He saw the arc that Albertini kicked out. It was as beautiful as a falling leaf, as beautiful as a falling galaxy.
Li Ang stood up and stood on the sidelines. This time, he did not bare his fangs and brandish his claws in celebration. He just stood there and applauded quietly.
Even the corners of his eyes were a little wet!
When Albertini played for AC Milan, Li Ang was a high-spirited youth. At that time, he watched the games in front of the television. At that time, he wore the red and black number four shirt. At that time, he was still bitterly pursuing his dream. At that time, he was glorious at the top of Europe.
The past was like the wind.
Today, he was the manager of Sporting de Gijón. He was his player. He watched him score a goal that he had cheered and applauded for countless times in his memory.
There was a kind of feeling called sentiment …
Li Ang took a deep breath. He felt that the best thing he had done was to invite such a veteran to Sporting de Gijón. It felt good to be able to continue Albertini's career. He could witness and move forward together with him.
Of course, there was also Hierro.
Li Ang's feelings for these veterans were different from his feelings for young players like Ribéry.

"What a beautiful falling leaf! What a beautiful arc. " The commentator Dagestino's exaggerated aria was full of praise for the goal. "Such an arc, so beautiful. Albertini used his signature falling leaf to break through Zaragoza's goal. It's 4-0! They're now leading by four goals! "
"This goal is a huge blow to Zaragoza. They must have been dreaming of a comeback in the second half during the halftime interval. However, just a minute into the second half, they lost a goal again. This blow is really huge," González said.
The commentator was right. This goal loss was a huge blow to Zaragoza.
The Sporting de Gijón players celebrated the goal excitedly. They cheered and jumped around Albertini.
Not far away from them were the despondent Zaragoza players. The Zaragoza players who had been scolded by Manager Muñoz during halftime felt aggrieved, uncomfortable, and depressed. They were also unwilling to accept it. They also wanted to make a difference in the second half of the game. However, the pitiful fighting spirit and courage that they had just mustered disappeared in the face of this beautiful arc.
The Zaragoza fans seemed to be frightened by the goal concede. There was a moment of silence in the main stands of La Romareda.
Li Ang glanced at the stage and narrowed his eyes. Had these bastards finally settled down? Are you scared of being beaten up?
All of a sudden, a song came from the stands behind the technical area. It started from far and got closer and louder. It became clearer and clearer. Li Ang was not the only one who heard it. Even the players on the substitutes' bench and the members of the coaching staff stood up in surprise.
Then the sound spread to most of the southern stands. The Zaragoza fans' eyes were red, and they shouted at the top of their lungs, "I know a Chinese guy! He doesn't have enough to eat, and he doesn't have enough to wear warm clothes. He stood in front of my door, and he begged me to give him charity. Oh, oh, oh, I took out half a piece of bread and spat on it. He knelt down and said thank you! Oh, oh, oh, Chinese pigs. They're eating so happily! Oh, oh, oh! He's eating happily. Oh, oh, oh, oh! "
Li Ang's heart suddenly tightened and almost stopped beating.
He stood up and looked at the southern stands. That was the direction of the most radical Zaragoza fans. He looked at those people baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, roaring fiercely like man-eating beasts. No, beasts.
*****
Li Ang bit his lip. His breathing was rapid. He understood. He had always thought that these Zaragoza people humiliated and abused him because he led the team to eliminate them last season. Now, he understood. Perhaps that was the reason. However, the most important reason was that he was a Chinese. These radical Zaragoza fans felt that losing to a Chinese manager was a disgrace. They looked down on China's football and looked down on Chinese people. That was the reason. Otherwise, Zaragoza had lost to many teams, and they would not have been so humiliated.
Li Ang knew about the pride and smugness of the Europeans. China's football was indeed very weak, and it was no wonder that others looked down on it. However, he believed that his own ability could win respect and recognition. However, at this moment, the actions of the Zaragoza people made Li Ang angry from the depths of his soul!
Because these people humiliated and attacked him not only because of China's football, but because he was a Chinese. This was directly suspected of racial attack!
What do you have to be proud of?!
Li Ang gritted his teeth. Our country is like the rising sun, thriving day by day. Our compatriots live and work in peace and contentment!
Happier than you!
Spain had never had any conflicts with China. However, in this country, China was far from friendly. Spain was one of the countries in Europe that was more anti-Chinese.
