My name is Colani

Chapter 398: Battle of Rome 2

"This is a great idea. You have to be so good at picking up girls!" Morek whispered to his cousin.

"I can't help it. This is to keep a low profile!" Hugo shrugged, shook hands with the fans, said a few nice words, and then sat down next to Musasha. The two looked at each other and smiled. Everything was self-explanatory.

"How is it? First time to watch a game, right?!"

"This is not my first time, okay?! Trapani went to China last summer, and I went to watch it!" Musasha retorted.

"I mean here!" Hugo laughed.

"It's better here, and the atmosphere feels more enthusiastic!" Musasha knows Italian. She can clearly hear the "hospitality" of Trapani fans to Rome who came from afar!

"Haha, Italy is the country with the most football hooligans! In Sicily, it's even more so!" Hugo said. He criticized the current environment. Various discriminations in Italian football have never stopped during the development of Italian football.

No matter which team they play against, regional discrimination is inevitable. What's wrong with Rome? What's wrong with the capital? They are still discriminated against here. They insult Rome with a double entendre, saying that Rome is a whore. They can't get any good luck in Palermo today, but Chinese fans may not be so fierce.

Sicilians have a stronger sense of identity with the place.

"I hope there will be a wonderful game today!" Miu Shasha sincerely hoped.

"Hehe, you will definitely not be disappointed. Spalletti is a coach who likes to attack, and Deschamps' ability is not bad. Monaco used to like to attack, and he still has a set of offensive skills." Hugo smiled.

Soon Toni and Totti took the hands of the ball boys and led the players of their respective teams onto the court. Toni has been in high spirits recently. Lippi finally recruited Toni to participate in the World Cup qualifiers recently. Hugo couldn't figure out the reason. It is very likely that after Vieri was no longer good, Italy needed a strong center like Toni. Even though Toni's performance was not good last season, it did not affect Lippi's tactical view of him.

Barzagli was also called up. They were the only two players among Trapani's Italian players. Trapani doesn't have too many Italian players.

Totti looked a little depressed. Last season, Roma lost all four major titles. Totti's performance was extremely poor, which was controversial and criticized by the media. Totti even wanted to leave. He really wanted to leave. Everyone can see the current situation in Roma. Without a new boss, the Sensi family is powerless. Totti is not young anymore. He still wants to win honors, but these are not what Roma can give him.

Roma's starting lineup is 4231.

Goalkeeper: Curci

Defenders: Panucci, Kufuor, Zivo, Cufre

Defensive midfielder: Perrotta, De Rossi

Offensive midfielder: Mancini, Totti, Taddei

Forward: Montella

Kuffour and Taddei are both players who have just come to Roma this season. There is no change in other positions. Spalletti's 4231 formation focuses on the offensive line. Roma is not as good as before. Roma had many defensive players during Capello's time, but after that, Roma sold some and retired some, and the overall defensive strength is not as good as before. Spalletti used to coach Udinese. If you think he is a coach who only knows how to attack, you are wrong. Roma's current personnel configuration determines that he must focus more on offense.

The starting lineup of Trapani is 442.

Goalkeeper: Kameni

Defenders: Maicon Barzagli Samuel Jankulovski

Midfielders: Messi Essien Pizarro Ribery

Forwards: Toni Kloser

Vieri and Maggio suffered minor injuries and missed this game due to injuries. Micoud, Quaresma and others were on the bench. Micoud was undoubtedly the biggest victim this season. Deschamps' team did not set up a front midfielder, so Micoud naturally had no stable position. He wanted to leave in the summer, but Deschamps persuaded him to stay. He told Micoud that the team needed him and Trapani would not stick to one tactic. If the players could not adapt to this style of play, Trapani could completely change the formation. This was not set in stone.

Hugo and Trapani's top management also specially invited Miku to dinner and invited Miku to stay. Miku finally changed his mind. In the past two years, Miku was actually Trapani's biggest contributor. He had many assists and goals every season. Hugo remembered Miku's kindness and was particularly reluctant to let Miku leave. He hoped that Miku would retire here. At the dinner table, Hugo even promised Miku a new contract and a salary increase.

Of course, the main reason why Miku changed his mind was that he really couldn't bear to leave this team, especially now that Trapani obviously had the quasi-strength to impact the league. Miku really wanted to get some honors in this team, and Trapani's fans have always loved him very much. In the final analysis, the eyes of the masses are sharp. The reason why Trapani can gain a foothold in Serie A is Miku. The arrival of Miku changed everything in Trapani.

The coach persuaded, the boss persuaded, and the fans retained him. Miku finally stayed. He trained hard as always and even changed his playing style. He used to play in the midfield position under Zeman, not limited to the front midfielder.

In the midfield, Deschamps used Essien again and Mascherano was sent to the bench. Mascherano did not seem very happy. In fact, he felt that he had a better understanding with Pizarro.

But the season is long, and waiting is a must.

With Rossetti's whistle, Trapani's first Serie A game in the 2005-06 season officially began.

Roma was very aggressive in the opening, but their weakness was on the wing. As a winger, Taddei's defense was okay, but Mancini was not. Deschamps had no intention of fearing Roma at all. After the opening, Ribery and Messi were actually equivalent to two wingers, and the formation was actually 424, which was very bold.

The effect was miraculous. Spalletti probably didn't expect Trapani's attack to be so straightforward.

In the 3rd minute, Trapani scored a goal. Perrotta successfully intercepted the ball and tried to pass the ball to Totti who was retreating. As a result, under the pressure of Klose, the pass was wrong and was intercepted by Essien. Essien gave the ball to Pizarro. Pizarro split the wing and had a good grasp of the timing of the pass. Roma's anxious full-back Cufre missed Messi.

After Messi got the ball, he made a sudden stop and broke through, and passed a half-high ball to the Roma penalty area. Toni leaned on Kuffour and volleyed the ball into the goal held by Curci!

In just three minutes, Roma's goal was lost! Trapani had a dream start!

"Bravo!" Hugo stood up from the platform with a smile on his face, holding his hands high. The Barbera Stadium was filled with cheers. No one expected that the goal would be so easy to score. Miu Sasa couldn't help but stand up and applaud Trapani's players.

"Tony is so great! Could it be that he was stimulated by being selected for the national team!" Miu Sasa laughed.

"Ha, you're right! I think Luca was probably excited by being selected for the national team! He's so excited. He'll score ten or eight in this game. Beat Roma hard!" Hugo shouted excitedly.

Miu Sasa didn't know the grudge between Hugo and the Sensi family. Her eyes said it all.

"They are Yankees! It is natural for us Sicilians to beat them!" Hugo did not explain too much and just made up a lie.

What kind of Yankees are Roma! Morek laughed secretly, Roma would not be welcomed in the north!

Toni made his signature celebration move, Messi, the assister, jumped on Toni's shoulders, and Toni ran to the fans on the sidelines with him on his back. Trapani's players also congratulated Toni.

Roma players protested to referee Rossetti because Klose was suspected of fouling when he was counterattacking Perrotta, but Rossetti's understanding was a normal collision, which made Roma players very angry, and Perrotta almost spit saliva on Rossetti's face.
