Inside the stadium, the game continues.
Alan Velarde came on and partnered Federico Bismara in a double back for the defense. Velarde used his freshly minted physicality to take care of the uptempo tackles and sweeps, while Bismara dragged back to assist in the defense and checking.
Down by three goals, CA Tampolli hadn't given up hope and were still trying to struggle a bit, pounding away at the Hurricanes' defense.
Velarde, who had just come on, became Tampolli's main attack, as the opposition tried to take advantage of the fact that he had just come on, was not yet in the game, and had not yet gained a foothold, to form a breakthrough from him.
However, Velarde has reached 78 awareness, 75 physique and 71 defensive ability, which is surely a huge advantage at this level of the A-League, especially when playing a promoted team like Tampolli.
53's skill you let him organize the offense may be far worse, but you let him concentrate on defense, that is absolutely no problem. Coupled with the mental age of 30-something, calm, not impatient, defense that is quite stable, easily do not give the opponent a chance.
In the 72nd minute, Velarde was able to deflect a great pass that was ready to be tucked into the box by getting stuck in early, intercepting the ball midway straight away and handing it to his teammates to launch a counterattack down the line.
Although the comeback didn't work, Villard was recognized by some knowledgeable fans and coaches for this jammed interception.
In the 75th minute, Tampolli made a comeback when front man Irona failed to get the ball out in time as he advanced with the ball and lost his center of gravity when Velarde closed in and hit him with his strong body. Velarde then immediately reached out and poked the ball away to a teammate, defusing this Irona dribble.
Originally three goals behind, but also by Velarde bumped to cause the loss of the ball, Irona infuriated, turned around and reached out to push Velarde chest, mouth also raging, "What did you just do? What did you just do?
As a defensive player in his 30s mentally, Velarde has long since figured out his on-court persona and knows that he must never back down on the court. Once you flinch, you're not intimidating as a defensive player, and people are bullied.
Only a tough guy image and a tough style of play can intimidate opposing offensive players and put psychological pressure on them to play out of position in favor of the defense.
Also, now that he and Kristina were dependent on each other, and he couldn't always follow his sister around, by being openly ferocious on the court, he could also be a deterrent to some miscreants to think about the consequences of going near Kristina.
Therefore, when he saw Irona reach out and push his hand towards his chest, Velarde didn't fall to the ground and make the opponent commit a malicious pushing foul, letting the referee do justice and issue a card to the other party, instead, he didn't hesitate to open Irona's hand and met him with a hand, using his height of 186cm to stare down at Irona, and scolded fiercely: "It's you who are the ones who are bumped into, you little piece of trash, if you can't bear to be bumped into, then go home and drink your milk! Go home and drink your milk! Fuck you!"
Velarde's 186cm height and 84g weight is quite oppressive compared to front man Ilona, who is only 174cm tall and weighs only 68kg.
He originally wanted to bully Velarde's youth and intimidate Velarde a bit, but in the end, how did he expect Velarde to go straight to the top, and his eyes showed the ferocity of being ready to fight at any time, so Irona's heart panicked a bit.
But he was also riding a tiger and couldn't back down, so he reached out and pushed Velarde again, his mouth screaming, "Who the fuck are you cursing?"
Which expected Velarde didn't even have any more nonsense, directly grabbed Irona's outstretched hand, turned, crouched down, yanked hard, and directly swung Irona up into a vicious over-the-shoulder slam, and slammed him to the ground hard.
Ilona screamed in terror as soon as Velarde grabbed his hand and swung him into the air, but it was no use, Velarde remained firm and slammed him out, hitting the ground so hard that he almost passed right out.
But even if he didn't faint now, Irona's internal organs turned over as if he had experienced a great earthquake; his head was also dizzy as if he had a concussion, and his eyes couldn't gather focus.
It's slow to say, but in reality, from the time Ilona first reaches out and pushes Velarde to the time Velarde slams him to the ground in an over-the-shoulder slam, it's only a matter of three or four seconds, and neither teammates nor the referee were able to stop Velarde.
Velarde's over-the-shoulder slam was so vicious that it directly ignited the anger of the Tampolli players, and at least four of them rushed towards Velarde in an attempt to beat him up and avenge Ilona's death.
The Hurricanes, who have the advantage of the home field, were naturally not willing to show weakness, some of them pulled Velarde away for protection, while the others went up to the Tampolli players, pushing and shoving and cursing were naturally unavoidable in the course of the clash.
In the stands, nearly 40,000 Hurricanes home fans would have been incensed to see Ilona shove Velarde, screaming for the referee to card Ilona.
