Chapter 451: Equaling the Legend
After returning to Spain from Germany, Barcelona ushered in the 26th round of La Liga at the weekend.
Barcelona will face Deportivo La Coruna at home.
In order to save strength for the Champions League in midweek, Rijkaard rotated players such as Messi, but Barcelona still took the lead at the start.
When Su Dong broke through with the ball, he caused the opponent's defender to foul and won a free kick opportunity in the frontcourt. Ronaldinho took the penalty himself and scored the first goal for Barcelona.
But Deportivo La Coruña is not one to be bullied. They quickly counterattacked. Sergio made a cross from the right, but Puyol made a mistake in clearing the ball with his head, and the opponent seized the opportunity to equalize the score.
Eight minutes later, Sylvinho made a cross from the left, Sudong headed the ball back in the penalty area, and Iniesta followed up and shot directly, once again increasing the score to 2-1!
Five minutes later, Deportivo La Coruna equalized the score again. This was a free kick opportunity in the front court. Portuguese central defender Andrade scored with a header, tying the score for Super Deportivo La Coruna, 2-2! But in the 34th minute, Barcelona got a corner kick opportunity. Ronaldinho accurately kicked the corner kick to the middle of the penalty area. Su Dong jumped high and headed the ball like a scallion pulling up from dry land, helping Barcelona to surpass the score again, 3-2! After the second half, in the 57th minute, Edmilson sent a long pass from the backcourt. After Su Dong stopped the ball on the left side of the frontcourt, he waded into the penalty area and passed it to the back point. Giuly, who followed up, easily pushed the ball into the goal, 4-2!
Four minutes later, there was another corner kick. After Ronaldinho took the kick, there was chaos in the penalty area. As a result, no one could get the ball, including the goalkeeper who went out to attack. Instead, Su Dong, who was lurking at the back point, easily headed the ball into the empty goal, making it 5-2!
Barcelona finally defeated Super Laco 5-2 thanks to Sudong's two goals and won three points again.

Three days later, in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16, Barcelona will face Lyon at home.
In the first leg between the two sides, Barcelona defeated Lyon 3-0 away and almost secured the qualification in advance, but playing at home, Barcelona still dared not be careless.
After the opening, Lyon took the initiative and launched a fierce attack on Barcelona.
But in the 25th minute, Deco assisted Ronaldinho to score the first goal, securing the victory for Barcelona.
Later, Mohamed Diarra scored a header from a corner kick to equalize for Lyon.
But after the second half, Su Dong first assisted Ronaldinho to score, and then Su Dong himself scored a goal.
In the end, Barcelona defeated Lyon 3-1 at home and advanced to the quarterfinals with a total score of 6-1.
…
In another game, the resignation of President Florentino did not awaken the Real Madrid players.
Although the Galacticos defeated the Colchoneros 2-1 at home in the Madrid derby, they did not play at their best away from home in the Champions League life-and-death battle in the middle of the week, and ended up drawing with Arsenal 0-0.
Due to a 0-1 home defeat in the first leg, Real Madrid was once again eliminated in the round of 16 of the Champions League.
This is the third consecutive year that Real Madrid has been eliminated in the round of 16 of the Champions League.
The Galacticos, which was full of superstars, ultimately failed in the face of current stars such as Henry and Pires, and young rookies such as Fabregas and Reyes, and left the Champions League with regret.
From the high ambitions at the beginning of the season to the subsequent ups and downs, and then to the resignation of the president, everyone is wondering what went wrong with this Real Madrid team? Why did such a strong team on paper end up playing like this?
Although the superstar's strength has declined, no matter how much it has declined, it will not fall to this point.
…
The day after the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 knockout matches, UEFA held a draw ceremony at its headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.
All eight teams that entered the Champions League quarterfinals were shuffled for the draw, and there was no same-country circumvention principle this time.
Barcelona's luck is still bad as they drew AC Milan from Serie A.
The champion and runner-up teams of last season meet again, which is definitely an exciting dialogue between the two strong teams.
Even until now, many people still talk about the big reversal in last season's Champions League final, and many people feel sorry for AC Milan. Now, UEFA's draw has given them a chance.
After the results came out, AC Milan's stars began to accept media interviews, publicly expressing their satisfaction with the draw results and looking forward to avenging their loss in last season's Champions League final against Barcelona.
Ancelotti also vowed, "This time we will step on Barcelona's corpse to reach the semi-finals!"

This weekend, in the 27th round of La Liga, Barcelona will challenge Osasuna away.
Having just experienced a series of fierce battles, Barcelona is physically and mentally exhausted, while Osasuna is conserving its energy and waiting for the opportunity.
