos, and the aliens will naturally feel uncomfortable. What embarrassed him more was a few long banners made by the Inter fans in the stands: "Bastard, go to Milan", "Shit go to the cesspool you should go", and the other banner is simpler and more elegant: "Ronaldo is like Vieri", which reminds people of the insulting nicknames that Bobo fell frequently. "Football prostitutes", both of whom were once the pride of Inter Milan, but after their heyday, they went to AC, their sworn enemy in the same city. No wonder international fans gritted their teeth to compare them.

Maybe the mood was affected, and Ronnie's performance was mediocre in the first 40 minutes. Falling in front of the penalty area attracted overwhelming abuse, and personal shooting mistakes ushered in another bad color. Ronnie finally couldn't stand it.

After the referee awarded offside, he kicked the ball into the net, and Meacha's fans were half angry and half laughing.

Ronaldo is still Ronaldo after all. Even if his body is still a little bloated, even if he has just been swept out by Real Madrid, as long as he is given a little time, he is still the unattainable alien in those years.

In the 40th minute, Ronaldo finally ushered in an opportunity to breathe in his chest. He used his personal ability to shake the opponent's defender, shoot, and the ball went straight into the net. Meacha instantly blew up, and the traitor's sword sealed his throat more than any other way.

After a moment of silence, the fans stood up and cursed and booed at the highest volume, but these could no longer erase the smile that finally appeared on Ronaldo's face.

Ronaldo was no longer troubled by the boos. He made a move of putting his hands on his ear, as if to make the boos come more violently. The boos gradually subsided, replaced by AC people's singing and cheers. Teammates ran up to celebrate, and Gattuso knelt on his knees and hugged Luo. Ni, as if looking at a king, in this game, Meacha finally showed a moment of weakness because of Ronaldo's arrival.

Although AC was eventually reversed by Inter, Ronaldo still became the biggest focus of media pursuit. After the game, in the mixed area, Ronnie confided to the reporter's microphone: "I'm very disappointed with the behavior of those fans. They not only insulted me, but also insulted my family. This fact makes me sad. Fortunately, my former teammates are not like this. Contrary to those fans, they have behaved me very much from beginning to end. Friendly. Inter played a great game today, and they deserve this victory.

As if to confirm his words, when asked by the reporter whether Ronaldo's goal was all due to luck, Materazzi, who had always been difficult to get along with, spoke for Ronaldo: "He has been working hard on the court, running hard and looking for opportunities. This goal is the reward he deserves."

The fact that the masters of each matter has not erased a little friendship between the players. The so-called "rebel general" is actually more from the indignation of the fans. What's more, the mobility of players in this era has been greatly improved. For example, the Figo generation has experienced the embarrassment of playing for two sworn enemies, who will really care about the so-called loyalty?

It is certain that Ronaldo, who has experienced two "betrayals" from Barcelona to Real Madrid, from the international to AC, will no longer have any psychological burden. If anyone else says rudely and scores goals, it is Ronaldo's best counterattack against these people.

In addition to Ronaldo, Maldini is also the focus of the game, which is his 600th Serie A game, but Maldini could not celebrate this milestone number with a victory.

"We still have a bitter taste in our mouths. I'm happy with my 600 games, but the ending of 1:2 is regrettable."

Maldini's performance in this game was excellent, setting an example for the whole team, moving horizontally to resolve Ibrahimovic's breakthrough, cutting the ball from Ibrahimovic's feet when he lost his balance, and grabbed a header in front of the goal before Crespo, including Ibrahimov's anti-offside in the second half. After success, Maldini tried his best to catch up and block it, forcing Ibrahimovre to lose the angle of the shot while flashing the ball. Maldini did everything he could, but some of it was beyond his control, such as his body.

"In the first half, he successfully blocked Inter Milan's attack, but in the second half, he fell as well as the whole team."

The media gave such an evaluation, mainly due to the decline in physical condition. AC Milan's team doctor has warned Ancelotti that Maldini can't play a week's double this season, but the Champions League is also important, and the Milan derby is equally important. Ancelotti chose to take the risk of letting Maldini play 12 on Wednesday. After 0 minutes, the whole game will be played.

So, in the second half of the sudden acceleration of the breakthrough against Ibrasimovic, Maldini was really powerless. In the insertion and upload before the end of the game, Maldini also had no way to control his footwork.

At the age of 39, 600 games, Maldini completed a miracle, but the miracle did not represent victory. A 39-year-old player won everyone's respect on the court, but he could not be asked to always be as good as he was 29 years old.

Baresi witnessed AC Milan's 1:6 defeat to Juventus before retiring, which was the collapse of a dynasty and an era.

After the game, when Digan left the stadium, he was also found by reporters, but he didn't want to make any comments on the game. In fact, there is nothing to say about this game. Although Ronaldo can still score goals, he is no longer the majestic alien that no one can stop him, although Maldini However, wonderful scenes can often be staged, but most of the time, what is shown to people is his powerlessness. Although Kaka works hard, the Champions League consumes him too much energy and physical strength.

So Inter Milan became the final winner, and AC Milan could only swallow the bitter fruit of failure.

Serie A has now reached the final stage, and Inter Milan's victory is a fore. Although Rome, which ranks behind them, Lazio still has theoretical hope of winning the championship, but the theory can only be a theory. It is unlikely to become a reality.

