Chapter 201: Fighting in the late month, the hope of winning the triple crown!

Due to the interference of Sarafina's group of close friends, Ricardo had no way to have an in-depth communication with Sara, whom he had not seen for a long time. Even the verbal dispute was superficial.

However, Ricardo also got to know the socialites around Sarafina one by one. Basically, they were either the granddaughter of a certain earl or one of the heirs of a certain multinational corporate family...Among them, the youngest one, Emma, ​​was the most special. She was a newly popular child star and did not belong to the traditional circle of socialites and wealthy women. But everyone liked her very much. First, because she was good-looking and very sweet and cute. Second, because the "Harry Potter" starring her was so popular, everyone was her fan.

Naturally, Ricardo is no exception, including the old Li Qi in his soul, who is also an old fan of Emma Watson. Although Emma, ​​who is only 17 years old at this time, has not grown up yet, has a childish face, and dresses mainly in school clothes, she has a unique youthfulness and purity.

And unlike other lecherous young ladies, under Sarafina's pretended angry gaze, in addition to the lewd kiss on the cheek to touch Ricardo's abdominal muscles and pectoral muscles, Emma Watson, who was at the age of falling in love for the first time, also shyly drew a circle on Ricardo's palm.

Ricardo, who had been abstinent for a few days and was itching to get his hands on it, was a little confused. He didn't know what it meant. Surrounded by so many beautiful ladies, he didn't dare to ask too much. He left behind many autographed gifts from the Sevilla Club that he had prepared in advance and hurried to the airport...

But not long after, the scumbag Li started chatting with the youngest girlfriend of the number one girlfriend through text messages. Of course, at the beginning, the scumbag Li was still very cautious and did not dare to reveal too much of his true nature. The questions and answers were very appropriate. He was neither cold and distant, nor too enthusiastic. After all, he didn't know whether Sarafina used her sister-in-law to set a trap...

However, Ricardo, who hurried back to Seville, did not have the time to think about it. Although he theoretically had a day off, he returned a day later than the team because of drunkenness, so he basically left this day off to Sarafina's girlfriends. When he returned home, there were only a few hours left, so he naturally dedicated it to the passionate Eva...

The next day, when he returned to the club for a relaxation training, Ricardo realized that he had not missed any celebration activities. After all, the team took off from Glasgow at nearly midnight, and had to stop in Madrid for a transfer. It was almost dawn when they arrived in Seville, and there was a crucial league match three days later. The team only had a small-scale interaction with the fans who came to pick them up at the airport, and before returning to the club to disband, they tentatively announced the championship rewards and the arrangements for the end-of-season celebrations, and then went home to rest.

Ricardo was also thankful that he was drunk by Maresca, otherwise he would have stayed up all night to catch the flight and would have stayed in Glasgow to get a good night's sleep! They said they couldn't let the fans who support the club see the trophy a second later... But will they give up the league championship trophy with 4 games left and the Copa del Rey trophy that will be competed for at the end of the month? What will the fans choose...

So we have to thank Hanhan Ma for this? That's impossible, absolutely impossible! It's better to study the remaining four La Liga games and the King's Cup finals.

La Liga has completed 34 rounds of matches so far. In the last round of the league, Barcelona was tied by Betis at home in the last minute and lost points. However, Real Madrid reversed the situation and defeated Espanyol at home, not only tying the league points with Barcelona, ​​but also returning to the top of the standings with the advantage in the head-to-head record.

At the same time, Sevilla is also closing the gap with the top of the table, with only less than one win difference, so Sevilla still has hope of winning the championship; and even Valencia, who has won three consecutive league games, still has a chance...

Therefore, the competition and performance in the last four rounds of the league will ultimately determine who will be the champion of this year's La Liga. It can be said that every game is a battle for the championship, because as long as you lose points, you may be directly suppressed by your title rivals and have no chance.

In the current standings, Real Madrid has the greatest advantage and holds the initiative. As long as they can win all the remaining games, Real Madrid will be able to secure the league title this season; however, Real Madrid's lead over third-placed Valencia is only three points, a difference of just one win.

However, in terms of schedule, with the draw with Betis, Barcelona, ​​which originally had the most advantage, has lost the upper hand. Four rounds ago, Real Madrid had to face strong rivals such as Valencia and Sevilla, while Barcelona basically faced opponents that were weaker than themselves. However, after four rounds, the points gap did not widen; instead, Real Madrid, with unprecedented morale, reversed the ranking by winning four games in a row, while Barcelona's morale fell to a low point after one draw and one loss in four rounds.

Barcelona's next opponents are Atletico Madrid, Getafe, Espanyol and Tarragona; Real Madrid's next opponents are Recreativo, Deportivo La Coruna, Zaragoza and Mallorca.

Sevilla's remaining opponents are Deportivo La Coruna, Mallorca, Villarreal and Zaragoza; Valencia's remaining opponents are Mallorca, Villarreal, Levante and Real Sociedad.

