Chapter 1249 Don't Go!
On the evening of February 11th, at the Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid.
Real Madrid host Villarreal in the first leg of the Copa del Rey.
Before this game, everyone was worried about Real Madrid's recent downturn, but Ancelotti showed strong confidence before the game, firmly believing that the team can win the opponent at home.
At the beginning of the game, Real Madrid, who were playing at home, aggressively pressed the offense, directly suppressed the opponent, and frequently got opportunities.
Yang Yang and Suarez paired up as two forwards, and Real Madrid returned to the combination of 442, but the foot style was not very smooth. The players frequently missed scoring opportunities for each other, and Yang Yang even assisted Marcelo to score a goal. The referee signaled Marcelo offside and did not concede the goal.
Until the 31st minute, after Suarez made a steal in the frontcourt, he sent a direct pass. Yang Yang quickly inserted in, waded past the goalkeeper after receiving the ball, and successfully pushed the empty goal with his left foot, opening the scoring for Real Madrid. than zero.
Afterwards, Yang Yang and Suarez cooperated continuously, and both created several scoring opportunities for each other, but they failed to score.
After changing sides to fight again in the second half, Yang Yang suddenly pulled to the left side of the penalty area to receive a pass from Isco, and cooperated with David Silva to hit the wall twice in a row, quickly cutting into Villarreal's penalty area, and finally It was Yang Yang who stabbed before falling to the ground in front of the goal, assisted David Silva and hit a volley in front of the goal, two to zero.
Real Madrid then got another corner kick, Vermaelen headed home to make it 3-0.
But in the 61st minute, Villarreal scored a goal, which was a long-range shot from the outside.
In the 70th minute, after Yang Yang dribbled the ball in from the left side of the penalty area, he shot a cold arrow with his right foot and shot a long shot, but was intercepted by the opponent and hit the defender's hand. The referee signaled for a penalty kick yellow card.
Yang Yang did not personally take the penalty, but gave Suarez a penalty kick, and the Uruguayan striker easily pushed and hit.
In the end, with a goal and two assists from Yang Yang, Real Madrid defeated Villarreal 4-1 at home.

On the evening of February 14th, the Bernabéu Stadium.
In the twenty-third round of La Liga, Real Madrid played against Deportivo at home.
Deportivo, who was a guest, took the lead in attacking, trying to use the opening rush to create a threat, but Real Madrid has not been in a good state recently. Although they are playing at home, they are still playing steadily.
Until the 22nd minute, De Bruyne, who started as a substitute for Di Maria, sent a diagonal pass from the right. Yang Yang then nodded and headed back to the center. record.
Although they took the lead, Real Madrid's performance in this game was still unsatisfactory. On the contrary, Deportivo created two good opportunities at the beginning of the second half and almost equalized the score, but Kurtu Wa performed steadily, did not give the opponent a chance, and tried to keep the goal.
In the 73rd minute, Azpilicueta sent a direct pass. After Yang Yang got the ball from the left, he suddenly threw off the defender and cut in. After attracting the attention of the defender, he made a diagonal pass behind him. Suarez followed up and shot. Score, two to zero.
This score was finally maintained until the end of the midfield. With Yang Yang's two assists, Real Madrid defeated Deportivo 2-0 and once again defended their position as the league leader.
Although Yang Yang failed to score a goal in this game, his performance was still impressive with two assists. He was elected the best player of the game again. Everyone believed that even if he did not score, he was still the best player .
Another well-recognized player is Illararamendi, who replaced Mascherano in the starting lineup.
The strength of this young Spanish midfielder is definitely no problem. Everyone knows that he is a very capable player, but it is a pity that he has never been able to integrate into Real Madrid.
In this game against Deportivo, Illararamendi played very well, not only covered a large area, but also had one clearance, two interceptions, six steals, 80 passes, and a success rate of 100. Ninety out of 10, he won six of the nine individual duels. These are all very good statistics, especially as a defensive midfielder.
Ancelotti also publicly praised Illarramendi at the press conference after the game. He believed that the midfielder would become the most solid barrier in the team's backcourt.
Yang Yang also specifically praised Illarramendi in an interview with the media after the game, "I hope he can stay. We all know that he is a very capable player and he can win a position in Real Madrid."
Not only that, Yang Yang also said that Iliaramendi is becoming more and more confident.
...
While Real Madrid beat Deportivo 2-0 with difficulty, their rivals Atletico Madrid suffered an away game in Waterloo, unexpectedly losing 0-2 to Celta Vigo.
As a result, the situation in La Liga has become clearer.
