Chapter 490 Defending the League Champions!

After a day's rest in Valencia, all the players followed the coach Flores who returned to Valencia non-stop and took a flight to Deportivo Galicia. They will challenge the league's 33rd round opponent Deportivo.

Of course, under normal circumstances, the main players who participated in the second round of the Champions League semi-final should stay in Valencia to recover their physical fitness and prepare for the next UEFA Champions League final, but their schedule this time is a bit weird.

They will play two consecutive games against La Coruna at the Riazor Stadium in the coming week. The first is the 2006rd round of La Liga in the 2007-33 season, and then they will continue to play against La Coruna in this stadium on the 10th.

As the head coach of a wealthy Spanish club, Flores naturally has to take the overall situation into consideration. After advancing to the Champions League final and basically winning the league title, of course he has to focus on the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey next week. That's why he decided to bring the main force to Deportivo.

For Flores' arrangement, no media found it inappropriate.

As for whether he can play in the league with Deportivo at the Riazor Stadium, it depends on Flores' arrangement.

It is worth mentioning that as long as Valencia wins this game in the away game, they can successfully defend the La Liga title five rounds ahead of schedule, regardless of the results of Real Madrid and Barcelona.

But in this La Liga match at the Riazor Stadium, Valencia did not send any main players. It was basically a starting lineup composed of substitutes and youth team members. With Aiello who came off the bench in the second half and assisted Morientes, the savior drew 1:1 with Deportivo in the away game, raising their unbeaten record in the league to 33 games this season.

If you count the undefeated record of last season, the number of consecutive unbeaten games in the league has reached 37 games, which means that they are only one league away from the Real Sociedad record of 38 consecutive unbeaten league games in La Liga. However, this record is not valued by most Valencia players.

It is a little regrettable that in the next league, Real Madrid and Barcelona both defeated their opponents, reducing the difference between the two sides to 13 points, so Valencia can only wait until the 34th round of the league against Zaragoza if they want to win the league championship.

However, this is also in line with the needs of Valencia fans. Anyway, the league champion can't escape. Compared with lifting the league championship trophy away, they naturally hope that the team can lift the league trophy at the Mestalla Stadium.

After recuperating, the main players all played in the second round of the Copa del Rey semi-final four days later. Although it was an away game, under the leadership of Aiello, Valencia defeated the home team 3-0 away and advanced to the Copa del Rey final this season with a total score of 5-0.

Until then, the Spanish media put Valencia's hope of winning the honor of the first Triple Crown in the history of Spanish football, and put it on the headlines of the newspaper.

"The first treble for a La Liga team?"

This was the unified headline given by the Spanish mainstream media the next day.

"Marca" said this: "After Valencia defeated Deportivo in an away game, they have already advanced to the final of this season's Copa del Rey, and a week ago they drew 1:1 with Liverpool in an away game, and entered the Champions League final with a total score of 3:2. In addition, the La Liga championship is basically confirmed, which means that they can compete for the honor of the first Spanish club in the history of the treble..."

As the number one official newspaper of the Valencia club, "Valencia Sports Daily" naturally gave all the praise to the team: "With the league title at your fingertips, we defeated Deportivo in the away game and entered the Copa del Rey final this season. In addition, we drew away with Liverpool in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final last week... After six years of waiting, we have the opportunity to set foot on the top of Europe and reach the top. As one of the oldest clubs in Spain, Valencia should create the best record. And this record is right in front of us, that's right! It's the Triple Crown!"

"... I believe that no one in this world would despise too many championships. The same is true for club-level honors. Two weeks later, it will be the final day of this season's UEFA Champions League. The opponent is AC Milan, which has won six UEFA Champions League titles. But we are not afraid, so let's meet in Athens and cheer for Valencia to reach the top of Europe!"

The city of Valencia is the third largest city in Spain. It is known as the "Pearl of the Mediterranean" because of its superior geographical location. In history, it was extremely brilliant as the financial capital of the Mediterranean Empire. It also has its own unique tradition and language. Valencians are famous for their individualism, sensibility and creativity.

