The pessimistic comments of the TV commentators were undoubtedly too early in the eyes of Numancia fans, but it was also true, and after more than 30 minutes of confusion, Villarreal's players finally gradually found their form and began to show their fangs in attack.

Seeing this, the Numansia had to reluctantly realize that when the yellow submarine showed its strength, a team like herself was indeed no opponent. But even so, they have not given up with tenacity from afar, after all, relegation is a certainty for Numancia today, and they have only scored a pitiful 13 points in the past 20 rounds, so what if they lose another game?

They are not afraid to fail! The fear is the numbness of the defeat of the team from the bottom of my heart, which is what coach Kresic always emphasis!

As a result, the Numancia players under the command of their coach Kresic immediately began to enter the defensive formation, but anyone could tell that the Numancia were still waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.

It was time for the Villarreal attack, and after another failed attempt to break through, the ball was passed to the feet of new signing Santiago, who did not rush and began to constantly reverse his feet around the opposition defense to try to find the local weaknesses of the Numancia as a whole. Of course, the Numancia players are not stupid, they naturally know what the home team players think, but just when they couldn't help but want to fight back, Santilago suddenly distributed the ball to the inserted Tomasson! ”

"Jon Dahl Thomasson! The Danish striker made a name for himself with Feyenoord FC in the Netherlands, winning the UEFA Cup with Feyenoord in '02 before moving to AC Milan in Italy the following year and winning the 2003 UEFA Champions League! He was also the Danish Footballer of the Year winner in 2002 and 2004, and has played in the Danish Liga, Eredivisie, Premier League, La Liga, Serie A and Bundesliga during his career. He is an extremely experienced player! ”

The moment the ball was picked up in the Danish national team, everyone felt threatened, and even the TV commentators sitting in the stands couldn't help but chant.

Tomasson has always maintained a high scoring rate in his career, and when he first appeared in Serie A, he was evaluated by the Italian media as a striker who was "more Inzaghi than Inzaghi". Although the height of 1.82 meters is not outstanding in European football, Tomasson is the kind of person who relies on his body and relies on his mind to play.

Of course, Numancia knew how good Tomasson was, and they immediately split two players to join him, knowing that the characteristics of poor long-range shooting and not being in excellent physical condition were Tomasson's goals, and as long as they held on to this, they could contain the threat posed by Tomasson.

It was a very simple defense, but the next moment the Numansia couldn't help but frown deeply.

It turned out that San Tiago did not stop running after seeing Tomasson cut in, and he immediately rushed forward until he reached the edge of the wing of the penalty area, and then stopped. This seemingly inconspicuous move made the Numancia players who had only been able to rely on the numerical advantage to form a local defense to play more and play less to complete the defense very uncomfortable, and what made them even more painful was that this time Tomasson did not seem to have the intention of continuing to advance, but started to constantly reverse the ball with Santhiago and others again.

Such a seemingly calm attack is the most nerve-wracking.

The Numancians were faced with such a situation at the front of their penalty area, and did not dare to make any drastic moves, and the threat that would come to them was huge, and they could only be tired of following the ball, which was undoubtedly a palliative and slow death.

Seeing this scene, Pellegrini, who was standing on the sidelines, finally frowned and smiled slightly.

Just a few minutes earlier, he had seen Santiago run up to Tomasson and say something after an offensive defeat, and the situation was in the immediate future. It is undoubtedly a welcome situation for the attack to come from the plan of San-Tiago, as it is not easy for a new signing to take the initiative to put down his body and communicate with the attackers in the team to make changes, and Pellegrini is even more curious about how San-Tiago persuaded Tomasson.

Since Villarreal's overall strength is higher than that of its opponents, why bother to fight with Numancia and play a fast attack after gradually regaining the initiative? Stabilizing the situation, pursuing opportunities in calm, and not giving the Numancia people a void is the best option for Villarreal at the moment. The Yellow Submarines, with their home power, will undoubtedly be able to make the most of their strengths, and Santhiago clearly grasps that.

Sure enough, after receiving the ball three times, Saint-Tiago, who had completely controlled the situation on the side, suddenly pressed on with his teammates at the same time, causing the Numancian penalty area to jump, and in the face of the opponent who brought him great pressure, the Numancian subconsciously met it at the first time and wanted to complete the steal. But Santiago, who looked calm under the two Numancia defenders, was not in a hurry, and a clever pass not only picked himself out, but also allowed Tomasson, who rushed into the penalty area, to get an extremely rare opportunity to shoot.

Through a period of contact, Santhiago has gradually learned more about Villarreal, in the right-back position, Josemi and Venta are not very different in terms of either one, both are relatively ordinary Spanish full-backs, and both are relatively mediocre at both offensive and defensive ends. The main left wing-back, Spain international Capdevilla, a former midfielder who was transformed into a full-back, is fast, good on the ball and has excellent crossing, which makes his wide assist an important attacking tool for the team.

It can be said that Capdevilla's way of scoring not only has long-range shots but also the ability to grab points and headers like a striker, but unfortunately there is no tacit understanding between Santhiago and the Spanish international, which makes Santiago unable to cooperate with him in the attack for the time being, and can only find a way from the front line.

