Many Roma fans were stunned and lost the ability to think.
In that famous 6:0 game, Roma only conceded two goals in the first half.
Now they have conceded five goals in the first half. This gap is really too big.
Many people are even afraid. If this rhythm continues, how many goals will we concede?
This topic will inevitably become the focus of discussion between fans of both sides during the halftime break.
It's just that Roma fans are discussing "how many more goals can we lose", while Lazio fans are discussing "how many more goals can we score".

In the Lazio dressing room, Klose was hugged and congratulated by every teammate.
His performance as a substitute in the first half was simply miraculous, and it was even more difficult for this performance to appear on a 32-year-old veteran.
Klose didn't even expect that he was in such good condition today. In the first half, he shot four times and scored four goals.
He feels that he is not even himself today...
So he was joking about himself: "I might have been captured by aliens yesterday for research, and now I must be possessed by aliens!"
Chang Sheng came in later and praised Klose's performance.
Then he told the players that they could slow down the pace appropriately in the second half.
Anyway, this score is considered a big victory. The season is long and there is no need to exhaust all your energy in this game, even if it is a derby in Rome.
After all, Lazio still has the task of the Champions League group stage, and there will be the Italian Cup after entering November. These will require the team's energy.
Now that Cavani is injured, there is one less person in the forward rotation. Everyone needs to make more efforts to make up for Cavani's lack, lest the team's overall performance declines due to Cavani's injury and absence.
Therefore, Lazio's strategic focus in the second half was on preserving its strength.

On the other side of Rome there was silence.
This game is something none of them have ever experienced.
Even if there had been a 0:6 match before, this kind of first half was something none of them had ever experienced.
Five goals were poured into the first half, and everyone was stunned.
Even Ranieri was at a loss to do anything about it.
This was not a tactical failure, he did everything he could.
But as soon as the game started, Burdisso was sent off with a red card. Then the game completely entered Lazio's rhythm. And who would have thought that Klose would be in such good condition after coming off the bench?
The most unsolvable thing on the football field is when a certain player breaks out.
This is totally unreasonable.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.
Lazio's pace should have slowed down, so the threat to Roma would naturally be much smaller, and the entire Roma team would have a much easier time.
I believe this is what Rome hopes for.
Although doing so will make the derby atmosphere less intense.
But the actual situation is like this. Chang Sheng's emphasis before the derby is more like a habit, rather than really paying attention to this opponent. For Lazio, the real opponent is in Europe, and they no longer care about Roma.
After all these years, does Chang Sheng still have hatred for Rome?
I'm afraid there isn't much left, but after seeing Roma, he still wants his team to win. It's just a matter of inertia.
Roma should now be grateful that Chang Sheng did not pay too much attention to them, otherwise it would have been possible for them to lose by double digits.
But even so, accidents still happened.
No matter how slow the tempo is, it's impossible for Lazio not to attack.
Just two minutes into the second half, which was the 46th minute of the game, Lazio launched an offensive.
This time Modric split the ball, and then David Silva took the ball and broke through from the wing. When he was approaching the baseline, he put the ball in front of the goal.
This time Klose, who followed up from the middle, didn't shoot directly. He ran past, so he immediately stopped and turned around.
He stretched his legs to hook the football back.
At the same time, both Mexes and De Rossi rushed forward, guarding Klose one after another. They did not want Klose to turn around and shoot.
However, Klose didn't seem to be planning to turn around anymore. He turned around and caught up with the football. He raised his right foot forward as if he was continuing to run, but when he fell down, his heel hit the ball.
Football!
Heel shot!
The football passed between De Rossi and Mexes!
The two of them were caught off guard. No one made any effective defensive moves. They all thought that Klose would either forcefully turn around and shoot. Or he would pass the football back and reorganize the attack.
No one expected that the German striker would directly shoot with a heel!
Goalkeeper Sergio also seemed ill-prepared, and Klose's kick was quite tricky with his heel.
The football went towards the near post.
Sergio is in the process of moving from the near post to the far post. His center of gravity is completely opposite to the direction of the football. Even if he wants to forcefully change his center of gravity, he can't do it even if he turns back and pounces.
.
So his body froze in the middle of the goal, turning his head and watching helplessly as the football pressed against the goal post, rolled into the goal, and did not stop until it hit the side netting.

