In the minds of Fiorentina fans eagerly waiting for the start of the second half, the 15-minute intermission passed very slowly, and they had no choice but to give Sampdoria any chance to adjust and rest, and start the second half directly.

The feelings of the Sampdoria fans are completely opposite. They think that 15 minutes is not enough, but they hope that the intermission can be a little more time, so that the players can take a good rest, calm down and prepare for the second half. the match of. After all, they will have one less player in the second half, which is also a severe test for their physical fitness.

But whether they want time to pass fast or time to go slow, the real time is not transferred by their will.

After the 15-minute intermission, players from both sides reappeared on the court.

Sampdoria made a substitution at this time.

They replaced the left winger Zaza with the defensive midfielder Renan.

This is also in response to Obiang being sent off.

Fiorentina did not make any substitutions.

After the two sides changed sides and fought again, Fiorentina launched a very violent offensive towards Sampdoria's goal at the beginning of the game, which was the same as their performance in the second half of the first half.

Sampdoria, on the other hand, shrunk their defensive line and played their best defensive counterattack in the face of Fiorentina's offensive.

At half-time, Di Francesco let the players realize that Obiang's sending off is not the end of the world, but it may be an opportunity. Because after one person is missing, everyone can abandon other distracting thoughts and concentrate on defending. The success rate of such a defense may be lower than when the number of people is the same.

And whether it's setting up the bus or defending and counterattacking, the Sampdoria players are familiar with it. They're just getting back to doing what they do best, and there's nothing to worry about.

In addition, they are one goal ahead of Fiorentina. Even if they stick to their goal and fail to score, as long as the score is maintained until the end, they can still win.

However, as the game time goes by, if Fiorentina is unable to break through the Sampdoria goal again and equalize the score, then the initiative of the game will fall to Sampdoria again.

So the most important thing is not to panic, not to concede the ball at the beginning of the second half.

As long as this can be done, even if there is one less person, there is nothing to be afraid of.

So after the start of the second half of the game,

The Sampdoria players are gritting their teeth to defend, preventing Fiorentina from piercing through their defense.

They are actually very clear that in terms of strength, they are not as good as Gao Zheng. And it was because of Gao Zheng that they had the opportunity to touch the championship trophy.

When the media was promoting, they always raised Zheng Zheng, and the spotlight was only on Gao Zheng alone. They all seemed to be in the darkness of the stage.

But none of the Sampdoria players were unhappy, or envious.

Because they know very well that this is the truth. In fact, they have been enjoying Gao Zheng's light all the time.

Think about Icardi, after scoring 15 league goals last season, he can now play the main force in Inter Milan.

Based on Gao Zheng's performance last season, if he chose to leave the team last summer, where would he go? You must know that many wealthy teams were interested in him at that time.

But he chose to stay in the end.

He doesn't have to do this at all. There is no agreement or contract between him and Sampdoria. He can go to those rich teams and win the championship much easier than it is now.

If this is the case, the remaining Sampdoria players may not even be able to qualify for the Champions League, and it is even more impossible to experience the taste of the Champions League round of 16.

Coppa Italia final? Don't even think about it.

They have been enjoying all the benefits that Gao Zheng brought them, how could they hold back at such a critical moment?

Gritting his teeth desperately, he must never waste Gao Zheng's efforts!

So after the start of the second half of the game, many people gradually discovered that Fiorentina's offensive was very fierce, but they did not successfully break through Sampdoria's goal.

Things don't seem to be as simple as they imagined.

According to their vision, with one more player and still in full swing, Sampdoria will be in danger in the second half. How could Fiorentina not score?

But Fiorentina really didn't score.

Ten minutes into the second half, the score is still 2:1, with Sampdoria leading.

After the start of the second half, Montella, who was originally sitting on the coach's bench with a look of "sit firmly on the Diaoyutai", also got up and left the coach's bench at this time, and asked the assistant coach to call Mathias Fernandez from the bench.

He has already seen some clues.

I don't know what my former teammate Di Francesco said to the Sampdoria players in the locker room. Judging from the ten minutes of the game, the morale of the Sampdoria players is high, and there is no one less panic And at a loss.

If the game is allowed to go on like this and their own team can no longer score goals, Sampdoria's momentum may be completely lifted. At that time, the opponent will become more confident as they defend more, while their Fiorentina players will become more impatient as they attack.

He must make changes quickly, and as soon as possible, try to break through Sampdoria's goal as soon as possible.

Fortunately, during the intermission, the substitute players were allowed to stay on the court and were led by the assistant coach for warm-up training.

So now you don't have to wait for the warm-up, and you can directly substitute someone on the field.

So a minute later, Fiorentina completed the substitution.

Was replaced by the captain of the team, left back Pasquale.

Mathias Fernandez is an offensive midfielder, and this substitution is not a match-up substitution at all. Montella's plan is obvious, he just wants to strengthen the offense, for which he can sacrifice part of his defense.

In fact, this is also his helpless move. Of course he knows that if the team changes to a three-man guard, there will be more space in the defense, but if the team fails to score goals for a long time, the advantage will slip away from him sooner or later.

※※※

I have to say that Montella's substitution adjustment still played a role.

After Matias Fernandez came on, Fiorentina's frontcourt attack became more threatening.

There was another panic in front of Sampdoria.

In the fifty-ninth minute, Mathias and Fiorentina's midfielder Borja Valero made a collision with the wall in front of the penalty area and broke into the penalty area.

Facing the attacking goalkeeper Romero, he made a fake shot and made a dunk, shaking the opponent away!

"This is Florence's chance! Mathias—"

There were cheers from Fiorentina fans and screams from Sampdoria fans.

Montella straightened his whole body, looked at the door of Sampdoria, raised his hands involuntarily and clenched into fists, and took a ready posture for cheering.

But just after Mathias took the kick, the football hit Alberto Massi who would be placed behind goalkeeper Romero!

The football hit him firmly in the lower abdomen, causing him such pain that he almost fainted.

After the football hit his body, he hesitated that the position was very special, so it didn't bounce very far, but landed in front of him.

But in Marcy's situation, it is no longer possible for him to make a second reaction to clear the siege.

Football is still in the danger zone!

At this moment, Mustafi, the second Sampdoria central defender, rushed up and kicked the football out of the sideline with a big foot.

Sampdoria's crisis in front of the goal is finally over.

Seeing Marci, who was lying on the ground and clutching his stomach in pain, the Sampdoria fans' hearts were beating wildly, and they were still a little scared.

Xiao Yingying pointed to Marci on the TV screen and said to the others: "Did you see it? Can the pig teammate put himself in the hole of the gun!"

A group of male fans were silent, but felt a dull pain in their lower abdomen...
