Two hundred and ninetieth chapters can not afford to lose
Atletico Madrid, which has recovered its form, did not give Vallecano any chance in the next second leg of the Copa REE quarterfinal.
Although they tied with Vallecano in the first round, after returning to home, Atletico Madrid, which had been rotated, defeated Vallecano 3-0, and advanced to the quarterfinals of the Copa REU with a total score of 3:1.
Their opponent in the quarterfinals will be Vigo Celta.
What a coincidence, it was the Vigo Celta they just defeated 3:0.
After the next round of the league, it will be the King's Cup.
The schedule is very intensive.
At this time, Wu Lei had already participated in the franchise ceremony with Espanyol, but he had not yet played for Espanyol.
It seems as the domestic media and some fans speculated that Wu Lei could not play in the game once he went to Espanyol, and there are still many places he needs to adapt to.
During this period, the focus of Chinese media reports was also Wu Lei. There were fewer Chinese journalists outside the Atletico Madrid Mahada Onda training base than usual.
In the past, every time Gao Zheng finished training, there were many Chinese journalists around him, but now he looked around and there were only one or two Chinese journalists.
He knew that everyone else had gone to Barcelona.
He has long gained a foothold at Atletico Madrid. If there is any news, Spanish media will also help report it. Domestic media only need to translate the reports of Spanish media.
Wu Lei's side is different. He is a newcomer, and too many people are paying attention to him being able to adapt to this new environment. Except for Chinese media, other Spanish media obviously don't care enough about him. So it is normal for Chinese media reporters to go to Wu Lei's side.
Compared with Gao Zheng, who has already established himself in La Liga, Wu Lei's fate has more impacted the hearts of domestic fans.
Gao Zheng's success is unreplicable. In their opinion, Wu Lei's experience at Espanyol may be more valuable to domestic players.

On January 17, Atletico Madrid challenged Las Palmas away, and at the same time, the game of Espanyol against Getafe was kicked off.
However, Wu Lei did not make it to the roster in this game. At the pre-match press conference, a Chinese reporter mentioned this. Espanyol head coach Constantine Galka explained that Wu Lei has not fully adapted to life here and is not ready to play for the team.
So Chinese fans don’t have to worry about whether to watch Gao Zheng’s game or Wu Lei’s game, Wu Lei has no game to play. What to watch?
Let’s watch Gao Zheng’s game honestly.
Wu Lei, who was not on the roster, naturally did not go to Madrid to play away games with the team.
He just watched TV at home, but not Gao Zheng's game, but the game between Espanyol and Getafe.
Although he cannot play, he still needs to know his team.
He had watched many videos of his new clubs before coming to Spain, but this did not mean that he could give up on continuing to understand his team.
Every game is different.
The feeling of watching live broadcast is more obvious.
When he had not transferred to Espanyol, he actually watched Gao Zheng's game, as long as the time was right. Even if the time was not right, if it was a very important game, such as a Madrid Derby, he had stayed up late to watch it.
But now that he is a Spanish player, he can't watch the game with a fan mentality like before.
Watching Gao Zheng's game will not help him adapt to everything about Espanyol, it would be better to know some of his teammates.
When the game reached the 18th minute, the latest goals from other games suddenly hit on the TV broadcast screen.
Atletico Madrid led Las Palmas 1:0 away, and the goal was... Gao Zheng!
Even if he doesn't pay attention to Atletico Madrid's game, Wu Lei still can't help but clench his fists when he sees this news.
Gao Zheng is really strong. For him, scoring a goal in the game is as simple as eating and breathing.
And he is still working hard to enter the Spanish roster as soon as possible...
In the 26th minute, Espanyol also took the lead away.
Hernan Perez takes the lead for the team.
When Wu Lei saw the team score a goal in front of the TV, he jumped up and waved his fists, and was happy for his team's performance. He is now an Espanyol player, so he naturally has to share the honor and disgrace with his team.
However, Wu Lei was not happy for too long. Three minutes later, Espanyol equalized the score by Getafe, and Pedro Leon equalized the score for Getafe.
In the 37th minute, Pablo Salavia overtook Getafe.
After that, Wu Lei was nervously looking forward to Espanyol being able to get the score back.
But I waited until the game was almost over, but I still didn't wait.
On the contrary, Getafe's player Moi Gomez scored Getafe's third goal in the last minute of injury time, helping Getafe defeated Espanyol 3:1.
This made Wu Lei very depressed.
However, at this time, in China, everyone said that the Spaniards lost well!
Who told them not to take Wu Lei?
Wu Lei's speed and unball run are what Spain needs the most.
Everyone hopes to see the forward combination formed by Asensio and Wu Lei.

At the same time, on the other side, Atletico Madrid defeated Las Palmas 3-0 away, Gao Zheng scored a goal and also contributed an assist, while Griezmann scored twice.
Real Madrid and Barcelona also continued to win, and both won with big scores.
Real Madrid defeated Athletic Gijon 5:1, and Barcelona defeated Athletic Bilbao 6:0.
Especially Real Madrid, since he fired Benitez in the 18th round of the league, Zidane, who was replaced by the youth team head coach, took over the team and quickly won two consecutive victories. In two games, the team scored a total of ten goals and conceded only one goal.
Real Madrid also wiped out its previous decline, tied Barcelona in points, and formed a pincer attack on Atletico Madrid.
After the league entered the second half, the competition became more and more intense, because everyone knew that there were fewer and fewer opportunities to make mistakes. If you make a mistake in the first half of the league, or make a few mistakes, there may be nothing left, and there is still time to make up for it.
But after the second half of the league, the schedule is getting more and more intensive, and the remaining games are getting fewer and fewer. Every time a mistake is made, the higher the cost of making up for it. In addition, it is mixed with events such as the Champions League, the Cup of Rey, and may even be unable to make up for the mistakes.
So everyone will avoid making mistakes at this time.
All three teams have lost three games so far. If you want to win the championship, it is best not to lose again.
Can't afford to lose.
