Here’s What Training Is Like When Your Coach Is A Free Kick Specialist

In a playing career that included stints with Roma, Sampdoria, Lazio and Inter, Serbian Sinisa Mihajlovic built a reputation as one the world’s finest dead-ball specialists. Alongside Andrea Pirlo, no player has scored more goals from direct free kicks in Serie A history than Mihajlovic with 28.

He was named Torino manager before the start of last season and guided the club to a ninth-place finish in Italy’s top flight. For a goalkeeper, playing under Mihajlovic is obviously a nightmare.

This isn’t training, this is punishment. This must be Torino’s form of the swear jar. No wonder Joe Hart didn’t want to make his Torino loan permanent.
