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

Chapter 64: "Soccer Swindler" He Tianqi
"Hey, man, watch my moves."

The linesman heard the noise and looked around but couldn't find anyone.

"Here, I'm here." Modric's face appeared under his crotch, upside down. "Pay attention to the contact between my feet and the football. I hope you can make a high-level penalty."

The linesman nearly had a heart attack.

After making sure the linesman noticed him, Modric stood up and waved to DiDonato.

At this moment, everyone in the audience became nervous.

"Again? The same trick as before?" Simeone was speechless.

Inzaghi: "Even if a trick works, it can't be used every time, right? Juventus are not fools."

Guardiola: "I feel that He Tianqi is a bit obsessed. Although he is good at inventing strange moves, he is obsessed with strange moves and has lost the true meaning of strangeness."

"No matter how many times Modric runs forwards, backwards or attacks suddenly, there is nothing he can do with this corner kick."

Sure enough, Lippi walked to the sidelines immediately and reminded the players to pay attention to Modric.

But until Modric and DiDonato crossed paths, Modric still did not make any move to run back.

Juventus finally felt relieved.

Juventus players personally saw DiDonato walk to the corner flag area before they began to make the final adjustments.

But at the moment they adjusted, DiDonato, who walked to the corner area, did not go around behind the football at all, but directly pulled the ball and passed it to Modric.

Modric passed the ball into the penalty area with the outside of his right foot without stopping.

Vidic jumped up.

He is already taller than Juventus' defense and looks down on everyone else.

boom!
The header went into the net uncontested.

"Damn it! What's going on?"

"How did DiDonato touch the ball without waiting for the referee to blow the whistle?"

“This is absolutely illegal!”

"This is different from the last ball. This..."

"What is the linesman doing? It's such an obvious foul violation! Right under his nose!"

"The referee seemed to think there was something wrong with the ball and he was communicating with the linesman."

"Valid! Oh my God! After communicating with the linesman, the referee indicated that the goal was valid!"

"Four to three! Palermo overtakes Juventus!"

"Incredible!"

"It's being replayed on the big screen... It's Modric! He touched the ball when he left the corner area! From that moment on, the corner kick has been taken! But no one knows!"

"No! The linesman and DiDonato know!"

"Excellent set-piece tactic! Palermo fooled the world again!"

The Palermo players rushed towards He Tianqi excitedly.

They did it!
They are actually ahead of Juventus!
This is the Serie A champion!
This is a team at the Champions League final level!

At this moment, the outside world thinks how magical Palermo is, and Palermo’s players think a hundred times more about how magical He Tianqi is!
Because all four goals scored by Palermo so far were from set-piece tactics by He Tianqi.

Half a month ago, when they were practicing these things hard, no one thought that this kind of thing could change anything.

But at this moment, they witnessed a miracle!
Small tactics have a big impact!
Small team with big achievements!
It seems that Palermo really has a chance to win the Italian Cup!

Modric proudly shouted to Juventus fans: "Pele is the king of football, He Tianqi is a football liar! He is the best football tactician in the world!"

He Tianqi: ...

As Palermo players rushed towards He Tianqi, the outside world more or less reacted.

"Once it was a coincidence, twice it was a flash of inspiration from the players, but four times in a row, it can only be attributed to the coach's tactics!" Huang Jianxiang's eyes filled with tears, "He Tianqi used his set-piece tactics and taught the whole world a lesson!"

"Before last year's World Cup, He Tianqi was invited by Italian TV to comment on Chinese football."

"He suggested that the Chinese team should focus on set pieces, believing that this was the only way for the Chinese team to score goals in the World Cup." "As a result, he was abused by countless Chinese people."

"Everyone thinks set-piece tactics are useless, a gimmick, and a crooked way of doing things."

“But now, who dares to say that set pieces don’t work?”

"Whether Palermo can beat Juventus in the end, He Tianqi has already won!"

"He showed the whole world the flash of tactics!"

"He is a true master of set-piece tactics!"

On the field, He Tianqi, who was surrounded by his teammates, did not let the lead go to his head, but quickly arranged tactics: "They are preparing to make a substitution, and I will make a substitution as well."

"Everyone's next task is to defend and park the bus in front of the penalty area."

"But players in the midfield and frontcourt should pay attention. In the first three minutes after the game starts, retreat to defend. In the fourth and fifth minutes, look for opportunities to surround and rob them."

"If you grab it, just attack once."

"After five minutes, come back and hide. This is the only offensive we will take other than counterattacks."

"have you understood?"

Because once the five minutes were up, the farmer's three-punch refill was over.

The players nodded.

Afterwards, both sides began to substitute players.

Juventus replaced the physically exhausted Salas with star player Trezeguet.

The short defender Ferrara was replaced with the versatile backcourt player Bilindley.

The aging Conte was replaced by the wild boar Davis.

Three counterpoint substitutions.

This shows that Juventus still believes in their abilities and thinks they can catch up if they play well, without having to risk their lives in such an inelegant way as adding an extra striker.

For Palermo, Quagliarella replaced Filippo.

Replaced Lucarelli with Ashley Young.

It is also a positional substitution, all due to physical reasons.

Next, Juventus took a lot of initiative.

In the 71st minute, Oliveira made a straight pass from the left.

Trezeguet caught up with the ball on the left side of the penalty area and shot directly with his left foot without any adjustment.

when!
The football hit the post and bounced off.

A wake-up call for Palermo.

He Tianqi raised his eyebrows.

Trezeguet is indeed one of the hottest strikers in European football in recent years.

If he had been on the field all the time, Palermo's defense would probably collapse except for Vidic.

The kicking ability is too strong.

Add to that Piero and Nedved, and you have full coverage from near, far, and midfield, and you can break down any defense.

If this were the Champions League, Palermo would have no chance of winning at this stage.

But alas… this is the Italian Cup!
Juventus will never be able to use the lineup of Trezeguet + Piero + Nedved + Zambrotta + Tacchinardi + Camoranesi + Davis.

There was no Champions League last year and they didn't even play these people.

There is also a Champions League final this year, so it is even less likely that they will play.

If there hadn't been a conflict between Lippi and He Tianqi, and Palermo had indeed attracted a lot of traffic this year, Juventus wouldn't even have brought Trezeguet and Davis this time.

But now... Lippi is probably regretting why he didn't bring his ace Piero!
