510 Another Win

"Andrea! Listen well!" Coach Max Allegri said to his deep-lying playmaker after he arrived on the touchline. "The next few minutes will be crucial for us if we wish to win this game. We have got to play with a clear purpose when on the ball in order to get a goal quickly."

Andrea Pirlo nodded and said, "I'm listening, coach. Go on."

"Okay, here is the plan," the coach continued. "Now that Sampdoria has scored, they will grow confident and launch more attacks against us. So, our strategy is to wait and absorb the pressure until we catch them off guard and counterattack against them."

"Yeah, that might really work," Andrea Pirlo said, nodding pensively.
