Li Ang roared angrily, and the fourth official looked gloomy and asked the Sporting Gijon coach to control his temper.
Banderas dragged Li Ang back to his coaching bench. He was worried that if he delayed for a while, the referee would come and take out the cards.
"Coach Li Ang is very angry. I think he has the urge to go on the court and hit people." D'Agostino said, "However, he does have reasons to be angry."
"The referee Depay's enforcement of this game may become the focus of discussion after the game." Gonzalez said, "I even doubt whether what we are watching is free fighting."
Sporting Gijon encountered extremely stubborn resistance from the Albacetes from the beginning of the game.
Albacete head coach Jose Gonzalez's tactics today were very clear. They used their excellent physical fitness to run all over the field and intercept the football at the feet of Sporting Gijon players from the frontcourt. Commentator D'Agostino In other words, Albacchet was like clockwork, and the game went crazy from the beginning.
The Sporting Gijon players were obviously not prepared for Albacete's desperate style of play. Faced with this crazy pressing, they looked embarrassed and made more mistakes.
***********
If the opponent's crazy pressing tactics belong to the category of tactics, and Sporting Gijon themselves were not well prepared for it and had nothing to say, then Albacete's foul tactics made Leon furious.
Albacchet played very dirty. As long as Sporting Gijon's players got the ball, especially those threatening players such as Ribery, Mata, Di Natale, Benzema and others who were on the blacklist, they He would 'focus on taking care of' him, kicking his ankles, bumping his thighs, kicking his heels, secretly pushing his elbows when fighting for headers, pulling his jersey... and so on and so on.
Faced with these small moves and fouls by Albacchet, if the referee stopped them in time, maybe the game would return to normal.
However, the performance of the referee aroused the anger of the Gijon people. Faced with the constant fouls of the Albacete players, the referee's whistle kept sounding. However, more often than not, he only verbally warned the fouling Albacete players. , playing cards is quite stingy.
The referee's frequent whistles did not mean to play cards, which to a certain extent encouraged the crazy Albachetes. Even if the referee played cards, they did not care. In order to avoid relegation, all their players It's crazy, not to mention that the referee's enforcement standards today were so weak.
Players such as Mata and Ribery fell to the ground again and again and got up again and again. They protested and complained to the referee. The referee Depay always smiled and asked the Sporting Gijon players to calm down, and then He turned around and verbally warned Albacchet's players that unless the opponent's foul action was too bad, he would never take out the card: What is a foul action that is too bad? I'm afraid in the eyes of the referee, only shoveling someone from behind is possible. Such obvious behavior is enough to qualify as a card draw.
***********
Li Ang was extremely dissatisfied with the referee's enforcement standards. In his opinion, even if it was a verbal warning, three verbal warnings should be exchanged for a yellow card. However, under the referee's enforcement, Albache Special defensive midfielder Viaud committed five fouls on Franck Ribery today, but the referee just didn't have the intention to take the card.
At the end of the first half, the score was zero to zero.
During the halftime break, the Gijon local commentator nodded and said sarcastically, "Did the Spanish referee committee do something wrong again and limit the maximum number of cards to the referee? Otherwise, why would Mr. Depay be so stingy?"
The cards inside.
In the locker room, Sporting Gijon assistant coach Banderas said angrily that the Albacetes were too shameless. They took advantage of the referee's enforcement standards and were very lenient and inactive, and fouls became more and more unscrupulous.
.
Li Ang's face was gloomy, and his players' performance was average. There were not a few truly threatening shots in the entire first half of the game. However, at this point in the game, the players' performance was not good, which can be said to be a non-combat crime.
Although Li Ang was angry, he was also helpless. The referee's inaction in law enforcement and the opponent's targeted tactical arrangements formed a perfect combination. Unless he had a way to turn the referee into a card-playing maniac, otherwise, it would be impossible.
As you can imagine, in the second half of the game the Albachetes would only get worse.
"I know we're in trouble right now."
"The opponent's brutal tactics and the referee's inaction made our situation worse."
"But remember, we are Sporting Gijon who defeated Barcelona at the Nou Camp, and we are Sporting Gijon who took away the great victory from the Bernabeu Stadium!" Li Ang's firm words were heard in the ears of the players.
Their moods, which had become impetuous due to anger, calmed down.
The memories of the Camp Nou and the Bernabeu echoed in their minds. They were so proud and cheered for victory.
