Chapter 345 Breaking the Record...
*****
The Ballad Stadium was packed that day. Apart from the [-] tickets reserved for the visiting team Valencia, the remaining [-] tickets for the home team were also sold out, which means that this derby in the Valencia region attracted almost half of the residents of Villarreal.
So when Huang Jianxiang, a UEFA Champions League commentator from China's CCAV-5, came to the studio, he said jokingly, "It's not easy for this small town with only 48000 people to fill this stadium, but I believe this game will not change because of Villarreal's supporters..."
Valencia injured the main goalkeeper before the game, so Pellegrini's requirement for the team at home is to attack non-stop, attack like a tide!
Because Valencia's main goalkeeper in this game is the No. [-] goalkeeper Mora, who rarely has the chance to make an appearance this season, it is destined that he does not cooperate well with the defensive players in the back line.
Be sure to use the opening period to grab a head start!
Then play back to the team's accustomed ground penetration style of play.
It is worth mentioning that in this game, Villarreal did take advantage of an opportunity to grab the start. In the first minute of the game, Diego Forlan scored a goal by using substitute goalkeeper Mora and a mistake in the defense.
The entire Love Song stadium seemed to tremble slightly at this moment.
Even Hyde said sourly during the commentary, "Although I expected to lose the ball in this game, I didn't expect it to be lost so early. It's only a minute since the start!"
At the same time, the local commentator in Catalonia also commented: "Tsk tsk tsk, the game has only lasted 1 minute, and the visiting team Valencia is one goal behind! Is this team still beating Villarreal's Valencia with three goals at home four days ago?"
Seeing this goal, Barcelona coach Frank Rijkaard, who was tied by Inter Milan in the away game, also clenched his fists lightly, applauding secretly!
Although the team's top management used some small means to put pressure on Valencia and created a lot of opportunities, but he sincerely did not want to meet Valencia in the semifinals!
Because against this team, the future is full of uncertainty!
Compared to Valencia, Villarreal is easier to deal with!
It's just that Rijkaard was happy, and it didn't take long for Aiello to pull back a goal for Valencia, and the score became 1:1!
Valencia scored a precious away goal!
So when Ai Luo used his personal ability to break into the penalty area and score a goal, Pellagrini's intestines were full of regrets. Why was he not satisfied with scoring a goal?Now stealing chickens won't cost you money...
Seeing the goal scored by Aiello, not only Rijkaard was upset, but even the Catalan media was also very upset!However... Their displeasure is fundamentally different from Rijkaard's displeasure, because the report of "World Sports Daily" made many people think that Valencia will be tested in this game.
But in fact, after Valencia stabilized their position, they quickly equalized the score on the field. This was a perfect counterattack to them, which was equivalent to hitting them directly in the face!
So very upset!
Immediately, the game began to enter the normal track.
Since the two teams are opponents in the same district, there is no difference in culture. In terms of technical and tactical play, they also emphasize ground coordination and penetration in the middle. It is just that Valencia pays more attention to offense and defense on the side while emphasizing ground coordination.
So it is destined that this game does not belong to the home team Villarreal.
Before the end of the first half, Aiello formed a breakthrough on the left and cut into the penalty area without hesitation. Then when everyone thought he was going to hit the goal, he suddenly crossed the other side of the penalty area. Vicente easily overtook the score to 2:1.
Riquelme stood in front of his penalty area and looked at Aiello, who was celebrating with his teammates. He seemed to have mixed feelings in his heart. You must know that Aiello last season was at most a promising new star for Riquelme, but his performance this season was a superstar performance.
This is true whether it is the league or the Champions League!
Encountering such an opponent is a disaster for the team! !
indeed so!In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. Pellegrini asked the defensive players to strengthen their defense against Aiello.
Soon, the home team received results.
But... because of paying too much attention to the defense of Ai Luo, it directly led to the neglect of other Valencia offensive players, and the entire defense line lost sight of the other.
Finally, the price was paid in the No.608 minute, when Albelda sent an overhead kick, David Villa understood it, and shot directly at the ball, widening the score to two goals.
At this time, the fans who were worried about Valencia in this game can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Leading Villarreal 3:1 in the away game, will the performance at home be worse?
