<h4>Chapter 363: La Liga melee</h4>


    When Wang Feng continued his brilliant performance, another Spanish powerhouse Barcelona suffered a dismal 0-0 draw away to Santander Athletic.


    Henry also appeared in this game but still couldn''t change the situation. Barcelona dominated possession absolutely, ying their passing game to perfection but failed to score a goal.


    Barcelona''s newly appointed coach Guardi was widely questioned by the media for this. The former "Dream Team" yer retired just over a year ago, and he only obtained his coaching certificate not long ago.


    Originally, the club''s senior management wanted him to take over the Barcelona Athletic team first to hone his skills. But they couldn''t find a first-team coach all summer, and the situation was too difficult!


    There were already few well-known coaches sitting idle at home. As soon as they heard that Barcelona was hiring, they shook their heads one after another. This job was not easy. Not only did they face the rebuilding of the club, but they also had to deal with Wang Feng in his peak state, which was quite tricky.


    In desperation, Laporta could only choose to promote Guardi. After all, he was from the Barcelona lineage, and as a transitional option, it was also a good choice.


    After watching Barcelona''s first-round match on TV, he was not disappointed but rather pleasantly surprised. It could be seen that Guardi was a very thoughtful person, and perhaps he could really train a strong team, provided he was given enough time and patience.


    In the second round of La Liga, Real Madrid challenged Virreal away. Earlier this year, they parted ways with the former Argentine genius Riquelme, but it didn''t affect the team''s strength. They even achieved an eight-game winning streak at one point.


    In the summer transfer window, their top scorer Fran joined Atletico Madrid for 21 million euros. With this transfer fee, the Yellow Submarine signed Rossi, an Italian, and kept Tomassen, who was on loan from Stuttgart.


    In addition, Virreal also signed three other quality yers: French young international Mavuba, Spanish international Capdev, and Uruguayan defender Godin, all of whom were cost-effective signings.


    In the first round, they defeated Valencia 3-0 away, shocking all Spanish media. This time, facing the Gxy battleship at home, they also caused a lot of trouble for the Spanish powerhouses.


    In the first half, the Gxy battleship felt the vitality and fighting spirit of the home team. The energy burst out by this young lineup was astonishing, although the away team had the advantage in possession, they couldn''t score.


    At the end of the first half, the score was still 0-0. In the 69th minute of the second half, the Yellow Submarine broke through Casis''s goal with a free-kickbination.


    Subsequently, the Gxy battleshipunched a fierce attack. Wang Feng sessively assisted Raúl and Robben, but both failed to seize the opportunity. Just before the final whistle, he received a pass from Guti and took a shot with his right foot, narrowly missing the post.


    In the end, Real Madrid regretted at the Ceramic Stadium, suffering their first league defeat. This match once again made fans and the media feel thepetitiveness of the Yellow Submarine this season. They may have the opportunity to break the monopoly of Real Madrid and Barcelona on the league title.


    After the match, Real Madrid coach Schuster said in an interview that he was very sorry for the defeat. The team created many opportunities but failed to capitalize on them. "Pellegrini has undoubtedly inspired the yers'' potential, and they deserve such a victory."


    But at the same time, he also said that the league had just begun, and the goal of the Gxy battleship this season was still to aim for defending the championship without wavering. "With continuous integration of the lineup, I believe we will get better and better."


    In the second round, Barcelona hosted Athletic Bilbao at the Camp Nou. This time, they did not miss the opportunity, relying on Eto''o''s brace and Henry''s assist to Messi to win 3-1.


    In the third round of La Liga, Real Madrid returned to the Bernabeu to face newly promoted Almeria. For this match, the coaching staff issued a stern order to the yers: they must win all three points!


    The Gxy battleshipunched a full-scale attack from the beginning of the game. "It seems that the defeat in thest round has put considerable pressure on the entire Real Madrid team. They are determined to bounce back in this match."


    "Look at this attack. Robben receives Guti''s diagonal pass and dribbles the ball towards the wing. Beautiful! A change of direction to shake off the 18th Asastine and cut inside into the penalty area."


    "Pass to Wang Feng, shot! Goooooooooooooooooal! The ball is in! Just 2 minutes into the game, Real Madrid takes the lead, 1-0!"


    "Robben tears open the Almeria defense with his speed and dribbling skills, then passes to Wang Feng, who squeezes past defender Audis and shoots with his right foot to score!"


    "This is a goal-scoring opportunity created by the Dutch winger. It can be seen that his form has been improving since joining Real Madrid, and the former king of Eindhoven has returned!"


    The turbulent experience at Chelsea has made this genius star subject to much scrutiny. Many fans were not optimistic about this transfer when he joined Real Madrid, believing that he would drag down Wang Feng''s performance.


    But sinceing to the Bernabeu, his teammates have trusted him very much, especially Wang Feng. Not only did he quickly ept him into the team, but he also often invited him to train together and think of new ways to cooperate.


    The harmonious atmosphere in the dressing room surprised and pleased Robben. He became more certain that joining Real Madrid was the right choice, and Wang Feng could lead the team to create a better history!


    After taking the lead, the yers of the Gxy battleship obviously rxed a bit and yed more freely on the field, naturally improving their form.


    In the 24th minute, Diarra carried the ball in midfield, waiting for his teammates to position themselves. He then sent a straight pass into the Almeria territory, and Wang Feng quickly started a counterattack.


    Under high-speed sprinting, he suddenly made a quick stop and turn near the baseline, instantly shaking off the defending yers beside him. Then, he used a delicate touch to pass the ball to Raúl in the distance.


    At this moment, Almeria goalkeeper Diego was positioned very close to Wang Feng, guarding against the Chinese superstar''s shot. But he chose to pass the ball, leaving a nearly unguarded goal in front of the Spanish forward. Raúl gently pushed the ball into the with his right foot.


    2-0! The Gxy battleship adds another goal!
