Two hundred and fifty kilometers southeast of Madrid, at the Carlos Bimondi Stadium in Albacete, the final round of La Liga is in full swing.

The home team Albacete was once a force to be reckoned with in La Liga in the early 90s, but after being relegated in 1996, it has never been able to return to La Liga.

Albacete was disappointed that he had not returned to La Liga this season, and coach Rubio had already decided to step down.

But even so, Rubio still put on a full squad at the Carlos Bimondi Stadium, vowing to defend himself and the dignity of the team in the final round of the league.

Five-four-one, defensive counterattack, this is Albacete's usual tactic when encountering strong teams this season.

After winning the Copa del Rey, the visiting team Atletico Madrid won two consecutive games 5-0, and the team's morale was high, and in order to win the championship, the final round was even more inevitable.

Gao Han did not become conservative at all because of the away game, and put on a strong offensive tactic from the beginning.

One side for dignity, the other side for the championship, the two sides fought hard from the beginning.

It wasn't until the 22nd minute that Atletico Madrid scored the opener from Fernando Torres after receiving a through ball from Hugo Leal, breaking the deadlock for the Bandins.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, Albacete did not dare to be careless, and Atletico Madrid still firmly controlled the situation on the field.

It was only in the 78th minute that Hugo Leal assisted Xavi Alonso and scored a long-range shot past Albacete again to make it 2-0.

After that, both sides began to slow down the tempo, and the game went into garbage time completely.

As soon as the 90 minutes were up, referee Munoz blew the whistle for the end of the game.

……

When the whistle blew, the players on the pitch were excited.

One by one, they rushed out of the court, rushed to the sidelines, and gathered around head coach Gao Han.

"Boss, how did the Sevilla game go?"

"yes, what's the score?"

"Lost? or won?"

"Tenerife or not?"

"Boss, tell us about it!"

Although Atletico Madrid won, if they want to win the title, they have to look at the game between Sevilla and Tenerife, which is why the players of Atletico Madrid are so concerned.

However, Gao Han shook his head, "It's not clear for the time being. ”

"Still unclear?"

"What do you mean, boss?"

"yes, what the hell is going on?"

Gao Han raised his hand and motioned for them not to be anxious.

"It's still 0-0, and there's still more than four minutes left. ”

Although the final round of matches will be played at the same time, the end of the game will be slightly delayed due to the difference in stoppage time.

But as soon as he heard the news, Atletico Madrid's heart couldn't help but raise his voice again.

…………

…………

When Atletico Madrid beat Albacete, the whistle blew at the end of the match at the City Stadium in Valencia.

The scoreboard on the City Stadium shows the final score of the match, three to two.

In international practice, the home team is in front and the away team is in the back.

This represents the home team Levante beating the away team Real Betis.

On the pitch, the Real Betis players in green jerseys were all slumped on the turf, some looked like they had been drained of energy, their eyes were empty and blank, and some were lying on the grass, crying bitterly.

They lost!

This defeat means that even if Tenerife loses the match in Sevilla, the Canary Islands team can still rely on the advantage of two legs to beat Real Betis and finish third in the league.

It persisted for a year and went through countless difficult bloody battles, but in the end, the result was ...... Fail!

This makes the players of Real Betis unacceptable in any way!

What makes them feel even more unacceptable is that they have personally destroyed this hope!

Real Betis' interim manager, Luis del Sol, stood alone and helpless on the sidelines, watching in disbelief as the scene unfolded inside the stadium, a myriad of thoughts flashing through his mind.

If the opening tactics were not so aggressive, perhaps, Levante would not have relied on defense to counterattack in the first half, scoring three goals in a row, and would not have been able to turn the situation around in the second half after his team fought back wildly.

This is especially the home stadium of the devil in the Spanish Second League, which has caused headaches for countless teams, why did he have a bad brain before the game and wanted to rely on a strong attack to trap them?

This gray-haired, sixty-year-old former Spain international, at this moment, had to bow his proud head, and helplessly accepted in his heart that he could no longer keep up with the tragedy of the times.

After former coach Fernando Vazquez was sacked by management in March after back-to-back heavy defeats to Atletico Madrid and Tenerife, Del Sol took over in the chaos and embarked on the biggest gamble of his coaching career.

As a result, this time, he lost not only himself, but also a season of hard work by everyone at Real Betis.

At this moment, he wanted to go out on the pitch and comfort his players.

But, will they accept my kindness?

And the club officials sitting in the stands, what should they be thinking about right now?

