Messi was so scared that he cried when he maxed out his header talent at the start of the game

"ESPN Sports Satellite TV!"

"ESPN Sports Satellite TV!"

"Welcome to watch the live broadcast of the 2006-07 Champions League quarterfinals!"

"I am the commentator Zhan Jun!"

"This is my partner Wang Tao!"

"The two teams in today's game are Roma, the Italian Serie A powerhouse known as the Red Wolves!"

"And Manchester City, the Blue Moon who just completed an incredible 6:5 reversal to eliminate Barcelona in the round of 16!"

"The entrance ceremony is over!"

"The game is about to begin!"

"First, Please introduce the starting lineups of both teams!"

"The home team, wearing red, the Red Wolves, Roma!"

"Starting goalkeeper: Doni!"

"Defenders: Marco Cassetti, Philipp Mexes, Chivu, Panucci!"

"Defensive midfielder: David Pizarro!"

"Three forwards: Williamson, Daniele De Rossi, Manic!"

"Attacking midfielder: Francesco Totti!"

"Single striker: Mirko Vucinic!"

"Roma put five players in the midfield today! Midfield pyramid 4-5-1 formation!"

"Since Spalletti took over Roma last season, he has changed the team's traditional Italian defensive style."

"I like to use four offensive midfielders, with a single striker, to play offensive football!"

"But today, facing Manchester City, whether Roma's offensive football can be effective, let us look forward to it."

"........"

"Ahem, the other side."

"Visiting team, wearing blue, blue moon, Manchester City!"

"Starting goalkeeper: James!"

"Back Defenders: Zambrotta, Dunn, Cannavaro, Sun Jihai!"

"Defensive midfielder: Javi Martinez!"

"Left and right midfielders: Modric, Knight!"

"Three forwards: Cassano, Sufei, Podolski!"

"Manchester City still uses the regular starting 4-3-3."

"It is worth mentioning."

"Today's game is a game between Cassano and his old club. The Barry boy spent 4 and a half years in Rome."

When Zhan Jun talked about Cassano in the ESPN live broadcast room.

The fans who were paying attention to the recent news in the live broadcast room suddenly appeared.

-[Don't say it anymore, Cassano is going to hit his old club hard today, without mercy.]

-[Although I don't know why Cassano is angry at Roma, I think it's okay! Anyway, we had a bad time when we left, and the relationship has been ruined for a long time.]

-[It doesn't matter, Cassano is now backed by our Blue Moon fans! 】

-【Go for it, God of Cards! We must not only scold harshly, but also be merciful on the court! 】

If Cassano was watching the live broadcast at this time.

He must be very relieved.

Because he has been scolded since last night.

I have never seen so many voices of support.

However.

Although he can't see it, it can't stop the flame of revenge burning in Cassano's heart at this time.

........................................................

Sigh——

At this time in the Olympic Stadium in Rome, Manchester City, as the visiting team, was preparing to kick off, and the Red Wolves fans booed.

Beep!

With the referee's whistle, the game officially began.

Tacit understanding needs no words.

Su Fei directly kicked the ball to Modric behind him.

Modric made a diagonal kick and decisively sent the ball to Cassano who stepped over the center line on the left.

Cassano lightly unloaded the football.

Facing Christian Williamson.

Cassano and Williamson are not familiar with each other. Williamson, a 27-year-old Swede, is a player of Nantes in Ligue 1. He joined Roma on loan in January this year.

Sigh——

When the ball was at Cassano's feet, the boos in the Olympic Stadium in Rome became louder, and the fans in the front row yelled and cursed crazily.

"White-eyed wolf!"

"White-eyed wolf!"

"White-eyed wolf!"

Ordinary people can't stand such insults, let alone Cassano, who is like gunpowder.

This ball.

It must be impossible to pass from Cassano's feet.

"Cassano!"

"Continuous small steps to touch the ball to start!"

"Continuous change of direction!"

"Try to break through Williamson..."

"Beautiful!!"

"Passed!"

"Cassano dribbled the ball along the sideline and passed Williamson!"

Cassano's feet were full of wind, and he further distanced himself from Williamson.

Disappointed expressions.

appeared on the faces of Roma fans.

But 2 seconds later.

The Olympic Stadium in Rome erupted with cheers like a goal celebration.

Daniele De Rossi helped Williamson to make up for the defense.

Violent sliding tackle from the side.

Directly knocked Cassano over, and the football under his feet was also destroyed out of the sideline.

"Yeah——"

Cheers, huge cheers erupted from the stands, and the Roma fans had the pleasure of revenge on their faces.

And De Rossi, who knocked Cassano down, also sprayed trash talk.

"Antonio! This is what you deserve!!"

Cassano did not refute, but climbed up from the grass with a complicated expression.

De Rossi was born in the Roma youth training camp and made his debut for the Roma first team in October 2001.

You can say.

And that year, Cassano transferred to Roma. The two were very close because they were both new to the team.

There was a period of time when they often ate and trained together.

But today.

This man, who was regarded as one of Cassano's good friends in Rome, actually deliberately slid and violently knocked him down at the beginning of the game.

To be honest.

Cassano was a little sad.

................................................

On the side of the court, Manchester City's bench.

Oliver leaned close to Stuart's ear with worry.

"Boss~"

"Maybe in this case, it's not a good decision for you to send Antonio to start today..."

"His mood is very unstable at the moment."

Stuart didn't say anything, and his eyes never moved away from Cassano on the court.

The old man's idea.

Very simple.

This incident will indeed have a huge impact on Cassano.

But if Cassano is not allowed to play.

That is not a protection for him, but a harm.

The whole Manchester City.

No one needs to prove himself in today's game more than Cassano.

If Manchester City wins.

And Cassano does not play.

Perhaps this game will become a real demon that affects Cassano.

But as Oliver said.

Under the influence of Roma fans and old teammates, Cassano's mood is very unstable.

This may lead to his poor performance next time.

And that will be a problem for Cassano.

But.

There are not so many 100-point multiple-choice questions in life.

In the end.

You still have to rely on yourself.

.................................................

The game on the court continues.

Manchester City's first attack ended with Cassano being double-teamed in the frontcourt and losing the ball.

Roma turned to counterattack.

Panucci passed the ball to his own midfielder David Pizarro.

Pizarro passed the ball diagonally to Williamson on the left.

Williamson made a long pass and moved to Manchester City's weak defensive side, the right side.

Francesco Totti, the wolf king on the side, received the pass.

Stride fast.

The ball dribbled to the bottom.

In less than 5 seconds, Roma sent the ball to the front line through long passes between players.

This is also the offensive feature of Roma now.

In addition to being fast!

Still fast!

The main feature is speed!