"This...goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool!!!" Caressa's voice became hoarse this time.
Because this ball is very important and very beautiful!
"Miroslav Klose! His fifth goal in this game! His fifth goal! Five goals in a single game! He became the player with the most goals in a single game in the Rome Derby!" Caressa
Raise your arms and shout.
"Beautiful goal, so beautiful! A perfect back-heeled ball! He has recently played with two Roma center backs and a goalkeeper, which is so superb! The older he gets, the better Klose's skills and awareness at his feet become.
! He is so amazing! At the age of 32, he became the second-highest scorer in World Cup history. At the age of 32, he scored five goals in a Rome derby game!
Including such beautiful heels! He is completely growing in reverse!"
"From the eighth minute to the 46th minute, Klose scored five goals alone. It only took Klose thirty-eight minutes to complete it! This is the fastest five goals in a single game in the five major European leagues.
!The German shocked the whole world! This is Klose! Miroslav Klose! Who can believe that he is already thirty-two years old?"
"When the 32-year-old Klose left Bayern Munich and came to Rome, many people thought that Klose's career had entered the end. He chose Lazio for the same reason as Ballack chose Lazio.
They were all here to hug someone’s lap and become a Champions League champion at the end of his career… But now, Klose has proven what he always said about winning: every one of his players is very useful to the team!”
"Score five goals alone! The last time someone scored five goals in a game in Serie A dates back to 1986, when Roma striker Peruzzo scored five goals in a single game. Now Lazio striker Miroslav Klose has tied this.
Awesome achievement!”
…
Commentators from all over the country were stunned by Klose's divine help. They desperately searched for all kinds of words of praise and put them all on Klose's head.
Only the commentator on Radio Rome remained silent.
When Klose was substituted, he still laughed at him as an "old man".
Now, the old man gave him a hard slap... No, five slaps! Five in total, so hard that his face was swollen.
Klose is indeed old. Thirty-two years old cannot be considered young in any way. But even if he is an old man, he can still completely defeat Roma without any pressure!

When Klose used his heel to score the football into the Roma goal for the fifth time, Chang Sheng, who was standing on the sidelines, put his head in his hands, then turned to face the coaching bench and asked loudly: "Is this true? Is this true?
?”
He was also frightened.
Not only him, but also Lazio's coaching bench and bench had such expressions.
Many people even forget to celebrate.
Because Klose's five-yuan score is really incredible.
This is a derby in Rome!
Their opponents are not some cats or dogs, little-known nobodies.
Klose, however, casually scored five goals in a row!
Only five shots were used to score five goals. So far, the success rate of shots is an astonishing 100%!
Many forwards may not be able to do it in their prime, but Klose did it at the age of 32.
※※※
Klose, who scored five dollars, was also frightened. He didn't even open his arms and ran wildly. After scoring, he just stood there and opened his arms.
His teammates seemed more excited than he was.
They all rushed up and hugged him.
"6:0! Lazio tied their record for the largest score in a Rome derby! Poor Ranieri, poor Roma... But this is the seed they planted with their own hands back then, and they will definitely have to swallow it themselves.
Take this bitter pill..."
Klose's five goals have completely destroyed Roma.
When the Lazio players swarmed in front of their goal to celebrate the goal, they had no reaction, not even an expression of anger.
They are like a group of scarecrows without emotions and expressions, indifferent to all stimulation from the outside world.
The Roma fans in the stands have become silent for a long time.
They had laughed at Klose before and shouted that the "old man" should see the Rome Derby.
What's the result?
Klose asked them with an easy five goals: "Roman Derby? This is the Roman Derby? Ha!"
Roma fans were helpless against Klose's powerful counterattack.
They didn't even dare to think about how they treated Klose before. Those words were just a slap in their own faces now...
Roma, who couldn't stand it anymore, had begun to leave the game early.
Although Roma lost to Lazio in the derby before, they were used to it, but being defeated like this was still beyond their endurance. (To be continued...)
