Chapter 20 A Good Show

Osasuna's head coach, Miguel Angel Lotina, stood on the sidelines with a serious look on his face.

He was also taken by surprise when Getafe hit his side hard with two goals in three minutes.

With Osasuna leading Getafe by two goals, Lotina thought his side had won and he began to think about the next game. When the club invited him to coach this season, they made it very clear-the task of Osasuna this season is to return to the first division. Long enough to sink in the league.

Today, Osasuna ranks first, but this ranking is not guaranteed. First of all, Las Palmas, which is ranked second, is chasing closely, and secondly, the points gap between them and Villarreal, Salamanca, Lleida, and Levante behind them is not very obvious.

Apart from this round of the league, there are still nine rounds. A lot can happen in nine league rounds.

So for a while, his attention was not on this game at all. He didn't think that a group of lost dogs led by the young and excessive Chinese coach could bring any threat to Osasuna at the El Sardar Stadium .

Unexpectedly, when he was wandering, Getafe suddenly showed his power, and it took only three minutes for Osasuna's two-goal lead to disappear!

After he reacted, he was angry.

Osasuna will never accept the result of being drawn by a relegated team at home!

And in order to upgrade, this point is meaningless to Osasuna, he doesn't want anything except three points.

So he quickly adjusted his tactics, replaced the exhausted players, and replaced them with new attacking forces. He planned to complete his work in one battle in the last ten minutes and kill Getafe!

But when Osasuna began to bombard indiscriminately, his expression became more and more dignified.

It's been five minutes and his team still hasn't scored!

Only then did he realize that Getafe in front of him might not be a bone to chew on...

When Osasuna adjusted his tactics and began to storm Getafe, the commentator Klespo asserted that Osasuna, who was going all out, would soon equalize the score.

But now he shut up. It's been a long time since he said something as idiotic as "Osasuna could score anytime".

He began to praise Getafe's defense instead—although he really didn't want to praise the Chinese coach, but the fact was right in front of him, and he couldn't turn a blind eye.

Of course, he could say it was due to the tenacity of the Getafe players...

"Getafe's players defend very hard! As if this is a game that is directly related to their relegation, if they lose they will be relegated immediately..."

But in fact Getafe's players on the field know best.

When Osasuna began to attack at full strength, Getafe's players also panicked, fearing that the defense would be penetrated.

But after they held on for a few minutes, they found that the situation was quietly changing.

When they defended as required by the new head coach in training, they found that the defensive pressure they faced was actually not that great.

On the contrary, the Osasuna players seemed very uncomfortable.

Because Getafe's defense is tougher than they thought!

Almost every inch of ground was not conceded. From the midfield to Getafe's big penalty area, Osasuna's offensive advancement was slow and often faced the danger of conceding the ball.

Getafe's three defensive midfielders tirelessly ran and intercepted on the court, which caused a lot of trouble for Osasuna's offense.

Especially the young midfielder, who has just been replaced, has good physical strength, far better than those Osasuna players who have been on the court for more than 80 minutes.

At this time, all Getafe defensive players on the field,

They were all shocked inside—they never expected that the defense that the head coach asked them to practice hard for a week would come in handy so soon!

When they are not afraid of physical confrontation, the opponent will be defeated. When they put on a desperate posture, the opponent can only cross the transfer and avoid them.

This kind of discovery shocked them and surprised them, and then naturally brought them endless confidence-the team that ranks first in the second division will also be afraid of us!

Chang Sheng watched what he was training in off the court directly reflected on the court, reflecting the value, and his heart was full of a sense of accomplishment.

He feels that he is now a real professional coach!

But he didn't care about being happy for too long, and soon this joy was suppressed by tension.

The end of the game is getting closer and closer, and Osasuna's offensive is still very strong, and it has no intention of weakening. And Getafe haven't had a chance to attack yet.

If this continued until the end of the game, his desire to win would be in vain.

Although for many people, they will feel that this inexperienced rookie coach leads a team on the verge of relegation to play the first game, and they can draw with the first place in the away game, especially when they are still two behind. What he did with the ball is already remarkable, and he should be very contented.

But Chang Sheng is not satisfied, not at all.

He never talks nonsense, he does what he says, he said he wants to come here to win, then he must win!

