894 Yang Yang catches up
In the 18th round of La Liga, Real Madrid faced Villarrel at the Bernabeu Stadium.
Although the Yellow Submarine is playing away, Pellegrini's team has always been tenacious and has a typical European Latin football style, which makes the Yellow Submarine take the lead in launching an offensive against Real Madrid's goal from the opening.
Villarreal carefully set up an offside trap at the start of the game. In just five minutes, Yang Yang, Ibrahimovic and Robben were all offside continuously, resulting in Real Madrid's offense being somewhat passive. The visiting team made a cross from Casorla on the left in the seventh minute, Rossi turned around and made a direct pass, and Ganey shot from the left side of the penalty area.
After conceding the ball, Real Madrid began to push up.
Just two minutes later, Ibrahimovic took the ball from the front of the penalty area and cooperated with the passer Kaka. Kaka inserted it back and broke into the penalty area and passed it to the left side of the goal.
Yang Yang skillfully ran out of the gap and easily pushed the ball without defending, one-to-one!
The two sides began to fight against each other. Even when Villarrell was away, he did not retreat at all against Real Madrid, but soon, Real Madrid gave the opponent a severe and painful lesson.
In the 27th minute, Robben made a cross from the right edge of the penalty area to the back point. Yang Yang volleyed directly from the left side of the small penalty area, directly sending Robben's cross into Villarrell's goal, two-to-one!
After scoring a reversal goal, Real Madrid was full of morale and Yang Yang was even cheered by all the fans of the Bernabeu.
Before the first half was about to end, Cazorla fouled against Yang Yang on the left, and Real Madrid got a free kick opportunity in the frontcourt on the left side of the penalty area, but the angle was too far off and there was little chance of a shot directly.
Xavi Alonso took the direct free kick. Ramos, Pepe and Ibrahimovic all attracted firepower, but Yang Yang grabbed the landing point four meters in front of the goal, jumped high, headed the ball, and broke Villarre's goal again.
Three to one!
...
"goallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!"
"hat trick!"
"O God, another hat trick!"
"Another hat trick from Yang Yang, this is his three consecutive games so far!"
“This is simply incredible!”
"Yang Yang showed an astonishing competitive state after returning from injury this season."
...
After Yang Yang scored, the first half ended quickly.
More than 80,000 fans of the entire Bernabeu stood up from their seats, giving the warmest applause to the Real Madrid players who walked off the stadium, especially Yang Yang, and shouting Yang Yang's name in unison.
Since returning to the team during the winter break, Yang Yang has performed so well.
In three games, two league rounds, and one Cup of Rey, Yang Yang all performed a hat trick.
This is definitely an incredible feat and an exciting achievement.
...
"At present, I have not got the detailed data on hand. I don't know if this is the first time in Real Madrid's history that a player has played a hat trick in three consecutive official games, but one thing I can be sure of is that this will definitely be a data that has been recorded in Real Madrid's history, or even Spanish football history."
"After Yang Yang returned from the winter break, his condition has improved significantly than before. He once again amazed us at his strength and his unlimited potential to dig further."
"I still remember that Yang Yang said before that he will soon usher in the golden period of his career. Now, we have seen a super killer who has scored hat tricks in three consecutive games, and the three opponents are Getafe, Levante and Villarrell, who are not weak."
"There is no doubt that we are seeing a Yang Yang who is constantly becoming mature and also becoming more sharp."
"After becoming a father and missing for more than two months at the beginning of the season, Yang Yang walked back onto the court with heavy pressure and burden, but burst out with amazing strength and performance."
"Maybe, this year will not be Yang Yang's year, but his performance on the court and his achievements will always be remembered by all fans who like him, just like the consecutive hat tricks in the last three games."
...
The first half was reversed 3-1, and Real Madrid celebrated a little while at the break.
The main reason is that the players celebrated Yang Yang's three consecutive hat-tricks, which is undoubtedly a very surprising achievement. What's more terrifying is that the stars in Real Madrid know better than anyone else that Yang Yang is still maintaining strong self-discipline and hunger.
Especially after learning that he was about to become a father, he began to become more self-disciplined and put forward higher requirements for himself. He also looked more mature and more leader-oriented on and off the court.
After the second half of the game, Villarrell still tried to create a threat, but in the 69th minute, Yang Yang made a cross from the left, and Kaka scored a goal from the edge of the small penalty area, expanding the score to four-one.
In the end, this game was also frozen in this score.
Real Madrid reversed Villarreal four-1 at home with Yang Yang's hat trick.
