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

Chapter 138: Five Fingers Mountain suppresses Real Madrid, Italian Cup battle against Roma

Sky Sports: "Perfume is poisonous, drugs are put in the urine! Palermo destroyed the Galacticos 5-0!"

"France Football": "The Palermo Earth Defense War was a great success! He Tianqi led the anti-fan army to kill across the Milky Way!"

Manchester Evening News: "Zidane's eavesdropping could not save the team, He Tianqi was so excited to recite poetry on the spot!"

"Corriere dello Sport": "Post-match celebration gesture caused controversy? He Tianqi slapped Real Madrid in the face!"

"Southwest Football News": "Real Madrid's seven superstars are like Sun Sheng, each of them has extraordinary abilities! He Tianqi's five fingers are like mountains, suppress them one by one!"

Crazy, Palermo is really going crazy this time!

To exaggerate a little, their efforts over the past two and a half years and the five championships they won last year were not as impacted as this 5-0 defeat to Real Madrid.

This is truly standing on the shoulders of giants and giving the giant a loud slap in the face.

The most embarrassing thing for Real Madrid players was that after the game, Palermo players came to them to exchange jerseys.

You beat us 5-0, what other jerseys do you want?
You're almost getting 40 points, and there's nothing I can do to guide you, Shuhao!
Fortunately, Real Madrid's team is basically made up of superstars who have been famous for a long time and have a mature enough mentality. In the end, they were able to save their dignity and exchange jerseys.

If this were Cristiano Ronaldo, he probably wouldn't exchange jerseys with you... You know what, Ronaldo was also watching this game, and he found out that Ribery took the initiative to exchange jerseys with others, which made him very angry!
C. Ronaldo can't? Ronaldo can?

Believe it or not, I will be the first person who pops up when you search for Ronaldo on Baidu Encyclopedia?

Of course, these jerseys were eventually handed over to He Tianqi.

He will find Wang Tao, oh no... he will find the team staff to preserve it as part of the future team culture.

Compared with other media, Barbara's headline skills are obviously much higher.

"Barbara Column": "Maldini helped Palermo create a penalty! The Pink Eagles beat Real Madrid 5-0 to pay tribute to AC Milan!"

Origin, it’s all origin!

Barbara also mixed together Grosso's last penalty and Maldini's career assists in the "Gazzetta dello Sport", and paired it with He Tianqi's speech during the game and his speech celebrating Maldini's 20th anniversary in Serie A some time ago.

It means that Grosso inherited Maldini's spirit and is a great Italian left-back. He created a penalty under Maldini's guidance. Is it equal to Maldini creating a penalty soon?
The tribute was to AC Milan's feat of defeating Real Madrid 1988-1989 in the Champions League semi-finals fifteen years ago in the - season.

That was also Real Madrid's biggest defeat in European competitions so far.

In other words, in this game, Palermo tied history.

After the game, Real Madrid coach Luxemburgo refused to be interviewed.

But Zidane was unconventional and expressed his dissatisfaction with the team's tactical arrangements: "He is definitely a top tactical master. I was sure of this when he was a player."

"If I could, I would have advised Juventus to give him a professional contract so that I would not have suffered this humiliating defeat."

"Palermo completely overpowered us tactically and neither we as players nor as a coach were able to respond well."

"Palermo deserved a win, but this scoreline definitely exceeded everyone's expectations."

"Real Madrid is in the abyss, and we have no choice but to fight for our lives in the second leg."

The reporter then asked Zidane what he overheard from He Tianqi.

"He is motivating his players." Zidane did not say anything specific because He Tianqi's words were not friendly and would cause controversy.

Zidane is still friends with He Tianqi off the court and doesn't want to bring trouble to He Tianqi.

Including his future conflict with Materazzi, he didn't talk about it often, but just kept it in mind.

On the other hand, He Tianqi did not act like a villain at the post-match press conference.

He "just" repeated Luxemburg's words before the game: "We never thought that the outcome of this series could be decided with just one game."

"We just didn't want to lose too badly, but we didn't expect to win big in the end."

