The game continued after a short while. After scoring one goal, Rosenborg had all the momentum. Zachary, Takumi Minamino, Nicki Nielsen, Borek Dockal, and Alexander Söderlund were like predators on the attacking line, launching wave after wave of assaults on Fiorentina's goal. Their attacking football was incredible for the next few minutes.
However, in some magical way, Fiorentina managed to hold on and stopped Rosenborg from gaining anything from their relentless attacking. Balls repeatedly smashed against goal posts while Neto, Fiorentina's keeper, occasionally made incredible saves. Nonetheless, Zachary and co couldn't bag the equalizer no matter how hard they bombarded Fiorentina's goal. It was as if some higher force was working against them.
"Let's introduce three substitutes at once," Coach Johansen said to his assistant after watching for another minute.
