"What's that?" Banderas exclaimed.
"A dog?!" Li Ang was also stunned.
Just as the players from both sides were quarreling and clashing again, an uninvited guest appeared on the pitch.
A black dog actually appeared on the pitch.
Not only were Li Ang, the coaching staff, and the players on the substitutes' bench dumbfounded, but Fenerbahçe's side was also surprised. The commentator was also stunned.
This was the UEFA Europa League, the second-highest level of competition in Europe, second only to the Champions League. A dog suddenly appeared on the pitch during the game.
The appearance of the dog was so sudden that the stadium security personnel did not react. At this time, they realized the intruder and ran into the pitch in a panic. Catch the dog!
Fenerbahçe's Turkish national goalkeeper, Rustu, originally planned to run over to support his teammates. Halfway through, he saw the extremely happy dog running happily. Behind it were the battered and exhausted security personnel.
Rustu waved at the security personnel who chased over to signal them not to hurt the dog. Then, he stopped in front of the dog, intending to help.
"A dog! It appeared in the Saragoğlu Stadium! "
"Where did this dog come from?"
"It's incredible!"
The attention of the commentator and the fans was attracted by the uninvited guest, and the tense atmosphere of the game was even temporarily relieved.
"Rustu stopped in front of the dog. According to our understanding, the Turkish national goalkeeper is a dog lover. He has a Golden Retriever and a Samoyed at home …" Dagestino said, and then he exclaimed, "Oh, oh, oh, oh — God!"
The dog suddenly sped up and then bit Rustu's left leg. After the hit, it made a sharp turn and ran away.
Everyone was shocked by this scene. Rustu screamed and fell to the ground.
The security personnel were also stunned. After hesitating for a second, they continued to catch the dog. As for Rustu, Fenerbahçe's team doctor was running over like crazy.
*****
"Rustu was bitten!"
"He's seriously injured. It looks like the bite was very strong!"
"This is really unbelievable. A dog actually broke into the field and bit the home team's players."
"This will definitely become the most famous game in the history of the UEFA Europa League, not because of the score of 4: 1, nor because of the quarrel before the game, but because of a dog murderer."
The English commentator and former England national football player Gary Lineker, who was commentating for the English fans, showed off his erudition. "In fact, as we can see, sometimes there will be uninvited guests on the field, such as dogs. There was a precedent for this. In 1970, a dog suddenly appeared on the field during a game in the English Football League Fourth Division. The game did not stop because of this, and the dog kept running after the ball. Just as the Brentford goalkeeper, Chick Brodie, received a pass from the defender, something unfortunate happened. He was viciously bitten by the dog on his left leg and fell to the ground. After retiring, Brody became a taxi driver. Recalling the past, he said, "That dog was very small, but that bite was very solid." I think Rustu's feelings today are similar to Brody's. Maybe they will have a chance to sit down for a cup of coffee and exchange their experiences. "
"Of course, this is really unfortunate." Lineker then said, "I hope Rustu is okay."
The field was a mess. The players from both sides, who were at daggers drawn and looked like they were going to fight, dispersed. Fenerbahçe's players worriedly went to ask about Rustu's injury. On Sporting de Gijón's side, captain Hierro also went to ask about it and expressed his concern.
Sporting de Gijón's players were stunned and did not know whether to laugh or cry. This scene was really too mysterious. Who would have thought that something like this would happen?
The referee, Tomasson, had a strange expression on his face. Perhaps this was the most unbelievable thing that had happened in a game that he had refereed.
"The referee, Tomasson, is dumbfounded. Perhaps he should show the attacker a red card," Dagstino said.
"Then they have to catch the perpetrator first!" González said.
The two Spanish commentators did not seem to have much pity or sympathy.
*****
When Fenerbahçe's team doctor rushed into the field, he gestured to the side of the field to change players. Being bitten by a dog was different from being tackled by a player. It was impossible to continue with this. The most important thing was to quickly get a rabies vaccine. Who knew if the uninvited guest who suddenly rushed out was a carrier of the rabies virus?
Fenerbahçe's manager, Dahm, looked worse than if he had eaten dog poop. What the hell was this? His goalkeeper was bitten by a dog that came out of nowhere during the game! Bitten!
