Chapter 879 Blame Benzema
Seeing that Ramos dared to provoke, this aroused the anger of the Aston Villa players, and there was a quarrel between the two players.
"Look at your people, what a mean thing."
"It's your people who are pretending!"
"Why do you open your eyes to see, is that a fake?!"
Aston Villa assistant coach Ceballos was roaring at the fourth official, "This foul is too bad, a standard red card action!"
The Aston Villa fans in the stands also uttered huge boos and curses to attack Ramos.
However, a scene that surprised everyone appeared.
The Belgian referee on duty, Blüch, did not show Ramos a red card, not even a yellow card, he just verbally passed the Real Madrid central defender.
There were boos all over Villa Park.
Fang Jue was also angry, and he couldn't care less about calming down. He protested angrily: Isn't this a red card? Isn't this a red card? Everyone in my family was shoveled!
"Mr. Fang Jue, please calm down. I believe the referee can see clearly." The fourth official tried to appease Fang Jue.
"Calm down!" Fang Jue said coldly.
In another change, Mourinho was applauding, applauding the referee's insight. He was really worried just now, worried that Ramos would be sent off.
Not even a yellow card now, which is great.
On the field, the team doctor made a gesture to Fang Jue, a gesture for a substitution.
Mane can't continue the game and must be replaced.
"Crap!" Fang Jue cursed, and hurriedly arranged for Hamei, who was on the bench, to warm up.
...
A stretcher cart carried Mane out of the field.
"How is the situation?" Fang Jue asked the team doctor with concern.
"Not too good." The team doctor shook his head with a serious expression, "Don't expect Sadio to play this season."
Hastily!
Fang Jue cursed again.
On the field, the Aston Villa players were also quite dissatisfied with referee Blüch's penalty.
"Mr. Referee, isn't such a flying shovel a red card?" Clement asked Blüsch.
"I didn't touch that guy at all." Ramos refused to admit his mistake, but shouted provocatively.
If it weren't for Modric hugging Suarez, Suarez would really go up and do it.
The referee Blüch looked serious and signaled Clement and the other Aston Villa players around him to disperse, otherwise he would draw a card and give a warning.
"It's gone, it's gone!" Fang Jue yelled from the sidelines. He didn't want to see his players take cards for nothing because of protests.
He stared at the field, but he wanted to see if the referee Blüch was indeed adopting this loose law enforcement style, not targeting Aston Villa, or deliberately targeting it.
If it's the latter, he's about to take action.
The game continues, Hamei is still warming up, and Aston Villa is temporarily one less person to fight.
Fang Jue called Clement's name loudly, and pointed to the right road.
Don't speak too clearly.
Captain Clement knew what to do. He commanded the defense to tilt to the right, temporarily making up for the lack of one man on the right.
Real Madrid obviously also want to take advantage of Aston Villa's temporary lack of one player and focus on the left.
However, under the united defense of Aston Villa, they did not get any chances.
On the contrary, Cristiano Ronaldo continued to take the ball and try to break through, but was caught by Clemente's suspected foul move, a very fierce tackle and even knocked the ball to the ground.
This time it was replaced by Mourinho roaring and jumping on the sidelines.
Because the referee Blüch also did not play a card to Clement, and also only verbally warned Clement.
Now, both Fang Jue and Mourinho can see clearly that the referee Blüch did not deliberately favor a certain side, but his law enforcement standards are obviously loose.
Even if this is the case, Fang Jue is still aggrieved because Mane was injured and left the field. Generally speaking, Aston Villa suffered a loss.
Ramos shoveled and Mane was injured and left the field.
Clement shovels Ronaldo.
The referee didn't play any cards, which aroused the anger of both sides to a certain extent, and also condoned the next actions of both sides on the field.
Even Ha Mei, who just came off the bench, knocked down Er Dayan in a fight.
During the final period of the first half of the game, the smell of gunpowder on the field suddenly became strong, and scenes of people turning their backs on their backs appeared from time to time.
Amidst the boos, the referee Blüch blew the whistle to end the first half.
...
At half-time, whether in the stands or in the bar, Aston Villa fans were talking about Ramos' foul in the first half of the game.
Although Clement shoveled Ronaldo, he also did not get a card.
However, in view of Mane's injury and leaving the field, the Aston Villa people certainly think they have suffered a loss, thinking that the referee has favored Real Madrid.
In the locker room, teammates went to comfort the injured Mane.
