The green devil

Chapter 78 Desperate

Espanyol coach Sergio couldn't sit still.

When the strength is not much different, falling behind by two goals is almost equal to losing.

Of course, the most fearful thing is that the opponent will continue to score goals. If there is a tragedy like the last time against Real Madrid, Sergio's coaching position will not be stable.

"Press! Attack! Attack!"

Sergio came to the sidelines and shouted at the players on the field.

Unlike playing Real Madrid, facing Real Sociedad, Sergio still has the confidence and determination to counterattack.

This is an unexpected situation, but this accident is easy to deal with. They are two goals behind.

After kick-off in the middle circle, the Spaniard's attack started from Asensio.

Asensio was loaned to the Espanyol by Real Madrid and will return to Real Madrid after a year.

In other words, Asensio is from Real Madrid.

But this does not mean that Asensio will play soy sauce in the Espanyol.

If Asensio does not perform well in the Espanyol, maybe he will continue to stay here to exercise.

With his team down, Asensio was more motivated than any other player.

Asensio took the ball in the middle and attracted the defense. He patiently divided the ball and let his teammates organize the attack on the side.

When the ball was passed from the wing again, Asensio saw that the player in the middle hadn't returned, so he drove the ball straight into the penalty area.

Prieto came up to intercept, but Asensio slammed him past him.

Prieto grabbed Asensio's jersey from behind, and Asensio was dragged to the ground on his back.

The referee Pedro decisively whistled and gave Prieto a yellow card.

Espanyol gets a free kick in the frontcourt.

Seville and Asensio both stood in front of the ball, the two discussed it, and Seville handed over the penalty to Asensio.

After a long run-up, Asensio kicked a banana ball, bypassed the wall, and went straight to the upper right corner of the goal.

Lu Li, the goalkeeper of Real Sociedad, was already prepared. He moved quickly, jumped into the water, and hit the ball out of the baseline with one palm.

The on-site commentator sighed: "The arc of this ball is perfect, but the power is a little weaker and the speed is a little slower. But now Asensio is still very young. As his power grows, his free kick will improve."

Corner for Espanyol.

It was Seville who took the corner kick.

Seville drove halfway high, looking for his teammate Sanchez at the front point, Sanchez headed back and went to find his teammate Rocco who was waiting in ambush at the back point.

This time the corner kick tactic was very successful, every step was taken, but Sanchez was too close to the goal after the header. When Rocco grabbed the spot, the angle of the shot was very small, and Rocco headed the ball. on the post.

There was an exclamation at the scene, and the Real Sociedad fans covered their heads and shouted God bless.

Hitting the goalposts in a row has cast a shadow over the Spaniard's player psychology.

If God's gift is not taken, there will be disasters.

There are many examples in football matches where a goal cannot be scored, and then the opponent counterattacks the goal.

The Spaniards don't want this to happen to them.

Fortunately, after the ball bounced off the post, it was picked up by Espanyol striker Caicedo.

Caicedo was a little impatient, and took the ball directly with a strong long shot.

However, Kesedo's long-range shooting ability was limited, and the ball missed the baseline.

The Espanyol's continuous attack made the Real Sociedad frightened.

Real Sociedad is not a team that is good at defending. Their defense relies on the rushing and interception of midfielders. Coach Moyes only came to Real Sociedad from Everton in the middle of last season, and he did not build this team. Come up with a defensive system.

Being attacked by opponents continuously and hitting the goal post continuously, Real Sociedad also felt guilty. They did not dare to let the Espanyol team attack like this. Moyes let the players attack out, fight hard in the midfield, and attack the opponent to reduce the number of shots taken by the opponent.

The Real Sociedad team is good at melee combat in the midfield. After they strengthened the intensity of the midfield, the rhythm of the game immediately dropped, and the momentum of the Espanyol's counterattack was contained.

Look at 40 minutes into the first half of the game, Real Sociedad's midfielder recovered and reduced their offense. It seemed that they were preparing to defend the fruits of victory with 2 goals in the first half.

The Spaniard is still attacking, hoping to get a goal back and reduce the difficulty for the second half.

But the luck of the Espanyol team today was really bad. Asensio made a cross pass to the opponent, and then Real Sociedad launched a quick counterattack with a long pass.

Forward Jonatas grabbed the header, licked it, and passed the ball to midfielder Iljamendi.

Iljamendi and Jonatas cooperated tacitly, and the ball arrived. Iljamendi unloaded the ball on the back of his right foot, stepped forward, and entered the penalty area of ​​the Espanyol.

Before the defender turned around, goalkeeper Paul could only attack quickly to block Iljamendi's shot angle.

Although Iliamendi is a midfielder, he shot very decisively. He entered the penalty area, pushed his arch, and flew the ball from the feet of goalkeeper Paul into the net.

3:0

Real Sociedad almost sealed the victory.

There were thunderous cheers at the scene, and the fans of Real Sociedad celebrated passionately, preparing for the first victory of the new season.

And the Spaniards were in a desperate situation.

Espanyol head coach Sergio squatted on the sidelines with his head in his arms. He didn't expect to fall behind by three goals before halftime.

If the fight continues like this, it may be another tragedy.

Sitting on the bench, Zhao Yang watched the team concede from one goal to three goals. He felt extremely depressed. He hadn't even appeared on the field yet, and the game was basically lost.

What are you doing in the second half?It's an honor to fight even if you lose?Like against Real Madrid.

Sitting next to Zhao Yang, Diop said unhappily: "It's fine if I can't start, but you performed so well in the last game, why did you hide in the snow? You really don't want to win!"

Zhao Yang smiled wryly and said, "The coach probably didn't expect to concede so many goals."

Diop said in a bad tone: "It's better to act first, and we must send all the main force to strive for a good start. Now that we are in a desperate situation, sending you up can reverse it? If you are going, you will probably take the blame. "

Zhao Yang said: "There is still time. If a teammate can score in the last few minutes, we will still have hope in the second half."

Diop said full of resentment: "For these people on the field, it's almost like losing another one."

Zhao Yang and Diop were talking, and the head coach Serbia came to them and asked them to go out to warm up and get ready to play.

Are you going to play now?

Zhao Yang and Diop looked surprised. They didn't know what the coach meant. It was less than 5 minutes. What could they do?

The coach was beaten up?

Zhao Yang and Diop quickly went out to prepare for activities while thinking wildly.
