Chapter 287 Dead Enemy
Chapter 287 Dead Enemy
After a thrilling 3:2 victory over Parma, Cagliari finally dominated the top of the standings again, but Cagliari only occupied one day, because Juventus also defeated their opponents on the second day, and Juventus's opponent was Cagliari's opponent Roma in the next round.
After Prandelli resigned after coaching one game, Roma found his former exploits. Rudy Wöhler, who led the German team to the World Cup final in 02, became the head coach of the team.
As a player, Völler had played for Rome for five seasons, so the German head coach is no stranger to Roma, let alone Völler led the severely faulted German team to the World Cup finals and helped the German team survive the most difficult period.
And just this past summer, after the European Cup, Völler stepped down as the head coach of Germany and just happened to be at home.
However, judging from the current situation, Vorrell's life in Rome is not easy, especially after losing to Juventus, Rome is not far from the relegation zone.
All the next matches against Cagliari will be a life-and-death battle for Vorrall. There are rumors that the chairman of Rome has given the former hero an ultimatum, and the ninth round of the game must defeat Cagliari.
The chairman of Roma still firmly believes that Roma is one of the strongest teams in Serie A and a strong contender for the Serie A championship. The current results are an insult to Roma.
Mr. Roma Chairman is still dreaming of a strong team, and Roma fans are actually similar. As one of the strongest Serie A teams in the past few years, it is obviously difficult for them to accept the current record.
Not to mention that Rome will face Cagliari, led by Li Yi, after the first match last season, the two teams have successfully become rivals. In the current Serie A, the Romans hate Cagliari the most.
Although Lazio is the sworn enemy of Rome, in the hearts of the proud Romans, Lazio has fallen and is no longer worthy of competing with them.
The reason why Roma can only play in the UEFA Cup this season is because of the game against Cagliari last season. Although the UEFA Cup is also a European Intercontinental Cup, it cannot be compared with the Champions League. This is not only about honor, but also because of money.
In fact, not only the fans of Roma, but also the management of Roma, especially the chairman Sensi, Li Yi not only cost him tens of millions, but also made him lose face.
In the past summer, Roma tried to invite Li Yi to coach Roma, but unfortunately, Roma's invitation was rejected by Li Yi, and the refusal was very resolute, without any consideration.
In Sensi's view, this is a complete insult to Roma. Roma is a strong Serie A team and even has a certain reputation in the world. Sensi has always been proud to be the chairman of Roma.
This also predicts how Woller will feel when he meets Cagliari Sensi led by Li Yi at this time.
"The current results do not explain everything. I always firmly believe that Roma is one of the strongest teams in Serie A," Sensi said more than once in interviews.
"Worrell is an excellent head coach. I believe he can lead the team on the right track, and this step starts with defeating Cagliari." From Sensi directly calling Cagliari, we can know how much he hates Li Yi.
"If I remember correctly, Rome has not defeated us so far." Facing the chairman of Rome, Li Yi was naturally not polite.
After the conflict in the first exchange, Li Yi and Rome had no possibility of reconciliation, because Totti insulted not only him personally, but also the entire race.
Originally, Totti was very popular in China, but after that conflict, the entire Asian community didn't like him very much, let alone the country behind Li Yi.
Li Yi's words directly aroused the anger of the Romans. Immediately afterwards, the players of Rome stood up and expressed their determination to beat Cagliari in the next match.
However, what was surprising was that no one from Cagliari stood up to fight back, and even Li Yi did not accept any interviews.
Li Yi's performance seemed scary to the Romans. Although Vorrell immediately stopped the Roma players, it was a pity that Vorrell's reputation in Rome was not high, so his effect was limited.
Under such circumstances, Li Yi led the team to the city of Rome. In order to prevent any accidents, the mayor of Rome had to strengthen the security work. Not to mention the police patrolling the streets, the security of the stadium alone was doubled.
I have to say that Roma fans can indeed cause trouble. There were troubles in the Rome derby last season, and from the current situation, if it really continues like this, troubles will definitely happen again.
In fact, Cagliari is also worried that something will happen, so before leaving for Rome, Cagliari called on the fans who went to Rome to watch the game on the official website to act together as much as possible.
"Guys The Romans are already getting angry, so you have to be very careful not to be influenced by them." Apart from being upset with Sensi, Li Yi stepped up to influence Rome's preparations, and judging from the current situation, the Roman players were indeed affected.
And there was another reason why Li Yi dared to do this, because the referee in this match was a bald Collina, and Moggi's black hand became more and more obvious. Although he hadn't reached Cagliari yet, judging from Cagliari's current performance, it would be a matter of time.
Because Juventus wants to win the Serie A championship, it must cross Cagliari. After the eight rounds of the league, Cagliari is also the only team that threatens Juventus.
It is said that this season is also the last season of law enforcement with a bald head. After the end of this season, Collina had a very unpleasant dispute with the Italian referee because of the endorsement contract. The upright Collina chose an extreme method and retired directly.
Compared with last season, Roma's central defenders have changed. The departure of Samuel and Emerson has had a huge impact on Roma. Even this summer, Roma bought the French genius central defender Mex and returned to Aquilani.
It is said that Roma still has a lot of outstanding young people, especially the midfielder, not to mention De Rossi, if it is not because of injuries, Aquilani will also be a top midfielder.
But in this game, neither of the two teenagers was able to start, Tomasi, Perrotta, Mancini and Cassano, and the strikers were Totti and Montella.
On both sides of the defense are Panucci and Candela, the central defenders are Mex and Chivu, and the goalkeeper is Pellizzoli.
As for Cagliari, the goalkeeper Cehere can't move, the central defender combination is Barzagli and Chiellini, Maicon and Balzaretti on both sides, midfielder Conte and Guardiola, Ribery and Poboski on both sides, and striker Milito and Di Natale.
