Sporting de Gijón made a quick counterattack during injury stoppage time. Javier Blanco received Jeffery's pass and scored!
The ball went in!
Li Ang, who was on the sidelines, looked up to the sky and laughed!
Damn it, I've been holding back for the entire match. Now, I'm finally feeling good! So good! So good that I'm crying out!
Sporting de Gijón's people celebrated the goal crazily. The players hugged, shouted, and waved their arms enthusiastically.
Javier Blanco, who scored, knelt on the ground and then rolled on the ground excitedly.
This match could be said to be Sporting de Gijón's most difficult in recent times. It was acceptable that the team could get a draw in the away game. Under such circumstances, the counterattack succeeded!
Everyone understood the importance of this goal in the two-legged promotion playoff final.
In the stands, Sporting de Gijón's fans erupted with enthusiasm that could melt everything. They roared and shouted, and hugged the people they knew and did not know!
No one thought that the team would score at the last moment. No one thought!
With such a huge surprise, some of the fans were so happy that they cried!
*****
In Xi Hong, the bar erupted with roaring cheers. Countless arms were raised high, and countless glasses were clinked!
On the street, the red light had turned green, but the waiting cars still did not start. The announcer's roar came from the radio. "Goooool! Blanco! Blanco! He scored! Xi Hong! Xi Hong! Xi Hong! The great Xi Hong! One to zero! One to zero! We're in the lead now! Manager Li Ang is laughing loudly … "
On the street, in many cars, people stretched out their windows, waved their arms vigorously, and honked crazily!
Everyone understood that this goal did not come easily. They all understood what this goal meant to Sporting de Gijón!
Under such difficult circumstances, if they could win Hertha Félix 1-0 in this away game, then it would lay a good foundation for the second leg of the knockout stage!
Sporting de Gijón's El Molinon Stadium. After Li Ang took charge of the First Team, this stadium had begun to become the true home of the Devil in the Segunda División. In the second leg of the game, Sporting de Gijón's home ground, their fans felt a lot more at ease.
Of course, at this moment, it was only the second minute of injury stoppage time. The match still had three minutes to go!
Sporting de Gijón could not say that they had won yet.
However, at this moment, no one believed that Herta Fee could still do anything after suffering such a blow.
*****
The faces of the Getafe players were ashen and at a loss.
They could not understand or accept this situation.
Some of the players looked up at the sky, while others hung their heads and put their hands on their hips. At this time, no one urged the game to restart. It could be seen that the loss of the goal was a blow to the Getafe players.
"In the whole game, Hertha Félix shot 36 times, and nine shots were in the goal range, but they did not score a single goal!" Dagestino said. "Sporting de Gijón, including this goal, shot a total of five times. One shot was in the goal range, and one goal was scored!"
Dagestino was stunned when he casually said these numbers. Then he laughed bitterly and said, "I think I can understand Hertha Félix's feelings. Sporting de Gijón only shot once in the goal range in the entire game, and this shot became a goal! This is a huge blow to Hertha Félix, who bombarded the entire game. It also seems very unfair because they did not receive any rewards for their efforts. But this is football! "
González said with a smile. "There was a climax in the final moments of a dull game."
After a pause, González continued, "Lineker said that 'football is a game where 22 people play on the field and the Germans win in the end.' After today's game, it seems that we can also say that football is a game where 20 people play on the field and Sporting de Gijón scores in the end …"
Why was it 20 people? Sporting de Gijón had a player sent off early on, and Hertha Félix also had a player sent off at the end of the second half.
González's words were transmitted to thousands of households through the airwaves. In Sporting de Gijón, countless Sporting de Gijón fans shouted and cheered for González's words. "Football is a game where 20 people play on the field and Sporting de Gijón scores in the end." The commentator's words made them very happy and proud. The commentator's casual words later became the favorite phrase of the Sporting de Gijón fans. It also became the most famous comment of Sporting de Gijón under Li Ang.
*****
A minute later, the referee blew the whistle to signal the end of the game.
With the whistle announcing Hertha Félix's loss at home, the sky above the Alfonso Perez Stadium was filled with boos.
The camera captured the back of Hertha Félix's chairman, Torres, as he angrily left the seats in the chairman's box.
"The match is over. It was a dull match … a match where the initiative seemed to be one-sided, but the result was unexpected! Manager Li Ang's team played their sharp counterattack tactics to the extreme. They retreated to defend for the entire game, and a successful counterattack at the last moment of the game changed everything! The Hertha Félix fans will be very disappointed … "Dagestino said.
"This is football!" González stood up and stretched. "Let's look at the Sporting de Gijón people celebrating. Manager Li Ang's happy look must be so hateful in the eyes of the Hertha Félix people …"
"A score of 1-0 is an unexpected surprise for Sporting de Gijón," Dagestino said. "I bet if the score was 0-0, Manager Li Ang would be satisfied."
González laughed. "This is only the first round of the game. The Hertha Félix people still have hope. A 0-1 score is not the end of the world for them. Two days later, at the El Molinon Stadium in Gijón, who will be the last team to be promoted to La Liga this season will be revealed." After saying this, González turned off the microphone.
Seeing that González had turned off the microphone, Dagestino also turned off the microphone and asked his partner, "Do you really think that Hertha Félix will have a chance to make a comeback in Sporting de Gijón's territory after losing the home game with one more player in most of the games?!"
González rolled his eyes. "Who knows? According to mathematical probability …"
Hearing González say this, Dagestino also laughed. He and his partner had the same point of view. Sporting de Gijón had won 1-0 in such a difficult away game, and now that they were back at the El Molinon Stadium, Li Ang's team was closer to La Liga next season!
He stood up from the broadcast box and saw Li Ang hugging and celebrating with the players on the sidelines. Looking at his happy expression, it was as if his team had already been promoted to La Liga.
*****
"There's a team like this. Four months ago, they were on the verge of relegation. Four months later, they are the cup champions. They now have one foot in the La Liga next season … Their manager is a Chinese, and he always surprises us …" Dagestino said. Then he saw González looking at him with a surprised expression.
"What's wrong?" Dagestino asked.
"You've already turned off the microphone." González winked. "Did you forget?"
"Ah?" Dagestino said. "Haha, I forgot."
"Haha."
"However, what I said just now was from the bottom of my heart. Manager Li Ang really did a good job."
The two commentators talked and laughed as they packed up their things and looked at the field from time to time.
Manager Li Ang was surrounded by dozens of reporters. This young manager was so high-spirited, so … proud.
"The La Liga arena is already beckoning to them," González said with a smile, and his partner nodded in agreement.
