Chapter 159 End
White Hart Lane Stadium, the second round of the first round of the UEFA Champions League knockout match between Tottenham Hotspur and Florence this season is about to begin. In this game, Antiennis has made adjustments in several positions. The goalkeeper sent veteran Frieder, and the central defender partner has also become Dawson and Caulke, with the most stable position. It's the striker, and Degan still serves as the team's single arrow in this game.
Before the game, there was also media speculation that in the case of a 3:0 victory in the first round, Degan may be arranged to rest in this game. After all, from the last game, Degan's feelings for Florence are definitely not as simple as they say. Continuing to let Degan play the game is a little cruel to Tottenham fans. .
Degan has stressed his feelings for Florence several times. If the Tottenham fans say they don't care, it is absolutely impossible, but they can understand. After all, Degan has played in Florence for four years and reached the peak of his career in Florence. If he has no feelings at all, then It's called strange.
Digan misses his old master, but so what? Degan is now a player of Tottenham. He is leading Tottenham to win continuously. This is the luck of Tottenham fans. They are lucky to enjoy a good form of Degan showing the best football at White Hart Lane Stadium.
Be~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The referee whistled and the game officially started. Tottenham took the lead in attacking. After Digan received the ball, he did not immediately pass the ball out, but controlled the ball in place, waiting for the Fiorentina players to come up to defend.
Bel and Lennon are plugging in at high speed. Both of them are famous fast horses in the Premier League, and Fiorentina's defenders can't keep up with their speed at all.
Degan saw the opportunity and ignored the Fellaini in front of him. With a large-scale transfer, the football went directly to Bell's feet, and then Degan rushed to the penalty area of Florence at high speed.
After the last game at the Flagy Stadium, now that Degan faces Florence again, he is basically able to adapt.
Degan's long pass accurately found Bell. When the football landed, there was a small internal spin. Bell could stabilize the ball almost without effort. After holding the ball, Bell dunked the ball to the right side of his body. Although he could not completely shake away Fioren's defenders, the angle was enough.
At this time, Degan had run to the front of the Florence penalty area, and Bell immediately made a long pass and hit the left side of the Florence penalty area.
Although Degan and Bell have been playing football together for a long time, the tacit understanding between the two has been cultivated. Digan is clear about Bell's passing route and the way of passing the ball.
Seeing Bell's pass, Degan started at a high speed at the first time. His explosive power, which was higher than ordinary people, was fully displayed at this moment. Regardless of whether the border judge would raise the flag or not, he ran towards the landing point of the football defense line.
Florence's defender raised his hand, but the linesman was not moved at all. Just now, he saw very clearly that at the moment when Bell passed the ball, although Florence's defender consciously pressed forward, Degan was right in front of the last player in Florence's defense, just such a gap in position. Florence's offside tactics completely failed.
Degan succeeded in offside. When he received the ball, there was no defensive player around him. Although the goalkeeper Siligu decisively chose to attack, how could his speed be comparable to Digan?
Stop the ball, take the ball, shoot!
All of Degan's movements were completed in one go. Although Siligu tried his best to save, at this moment, the gate of Florence was opened. How could his strength alone stop Degan from scoring?
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!" Smith jumped up the moment the football crossed the goal line and shouted with a microphone, "Digan! Degan! Degan! Degan's goal, less than a minute after the opening, Degan knocked on the door to victory for Tottenham Hotspur. The wonderful attack, from the referee whistled to the goal, Tottenham had only three-legs to pass, and tore the Fioren's back line!"
After scoring the goal, Degan still did not celebrate, but slapped and hugged Bell who ran over. Fellaini and others couldn't help but be distracted.
No one can stop the best Degan, and Fellaini is probably the most aware of this truth.
"Although this attack just now was only passed by Degan and Bell, the running of Tottenham's whole team has also contributed a great role. It's hard to believe that although Tottenham's attack was also very wonderful last season, it was far from achieving the effect of this season. I have to say that this is the role of the stars. A real star can drive the team's combat effectiveness, and Degan obviously has such ability!"
