"Lago." He turned and gestured to Lago, who was sitting on the substitutes' bench. "Go warm up. Be back in five minutes."
David Lago was a little surprised. Although he had been "pardoned" by Li Ang from Kane and brought back to the first team from the reserves, he knew the mistakes he had made. With the manager's tough tactics, he was mentally prepared to sit on the bench for a long time. Even if he was included in the substitutes' list today, he did not think he would have a chance to play. The substitutes' bench still had the veteran Michael Pijla, who had been in good form recently. Not to mention, Michael Pijla could be regarded as the manager's direct disciple, and Michael Pijla's appearance order was before his.
But now he actually had a chance to play?!
Lago was still in a daze. Li Ang glared at him, and Lago hurriedly put on his yellow vest and rushed out.
Just as David Lago went to warm up, there was a change on the field.
The Zaragoza midfielder, González, pretended to pass the ball to the flank, but suddenly passed the ball over the top. It was indeed a stroke of genius. Sporting de Gijón's defensive center was in the middle of a collapse, and it was suddenly penetrated by the ball over the top.
Moreno suddenly plugged forward and received the ball.
The Milan outcast seemed to have no confidence in his shooting skills. After dribbling for two steps, he passed the football diagonally. Then people saw Villa nimbly plugging forward. He went around the back of Isma, who was defending him, and received the football.
"Beautiful! Moreno's pass! Villa receives the football, a one-on-one! "Dagestino shouted.
"Oh no!" Li Ang cursed. Isma's shortcoming of slow turning was revealed again when he defended against Villa. Li Ang could not wait for the transfer window. He urgently needed a change in the center back position.
Villa showed everyone his ability. Facing the attacking goalkeeper and former teammate Valencia, Villa directly rubbed the football with his left foot.
The football went over the head of Sporting de Gijón's goalkeeper, Valencia, and fell into the net behind him.
*****
“Goooool！” The Zaragoza local commentator, who had been holding back for most of the game, could finally shout, "Villa! Villa! He scored a goal! As expected of Villa, this ball is really beautiful! We have now equalized the score! We have to continue scoring goals! People of Gihon, the powerful Saragossa is not something you can resist! "
Li Ang could not hear the words of the Zaragoza commentator, otherwise he would have been hopping mad.
"Beautiful goal! González's pass was the stroke of genius in this attack. Moreno's distribution of the ball was equally brilliant. This was his ninth assist of the season! "Commentator González exclaimed.
"Villa was very calm in front of the goal. He broke through his old club's goal."
Villa did not celebrate after the goal. On one hand, it was because Zaragoza had only equalized the score and it was not time to celebrate. On the other hand, it was out of respect for his former club. After all, he was a player trained by Sporting de Gijón.
"That's right! That's it! Let the Gihon people have a taste of your prowess! "A smile appeared on Fernandez's face as he applauded on the sidelines, cheering for the goal. At the same time, he gestured for his team to persevere and continue to score goals.

There were some football fans in China. They were not only interested in the matches between the powerhouses, but they were also interested in the matches between some unknown small clubs. Wang Dapeng, a third-year student, was such a China football fan. In 2004, the Copa del Rey was not broadcast live in China. On one hand, it was because CCTV did not have the habit of spending money to buy the broadcasting rights. On the other hand, the Chinese fans did not seem to be particularly interested in the Copa del Rey. However, Wang Dapeng was indeed interested in the Copa del Rey. Not only the Copa del Rey, but also the Coppa Italia, Spanish FA Cup, German Cup, and other cup competitions. When he saw his friends, he often joked that there were very few people like him who had such a special hobby. In fact, he was an absolute hardcore football fan. He liked the five major European leagues, and he was also interested in the domestic cup competitions of the five major leagues.
In the dormitory, Wang Dapeng was fiddling in front of the computer.
"What are you busy with, Dapeng?" A classmate who was woken up by the urge to pee asked when he came back and saw that his roommate was still awake.
"I'm looking for a competition. Haha, okay, it's connected." Wang Dapeng did not look back and continued working. Finally, the internet was connected. He watched it directly on an overseas live broadcast website.
"What competition?"
"The Copa del Rey!"
"Real Madrid and Valencia?" Asked the classmate. Although there was no live broadcast of the competition in China, the students were very clear about the situation of the five major leagues. Naturally, they knew about this focal match.
"No, it's the match between Sporting de Gijón and Real Zaragoza." Wang Dapeng shook his head. Real Madrid and Valencia often played each other in La Liga. The two teams were old rivals. What was there to watch? He searched for the match between Sporting de Gijón and Real Zaragoza.
"Sporting de Gijón?" The classmate was interested. "The team coached by that guy named Li Ang?"
"You know about it too?" Asked Wang Dapeng in surprise. This classmate was not a football fan. He did not expect him to know the name of Sporting de Gijón's manager.
