In the 61st minute of the match, Ruffalo's pass was blocked by Modric's outstretched leg, and the ball flew into the air.
Carlos and Balaje dashed towards the ball at the same time.
As he ran, Carlos looked at the ball in the air. His heading ability was his weakness, so he focused all his attention on the ball.
Then, Carlos felt pain in his heel, and his center of gravity became unstable. He fell to the ground as if he had been shot by a rifle while running.
Balaje ran after him, and when their bodies were parallel to each other, the Valencia midfielder stealthily used the studs of his sneakers to hook Carlos's ankle. It was a stealthy move, and he immediately moved away. When Carlos fell to the ground, Balaje took the opportunity to go forward and snatch the ball.
The move was so stealthy that many people had the misconception that after the collision, Carlos's body was not as strong as Balaje's and he was sent flying.
However, the referee's whistle was heard. He was in a better position, and in that split second, he saw Balaje's little move with his sharp eyes.
When the referee blew the whistle to punish Balaje for a foul, Ranieri jumped up from the sidelines, looking furious.
The Valencia fans, on the other hand, were unhappy. They thought the referee was biased towards Sporting de Gijón.
The Valencia players also surrounded the referee, protesting against the penalty.
It was no wonder that the Valencia players were nervous. Balaje had a yellow card on him, and if he received another yellow card, he would be sent off.
"Referee, our player did not foul!"
"That kid's body is not good enough. He can't beat Balaje!"
In the end, the referee did not take out a card. He only gave Balaje a verbal warning, which made Balaje heave a sigh of relief.
*****
Carlos, who was lying on the ground, jumped up. He was like an angry leopard, ready to charge at Balaje and cause trouble. That b * stard! Sh * t! He doesn't dare to play fair and square, but he plays such petty tricks! Coward!
Of course, Carlos, who was born in the slums, was not a kind person. However, he had never suffered such a loss before. He was in high spirits for this match, so naturally, he was furious.
Seeing that Carlos was about to rush over in anger, Baraha, who was still explaining to the referee like a very obedient child, walked towards Carlos after the referee let him go. He extended his hand as if he wanted to take the initiative to shake hands.
Carlos ignored the hand that reached out to him and waited for Baraha to come over.
Balaha shrugged, turned around, and walked back. He even spread his hands towards the referee, meaning that he was very friendly, but the other party was not.
Balaha's action made Carlos grit his teeth in hatred.
"That damned bastard!" He gritted his teeth and growled, about to charge forward.
"Calm down, kid!!" Ribéry had received the mission from Li Ang and was thinking about how to deal with Baraha. Therefore, he had followed Baraha not far behind and had seen the entire process. At this moment, he hugged Carlos. "Idiot! That guy is deliberately provoking you! Calm down, you can't be angered by the other party and lose your calm mind! "
Carlos did not listen and wanted to break free from Ribéry.
*****
"Bastard! You are the defensive barrier of the team's midfield. If you don't go down, how are we going to play? " Ribéry roared and growled. "If we lose the game, when we see Mata after the game, what should we say? Sorry, we lost the game, but we won the fight? Is that so?! "
Ribéry stared at Carlos with wide eyes.
The latter calmed down under Ribéry's angry gaze.
"Sorry … It's fine now." Carlos covered his head with both hands and scratched his bald head with his fingers. A clear scratch mark could be seen on his head.
Then, he raised his eyes and glared at Baraha angrily.
"Don't worry, leave that guy to me!" Ribéry said.
"I'll do it myself!" Carlos gritted his teeth and said.
"This is the boss's order. He asked me to deal with that guy!" Ribéry said. He was very impressed with Li Ang. How did the boss predict that Baraha would be Valencia's biggest move in the second half?!
When he heard Li Ang's order, Carlos grunted and kept quiet. There were two people who could really control him now. One was his sister, Alice, and the other was Li Ang.
*****
Li Ang saw everything on the sidelines. Although he could not hear the conversation between the players on the field, he could roughly guess what had happened.
Baraha wanted to provoke Carlos, and Carlos almost fell for it, but Ribéry stopped him.
