Chapter 31: 0-3 down

In the 47th minute, just two minutes into the second half, Santos conceded again. Valazula fouled Carlos resulting in a free kick, Corinthians sent a quick free kick, the ball passed to the feet of Aaron, who adjusted slightly and hit the goal directly from 30 meters away, blasting a world wave and breaking the goal guarded by Gulidev.

Curry couldn't help but curse on the sidelines, who is to blame for this lost ball. Blame Valrazula's foul, no, his foul only gave Corinthians a free-kick in the opposing half. Blame the central defender, can't, Allen is a long-range shot. Blame Gulijeff, Allen's shot is of such high quality that it flies straight into the corner and no goalkeeper can save. If you want to blame, you can only blame the opposing striker Allen's state in this game is too good, and the quality of long-range shots is so high.

With a goal down, Curry can still hope to win the game on defensive counterattacks. If you're two goals down, play conservatively and wait for defeat. No, it is better to strengthen the attack. Curry's eyes swept to the two forwards sitting on the bench, Lewells and Landwind. Who should be used, Curry hesitated a little.

Lu Feng felt a wave of disappointment after seeing the team concede the goal. I didn't expect Corinthians' strength to be so strong, especially the opponent's striker Allen, whose strength was even more extraordinary. When head coach Curry's eyes looked at himself and Lewells, Lu Feng was a little excited, and his chance to play came.

Unexpectedly, the name that Curry called out was not himself.

"Levels, go warm up."

Lewells showed excitement on his face, and glanced at Lu Feng lightly, yes, what if you kid is favored by FM, at the critical moment, the head coach still believes in himself.

Lu Feng is so depressed, he can't figure out why the head coach is not going to let Lewells play. Isn't his performance better than that of Levels?

In the time of Lewells' warm-up, Corinthians almost made it 3-0. Corinthians' corner kick was flicked by defender Berentes' header into the corner of the goal. If it weren't for Gulidev's timely reaction and his fingertips touching the ball and changing its trajectory, the ball would not have grazed the goalpost and flew out, but scored.

Livers came on to replace Okere, who had been mediocre in the first half. Oakre was obviously a little unhappy that Curry replaced him, and he didn't communicate with Curry and sat on the bench with a cold face. It's no wonder that they were substituted at the beginning of the second half, and anyone would be unhappy. Lewells has been quite active since he came on and he wants to take the opportunity to show what he can do in front of the manager. Since Pardew's rise last season, Lewells has been reduced to a No. 3 striker within the Santos team. Although he is the No. 3 striker, he has played a lot of games.

It's just that this season, Lu Feng has gradually shown his strength and future, which makes Lewells a little worried, and if he continues like this, he may not even be able to secure the position of the No. 3 striker, and he will be completely reduced to a substitute. This kind of thing is unacceptable to Lywells.

So as soon as he got on the pitch, Lewells showed good form. A couple of breakaway passes showed the good quality of Lywells and put some pressure on the Corinthians backline. For a while, Corinthians didn't dare to press too much on the attack.

As Corinthians consciously or unconsciously retreated, Santos gradually regained his attacking feel, and several attacks were impressive. On one occasion, he almost broke the goal.

It was a clean and beautiful pass from Levels to the back of the plug Silva, who got up to kick in and deceived defender Nivara before passing the ball back to Sami. Sammy was unmarked and missed a great chance to open the scoring by looking too far for the ball to angle.

In the 56th minute, Corinthians took a free kick in front. Carlos walked to the free-throw line and pretended to be the one he was driving. Carlos's run-up was just an illusion, and it was Duri who was in charge of the real penalty. Carlos managed to get Santos into the jump, and Dury's free-kick was quick to go from the foot of the wall. Gulidev was deceived by Carlos and blocked by a human wall. By the time he saw the football, it was too late to make a save, and it rolled into the goal behind him.

Gulijeff is so angry, looking at the Corinthians players celebrating on the court, Gulidev is unspeakably uncomfortable. The score of 3-0 was originally a match of equal strength, but how did it become like this.

Gulijeff couldn't figure it out, and likewise, the other Santos players couldn't figure it out. Dury's goal made many Santos players lose their fighting spirit. 3 goals down, trying to get it back, it's difficult, it's too difficult. Many Santos players have the idea that we lost this game.

"Cheer up, the game is not over yet, everything is still possible, you can't give up now." Anderson noticed the mood change in his teammates and yelled loudly.

"Isn't it just a game, don't think about the win, we only have one goal, to score goals, you know?" Benjamin also stepped forward to remind his teammates.

The statements of the two captains more or less boosted the morale of the Santos players. It's just that compared to the indomitable attacking attitude at the beginning of the second half, in the following time, the players behaved more like completing the task of finishing the game, and did not see the slightest desire to win.

Even the commentators on the sidelines couldn't help but complain.

"Is this Santos really the second-ranked Santos in the league? In one game, we saw the Santos team that could only play downwind last season, and Curry's transformation of this team is completely invisible. ”

"I thought it was a close game, but because of Aaron's outburst, Corinthians destroyed Santos's fighting spirit. Just look at the performance of the Santos players on the pitch, they have no fighting spirit and don't look like title contenders at all, more like a relegated team. ”

"The defeat in this game was not just a matter of being pulled apart by Corinthians in the standings. A loss by such a large margin to a title contender would be a fatal blow to the team's morale, and Santos may suffer a series of defeats as a result. ”

The commentator's voice swore as if the game had ended. It's no wonder that Santos didn't even have a decent attack after conceding the third. If it weren't for the Corinthians squandering their chances, the score of this match would have pierced the heart of every Santos fan.
