Cadiz is worthy of being a team with a century-old history. It has deep football knowledge and was not impatient when conceding the ball in the opening game. It still played calmly.
Cadiz is not busy, and St. Andrew's is even less busy.
With an away goal in hand, the opponent needs to score two goals to advance.
Time is on St. Andrew's side, they just need to maintain the status quo.
Cadiz did not panic because they had stronger self-control than the St. Andrew team and could take advantage in the stalemate.
The Cadiz team had the right idea. In the 10th minute of the game, they took the lead in creating a chance.
Midfielder Mantecon passed the ball through the defender to striker Kike.
Kike made a fake move to break into the penalty area, deceiving the St. Andrew's defender, and then took a sideways step to pass the ball.
Kick directly and hit the door.
The ball flew straight to the left side of the goal like a cannonball.
The striker takes off without interference at the front of the penalty area, posing a great threat to the goalkeeper.
Fortunately, the angle of the ball was quite right. St. Andrew's goalkeeper made a flying dive and barely hit the ball over the baseline.
Corner kick!
Mantecon kicked a low ball, which was cleared by a player from the St. Andrew's team at the front point, defusing the attack.
Then the two sides struggled in the midfield, and it was difficult for anyone to attack the opponent's penalty area.
In the 25th minute of the game, luck was on Cadiz's side.
Cadiz forward Lopez crossed from the wing and the St. Andrew's defender jumped up without interference, and the ball flew to the back of the goal.
Cadiz winger Colorado stepped in at high speed and headed the ball into the net from the near post.
1:1
Cadiz equalized the score.
Colorado, who scored the goal, took off his jersey in excitement, waved it, and ran towards the stands like crazy.
Cadiz's players were equally excited to follow Colorado, as if they had already advanced.
Pablo, the head coach of the St. Andrew's team, looked a little ugly.
Goals are not unacceptable.
Cadiz is also an old and powerful team, and it is very difficult to keep them clean in the away game.
But you can't lose the ball like this.
The top attack is very amateurish. Pablo doesn't know what the defender is thinking. He previously gave his opponent a chance to shoot from a long distance. This time he has the top shot again. If he continues to make low-level mistakes, it will be difficult for the St. Andrew's team to advance.
After the celebration, the game started again.
St. Andrew's team still has the advantage based on away goals, but there is only one goal difference. As long as the opponent scores another goal, they will be eliminated.
The situation suddenly became tense.
Everyone wanted to score a goal, and no one wanted to concede the ball, so the two sides started a hand-to-hand battle in the midfield.
Playing in the midfield, Zhao Yang's passing skills were fully utilized.
Fried meatballs, Cruyff turned around and passed through.
When there was no goal scored, Zhao Yang received warm cheers and applause from the stands every time he made a pass.
However, Zhao Yang was also miserable. Every time he passed someone, he would be knocked down. The fans of the St. Andrew's team watched with fear, fearing that Zhao Yang would never stand up again.
Tang Duo and Li Hui also forgot their identities as commentators and stood up and led the fans to put pressure on the referee.
"Yellow card yellow card!"
"Take out the cards! Take out the cards!"
…
The referee's penalty today was very lenient. Even if the St. Andrew's fans shouted again, he would still only call a foul and not take out the card.
Seeing that the players of the Cadiz team were making more and more moves against Zhao Yang, but the referee never took out his cards, the head coach Pablo couldn't stand it anymore and rushed to the sidelines and yelled at the referee.
"People are almost kicked to death! Don't you see?"
"Did you forget to bring your card?"
…
As Pablo continued to talk trash, the referee thought of taking out the card, but gave it to Pablo.
Pablo's yellow card also got some rewards, and then the referee finally took out the yellow card to the Cadiz player.
This put some pressure on Cadiz's players, who no longer dared to act unscrupulously.
In the 40th minute of the game, the St. Andrew's team's patience finally paid off.
Zhao Yang cooperated with Verano and Santiago. Zhao Yang rushed into the 30-meter area and passed the midfielder Diogu through his crotch. When he wanted to use fried meatballs to pass the defender, he was pulled down from behind by Diogu.
The referee showed Diogu a yellow card and gave St. Andrew's a direct free kick.
This free kick is in a good position, only 25 meters away from the goal.
This is Zhao Yang's best shooting range.
Cadiz goalkeeper Abeto was very nervous. He had heard that Zhao Yang was very good at falling leaves and had seen it in the video. It was indeed accurate.
Abeto called almost all his teammates over and formed a very thick wall, leaving no chance for Zhao Yang.
Verano came over to discuss with Zhao Yang, saying that Abeto is an excellent goalkeeper and the wall is so thick, so it is better to make a tactic and pass the ball.
Zhao Yang shook his head and said that he could make a fake move to distract the goalkeeper, but he had to hit the goal directly.
The referee blew the whistle and Verano ran over the ball.
Goalkeeper Abeto did not move.
Zhao Yang ran up to catch up and hit the ball with one kick.
The ball roared, rose up from the ground, and flew straight towards the wall.
The wall jumped, but it was unable to block the ball.
Look at the flight trajectory of the ball, it will fly over the crossbar.
Goalkeeper Abeto did not dare to be careless, and still flew over as fast as possible.
This action is subconscious.
After making it, Abeto remembered that it might be a fallen leaf ball.
really
Abeto made a half save, and the ball dropped sharply and went straight to the lower left corner of the goal.
Abeto wished he could fall with a thousand pounds, but now, he could only watch the ball flying into the net in mid-air.
2:1
Zhao Yang once again gave St. Andrew's team the lead with a kick.
This goal broke the deadlock and was crucial. It was the goal that almost sealed the promotion spot.
After scoring the goal, Zhao Yang excitedly lifted his jersey, covered his head, and rushed to the sideline.
The players of the St. Andrew's team also ran to the sideline with Zhao Yang. Everyone hugged each other and cheered in celebration.
The moment the goal was scored, the home team fans in the stands were stunned and stunned.
But the fans of the away team were mentally prepared for a long time. When the goal was scored, they all cheered and shouted: "Zhao Yang, Zhao Yang, Zhao Yang..."
Tang Duo and Li Hui once again returned to their roles as commentators, shouting loudly: "A beautiful free kick! Falling leaf chop! Zhao Yang's special skill! Penetrate the Yang with a hundred steps! Every shot is flawless! Today he made another achievement and broke through the best in West C.
Goalkeeper Abate’s gate.”
"This is a goal that may determine the promotion quota. Zhao Yang withstood the pressure and made the penalty! This is not only a victory of technology, but also a victory of will."
"A star is rising in La Liga. We have reason to believe that Zhao Yang's future is definitely not in La Liga. I believe it is not in La Liga. His future should be in La Liga. There has never been a Chinese star in La Liga's top competition.
The shadow of the Chinese people, I hope Zhao Yang will be the first."
