Not bad two finals for a football movement that is considered to be in crisis, in difficulty and of very low level. A thought that expands and becomes even more significant if you consider that last year there were even three finalists, with Inter in the Champions League. It would really be very simple to make this reasoning after the three days of semi-finals. Atalanta and Fiorentina they won the last act of the Europa League and Conference League respectively. And the result is one that must be analyzed in detail and specifically.
The hunchbacked shot was undoubtedly that of the Orobic team, who played the perfect match, outclassing Marseille in every way. Paradoxically, the 3-0 is also too narrow. The final achieved is the reward for the progress made by Gasperini’s men in all these years. The Nerazzurri have created and built, piece by piece, a truly European mentality, becoming increasingly suited, primarily in terms of pace, to the international stage. AND the match against Leverkusen it promises to be gripping, exciting and spectacular. It’s difficult to make a prediction, although, it must be said, fate seems to be on the Germans’ side this year.
What can you say about Fiorentina? The Viola, with their second consecutive final, demonstrate that they have found it their perfect size. A dimension perhaps not of the highest level, but which can lead to great and important satisfaction. On the other hand, for Tuscans, lifting a trophy is a joy that has been missing for too long. The men of Italiano have the character, the desire, the determination and the right quality to succeed in the icing on the cake. Of course, Olympiacos is not an obstacle to be underestimated, also given the way in which they eliminated Aston Villa.
But so How much are these two endings worth? So much so, if we focus on the progress made and the ranking, which could even lead to six teams in the next Champions League (let all the Atalanta fans pray). Not much, if you are cynical and think that, in the end, only who wins matters. In reality, however, something has been confirmed, once again: in preparing for single matches, from a tactical and attitude point of view, we remain the best. Xabi Alonso knows this well, and he really trembled. But then, as mentioned, fate also counts… Maybe too much…
