Domenico Tedesco used water bottles to map out touchline instructions for Marco Asensio as Fenerbahçe edged Alanyaspor 3-2 on Sunday.

According to L'Équipe, the improvised tutorial came shortly before the Spaniard set up Anderson Talisca for the 78th-minute winner.

The Italian-German coach moved the bottles to demonstrate the runs and positioning he wanted.

Footage of the exchange travelled quickly across social media.

The guidance no doubt helped the former PSG midfielder execute the plan moments later.
