The entire El Molinon Stadium sang loudly, and the home team fans burst out with great enthusiasm. They have waited for this game for too long. They miss the La Liga stadium so much, and they are eager to return to the place where they should be!
At this time, the camera showed the visiting team's coaching bench on the sidelines. Alaves' head coach McCarronard couldn't sit still. He stood on the sidelines and stared at the court, his expression extremely serious. This is
Just five minutes into the game, this gentleman couldn't sit still - he thought that Sporting Gijon at home would put as much pressure on their goal as possible, and that Sporting Gijon would launch an offensive. However, after the game started,
McCronal discovered that Sporting Gijon's offense was so crazy...
At the beginning of the game, Alaves kicked off. It stands to reason that Alaves should take advantage of this opportunity to control the football at their feet, and then launch successive waves of offensives, threatening the gate of Sporting Gijon and taking the lead correctly.
Scored a goal and dragged the game into a familiar track for Alaves.
Alaves is the leader in offensive power among the strong teams in the Spanish Second Division. They finally ranked fourth in the league this season. However, Alaves ranked second in the number of goals scored, which shows their offensive ability.
However, before their attack even got close to Sporting Gijon's goal, they were intercepted by Juan Carlos and Miguel Cobas.
Then, after stealing the ball, Sporting Gijon had no intention of slowing down, but immediately let Miguel Cobas organize the attack.
Miguel Cobas split the ball. After Juan Mata got the ball, he used his skillful foot skills and speed to drive the ball forward.
Angel went up to follow Mata, but was stopped suddenly by the opponent. After giving way, he passed the football into the penalty area.
McGour Pihra completed the header pass under the interference of Alaves center back Telles. Barez then directly volleyed the ball over the crossbar.
There was a burst of applause in the stands. Although the goal was not scored, Sporting Gijon's counterattack immediately after stealing the ball still boosted morale!
***********
"Are the two teams going to play against each other?" commentator D'Agostino said.
In Alaves' lineup, Natexio, Dolosgo and Desio are all very high forward, with only Angel as a deep-lying midfielder. This can be seen from the adjustment in this position.
The Alaves team's plan is to use their offense to completely suppress Sporting Gijon in this game. The ideal result is that Sporting Gijon cannot even get out of halftime.
This is also the confidence that Alaves has in dominating the Spanish Second Division. Their offensive ability is so strong that they often overwhelm their opponents and they can only parry, but not fight back.
In addition, for Sporting Gijon, Li Ang made an adjustment to the starting lineup, that is, Juan Mata retreated to the midfielder and played as a left midfielder, while McGuer Pihra and Barrez were on the front line.
's partner.
With this adjustment, Sporting Gijon's midfield and frontcourt are even more threatening. Mata's skills and breakthroughs are stronger than Javier Blanco, and Barrez's ball-playing ability in the frontcourt is also good, and he can compete with Maigu.
Er-Pihra forms a certain complementarity.
Therefore, Sporting Gijon's tactics today are also very clear, which is to attack!
Alaves' tactics are offensive, and they are eager to suppress Sporting Gijon from the beginning. Unfortunately, what they encountered today was a high-spirited and well-prepared Sporting Gijon.
Alaves may have formulated a tactic from the beginning to use the kick-off right to put pressure on Sporting Gijon to take the lead. However, before their offensive could start, Sporting Gijon intercepted the ball.
Then Sporting Gijon took advantage of the situation and launched a counterattack, giving Alaves a powerful start!
Not only did they show off their power, but in the subsequent games, Sporting Gijon completely took over the game. They put maximum pressure on Alaves' goal and firmly controlled the rhythm of the game!
This caught Araves completely off guard.
The last time the two teams met in the Copa del Rey quarter-finals, although Li Ang's team beat Alaves 3-0 in that game, in that game, Sporting Gijon's first half was almost
They defended with all their strength and only succeeded in sneak attacks by relying on several counterattack opportunities in the second half of the game.
Therefore, even though they lost to Sporting Gijon in that game by a score of 0 to 3, the Alaves players were unconvinced, and they made up their mind to use offense to destroy Sporting Gijon from the beginning of the game.
Human fighting spirit!
However, what the Alaves did not expect was that after the game started, they were the ones who were stunned by the attack! Faced with Sporting Gijon's crazy offensive, Alaves, who was somewhat unprepared, began to panic.
***********
In the ninth minute of the game, Alaves finally got a chance to counterattack. They pressed hard and prepared to counterattack Sporting Gijon. However, their pass was intercepted again outside Sporting Gijon's penalty area. Gijon
Atletico's pressing tactics were successful again.