If Fellaini hears Smith's words, he will definitely laugh. When Degan was in Florence, the players around him were not a nobody when they first came, but they were by Degan's side. Their progress is rapid. Today, which one is not famous in world football. The character.
Now Degan has brought his role to Tottenham, so that Tottenham players are growing rapidly one by one. In time, it may be this white lily blooming in North London that may succeed the Purple Lily Dynasty.
The game restarted, and the Florentine soldiers who were unwilling to fail also launched a fierce counterattack under the leadership of Fellaini. Although Florence is far from the beginning, which was feared by the whole world football, now there are only a few people left in the team, but Frot The background of Lensa is still there, and they are not willing to wither completely like this. Even if they are dying, they have to fight to the end
Fellaini still remembers the words that Digan and Fellaini said at Degan's house yesterday, which also made him understand that he did not stay in Florence so that people could have a person as a reference when they remembered the purple lily dynasty. He was not yet ready to be put in the museum for people to admire. ne.
Since he put on the captain's armband of Florence, he also took over the responsibility left by Degan. He wants to take the purple lily back to the peak. Since Degan can do it, even if he is much different from his ability and Degan, he will not admit that he can't do it.
Florence's fierce attack has indeed received some effects, but it is obviously too naive to knock on the gate of Tottenham Hotspur.
In the first half of the game, Montolivo's midfielder passed the ball. He and Pacini have been playing together since the Atlanta youth team. The degree of tacit understanding is unmatched by anyone.
At the moment of Montolivo passing the ball, Pacini was already running. Spalletti on the sidelines also stood up excitedly when he saw this scene, but before he reached the sidelines, the expression of excitement on his face was replaced by disappointment.
Sandro tackled the ball, stopped Montolivo's pass halfway, and then got up and made a long pass. Degan inserted at high speed and jumped high at the front of the penalty area. Before grabing La Nokia, the header ferryed the ball to the left road. Bell followed and saw that Digan had stabilized his figure and passed it directly. Ball.
While landing, Digan kicked on the ground with his right foot, as if he had been thrown out, rushed behind La Nokia, judged the landing point of the football, took off easily, and headed the goal.
This time, Siligu's reaction was faster. As the recognized successor of Buffon in Italian football, Siligu's ability is absolutely first-class. Although Degan's header was strong, Siligu still reached out in front of the goal line and blocked it, but before he could get up, a figure directly passed him. Go, and then he heard a burst of cheers from the stands.
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!" Smith's classic shouts sounded again in the studio, "Digan! Degan again! Although his header was blocked by Fiorentina's goalkeeper Siligu, Degan followed a make-up shot, so that the brave Siligu just now had nothing to do, 2:0! Tottenham's promotion has completely lost the suspense!"
This time, after scoring, Degan did not deliberately control his emotions again. He rushed directly to the sidelines, crossed the billboard on the sidelines, crossed the low wall of the stands, and jumped into the fans.
At this moment, Degan completely cut off his connection with Florence.
Seeing this scene, I don't know how many Florence fans who are watching the game at home feel deeply sad and are killed by their favorite people. This feeling is simply indescribable. At this moment, Florence fans are experiencing this pain.
2:0, the total score became 5:0!
There is no suspense in the game, and the only thing people are still thinking about now is whether Fiorentina can score a face-to-face goal, not only for them, but also for Italian football.
