Chapter 350 - Chapter 351 Hello, old friends! Two in one chapter
Corner kick chance for Real Madrid.
Beckham stands at the penalty spot.
He raised three fingers. This means point forward.
Then, the referee's whistle sounded, and Beckham took a run, making a wonderful arc and hoisting the football into the penalty area.
Samoel, who was originally in the middle, suddenly rushed towards the front point in a roundabout way, then jumped in front of Dorado and hit the goal behind.
"Samuel!"
Bang!
The football hit the crossbar hard and then bounced back.
This caused chaos in the Sporting Gijon penalty area. Sporting Gijon players wanted to clear the football out of the danger zone, while Real Madrid wanted to complete a second attack.
Pepe won the aerial battle with Raul. He successfully pushed the football out, but it did not clear far. The football fell into the open space in front of the penalty area. Players from Real Madrid and Sporting Gijon had opportunities.
Get this ball.
Figo rushed up.
Carlos also rushed up.
Figo arrived before Carlos and drew the football first.
Carlos was well prepared for this, and he directly used his chest to block the powerful volley that was close at hand.
After a muffled sound, the football bounced high.
Carlos, who was stifled by the powerful shot, swayed and then bent down. If the camera is zoomed in, you can see that the young man's facial muscles are twitching and painful.
However, Carlos seemed to be fine and rushed forward again, pushing the football away before Figo who was about to continue the attack.
The football flew up, and then Grosso rushed out and pushed the football forward again. The tall Italian defender was good at heading the ball, and he directly headed the ball to Ribery on the wing.
Ribery ran over and stopped the football before Helguera. However, he was entangled by Guti. Ribery knew the importance of counterattack speed. This time, he did not turn around and dribble the ball. Instead, he put the football
It was given to Albertini in the middle, who also did not let the football stop, but moved the football to the right wing, aiming at the feet of Mata who was sprinting down the wing.
***********
"Beautiful! Continuous delivery!"
"This is Sporting Gijon's counterattack! Their counterattack is coming again!"
Mata caught up with the football, and he started to sprint with the ball, while Guti, who was guarding the midfielder, quickly rushed towards Mata. He knew that he could never let this kid increase his speed.
The bodies of the two were entangled while running. Mata had a good opportunity to control the ball at his feet. He was getting closer and closer to the penalty area.
Suddenly, Mata took the ball and cut inside laterally.
Guti knew that he could no longer hesitate. He spotted an opening where Mata was adjusting to hit the ball and suddenly made a tackle. However, he did not expect that Mata's adjustment was intended for a long shot. At this time, Mata
He just happened to pull the ball with the inner arch of his foot and bring the football over. The result was that Guti's tackle foot firmly stamped on the side of Mata's ankle...
Mata, who was originally as nimble as a rabbit, rolled to the ground as if he had been hit by a rifle at close range.
The referee's sharp whistle sounded immediately.
"Mata is still dribbling the ball! Guti follows him! Foul! ... God, this kick is not light!"
Guti's kick was very fierce. After Mata fell to the ground, he continued to roll on the turf and let out a shrill scream. Then, he finally stopped rolling, and the poor little guy tried to get up and check his ankle.
But the huge pain stimulated his nerves, and he screamed and rolled on the ground.
Guti, who committed the foul, ignored the screaming Mata. He quickly waved his arms to indicate to the referee who was running over that he did not do it on purpose.
Carlos, who was nearest here, had already rushed up with red eyes. He wanted to teach the perpetrator a lesson.
"Calm down!" Fortunately, Albertini reacted quickly enough, hugged Carlos, and pulled him back. Otherwise, regardless of whether Carlos made a move or not, he would definitely get a yellow card if he rushed over like this.
Yes, you know, he already has a yellow card on him.
Carlos was hugged by Albertini, and then Sporting Gijon's vice-president handed Carlos to Dorado, asking him to keep an eye on the kid.
Then, Albertini returned to the scene of the incident. Players from both sides gathered around and were confronting each other. The Real Madrid players explained that this was not an intentional foul, but the Sporting Gijon people obviously did not accept this statement.
A fierce look appeared on his face.
***********
When Mata was brought down to the ground, Li Ang jumped up from the coaching bench. You must know that Mata had just returned from injury in this game. If he was injured again, Li Ang would have the desire to kill.
