The green devil

Valencia is the La Liga team that invested the most in summer transfers.

Valencia fired coach Nuno.

Valencia hired Manchester United legend Gary Neville as coach.

However, after Neville took office, Valencia has won 12 rounds and is only one step away from the relegation zone.

The Spaniard is Neville's 13th opponent.

13, this number is an unlucky number in the West.

Many fans said that if the game is not won, Neville may be dismissed directly.

Although this statement is a rumor, it is highly credible.

Even the most tolerant chairman can't tolerate a head coach who has won 13 games.

A dead skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

Valencia is down and out now, but it used to be a traditional powerhouse in La Liga, and its boss is also Chinese.

Huazi Derby, this is also a very gimmick game, the number of viewers is no less than that of the Spaniard vs. Real Madrid.

Although the rankings of the Spaniard and Valencia are now reversed, the Spaniard dare not underestimate this bat army.

They have been pushed to a desperate situation, if they lose again, the coach will dismiss get out of class; if they lose again, the team will be relegated.

At this time, this kind of team will often explode with huge combat effectiveness.

The Spaniard is now only 5 points ahead of No.2 Villarreal, and the situation is not good.

In this game, the Spaniard must win.

At 09:30 p.m. local time in Spain, the Spaniard and Valencia made their best efforts, and a fierce battle took place at the Mestalla Stadium.

The Spaniards played away, but their formation was not conservative at all.

Moreno, Caicedo, and Zhao Yang are three arrows ahead.

Asensio dispatched in the middle, Diop dragged his back to defend, and Cheryshev and Perez attacked from both wings.

This kind of configuration is only used when facing teams at the bottom of the standings.

In the hearts of the Spaniards, the invincible Bat Corps no longer exists when they counterattacked in the past, and their opponent is just a relegation team.

The individual strength of Valencia's players is stronger than that of the Spaniards, and the depth of the bench is stronger than that of the Spaniards. Their biggest problem is that they have not adjusted well, and the coach Neville is inexperienced.

Aiming at the weakness of the Valencias, the Spaniards took the initiative to attack Valencia.

Sergio played well, hoping to quickly defeat Valencia's confidence and morale.

According to the tactical research before the game, Valencia basically lost all the games that fell behind.

This is a team that doesn't have much cohesion and willpower.

The addition of Cheryshev has helped the Spaniard a lot.

With Cheryshev who can attack on the side, Zhao Yang can play forward wholeheartedly.

In the face of a strong enemy, Cheryshev can also be placed in front, and Zhao Yang assists Asensio in controlling the midfield.

A Cheryshev, let the Spaniards live.

Valencia was mentally prepared for the Spaniard's opening onslaught.

After all, the current Spaniard is fourth in the league, and he has the strength and courage to take the initiative to attack away.

However, it is not possible to prevent it with preparation.

In the 8th minute of the game, Asensio made an assault in the middle. After splitting the side, Perez crossed the middle. Caicedo missed in front of the goal. Zhao Yang followed up with a strong shot, and the ball missed the post slightly.

This shot opened the prelude to the Spaniard's attack.

Three minutes later, Asensio found Zhao Yang on the wing with a precise long pass.

Zhao Yang leaped high and stopped the ball with his chest.

Valencia's full-backs cling to Zhao Yang, waiting for him to steal after landing.

Zhao Yang didn't wait for the ball to land, flicked his outside instep, and passed the ball to the back of the central defender in the middle.

After nearly a season of running-in, the cooperation between Caicedo and Zhao Yang has become more and more tacit.

As soon as Zhao Yangqiu left his foot, Caicedo guessed Zhao Yang's intention, he quickly advanced and went straight to the penalty area.

Caicedo has speed and body. Valencia's central defender had no time to close the door and was forced into the penalty area by Caicedo.

The ball is almost to the person.

In desperation, Caesedo leaped high and poked the ball with his toes in the air.

Valencia goalkeeper Domenech saw Zhao Yang passing the ball and Caicedo went forward, so he attacked as fast as possible.

Caicedo's unconventional toe shot in the air made Domenech's attack a step slower.

Domenech couldn't touch the ball, so he could only use his body to block Caicedo's shooting line.

At such a short distance, how could Domenech's tall body have time to block it,

The ball flew right into the net from the armpit of Domenech who was pounced on.

1:0

In the 11th minute of the game, the Spaniard took the lead away.

After scoring the goal, Caicedo ran to the sidelines and slid and knelt towards the stands.

Caicedo's passion ignited the Spaniard's passion, the players rushed towards Caicedo crazily, and the fans of the visiting team in the stands shouted and applauded wildly.

Neville on the sidelines hugged his head in pain.

He worked hard for this ball, but he didn't expect that he still couldn't block the Spaniard's attack.

11 minutes, only resisted for 11 minutes!

Neville shook his head angrily. He was disappointed with the players on the field and despaired of his coaching career in the Bat Corps.

Espanyol coach Sergio is satisfied.

The progress of the game is in line with his plan.

According to this development, the Spaniard will soon be able to wait for Valencia to mess up and win.

After the celebration, the game started again.

The leading Spaniard is still on the offensive, wanting to score another goal to defeat the opponent's confidence.

The Valencians did not lose confidence. While resisting hard, they continued to try to counterattack.

Five minutes later, Valencia seemed to have stabilized the morale of the army, and even fought against the Spaniards.

10 minutes have passed, Valencia has not collapsed, and it is still quite organized.

Another 10 minutes passed, and Valencia still hadn't collapsed. They couldn't attack, and they still maintained the threat of counterattack.

Sergio frowned, "Valencia is very strong today! It seems that if you don't score the second goal, you won't be defeated."

Seeing that 35 minutes had passed, Valencia was not in a hurry, but the Spaniard, who led the attack, was in a hurry.

The more anxious, the more problems arise. Because the Spaniard is too impatient, the offense is not carefully organized, and he often shoots from long distances.

This is equivalent to giving the Valencians a lot of counterattack opportunities.

In the 41st minute, Valencia counterattacked, Cancelo got the ball and passed the ball on the right side of the penalty area, and Negredo shot from 11 yards.

Espanyol defender Rocco tried his best to block, and the ball deflected to the lower right corner of the goal after hitting Rocco's body.

The Spaniard goalkeeper Lopez couldn't react in time and could only watch the ball fly into the net.

1:1

The Valencians were lucky enough to equalize the score.

After Valencia equalized the score, the Spaniards were even more anxious. They were eager to overtake the score again, but they gave Valencia another chance.

In the 44th minute, Valencia got another chance to counterattack. Fegulli made a pass from the right side of the penalty area, and full-back Barkley scored with a header from the edge of the penalty area.

2:1

Valencia scored two goals in just 5 minutes to overtake the score.
