Chapter 124 Warren Derby
Bol, transliterated into Chinese is Valencia Football Club. Because of the transliteration, many fans including the media call them Valencia Club.
Since the city is called Valencia more times, this is also a team named after the city.
Many Chinese fans call them the "Bat Army", which is a nice name; at least it is much better than Atletico Madrid's "Sheet Army"!
Valencia is also a Spanish football club with a glorious history. Its status in the entire Spain is second only to the two giants Real Madrid and Barcelona.
Since entering the 21st century, Valencia's performance has remained stable. In the past ten years, they have won two Spanish League titles and reached the Champions League final once.
Valencia doesn't seem to be as strong as it was a few years ago, but it is still a team that any team, including the wealthy, will have a headache when they meet.
~~~~~~
The time was approaching, and the players of the Villarreal team finally set off. It wouldn't take long to reach Valencia from the small city of Villarreal.
Valencia's home stadium is called the Mestalla Stadium, which is a very old stadium. Valencia once thought about building a larger and more modern stadium, but in the end due to economic problems, this plan was shelved.
But the Mestalla Stadium is fully capable of hosting various events and continuing its mission of contributing to football.
The "Valencia Region Derby" is indeed a more chewy game.
Before the game, many media have arrived at the Mestalla Stadium, waiting for the Villarreal team to arrive for training, and then there will be a pre-match press conference.
There have been seventeen rounds of competition so far. Valencia has nine wins, four draws and four losses, ranking third in the La Liga standings with 31 points.
After Juan Carlos Garrido took over, Villarreal has three wins and two draws in the five league games. At this time, it has reached the tenth place in the standings, with six wins, five draws and six losses, with 23 points.
The trend is obvious.
A Valencia derby between the 'Yellow Submarine' and the 'Bat Legion' is about to take place.
Valencia coach Emery did not think this was a so-called Valencia regional derby before the game. He thought it was just an ordinary La Liga match. Like other La Liga matches, Valencia would use
It is not an easy game to face the strongest lineup.
Juan Carlos Garrido also seemed relaxed when answering reporters' questions: "What? We haven't lost a game since I took office? This is of course good news. I hope we can continue like this. We have been in
Withdrew from Camp Nou and of course I hope to get good results from Mestalla!"
Regarding Villa's recent hot state, Juan Carlos Garrido also praised: "Yes, he scored a hat trick in the last round, and now he is second only to Messi on the scorer list. He is
A great shooter, we will let him experience our tight defense!"
After several rounds of evolution, the shooting rankings have undergone tremendous changes. Higuain's top position has been given up, Messi has occupied the top position, and Higuain, who is in second place, was actually replaced by Villa.
Passed by a hat-trick and could only settle for third place.
Of course, the gap between the top few is not big, and any one of them may surpass his opponent at any time.
Maybe, all it takes is a hat trick.
Of course, it is almost impossible for Sun Yao to surpass the previous ones this season. However, Sun Yao still likes the feeling of having his anus exploded. He wants to see whose asshole he can finally explode!
~~~~~~~~~
The attendance at the Mestalla Stadium is also very high, with a large number of fans. This team, which has been in La Liga for many years, will once again have a pivotal game at this stadium.
The starting lineups of both sides have been announced at this time.
The Valencia team set up an extremely sharp formation. At the center position, goalkeeper Cesar Sanchez.
The right back is Portuguese strongman Miguel, and the double central defender is David Navarro partnering Maduro.
The left back chose Jordi Alba, a very talented wide player who has returned to Valencia's first team on loan at the end of this season.
The midfielder uses Banega and Marchena to match each other. Both of them are strong players and extremely capable players.
The two sides are Joaquin and David Silva~!
For the center position, Emery chose the tall Serbian star Nikola Rikic, a high center forward who is 2.02 meters tall.
In fact, Rikic's life in Valencia was not satisfactory. He is also actively contacting his old club Racing Santander, hoping to return to his old club on loan.
Before the end of the winter transfer period, I am afraid this will be one of the few opportunities for Rikic to play for Valencia.
Behind Rikic is the captain and number one star of the Valencia team, David Villa!
On Valencia's bench, many elite players such as supernova Mata, Albelda, Vicente, Pablo Hernandez and others are also gearing up.
Villarreal's main lineup is relatively stable. This time the defense has been slightly adjusted. Gonzalo was placed on the bench by Juan Carlos Garrido, who partnered Godin as a central defender.
Kiko, the beloved general in the B team!
The other positions are the same as when playing against Barcelona away from home!
Sun Yao naturally stays on the left wing. On this wing, Sun Yao and Capdevila will face the combination of Miguel and David Silva. Both combinations have
An international member of the Spanish national team, and he is the main player.
This is enough to attract a certain amount of attention. Coupled with Sun Yao, a supernova who has been in hot form recently, the confrontation on this wing is definitely exciting.
In the player tunnel, the players from both sides were so familiar that they couldn't be more familiar with each other, because the town where the Villarreal team is located is right next to Valencia, and members of the two teams can even be in contact during normal hours.
For example, Villa, Silva and Senna, Cazorla and Capdevila were all the main players in Spain's victory in the European Cup in 2008.
Only two years later, Senna and Cazorla no longer met the standards to enter the national team.
The competition for positions in the Spanish national team is too fierce, and there are almost one or two stars at the level of wealthy players in every position.
Even in certain positions, there are super wealthy stars.
In the passage of the locker room, Sun Yao was surprised by the big man of Rikic. He pointed at Rikic and whispered to Cazorla, who was only about 1.6 meters tall: "Look, you are a skinny boy, you are not as big as him."
Waist high!”
Cazorla glanced at Sun Yao with disdain: "You are only ten centimeters taller than me, don't show off to me!"
"Hey, seriously, this guy is so tall, he must be very strong. I need to remind Kiko and the others to be more careful!" Sun Yao asked.
"This is Mr. Juan Carlos Garrido's business. You don't need to worry about it. Compared to Rikic, the person behind him is more terrifying!" Cazorla waved his hand.
"The one with the mustache peeking under his mouth? This look is quite unique!" Sun Yao joked.
Cazorla smiled: "It's indeed a unique look. Don't tell me you don't know Villa!"
Sun Yao also stuck out his tongue: "Of course I know him, I have admired his name for a long time!"
In fact, Sun Yao knows a lot about famous European stars. After all, even though he was still in school, he had watched many football games. For example, Joaquín and Villa of Valencia were the players he was most familiar with.
As the Mestalla stadium roared with roars like a tsunami, the players from the two teams slowly entered the stadium.
First express your friendship, shake hands, take a family photo, and get ready to start the game.
The Valencia region’s derby is about to take place!
Chapter completed!
