Beside him, the Zenit Number 8 player rushed out and delivered a...
Bang!
The soccer ball flew up.
At the same time, the Zenit Number 8 also flew up.
Even... Ah Meng, who was more than a meter behind the Number 8, also flew up!
Lam’s ferocious slide tackle, which spanned an extraordinary distance, not only directly kicked the ball in the moment the Number 8 was about to shoot but also took down two of their players.
Ah Meng behind was better off, only dragged down.
But the Zenit Number 8 had solid contact with Lam.
He even flew high.
It’s easy to imagine how angry Lam was.
Coincidentally, Number 8 was the player who retired Latu Yidi due to injury.
"Are you trying to kill someone?"
Zenit’s players rushed over as if they wanted to hit Lam.
But Canyes, Bernulin, and others also came running over immediately.
"Ah!"
The Zenit Number 8 clutched his right foot, rolling on the ground in extreme pain, just like Latu Yidi five minutes into the game, in intense agony.
Ah Meng’s eyes were also red, confronting Lam as if he wanted to kill.
But Lam didn’t back down: "I just did what you guys always do! You don’t need to react so violently! You are the real thugs, and I’m merely seeking justice for my teammates!"
Ah Meng was taken aback, feeling a bit lost.
But Zenit’s players had already rushed over and pushed Lam directly.
Morici slipped over from the side and delivered a forceful side tackle to the player shoving Lam.
He couldn’t easily use his feet or fists, as it might earn a red card.
Such collisions are much less severe and easier to evade punishment; even if caught, the consequences aren’t too serious.
For a moment, another large-scale brawl erupted among the players.
The scene was once again very intense.
Lu also ran back from the front field.
But the Main Referee reached the scene before him.
Whistle!
Whistle!
Whistle!
The Main Referee blew his whistle continuously, finally managing to barely control the situation.
He gave Lam a red card!
This was a foul with dangerous actions, causing detrimental consequences!
Lam didn’t complain; he was prepared for this!
If not for worry about the team’s defense, he would have done this ten or twenty minutes earlier!
He couldn’t tolerate the Main Referee’s judgment!
Then, the Main Referee showed yellow cards to Morici, Bernulin, and two other Zenit players. So far, he has issued a total of ten yellow cards and one red card this match!
This is definitive proof that the scene was out of control.
This would be a textbook example of what not to do in the referee industry.
Lam was booed by Zenit fans when he entered the player tunnel.
Zenit fans threw down many things: coins, coke, water cups, etc.
Lam was hit on the shoulder with a bottle of mineral water!
Sotu pulled the fourth official, showing him what Zenit fans were like; they injured San Remo’s players!
The fourth official stated he would record everything, including Sotu’s rudeness.
Sotu said then you must record it fully, because after the game, our San Remo will also file a lawsuit against the referee team for this match; our dissatisfaction with the judgments is enormous!
The entire Italian Football is dissatisfied!
You’ve stirred up immense trouble guys!
The fourth official was speechless, conveying these words to the Main Referee.
The Main Referee came over assertively, issuing another yellow card to Sotu.
Alright, that’s eleven yellow cards now!
The Main Referee pointed to the stands, indicating Sotu to leave the command area.
Sotu, while furiously muttering censored profanities, was dragged to the fan stands by Old Tom.
Everyone knew from that moment, this game wouldn’t end quietly.
Even after the match, the debates and conflicts would intensify.
This was a terrible game, for professionals.
But... for Real Madrid, Barça, Arsenal, La Liga, Premier League fans here for the spectacle, this... this was just a super intense, rare match of the year!
Extremely thrilling!
Indeed, these are the brothers who know how to enjoy without stress; worthy of praise.
With Sotu’s departure, the situation gradually cooled down.
But the expressions from both sides indicated that even if just a few minutes were left in the match, it wouldn’t be calm.
On Zenit’s side, the Number 8 indeed got injured and was carried away on a stretcher, and Zenit put on a substitute.
Meanwhile, Zenit gained a well-placed free kick in the frontcourt.
Ah Meng took charge of this free kick.
Bang!
Perhaps due to poor physical condition or foul mood, Ah Meng’s free kick was mediocre, hitting straight into the wall.
Versachi fell on the spot, clutching his head.
He was impacted hard.
He even felt that Ah Meng did it deliberately.
Damn!
Bang!
Morici didn’t have time to be concerned for Versachi because he saw an opportunity.
He believed Versachi would support him doing so.
Scoring against opponents is the best punishment in football.
The rocket pass appeared!
In the front, Belletti, who was keeping low, sprinted quickly, proving even a veteran can dash.
But the next moment, he was brought down by Zenit’s right-back, Number 17.
This was a tactical foul.
The Main Referee finally got into character, issuing a yellow card to Number 17.
Alright, twelve yellow cards now.
