After Leeds City scored, the boos at Stan Park did not stop, but became louder.
Rangers fans vented all their anger and shock through the boos.
They were really angry and really shocked.
Because I really didn’t expect that even though it was at their home court, the team could be tied three times in a row after taking the lead...
When did our defense become so weak?!
Just like paper!
You must know that before this game, Stan Park Rangers only conceded fifteen goals in the twenty-four rounds of the league, which was the team with the fewest goals conceded in the league. It was also the only team that conceded more than twenty goals.
The following teams.
The team with the second fewest goals conceded is Wijston, who also conceded 24 goals, averaging one goal per game.
Stan Park Rangers' defense is all international-level players. Goalkeeper Victor Lemos is the main goalkeeper of the Brazilian national team. Right back Johnson Law is the main defender in England and is one of the top five right backs in today's football. Left
Defender Bruno Martins is the main full-back of the Portuguese national team, capable of both offense and defense. The two central defenders are Belgium's main international Eric Jacobs and Scotland's main Zach Gordon.
Before them there was England captain Harry Bernard, who was both offensive and defensive.
This main defense line cooperates well with each other and has complementary characteristics. Under the guidance of head coach Brooks, it has produced such an amazing defensive performance this season.
Unexpectedly, they collapsed in this game...
"This is the first time Stan Park Rangers has conceded three goals in a game this season... They have only conceded two goals at most before, and it was only the fifteenth round of the league. In the Liverpool derby, they
Two goals were scored by Liverpool United..." Matthew Cox quickly reported Stan Park Rangers' defensive statistics this season to highlight how poor their performance in today's game was.
So it's not difficult to understand why head coach Brooks was so angry after conceding the ball.
Because for him, this is indeed a "miracle" that has never happened before this season. Stan Park Rangers, the dominant Premier League hegemon, actually led three times in the game and was equalized three times...
Not only is this the first time that we have conceded three goals in a single game, but it is also the first time that we have led three times and been equalized three times.

When the Leeds City players were celebrating, they could still clearly hear the boos throughout the stadium.
But no one cares.
Some of them even pointed at the stands and laughed: "They are afraid of us!"
To be able to scare Rangers fans at Stan Park is a very high achievement indeed.
It is not easy for the Leeds City players.
Some of their players played here last season.
They didn't score a single goal in that game and were completely defeated 0:3.
These Leeds City players still remember the scenes at that time.
Stan Park Rangers fans cheer for every attack the team makes and for every goal they score.
But he won't boo the Leeds City players.
Although they were completely defeated, for the Leeds City players, the atmosphere of that game was not terrible. They could even say that they did not fully appreciate the horror of "undefeated home court".
It is normal to lose to the championship team 0:3.
Perhaps many Leeds City players at that time would feel lucky that they were not treated like that by the Stan Park stadium and could successfully complete a game.
But thinking about it now, it was just because they were unable to threaten Stan Park Rangers at that time. This stadium and the fans in this stadium did not regard Leeds City as an opponent or enemy.
They were just the targets of Stan Park Rangers' points and goal difference...
This feeling is actually quite bad, because it is being underestimated. No one likes to be underestimated. It’s just that Leeds City at the time was not qualified to express dissatisfaction. With their strength, it was normal to be underestimated, let alone the league champion, the Premier League
Nineteen teams, maybe fifteen at that time, were qualified to look down on them.
Now things have changed.
They were booed here!
The harsh and noisy boos sounded like the sound of nature to the Leeds City players at this moment!
That's not a curse, but the highest recognition for them!
During the halftime break, didn't the boss say let's try to see how big the gap is with the defending champion?
We tried it!
It doesn’t look very different from them!
As a result, the Leeds City players happily returned to their own half amid boos all over the place.
The players of Stan Park Rangers stood in their respective positions, waiting for their opponents to return to their positions for the kick-off. Their forward Palacio stood in the center circle with a football at his feet, his hands on his hips.
This is his fourth kickoff of the game.

