Chapter 332 of the "China Derby" condition for the "Penal!! Wu Lei created a penalty for Espanyol!!"

He Ping shouted excitedly.

This weekend is a couple of good things.

Gao Zheng scored twice in Atletico Madrid against Real Betis, helping the team defeat his opponent 5-1. Then Real Madrid defeated Barcelona 2-1 away, helping Atletico Madrid return to the top of the standings.

Now Wu Lei has performed well in the league, creating an assist for the team.

The only shame is that the penalty kicks in La Liga are not counted as assists, otherwise Wu Lei would have only two assists now.

Unfortunately, creating this penalty cannot be reflected in his technical statistics...

Although the Málaga players protested to the referee, believing that Wu Lei was a fake fall, judging from the slow-motion replay, the Málaga players did indeed play Wu Lei, so it is reasonable and in line with the rules.

Sure enough, the protests of the Malaga players were invalid, and the referee still unswervingly gave Espanyol a penalty.

Asensio came to take the penalty and calmly shot the ball into Malaga's goal, helping Espanyol take the lead again away.

In the 73rd minute, Wu Lei was indeed replaced by head coach Galka in advance.

But at this time he was no longer regretful. He had a smile on his face when he was about to end. Galka also took the initiative to shake hands with him, hug him, and finally patted him on the head before sending him back to the bench, which fully demonstrated his love for Wu Lei.

You should know that when Wu Lei first joined the team, Galka thought that Wu Lei was just the water dispenser guard that the Chinese boss forced him to, just to allow Espanyol to expand its influence in the distant China.

But now he probably realized that Wu Lei did not come to his team based on a commercial sponsorship contract. As a player second only to Gao Zheng in China, he has the strength to gain a foothold in Espanyol.

※※※

In the end, with the penalty kick created by Wu Lei, Espanyol defeated Malaga 2:1 away, and after defeating Athletic Bilbao 2:1 in the last game, he won two consecutive victories.

After winning three points in this game, their league points increased to 39 points, surpassing La Coruna, Eibar, Real Sociedad and Malaga in the league standings, and went straight to eighth from the original twelfth place, just like taking the Rockets.

There is only one person away from the European War Zone, nine points away.

But with seven rounds left in the league, there is not completely hopeless.

This result made Espanyol fans cheer and sing praises for Wu Lei.

Because it was the penalty Wu Lei created for the team in the second half that helped Espanyol defeat Malaga away.

After the game, video clips of Espanyol fans cheering for Wu Lei were leaked on the Internet. At a glance, you can tell that the fans were filming on their own mobile phones in the stands. The picture quality was not clear and they were shaking very well, but the victory was in reality.

This is the truest emotion of Espanyol fans towards Wu Lei.

When Wu Lei went abroad, some people sarcastically believed that Espanyol fans would look down on Wu Lei who only relied on Chinese bosses, and these videos slapped those who could not stand up in the face.

In this world, strength is the best way to win respect.

Wu Lei has won the respect and love of Espanyol fans with his actual performance, so those "kneeling tribes" don't have to worry about it.

Wu Lei performed so well and won the love of Espanyol fans, but this is not what Chinese fans care about the most.

So although videos of Espanyol fans singing praises and cheering for Wu Lei appeared on the domestic Internet, their popularity is far less than the popularity of another topic.

That is the "La Liga China Derby".

This is a hot topic on Weibo that has appeared after the Spanish vs. Malaga.

The topic described this topic is not the "derby" between Gao Zheng and Espanyol's new Chinese boss Mr. Chen. This time it is the real meaning of the derby, which expresses the direct dialogue between two Chinese players in the La Liga.

In the 32nd round of the La Liga, the next round of the league, Atletico Madrid challenged Espanyol away!

Because of Wu Lei's outstanding performance in the match against Malaga, he is likely to get a chance to play in the next game.

But it is still uncertain whether Gao Zheng can appear in this game.

Because before Atletico Madrid is visiting Barcelona, ​​they have to visit Barcelona. The Champions League quarter-finals will start next Tuesday. Atletico Madrid will challenge Barcelona away in the first leg.

It is entirely possible that Simeone will give Gao Zheng a rest in order to better prepare for the game next Wednesday to return to the home court with Barcelona.

So this topic is not about discussing the content of Atletico Madrid and Espanyol, but about whether Gao Zheng can play in the match against Espanyol.

And the attitude of Espanyol fans towards Wu Lei, Chinese fans are more concerned about whether the two can be directed towards the next round of the league and stage a real "China derby".

Some professional journalists and sports V analysts believe that in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals before this, there was a situation that might make Simeone hide Gao Zheng.

That is, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona play hard to distinguish in the first round. No matter who wins or loses, the final score difference is very small, and the suspense of advancement still exists.

Then Simeone is likely to let Gao Zheng take the league off and prepare for the game back to home.

In addition, another situation can greatly increase Gao Zheng's chance of playing in the league, that is, after the quarter-finals of the first leg, the suspense of advancing to the semi-finals disappeared. Whether Atletico Madrid lost to Barcelona in a big away game or defeated Barcelona with a big score, this situation can happen.

But considering the actual situation, the probability of losing to Barcelona with a large away score is higher...

So if Chinese fans hope that Gao Zheng and Wu Lei can have a "China derby" in La Liga, it means that Atletico Madrid is likely to be eliminated by Barcelona in the Champions League.

And this is something Chinese fans don't want to see.

Someone has already said on Weibo that as long as Wu Lei stands firmly with Espanyol this season, they will definitely meet in La Liga next season.

So if you can't meet this time, you can't meet it. The Champions League quarterfinals between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona are more important.

In order for Gao Zheng to reach the Champions League semi-finals for the first time in his career, it would be better if the Chinese derby didn't play, but it wouldn't be gone in the future anyway...

Although many Chinese fans feel that it would be a bit regretful to not see the encounter between Gao Zheng and Wu Lei, they can still tolerate this regret for Gao Zheng's good.
