Another six-goal performance!
After Real Madrid thrashed Granada 9–1 at home with Yang Yang scoring six goals, the match quickly sparked heated discussion among fans worldwide.
No one had expected that after scoring a hat-trick against Barcelona, Yang Yang would still be in such outstanding form. The two-week National Team match day had not affected him in the slightest. If anything, he was even better than he had been against Barcelona.
Marca and AS both broke the news that because the National Team's warm-up matches were not high-level, Yang Yang had not been included in the National Team squad. Yet throughout those two weeks, he had remained disciplined, training at Valdebebas every day. That was what had allowed him to reach such a crazy level of form against Granada.
So far, Yang Yang had scored forty-seven goals in La Liga. With nine rounds remaining, given his current scoring form, he had every chance of breaking last season's record of sixty goals and setting a new historical La Liga record.
If Real Madrid had received a wave of praise after such a dominant victory, Barcelona's situation was much more worrying.
Two weeks later, Barcelona visited Celta Vigo, and the entire team fell into a slump.
Messi, who had mistakenly been reported before the match as suffering a serious injury, suddenly appeared in the starting lineup. However, the Argentine turned in a poor performance throughout the match, while left-back Alba missed the game through injury.
Louis Enrique's team failed to produce the attack they should have had away from home. In the end, they relied on a corner, with Mathieu scoring to secure three points by the narrowest of margins.
At the post-match press conference, Enrique himself openly admitted that it had been extremely difficult for the team to win. Those
