As the second half of the season begins, the Copa del Rey competition also officially kicks off.
Previously, the top 32 players scored 12-1 in the first game, and Ye Chen took a rest in the second game.
Now that it's the round of 16, Emery means to continue to rest him.
After all, Granada is not a great team, and there is still a league game to play on the 11th.
Naturally, the priority is to ensure the league.
For the current Sevilla team, after the start of the second half of the season, the most important thing is La Liga, followed by the Champions League, and finally the Copa del Rey.
After all, the gold content of the King's Cup is very low.
In the case of the Champions League, each round of promotion will bring generous bonuses and huge peripheral benefits.
Let's put it this way, the fact that Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester United have such a high reputation around the world is inseparable from their early performance in the Champions League.
There are now eight games in the entire month of January, which averages out to less than one game in four days.
And among these eight games, there are four away games——
Tired of traveling and various influences.
By the way, Ye Chen will also attend the Ballon d'Or awards ceremony on January 13, and Emery, as the team's coach, will also attend the Champions League draw ceremony.
But Qiaqia has another King's Cup to play on January 15th——
Time is tight and the task is heavy.
The first round of the top 16 is an away game.
And this game also gave Mbappe, Kimmich, Dias and Odegaard the opportunity to start.
This is also the first time Odegaard and Kimmich have started for Sevilla.
When the fans saw this first start, their hearts went cold.
With so many young players, can they really hold on?
At the beginning of the game, they were still in a mess because of their tacit understanding.
But in today's away game, Emery directly deployed a double defensive midfielder formation.
Mbia and Rodri sit in the midfield, intercepting and sweeping the ball.
Even though Rodri is very young, he does have the demeanor of a general.
Especially that face, which was expressionless no matter what the situation, and his eyes contained a strong murderous aura.
The opening is seventeen minutes old.
Martial provided support in the middle and passed the ball to Wu Lei, who was running in at high speed from the right.
Wu Lei stepped in at high speed and hit the far corner, helping the team lead 1-0!
This made the domestic fans who stayed up late to watch the game extremely excited.
In Seville, Ye Chen was scoring goals like crazy, and Wang Chu was also making assists like crazy.
Only Wu Lei, just like Ye Chen's Six Meridians Divine Sword, sometimes works well and sometimes fails.
But today Wu Lei was surprisingly decisive——
This ball has a bit of Ye Chen’s shadow!
Sure enough, if you stay with good people for a long time, you will become good.
If Wu Lei knew that the fans looked at him this way, he would cry to death - but there is actually nothing wrong with saying that.
You must know that Ye Chen will accompany him for extra practice every time, and he will also rope in the team's third goalkeeper, Bunu.
Bounou is a Moroccan national, a man who performed well in the World Cup in Qatar and played bravely in the Europa League final against Roma, saving three penalty kicks.
He was brought to Madrid by Atletico Madrid B team in the summer window of 2012 for a transfer fee of 360,000 euros.
But he has been on loan for the past few years, leaving him with no hope.
So in the last transfer window, Sevilla brought him to Sevilla for a transfer fee of 1 million euros.
It happened that the team's Rico was injured, so he was able to take over smoothly.
Buanu also started the game on behalf of the team in this game and performed very steadily.
He may not be the kind of player who often makes great saves, but he has a nice position in front of the goal and his long passes are decent.
Of course, this is also related to Ye Chen's request.
Ye Chen briefly told him about the future development direction of goalkeepers, and it can be said that he must know how to play the ball.
Like Manchester United's De Gea, he is great at saving, right? His goal-line skills are even the best in the world.
But just because of his poor ball-playing skills, Spain did not even give him the third goalkeeper position!
Manchester United also doesn’t want to renew his contract——
There is no way, the ball is always handed over to the opponent at critical moments, who can withstand this!
Ball shooting skills will be an essential skill for top goalkeepers in the future!
With the first one, the second goal came as expected.
Center back Dias went directly to the opponent's half, but the opponent did not step forward to intercept.
The ball was passed to Martial in the frontcourt.
Martial's first stop was too big and he could only dribble the ball towards the baseline.
But he saw Mbappe's movement out of the corner of his eye and quickly passed the ball over.
Mbappe didn't stop the ball and just took a shot!
The football drew a wonderful arc in the air and flew to the far corner.
The goalkeeper is helpless in front of the goal!
"Whoa!"
There was a violent friction between the football and the net, and the team led 2-0 away from home.
On the bench, Wang Chu hugged Ye Chen's arm, "Brother Chen, you taught this little guy how to rub and ejaculate, right? You've learned the essence!"
"It's not bad." Ye Chen said calmly, "Let me ask you a question, who do you think will be more powerful in the future, Martial or Mbappe?"
"Of course it's Martial. Just taking the ball with his back is enough to defeat Mbappe!"
Ye Chen smiled and shook his head, "No, no! I'm telling you, Mbappe can beat Martial by a few blocks in the future!"
"Ah?" Wang Chu looked in disbelief, "But I think Martial is better than Mbappe in both physical condition and technique."
"That's now. In two years' time, Martial won't even be able to catch up with Mbappe!"
"Do you think so highly of Mbappe?"
Ye Chen chuckled, "You will know if you think back to their training attitude. Didn't the former national football coach Mr. Milu say that attitude determines everything!"
Martial comes across as very lazy.
But Mbappe is very serious and focused.
Only after watching their training did Ye Chen deeply understand one sentence - no one can succeed casually.
In his previous life, Mbappe was turned into a "monster" by many media, after all, it was for the sake of traffic.
But after contacting him, I feel that Mbappe is still okay.
Occasionally there are some funny jokes.
"If you didn't say it, I would have almost forgotten this sentence -" Wang Chu couldn't help but laugh, "But this sentence is wrong in the football industry. I think talent determines everything."
"Let's complement each other."
Talent and hard work are indispensable.
Otherwise, it will become an injury to Zhongyong——
Of course, Wang Chu can achieve what he has today because his talent is not bad.
This has been evident since his youth training in Metz. You must know that he won the best player of the tournament awarded by the European Football Confederation Technical Committee!
At that time, those competing with Wang Chu were a group of foreign children.
The game quickly got into Sevilla's rhythm.
One good thing about young players is that they are very hardworking and have a strong desire to win.
I want to express myself whenever I have the chance.
But the disadvantage is also very obvious, that is, it is easy to get fooled.
When the game reached the 903rd minute, forward Bangura, who came on as a substitute, scored a face-saving goal!
In the end, the two sides battled to a score of 1 to 2, with the away team Sevilla trailing behind.
Emery also praised the performance of his players in the locker room, and all the young players were filled with bright smiles——
Although it is a King's Cup game that no one cares about, it is enough for them to have the opportunity to train themselves!
Ye Chen sat on the bench the entire time and did not play a single minute.
But when they returned home to Seville from the away game, Lina, wearing a long dress, was waiting for his return at home early in the morning.
And brought him great news——
