Chapter 54 Eastern European Iron Rider
Degan's victory declaration spread to Ukraine, which immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the fans of the Donetsk Miners. In recent seasons, with the rise of the Miners, even the dominance of Ukraine's veteran strong team Kiev Dynamo has been lost, and the appetite of the fans is naturally getting bigger and bigger, and they have entered the championship for the first time. In the main game, they are preparing to show their strength to let the whole Europe see the emerging power of Ukrainian football. Now they have been ignored by Degan, which is not good.
"The Brazilian bastard who betrayed his motherland can only domine in Italy. He doesn't have the ability to defeat the powerful miners!"
"Is he the number one striker in world football? What a joke. He can only deal with the bad defense of those bad teams. Zeglinsky will let him know what a football field of blood and fire is.
"The miners will win, the Brazilian clown, go home!"
"The final victory must belong to the Miners, and Fiorentina will be hit in the head at home!"
Before the game started, Degan's words aroused a strong smell of gunpowder. Prandelli could feel that the game was not easy to play.
Prandelli also wants to advise Degan to stop and keep silent before the game, because of Degan's restlessness, Fiorentina is about to become a professional hate team.
But before Prandelli could speak, after arriving in Ukraine, Degan said in an interview with reporters: "The biting dog doesn't bark!"
Damn it!
This sentence simply became a super big Mars that ignited the gunpowder barrel. In an instant, the whole city of Donetsk was about to explode, and the football was raised to the first place. That night, when the Florentine players rested, their hotel was surrounded by angry miners fans.
The silence of the night was broken in an instant, and the noise and curses outside the hotel made people unable to sleep at all. The club staff in Florence quickly contacted the hotel, but the reply was that there was a rock concert downstairs!
Bitch!
"What's the reason for this? My players need to rest. As a hotel, you have the obligation to ensure our legitimate interests during the hotel!"
Prandelli found the energy of the hotel angrily. The noise outside and the sudden sound of music almost blew his head apart.
Through translation, the hotel manager said innocently: "I'm sorry, Mr. Coach, Ukraine is a free country. We have no right to interfere with people's normal entertainment activities. This is a rock concert. Maybe their music affects the rest of you and your team members, but I think this music Will it last too long? When the concert is over, you will get enough rest time. Of course, as a way to apologize, we will waive some of the fees during the hotel break!"
Listening to the hotel manager's strong words, Prandelli finally understood that they had fallen into the wolf's den. Originally, in order to prepare for the game, Prandelli also let the team leave in advance and go to Donetsk to familiarize themselves with the environment. Now it seems that they have taken a bad move.
It is said that Turkish fans are unreasonable. No matter which team's home is, it is hell. Now it seems that Ukraine is no less. These Eastern European soldiers are crazy about football.
In the hotel room, Degan lay down** with a calm face, as if the noise outside had no effect on him at all and would fall asleep at any time.
Montolivo, who lived in the same room with him, was not so lucky. He lay down in front of the window and looked at the crowd spreading joy and tossing downstairs. Montolivo felt that he was about to be driven crazy.
"Rod! We should find a way to calm them down!"
Digan still closed his eyes and said indifferently, "What can we do? Can we go down with a submachine gun and expel them all? Don't kill! Rikado! This is the territory of the Ukrainians, and everything they do here is reasonable!"
Montolivo groaned angrily, "Damn Ukrainians, when they go to Florence, I will call on the Italian government to conduct a military exercise where they live to see who is better!"
Digan was also amused by Montolivo's statement: "Rikado! I think you'd better recruit a group of beautiful women to make their legs weak, so that you can achieve more revenge!"
Montolivo heard this and muttered, "That's too cheap for them!"
"Okay! Rikado! Go to sleep! If you can't take everything outside seriously like me, you can naturally sleep!"
Although Degan said it easily, it was not like this in his heart. He had long been angered by the tossing people outside, but he also knew that he could not stop all this. These small measures of Shakhtardnez' fans really made people angry, but Degan did not want to wait until their home court. The most decent way to defeat the other party is to speak with strength on the court.
In the end, under Prandelli's constant protests, the manager of the hotel still chose to call the police. Ukraine was indeed not free enough to be fearless. The police quickly dispersed the crowd. The world finally became quiet. The Florentine players who had been tossed for a long time had been exhausted, but they had just fallen asleep and were downstairs. A burst of firecrackers woke up and suddenly became sleepy.
The players looked at each other with a wry smile on their faces!
These Ukrainians are really strange!
The morning, all the Fiorentina players were all black-eyed, angry and sleepy, which made Prandelli and his members of his coaching staff frown.
Finally, after discussion, Prandelli had no choice but to announce that he would cancel the morning training and let the players go back to make up for sleep. Otherwise, he would not have to wait for the game. In these two days, the players would be trapped.
"What should I do now?" Prandelli looked sad and gathered the members of the coaching staff and Degan together to discuss a solution.
Digan is the best of all. He is born with a big heart. To put it bluntly, he has no heart and lungs. He was so lively last night, but he was not affected at all.
Degan was also aware of the seriousness of the problem. Obviously, his teammates were not as generous as him, and they were tossed around last night.
