As the referee blew his whistle, the second half of the game began.
Liag moved the football to the backcourt, and Athletic Bilbao immediately pressed the ball in the frontcourt.
The atmosphere on the court immediately became tense.
In the stands, supporters of both sides cheered one after another.
The battle has begun on and off the field!
In the third minute of the second half, Athletic Bilbao completed a steal in the backcourt and immediately launched an attack.
Under the command of captain Pablo, Santa Malaga fought and retreated, and finally formed a solid defense line at the front of the penalty area, forcing Athletic Bilbao to switch to a positional battle.
From the scene, Athletic Bilbao doesn't look like they are fighting with one person missing.
In the sixth minute of the second half, Athletic Bilbao attempted to launch an attack from the left. Santa Malaga significantly strengthened the defensive strength on this side and did not give the opponent a chance to break the defense.
Athletic Bilbao appeared to be very patient, passing the football back to the back line and preparing to reorganize the attack.
However, at this moment, an accident happened.
A strong premonition came to Li Chuanqi again. He predicted the opponent's passing route in advance and intercepted the football halfway.
Athletic Bilbao's left-back Illaura immediately stepped forward to press him, not giving him a chance to turn around!
What should I do if I can't turn around when holding the ball behind my back?
Li Chuanqi made a cross kick, then immediately turned around and pushed forward!
Liage in the middle did not stop the ball, but took a step forward and passed the ball directly over the head.
He hoped that Li Chuanqi would take advantage of his speed and get a chance to shoot!
The football flew toward the right front of the front court, and a speed competition began.
Li Chuanqi and Amorebieta were like two bolts of lightning, heading towards the spot where the football landed.
"plum!……"
"plum!……"
"plum!……"
The cheers from the Santa Malaga supporters rang out just right.
On the court, the two people are getting closer and closer to the football.
No one grabbed the first point, the football fell on the turf and then bounced up.
"pass!……"
Lyage's voice came from the middle.
Li Chuanqi jumped up, stretched out his right foot, and pushed the football to the left with the inside of his foot!
The football changed direction and flew toward the center.
Liag, who was running at high speed, quickly adjusted his steps, leaned on Athletic Bilbao's right back Ekisa, raised his chest, and unloaded the football.
Then move forward at high speed with the football!
Ekisa seized the opportunity and lowered his center of gravity. He wanted to tackle and destroy!
The next moment, he scooped the football with his right foot, and then knocked Liag down.
"coax!……"
Huge shouts rang out from the stands, and then the whole place resounded: "Foul! Foul! Foul!"
The moment Ekisa fell to the ground, he yelled at the referee: "No foul! No foul!"
The referee put the whistle in his mouth and quickly glanced at the assistant referee. Seeing that he had no indication, he did not blow the whistle.
The Athletic Bilbao TV commentator exclaimed: "This is a very beautiful tackle!"
Li Chuanqi, who was following up from the right, did not stop because of the "foul" sound from the stands.
The game is in progress even if the whistle doesn't sound.
This is the basic quality of a player.
Also not stopping was Amorebieta, who was one position behind Li Chuanqi.
This position is fatal.
The distance between him and the young figure in front of him is getting wider and wider!
However, he still didn't give up.
Athletic Bilbao goalkeeper Iraisos sensed the crisis immediately and quickly ran out of the penalty area to make a big save.
Li Chuanqi changed from competing for speed with Amorebieta to competing with goalkeeper Irasos.
When it comes to speed competition, Li Chuanqi has extremely strong self-confidence, and he is getting faster and faster!
Li Xiaofeng and Yaisa in the stands clenched their fists nervously, gritted their teeth, and looked ferocious.
It was as if they were charging.
On the court, Li Chuanqi and Iraisos are getting closer and closer to football.
Irasos suddenly dropped his center of gravity, and he wanted to tackle and destroy it!
Li Chuanqi stretched out his left foot like lightning, pointed the toe towards the football, and thrust forward.
The football suddenly accelerated and rolled past the toes of Elisos!
The moment Li Chuanqi's left foot landed on the ground, the sole of his foot suddenly kicked the ground hard.
Like an eagle spreading its wings, it flies!
But his left foot still touched the leg of Elisos, who was coming quickly.
Li Chuanqi, who lost his center of gravity slightly, staggered after landing!
The referee, who was running quickly, put his whistle to his mouth again. As soon as Li Chuanqi fell to the ground, he would blow the whistle.
This time the Santa Malaga supporters didn't shout "Foul!" because the boy hadn't fallen yet.
They are afraid that their shouts will "mislead" the referee.
What if a beautiful goal is killed because of this?
Li Chuanqi, who was stumbling, quickly adjusted his center of gravity.
Just as he was adjusting his center of gravity, Amorebieta leaped over Irasos and ran towards the gap between Li Chuanqi and the goal.
The air in the Calderon Stadium became increasingly suffocating.
Li Xiaofeng and Yaissa clenched their fists tighter, and the expressions on their faces changed from ferocious to eager.
"Why doesn't your brother fall down?"
Yaissa knows football, she asked.
Li Xiaofeng said angrily: "Why do you have to fall down? If you fall down, you will be beaten. This is what my father said. You must not fall down during a fight!"
"This is not a fight, this is a football match..."
Yaissa was even more confused.
Li Xianqi on the side pursed his lips in embarrassment, how should he reply to this.
"It's all the same! If you don't understand, don't speak!"
Li Xiaofeng told Yaisa to shut up. Why is there so much nonsense at the critical moment?
Li Chuanqi finally stabilized his center of gravity, but when he was about to shoot directly, he found that Amorebieta had blocked the shooting route!