…………
…………
Yang Yang scored a hat trick in three consecutive official games, which immediately became a hot topic of media and fans around the world to report and discuss. Everyone was amazed at Yang Yang's performance and how long can his state last?
"Yang Yang fights four with one!"
In a four-to-one reversal of Villarreal, Yang Yang created four goals from Real Madrid with a hat trick and an assist, becoming the absolute protagonist of the game. The Madrid media are also generous in their praise for him.
Louis Nieto, a famous Spanish football reporter, commented, "Villarell only has one less Yang Yang than Real Madrid in this game!"
Nieto believes that Villarreal is the best team in the La Liga this season except Real Madrid and Barcelona. The Yellow Submarine is not the kind of uncompetitive mid- and lower-level team. They are currently ranked third in La Liga and have shown strong competitiveness in the European arena, but such a team still finds it difficult to compete with the two superstars in the Spanish Super League.
"In the 11th round of this season, at the Camp Nou Stadium, although Barcelona took the lead with Villa's goal, Villarrell equalized the score five minutes later. Villarrell performed very well and had the power to fight."
"But the situation in the second half was a turnaround, and Messi's two goals completely killed the game and brought Villarreal back to its original form."
"The same situation also happened in this round of the Bernabeu battle. Villarrel took the lead for a while, but then Yang Yang scored three goals in one breath and scored three hat tricks in three consecutive official games. This is definitely an incredible achievement."
"This is definitely not a coincidence. From these two games, it is not difficult to see that as the best team in La Liga except for the two giants, Villarrel is not without the power to fight against Real Madrid and Barcelona. The only thing they lack is to have a superstar who can turn the game around at a critical moment, like Yang Yang and Messi."
Nieto also believes that with Yang Yang's amazing performance after his comeback, the battle for the La Liga scorer king this season has just begun.
Barcelona defeated La Coruña four-zero away in this round. Although Messi had two assists, he only scored one goal. Instead, Yang Yang's goal efficiency has been significantly improved this season, but the assists have declined significantly.
Now, Messi leads the La Liga scorer list with twenty goals, but Yang Yang has also successfully chased 16 goals with two consecutive hat tricks, only four goals away from Messi's scorer king.
If, in December, the whole world felt that Yang Yang had no hope, then now, Yang Yang is catching up.
The distance between four balls is no longer an insurmountable gap for Yang Yang.
Nieto expressed emotion that he was fortunate to see the birth of a superstar like Yang Yang. He believed that fans living in the Yang Yang era were extremely happy.
"Maybe, there are still many people who will not agree with this view now, but I believe that over time, everyone will miss the time when they can watch Yangyang's game every week."
Regarding the upcoming FIFA Awards Conference, Nieto said that Yang Yang has already achieved three consecutive championships and no longer needs to rely on FIFA awards to prove himself. Moreover, 2010 is the year of the World Cup.
"FIFA began to select World Footballer in 1991, and since then, there has been a rule that has never been broken, that is, in the World Cup year, the player who wins the annual award must be from the World Cup champion team."
"For example, Romario in 1994, Zidane in 1998, and Ronaldo in 2002 were all like this. The most typical example was in 2006. Italy, which won the championship, performed well overall, but lacked a convincing star, so FIFA selected the captain Cannavaro from the overall Italian team to serve as the representative."
Nieto believes that according to this rule, this year's FIFA Golden Ball Award should also be from the World Cup champion Spain.
From the current perspective, playing for Barcelona Xavi and Iniesta has received the most recognition, but Casillas, who plays for Real Madrid, may also cause accidents, and Sneijder, who currently plays for Manchester City.
"The Dutch midfielder played an important role in both the club and the World Cup. His only disadvantage is that he was under the aura of Yang Yang and failed to lead the Netherlands to win the World Cup. However, his performance and role were undoubtedly his reputation for winning the award."
After analyzing it, Nieto believes that the first FIFA Golden Ball Award this year will likely interrupt Yang Yang's monopoly on the annual individual awards for three consecutive years, because both Yang Yang and Messi are seriously lacking in the World Cup.
Nieto's analysis has also been recognized by major media around the world, and many media also feel sorry for Yang Yang, but this is the sorrow of being a weak country in football, just like Ibrahimovic, who has no choice but to play in the World Cup.
Many people believe that if the Chinese team can enter the semi-finals, the possibility of Yang Yang winning the award will be much greater than now. Unfortunately, the Chinese team stopped in the semi-finals. No matter how good Yang Yang performs in the club competition, he will only miss the grand prize.
On the second day after Real Madrid finished Villarreal, before the awards ceremony was held, FIFA officially announced the top three shortlists for the first FIFA Golden Ball Awards.
