Chapter 130: Goodbye, 2016
Escriva frowned and walked to the sidelines, apparently noticing the passivity of the team on the field when Dai Zhiwei was heavily defended.
However, this is not an unexpected situation, and with Villarreal's increasing reliance on Dai Zhiwei, Eskrivá's coaching staff has long anticipated this situation and is ready to respond in a variety of ways.
Soon, Escriva made adjustments, sending Pato and Cheryshev to warm up, and then replacing Castillejo and replacing Cheryshev, while Bakambu was also removed by Pato.
In this way, Villarreal has added two points of possession in the frontcourt, and the team's attack is no longer blindly handed over to Dai Zhiwei.
Escriva hopes that such a change can be used against Atletico Madrid, who are pressing all over the field, and use the fitness and speed advantages of substitutes Pato and Cheryshev to pull out space and unleash Dai Zhiwei's vitality and let Atletico Madrid take care of the other.
With the appearance of Pato and Cheryshev, Dai Zhiwei no longer stood there to compete with Godin, and Dai Zhiwei, who was one street ahead of the opponent in speed, finished Godin.
Dai Zhiwei, who is standing, is relatively easy to be seen to death, but when he runs, it will undoubtedly be difficult to restrain him.
As Dai Zhiwei ran, Atletico Madrid's defense was completely torn apart, and at this moment, Villarreal made a steal in the midfield, and Trigueros sent a through kick.
In the previous few Villarreal attacks, it was launched by Pato and Cheryshev on the wing, and then Dai Zhiwei to end the attack, Atletico Madrid's defense will inevitably tilt to the side, but this time Trigueros is looking for Dai Zhiwei in the middle.
"Accurate!" Dai Zhiwei praised the accuracy of Trigueros' pass this time, unloaded the ball at his feet, did not slow down at any time, and completely shook off Godin after two steps.
At this point, he was almost a half-single, and there was only Savic between him and Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Oblak.
"Let's start here!" Dai Zhiwei saw that he was about to enter the penalty area, thinking that it would not be difficult for him to pass Savic, but Oblak in the back may not be able to dodge it, there are too many variables, so it is better to shoot directly here, which is more certain.
Just when Dai Zhiwei was about to shoot with a bow and arrow, he suddenly felt his shoulders tighten, and then lost his center of gravity, and was pulled directly from behind, and fell heavily in the penalty area.
"Hey, penalty!" Dai Zhiwei opened his arms as soon as he fell to the ground, signaling to the referee that he was pulled down by the opponent and should be awarded a penalty.
And Godin, the perpetrator just now, crossed his hands on his hips and helplessly explained to the referee who ran over that Dai Zhiwei was pulled down by himself outside the penalty area.
He didn't deny his foul.
After consulting with the linesman, the referee awarded Villarreal a penalty, while also not forgetting to give Godin a yellow card.
Suddenly, there were boos in Calderón Stadium, and all kinds of curses resounded endlessly, because the slow motion showed that Dai Zhiwei was brought down on the penalty line, and whether it was a penalty or a free kick on the penalty line was debatable, but this cunning guy simply fell into the penalty area.
The players in the Madrid Arena glanced at Dai Zhiwei with some anger, but found that he pretended to shrug his shoulders unwillingly, as if there was nothing wrong, and finally waved his hand.
Godin suddenly came up in a rage, he just aimed at Dai Zhiwei's hand that stepped on the line of the penalty area, he glared at Dai Zhiwei and shouted: "Boy, you are a liar!" ”
"Are you sick?" Dai Zhiwei glanced at Godin, said a word, and then saw that Godin had no intention of continuing to compete with him, shook his shoulder, turned his head and walked away.
Who can say that Dai Zhiwei is a fake fall?
Godin felt that his own foul was just a free kick on the line of the penalty area, but in fact, if it wasn't for his foul just now, Dai Zhiwei would have entered the penalty area, and when Savic was only defended by the goalkeeper in front, he believed that his chance of scoring with his feet was very high.
Dai Zhiwei didn't mean to worry about Godin, he just thought it was his anger after he was completely destroyed by his own mentality.
"I'm going to have a match with me, I want to be beautiful!"
The penalty kick, Dai Zhiwei naturally took the lead.
A large part of the reason why Dai Zhiwei has scored so many league goals this season is because he is Villarreal's first penalty taker, and he has also lived up to expectations, never missing a penalty.
