The green devil

The Spaniard's opponent in the sixth round is Deportivo, currently ranked seventh.

Deportivo de La Coruña was once a powerful division in La Liga and even European football that cannot be ignored.

1999-2000赛季获得过1次西甲冠军，本世纪初，拉科曾连续5个赛季霸占联赛积分榜前3，并且打进过欧冠4强。

However, Deportivo is called Super Deportivo not because of this achievement, but because of the miracles they created.

In 1988, Rendoiro, who had just been elected as the president of the Deportivo Club, said, "We want to win the championship"; It's just a dream."

However, ten years later, the famous coach Irueta led Deportivo to triumph in La Liga, and finally beat Real Madrid and Barcelona with 69 points, winning the La Liga championship for the first time in history.

In 2002, Deportivo ruined Real Madrid's centenary celebrations in the Copa del Rey at the Bernabeu.

In 2001, Paris Saint-Germain was leading 55-3 in the 0th minute, then Pandiani's hat-trick brought Deporti back to life, and finally 4-3 created the earliest version of the Riazor miracle. .

2003-04赛季，欧冠1/4决赛在首回合1-4落败AC米兰的情况下，次回合拉科用神奇的4-0制造了里亚索奇迹，巅峰米兰就这样成为拉科历史性杀入欧冠四强的背景板。

In addition, Super Depor double-killed the Red Devils Manchester United in the Champions League in the 2001-02 season. Wenger's 49-game undefeated Arsenal also served as cannon fodder.

Rummenigge, chairman of Bayern's board of directors, once ridiculed Deportivo: "They should stay in the small fishing port of Galicia honestly", and then Deportivo completed a double kill against the South King.

However, the wind is always blown away by the rain and the wind.

Deportivo are now a relegation team.

Deportivo didn't escape until the final round last season, finishing 16th.

The Espanyol team also has a relationship with Deportivo. Deportivo's only championship was won after defeating the Espanyol.

However, this season, both Deportivo and Espanyol performed well in the league, one ranked sixth and the other ranked seventh.

The coaches of the two teams are also famous players on the team, and both took office last season.

It is worth mentioning that the head coach of the Espanyol, Sergio, is also a famous player in Deportivo and has played in Deportivo for 8 years.

Deportivo coach Victor Sanchez is younger, he is only 39 years old, and he is very handsome. He can be said to be the most handsome coach in La Liga.

Deportivo coach Victor Sanchez said before the game that the Espanyol team has improved a lot this season. They have two talented players, Zhao Yang and Asensio, while Deportivo has no stars, the core of the team, and the goalkeeper. Fabrizio has another knee injury.This game will be difficult to play, because at the critical moment, the stars can decide the outcome of the game.

Naturally, Sergio would not take the opponent's compliments seriously. He said that Deportivo is a great team, and they always have magical performances at the Riazor Stadium. Tough team, the Spaniard will be ready for a tough game.

The match between the Spaniard and Deportivo will be played at 9 pm on September 27.

This day is the Mid-Autumn Festival in Huaguo.

In the morning, Zhao Yang and the team arrived at La Coruña, a small fishing port in the Galician Autonomous Region.

At the airport exit, Zhao Yang was warmly welcomed by Espanyol fans, most of whom were Chinese fans.

"Zhao Yang, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!"

"Zhao Yang, this is the mooncake I brought you."

"Zhao Yang, flowers for you. Be sure to score a goal."

……

Zhao Yang was flattered by the enthusiasm of the fans.While receiving the gifts from the fans, he waved and greeted the fans.

There were not only fans but also many reporters who came to pick them up.

They were sandwiched among the fans, constantly had to take pictures of Zhao Yang and ask Zhao Yang questions.

Zhao Yang wanted to answer the reporter's question. Seeing that his teammates and coaches were waiting for him, he waved his hand at the reporter apologetically, pushed away the crowd, and boarded the pick-up bus with his teammates and rushed to the hotel.

In the conference hall of the hotel, Sergio took Zhao Yang to attend the pre-match press conference with empathy.

At the press conference, Sergio expressed his views on the reporter's question.

Regarding the starting lineup that reporters and fans care about, Sergio said that it is not yet time to announce, but the personnel are basically determined.

When he came to the city where he played for eight years, Sergio relaxed a lot. He smiled and said to the reporter, I know you want to ask whether Zhao Yang will start, but I can tell you that Zhao Yang will start tonight.

Sergio also talked about the fact that he used to play for Deportivo. He said that this is just an ordinary league and it will not be different because he used to play for Deportivo.

Sergio also regards Deportivo as his relegation opponent. He said that the task of the Spaniard this season is to relegation first, and only by getting relegation points can he expect more.And Deportivo is the Spaniard's relegation opponent. Playing Deportivo is equivalent to a 6-point game, and the Spaniard will definitely attach great importance to it.

In terms of style of play, Sergio said that Deportivo is a team that is good at attacking, and the Espanyol must do a good job of defending to win the final victory.

It was as simple as asking the head coach Sergio a few questions, and then the reporter couldn't wait to ask Zhao Yang.

A Spanish reporter asked: After playing three La Liga games, what do you think is the difference between La Liga and La Liga? "

Zhao Yang replied: "The difference is that La Liga's technical and tactical level is very high, the pace is fast, and the players' personal abilities are very strong."

The Spanish reporter asked again: "Is there any similarity?

Zhao Yang smiled and said: "The same thing is that I can score goals."

The reporters all laughed.

A reporter from Huaguo asked: "You have scored 5 goals now, does this give you greater confidence in your foothold in La Liga?"

Zhao Yang said: "Yes. I hope I can score goals every game. My confidence is over the top now."

The Huaguo reporter asked again: "How many goals do you think you can score this season?"

Zhao Yang said: "Originally my goal was to score 5 goals. Now that the task has been completed, I hope to score 15 goals."

"Aspen" reporter asked: "Which position do you like most on the field?"

Zhao Yang thought for a while and said, "Front midfielder, this position is more flexible, but it's okay to play other positions."

The Huaguo reporter then asked: "So many fans like you and want to watch your game, do you feel any pressure?"

Zhao Yangdao: "Both the media and the fans have high expectations for me, because there will be no Chinese fans joining the five major leagues for a long time, so there will definitely be pressure. But I will try my best to turn the pressure into motivation and not let the fans down."

Regarding whether he will score a goal in this game, Zhao Yang said: "It doesn't matter. Compared with me scoring and the team losing, I would rather not score and the team win. Of course, I like my scoring the most." The ball, the team won."

Sergio saw the reporter asking non-stop, without any intention of stopping, so he ended the press conference under the pretext that Zhao Yang needed to rest.
