Chapter 101: Turning Problems into Goals


During the halftime break, the starting eleven of both sides returned to their respective locker rooms, while the substitute players could warm up according to their own needs to be ready to play at any time.

Therefore, as soon as the starting eleven of both sides left the court, Aiello and David Silva came to the court.

The fans in the stands immediately burst into cheers.

The Chinese reporters in the stands were grinning from ear to ear at this moment, as if the fans were calling for them instead of Ai Luo.

Click click click click As Aiello hit a long shot, the cheers from the stands came again. wooooooooooooooo "Hey, I can't believe how influential it is now."

"That's a must, okay?"

Then he added, "It doesn't matter who I am."

“So narcissistic” David Silva and Albiol said it in unison, raising their middle fingers at the same time. home team locker room After Ranieri entered the locker room, his face turned dark.

The starting eleven in front of him lowered their heads tacitly.

No one dared to say another word for fear of angering him.

"Are you at La Romeda Stadium now?"

Ranieri said. "" No one answered.

The home team's locker room was so quiet at this moment that they could hear their own breathing clearly.

"I asked you if no one answered me at La Romeda Stadium now?"

Ranieri repeated the previous question again. "" Still no one answered. one minute two minutes five minutes

"It's not bad.

You're leading away from home at home, and you don't even dare to answer my questions.

If you don't say anything, then who doesn't want to play anymore?

If you say it, I will replace him immediately."

Ranieri said angrily.

"If the rules allow it, I will replace all eleven of you."

Still no one spoke.

A depressing atmosphere suddenly filled the entire home team's locker room.

At this moment, assistant coach Benetti was sweating for some reason, but the air conditioning was on in the locker room.

After a while, Ranieri seemed to have vented enough, and his voice gradually became gentler, "Ruben, you are the captain, what do you think of the team's performance in the first half?"

Baraja was stunned for a moment subconsciously, but responded quickly, "My teammates worked hard in the first half, but we just didn't seize the opportunity.

Otherwise, we would have equalized the score or taken the lead."

Unexpectedly, the captain directly pointed the finger at Italian striker Corradi at this moment.

Everyone doesn't have a good impression of the two Italian forwards Di Vaio and Corradi who were injured before.

Not to mention that they spent a lot of the club's budget, but they just didn't score goals after joining the team, which led to The team went winless in five games at the end of the first half of the season and the start of the next season.

"snort" Corradi snorted and said nothing.

Ranieri saw everything in front of him, but he had no choice.

He found that he was more and more able to control these players, and sighed, "Let's talk about how to play in the next half."

In fact, in the final analysis, the biggest problem of this team is not the weakness of the front, but the players' hunger for honor.

Most of the main players won last year's La Liga and UEFA Cup doubles under the leadership of Benitez.

Champions, the pursuit of honor is no longer so strong.

This is the biggest problem.

Ranieri, who only took over the team last summer, did not instill a fresh blood into the team to keep the team hungry for honors.

At the same time, the visiting team's locker room seemed particularly harmonious.

"Hey congratulations David" “David remembers to treat us to dinner tomorrow.”

"If you run the order, I won't pass the ball to you then."

Such jokes make the atmosphere in the visiting team's locker room more harmonious.

It can be said that Zaragoza has no desire this season.

There is no hope of relegation and promotion to the European competition is also far away.

That is why they played so relaxedly in this game and are ahead of the home team Valencia.

The fifteen minutes of halftime passed quickly.

Under the urging of the assistant referee, the starting players of both sides walked out of their respective locker rooms.

"beep" With the referee's whistle, the second half of the game officially began

After the start of the second half, Corradi's condition was obviously worse than that of the first half.

Apparently he was upset because of the captain's criticism during the halftime break.

He failed to handle several passes and receptions well.

Gradually, his teammates passed the ball to him less often.

Even though he stood out in the crowd and raised his hand to ask for the ball, no teammates passed the ball to him.

Some keen reporters immediately noticed this change on the field.

"Has Italian striker Corradi completely lost his status in the dressing room?"

Such thoughts kept popping up in the minds of major journalists.

Time passed very quickly, but the home team Valencia did not equalize the score as time passed.

If it were not for several superb performances by Canizares, the score would have been widened long ago.

"Ai, David go warm up" Ranieri checked the time, and it was exactly ten minutes into the second half.

He quickly turned to look at the bench and shouted loudly.

"yes" "yes" The two answered quickly, fearing that the coach would regret it after half a beat.

David Silva was so hasty that he stumbled and almost fell.

"Haha, David, you don't want to play, do you?"

Albiol quipped.

This scene of David Silva also made Ranieri couldn't help laughing, and his eyes looking at the two of them became kind.

In the 15th minute of the second half, which was the 60th minute of the game, Aiello stood on the sideline of the center circle, waiting for the dead ball, and then came on as a substitute.

