When he saw his team score, Salamanca's president, Hidalgo, stood up abruptly in the VIP box above the stands of the Hermandique Stadium, which even startled the old Arango.
Hidalgo was so carried away that he waved his fists to celebrate the goal, and he did not forget to shout words like "good goal" and "good job".
The home team's president, Mr. Hidalgo, was so carried away that he celebrated the goal in front of the visiting team's president, Manuel Arango, as if his team had already won the game.
Sporting de Gijón's president, Manuel Arango, was embarrassed and furious at this time. He knew that this guy did it on purpose, absolutely on purpose.
"I'm really sorry, Mr. Arango." After the celebration, Hidalgo seemed to realize that the visiting team's president was next to him. He apologized, but there was no sincerity on his face.
Not only that, Hidalgo also reached out to shake hands with the old Arango.
"It's okay, I understand." The old Arango suppressed his anger and said with a smile, "If my team scored, I would also be excited to celebrate. This is the charm of football!"
"Yes, yes! The charm of football, hahaha! "Hidalgo laughed, and his eyes narrowed into slits. He was very proud of himself.
The old Arango sat back in his seat, and his expression immediately darkened. He gritted his teeth and said, Li Ang, you must win this game!
Old Arango felt aggrieved. Now that Sporting Gihon had fallen, every Tom, Dick, and Harry dared to show off in front of him. This feeling was too … too unpleasant.

Li Ang, who was in the technical area, was furious when he saw the goal conceded. He waved his arm hard and then sat back in his seat.
He had always been worried about the position of the team's left center back. The left center back, Yago, had the advantage of height, reaching a height of 188cm. His header was good, but it also meant that Yago's turning speed was too slow. If he encountered a flexible player, he might not be able to keep up with the opponent's footsteps for a moment, and this goal was lost this time.
The Salamanca player pulled the ball, turned around, and passed the ball. The whole movement was very coherent, and Yago, who was caught off guard, had no time to react before he was broken through.
Looking at the Salamanca players celebrating the goal excitedly, Li Ang was silent. He glanced at the guy who scored the goal and recognized him as Salamanca's top striker, Kaka!
If you were Kaka, I might be afraid, but you're not!
Li Ang said fiercely in his heart.
Scotree looked at Li Ang. He wanted to say something, but he hesitated.
"If you have something to say, just say it, Jesús," Li Ang said, noticing his assistant coach's expression.
"In this season, we haven't won a single game when we're behind," Scott said, a little depressed.
Li Ang was taken aback, but then he smiled. "Historical data is useless to me. We have never used a reversal before, but we eliminated Aravis."
When he heard Li Ang's words, Scott felt a little better. He smiled and said, "That's true! I'm overthinking it. "
Li Ang smiled and did not say anything. However, he was not calm inside. He could now say these words to Scotree, which gave him a little confidence. However, he could not say these words to the players on the field. Therefore, the players on the field would definitely be affected by the goal concede. The players obviously knew the fact that they had never won a game when they were behind this season. Under such circumstances, some of the players might be distracted and be affected.
What Li Ang was looking forward to the most now was the arrival of halftime. He could lecture the players in the locker room, give them encouragement and encouragement, and at the same time make the necessary adjustments to the team.
In addition, he had another biggest wish at the moment, and that was to not concede any more goals at the end of the first half. The psychological impact and pressure of a score of 0-2 on the players was several times more than that of a score of 0-1.
Li Ang whistled, which was a signal.
The stadium was noisy, and shouting might not attract the attention of the players. It was much better to whistle.
Hearing his whistle, the players looked over.
Li Ang made a gesture to Juan Carlos and Marcos.
Seeing this gesture, Marcos and Carlos understood: the boss wanted the two of them to work harder, to fight harder, and most importantly, to strengthen the team's rear defensive line's protection!
There was also a need for tacit understanding between the manager and the players. Li Ang, Marcos, and Carlos, these two beloved players, obviously had a better tacit understanding.
*****
Salamanca's manager, Charles, was in a good mood. The team successfully broke through the opponent's goal and broke the deadlock. He believed that the following game would be better.
