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

Chapter 110: Huge mistake, Italian referee has a task

Chapter 110: Huge mistake, Italian referee has a task
Rijkaard was furious at the time.

The two head coaches even had an altercation.

The referee came over again to help both sides calm down.

Rijkaard then began to fight for his life.

Kluivert replaced Saviola, who had a mediocre performance today.

Originally he wanted to use Saviola's flexibility to open up the situation, but today the team actually needed a fulcrum center.

Kluivert and Rijkaard had already fallen out, and neither showed a good attitude towards the Black Swan before going on the pitch.

In addition, Barcelona also replaced Xavi with Luis Enrique.

Enrique has a wide running range, good physical fitness and fierce defense. He can improve the hardness of Barcelona's midfield and help the team regain the midfield.

In the future, this player will coach Barcelona, the Spanish national team, and Paris Saint-Germain, and will be known as the "Two Generals of Enha" in the football coaching industry together with Ten Hag.

However, He Tianqi also adjusted the team's position.

Toure plays as left midfielder.

Arteta moved to the left forward position.

Ribery went to the right forward position to avoid Puyol's strong defense.

This season, Ribery has been playing on the left, and many people think he is a left-wing player. But as a two-legged monster, he can also play on the right, and he has always played on the right.

As both sides adjusted, Barcelona regained some advantages in the midfield.

In the 77th minute, Ronaldinho caused Chiellini to foul and then took the free kick himself.

when!
The football hit the crossbar and bounced out.

Barcelona lacked a bit of luck.

In the 79th minute, Ronaldinho cut inside, shook off Zacardo and made a horizontal pass.

Enrique made a run in and shot but the ball went wide.

If it were Motta, this kick would be more reliable.

As Enrique said, it is okay to ruin other people's things, but it is not okay to make your own things happen.

In the 82nd minute, Ronaldinho defeated Zaccardo and sent a cross ball. Kluivert and Vidic competed fiercely for the header and completed the goal.

However, the referee whistled for an offensive foul on Kluivert.

He Tianqi replaced Zaccardo with Valencia.

Because Zaccardo has run out of power.

In this game, he focused almost all his energy on Ronaldinho, restricting him very well, but it was also extremely exhausting.

However, Zaccardo is also experienced and deliberately delayed time and left the field slowly.

This caused boos at the Camp Nou.

In the 85th minute, Barcelona held the ball and looked for attacking opportunities.

He Tianqi was acutely aware that his team's defensive formation had collapsed, and he immediately yelled at the players: "Go forward! Toure! Modric! Push forward!"

"Stand firm in formation! Forwards, press!"

Under the command of He Tianqi, Palermo's defensive formation was rescued and a wave of pressing was launched.

This move was exactly what Rijkaard wanted.

He signaled the team to pass back, pull Palermo out, and then launch an attack.

Both teams are right and have their own tactical systems and logical support.

At this time, it all depends on the players' performance.

Under pressure, Enrique passed the ball back to the goalkeeper early.

Arteta rushed towards Valdes.

After Valdes stopped the ball, he waved his hands, signaling his two full-back teammates to prepare to press forward.

Then he took a look at the situation in front and found that there was a large gap on Quaresma's side, so he changed his original idea of passing the ball to his teammate Oglair on the left, switched the ball to his right foot, flicked the ball, and kicked it!

boom!
Arteta, who had been trying to interfere with the goalkeeper all the way, flew to block the ball, jumped up and touched the football with his back.

Valdez changed the direction of the pass, giving Arteta time. And he was focused on the front court and didn't see that Arteta might block his passing route.

The main thing is that I didn't expect Arteta not to dodge.

Don't want to die?
The football hit Arteta's back, changed its direction, bounced to the ground, and flew towards the top of the penalty area.

Modric rushed towards the ball.

Valdes immediately pushed Arteta away with his backhand and used the force to rush towards the football.

Arteta, who was already suffocated by the football, fell to the ground.

But the referee didn't blow the whistle because...

boom!
Modric, who was running towards the football, raised his right foot and made a lob shot without stopping. The football bounced back as soon as it came over.

Otherwise, if he stopped the ball and then shot, Oleger next to him would have a chance to block it.

