The green devil

seven o'clock in the evening on the 12th

The Balledos Stadium, which can accommodate 3 people, was packed.

Twenty-eight thousand Celta fans and three thousand Espanyol fans sat quietly in the stands, waiting for the start of the game.

An hour before the game, the starting lineups of both sides were announced.

Celta starting lineup: goalkeeper Alvarez, back four: Planas, Cabral, Gomez, three midfielders: Voss, Ladoga, Hernandez, three forwards: Nolito , Orellana, Aspas

Spaniard starting: Goalkeeper: Paulo Lopez

Defenders: Javi Lopez, Alvaro, Rocco, Fuentes

Midfielders: Diop, Perez, Sanchez

Forwards: Caicedo, Moreno, Zhao Yang,

Now the 22 players are lining up in their respective halfs, waiting for referee Laos to blow the whistle to start the game.

This is the highlight of La Liga. In addition to the [-] Spaniard fans who were lucky enough to be present, there are at least [-] million fans waiting to watch the game in front of the TV.

Li Hui and Tang Duo, who have been busy buying the team's La Liga Happy Duo team, also came out again to explain this focus battle in person.

After Tang Duo introduced the starting lineups of the two sides to the fans in front of the TV, he began to introduce the position and situation of the two sides in the league.

"The Espanyol ranks fourth. This is the only Champions League spot left for La Liga by the top three in the Western Super League. At present, the biggest competitors for this spot are the Espanyol and Celta. The difference between the two teams is only one point. Whoever wins will retain the initiative to compete for the Champions League seat."

Li Hui said: "The biggest problem for the Espanyol team is that their midfielder Asensio is absent, and now they have a 433-[-]-[-] formation. In fact, they are not very familiar with this formation. The method is very brilliant, so Sergio can only arrange the lineup in this way."

Tang Duodao: "The main reason is that this formation can give full play to Zhao Yang's role. Whether Celta Vigo can win or not depends mainly on Zhao Yang's performance, and other players can play well as support."

Li Hui said: "Although Celta Vigo's strength is much stronger than that of their opponent Levante in the last round, the Spaniard is not afraid of Celta Vigo, and even has a little bit of Xelta. In the last ten games, the Spaniard has won against Celta. Tower 5 games, tied two games, only lost three games."

Tang Duo said with a smile: "The mutual generation and mutual restraint on the field is also very interesting. World football should have a top ten nemesis."

At this time, Zhao Yang, who was standing a little behind the middle circle, had a complicated mood and a strange expression.

Because at the Baledos Stadium, Zhao Yang accidentally signed up for a skill called "Dive Save".

It's a goalkeeper's technique.

Although it is said that Yi Duo is not overwhelming, unless the goalkeeper is sent off, Zhao Yang really doesn't need it.

This is even more tasteless than skills like "Scorpion Wagging Tail".

Zhao Yang was a little disappointed.

Although the Baledos Stadium is not well-known, it has a profound heritage, and there is a generation of geniuses like "Tsar" Mostovoi who have been active here for many years.

Zhao Yang felt that signing up for this skill, could it be that the system was playing a prank?

Zhao Yang thought he would be able to sign a good skill, so he caught the Celtas by surprise, but now, he was caught off guard by the Celtas' stadium.

beep!

With the whistle of the referee Laos, the game began.

The first kick-off is the away team Espanyol.

Moreno and Caicedo turned their feet in the middle circle, passed back to Zhao Yang behind them, and then inserted into Celta's half without looking back.

Zhao Yang knew that Celta's high-position press was very strong, so he passed the ball back to the defender.

As soon as Zhao Yang passed the ball, the opponent's striker arrived like a wolf.

The striker named Orellana even took Zhao Yang with his body, which was full of provocation.

Zhao Yang didn't pay attention to it and didn't move forward. He was cruising in his own half, ready to catch up with his teammates in the backcourt.

The Celtas' press was really fierce, and the ball was passed back to the central defender. The Spaniard's defender Alvarez passed the ball a little slower, but was tackled by Orellana and fell to the ground.

The referee Laos immediately blew his whistle, verbally warned Orellana, and awarded a free kick.

The free kick in the backcourt was very tasteless, and goalkeeper Lopez simply took the penalty himself.

Not to mention, Lopez has good footwork and vision, and this long pass found Caicedo.

Caicedo wanted to stop the ball with his chest, but was bumped by his opponent. Caicedo didn't stop the ball well, and then the opponent immediately came over and double-teamed.

Under the entanglement of the crowd, Caicedo failed to control the ball and was intercepted by the Celtas.

Celta did not make a long pass after stealing the ball, but quickly made a short pass to level the match.

Most of Celta's short passes are one-kick passes, fast and smooth, like flowing water, so that the Spaniard has nowhere to make fouls.

Celta's short pass is not much slower than the long pass, but it is much safer, and the players also followed the short pass, which is very involved.

Before the Spaniard's players could react, the ball had already passed to the Spaniard's offensive third area.

Diop looked bad. If the Celtas were allowed to pass, they could pass the ball into the goal.

Diop sees the ball passed to Nolito, he suddenly speeds up and steals it.

How can a player like Nolito let people grab the ball so easily? He originally wanted to pass the ball, but seeing Zhao Yang pounce so fast and easily lose his center of gravity, he gave up passing the ball and dunked the ball lightly. Move past Diop.

Diop was shaken, but he was not in a hurry. When he rushed over, he reached out and grabbed Nolito's jersey, dragged Nolito to the sky, and fell on the turf.

This is provocation!

Absolute provocation!

The Celta fans in the stands were very angry. They booed together and shouted: "Yellow card yellow card!"

The game had just started, the referee Laos did not show a yellow card out of caution, but still verbally warned Diop and awarded a free kick.

Seeing this, the commentator Tang Duo smiled, and said: "This big old black knows it well. This is testing the referee's penalty scale. He tried it out. The referee's scale today is a little loose. Maybe he didn't want to The game was cut into fragments, but the result is that the Spaniard may have taken advantage of it, and a team like Celta that focuses on passing and control does not like the Spaniard's physical flow."

This free kick is almost 30 meters away from the goal and is not suitable for direct shots.

Diop is very clear about fouls, and he must not lose too much because of small losses, so he fouled 30 meters away.

Regarding the free kick, Aspas discussed with Nolito, and finally Nolito took the free kick, while Aspas went to the penalty area to grab points.