"This way we can perhaps spare more energy to think about the next games, such as staying in Serie A."

"Of course, if Real Madrid is unfortunately eliminated by us in the end and stops in the 16th round of the Champions League, no... the 16th round of the Champions League. That may not be a bad thing."

"I know they are in very fierce competition with Barcelona in the league this season. Without the burden of European competition, they may be able to better impact the La Liga championship and go into battle with ease!"

Whatever Luxemburg showed off before the game, He Tianqi showed off after the game.

After all, it's five to zero.

Unless you are from Paris Saint-Germain, you can have fun as much as you want.

As for Real Madrid players, He Tianqi started bragging, saying that they are all phenomenal.

After all, he was given a jersey by Palermo.

Then news came from Spain that Real Madrid executives were considering firing Luxemburg.

This is very sensational news. (Single bet*6)

Because this Brazilian coach has just been in office at Real Madrid for a month.

Real Madrid's top management originally had great support for him and was planning to bring in several players of his choice for him in the summer window.

Some media even speculated that Luxemburg would not be fired even if Real Madrid failed to win any of the four major titles this season.

This kind of patience is very rare among Real Madrid's top management in recent years.

This shows that they are optimistic about Luxembourg.

But He Tianqi used a 5-0 victory to stun the Real Madrid executives.

Someone always needs to calm the fans' anger.

Luxemburg, who was a popular commodity before, could obviously become a sacrifice at any time.

In the end, Real Madrid gave Luxemburg one last chance.

In the second leg, if Real Madrid can reverse Palermo and reach the Champions League final, Luxemburgo will not receive less support.

But if he fails to turn things around, he'll have to go back to Brazil.

Because Real Madrid's record in the Champions League in the past seven years is championship, quarterfinals, championship, semifinals, championship, semifinals, and quarterfinals.

You won three championships in seven years, but now you are eliminated in the round of 16, not to mention such a humiliating situation. How can people accept this?
Of course, if He Tianqi was present, he would have advised the Real Madrid executives.

Because in the next six years, Real Madrid reached the round of 16 in the Champions League.

Luxembourg is not doing too bad.

So before Luxemburg was sacrificed, the person who was temporarily responsible for this defeat was... Gravesen!
That's right, he is the best player of Real Madrid in this game.

Spanish media have repeatedly stated that this player from the low-level Premier League was beaten like a sieve by Palermo, and the Premier League was also discredited.

If you say that Real Madrid lost, the key is indeed Gravesen, but it should be said that he was inefficient.

But the media said that Gravesen was poor at defending and held him responsible for the five goals conceded.

This is obviously nonsense.

They never found the real reason why Real Madrid lost.

This means that Real Madrid has no real way to solve their problems.

Even though they won some games thanks to the superb performance of the frontcourt superstars, they basically made the same mistakes in the games they lost.

In short, for commercial and contractual reasons, Real Madrid can guarantee the appearance rate of these superstars, but it cannot guarantee their results.

It's a simple trade-off.

……

[Ding! You led the team to defeat the powerful Galaxy Battleship and received the rewards "Basic Long Pass" and "Ball Protection and Turn"]

[Ball protection and turn: a player-level skill. Use your body and footwork to protect the ball while turning and facing the defender and the goal.]

[Ding! The big win over Real Madrid made the players excited, Grosso and Ribery were promoted from star players to "first-class players"]

[Ding! Luca Toni permanently acquires the "Stomp Ball Technique"]

He Tianqi does not have any "star-level" skills at hand for the time being, so he will not give Ribery and Grosso any skills.

[Basic long pass] was given to the blank Thiago Silva.

Tony was assigned the skill of [Ball Protection and Turn], which is a skill suitable for a fulcrum center like him.

There is a huge difference in the threat level of an offensive player with his back to the basket and facing the basket.

If you can complete the turn by yourself, it is basically an offensive explosive point.

However, many big centers can hold the ball with their backs to the basket, but they are unable to convert it into facing the basket and can only serve as supporting roles.

On February 27th, the whole world was still immersed in the miracle of Palermo's 5-0 victory over Real Madrid.

