Coaching legend

Because it's too far away, all the players returning to defense don't know whether Cudicini committed a foul. They just protested and the referee gave Cudicini a red card.

In fact, according to the rules, this red card can be given.

Only captain Sagnol went up to argue with the referee. It was said that Cudicini did not touch Aimar just now. Cudicini finally stopped and never touched Aimar at all. But the referee shook his head, refused to listen to Sagnol and Cudicini's excuses, and pointed firmly at the penalty spot.

Then he turned to Cudicini and told him to get off the field.

Sagnol was very angry when he saw the referee's decision. Turning around, he saw Aimar who had just stood up and pushed him. Then he pointed at Aimar's nose angrily and cursed: "You liar, can you tell me that it was Carlo who tripped you just now?"

But at this time Aimar had not heard Sagnol's words.

Because Aimar, who had just stood up, was pushed by Sagnol and fell down again. And he was rolling all over the floor.

This performance surprised Sagnol. I'm going to give you a fucking push. Is this necessary?

In fact, this is really an injustice to Aimar. The replay on the big screen clearly showed Cudicini's save. At that time, after Aimar passed the ball, he did not touch Cudicini at all.

But the moment Cudicini pounced on the ball, he jumped into the air and fell to the ground. This was a complete flop, just to cheat a penalty kick. It's a pity that Aimar's movements were so realistic that the referee behind him couldn't tell the difference at all.

Only during playback can you see it clearly.

This is undoubtedly a flop.

Aimar had been lying down watching the referee's decision. He slowly stood up after seeing the referee give a penalty kick and a red card. Sagnol stepped forward and pushed, but the force was not very strong. But because Aimar had just stood up and had not yet stabilized, Sagnol pushed, and Aimar failed to stabilize his center of gravity and fell.

This time I really fell.

But Aimar added a little spice the moment he fell. All of a sudden he was rolling around on the ground.

This left Sagnol stunned.

The linesman waved his flag and told the referee that there was another incident. The referee also saw Aimar falling to the ground again, so he stepped forward to take a look, and then listened to the linesman's narrative. He turned around and came to Sagnol. He didn't know what he was saying, and then he raised the red card high.

This time the second red card came out.

All the fans in the audience booed when they saw the referee's decision. The passing of Jack Walker has made Blackburn fans very sad. Seeing this kind of penalty from the referee, they were even more sad and angry. You could hear nothing but boos throughout Ewood Park.

George was even more angry.

He came to the fourth official and stopped him. George, who turned out to be arrogant when he was angry, spat wildly in front of the fourth referee. "You are keeping the replay just for fun, aren't you? Look if Cudicini committed a foul. It was obviously Aimar who fell down by himself. But you gave my goalkeeper a red card and you still have to fine him. Get off my captain. How the hell did he get to be the referee?"

In fact, Aimar's fall penalty was really not the referee's mistake. But George had no time to care about that at this time. George's saliva even sprayed on the face of the fourth official.

The fourth referee also understood that George did have reasons to be angry.

It was obviously a game where we had the initiative, but because of a penalty kick and a red card, it was very likely that there would be another outcome. And as soon as it came out, there were two red cards, and it was impossible for anyone to be calm. George had reason to be angry.

But the fourth referee couldn't ignore George's statement.

So he said with a straight face: "Coach Levi, please pay attention to your words..." This is the official statement of the so-called referee.

George was completely tired of hearing this.

"Attention, we have been given two red cards. You told me to pay attention, how the hell should I pay attention. You tell me how I should pay attention!" George almost lost his mind. Damn it, it turns out that the situation is great. As long as we continue to win slowly, we will be able to win the Champions League semi-finals. Now because of a dive that cost Blackburn two red cards, how can George be calm?

"Look at the replay above for yourself. Did my goalkeeper commit a foul? A penalty kick, and a fucking red card. Tell me, was that a penalty kick just now, and was that a red card just now!"

The fourth referee was very kind. He waited until George finished speaking and then said to George: "Coach Levi, I believe you should know the FIFA rules better than anyone else. The referee's penalty is over. If you continue to pester, I will let the referee The referee kicked you out of here.”

"Tsk, bullshit rules."

After George finished speaking, he left the place.