Fortunately, Tomasson is also a very aggressive player at this moment, which is a bit far from his quiet appearance

In short, Tommasson recognized Santiago's plan very much, and the two hit it off and immediately took action.

"Oh, an unbelievable pass! What a nimble and delicate pick, Santiago is like a graceful dancer, and he makes the Numansians unguarded with his calm performance! With Tomasson on the ball, will the Danish striker, who has been a rare player in world football, take advantage of this opportunity!? Facing the desperate Numancia goalkeeper, he didn't have time to make adjustments and chose to hit the goal directly! ”

“goal！！！！！ The ball bursts into the net!! Thomasson! The captain of the Danish national team scored the first goal of the game!! It was a perfect burst and the Numancia goalkeeper simply didn't have time to react! What's more, when Santhiago looks back on his illustrious career a few years later, he will not forget that in February '09 in La Liga, he gave his first La Liga assist! ”

The excited Tomasson and his teammates celebrated wildly, it was the first goal of the game for the Yellow Submarine, and although the score of 1:0 was not enough to call it a huge advantage, it was indeed almost a step to seal the victory! Santhiago and Tomason embraced each other passionately, and together they helped Villarreal take the lead! ”

"Although the Numansia could take advantage of the break to make adjustments in the upcoming second half, I don't think Villarreal will take it lightly or slow down the attack when there is a huge disparity in quality! Don't forget that this is at the Love Song Stadium! After a short break during the winter break, the rejuvenated Villarreal will not allow victory to slip aside! “

As the commentator said, when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, the Villarreal crowd happily walked towards the dressing room amid the cheers of more than 10,000 fans, while the satisfied Santhiago was also chatting with Tomasson excitedly. It was a great thing for Santy to take advantage of the few opportunities to deliver his first assist in La Liga, and it was his Villarreal debut.

After a short break and a restart of the second half of the game, Saint-Tiago continued to implement the goals he set for himself, and made very good passes for Tomasson several times, although he did not score, but it also made the coach on the sidelines Pellegrini very satisfied with his performance.

And the rest of the game was just as the commentator said, and although the Numancia players readjusted their form after the break, how could the home team give them more chances? In the 78th minute of the game, coach Manuel Pellegrini made a decisive substitution adjustment, seizing the best period of time to continue to put pressure on the Numancia, so that they could breathe under the fierce attack.

When Saint-Thiago walked off the pitch, the stands burst into applause from the Villarreal fans, who were undoubtedly very happy with the performance of the future core, who provided an assist on their La Liga debut to set the stage for Villarreal, and continued to try to thread the needle in the game, which is arguably the best situation!

"Well done, St. Di!" The Chilean engineer sent Grini patted Santi's shoulder with satisfaction, and then stared back at the pitch intently.

Just three minutes later, Villarreal scored again to make it 2-0, this time with Tomasson, who masterfully rounded the Numancia defender after receiving a long pass from Capdevilla and created a magical one-on-one shot into the far corner of the goal. After scoring a brace, Tomasson was like a god descending from heaven in front of the Numancian goal, fearing it.

This is the most cold-blooded and deadly killer!

This incisive goal pushed the atmosphere of the whole stadium at the Love Song Stadium, and the excited Villarreal fans never imagined that they would usher in such a hearty victory after the opening quagmire! The smooth attacks that poured out like mercury were simply dazzling! It also led them to look at Santiago sitting on the sidelines again, and it was clear that Villarreal were able to break the deadlock, and that Santiago's improvised tactics on the pitch were absolutely indispensable.

At this time, the tired Saintie naturally enjoyed this gaze very much, and while observing the characteristics of the rest of his teammates, he smiled and told his substitute teammates about some of his fun when he was looking for Boca.

In the end, the game ended with a 2-0 victory for Villarreal, and the Villarreal players appeared on the sidelines to express their gratitude to the fans who arrived in the stadium in the huge singing, the start after the winter break was difficult, and the final sprint was certainly hard, but there is no doubt that they will continue and will not retreat.

After the game, Saint-Tiago was more sought after by the media as a new signing in and out of the team than Tomasson, who scored twice in this game, but seeing this scene, Tomasson not only did not have half a point of anger but was full of smiles on the side, on the other hand, looking around, the rest of the Villarreal players are the same. It turned out that it was the same smile, and Santi, who thought it would usher in a lot of praise, didn't expect this group of Spanish media to ask about something inexplicable.

What do you think of Spanish football, what is the situation in the Villarreal team now, and what is even more terrifying is that they have begun to ask how they feel about Atletico Madrid as a club.

Of course, this kind of non-routine play is directly to beat our protagonist there, and Saintie can't even understand what the media is like, why don't you care about the victory of this game and your own performance, but ask all over the world. Seeing this, Santi can only answer what he likes about the style of Spanish football, and he feels that the atmosphere in the Villarreal team is very harmonious, and the relationship between teammates is very harmonious, as for Atletico Madrid, Santi deliberately avoided it.

As far as he knows, Villarreal's next opponent in the league is not Atletico Madrid, could it be that Atletico Madrid has been making some big news recently? Or what kind of sensitive event? Therefore, given that they did not know what the situation was, Santhiago chose to keep silent, and it was not until the Villarreal club staff saw that the situation was not good, and they directly intervened to remove him.