It wasn't until Stan Park Rangers kicked the ball out that the boos turned into shouts.
Although they were dissatisfied and skeptical about the team's defensive performance, Rangers fans continued to provide support with songs and shouts when the team needed them.
It’s just that the performance of Stan Park Rangers players was completely different from the first half.
One very significant difference is that they were unable to continue to suppress Leeds City's offense.
Their high-position pressing intensity in the frontcourt also dropped rapidly, and was obviously not as good as before.
Sometimes when Jay Adams and Pete Williams get the ball in their own backcourt, there are no Stan Park Rangers players around to press them. As a result, they can calmly control the ball and turn around, then observe the situation in front and send the pass.
ball.
Brooks was very dissatisfied with this. He kept shouting and waving his arms on the sidelines, telling the players to press up, press up, and press up again.
But the effect is not very good.
Because the physical energy of Stan Park Rangers players is almost exhausted.
Leeds City equalized the score for the third time in the 75th minute, when the physical fitness of the players on the field reached a bottleneck.
Under such circumstances, it is indeed difficult to ask players to maintain high-position pressure that requires extremely high physical fitness.
At the same time, Leeds City's physical advantage gradually became apparent.
When the Stan Park Rangers players were unable to run due to physical reasons, they were still able to implement man-to-man defense from the offensive third zone to the defensive third zone on both sides against the Stan Park Rangers players.
This kind of running that keeps sprinting up and down is really breathtaking...
"I know that Leeds City's team has good physical fitness, but I was still a little surprised when I saw this in today's game... Before the start of the Christmas schedule, there were voices saying that Leeds City's abundant physical fitness would be eliminated before the Christmas schedule.
If they are exhausted, they will be in big trouble. As a result, Leeds City successfully avoided relegation early on Christmas. Later, there were voices saying that after the intensive schedule of Christmas and New Year, Leeds City's physical fitness will have big problems... It is already February now.
Where is Leeds City's big physical problem?" Cox lamented while looking at the game screen.
"Everyone knows that coach Tony Clark attaches great importance to physical fitness, and he has emphasized the importance of running in modern football more than once in public... So how much attention he attaches to it, now everyone can see it."

Kamala stared at Johnson Law not far in front of her.
At this point in the game, Hulay scored twice and Jay Adams also scored. It looked like Leeds City was not at a disadvantage.
But Kamala is far from satisfied with her performance.
Because he hasn't defeated the person in front of him yet.
Although he once indirectly assisted Hu Lai's second goal in a cross from the wing, he did not consider it a victory against Johnson Law.
After all, if he really beats his opponent, he will not pass directly from the wing, but will go into Stan Park Rangers' penalty area...
He felt that if he could not turn Johnson Law into a dog, then he would not feel that he had won today.
Johnson Law felt the young man's unabashed gaze.
If the two sides had fought each other last time, he would have been able to smile at the opponent.
But now he looked serious and did not dare to take it lightly.
Although he has not allowed Kamala to get any benefits from his side until now, the pressure this young Frenchman has put on him is real.
This made him feel more tired than usual playing games.
As he was staring, he saw the football being passed to Kamara's feet, and the latter was dribbling the ball towards him.
Johnson Law clearly saw the provocation in it.
Otherwise, why didn't he just hide away from me, but why would he come to me on his own initiative?
Lao frowned, but did not dodge, but slowly retreated while preparing for the attack.
Then he looked at the right opportunity and took advantage of Kamara's opportunity to move the football away. He stabbed diagonally in an attempt to separate Kamara from the ball.
But this time his startup speed was a little slower and he failed!
He bumped into Kamala!
Fortunately, Lao is very experienced and moves quickly with his feet. He took advantage of Kamara's strength and suddenly made a tackle with his feet.
He pushed the football out of the sideline with his toes, and then he completely let go of his body's center of gravity, pressing his entire weight on Kamara and squeezing him to the ground.
Because he had already kicked the football off the sideline first, knocking down Kamara was not considered a foul.
Kamara looked very unhappy that he failed to break through Lao, which could be seen from the way he pushed Lao away.
Seeing this scene, Johnson Law was not happy because of Kamala's mood swings. On the contrary, his inner worry further deepened...
He seemed to feel a blazing flame burning from the young man beside him.
The young man didn't care that he might be burned, he just wanted to die with himself...