Valdes, who was attacking, immediately stopped and prepared to retreat, but he came out too quickly, stopped too quickly, and his center of gravity moved too quickly.

The turf simply couldn't handle it.

Pfft!
Valdez slipped and fell to the ground.

The despairing thing is that the quality of Modric's lob shot was not high, because the football was bouncing at a very fast speed, and he was afraid that he would use too much force and the ball would go out of bounds.

As for lob shots, if you don't have enough strength, the angle will not be good and the arc will not be enough.

So the football doesn't actually fly very high.

As long as Valdes doesn't fall to the ground, he can just take two or three steps back and reach out.

Therefore, from this perspective, it looks more like Valdes slipped and took the initiative to avoid the football.

Swish!
The football fell into the net.

"GOAL! GOAL! GOAL!"

"Modric scored with a lob!"

"Five to zero! Who could have thought that Palermo could beat Barcelona like this!"

"Valdes is in trouble again!"

"If the first goal Barcelona conceded was a huge mistake by Valdes, then this goal was a huge, huge, low-level mistake!"

"He Tianqi is right. Valdes doesn't have the ability to be Barcelona's starting goalkeeper! He is not as good as Reina or Rustu!"

Valdés lay on the ground in despair, even losing the courage to stand up.

But on the other side, Modric, who scored the goal, did not get up because his legs were cramping.

In this game, Modric and Chiellini participated in a lot of assisting defense, almost playing the role of double defensive midfielder.

Although there are no intuitive defensive statistics, Ronaldinho did not score any goals or make any assists, and Modric also contributed to this.

After a simple stretch by his teammates, He Tianqi replaced Modric with Guardiola.

At Camp Nou, people should, in theory, give applause to former "legend" like Guardiola.

But the team played so badly in this game, how could they be magnanimous enough to applaud the opposing players?

So when Guardiola came on the pitch, the scene was particularly bleak.

This made Guagua a little dissatisfied.

As we all know, Guagua is a stingy person.

This may become a breaking point between him and Barcelona in the future.

As the final moments approached, Ronaldinho began to get impatient.

The more desperate a super giant like him is, the stronger he becomes.

In the 88th minute, Ronaldinho dribbled past Guardiola in a completely unreasonable manner, and then was brought down by Chiellini with a yellow card.

In the 91st minute, Ronaldinho again created a dangerous situation by dribbling horizontally outside the penalty area.

At the critical moment, Arteta made a side tackle to destroy the ball and also knocked down Ronaldinho.

The referee showed Arteta a yellow card, and Arteta was sent off with two yellow cards turning into one red card.

"Oh! Arteta's defense is a bit too rough and simple."

"There were about three or four minutes left in the game and he would put Palermo in a passive position."

"Although it is difficult to score two goals in a row, this is Camp Nou, here is Ronaldinho, eleven against ten, everything is possible!"

"If Palermo is eventually reversed, Arteta will be the biggest sinner!"

There were boos in the Camp Nou stadium, and some Barcelona fans even insulted Arteta.

Arteta felt sad.

clap clap clap!
There was applause from the sidelines.

Arteta looked up in surprise, and then saw He Tianqi raised his hands above his head, signaling the few expeditionary forces of Palermo to applaud Arteta.

Then old Kami, Modric, Eduardo, Zacardo, Ashley Young, Foster, Pedro and others applauded.

Wow!
The sparse applause did not cause any waves in the huge Camp Nou stadium and seemed like a joke in front of 80,000 Barcelona fans.

But at this moment, Arteta burst into tears.

This kind of support and companionship, this kind of understanding and non-blame, perhaps this is the true warmth of home?
If you work hard for this kind of team, you will never be let down!

Tens of seconds later.

There was a thunderous cheer at the Camp Nou stadium, which was much louder than any other time Palermo scored a goal in this game.

Because this time, Barcelona scored!
No one expected that Ronaldinho would take a tactical free kick in this situation.

Cross pass to Quaresma on the right.

The latter volleyed the ball with the outside of his foot and it went straight into the blind corner of the goal!
Handanovic is out of reach.

Five to one!

