Chapter 186: Advance to the final!

The midfielder went back to the locker room to make adjustments. Braga's morale was high and there was nothing to adjust in his play.
Just continue to defend and counterattack.
As long as Valencia does not score twice, then Braga will be able to go home with Europa League final tickets.
In the second half, the two sides returned to the court to change sides, and Valencia made a passive substitution.
Victor Luiz replaced the injured Ricardo Costa.
Valencia's defense line was adjusted, Lamy and Victor Luiz played as a center back, and Barragan moved to the right back.
The atmosphere at the Mestalla stadium was a bit depressed, and the home team fans were either expressionless or frowned as if they were gloomy.
Valencia naturally wanted to actively launch an offensive. Alba was still active on the left, but Braga blocked the 30-yard sector in front of the goal, making Valencia unable to break their fortress on the periphery.
In the 54th minute of the game, Braga's counterattack came again!
This time, Tang Hong came directly to the middle circle. When he backed up to meet, Albelda immediately stepped forward to the ball. Tang Hong knocked the ball back to Barbosa and immediately turned to move forward, and Albelda turned around. With defense, Barbosa crossed the ball diagonally to the front right.
Viana shortly sent the ball to the right wing outside the penalty area, and Limara came to the right this time in response.
When Lima made a pass from the bottom of the ball, Tang Hong rushed into the penalty area to grab the spot.
However, he ran a little too far, which caused his shooting to be unable to control the angle. He shot the football to the bottom line and fell to the ground in order to complete the shot.
After he got up, Tang Hong gave Lima a thumbs up, and the other party passed the pass.
The Valencian generals were quite frightened.
Braga's quick counterattack made them hard to defend!
Valencia needs heroes to come forward, but Canales, who played today, did not perform well under dense defense. In the 59th minute of the game, Canales tried to break through Custodio before the penalty area and was intercepted. Raja again launched a counterattack fast attack.
Barbosa passed the ball to the side, Ezier Gille stepped forward and sent a straight pass. Tang Hong stopped the ball on the left side of the frontcourt and dribbled forward. Albelda did not dare to help defend the sideline too much. In the first half The two misses were all due to him being driven to the wing and then returning to the penalty area. Because the distance was too long, Tang Hong was able to get rid of with a speed advantage.
When Tang Hong faced Barragan, he moved the ball with his right foot to make an inward cut. He only touched the ball but ran two steps, and he was in front of the ball!
Barragan followed Tang Hong to the middle, but when he noticed something was wrong, he found the ball behind Tang Hong!
Tang Hong stopped and twisted to make a breakthrough from the outside line. Barragan quickly turned back to the outside line, but unexpectedly Tang Hong pulled the ball with his foot and turned and walked inside, which happened to hit Barragan with a bad rhythm.
The moment Barragan was passed away, Valencia fans had a bad feeling again.
Braga fans are even more excited.
This is the show!
Tang Honggang drove to the left side of the penalty area and encountered Albelda. The other side did not have a side defense to give Tang Hong the space to play through the ball, but now he also played a role in preventing Tang Hong from starting in front of the penalty area. effect.
Tang Hong didn't make it hard, and directly knocked the ball across the middle of the penalty area.
Barbosa quickly followed up the ball and volleyed, and Parejo's slow return to blockade did not work.
The football went straight to the upper left position of the goal center, goalkeeper Alves flew to save and save the ball with a single palm above the crossbar!
Valencia fans made a false alarm, but they couldn't calm down. The trend of this scene looks like Valencia, not to mention equalizing the score, it would be difficult for Valencia to defend and not lose the ball!
Emery clapped on the sidelines to encourage the team to improve performance, but it didn't seem to work.
Five minutes later, Braga's fast break came back. Viana sent a precise mid-to-long pass from the right side of the backcourt. Lima knocked the ball back under Rami's close defense. Tang Hong came to the middle to follow up and stop and accelerate to get rid of After Albelda was dropped, CHOP cross-cut and crossed Victor Luiz just to the right of the penalty area. Parejo, who had returned to the defense, brought Tang Hong down from behind.
Tang Hong got up by Limara, he saw that the referee showed Parejo a yellow card.
Braga took a direct free kick and the position was right in front of the penalty area. This was not a usual starting position for Tang Hong, but he still made a direct shot.
When he kicked the ball out, he knocked the ball horizontally, and Amorim, who came up from behind, came and shot!
Watching the football go straight to the bottom right corner of the goal, but in the end it flew out of the bottom line by rubbing the outside of the goal post.
Amorim let out a long sigh, and Tang Hong raised his eyebrows without any regrets.
Valencia saw less than 25 minutes left in the game. Emery made a substitution and Yaltim also made a substitution.
Mosolo and Salino replaced Lima and Viana.
