With a "boom", huge cheers erupted from the stands of the away team fans at the Pizjuan Stadium. About a thousand Sporting Gijon fans came to Seville. At this moment, these more than a thousand people created a
A huge noise!
"It was Franck Ribery who scored the goal! The Frenchman appeared there when he should have appeared most, and he shot the ball smartly after offloading the ball!"
"One to zero! Franck Ribery scores for Sporting Gijon!"
“This was Sporting Gijon’s second shot after the start of the game, and it scored Sevilla’s goal!!”
"With one player less, Sporting Gijon equalized the score! This is surprising!!"
The Sporting Gijon players on the field hugged each other passionately to celebrate the goal. This goal came at the right time. With the numbers at a disadvantage and the scene being equally passive, such a goal would greatly
to boost team morale.
A goal scored in such a passive situation is enough to ignite everyone's confidence and become stronger!
***********
On the sidelines, at the home team's coaching bench, Sevilla coach Caparros was very angry about the conceded goal. He shook his arms vigorously and kept chattering, which he probably didn't mean to say well.
In the visiting team's coaching bench and bench, Vermaelen, who was being briefed by the head coach, excitedly celebrated the goal with a fist pump. He thought his celebration was exciting and exaggerated enough, but then he turned around and saw Li Ang next to him.
He waved his fists vigorously and gritted his teeth to celebrate the goal.
After arriving in Gijon, I heard that the team's head coach is a very passionate coach. Vermaelen was still thinking about how he could be regarded as a "very passionate" evaluation. At this moment, he finally saw it.
While he was happy that the team had equalized the score, Vermaelen suddenly became a little worried. In this case, would the head coach change his mind and not let him play?
"Hey, hey, hey, wake up!" Li Ang looked at Vermaelen who was in a daze and frowned slightly.
"Ah, coach."
"What are you stunned for? Do you remember everything I just said?"
"Ah, remember." Vermaelen nodded subconsciously, and then realized what it meant: Does this mean he still needs to be replaced, and he is going to play?!
Then, the Belgian young man was pushed to the sidelines by Li Ang, who patted him on the shoulder and said, "Boy, don't let me down."
Will not!
I won't let you down, coach!
Vermaelen shouted in his heart, his face turned red, his palms were sweaty, he was nervous and excited.
In the 26th minute of the game, Sporting Gijon made substitution adjustments. 19-year-old Croatian midfielder Modric was replaced, and 19-year-old Belgian center back Thomas Vermaelen came on as a substitute.
Modric was a little frustrated when he was substituted. However, he also knew that this was a passive substitution caused by the sequelae of captain Hierro being sent off. It was not that the head coach was dissatisfied with his performance, but he didn't have much emotion.
Li Ang patted Modric on the shoulder to express comfort.
***********
Li Ang was previously considering whether to replace Ribery or Modric. Now, he finally chose to replace Modric instead of Ribery, mainly because Ribery has speed and is a weapon in counterattacks.
However, replacing Modric, who has certain defensive abilities, means that Li Ang has once again adjusted the team's midfield position.
Albertini's position dropped back and formed a double defensive midfielder with Carlos.
Di Natale's position retreated appropriately, shortening the distance between the midfielder and the backcourt.
Overall, this also means that Sporting Gijon's formation began to shrink and began a defensive counterattack in the true sense.
Li Ang saw it very clearly. The team has now equalized the score, which will have a profound impact on the trend of the game. In the case of ten people fighting, if he can take away one point from the Pizjuan Stadium, this is what he can do
Acceptable result, but, obviously, the Sevillans cannot accept it.
The offensive momentum of Caparros' team is bound to be stronger. All Sporting Gijon can do is to defend well and then find opportunities to counterattack. The home team's offensive momentum will be unprecedentedly powerful, which is why after equalizing the score,
The reason why Li Ang continued to complete substitutions was to let Vermaelen fill the vacancy at center back.
***********
The trend of the game was as expected by Li Ang. After the equalizer, Sevilla coach Caparros strictly ordered the team to launch a more intense offensive. The Sevillaans frequently threatened Sporting Gijon's goal.
In the 29th minute, after receiving a pass from Alves, Baptista forced a breakthrough from the ribs and shot but Valencia saved it.
Subsequently, in their corner kick attack, Navarro's header was slightly higher than the crossbar.
Two minutes later, Ramos assisted again. He received the ball from Renato and then passed the ball. The ball was pushed out of the penalty area by Pepe. Vermaelen failed to get close to Alves at the first time.
, gave the Brazilian time and space to take a long shot, and the football missed the post slightly, shocking the Sporting Gijon people into a cold sweat.
Li Ang was watching from the sidelines, he was dissatisfied with Vermaelen's defense this time.
"He's still too young and inexperienced. He's a little too nervous." Scotre said, although it seemed to be a criticism, it was more like an excuse for Vermaelen. He admired the young Belgian defender and thought that over time, Vermaelen would become a better player.
Mullen will grow into a very good defender. At the same time, Scott Terry also admires Li Ang's vision. A young loan player who was not reused in Ajax was poached by Li Ang's discerning eye.
There is really nothing to say about this vision.
Li Ang nodded noncommittally and said nothing because he saw Pepe roaring at Vermaelen in the stadium.
"Do you want to..." Scoteri asked after seeing this. He was worried that Pepe's approach would be counterproductive and would make Vermaelen even more nervous.
"Let's see and then talk." Li Ang shook his head.
***********
"Asshole, what are you doing? Why didn't you stick it up?" Pepe roared at Vermaelen with a ferocious expression. Judging from his posture, he seemed to want to eat Vermaelen.
"I'm sorry. I'll pay attention next time." Vermaelen was frightened by Pepe's ferociousness, and his face turned a little pale. He apologized and said that he had the awareness that a rookie should have. What's more, he really didn't do a good job here just now.
Defense.
Pepe snorted, said nothing, and walked away. He was very angry about his partner's mistake just now.
A few minutes later, during an attack by Sevilla, Renato caught the ball in front of the penalty area and stopped the ball slightly. Pepe came out directly, without hesitation, even a little fiercely, and kicked the football out with his big foot.
At the same time, he 'accidentally' knocked Renato to the ground, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the Sevilla people. They questioned Pepe for a foul, but the referee Gomez ignored it this time.
"You are so powerful." Vermaelen said to Pepe. He could see that Pepe had deliberately knocked Renato to the ground. If it were him, he might not dare to do this.
That's the edge of the penalty area. It would be terrible if a foul was called.
Hearing Vermaelen's compliment, Pepe smiled widely, and was a little pleased with his new teammate.
"You can do it too!"
"Hold them!"
"Don't give them space!"
"Don't be afraid! Be fierce!"
Pepe shouted to Vermaelen.
Vermaelen lowered his eyebrows and nodded frequently, indicating that he understood. He looked at Pepe with admiration. He was also nineteen years old. This was his first time playing in La Liga. Pepe had already been the main player for half a season.
And he seemed not afraid of anything. He was very calm and experienced. He was really awesome. Vermaelen knew exactly where his shortcomings were. He was inexperienced, nervous, and would panic.
Feeling Vermaelen's admiring gaze, Pepe felt extremely proud. He patted his chest at his 'rookie' partner, "Ferocious! Bold! Decisive! Don't be afraid, I'm here!"
Watching this scene from the sidelines, although he couldn't hear what they said, Li Ang could more or less guess that it was Pepe who was teaching Vermaelen.
Pepe, this 'reckless man', actually likes to be a teacher and is teaching Vermaelen?
The painting style of this scene at this time is really inconsistent. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Li Ang would have never imagined it.
Teacher Peipei...tsk.