Li Ang was also stunned. Not only because of the unbelievable scene on the field, but also because in his mind, there was a notification that the [Beginner's Transference of Misfortune] skill had run out.
If he remembered correctly, less than half a minute after Rustu was bitten by the dog, the system notified him that the time was up.
Li Ang's expression was one of shock. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. He had to wonder if Rustu's unlucky trip had something to do with the system, even though he did not have any evidence to prove it.
This matter was too inconceivable.
*****
Fenerbahçe was forced to make a substitution. The 23-year-old goalkeeper, Volkan Demirel, came on as a substitute.
Li Ang thought about the information of this substitute goalkeeper. Demirel was a player cultivated by Fenerbahçe. He was Rustu's substitute in the team. If he remembered correctly, in the future, Demirel would not only take Rustu's position in Fenerbahçe, but also the main position in the Turkey national team from the old Rustu. He would become Turkey's first choice goalkeeper in the 2008 UEFA European Championship.
Of course, this was referring to Demirel a few years later. The growth of an excellent goalkeeper was the growth and improvement from the loss of goals and tribulations.
Generally speaking, a substitute goalkeeper had to sit on the bench for 90 minutes. It was unlikely that he would be mentally or physically ready to play in a game. Demirel was now "in danger" and came on as a substitute. Demirel might not be fully prepared. This was something that Sporting de Gijón could take advantage of.
"Shoot when you have the chance!" Li Ang immediately gave this tactical instruction to his players. The goalkeeper's position was special. If other positions were not prepared, there might be time to ease the situation. However, if the goalkeeper was not prepared, one mistake would be fatal.
At this time, the security guards who had chased the dog walked past the sidelines resentfully. The camera was aimed at them. Obviously, everyone was concerned about the fate of the dog.
"They didn't catch it." Banderas almost laughed out loud.
Yes, they did not catch it. The two Turkish security guards tried their best but they did not catch the dog. Not only them, but there were also people on the sidelines who were chasing and intercepting the dog. However, the result was that they did not catch it. The dog was gone.
"Maybe it's a Spanish dog." Li Ang laughed and joked.
*****
Rustu was not on the bench. He was directly taken off the field on a stretcher and went to the hospital. The Turkish national goalkeeper might be the first and only player in European history to be injured by an animal rushing into the field.
However, it was clear that Rustu did not want to be a part of such "glorious history." Fenerbahçe's face was ugly. He felt ashamed.
Li Ang asked the players to shoot when they had the chance to create trouble for the Turkish substitute goalkeeper, Demirel.
Facts quickly proved that his request and adjustment were extremely effective.
In the 79th minute of the game, Ivanović suddenly kicked a long shot. Demirel's hand shape was obviously wrong. He did not pounce the football towards the end line. Instead, he hit the football towards the goal, which gave Ribéry a chance to shoot.
"Chance! Ribéry! "
Faced with such an opportunity, the French youth would never miss it. He rushed in front of Baris, who was about to break the siege, and pushed the football into the empty goal with a shot.
“Goooool!”
"Ribéry! This is the fifth! The fifth! Gijon is leading Fenerbahçe 5: 1 in the away game! "
"Unbelievable score! 5:1! Demirel made a save, and Ribéry scored from the rebound! "
Li Ang waved his arms vigorously on the sidelines and shouted, "Oh yeah!". His judgment was correct. Demirel was not prepared to play at all. He did not warm up well, and he was not mentally prepared. The hand shape he used to pounce on the ball was obviously wrong. This could be said to be a low-level mistake by a goalkeeper.
"5: 1! A score that none of us expected! " Dagestino said, "Fenerbahçe is really unlucky. Sporting de Gijón scored five goals, and their goalkeeper was attacked. The perpetrator was a dog."
In the Iberian Peninsula, the fans of Sporting Gijón and other Spanish fans who were sitting in front of their televisions burst into laughter when they heard Dagestino's words. They did not have any sympathy. They only knew how to gloat.
*****
Ribéry's goal was a huge blow to the tough Fenerbahçe. The score of 1: 5 made them desperate.