But now he has no other choice but to be a spectator on the sidelines.

Carlos Campo was his first substitution of the game, and he does not intend to use the remaining two substitutions. Because he is no one to use. The strongest lineup he can accept is these people on the court.

He has no choice for the rest. The people sitting on the bench are either not strong enough, or they are not happy with him at all, and they don't know how to cooperate with him.

He played all the cards that should be played, and said all the things that should be said, and then he can only watch the players themselves play.

He felt that as a head coach, he was not as omnipotent as he thought before. There are also times when there is nothing you can do.

He clenched his fists and was competing with himself, as if this could help the team win.

Not only him, Manuel Garcia was standing next to him, just as nervous as he was.

Now he can't wait for the team to win. As for things like treats... If a meal can get back three points, he doesn't mind asking everyone to have a meal after every game day.

The two stood on the sidelines together, next to each other.

Rudy Gonzalez, who was sitting on the coaching bench, suddenly felt that he had become a marginal figure... In the coaching staff, he should be a man of the hour. He is popular in the team and has high prestige, and he is considered a veteran in the coaching staff. It can be said that apart from Juan Zamora, what he said was the most effective in the coaching staff at that time.

But now, he feels that he is already a marginal figure...

He was a little unwilling, and just like Chang Sheng, he clenched his fists.

As time passed, Osasuna's offensive remained undiminished. They were determined to kill Getafe before the end of the game.

For them, they once led by two goals at home, but let their opponents like rats tie the score. It would be a disgrace to Osasuna if they finally let their opponent leave the El Sardar Stadium with a point!

What makes them uncomfortable is that they tried their best to attack, but they couldn't break through Getafe's gate!

This unhappiness builds up with each failed offense.

Then……

When the game time came to an end, they became more and more anxious.

Sometimes, Osasuna no longer passes the organization meticulously, but directly comes with a long shot.

Such a shot is of course impossible to pose any threat to Getafe's goal.

Seeing this scene, Chang Sheng's body suddenly began to tremble.

Manuel Garcia, who was standing next to him, thought he was afraid and nervous, and quickly comforted him: "It's okay, Chang. They can't do anything about us..."

Chang Sheng said without looking back: "I'm not worried, I'm excited, Manuel!"

"Excited?" Manuel didn't respond.

"Because I've seen the door to victory creaking open..."

As soon as the words fell, Osasuna completed another attack. Their long-range shot did not miss this time, but it was too straight, and was directly hugged by Getafe's main goalkeeper Pablo.

Then goalkeeper Pablo glanced ahead, and he found that Osasuna even pressed the two full-backs to the frontcourt and did not return to the defense in time.

Didn't he suddenly realize that this is a good opportunity to fight back?

If you want to win... now is the time!

He quickly drove the football to the front field with a big foot.

When the football flew from the air over half of the stadium, under the gaze of everyone, it landed at Barado's feet.

Everyone's heart skipped a beat!

It's just that this heartbeat means different things to different people.

Osasuna fans instinctively sensed the danger.

Osasuna's coach Lotina shouted anxiously: "Stop him!!" The flesh on his face was shaking in anxiety.

He can't wait to rush to the field to defend himself.

Next door, Getafe's coach.

Rudy Gonzalez jumped out of his seat!

"I'm here to take away the victory!"

He thought of what Chang Sheng said at the pre-match press conference...

He couldn't believe that the result was actually going to happen!

※※※

"Getafe... Getafe's counterattack! A precise long pass! Pablo kicked the football very accurately to the feet of Barado! Now in the backcourt of Osasuna, apart from the goalkeeper, only the goalkeeper is left. Two central defenders! And Getafe...they have three strikers!! Three against two!"

The narrator cried out.

At this moment, such a possibility also appeared in his mind, that is, Getafe, who was beaten by Osasuna for 87 minutes and played for only three minutes, might really be able to play in El. Sardar Stadium took away a victory!

He couldn't believe it was possible.

A young and inexperienced rookie coach coached the team for the first time and played the first game, but he ran into the strong No. 1 in the league. One team is destined to return to the First Division, and the other team is destined to return to the Second Division B. Just like two parallel worlds, there should be no intersection at all.

But now, this rookie coach's first performance in the professional league turned out to be a classic show of a strong reversal with a weak victory!