Real Madrid ranks first in La Liga with 60 points, and the Galaxy Battleship has 20 wins and 3 losses this season. So far, there has not been a draw, which also surprised everyone.
Barcelona ranked second with 56 points, 4 points behind Real Madrid, but recently, Barcelona has won consecutive victories, and has won 11 consecutive victories so far.
Atlético de Madrid ranked third with 47 points, 13 points behind Real Madrid. It is basically difficult to attack the league title. If there is no accident, the La Liga champion this season will be between Real Madrid and Barcelona born.
And who can have the last laugh, the key is to see who can persevere.
...
The day after Real Madrid defeated Deportivo, Yang Yang received two invitations.
At the same time, the Laureus World Sports Association also officially announced the shortlist for the 2015 Laureus Sports Awards.
Not surprisingly, Yang Yang was once again shortlisted for the best male athlete. He has been running with him for many years, and in the past few years, he has never been to the Lawrence Awards Ceremony, because he knows that he Not getting an award.
For a long time, the Laureus Sports Awards have awarded individual awards to sports such as tennis, baseball, track and field, golf, etc., and team awards will only consider football, because football has always been a team sport.
As the number one player in world football in the past few years, Yang Yang has been shortlisted for the best male athlete every year, but he has never won an award. This is also in line with the law of the Lawrence Sports Awards in the past few years.
If there is no accident, he will be shortlisted again this year, but he will still run with him.
Of course, many outside media and fans are also complaining about Yang Yang, because his performance in the past few years has been really outstanding, but he has never been able to impress Lawrence. Many people also believe that this is also a kind of authority for Lawrence. weaken.
At least, in the field of football, everyone recognizes the FIFA Ballon d'Or more, but no one cares about Lawrence.
On the contrary, among the nominations for the best team award, football occupies an important position this time.
The World Cup champion German national team, the World Cup runner-up Chinese national team, and Real Madrid, which once again staged a grand slam, among the six nominated teams, football occupies three seats, and they all look very promising Competitiveness.
Needless to say, the German national team, the World Cup championship is their most important award. Real Madrid also relies on the championship honor to gain favor. As for the Chinese national team, they can reach the World Cup finals, although they lost to the German team in the end. , but no matter what, the Chinese team can be regarded as a glorious defeat, and staged a miracle that will go down in history.
In this case, no matter who wins the award among the three candidate teams, they can be regarded as well-deserved.
But what really caught Yang Yang's attention was the two invitation letters in his hand.
One is from the Lawrence World Sports Association, they send out invitation letters to candidates every year, Yang Yang is not surprised to receive it again, but the other one is from the Lawrence preparatory team in Shanghai, they invite Yang Yang with all sincerity Back home for this event.
Because this year's Lawrence Awards was held in Shanghai, China.
Not only that, Chinese athlete Yao Juren and baseball player Li Na will receive the Special Achievement Award and the Sportsmanship Award respectively.
Regardless of the Lawrence official or the Shanghai preparatory team, they obviously hope that Yang Yang can return to China to participate, and of course hope to use his influence to greatly boost the influence of the Lawrence World Sports Awards.
...
"They invited me too." Su Ye also received an invitation letter.
Yang Yang turned on his mobile phone, looked at the game schedule, shook his head and said, "Go at that time, I'm afraid I may not have time."
The Lawrence Awards Ceremony will be on April 18, but if Real Madrid can reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League, April 18 will happen to be on a Saturday, which means that Yang Yang will need to miss a league game then.
And the most important thing is that Yang Yang went there just to watch other people win prizes, why bother?
"Then what if they give you the award?" Su Ye asked with a smile.
Yang Yang shrugged his shoulders, "Then you go up to accept the award on my behalf, and that's a good thing."
Su Ye was also amused, and she also knew that it was really unlikely that Yang Yang would win the award.
Lawrence's individual awards have never been awarded to football players. The exception is the best comeback award, which was given to Ronaldo who performed well in the World Cup in Korea and Japan at that time. As for the most important male athlete, that has never been given. .
Yang Yang obviously didn't dare to think about it.
With his current status and influence, since he knew he couldn't win the award, why bother to go?
Do you really want to go live to watch someone win an award?
Yang Yang is not such a good person. He couldn't just boost Lawrence's momentum for no reason, but he returned empty-handed. Even if he was willing, his agent probably wouldn't, and Real Madrid probably wouldn't be happy either.
To put it bluntly, April 18th is a critical stage of the season. It's okay to win the prize, but if you don't get the prize, you can take it back. Isn't this a big advantage?
"Anyway, whoever wants to go, I will definitely not go." Yang Yang is very sure.
After speaking, he casually threw the invitation letter into the trash can.