Barcelona scored a goal.

The total score between the two sides was six to five.

Everything seems to have a chance.

Instead of celebrating, the Barcelona players tried to rush into the goal to pick up the ball.

Barzagli had a direct conflict with Enrique who was picking up the ball, and the two men collided head to head.

But Barcelona didn't dare to waste time and could only admit defeat.

He Tianqi also came to the sidelines, feeling a little nervous.

In the 94th minute, there should be more than a minute of stoppage time left.

Barca have the ball.

Palermo wants to retreat.

"Press forward! Don't let them cross half court! Don't give them the chance to organize an attack!" He Tianqi gave tactical instructions.

Playing against a team like Barcelona and a player like Ronaldinho, giving him a chance is equivalent to letting him create a miracle.

The closer it gets to the final moment, the more pressure we should put on them in the frontcourt and midfield.

Palermo's midfielders and forwards rushed out immediately.

Barca were forced to pass back.

Guardiola was full of energy and kept chasing the ball all the way, finally coming to Valdes.

Faced with Guardiola's interception, Valdes did not continue to be aggressive and decisively passed the ball to Puyol on the other side.

But maybe I was too nervous.

I really don't want any accidents to happen.

This time, Valdes's pass back was very weak.

He wants Puyol to be very comfortable receiving the ball.

Because you pass the ball too fast and too hard, it is difficult for your teammates to stop the ball, and then the opponent may take advantage of the opportunity.

But the consequence of spreading too little is...

Ribery suddenly accelerated, jumped out from behind Puyol, and took over the ball before Puyol.

boom!
Ribery took the shot.

Valdés made a quick save, seemingly making up for his mistake.

But the next moment, Guardiola, who had traveled thousands of miles, raised his leg, stopped the ball, and made a supplementary shot in one go.

"GOAL!"

"Guardiola! So dramatic! Guardiola also scored a goal!"

"Barcelona's former meritorious captain personally killed the team he once loved!"

"If the Barcelona fans had given him some applause when he came on the pitch, he wouldn't have been so angry and pressed so hard after he came on the pitch and won this chance for a rebound!"

"He Tianqi's substitutions were like magic. Palermo had three substitutes and two scored goals!"

"Valdes made another fatal mistake! This player has a huge problem! Really a huge problem!"

"Six to one! Palermo created a Camp Nou miracle! They successfully reversed Barcelona and advanced to the UEFA Cup final!"

After scoring the goal, Guardiola raised his hands to celebrate.

He wouldn't have done that.

But at this moment, Barcelona fans deserve such a celebration.

One minute later, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.

Palermo players rushed into the field and celebrated wildly.

Arteta also rushed out of the player tunnel without any regrets.

And the football wizard Ronaldinho couldn't understand why the team lost so badly today.

Because from the actual feeling of the game, he really didn't think the score should be six to one.

Two to one is about right.

Because Barcelona's performance was not bad.

Really!

……

"Miracle at Camp Nou! Palermo slaughtered Barcelona 6-1 and entered the UEFA Cup final!"

"Barcelona is facing a complete loss in all four major titles, while Palermo is competing for the championship on three fronts!"

"Valdes became the key player in Palermo's comeback against Barcelona. How much did he receive from He Tianqi?"

"Valdes ruined a great situation and should be exiled! Arteta, Guardiola and other former Barcelona players scored and should not be let go!"

"Six Palermo players scored, multiple goals! Barcelona Ronaldinho shrugged, unable to carry the team alone!"

《For the first time, an Italian B team reaches the UEFA Cup final! 》

Crazy!
The story that happened at Camp Nou on that night will be remembered forever. After the game, He Tianqi said excitedly: "This victory was hard-won. We made a lot of preparations for it... Yes, from hiding the news of Ribery's return from injury to the restrictions we put on Ronaldinho on the court."

"Ronaldinho is undoubtedly one of the best players in the world today and I am proud of my players for beating such a top player."

"Valdes? After a night like this, I don't want to talk about him any more because it would only hurt him."

"That's all about my comments about Valdes. All I did was for this match and he wasn't as bad as I said before. He had a lot of positives in this match."

