Chapter 141 The Magical Ball Stealer (Thank you for your tips)
In the second half, Juventus began to try to play in the middle.

In the 51st minute, Mido was fouled and created a free kick in a good position.

Piero took a direct free kick, but it was too high.

Mido thought it would be better to let himself play, as his footwork was also very good.

In the 54th minute, Palermo launched an attack. Toni withdrew and resisted Montero's pass.

Chiellini took a long shot, but it was too high.

He currently does not have a stable long-range shooting ability, but he has the corresponding awareness and only lacks the skills.

In the 58th minute, Mido also retreated to receive the ball, but Vidic came out quickly and confronted Mido from behind, knocking him down.

After Mido stood up, he started arguing with Vidic.

He was very dissatisfied with Palermo's defense: "Are you kicking the ball or the people?"

Barzali rushed over immediately and said, "So what if I kick someone? Do you want to compete?"

Mido was instantly speechless and turned away.

Players from both sides were shocked by the scene.

what's the situation?
Everyone knows that Mido has a bad temper, but why did Mido leave with his tail between his legs as soon as Barzali came?
"This..." Guardiola looked at He Tianqi from the side.

He Tianqi explained: "Last time we played against Juventus in the league, didn't Barzagli and Mido have a fight? If Mido gets beaten unilaterally, it can be called a fight."

"Miduo, this is the character of a child. He is crazy, but if you really give him something, he will still be afraid."

Guardiola seemed to understand: "So Mido is not afraid of others because he knows that others will not really do it. He is afraid of Barzagli because he knows that Barzagli really dares to do it to him?"

He Tianqi nodded.

Brine some tofu, one thing down one thing.

If Juventus knew that Mido had this kind of personality, there would be no need for them to be so tolerant.

Just let Mogi find the Black Hand Gang to beat up Mido, and I guarantee that you will be a well-educated and well-mannered Egyptian Ibrahimovic!

Different players have different habits, and you don't necessarily have to follow them all.

There are also masochists.

In the 63rd minute, Mido retreated again to receive the ball and passed it under his feet, which was very clever.

He turned around and followed, then kicked the ball towards the goal.

But Vidic had learned from previous experience and predicted this situation would happen.

Continuous physical confrontation with Mido prevented him from speeding up, and finally he kicked the ball away.

Piero spread his hands aside, meaning it would be easier to pass the ball to me, so why do you have to show off your skills and do it alone?
Neither partner was satisfied with the other's performance.

But the difference is that Piero's status in the team is not comparable to Mido.

Piero looked at Lippi.

The meaning was obvious, he didn't want to play with this big loner anymore.

Lippi also wants to adjust the forward line. After all, the talented striker Trezeguet, who has just returned from injury, is sitting on the bench.

If he is not given playing time, he will make trouble.

Juventus began to prepare substitutions.

In the 67th minute, Zaccardo made a mistake in saving the ball on the wing.

He touched the ball before it was about to go out of the baseline, and then flew out himself.

As a result, Zambrotta took the ball away, forcing Barzagli to come over to defend.

Zambrotta took the opportunity to pass the ball horizontally.

Nedved took advantage of Chiellini, dribbled the ball two steps and then shot into the goal!
This is his most comfortable starting area.

Swish!
The football stirs up white waves.

"GOAL! 2-1! Nedved reversed the score for Juventus!"

"This is the strength of Mr. Golden Ball!"

"The Czechs are unstoppable! Palermo pissed off Nedved and this is what happened!"

"Perfect world goal! Perfect Nedved!"

Juventus began to celebrate enthusiastically.

There was jubilation at the Alpine Stadium.

This is what Juventus wants.

Palermo???
who are you?

But after the celebration, Mido looked at the sidelines, very surprised.

He looked at his teammates around him, then pointed at himself, meaning, are you sure you want me to be substituted?
Is the number plate wrong?
But the Juventus assistant coach's response was very affirmative, we just want to replace you.

Mido came down angrily, ignoring Trezeguet who was about to high-five him, and Lippi who was about to shake hands with him.

