Chapter 474: Silver Fox
Vermaelen was clearly impressed by Pepe's super long-range goal, and there were plenty of compliments on the way to the pitch in the players' tunnels. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"It was a brilliant goal, and a lot of top attacking players probably can't score a goal like that. Vermaelen looked envious, he was a little annoyed and regretful at the same time, when the corner kick went into the penalty area, there was chaos in the Sevilla penalty area, he also got a header opportunity at that time, but unfortunately he was not prepared enough, the header did not have the power, otherwise he would have scored the goal.
'I'm telling you, I could have been a great midfielder. Pepe held his head high, "It's a pity that when I was in Brazil, the coach arranged for me to play as a defender, and I have been playing until now." ”
"Then you can switch to midfield now. "Vermaelen felt sorry for Pepe.
"Ahem, ahem, get used to it. Pepe didn't expect to believe what he said, and felt a little embarrassed.
"I don't have a midfield talent in my squad. Leon's voice suddenly came, and Pepe almost jumped in fright.
'Chief, my dream is to be a great centre-back. Pepe said solemnly.
Vermaelen looked at Pepe with a shocked expression, the honest Belgian youth probably never thought that a person's face could become so fast.
"Fuck off. Leon kicked Pepe in the face, "If you let the Sevillans score in the second half, I want you to look good." ”
After watching Pepe pat his chest and reassure him, he ran away with Vermaelen, Leon snorted, "This bastard." ”
In fact, looking at the smile on his face, it shows how much he loves this player.
***********
Conceding a goal in the final moments of the first half had a huge impact on Sevilla.
Playing at home, with a numerical advantage and a direct opponent in the top four, these are all reasons why Sevilla must win the game.
At the start of the second half, Sevilla tried to hit the Sporting Gijón goal in the hope of equalising, but did not expect to suffer a blow.
For the second half of the game, Leon's designated tactic was to defend and counterattack, and in terms of the specific details of the tactics, Leon decided to make a fuss about the high-altitude ball, using Grosso's height and header advantage to cause trouble for Sevilla, so he asked that when counterattacking, Grosso should insert into the penalty area in time to grab a header.
He did it!
Grosso jumped high...... Header!!"
Di Natale dribbled to the perimeter this time, dribbled a shot and fired a high ball into the box, and when Grosso jumped to the ground, there was no one around him who could compete with him in height. Di Natale's cross was also very comfortable, and the 190cm tall Italian left-back didn't even need to adjust his posture, he only needed to tilt his head slightly in the air and then swing his power!
Sevilla goalkeeper Esteban still reacted at such a close distance, which was already quite good, he pounced sideways, but unfortunately it was still a step too late, when he pounced, the football had already smashed over, and the Sevilla goalkeeper, who was still in the air, could only watch the football into the goal......
***********
“Goooooooooooooooooooooooooool!”
"Three to one! Three to one! A counter-attack from Sporting Gijón was another sneak attack, a goal from the tall left-back Grosso, who had enough height advantage in the Sevilla penalty area!"
"Sporting Gijón scored another goal in the 51st minute! It was their first attack since the start of the second half, their first shot on goal! they extended their lead! Sevilla got a heavy blow!"
As the commentator said, Grosso's goal really knocked the Sevilla players very confused. After the start of the second half, they didn't threaten the Sporting Gijón goal with two shots in a row, and then the opponent won with a counterattack? They didn't expect to concede so quickly in the second half, which was definitely not part of their tactical arrangement.
At half-time, Sevilla coach Caparos made a big phone call and all the arrangements he made revolved around them scoring goals, equalising and then reversing the score, and they didn't even expect to concede again......
In a sense, the Sevillans have no plan to concede goals again!
***********
Grosso, who scored the header, was excited, the Italian left-back ran to the sidelines, hugged Leon tightly, he wanted to thank the coach, it was Leon who arranged him, asked him to participate in the attack more in the second half of the game, play the header advantage, and he scored, the coach was really powerful, too powerful, Grosso admired.
Another reason why Grosso was so excited was that in the stands of the Estadio Pizjuan, a silver-haired Italian man was standing up to applaud the goal.
The head coach of the Italian national team, Lippi, came to Sevilla's Pizjuan Stadium to watch the game, in this Sporting Gijón team, there are three Italian stars, in addition to the veteran Albertini, there are Grosso and Di Natale, Albertini belongs to the past of the Italian national team, however, Grosso and Di Natale are both the objects of Lippi's investigation, especially Grosso, who is a new discovery in the left-back position of Lippi.
Sporting Gijon's goal was a pass after Di Natale got the ball in the middle, pulled the pass behind the outside line, and left-back Grosso suddenly inserted a header into the penalty area: Di Natale assisted, Grosso scored, the cooperation between the two Italian players, if you count the attack that originated from Albertini's long pass, this goal can be said to be a chemical reaction between the three Italian players.
Grosso naturally knew that the head coach of the national team had come to the stands to watch the game, so at this moment, the Italian left-back was particularly excited, as if he saw the door of the national team open to him again.
***********
The game continues.
The morale of the whole team of Sporting Gijón was stimulated by this goal, although there was one less, but in the subsequent games, they showed a tougher defensive attitude and were sharper when counterattacking, which made the Sevillans very headache and anxious.
A sudden hanging door by Di Natale hit the crossbar, and the Italian shooter looked extremely annoyed and slammed the ground hard.
"It's not like Antonio. Li Ang also regretted it, and then said that Di Natale is a very gentle and honest character, if he misses the goal, it is more of a scratching of his head, a wry smile, or a hard fist, which is the biggest emotional reaction. This time it was a little too exciting.
"Lippi in the stands. Scott said to Leon.
It turned out that the Silver Fox came to inspect the players, Li Ang understood in seconds, he understood why Di Natale was so annoyed, and also understood why Grosso was so excited after scoring just now, Lippi came to watch the game, and he should have called and communicated with these Italian players in advance, which means: I came to inspect you, perform well.
So, in today's game, Grosso and Di Natale both seemed to be chickens.
Leon's eyes stayed on the captain of the team Albertini, today's game, Sporting Gijón played with one less person early, as the core of the team's midfield Albertini is under great pressure, however, the 33-year-old Italian veteran today is very calm, in the case of passivity, still Gijón's midfield organization is in order, Sporting Gijón's three goals, two came from Albertini's organization, and the second goal was also caused by his set-piece The chaos in the Sevilla penalty area。
Demi did a great job today...... Thinking like this, Li Ang subconsciously looked in the direction of the platform, thoughtfully.
