Chapter 634 Glorious Glory
The day before the arrival of the 22nd round of the league, the Piacenza team gathered in the team conference room in advance as usual. Under the watchful eyes of the players, Conte began to announce the final squad.

Although sitting at home, Conte did not choose to adopt the tactics that the team used the most in the Leonardo Stadium in the past. He did not think that this group of players who still seemed a bit suffocating could continue to advance the offense.

So, this time, he formed the long-lost 4312 formation for the team.

Four defenders, three defensive midfielders, the meaning revealed by this arrangement could not be more obvious. Conte will use defensive counterattack tactics to play this round of the league.

"The four defenders are Westeri, Biney, Astori, and Caporoso."

The state of Piacenza's defense fell into a collective downturn after the war. Except for Westerli, who was barely qualified, the other three players were put on the bench by Conte. Astori and two newcomers got the chance to play.

"Then, tomorrow the three delayed midfielders will be Ramirez, Raimondi and Nocerino." Conte quickly clicked on the laser pointer in his hand and announced each name: "Your main task is to defend and initiate the team's counterattack."

"Understand the coach!"

"Alberto, your position in tomorrow's game will be the front midfielder. Cassia and Feng will partner with the double striker. The three of you will be the most important roles in the team's counterattack. I hope you will not let me down."

"Know the boss!"

After quickly listing all the starting lineups that he had already thought about, Conte paused for the players: "This is a game at our doorstep. I don't want to see you bring the laziness in the training game to the game. Since it is the way, it is best not to give the opponent any chance!!!"

"understand!"

"Then, disband."

After the last sentence, everyone got up and left. Playing at home means that they can have a good night's sleep at home, and the players who finally don't have to experience traveling on the road are very satisfied.

There was nothing to say all night, and when the fans of Piacenza began to set up in the streets and alleys early the next morning, the players of Piacenza also gathered at the training base from their homes.

Under the leadership of Conte, the players conducted another half-day of low-intensity training. After ensuring that the starting players were in good condition, Conte let them go to the cafeteria at the base for dinner.

Naturally, a restaurant with strict diet control will not be delicious. Chicken breast burgers and vegetarian sandwiches became the lunch of the team members, but the team members who were engrossed in the game did not mind it much.

In the afternoon, after the current Palermo team arrived at the Leonardo Stadium, Piacenza had already completed the warm-up under the leadership of Conte. After handing over the stadium to the visiting team, the players listened to Conte's last tactical explanation in the locker room.

Although the coach has said a lot about what each player needs to do, in the end it is actually a stable word when it comes together.

Be steady first and not be impetuous, and then slowly look for opportunities to deliver a fatal blow to the opponent. This is the essence of defensive counterattack tactics. How it is implemented depends on the performance of the players on the field.

"CCTV, CCTV, audience friends..."

As the game got closer, the time passed faster and faster. Liu Jianhong's voice came out from the TV screen at some point, and the start of the game has entered the countdown.

"Both the home and away teams have finished their warm-up, oh~, okay, the two teams have entered the field behind the referee on duty."

The moment they stepped into the stadium at the same time, the cheers of the home fans burst out. Many fans who were not able to cheer for the team in the last game vented all the excitement brought about by the team's elimination of AC Milan at this moment.

Unfortunately, after the start of the game, Piacenza's lineup and tactics did not cater to the excited fans.

"Piacenza has re-arranged the formation of 4312. The layout of three defensive midfielders ensures the stability of the team's rear. It seems that the consumption of the players' state in the last game is still too great."

Not long after the start of the game, Liu Jianhong fully understood Conte's thoughts. Based on the destructive style of play of the Piacenza players on the field, it is not difficult to guess: "Palermo took the initiative to press out after being conservative at the beginning and took control of the situation."

There is no pressure to fight on multiple fronts, no pressure to relegation, the Palermo team ranked No.11 in the league can be said to be a team with no desires and no desires. If you have to list one wish, it may be a whole European qualification.

But whether this small club has enough capital and courage to play in the European war is another matter.

In short, Palermo came to challenge Piacenza away in a very relaxed manner in this game. It is not shameful to lose, but it is honorable to win.

After Piacenza retreated directly, the Palermo players and their coach suddenly discovered that their opponents in this game seemed to want to make them honorable.

There have never been any absolute underdogs in the five major leagues, and there are endless stories of vice squad leaders overturning top giants, not to mention mid-range teams that have passed all hardware.

So, after Palermo's players took over the rhythm of the game, these free players began to constantly put pressure on Piacenza's rear.

"Pastore broke through with the ball, Gilardino was easily passed, Ramirez went up to meet him, and it passed again!!!"

In the 30th minute of the game, Piacenza ushered in its first crisis. The talented Argentine midfielder Pastore, who Palermo bought in Xia Chuanghua at a high price, did not give any Piacenza players face.

If it hadn't been for Raimondi's supplementary defense in place to get ahead of Pastore at the end, no one can say whether the midfielder will come to shoot the big eagle with a bow.

"Raymonde is very smart, oh~, didn't continue to choose to dribble, Pastore chose to split the ball at the right time, Nicolas Bertolo, he got the ball on the wing!"

Facing Piacenza's defense, Palermo's offense was unambiguous at all. When Bertolo, the left midfielder in Palermo's 4231 lineup, got the ball, Miccoli, who inserted from the center, directly passed by Bini.

"Get rid of it, pass directly, Miccoli header!!!"

Even though Bini turned around to follow up immediately after being thrown off, he did not block the opponent's sudden striker at this moment. After a perfect arc, the ball slammed into Miccoli's forehead and flew towards the goal.

Such a short distance, such a sudden attack, Maurantanio standing in front of the goal was helpless.

"Goal! Palermo leads by one goal."