He Tianqi did not make any additional critical hits on Valdes.

Valdez has had it bad enough.

He was only twenty-two years old and shouldn't have been pushed into the abyss so early.

But in turn, He Tianqi did not give Barcelona face. He said: "Here, on behalf of children all over the world, I want to say thank you to Barcelona."

"Because Barcelona used this special score to wish all young people around the world a happy Children's Day!"

The media in Catalonia was almost angry to the point of vomiting blood.

Because of this, Barcelona resolutely refuses to acknowledge He Tianqi's tactical attainments and command abilities.

They are also unwilling to acknowledge Ribery's key role, because that would be tantamount to acknowledging He Tianqi's tactics.

Ribery is the main means for He Tianqi to counterattack Barcelona this time.

Of course, Barcelona cannot admit the impact that height has on the team.

But Barcelona can't remain silent, they have to say something.

On the one hand, someone has to take the blame.

On the other hand, someone has to divert attention.

And Valdés was the one who was blamed.

However, considering Valdés's war criminal performance in this game, it cannot be said that he is to blame.

Belongs to...seek benevolence and you will get benevolence.

Rijkaard: "As Ronaldinho said in his post-match interview, we didn't play badly in this game. All our statistics are almost the same as Palermo, except for the goals."

"But the reason the scoreline was so bad was because our goalkeeper made three big mistakes."

"If we hadn't conceded these three goals, with a score of 1-3, we would still have advanced."

"In addition, if we subtract the goals scored by Guardiola and Arteta, a score of 1-1 might be the real result of this game."

"Everyone knows Guardiola, he is a very good player."

"Arteta, as a former Barcelona youth training product, his performance this season is phenomenal."

"Many fans want him to return to Barcelona, and now I think so too. He will be a key part of Barcelona's challenge for all championships!"

Yes!

In addition to criticizing Valdes, Barcelona also praised Arteta and Guardiola.

Especially Arteta.

This also eased the anger of Barcelona fans to a certain extent.

It is our own children who defeat us... Can you accept it if you think about it this way?
But the consequence of doing this is that Barcelona really has to put the purchase of Arteta on the agenda.

Otherwise the fans will criticize the top management to death!
Soon, Palermo's opponent in the UEFA Cup final was announced.

It is also a La Liga team - Valencia!
It’s not Valencia who came on as a substitute and was invisible throughout the match between Palermo and Barcelona, but the famous Valencia of the Bat Army!
……

[Ding! You led the team to the UEFA Cup final and received the rewards "Matthews Fake Move" and "Precise Steal"]

[Matthews fake move: a star-level skill. Some people think that Matthews fake move is just a bull's tail shake. In fact, the two are not the same, but they are both very useful passing skills. The player's dribbling ability is improved. The player's success rate of passing is improved. The player has a very small chance of knocking down the opponent. ]

【Precision Steal】

[The Camp Nou miracle has greatly inspired Ribery and Vidic, who have been promoted from "top five league level" players to "star-level" players]

!!!

Big upgrade!

There are two more stars.

And this time the system also broke the record for "star-level skills". So generous, are you really going to risk your life to operate it? What about the previous Wang Yi operator? Has he finally been fired?

This [Matthews feint] is quite powerful. It is a must-have for future breakthrough masters and is also Messi's favorite dribbling skill.

The essence of this action is to lower your shoulders toward your supporting foot, giving you the illusion of "bursting" in that direction. Since the ball is behind your other foot, it is difficult for the opponent to steal it, so you have plenty of time to adjust and prepare.

When you are ready, use your supporting foot to push the ball in the opposite direction, and use the foot on the other side to accelerate the ball and create a breakthrough.

This technical move is not difficult, and it doesn't seem to be very deceptive.

But the reason why his fake moves became famous and fooled almost all opponents was that he used open tactics.

This action is telling you that I am going to break through to the left. Will you defend yourself?
You defend? I'll go to the right, and this move will work.

You don't defend? Then I will really take advantage of the situation and beat you more easily.

The difference between football and basketball is that in basketball the attacker with the ball has the advantage, and the party that attacks first in a one-on-one situation can often hit several opponents in a row.

