When Andrea talks, you listen.
When Pirlo says ‘sit down’, you don’t look for a chair.
Wherever he points, you damn well go.
Josh Saunders won’t defy The Beard again. The New York City goalkeeper refused the advice of his Italian composer before David Accam’s penalty on Sunday.
City saw off Chicago Fire 4-3 but the spot kick put one between the sides with 20 minutes still to play and it could’ve been a lot less hairy had Andrea Pirlo’s warning been heeded.
Accam lines up the kick, Pirlo senses where it’s going. It goes exactly there. The ‘keeper goes the other way.
Idiot.