After all, with the speed of the tiger's shot, the goalkeeper will not have time to save the ball even if he is right, even if he is right, unless he moves in advance.
Standing in front of the penalty spot, Dai Zhiwei ignored the aerobics of Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Oblak in front of the goal, and shot directly into the right side of the goal.
3:o!
Escriva on the sidelines was even more excited than Dai Zhiwei, who scored on the field, and danced to the ground to hit a combination of punches, because the score of 3:o completely made the outcome of the game no longer suspenseful.
Simeone had put his palm on his face before Dai Zhiwei took the penalty, and after seeing Dai Zhiwei score the penalty, he replaced Gabi and Torres, who were not performing well in the game, with Correa and Gameiro.
After the substitution, Simeone no longer stood on the sidelines and took the bench, apparently not even expecting the team to get the score back.
After already sealing the outcome of this game, Villarreal's attack got better and better, and the smooth attack suddenly unfolded like mercury, and Atletico Madrid also began to attack without hesitation.
The players at Atletico Madrid don't want to lose so ugly in front of their home fans, while Villarreal frontcourt players are hoping for a goal of their own.
As for Dai Zhiwei, he wants to "brush" a hat trick on Atletico Madrid!
After all, it is rare for Atletico Madrid under Simeone to have such a bad state, and if you don't take advantage of this opportunity, you don't know if you can meet it next time.
In the 69th minute of the game, Cheryshev, who had just come on as a substitute, sent the ball to Dai Zhiwei's feet after getting rid of Felipe's counter-attack.
"Annoying guy!"
Dai Zhiwei frowned and watched Godin still follow him unrelentingly, did not entangle with him, did not stop the ball, directly passed the ball back to the feet of Roberto Soriano, and then quickly formed a change with Pato and hit the middle.
Roberto Soriano didn't stop the ball either, kicking the ball across to Trigueros.
From Cheryshev's pass to Dai Zhiwei, to Dai Zhiwei's return pass to Roberto Soriano, and then to Roberto Soriano to Triguros, all four of them kicked the ball in less than 1o seconds, completely pulling the defense line at the front of the Atletico Madrid penalty area.
This kind of passing cooperation was completely rare when Dai Zhiwei was in the Chinese Super League before, and it can even be said that he had only seen it in past highlights, but it was a routine operation in La Liga.
The basic skills and awareness of Chinese domestic players are still far from La Liga players.
Trigueros used his skills to break through to the penalty area, saw an opposing player grabbing, did not hesitate, and directly sent the ball to the feet of Dai Zhiwei, who responded.
"Quick! Hurry up and go up! ”
Seeing Dai Zhiwei get the football at the front of the penalty area, whether it was the head coach Simeone on the sidelines, or the goalkeeper Oblak, or the captain Godin who rushed up, they were all so nervous that they almost jumped!
"Huh." Dai Zhiwei chuckled, took the ball in front of the big penalty area with ease, and started at high speed to pull the entire defense of Atletico Madrid.
Dai Zhiwei looked at Godin, who was rushing over, and with a slight toe pick, the ball passed through the height of his left arm and crossed to the right side of the penalty area.
Unless Godin "played volleyball", there was no time to intercept this ball.
At this time, Cheryshev, who was inserted at high speed, rushed out like an arrow from the string, met Dai Zhiwei's pass, stopped with his chest, and leaned his back against Atletico Madrid defender Felipe to protect the football.
"Dennis, here!" Cheryshev heard the shouts of his teammates and stabbed with his toes as the ball rolled from the ground to the left through the crowd in the box.
Godin was already a little dizzy by Dai Zhiwei, originally following the right side, and then to the left side, and then turned around from the left side to run to the middle, and just now Dai Zhiwei took advantage of the chaos at the front of the big penalty area and got into the crowd again.
At this time, Pato was already without anyone to defend in the penalty area, and Godin, who was a little dizzy by Dai Zhiwei's running, had to give up and continue to follow Dai Zhiwei closely, and instead went to make up for Pato.
As for whether Dai Zhiwei is guarded, Godin can't care so much.
Godin thought that Cheryshev would send the ball to Oh Pato, who had been unguarded before, but who thought that Cheryshev's vision was completely blocked, and between the lightning and flint, there was no situation here at all.
Dai Zhiwei saw that there was chaos in front of the big forbidden area, so he immediately ran to Cheryshev and shouted to the other party.