But in football, defenders who don't have the ball have an advantage and it's easier to break through.

Therefore, in football, as long as the defender does not make mistakes, can keep up, and can continue to put pressure on the opponent, the defense will most likely be successful.

This means that when defenders are faced with this binary choice, they will prioritize the more direct and threatening one.

Even coaches require defenders to play conservative defense and do not like gambling defense.

Of course He Tianqi used this skill on Ribery, as he had also been upgraded.

In this way, Ribery currently has two star-level skills, [Third Gear Launch] and [Matthews Fake Move], and the key is that these two skills are very powerful.

Whether using Matthews' fake move can shake off the opponent, allow yourself to take the lead in the breakthrough, or completely get rid of the opponent depends entirely on the explosiveness and speed of the players on both sides.

As for [Precision Steal], of course it goes to Vidic who was promoted to the star team. He deserves it.

On May 8th, Palermo drew 1-1 with AlbinoLeffe.

They made a big rotation.

Because four days later, they will compete for the second championship trophy of the season - the Italian Cup final!
Palermo's opponent is Juventus.

This is a battle of tracing origins, and both sides have no shortage of topics and stories.

But before the game, the most discussed topic was "Where is Lippi?"
Due to the disagreement with the top management and the Grand Slam of club honors, it was revealed two months ago that Lippi would leave Juventus after the end of this season.

But when Juventus was eliminated in the round of 16 of the Champions League, the situation became clear.

Today, Lippi himself finally responded to these questions positively. He said that he would indeed leave Juventus after the end of the season, and his next stop might be the Italian national team.

As the best head coach in Italy at present, of course many people hope that Lippi can lead Italy to achieve a breakthrough in honors.

Some media therefore hope that Juventus can use this Italian Cup to practice Lippi's mission, and say that Lippi's thinking is already on winning glory for Italy. However, He Tianqi is still obsessed with the small issue that Lippi did not allow him to coach Juventus' youth team. The difference in their vision is very obvious.

In response to this, He Tianqi responded through Barbara's column: "Don't talk so nicely. Isn't it because I am about to land in Serie A that he is worried about being defeated by me?"

"I have to say that Lippi is very smart. Rather than being driven away by me, it is better for him to run away now."

"Look at what Juventus has become under his leadership. They are not competitive at all in Serie A this season."

"AC Milan won the championship two rounds in advance, Roma is second, where is Juventus?"

He Tianqi showed everyone what it means to rub salt into the wound.

AC Milan fans gave thumbs up, saying they had a very successful season.

The Juventus side was very excited.

Lippi also accepted an interview with Turin Sports Daily: "I don't need to run away, just like I don't need to prove that I am a successful head coach."

"He Tianqi and I are not coaches of the same level. Competing with him would be an insult to my status."

"When he wins Serie A and the Champions League, he will be able to compare himself with me."

"Coaching the Italian national team is definitely not an escape, it's just because I want to bring new glory to Italy."

He Tianqi immediately retorted: "The current head coach of the Italian team is Trapattoni, and the European Cup is about to start. I don't know what Lippi's intention is in saying these things now."

"If he really wants the best for the Italian team, he shouldn't let this matter be discussed at this time."

"I personally think that these discussions triggered by Lippi will cause some unnecessary thinking for the players of the Italian national team, which will affect their performance on the pitch."

"If Italy does not perform well in this European Cup, Lippi will be no less responsible than Trapattoni!"

He Tianqi's words aroused widespread recognition.

Some media called Lippi's contact with the Italian Football Association "Lippi's curse."

This means that Lippi does not want the Italian team to achieve good results this time.

This made Lippi angry.

It was the Italian Football Association who found him!

How did it become that he influenced others?
The Italian Football Association released this news, perhaps hoping to inspire Trapattoni, or perhaps to stimulate the players' condition. In short, it has nothing to do with Lippi.

But He Tianqi is really good at setting the pace.

Lippi could not refute and could only say: "Italy has used many good players in recent years, and the Italian national team won the first place in the group stage in the qualifiers."

"So Italy's journey to the European Cup will be very smooth and they will definitely win a good place."

