Baptista, who had just accelerated, fell to the ground like a galloping wild horse tripped by a bridle.
The football also rolled out of the bottom line, and at the same time, deafening boos rang out from the stands of Pizjuan Stadium.
Among the huge boos, the most eye-catching thing was that the referee's whistle was immediately blown loudly.
Seeing this scene, Sevilla coach Caparros stood up from his seat, looked into the field, and then the coach waved his fist in celebration.
Almost at the same time, Li Ang jumped into a rage on the sidelines and slammed the tactical board in his hand to the ground.
The reason why the two head coaches were so excited was that the referee Gomez, who was officiating the game, ran into the penalty area and pointed his finger at the penalty spot.
***********
"Look at the direction of Gomez's finger... it's a penalty! It's a penalty!"
"Hierro tried to stop Baptista, but his final tackle knocked down the Brazilian! This is a penalty! The foul location was in the penalty area, there is no problem with the penalty kick!"
As the commentator said, the referee awarded a penalty kick, a penalty kick without any controversy.
The players of Sporting Gijon were excited because of this penalty. They gathered around and wanted to explain to the referee that Hierro's foul was actually outside the penalty area and it was just Baptista who fell in the penalty area... Of course they didn't.
What evidence is there, just in case the referee is deceived? Although this possibility is less than one in ten thousand, we still have to fight for it!
However, the referee's attitude was very firm. He ignored the protests of the Sporting Gijon players. He kept spreading his hands outward to signal the Sporting Gijon players surrounding him to disperse. In this way, he pushed aside the crowd and walked towards the player who had just left the ground.
Sporting Gijon captain Hierro got up. At the same time, he took out a sign from his pocket and showed it to Hierro: Red!
Hierro's expression immediately changed. The moment he made the tackle, he realized something was wrong. He had misjudged the opponent's speed, and then saw Baptista falling in the penalty area. Hierro
He closed his eyes in great pain, knowing that the penalty kick could not be escaped.
Then, Hierro was guessing what kind of card he would get. For such a foul in the penalty area, a card would definitely be received, but the difference would be a yellow card or a red card. Judging from Hierro's foul action, both a yellow card and a red card
Yes, it depends on the referee's decision. However, considering that the game has only started less than ten minutes, and considering the factors of maintaining the balance of the game, the referee will generally be merciful when both yellow cards and red cards are acceptable. Therefore,
The possibility of a yellow card is relatively high.
***********
Hierro thought he would get a yellow card. This is the penalty scale that the referee will choose under normal circumstances.
Therefore, when he saw that the referee showed him a red card, his whole face changed.
Penalty kick plus red card!
Only nine minutes into the game, as the captain of the team, he was sent off with a red card and gave the opponent a penalty kick!
Thirty-six-year-old veteran Hierro eagerly defended himself to the referee. He did not deny that he committed a foul, but emphasized that the foul was not malicious and was directed at football. Considering the original intention and intention of the foul, a yellow card is enough...
The referee ignored the plea of the former Spanish national team and Real Madrid captain and current Sporting Gijon captain. With a serious expression, he pointed to the sidelines and signaled Hierro to leave the field immediately!
"Only nine minutes into the game, Sporting Gijon's captain and center back Fernando Hierro was sent off by the referee Gomez with a red card for uprooting Baptista in the penalty area, and Seve was also awarded a red card.
A penalty kick for Leia." The commentator D'Agostino looked at Hierro walking to the sidelines with a painful expression on his face and said, "Hierro is indeed old. Thirty-six-year-old Hierro, he is not
No matter how young he is, if he were ten years younger, he might be able to complete a successful defense this time. But, unfortunately, he is old. His thinking and experience are top-notch, but his body reaction is half a beat slower.
The result is - he committed a foul!"
"Hierro was sent off with a red card. The referee Gomez's penalty was a bit too harsh. A yellow card is more appropriate for this foul!" commentator Gonzalez said.
