At the beginning of the second half, the Alaves team launched a fierce offensive into Sporting Gijon's penalty area. With a score of zero to three, Alaves had to give it a try.
However, Sporting Gijon's defense, led by two young men, Juan Carlos and Marcos, successfully contained Alaves, especially Juan Carlos' sweep in the midfield. It can be said that there is danger everywhere.
Carlos appears wherever he goes, which often suffocates Alaves' offensive when it reaches Carlos, making it difficult for them to launch a smooth attack.
In addition, Marcos' protection in the middle is like erecting a barrier in front of the team's defenders. With Carlos' sweep and Marcos' subsequent interception, Alaves wants to threaten Sporting Gijon's
The goal becomes quite difficult.
Neither Natexio nor Dolosgo could break through Marcos's defense head-on in the middle, and could only look for opportunities on the side.
On the wing, Carlos had already been ready, working with the full-backs to set up a defensive line, just like a fishing net, waiting for a big fish called Alaves to crash in.
***********
Alaves had no way to attack and was a little impatient. In the end, the players tried to rely on their personal abilities to break through and seek opportunities. What Li Ang was not afraid of the most was this. His team's overall defense line was maintained quite well, and he was confident to stop no matter who came.
What's more, speaking of it, Alaves has no real stars. Although they were brilliant a few seasons ago, after all, they have been in La Liga for three seasons, and all the real stars of some caliber have been lost.
.
Alaves's team's top scorer, Navarro, is the team's most threatening player. At the same time, Navarro also ranks third in the Spanish Second Division scorer list.
However, Navarro is not the kind of player who can rely on his personal skills to fight his way out. Facing Sporting Gijon's pressing defense, this person cannot get support from the front, and naturally cannot pose a threat to Sporting Gijon's goal.
Li Ang was sitting on the coaching bench. Although Alaves' offensive was relatively fierce after the start of the second half and seemed to be in a counterattack-oriented posture, Li Ang was not too worried.
Sporting Gijon's defense is tight, the whole court presses, and the opponent's offensive line is cut. With this kind of defensive tactics, there is only one way to break out of the encirclement. This requires the opponent's overall strength to be much higher than Sporting Gijon, and the use of skilled coordination.
To tear apart and mobilize Sporting Gijon's defense, it is best to have stars with extraordinary strength who can single-handedly change the outcome of the game. Unfortunately, Alaves does not have these. Therefore, Li Ang is not too worried about anything, unless his own team
The player made a fatal mistake, otherwise the goal would have been relatively stable.
Li Ang is waiting. Alaves's offensive cannot always be strong. The opponent is attacking with a lot of energy. Once they can't attack for a long time, this energy will drain out, and the game will return to the control of Sporting Gijon.
At that time, it was time for Sporting Gijon to go out with a sickle in hand.
***********
The Alaves team has been attacking for ten minutes, but they have not achieved any results. The score is still 0:3, and they are two goals behind.
Alaves' head coach McCarronal was very dissatisfied with this. He kept waving his arms off the court to signal the team to press forward, attack, attack, attack.
This Alaves firefighting coach is very impatient. The team cannot attack for a long time and even has no hope of scoring. This makes him anxious.
Li Ang glanced over there and saw that his colleague only waved to signal the team to press on him. He curled his lips contemptuously. This person obviously lacked the experience to deal with such a scene, or to put it in more straightforward terms: This person
No longer a threat to him!
McCronal only thought that the team was three goals behind and had to attack. However, on the one hand, there was no way to attack and he could not find a way to tear apart Sporting Gijon's defense. At the same time, he did not notice Gijon at all.
The fangs hidden behind Sporting’s defense: Did this gentleman so quickly forget the sharp blade that Sporting Gijon held high in the first half of the game?!
It’s almost time!
Li Ang looked at the court. Although Alaves' head coach McCarronal kept roaring on the sidelines, the morale and fighting spirit of his players were inversely proportional. The Alaves players were unable to attack for a long time and were unable to score goals.