This team, which once occupied the second place in the La Liga standings for a long time, has recently seen its performance decline and has dropped to fourth place, but Osasuna is also fighting very hard to maintain its qualification for the Champions League.
The out-of-form Barcelona players made mistakes shortly after the start of the game.
During one attack, Valdez accidentally dropped the ball after grabbing it from mid-air.
This resulted in Osasuna attacking midfielder Valdo getting the ball and facing the empty goal directly.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Marcos Senna made a timely sliding tackle and blocked Waldo's shot with his body, blocking the ball and preventing the opponent from scoring.
After that, Osasuna frequently used counterattacks to threaten Barcelona's goal.
In the 59th minute of the second half, Waldo made a straight pass, Marcos Senna slid in the penalty area and intercepted the ball before striker Milosevic. There was not even any physical contact between the two sides. It was simply Milosevic who couldn't control his momentum and fell in the penalty area.
As a result, the referee imposed the death penalty without hesitation. Not only did he send Marcos Senna off with a red card, he also awarded the opponent a penalty kick.
This immediately caused strong protests from Barcelona players.
Milosevic's performance was too much! However, Osasuna still took the lead temporarily with a score of one to zero thanks to a penalty kick.
…
One player was sent off with a red card and a penalty was conceded, which only aroused Barcelona's anger.
After the restart, although Barcelona was one man short, they still launched a fierce attack on Osasuna.
The players began to unite as one, sharing the same hatred for the enemy.
Especially Ronaldinho and Su Dong in the frontcourt, they were more active.
In the 72nd minute, after Ronaldinho got the ball, he sent a straight pass behind him from the left rib. Su Dong quickly inserted himself and successfully made an offside. After catching up with the ball on the left side of the penalty area, he shot directly with his left foot.
The ball went straight into Osasuna’s goal, equalizing the score for Barcelona! “GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!”
"Su Dong scored a goal!!!"
"In the 72nd minute, please remember this great moment. In the 72nd minute, Su Dong scored a historic goal!"
"This is Su Dong's 38th La Liga goal this season, which ties him with the single-season league goal record of two legendary players, Sara and Sanchez!"
"In just 27 rounds, Su Dong has scored 38 goals. We have every reason to believe that this season Su Dong still has a chance to create a new league goal record in La Liga!"
After Su Dong scored a goal, he rushed out of the stadium to celebrate. He then went around to the visiting team's coaching seat and high-fived and hugged Rijkaard, Ten Cate, and Messi on the bench.
Finally, he was hugged tightly by Ronaldinho who came running over.
"It was a very memorable goal, but also a very difficult one."
"From the slow-motion replay just now, we can see that Marcos Senna's red card was indeed controversial. He had no contact with Milosevic. We can only say that Milosevic's performance was so realistic that he fooled the referee."
"Barcelona played more actively with ten players, and Su Dong finally seized the opportunity and scored his 38th La Liga goal of the season, tying the single-season league goal record set by Mexican legend Sanchez at Real Madrid 16 years ago."
"Let us remember this time, this night, and this person!"
"At only 21 years old, Su Dong has already tied the two legends in La Liga history!"
"And we have every reason to believe that with eleven rounds left in the league, Su Dong will have a chance to set a new goal record, which will be a new height that will be even more difficult for future generations to surpass!"
…………
…………
Su Dong scored the 38th goal in La Liga! This news spread all over the world immediately after the game, especially in Spain and European football, where it caused a huge response.
You know, so far this season, among the many shooters in the four major leagues, no scorer has scored more than thirty goals, which makes Su Dong stand out among the many scorers.
He has scored 38 goals in just 27 rounds, and his goal efficiency is far higher than in the past two seasons.
Daily Sports analyzed Su Dong's 38 goals so far and believed that Ronaldinho, Messi and Iniesta were Su Dong's favorite teammates because they gave him the most assists, as did Deco and the injured Xavi.
It can be said that it is precisely because he has such a group of excellent assists around him that Su Dong can attack and capture the city in the frontcourt and score goals like a tide.
Not only that, the Daily Sports also analyzed the data of the trident of Ronaldinho, Sudon and Messi, combined with their performance on the court, and believed that this is the sharpest offensive trident in the history of Barcelona, La Liga, and even European football.
"These three players have performed fantastically in attack, forming a formidable attacking combination that also allows Barcelona to play beautiful attacking football."
Mundo Deportivo believes that Barcelona's possession of such a trident is a guarantee for achieving outstanding results this season.
"We have every reason to believe that under the leadership of the trident of Su Dong, Ronaldinho and Messi, Barcelona will establish a new peak dynasty. They will bring more exciting and more offensive artistic football to the fans!"
The whole world is looking forward to it, waiting for Su Dong to score his 39th goal!
