After the game against Albacete, Su Dong said confidently when being interviewed by the media.
He wants to declare war on Ronaldo with this simple sentence!
More importantly, he feels that he should shoulder the burden of the team's offense, which is what head coach Benitez wants him to do.
With the continuous scoring this season, Su Dong's self-confidence has also been greatly improved. He feels that he is on an unprecedented path of rapid progress, and his self-confidence is also rising with his strength and performance.
.
Whether it's himself, his teammates around him, or the team, he needs to take on more responsibilities.
If you haven't felt this way before, then in the past two weeks when Su Dong was absent, everyone in Valencia has clearly felt the importance of Su Dong. Even Mista himself admitted this.
This simple sentence also tells Valencia fans that he is back, and Valencia's goals are back too!
However, unfortunately, midfielder Aimar was injured again.
He felt muscle discomfort after the game, and when he was examined, it was discovered that he had a tendon strain and would be sidelined for at least two weeks.
There is no problem with Argentina's attacking midfielder ability, but his body is too glassy.
And Vicente, he is also often injured.
But Su Dong's return still made Valencia more motivated.

A week later, in the 22nd round of La Liga, Valencia visited the Rose Garden to challenge Malaga.
Only four minutes into the game, Su Dongla got the ball from the right, suddenly started, forced a breakthrough to the bottom line and passed the ball.
Mista in the middle beat Malaga defender Sanz and headed the goal, opening the scoring for Valencia.
One to zero!
Ten minutes later, there was another attack from the right. Right back Garrido rushed to the corner with the ball and suddenly knocked back. Sudong stopped the ball in the penalty area, observed it, and fired a volley.
The ball went into Malaga's goal again, 2-0!
Then Valencia basically controlled the situation steadily until the 40th minute of the game when Argentine defender Pellegrino suddenly fainted in his own half.
This was an unexpected incident, no one was around, and everyone was frightened.
The team doctor quickly carried Pellegrino out on a stretcher and sent him directly to the hospital for examination.
Benitez replaced Pellegrino with Marchena.
During the halftime break, news came from the hospital that Pellegrino's life was not in danger and a more comprehensive physical examination was being carried out. This also made everyone in Valencia breathe a sigh of relief.
After a change of sides in the second half, Marchena took advantage of a corner kick to score another victory for Valencia, 3-0.
In the 72nd minute, Albelda once again penetrated Malaga's goal from the outside of the penalty area, making it 4-0.
Then in the final stage, Salva scored a goal for Malaga to save face, but still lost at home.
Valencia defeated Malaga 4-1 away from home and took all three points.
…
After the game, the entire Spanish football world was discussing Pellegrino's injury and Valencia's victory.
The Argentinian quickly received the test results. The doctor diagnosed that there was no problem either physically or psychologically, but they could not give an answer as to why he fainted. They just suggested not to participate in the game for the time being.
Valencia's victory made the fans excited and also allowed the media to once again find a hot spot for speculation.
Vicente and Aimar were both absent, but Valencia's offensive was not weakened at all. All media reporters focused on Su Dong, thinking that it was Su Dong's performance that helped Valencia create a big game.
win.
"Many people say that Valencia's offense this season relies on the iron triangle, but we have all seen that when Su Dong was absent, the partnership of Vicente and Aimar could not solve the team's scoring problem at all, and Aimar
When Marr was fighting alone, Valencia was in even more difficulty."
"But now, when Vicente and Aimar are both absent, Su Dong used one pass and one shot to lead Valencia to a 4-0 away victory over Malaga. This in itself is the best proof!"
However, the media's attention was quickly attracted to Real Madrid and Barcelona.
Galacticos challenged Valladolid away in this round. After falling behind by two goals in the first half, Ronaldo scored twice. Coupled with Figo's goal, Real Madrid finally reversed Valladoli 3-2 away from home.
Germany.
For this game, the media and fans have two extreme opinions.
On the one hand, they think Real Madrid's offense is really strong, but on the other hand, they think Real Madrid's defense is really too fragile.
On the other hand, Real Madrid's mortal enemy, Barcelona, after beating Zaragoza 3-0 in the previous round, beat Albacete 5-0 at the Camp Nou in this round.
Xavi, Saviola, Quaresma, new aid Davis and Luis Enrique scored goals successively. This was Davis' first game for Barcelona and his performance was quite eye-catching.
This makes people believe that Rijkaard's team is finally starting to get better.
Ronaldo, who scored twice in this round and helped the team reverse Valladolid, called Su Dong immediately after the game and told him the "good news". He was quite proud.
He said that he has found the goal scoring state.
"I have scored 18 goals now!" Ronaldo said with a sullen smile on the phone.