"To prove my confidence in the Italian team, I hereby announce that if the Italian team performs poorly in this tournament, I will not accept the appointment as the Italian national coach!"

"I can only use this method to let everyone see that I hope the best for the Italian national team. I hope everyone will not be misled by certain people anymore."

A reporter asked: "What is considered a good result?"

Lippi: "Anyway, there will be no problem in qualifying from the group stage. As for the knockout stage... every game is full of twists and turns, anything can happen, right?"

For a time, the prediction of Italy's performance in the European Cup became a hot topic.

However, the major leagues have not yet ended completely, and Trapattoni has not yet announced the 23-man roster of the Italian team, so it is difficult to predict.

……

May 12th, the day of the Italian Cup final.

Stadio Olimpico, Rome.

Seventy thousand fans gathered.

It is generally believed that this was Lippi's last game as coach of Juventus and the last championship he gave to Juventus.

As for the Juventus team, although they have always had a tradition of not paying attention to the Italian Cup, they still used their entire main lineup this time.

The starting lineup is:
Trezeguet, Piero
Nedved
Pessotto, Maresca, Zambrotta

Bilindli, Illiano, Thuram, Ferrara
Buffon
-

On the bench, there are also main-level players such as Camoranesi, Di Vaio and Tacchinardi.

The lineup is very rich and can deal with various situations on the court.

Palermo's starting lineup was lackluster:

Ribery, Toni, Eduardo

Arteta, Chiellini, Modric

Grosso, Vidic, Barzagli, Zaccardo

Handanovic

Before the game, He Tianqi gave a speech to the players in the locker room: "At the press conference just now, a reporter asked me, Juventus has so many international players, and we have nothing, why do we think we can win this game."

This statement really hurt the Palermo players.

Although there are actually many international players among them, for example, after Vidic joined Palermo, he was selected into their national team because of his excellent performance on the field.

Guardiola was a Spanish international before, but he has retired from the national team long ago.

In addition, although Ribery is the absolute top player in Palermo, he has not been called up to the French team yet.

Because the French team's lineup is so strong that even famous players can't squeeze in, let alone a newcomer like him?
However, there are reports that the French team has noticed Ribery and may try to call him up for some unimportant games next season.

The rest of the players have really never been called up to the adult national team.

But players such as Arteta, Toni, Grosso, Zaccardo and others are also being observed by their respective national teams.

Not far from being called up.

He Tianqi: "I told those reporters that it is precisely because we have nothing that we deserve to win this game."

"We don't need to save our energy for the European Championship."

"On the contrary, this game is likely to be an important step for some of our players to enter the national team."

"So, come on, future international players!"

Palermo players cheered!
On the other side, the situation in Juventus' locker room was not so cheerful.

On the contrary, there was only one focus in their communication, and that was...be safe and don't get hurt!

Players such as Nedved, Trezeguet, Thuram, Piero, Zambrotta and others received calls from their respective national team coaches the night before.

The other side informed them in advance that they were selected for the national team, and some people even knew it earlier.

The main purpose of this call is to ensure their health, as they are all important parts of the national team.

Especially Nedved, he is the absolute core of the Czech team, which is a favorite in this year's European Cup.

If anything happened to him, the Czech team wouldn't have to play.

In a box at a certain stadium, the owners of teams including Juventus, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Roma, Lazio and Palermo were all there.

Zhu Xi from Palermo praised Parrini for his high spirits and was chatting with others about their possibility of becoming the "Little Triple Crown" this season!

The big treble is the Champions League, the league and the cup.

The minor treble is the UEFA Cup, League and Cup.

Regardless of size, it proves the dominance and stability of this team, which is hard to come by.

Zamparini now feels that his investment in the football circle was absolutely the right decision.

However, recruiting He Tianqi is more important than the previous decision.

They have now penetrated directly into the inner circle of Italian football.

A huge profit!
However, Juventus general manager Moggi sneered.

Core circle?

Just you guys?
It’s still very early!
Moratti, the big boss next door, has been around for so many years, but he still hasn't figured it out, right?

Does he think he can win the championship by spending money on buying stars?

Do you think the team can win Serie A if it has the strength?

Don't worry, he will never get it in his lifetime.