The 26th round of Serie A has already kicked off.

Palermo parked the bus for half a rotation and continued to practice the defensive formation.

Ribery, Modric and Toni were replaced in midfield.

Having just fought a great battle with Real Madrid, who can play against Roma again?

In the end, thanks to goals from Ibrahimovic and Cassano, Roma defeated Palermo 2-0.

After all, if Roma had not been eliminated from the Champions League as the last in the group, they would have been able to beat Real Madrid 7-0!

After the game, Roma captain Totti congratulated Palermo and wished them to maintain their advantage in the second leg and eventually advance to the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

"Roma Sports" did not even mention whether Palermo would rotate its players, and was completely cheering for Palermo in the Champions League.

After all, they took three points from Palermo, so we should always say something good about them.

Otherwise, if Palermo gets serious, they might beat Roma 5-0 as well.

Do you really think Real Madrid is not as good as Roma?

"Tuttosport" continued to insinuate that Palermo had no sportsmanship and no courage to challenge strong teams.

Ignoring the fact that Palermo beat Real Madrid despite the whole world looking down on them.

Inter Milan and AC Milan avoided this round of league games and only reported on the Champions League news, without talking about Palermo's rotation issues.

Give the benefactor some face.

March 6th, a week later.

Serie A round 27.

Palermo played against the weak team Livorno.

This is a game in which Palermo has a high probability of winning all three points as long as they make an effort.

But He Tianqi still made half rotations, only letting Modric play for 50 minutes.

Sixty minutes later, even Chiellini and Vidic were withdrawn.

In the end, Palermo lost to their opponent 1-0.

As a result, their ranking in the league plummeted to 13th place.

Because now the points of Serie A from the 20th to the 8th place are very close.

The ranking will change if there are consecutive wins or losses.

Obviously, in the third round and the second leg match against Real Madrid three days later, He Tianqi chose the latter.

Although they theoretically have enough physical strength to deal with these two games.

But He Tianqi still seeks stability.

Hold on, don't wave!
This is Real Madrid after all.

On March 9th, Palermo visited the Bernabéu Stadium.

The second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals has arrived.

Real Madrid fans all arrived at the scene, and the vast expanse of white brought great pressure to Palermo players.

If they hadn't had the proud record of 5-0 to back them up, they would have been lost in this white city before the game even started.

On the Real Madrid side, Elguera received a red card and missed the game.

Considering the height of the players, they activated the once talented central defender Pavon.

The former "Zidane + Pavon" is no longer mentioned by anyone.

Paven also became a substitute in the team.

So Luxemburg's move was quite bold.

In addition, the scapegoat Gravesen lost the chance to start.

Real Madrid substitute midfielder Celades came to the blame position, ready to take over.

As for Palermo, it is still the same team and the same playing style, everything has a familiar feel.

However, Real Madrid had the added advantage of home court, and the superstars' ability to adjust was indeed strong, so they gradually found loopholes in Palermo's defense.

Especially when Zidane and Figo changed positions, they caught the node of Palermo's defensive handover.

In the 28th minute, Beckham scored directly from a free kick, a crescent moon shot, creating another brilliant goal.

In the 41st minute, Zidane and Figo cooperated continuously to break through Palermo's defense, and Figo finally scored from a small angle.

In the second half, the referee's penalty standards changed and Real Madrid won more opportunities.

Ronaldo received a pass from Zidane and scored the penalty himself.

But then he left the field due to injury.

In the 79th minute, Ribery counterattacked and scored a goal alone, ending the suspense of the game.

In the end, Palermo lost to Real Madrid 1-3.

But the advantage in the first leg was too great, and the total score of the two legs was 6-3 to advance to the quarterfinals of the Champions League!

Spain was stunned because Chelsea also eliminated Barcelona.

All the teams in La Liga, which is known as the new world's number one league, were eliminated and none of them made it to the quarterfinals!

But the attitude towards Chelsea and Palermo is completely different.

Chelsea's defeat of Barcelona is an insult to the art of football by money and a step backward for world football.

Palermo's victory over Real Madrid was a counterattack by a grassroots team against a giant, and a manifestation of indomitable fighting spirit.

