My name is Colani

Roma attaches great importance to this game. Their current point difference is only 5 points away from Milan. However, after the New Year, their state is slightly worse. They were eliminated by Milan in the Italian Cup and beat Juventus 4:0 at home in their last game. , the team's morale recovered.

Capello was full of praise for Trapani at the pre-match press conference.

"Trapani is not a simple team. They have just been upgraded from Serie B this season, but they have proven that they have the ability to gain a foothold in Serie A! Coach Colleini called out to enter Europe. In my opinion, this is a goal that is in line with their strength. We must be more careful in this game!”

In his tone, he regarded Trapani as a huge stumbling block to the league championship, but he later expressed the team's confidence and then defeated Juventus. He said that Roma has the ability to defeat Trapani. Pani, the key is that the team needs to stay focused.

Totti, the flag of Rome, is as cautious as Capello. After arriving at the Colleini Hotel, he accepted an interview with Trapani's local TV station "Exceptional" and said that Trapani is not that easy to deal with.

"Now while waiting for Milan to make a wrong move, we need to win all our games. The Champions League will definitely involve some of Ancelotti's team's energy and we are ready to take advantage of that!"

“I’ve been very impressed with Trapani’s performance so far this season. They’ve only lost one game recently and we really have to be vigilant in this game! Beat Juventus 4-0 It’s a wonderful thing, I hope we can continue the same form against Juventus, we are confident of winning!”

Unlike other coaches, Hugo dares to express his thoughts to the players. For this game, Hugo's goal is arbitrary. It doesn't matter if he can get one point, but three points is even better. , zero points doesn’t matter.

The score of this game was not in his plan. He told his players without hesitation, "They are definitely a strong team, and they will definitely not be easy to deal with. You may feel a lot of pressure." , But now I tell you, there is no need for any pressure in this game. I have no requirements for this game. Even if there are requirements, I just hope that we can play with our own characteristics!"

This kind of conversation was not said in the locker room before the game, but was brought up early. According to the plan mentioned by Hugo and everyone before, we must ensure three points when facing weak teams in the league, and try our best to win against mid-range teams. Three points, against a strong team like Roma, you can get it, it doesn't matter how many points you can get.

So in summary, during this preparation period, Trapani's players have relaxed a lot mentally. In addition, the recent record is indeed good, everyone is in a better mood, and the training atmosphere is very relaxed. The players were interviewed I feel more confident and confident now.

In an interview with the German media "Bild", Klose said that the team's current atmosphere is very good and it is definitely capable of causing trouble for Roma.

Miku also said in an interview with "Corriere dello Sport" that we are ready and we will give Roma a little color at the Barbera Stadium.

On the day of the game, there was still no tense atmosphere in the locker room. Hugo had already said clearly what needed to be said and arranged. The players in the locker room were laughing and ready to go out. When it was time to go out, Hugo talked to them. Everyone shook hands and left the locker room.

Compared with Trapani's ease, the whole Roma team in the visiting team's locker room was very tense. They needed these three points so much. In fact, every coach is no different from Hugo. He has a steelyard in his heart, which game. We should go all out to win, and we have a clear idea of ​​which game we can lower our goals slightly. The game against Trapani is a must-win game for Capello, counting on Lecce in the relegation zone. It is simply unimaginable to stop Milan at the San Siro Stadium. If Roma wants to retain the suspense of the championship, they must not fall behind.

Even though he was repeating his thoughts, Capello still used the little time before the game to make arrangements for the players, not daring to relax at all.

From a fair point of view, Capello is truly a famous teacher. Roma's current lineup is actually very bad. The only one that can succeed is a superstar like Totti, Cassano, etc. The reputation is greater than the strength. Compared with the top three in the north, Roma's lineup is undoubtedly much worse. Capello's ability to bring this team to the point where it can bite Milan is considered the limit.