The energy in my heart has been almost worn away.
Li Ang stood up, walked to the sidelines, and stared at the court. He did not speak, but just looked at the sidelines, and then returned to the coaching bench and sat down.
Although Li Ang didn't say anything or make any gestures, he just walked off the sidelines and returned to his seat, the players on the field already understood what the head coach meant: It's time to attack!
***********
Li Ang sent out the signal to attack, but even he did not expect that Sporting Gijon's next attack would come so soon, and there would be a surprise.
Alaves is still trying to find a way to score. Their midfielder Natexio is dribbling the ball. In front of him is Marcos, who is waiting hard. This makes Natexio frown. He had previously
I have tried to break through from this person several times, but the results were not good. Either the ball was intercepted, or I was forced to pass back. Anyway, the way was blocked.
At the same time, Alaves' other forward Ivan Alonso retreated to respond.
Natexio hesitated for a moment and chose to pass the football to Alonso.
Alonso stood there waiting for the football, but he didn't expect someone to come out from the diagonal.
"Carlos! Nice! He stopped the football midway!" D'Agostino shouted.
"Alonso stood there waiting for the football and did not take the initiative to catch the ball. Did he think he was having dinner in the hotel? Did the waiter bring the meal to his mouth?" Gonzalez said sarcastically.
Maybe it was because Alaves couldn't attack for a long time, and their players were a little tired, both physically and mentally. This time, Alonso was a little lazy or relaxed.
However, this was just a small mistake and was immediately caught by Sporting Gijon!
***********
After Carlos intercepted the ball, he made a slight adjustment and passed the football to Miguel Cobas.
Miguel Cobas took the ball and suddenly advanced from the center, catching Desio off guard.
Angel hurriedly came to fill the position.
Miguel Cobas passed the ball to Mata!
After Mata got the ball, he took advantage of his speed and began to accelerate and dribble forward.
Alaves' full-back Martino came up to intercept, and their midfielder Dolosgue also returned to defend this time.
"Martinos and Doroscos have Mata surrounded!" the narrator shouts.
Just when Matisino and Dolosgo were about to encircle the circle, Mata knocked the football back with his heel and passed the football to Miguel Cobas, who came up to meet him. Then he stepped forward one by one.
Jumping and jumping, he fought his way out of the encirclement of Martinos and Dolosgo.
Miguel Cobas did not hesitate after receiving the ball. He took advantage of the situation and sent a direct pass at the right time.
The two Sporting Gijon players worked together tacitly, and Mata carved a way out.
***********
Alaves defender Trotta has been in a state of nervousness since the start of the second half. He was afraid of Sporting Gijon's wave of attacks.
Fortunately, after the second half of the game started, our team began to "dominated" the offense, and the offensive side that "occupied the initiative" found that their goal was safe for the time being. This safety made Trotta breathe a sigh of relief.
And at this moment, Sporting Gijon's attack came suddenly and swiftly!
Trotta's whole body immediately became tense.
At this moment, seeing Mata coming with the ball, Trotta gritted his teeth and pounced on Mata.
Mata didn't slow down, he just inserted into the middle of the penalty area!
"Don't let him break through!! Stop him!" Goalkeeper Pablo shouted behind the defenders.
Trotta was in front, and they were about to meet.
Mata suddenly pulled the ball laterally and then raised his calf.
He wants to shoot?!
Trotta was shocked!
Definitely can't let him shoot!
Absolutely not!
At this moment, Trotta's mind was dominated by this idea!
All he could think about was: Don't let the opponent shoot!
Trotta, who was obsessed with stopping the opponent, fell to the ground and shoveled regardless.
Then, everyone saw that Mata fell down like a tree knocked down by lumberjacks!
This is a fall in the penalty area!
Then, everyone heard the referee's whistle when Mata fell to the ground.