Many years later, Li Ang understood that many Europeans did not understand the current situation in China. It was not that they did not know that Chinese people were living happily. However, they wanted to smear China because that would make them feel good.
Li Ang clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
*****
Assistant manager Banderas noticed Li Ang's strange behavior. Of course, he knew what the fans were chanting. He was also very angry. He felt ashamed of what the Zaragoza fans had done.
Banderas looked at Li Ang worriedly. At this moment, he was really afraid that Li Ang would rush up and fight with the fans. Although it was the Zaragoza fans who provoked Li Ang first, if Li Ang dared to make a move, it would be Li Ang's responsibility. The Spanish Football Federation would not care so much because the managers were strictly prohibited from fighting with the fans.
"Li, Li … Buddy, listen to me. Calm down!" Banderas hugged Li Ang.
Sporting de Gijón's players on the substitutes' bench also heard the radical Zaragoza fans' words. They were first stunned, then angry. Many of these players were Spanish players, but at this moment, they also felt that these Spanish compatriots had gone too far, too far!
Ivanovic, who was on the substitutes' bench, did not understand Spanish. He asked Alegre, who angrily told him what those people said. Ivanovic's face changed.
In the media seats, Mitra, the reporter from Voice of Gihon, listened to the shouting in the stands. His face was extremely ugly. He clenched his fists and then shouted at the local Saragossa reporter who was arguing with him just now, "Is this what you did?! This is just a game, just a game! "
The Zaragoza reporters faced the roar of the Gijón reporters and wanted to fight back. But hearing those shameful voices, they had nothing to say.
"It's too much," a Zaragoza reporter said in a low voice.
"This matter is getting out of hand," someone said worriedly.
*****
On the field, the players on both sides also heard it.
The Zaragoza players were stunned.
The Sporting de Gijón players were first surprised, then furious.
"What are you doing?" The Sporting de Gijón captain, Hierro, roared at his old friend, the Zaragoza captain, Savio.
"Fernando, I'm really sorry, we don't know," Savio said with a bitter smile and apologized.
Hierro snorted and did not speak.
The other Zaragoza players began to realize that the Sporting de Gijón players were looking at them with unfriendly gazes, or rather, they became fiercer and more ferocious.
"You will pay the price!" Carlos's expression was extremely ferocious as he roared at the Zaragoza player closest to him, Genrero, who was so frightened that he took two steps back. At that moment, Genrero really thought that the other side was going to eat him up.
*****
"This is a disgrace …" Dagestino sighed, not knowing what to say.
"Zaragoza will be punished," González said. It was not clear whether he was referring to the Zaragoza club being punished for the actions of the fans or the result of the game.
The camera panned to the away team's technical area on the sidelines.
Li Ang patted Banderas, who was holding him. "Pablo, I'm fine."
The latter still did not let go of his hand.
"I'm really fine." Li Ang smiled. "I have a big heart."
Banderas subconsciously let go of his hand, but he felt that Li Ang's smile was so cold at the moment.
Li Ang took a deep breath and glanced at the noisy stands.
"Pablo, have you heard of a saying?" He asked Banderas.
Banderas stared at Li Ang with wide eyes.
Then he heard Li Ang's words: If someone looks down on you, beat him! If someone curses you, beat him! If someone humiliates you, beat him! If someone is afraid of you, continue to beat him! Let them kneel down and sing the song of conquest!
Banderas was stunned. He did not understand, or he was not in the mood to understand, because Li Ang's silence made him feel worried.
At this time, on the field, there was a dead ball opportunity.
Li Ang walked to the sidelines and whistled.
It was incredible that in the noisy stadium, Li Ang's whistling was heard by his players. Perhaps the players were absent-minded and concerned about their coach.
Then, the Gihon players saw their manager raise his right hand to his neck. Then, he gave it a gentle tug …
A throat-cutting action!
*****
The players were stunned. It was inappropriate for the manager to do such a thing. It was too rude. However, thinking of the humiliation the manager had suffered, they felt that it was very normal and even a little relieved when they saw this action.
"The boss is so cool." Mata said with stars in his eyes.
"Shut up!" Carlos growled. "I'm telling you, if you can't score a goal to avenge the boss, I'll look down on you!"
Mata grinned and bared his teeth. The playful expression was gone, and his face was full of murderous intent. "Just wait and see."
