Chapter 36 Beckham debut

Zahavi's analysis also calmed down. The things outside the court were left to the people outside the court. What he has to do now is the things in the court.

In the 17th round of Serie A after the winter break, Fiorentina played at home against Sampdoria who came to challenge. In this game, Degan did not enter the starting lineup. During the winter break, he traveled with Kaka and played with his little nephew all day. As a result, little Gaudí was fine, and Big Digan felt glorious. It's gone.

Fiorentina, who lacked Digan, finally defeated the opponent. In the 19th minute of the game, Marco broke through and knocked back. Montolivo shot low into the lower right corner 20 meters in front of the goal, scoring the only goal of the game.

After the 17th round of the game, people's attention immediately shifted to Milan's San Siro Stadium. In the next round, Fiorentina will challenge AC Milan away, and Beckham, who has completed the transfer procedures, is likely to appear in this game.

Beckham has played several warm-up games on behalf of Florence before. Although his physical condition has not fully recovered, he has also shown a high level, which makes people completely forget that he has transferred to Napoli's Donadale, and even Prandelli praised Beckham.

Digan also said in a previous interview: "I sincerely hope that Beckham can stay and stay in Florence for more than two months. He has proved himself to be a great player."

Think about it, Beckham's accurate long pass in the backcourt, and the Degan ball arrives in front of him. How many fans want to see this?

Will Beckham play in this game?

In response to the reporter's question, Fiorentina's head coach Prandelli said with a smile: "Why not? He trained very hard, and each of us can feel his desire to contribute to Florence!"

Beckham also confidently said that he was fully prepared: "In my life, I have never prepared for a game, because I am always ready to play football. Of course, I am not prepared enough, because in a championship club like Florence, I have to listen to the bishop. Practicing Prandelli's arrangement, from my personal point of view, I can play half-time or half an hour against AC Milan.

The media have also predicted that Beckham is likely to play as a substitute for AC Milan, and Beckham is also very satisfied with his experience in Florence. According to the media, this two or three months of training and game is an experiment for Beckham to return to European football. On the one hand, he wants to know if he still Being able to keep up with the rhythm of European football, and on the other hand, looking for a club that can satisfy himself, Florence's enthusiasm and positivity obviously made Beckham very satisfied.

Plandli did not disappoint people. In this game, Beckham appeared in Florence's starting lineup. Ancelotti and Galliani would certainly not be in a good mood when they saw this scene, because the closest to Beckham should have been AC Milan, who knew that he nodded in Beckham. Previously, Florence suddenly came out, completely disrupting AC Milan's good hand and cutting off the beard by the way.

Before the game began, Digan deliberately walked to Kaka's side. The two brothers chatted for a while. What Digan is most concerned about now is Kaka's next season. Although Berlusconi's statement that Kaka will stay in AC Milan, the current There are signs that Kaka's days in San Siro have entered the countdown, which may be summer or leave during the winter transfer period.

Of course, the focus of this game is not on the Wright brothers, but Beckham, who made his first appearance in Serie A. In the fifth minute of the game, Beckham got a chance to perform. Pacini broke through with the ball and was shoveled down by Karaze in front of the penalty area. Fiorentina got a free kick on the left side of the penalty area, Beckham, Degan And Modric stood next to the ball.

Degan came forward and whispered a few words to Beckham. Although his free kick was very disciplined to score directly in this position, this opportunity was still given to Beckham.

In the end, Beckham shot and bypassed the human wall, but failed to conquer Abiati and was held out of the crossbar by his sole palm.

Beckham also looked a little disappointed to see that the ball did not score, but this shot had already shown his deep skills, and Degan also gave Beckham a thumbs up.

In the 22nd minute of the game, AC Milan took the lead in breaking the goal and took the lead. Antonini's left cross was shot to the back point, and Pato's left foot passed Pasquale. 7 meters in front of the goal, his right foot pushed into the lower right corner, 1:0.

After scoring the goal, the San Siro Stadium was cheering. They have been suppressed by Fiorentina for two seasons, making Milan's fans a little breathless. Now that the team has taken the lead, they have begun to look forward to a victory.

After the score, Fiorentina is still not arrogant and impatient. Beckham is very active on the court. He not only often pushes forward to participate in the attack, but also often returns to the penalty area to assist in defense.