Therefore, the Valencia club, which is the city's business card, has the opportunity to win the first triple crown in the history of the Spanish team. As the indigenous residents of this city, it seems like a festival.

"The eighth league championship trophy!" Before the 34th round of the league against Zaragoza at home, this was the slogan that the local residents raised the most.

Followed by "Damn Real Madrid, Barcelona pay tribute to the champion!"

In the history of Spanish football, the domestic championships are basically won by Real Madrid and Barcelona. Therefore, as the third largest city in Spain and the third largest club, it is normal to have a lot of hatred for Real Madrid and Barcelona.

……

Just the day before Valencia's home game against Zaragoza, the general manager of the club, Carboni, found Aiello. He thought that the club had a major decision to tell him, but... After Carboni told him the matter, his mouth opened wide.

Hearing this, Ai Luo understood a general idea.

In fact, as early as more than a month ago, he paid attention to the recent international current affairs, and was actively establishing a friendly province with the Valencia Autonomous Region for the final inspection. If there is no problem, he can sign relevant documents.

As the number one well-known Chinese person in Valencia, Yu should also meet Ai Luolai in public and private. It is not easy to win for the Chinese in a foreign country. In addition, he is a football fan himself, so Ai Luo was not too surprised when he heard the news from the general manager.

At [-] o'clock in the morning on the day of the game, accompanied by the main officials of the Valencia Autonomous Region and the head of the embassy in Spain, they arrived at the Mestalla Stadium.

As the representatives of Chinese players in Valencia, Ai Luo and Wang Xiaolei were among the welcome ranks, while Wu Xi and Jiang Zhipeng from the youth team also came to the scene under the leadership of Ai Luo, but only Ai Luo was among the accompanying characters.

After more than an hour of visits, the entire history of Valencia was explained, and those who have always loved football also took a kick on the green turf. But to be honest, the footwork was not good, but no matter whether it was the players, officials or reporters who came to the Mestalla Stadium, they all applauded.

After visiting the Valencia club, Ai Luo was unexpectedly named to attend the lunch banquet in Valencia, which surprised everyone, including Ai Luo himself...

From the camera, the Mestalla Stadium was full of seats that night, and many fans came to the stands as a family, some old and some young, and many fans even put on the champion T-shirts with the number '8' printed on the club's advance sales, basically surrounding the entire stadium.

Various banners and slogans wishing Valencia to win the La Liga championship can be seen everywhere.

Champion, champion, champion!
Before the game started, the fans on the scene couldn't wait to shout for the champion. This shows how much the fans expect from their favorite club.

However, it is worth mentioning that at the press conference before the game, Zaragoza's coach released a bold statement: "In any case, we will not be caught at the Mestalla Stadium!"

Many of the main players expressed their desire to win this game!They are determined not to let Valencia step on their own corpses to reach the top of La Liga!
Because Valencia is already 2 points ahead of the No.13 Real Madrid, counting this round of the game and there are 5 rounds, that is to say, as long as this game does not lose, regardless of the outcome and score of Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​they will win the league championship this season.

But sometimes it is like this, the ideal is rich, but the reality is tragic. When the game lasted 10 minutes, the score on the court became 4:0, and Aiello personally staged the fifth hat trick of the season. In the end, the game became 7:0, and Valencia used a massacre to justify the title of the champion.

It is worth mentioning that Zaragoza had a chance to break the ball in this game. Before the end of the game, Ayala was too slow to defend and tripped Diego Milito.

When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, all the fans in the stadium were excited. Regardless of whether the people nearby recognized them or not, they all put their arms around their arms, jumping and jumping, making the fans watching the TV broadcast think that there was a tremor at the scene.

One of the most moving scenes was the 38-year-old goalkeeper Canizares as the captain lifted up the league championship trophy, and this scene also moved many fans at the scene to tears, because after the end of this season, he is very likely to choose to retire and leave more opportunities to the young people next to him...
