i want to be king

Chapter 243 You can't catch up with me!
"I am back!"

After the game against Albacete, Su Dong said confidently when he was interviewed by the media.

He wants to use this simple sentence to declare war on Ronaldo!

More importantly, he feels that he should carry the burden of the team's offense, which is what coach Benitez wants him to do.

With the continuous scoring this season, Su Dong's self-confidence has also been greatly improved. He feels that he is on an unprecedented road of rapid progress, and his self-confidence is also rising with his strength and performance.

Whether it's himself, his teammates, or the team, he needs to take on more responsibilities.

If it is said that there was no such feeling before, during the two weeks when Su Dong was absent, everyone in Valencia has clearly felt the importance of Su Dong, and even Mista himself admitted this.

This simple sentence is also telling Valencia fans that he is back and Valencia's goals are back!

However, unfortunately, the midfielder Aimar was injured again.

He felt muscle discomfort after the game and found out during the inspection that he had a tendon strain and was out for at least two weeks.

There is no problem with the ability of Argentina's midfielder, but the body is too glass.

And Vicente, he is also often injured.

But the return of Su Dong still made Valencia become full of fighting spirit.

…………

…………

A week later, in the No.20 second round of La Liga, Valencia challenged Malaga as a guest at the Rose Garden Stadium.

Only 4 minutes into the game, after Su Dong pulled the ball to the right, he suddenly started, broke through the bottom line and made a cross.

Mista in the middle overwhelmed Malaga defender Sanz with a header and opened the scoring for Valencia.

One to zero!

Ten minutes later, it was still an attack from the right. Right defender Garrido rushed to the corner with the ball and then suddenly knocked back. Su Dong stopped the ball in the penalty area, observed it, and directly shot a volley.

The ball went into Malaga's goal again, two to zero!

Afterwards, Valencia basically controlled the scene steadily until the No. 40 minute of the game, when Argentine defender Pellegrino suddenly fainted in his own half.

It was an accident without warning, no one was even around, and everyone was terrified.

The team doctor quickly carried Pellegrino out on a stretcher and sent him directly to the hospital for examination.

Benitez replaced Pellegrino with Marchena.

During the intermission, news came from the hospital that Pellegrino was not in danger of life and was undergoing a more comprehensive physical examination, which also made Valencia feel relieved.

After changing sides to fight again in the second half, Marchena took advantage of a corner kick and made another victory for Valencia, [-]-[-].

No.70 In the second minute, Albelda pierced Malaga's goal again outside the penalty area, four to zero.

Then in the final stage, Salva scored a goal for Malaga to save face, but still lost at home.

Valencia beat Malaga [-]-[-] away, taking all three points.

……

After the game, the entire Spanish football world was discussing Pellegrino's injury and Valencia's victory.

The Argentine quickly got the test results. The doctor diagnosed that there was no problem, whether it was physical or psychological, but they couldn't give an answer as to why they fainted. They just suggested not to participate in the competition for the time being.

Valencia's victory made the fans excited, and at the same time allowed the media to find a hot spot for speculation again.

Both Vicente and Aimar were absent, but Valencia's offensive was not weakened at all. All media reporters focused on Su Dong, thinking that it was Su Dong's playing that helped Valencia create a big victory.

"Many people say that Valencia's offense this season relies on the iron triangle, but we have all seen that when Su Dong was absent, the partnership of Vicente and Aimar could not solve the team's scoring problem at all, and when Aimar was fighting alone, Valencia was in a difficult situation."

"But now, when both Vicente and Aimar are absent, Su Dong used one pass and one shot to lead Valencia to a [-]-[-] away victory over Malaga. This is the best proof in itself!"

However, the media's attention was quickly attracted by Real Madrid and Barcelona.

The Galacticos challenged Valladolid in this round. After falling behind by two goals in the first half, Ronaldo scored twice. Coupled with Figo's goal, Real Madrid finally reversed Valladolid [-]-[-] in the away game.

For this game, the evaluation of the media and fans are two extremes.

On the one hand, they think that Real Madrid's offense is really strong, but on the other hand, they all think that Real Madrid's defense is really too fragile.

On the other hand, Real Madrid's mortal enemy, Barcelona beat Albacete [-]-[-] at the Nou Camp after beating Zaragoza [-]-[-] in the previous round.

Xavi, Saviola, Quaresma, new aid Davies and Luis Enrique have scored successively. Among them, this is the first game Davies played for Barcelona, ​​and his performance is quite eye-catching.

This makes people believe that Rijkaard's team is finally getting better.

In this round, Ronaldo, who scored twice and helped the team reverse Valladolid, called Su Dong immediately after the game to tell him the "good news" and said proudly that he had found the scoring state.