In the 25th minute, Kaka shot outside the penalty area and was blocked by Beckham. In the next twenty-eighth minutes, Beckham pulled to the right side of the court and passed an arc ball to the middle. Unfortunately, Degan followed up a little slower and did not reach it. He was preempted by Senderos. Relieve the encirclement

At the end of the first half, the game on the field was still 1:0. In the second half, the two teams changed sides and fought again. As soon as they came up, Beckham got a shot 24 meters in front of the goal, but unfortunately his right foot shot was slightly higher.

Florence equalized the score in the 48th minute. Pasquale's left rib broke through the ball, Digan's bottom line kickback on the left side of the penalty area and dodged Abat's back pass. Pacini grabbed the front point and did not touch the ball, but Montolivo, who followed at the back point, pushed the ball into the empty goal less than two meters in front of the goal, 1:1.

After equalizing the score, Florence became more and more brave, and Beckham gradually entered the state. Finally, Florence overtook the score in the 52nd minute.

Beckham's midfielder made a long pass to Degan. After Degan received the ball, his left rib rushed through Senderos at a high speed. On the left side of the penalty area, he rubbed his left foot at a small angle and crossed Abbiati, who fell to save him, into the far corner, 2:1.

Then Kaka tried to copy Degan's goal, but Compani shoveled the ball out of the bottom line at the last minute.

Lost at the door, of course, AC Milan's generals were unwilling. In the following game, Ancelotti frequently dispatched troops. In the 71st minute, after Kaka's right side kicked the wall with Sedorf, he broke into the penalty area. Inzaghi shot 14 meters in front of the goal and was killed by Thiago. Silva blocked it, but Kaka, who followed up in time, stopped the ball when it was about to fly out of the penalty area, and then flew directly into the far corner without waiting for the football to land, 2:2.

In the next game, the two sides also got several opportunities, but unfortunately, the heat of the door was slightly worse, and in the end, the two sides shook hands 2:2.

After the game, Beckham's performance in this game replaced the Wright brothers for the first time and became the focus of the match between Fiorentina and AC Milan.

Before the start of the game, people were still speculating about whether Prandelli would let Beckham play. As a result, Beckham not only played, but also played first.

After the game, the British media also praised Beckham. The Daily Telegraph quoted Capello as saying, "Whenever Beckham decides what to do, he can usually do it."

Now Beckham's goal is to play like Maldini until he is 40 years old, and teams around the world will compete to invite him until his 40th birthday.

Prandelli also affirmed Beckham's performance at the post-match press conference: "Beckham won the position with his performance in training, and I made the decision to let him start yesterday. If Coach Capello needs a report on Beckham, I am very positive here. I I have brought many excellent players, but professional qualities like Beckham are still rare.

Capello did not expect that Beckham would start against AC Milan. Although he had a rich network in Italy, he did not send anyone to observe Beckham, but the British media flocked to him.

The 33-year-old Beckham made his first appearance in Florence and has been widely recognized by the national media. Capello's call to Beckham during the national team's training will also be a matter of sailing.

Beckham was still very excited in the interview.

"It's incredible to play with a group of stars in this club," Beckham described his mood. "Sometimes you just need to give the ball to them, and they can do the rest well. It's inevitable to feel pressure to play for such a club. I usually don't before the game. I'm too nervous, but today I'm a little bit. After all, I've returned to this level of the team and played with the best players in the world. Now I feel better and stronger than I expected.

For this game, Beckham has been preparing for a whole month. Two days before the start of the game, he followed the whole team to Milan. Local "paparazzi fans" thought that he would go shopping in the center of Milan for commercial shopping. He had already lurked for a long time, but it was empty. Only then did he learn that Beckham had been staying in the hotel all afternoon. Take a rest.

Beckham sighed a lot about his debut: "I really hope to win the first game, but this result is also good. I'm very happy on the court. It's so beautiful that I can start my trip to Italy on such a glorious stadium as San Siro. Is it a surprise for the start? I never think much about these things and don't make predictions. I just want to train hard. So far in my career, I have done a lot and gained a lot, but I still feel infinitely honored to get a starting opportunity immediately after joining Florence, and I am excited to play side by side with some of the best players in the world. I feel very lucky. Luck, I can still make such a debut at the age of 33. When Coach Prandelli announced this decision at the technical meeting the day before the game, my excitement was really difficult to express. From this, I also understand that I can still stick to high-level football. I want to play until the age of 40 like Maldini.

There are also media in England that are not optimistic about Beckham's future in Florence, declaring: "Becketham has come to such a big stage as Italian football. Although the fans there still love him deeply, he is too old and too slow to expand himself commercially on the football field. There's very little he can do!"

