After the national team match, the players returned to the team one after another to continue the club's league journey.
Facing the fierce FIFA virus, Depor's condition is even worse this time.
Their bench depth is limited, and many young substitute players have also participated in the national team's youth team games. Their physical fitness has declined seriously. In the next league game, Depor will once again be out of the lineup.
In the 11th round of La Liga, Depor faced the challenge of Real Sociedad at home.
Last season Real Sociedad only ranked 11th in the league, just in the middle of the pack, but this season Real Sociedad has experienced a big explosion!
In the current La Liga standings, Depor ranks first, followed by Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, and Real Sociedad ranks fifth!
Real Sociedad's performance this season is very eye-catching, and the brightest star in their team forms the central axis of the team.
Goalkeeper Bravo is the team's number one defensive end this season. Real Sociedad's number of goals conceded this season ranks third in La Liga, and Real Sociedad's defense players are mediocre. Their biggest reliance is Bravo. The 28-year-old Chilean goalkeeper is currently one of the hottest goalkeepers in La Liga. In the parallel world of later generations, Bravo was poached by Barcelona in 2014, and was later taken to Manchester City by Guardiola, completely becoming one of the world's top goalkeepers.
Midfielder Illarramendi is the core of the team's midfield. The 22-year-old Spanish teenager is a youth training product of Real Sociedad and has had a big breakout this season. He is equally good at interception and passing, and his performance on both offense and defense is very eye-catching. He is the absolute core of the team. In the parallel world of later generations, he will be poached by Real Madrid in the summer of 2013 and start his journey to the rich.
Forward Griezmann, the team's leading scorer. The 21-year-old French forward is also a product of Real Sociedad's youth training. With his excellent ball protection, passing and shooting abilities, he has helped Real Sociedad to overwhelm the city. So far, he has scored 6 goals, There are also 4 assists. As a young man who is just starting out, this result is already outstanding.
Many of Deportivo's main players were absent in this game, including Wu Lei, Berbatov, Ronaldo, Pogba, Castro, Maicon, Balzaretti...
On the offensive line today, only Riquelme, Belleron and Irving are the three main players, and the rest are all young players.
However, what made Yun Sheng chat better was that Zhang Linpeng, who was suspended from the national team, was full of energy and made his debut in this game.
This game was a back and forth between the two sides, and the game was extremely fierce.
In the 23rd minute of the game, Riquelme and Belleron had consecutive midfield one-twos, and finally Riquelme took a powerful long-range shot from outside the penalty area, and the ball hit the dead center!
1 to 0! Depor scores the first goal!
But within ten minutes, Real Sociedad also got a great opportunity.
This time it was Illarramendi's continuous dribbling in the midfield. After passing two Depor defenders, he went straight to Griezmann!
The French genius calmly stabbed the ball in the penalty area and the ball hit the net!
1 to 1! Real Sociedad quickly equalized the score!
After the equalizer, Real Sociedad was getting better and better. In the 41st minute of the game, Illarramendi once again organized an attack in the midfield. This time it was Griezmann who also received the ball. He directly chose to lob from the left side of the penalty area. shoot!
Alan Subia was positioned too far forward and he couldn't make the save!
2 to 1! Griezmann scored twice and Real Sociedad took the lead!
Diego in the live broadcast room shook his head repeatedly: "Half of Depor's main players did not appear today. Their strength is not comparable to that of Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. Is Depor's first defeat of the season going to be today?"
With such doubts, the players ended the first half.
However, at the beginning of the second half, Depor players told everyone with their wonderful performance that it is absolutely impossible to defeat Depor today!
During a midfield pass, Riquelme was surrounded by the opponent, and another core player, Belleron, solved the problem.
While dribbling the ball forward, he passed a through ball to the young star Domingos in front of him. Domingos broke into the penalty area and knocked back near the baseline. Owen easily pushed the ball into the net!
2 to 2! Just five minutes into the second half, Depor equalized the score!
In the following time, players from both sides worked hard. Everyone hoped to win the game and get three points. Looking at the situation of both sides in this game, everyone had the possibility of winning.
Illarramendi and Griezmann's successive cooperation frequently threatened Depor's goal. Alan Subbia was in poor condition today. If it weren't for Zhang Linpeng's stable performance, Depor would have fallen behind again.
It wasn't until the 86th minute of the game that the score was rewritten again.
Just after the two sides made continuous substitution adjustments, Riquelme seized the time for the opponent's substitute players to adapt and played an extremely wonderful cooperation!
"Riquelme controlled the ball in the midfield. This time he did not move forward easily. Cai Huikang stepped forward to protect him."
"All three midfielders gathered around, denying Riquelme the chance to play the ball and advance forward. Belleron was also suppressed by the opponent's defensive midfielder and left back, and the chance to receive the ball was not very good."
"The defensive player made a tackle! Riquelme protected the ball and turned around! He shook off two defensive players at once!"
"Riquelme played the ball! A long pass to the ground! Owen quickly stepped in! The England forward got a chance to stand alone!"
"Shoot the far corner from the penalty area line! The ball went in!!!"
"At the end of the game, Riquelme and Owen had an excellent pass-and-run combination that penetrated Real Sociedad's defense!"
"Riquelme's ball protection and passing are top-notch in the world! Owen's instant start and final kick are still the same as when he was young!"
"The combination of the last classical master in the world and the English teenager is invincible and full of sparks!"
"3 to 2! Owen scored the winning goal, and Depor was less than five minutes away from a three-pointer!"
The home team fans in the stands cheered loudly and excitedly, their palms turning red. This winning goal was not only beautiful, but also extremely crucial!
General Depor on the side of the court was also excited and hugged each other tightly!
However, despite being happy, Yun Sheng also responded immediately.
He played his last card and replaced veteran Belleron with Gattuso, whose physical fitness was severely reduced, forming a master-disciple double midfielder to strengthen the defensive hardness.
Gattuso rushed to the court and shouted at Cai Huikang: "Our master and apprentice are on the court at the same time. Even if Ronaldo and Messi join forces, they will still be finished!"
Cai Huikang clenched his fists, stared at his eager opponent, and vowed to defend the victory!
In the last five minutes, Real Sociedad fought hard.
Whether it was the offensive line led by Illarramendi and Griezmann, or the midfield and backfield players, they all pressed forward with all their strength, striving for the opportunity to find a perfect tie.
Under the joint defense of Gattuso and Cai Huikang, the situation was extremely intense after five minutes. Both of them received a yellow card.
However, they successfully completed the task assigned by Yun Sheng!
The referee's whistle sounded and the game was over!
Depor defeated Real Sociedad 3-2 with difficulty, and their league winning streak continues!
