Chapter 164 In trouble
It's easy to say, but it's not easy to do.
A goal was restored and indeed made Hongka players see hope. This is their home court. With the same field, the two teams will feel different when running.
For Espanyol players who are used to playing football on better turf, the turf here is worse than the vegetable fields.
The wet and slippery venue is worse than the one that just rained.
Afraid of being injured!
Although I specially prepared special sneakers for this kind of venue before the game, I still suffered a loss in actual combat.
Everyone kicked carefully, and Wu Sanshi's pace was not as light as before. After all, the turf under his feet was not trustworthy.
But the Hongka players did not have such a mentality. They still played drasticly. Espanyol's defense was really embarrassing.
In the 23rd minute, Callehon took the ball on the left and tried to dribble the ball over the opponent's right back. As a result, the ball was not controlled well and the opponent made a quick counterattack. The opponent passed the ball with two passes and sent the ball to the Spanish penalty area. If Halke had not flew to save the game, Espanyol would have fallen behind 0:2.
Valverde suddenly realized that playing 433 away was really a mistake. He shouldn't be so risky, but he had used up a substitution and it was still early to end the first half.
On this field, no Espanyol fan came with the team to watch the ball, and they seemed lonely. The cheers of cheers came one after another, as if they were trapped in the helpless Colosseum.
Valverde can only make adjustments to the existing personnel. He asked Callehon to retreat to the left forward position, and he should play in the 442 formation.
But doing this did not stabilize the situation, and Hongka's rhythm did not slow down. When you were half a beat slower than the other party everywhere, the rhythm would not keep up.
In the 28th minute, Wu Sanshi had to recover the half, knocking down the opponent's players, and Wu Sanshi also received the first yellow card in the European game.
Nearly half an hour since the opening, Espanyol has paid the price of three yellow cards. The first two were obtained by De La Pena and Harke, almost the entire central axis.
Ruby looked at Valverde in a daze. As an assistant coach, he could see something, but he looked at Valverde habitually, who was the head coach of this team.
“Are we supposed to do something?”
“What can we do?”
Valverde has adjusted his formation and can't do anything anymore.
Wu Sanshi quietly retreated to the front of the penalty area to participate in the set-piece defense. Hongka players did send the ball directly into the Spaniard's penalty area, which once again caused panic in the penalty area. Casilla jumped and received the ball, but Chika hurriedly kicked the ball out of the baseline, but still gave Hongka a chance to have a corner kick.
The corner kick was taken, and the left back of Hong Ka who assisted quickly inserted it at the back point and blocked the ball into the goal!
2:0, the total score, Hongka team actually tied the score to 2:3.
"God..." Ruby looked at Valverde again.
With just a short while, Espanyol was in the most dangerous situation. If Hong Ka scored another goal, the total score would be equalized.
Fans watching football at home in Barcelona were frightened at this time.
"What's going on? It doesn't seem like I can't play football anymore."
"What's wrong with this defense? You won't be able to defend anymore. If you keep playing like this, it's really dangerous. We only have one ball advantage now."
"Finland, that's a damn place."
Fans in Barcelona can still see the broadcast, but those Chinese fans who can only watch live text are confused and have no idea what the situation is.
"What's going on?"
"0:2 lag behind? Isn't it scientific?"
"No matter what, I won't lose two goals, although it's Hongka's home court. Spinach Company will do it!"
"Sanshi, there shouldn't be no chance. It seems that Espanyol has no chance to shoot at all, and there is no money to see the description of Wu Sanshi taking the ball."
"It won't collapse, right? I'm temporarily eliminated, that's really annoying. After all, I'll go in with all my hardships, how can I leave here easily!"
If the fight is again, the Spaniards still have no choice.
In the 39th minute, Tamudo grabbed the header in the middle and sent Wu Sanshi to ferry, but Wu Sanshi's speed was slower!
He doesn't usually do this, but the venue limits his performance and cannot even play his speed advantage.
call,
Hong Ka once again made a counterattack, with a simple and crude style of play. However, this time they did not raise a high ball, and the ground rolling ball quickly passed through the Spaniard's penalty area, but the players who surrounded the ball did not arrive.
Valverde was anxious and shouted a few words off the court, but he was worried that the score would become 0:3 again.
There is no adjustment now, so I hope the game can temporarily end with 0:2.
But these last few minutes are like a year.
One minute later, Dela Pena's pass was too small and the ball was intercepted, and Hongka fought back again.
This time Riella also received a yellow card. Espanyol had already paid 4 yellow cards in the first half alone.
Hongka's frontcourt set ball was taken, and this time Casilla steadily took the ball into his arms.
Valverde shouted again, signaling to stabilize the rhythm.
Espanyol didn't hit the ball up and dragged out the first half of the game.
call,
Valverde breathed a long sigh of relief, and the painful first half was finally over, at least he and his team could take a breath.
In the away locker room, basically everyone is frowning, and everyone has never experienced such a away game.
Even Wu Sanshi has never had such a bad experience.
"We played too carefully,"
"We have to fight for the goal in the second half."
"It is foreseeable that they will do their best to attack. It is difficult for us to adapt to their home court now, and if we simply defend, we cannot defend it."
"If we can't play our own speed and rhythm, then we can only follow their rhythm, which is quite dangerous."
"If we are always worried about the turf under our feet, we will not be able to leave here safely."
"We can do what they can do. They can run on this lawn, and we can do it."
"If we are stage frightened here, we will definitely lose!"
"So, we have to make a difference! Going further, we can play in the League Cup group stage."
"How can we die here?"
...
After the change of sides, it started to snow in the sky, and it seemed that the weather was getting worse and worse.
But Valverde's eyes lit up.
"rain?"
"This seems like an opportunity!"