He kicked hard on the turf a few times.

Sufficient strength and good condition At this moment, after Alberda's long-range shot went over the crossbar, the referee blew the whistle and pointed his finger at the sideline of the center circle.

Valencia made substitutions.

The fourth assistant referee held up the electronic sign.

No. 9 goes down and No. 28 goes up.

The fans in the stands immediately let out cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami, and they felt like they had been around for three days.

When the Italian Corradi saw that he was being replaced, he was obviously very unhappy and ran slowly to the substitution place without even performing the most basic high-five etiquette before leaving the field.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

His action immediately caused a burst of displeasure among the home team fans in the East Stand.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t score a goal when you play, but you don’t give high-fives when you end up.

Please encourage our magical boy.

This is unforgivable under any circumstances.

Aiello, who was standing on the sidelines waiting to come on the court, was extremely embarrassed.

He stretched out his right palm and remained there in a daze until the fourth assistant referee pushed him before he realized what he was doing and ran towards the court.

As he slowly walked towards his seat, he accidentally glanced at the time on the screen in the north stand, which was 60 minutes and 45 seconds.

I bet the old man is a strict German, right?

It’s really not more than thirty minutes.

Aiello replaced center Corradi, so his job is to take over Corradi's job and help the team destroy the city and score goals.

However, a problem arises.

He was not a natural center forward.

Every time the midfielder passed the ball to him, he would habitually lead it to the sideline.

This confused Valencia's formation and robbed Vicente several times. location.

"Ai, your position is in the middle" After Aiello took his spot for the third time, Vicente finally couldn't help but speak out.

"Hey, I'm used to it, sorry."

Ai Luo replied with a smile while running towards his position in the middle.

Ranieri on the sidelines raised his eyebrows and asked, "Isn't Ai really a center forward?"

Ranieri, who originally only suspected that Aiello was not a center, after a while was completely sure that he was not a center.

The most basic quality support of a center could not be done well.

So, he turned his head and shouted to Ferrer on the bench, "Mista, go warm up."

And he once again set his sights on the game.

In the 68th minute of the game, Albelda launched a counterattack with a long pass.

Vicente from the left rushed to catch up, and with a beautiful mid-air cushion, he knocked the ball to Aimar who was behind the center.

Someone came to the center, and Aiello naturally pulled to the right where Aimar was before.

But now the problem is that there is no Valencia player at the front of Zaragoza's penalty area to respond, which makes it difficult for those who receive the ball to organize the attack.

Aimar is causing trouble "Ai, hurry back to your position, in the middle."

Ranieri really had no choice but to give up the key position in the middle.

How difficult would it be to play, so he had to yell at Aiello.

At the same time, after receiving the ball from Vicente, Aimar first used his body's reasonable position to block Cuatero behind him, and then moved his dexterous body to the left, like a loach, from Cuatro.

Tello's left side was wiped out.

After hearing the old man's roar, Aiello decisively abandoned the gap on the right and quickly moved towards the center.

At this time, Aimar had just passed Cuatero and looked towards him with very intelligent eyes.

Understanding After wiping Cuatero, Aimar raised his head to observe the situation in the frontcourt.

His eyes lit up and his feet were unambiguous.

He pushed the arch of his right foot towards the middle and lower part of the football.

The ball obediently pressed against what he had observed before.

The good line rolled over quickly.

At the same time, Aiello suddenly accelerated in a diagonal direction, leaving Kani and Milito behind. wooooooooooooooooooo

The fans of the home team near Zaragoza's goal stood up immediately and let out a burst of cheers.

After Movilla saw Aimar easily brushing off Cuatero, he rushed forward to continue the defense.

Unexpectedly, the opponent actually passed the ball and subconsciously pushed down.

He was preparing for a difficult tackle to the ground. ball yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa The fans in the stands cheered again because Movilla did not tackle the ball.

Aimar's penetrating through ball The football missed Movilla's feet.

This was something Zaragoza's defenders did not expect.

The moment he fell to the ground to tackle, Kani and Milito, who were following Aiello, subconsciously paused.

Suddenly, after realizing that the football had missed, it was too late to speed up.

Ai Luo had already run to the line of the penalty area, and at the same time, the football had rolled to his feet.

Zaragoza goalkeeper Garcia still raised his hand stupidly towards the assistant referee to indicate that the opponent's forward was offside.

Nice through ball and movement After receiving the football, Aiello saw that the opponent's goalkeeper had already arrived at the penalty spot.

He could only use one move to deal with such a goalkeeper.

Rubbing the bottom of the football with your toes Then, the ball obediently rose higher and higher, flew over Garcia's raised right arm, fell on the goal line, and flew into the embrace of the net due to inertia. 1:1:
