Moreno's mission today is very clear, which is to create opportunities for Zhao Yang.
After attracting the defense, Moreno kicked his heel back and passed the ball to Perez who came up with an assist.
When Perez saw Zhao Yang heading towards the penalty area, he did not move forward and passed the ball across the penalty area.
now
Seville is a bit chaotic.
When Zhao Yang moved forward, Chris, who was immediately watching him, was distracted.
No one else saw it.
By the time Chris saw that no one was around him, Zhao Yang was already more than two meters away from him.
Perez's ball passed right into Zhao Yang's running route.
Before reaching the penalty area, Zhao Yang jumped high, glided in the air, and rushed towards the flying ball.
The ball comes and the man comes.
In the air, Zhao Yang faced the ball and smashed it over like a mountain bearing down on him.
There was no one to defend him! Zhao Yang was very comfortable on the top.
The ball flew straight to the lower left corner of the goal!
"ah!"
In the stands, Sevilla fans couldn't help but let out a burst of exclamations.
Such a close distance, such a powerful header, it is difficult for the goalkeeper to react.
Sevilla goalkeeper Rico's attention has been on Zhao Yang, but the direction of the header is too difficult to judge.
When Rico saw the ball flying to the left, he immediately jumped as fast as possible and stretched out his arms to intercept it.
The speed of the ball was so fast that before Rico's hand could fully extend, the ball flew past him and went straight into the net.
1:0
Zhao Yang scored a header and opened the scoring for the Spaniards.
This is Zhao Yang's 38th goal.
With this goal, Zhao Yang widened the goal gap with Suarez to three, taking a step closer to being the top scorer this season.
After scoring the goal, Zhao Yang lifted his jersey, covered his head, and rushed to the sidelines.
The Espanyol fans and Zhao Yang fans in the stands have been waiting for this goal for a long time.
The ball goes in!
Applause rang out from all sides of the stadium.
Like thunder, like a tsunami.
The DJ at the scene shouted crazily: Zhao Yang scored a goal! Let us congratulate Zhao Yang! Zhao Yang, Zhao Yang...
"Zhao... Yang... Zhao... Yang..."
The Spanish fans at the scene chanted along!
Chinese commentator He Wei was also relieved and cheered: "Zhao Yang finally scored! 38 goals! 3 more than Su Ya and 7 more than Cristiano Ronaldo! Tying the goal record of Iranian star Hashemian
!If Zhao Yang can score in the next two rounds, it will be difficult for Su Ya to catch up!"
Fang Jian next to him added: "38 goals in a single season! This is already a record for Asian players in the five major leagues! But it is still far away from the total number of goals scored by Asian players in the five major leagues. Cha Bum-gen! 98 goals in the Bundesliga One! But according to this efficiency, Zhao Yang can surpass him in three seasons!"
Zhao Yang scored a goal, and the Spaniards were extremely happy up and down.
As an opponent, the Sevillans were very annoyed.
Facing a team with no desires and desires, they were unable to score the opponent's goal. This is something Sevilla, which has always been known for being good at attacking, cannot accept.
The time has reached the 70th minute of the second half, and Emery is anxious.
"Press up! Press up!"
"Hit behind the defender!"
"We must fight back resolutely!"
…
Under Emery's stern urging, Sevilla increased their offensive intensity and made long passes behind the Spaniard whenever they had the chance.
Sevilla's offensive power was really unstoppable. They counterattacked very sharply and created several shooting opportunities in a row.
If it were the Spaniard before he got a place in the Champions League, he would have grown insignificant and had to shrink from Sevilla's counterattack.
But now, the Spaniards have no intention of shrinking and are attacking as before, not caring about the safety of their rear.
This bayonet style of play actually relies on the forward's ability to seize opportunities, as well as luck.
The attacking power of the Spanish forward is also ranked among the best in La Liga, plus today's luck is really good.
In the confrontation, the Spaniards once again seized the opportunity.
In the 77th minute of the game, Llorente received a pass from the right and hit the Spanish post with a tricky header.
The Spaniards then launched a quick counterattack.
Under the cover of the frontcourt trident of Zhao Yang, Moreno and Caicedo, Asensio dribbled the ball at high speed and reached the edge of the penalty area.
Sevilla midfielder Cotan quickly stepped forward to steal the ball.
Asensio made a spin from Marseille, turned and passed the ball, and then took a long shot.
Asensio's shot angle was also tricky. Goalkeeper Rico did not touch the ball. The ball bounced off the right post and hit goalkeeper Rico's body before being refracted.
Moreno was lucky and the ball bounced right in front of him.
If it had been the past, Moreno would have pushed the ball into an empty goal.
But it was different today. Moreno did not shoot, but very calmly passed the ball back to Zhao Yang at the edge of the penalty area.
Zhao Yang was a little surprised that Moreno was so selfless.
However, he subconsciously shot with his foot, and the ball went straight to the goal.
Goalkeeper Rico had just gotten up at this moment. The ball bounced twice. Rico got up and was confused. He didn't know where the ball was?
Seeing the ball flying over, Rico had no time to react and could only watch blankly as the ball flew into the empty goal.
2:0
The Spaniard expanded the score, Zhao Yang scored twice and scored his 39th goal of the season.
After scoring the goal, Zhao Yang did not run to the sideline like he did for the first goal, but ran to Moreno who passed the ball to him, gave him a big hug and threw him to the ground.
The Espanyol players all ran over and pressed on Zhao Yang and Moreno one by one, playing a game of Jenga.
El Prat Stadium was once again filled with applause and shouts.
The Chinese fans at the scene were so excited that they sang the Chinese national anthem.
Emery on the sidelines couldn't help shaking his head. He knew that this game was lost. He never expected that he would not be able to win against the Spaniards who had no desire in the away game, let alone that he would not be able to restrain Zhao Yang at all.