Just as Cheryshev sent the ball out, the two ran almost in parallel, Dai Zhiwei realized that there was no one around, rushed up a few steps, and did not choose to burst into the penalty area, choosing to grasp a larger position, but directly turned his body halfway, picked up his left foot, and shot with his feet.
Dai Zhiwei twisted his body that was still leaning forward, his right leg exerted force, and his foot was heavily pumped in the middle of the ball, and he volleyed a burst shot directly to the far end of the goal.
When Oblak saw Dai Zhiwei, he had already finished shooting, and the ball flew over like a flint.
Oblak subconsciously flipped sideways, but there was no way to touch the ball at all, but he fell directly backwards into the ball.
4:o!
"Whew! Call! ”
After scoring the goal, Dai Zhiwei compared his hands to a pistol this time, and his left hand and right hand did two consecutive muzzle blowing celebrations, because he felt that his state was too hot!
Who else can score a hat-trick against Simeone's Atletico Madrid?
The reporters in the media seats in the stands were also boiling, this goal was Dai Zhiwei's 18th league goal this season, ranking first in the scorer list!
The match against Atletico Madrid is only the 15th round of La Liga this season, but Dai Zhiwei has already scored 18 goals, and now the outside world is speculating how many goals he can score this season?
3o pcs?
4o pcs?
Or is it more?
At the beginning of the season, Dai Zhiwei's odds for the La Liga Golden Boot were the lowest at 1 to 11, but now, the odds are only 1 to 3.4, second only to Messi and comparable to Ronaldo's odds.
Looking at Dai Zhiwei, who was cheering with his teammates in the field, Escriva fell into a sweet annoyance.
The winter transfer window of this season is about to open, and Dai Zhiwei will definitely be the favorite for many giants and strong teams to recruit, and Escriva who does not have the right to transfer is worried about whether a winter break will pass, and the team will suddenly have no Dai Zhiwei.
"At least one season!" Escriva muttered to himself, he knew that a small team like Villarreal would not be able to retain a promising dragon like Dai Zhiwei, and he just hoped that this beautiful process would be longer.
In the 8o minute, Dai Zhiwei, who completed a hat-trick, was replaced by Soldado.
Atletico Madrid scored a goal in stoppage time to save some home face - in the 91st minute, Villarreal made a mistake to clear a free kick, and Carrasco's volley from 15 meters on the right side of the penalty area was refracted and flew into the far corner of the goal, but the score of 4:1 was still the best gift for the Yellow Submarine fans.
After this campaign, the Yellow Submarine replaced Atletico Madrid's top four in the league, while the losing Atletico Madrid moved behind Real Sociedad in sixth place.
After a win over a tough opponent like Atletico Madrid, Villarreal has only the last two opponents left in the 2o16 schedule.
In the 16th round of La Liga, they traveled to challenge Sporting Gijón away.
In the 12th minute, Robert Soriano crossed from the left side of the penalty area, and Dos Santos shot into the near corner from 12 yards on the right side of the penalty area, 1:o!
In the 19th minute, Pato's shot from the left side of the penalty area was blocked and deflected, and Dai Zhiwei scored an empty goal from close range to score his 19th goal in La Liga, and also rewrote the score to 2:o!
In the 74th minute, Dai Zhiwei crossed from the left side of the penalty area, and Pato pushed it into the net from the edge of the small penalty area, 3:o!
Sporting Gijón saved face in the 89th minute when a header from the right side of the penalty area in a corner kick melee by Carmona went into the far corner as Villarreal ended their 2o16 La Liga campaign with a winning streak.
Villarreal's final match in 2o16 was the second leg of the fourth round of the Copa del Rey against Toledo.
Toledo didn't pose much of a threat to Villarreal, as the Yellow Submarine sealed the win in the first half thanks to goals from Dai Zhiwei and Bakambu, and successfully qualified for the next round of the Copa del Rey.
It is worth mentioning that in this game, 19-year-old Chinese player Shuangbijia came off the bench on behalf of Toledo, becoming the third Chinese player to play in the Copa del Rey after Zhang Chengdong and Dai Zhiwei.
It's a pity that by the time Shuangbijia came on as a substitute in the 81st minute, Dai Zhiwei had already been replaced.
However, Dai Zhiwei deliberately waited until after the game to talk to Shuangbijia and encourage him to continue to work hard.
After this battle, Dai Zhiwei ushered in a two-week winter break.
