Zhao Yang performed very actively and outstandingly in the pre-match training.
Head coach Pablo was very satisfied with Zhao Yang's performance and put him on the bench.
Zhao Yang was helpless.
If you want to shake the position of the main players, you cannot rely solely on good performance in training.
You have to prove yourself in the competition.
Zhao Yang signed two extraordinary skills, and these two skills made Zhao Yang steal the show in amateur competitions.
But in the professional arena, only two extraordinary skills are obviously not enough.
Now that there might be a chance to play, Zhao Yang's first thought was to quickly improve his strength.
Of course, the fastest way to improve your strength is to sign in.
Zhao Yang has already signed at St. Andrew's Stadium and Camp Nou.
But Zhao Yang never went to sign in at the RCDE Stadium, the home stadium of the Espanyol team.
Zhao Yang felt that it was time to sign in and improve his strength.
The game is at 4 p.m.
Time is enough.
After the training, Zhao Yang did not go home and took a taxi directly to the Espanyol RCDE Stadium.
The RCDE Stadium is located in the Cornea area in the west of Barcelona. The location is slightly remote. It takes about 30 minutes to drive from the St. Andrew Stadium to the RCDE Stadium.
Taking a taxi is a big expense for Zhao Yang.
But as long as you can sign a skill, everything is worth it.
However, when Zhao Yang arrived at the RCDE Stadium, the security guard pointed to the sign and told him that the stadium was under renovation today and would not be open to the public.
Zhao Yang's Spanish was not enough to communicate, so he directly paid 20 euros to the security guard just to go in and take a look.
The security guard didn't know whether he didn't understand what Zhao Yang meant, or he stuck to his principles and still refused to let Zhao Yang in.
Just as Zhao Yang was about to leave in disappointment, several Spaniards walked into the door accompanied by two Asians.
Zhao Yang pointed to the fat Asian man with a big face and glasses and asked the security guard: "Why can they get in?"
The security guard answered something, but Zhao Yang didn't understand it.
The big-faced Asian looked back at Zhao Yang and said in Chinese: "Little brother, do you want to go in and visit the stadium?"
When Zhao Yang heard that he was from China, he thought it was funny and said quickly: "Yes, I am a fan of Espanyol. I came to Barcelona all the way and wanted to go in to watch the visitors, but the security guard refused to let me in."
The big-faced middle-aged man said to the tall and thin Spaniard next to him: "This is a Spanish fan from our country, can he come in and have a look?"
The tall and thin Spaniard said something in Spanish, probably agreeing.
The big-faced Chinese said to Zhao Yang: "Little brother, come in with us."
Just walked into the stadium.
A familiar electronic synthesized sound immediately sounded in Zhao Yang's mind.
(It is detected that the current location of the host meets the check-in conditions...)
(The host can check in today...)
Sure enough, I can sign in.
Zhao Yang quickly muttered in his mind, "System, sign in for me."
next moment.
(Congratulations to the host, you successfully signed in to the rcde stadium and obtained the football skill ‘Falling Leaf Chop’.)
The system prompt sounded in Zhao Yang's mind.
At the same time, something inexplicable appeared in Zhao Yang's mind.
"Falling leaf chop?"
Zhao Yang was extremely surprised.
This is one of Brazilian star Juninho's signature free kicks.
But this is a Spanish stadium, so how could Juninho's free kick skills be signed?
Suddenly, the name of Japanese star Shunsuke Nakamura flashed through his mind, and Zhao Yang seemed to have some realization.
Shunsuke Nakamura played for Espanyol, probably because they are all Asians, so Shunsuke Nakamura’s famous skills were signed here.
No matter what the reason was, I got the ball skills anyway.
What he lacks most now is the skill to score goals. Although it is a free kick skill, Zhao Yang is very satisfied.
After signing the contract, Zhao Yang had no intention of staying at the RCDE Stadium anymore. He looked at it pretentiously and quickly took a taxi back to St. Andrew's Stadium.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, St. Andrew's Stadium opened to allow fans to enter.
Tickets for Spanish Third Division games are very cheap, and it only costs 15 euros to watch a St. Andrew's game.
It's so cheap, but there are still very few fans coming to watch.
Only more than a thousand people came to the stadium that can accommodate 5,000 people.
Among them were one to two hundred Chinese fans.
Chinese people overseas generally don't watch football, and no one cares about this fourth-level event.
There are so many people here today mainly because Zhao Yang has been included in the competition squad.
At four o'clock, the game officially started.
Since their opponent, Atlético Horta, had no desires and little desire to fight, the St. Andrew's team played very comfortably.
Penetration in the middle, flying together on both wings, long passes to attack, and all kinds of tactical routines can be used at will.
Only twenty minutes into the first half, Brazilian forward Santiago scored a header against Atletico Horta.
At the end of the first half, Verano, the core of the team, scored with another long shot, almost sealing the victory.
The score was 2:0, and the opponent was not interested in playing. Zhao Yang thought he could play in the second half.
However, Pablo was very stable and there were no substitutions at halftime.
The St. Andrew's team continued to attack in the second half, hoping to score another goal to completely seal the victory and accumulate more goal difference.
Atlético Horta doesn't pay much attention to victory or defeat, but they can't accept a big defeat.
Losing too much will not only affect morale, but also affect ticket sales for the next game.
Teams like them in the Spanish Third Division have no broadcast revenue and still rely heavily on tickets.
Atlético Horta resisted fiercely, and several counterattacks almost broke through the gate of San Andreu.
In the 65th minute of the game, the St. Andrew's team made substitution adjustments. The Russian Shevary came on and replaced the main midfielder Alan.
This is an alignment adjustment.
Replacing Shevari, who can run and intercept, also means that the St. Andrew's team has accepted the current score and is about to withdraw.
The Chinese fans in the stands waited for more than 60 minutes and were very dissatisfied when they saw that the player was replaced by a Russian.
At this time, there is definitely no hope of turning the tide or becoming famous with one goal.
Now Chinese fans just want to watch their compatriots play football.
"Change Zhao Yang!"
"Change Zhao Yang!"
"Change Zhao Yang!"
…
An impulsive foreign student took the lead, and then all the Chinese fans began to chant, putting pressure on the coach.
If a goal is needed, it is certainly better to replace Zhao Yang than Shevary.
Now that Pablo no longer wants to attack, Zhao Yang, who is strong in attack and weak in defense, will definitely have many variables.
Pablo pretended not to hear the shouts of the Chinese fans and kept his head down while writing in his notebook.
Zhao Yang was more anxious than the fans. For this game, he went to the RCDE Stadium to sign a football skill.
The game has lasted more than seventy minutes now, and he hasn't even touched the turf of the court.
Did the coach forget about me?
what do I do?
Sit back and wait, or take the initiative?
"Zhao, you go warm up and get ready to play."
Just when Zhao Yang was thinking wildly, Pablo finally called his name.