"I have eighteen goals now!" Ronaldo said with a shy smile on the phone.

"You'd better run faster, otherwise, by the time we get to the Bernabéu, we'll be even!"

In the No.20 four rounds of La Liga, Valencia will challenge Real Madrid away and then host Barcelona at home.

It can be said that these two games are very important and very difficult.

Before challenging the Western Super League duo, Valencia still has a stumbling block, and that is Atletico Madrid.

"Don't worry, you can't catch up with me!" Su Dong replied lightly.

Cut, isn't it just a brace?
Shout out like this!
Who hasn't scored twice?

Have you all forgotten, who was the one who was furious some time ago?

However, Valencia's upcoming schedule is indeed under great pressure.

Atletico Madrid is currently ranked fourth in La Liga. There is no need to say more about their strength, but the most terrible thing is injuries.

Aimar is injured, Jorge Lopez is injured, Rufete is also injured, and Pellegrino who suddenly fainted, Valencia is now full of wounded soldiers, and midfielder Mohamed Sissoko is transferred to participate in the Africa Cup of Nations.

The only good news is that Vicente should be able to catch up with the game against Atletico Madrid.

Valencia is full of wounded soldiers and short of manpower, and Atletico Madrid is also not much better.

So far in the season, which team has few injuries?
But Atlético Madrid was more unlucky, their top scorer Torres was injured.

Torres is as important to Atletico Madrid as Su Dong is to Valencia, and his absence has a great impact on Atletico Madrid.

After confirming the news that Torres will miss the Mestagna game, Benitez temporarily adjusted the team's tactical play, and once again resorted to the four-four-two double-forward tactic.

The head coach of the Bat Corps has a very clear attitude. Since there is no need to be wary of Torres, then Valencia will use the advantage of the home court to defeat the opponent in one fell swoop and take all three points!
…………

…………

On the evening of February [-]th, Mestagna Stadium.

In the No.20 three rounds of La Liga, Valencia sits at home against Atletico Madrid.

Benitez is a very pragmatic head coach. He is very aware of the weight of his team and knows what kind of football to play under what circumstances.

Without Aimar, he adopted a double striker combination to liberate Sudong; Rufete was injured, and Angulo became the team's emergency repairman on the right; as for the offense on the left, Vicente started directly after recovering from injury.

In the absence of Aimar, Valencia gave up the previous short pass in the frontcourt, but adopted more concise and longer passes, especially crosses from the wing.

After all, there are two centers, Su Dong and Mista, in the middle.

Atletico Madrid coach Manzano is also aware of his team's problems. Without Torres, he adopted a [-] formation, with the veteran Simeone in the back midfielder. In front of him, Jorge and Ibagaza partnered in the middle, and Nicoladis was on the front line.

But the idea is beautiful, the reality is cruel.

At the Mestagna Stadium, Valencia played waves of offense from the very beginning.

Vicente was very active on the left. As a single midfielder, Simeone had to take care of both the center and the side. It was difficult to do so. Jorge and Ibagaza were both passers and did not protect the defense very much.

So Su Dong, Vicente and Baraja got connected, frequently planned offensives, and suppressed Atletico Madrid in the midfield, making it difficult for the Sheets to organize an effective offensive and forced to shrink their defense.

In the half an hour after the opening, Atletico Madrid didn't even take a shot, which shows how embarrassing the scene is.

Valencia's side frequently created threats, scoring into the hinterland again and again, only a little short of scoring.

And the continuous attack on the wing, especially after Su Dong pulled Simeone, Vicente frequently got one-on-one opportunities, allowing Valencia to get three corner kicks.

Unfortunately, the three corner kicks failed to create a goal.

In the 301st minute, Su Dong retreated to receive the ball again. After successfully attracting Simeone's attention, he distributed the ball to the left again. After getting the ball from the side, Vicente formed a one-on-one. Facing the defender Gaspar Galvez, Vicente was bold and bold, and once again took advantage of his speed to force a breakthrough with the ball.

This time, Vicente almost rushed over again. In the end, center back Mathias Legui rushed over at the first time and blocked the ball out of the baseline.

Another corner kick!
Vicente volunteered to run out of the baseline, picked up the football with one kick, quickly ran to the corner, set the ball up, and immediately retreated to run up.

Beep!

The referee whistled to indicate that he could not take the penalty yet.

The tall players of the two teams all gathered in the penalty area, and the two central defenders Marchena and Ayala of Valencia both ran over.

Among all people, Su Dong, who is 1.9 meters [-] in height, stands out from the crowd, and is naturally the focus of Atletico Madrid's defensive players.

With a height of 1.9 meters, the 22-year-old Argentine defender Mathias Legui stood in front of Sudong.
