Because the match between Villarreal and Real Betis was in the second half of the night of Chinese time, and the game was not broadcast live on TV, there were not many fans watching this game in China, but everyone was an absolute fan of Dai Zhiwei.

They don't care if Villarreal wins or not, they just hope that Dai Zhiwei can come on as soon as possible.

In the 38th minute, Villarreal had another good chance when the ball was crossed by Trigueros from the right past Bruno Soriano to the left, and Dos Santos dodged successive scrambles and crossed the middle, and the follow-up Bruno Soriano fired a shot wide of the woodwork.

Four minutes later, Bakambu tried to force the defence of Vargas and Pezzella and the referee signalled for a foul and missed the last chance of the first half.

While Bakambu was still complaining to the referee, Real Betis launched a quick counter-attack, Musacchio's header was not cleared, and Kadir's direct volley unfortunately went slightly high, almost grazing the crossbar and flying off the bottom line.

This shot made Dai Zhiwei happy and sad, happy that the team did not fall behind, sad that the opponent did not break the goal, then the desire for the goal can still be suppressed, so the possibility of Dai Zhiwei playing will not increase much.

Well, Dai Zhiwei admits that his mentality is a little unhealthy, but now that he has not integrated into Villarreal, it should be reasonable to care about his own development.

If you are good, you will help the world, and if you are poor, you will be good alone.

At present, Dai Zhiwei is still "poor"!

Sure enough, as Dai Zhiwei expected, in the locker room at halftime, Marcelino emphasized more stability and defense, and even if he couldn't win, he still kept one point.

In the rematch, Real Betis also seems to see that Villarreal's desire to win is not strong enough, and continues to play with Villarreal to attack and defend the peace ball.

Villarreal continued their attacking momentum, but they were still the last breath away from scoring.

In the 58th minute, Bruno Soriano delivered a clever pass, but Bakambu couldn't capitalise on his chance, and his header was blocked by Adan.

In the 62nd minute, Villarreal made a series of small combinations, dos Santos received a pass from Bruno Soriano and shot at goal, but unfortunately the ball hit the side netting.

'Roberto's form has slipped too quickly and he doesn't seem to have recovered from the cold weather in England. Marcelino sighed to the assistant coach beside him.

Soldado, once known as Spain's "striker", was unaccustomed to joining Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League for a sky-high transfer fee of £30 million, scoring just 16 goals in 76 appearances for the White Hart Lane team, many of which were penalties, and was completely reduced to a substitute last season with the explosion of Harry Kane.

Last summer, Soldado joined Villarreal for a transfer fee of 10 million euros, a significant reduction from when he joined two years ago. So far this season, Soldado has scored just six goals in 25 appearances for Villarreal, including just three in the league, which is not in keeping with his former reputation.

"Dai, are you warming up?" The assistant coach told Dai Zhiwei that shortly after the start of the second half, he had already started jogging on the sidelines to warm up.

"No problem!" The local winter in Spain is very cold, Dai Zhiwei is also wearing long sleeves on the upper body, and he also wears black gloves on his hands, except for the neck and above, only the knees are less than 10cm exposed on the whole body.

Dai Zhiwei was not surprised at all that he came off the bench less than 10 days after joining the team, because there really aren't many rivals in the current Villarreal squad: either he is not in good form, or he is not good at playing, or he lacks experience in the game – which is one of the main reasons why he finally chose to join Villarreal.

In the 76th minute, Villarreal replaced Soldado with Dai Zhiwei.

Dai Zhiwei hugged Soldado on the sidelines and then rushed into the middle of the lawn, although it was only a short ten minutes, but Dai Zhiwei was not ready to go through the motions.

Less than 2 minutes after Dai Zhiwei was on the field, Bruno Soriano broke the ball at the back, and had no choice but to kick the ball forward with a big foot when the opponent was reluctant, but unexpectedly, it was passed to the feet of dos Santos.

Dos Santos broke through with the ball on the flank, distributed it to Triguros in front and quickly moved closer to the middle, taking away the defenders.

Trigueros then crossed, but unfortunately Dai Zhiwei's header was too positive under the mentality of meritorious service, and was easily blocked by the opposing goalkeeper, and Bakambu followed up with a follow-up shot and was blocked by the defender who returned to block the eye-catching.

