On the evening of February 11, at the Santiago Bernabeu in Madrid.

In the first leg of the Spanish Copa del Rey, Real Madrid hosted Villarreal.

Before this game, everyone was worried about Real Madrid's recent slump, but Carlo Ancelotti showed strong confidence before the game, believing that the team can win at home.

At the beginning of the game, Real Madrid, who were fighting at home, pressed the attack vigorously, directly suppressed the opponent, and frequently got opportunities.

Yang Yang and Suarez partnered with two strikers, and Real Madrid returned to the combination of four and four, but the wind was not very smooth, and the players frequently missed scoring opportunities with each other, and even once Yang Yang assisted Marcelo to score a goal, but the referee signaled that Marcelo was offside and did not admit the goal.

Until the 31st minute, after Suarez made a steal in the front, he sent a direct pass, Yang Yang quickly inserted it, passed the goalkeeper after receiving the ball, and scored with his left foot to open the scoring for Real Madrid, 1-0.

Then Yang Yang and Suarez worked together continuously, and each created several scoring opportunities for the other party, but they couldn't score.

After the rematch in the second half, Yang Yang suddenly pulled to the left side of the penalty area to receive Isco's pass, and David Silva hit the wall twice in a row, quickly cut into Villarreal's penalty area, and finally Yang Yang stabbed him before falling to the ground in front of the goal, and assisted David Silva to hit the volley in front of the goal, 2-0.

Real Madrid then had another corner, with Vermaelen heading home to make it 3-0.

But in the 61st minute, Villarreal scored a goal from a long-range shot from the perimeter.

In the 70th minute, after Yang Yang cut inside with the ball on the left side of the penalty area, he suddenly shot a cold arrow with his right foot and hit a long shot, but was intercepted by the opposing player and hit the hands of the defender, and the referee signaled a penalty kick and a yellow card.

Yang Yang did not take the penalty himself, but gave the penalty opportunity to Suarez, and the Uruguayan striker easily pushed it into the shot.

In the end, Real Madrid defeated Villarreal 4-1 at home with one goal and two assists from Yang Yang.

On the evening of February 14, at the Bernabeu Stadium.

In the 23rd round of La Liga, Real Madrid hosted Deportivo La Coruna.

Deportivo La Coruna, who was a guest, took the lead and tried to threaten with the opening attack, but Real Madrid has not been in great form recently, and although it is playing at home, it is still steady.

Until the 22nd minute, De Bruyne, who started as substitute Di Maria, sent a diagonal pass on the right side, Yang Yang nodded the ball back to the middle, and followed up Isco volleyed it to open the scoring for Real Madrid.

Despite taking the lead, Real Madrid's performance in this game was still unsatisfactory, but Deportivo La Coruna created two good chances at the start of the second half and almost equalised, but Courtois was solid and did not give his opponent a chance to keep the goal in check.

In the 73rd minute, Azpilicueta sent a direct pass, after Yang Yang won the ball on the left side, he suddenly threw off the defender and cut inside, after attracting the attention of the defense, after passing diagonally, Suarez followed up and scored with a single knife, 2-0.

The score was maintained until half-time, when Real Madrid defended their league leader position once again by beating Deportivo La Coruna 2-0 thanks to two assists from Yang Yang.

Although Yang Yang failed to score in this game, his performance was still impressive with two assists, and he was once again elected the best player of the game, and everyone believed that even if he did not score, he was still the best player.

Another highly regarded was Ilia Ramendi, who started in place of Mascherano.

The young Spanish midfielder is certainly no problem, everyone knows that he is a very good player, but unfortunately, he has never been able to integrate into Real Madrid.

Against Deportivo La Coruna, Ilya Ramendi played quite well, not only covering a large area, but also making one clearance, two interceptions, six tackles, 80 passes, a 90 per cent success rate, and winning six of the nine individual duels, which are very good statistics, especially as a midfielder.

Carlo Ancelotti also publicly praised Ilya Ramendi in his post-match press conference, believing that the midfielder would be the strongest barrier in the team's midfield.

Yang Yang also praised Ilia Ramendi in an interview with the media after the game, "I hope he can stay, we all know that he is a very strong player and he can win a place at Real Madrid." ”

Not only that, Yang Yang also said that Ilya Ramendi is becoming more and more confident.

……

While Real Madrid beat Deportivo La Coruna 2-0, local rivals Atletico Madrid suffered a stunning 2-0 defeat to Celta Vigo on the road.

In this way, the situation in La Liga has become clearer.