Complaining, angry, prevarication?

Or are you wondering if you should sell the players in exchange for a rebuilding fund and make a comeback for the new season?

But, that shouldn't be my business, right?

…………

…………

Sevilla, Estadio Pizjuan.

Rafael Benitez felt that the tie on his chest was so tight that he was a little out of breath and had to untie it somewhat, but he still felt suffocated in his heart.

Eighty-seven minutes later, the score was still 0-0.

But I have received the news just now, Real Betis fought hard to catch up, chasing two goals in a row, with the strength of Real Betis, it is not completely impossible to chase two more goals at the last moment.

Anything can happen on a football field.

Therefore, the 0-0 result does not guarantee Tenerife's promotion, so he still has to think about it.

In the second half, he made a series of substitutions and adjustments, each time making targeted changes to the situation on the pitch, but Sevilla's Caparros was not a fuel-efficient lamp and quickly adjusted.

Just now, he replaced Mista and Simoutenkov in one go, just to further strengthen the team's attack.

Now it's up to us to see if those two substitutions work.

"God forbid!" Benitez prayed.

At this moment, a crisp whistle suddenly sounded in the stadium, and immediately after, the entire Pizjuan stadium exploded.

The fans in the stands were booing, booing wildly.

"What's going on?" Benitez turned to look.

"Red card, red card!" the assistant hissed from the side.

The Spanish coach saw that referee Renales was holding a shocking red card on his raised right hand.

In front of him, Sevilla defender Héctor was defending his innocence, but the referee undoubtedly pointed to Mista, who fell to the ground, signaling that Héctor's foul action was clear to him.

"Oh my God, it's eighty-eight minutes, it's going to be eighty-nine minutes, and we're giving us a red card at this time?"

The whole stadium was booing the referee's move, but to no avail.

From the referee's determined eyes and the slow-motion replay on the field, it can be clearly seen that Héctor did have an obvious foul and got a yellow card.

But he already had a yellow card in the first half, two yellows turned into one red, and he was sent off the field directly.

Watching Héctor walk out of the pitch with his head drooping, still scolding indignantly, Benitez was excited.

"Attack, attack, press!"

The chubby Benitez was so excited on the sidelines that he couldn't wait to rush onto the pitch and make a big splash.

Tenerife won a good set-piece up front, with Russia's Simoutenkov taking the spot, and almost all of the team's highs were charged into the Sevilla penalty area.

"Set-pieces, okay, we focused on rehearsing before the game, don't rush, take your time, follow what we rehearsed before the game. ”

Benitez was so nervous that he muttered to himself on the sidelines.

On the pitch, Simutenkov seemed to think the same way, constantly gesturing at his teammates in the box.

Slowly retreated, and waited until the other party had set up the human wall, and then he waited for him.

Caparos is ready for a substitution, with centre-back Michel coming on for centre-forward Salayeta.

Michel is a tall centre-back with good frontal defensive skills, but this time the substitution had to wait for the free-kick to be taken.

"One last chance!" Benitez exhaled nervously.

Seeing on the court, Simunkov took a deep breath and rushed forward quickly.

Only a thud was heard, and the ball arced around the human wall.

"Okay, the drop is well controlled, the centre-backs come over and grab ......," Benitez muttered.

It was his strategy before the game when he practised set-piece tactics.

The central defender really ran over to grab it, and grabbed the first landing point.

“…… Ferry to the back point......"

The centre-back rubbed the ball, which changed direction, crossed the penalty area and fell to the back post.

“…… Grab the back point...... Grab the back point...... Who the hell is giving me a back point!" Benitez roared through gritted teeth.

At the critical moment, suddenly a figure flashed, I don't know where it came from, and Mista appeared at the back point like a ghost, and when no one was marking, he faced the ball, jumped forward, and headed the ball.

The ball touched Mista's forehead just right, turned in a direction and crashed into the Sevilla goal.

Cross the line, whistle blows, ball in!

In an instant, the entire Stadium de Pizjuán fell into a deathly silence.

The fans are silent!

Everyone looked at the ball in disbelief at the ball that was still pulsating.

Come in!

The ball is in!

Mista jumped up from the ground, rushed into the goal excitedly, hugged the ball stained with the sweat and grass clippings of countless people, kissed it hard, and then turned and ran.

The entire Pizjuán stadium booed!

Benitez breathed a sigh of relief, as if his whole body had collapsed.

Finally a goal!(To be continued.) )