He was proud. The team's chairman, Mr. Hidalgo, had given the team the order to win, which was also a pressure for Charles. Now, the team had taken the lead and victory was beckoning. He believed that Mr. Hidalgo in the chairman's box must have seen it and would be very satisfied.
Charles made a gesture to the players, which was to make the players continue to work hard and strive to score another goal before the end of the first half to extend the victory.
"Salamanca has taken the lead. This will be the key to opening the door to victory!" Elstow said. "So far this season, Sporting de Gijón has not won a game when they are behind. This is really an embarrassing record, ha —"
One could imagine how angry the Sporting de Gijón fans in front of the television would be when they heard the words of the commentator they hated.
"This bastard!" Harvey Gradero slammed his beer glass on the bar and cursed.
"Glass, be careful!" Garcia, the owner of the North Bar, shouted.
"What is Li doing? The team is still the same. There is no difference from before, "someone shouted." I already said that the Chinese are not good. "
"Shut up!" Harvey Gradero shouted at the man. "When we eliminated Aravis in the last game, you didn't say that. You even praised Li for being very good."
"He played badly. Can't I say that?" the man retorted.
"What are you arguing about?" Bader Kurey roared. "The game is still early. I believe in Li. He must have a way!"
The people around also persuaded them to watch the game. They were all Sporting de Gijón fans. Watch the game and stop arguing.
"A bunch of fence-sitters," Reyes scolded.
Bader Kurey and Harvey Gradero looked at each other. Neither of them said anything. They were both a little worried.
The fan group they belonged to was Li Ang's most loyal fan group. However, some other fans were far from trusting Li Ang. To put it bluntly, apart from the fans who had been in contact with Li Ang for a long time and had great confidence in him, many fans who lacked understanding of Li Ang obviously had little confidence in him. The positive impact of the game that eliminated Aravis was weakening with time. If Li Ang could not lead the team to victory in this game, there would definitely be discordant words among the fans.
"What bad luck," Bader Kurey said. Bader Kurey said, "Little Mata had a high fever before the game, which directly affected the quality of our offense."
Many people agreed with his words. Everyone had been observing the team's training over the past few days. The young Mata played a big role in the team's offense. The little guy's ability was good, and most importantly, he was a player that Li Ang brought from Team B. He was familiar with Li Ang's tactics. With Mata on the field, the team's offense improved significantly.
Now that Mata had a fever and was absent from the game, the team's offense immediately dropped a level.
This was not to say that Mata was very good. The fans also knew how to play. In fact, the current little Mata was not much better than Rouben, who was in the starting lineup today. This was because Mata had a good understanding of Li Ang's tactics and could reflect the manager's tactical intentions well in the game.
"There is too little time left for Li," someone said in fairness.
*****
The fans continued to watch the game with worry and nervousness.
What worried them was that Salamanca had obviously increased the intensity of their offense.
What made them feel slightly relieved was that the two young guys, Marcos and Juan - Carlos, had built a wall at the defensive end. Marcos blocked the opponent's shots twice in a row at critical moments, while Carlos used his stamina to run and fight hard to contain the opponent's offense, providing great help to his own defenders.
Finally, when the whistle blew at the end of the first half, the fans breathed a sigh of relief. The team did not continue to concede goals.
At the end of the first half, Sporting de Gijón temporarily trailed Salamanca 0: 1 in the away game.
The live broadcast director was also very annoying. First, he gave Sporting de Gijón manager Li Ang, who was walking towards the players' tunnel, and then the camera immediately moved to the veteran player, Maikel Pihra.
"Sporting de Gijón is behind in the score, and their offense is weak," Elstow said. The commentator, Elstow, said, "The Chinese must be very worried. Where is the key to their attack? On this old amateur player? He can't really be counting on an amateur veteran, right? Hahaha. Sorry, I can't help it. Hahaha. "
Sporting de Gijón was behind in the score, and the situation was ugly. This also made the narrow-minded commentator, Elstow, seem to have "gotten back at him." In his words, he mercilessly mocked Li Ang …
"Bastard!"
"Damn guy!"
“****！”
“FUCK”
"That son of a b * tch!"
Listening to Elstow's words, the northern bar exploded again, and the fans cursed.
