Clark and his colleagues on the coaching staff were all standing on the sidelines. Not far from him were the Leeds City substitutes. They were also standing on the sidelines, looking anxiously towards the pitch.

Although hope is already very slim, they still choose to stand together with the whole team and fight side by side, even off the court.

 The replaced captain Lorenzo stood out from all the players and shouted loudly from time to time.

This usually gentle-tempered captain now looked anxious.

Despite everyone’s efforts, the game time still passed ruthlessly, and judging from the scene, Tramed still had the upper hand.

"I hate to say this, but I have to say that Leeds City may have no chance of making a comeback in the away game..." Matthew Cox put away his inner sympathy for Leeds City and said calmly. "General.

It is necessary to recognize the reality. Leeds City's performance this season has been excellent... no, it is great! This is definitely an extremely great season in the history of their club. Not winning the championship does not undermine their greatness...

I think many years from now, when people mention the Premier League in the 2025-2026 season, they will think of them. This time the glory does not only belong to Stan Park Rangers..."

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!!" The Leeds City fans in front of the TV kept shouting and cursing, trying to use their curses to stop Cox from continuing to speak. It seemed that as long as they could interrupt Cox's words, they would

It can change the current situation on the field.

But not everyone is so irrational.

John Falkingham looked silently at Levin, who was shouting beside him, and said nothing.

 It’s just self-deception.

 Just deceiving yourself and others.

Football is so cruel...

Football is always so cruel...

 John sat down.

 David Miller noticed John sitting down and said dissatisfied: "What are you doing, John? You give up?"

He gestured to the surroundings with his eyes. All the Leeds City fans watching the game in the "White Rose" bar, except for John Falkingham who had just sat down, were all standing when Tramed scored the second goal.

When the ball was played, they kicked over their chairs and stood with their necks raised to watch the game.

"I..." John wanted to defend himself, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them because he couldn't defend himself. Deep down in his heart, he really felt that Leeds City was over. He had been dreaming for a season, but he couldn't.

It's time to wake up.

 “Get up! John, get up! The game is not over yet!” David Miller gritted his teeth and yelled.

His roar attracted the attention of some fans around him. They all turned their eyes over and saw John sitting.

In full view of everyone, John could no longer sit still. He stood up with his hands on the table, not forgetting to make amends: "I'm not...David, I didn't give up, I just felt a little dizzy after standing for a long time..."

 David Miller didn’t care about the lame excuse he came up with and turned his attention to the television again.

At this moment, Matthew Cox, who had been reading a lyric poem just now, suddenly exclaimed: "Be careful!"

  ※※※

 Riccardo Barea is carrying the ball on the left wing, and Camara is following him.

  Balea felt Kamara's collision with his body, and he gritted his teeth in his heart: I am not the same person I was at the beginning of the season, French boy!

Thinking of this, he poked the football out with the toe of his right foot and then immediately speeded up and cut across the ball, directly blocking Kamara.

Kamara made an evasive action in order to avoid a foul.

But this time, Barea caught it and dodged into the inside line!

 He caught up with the football and rushed towards the penalty area!

Jose Vieira, the midfielder who came on the bench, strode up to defend, but his movements were a bit slow in front of Balea... Even if he was closer to the football, it was Balia who touched the ball first in the end.

Ya!

Facing the big but slow-moving Vieira, Barea took the first step and used the outside instep of his right foot to push the football aside. Vieira, who was rushing towards him, could not stop himself and crashed directly into Barea.

 The latter simply fell down in the penalty area!

There were loud boos and whistles.

"Balia was pushed down! The referee pointed to the penalty spot... This is a penalty!! Oh my god! This is a penalty! In the 92nd minute of the game, Tramed won

A penalty!! This is a fatal penalty! This is a penalty that can almost kill the suspense of the league title!! At such an important moment, Leeds City was sentenced to death!"

 During Matthew Cox’s exclamation, some Leeds City players held their heads, some spread their hands with doubtful expressions, and some rushed directly to the referee.

Vieira, who committed the foul, waved to the referee repeatedly with a sad face, indicating that it was not a foul.

Pete Williams, wearing the captain's armband, ran to the referee with his hands behind his back, trying to keep his tone calm: "Sir... no! Sir, this is not a penalty! Balea dived!"