"Red card!" Li Ang shouted, "flagrant foul!"
However, then he saw the referee Malenko just took out a yellow card from his pocket.
"Grass mud horse!" He waved his fist and roared at the referee, swearing in Chinese.
Assistant coach Banderas glanced at Li Ang. Although he did not understand what Li Ang meant by the Chinese sentence, it was not a good thing to think about. Then he looked nervously at the referee and the fourth official. It seemed that Li Ang did not understand what the Chinese sentence meant.
Attracting attention, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Captain Hierro is negotiating with Real Madrid captain Raul. Both parties are blushing and their necks are thick, and there is no trace of the friendship between them.
Albertini made a gesture to the sidelines asking the team doctor to come in.
The referee then waved to the sidelines.
Team doctor Marotta hurried over with a medical kit.
Marotta squatted down, just took a look at Mata's injury, and then asked a few questions. His expression became serious, and then Marotta immediately made a gesture to the sidelines!
Substitution gesture!
"Fuck your sister!" When Li Ang saw this gesture, he cursed in great frustration.
Then he looked at the bench, his eyes wandering between Modric and Javier Blanco, and then his eyes finally rested on Javier Blanco.
Compared with Modric, Blanco is faster. In this game, Liang focuses on playing on the wing and needs to play with speed. And Blanco is Liang's absolute direct descendant who was promoted from the B team last season, although he has been reduced to a team player this season.
As a substitute, he has very little playing time, but his training attitude is not to mention and his training status is also very good. This young man is very hardworking and very smart. He shows his attitude by silently working hard in training: he is always ready!
***********
Chapter 351
"Javier." Leon shouted, "Go and warm up! Hurry up!"
When Blanco heard the call, he stood up happily and followed assistant coach Scott Rui to warm up. Modric, who was not called by name, was a little disappointed. He was also eager to play in the game against Real Madrid.
!
The referee Malenko only showed Guti a yellow card, which caused great dissatisfaction among the Sporting Gijon players.
They surrounded the referee and the perpetrator Guti, and the Real Madrid players were not to be outdone. The two sides were still in a confrontation, and some people started to use their hands.
"The referee only showed Guti a yellow card for the foul. This is the biggest reason for the dissatisfaction of the Sporting Gijon players. Obviously, they think Guti's behavior definitely deserves a red card!" Dagos
Tino said.
"The red card is the most appropriate penalty. Guti's foul was very bad. It seems that Mata was seriously injured. Poor little guy, he just returned from injury in this game. According to the Gijon media, in order to catch up with Real Madrid
In this game, Mata resumed training very hard. He caught up with the game, but now he is injured again." Gonzalez criticized and questioned Guti's referee's decision, "If the game starts without
If Carlos' defensive action against Zidane that time was used as a basis for punishment, Guti's action this time was definitely a red card! The referee's penalty scale is obviously unconvincing..."
***********
"Do you know what you were doing just now?" Hierro roared at Guti.
Guti had a straight face. He didn't intend to explain his character. However, because of the special nature of the person he was shouting at, he finally explained a few words, "I went for the ball. This is just a question."
Accident!"
"Accidentally you are paralyzed!" Pepe yelled angrily.
Guti didn't even look at Pepe. He was too lazy to pay attention to this Brazilian boy. Only the old captain Hierro of the Sporting Gijon team could make him pay attention and think highly of him.
To be honest, Guti did not mean to hurt anyone. Unexpectedly, Mata just adjusted the supporting leg and then shoveled directly on the ankle.
When he shoveled Mata, Guti was also scared. He was worried about getting a red card. However, when he saw that Malenko only showed him a yellow card, he immediately relaxed.
"Mr. Referee, this is an absolute red card!" Sporting Gijon deputy Albertini complained and protested to the referee, "Our player is seriously injured, is a yellow card enough?"
The referee was unmoved, with a serious expression on his face. He waved his hand to signal the Sporting Gijon people surrounding him to disperse.
***********
Mata covered his ankle and lay in pain. He suffered such an injury in such a crucial game... Although the specific test results have not yet come out, Mata has an intuition that the injury may be serious and he is expected to be absent for at least more than a month.
time, this is indeed a big blow to this young man. He had just returned from injury, but was immediately injured again. There is nothing more painful and sad than this.