This made Lippi, who was about to say a few nice words to praise him, very angry, so he also put on a cold face and ignored Mido.

After Mido returned to the system, two substitute players who had a good relationship with him were preparing to comfort him.

But he suddenly became angry and kicked the chair three times.

C Ronaldo: ???

This attracted the broadcast screen.

The conflicts within Juventus have been exposed to the public.

On the other side, Palermo also replaced Eduardo with Van Persie.

In the 73rd minute, Ribery cut in from the wing, shook off Camoranesi and dribbled sideways to avoid a head-on confrontation with Cannavaro.

boom!
Ribery made a through ball.

Tony leaned forward while running and made a violent header.

The speed of this ball is not much worse than shooting with your feet.

But Buffon was in great form and saved the ball.

In the 78th minute, Juventus continued to make substitutions.

Pessotto replaced Camoranesi.

The flying wingers Camoranesi and Zambrotta are versatile in offense and defense and are world-class wingers.

Pessotto is far less powerful than the other two and can only play as a substitute, but his advantage is that he focuses more on defense.

2-1, this is a good score. Lippi knows that Palermo is good at turning the tables, so he doesn't want to give Palermo any chance and plays it safe.

Little did people know that this move actually liberated Palermo's left-back Grosso.

Previously, considering Camoranesi's counterattack ability, Grosso has not been able to fly alone on the two wings with Ribery.

But when he really defended, he couldn't do much.

Now, Grosso is ready to take off.

He Tianqi immediately gave instructions to Grosso on the sidelines, asking him to press forward.

In the 81st minute, Ribery passed the ball back to Modric, and then cut inside without the ball.

Grosso took advantage of the situation to move forward on the wing.

Modric passed the ball diagonally to Grosso.

Grosso exploded directly and ate Pessoto raw.

Seeing that he was almost at the baseline, Grosso raised his left foot and made a fake pass, shaking Pessotto out of the baseline.

Then he made a reverse triangle pass to Ribery.

Ribery received the ball, changed direction and passed Thuram directly.

Thuram was defending two people at once and it was impossible to stop them.

But Cannavaro's defense was quick and the two men confronted each other.

Ribery made a series of fake shots while dribbling sideways, but Cannavaro remained unmoved.

Finally, Ribery suddenly raised his foot and pushed the ball back to the left.

Modric comes on!

Shoot the football!
In an instant, many Juventus fans found themselves dazzled.

Midfielder!

Long golden hair!

About 1.7 meters!
A shot from outside the penalty area!
From Eastern Europe!

Wearing a striped jersey, one of the stripes is black!
Yes, he is the world-renowned...

Swish!
An arrow pierces the clouds, and thousands of troops come to meet you!

"Modric! Super world wave!"

"The Croatians almost replicated the goal Nedved just scored!"

"Same position! Same score! At the crucial moment, Palermo stole the ball and Modric stood up!"

"He equalized the score with a world-class shot that was even better than Nedved's!"

"Ribery attracted everyone with his gorgeous dribbling, and the thief took the opportunity to steal Juventus' lead and goal!"

"Perhaps it was Modric's performance at the critical moment that made He Tianqi insist on giving him a chance to start even though no one was optimistic about him!"

"2-2! Palermo refuses to be defeated three times by Juventus this season!"

On the sidelines, Palermo celebrated wildly.

Modric rushed towards He Tianqi, and they all jumped high together, looking up to the sky and crying!

Ashley Young on the bench was even more of an atmosphere expert. When He Tianqi threw three farmer punches, he shouted, "I said Luca! You said cool!"

"Luca!"

"cool!"

"Luca!"

"cool!"

Everyone responded by giving a warm celebration to the captain Modric.

Even Valencia, who had always wanted to replace him, smiled in front of him. This is called social etiquette!

This made the fans watching the game across Europe unable to sit still.

"Fuck! Palermo is good? They didn't lose this game?"

"Are they really not big gift bags?"

"Two games against Manchester United, one win and one draw. We slaughtered Real Madrid and set a record. Now we are in a close fight with Juventus. He Tianqi is good at this!"

