We agreed to play football together, and you will be the head coach?

Chapter 53 Yuanshen made great contributions, Palermo went into reverse (asking for monthly tickets)

In comparison, the young De Rossi was too rash in defense and did not choose his position well.

The aging Guardiola is not good at defense and has weak mobility.

Together they equal a defensive midfielder.

Then they would definitely rather play against De Rossi + Guardiola than Emerson.

Sixty-second minute.

Emerson has already stood on the sidelines, ready to come on as a substitute.

However, He Tianqi heard the conversation between Roma's assistant coach and the fourth referee on the sidelines.

The player they wanted to replace was not De Rossi, but Fosse.

We hope to strengthen the midfield through this.

How can you dislike Fosse?

Of course, this is also a brilliant move.

Because Emerson alone can limit Ribery, thus freeing up other Roma players.

Palermo's tactical advantage was brought by Ribery.

After Emerson offset this, wouldn't Roma's game against Palermo be like a piece of cake?
boom!
Fosse passed the ball to Aquilani.

Another midfield organization was completed.

Lucarelli steals the ball.

Aquilani passes the ball back to De Rossi.

However, Modric anticipated the pass, appeared on the passing line and completed the interception.

De Rossi immediately rushed towards Modric.

Modric protected the ball with his right foot and turned around, leaving De Rossi empty-handed.

But Modric, who avoided the pressure, did not stop. Instead, he continued to use his left foot as a fulcrum and continued to rotate the ball with his right foot.

I went through a trainee cycle for two and a half full circles!

There was a huge booing at the scene.

Modric is definitely showing off his skills!
So arrogant!

What is showing off?

Among Ronaldo's pendulum dribble, Ronaldinho's bulltail dribble and Neymar's rainbow dribble, only the last one can be considered a show of skill.

The first two are called magical skills!

The difference lies in whether this technical action has practical value.

Only those skills that have no practical value are called showmanship.

Is it considered showing off when a rich person uses a small goal to do business?

Of course not.

It’s really cool when rich people burn a small target to keep warm!

The essence of showing off is waste!
Modric's compass rotation is not only useless, it even has a negative effect.

Not only did it delay the team's action, but it also gave De Rossi, who had been passed by him, a chance to make up for it!
Tolerable or unbearable!
De Rossi has had enough.

At this moment he lost his mind and rushed towards Modric again.

boom!
Modric flew out.

De Rossi finally came to his senses and shook his head: "No, I didn't use that much force, I was just trying to grab the ball, I didn't..."

But it's no use.

Modric's wails of pain drowned out everything.

Palermo players rushed over quickly.

"Red card! Give him a red card!" He Tianqi jumped up and down on the sidelines, pointing at De Rossi and saying to the fourth referee, "He's not even getting a red card? This is definitely a red card! That's too bad!"

The fourth referee asked He Tianqi to calm down.

Capello came over and said: "Diving! This is definitely a diving! De Rossi should hold back, Modric can't fly that far!"

He Tianqi retorted: "So Modric should just stand there and wait to be hit by De Rossi? Is there anything wrong with him taking protective measures in advance?"

"A foul is a foul! You have to get a card if you deserve one!"

In the end, the referee showed De Rossi a yellow card. As He Tianqi said, whether Modric was as miserable as he showed, De Rossi's action was definitely a foul.

Then two yellow cards turned into one red card and De Rossi was sent off the field.

"Fuck!" Capello kicked the mineral water bottle away.

His plans were all disrupted!
This De Rossi is unlikely to become a great player! The top management still expects him to be the captain?

Absolutely impossible!
Roma then made consecutive substitutions.

Emerson came on as a substitute for right midfielder Fosse.

Defensive midfielder Ivan Tomic replaced the ineffective Nigerian striker Akide.

In this way, Roma became a single striker with Cassano.

The midfielders from left to right are Aquilani, Guardiola, Emerson, Lima and Tomic.

They ensured the number and strength of the midfield and refused to give up the initiative.

Except for Aquilani who is an attacking midfielder, the other four are defensive midfielders.

In the 65th minute, Emerson launched a counterattack after a steal and passed the ball directly to Cassano on the way forward.

Ashley Young made a flying tackle to destroy the ball and knocked down Cassano.

The referee showed Ashley Young the yellow card.

Roma got a free kick in a very good position.

Emerson then took a direct free kick and Vidic jumped high but was hit in the head.

The game was stopped at one point.

The team doctor came on the field to check.

Fortunately, Vidic returned to the court after staying on the sidelines for a while.

In the 74th minute, Aquilani returned to defense and combined with Emerson, successfully intercepted the ball, and ran with the ball.

Unfortunately, Cassano was closely watched this time, and Aquilani had no way to pass the ball, so he could only complete a long-distance shot, which posed no threat at all.

In the stands, the three Lazio heroes once again pointed out the current shortcomings of Roma's lineup.

Chiesa: "There is no need to replace Fosse with Tomic. As the only organizer in the frontcourt of Roma, Fosse still poses a great threat on the offensive end."

Inzaghi: "Yeah. Even with one man less, Roma is not at a disadvantage. Emerson is really strong. On the defensive end, he is almost like two men."

"But then the only one who can dribble forward is Aquilani. Even if Roma gets the ball, they can't launch a quick counterattack."

Simeone: "We need to bring in another Cafu or Totti, but Capello didn't seem to bring them today!"

"Of course, if the score remains like this until the end of the game, Roma will still advance."

"They are more solid defensively now than before."

"I don't know how He Tianqi will adjust. This is the time to test his offensive proficiency."

Sure enough, in the next few minutes, Palermo had the advantage but failed to score and was unable to launch a threatening attack.

In the 79th minute, He Tianqi made a final substitution.

Quagliarella replaced Filippo who could no longer run.

Filippo probably had quite a few bruises on his body today.

In addition to completing the task of supporting DiDonato and Modric very well, he also frequently confronted Stocco and De Rossi.

The mistakes and impulsiveness of the latter two were closely related to Filippo.

After all, matter determines consciousness.

It is because the body is under stress and fatigue that it is more likely to make mistakes and get carried away.

In addition, He Tianqi adjusted Chiellini's position and let him play as left back.

Ashley Young went to the right and played as right midfielder.

Simeone: "This adjustment... 424!"

Inzaghi: "Ribery, Eduardo, Quagliarella, Ashley Young as the four forwards! Modric and DiDonato as the double midfielders."

"No! Lucarelli went up too!"

Chiesa: "This is... 325!"
