The green devil

Knowing that he is the first Hua countryman to start in La Liga, Zhao Yang is also a little excited, and even has a sense of sacredness.

However, this feeling quickly disappeared and was replaced by heavy pressure.

Just like in the second half of the last match, Zhao Yang was under extremely strict marking.

If you get the ball, someone will double-team, and if you get rid of the defense, you will encounter a rough foul.

The on-site commentator was very speechless, and said: "Is this Zhao Yang being used as Messi to defend? No way, Valencia is also a powerful team second only to Real Madrid and Barcelona. Zhao Yang is just a Spanish player who has just entered La Liga. Player C."

Obviously, Valencia's head coach, Nuno, doesn't consider this. Zhao Yang has become the Spaniard's winner in both games, and he must strangle this point, no matter what tactics he adopts.

Fortunately, after experiencing the tight marking of the opponents in the previous game, the Espanyol team also specially designed tactics for Zhao Yang, allowing Zhao Yang to take the ball less and run more without the ball, and only make the last blow.

Zhao Yang has poor passing, poor consciousness, average physical fitness, and is strong in breaking through and shooting. This tactic is suitable for Zhao Yang.

Zhao Yang was marked to death, and the Espanyol team still had a breakthrough player, and that was Asensio.

No matter how strong a team's defensive ability is, it is impossible to prevent two players from being killed.

Asensio also has a strong breakthrough ability, and Asensio's passing and vision are better, and he is more difficult to mark than Zhao Yang.

In the 5th minute of the game, Asensio broke through the middle and caused a foul by the opponent's midfielder Danilo.

Then Asensio sent a free kick. Zhao Yang wanted to head the ball in the penalty area, but was suppressed by two defenders, and he barely touched the ball.

Valencia is stronger.

In the 8th minute of the game, Valencia quickly counterattacked. Rodrigo in the middle scored the ball. Full-back Barkley hit the goal directly at a 45-degree angle, but the ball bounced off the post.

The Espanyol escaped unharmed.

Then the two sides continued to entangle in the midfield, not giving the opponent an easy chance to shoot.

In the 15th minute, Danilo went straight through the middle and found striker Rodrigo.

Rodrygo took the ball with his back, leaned against the defender, turned around and shot.

Rodrygo didn't look at the goal at all, and the shot was all based on the shooter's intuition.

The ball roared straight to the goal.

The Spaniard goalkeeper Paul's sight was blocked by his teammates. He didn't realize until the ball flew out, but it was too late by this time.

Paul made a save and missed the ball. Fortunately, the post helped Paul again, and the ball bounced off the crossbar.

This is Valencia's second goalpost of the game.

Seeing the ball popping out, Rodrigo couldn't help but put his hands on his head. The ball had been played at his best, and the goalkeeper was powerless, but was rejected by the post.

Coach Nuno was so angry that he almost smashed the windshield.

Without the post, Valencia are now two goals ahead,

Thinking about the draws in the previous rounds, Valencia mostly won without scoring, and this time it seems to repeat the same mistakes again.

The on-site commentator was also very surprised, "The game is a bit weird! Valencia hit two goalposts in 16 minutes. God is not going to let Valencia win?"

"In the past ten minutes, Zhao Yang has been a little quiet. He has neither dribbled nor shot. It seems that the starting lineup is a kind of curse. Maybe for Zhao Yang, the substitute is the best. The key is not to be noticed by others. Time to kill."

Zhao Yang was indeed a little silent, but this was intentional.

The commentator was right in one point. Zhao Yang's technical characteristics are actually suitable for sudden explosions when he is not noticed by the opponent, and catch the opponent by surprise.

During this time, Zhao Yang did not break through from the midfield as before.

At that time, there was no way to do it. Zhao Yang would not have the chance to play if he did not seize every minute and every second to perform. Now, Zhao Yang has basically locked a starting spot. In addition to creating scoring opportunities, he Also avoid injury.

In fact, although Zhao Yang reduced the number of breakthroughs with the ball, he attracted a lot of troops, and his opponents did not dare to relax at all.

If the original Zhao Yang was a warrior who charged into battle, then the current Zhao Yang is more like a killer who doesn't move, but takes a fatal blow when he moves.

After hitting two goalposts in a row, the mentality of Valencia's players was a little unstable.

Both offense and defense are a little impatient.

When attacking, the number of times of cooperation is reduced, and the time of individual breakthrough and shooting increases.

When defending, players move faster and move more, almost all of them are quasi-foul actions.

In the 18th minute of the game, when Zhao Yang was cruising in the frontcourt, he suddenly received a pass from Asensio.

When Zhao Yang caught the ball, he hooked the ball one by one, and the ball went to the other side of his body.

Barkley, the Valencia player who came up to steal, snatched an empty space.

Seeing that the ball was gone, Barkley reached out decisively and grabbed Zhao Yang's jersey without saying a word.

Zhao Yang tricked the defenders and was about to go to the penalty area, but was pulled down by Barkley.

The referee immediately whistled and pointed to the place of the foul, signaling that this was a direct free kick.

This free kick is in a good position, less than 30 meters from the goal, and it can be shot directly.

After Zhao Yang got up, he didn't stand in front of the penalty spot. He looked at Asensio, meaning, come this time.

Asensio looked at the goal, then at the penalty spot, pondered for a moment, and said, "Zhao Yang, you should come. This distance is not suitable for me."

Zhao Yang was a little surprised. He had practiced free kicks with Asensio, and this range was within Asensio's range.

But since Asensio asked him to take this free kick, Zhao Yang didn't postpone it. He asked Asensio to make a fake run over the ball with him to deceive the goalkeeper.

Zhao Yang stood at the penalty spot, stepped back, counted his steps, and waited for the referee's whistle.

When the whistle sounded, Zhao Yang quickly ran towards the ball, and when Zhao Yang approached the ball, Asensio also quickly ran over the ball.

This cross-running is a very common tactic, but Valencia's goalkeeper Domenech was a little dizzy, he didn't know who should take the penalty.

Without allowing Domenico to think, Asensio just passed the ball, Zhao Yang volleyed vigorously and kicked a ground ball.

This is what Zhao Yang considered before making the free throw.

Now almost all goalkeepers know that he can only play deciduous balls, and they are ready to wait for him. If you want to score goals, you cannot rely on the system alone. He must surprise the opponent.

Sure enough, the human wall jumped high, and the ball flew right under the human wall.

When Zhao Yang took the kick, goalkeeper Domenech started to move, waiting for the ball to fly before making any moves.

When Domenech saw the ball flying from under the wall, it was too late to make a save. The ball stuck to the turf and went straight to the net.

1:0

Zhao Yang broke through the gate of the Bat Corps with an unexpected free kick.