Now the most fierce competition is for the Champions League place. In addition to Inter Milan, Rome, Lazio, AC Milan, Florence and Empoli have formed a huge competitive group.

Florence's opponent in the next round is Rome, the direct competitor for a place in the Champions League.

Rome visited Florence, Aquilani and Chivo are still recovering, while Florence is absent from Dornadair.

After the game started, both sides played very actively. This is a competition related to the qualification of the Champions League next season. Neither side wants to lose and wants to take the initiative in the direct dialogue with their opponents, but the process of the game is ultimately plain.

Degan seems to have fallen into a low ebb after a period of madness. Following the last game, he once again failed. The two sides fought for 90 minutes and finally exchanged results. Fiorentina did not score at home for the first time since Prandelli took office.

And Degan's current main competitor Ibrahimovic scored in the third consecutive game, and the gap between the two sides was widened to four goals.

Two consecutive games were fruitless. If it were someone else, it would be considered very normal, but it would be different on Degan.

As long as there are fans in the world, everyone knows that Degan is a super shooter, and people have long been used to it. He can always create a lot of goals and constantly set a new record for any legendary striker in history.

Suddenly, Degan's fast gun became dumb, and of course people were not used to it.

Is Degan not working?

The reporters are excited. They have been waiting for revenge for too long.

But as soon as this idea was conceived in the minds of those reporters, Degan told them with a goal what the cruelty of reality is.

Florence challenged Digan's old boss Atlanta, with the captain's armband, and the four members. Before that, Ibrahimovic was still bring that he wanted to end the competition with Degan for Serie A gold boots early. As a result, after a game, the gap between the two was flat.

In the 23rd minute of the game, Montolivo made a long pass from the backcourt to the right. After Digan stopped the ball, he quickly broke into the penalty area and shot into the net with his right foot from a small angle. Fiorentina led 1:0!

In the 32nd minute, Abart made a cross from the right side and returned from injury. Pacini, who returned to the starting lineup, was pushed down by Loria and took a penalty!

Montolivo was the main penalty. Although he cheated the goalkeeper, he was rejected by the goalpost, but Digan caught up with the make-up shot in time, 2:0.

In the 39th minute, Albertini made a corner kick on the left side, and Degan headed the ball into the far corner eight meters in front of the goal, 3:0.

After the start of the second half, Fiorentina continued to strengthen its offensive. In the 65th minute, after Degan took the ball in the midfield, he went all the way into the penalty area of Atlanta and shot. Although the goalkeeper Tibi made a save, he was helpless. The angle of Digan's shot was too tricky and could only look at the ball. Sigh.

4:0!

There was also a warm scene in this game. Degan won four yuan alone, which blew up Atlanta's entire defense. However, what moved Atlanta fans was that after each goal, Degan refused to make any celebration action, and the fans also returned the favor. Although the team lost the game, they still It was a round of applause for Degan, a superhero who used to be Bergamo.

After the game, Degan also said in an interview: "Atlanta is a very important team for me. I started my career here. The fans here supported me at the beginning, and now I have not forgotten it. I came back here with a grateful heart. Today Atlanta fans gave me a very good courtesy, which made me very happy. I can only say that it was not my real idea, but some people or things here made me very disappointed!"

After the game with Atlanta, Fiorentina's next opponent was the league's deputy squad leader Ascoli. In the game that ended before that, Inter Milan won 2:0, and Ibrahimovic scored twice and surpassed it again.

Of course, Degan will not let the Swedes be unique. In an interview before the game, Degan also rarely expressed his opinion: "This contest did not exist from the beginning. The reason why I say this is that I have never regarded the Swede as my opponent. He is really good and powerful, but compared with me, he is not qualified yet!"

Damn it!

It's furious!

This is Degan!

As soon as the reporters heard this, they collectively ** in an instant. They had been waiting for Degan to chop for too long. At this time, they looked at Degan's arrogant look and looked at it, as if they had drunk iced soda on the dog days.

Digan also used his actual performance to prove to people that he is not the big mouth of Ibrahimovic. He can only say and can't do it!

Only four minutes after the game started, Ascoli made a mistake in the defense. Degan broke the ball first, and then went all the way forward, and his right foot shot vigorously into the net, which was his 26th goal of the season.

Compared with the past, this number of goals is not much, but you should know that Degan has missed 15 games before.

In the 33rd minute, the deputy squad leader almost equalized the score. Dibbigio made a free kick and Melala's header hit the lower edge of the crossbar. Fortunately, the goalkeeper Frey's response was fast enough to fish out the ball in time.

In the first half of stoppage time, Degan scored his 28th goal this season with a beautiful right foot shot 30 meters in front of the goal.

In the second half, Degan still didn't want to put away his knife quickly. When the game was 56 minutes, Fiorentina made a quick counterattack. Degan got the ball on the penalty area line, turned around calmly, shot with a shot, and the football went straight to the corner of the goal and scored another point.

In the 70th minute, Abat made a cross from the right, and Kavinage at the front point did not reach it, but Digan, who enveloped at the back point, easily headed the ball into the net, 4:0.

It's another big four!

Now that Degan is the world's number one striker, no one will object.

You know, in Serie A, which focuses on defense, it is very difficult to score more than 30 goals in a season, but Degan not only did it, but also did it so easily.