"Although Modric was invisible throughout the game, it feels like he can play for another year just based on this goal."

"After all, he is the biggest scoundrel in Palermo. If He Tianqi hadn't been able to have a child at the age of five, everyone would have suspected that Modric was He's illegitimate child."

"This is most likely a tie-breaking goal."

"With two away goals, Palermo might be able to make it to the semi-finals when they return to Sicily!"

"Isn't this too much? I heard they dropped to the relegation zone again. Is Serie A so chaotic?"

"Whether Serie A is in chaos or not, the Pink Eagles have the final say!"

On the pitch, Juventus began to complain that Palermo's celebrations were too long.

The referee accepted the complaint and warned Palermo.

The game then resumed.

But Palermo will definitely defend this draw.

With the bonus of Siu and the farmer's three punches, Palermo was able to hold on for ten minutes.

In the 85th minute, Chiellini brought down Zambrotta and received a yellow card.

He Tianqi immediately replaced Chiellini with Mascherano to ensure the defense's ability to commit fouls.

Juventus' subsequent tactical free kick was cleared by Vidic.

Although Trezeguet is 1.9 meters tall, it seems that his condition has not recovered to his best and he seems to be avoiding confrontation.

This is the fear of being injured again in a short period of time, which is a very common post-injury psychology.

In the 89th minute, regular time is about to end.

Piero retreated to ask for the ball, wanting to turn on superstar mode and take over the game.

However, Nedved had just passed the ball to him when Modric, who had come near him at some point, suddenly jumped out and intercepted the ball.

This guy's presence is so low it's scary!
Piero pulls Modric.

But Modric was never bad in key confrontations. He spread his hands downwards, making Piero's grab fail.

Bruqitan is worthy of its reputation!
Do you really think this action is just a complaint?
This is called arm movement. If you don’t know, take a good look at Di Maria’s skill bar!

Modric caught up with the ball and was ready to make a rocket shot.

But at the same time, Nedved also rushed over and tried to block it with his legs.

He was very aggressive, as if to say, if you dare to pass my kick, I will kick you in the leg.

This directly angered Modric.

Some people are timid just to stay timid.

But some people are timid in order to be brave again in the future.

Modric seems to be a bully who only bullies the weak and fears the strong, but in fact he only responds to soft things and not hard things.

He has taken revenge on those who have hurt him and looked down on him.

Guardiola's coffee was spat on, Ribery's toilet seat was stepped on and made dirty, Barzagli's shoes were stained with dog feces, Chiellini's nude photos in the locker room...all of them were done by him!
But the other party doesn’t know!
Modric will always remember those who are good to him.

He knew who made him appear on the court and made him the core of the team. He knew how much pressure He Tianqi was under, and he knew what He Tianqi wanted to see.

At this moment, he couldn't let his boss down.

Even if his leg was broken by Nedved!

boom!
The football flew out.

Modric looked straight at Nedved, his eyes as ferocious as a hyena on the African savannah.

Nedved retracted his kick. He didn't scare his opponent, even though he looked like a coward.

Of course, the two of them bumped into each other.

In the frontcourt, Cannavaro continuously confronted and suppressed the young Van Persie, allowing the ball to be confiscated by Buffon.

The referee then blew the whistle and called a foul on Nedved.

Nedved was then shown a yellow card.

Nedved had already received a yellow card, so... two yellow cards turned into one red card!
"Oh! Nedved is in trouble. He just knocked down Modric. The Croatian is rolling on the ground in pain. I'm afraid he is seriously injured!"

"Palermo's team doctor is already on the sidelines preparing! He Tianqi asked the team doctor to get a stretcher directly. He is very worried about his beloved disciple!"

"Red card! Two yellow cards turned into one red card. Nedved was sent off with a red card! There is nothing wrong with this penalty!"

"Juventus will have one less player next time!"

"In this way, it is unlikely that Juventus will be able to score another goal and take the lead."