Farek Quinn and Kamala rushed in front of Barea, clamped him one after another, and shouted angrily: "Shameless, bastard boy! You are so shameless! Despicable!"

 “This is not self-protection, you are diving!”

 Amidst their curses, Baria, who got up from the ground, shrank his head and raised his hands, looking a little nervous and scared...

 Fortunately, Tramed's players rushed over quickly to separate Quinn and Kamara.

 Connor Kirk protected Barea behind him and snorted to Quinn and Kamala: "Back off, don't apply for a yellow card for yourself!"

Tony Clark on the sidelines also became angry after the initial shock. He roared at the fourth official: "This shouldn't be a penalty!"

Not to mention the Leeds City fans in front of the TV, they have scolded Barea and Tramed for eighteen generations.

It’s no wonder that everyone in Leeds City was so excited, it was actually because Barea’s fall this time was not so... convincing.

Vieira did open his arms when he hit Barea, but according to Leeds City's understanding, it is a normal protective action of a player opening his arms when defending, which is very common in football matches.

common.

 But Baria reacted too radically to this action, covering his neck and falling to the ground.

 Vieira's movements could have been anywhere outside the penalty area, and Barea might have continued to fight Vieira indifferently.

 But in the penalty area, Barea fell very cleanly.

 So they thought Barea was faking.

But supporters of Tramed and Stan Park Rangers also have something to say:

When Vieira was defending in the penalty area, you crossed your arms and made a push-out motion. If you didn't call you a foul, why would you call it a foul? Every experienced defensive player knows to pay special attention to hand movements in the penalty area.

, many people simply folded their arms to defend.

You are better than Ella. You open your arms openly and push people. Our center of gravity is unstable while running at high speed. Is there anything wrong with being pushed by you?

Besides, it’s not like your Hu Lai has never done this kind of thing before. He fell into the penalty area after some physical contact... Why don’t you say that Hu Lai was diving now?!

 But let’s not talk about whether Barea dived or not. The main reason is that the timing of this penalty kick was too sensitive, which is why it caused such a big reaction from everyone in Leeds City.

 This penalty kick is basically a death sentence for Leeds City!

But some people don't see it that way. They feel that even without this penalty kick, Leeds City has no hope of defeating Tramed in the away game. Everyone can see that they have no energy left to counterattack. If they can hold on to this draw, it is considered a success.

Best results.

On the contrary, the referee's penalty just gave Leeds City the best excuse to lose the league championship. They could claim that they were persecuted by the wealthy at the Red Roof Stadium, so they lost the league championship. Anyway, losing the game and losing the championship are not the same.

Their responsibility lies in some off-site factors.

Conspiracy theories are popular in the world today. Not to mention what they preach, maybe many people actually believe it...

The stoppage time memes at the Red Roof Stadium may be repeated again.

  ※※※

 The Park Rangers players were already dancing and celebrating in the dressing room.

They don’t care about the reputation of their league rival Tramed. They only know that they are getting closer and closer to returning to the top of the league.

 “God is on our side!” assistant coach Stephen Brown said happily to Brooks.

 Brooks did not agree, but he also did not remind him not to be happy too early.

Because he couldn't think of how Leeds City could make a comeback. Even if Tramed didn't kick the penalty kick, the game would be over. The score was 2:2. Leeds City tied with Tramed in an away game and fell behind Stan Park in points.

The Rangers gained one point and moved back into second place.

The reason why he is not as proud as the assistant coach is entirely because as a head coach, he still has to maintain his image in front of so many players...

He looked at the live broadcast on the TV. No matter how much the Leeds City players protested and argued, they could not change the referee's decision. Even Falek Quinn and Ismael Kamara were criticized for their excessive words.

Got a yellow card.

Leeds City players all exited the penalty area unwillingly, and some even couldn't help but shed tears... Apparently even the Leeds City players themselves thought they were destined to lose!

Tramed captain Connor Kirk stood in the penalty area holding the football, preparing to take the penalty.

But he suddenly turned back and waved to the crowd, calling for someone.

  ※※※

 “Ricardo!” The person Connor Kirk called back was Portuguese teenager Ricardo Barea.

 He hooked the young man's player and motioned for him to come over.

Balia more or less guessed what the captain was going to do, but he did not refuse, but tried hard to suppress the excitement in his heart and ran up.