Chelsea, bad!

Palermo, good!

Of course, the value of Palermo's victory over Real Madrid in this series will continue to rise over the next six years.

Because from then on, they started Real Madrid's journey to be the 16th rounder of the Champions League for six consecutive times.

The Champions League champion, who was at the peak of his career, was turned into an outsider.

This gave AC Milan hope of surpassing Real Madrid in the number of Champions League titles.

2024: Are you sure?

After the game, Handanovic was named the best player of the match.

Because Real Madrid fired 30 shots in this game, even if you parked a bus in the penalty area, it would have been smashed by them.

But Handanovic made sixteen saves, which was already impressive enough.

As for Beckham's free kicks, Ronaldo's penalties and the seamless cooperation between Zidane and Figo, no one could stop them.

If he had blocked any of those shots, his post-match rating would not have been 8.9 but 9.8.

After the game, before Palermo left Madrid, they heard the media report: Luxemburg was fired!

History has changed.

Luxemburg, who was supposed to coach Real Madrid for eleven months, is now gone after just one month.

This is likely to affect Real Madrid's transfer operations in the summer window of 2005.

It is hard to say whether the original Robinho, Baptista, Diogo, Pablo Garcia and others will gather in Real Madrid to strengthen the South American gang.

At the same time, this defeat also made everyone pay attention to Real Madrid's competitive problems.

The consequences of over-stacking frontcourt superstars have begun to emerge.

Some fans asked Florentino to be responsible for Real Madrid's performance.

Florentino's rule will be challenged if he fails to continue to bring heavyweight championships to Real Madrid.

In fact, according to insiders in the Spanish football circle, Calderon is preparing to compete for the position of Zhu Xi in Real Madrid.

He may launch his campaign next year.

Once he takes office, the first season of Galaxy Battleship will come to an end.

After this game, Handanovic was promoted from a top five league-level player to a "star-level" player.

At the same time, He Tianqi once again obtained new items.

[Cheese hole socks: special props. Too tight socks will affect the blood circulation of the calves, causing leg pain in the players later. The risk of sprains and cramps for players is reduced.]

Eleven pairs in total!
Real Madrid's big move!
He Tianqi put ripped socks on the starting ten players except the goalkeeper.

The goalkeeper's energy consumption is not as great as other positions, so similar problems will not arise.

The extra pair was given to Van Persie.

Although his appearances are about the same as Mascherano and less than Carragher, he is a forward player who sprints more and needs this pair of socks more.

Modric: It's a pity that they are not fishnet stockings.

Valencia: I love white silk the most.

Ashley Young: Black stockings are invincible.

Van Persie: Stop fantasizing, we are discussing special equipment, and you are talking about your special taste! Can you get out of here, pervert? You must choose the original shredded pork flavor!
He Tianqi: I understand. After all, we are Dutch, and our European surnames are well-deserved.

…March 13, the 28th round of Serie A.

Palermo vs Udinese.

This is the fourth time they have met this team this season. They reversed the team in the Italian Cup and ended the battle for Italy's top center forward.

But in this game, Palermo was making trouble again.

Toni, Ribery and Vidic were rested.

Udinese did not dare to talk tough this time and was quite low-key before the game.

Then we won the game 2-1.

After the game, he also said that Palermo is a team that can clearly define its goals. There are no points in Serie A that they cannot get, only points they do not want to get.

He Tianqi felt comfortable saying this.

Know who to offend and who not to offend, and remember the lessons.

With this attitude, Udinese will at least be in the top six of Serie A this season.

But the Roma brother, who had previously praised Palermo again and again, was not happy.

Roma Zhu Xi publicly expressed his dissatisfaction, but his words were relatively polite: "The intensity of the last Champions League game was not great. Palermo is fully capable of winning the game against Udinese."

“They shouldn’t be rotated.”

"Now they have suffered four consecutive defeats in the league and their ranking in Serie A continues to fall, which is not good for their relegation."

"We don't want Serie A to lose such a good team."

