1216 Who else is there besides him?

On the evening of October 5, the Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid.

In the seventh round of La Liga, Real Madrid faced Athletic Bilbao at home.

This was the last game of this round. Before that, Atletico Madrid lost 1-3 to Valencia away, and Barcelona defeated Vallecano 2-0 away, which gave Real Madrid a chance to reverse.

The two losses at the start of this season have kept Real Madrid's ranking low. So far, it is only ranked sixth, and it is still two points away from Atletico Madrid, which is fourth. However, if it can win Athletic Bilbao in this game, Real Madrid will undoubtedly make a counterattack and enter the top four of the league.

Yang Yang has been in a state of great success recently, and he is still entrusted with important tasks in this game and won.

Ancelotti once again adjusted the team's tactical style and continued to face Athletic Bilbao with a 442 lineup.

The goalkeeper is Courtois, the defense is Marcelo, Xavi Martinez, Ramos and Carvajal, the midfield is Hazard, Tony Kroos, Modric and James Rodriguez, and the double strikers are Yang Yang and Suarez.

Whether it is the defense line or the midfield, it is the area where Real Madrid has the most rotation. Ancelotti's main point is that considering Real Madrid's intensive schedule, he has to play two games almost every week. Without rotation, players who play hard can't stand it.

But there is one exception, that is Jamez Rodriguez.

Colombian players' performance this season is getting better.

He came to Real Madrid with a sky-high price of 80 million euros. He was not recognized by fans at first because he did not have the position of a midfielder in Real Madrid, and he performed well in the World Cup.

After coming to Real Madrid, Ancelotti adjusted his position and used him more as a right winger, that is, competing with Di Maria, but there were also loopholes. The most serious thing was in the second round of Real Sociedad. Real Madrid's defense was completely blown up, but the offense failed to open up the situation.

The one who received overwhelming criticism after the game was James Rodriguez.

There is no doubt that he is a world-class midfielder, but Real Madrid is not a Colombia national team, so it is impossible to give him a midfielder position. It is like Hazard also played for Lille at the beginning, but after coming to Real Madrid, he had to transform into a winger.

What's even more serious is that there is a very serious problem with Jamez Rodriguez.

As a South American player, James Rodriguez has excellent foot skills, but he still plays practically and runs very actively. The most important thing is that his thinking is very clear and has a big picture perspective. He is good at controlling the rhythm of the game, making rational judgments, and is good at passing organization.

But his problem is that when the ball is not around him, he needs to improve his attention and engagement in the game.

To put it simply, it is that his defensive awareness is not strong enough, which is a common problem for most South American technical players.

As early as during his time at Monaco, Ranieri pointed out his problem and urged him to improve it. After coming to Real Madrid, he quickly exposed this problem, and even was completely beaten by his opponent in Real Sociedad's game.

But surprisingly, after Real Sociedad and Atletico Madrid, James Rodriguez quickly bottomed out and rebounded, becoming more active in training, investing in games, and having a stronger willingness to participate in defense.

This made everyone believe that he is a very smart player who knows how to adjust his role.

When Di Maria was in a sluggish state due to participating in the World Cup, Jamele Rodriguez emerged and gradually began to form competitive pressure on Di Maria at the right winger.

This also made the Argentine winger very depressed. He finally sent away a killer Robben, but now he has ushered in a younger, more valuable and more threatening James Rodriguez.

But there is no way. If you want to stay in a team like Real Madrid, even if you are as strong as Yang Yang, you must do your best.

Ancelotti's continuous reuse of James Rodriguez is undoubtedly also sounding the alarm for Di Maria.

…………

…………

At the beginning of the game, Athletic Bilbao used a long shot to create a threat, but it was just a little troublesome. Courtois easily threw the ball and did not give him a chance to the phone.

And just one minute later, Real Madrid fought back.

After receiving Modric's pass from the right side of the frontcourt, James Rodriguez took the ball with his back and gently pushed it to the right. Carvajal quickly inserted it into the side and quickly dribbled the ball along the right line, pulling all the defensive attention away, and then suddenly knocked back.

James Rodriguez followed and passed the ball directly to the back point.

With Suarez in the middle, Yang Yang easily ran to the back point, and headed the ball to a far corner without anyone defending.

The ball hit the lower right corner of the goal, one to zero!

The goal in the opening game was scored just two minutes, quickly igniting the passion of the Bernabeu Stadium.

Five minutes later, Real Madrid intercepted the ball in the midfield, Tony Kroos gave a pass, Yang Yang quickly inserted it, and before everyone, after receiving the ball, he dribbled the ball and cut into the penalty area.