"The two sides are likely to tie 2-2." "But the problem is that Nedved will miss the second leg of the game between the two sides. Will this have any impact on the final result?"

"Nedved is the absolute core of Juventus' midfield!"

"Modric has done a great job! Even if his leg was broken, it was worth it! After all, he was the one who replaced Nedved... Um... He stood up?"

When the referee took out the red card, Modric actually stood up in full view of everyone, performing a medical miracle!
He signaled to his teammates to go to the front court and seize the time.

Next, they are eleven against ten, and every second is an advantage!

Hey, hey, hey!
There was a lot of booing at the Alpine Stadium.

The fans cursed!
They think Modric is an actor.

But in fact, that guy is called the Movie Emperor!
Of course, whether Modric acted or not, there was no problem with Nedved's yellow card. It was a dangerous action + tactical foul.

Palermo kicked off and the game entered overtime.

three minutes.

In the second minute of stoppage time, Palermo surrounded Juventus.

Zacardo moved to the defensive midfielder position and Toure moved forward.

The ball is at Modric's feet.

Lippi asked Trezeguet and Piero to go for the ball on the sidelines, not to give Modric a chance to think, as this guy is very good at passing the ball.

As a result, Modric usually didn't dare to touch the ball and always kicked the ball out. However, he was able to withstand pressure at the critical moment. He pulled the ball to avoid Trezeguet's attempt to steal the ball and broke through with the ball to launch an attack.

boom!
Modric passed the ball to Toure and continued to move forward.

But Trezeguet had enough energy to chase back and catch up with Modric, leaving no chance for Modric to run into open space.

Modric realized he couldn't outrun Trezeguet, so he stopped immediately and put some distance between himself and Trezeguet.

Toure passes the ball back to Modric.

Trezeguet turned around and returned to his defensive position with an impeccable attitude.

If he hadn't felt the impact that Mido had on his main position during his injury, he wouldn't have done such dirty work.

He is the deadly killer who scored the Golden Ball!
The restricted area is his destination!

boom!
After Modric received the ball, he suddenly raised his foot and made a lob pass.

Trezeguet was stunned.

Isn't your pick too low?

It’s hard enough for you to surpass my height of 1.7 meters, how can you imagine surpassing my height of 1.9 meters?

But the next moment, Modric raised the corner of his mouth.

Trezeguet felt a chill in his heart. This was...

"Hands behind your back!" Cannavaro shouted in despair.

But it's too late.

The football hit Trezeguet's arms which were stretched out to maintain his balance after he turned around.

He then looked down and found himself in a restricted area.

The restricted area is his destination!
beep!

With a whistle, the referee pointed to the penalty spot without hesitation.

Then he slapped his arms to indicate Trezeguet had committed handball.

"Penalty! The referee gave a penalty!"

"Oh my god! At this time?"

"This is a fatal penalty for Juventus!"

"Trezeguet didn't have any outstanding performance after he came on the pitch, and ended up giving away a penalty in injury time. This..."

"Lippi really shouldn't have replaced Mido! Compared to Mido, who has excellent footwork, Palermo's defense obviously prefers to defend against a player like Trezeguet who has a heavy sword but no front."

"Vidić is the nemesis of forwards who rely on their bodies and run!"

Juventus players immediately surrounded him and tried to explain.

Trezeguet was so anxious that he cursed: "I didn't do it on purpose. He kicked the ball into my hand. He did it on purpose! He is a thief. He stole a penalty!"

But the referee was unmoved.

There was nothing wrong with Modric's pass.

Even if he did it on purpose, we can only blame Trezeguet for his poor defensive habits.

These days, if the football touches your hand, that’s enough.

There were no more reasonable handball rules later.

Trezeguet was given a yellow card for his protest.

Cannavaro was worried that the team would have no players to play in the next game, so he quickly pulled Trezeguet aside.

Modric did not participate in the argument, as that was the referee's business. He turned to look at He Tianqi first.

He Tianqi quietly made a gesture.

Modric received it.

"Modric walked towards Ribery who was holding the ball. What does this mean? Does he want to take the penalty?"

