After leading 3:0, the game completely lost its suspense and ended immediately with the referee's whistle.
Wang Ai came on the field for five minutes, touched the ball once, passed two people, and tried to assist. Unfortunately, Sergio failed to live up to expectations and was eventually hit by Forlan.
In other words, Wang Ai's first La Liga game did not have any eye-catching statistics.
However, data does not equal performance.
The Spanish media published the next day all commented on Wang Ai's five-minute game, and basically gave it good reviews. Although he did not score a goal or assist, he was able to create scoring opportunities so easily and pass by easily.
, at least it shows that Wang Ai has good adaptability to La Liga.
As a special substitute player for Depor, this has exceeded the club's minimum requirements.
Apart from the Spanish media, the Chinese media was so intense that Wang Ai didn't even bother to read their comments.
Walking on the campus of the University of A Coruña, classmates would come up to chat from time to time. Unfortunately, Wang Ai still cannot speak Spanish, so she can only ask Constance next to her to translate.
Speaking of which, I made a bit of a mistake by choosing the Spanish Literature major at the University of A Coruña. I don’t understand Spanish, and I have to take classes to learn other people’s literature. This is really difficult. Even if you want to study on your own, you can’t even read the textbook
Fortunately, there was Constance, who was both a classmate and a translator. When Wang Ai went home to study on his own, he had to go to the bookstore and buy some English textbooks to study from.
This is not like in Tübingen. Wang Ai spent a year learning German at home with Huang Xin. This time he came to Spain completely forced. The transfer was only confirmed in May and he has not yet decided where to go, plus there are intermediate games.
There are too many and there is no time to study.
In this way, Constance was not only Wang Ai's translator, but also a Spanish teacher and a tutor in professional classes. Fortunately, she did not ask for an extra salary.
Sunday was the qualifying round of the King's Cup, so the league was suspended. Wang Ai also took this time to learn a few simple words for on-court communication and started training with the team every day. Since Wang Ai's performance in the last game was pretty good,
Therefore, the teammates gradually became enthusiastic.
At three o'clock in the morning on September 14th, Beijing time, on September 13th, local time in Spain, the third round of La Liga began. Deportivo went south to Sevilla to challenge the Sevilla team.
After the whole team arrived in Seville in the morning, they conducted a simple adaptation to the venue, and in the afternoon conducted a simple pre-match training at a venue near the hotel.
At 21 o'clock in the evening, the whole team rushed to the Ramon Stadium. The home team Sevilla wore white jerseys and the visiting team Deportivo La Coruna wore black jerseys. The contrast between the two sides was sharp.
In this game, Wang Ai was still placed on the bench, sitting on the sidelines and watching the game calmly.
Depor opened the scoring in the 11th minute of the first half, with Victor making a beautiful turn and volley from the center.
After more than ten minutes of fighting, Sevilla also scored a goal from the away team in the 33rd minute of the first half. The two sides ended the first half with a score of 1:1.
Returning to the second half, the situation was stalemate. At least from Wang Ai's perspective, although there was a gap in strength between the two sides, it was very small. Deportivo's victory was due to the fact that individual players were stronger than the Sevilla players, but not by much.
Depor has a slightly greater chance of winning, but Sevilla is not without a chance.
While he was thinking about it on the sidelines, Constance poked him from behind. Wang Ai turned his head, and head coach Irueta waved him seriously to get up and warm up.
Wang Ai looked up at the time in confusion. It was only five minutes into the second half. Is it my turn now?
This head coach is really interesting. He didn’t say a word to me in private, and he didn’t even make any preparations. I thought he would have to let me come in at the end of the garbage time.
While continuing to ponder, Wang Ai, who was running back and forth on the sidelines to warm up, forgot that it wasn't that Irueta didn't want to talk to him, but that they didn't understand the language. When Irueta was giving instructions to the team members, Wang Ai was accompanied by a
The little girl muttered, which made Irueta particularly uncomfortable.
He simply didn't talk to Wang Ai. He wanted to see how Wang Ai's ability to read the game was. An excellent player at least does not need too much interference from the coach when playing on the court. At most, the coach can remind him to pay attention to the rhythm.
, pay attention to the formation of these.
With 35 minutes left in the game, Wang Ai came on as substitute for Fran this time and was moved to the left wing.
This time, Wang Ai had more opportunities to get the ball, and his teammates trusted Wang Ai more. So as soon as he came on the field, he received a direct pass from left back Naibet. Wang Ai did not stop the ball and directly distributed the football to him.
Mauro Silva, who inserted himself in the middle, immediately moved forward to prepare for the attack of his teammates from the side.
Unfortunately, this offensive was eventually resolved by the other side.
But Wang Ai's touch of the ball and his crisp offensive support further won the recognition of his teammates. Wang Ai will have more opportunities to get the ball next.
Ten minutes after touching the ball for the first time, Wang Ai responded to Belleron's breakthrough in the middle. Belleron passed the ball to the right. After Wang Ai got the ball, he made a decisive move. After two fake moves, he shook off the opposing defender and followed up.
Touching the baseline, he passed a fast and flat cross.
When the football reaches the goal, the goalkeeper attacks and intercepts the threatening ball midway.
Just listen to the sound of anger in the stadium.
Wang Ai didn't score a goal or assist, but everyone could see his threat, it was too deadly!
If the Sevilla goalkeeper hadn't reacted quickly and concentrated on the ball just now, he wouldn't have had time to run back and intercept it in the middle. If the ball had reached the goal, he would have scored with just one touch.
Wang Ai was not upset and continued to slowly look for opportunities.
In the 35th minute of the second half, Sergio created a good opportunity. After a small cooperation with Belleron on the right, he passed a long pass to the right. As a result, Luke followed up and passed back to the goal.
Before, Dejaminha, who came on as a substitute, successfully grabbed the point.
Deportivo leads Sevilla 2:1.
Subsequently, the two sides had several more contests. Unfortunately, Depor's defense was very solid and did not give Sevilla any good opportunities. Instead, Depor's right wing frequently made dangerous moves. Wang Ai was very active on the court and had a wide range of activities.
Big, supporting from the center line, supporting from the middle, and going forward to the base, which caused a lot of trouble and forced Sevilla to strengthen its defense on the right.
In the end, the two sides ended the game 2:1.
Deportivo also won three consecutive victories in La Liga this season.
It's just that Wang Ai still hasn't scored a goal or assisted. This is a bit confusing. He played well and ran actively, but he didn't make any achievements. Although the club and the head coach were right when asked,
Wang Ai is satisfied with his performance.
However, the Chinese fans are not satisfied. It is Wang Ai who has fed their appetite. I got up early in the morning to watch you play, but you didn't even score a goal. It's so boring!