Such an important semi-final, but can only be injured and leave the field, no one will not care.
Moreover, if Aston Villa eliminates Real Madrid in two rounds and reaches the final of this season's Champions League, Mane will almost certainly miss the final, which naturally makes the young Mane even more sad.
Fang Jue took a deep breath. Although he was equally angry, as the head coach, he must be the first to control his emotions and regain his sanity.
"In the final stage of the first half, both sides made great moves and got angry." Fang Jue clapped his hands and said, "Pay attention to the second half of the game, I don't want anyone to get injured again, and I don't want to get too many cards , affect the following games."
"Then if it's Real Madrid, it's still a big move." Suarez said unhappily.
"How do you respond to others' kicks?" Fang Jue said angrily, "However, be careful, you can make deterrent fouls, but I don't want any actions that directly hurt people."
Although he was very angry, Fang Jue did not lose his mind. He did not want his players to be blinded by hatred.
Even against Barcelona, Fang Jue did not deploy a lethal foul against Messi like the coaches of some other teams did.
This is a double-edged sword.
If he asks so much from the players, the opponent will do the same to Aston Villa's players in turn.
For Aston Villa, Bell, Hamei, Modric and other players are all skilled, and they will suffer a lot if they fall into hand-to-hand combat.
In other words, as the head coach, he must make such a statement. As for whether the players listened, Fang Jue didn't know.
...
On the other side, Mourinho also found Ramos and asked him if the foul was intentional (injury).
Ramos naturally denied it: I went for the ball.
Mourinho nodded and said nothing more.
He is naturally not a moral clean freak, and Mourinho has also used lethal tactics when he was ruthless, but what he has to worry about is that if his side does too much, Aston Villa will retaliate.
Clemente shoveled Ronaldo, but Mourinho was taken aback. If Ronaldo was injured, Real Madrid's attack power would be greatly reduced.
In addition, players such as Di Maria and Er Dayan are also vulnerable to injury. We must try our best to avoid the worst situation. There will be a focus on the Spanish national derby with Barcelona on the weekend. Mourinho has to consider this problem.
"Being behind zero to one, we still have one and a half games to recover, so don't worry."
"In the second half of the game, we strive to score a goal. A one-to-one draw is our goal." Mourinho said.
He is very pragmatic and not greedy. A one-to-one draw with away goals is already a very satisfactory result for the two-round knockout round.
...
Just after the start of the second half, something unexpected happened.
Papastathopoulos fell to the ground in pain during a fight.
After the team doctor entered the field for inspection, he gestured for a substitution on the sidelines.
Day you fairy board board!
Fang Jue was so angry.
The central defender position has been wiped out!
Fang Jue asked the young central defender Nathan Baker on the bench to get up and warm up.
He rushed to the fourth official to protest the foul by the Real Madrid players.
The fourth official threatened him that if he continued to make trouble, he would have to ask the referee to come over.
Fang Jue walked away angrily.
He knew in his heart that Papastathopoulos was injured just now, which was barely a normal fight. Real Madrid player Khedira had no obvious suspicion of fouling. He was just upset and wanted to put pressure on the referee:
Look, look, two of us were injured and left the field, and you still haven't played your cards? !
"Don't use your tricks to put pressure on the referee!" Mourinho stood on the sidelines and said sarcastically.
I don't talk to scumbags like you!
Fang Jue turned his back and ignored Mourinho.
Aston Villa has one less player to fight for the time being, and Real Madrid steals the ball in the frontcourt at this time to form a counterattack opportunity.
Alonso's football was handed over to Er Dayan.
Di Maria immediately raised his hand for the ball.
Erdayan passed the ball to Di Maria who was inserted on the wing.
At this time, Papastathopoulos was injured and left the field with one less player. There was a gap in the middle. Di Maria keenly captured the gap. He suddenly accelerated and broke through directly from the middle!
...
"Middle! It's empty! There's no one there!"
Clement ran diagonally like a firefighter.
He no longer cares about Ronaldo on the other side. Even if Ronaldo is a threat, Di Maria, who is inserted in the middle, is not a threat. This is the most realistic threat, and it is a must for defensive players. .
Kyle Walker hurriedly moved closer to Ronaldo to make up for him.
And Strowman rushed out to defend Khedira who was plugging in.
Di Maria was waiting for this opportunity. Seeing that both Strowman and Kyle Walker were transferred, he flicked his ankle and pushed a through ball.
