At the 57th minute of the match, Nottingham Forest was at a draw with Sporting CP with 2:2.
No one could have expected to see that score when Forest team had been leading by two goals.
What did it mean? Sporting CP had gotten two precious away goals! This result meant that they practically had gotten half of their foot in the quarterfinals.
Were they giving up?
There was no reason to. The first round still had 30 minutes left, and the second had 90. It was much too early to give up.
Tang En turned and looked at the substitutes' bench. The players were all warming up outside. He thought for a moment and asked Kerslake to call Mikel Arteta back.
"This is bad, Mikel." Tang En said to Arteta. "Have you ever seen such a match on home grounds? It seems like we're the ones on an away match. For this match, I want you to play right midfielder. Even though it's on the wings, I still want you to play like before and set up the attacks."