Roma has a 442 formation, goalkeeper: Pellizzoli

Defender: Zebina Samuel Delas Panucci

Midfielder: Tomasi Emerson da Cutlima

Forward: Totti Cassano

Last summer, Roma introduced Romanian center back Chivu from Ajax and recalled Brazilian Mancini from Venice. These two players are Roma's main players this season and have participated in many games. Good results are inseparable from these two people, but they were both unable to play in this game due to physical reasons, and Candela was also absent.

Trapani's injury situation has improved during this period. Except for Ribery who needs to rest due to an ankle injury, everyone else is here.

Trapani deployed a regular 352 formation during the game.

Goalkeeper: Kameni

Defender: Barzagli Victor Peluso

Midfielder: Macho Mascherano Pizarro Micuevra

Forward: Toni Klose

After the game started, Roma seemed very cautious, and Trapani was not very anxious. Trapani's formation was a little backward. At the beginning, Trapani still showed that he was afraid of Roma's ability. After controlling the ball, Roma was not in a hurry to attack, and slowly passed the ball on the field. This is their habit. Not losing the ball is the most important thing. The team needs a little time to get used to Trapani's rhythm, and the players also need a little time to adapt to the game.

As a result, Roma occupied the ball in the first ten minutes, but Trapani was in a better position in defense. Neither side was able to create any opportunities, and there was no shot!

Totti and Cassano certainly have the ability, but their strengths are excellent technical ability and good ball control ability, but when it comes to breaking through, they are not top masters. There are few passing routes for them after breaking through. Trapani's players are also better in positioning, and they can hardly pose any threat.

Of course, for players like them, as long as there are two or three opportunities in a game, it is enough to kill the game, so everyone does not seem to be very anxious.

Mascherano's main task today is to follow Totti. Totti is taller than him, but not as fast as Mascherano. In the 6th minute, Totti took the ball and wanted to get rid of Mascherano, but Mascherano was quick to intercept the ball. When it comes to turning, Mascherano is really not afraid of anyone.

Hugo unscrewed a bottle of water on the side of the court and drank a few gulps. In terms of his strategic arrangement for this game, the first stage was to strictly prevent Roma's opening attack, and then gradually exert force in the second stage.

Who would have thought that the Roma team was actually very patient and maintained considerable patience for this game that was determined to win. They were not slow or fast. They were worthy of being the team led by Capello, and stability overwhelmed everything.

After drinking the water, Hugo walked to the sidelines and shouted loudly: "Control the ball! Don't be led by them by the nose!"

This means that the players should control the ball and start to escape the passive defensive posture, and create some trouble for Roma.

The players quickly understood what he meant. Miku and Pizarro, the midfielder, began to consciously control the ball at their feet instead of rushing to pass the ball forward. Evra and Maggio on the wings also began to consciously move forward to find a gap for passing the ball.

Capello's 442 is a parallel position, which gives people the impression that the offense and defense are relatively balanced, but Roma's personnel composition today is not balanced in offense and defense. Neither Tommasi nor Lima contributed much in offense.

Lima is old. He still plays as a semi-main player in Roma this season and has played in many games, but he is no longer as sharp as before. Tomasi is not Capello's main player and has been a substitute for a long time. Originally, Tomasi's position was Mancini's position, but he could not replace Mancini's role. Tomasi put more energy on defense. Perhaps this is also Capello's intention. In recent games, Trapani has shown the characteristics of being active on the wing. The two wingers are very active. People think that the technically strong middle link is Trapani's secondary offensive means.

However, considering Trapani's two double center forwards, it is not so difficult to understand why Trapani focuses more on the wing. Toni is a strong and powerful center forward, and Klose is an opportunity-grabbing center forward. The two types are different, but the pressure they put on the opponent in the penalty area is very high. No team's defense in the Serie A league can guarantee that it can limit the combination of Toni and Klose in the penalty area, so they must find a way to limit Trapani's wing. Capello must have considered this aspect as well.