Benzema inserts alertly, ready to catch the ball.
Oops!
Milner rushed towards Benzema.
Benzema, who dribbled the ball into the penalty area, faced Milner and swung his right foot.
Milner quickly stretched his legs to block.
Pass the ball!
The Frenchman was quite selfless at this time, passing directly in front of the goal.
Then people saw Ronaldo rushing up, next to him was Kyle Walker, and the England right back was desperately trying to block the Portuguese.
However, it was still half a beat slow.
Ronaldo fell to the ground and shoveled directly!
After the football was shoveled, it passed by De Gea, and then flew into the net against the inside of the goal post.
"Cristiano Ronaldo! Ronaldo! Ronaldo!!! He scored a goal! One to one, Real Madrid equalized the score!" Madrid's commentator screamed excitedly.
Ronaldo got up from the ground, glanced at the football in the goal, turned around and ran, came to the sidelines, jumped, and performed his most famous and iconic celebration. More Real Madrid players came from all directions, excited Celebrate the goal.
...
Damn!
Fang Jue patted the sun visor angrily.
In the process of losing the ball, Aston Villa's defense had to take turns to make up for the lack of one person, which eventually led to the loss of the ball.
He gave Khedira a hard look.
It's all bad about the German.
And Benzema, you can shoot directly, why are you so selfless?
In Fang Jue's mind, Benzema can be selfish and choose to shoot by himself, why should he selflessly pass it to Ronaldo.
He thinks so because Benzema is entangled by Milner. Even if he can shoot, Milner has a chance to block the shot. No matter how bad it is, there will be goalkeeper De Gea.
However, De Gea is less likely to save Ronaldo's shovel shot from the center.
It's all so weird...!
Mourinho waved his fists high on the sidelines, celebrating the goal excitedly, one to one, equalized the score, and scored an away goal, his goal was achieved.
Fang Jue glanced at Mourinho and snorted.
It was not until this moment that Aston Villa completed the substitution. The young teenager Nathan Baker, who had finished warming up, came off the bench and replaced Papastathopoulos, who was already applying ice packs on the bench.
...
"If Real Madrid increases the pace of attack..." Werner said worriedly.
Nathan Baker is too young, and his partner Strowman is also a midfielder who plays as a central defender. Such a makeshift central defender partner can hardly withstand the impact of the attacking cluster led by Ronaldo.
"What are you afraid of? It's nothing bigger than scoring a goal!" Fang Jue spoke with anger.
He is now mentally prepared that Real Madrid will score again. The only way Aston Villa can choose now is to attack and try to score more goals than Real Madrid. No matter what, they must score more goals than Real Madrid. The game must be won, otherwise the game as a guest at the Bernabeu will be troublesome.
However, what surprised Fang Jue was that in the face of Aston Villa's reckless offensive posture, Real Madrid did not show an aggressive counterattack posture, but instead focused on defense first.
Ten minutes later, it was the 68th minute of the cum match.
Mourinho replaced Udayan with Marcelo.
Another two minutes later, Mourinho replaced Benzema, who was in good offensive form, with Higuain.
Fang Jue understood Mourinho's thoughts. Mourinho was very satisfied with the one-to-one score and did not intend to take any more risks in attacking. This was already reserved for the weekend game against Barcelona.
Yes, Mourinho is happy with the one-to-one scoreline.
Of course, he also knows that Aston Villa's improvised central defender combination is not reliable. If Real Madrid presses up to attack, there may be goals.
However, there is space behind Real Madrid's pressure, and Aston Villa will also have more chances to score goals.
If Real Madrid presses up and fails to score, but is counterattacked by Aston Villa and overtakes the score again, it will not be worth the loss.
He was pragmatic and chose not to take risks.
Of course, there is another consideration. As Fang Jue guessed, he began to think about the weekend game against Barcelona.
Real Madrid was satisfied with a one-to-one score, which made Fang Jue heave a sigh of relief, but he was also afraid of Real Madrid's strong offensive ability.
However, it also gave Fang Jue a headache. Real Madrid is based on defense, which also makes it much more difficult for Aston Villa to score again.
And the score of one to one is obviously not satisfactory to Fang Jue.
He could only continue to make substitutions, using up the last substitution spot. The experienced German veteran Klose came off the bench, and Abanglaho, who could not give full play to his speed advantage in the positional battle, was replaced.
Fang Jue is going to give it a go.