The decline of Italian football is a commonplace. Degan, like most Chinese fans, grew up watching Serie A in his previous life. Remember the 1994 World Cup, Robert. Baggio brought Italy from hell to heaven and lost from heaven to hell with his own strength. The fallen back of Baggio after losing the penalty was always imprinted in the minds of every fan. Until today, recalling that summer, there was always infinite sadness in his heart. From then on, he couldn't help falling in love with Italian football. At that time Serie A is known as the Little World Cup. AC Milan, Inter Milan, Juventus, Rome, Lazio, Florence and Parma compete for hegemony. Every Sunday night, Degan is in front of the TV and enjoys the football feast. So far, the characteristics of the Serie A teams at that time are still rare, noble and gorgeous. AC Milan, Inter Milan, the old and cunning Juventus, the offensive Lazio and Roma, Parma, who is always plotted by the referee, and Florence by Barti alone are his favorites. All the top players play in Serie A. Each team has a very appealing star, Baggio, Via, Zola, Bati, Piero, Inzaghi, Zidane, Totti and Ronaldo, these superstars all flashed in a starry sky. At that time, many stars chose to go to La Liga or the Premier League. The three European Cups were regarded as a bag by Serie A.
However, with the outbreak of the phone door scandal, Serie A's vitality was greatly damaged, and the teams were not well managed. Except for AC Milan and Inter, most teams had a financial crisis, and the wealth of La Liga and Premier League teams finally created the vicissitudes of football.
Speaking of which, the phone door is just an incentive, because other countries also have fake black whistles, Juventus relegated, but Italy's excellent players have not disappeared.
The decline of Italian football is mainly due to the aging of personnel. Why are personnel aging?
is because there are too few newcomers who can stand out. Why are there too few newcomers?
It's because Italian clubs don't like to train young players, or they don't like to train players from their own country. Why is this?
Because the children in their own country have few seedlings, few people, and do not train hard. In fact, the reason is to train players of the same level. They buy players from South America, Asia and Africa or the cost of training these players is much lower.
However, if a country wants to have a high level of football, it must cultivate more young people in its own country. Only when its competitiveness is improved can it be attractive to those excellent foreign players.
There are three key areas for the decline of the Italian football industry. First, the low income of Serie A teams is mainly concentrated in TV broadcasting rights, which is vulnerable to the changing development of the media industry. Second, the salaries of Serie A players have been increasing exponentially, and the total cost of salaries has reached unsustainable levels. Third, the lack of competitive reputation in Serie A has affected Serie A's income due to a series of scandals. Among them, the 2006 competition fraud investigation, the 2009/2010 gambling scandal, not only the teams involved in the fake game scandal, but also the total income of all clubs has been affected. These scandals have a secondary effect, which will also affect the club's income.
As the best football game in the world, the Italian Football League was originally well-known all over the world, but with the departure of star players and the superstars being poached by La Liga, the Premier League, Ligue 1 or other teams that can pay huge salaries, there are no superstars in Serie A.
The quota of four teams in the UEFA Champions League qualifiers may soon become only two teams appearing in the highest-level competition in continental Europe.
The number of spectators in Serie A has decreased by 5% every year, and more importantly, the financial situation of Serie A teams is deteriorating. Serie A is flooded by poor financial conditions. Although football is still the most popular sport in Italy and shows greater interest and ** than other places in Europe, the club's income is lower or stagnant at the international level, and even declines over time.
Degan's departure from Florence is a heavy blow to the Serie A and lost the last appealing superstar. Now the Serie A is becoming more and more bland. Although it is still playing well in China, its competitiveness in European football cannot be the same as before.
Originally, Florence was the last fig leaf of Italian football, but now there is no last fig leaf. What is left of Italian football?
There is nothing left!
It's sad to fight for dignity. You know, Florence was the most powerful club in the world football more than two years ago, but now, they can only live in people's memory.
Before the end of the first half, Degan once again broke into the penalty area of Florence and tripped directly by Ranokia. Looking at Degan who fell to the ground, La Nokia was a little confused at that moment, the former leader and the current enemy.
There was nothing to say. The referee immediately awarded a penalty and showed a yellow card to Lanokia, which was already a mercy. If it hadn't been for Florence's face, La Nokia's foul just now was enough to give a red card.