"That's fine, after all, he made it. And it was a penalty that defeated Juventus. This was the Champions League quarter-final. It's understandable that Modric wanted to be in the spotlight."

"Of course, as the captain, it makes sense for him to bear the pressure of killing the opponent. And Modric is one of Palermo's penalty takers."

"But Ribery is the team's first penalty taker. If he doesn't want to give up the penalty..."

"Oh! Ribery pushed Modric away!"

"What day is today? Juventus is in internal strife, Mido is unhappy about being substituted! As a result, Palermo's number 7 and number 10 are fighting for the spot!"

“Under the huge traffic, have the selfishness of Palermo players finally emerged?”

"It seems that the outside world's doubts have finally affected Modric. He wanted to prove himself, but chose the wrong way!"

The camera turned to He Tianqi on the sidelines.

He looked gloomy and very angry. He threw the tactical board in his hand at Guardiola and sat back on the bench.

On the field, Palermo's teammates pulled Ribery and Modric apart.

In the end, Ribery angrily threw the football to the ground and walked out of the penalty area.

Modric took the penalty kick.

He not only steals the opponent's penalties, he also steals those of his teammates!

What a heartless person!
There were continuous boos at the Stadio Alpi during this period, mocking the disunity within Palermo.

Many fans also left messages online, saying that Palermo's season has come to an end.

The collapse of the locker room is basically a terminal illness for the team. There is no other treatment option except changing blood or changing coaches.

During this period, Buffon was constantly brainstorming.

He was watching Modric, wondering what kind of penalty shot the opponent would take.

After all, Modric had scored a penalty with a left-foot shot against Real Madrid before.

Buffon's lifelong enemy Casillas was defeated.

At the same time, Buffon also has to prevent Modric from taking penalties with a small jump step.

This placed extremely high demands on him.

Modric kept his head down to avoid being seen by Buffon and thus exposing the direction he wanted to attack.

This is an intense psychological game.

With a whistle, Modric rushed straight towards the football at a very fast speed.

Abnormally fast!
No one had time to think.

At this speed, it is impossible to take a small jump step penalty.

Because after jumping up, the person will move forward a lot due to inertia and will definitely fly over the football. How can he still kick the football?

This is a quick shot!
Modric chose the third penalty method, which is also the most common penalty method.

left!

Buffon made the judgment!
He dived to the left side of the goal.

But the next moment, his pupils shrank.

Modric rushed towards the football and pushed it to the left.

Ribery, who had previously had a conflict with Modric, rushed into the penalty area at the first moment and reacted faster than anyone else.

boom!
Ribery made a powerful shot and Buffon in mid-air could only watch the ball go into the net.

Ribery then climbed onto Modric's arm and rushed towards the corner flag area together.

Where is the slightest trace of infighting?

"This...this...the ball goes in!"

"Fake! The internal strife in Palermo is fake!"

"Modric made a penalty kick and Ribery scored! This was a penalty kick tactic! Palermo deceived the whole world!"

"Amazing ball steal! Modric stole Buffon's attention!"

"Two to three! Palermo is leading again! And it's a decisive goal!"

"There's no time left in the game! This is definitely a killer kill!"

"He Tianqi also rushed to the corner flag area! His face was full of smiles. Where was the anger from before? It was all acting! Palermo gave Juventus a big acting lesson!"

"Don't forget, the coach in charge of this team is the FIFA's best coach of the past year! He is a recognized tactical master! He is also the recognized king of set pieces!"

"And a penalty kick is also a type of set piece!"

"He Tianqi can always surprise everyone! He can always bring miracles to football!"

Only Guardiola on the sidelines looked confused.

He was hit on the calf by the tactical board thrown by He Tianqi just now. It hurts so much.

But he thought God was angry, so he didn't dare to complain.

result……

You're acting, tell me, why are you hitting me? It's bruised!
He Tianqi: Otherwise, how could others believe that there was really an internal conflict in our team?

Guardiola: MMP!

In the stands of the Alps Stadium, fans kept cursing, but could not change the score.

