As Gonzano Martinez pushed the goal, the commentators in the commentary box sighed:
"The goal was a little sudden, but it's natural."
"Salmiandu was completely beaten by the Hurricanes in the away game. Full-back Pablo Aguilar might have wanted to injure Espinoza and give the Hurricanes a chance, but the result was The successive retaliations from Avila and Alan Willard caused the Hurricanes to have high morale and not be afraid of fighting at all."
"The current Hurricanes Athletic Team has eliminated three A-League teams in a row and advanced to the semi-finals of the Argentine Cup."
"The four teams that have reached the semi-finals of the Argentine Cup, except for Atletico Hurricanes, the other three teams are from the A-League."
"Being able to eliminate three A-League teams in a row and advance to the semi-finals with the other three A-League teams proves that the overall strength of the Hurricanes Athletic Team is indeed much higher than that of the B-League teams."
"It certainly has everything to do with the meteoric rise of Alan Willard."
"In this game too, Velarde not only suppressed Salmiandu's momentum with a fierce tackle, but also played a role in defense many times to block Salmiandu's counterattack."
"This goal was also due to Velarde's aggressive pressing. As a result, Salmiandu's midfielder Michael Scattoraro, who was holding the ball, did not dare to take the ball. He turned around in a hurry and made a mistake in passing the ball back, which was intercepted by Gonzano Martinez. , directly launched a counterattack in the frontcourt, entered the penalty area after a one-two and scored a goal.”
"Although the goal was scored by Gonzano Martinez and the assist was by Avila, Velard also contributed a lot to this goal."
“If he hadn’t forced Michael Scattoraro to rush back and make a mistake, there wouldn’t have been Gonzano Martinez’s counter-attack goal.”
After hearing that the professional commentators praised Willard so much, in the conference room of a brokerage company in the city center, Douglas Johnson, the assistant agent who recommended Alan Willard to his boss Edward Bruce, excitedly claimed the credit:
"Boss, look, am I right? Velarde's performance is completely worthy of you personally signing him. He will definitely be able to play in the A-League in the future, and even land in Europe and gain a foothold in Europe. Even if he enters the national The possibility of becoming a national team player and playing with Messi is not small, and we will definitely make a lot of money."
As one of the big-name agents in Argentine football, Edward Bruce, who has managed many Argentine players to land in Europe, looked at Alan Velarde in the live broadcast camera, and his eyes shone brightly: "Yes, you can contact him tomorrow. , make an appointment for us to talk together and try to sign him and become our cash cow."
Douglas Johnson nodded excitedly.
He had just graduated from college and entered this company as an intern. Others were eyeing players from the first-division team or youth training players. He felt that there was not much opportunity, so he found a new way to focus on low-level teams in the Albanian League and the Argentine Cup. .
As a result, he discovered Alan Willard early and recommended him to his boss. Although Willard later became famous and others in the company also discovered it, according to the rules of whoever finds out first signs, Willard now belongs to Douglas.
But he is only a trainee agent. He has not yet passed the exam for his agent certificate. He does not have the right to sign players alone, so he can only sign players. But the boss has many things to do, and there are even other companies. When the time comes, he will definitely have to deal with Alan Willard for specific matters, and in disguise he will be Willard's exclusive agent.
As long as Villard develops and becomes a star in the A-League and even in the five major European leagues, he will naturally rise.
Now that he heard that the boss finally recognized Alan Willard, who plays in the second league, and is ready to enter the actual contact stage and prepare to sign a contract, Douglas Johnson is of course very excited.
If he signs a star of hope like Willard as his first deal in the industry, he will have a bright future in the brokerage industry in the future.
…
Of course, Willard didn't know that he was being targeted by a brokerage company again.
Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't care. No fewer than ten agents or companies had contacted him in the past two months, but he never agreed.
Either the opponent is not strong enough, or the commission is too much, and Velarde is not in a hurry anyway. As his strength improves and the Hurricanes win the championship, are promoted to the First Division, or win the Argentine Cup, there will always be bigger-name agents or agencies that will come to him with better terms.
He's not in a hurry.
After the Hurricanes' goal celebration, the game continued.
After taking the lead, the Hurricane Athletics team slightly shrunk their formation. After all, they had been attacking for almost half an hour and it was time to take a rest.
No one or any team can attack like crazy for 90 minutes non-stop. They have to take a breather and slow down.
Salmiandu began to use the period when the Hurricanes were resting to intensify their counterattack in an attempt to equalize the score.
But the Hurricanes' defense, led by Velarde, was rock solid. Coupled with the back defense of the two full midfielders and central midfielder Lucas, it is even more airtight.
Until the end of the first half, Salmiandu didn't get any decent opportunities, and he didn't even make a few shots that were ridiculously deflected and had no threat.
Seeing that the first half was about to end, in the 44th minute, the Hurricanes counterattacked quickly through a steal from Alan Willard in the backcourt, and finally the winger Toranso made a pass from the right. Center forward Avila grabbed the first header with his back to the goal. Espinoza stepped in from the back row, volleyed directly and kicked the ball into the goal.
"Oh, the ball went in!!!"
“Before the end of the first half, Athletic Hurricanes scored again.”
"The goal was Espinoza. He was tackled by Pablo Aguilar and suffered some skin injuries. Not only did he not come off the field, he continued to play and now he has scored. ball."
“I have to say that Espinosa’s spirit is commendable and his persistence has paid off.”
"And it was Alan Willard who initiated this attack. He made a precise grab in the backcourt, intercepted Salmiandu's pass, and then passed the ball to initiate the attack."
"Although Velarde is called a defensive midfielder, he actually makes a lot of offensive contributions. In many cases he has become the initiator of the Hurricanes' backcourt offense, and his offensive talent is not low."
"Hurricane Athletic leads Salmiandu 2-0, so we can go into the halftime break with a relaxed attitude."
Indeed, Espinoza's goal not only gave him a huge spiritual release, but also made the entire team of players even happier.
With a two-goal lead, the game is basically settled. Although there are many examples in football of a two-goal lead being reversed, they are in the minority after all.
In most cases, a two-goal lead is enough to seal the victory.
Therefore, everyone was very happy and came forward to celebrate with Espinoza who scored.
As for his opponent Sarmiandu, he naturally felt quite frustrated.
No one would be in a good mood if Hurricanes scored another goal before the end of the first half.
It can only be seen whether Salmiandu's head coach can make effective adjustments during the halftime break and perform a miracle in the second half.
