The green devil

Zhao Yang's goal disrupted the team's pre-match deployment.

Lleida was originally going to defend until the second half. If they lose the ball after 65 minutes, they can accept the result of a 0:1 loss.

But conceding a goal in the first half, I am afraid it will be difficult to defend until the end without conceding a goal.

If you lose two goals in an away game and have not scored an away goal, it will be very difficult to come back at home.

The Lleida team had to start a plan, even if they lost, they had to strive for an away goal.

After a short period of confusion, the Lleida team immediately launched a counterattack.

Hope to restore morale as soon as possible and reverse the situation.

But the morale of the current St. Andrew's team is too high.

In the cheers of more than 3000 home fans, the St. Andrew's team firmly controlled the game situation.

In the final moments of the first half, St. Andrew's frontcourt trio showed their strength again.

Zhao Yang breaks through the middle and divides the side. At some point, Verano has already reached the side. He received a pass from Zhao Yang and quickly made a cross.

Santiago slapped on, and with a diving header, he headed the ball into the goal of the Lleida team.

2:0

St. Andrew's striker Santiago helped the team expand the score.

Santiago's goal drove Lleida to the brink.

Although Lleida has a home advantage in the next game, with two conceded goals and no away goals, there is almost no chance of a comeback in the second round.

During the half-time break, the head coach of Lleida had to change his tactics, completely abandoning the strategy of keeping the tie and winning, and pursued away goals.

At the beginning of the second half, Lleida wanted to launch a counterattack while the St. Andrew team was still immersed in joy.

However, the St. Andrew team is not afraid of the opponent's attack at all now, they are not afraid of conceding goals, because they can score more goals.

Facing the onslaught of the Lleida team, St. Andrew's team, which has two goal advantages, did not hesitate to start a confrontation with the Lleida team.

In the confrontation, Zhao Yang's personal breakthrough was even more vivid.

In the 52nd minute of the game, Zhao Yang made continuous breakthroughs at the front of the penalty area. Just when he was about to take a shot, he was pushed down by the defender.

St Andrews wins a free kick in the frontcourt.

Most of the St. Andrew's free kicks are now taken by Zhao Yang, and only Verano is allowed to pass the ball unless the distance is relatively long.

Zhao Yang is now full of confidence in his free kick. He stood in front of the ball without hesitation. When the whistle blew, he made a small run-up and kicked a beautiful falling leaf to break through the ten fingers of the goalkeeper of the Leeda team.

3:0

Zhao Yang scored twice and almost helped the team seal the victory.

After scoring the goal, Zhao Yang relaxed a lot. He covered his ears with his hands and ran to the stands.

This is asking for applause.

In fact, there is no need. When Zhao Yang scored a goal, the fans in the stands started to cheer and shouted Zhao Yang's name.

Ledley's head coach was going crazy. He adjusted his tactics twice, but the opponents remained unchanged, that is, they kept attacking and scoring goals.

This tactic worked well, and St. Andrew scored three goals in a row.

If the Ledley team can't score, then they almost don't have to play in the second game, just throw in the towel.

The Ledley team adjusted their tactics again, this time they could only attack with all their strength.

But neither morale nor luck is on Team Ledley's side right now.

In the 60th minute of the game, St. Andrew's team intercepted the ball in the midfield, and captain Verano quickly launched a counterattack from the wing.

After the ball was passed continuously, the left back lapped and crossed to the penalty area.

This pass was a little close to the goalkeeper and was punched by the goalkeeper.

This time, the Ledley team watched St. Andrew's frontcourt trident, but after leading by three goals, the St. Andrew team became more and more relaxed. In this counterattack, even central defender No. 3 Mendes inserted into Ledley. The front of the team's penalty area.

Mendes stopped the ball with his chest and volleyed the ball into the net.

4:0

St. Andrew expanded the score again.

After the goal, even Mendes himself was stunned. He never dreamed that he could score such a beautiful goal in the play-offs.

After a brief absence, Mendes excitedly took off his jersey, roared, and rushed to the stands.

The fans in the stands also gave Mendes a warm applause.

Seeing the opponent's defender score such a beautiful goal, the head coach of the Ledley team was ashamed.

He understood that the opponent had gone crazy and couldn't stop it.

The score of 4:0 also foretells that Ledley's dream of promotion is shattered.

Then the Ledley team changed two forwards to play, ready to fight to the death with St. Andrew's team.

Pablo, who was the head coach of West Second Division, has rich experience and knows that his opponent is red-eyed. If he fights hard at this time, the players are likely to be injured. Therefore, he asked the players to shrink their defense and fight the Ledley team's counterattack.

St. Andrew's defense is very tight, Ledley's aggressive attack has not received any effect.

At the last moment of the game, St. Andrew seized the opportunity to score another goal. In the end, St. Andrew swept Ledley 5-0 at home.

After the game, the head coach of the Ledley team was very frustrated. He bluntly said that St. Andrew's team is very strong and is a favorite for promotion. It is already very difficult for the Ledley team to advance, but they will not give up.

The head coach of the Ledley team also mentioned Zhao Yang. He believed that Zhao Yang had brought about a qualitative change in the St. Andrew's team. The joining of Zhao Yang had greatly released the abilities of Verano and San Diego. It is difficult for any team to stop the Trident.

The score in the first game was too disparate, and it seemed that there was no suspense in the second game.

A week later, St. Andrew's away to Ledley team.

Obviously, the big victory in the first game made the St. Andrew team underestimate the opponent's strength, thinking that the opponent should have given up.

However, after the start of the game, the Ledley team broke the boat and fought with their backs, scoring a long-range shot in the opening game.

At the end of the first half, another penalty kick was scored.

Two goals let the Ledley team see hope.

But these two goals also woke up the St. Andrew's team. After the intermission, the St. Andrew's team fought back aggressively.The trident in the frontcourt showed its power again.

Just 5 minutes into the second half of the game, Zhao Yang broke into the penalty area and was brought down by the opponent's defender. The referee awarded a penalty kick and Verano took the penalty successfully.

The score became 1:2.

This goal shattered the Ledley team's dream of a comeback, and then the Ledley team struggled again, but they were unable to score again.

After 70 minutes, Verano made a cross from the bottom, and Zhao Yang scored with a header, and then the game entered garbage time. In the end, the away game drew 2:2 with the Ledley team, and the total score was 7:2 to advance to the next round.

After this game, the entire West C team regarded St. Andrew as the favorite for promotion, and Zhao Yang's reputation was also in full swing, as if he was the number one star of West C.