The reason for this is that Palermo's rotation is for the match against Roma three days later - the first leg of the Italian Cup semi-finals, Palermo VS Roma!

Palermo's move is undoubtedly telling Roma that they will still focus on the Italian Cup this season.

Rome suffered terribly from this.

A season starts in August or September and ends in March of the following year, and basically a choice has to be made.

Many teams are advancing on three or two fronts at this time.

But the competition for the league title is becoming more and more intense and has entered a white-hot stage. If we lose a game at this time, we may not be able to win the championship even if we keep winning in the future.

Arsenal: ???

But in European competitions and domestic cup competitions, we basically reached the quarterfinals and semi-finals.

You want to win three games a week? That's wishful thinking.

Palermo is relatively weak and has a poor lineup, so they have to advance on three fronts.

Roma is slightly inferior to the big four teams in Serie A in terms of strength and lineup, and is currently competing on two fronts.

If Palermo voluntarily gives up the Italian Cup, they can enter the final without affecting the league title.

But Palermo is now fighting hard for the Italian Cup, which is very hurting Roma.

Therefore, Roma's Zhu Xi, head coach and the team's top star Totti all praised Palermo's success in the Champions League and the importance of league relegation.

Trying to change He Tianqi's mind.

As a result, Ibrahimovic, who had been relatively obedient this season, suddenly got carried away.

When Ibrahimovic was interviewed by Corriere dello Sport, he clearly mentioned his outlook for the game: "Palermo? Nothing to worry about!"

"We have already double-teamed them in the league this season, so it won't matter if we double-team them twice more now."

Reporter: "Udinese also defeated Palermo twice in the league, but was eliminated by Palermo in the Italian Cup."

Ibrahimovic: "Don't compare Udinese with Roma, their front trident is not at the same level as Roma's front trident."

"They are dressed in white and green, and we are dressed in pink and orange!"

Reporter: "Do you also play DNF?"

Ibrahimovic: "You asked a good question. I never care about what He Tianqi thinks of me. I don't like to pay attention to these meaningless news. My excellence is beyond his imagination. He can only appreciate low-level players like Mido, and naturally can't understand the greatness of high-level players like me."

"But I will use my performance in the game to make him realize his mistake."

"Zlatan will never accept any disrespect from anyone!"

Reporter: "I didn't ask this question! You asked and answered it yourself, and you still dare to say that you don't care about He Tianqi's evaluation of you? Brother, know yourself, you love it!"

In response to this, He Tianqi announced Palermo's starting lineup one day in advance.

Roman Zhu Xi clenched his fists.

You Swedish idiot, don't you know that when you meet a god, you should stroke his fur?
But through this incident, Roma also knew Ibrahimovic's true character.

He doesn't look like a troublemaker, but he is as arrogant as the Egyptian prince, maybe even more so, because he is too lazy to tell you about his pride.

On March 16, the first leg of the Italian Cup semi-final kicked off.

When the draw was made before, Palermo drew the away game first and the home game second.

So the game was at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.

Both sides have deployed their main forces.

On the Roma side, Ibrahimovic and Cassano are the two forwards, and Totti is the attacking midfielder, forming the "Ikato" trident.

Midfielders Perrotta and De Rossi and right back Panucci are all international players.

In the first few minutes of the game, both sides were very restrained and were testing the strength of their opponents.

It was not until the fifth minute that Eduardo stepped on the ball and fell to the ground while dribbling in the penalty area. The Roma fans burst into laughter, breaking the awkward atmosphere.

Even the referee couldn't help laughing.

Eduardo traded an active dribbling opportunity for a lifetime of introversion.

In the sixth minute, Ribery held the ball and pretended to cut inside to attract firepower, then made a through pass.

Grosso took off from the edge and made a cross.

Tony took the lead and scored with a header.

After all, Italy has a strong center forward, so shouldn't it be easy to defeat the Italian defense?

"GOAL! Palermo staged the Italian national team's connection. Grosso and Toni knew each other's passing and shooting habits and had a tacit understanding."

"Under Toni's leadership, Grosso has obviously had more opportunities to play for the national team."

"If Zambrotta goes to the right, Grosso might even have a chance to start."

In the twelfth minute, Palermo created another threat.

Ribery and Modric passed the ball continuously, and the two cooperated in a small range to break through the Roma defense.

In the end, Ribery's shot from a small angle was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper.

In the 21st minute, Italian golden boy Cassano also put in a highlight performance, dribbling at the top of the arc and then passing the ball back to Totti.

Totti passed the ball without stopping and broke through Palermo's defense.

The tall Ibrahimovic actually made a lob shot when facing the attacking Handanovic, which was so elegant that he didn't look like he was only 1.95 meters tall!
But it's 1.7 meters!

Messi: What do you mean?
Ribery: Could it be that he was talking about me?

One to one!

Ibrahimovic equalized the score for Roma, and his celebration with open arms excited the fans at the scene.

But Cassano, who instigated the attack, curled his lips slightly.

There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, and there is no room for two princes in Rome.

Although Cassano is the official designated prince of the Red Wolves, due to He Tianqi and Juventus Mido, Ibrahimovic has a lot of traffic and is treated very well by the official.

If this continues, the wild prince might take his place!

In the 26th minute, Eduardo created a free kick in the frontcourt.

Modric took a tactical free kick and sent the ball into the penalty area.

Toure got the ball and headed it into the goal.

But it was offside and the call was called off.

In the 33rd minute, Panucci made a cross from the side.

Ibrahimovic's header was saved.

Totti squeezed past Modric who was fighting for the ball and passed it back to the top of the arc.

The handsome young player De Rossi made a long-range shot and scored a goal.

"GOAL! 2-1! Roma scored two goals soon after losing the ball."

"This Red Wolf is very tenacious and is still the most favorable contender for the Serie A championship."

"De Rossi's performance is getting better and better. Whether in Rome or in the national team, he and Cassano will become the best successors to Totti!"

In the 45th minute, Modric made a wonderful pass with the outside of his foot.

Unfortunately, Eduardo was blocked by the Roma defender and ultimately failed to touch the ball, which flew out of the baseline.

The game then entered halftime.

In the second half, He Tianqi assigned Ribery a tough task, asking him to cut inside early and challenge De Rossi, trying to turn the future Roma vice-captain into a sieve.

Because De Rossi at this stage was being trained as a midfield core, everyone believed that he was a player who could bring changes to the team's offense, so Ribery had the potential to outperform him.

In the 56th minute, Roma took the lead in attacking.

Totti made a through pass and Cassano shot in the penalty area.

This shooting method is very demanding on footwork.

Cassano is showing off his skills.

He wanted Ibrahimovic to know that his shooting skills were Roma's strongest.

But Cassano messed it up.

The football hit the crossbar and bounced off.

Ibrahimovic spread his hands, meaning that there was an open space here, so why not pass the ball to him?

Cassano turned a blind eye and did not respond to Ibrahimovic.

In the 64th minute, Ribery tried to attack De Rossi continuously, but De Rossi's defense was too fierce and he was passed after just one pass.

Panucci came over to defend, but Ribery accelerated the ball and broke through.

boom!
Ribery fired a shot from the left side of the penalty area.

The football drew an arc, passed over the legs of the Roma central defender, fell quickly, bounced off the ground, and passed over the goalkeeper.

"GOAL! Ribery equalized the score with an equally wonderful world-class shot!"

“Two to two!”

"Ribery's long-range shot has improved significantly in the past few months. This high-arcing topspin shot with a sharp drop effect is very difficult to save!"

In the 72nd minute, Cassano shook off Chiellini and Barzagli outside the penalty area, found a chance to shoot, and made a powerful shot.

But the space left by the two defenders had already been spotted by Handanovic, who easily caught Cassano's shot.

Ibrahimovic once again shook his head in dissatisfaction.

He thinks Cassano is hopeless.

More lonely than him.

On the sidelines, He Tianqi was not surprised by this situation.

I'm afraid that only Roma fans themselves are unaware of the discord between Cassano and Ibrahimovic.

If Totti hadn't held them back, their locker room would have exploded long ago.

There is no essential difference between Ibrahimovic and Mido. Mido has to leave Roma after less than half a season, so how can Ibrahimovic feel at home?

It’s just that Ibrahimovic was smarter and didn’t conflict with Totti while competing with Cassano.

Only then was he treated as a prince.

In the 79th minute, Ibrahimovic retreated from the penalty area, received the ball, dribbled it and turned to pass Vidic, showing off his talent.

Chiellini stretched his leg to steal the ball, but Ibrahimovic received the ball and changed direction, then Chiellini hooked his calf and successfully created a penalty.

Chiellini is shown a yellow card.

This was an uncontroversial penalty.

Ibrahimovic's footwork won applause, and he was like embroidery in the penalty area.

It was no less impressive than Mido's performance when he turned and shot at the top of the arc against Palermo.

Both are big guys, and both have technical skills that don't match their appearance.

No wonder Serie A has been promoting the showdown between the twin towers this year.

Totti scored the penalty without any suspense.

3-2, Roma takes the lead again!
He Tianqi then replaced Chiellini with Van Persie to play as right winger.

Replaced Zaccardo with Valencia.

424!

Palermo made no secret of their desire to score goals.

The Romans therefore wanted to wait and launch a counterattack.

After all, with Totti, Roma can launch a counterattack no matter what the team configuration is.

Just like in the future teams with Kane will be able to launch counterattacks easily.

In the 85th minute, Valencia rushed down the right and sent a cross.

The Roma defender cleared the ball and Palermo won a corner kick.

Tony headed the ball wide from the ensuing corner kick.

In the 89th minute, Van Persie cut inside without the ball, received a pass from Eduardo on the right side of the penalty area and shot with his left foot.

The quality was very high, but unfortunately there were too many people in the Roma penalty area and they blocked the ball with their bodies.

As the game reached its final moments, Roma fans could no longer contain their excitement and wanted to celebrate.

After all, the team in front of us is the "Earth Defense Team" that eliminated Real Madrid!
In the 91st minute, Ribery broke through and created a corner kick.

Modric took a corner kick.

Ibrahimovic, who has never liked defending, bravely competed for the ball and cleared the ball with a header in order to win the game.

But Ribery shot the ball from the outside.

The ball hit Eduardo's calf in the penalty area and changed its direction, causing the Roma goalkeeper, who had made the correct judgment, to miss the shot.

"GOAL! 3-3! Palermo equalizes with Roma!"

"Ribery shot from outside the box, Eduardo scored passively and completed his second goal!"

"It's over! The game is over. This is a result that neither side can bear!"

Fans and players of both sides may be satisfied with this game.

But the head coach and senior management are having a headache.

Because this means that they will have to fight to the death again.

Roma's league title race, Palermo's league relegation and Champions League will all be affected.

This is a lose-lose game.

Turin Sports Daily gloated over the misfortune, analyzing in detail the troubles that would follow for both sides, and said: "He Tianqi's clever rotation once again encountered obstacles."

"We have said long ago that when the game reaches the end, points are not something you can get just because you want to. There will be many unexpected situations that will interrupt the team's arrangements."

"When unexpected events start to occur, it won't be long before the situation gets completely out of control."

"Palermo is likely to be eliminated from both the Coppa Italia and the Champions League within half a month."

"And because of their previous disrespect for the league, Palermo has lost the chance to reach the top four in Serie A, which means they will not have the chance to continue playing in the Champions League next season."

"Even now that they have dropped to 14th in Serie A, their chances of returning to the fifth or sixth place in the European competition zone are slim."

"This mediocre team lost everything after a huge gamble!"

"When future fans ask Palermo what they won this season, they won't have any trophies or titles, they can only say they beat Real Madrid."

"But Galactico is always Galactico, and Palermo, people will ask, what is that?"

Tuttosport was merciless.

Juventus had a party.

This carnival further fermented after the Champions League draw ceremony held later that day.

The Champions League quarter-final draw has been announced.

Liverpool VS Lyon!

Bayern Munich VS Chelsea!
AC Milan VS Inter Milan!

Palermo VS Juventus!