"You'd better run faster, otherwise, we'll probably be even by the time we get to the Bernabeu!"
In the 24th round of La Liga, Valencia will challenge Real Madrid away and then face Barcelona at home.
It can be said that these two games are both crucial and very difficult.
Before challenging the two giants of the Spanish Super League, Valencia still has a roadblock, and that is Atletico Madrid.
"Don't worry, you can't catch up with me!" Su Dong replied calmly.
Come on, isn’t it just a brace?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It’s so awesome!
Who hasn’t scored a brace?
Have you forgotten who was so angry some time ago?
However, Valencia's upcoming schedule is indeed very stressful.
Atletico Madrid is currently ranked fourth in La Liga. There is no need to say more about their strength, but the most terrible thing is injuries.
Aimar is injured, Jorge Lopez is injured, Rufit is also injured, plus Pellegrino who suddenly fainted, Valencia is now full of injured soldiers, and the midfield substitute Mohamed
Sissoko was transferred to participate in the African Cup of Nations.
The only good news is that Vicente should be able to make it to the game against Atletico Madrid.
Valencia is full of injured soldiers and short of manpower, and Atletico Madrid is not much better.
So far in the season, which team has not had many injuries?
But Atletico Madrid is more unlucky. Their top scorer Torres is injured.
Torres is as important to Atletico Madrid as Sudong is to Valencia. His absence has a great impact on Atletico Madrid.
After it was confirmed that Torres would miss the game in Mestanha, Benitez temporarily adjusted the team's tactics and once again adopted a 4-4-2 double forward tactic.
The attitude of the head coach of the Bat Legion is very clear. Since there is no need to watch out for Torres, Valencia must take advantage of the home court to defeat the opponent in one fell swoop and get all three points!
…………
…………
On the evening of February 7th, Mestania Stadium.
In the 23rd round of La Liga, Valencia faced Atletico Madrid at home.
Benitez is a very pragmatic head coach. He knows very well how much weight his team has, and he also knows what kind of football to play under what circumstances.
Without Aimar, he adopted a two-forward combination to liberate Sudong; Rufite was injured, and Angulo became the team's emergency repairman on the right; as for the offense on the left, Vicente directly took over after recovering from injury.
Appear.
In the absence of Aimar, Valencia gave up the previous short passes in the frontcourt and adopted more concise and longer passes, especially crosses from the wing.
After all, there are two centers Sudong and Mista in the middle.
Atletico Madrid coach Manzano is also aware of his team's problems. Without Torres, he adopted a 4-1-4 formation. The deep-lying midfielder is veteran Simeone. In front of him, Jorge and Ibargaza
Partnering in the middle, Nicolaidis is on the front line.
But the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.
At the Mestanha Stadium, Valencia launched waves of offensive attacks from the very beginning.
Vicente was very active on the left. As a single defensive midfielder, Simeone had to take care of both the center and the wing, which was difficult to do. Jorge and Ibagaza were both passers, so against
The defense is not very protective.
So Sudong, Vicente and Baraja got connected, frequently planned offensives, and suppressed Atletico Madrid in the midfield, making it difficult for the Sheets Army to organize an effective offensive, and were forced to
Shrink the defense.
In the first half hour after the opening, Atletico Madrid didn't even have a shot, which shows how embarrassing the situation was.
Valencia frequently created threats, attacking into the hinterland again and again, just a little short of scoring.
As for the continuous attacks from the wing, especially after Sudong grabbed Simeone, Vicente frequently got one-on-one opportunities, allowing Valencia to get three corner kicks.
Unfortunately, none of the three corner kicks resulted in a goal.
In the 31st minute, Su Dong retreated to catch the ball again. After successfully attracting Simeone's attention, he distributed the ball to the left wing again. Vicente got the ball on the wing and formed a one-on-one situation, facing the defender.
Gaspar Galvez and Vicente were brave and once again relied on their speed advantage to force a breakthrough with the ball.
This time, Vicente almost passed by again, but in the end, center back Mathias Legui rushed over immediately and blocked the ball out of the baseline.
Another corner kick!
Vicente volunteered to run out of the baseline, picked up the football with one kick, quickly ran to the corner area, placed the ball directly, and immediately stepped back to take a run.
Beep!
The referee blew his whistle to indicate that he could not take the penalty yet.
All the tall players from both teams gathered in the penalty area, and Valencia's two central defenders, Marchena and Ayala, ran over.
Among everyone, Su Dong, who is 1.95 meters tall, stands out from the crowd and is naturally the focus of Atletico Madrid's defensive players.
The 19-meter-tall, 22-year-old Argentinian central defender Mathias Legui stood in front of Su Dong.
