After the 34th round of La Liga, there are only four rounds left.
The countdown to the championship between Malaga and Barcelona begins.
Major European media have analyzed the championship situation between the two teams. Most media believe that although Barcelona is temporarily behind by one point, it has an advantage.
The British Times newspaper said: "Even if Malaga can win three games, as long as Barcelona can bite it and defeat Malaga in the best round, they can win the championship.
And Malaga must withstand the test of the Bernabeu before that.
Meeting Real Madrid and Barcelona in the last four rounds is something no one wants, but Malaga must accept such a test.
As a team like Malaga, if it wants to win the championship in La Liga, it must withstand the test of Real Madrid and Barcelona.
If they can really withstand the test, the quality of this championship trophy will become extremely bright.
But Barcelona will definitely not let them get what they want.
Maybe by waiting until the last round, Barcelona can lock in the championship in advance!"
L'Equipe said: "What lies ahead of Málaga are Real Madrid and Barcelona. Although they did win at home as they wished in the first half, that is already in the past.
Now they have two away games to play.
The three major European gambling companies are also not optimistic about Malaga winning. Barcelona's odds of winning are 1:2.4, while Malaga's odds are 1:3.6.
But no matter what the result is, for Málaga, they have been extremely successful this season.
In his first appearance in the Champions League, he reached the quarter-finals and was able to compete with Barcelona for the La Liga title.
In La Liga, except for Real Madrid, for other teams, this is a fantastic result!"
Gazzetta dello Sport said: "Barcelona and Malaga are in similar situations now. They are strong in attack and weak in defense. They can occupy the top two in La Liga not by defense, but by sharp offense.
In this case, even if Malaga can maintain the suspense until the last round, it may still be disappointing to welcome them.
Although Barcelona just suffered a humiliating defeat to Bayern 0-3 at the Nou Camp, we must know that this is the first round where they lost four goals and they are no longer interested in playing.
But playing against Malaga, they have no baggage.
Therefore, Barcelona will be the winner in the end!
Unless a miracle happens, unless Barcelona is opened up by Malaga before the decisive battle.
But this is impossible!
Barcelona definitely don’t want to lose the La Liga title again.”
Although not favored by the media, Malaga was not discouraged.
For them, this is already a successful season. Even if they fail to win the championship in the end, it cannot affect their glory.
But Li Chuanqi didn't think so. He wanted to win the La Liga championship and bring a perfect end to his career in Malaga.
To this end, he took the initiative to communicate with the big guys in the team and even with important figures in the South American gang.
After Pellegrini heard the news, he was speechless for a long time.
This was clearly his job, and now it was taken away from him.
At the same time, his heart was full of joy. With such a player, why should he worry about big things happening?
…
On May 11th, the 35th round of La Liga begins!
Barcelona went to an away game this round to challenge Atletico Madrid.
Malaga hosts Sevilla.
Simeone called Li Chuanqi before the game and asked jokingly: "Li, I'm going to let it go in this game."
Li Chuanqi smiled and said: "It's okay. At worst, if we defeat them in the last game, we can still win the championship."
Simone is very depressed. If you say that, then I am really ready to let go.
Li Chuanqi smiled and said: "But, I know you won't do this, right?"
Simeone smiled and said: "Yes, that's right. Okay, I'm going to let my players work hard. Just wait for my good news!"
The match between Malaga and Sevilla starts first!
The La Rosaleda was packed with people, and Malaga fans knew it was the last minute.
This is like a 100-meter race that has now reached the sprint stage.
At 7:30 in the evening, the game started on time.
Malaga, who took the lead in serving the ball, immediately launched an attack, and the defense line pressed close to the center line, assuming a decisive battle posture.
In the second minute of the first half, Malaga got a chance with Li Chuanqi's sharp breakthrough from the wing.
Li Chuanqi made a pass from the wing, and Santa Cruz, who has been in good form recently, headed the ball towards the goal!
The football was lifted over the crossbar by the opponent's goalkeeper!
Joaquín took a corner kick and Santa Cruz once again completed a header and the ball went over the crossbar.
In the following games, Malaga frequently put pressure on Sevilla's goal.
However, due to Seville's stubborn resistance, Malaga showed only flowers but no fruits.
With the opponent chasing and intercepting him, Li Chuanqi only managed a very reluctant long-range shot, and the football went over the crossbar.
In the 42nd minute of the first half, Li Chuanqi seized the opportunity and passed three people on the left, reaching the penalty area and shooting hard!
The Sevilla goalkeeper bravely blocked the football, Santa Cruz shot a supplementary shot, and the football miraculously missed the goal!
The two sides had to end the first half with a score of zero to zero.
After the start of the second half, Malaga adopted a high-pressing tactic.
In the fifth minute of the second half, their tactics paid off. Li Chuanqi relied on his strong premonition to steal in front of the penalty area and passed the ball diagonally to the right side of the penalty area!
Joaquin penetrates forward and shoots hard!
The football blasts the Sevilla goal!
One to zero!
Malaga breaks the deadlock.
The Rose Garden Stadium was filled with cheers.
This goal boosted Malaga's morale. After the game restarted, they continued to press with high pressure. Sevilla only had to use their big feet to attack.
After Malaga got the ball, they quickly moved the football to the frontcourt. Isco made a long pass over the top and the football flew towards the left side of the penalty area!
Li Chuanqi quickly moved forward, jumped high, and made a beautiful header pass, passing the football to Santa Cruz in the arc of the penalty area.
The latter raised his chest to unload the football. Before the football hit the ground, he raised his right foot and fired a volley!
This is an earth-shattering shot!
The football directly blasted the Sevilla goal!
Two to zero!
Santa Cruz immediately hugged Li Chuanqi tightly.
Having scored in three consecutive games, he seems to have found his peak form.
He knew that this was all Li Chuanqi creating opportunities for him.
Two goals were scored within five minutes, and Malaga firmly took control of the initiative.
Ten minutes later, Malaga sealed the victory.
Isco made a direct pass in the penalty area. Santa Cruz was in an offside position, which distracted the Sevilla defense. Duda advanced into the penalty area and fired a low shot!
Three to zero!
Malaga seals victory!
Two minutes later, Li Chuanqi came off the field to thunderous applause from the home fans.
With the victory in hand, Pellegrini began to replace key players.
Five minutes later, he replaced Isco.
Joaquin was also replaced later.
In the end, Malaga defeated Sevilla at home and continued to make great strides towards the championship.
The next night, Simeone and Atletico Madrid defeated Barcelona at the Calderon Stadium.
After ninety minutes of fierce fighting, Barcelona won a thrilling victory with a score of 2 to 1 thanks to a last-minute own goal from Atletico Madrid.
Simeone did not fulfill the pre-match agreement with Li Chuanqi.
After the game was over, Simeone sent a message to Li Chuanqi: "Li, I'm sorry that I couldn't fulfill my promise before the game. If you want to win the championship, you can only rely on yourselves."
Li Chuanqi texted him back: "It's okay. I had expected this result."
When Simeone saw his message, he almost vomited three liters of blood!