As a result, the next moment they saw Velarde put Irona straight to the ground with an over-the-shoulder slam, many of them froze with their mouths wide open for a moment, and then instantly got an adrenaline rush and stood up in excitement and shouted:
"Yes!"
"Good fall!"
"Fuck, Velarde is so fierce, I love it!"
"Beautiful! That over-the-shoulder drop is just deep!"
"Good job Alan Villard, drop Irona for me!"
Kristina, Heidi Alisa, and Reece Bertha also looked dumbfounded, and then Kristina and Reece Bertha showed worried expressions, deeply afraid that Villard would be retaliated and injured by the opposing players.
But Heidi Elisa, like any other normal male fan, suddenly leapt to her feet and screamed at the top of her lungs, "Way to go, Velarde! Beat him to death! Beat him to death!"
Kristina and Bertha looked at Heidi Alisa, who had suddenly become quite excited, and realized for the first time that the roommate had such a violent side.
In the commentary booth, the TV commentators were also excited:
"Fight!"
"The first round of the league is played!"
"Velarde broke Irona's ball, Irona may not be convinced, turned around and pushed Velarde twice, only to have Velarde pull his hand and give a direct over-the-shoulder slam to the ground, unable to get up."
"Velarde is also a tough guy, zooming right in."
"That over-the-shoulder drop is going to be enough for Ilona."
"Both players rushed to the incident and pushed and fought with each other."
In fact, the commentators were exaggerating a bit.
Although Velarde is the culprit of the fall of Irona, but it is also his man ruthless a fall, coupled with the man's size, very oppressive, Tampolli those raging players really did not have a few a forward to Velarde in front of the referee, Hurricanes players, seems to stop, just across the crowd to Velarde cursed two sentences.
The referee's disposition was decisive, recruiting the touch judges, the fourth official and even security into the field at the first opportunity, in time to stop this potential player clash.
South American stadium fights are commonplace, and the referees are used to dealing with them quickly.
There's no doubt that Villard received a straight red card, was sent off, and will not only be suspended outright for the next game, but may be subject to an additional suspension.
For his part, Ilona never got up and was carried off on a stretcher as Tampoli made a substitution. Of course, there is no shortage of possibilities that Ilona deliberately acted as if the injury was a little more serious, aggravating the possibility that the FA would impose an additional penalty on Villard.
But Villard had known the consequences and what would happen to him for a long time and was not impulsive. As a result, he left the field without a hint of remorse for having received a red card and even applauded the fans in the stands as he left the field.
The Hurricanes fans also quite liked the dominant style, and rather than chastise Velarde for going off with a red card right after he came on the field and leaving his team playing with one less man, they let out a thunderous applause, applauding Velarde in response, and a number of them shouted at him.
Heidi Alisa even looked at the departing Velarde with both eyes and said to Kristina, "Nana, would you introduce me to your brother? I like him so much, he's so dominant, I want him to be my boyfriend."
Kristina opened her mouth, somewhat speechless.
She was the one who wanted to introduce Alisa to her brother, but she didn't realize that she hadn't even made a move yet, and Alisa herself had fallen.
It's good that your sister-in-law is your roommate, and you don't have to worry that we won't get along in the future.
Neither noticed that Reece Bertha, who was sitting on the other side of Kristina and looking like a loli, was also staring at Alan Villard, who was walking toward the ring, with a twinkle in his eye.
Inside the stadium, Velarde, who was red-carded straight to the sidelines after only a few minutes of play, was not chastised by Mario Binko as he walked to the sidelines, but instead showed his support for Velarde by giving him a hug and a pat on the shoulder.
Assistant coach Arin and the substitutes have also been vocal in their support of Villard.
Players who are red-carded are not allowed to remain on the field, so Villard went straight back to the locker room and watched the rest of the game on live TV in the locker room.
Although Hurricane Athletic was under pressure to play with ten men for the rest of the game, and CA Tampolli pressed almost all the way to a frenzied attack, Mario Binko made all of Tampolli's attacks go for naught by substituting a striker for a defender, coupled with a move to have the team drop back at full strength to defend.
Despite a bit of extra time due to a clash of events between Velarde and Ilona, Tampolli also failed to score even a single goal.
After five minutes of extra time, the referee finally blew the whistle for the end of the match, and Hurricane Athletic opened the 2014 A-League B Playoffs First Round with a 3-0 win over CA Tampolli at home.
Unsurprisingly for Velarde, starting experience in League Two is 10k.
So the experience he gained from this game was 5,000 for substitutions + 3*10,000 for wins + 20,000 for C performance ratings = 55,000, and the total experience went up to 160,000/200,000 at level 10.
With so little time on the field, just a few minutes, he ended up with only a C performance grade, despite having some good highlights.
