The green devil

This is a La Liga team, even defenders, have the ability to score goals.

After the goal, the Espanyol players just celebrated for a while and continued to play.

Clearly, breaking the St. Andrew's goal did not give Espanyol much pleasure.

Now they just want to overtake the score as soon as possible, to teach St. Andrew a lesson, and let them recognize the gap between West Division B and La Liga.

The St. Andrew's team defended intensively and gave the ball completely to the Espanyol.

Facing a strong team like the Spaniard, this is the most sensible approach.

They want to grab the ball and probably give the opponent more space.

Breaking dense defense is a worldwide problem. Even for a team like West Division B, with 11 people around the penalty area, it is difficult for the Espanyol team to find a chance to score.

The Espanyol team continued to attack for more than ten minutes, playing St. Andrew's team like a small boat in the sea, which may capsize at any time, but they still couldn't break through the goal.

Looking at the St. Andrew's team, it seems that the more they defend, the more experience they have, and the more they defend, the more confident they are. The Espanyol team suddenly changed their rhythm, retracted their formation, and the pressure was not so tight.

St. Andrew's team had been oppressed for so long, and suddenly got the ball. They didn't realize that it was the opponent who gave the ball to them, and subconsciously took the ball and attacked forward.

The organizer of the offense is Verano, and Zhao Yang is the sword that tears apart the defense.

St. Andrew's team passed the ball continuously in the midfield, and the ball passed to Verano's feet. Verano saw that Zhao Yang was unguarded, and immediately passed the ball diagonally to Zhao Yang.

Verano didn't expect this to be a trap.

The Spaniard midfielder Seville deliberately emptied Zhao Yang, but actually kept watching the passing line between Verano and Zhao Yang.

As soon as Verano's ball left his feet, Seville flew up and shoveled the ball to his teammate Sanchez.

As soon as Sanchez stopped and passed, the ball reached the feet of striker Moreno.

Moreno tapped his heel and passed the ball to his teammate Bourgui who was behind him.

The St. Andrew's central defender fell to the ground for a tackle and missed the ball.

Burji received the ball and broke into the penalty area, flicked the ball, and swayed past the attacking goalkeeper.

But in order to avoid the goalkeeper, Burji dialed a bit too much. Burji caught up with the ball, and the angle was already very small.

Burgi pushed the shot reluctantly, and the ball flew out of the baseline against the goal post.

There was a huge exclamation from the scene.

St. Andrew's fans were taken aback. Fortunately, the shot missed.

If the Espanyol lead, the game is lost.

"Good defense!"

"The attack is timely!"

"Be careful, the opponent is trying to lure the snake out of the hole!"

The St. Andrew's players clapped their hands and cheered for themselves and their teammates.

In the face of a powerful opponent, if you want to win dignity, you must unite as one.

The St. Andrew team accepted the lesson just now. After kicking the goal kick, the tiger still didn't get out of the hole. They just passed the ball in their own half and did not take the initiative to attack.

The Espanyol team gave up the high-pressure press and saw that St. Andrew's team hadn't attacked yet. After they regained some strength, they then launched a second round of stormy attacks.

This round of offense lasted another ten minutes. St. Andrew's defense was still in a mess, but until the end of the first half, St. Andrew's team did not concede a goal.

Tang Duo, who was commenting on the spot, said in surprise: "A team from the Second Division B was attacked by the La Liga team for half an hour without conceding a goal. This is also a miracle!"

Li Hui said: "The dense defense is not easy to break, and the St. Andrew team has also gained experience and confidence in defense."

Tang Duodao: "It's okay to defend for three and 10 minutes, but the key is to be able to defend for nine and 10 minutes? Once the Espanyol team breaks the goal, the next one may collapse."

Li Hui said with a smile: "Maybe the St. Andrew's team will score again. Just kidding. In fact, for the St. Andrew's team, if they lose a few goals, they win. The important thing is the tickets."

Tang Duodao: "Indeed, the [-] tickets have been sold, and the price is double the usual price. St. Andrew's team has made a lot of money. I don't know why the Espanyol team is looking for St. Andrew's team to warm up."

Li Hui said with a smile: "Zhao Yang has to perform well, maybe after this game, the Espanyol team will take a fancy to him."

Tang Duo laughed and said, "It's really hard to say. Zhao Yang performed well today and even scored a goal. Boss Chen of the Espanyol team is also in the stands. If Boss Chen takes a fancy to him, Zhao Yang will skyrocket. "

At halftime, the St. Andrew's players returned to their humble locker room.

Head coach Pablo was already waiting in the locker room. Seeing the players arrived, he praised: "We played very well in the first half and we made a good start. I would like to thank everyone for their efforts."

Then set the task for the second half, "In the second half, we will still defend and counterattack. Try our best to keep the score of 1:1. The opponent will definitely counterattack wildly. We must hold on. There is no need to invest too many people in the counterattack. Mainly Zhao Yang and Santiago ..."

The players were also very excited. They drew with the Espanyol at halftime and broke through the Espanyol's goal. This was something they never dreamed of before the game.

It can be said that even if a goal is conceded in the second half, as long as it is not a big defeat, their performance is worthy of the [-] fans who supported them on the spot.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, the Espanyol team did not make any substitutions, and the substitutes who rested for 15 minutes continued to attack the whole army.

In the first minute of the second half, the Espanyol team completed the first shot.

This is a pass from the defender. After being punched by the goalkeeper, midfielder Seville stopped the ball in the chest and slammed it towards the goal.

Not to mention that the shot was too direct, it was still weak.

The St. Andrew's goalkeeper held the ball easily without falling over.

The goalkeeper kicks the ball forward.

The Spaniard's central defender successfully fought with Santiago and headed the ball back.

Zhao Yang was lucky, the ball hit him in front of him.

The chest stopped the ball, and the ball fell. Zhao Yang stepped on the ball, moved it smoothly from the heel of his left foot to his other side, and then walked forward with the ball to the left.

Zhao Yang's habitual "Cruyff turn" happened to escape the attack from the Espanyol's midfielder.

Santiago and Zhao Yang cooperated tacitly, and he quickly pulled to the side and took away a defender.

Zhao Yang rushed to the 30-meter area, and suddenly shot a "tiger-style" shot.

The ball flew straight to the upper left corner of the goal like a meteor or lightning.

This is a new skill that Zhao Yang signed up for during the holidays. Espanyol goalkeeper Bardi was unprepared. He thought Zhao Yang was not good at long-range shots.

After Zhao Yang kicked his feet, Baldi moved and flew sideways.

Baldi is a substitute goalkeeper in La Liga. He reacts quickly and moves quickly. The prediction was a bit late, but he still touched the ball.

But Zhao Yang's shot was too tricky, Baldi touched the ball with his fingertips, and the ball still hit the post and bounced into the net.

2:1

Zhao Yang's cold shot miraculously helped St. Andrew's team take the lead again.