At the outside of the penalty area, facing the Athletic Bilbao central defender who was returning to defense, Yang Yang fought with one move, and a clever pendulum was extraordinary. After swaying past the opponent, he dribbled the ball and cut inside, and suddenly shot between the two central defenders.

He shot hard and volleyed against the ground, directly pulling the ball into the lower left corner of Athletic Bilbao again, 2 to zero!

Scoring twice!

Yang Yang was very excited. With the support of his teammates, he rushed to the bottom of the fans' stands on the sidelines and accepted the cheers and cheers from the fans.

Then, Real Madrid completely controlled the situation on the court.

Before the first half was about to end, in the 41st minute, Real Madrid won a corner kick in the frontcourt. Modric took a corner kick, Suarez headed the ball in the front point and scored again, three to zero.

During the break, Ramos was replaced by Varane due to injury, but less than five minutes into the second half, Yang Yang retreated to take over and made a very beautiful and imaginative pass.

At that time, it seemed as if he had eyes, and accurately sent the ball to Suarez who was sprinting. However, the Uruguayans themselves were shocked and rushed to the feet, but failed to make a high-quality shot, wasting Yang Yang's wonderful pass.

But soon, Suarez gave a straight pass, James Rodriguez crossed the middle from the right, Yang Yang easily inserted it, pushed the shot from close range, and scored a hat trick!

Four to zero!

In the 69th minute, Modric intercepted the ball and initiated a counterattack. Yang Yang pulled to the left side of the penalty area. After receiving the pass, he passed it to the middle from the left. Suarez shot near the penalty point and scored twice.

After that, Real Madrid made frequent substitutions, but in the 78th minute, in a corner kick attack, Xavi Martinez's header was blocked by the opponent's goalkeeper. Yang Yang took advantage of the situation and seized a chance, took a shot and scored another goal for Real Madrid.

Six to zero!

Another big four joy!

The entire Bernabeu Stadium was completely crazy!

When Yang Yang was replaced by Hesse, more than 80,000 fans from the entire Bernabeu stood up and cheered loudly for him. All the fans were rejoicing at his crazy state this season.

Yang Yang was happy for four years and Real Madrid won six goals. Is there anything more exciting for Real Madrid fans than this?

...

After the game, Ancelotti was very satisfied with his performance in this game, believing that the team played at a high level in both offense and defense, which proves that the team is getting better.

As for this game, Yang Yang and Suarez's wonderful performance, Ancelotti said that both players were very good.

"One of them played a big four, the other scored twice. Among the other players, James Rodriguez had two assists, Hazard was also very threatening on the left, Tony Kroos and Modric were in the midfield and performed stably, with one assist each. I think they both performed very well."

When discussing how Real Madrid got out of the predicament of the previous few rounds, Ancelotti emphasized two points, one is the unity of the team.

Real Madrid has been in and out of many stars over the years, including many world-class superstars, but the locker room has always maintained harmony and everyone is very united, which is the key factor in the team's achievements.

Another one is Yang Yang. Ancelotti believes that Yang Yang's comeback has allowed Real Madrid to find their soul again.

"If I can, I wish he could play ninety minutes on the court every game, but we all know that it's not realistic, so I need to make reasonable arrangements for his playing time."

As for this year's Golden Globe Awards, Ancelotti smiled and said, "I don't think anyone can receive this trophy except Yang Yang. What do you think?"

All the media reporters at the scene couldn't help but smile.

Who said no?

This year is the year of the competition. In the World Cup, Yang Yang brought the Chinese team to the final. This is the first time in the history of the World Cup finals that non-European and South American teams appeared, which is a miracle.

Not to mention the results Yang Yang has achieved, let alone surpasses, it is difficult to catch up.

In this case, if it weren't him, who else could there be?

If Yang Yang was a little more high-profile, he could basically announce that he was elected in advance!

...

Great success at the competitive level, and equally unambiguous at the business level.

Just the day before Real Madrid played Athletic Bilbao, Forbes, the US announced the 2014 athlete brand value list.

Yang Yang once again topped the list, with his brand value exceeding 100 million US dollars. Forbes said that it needs further confirmation, so he can only give a vague base, that is, more than 100 million US dollars.

But this ambiguity will not affect the authority of the list, because the second place is James of the American NBA. He returned to the Cavaliers this summer with a brand value of 37 million US dollars, the third place is golf superstar Tiger Woods, who is 36 million US dollars, and the fourth place is tennis king Federer, who is 32 million US dollars.

In other words, adding them all together can barely be on par with Yang Yang.

The other two other players in the top ten in the football field are Cristiano Ronaldo, with a brand value of 17 million US dollars and Messi, with a brand value of 12 million US dollars, which is far from Yang Yang.
