Chapter 26: Worship the King
In the 15th minute, Mesci's breakthrough after receiving the ball made the full-back Capo who was defending him helpless, so he had to reach out and pull him down.
As a result, the referee ran over without any hesitation and gave Capo a yellow card.
Fifteen minutes into the game, the main full-back got a yellow card, which made things even worse for the already precarious defense line.
There is no mercy in football. After Capo received a yellow card, Mesci started his own offensive mode.
He began to constantly attack the opponent's defense line. Due to a yellow card, Capo's aggressiveness also began to fade. As a result, the defense on this side was completely weightless.
Marcolino, the head coach of Athlatic Bilbao off the field, frowned tightly, watching his home's defense line crumbling, as if the next goal would be scored by Barcalona.
Marcolino turned his head and said, "De Morcos, get ready to warm up and replace him later..."
Before he could finish speaking, Marcolino heard the roar of panic from the fans on the sidelines.
He felt his heart tighten, so he quickly turned his head to look, just in time to see a burst of chaos in his penalty area, and vaguely saw a Barcalona player who seemed to have fallen in the penalty area.
Marcolino rushed directly to the fourth official, not caring that he didn't know what happened just now, and shouted loudly, "Dive, that's a flop, that must be a flop!"
The fourth official made a gesture to calm him down and said, "Mr. Marcolino, it is up to the referee to decide whether it is a flop or not. Please calm down and return to your position."
Marcolino shouted while looking in the direction of his goal. The referee's whistle has already sounded, and the ball has passed the baseline but is the ball really a foul?
The referee was not in a good position just now, and the penalty area was already overcrowded but the linesman didn't see clearly the feedback from his earphones.
However, due to the fierce dispute between the two sides, the referee had no choice but to make a gesture to see VAR.
The referee trotted all the way to the video assistant referee on the sidelines, picked up the earphones, and began to watch the replay just now.
Dembolo on the left took the ball after rushing past the opponent's full-back. Then, he made a low pass and passed directly between the opponent's defender and the goalkeeper.
The central defender's foot did not touch the ball, and the goalkeeper stood on the goal line, did not move, and watched the football pass in front of him but the full-back Capo, who was at the back point, was pressed behind by Mesci.
During the struggle to get the football first, Capo's foot stepped on Mesci's heel intentionally or unintentionally, causing Mesci to fall directly into the penalty area.
The referee watched the replay twice and confirmed everything and made a gesture and pointed directly to the penalty spot. The Barcalona players also waved their fists excitedly.
Not only that, the referee also ran to the front of the full-back Capo, took out two cards from his pocket, a yellow card, and then replaced it with a red card, and sent Capo back to the locker room.
Athlatic Bilbao directly argued to take this decision back. Fifteen minutes into the game, the main right back was sent off, and there was a penalty kick.
If the penalty is scored, the score will be 2:0, how can they recover from that but the referee remained unmoved, and acted to calm down the Athlatic Bilbao players to leave quickly.
Seeing the referee touching yellow card in his pocket, the Athlatic Bilbao players could only leave cursing.
Mesci showed a happy smile. This is tit for tat. Although last time the red card he got was not because of Capo but this frustration is same for the entire Athlatic Bilbao team.
Mesci stood in front of the penalty spot, put the football, took a few steps back, and looked at the opponent's goalkeeper solemnly.
Athlatic Bilbao goalkeeper Siman was doing all kinds of tricks on the goal line, hoping to distract him but how could Mesci, who has a long experience in the field, to be confused by such low-end means.
As soon as the whistle sounded, Mesci rushed to the football quickly with a flick of his left ankle, the goalkeeper Siman could only jump out in one direction but he regretted it when he was in mid-air. It turned out that Mesci kicked out a Panenka.
When Siman landed, the football also drew a beautiful arc and fell into the goal. Only Mesci could shoot such a calm penalty kick at this vengeful and exciting moment.
Aran off the court also shouted excitedly. He admired Mesci's mentality when taking penalty kicks.
Penalty kicks are a big nightmare in Aran's heart. He don't know when this nightmare will be overcome.
------------------
After kick off by Athlatic Bilbao.
Originally, their own defense line was in jeopardy, but now that there is one less defender, it is even more stretched.
Mesci was also completely liberated. In the opponent's 30-meter area, he galloped freely, pulling the opponent's defense line to pieces.
In the 30th minute, Barcalona's trident in the frontcourt once again played an exquisite cooperation.
Griesman, who was pulled to the midfielder position, passed a straight pass to Dembolo, who had gotten rid of the entanglement of the opponent's defender.
Dembolo pedaled a series of fakes, causing the opponent's central defender to sit on the ground directly.
He, who now faced the goalkeeper, was not greedy for merit, but reverse passed it to the fast-inserting Mesci.
Mesci also lived up to Dembolo's kindness, directly shooting through the opponent's goal.
After Mesci scored the goal, he jumped onto Dembolo's back all at once. Dembolo carried Mesci on his back and went directly to the phalanx of the visiting team fans, like a king on tour.
This is the home stadium of Athlatic Bilbao. There were less than a thousand Barcalona fans, but these fans were happy.
Looking at Mesci who completed his hat-trick in just 30 minutes. All the thousand Barcalona fans made gestures of worship in front of the king.
Everyone knows what this game means to Mesci, so even Dembolo, who is rebellious when facing the goalkeeper at such a good time, he passes back to Mesci.
Mesci also knows this well, and is very moved by everyone's cooperation.
