Soccer: The Road to Extraordinary

Chapter 488 The best start in history
Having achieved the first victory, everyone is clear about their own strength.This has greatly improved their self-confidence.

After a rest and retraining to prepare for the game, the Granada team ushered in their second opponent in the new season.

This time the opponent is Valencia.Valencia has long been a mid-tier team in La Liga.In the new season, they didn't have any big money, so naturally their strength didn't change much.

The second round of La Liga is no longer the home of Granada.Away game, this is a more difficult test for the Granada team.

The Granada team lived up to expectations and they won again.It is still 2:0.
This time it was Sander and Mahrez who scored the goals.

Sander's goal was still a single shot by Modric.He handled it calmly and didn't let the opportunity pass by.

And Mahrez's goal will be a bit difficult.However, the initiator of the attack was Modric.First, a precise long pass close to the ground made it easy for Mahrez to get to the bottom.

After hitting the bottom line, Mahrez relied on his personal technical ability to forcibly break into the penalty area from near the bottom line.After passing two people in a row, he scored from a small angle in the small penalty area.

Another 2:0 victory.This time the fans were less critical.After all, it is an away game, and the Valencia team is not a weak team.Being able to beat the home team 2:0 is naturally different in difficulty compared to 2:0 at home.Therefore, in the eyes of the fans, this is also an improvement.

"2:0, although not as good as 3:0, but the victory over the opponent, the process of the game is also very good. This is still very satisfying."

"Haha, money is the same thing. Looking at last season, it was difficult to score a goal. In the first half, I often conceded the ball, and I always waited until the second half to try to recover or overtake. Look now, the first half 1 The goal is leading, and another goal in the second half seals the victory. Such a scene is reassuring."

Compared with the performance of last season, the fans feel more relieved.

"Granada is like a different team. Look how beautiful the offense is. With Modric, it is different. Haha, I like the current Granada team."

"Look at our offensive players, cutting tofu against the defense, smashing the opponent's defense. It feels good. I love these sharp offensive guys."

In just two games, Granada's frontcourt offense, which has been updated at a high price, has become extremely sharp.Fans are constantly praising the attacking players up front.They all said it was worth the money.

As the offense has improved and the pressure on the backcourt has decreased, defensive players such as Yan Feng will naturally no longer be so brilliant.Compared with previous seasons, Yan Feng's bald head was completely covered by his teammates.

Of course, Yan Feng doesn't care whether he is in the limelight or not.He's happy with the ease now.After all, in the final analysis, his main job is the defensive midfielder and defense.Often stepping forward to show the limelight is also forced to be helpless.

After an away win over Valencia, Granada returned home.A few days later, they started the third game of the new season.

In the third round of La Liga, the Granada team played at home against the Eibar team from afar.

The Eibar team is not a strong opponent, and they barely relegated last season.This season, they were listed as a member of the relegation zone by the outside world.

Such an opponent is still at Granada's home court, and the result is naturally predictable.Granada won easily.

In the game against Eibar, Granada finally scored an extra goal this time from the expectations of the fans. 3:0.

The first goal came from Lin Fan in the first half and then cut inside and scored.This ball is still very exciting.Quick and accurate penetration of short passes, reasonable movement, and well-timed passes.There is also a good belt and foot feel.This ball reflects the good state of Lin Fan and Modric.

The second goal was Sandor.This time it was no longer a single shot from Modric.Instead, through the cooperation of everyone, Mahrez made a pass from the bottom, and Sandel in the middle succeeded in grabbing a point.

The third goal was scored by Modric.He scored his first goal since coming to Granada.There was nothing special about the way he scored, he just scored from a direct free-kick.But it came in beautifully.

In this third game against the Eibar team, the Granada team showed a better state and cooperation than the previous two games.The atmosphere of the whole team has also become better.

So far, the Granada team has won all the first three games of the new season.

Three consecutive victories, not only scoring as many as 7 goals, but also not conceding a goal.It couldn't have been a more perfect start.

This is the best start in the history of the Granada team.

And the most obvious point that this best start brought to the Granada team is that it occupied the top spot in La Liga for the first time in history.

Three consecutive victories will bring 9 points.Although the Barcelona team also achieved three consecutive victories, their winning goals are just a little bit worse.Compared with the 7 goals scored by the Granada team, the Barcelona team scored one more.But they conceded 3 goals.This allowed Granada to overwhelm Barcelona for the first time with a goal difference advantage.

The outside world's evaluation of La Liga this season is that the tripartite confrontation will be a more cruel and tragic season.

The other side of La Liga, Real Madrid, didn't start so well.After losing Modric, although Kroos replaced him, he failed to play the role Modric played.

The organization is far inferior to the Real Madrid team of last season. In the first three games, they only achieved two wins and one draw.

If such a result is placed on other teams, it is definitely a good result worthy of celebration.But they are Real Madrid, so the result is naturally not ideal.

Compared with Granada and Barcelona, ​​both of which have won three consecutive victories, Real Madrid is much bleak this time.Therefore, in the standings, they are temporarily in third place behind by 2 points.

"See? This is the latest Granada team. Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​​​are just behind them now."

"It seems that this season is really three-legged. This year's championship is really hard to say. Look at the state of the Granada team, if it can be maintained for a long time. Maybe this time, Real Madrid and Barcelona are very likely to miss the championship .”

"The momentum of the Granada team is fierce! They are really running for the championship. And seeing the strength they have shown, this will be the strongest championship challenger between Real Madrid and Barcelona in recent years. The Granada team leads The threat is far greater than Atletico Madrid!"

When the three games passed, many media felt that the Granada team was really capable of winning the championship.Compared with last season, Granada scored a good result and still be questioned, this is really a world of difference!