In terms of difficulty of the confrontation, the four teams are about the same, with two away games and two home games, and the opponents are of similar strength; if we have to rank them, it should be said that Sevilla has the most difficult game, while Real Madrid has the easiest.

In addition, after the two rounds of league games in May, before the national team match day one week later, Sevilla has a Copa del Rey final to play. It has the most intensive schedule among the four teams and naturally the most difficult one. After all, it has the opportunity to win the treble, and the most difficult UEFA Cup championship has also been won again.

However, the media all believe that the 35th round of the league may be the key to the four teams' fight for the championship.

Barcelona will play away against Atletico Madrid, which has never been defeated since Rijkaard took office. This time, it is away from home, and even if the strongest trident lineup can play, there is no guarantee of victory over Atletico Madrid, which just scored four goals in the last round and also needs points to secure a place in the UEFA Cup.

Real Madrid needs to challenge Villarreal away and it is expected to be a tough battle. After all, in the first cycle of the first half of the season, Real Madrid lost to this newly promoted team at home with 3 goals in a very ugly manner.

Sevilla was the most tired team after traveling thousands of miles to win the UEFA Cup in the middle of the week and had less than three days' rest before heading off to La Coruña. However, with the morale boost from having just won the championship, their strength and stamina should be able to be boosted to a certain extent.

Therefore, Valencia is the most favored team in this round. Although it is an away game, the opponent is Mallorca, which has no desire at this stage. However, Valencia has the fewest points among the four teams competing for the championship, so it has to look at the performance of the three teams in front of it anyway.

No matter what, the pressure is definitely on the leading Real Madrid, after all, the others are just followers.

2007年5月19日晚上20时，06/07赛季西班牙足球甲级联赛第34轮率先展开1场焦点战役，是由联赛排名第四的瓦伦西亚客场出击联赛排名第11的马洛卡。

瓦伦西亚在双方近14场联赛交锋中仅负1场，其余13场取得9胜4平；而在时间跨度更长的双方联赛历史交锋39场之间，瓦伦西亚也是25胜8平6负，占据绝对上风。

However, Valencia did not play well in this game. The main players of the Bats encountered the stubborn sniping of the home team. Although Mallorca's personnel team is definitely not as strong as the Bats on paper, the home team won because of its absolutely pragmatic defensive counterattack style, which was implemented very thoroughly.

Therefore, at the end of the season, low-key and pragmatic Mallorca became an opponent that no team wanted to face, even though Mallorca had already secured relegation seven rounds in advance; for a time, Valencia was also in a tough battle.

Until the last minute of regular time, Villa retreated to receive the ball and sent a straight pass, Jorge Lopez passed the ball diagonally to Joaquin who ran into the penalty area, and the latter calmly shot low into the far corner of the goal from 12 yards in front of the goal.

Valencia was lucky enough to break the deadlock in the 90th minute of the game and won four consecutive league victories with a score of 1-0. With one game ahead, the points were tied with Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Then on the next day, at 20:17 on the evening of the th, it was the turn of Sevilla, who was originally ranked third in the league, to play.

Sevilla had just played a UEFA Cup final in Glasgow three days ago in the middle of the week, so it can be said that it was a long journey.

同时，拉科鲁尼亚在西甲历史上31次主场迎战塞维利亚取得了21胜6平4负；塞维利亚上次做客取胜拉科还要追溯到1953年11月，此后拉科20个主场取得17胜3平，绝对是塞维利亚的苦主。

Therefore, when visiting Deportivo La Coruña this time, Juan Ramos has absolutely no chance of luck. It is time to give it a try!

But it is still difficult to cook without rice. Sevilla still has to rotate some players who are in poor physical condition, such as Li Qi who was drunk after the UEFA Cup final and Adriano who just returned from injury and was a little overdrawn in the last round...

So Sevilla's 4-4-2 starting lineup for this round is as follows:

Goalkeeper No. 1 Palop;

The left and right backs are No. 3 David and No. 4 Alves, and the double center backs are captain No. 2 Navarro and No. 20 Osio;

After the game, No. 25 Maresca won the trust of the head coach again with his sincere attitude and active training. He appeared in the starting left midfielder position. The double defensive midfielders were No. 18 Martí and No. 11 Renato. The right forward was Navas who made the decisive corner kick assist in the previous game.

The double centers are No. 10 Fabiano and No. 9 Korzakov;

Li Qi and Kanoute led Paulson, Duda, Escude and Adriano on the bench.

However, Sevilla, the defending UEFA Cup champion, was clearly in high spirits. They dominated the game right after the kick-off and continuously threatened the home team's goal.

In the 13th minute, Navas and Korzakov's sharp breakthroughs and shots earned Sevilla consecutive corner kicks. First, Osio received a corner kick from Renato on the right side and headed the ball, but it was saved by Deportivo goalkeeper Eott. In the subsequent corner kick melee, Navarro's close-range shot hit the side net again.

