As soon as the referee's whistle blew, the players from both sides walked from the pitch to the players' tunnel and then into their respective locker rooms.

Back in the dressing room, the home players were dazed, panting and not daring to come out as they saw manager Claudio Ranieri and assistant coach Benetti walking in.

In fact, not only the coach was not satisfied with their performance in the first half, but even the players on the field were not satisfied with their own appearance, not to mention being led by the away team at their home stadium, almost the entire first half was pressed and beaten by the away team, which is something that cannot be forgiven in any way.

"You guys had a good first half, only conceded one goal!!"

Hearing this, the players' heads lowered a point.

"People who don't know think we're playing away! Didn't you guys know this was the Mestalla Stadium? Didn't know if this was our home turf? Ranieri added another point.

The players' heads were a little lower than before, and their chins were almost up to their chests.

"Heads up!!" As soon as the voice turned, the voice widened again, "Head up!! ”

Only then did the players raise their heads and look at manager Claudio Ranieri.

"First of all, I would like to apologize to everyone! It's that I didn't do my job well and I shouldn't have done that because of three away goals, so we had to go out in the second half! Let the guys from the Apennines know whose home ground this is!! ”

When I first heard Ranieri's apology, I was subconsciously stunned.

Ranieri ignored the stunned players, he took the tactical board from Benetti's hand, and then began to explain the tactics of the second half to the players.

In stark contrast to the home team's dressing room is the away team's dressing room.

They entered the locker room in twos and threes, chatting happily as if they had just watched a half-time football game instead of a half-time game.

Bardini clapped his hands happily, and when the players' attention was concentrated, he smiled and said, "Although we only scored one goal in the first half, we believe that as long as we continue to put pressure on the home team in the second half!" Two more goals!! We are the ones who make it to the Final Four!! ”

Bardini's words immediately aroused the support of the players!

******

The fifteen minutes of the break passed quickly.

Although Valencia's starting eleven in the first half was not ideal, Ranieri did not make substitutions at the beginning of the second half, because the players on the field were not technically problematic, but mentally and attitudely.

Therefore, the players on the field still need to make self-adjustments, and substitutions alone cannot solve the problem!

Just two minutes into the game, Valencia played through the middle of the game, Albelda suddenly shifted the ball to the feet of Vicente on the left, who used his speed to easily shake Vicente, and then crossed with his feet, but unfortunately the outflanked Di Vaio in the middle was slightly right, and the ball was easily confiscated by Frei.

Three minutes later, Valencia made a comeback, Baraja cut off the ball at Guerrera's feet in the middle and did not hesitate to transition the ball to Albelda, who did not stick to the ball and passed straight to David Silva in front of him.

After David Silva received the ball, he used his dexterous skills to shake off Bonella, and then used his speed to completely shake the latter away, Di Vaio in the middle, Vicente on the left side both slammed into the middle, and Parma was in chaos for a while!

"Three-on-three front!!"

Potenza saw Bonella being easily shaken and hurriedly stepped forward to fill the position, but he did not blindly step forward to leave the space behind Di Vaio, but consciously followed David Silva's dribbling frequency while watching the ball and retreating.

Just then, David Silva suddenly smashed the ball with his right foot to the left and went down the middle!! He shifted the ball to his dominant left foot, and then quickly slipped the ball through to Corradi, who suddenly retreated to receive it, and David Silva did not stop after passing the ball and continued to run forward.

Just a few steps after he got the ball from Corradi.

"Pretty two-over-one!"

At this time, it has reached the line of the big forbidden area!! David Silva picks up his left foot!! Ferronetti had to rush over to block the shot, but what he didn't expect was that David Silva was not shooting, but a hypothetical pass!! The arch of his left foot pushed the ball to Vicente, who was high-speed on the left.

"Vicente catches the ball!! None of the defenders around him !! Shot!!! ”

Half a second later, the Mestalla Stadium radio sounded

“ooooobjetivoooooo――”

1：1

******

This has pushed Parma into a desperate situation!

Five minutes later, Parma made a change and replaced defender Bonella with striker Pisanou! The formation also became three-five-two.

Bardini's desperate play seemed to have aroused the fighting spirit of the players, and less than five minutes after making the substitution adjustment, Parma organized a deadly attack.

In the 57th minute, Mofeo took a quick free kick in front, Gilardino retreated to respond, and under the pressure of Ayala's defense, Gilardino passed the ball back to Mofeo.

Seeing that Mofeo had the ball again, Marchena rushed forward, he had seen the Italian veteran's awesomeness in the last game, and this is definitely a dangerous figure. Before the game, Ranieri repeatedly reminded Marchena, the defender who is in charge of the defense, to keep an eye on him and not give him too much space to move.

Marchena's quick up-and-down grabbed made Mofeo a little at a loss, but fortunately, he was experienced in a hundred battles, and did not stop the ball, but directly pushed the ball with his foot, and the football passed to Bresciano next to him.

