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

Chapter 63: Deceiving the Whole World (PK Day, Please Read)
Fifty-seventh minute.

DiDonato pulled the ball from the right flank, turned past the opponent and made a cross pass.

Modric volleyed the ball with the outside of his foot without stopping the ball, but the ball went over the crossbar.

Many commentators criticized Modric for being too impatient.

If this ball had been handled carefully, Palermo would definitely have had a better chance of attacking.

But Modric has his reasons.

Once he is intercepted at this position, and the opponent makes another long kick, Palermo will definitely lose the ball.

So you can be aggressive on the side lanes, but you have to be fast in the middle lane.

In the 63rd minute, Ribery burst into the right and ate Pessotto alive.

Although the latter is also known for his speed, he is thirty-three after all.

boom!
Ribery made a low cross.

Eduardo wanted to rush to the front point, but suddenly he felt a pain in his waist, so he slowed down his movement.

It turned out that Ferrara lightly elbowed Eduardo and then cleared the ball out of the baseline. His action was so clean that the referee could not "notice" it at all.

Italy's golden defense line is both civil and military, and extremely stable.

Eduardo complained to the referee, but the referee indicated that he did not see it and the linesman did not see it either.

Of course, if there are more complaints like this, the referee will pay special attention to the players who have been complained about.

"Luca!" He Tianqi shouted to Modric in the corner area, while pointing to DiDonato outside the penalty area.

It seems that the intention is to let DiDonato take the corner kick.

But there was some movement with his other hand as well.

As these actions occurred, Palermo's players, who were originally arranged in a long snake formation, returned to the normal corner kick formation.

"Huh? The position changed? After Palermo's corner kick tactics were cracked by Lippi, they no longer posed a threat and were worse than normal positions because the long snake formation was easily counterattacked. So Palermo gave up..." Huang Jianxiang explained the changes on the field to the fans based on his own understanding.

On the field, Modric nodded, put the ball in the corner, and turned away.

At this time, Filippo suddenly bumped into Juliano who was guarding him: "Hey, stay away from me."

"The prerequisite is that you get out of our restricted area." Juliano did not give in.

"Thuram, pay attention to the big Eastern European guy!" Goalkeeper Chimenti was also communicating with his teammates and arranging the defense line.

They had plenty of time to set up their defense before DiDonato got to the corner.

But just when Juventus players were doing their own thing, Modric suddenly turned around and ran back to the corner area, flicked the ball, and then kicked it across.

In the penalty area, Eduardo, who was still some distance away from the "offense and defense zone", easily got the ball and shot accurately towards the goal!

The Juventus players didn't even have time to react.

"This……"

"GOAL!"

"The ball goes in! Three to three! Palermo equalized the score!"

"Modric deceived the whole world!"

"Eduardo and Modric are in perfect sync and have created a Croatian connection!"

"But was the ball effective? Juventus players are complaining."

"Lippi rushed to the fourth referee emotionally. It seems that they think there is something wrong with this goal. They think the referee did not blow the whistle before Modric took a corner kick."

"But in fact, the referee blew the whistle."

"It was just that He Tianqi's actions on the sidelines made everyone think that Palermo was going to replace DiDonato to take the corner kick, so everyone assumed that after DiDonato came over, the referee blew the whistle again and took the corner kick."

"But in fact, the whistle for Modric's corner kick had already sounded!"

"Sure enough! The referee is very clear about the logic of his penalty. He indicated that the goal was valid!"

At the scene, Palermo fans sang and danced again.

De Rossi looked at the figure of his national youth team captain He Tianqi and said enviously: "This guy is so lucky!"

Cassano said: "Modric is indeed very smart. Although he is weak, he can always steal opportunities!"

Guardiola frowned: "Luck? I'm afraid not?" Simeone nodded: "The gesture He Tianqi made to Modric must have a special meaning."

Inzaghi: "Well, because after he made the gesture, the formation in Palermo's penalty area changed immediately."

Chiesa: "And they started to distract Juventus' defenders. Eduardo immediately left the competition area and stayed in the passing path in advance."

"Including DiDonato, he walked slowly, giving Juventus players the illusion that they still had a lot of time to arrange their defense."

"It all seemed like a well-rehearsed play."

"This is not a sudden inspiration, this is most likely Palermo's regular tactic!"

After the six red and blue people finished analyzing it, they all felt it was outrageous.

Because, is it worth it?
Let the whole team run a corner kick tactic together?
Or is it this very niche corner kick tactic that is only used a few times?

Is the price/performance ratio too low?
The regular coordination tactics between offense and defense are more worthy of the whole team's effort to learn.

But look at the bright red 3-3 on the scoreboard.

Guardiola got it.

value!
No matter how useless a tactic is, as long as it can score a goal, it is definitely worth it.

Because this is football, not basketball.

In a football game, there is a high probability that there will be only one goal.

In a basketball game, there are basically a hundred goals scored.

So when playing basketball, you have to know how to give up, but when playing football, you have to know how to cherish.

"Huh? That's..." Guardiola looked at the sidelines.

The players on the Juventus bench rushed out and, led by Lippi, had a large-scale conflict with Palermo.

Because He Tianqi threw three punches in a row while celebrating on the sidelines!
He had performed similar celebrations in the league before, and said after the game that it was a "farmer's three punches."

Lippi considered this a provocation from He Tianqi.

The Juventus fans in the stadium also booed for this.

"He is provoking the fans, the players, and everyone!" Lippi yelled, "What are you so arrogant about! What kind of champion are you? Are you worthy of showing off in front of me?"

He Tianqi explained to the referee: "I didn't provoke anyone. It's normal to punch the ball to celebrate after scoring a goal."

"We scored three goals. I swung three times. Is that not too much?"

You know what, the referee really thought that what He Tianqi said was correct.

Compared to machine gun fire, throat slitting, ear loudspeakers, silencing, etc., He Tianqi's three punches did not release any hostility.

Therefore, the referee only gave advice and did not issue any cards to either side.

"Let the whole team press Juventus and fight hard." After the argument, He Tianqi pulled Modric and said, "Go boldly within five minutes. If it exceeds five minutes, come back and stabilize."

"We are not the ones who are anxious now."

"If there is another corner kick opportunity, use the No. 18 tactic. Tell DiDonato and Ribery in advance that if it is a corner kick on the left side, look for DiDonato, and if it is on the right side, look for Ribery."

Modric remembered the Pope's edict and immediately conveyed it to Di and Reece after coming on the court.

……

In the 65th minute, Modric made a bold attempt to pass the ball, but it was blocked by Juliano.

Conte received the ball and made a long pass.

Chiellini made a flying tackle and kicked the ball to the goalkeeper, preventing Di Vaio from creating another dangerous situation.

Sicignano kicked the ball out with a big kick.

In the 68th minute, DiDonato successfully attacked Conte and passed the ball directly into the penalty area.

Filippo received the ball, turned around and shot, but was saved by Chimenti.

Another corner kick.

Modric looked at He Tianqi, and the grace of "Father" echoed in his mind.

He walked to the corner area and lowered his head to place the football.
