Chapter 912 Is This Guy Crazy?
When Real Madrid played against Malaga at home, Barcelona played away to Valencia.
This is a tough fight, because Valencia is one of the few strong teams in La Liga that can compete with the Western Super duo.
What's more, after Guardiola started coaching Barcelona, his first two visits to the Mestagna, both ended in a draw, and even narrowly lost one.
This season, Valencia has lost the two leading stars of Villa and David Silva in a row, but the overall strength is still good, Barcelona dare not be too careless, and Guardiola even rarely poses a conservative line-up.
Three-five-two, but a bit similar to four-four-two, Messi and Villa were pushed to the front.
But even so, Barcelona played very hard in Mestagna. The opponents knew how to freeze Barcelona's organization and attack. They played evenly with Barcelona throughout the game.
The possession was naturally at Barcelona's feet, but Valencia's counter-attack was also impressive.
In the first half, the two sides shook hands 0-0. Barcelona did not show the state of beating their opponents steadily. Valencia also became more aggressive in the second half, apparently trying to blow up an upset at home and win the mighty Barcelona.
You know, Barcelona have only lost one game this season, and that was a 0-1 loss at home to Real Madrid.
In addition to the Galactic Battleship, looking at the whole of Europe, no team can beat Barcelona.
Valencia want to be the second team!
But that's how it happens sometimes, when you start to be demanding and distracted, and your opponent's fatal blow comes.
In the 77th minute, Xavi made a straight pass. Adriano dunked the defender on the left side of the penalty area and then made a pass. Messi ran to the gap, pushed the goal from 11 meters in front of the goal, and scored He scored his twenty-ninth goal of the season.
In the end, with Messi's lore goal, Barcelona beat Valencia 1-0 away.
It was the first time in three years that Barcelona had beaten their opponents at the Mestagna.
But just after the game, when the Barcelona players walked off the stadium, they heard news from another stadium.
…………
…………
"What? Eight to zero?" Pique exclaimed.
"Real Madrid is crazy, right? Last time they played 7-0, this game is 8-0?"
Not only Pique, but everyone at Barca also felt incredible.
This is crazy.
Fifteen goals in two rounds, it's just crazy.
More importantly, everyone feels that Real Madrid's state is returning, and their morale and fighting spirit are getting stronger and better.
From their ten-man victory over Espanyol, the team seemed to have found the key to victory.
Barcelona beat Valencia painstakingly, but Real Madrid won by eight goals, but they are also suffering. The players felt an indescribable pressure.
They all know very well that Real Madrid will always chase them.
Perhaps, a seven-point lead is not insurance.
At this moment, Messi suddenly walked towards Vilanova and asked with concern, "Where's Yang Yang?"
That's what Messi cares about most.
At the beginning of this season, he led the La Liga scorer list all the way, and even he was ahead of Yang Yang by more than ten goals at one time. Everyone thought that he was already winning, but no one thought that Yang Yang's performance was better after his comeback at the end of November. one.
In the last round of the away game against Deportivo Deportivo, he even had a big four, overturning Messi in one breath, reaching the top scorer list in La Liga with 29 goals, completing an epic reversal and winning the world media and The unanimous appreciation of the fans.
This also brought huge pressure to Messi, so that in this game, Messi performed very hard, but Goddess of Luck did not seem to be on his side. He missed three single shots, and Messi felt very angry.
Fortunately, he finally scored a goal in the second half, his twenty-ninth goal of the season.
Finally got it back!
If Yang Yang didn't score in this round, Messi would now be on a par with Yang Yang.
Seeing Messi's eager eyes, Vilanova suddenly couldn't bear to tell him, because he was very aware of Messi's hard work and dedication this season, and he was convinced that Messi could defeat any opponent, including Manchester United's Cristia No Ronaldo, however, this time he wants to challenge the crazy Yang Yang.
A top killer who has been in a truce for more than two months and has scored consecutive goals as soon as he comes back.
"Did Yang Yang score?" Messi asked with concern, he had a very ominous premonition.
Real Madrid's number one killer is Yang Yang, who beat Malaga 8-0. It is very unlikely that Yang Yang did not score.
But Messi still wants to know.
"How many did he get in?" Messi asked again.
Facing Messi's questioning, Vilanova took a deep breath, glanced at Guardiola, and finally said it.
"Four!"
"Four?" Messi couldn't believe his ears.
Two consecutive big four games?
"Is this guy crazy?" Pique was also shocked, "Did he take drugs?"
