The worries of Santa Malaga soon became reality. In the 13th minute, Levante took advantage of the gap between the two central defenders of Santa Malaga and played a cross pass straight into the one-two.
Farinos made a direct push in the penalty area, and the football passed through Miguel's right side and flew into the net!
One to zero!
Farinos did not celebrate, but picked up the football from the net and ran to the center circle.
Santa Malaga were still immersed in the pain of conceding a goal, and Levante immediately gave them another blow.
In the 15th minute of the first half, Levante launched a quick counterattack from the backcourt and reached the penalty area after three quick passes of the football.
Center forward Bardo threw away Zucculini and fired a powerful shot from the penalty area line. The football once again penetrated the goal guarded by Miguel!
Two to zero!
In just two minutes, Santa Malaga conceded two goals in a row!
Levante's morale was boosted and the game restarted. Amid the huge cheers from the home fans, they immediately stole the football at their feet and launched a quick counterattack again.
Faced with Pablo's tight defense, core midfielder Farinos made a clever back-heel pass and then immediately moved forward.
Xavi Torres received the ball and passed the ball straight to Pedro Lopez on the line of the penalty area.
"Snapped!……"
Pedro Lopez made a cross pass without stopping the ball, and the ball flew forward to Farinos.
Farinos quickly directed the football to his right, followed by a kick!
The football drew a wonderful arc in the air, flew past the fingertips of the leaping MiG, and finally flew into the goal from the upper right corner of the goal!
Three to zero!
The Valencia TV commentator shouted excitedly: "Farinos! Farinos! Farinos! Scored twice!
Three to zero!
Levante is only one goal away from equalizing the score!
Five minutes, three goals!
Levante is back!
The Levante we are familiar with is back!"
The Malaga TV commentator shook his head and said: "Obviously, as a D-level team, Santa Malaga's bench depth is really not enough. After center back Baris Addo left the field with an unexpected injury, their defense showed signs of failure.
Big problem!
Conceding three goals in just five minutes, Santa Malaga will be in trouble tonight!"
The Santa Malaga bench was eerily silent, and Li Chuanqi's heart was in a knot. He just wished he couldn't play.
There was panic in Antonio's eyes, but Juan on the side showed a rare calmness. He patted Antonio on the shoulder and said: "The most important thing now is to boost morale!"
Antonio looked at him deeply, then quickly walked to the command area and shouted loudly to his helpless players, telling them to relax.
Pablo also started to encourage his teammates on the court: "It's okay! It's okay! Cheer up! We are still in the lead!"
Encouraged by the coach and captain, the confusion in the players' eyes was replaced by perseverance.
In the next game, Santa Malaga resisted tenaciously and started a fierce battle with Levante in their own half.
Under the active pressing of Santa Malaga, Levante's offense was no longer sharp and could only move the football to the backcourt.
Here we go again!
Antonio stopped the midfielders who wanted to press forward and made them stick to the back.
The football field is a place for a battle of wits and courage.
Seeing that Santa Malaga did not press forward, Levante had to move the football to the frontcourt again to start the attack.
In the 31st minute of the first half, Santa Malaga got a chance to counterattack quickly, and Pablo made a long pass!
Liage turned around and ran towards the first place where the football landed.
However, Liage is not Li Chuanqi, and he failed to surpass Del Horno and control the football at his feet.
Del Horno pushed the ball over the sideline with a header, which defused Santa Malaga's quick counterattack.
The Malaga TV commentator sighed: "If the young player Li is on the court, this quick counterattack may be successful!"
Two minutes later, the Malaga TV commentator once again lamented: "St. Malaga once again missed the opportunity. Pablo's diagonal pass was very clever, but Zhar, who replaced Li as the right winger, failed in the end.
Can control football!"
After getting the football from Levante's left side on the field, Juanfran felt more relaxed. Fortunately, the person just now was not that little guy.
If it were that little guy, it would only take two steps to leave me behind, and then form a single sword!
Having stabilized their position, Santa Malaga's defense is no longer weak, but their offensive performance is mediocre. Without the fast horse of Li Chuanqi, they cannot execute many tactics.
In the 42nd minute of the first half, Levante got a direct free kick outside the penalty area.
Xavi Torres's free kick went around the wall and went straight to the upper right corner of the goal!
"Pong!..."
With a loud noise, the football hit the intersection of the crossbar and the uprights and popped out of the bottom line!
"boom!……"
There was a huge cry of regret in the stadium, followed by thunderous applause.
Santa Maraga broke out in a cold sweat.
The commentator of Valencia TV loudly said: "Xavi Torres's free kick was rejected by the goal frame, and Levante almost equalized the total score before the end of the first half!"
In the following game, Santa Malaga united as one and stubbornly withstood Levante's bombardment, and did not let Levante break their goal again.
After two minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, and Santa Malaca breathed a sigh of relief.
The Malaga TV commentator said worriedly: "The first half is over, Levante leads 3-0 with the advantage of home court, and is only one goal away from equalizing the score!
Santa Malaga...the situation is very bad. Due to Lee's absence due to injury, Santa Malaga's quick counterattack lacks the sharpness of the past. Due to the accidental injury of center back Barris Addo, Santa Malaga's back line
Prevent continuous errors.
If this continues, if Santa Malaga wants to advance...it will be difficult! Difficult! Difficult!"
He mentioned three "difficulties" in a row, which shows that he really doesn't think highly of Santa Malaga.
The Valencia TV commentator said with high spirits: "Levante's state has completely recovered tonight. Without the blessing of the goddess of credibility, Santa Malaga is just a very ordinary D-level team!
Three to zero, Levante only needs one ball to equalize the score!
In the second half, as long as they can maintain the same state as the first half, it is only a matter of time before they overtake the score!
The miracle of Santa Malaga ends tonight!”
The reporters on the sidelines were talking a lot:
"It's really a bad night in Santa Malaga!"
"Levante's recovery is really impressive!"
"Of course, they are the team that defeated Real Madrid at home. They are the team that has occupied the top spot for two rounds. Although the hole they dug is a bit big, they have the ability to fill it!"
"A D-level team is a D-level team. Without two core strengths, it has declined like this..."
