Italians have always been proud of their Serie A. In their hearts, they look down on La Liga. For Sporting Gijon, a newly promoted team, the Italian media has not really paid attention to it, even though Sporting Gijon is currently ranked third in La Liga.
However, in their view, this only shows that the competitiveness of La Liga has declined, allowing a newly promoted team to act aggressively.
However, at this moment, facing the situation where Lazio was trailing 0-3 after more than half an hour of the game, all Italians who were paying attention to this game were silent.
They can't understand, they don't understand, they don't understand why this game is like this, they don't understand why the former Serie A champion Lazio was so easily scored three goals by Sporting Gijon?!
After Sporting Gijon took a three-goal lead, they did not stop there. Instead, they became more and more energetic. Wave after wave of offensives forced Lazio to shrink its defense. The Serie A giants were suppressed and had no ability to counterattack.
Every attack of Sporting Gijon aroused cheers from Sporting Gijon fans, while Lazio fans kept their hearts in their minds, fearing that their team would be stabbed in another hole in the next second.
At the end of the first half, the score did not change again. Sporting Gijon had six more shots in more than ten minutes after scoring the third goal, but in the end they failed to score again.
When the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, Sporting Gijon's players were still unsatisfied and a little unhappy and regretful that they could not expand the score again, and all the worried Italians breathed a sigh of relief - at least in the
They were safe for the next fifteen minutes.
***********
Amid cheers and songs at El Molinon Stadium, Sporting Gijon players entered the tunnel.
There was an atmosphere of excitement and joy throughout the stadium.
In the VIP box of Ermolinon Stadium, Manuel Arango, chairman of Sporting Gijon, said to the VIPs in the box with a proud face, "Signing coach Li Ang is the most proud thing in my life.
Sign a contract."
When he said this, his daughter, Ms. Benita Arango, looked at the man who disappeared at the entrance of the player's corridor with twinkling eyes. She tried to forget this man, but she found that she could not do it. She was strongly depressed.
Emotions made her even more uncomfortable. Li Ang's loyalty to feelings made Benita love and hate her. She could feel that Li Ang did not have no feelings for him. She was also very confident in her beauty. However, under such circumstances
, Li Ang was able to hold back, which made Benita angry, but also more obsessed with Li Ang. Such a man deserves respect and is even more worthy of cherishing.
"Great job!" In the home team's locker room at El Molinon Stadium, Li Ang shook his fist and said to the players.
He is such a passionate and enthusiastic head coach. When the players perform well, he does not hesitate to praise them. He is willing to pass on his excitement and confidence to the players.
"In the second half of the game, just play as you did in the first half!"
"The most important characteristic of the Italian team is defense. When they have to press out to score goals, it is a good thing for us."
"Offensive, guys, Lazio is the seed in the group and this game is our time to show our strength to European football!"
Throughout the halftime break, Li Ang showed excitement. In this way, he told the players to stay passionate, stay enthusiastic, stay in shape, and carry out the passion and attack to the end.
***********
In the visiting team's locker room at El Molinon Stadium.
"Shame! This game is a shame for Lazio! A shame for Roma! A shame for Italy!" a voice roared.
"The opponent was just a newly promoted team! But we lost three goals in halftime! What kind of shit did we play?! We embarrassed the city of Rome! We embarrassed this great city!"
"Everyone needs to reflect on whether we deserve to wear this jersey!"
"Damn it! In the second half of the game, everyone must work hard! The sacred and proud Lazio cannot be humiliated!"
The person roaring in the locker room at this moment is not Lazio coach Caso, but Lazio captain Di Canio!
Someone once commented that Di Canio is a natural captain, he is unruly and never gives in! When the team is in adversity, the team will be very grateful to have such a captain. This is a
A player with a dual combination of extraordinary football talent and devilish character!
Of course, Di Canio's fiery personality also got him into a lot of trouble. On September 26, 1998, Di Canio had a fight with the opponent's legendary defender Martin Keown during a match against Arsenal at Highbury Stadium.
They staged a boxing fight and were both sent off by referee Paul Alcock. Di Canio, dissatisfied with the decision, even pushed Alcock to the ground. As a result, he was suspended for an additional 11 games and fined 10,000 pounds.
This player later caused an uproar by performing a Nazi salute after scoring a goal in a Rome derby. Of course, according to the course of history, that only happened three months later.
Three things are self-evident about Di Canio: his talent that shines all the time, his inexhaustible source of passion, and his desire to win in every contest.
These three qualities exist in the most glorious moments of his career, as well as in those ridiculous moments that belong to him. His talent, passion and competitiveness are full of his controversial career. People say that the eyes are the soul.
Windows, at least with Di Canio, we can read his heart from his eyes.
***********
Such a player left a legend in every team he played for. When Di Canio left West Ham United in 2003, he and the fans there shed deep tears. Upton Park's "Di Canio"
"O'Lounge" and the tattoos Di Canio has branded on his body are proof of this relationship. Di Canio was and will always be a West Ham legend.
Di Canio was born in the Quaticirlio district of Rome, and the fans here are all avid Roma supporters. Perhaps because of his rebellious personality, Di Canio became a supporter of Lazio, or maybe it was because of his rebellious personality.
The most extreme kind. A young boy with a rebellious spirit is combined with a football team that strongly attracts him. Di Canio finds Lazio a perfect match. Suppressed by his local rival Roma, he can join a group of people.
Struggle, fight, and unyielding battle. He enjoys it all.
After Di Canio returned to Lazio, he was regarded by Lazio fans as the real team leader. He also had a very close relationship with Lazio's extreme fans. The composition of Lazio's fans is relatively complicated, and the extreme fans among them are also regarded as having fascist beliefs.
.For Di Canio, these beliefs are secondary, like things left behind after breaking up with an old lover, trivial details. Although Di Canio has been accused of racism by the news media many times,
He is still willing to "shamelessly" sit with Lazio's far-right fan group and happily sing racist songs for 90 minutes on Sunday, because in Di Canio's eyes, they are Lazio fans first.
Regarding Mussolini, Di Canio once wrote in his autobiography: "I was deeply attracted by Mussolini. I have many autobiographies of him. He was a deeply misunderstood person.
.He deceived the people and his actions were despicable, but they were all in pursuit of a higher goal. Mussolini was very principled and a moral person. But he reversed his view of right and wrong and compromised his morality.
.”
From Di Canio's perspective, the higher goal is to do the best you can and then win the game on the football field.
This is a person who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals and win!
However, such a player actually won FIFA's Fair Play Award for his sportsmanship. Everton and West Ham United met at Goodison Park. Di Canio gave up the shot when faced with a good opportunity to score.
Holding the ball in his arms allowed Everton goalkeeper Paul Gerrard to receive treatment from the team doctor. Perhaps in the eyes of this unruly shooter, such a scoring opportunity was unearned and bullying the weak, and he disdained it.
Such a player is born for adversity.
***********
At this moment, Sporting Gijon, whom they looked down upon, was leading by three goals at halftime. Lazio's leader was furious. He was angry for himself, for his inaction in the first half of the game, and for the weak performance of his teammates.
!
Di Canio's roar could be heard throughout the dressing room.
"In the second half of the game, I hope to see a different Lazio, a Lazio that rushes towards any enemy with a bayonet in its mouth!" Di Canio's expression was ferocious, gritting his teeth, his eyes were cold, and his mouth was spitting out hot steam, "
Glory to the great city of Rome!"
Men roared in the visiting team's locker room, like beasts.