Pique has always been careless, his mouth is big, and his words are messy. No one in Barcelona will believe what he said. Yang Yang doesn't need to take drugs, but everyone is very shocked, because two consecutive big four games, this How amazing is the attack power?
This is a guy who can score 60 or 70 goals in a single season!
After Messi got the answer, he didn't say a word, turned around, walked into the player tunnel, and walked back to the locker room.
Guardiola, Vilanova and the Barcelona players all looked at him blankly, a little sad for him.
The whole world knows that Messi has extraordinary talents and skills. He is known as the most talented top talent in world football after Maradona, and as he matures, he begins to become more and more. Efforts will improve the level faster and faster.
But even so, he still had to subdue under Yang Yang.
Messi is not convinced, and the Barcelona players are also not convinced by him.
But if they could find other reasons and excuses before, then this season, they couldn't find any words to convince themselves, because Yang Yang missed eleven rounds for more than two months, nearly two behind Messi. Ten goals, but now they are catching up in one breath.
For such an opponent, apart from admiration, what else can they say?
Do you want to suspect Yang Yang of taking drugs like the unreliable Pique?
Guardiola also looked deeply at the back of Messi's departure, and he didn't say a word from beginning to end.
He is also worthless for Messi, but he has to admit that Yang Yang is indeed stronger.
The real strong meets the strong, and Yang Yang is like this this season. After missing 11 rounds and falling behind by nearly 20 goals, Yang Yang withstood the pressure and reversed Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
So now, it's up to Messi himself to perform.
If Yang Yang was knocked down because of this, he would lose nothing to say.
…………
…………
Real Madrid beat Malaga, Yang Yang led the La Liga scorer list with 33 goals, which aroused extensive attention and heated discussions among the media and fans across Europe and even the world.
Everyone is convinced that under great pressure, Yang Yang finally broke out the peak performance of his career.
But in midweek, in the twenty-seventh round of La Liga, in Real Madrid's away game against Sporting Santander, Benitez hid Yang Yang.
The main reason is that Yang Yang has been fighting on multiple fronts in a row, and he has hardly stopped since the winter break. The medical team believes that he needs to rest properly to save for the next Champions League games.
In this round, Real Madrid defeated Sporting Santander three-to-one away. Yang Yang accompanied the team, but did not play.
Ibrahimovic scored a goal, Higuain scored twice, and performed very well. The Swedish center also missed a penalty, which made people feel a little funny.
Barcelona beat Zaragoza 1-0 at home this round, Guardiola's team also rotated, Sedou Keita scored the only goal in the 42nd minute.
The gap between the two teams is still seven points.

On the weekend, in the twenty-eighth round of La Liga, Real Madrid faced Hercules at home.
Yang Yang started the game, and in the 24th minute, David Silva shoved straight to the right side of the penalty area, Maicon inserted the upload at high speed, and Yang Yang calmly pushed and scored, 1-0.
After changing sides and fighting again in the second half, Di Maria passed the ball from the side. After Yang Yang got the ball, he cut into the penalty area from the left rib, and scored a goal from a low angle from a low angle and scored twice.
Later, Yang Yang was also substituted by Canales and began to stay for the second round of the Champions League round of 16 in midweek.
For Real Madrid, the Champions League is obviously more important.
Real Madrid finally won Hercules firmly 2-0.
But no one thought that in another game that was played a day later than Real Madrid, Barcelona was tragically equalized by Sevilla 1-1 on the road.
The whole game was carried out under the control of Barcelona, but until the 30th minute, Xavi made a diagonal pass from the right, Alves crossed, and Bojan scored an empty goal and opened the scoring for Barcelona.
But just after the start of the second half, Sevilla counterattacked. After Negredo got the ball on the right, he got rid of Abidal and passed back in front of the baseline. Navas followed up with a header and scored to equalize the score for Sevilla. .
Afterwards, no matter how hard Barcelona pursued, they were never able to break Sevilla's goal.
In the end, the two sides shook hands and made peace.
Messi played for 90 minutes and had a strong desire to score, but he was closely guarded by Sevilla, and he never found an effective scoring opportunity.
After the news spread, the entire Madrid was in an uproar.
Everyone was cheering Barcelona's loss, as it meant Real Madrid had further narrowed the points gap.
From the original seven points again shortened to five points.
By this moment, it was very clear to everyone that the final derby of the century of the season was going to be crucial.

Especially for Real Madrid, if you want to reverse, you must win Barcelona at home.