Real Madrid are top of La Liga with 60 points, and the fact that the Galacticos have won 20 and lost 3 this season without a draw so far has surprised everyone.

Barcelona is second with 56 points, four points behind Real Madrid, but in recent times, Barcelona has won consecutive games and won 11 consecutive victories.

Atletico Madrid is third with 47 points, 13 points behind Real Madrid, and it is basically difficult to challenge for the league title, and if nothing happens, this season's La Liga title will be born between Real Madrid and Barcelona.

And who can have the last laugh depends on who can persevere.

……

The day after Real Madrid's defeat to Deportivo La Coruna, Yang Yang received two invitations.

At the same time, the Laureus World Sports Academy has officially announced the 2015 Laureus Sports Awards.

Not surprisingly, Yang Yang was once again shortlisted for the best male athlete, having been running with him for many years, and in the past few years, he had never been to the Laureus Awards because he knew he wouldn't get an award.

Historically, the Laureus Sports Awards have given individual awards to tennis, baseball, track and field, golf and other sports, and the team awards will only take football into account, because football has always been a team sport.

As the No. 1 player in world football in the past few years, Yang Yang has been shortlisted for the best male athlete every year, but has never won an award, which is also completely in line with the law of the Laureus Sports Awards in the past years.

If there are no accidents, I will be shortlisted again this year, but I will still accompany the runner.

Of course, many media and fans outside are also upset with Yang Yang, because his performance in the past few years has been too good, but he has never been able to impress Lawrence, and many people also believe that this is also a weakening of Lawrence's authority.

At the very least, in football, everyone recognises the FIFA Ballon d'Or more than Lawrence.

On the contrary, in the nomination for the Best Team Award, football occupies an important place this time.

World Cup-winning Germany, World Cup runners-up China, and Real Madrid, who have once again staged a Grand Slam, have three of the six nominated teams, and they all look very competitive.

Needless to say, the German national team, the World Cup champion is their most important award, Real Madrid also relies on the championship honor to gain favor, as for the Chinese national team, can reach the World Cup finals, although it was a pity to lose to the German team in the end, but in any case, the Chinese team can be regarded as a glorious defeat, staged a miracle that will go down in history.

In this case, no matter who wins the three candidate teams, they can be considered worthy of the award.

But what really caught Yang Yang's attention were the two invitations in his hands.

One is from the Laureus World Sports Association, they send an invitation letter to candidates every year, and Yang Yang is not surprised to receive it again, but the other is from the Laureus preparatory team in Shanghai, China, and they invited Yang Yang to return to China to participate in this grand event.

This year's Laureus Awards are held in Shanghai, China.

Not only that, but Chinese athlete Yao Juju and baseball player Li Na will receive the Special Achievement Award and the Sportsmanship Award, respectively.

Whether it is the Laureus official or the Shanghai preparatory team, they obviously hope that Yang Yang can return to China to participate, and of course, they also hope to use his influence to greatly boost the influence of the Laureus World Sports Awards.

……

"They invited me too." Su Ye also received an invitation letter.

Yang Yang turned on his mobile phone, looked at the schedule of the game, shook his head and said, "When the time comes, you go, I'm afraid I may not have time." ”

The Laureus Awards ceremony is on April 18, but if Real Madrid can reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League, April 18 will be on Saturday, which means that Yang Yang will need to miss a league game by then.

And the most important thing is that Yang Yang went, but he just watched others win awards, so why bother?

"And what if they give you the prize?" Su Ye asked with a smile.

Yang Yang shrugged his shoulders, "Then you will go up to receive the award on my behalf, which can be regarded as a beautiful thing." ”

Su Ye was also amused, and she also knew that Yang Yang was really unlikely to win the award.

Lawrence's individual awards have never been given to footballers, with the exception of the best comeback award, which went to Ronaldo, who performed well in the World Cup in South Korea and Japan at the time, and as for the best male athlete with the most weight, it has never been.

Yang Yang obviously didn't dare to think about it.

With his status and influence today, if he knows that he can't win the award, why bother?

Do you really want to go to the scene to see people win awards?

Yang Yang is not such a good person, he can't help Lawrence's momentum for no reason, but he returned empty-handed, even if he is willing, his agent is probably unwilling, and Real Madrid is probably not happy.

To put it bluntly, April 18 is a critical stage of the season, and it's okay to say that you can win the award, but if you don't get the award, won't this become a big injustice?

"Anyway, whoever likes to go, I will definitely not go." Yang Yang is very sure.

After saying that, he casually threw the invitation into the trash.