"Let the club come forward! Negotiate with the other party, and I don't think they will be so shameless, hoping to win the game by this means!"
Prandelli also knew that this was the only solution.
The Florence club immediately protested to the Donezke Miners. Fortunately, the Ukrainians were really shameless. The behavior of the fans last night was to retaliate against Digan's arrogance. After receiving the protest from the Florence club, the Donetsk Miners did not say anything. "That's the personal behavior of the fans" and other bullshit, but the club president Akmetov personally stood up and immediately called on the fans to keep calm. They can defeat their opponents on the court and stop these small tricks to affect the image of Ukrainian football.
When the club speaks, the fans will naturally feel at ease. You know, with the rise of the Tweezers and the Miners, Akmetov's influence among the fans is not what ordinary people can imagine. Basically, he said last sentence can be compared with the imperial edict.
The world is quiet. After a solid day of rest, it is also the day of the game. Although the sleep problem has been solved, it has been tossed all night. It is impossible to say that it has no impact.
But this is the point, and it's useless to say anything else.
First to the Donbas Stadium, the Fiorentina players feel like they have been in a big city. Compared with the Flagy Stadium, this is simply a paradise and the venue that players dream of, but unfortunately, this is not Florence's home.
The stadium cost more than 200 million euros is one of the best in Europe.
"This stadium is awesome!"
Yesterday, Montolivo, who vowed to make Ukrainians look good, instantly adjusted the hate mode to worship.
Donbas Stadium is really great. The standards in all aspects are the highest in Europe, especially the lawn. Compared with here, the Vladimir Stadium was originally good, and it has become a rotten place.
However, there is nothing we can do. The ownership of all the stadiums in Italy belongs to the local municipal government, and each club can only be rented. Moreover, Italian law clearly stipulates that no club can build a stadium without permission. No matter how rich it is, Florence wants to own one. It is also impossible to have your own home court.
Digan suddenly found that the rise of the Shakhtar Donetsk in the future is not completely unreasonable. He has a rich, know-ball, enthusiastic club chairman of football, enthusiastic fans, and very good hardware in all aspects. If the Donetsk Miners can't rise, then It can only be their own problem.
Although Degan has constantly asked his teammates to be more careful with the first opponent in the group stage of the Champions League, now after seeing the tip of the iceberg of the Donetsk Miners, the alarm in his heart has been raised several levels in an instant.
After a simple warm-up, Prandelli gathered the team members to go to the locker room. Tactical training is not good. Who knows how many intelligence personnel there are here? In case the game hasn't started and all the old backgrounds on his side have been handed over, Prandelli has no place to cry.
As soon as Florence left, the miners' players arrived. At present, there are many popular players in this team, such as Srner, Ziglinski, Lewandowski, Fernandinho, William, and of course Lukare from Italy. Li!
The Ukrainian league started later, so this Champions League group stage became the first official game of the Shakhtar Donetsk team this season.
Digant deliberately fell behind and looked at the miners players who were doing warm-up activities on the court. I have to say that this Eastern European giant is indeed very characteristic. Except for a few Brazilian foreign aids, the other players are tall.
This team may still be unknown at present, but it will make the whole European football world look away in the future. Dynamo Kiev, a veteran strong team in Ukraine, has been chosen by them, which shows the strength of this team.
Digan left before attracting the attention of the coaching staff of the Miners. He didn't want to be treated as a spy, and Degan has always been very good at dealing with this powerful team.
In the dressing room.
Prandelli is making a pre-match tactical arrangement. In this game, he sent a new combination on the defensive line and played two consecutive league games of Lanokia, Uyfarusi and Thiago. Silva forms a group of central defenders, and the two full-backs are Pasqual and Abat. Obviously, Prandelli intends to make a big deal on the two sides of this game.
In the midfield, Prandelli still sent three midfielders, but surprisingly, Prandelli took Modric, who had always performed well in the previous game, and was replaced by a strong beast waist Machener, and his partners were Mota and Ledesma.
"Carlos! You will be the key to winning this game!"
Since his transfer to Fiorentina, Marcena's situation is far worse than his Spanish hometown Arteta. Although Alta has not been able to get the main position, he is an important rotation player of the team. In addition to the second round of the Champions League qualifier and Feyenoord, Macena has played as a substitute. Apart from the experience, it has not been first played.
Hearing this game, he actually became the main force, and Macena was also excited, but after listening to Prandelli's tactics, he was a little confused.
Prandelli looked at Machena and smiled, "What? Carlos! Don't you have confidence?"
No confidence?
What are you kidding!
At this time, even if you are hard, you have to do it: "No! Coach! I think I can do it well!"
Prandelli smiled and continued, "Okay! Next is Montolivo! Rikado! Your task is also very heavy in this game. I don't need you to carry out the last pass. You can play at will after taking the ball. I will give you absolute freedom. Your task is to disrupt the opponent's defensive deployment!"
After that, it was the striker. In this game, Prandelli actually sent two strong centers, Degan and Kavinage. Obviously, Prandelli was going to fight with the Donezke Miners.
"Okay! Boys! Do you have any questions? If not, I will be on the court later and enjoy the game. This is the first game after Fiorentina's return to the Champions League. I hope to have a good result! Use a victory to repay those who support you!"