The referee gave Juventus some more time.

But He Tianqi actually replaced Modric with Carragher at this time.

He is wasting time.

Modric also received cheers from the audience.

This is Modric's kingly moment.

Modric also understood He Tianqi's arrangement and walked slowly on purpose, as if the penalty pass just now had exhausted all his strength.

Piero was very angry and led Juventus players to surround Modric, and Thuram also pushed Modric.

But the Palermo players pushed back immediately and the situation got completely out of control, with players from both sides pushing and shoving each other, and the atmosphere was full of tension.

The players on the bench immediately rushed over to help the staff to mediate the fight.

He Tianqi also went there and knocked Emerson, who was about to attack Modric from the side, to the ground.

Juventus then calmed down.

Especially the old players who have seen He Tianqi throw Lippi over the shoulder.

Coupled with the Patton incident, Juventus has a very clear understanding of He Tianqi's combat effectiveness.

But new players like Emerson obviously didn't pay much attention to He Tianqi's fighting power before.

Emerson looked like a beast, but he was knocked unconscious by He Tianqi. His teammates were also timid, so the conflict was settled by He Tianqi in just a few moves.

The referee also expressed his gratitude to He Tianqi for his help, and then showed yellow cards to Modric who deliberately delayed time and caused the conflict, Thuram who took the initiative, and Mascherano who did not play much and was busy fighting.

Juventus fans were very dissatisfied with the penalty. They believed that He Tianqi should also receive a card, and it should be a red card!
Finally, when He Tianqi and Modric walked off the field, Juventus fans threw coins, biscuits, French fries and other things.

But the next moment, Guardiola opened a black umbrella and covered He Tianqi and Modric.

He finally understood why He Tianqi brought two umbrellas to this game.

So this is how it is used.

For a moment, in the rain of garbage, He Tianqi and Modric sat back in the coaching seat, as cool as they could be.

Of course, if there is the background music of "Goblin", it will be a sure win!

But after returning to the shed, He Tianqi found a few French fries and some red marks on Guardiola's head.

This place is originally deserted and no hair grows, and now it is even harder for anything to grow.

"Pep, do you know why I brought two umbrellas?" He Tianqi opened the bottle of mineral water and took a sip.

Guardiola shook his head.

"One is used to protect others, and the other is used to protect yourself." He Tianqi was speechless.

The next moment, blood was flowing from Guardiola's head. He covered his head in pain and yelled to the stands: "Who the hell threw a lighter? It's a fake Zippo!"

After saying that, Guardiola fell to the ground.

"Stretcher, stretcher!" The stretcher that He Tianqi had asked the team doctor to prepare was finally used.

He asked the players to carry Guardiola onto a stretcher.

But Ashley Young, who is closest to Guardiola, has taken a step back.

"What? Are you unhappy about his stupidity?" He Tianqi kicked Ashley Yang.

Ashley Young didn't understand and pointed at the ketchup with a pale face.

"Are you afraid of blood?" He Tianqi asked.

Ashley Yang's legs went limp and she sat on the ground: "I fainted from ketchup!"

???

It was busy on the sidelines and busy on the field.

But half a minute later, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.

Two to three!
Juventus lost to Palermo at home!
There were so many classic moments in this game that right after it ended, it made the front page headlines of major media websites and was announced to the world directly in the form of pop-up windows.

Many fans have been following this team since they massacred Real Madrid in Palermo.

And now, seeing Palermo defeat Juventus, a terrible guess emerged in their minds.

Could it be that... He Tianqi is really so shortsighted that he mistakes the Champions League for the Italian Cup?

If Juventus wants to reverse the situation and advance to the next round, the best way is not to ask the coach and players to do this or that, but to ask the doctor to perform femtosecond myopia surgery on He Tianqi!
The more expensive the better, find the best doctor in Europe to perform the surgery!

The reporters at the scene were also extremely excited and rushed into the post-match press conference.

Considering the relationship between He Tianqi, Juventus and Lippi, this press conference might be more exciting than the game!
