Chapter 428 2 Twenty Attacks?Or defense?
2月4号，巴伦西亚坐镇主场迎战近来状态不错的马德里竞技，双方此前在梅斯塔纳球场交战66场，主队以34胜14平18负占据上风，而且在近4个主场对阵马德里竞技2胜2平保持不败。
Atletico Madrid in the away game did not cause much trouble for the home team. In this game, Baraja, who wore the captain's armband, performed very well.
Allowing Valencia to free up more time to focus on offense.
It is worth mentioning that the defenders of Atletico Madrid in the away game were also quite successful in defending Aiello. The Portuguese national team's main defensive midfielder partner Marcheni and Costinha cooperated very tacitly, so Aiello did not do much in this game.
However, as the head star of the team, although he was restricted in the sports game, he created a lot of opportunities when he set the ball, especially in the corner kick.
No one thought that Atlético Madrid's failure was because the home team restricted Aiello too much, so that the other key personnel of the home team did not take into account the defense. In the 26th minute, the captain of the German national team Ballack received Aiello's header at the front of the penalty area and rubbed it. He directly shot without stopping the ball to help the team take the lead.
And this goal is like a flood that opened up promotion, and it was out of control.
In the next game time, Aiello and David Villa each scored a goal, continuing to maintain this season's home victory, while Atletico Madrid relied on Valencia's old Ferrer to score a face-saving goal.
After the game, Valencia's next league opponent Getafe's head coach Schuster declared war on the top team Valencia through their local reporters, "Although we were eliminated by Valencia in the Copa del Rey, we can still find a place in the league, and the home game next weekend is a great opportunity for us. If we can score two goals in the away game, then we will definitely win them when we return home..."
What he didn't expect was that Valencia's coach Flores, including the players, didn't pay attention to Getafe, but focused on the direct dialogue with Barcelona two weeks later.
Although the current gap between the two teams in the standings is quite obvious, with Valencia far ahead of Barcelona by 14 points, the direct contest two weeks later will still affect the final ownership of the league championship this season, because if they win, then they can further expand the points, otherwise, the points gap will narrow, and the morale of the team will also drop rapidly by then, and the suspense of the La Liga championship this season will naturally regenerate...
So when Flores was interviewed by a local reporter from Getafe, he didn't mention the game against Getafe, but talked about the game against Barcelona at home two weeks later. At that time, Schuster's face turned pale with anger.
Similarly, after the end of this round of the league with Osasuna, Barcelona's head coach Frank Rijkaard quickly focused on preparing for the national derby two weeks later.
According to the local media in Catalonia, Laporta has given Rijkaard an ultimatum. If Valencia cannot be won in this game, then he can roll up the mat and go home.
***
What makes Schuster even more unacceptable is that, except for Getafe's local media, everyone's attention is also on the national derby two weeks later.
The league has started 21 rounds, and Barcelona is 14 points behind the leader Valencia. With 17 rounds left in the league, if this direct dialogue between the two sides can beat the leader Valencia, then they still have hope of winning the championship.
This result is difficult to accept for both Barcelona's top management and head coach Frank Rijkaard.
As a world-class giant, Barcelona invests so much every year. It would be fine if they were ranked first by Real Madrid. This year, they were crushed by the little-known Valencia. How can they continue to play?
When the players in this national derby were two weeks away from the game, the official mouthpieces of both sides began to spit. Under this background, some players couldn't bear to join the war of words.
However, there was no further spread.
……
Against the background of frenzied media reports on both sides, Valencia and Barcelona both started their respective leagues.
Suffocated, Schuster was about to win Valencia at home, but the result did not happen as he expected. Aiello's header in the opening minute set the tone for the game - Valencia captured Getafe!
In the end, Valencia defeated Getafe 5:1 in the away game. Aiello played very well personally, contributing two goals and one assist.
Barcelona beat Racing Santander 3-0 at home.
****
Since the national derby is over, the two teams will have a key UEFA Champions League 1/8 final first-leg contest in the middle of next week, so as the game approaches, fans have started their own guesses.
Are the two sides of the game focusing on the league, or are they going to save their energy for the Champions League knockout match starting in the middle of next week?
Soon, the head coaches of both sides were interviewed by reporters, announcing that the main players will play in this game!
Of course, the importance of this game can also be easily analyzed from the La Liga points ranking, but with the confirmation of the head coaches of both sides, the implied meaning is more obvious!
This game is a battle for the league championship this season! !
So this game is getting more and more attention from fans from other regions and countries!Especially the Chinese fans, they found a very interesting thing, that is, Aiello seems to be very energetic when facing Barcelona. Over the past two seasons, his scoring rate against Barcelona is the highest among all teams, exceeding the average of two goals per game!
As a result, there are fewer and fewer fans supporting Barcelona in China, and more and more fans supporting Valencia.
There are hundreds of millions of posts and comments on the Internet!
Most of them hope that Ai Luo will shine again in this game, perform a hat-trick, and hold Barcelona firmly under his feet!
***
As the match day approached, the players on both sides who were still spitting at each other last week shut their mouths and put their minds on the match wholeheartedly. They all knew that the match was not about words, but strength.
In this regard, the Barcelona players know best in their hearts!
Because from the second half of the 2004-2005 La Liga season, until this season's national derby, they kept provoking Valencia's players before the game, but the result?Barcelona only beat Valencia by one goal in the first round of the UEFA Champions League semi-final in the 2005-2006 season, and basically lost the other games!
Moreover, the two rounds of the Spanish Super Cup at the beginning of this season were directly swept away. In the first round of the fourth round of the league, they were defeated by a big score of 4:1 at the Nou Camp!Get the club's worst home defeat since the new century! !
With such a tragic experience, how dare they continue to spit?
Otherwise, if you get slapped in the face again, you will really have no face to make a living in UEFA...
But Barcelona should also have someone to say something at this time to boost morale.
As the captain, Puyol should naturally maintain the morale of the team. After all the Barcelona players arrived at the hotel, he accepted an interview with a local reporter, "This game at the Mestalla Stadium has only one result for us, and that is to win!"
The firm answer caused the local media in Valencia to look at each other.
Next, the reporter can add the following words for Puyol by himself, because for Barcelona in this game, a loss is not much different from a draw. Only a victory can help them rekindle their hope of the league championship.
Puyol's answer was not as popular as expected, so many media did not report any hope for Barcelona's trip to the Mestalla Stadium. Even the "Daily Sports" view was not optimistic. "The home team Valencia has won all in the last three games, scoring 11 goals and only conceding 1 goal. Among them, their leading striker Ai scored 5 goals and maintained a very good state! What's more terrifying is that under his leadership, Valencia scored all 15 home games. Win!! If Barcelona wants to win the away game, they must work hard on the defensive end, otherwise, the result will be worrying..."
"Daily Sports Daily" hopes that Barcelona will do a good job of defending in this game, and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack, but "World Sports Daily" has a different opinion. They hope that Barcelona will play against Valencia in the away game!
"As a traditional giant in Spain, Barcelona must play with its own style and momentum! Even if Valencia has won all [-] games this season, we must attack forward, because we are proud Barcelona! No matter how powerful the enemy is, we should bravely swing our daggers and fight hard!!"
In this way, the Catalan media kept giving advice to Barcelona coach Frank Rijkaard, making him more and more entangled!
What is the attack?Or defense? ?
He knew that according to Valencia's defensive ability, it is not difficult to score goals, but the difficulty lies in the defense after the full attack. At that time, the goal is not scored, but a few goals are conceded, then it is not worth it...
Valencia's ability to win so many games this season is directly related to their high success rate in counterattacks from defense to offense.