But after the game, I believe that such negative comments will come to an end. Whether it is the team's head coach Prandelli or the team's captain Degan, Beckham's debut has been recognized.

and AC Milan's game, although the goal was scored by Digan and Montolivo, there is no doubt that the protagonist of this game is Beckham.

What surprised people was that from the first minute of the game, Beckham appeared on the court, and from the moment the referee blew the opening whistle, Beckham became the protagonist on the San Siro court.

As soon as the kickoff, Beckham cooperated with right-back Marjo. Since then, Beckham has become an active participant in the game.

In the first half of the game, Beckham still appeared more in the backcourt. The only time he participated in the attack was the free kick. Unfortunately, the football was rejected by Abiati at the moment he was about to cross the goal line.

However, as AC Milan scored the first goal, Beckham participated more and more in Florence's attack. In the 28th minute, Beckham sent his first pass, but unfortunately Digan did not reach it, and Senderos took the ball first to relieve the siege.

Entering the second half of the game, Beckham ushered in his first shot in Italy. Fiorentina made a corner kick from the left, Beckham received Montolivo's return, right foot outside the penalty area to the far corner of the goal, but AC Milan goalkeeper Abiati fell to the ground and saved the ball.

After that, Beckham's physical strength declined significantly, but he still actively appeared in the attack. Degan's goal came from Beckham's long pass.

In the whole game, Beckham contributed twelve passes to Fiorentina, two tackles were effective, and there was another break, one relief and one assist.

After the game, some media even called the game "Beckham Night", and in the post-match scoring, Beckham scored 6.5, the second highest score after Fiorentina's team Degan. Obviously, Beckham's moderate performance was approved by the Italian media.

In this game, it can be seen that Beckham did not seem uncomfortable. He was able to really participate in Fiorentina's offensive system, instead of staying in the middle and backcourt most of the time as in previous warm-up games.

Beckham's 12 passes can show that he can run to the position in attack. Considering that he has played in the major leagues for a year and a half, it is really valuable to adapt to Serie A so quickly.

After the game, Prandelli did not hide his love for Beckham: "I think through this game, Beckham has proved that he is a smart player who can bring balance. His training is also very good, and he is in good physical condition, so the start of this game is to integrate into the team so quickly. A reward."

And Beckham also commented on his performance: "This is my first game in Florence. I feel very good and I am satisfied with my performance. Before the game, Coach Prandelli told me that I would be useful to the team and will become AC Milan. A strange soldier in the game."

In fact, Beckham really did it. Although Fiorentina only got one draw, that assist is crucial to this game.

For joining Fiorentina, Beckham hopes to exchange this for the trust of England coach Capello. Although Capello failed to watch the game in person, Capello later watched the video of the game. After affirming Beckham's performance, Capello also recalled that he was in Real Madrid with Beckham's past and took the initiative to admit his mistake.

"I was wrong. At that time, after he had signed a contract with the Galaxy, the club asked me to decide whether to exclude him from the list. My decision at that time was wrong to exclude him from the lineup, but he still insisted on training carefully. Later, I found my mistake and I was not afraid to admit it, so I recruited him back to the lineup until he left. It was also because of his excellent performance that Real Madrid won the league championship that season.

A debut, whether in Italy or England, people are talking about Beckham. At this time, an Italian media threw out an unexpected topic one by one because Beckham, Degan and others were "forgotten".

The article in this media is full of worry, worried that the arrival of Beckham will trigger the subconscious jealousy of Fiorentina players and affect the balance of the team.

But several big names of Florence came out to refute doubts. Degan said, "He is a kind and lovely person. I am willing to help him become the protagonist of Serie A. Florence is not a vain galactic fleet, but a collection of many players who are willing to sacrifice themselves."

Montolivo said: "There is no any kind of jealousy in our team. Everyone has their own position and their own form of expression. Beckham has everything today, which he won, and his performance on and off the court also deserves these treatments."

Fellaini, who has a competitive relationship with Beckham, had a bad smile in an interview: "That's right! David is really a disaster. He doesn't have the ability to integrate into our team. He has caused us a series of big troubles!"

Then Fellaini made a big reversal under the stunned eyes of the reporters. He laughed and returned to seriousness: "He is very creative. He has enough wisdom and coordination ability. Besides, Florence can make all newcomers feel comfortable. We should be patient and not expect him to do something immediately. Because even experienced people need to adapt and run in time. His time is still too short. We will do our best to make him our value-added!"

Ledesma said: "Media pressure is a normal phenomenon in this society. The media has its own jobs, which has nothing to do with us."