Then, Li Ang started to think. Although he did not see Baraha's foul on Carlos, it seemed like it was done on purpose to provoke Carlos. From the very beginning, it was targeted at Carlos!
Valencia wanted to take down Carlos?!
Li Ang's eyes widened. He felt that he had grasped the crux of the problem!
That was Ranieri's goal. Carlos was Sporting de Gijón's midfield barrier, the wall that blocked Valencia's attack!
Now, Valencia did not think about how to climb over the wall. They wanted to use tricks to bring it down!
What a sly old fox!
Li Ang looked at his colleague in the visiting team's technical area not far away. Thinking about it this way, Ranieri must have known that Baraja had deliberately fouled just now. However, looking at Ranieri's furious look after the referee blew the foul, his acting was really good!
He looked like an honest man, but he was really cunning!
Li Ang had to admit that those who were able to gain a foothold in the football world all had some skills. Even the seemingly honest, good-natured Ranieri, who was always like a doormat, also had his cunning!
Li Ang twisted open the bottle of mineral water, tilted his head back, drank half a mouthful, and spat out the rest.
Since Ranieri had made his move, he would take it!
Fortunately, he was prepared!
*****
Then, Li Ang walked to the side of the field and roared, "B * stard, calm down. Are you stupid? Someone provoked you on purpose, and you fell for it!"
Li Ang's voice was so loud that all the players on the field heard it. Everyone looked at Carlos. They knew who the Sporting de Gijón's manager was targeting.
Baraha and the other Valencia players also looked at Carlos. They had heard that this kid had a bad temper. Now that he was being scolded by the manager, he would probably explode. It would be best if he talked back to the manager and got himself sent off the field.
The other Sporting de Gijón players looked at Carlos and then at Li Ang worriedly. Was it really appropriate for the manager to scold someone so mercilessly at this time?!
Carlos clenched his fists.
He looked very angry!
This made Baraha happy. Go, go, go, go beat your manager, beat him up!
Yes, beat him up!
Then, to everyone's astonishment, Carlos clenched his fists tightly and finally released them. He groaned in a low, muffled voice, "Got it!"
Carlos's voice was so soft that only the people within a few meters of him could hear it. However, Li Ang seemed to have heard it. He muttered, "B * stard, it's good that you know!"
Then, he nodded, returned to the technical area, and sat down.
*****
In the arena, Ribéry was so surprised that his mouth was wide open. He knew Carlos's temper. Although he was usually easy to get along with, when his temper flared up, he was a ruffian who was not afraid of anything.
Now, he was being scolded by the manager, but he did not explode.
"Boy, are you afraid of the boss?" Ribéry nudged Carlos with his arm.
"Aren't you afraid?" Carlos snorted and asked in return.
"I'm afraid!" Ribéry nodded and then asked, "But, why are you afraid too?" This meant, you're not me, you're Carlos, your temper, hmm …
Carlos did not say anything and snorted. Li Ang was his talent scout. It could be said that he had saved his career and given him the chance to play football. He respected Li Ang. Of course, he was also a little afraid. However, the most important thing was that the bastard who scolded him was his sister's boyfriend, his brother-in-law. Alice had single-handedly raised Carlos and treated him as both a sister and a mother. Carlos respected his sister immensely!
If he dared to stab that bastard, his sister would definitely teach him a lesson. He was afraid of Li Ang, but when his temper flared up, he might still dare to go against him. However, he was even more afraid of his sister!
Back in the technical area, Li Ang, who was sitting in his seat, snorted. Today, he had borrowed Alice's power and prestige. He was really worried that Carlos would be stubborn and not give him face. That would be terrible.
Tsk!
Then, Li Ang felt unhappy again. He was almost set up by Ranieri. No, he had to get revenge quickly.
He stood up again and walked back to the sidelines. He shouted Ribéry's name, "Franck! Franck! Franck! "
Ribéry, who was teasing Carlos, heard the manager's shout. He shrunk his neck, poked his head out, and waved his hand. "Boss, I'm here!"
Li Ang was so angry that he almost laughed.
He made a gesture to speed up the pace.
Ribéry's thumb and index finger made a circle, and the other three fingers held up, making an OK gesture.
It looked quite funny.