"Now, on our own territory, can one Arbachet stop our progress?"
cannot!
"I know we are encountering difficulties now, but this is the last darkness before dawn. As long as we firmly believe that victory must belong to us, we will try our best to kick off this stumbling block! We will find that the future is bright!"
"A goal! All it takes is one goal and the Albacetes will collapse!" Liang raised a finger. He knew the psychology of a relegation team like Albacete. The opponent must hold on to the draw.
, A point is a point. Of course, if they can succeed in a sneak attack, they will make money. Anyway, if they don't concede a goal, Albacchet's belief in resistance will be strengthened. However, once Sporting Gijon scores a goal,
There will be cracks or even collapse in the Arbachet people's resistance!
***********
Sporting Gijon, whose fighting spirit was once again inspired by Li Ang's words, suffered a heavy blow at the beginning of the second half.
Mata fell to the ground after being violated by the opponent's defender Agus and was unable to continue the game.
Leon could only replace Mata with Javier Blanco.
Then, in the 69th minute of the game, Albacchet took advantage of a set kick in the frontcourt and their center back Agus scored with a header.
Zero to one!
The whole match was spent competing with the legs of Sporting Gijon players, thinking about how to foul and trying their best to avoid conceding the ball. The Albaccetes scored on their second shot opportunity in the match!
This conceded goal is a big blow to Sporting Gijon.
The score is behind, which means that if Sporting Gijon wants to win and achieve its goal of reaching the top spot in the league, it must score at least two goals without conceding any more goals!
Not long after Albacchet scored, another accident occurred on the field.
Benzema was tackled to the ground by the opponent's defender Gaspar. The referee finally showed Gaspar a yellow card. However, this obviously did not satisfy the Gijon people because after Benzema was repeatedly violated and fell to the ground, this time
Finally, I was injured and couldn't continue playing.
Benzema's injury made Li Ang angry. This is why commentator D'Agostino said that Li Ang was so angry that he had the urge to go on the court and hit people.
***********
As D'Agostino said, Liang really has the urge to go on the court and hit people. Benzema's injury has a great impact on Sporting Gijon because Liang has no one to replace him.
Sporting Gijon's bench depth is already insufficient. Diego Milito has just recovered from injury and has only participated in the team's joint training. He has not yet met the requirements for playing games. Therefore, he was not included in the game squad today, and veteran Gueye
Sa has accumulated yellow cards and been suspended. Now, Sporting Gijon has only McGuor Pihra as a forward option on the bench.
Li Ang could only ask Scottri to notify McGuer Pihra to warm up.
Watching the 17-year-old Benzema being helped off the field, and watching the 36-year-old veteran McGuer Pihra warming up.
The game has gone on for seventy-six minutes, and his team is trailing 1-0.
Li Ang has a kind of hopeless resentment!
However, he must control his emotions and not let anyone see his helplessness and frustration. He is the head coach of this team and the backbone and soul of this team.
No matter when, no matter how bad the situation is, he must let everyone see his confidence and let everyone see that hope is still there!
McGur Pihra came back after a brief warm-up.
"McGuer." Li Ang looked into the veteran's eyes and said, "The team needs you now!"
***********
Magul Pihra clenched his fists, he was always ready.
He is always ready! The time spent sitting on the bench has not dampened his fighting spirit. He knows that his strength is insufficient, and he knows that his chances of playing are getting fewer and fewer. This will not make him slack off, it will only make him train harder.
, working harder, he knows that he must always be prepared to meet that extremely precious opportunity to play that may not even come.
Every day at the Malayo training base, every day at the El Molinon Stadium, every time he breathes the air here, it makes him satisfied and excited. He loves this place and his team.
He would also like to thank head coach Li Ang for his kindness, which allowed him, who had wasted half his life, to have the opportunity to contribute to his favorite team in the last days of his career.
At this moment, in the most critical moment of the team, in the most difficult moment, he heard the coach say to him, "The team needs him now." The 36-year-old veteran who has rarely played this season, heard this
, his eyes seemed to glow brightly, and even the wrinkles on his face seemed to be blown away by the spring breeze.
PS: Everyone has been waiting for a long time, and here comes the update. I stayed up late coding in the study without telling my family. My family was worried about my health, so they didn’t allow me to stay up late. I just stopped publishing this chapter. I feel guilty for everyone, and I promised to do it after May Day.