Fans are relieved that compared with Beckham's infinite light, fans obviously want to see the overall harmony of Florence. The attitude of Degan and others is a reassuring pill for the top of the club and the Florentine world.

Because of this inclusive attitude and long-term vision of Florence, Beckham was also recognized by everyone after his debut.

Beckham was affirmed by most people. Of course, except for Milanese, they were originally looking forward to Beckham's arrival. As a result, Beckham actually broke the appointment and threw himself into the arms of the Florentines, which made AC Milan fans not hate.

Milan's media is also full of satire on Beckham. In their words, Beckham is like a lonely soul on the court. He can't find himself or his teammates. He doesn't know where to stand. He is a completely superfluous person. He can't reach a consensus with the people around him, and runs weakly from him. Looking at it, he didn't want to reach a consensus with his teammates. Florence was paralyzed on the right side like a stroke patient, and the ball only moved in the left half.

In defense, Beckham's drag is too far behind and his interception ability is too poor to distinguish whether it is a defender or a midfielder. The distribution of roles and positions between him and Marjo is very chaotic, and his sense of self-protection is too great. Beckham does not actively participate in teamwork and there is no threat.

Beckham also seemed very generous about the criticism of the Milan media: "I can understand their feelings. Before I came to Florence, I was very close to AC Milan, but now it doesn't make sense to say this. I'm satisfied with today's game. I feel good. Three months After re-entering the field, it is very wonderful to be with such a great team as Florence, not to mention that I feel a perfect team atmosphere.

Of course, the performance of the game is not enough to explain everything. What people are most concerned about is how much Beckham has recovered after training with Florence for a month.

"We all know the characteristics of Italian football and the way to prepare for the game. It's too difficult for me. The training mode here is similar to Manchester United, but it's too strong. I don't think there are many teams around the world that can always maintain such a high intensity like Florence, but I like it very much. I just have to train hard. Practice, I get some useful things from every training and every minute in Florence. Moreover, it really makes me so happy to play football with my current teammates. Every detail makes me very happy. The atmosphere of the team is like a fairy tale. Although it is very tired, I said that I like to be tired.

Beckham also said frankly that he did not regret choosing the United States for giving up Europe: "I will never regret doing things. In Los Angeles, I have spent and will continue to spend good times. Now I am in Florence. I am a lucky man. Not everyone has my experience. I don't ask about the future. I just want the present. Two months."

But now, after this game, more and more people believe that Florence and Beckham will have a long-term marriage.

You should know that when Beckham transferred to the Los Angeles Galaxy in 2007, there was an additional clause in the five-year contract that he could be terminated early after three seasons, that is, at the end of the American Major League in November this year, Beckham only needed to pay a certain amount of compensation and could choose to leave, but this requires Seeing this, Beckham will not ignore whether his performance can persuade Florence to completely introduce him. Once he finally joins Florence, he will be much more likely to participate in the 2010 World Cup.

Previously, Degan had sent an invitation to Beckham, but their plan was to let Beckham play until the end of the season.

If it is a permanent transfer?

"Why not?" Degan laughed and said in an interview, "In this game with AC Milan, David's performance, I believe that no team will refuse such a player. He is very strong, yes! Very powerful, of course, most importantly, David is a very professional person, and people's eyes only focus on his business activities, but what I want to say is that even if those activities take up a lot of his time, he spends less time on the training ground than any player in Florence!"

Degan was indeed moved. Previously, he just wanted Beckham to play until the end of this season to fill the vacancy left by Donadale. After all, Beckham is about 34 years old. No one knows how long his state can last, but at the end of the game with AC Milan After that, Degan changed his mind, and Beckham might really be able to play until he was 40 years old.

Beckham also responded to Degan's positive attitude at the first time: "I feel very good in Florence. There are the best teammates here. They are all very young. Playing with them makes me feel as if I have returned to the original Manchester United. This feeling makes me very excited that I respect Los Angeles Galaxy. The team's contract, but I really hope to stay and contribute my strength to this team.

Subsequently, Florence's executive chairman Pakinwa also jumped out and brushed his sense of existence: "Will Beckham stay? I'm not sure yet, but I will work hard to make all this a reality, Beckham's future? We all hope that his future will be purple!"

Florence fans are happy now. If Beckham can really transfer, who dares to say that Fiorentina is an upstart and a country team?

At that time, all Fiorentina fans can proudly say: We have the two best top stars in the world!

Lang is affectionate, my concubine is interested!

In this way, Beckham's willingness to accompany his husband's Los Angeles Galaxy is like a villain.

However, it's still too early to say anything. It's better to leave the future to solve it in the future!