After successfully stealing the ball, Sporting Gijon immediately launched an attack.
Marcos, who stole the ball, passed it to Miguel Cobas, who then organized the attack and Miguel Cobas took the ball.
After seeing Miguel Cobas take the ball, Desio quickly pounced on him. Miguel Cobas is the core of Sporting Gijon's midfield attack and is a key target. He wants to press Miguel Cobas.
Cobas, while slowing down Sporting Gijon's attack speed.
Miguel Cobas saw Desio rushing towards him and passed the football to Juan Mata not far away.
Almost at the same time as he passed the ball, Angel pounced on Mata. He planned to take advantage of the opponent's unsteady footing to steal the ball when Mata received the ball.
"Angel stepped forward to defend Mata...beautiful!" D'Agostino exclaimed excitedly.
Mata dunked the football to the inside at the same time as Angel pounced on him. Angel seemed to expect that Mata would spike the ball, and his second counterattack came. This time, Mata showed people
With his superb footwork, he knocked the ball inward with his heel, and the football was passed back from between his own legs to Marcos' feet.
Angel was played!
The most important thing for Alaves is that in the face of Sporting Gijon's attack, the defense they temporarily blocked in the midfield collapsed: Angel and Desio both rushed up, and then both of them
It was broken through, and the result now is - Alaves's defense in the midfield has been penetrated, and now there is a blank area that can be crossed directly from the left midfield to the penalty area!
**********
Marcos immediately transferred the football to Miguel Cobas. The latter did not delay and directly passed the football forward with a big kick. He was looking for Barrez!
"Sporting de Gijon's attack is coming again!!" D'Agostino shouted.
When Varez stopped the ball, there were only three Alaves defenders in front of him. On Sporting Gijon's side, McGuor Pihra was already in the penalty area, and Juan Mata and full-back Jay
Free has also rushed to the front of the penalty area.
Miguel Cobas even passed the ball to Barrez and now he is also rushing towards the frontcourt.
Juan Carlos' position has also moved forward, ready to receive teammates or intercept opponents outside the penalty area.
Only Marcos remained firmly in his own half.
It can be said that all the forces that Sporting Gijon could devote to the attack were pressed forward at this moment!
They even formed a local advantage of using more to defeat fewer!
In this game, Li Ang moved Mata's position back to the midfield. His only consideration was that Mata has good skills and fast speed! Especially the latter, Mata and full-back Jeffrey, these two have a
Common features: fast.
In this way, Sporting Gijon's left wing can explode with great speed and suddenness when switching from defense to offense!
Li Ang expected that Alaves must also want to focus on offense. At this time, the most important thing for Sporting Gijon in offense is not possession of the ball, but speed. He wants to speed up in the midfield!
After receiving the ball, Barrez did not stay much, but passed the ball sideways, and Mata came up to catch the ball!
***********
At this moment, seeing Mata's position with the ball, Alaves' head coach McCronal was anxious: Mata went up to get the ball. There was no defensive player around him. Alaves had just tried to hit the ball.
During a counterattack, their right back Martino rushed forward to participate in the attack. At this time, he was desperately returning to defense.
Mata was very decisive. After receiving the ball, he cut directly inside and penetrated into the penalty area!
Alaves' center backs were originally guarding McGuer Pihra and Barez. When they saw Mata advancing so resolutely into the penalty area, one of the center backs, Trotta, quickly dropped Barez.
, go up and intercept.
Seeing Trotta rushing out to intercept him, Mata immediately swung his feet to try to shoot. Trotta was tricked into flying to block him, but he suddenly split the football...
Then people saw Sporting Gijon's full-back Jeffrey interspersed.
Jeffrey caught up with the football and passed the football directly into the penalty area close to the baseline.
"Barrez, there's no one around him...he shoots..."
Alaves was stunned by the series of passes from Sporting Gijon, and made the most fatal mistake. Mata was defended, and McGuer Pihra was defended. On the contrary, it was the one who rarely got the chance to start.
Barrez, who suddenly started the game today, was omitted.
Faced with Jeffrey's pass, Barrez shot directly!
The football flew straight towards the goal. Alaves' goalkeeper Pablo flew to save it, but the distance was too close. Barrez's shot was extremely powerful...the goalkeeper was completely powerless.
Almost as soon as Pablo fell to the ground to tackle the ball, the football had already passed under him, knocking the snow-white net high into the air and stirring up the enthusiasm of the entire stadium!