So... In the following time, the [-] fans of the visiting team cheered and sang "Valencia Hymn" and "Song of Ai"
In the end, the game ended with this score.
******
At the regular press conference after the game in the evening, the media reporters who had previously doubted Valencia's game seemed to have forgotten all the words and deeds before the game, and began to sing praises for Valencia.
Flores also once again saw the shamelessness of reporters.
On the first day, many mainstream European media announced in advance that Valencia had entered the semi-finals.
However, for the sake of caution, Flores did not express the certainty of the team's victory. When interviewed by reporters, he appeared very modest, "The first round of the game at the Love Song Stadium was just an accident. We should still treat the second round of the game rigorously!"
Hearing Flores' answer, countless reporters began to slander him in their hearts: You're going to pretend, you've scored two goals in away games, and you have three away goals in hand, and you still have to treat them rigorously?Keep pretending! !
The next day, in addition to reporting on Valencia's away victory over Villarreal, the mainstream European media also focused on Aiello, because with his goals in this game, he has already scored 59 goals in this season's Champions League match, surpassing Puskas in the 60-02 season and Ruud van Nistelrooy in the 03-[-] season for the second most goals in a single season in the Champions League.
Now Aiello is only one goal away from the 62 goals scored by Altafini in a single season in the UEFA Champions League in the 63-[-] season. You must know that Valencia has already stepped into the semi-finals with half a foot, which means that Aiello still has at least three Champions League games.
Even the 68-year-old Altafini was interviewed by "Torino Sport" at this time, and he also encouraged Aiello specifically, "After waiting for so many years, someone is finally about to break the single-season scoring record I created back then. This kid is not bad! Come on!!!"
A new record is about to be born, which is always worth looking forward to.
*****
On the weekend, Valencia also ushered in a new round of league opponents, they challenged Sevilla away.
Since they defeated Villarreal in the away game in the middle of the week, the next round of the game basically lost suspense, so Flores did not make many adjustments to this game and continued to play with the strongest lineup.
After all, the Champions League has basically been able to enter the semi-finals, and there are not many variables.
But the league is different. In the remaining nine rounds of the league, there are still many variables. In order to hold the initiative in your own hands, you can't relax in any league!
At the same time, because Sevilla also focused on the quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup, this game did not send most of the main force. Sevilla, who played with half of the main force, lost 1:4 at home to Valencia led by Aiello.
Since Barcelona also won the league at the same time, the gap between the two sides is still 11 points, but with only eight rounds left in the league, Valencia is getting closer and closer to the league championship.
But is it really that close?
It is worth mentioning that after playing this league, Aiello has increased his league goals to 34, which means that he has already scored the same number of goals as Ronaldo, who scored the third most goals in a single season in La Liga.
Except for the local media in Valencia who highly praised it, the Chinese media are the happiest.
But at this time, the local media in Catalonia looked sour. You must know that it was their pride that was equalized.
After Altafini accepted an interview to support Aiello, Ronaldo, who is preparing for the weekend league in Madrid, also accepted an interview with "Marca", and then talked about Ailuo's scoring record in a single season in La Liga.
Ronaldo seems to have been mentally prepared for this question, "Haha, new records will be created sooner or later, but... I still have to cheer for this kid! In the remaining seven rounds of the league, we must do our best! Only six goals away from Pacino's record of 38 goals in a single season..."
But because Ronaldo is in Real Madrid, he didn't say more direct words, because Pacino is a famous player in Real Madrid, so he still needs to pay attention to his words and deeds.
So it feels weird.
But these are nothing to those who pay attention to Ailuo, because they themselves are full of confidence in Ailuo. In their minds, Ailuo is synonymous with miracles and records.
At this time, "Valencia Sports Daily" is also cheering for Aiello, "When it comes to the second half of the season, it is always time to achieve results, and sometimes it is also the time to set records. Ai has scored 34 goals in the Champions League this season, second only to Altafini's 38 goals in a single season. Scored more goals and broke the records in front of him..."
In order to express their support for Aiello, the local fans in Valencia are going to give Ailuo a big surprise in the home game of the Champions League quarter-final second leg!