Extend your left foot to control the football.
Li Chuanqi stopped.
Amorebieta immediately approached Li Chuanqi!
At this moment, Li Chuanqi inserted his left foot under the football and then raised it!
The next moment, the football flew over Amorebieta's head and fell towards the empty goal!
The Malaga TV commentator shouted: "Shoot?!!!"
"ball……"
Amorebieta stared blankly at the football flying over his head. Damn it, why didn't he play according to the routine?
Goalkeeper Iraisos stood up again from the turf and ran towards the goal.
After Li Chuanqi's shot, he jumped up in despair.
The air in Calderon seemed to have suddenly stopped flowing.
A moment ago, the Malaga TV commentator wanted to shout "The ball is in!", but Irassos stopped him from shouting.
In a flash of lightning, Irasos' left hand touched the football!
But he failed to intercept the football. After the football touched his hands, he slightly changed direction and continued forward, falling into the goal!
When the football flew into the goal, the Calderon Stadium, which had been as silent as night a moment before, was instantly exploded. Hysterical cheers, howls, and applause resounded throughout the entire stadium.
The loud sound even suppressed the referee's whistle for the goal to be valid.
Li Chuanqi opened his arms and flew on the court. He was like a leading goose, followed closely by his teammates...
Elisos buried his head on the turf, and Amorebieta knelt on the turf, looking at the sky with blank eyes...
The Malaga TV commentator shouted excitedly: "The ball is in! It's in! It's in! It's in!..."
This time he could finally scream freely.
"Scored twice! Li Zai continues to write his own legend!"
"Saint Malaga is still forty minutes away from completing this unprecedented feat!"
"This is a miraculous night!"
The Athletic Bilbao TV commentator shook his head and said: "Amorebieta worked hard, Irassos also worked hard, but... still couldn't stop young player Li's goal..."
"Two goals behind... Athletic Bilbao is under huge pressure, but there are about forty minutes left before the end of the game. Athletic Bilbao still has a chance! I hope they don't give up!"
On the court, Li Chuanqi led his teammates to the command area and embraced passionately with Antonio and the substitute players there.
With two balls in hand, Antonio yelled at the players: "Defend! Defend with all your strength!"
Everyone nodded.
"Li stays in front, Liag, you also go back to help defend!"
Liage did not show any dissatisfaction and nodded in agreement.
Under the urging of the referee, the Santa Malaga players returned to the field. The game is not over yet, and they will definitely face a crazy counterattack from the opponent.
After the game restarted, Athletic Bilbao regrouped and launched a fierce attack on Santa Malaga.
Santa Malaga strategically gave up part of the space and accumulated heavy troops inside and outside the penalty area.
Facing the intensive defense of Santa Malaga, Athletic Bilbao frequently launched attacks from both sides and passed the football into the penalty area.
But there are too many people in the penalty area. Even if the players lurking in the penalty area get the football, they will not have the space and time to complete the shot.
Athletic Bilbao had to adjust its tactics and attack from the center.
This time they encountered greater resistance.
"Long shot!"
Damn it, long shots and set pieces are the best weapons to break dense defenses.
some disgruntled Athletic Bilbao fans roared.
In the 23rd minute of the second half, Suseta took a long shot from outside the penalty area and the football went over the crossbar!
Five minutes later, De Marcos took a long shot from deep inside the Santa Malaga half, and the football was dragged off the crossbar by Miguel!
Athletic Bilbao tried to blast open the gate guarded by MiG with a long shot, but they failed to do so.
If long-range shots don't work, then use set kicks.
In the 33rd minute of the second half, Athletic Bilbao received an excellent free kick in the frontcourt.
Suceta shot directly, and the football drew a wonderful arc, flew over the right side of the front and went straight to the upper right corner of the goal!
The scene that made Athletic Bilbao desperate appeared again, the football flew from the goal post and flew out of the bottom line!
"coax!……"
The Calderon Stadium once again sounded the painful regrets of Athletic Bilbao fans. They once again missed a good opportunity to score.
They firmly believe that Lady Luck is really on each other's side.
In the 37th minute of the second half, Athletic Bilbao once again got a corner kick opportunity.
The Bilbao TV commentator said in a deep voice: "This is the eleventh corner kick for Athletic Bilbao in this game. I hope they can seize this opportunity..."
Miguel, who was standing on the goal line, loudly ordered his teammates while pushing away Muniain who was stuck in front of him.
Bilbao full-back Ekisa sent the football directly into the penalty area.
There was chaos in the Santa Malaga penalty area. Some people were pushing, some were pulling, and some were stepping on each other's feet...
Llorente and Barris Addo next to him jumped up high almost at the same time. The football hit the Athletic Bilbao center forward hard on the forehead, and instantly changed direction and blasted towards the goal!
Like a battering ram, Llorente's head hit the football hard!
This time Lady Luck seemed to have taken a nap, as the football flew past Miguel's left side, crossed the goal line, and hit the net.
"The ball is in! It's in! It's in! It's in!..."
The Bilbao TV commentator yelled: "Llorente! He scored the goal with a header! Let Athletic Bilbao see hope!"
"Come on! Athletic Bilbao! You still have time!"
The Malaga TV commentator said regretfully: "This is a beautiful goal. Llorente's header brought suspense back to the court. I hope this goal will not affect Santa Malaga."
Llorente, the hero of the goal, did not celebrate. He picked up the football from the net and called on his teammates to return to his half.
The morale of Athletic Bilbao was greatly boosted, and the supporters in the stands cheered like thunder.