Sevilla missed another golden opportunity in the 21st minute. Maresca changed his previous game's problem of working alone and played a wonderful series of wall-to-wall cooperation with Marti on the left wing, and sent a selfless cross pass from the left side of the penalty area. Unfortunately, Korzakov's uninterrupted shot from 12 yards in front of the goal was bravely blocked by Eot again, who swept the ball out of the baseline in time before Fabiano's supplementary shot.

In the second half, Sevilla's stars once again squandered opportunities. In the 62nd minute of the game, Maresca once again played a pass-cut cooperation with David on the left and sent a precise cross from the bottom. Unfortunately, Fabiano, who was flanking in the middle, volleyed the ball into the air from 10 yards in front of the goal...

Juan Ramos on the sidelines shook his head, wondering if the players were too excited after winning the championship. There was nothing wrong with their condition, but they were too nervous and wanted to use too much force in the final shot. Just when Juan Ramos was about to change a group of calmer forwards to try, Deportivo La Coruna, who had been passive throughout the game, broke the deadlock in the 68th minute.

Kasmierski broke through Alves on the left and made a cross, and Botipo volleyed the ball into the goal from 12 yards on the right side of the penalty area; the latter gave Fabiano and Korzakov a good on-the-spot teaching, which is how a flanking shot in the penalty area should be done!

Juan Ramos didn't dare to hesitate after losing the ball. He made three substitutions in the 70th minute. Li Qi, Kanoute and Duda replaced Fabiano, Korzakov and David at the same time to strengthen the attack! After all, Sevilla couldn't afford to lose any more league games, and couldn't even afford a draw, as long as they wanted to win the league title.

After Li Qi came on the pitch, he was closer to Maresca and Duda in organizing attacks on the left wing, and Sevilla also passed the ball to the left more often.

In the 74th minute of the game, the Italian twin stars connected successfully and used a classic straight pass to penetrate the defense of Deportivo La Coruna. However, in the end, Li Qi's low cross to the middle was blocked by the defender's risky tackle and went out of the baseline.

Then Li Qi and Maresca quickly took a tactical corner kick and won Sevilla a free kick on the left side very close to the edge of the penalty area.

Duda, who came on as a substitute, volunteered to take the free kick from the left, allowing Li Qi, who scored a header in the final, to enter the penalty area to ambush and compete for the header, increasing the high point in the penalty area.

Then Duda's free kick from the left side really bypassed Kanoute in front and aimed at Li Qi in the middle! Of course, Laco's coaching staff also reviewed the UEFA Cup final, and naturally guarded against Li Qi, the new popular aerial bomber, and arranged two people to double-team Li Qi.

Li Qi naturally played along: You two are guarding me and interfering with my jump, right? I will also stop you and prevent you from jumping to clear the ball...

So Renato, who was lying in ambush beside Li Qi, took advantage of a big loophole, and six or seven offensive and defensive players in the front and middle actually missed the ball; Renato, with no one guarding him, headed the ball cleanly and steadily into the goal less than 7 yards in front of him!

In the 76th minute of the game, Duda assisted his Brazilian compatriot Renato with a header from a free kick from the left, and Sevilla equalized the score 1-1!

However, Sevilla, who brought the game back to the same starting line, was even more arrogant. After the game resumed, they were like a tiger descending from the mountain. They took back the ball in a flash and started a wave of attacks, not giving Laco any chance to breathe.

Finally, in the 84th minute, Sevilla once again broke through Deportivo's shaky defense.

This time, Li Qi pretended to continue to play small-scale passing and cutting with Maresca on the left wing to penetrate the defense. After attracting the attention of most of the La Coruna players, Li Qi played the classic trick of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west. In the crowd, he swung his legs on the spot and quickly rubbed the ball to the right rib of the defensive gap!

Navas unloaded the ball perfectly on the right side outside the penalty area, stopped and passed in one go, and directly entered the penalty area; then Navas made an inverted triangle pass to the middle of the penalty area from the edge of the small penalty area, and Kanoute calmly pushed the ball into the far corner of the goal from 12 yards.

The Mali striker scored his 20th goal of the season and helped Sevilla overtake the score in the final moments of the game!

The entire Sevilla team was ecstatic that they had won against La Coruna away from home for the first time in 54 years; however, some players could not control themselves and began to lose focus and become complacent, almost losing their game in the injury time of the game.

Fortunately, Li Qi came back in time in the 95th minute and cleared the ball on the goal line, which saved Sevilla's three points in this round. Sevilla won its fourth victory in the past five league games, temporarily surpassing Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​who have not yet played in this round, and won the two-hour top experience card!

However, right after the Sevilla match, it was Real Madrid and Barcelona's turn to make their final appearance...