And Rustu's strange injury just now seemed to have disturbed them. In the following game, their intentional injury behavior was restrained. This was really strange.
Li Ang continued to make substitutions. He replaced the scorer, Di Natale, with the veteran, Chiesa.
Sporting de Gijón's sixth goal came in the 89th minute of the game.
Chiesa sent a wonderful pass. Benzema cut in and dribbled the ball directly into the penalty area.
Paris came up to intercept Benzema.
Fenerbahçe's goalkeeper, Demirel, was ready.
It looked like Benzema had no space to shoot.
At this time, the 17-year-old French boy looked behind the goal and his expression suddenly changed.
"DOG!" Benzema suddenly uttered an English word that most people could understand.
Almost like a conditioned reflex, Paris and Demirel subconsciously looked back. This was the opportunity. Benzema moved the ball horizontally, dodged the gap, and directly shot a low shot.
They turned their heads to look, but saw nothing. Demirel, who realized that he was fooled, looked back and saw the football passing by his feet. He had no time to do anything.
*****
“Goooool!”
"Benzema's goal! 6: 1! 6: 1! Gihon people are crazy! "
"Benzema! Benzema! The young French boy scored a brace! His performance is really amazing! "
"Lyon team must be regretting it now! They have been kidnapped by Li Ang. What an outstanding talent! "
The commentator was full of praise for Benzema, who scored the goal.
However, in the stadium, there was almost a full-scale fight.
Fenerbahçe's goalkeeper, Demirel, rushed to Benzema like crazy. He waved his fists. If the 191cm tall man's fists hit, it would be terrible.
Fortunately, Benzema had already run away to celebrate the goal, and Demirel was also stopped by other Sporting de Gijón players. The other Turkish players also quickly hugged Demirel. They did not know what happened and did not understand why Demirel went crazy.
Only Paris knew that the Fenerbahçe defender explained to his teammates what happened with a look of grief and indignation.
At this time, the other Fenerbahçe players looked at Benzema with anger, or to be exact, grief and indignation.
The referee did not consider the cause and effect of this matter. What he saw was Fenerbahçe's goalkeeper, Demirel, waving his fists to hit Benzema after Benzema scored the goal.
Red card!
The referee, Tomasson, showed the red card to Demirel directly.
The young goalkeeper, Demirel, who replaced Rustu, who was injured by the dog attack, was sent off with a red card in the 90th minute of the game.
"What happened? Demirel tried to attack Benzema and was sent off with a red card by the referee. "
"Fenerbahçe now has two players sent off with a red card. They have 9 to 11, and the score is 1 to 6!"
"The Turks suffered a crushing defeat!"
*****
Li Ang felt a little strange. He did not understand what was wrong with the substitute Fenerbahçe's goalkeeper, Demirel. He actually wanted to punch someone. He took the ruby card and left decisively.
This was a good thing.
Rustu was injured, and Demirel was sent off with a red card. Li Ang doubted whether Fenerbahçe could still get a starting goalkeeper and a substitute goalkeeper in the second leg of the game.
Three minutes later, the referee, Tomasson, blew the whistle to end the game. Fenerbahçe lost 1: 6 at home to Sporting de Gijón.
A score that no one expected before the game.
The Saragoglu Stadium was filled with boos.
Li Ang looked up at the banner in the middle of the stadium. His face was full of undisguised pride.
On the field, although the game was over, the angry Fenerbahçe players seemed to want to find trouble with Benzema. Li Ang did not have time to enjoy the feeling of a big victory. He hurriedly asked the players to leave the field and leave this troublesome place.
The riot police raised their shields. Li Ang led his players, bent over, and fled in a panic. Above their heads, all kinds of debris smashed on the shields, making a smacking sound.
Behind them, the electronic scoreboard of the Saragoglu Stadium faithfully recorded what happened:
Fenerbahçe 1: 6 Sporting de Gijón!
PS: Congratulations to the China team for winning the game. I'm very excited. My friends in the group said that they have to update. They have to go for a colonoscopy on Friday, so they can't explode. Sorry. I haven't eaten for a day. I'm dizzy from hunger.