Tang Hong stayed on the front line to retain the threat of counterattack.
Valencia's offense is even more difficult. Braga is now laying down layers of defense to protect the goal. In addition to the influence of the passage of time, Valencia's performance has become more anxious and errors are constantly increasing.
Tang Hong looked quite laid-back on the court. When Valencia attacked, he was walking, walking from a tightly defended place to near an area where the defense was looser, and he could directly turn around and accelerate to form an offensive dangerous line.
When Braga controls the ball, he will start suddenly.
Most of the sent by Braga from the backcourt could not be directly received by him, but this was enough to deter Valencia's defense.
After 75 minutes of the game, Valencia gradually increased troops to the front.
Braga's counterattack threat is also growing.
In the 78th minute of the game, when Salino made a long pass from the backcourt to the frontcourt, Tang Hong was the first to touch the ball in a dash forward. As soon as he stopped the ball on the spot, he found Victor Luiz coming up from behind, and he turned and used it. The heel knocks the ball forward.
When the football crossed Victor Luiz's head, Tang Hong had passed him, and Victor Luiz pushed Tang Hong's back decisively when he turned around.
Tang Hong naturally fell to the ground, and Victor Luiz raised his hands innocently after hearing the referee's whistle.
The referee walked to Victor Luiz and pulled out a dazzling red card!
The Valencia fans were shocked!
Victor Luiz was also extremely surprised, and then interceded with the referee for a long time, but only saw the referee's ruthless gesture, pointing to the sidelines to signal him to leave the field!
In order not to waste Valencia’s time to equalize, Victor Luiz walked to the sidelines. When Emery walked over to try to comfort him, Victor Luiz shook his head at Emery with a sad expression: "We can’t limit it at all. That Chinese forward, now we have paid the price! Fuck!"
What does it mean if Valencia can't equalize?
They will lose their tickets to the finals!
Because of this, Victor Luiz's mentality naturally exploded.
"Victor Luiz, who was replaced by Valencia in the second half, was sent off by the referee for a foul against Tang Hong!
It was indeed a foul that he pushed Tang Hong behind his back. After all, there was no reason to shovel, so he could only foul him.
If Tang Hong ran two more moves to control the ball, it would be a single move. Therefore, this is an excellent opportunity to attack.
Valencia are now playing one less player and the score is still behind. If they can equalize the score, then a miracle is absolutely necessary! "
No one can see that Tang Hong is in good shape today, mainly because of his good mentality.
There is no such visual impact of having to rush to the Valencia goal after possession of the ball, but this makes him seem to be able to handle the game well in this heavyweight confrontation.
Compared with the last one, the mentality was ups and downs and there was a sharp contrast.
Playing one more man made Yaltim feel relieved. Valencia did not change to fill the vacancy on the back line, but Yaltim did not intend to attack again. As long as he defended the line and did not lose the ball, the team would Able to win tickets to the finals, there is no need to make waves at this time.
Tang Hong also didn't force it, so as not to put pressure on the defense after losing the ball.
To play one more person, Barbosa's position will help Tang Hong control the ball with some prerequisites, and it will also allow Tang Hong to have a contact point to better get rid of the opponent's chase and interception.
Valencia's offense in the last 10 minutes of the game took the plunge, because the pass and cut could not penetrate into Braga's penalty area.
With little effect, as long as Braga is in control of the ball, Tang Hong can delay time with the assistance of Barbosa from midfield.
In the 87th minute of the game, when Tang Hong was protecting the ball from the right front, Alba rushed to press him. Although Tang Hong did not have the advantage of confrontation and strength in front of many teammates, he was still able to face Alba. Occupy a clear advantage.
Alba failed to seize Tang Hong's position, let alone cut off his connection with football.
Finally, angrily, he kicked Tang Hong on the calf.
Tang Hong was swept to the ground by the opponent, ignoring the pain in his calf. He stood up and looked down at Alba and scolded: "If you want to fight, I will accompany you after the game. Doing this on the court will only make you dirty. Bastard!"
Alba retreated and left, not entangled with Tang Hong.
As soon as he turned around, Barbosa was blocked by Barbosa again, and Barbosa screamed at Alba. Of course, Barbosa would have more swear words that the other party could understand.
Alba pushed Barbosa away, the referee came to calm everyone down, and then showed Alba a yellow card.
Valencia's morale has fallen to the bottom, and Braga's delay in possession of the ball only pushed them on the edge of the cliff.
With 5 minutes of stoppage time, Valencia has only one effective attack in this short period of time, and has not yet been able to form an attack, while Braga's time spent on possession of the ball will make the game smooth Towards the end.
When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, the Braga crowds will raise their fists and roar to celebrate their entry into the Europa League final this season!