In the past, Tottenham's penalty was dominated by Modric and Bell, but this time, Degan pushed both of them away. Degan, who had always disliked the penalty, stood in front of the penalty point this time.
"Do you really want to bury Florence with your own hands!" Antienis stood on the sidelines and muttered to himself.
That's right!
The person who is qualified to bury Florence can only be Degan, because it can be said without boast that the establishment of the Purple Lily Dynasty is the credit of Degan. Since the founder is him, the person who destroys the Purple Lily Dynasty now can only be him. Degan does not allow anyone to intervene.
"Digan stood in front of the penalty spot. Is this ball going to be punished by himself?"
When Degan walked to the penalty spot, I don't know how many old Fiorentina fans will have a familiar feeling about this scene.
On April 6, 1991, Fiorentina played against Juventus at home, and just transferred to Robert of Juventus. Baggio also got a penalty, but facing the gate of his old boss, Baggio made a decision that made all Juventus fans to refuse the penalty one by one.
The penalty was changed to by De Agostini, which was saved by Fiorentina goalkeeper Marreguini and Juventus lost 0:1 away.
Bacho left the field with a Florence purple scarf given to him by the fans around his neck. Juventus fans still can't forgive Baggio's refusal to take a penalty. Therefore, during his five years of playing for Juventus, Baggio has not really been supported by most Juventus fans.
Bacho refused to take the penalty because of his feelings for Florence, and Degan also stood in front of the penalty point because of his feelings for Florence.
Fellaini came over with anger in his eyes. He couldn't understand what Degan did: "Are you really going to do this?"
Digan smiled and said, "Some things have to be done by someone!"
At this time, the referee came over, drove Fellaini out of the penalty area, and then blew the whistle of the free throw. Degan did not run, but directly waved his legs in place and fired vigorously.
Although Siligu judged the right direction, the power of Degan's foot was so great that he directly wiped his fingertips and flew into the goal.
3:0!
When Degan shot the penalty, the referee also blew the whistle at the end of the first half of the game.
People didn't notice, but the camera captured a scene. Degan kept his head down when he came down, which was really rare for Degan, who had always been used to holding his head high.
Antiennis walked over and patted Degan on the shoulder. The two walked off the court together. Antiennis knew how painful it was to destroy his favorite with his own hands.
At the beginning of the second half of the game, fans and reporters were surprised to find that Degan was missing, and the person standing in front of Tottenham's formation became Togo striker Adebayo.
In the second half of the game, Fiorentina and Tottenham Hotspur played a tacit understanding for 45 minutes. Although Tottenham Hotspur had many opportunities, Adebayo's ability to seize the opportunity obviously could not be the same as Degan.
In the end, the score of this game was fixed at 3:0, with a total score of 6:0. Tottenham eliminated Florence and moved on. Their next opponent will be Schalke 04 from the Bundesliga.
At the post-match press conference, when a reporter asked Antiennis why Digan was replaced in the second half, Antiennis just said: "Recently, Rod has been too tired. He has participated in too many games. He is too tired! I just hope I can give him a break. It's not surprising! It has nothing to do with who the opponent is. Rod played very well in this game, and the victory was guaranteed at that time. I don't need to let Rod stay on the court. Next, we have more and more important games to play!"
The reason given by Antienis is reasonable, but people know that things will certainly not be that simple. Degan's midfielder has nothing to do with his opponent Fiorentina?
You won't believe it even if you die!
But what does it matter if people believe it or not?
The game is over, Tottenham Hotspur will continue to move forward, Florence has got rid of a burden, and then they can devote themselves to the league, which may not be a bad thing for Florence now.
The only thing that makes people feel sad is that the Purple Lily Dynasty, which once shocked the world football, completely collapsed after these two games, and it was the original founder Degan who destroyed him. With six goals in two games, Degan really did not leave any affection for his old club.
"Don't ask me those boring things. I only have the next game in my eyes now. Let him go in the past!"