"Ha, who doesn't know the name of this liar now?" The classmate was also interested and came over to take a look.
"Liar?" Wang Dapeng shook his head. He had seen the report on Daily Sports, but Wang Dapeng did not follow blindly like the other students. He had his own opinions. Liar? Sporting de Gijón, as a Segunda División team, was said to be avoiding relegation. The team's choice of manager was very careful. Under such circumstances, he could not imagine that they would choose a liar as their manager. Even though he had never been to Spain, he knew that the Spanish had a prejudice against Chinese football. Under such circumstances, it was almost impossible for a Chinese manager to get to the manager's position by cheating. How could he succeed? Wang Dapeng thought about it this way. He felt that Li Ang had some skills and was capable. Otherwise, he would not have become Sporting de Gijón's manager.
However, he had a quiet personality. He had his own opinions. When he heard the other students criticizing Li Ang, he did not refute and did not voice his opinions.
Of course, he decided to watch the match between Sporting de Gijón and Zaragoza in the middle of the night. On one hand, it was because of his personal hobby. On the other hand, he was really curious. He wanted to see how good this Chinese compatriot was at coaching this team.

"What? You don't think he's a liar? "asked the classmate, Han Tao, in surprise.
"It's hard to say," said Wang Dapeng.
"What's hard to say? How can the report on Daily Sports be fake?" Han Tao retorted.
"Daily Sports even praised China's national football team to the skies." Wang Dapeng sneered.
The sound of the two people chatting disturbed one's sleep. The other people in the dormitory also woke up. They angrily asked what they were doing, not sleeping at night. Then, they heard that they were watching the match between Sporting de Gijón and Zaragoza. The other students also became excited.
Thanks to Daily Sports, everyone knew about the "liar" Li Ang's deeds. Now that they heard that this liar was coaching a team, they were all interested.
"Dapeng said that Li Ang is not a liar," said Han Tao.
"How can he not be a liar?"
"The newspaper said it was true."
"I didn't say that. I just said that I wasn't sure," said Wang Dapeng. He did not want to discuss this topic. He just wanted to watch the match quietly.
"Speaking of the newspaper, Daily Sports said that Li Ang is a liar. However, Huiwen Daily praised this person. They said that he is a hero who has achieved success in Spanish football," said a classmate.
"Huiwen Daily? What's going on? "asked Wang Dapeng. He did not read general newspapers, so naturally, he did not know about the report written by Hua Hua.
This classmate told him the content of the report in Huiwen Daily.
Hearing this, Wang Dapeng's eyes lit up. Compared to the report in Daily Sports, because he had his own guesses first, he now believed what Huiwen Daily said.
"Huiwen Daily is not a professional sports media. I still think that Daily Sports is right," said Han Tao. His words won the approval of the other two people.
Wang Dapeng was annoyed that he had been disturbed while watching the match. When he heard that his roommate had been opposing him, the honest man became angry. "Do you really think that the Spanish are stupid? Would a Segunda División team hire a liar to coach them? "
"Oh, it seems that our Dapeng is a hardcore supporter of Li Ang?" Han Tao said sarcastically.
Wang Dapeng especially disliked this classmate. When there was a slight disagreement, he would start to criticize and divide into "factions." Wang Dapeng had always thought that in that special era, this classmate would definitely be an expert at writing big newspapers, framing loyal people, and stirring up trouble.
He was unhappy, so he shared his analysis.
After a few of the students heard this, they were all deep in thought. They had been influenced by the report on Daily Sports from the start and had not thought about it seriously. Now that they heard Wang Dapeng's analysis, they felt that it made some sense. Just as Wang Dapeng said, the Spanish were stupid? At the crucial moment of avoiding relegation, they fired their coach and replaced him with a Chinese liar?
This was the truth. It had to stand up to scrutiny and thinking. As long as they did not blindly follow it, they would be able to see some problems.
*****
At this time, Han Tao suddenly pointed at the computer screen and shouted excitedly, "Haha, they lost a goal. Sporting de Gijón lost a goal. I told you, that guy is a liar!"
Then the few of them turned to look at the computer screen and happened to see the Zaragoza team celebrating the goal. Because of the speed of the internet, the goal had been scored for a few minutes.
"Looks like it's true."
"That guy is really a liar. His coaching skills are terrible. If he's not a liar, then what is he?"
Wang Dapeng was furious when he heard this. He sneered and said, "This shows that Li Ang is not a liar. His coaching skills are quite high!"
The others looked at this taciturn classmate in surprise. Zaragoza scored. Didn't this show that the guy's coaching skills were terrible? How come it was the opposite for this guy?
"Come on, Dapeng. Are you trying to cheat?" Han Tao said proudly, as if he was happy to prove that Li Ang was a liar and that he was a winner in life.
"Look at the score carefully." Wang Dapeng was too lazy to pay attention to this guy. He pointed at the computer screen and said.