"Mourning!"

This time, which can be called a good opportunity, Dai Zhiwei waved his fist fiercely, but Triguros did not have enough tacit understanding with Dai Zhiwei, far inferior to the passes sent to Dai Zhiwei by Evergrande teammates such as Goulart and Zhang Linpeng.

This is not to say that Trigros is not as strong as Goulart and Zhang Linpeng, but because his tacit understanding with Dai Zhiwei is very average.

At this time, the game showed a stalemate, the score of 0:0 was the most unsafe score, and anything could happen, but no one could stand up to break the deadlock, and Villarreal was suffering like Real Betis.

It's a pity that the time is almost 90 minutes, and it is not the most unsafe 0:0, and the two sides are about to enter the final injury time.

Villarreal recoiled even more at Marcelino's cue, and almost all of the yellow submarine players retreated into their own half, with the exception of Dai Zhiwei and Bakambu in front.

But just when Villarreal was almost the whole team retreating, they created the best chance of the second half - in the thirtieth minute of the game, Suarez received the ball in the back and swooped down, and when Cadir was entangled, he suddenly found Trigueros on the right side with a long diagonal pass, Trigueros turned to the middle after successive unsuccessful shaking, and while successfully attracting the opponent's defense, the ball was distributed to Dos Santos, who was inserted at high speed on the right side.

Dos Santos picked up the ball on the baseline and shook off Vargas's ferocious press before quickly getting his feet up and crossing.

Real Betis' air defence is very problematic, because the two central defenders on the field, Pezzella and Cabrera, are only 180cm and 184cm respectively, Bakambu is also 182cm tall, and Dai Zhiwei's current height has also risen by 2cm, to 177cm - finally not holding the country back.

Bakambu grabbed the first point in front of Pezzella, but the arc of the ball was not yet fully unfolded, and the angle of the direct shot was a little small, which may not pose much threat to the goalkeeper - unless Bakambu can top a header similar to the one scored by Mexico against Italy in 2002.

Just as Bakambu hesitated, a shout suddenly sounded behind him.

"Leak!"

It's a phrase in French!

At the last moment, Bakambu didn't care who shouted it, and when he heard his native language, he just subconsciously tilted his head slightly and let the ball go in front of his head.

Pezzella, who was close to Bakambu, couldn't react and could only watch the ball pass in front of his own Bakambu's eyes.

Originally, this time Real Betis goalkeeper Adan saw that Dos Santos's pass had moved to the point in front of the goal, and Bakambu was very clever to grab the first point, and was putting all his attention on Bakambu's body, so he was ready to make a save.

However, he didn't expect Bakambu to miss this pass, and the panicked Adan hurriedly turned his head to look at the other side of the goal, which was already an empty goal, and saw a figure flashing in front of him, and when the ball arrived, the ball immediately changed its trajectory and flew towards the goal.

Adan couldn't make a save, so he had to watch the football go into the net.

1:0！

Villarreal finally broke the deadlock on the field!

At this time, the game has entered the injury time, and this goal can almost be said to be a stunner!

Adan angrily looked up at the perpetrator and found that the scorer was none other than Dai Zhiwei, whom Villarreal had just replaced.

"Leaky beautiful!" Dai Zhiwei smiled and pointed at Bakambu, but what he said was French.

"I knew it was you!" Bakambu also smiled back in French, giving the other a hard hug.

Although he has been with Villarreal for less than a week, Dai Zhiwei's popularity is not bad, because he knows many foreign languages and can talk to many "foreign aids" in the team in the other party's familiar native language, such as talking to Bakambu in French.

For the first time, Dai Zhiwei felt the benefits of playing at Villarreal - when he was in the Evergrande team, he was the first dangerous person to be guarded by the opponent, and he often attracted the opponent's firepower for his teammates, but in the second half of the league, he rarely had such an easy chance to score.

Real Betis restarted with just one minute left and before they could make a decent run of attack against Villarreal, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.

Coming off the bench and grabbing a point, Dai Zhiwei used such a performance to lay an almost perfect start for his road to stay abroad!
