"After the first round of the match, major Spanish media reported on Wang Feng's miraculous performance, 'Completed a hat-trick in 61 minutes, and the Chinese superstar continues to dominate the offensive end!'
"Marca" wrote that Real Madrid had the upper hand in the match against Villarreal, and their dominance on the offensive end was obvious to all. Happened!"
The key to all this is Wang Feng. Although Villarreal made many defensive arrangements against him, they were all resolved by him one by one.
"More importantly, Wang Feng seems to have fully integrated into Real Madrid's offensive system. The cooperation between him and his new teammates is very tacit, especially the through goal is impressive."
"Aspen" believes that Wang Feng is the most threatening player of Real Madrid. He not only scored three goals but also created many offensive opportunities. "The offensive organization of the Galaxy Battleship is completely handed over to Wang Feng."
They feel that the head coach Schuster made a wise decision. In fact, for a super attacker like Wang Feng, his multi-faceted ability is enough to deal with various complex scenarios. The head coach only needs to plan the overall tactical strategy, not the Players are completely confined to a frame.
"Schuster has done a good job in this regard, giving Wang Feng plenty of room to play. Although many people think he is arrogant, irritable and unreasonable, he does have his own wisdom and ideas."
"National Newspaper" believes that Villarreal is not an opponent of the Galacticos at all. "They played very passively, and Riquelme's state has declined visible to the naked eye."
"Maybe Riquelme no longer adapts to the European football environment. He is only 28 years old and at his peak. It is a bit embarrassing that the former Argentine footballer has become what he is today."
Villarreal coach Pellegrini accepted an interview after the game: "It's a pity that we lost to our opponent in the first game of the new season. We can't take advantage of it on the court."
"Wang Feng is the world's top striker. His performance is perfect. I noticed that many news reports mentioned his hard work. Even though he has achieved a lot, he still does not relax himself."
"On the other hand, there are no such players in our team. The gap between the core of the team is very obvious, so it is not surprising to lose."
Pellegrini's words surprised everyone. Many people thought that he was attacking Riquelme in a semi-public manner. The biggest core player in the Yellow Submarine team is the Argentine footballer.
The two had some conflicts before the start of the season. The Chilean believed that Riquelme should work harder as the core of the team, but the Argentine star did not want to live an ascetic training life.
Under the mediation of the club's senior management, the two finally eased up, but this game made the situation tense again.
In another focus match at the same time, Barcelona played against Celta Vigo at Camp Nou, but they scored two goals at the end of halftime.
This situation made the fans of the home team very dissatisfied, especially when they learned that Real Madrid had a big lead. Fortunately, in the second half, Eto'o, Deco, and Messi made successive contributions to help the team achieve a reversal.
Although they won the game, Barcelona's performance still received a lot of criticism. "Daily Sports" believed that Ronaldinho was immersed in the drunken nightclub again, so that he sleepwalked throughout the game.
"Perhaps the club management should consider giving up the Brazilian completely. Messi can definitely become the new core of the team."
...
Although the outside world praised Real Madrid, Schuster maintained sufficient reason. He knew that the team had many weak links, such as the defense in the midfield.
So he sternly warned the players not to get carried away, "Our goal is very clear, the league championship, the Champions League to break through the top 16, and now we are still far away from them."
The match against Levante in the second round of La Liga just verified his concerns. Since there was still a Champions League group match in the middle of the week, Schuster rotated some of the main players, and Wang Feng was also placed on the bench.
Levante was born out of Valencia's grassroots team. There have been superstars such as Di Stefano and Mijatovic in history. Even Cruyff played here in the early days of his debut.
But they have long lost their former glory. They have been in the second division of the league all the year round, and they were promoted to the first division with the third place last year.
Faced with such a newly promoted team, Real Madrid's substitute lineup still played very hard. While the offense was frustrated, there were also problems in defense. It even allowed the little-known Olivier Capo to score the first goal.
The Ivorian striker made his debut in Ligue 1 Auxerre and once joined Juventus, but was soon loaned to Monaco because he couldn't adapt to the high intensity of Serie A, and this season he was loaned to Levante.
Looking at Capo who was celebrating wildly, Schuster turned livid and called on the players on the field to increase their attention, but the effect was not obvious. Real Madrid's substitute lineup is too short!
The second half failed to bring the situation back. Wang Feng was very worried. He kept looking at Schuster, and finally heard his angry voice: "Wang, get ready to warm up."
In the 65th minute, Wang Feng finally came on as a substitute. His appearance made the Levante players very nervous and stepped up their marking efforts, but the performance of the Chinese superstar could not be restrained.
After playing for only four minutes, he took advantage of the continuous shaking in the frontcourt, then suddenly accelerated to get rid of it and then volleyed, almost breaking through the home team's goal, and the ball bounced off the post.
He then created another corner, this time after the ball went into the penalty area, Bravo took the first place, but his header was blocked by Levante defender Alexis on the line. Go up and clear.
In the 74th minute, Wang Feng made a comeback. He forcibly broke through the Levante full-back Manolo on the right side and then crossed the penalty area~www.mtlnovel.com~Mecia, who was inserted in the penalty area, broke through Caballero's handle with a toe shot door.
1:1! Real Madrid finally equalized the score!
At the 82nd minute, Wang Feng attacked in the middle. He distributed the ball to Reyes on the right and quickly rushed into the penalty area, and Reyes sent a pass at the same time as if he had made an appointment.
Wang Feng's spectacular play continued to impact Real Madrid's fortunes, leading them to a comeback against Levante. His crucial goal and assist showcased his influence on the pitch.
Meanwhile, in the second round, Barcelona managed to regain their form with a 3-0 victory against Osasuna. Messi's scoring streak continued, but Ronaldinho remained sidelined.
As the La Liga standings took shape after two rounds, only Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Valencia secured complete victories, with Wang Feng claiming the top spot on the league scorer list. The competition was heating up early in the season.