***********
Li Ang, who saw this scene off the court, gritted his teeth. When he saw the referee take out the red card, he jumped angrily. He wanted to curse, but when he turned his head, he saw Hierro's painful expression. Looking at this
The veteran left the field lonely, and Leon's furious mood was actually suppressed. He suddenly felt a little sad. Just as the commentator D'Agostino said, Hierro is old. The Spanish football superstar
, the former Real Madrid captain who raised his arms and cheered at the Bernabeu and lifted the trophy is old. The wind and rain are bleak, and the hero is dying. The saddest thing in life is nothing more than this.
Hierro wanted to say something, but he opened his mouth. He didn't say anything. He was in pain and a little guilty at the same time. He said that the captain of the team was sent off just nine minutes into the game, and at the same time he was left with
Opponent's chance to take a penalty kick.
Li Ang hugged the veteran and patted him on the shoulder.
He said in Hierro's ear, "Don't take it to heart. We have a chance in this game."
However, both Leon and Hierro knew that these were just words of comfort, so how could they not take it to heart. Everyone knew how passive a ten-on-eleven situation was, not to mention that there was one less person fighting not long after the game started.
***********
Baptista was tackled to the ground by Hierro. Li Ang thought that Baptista was going to be injured, even if it was a minor injury, so Hierro's red card could be considered a contribution.
However, he saw that Baptista was not doing anything at all and actually picked up the ball. This was to prepare himself to take the penalty kick.
"This beast." Li Ang cursed bitterly.
'The Beast' is Baptista's nickname. This nickname was given to him by a reporter from Seville after Baptista came to Spain. It soon spread among the fans: When the Brazilian is the first
When Tian arrived in Seville for a physical examination, reporters were amazed by his strong body. Regarding his body, Baptista even emphasized that the muscles are all natural. He had never entered any gym in Brazil before.
When he was interviewed by the Spanish media for the first time, he even wore a Sevilla jersey that was torn apart during the game, stained with sweat and grass blades. This fierce image was published in the newspaper, and the title was "The Beast——"
Baptista".
The penalty kick cannot be changed, Sevilla's penalty kick chance to score.
Baptista placed the football on the penalty spot, then stepped back to prepare for the shot.
At this time, Sporting Gijon people, including Li Ang, still had a certain sense of luck: penalty kicks are not a 100% scoring rate. What if the goalkeeper Valencia performed well and saved the penalty kick? Or maybe it was Barca?
Putista missed the penalty kick himself?!
But Baptista soon burst the Gijonian's fantasy bubble himself.
Referee Gomez's whistle sounded.
After a run-up, Baptista volleyed directly into the lower right corner!
Although Sporting Gijon's goalkeeper Valencia successfully judged the right direction, Baptista's shot was very powerful and the angle was very tricky. Before Valencia's body completely fell to the ground, the football had already passed from his body.
It passed quickly and flew into the net.
***********
"Goooooooooooool!"
"The goal is scored! 1:0! Sevilla, playing at home, leads Sporting Gijon!"
The entire Pizjuan Stadium was like an erupting active volcano. Everyone was roaring excitedly, stamping their feet, and celebrating the goal crazily.
On the field, Sevilla's players were also celebrating the goal crazily, and Baptista even more excitedly took off his clothes to celebrate.
On the sidelines, Sevilla head coach Caparros was also happy to celebrate with his fist. The team was leading 1-0, and the opponent was sent off one man. Sevilla's start could be said to be picturesque.
While the Sevilla people were celebrating excitedly, Li Ang found the fourth official and protested to him about the referee's unfair penalty. Li Ang had no doubts about the penalty kick. What he questioned was the red card penalty. He thought it was a red card.
A yellow card was enough, but the red card was obviously a mistake! The emotional Li Ang almost said what the referee was deliberately targeting his team. Fortunately, he didn't get dizzy at the critical moment and held back the words.
In response to Li Ang's protest, the fourth official warned the Chinese head coach to be careful and not to talk nonsense: the referee's decision was unquestionable and fair and impartial.
Justice, your sister!
Li Ang insisted that the referee was too biased in favor of the home team, or was targeting Sporting Gijon, otherwise a yellow card would normally be enough.
Li Ang returned to the coaching bench angrily. His face was very ugly and his expression was extremely gloomy. The game had only started ten minutes, and the score was 0 to 1, and the number of people was 10 to 11. His team met at the Pizjuan Stadium.
