Chapter 443: Derby is not far away

The duel of the La Liga giants in the King's Cup final! Since the start of the season, the competition between the two teams in various fields has not stopped, whether it's the league, cup matches, or the Champions League, they seem evenly matched.

For this reason, the media is divided into two camps. Some people believe that one of the teams will inevitably overpower the other, thus reaping all the honors. At present, it seems that Real Madrid has the advantage.

However, another group of people disagrees. They feel that even gods cannot do everything, and the two teams should make choices and selectively give up certain competitions.

But Real Madrid and Barcelona obviously do not want to give up the achievements within reach. Both teams are exerting their efforts on multiple fronts. In the 26th round of La Liga, the galactic battleship faced Atletico Madrid at home.

Due to the battle with Sevilla three days ago, most of Real Madrid's main players were rotated in this match. In the 23rd minute of the first half, the city rival took advantage of a loophole and forward Aguero broke the deadlock.

Before the start of the second half, head coach Schuster decisively sent Wang Feng and Sneijder onto the field, intending to go all out for victory! At such a critical moment, every game cannot afford to make mistakes.

And the two did not disappoint the coaching staff's trust. In the 64th minute, Sneijder dribbled the ball into the frontcourt from the center, then sent a precise lob pass into the heart of Atletico Madrid's defense. Wang Feng resisted the defenders and volleyed to equalize.

In the 79th minute, the Chinese superstar dribbled on the right, swayed past the defender Perea, attracted the defense to focus on himself, and then passed the ball back to Sneijder outside the penalty area. Sneijder volleyed it powerfully into the net, piercing the goalkeeper Coupet's fingers.

Ultimately, with the mutual assistance of the two, Real Madrid won 2-1 at home against Atletico Madrid. In another match, Barcelona also defeated Athletic Bilbao 2-1, intensifying the race for the league title between the two teams.

On March 11th, Anfield Stadium welcomed the imposing galactic battleship. The Reds suffered a disastrous defeat in the first leg of the knockout stage, but returning to home turf, many fans still believed that miracles could happen.

However, Real Madrid, with a firm grasp of the situation, launched a fierce attack as soon as they arrived, turning the tables. The warning "This is Anfield" seemed to have no pressure on the visiting team players. So what if it's Anfield? The galactic battleship will only turn it into its own territory!

In the 13th minute, Diarra advanced to the midfield and passed the ball to Robben on the right front. The Dutchman intended to attack along the sideline, but Wang Feng had already withdrawn and asked for the ball, so he passed it.

Receiving the ball, Wang Feng turned to face Mascherano. The Chinese superstar made a big flick with his right foot and leaned heavily to the right. Mascherano's first reaction was to block with his foot.

But unexpectedly, Wang Feng suddenly pulled the ball back to the front from the right side. Even under such a large inertia, the ball still stuck tightly to his foot.

Then he lightly poked with his left foot, just breaking through Mascherano's other side. Fans in the stands and in front of the TV felt that the Chinese superstar had escaped from the defense in an instant, and Mascherano seemed as clumsy as a pole.

Approaching the edge of the penalty area and facing the defender Carragher, Wang Feng quickly flicked the ball, easily changed direction during high-speed movement to avoid interception, and then charged into Liverpool's territory.

Facing the goalkeeper and several defenders, he seized the opportunity to send a low shot just before the final siege, the ball slipping through Reina's diving hands and rolling into the net.

"Goooooooooooooooooooal! The goal is in! Wang Feng strikes Liverpool again!"

"A wonderful breakthrough and shot, and the attacking speed is very fast, from receiving the ball in the front court to the final shot and scoring, it took only a dozen seconds."

"Now the total score between the two teams has been widened to 5-0! I think Liverpool should bid farewell to this season's Champions League."

"Let's review the whole process of the goal again. Wang Feng actively asked for the ball in the front court, Mascherano looked too silly, Wang Feng passed him like crossing a road in the morning."

"Carra's defense was in place, but unfortunately too close. A slight change of direction was enough to shake him off. But this is also inevitable because the edge of the penalty area is within Wang Feng's optimal shooting range. If he doesn't block in time and let him shoot comfortably, it will probably result in a goal."

"This is the most tricky part of the Chinese superstar. His shooting range can reach 25 meters or even farther, and if you defend up close, you'll get dribbled past; if you don't, he'll shoot directly. It's simply unsolvable!"

After scoring this goal, the melody of "You'll Never Walk Alone" sounded at Anfield Stadium, but at this moment it seemed extremely bleak and desolate. Many rational fans had already left early, leaving only a few die-hard fans to witness the last moment.

But they did not see Liverpool rise again, even if it was just a beautiful counterattack or a trivial goal.

In the 69th minute of the second half, Robben crossed from the edge of the penalty area, Wang Feng successfully bypassed the offside trap and shot from inside the penalty area, but his shot was saved by goalkeeper Reina. Before the home fans could breathe a sigh of relief, Raul suddenly rushed in for a follow-up shot, making it 2-0!

This was also the final score of the match. With a total score of 6-0 over two legs, Real Madrid swept Liverpool aside and advanced to the Champions League quarter-finals.

This result caught most people by surprise. They generally believed that the galactic battleship could cross the hurdle of the Reds, but it wouldn't be easy, at least it would require two tough battles.

Sky Sports UK stated that Liverpool has been kicked out of the shadow by Real Madrid, and facing their players is like sleepwalking and clueless. It may take several years to overcome this unfavorable situation.

The Times believed that Liverpool's dismal defeat was due to the lack of a solid backbone in the team. Torres was overestimated, not to mention comparing with Wang Feng, even compared with the new generation of Ronaldo and Messi, he falls far short.

"In today's world football, Merro has become the epitome of a standard superstar, while Wang Feng stands above everyone else, and the pyramid structure of strength is gradually taking shape."

After all the matches in the round of 16 of the Champions League ended, a new lineup for the quarter-finals emerged. This time, La Liga did not fall behind, with a total of three teams entering: Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Villarreal.

Similarly, three Premier League teams also advanced, namely Manchester United, Arsenal, and Chelsea, while the other two teams were Porto from the Portuguese Primeira Liga and Bayern Munich from the Bundesliga.

Yes, Bayern Munich has returned to the top eight of the European stage, and the credit can be attributed to the Oriental Genius who participated in the Champions League group stage for the first time. In the six rounds of the group stage, he contributed 1 goal and 3 assists in 3 starts and 2 substitutions, helping the team top the group.

And in the series against Lisbon Athletic in the round of 16, the Chinese star scored twice at home, making his name resound throughout the Allianz Arena.

After both teams advanced, domestic media reports poured in, with many people looking forward to the occurrence of the Chinese derby. This is an absolute showdown between the main forces!

Unfortunately, the situation left them somewhat disappointed. Real Madrid's opponent is Arsenal, and Bayern Munich needs to face Barcelona head-on. "Encountering the cosmic Barcelona this time, it seems that our chances are slim," Dong Zhuo said somewhat frustrated over the phone.

"This is not necessarily the case. Bayern Munich has never been afraid of Barcelona in history. How can we be timid before the battle?" Wang Feng comforted, "Besides, I'm still looking forward to our derby."
