“GOL！ GOL！ Gol! "Dagestino shouted the word three times, each time louder than the last. "What a beautiful free kick tactical coordination! Whether it's Isma, Yago, or Maikol Pihra, they're all a cover! Even Mata, who plugged in later, was a cover. The real attacker is Javier Blanco!
"That's right, this is a very beautiful free kick coordination! Li Ang must have put a lot of effort into this set piece. He knew that Maikol Pihra would be the focus of the opponent's marking, so he kicked a half high ball! "
Dagestino was full of praise. "Li Ang is really smart. He took advantage of people's habitual thinking! Any manager who sees Maikol Pihra in the starting lineup would think that Maikol would be the center of gravity for the header! Who would have thought that it was just a cover up! "
"One to zero! Sporting de Gijón has made a wonderful start! They've scored 19 minutes into the game! "
After the goal, Javier Blanco was very excited. He was the surprise player that Li Ang had arranged. Among the attacking players on the field today, Mata and Maikol Pihra were obviously the focus of the opponent's marking. Li Ang, on the other hand, had taken a different approach and given the task of attacking the most inconspicuous Javier Blanco!
The cheers in the entire El Molinon stadium were thunderous. The fans jumped up and cheered excitedly.
After all, only a small number of fans were able to come to the stadium to watch the game. At this moment, the fans in the bar in Gihón were shouting excitedly, "Goooool!"
"I have a feeling that today's game may not be as close as we thought," Dagestino said.
"What do you mean?" González asked.
"Sporting de Gijón is well prepared for this game," Dagestino said. "There's one more thing. We've been saying that this is a relegation battle. Leganés and Sporting de Gijón will have a fierce battle. They're evenly matched, but we've been confused by the rankings. In fact, Sporting de Gijón, or more accurately, the current Sporting de Gijón, is no longer a team that Leganés can compete with!"
"That's right!" In the bar in Gihón, the Gihón fans shouted loudly. They liked the way the commentator said it. They were unwilling to fall to the same level as Leganés. At this moment, the commentator's words made them feel very comfortable.
*****
Dagstino was right, Sporting Gihon's offense was not over yet.
11 minutes after the first goal, in the 30th minute..
Sporting de Gión scored once again. scored.
This time, Leganés was faced with their greatest enemy.
Their goalkeeper, Santos, was yelling in front of the goal, directing the team's human wall.
Santos was panicking. The reason for his uneasiness was that he did not know how to defend against the free kick. Based on the analysis of their manager before the game, if Maiquel Pihra was on the field, then the veteran's ability to head meant that he would be the one to head the ball. However, Javier Blanco's goal just now made them a little flustered.
They were worried that Sporting de Gijón would use the same trick again.
However, they had to guard against Sporting de Gijón's return to "normal" attacking methods.
Li Ang stood on the sidelines. He was a little proud. He was going to play a trick with a set piece today.
Leganés was the direct opponent of the relegation battle. The two sides were fighting fiercely in the midfield. Under these circumstances, set pieces were very important. Li Ang had anticipated this situation before the game. Therefore, in the past few days, Sporting de Gijón had focused on practicing their attacking routines for set pieces.
This time, Maikel Kobas stood in front of the football.
He raised his hand, and Sporting de Gijón's attacking players noticed his very subtle movement: he raised three fingers, which meant the number three tactic.
Kobas kicked the football up.
It was still half a high ball.
"It's coming again!" Leganés's defender was immediately alert. Gerváez immediately pounced on Javier Blanco, and then he was surprised to find that Mata suddenly rushed up and stopped the football with his foot.
Then Mata directly kicked the football to the side.
Jeffrey, who was in the starting lineup today, was very fast. He rushed up directly and then hooked the football into the penalty area.
Then, people saw Maikel Pihra jump high, overpowering Leganés's center back, Medica, and swinging his head to attack the goal.
The attention of Leganés's goalkeeper, Santas, was attracted by Javier Blanco's running position. By the time he reacted, Sporting de Gijón's goal was to pass the ball to the side. When the second pass attack came, he hurriedly stopped and turned back to the middle. However, his reaction was still too slow. He watched Maikel Pihra head the football into the net.
*****
“Goooool！”
"2: 0! 2: 0! Maikel Pihra! Maikel Pihra! He has all the qualities to be an excellent center forward! He made a contribution again! A very beautiful header! This veteran has scored again! " Dagestino heartily praised the 35-year-old veteran. "This veteran, who has wasted his career in the amateur league, is now radiating the energy of his youth! He is Sporting de Gijón's valuable asset. Manager Li Ang has dug up this long-buried treasure for Sporting de Gijón … "
"Two set pieces, two offensive routines, two goals!" González shouted. His eyes were fixed on the sidelines. Li Ang excitedly waved his fists and then tried to rush into the field. He was held tightly by his assistant manager. It was obvious how excited this man was.
This man must be very happy and proud. Obviously, set pieces were Sporting de Gijón's most important scoring method today.
"Today, Manager Li Ang did not intend to fight to the death with Leganés in the midfield. Their goal was to get set pieces and then use various routines to threaten Leganés' goal!" Dagestino said.
In the sky above the El Molinon Stadium, the passionate singing was loud and clear!
In a bitter battle that was considered to be evenly matched and a fierce battle between giants, Sporting de Gijón used two set pieces to take a two-goal lead!
Sporting de Gijón's fans were overjoyed.
The camera also gave a close-up of Li Ang.
Li Ang was in a good mood. The first half of the game had only been going on for half an hour, and the team already had a two-goal lead. The whole game had developed as he had expected before the game.
Before the game, he had repeatedly pondered and studied Leganés' games. He had keenly discovered that so far this season, Leganés had lost 45 goals, an average of 1.33 goals per game. Among them, they had lost as many as 11 set pieces. This showed where this team's Achilles' heel was.
Therefore, Li Ang had formulated a strategy to take down Leganés. It was to rely on set pieces!
Moreover, this was not a simple set piece tactic. Li Ang had designed as many as five sets of set pieces for the team. If one did not work, he would change to another. Just this changeable set piece tactic alone would make it difficult for the opponent to guard against.
Furthermore, he didn't expect Leganes to be so weak. Two set pieces, two goals were in his hands!
This feeling of putting in a lot of work, formulating a complete strategy, devising a strategy, and then achieving a successful result was simply too satisfying.
He had a feeling that he was in control of everything.
A relegation battle?!
This was just a battle that Sporting de Gijón had to face at the moment. Li Ang was very ambitious. Just as he had said to his players, we are now just paying back the debt for the terrible results of the first half of the season!
The battle with Leganés was just an accident!
Li Ang was now extremely confident that the team could avoid relegation. We are not really a relegation team!
