Yang Yang stood on the sidelines, embraced Isco who was off the court, and stepped into the court.

With a lunge, Yang Yang sprinted forward quickly, as if he was stretching his legs, and then raised his hands, applauding his teammates and fans in the stands.

"Yang Yang finally came off the bench."

"Real Madrid's previous two substitutions were to strengthen the offense. They replaced the underperforming teenager Ashraf with Carvajal, and then replaced Kante with Modric. They both wanted to break the field. stalemate, but it didn't work."

"Zidane finally used his nirvana and replaced Yang Yang."

"Real Madrid fans are also full of expectations for Yang Yang, but they don't know whether he can save the team from danger again tonight."

...

"It's still Real Madrid's offense."

"Pass to the front of the penalty area, Yang Yang makes the ball, pass it into the penalty area, and hand it over to Suarez."

"Suarez hits the goal directly!"

"It was saved by the goalkeeper, but the ball didn't fly far, it was still outside the penalty area."

"De Bruyne took the ball to the right and gave it to Mbappe."

"Mbappe goes to the bottom line and passes back to the middle of the penalty area..."

"Yang Yang's reception in front of the gate..."

"Have the opportunity!"

"The ball went in!!!"

"Sure enough, a goal!!!"

"Yang Yang! It's Yang Yang!!!"

"At the critical moment, it was Yang Yang's goal again!"

"He really scored!!!!"

"At the critical moment, he did not disappoint the Real Madrid fans who supported him."

"Very astute movement, very smart!"

"Yang Yang's easy movement in front of the goal sent Mbappe's cross into Leganes' goal."

"Many people say that Yang Yang's goals in the past two years seem so mediocre, not as dazzling as at the peak of the year, neither long-distance raids, nor the performance of passing several people in succession, even on the court. The explosive power is gone."

"Yes, we must pay attention. Yang Yang is already thirty-one years old. Although he has been training all these years, and even keeps reducing his weight, he still can't stop the time."

"But from the goal just now, we can see that Yang Yang's running position is still so unpredictable."

"Why did Real Madrid get so many chances in the first 80 minutes, but whether it was Suarez or Mbappe, they missed opportunities frequently and failed to turn them into goals, but Yang Yang can seize such a chance. A seemingly ordinary chance to score for Real Madrid?"

"This is Yang Yang's ability, and it is also the most valuable contribution that Yang Yang can bring to Real Madrid!"

...

Relying on Yang Yang's goal, Real Madrid finally drew Leganes 2-2 at home, and finally advanced to the semi-finals with a total score of 3-2.

On the weekend, in the twenty-first round of La Liga, Real Madrid challenged Valencia away.

Just seven minutes into the game, Real Madrid kicked a pass behind the outside of the 30-meter zone and sent the ball directly into the Valencia penalty area. Goalkeeper Neto attacked, but they collided with central defender Garay, who was returning to defense.

Yang Yang, who was pressing every step of the way, picked up a big bargain from the side, and directly volleyed the ball into Valencia's goal, opening the scoring for Real Madrid.

In the 31st minute, Toni Kroos made a pass from the outside of the restricted area. Yang Yang threw away the defensive player and plugged in. He volleyed directly from the upper left corner of the small restricted area and sent the ball into Valencia's goal again. Two to zero!

After scoring two goals in a row, Real Madrid played more oppressively.

Although Valencia pulled back a game in the 58th minute of the second half, in the 84th and 89th minutes, Marcelo and Toni Kroos scored two consecutive goals for Real Madrid, and finally helped Real Madrid 4-1 away beat Valencia.

Yang Yang, who scored twice, was elected as the best player of the game. This is also his twenty-fifth La Liga goal this season.

...

Barcelona played against Alaves at home this round, and the game also played very dangerously.

Although it was a dangerous three-pointer in the end, the game was still frightening to watch.

Yang Yang took the initiative to mention the Barcelona game in an interview with the media after the away game against Valencia. He said with a smile that he saw a Barcelona team that was showing signs of fatigue.

"We have carried out a large-scale rotation in the Copa del Rey, coupled with the winter break training, these have made our physical reserves better, and since the double match for a week in January, I can see that Barcelona has gradually shown its strength. Tired, this is our chance."

"My teammates and I are full of confidence. We will continue to catch up. I hope our opponents will not fall behind too early!"

Afterwards, Yang Yang said confidently, "We still have a make-up match at the end of February, but I believe there is no need to wait for that match. Soon, we will be at the top of the La Liga standings!"

From the beginning of the season, Real Madrid fell behind Barcelona, ​​and now they are rushing to catch up, and they are still three points behind.

Due to the lack of one round, these three points are not fatal, but according to the analysis of Yang Yang and Zidane, it is best to catch up with Barcelona before the resumption of the Champions League, so that the team's game pressure will be less.

If the Champions League knockout rounds start, but the team still has to fight against Barcelona in the league, this is undoubtedly a huge pressure.

Whether it is to actively mention Barcelona, ​​or to stimulate teammates such as Marcelo and Modric, Yang Yang has only one purpose, that is to let Real Madrid players regain their status and surpass Barcelona in the standings as soon as possible.

The next day, Barcelona challenged the Spaniard away and staged a city derby.

The entire game was played under the control of Barcelona. The visiting team's ball possession rate once again exceeded 70%, reaching 74%. However, in the 66th minute, Ter Stegen made a kick-off error. , Counter attack after being cut off by the opponent.

In the end, the two teams shook hands and made a draw.

After the battle, the Catalan media pointed their guns at Digne and Semedo, who performed sluggishly, and believed that the lack of offensive power of the two wings was the reason why the team could not win the Spaniard.

Due to this draw, Barcelona missed two points and narrowed the gap with Real Madrid to one point.

But you must know that Real Madrid has one game less than Barcelona.

This made the Catalan media very dissatisfied, thinking that Valverde's team should work harder.

"This is the best opportunity in the past few years. After 22 rounds, we are still ahead of Real Madrid. We should maintain this lead until the end of the season!"

However, media close to Real Madrid, such as Marca and AS, are cheering. They all believe that Yang Yang's psychological warfare against Barcelona has had an effect. This team is too tired and is losing points.

On the other side, after entering February, the UEFA Champions League round of 16 knockout rounds will soon be ushered in.

Neymar, who transferred from Barcelona to Paris Saint-Germain last summer, challenged Real Madrid and aimed at Yang Yang.

"I can't wait to play Real Madrid now. I look forward to this coming soon. Everyone in our team is ready. The era of Real Madrid and Yang Yang is over. We will give it to the Parc des Princes. A painful lesson for Yang Yang!"