After Bresciano took a few steps, Baraja stood in front of him, blocked Baraja's view with his body, and then pushed the ball with the arch of his right foot and passed the ball to Mofeo in front of him.

Marchena saw that after Mofeo received the ball, he hurriedly pressed it again, but what he didn't expect was that Mofeo did not receive the ball, but spread his legs apart and leaked the football.

"Mofeo is a beautiful leak!"

The football rolled to the right front of Mofeo, and a figure was subconsciously stunned when he saw the incoming ball, but then the second reaction was very fast, a small run, and then picked up his thick right leg and shot from a distance!!

"Pisanu shoots from distance!!!"

Gilardino, who was about to grab the point, raised his arms after seeing the football go into the net, and there was no time to celebrate, because he heard the roar of the head coach Bardini, "Hurry up!! Hurry up and tee off!! ”

1：2

It was more of a stroke of luck that came in with a long-range shot of more than 30 meters!

However, luck is often based on strength.

Parma has a turnaround!!

Now it is Ranieri's turn to be anxious, because if Parma only need to score one more goal and his side does not score, the aggregate score of the two sides will be equalized, and both sides will have the same away goals and total goals, so if this situation continues, then extra-time will be played......

That's not what Ranieri wants to see, though.

Football is like that sometimes, it's often the last thing you want to see happen.

Sixty-four minutes into the game, it was Pisanu again!! The ghostly movement, combined with Mofeo's very thief pass, passed and received, Pisanu received the ball and went straight into the penalty area, and there was no defender in front of him. Only Baraha, who had the fastest reaction, was pulling hard behind Pisanou, and when Pisanu picked up his right foot and was about to hit the door, in a hurry, Baraha pulled hard with his right hand, and Pisanu fell to the ground!

The referee hesitated, then blew his whistle and pointed his left finger at Valencia's penalty spot.

Penalty kick!!

Shhh

The fans in the stands didn't do it, and let out earth-shattering boos, obviously extremely dissatisfied with the referee's decision! How can you do this to us on our home turf?

However, what makes the home team's fans even more unhappy is yet to come.

Then the referee, after consulting the assistant referee, took out a bright red card from his back pocket and flashed it towards Valencia's captain Baraja.

Penalty and red card!

It was a fatal blow to Valencia!!

Iro, who was warming up in the warm-up area, immediately stopped the warm-up action, and like Albiol who was warming up with him, he scolded the referee, but this did not affect the referee's decision, he was very decisive!

The fans in the stands shouted boos again!

At the same time, they kept scolding the referee!

"You're just a piece of shit!!"

"Did I fuck your mom last night??"

"Mr. Referee, be careful when you go back tonight, I'll blow up your chrysanthemum!!"

・・・・・

At the same time as the shrill boos from the stands, the home team players stopped doing it, and the hot-tempered Marchena and the third vice-captain Albelda Qiqi ran to the referee to theorize!

"Mr. Referee, let's not say that the opponent faked the fall first, why do you want to give us a red card, I now doubt the fairness of your enforcement of the game!!"

The referee was not happy when he heard this, and quickly took out a yellow card from his chest pocket and flashed it towards Marchena.

After seeing this decision, Albelda smiled angrily and slapped his hands twice at the referee.

The referee seems to be addicted to the yellow card, and the yellow card just now has not been put away, so he quickly turned around and showed it towards Albelda!

Fortunately, the old goalkeeper Canizares, who rushed from the small penalty area, was quick to hold a pair of teammates who were about to run away with one hand, and with the help of Aurelio and Ayala, he finally pulled the two 'stubborn cows' away from the place where the incident occurred.

Otherwise, a penalty kick will cause three red cards, and then this ball really doesn't need to be kicked!

Ranieri has always been known as a good man, and when he first saw that it was a penalty, he was just a little impatient, and immediately ordered the players on the bench to warm up, but when he saw the referee give Baraja a red card, he was completely angry!! Ran to the sidelines and raised his voice loudly, "You're a fucking piece of shit!! Do you know whose home turf this is? You must have taken the fucking black balls last night!! Received black money!! While insulting, Ranieri was counting the money with his right hand!

After the referee gave Marchena and Albelda a yellow card each, he heard the call of the fourth assistant referee on the sidelines, quickly pushed away the home team player who wanted to theorize, and ran to the side of the pitch to ask the fourth assistant referee.

I saw that after the fourth assistant referee said a few words in the referee's ear, the head coach's face turned the color of pig liver, and he quickly took out the red card from his back pocket, ran to Ranieri, and showed it to the head coach of Valencia!

Then he pointed his finger to the stands and signaled Ranieri to get off the field! Of course, the stubborn Italian old man was unwilling, and was ready to reason with the referee, but with the efforts of the UEFA staff, Ranieri was put in the stands by two tall and powerful UEFA staff.