The fourth referee looked at George and shook his head. It is said that England produces coaches with character, and I have heard some news about George before. I just didn’t expect George to have such a bad temper. However, the fourth referee did not think of writing what George just said into the report.

He still understood George very well.

George on the sidelines was so excited, as the players on the court could imagine. The hot-tempered Ferdinand and Pires even dragged the referee, wanting an explanation. The referee did not give it for nothing, giving Ferdinand and Pires a yellow card respectively.

Blanco was experienced and immediately separated Ferdinand and Pires.

Blanco believed that if Ferdinand and Pires continued to be relentless, the referee would definitely give them a red card.

Cudicini was very frustrated. He felt very wronged because he had never touched Aimar. He was awarded a penalty and got a red card. And Sagnol was very regretful. Cudicini's red card had already reduced the team by one player.

Just when he was anxious, he also got a red card. Now it's nine against eleven, how can this game be played.

After George calmed down, he could only replace a goalkeeper and a defender.

George replaced Duff with Tariq and Miku with Hargreaves. Hargreaves went to the right back position.

Tariq, the goalkeeper, has only played five times this season and basically has not played in the game. But now there is no way, George can only choose this way. In this way, Blackburn has four defenders, two defensive midfielders Deco and Makelele, and Klose is left in front. Pires is the lubricant connecting the backcourt and the frontcourt.

George's current solution is also helpless.

Valencia will definitely attack Blackburn in the remaining time. But George can't let the team have no counterattack power at all. Klose and Pires are left in the hope of counterattack.

Almost six minutes have passed since Cudicini was given a red card.

Tariq watched Mendieta place the ball, and his heart was pounding. He never thought that he could play in this kind of game, so his legs kept shaking. Mendieta looked at Tariq, without any run-up, just a slight push, Tariq was unable to judge the direction.

"One to zero, in the 23rd minute of the first half, Valencia tied the total score with a penalty kick. However, Blackburn still leads Valencia with the advantage of away goals."

"Blackburn only has nine players on the field, how will they face the remaining 70 minutes."

But it didn't take 70 minutes. Before the end of the first half, Valencia scored another goal.

In the 33rd minute of the first half, Mendieta made a long shot, which was not very dangerous. But the speed was fast, and Tariq couldn't catch the ball. At the moment of receiving the ball, Tariq dropped it. Juan Sanchez, who was cruising in the penalty area, was very alert and stepped forward to make up the shot, scoring Valencia's second goal of the game.

"Two to zero, Valencia is already leading Blackburn 3 to 2 in the total score."

"Now Blackburn is difficult to play. Two people have been sent off the field, and the total score is behind..."

It is indeed difficult to play. Nine people play against eleven people, and the opponent is Valencia, a strong European team. Cooper is a very practical person. When he saw that the total score was 3-2 ahead, he immediately retreated regardless of the 11-on-9 situation.

Cooper was at ease playing his own defensive counterattack.

George had already sat back in his seat at this time. George didn't know why a good game would turn out like this. Could it be that Blackburn really had a bad season this season?

George didn't know who to blame?

Cudicini, he did nothing wrong, how could he blame him?

Sagnol, he just stood up for the players. As a captain, although the effect was not good, George couldn't blame him too much.

The referee, he is not a machine. He can accurately see the opponent's diving, so it's not a big deal to blame him.

Then only Aimar is left.

Aimar's diving is the culprit for this situation. But what reason does George have to blame him. He is not his own player, and it is natural for him to fight for the interests of his club.

Then blame the damn God!

Damn it, George is desperate. Not long after the start of the second half, the last substitution was made. Drogba replaced Makelele, wanting to make a last-ditch effort.

Unfortunately, they failed to score. Instead, in the counterattack, Kalu received a pass from Kily Gonzalez and headed in the third goal of the game.

Blackburn could only accept a 0-3 ending at home.

This season's Champions League, this is such a good opportunity. Blackburn can definitely enter the Champions League semi-finals, but now...

However, George did not have the space to complain. Because George still had to comfort his players. Before this game, everyone was full of confidence. Now that the result is like this, many players are very frustrated.

This kind of frustration cannot be described in words.

George has to comfort them and cheer them up. The loss of this game is not the responsibility of the players or George. It is an unprovoked disaster.