"Mr. Marotta, how is my injury?" Marotta asked.
"Don't worry, you will be back on the court soon." Marotta patted Mata's shoulder and said comfortingly. Although he heard the team doctor say this, seeing Marotta's frown, Mata's
The mood is still very low.
Li Ang was on the sidelines, with a gloomy look on his face, and called Javier Blanco back who was still warming up.
"Javier, after you come on the field, if you have a chance, let me attack Guti and attract him to defend you!" Li Ang said, "He has cards, and he may have some scruples when defending. In this way
It will help you break through. Of course, if he keeps pestering you, find a way to get him to take more cards and get rid of him!"
"Tell others to go to Tuguti as much as possible!" Li Ang paused and added.
"Boss, I understand!" Javier Blanco nodded. He even had the illusion that of the two situations mentioned by the boss, the one he seemed to want to see more was the latter one: Let Gu
Di received a card again, accumulated yellow cards and was fired!
Mata's right ankle was injured. With the support of team doctor Marotta, he hopped off the field on his left foot.
The stands at the Bernabeu were booing loudly. Real Madrid fans were still unfriendly to Mata under such circumstances. They still remembered that in last season's Copa del Rey final, Mata scored for Sporting Gijon and Real Madrid lost.
An important promoter of the crown.
Li Ang hugged Mata and patted Mata on the shoulder: "Well done!"
Mata's eyes were red and he was holding back tears, but he suddenly said, "Boss, I don't want to go back to the locker room now. I want to watch the game on the bench."
For example, if a player suffers a serious injury, he or she will generally not stay on the bench, but will go directly to the locker room or even go directly to the hospital.
Li Ang glanced at Mata, then nodded, "Go!"
He knew what this kid was thinking. He wanted to sit on the bench, watch his teammates fight, and watch them win the game!
***********
Sporting Gijon made a substitution.
Javier Blanco came on to replace the injured Juan Mata.
The fourth official checked Blanco's spikes and allowed him to play.
After Blanco came on the field, he quickly conveyed the tactical instructions of head coach Li Ang to the whole team: The whole team aims at Guti's breakthrough!
After hearing this tactical instruction from the head coach, the players who had just held their breath because of the referee's decision were very happy and satisfied. They were very unhappy. Li Ang's tactical adjustment was just to their liking!
If the referee doesn't do anything, they will do it themselves!
Although no one said it out loud, everyone had an idea in their hearts, that is, to find a way to get Guti to get out of here!
Mata left the field injured and he also won a good free kick opportunity for Sporting Gijon.
Albertini is Sporting Gijon’s number one penalty taker!
I saw him carefully placing the ball on the turf, then taking two steps back and waiting for the opponent to line up the wall.
***********
Albertini looked up at the stands, where white clothes were fluttering. He took a look at today's opponents, Zidane, Figo, and Raul. These are all his old opponents. He was wearing a red and black jersey.
I have played against these people countless times, but now - looking down at my red and white jersey, it is no longer the red and black striped jersey!
The San Siro that haunts him only exists in his dreams.
He knows that this is the last time of his career, and maybe he really wants to retire from Sporting Gijon.
However, this is okay, I feel good here, and I feel like I have regained the joy of football... I guess so!
Bernabeu!
Old rival!
So now let’s use this arc to draw a beautiful rainbow for the twilight years of our career.
Real Madrid's wall is lined up!
Referee Malenko backed away. When he retreated to a place where he would not interfere with the flight of the ball, he blew his whistle.
"beep!"
Albertini took a run-up, one step, two steps, three steps, stepped on the ball with his left foot, and quickly hit the middle and lower part of the football with his right foot like a whip. At the same time, he stretched his hands and kept his upper body straight.
The football flew out, bringing with it a piece of grass.
A very, very clear arc, like a rainbow in the sky, crossed the jumping wall and went straight into the upper left corner of the goal.
Real Madrid goalkeeper Casillas sensed something was wrong as soon as he made a save for the ball. He was helpless and even watched in horror - the football suddenly dropped as it approached the goal, slid into the goal against the crossbar, and hit the ball.
net!
Fallen ball!
Albertini opened his arms and looked at the goal and the Bernabeu stand behind the goal, as if to say hello: Hello, old friends!
