Almost at the same time, at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid, Real Madrid welcomed Valencia.
Yang Yang was given a start for the second start of the season, having started the last time against Osasuna, but went off injured after two minutes on the pitch.
The Bat Legion took a decisive start to the game, although they sold Villa and David Silva this summer, but Valencia soon emerged with new talents such as Juan Mata, Soldado and Alba, plus Joaquín, who was already in the team, Valencia's overall strength is still not bad.
The two sides struggled for almost half an hour until the 28th minute, when Real Madrid organized an attack, the attack from the right did not work, and they were forced to pass back, and David Silva sent the ball behind the defence with a precise through ball.
Yang Yang deftly ran out of space, successfully countered offside, received the ball in the penalty area, and volleyed a left-footed volley into the far corner to break Valencia's goal and open the scoring for Real Madrid.
The two sides continued to stalemate until the 42nd minute, when Mascherano broke the ball at the back, Yang Yang and Robben crossed and switched positions and appeared on the right flank, attacking the gap left by Valencia's left wing-back Alba after the attack.
Yang Yang drove straight into the ball alone, raided more than 50 meters, and after rushing into the penalty area, the pendulum shook Valencia goalkeeper Ricardo Costa, and fired a powerful volley to break through Valencia's goal again and score a brace.
And Yang Yang himself was replaced in the 60th minute after the rematch in the second half.
In the end, Real Madrid beat Valencia 2-0 at home.

The Swedish centre-forward was so depressed that he couldn't screw his head off.
In the 44th minute, Zaragoza fouled on the periphery of the penalty area, giving Real Madrid a direct free kick opportunity in the middle of the position, about 23 meters away from the goal.

Three days later, in the final of the Club World Cup, Real Madrid faced African champion Mazembe.
In fact, it was a game where anyone could see the outcome clearly, and the African teams were simply powerless to threaten Real Madrid.
As it turned out, the game turned into an exhibition match for the Real Madrid stars.
Half an hour earlier, Real Madrid quickly took a three-goal lead, with Yang Yang scoring a brace and assisting Arjen Robben to score a goal.
After taking a three-goal lead, Real Madrid began to stay and did not intend to make the opponent too ugly, and Mazembe also found it difficult to threaten Real Madrid's goal, and the ball was always under Real Madrid's control.
It wasn't until the second half that Real Madrid attacked again, especially in the final stages of the game, when Ibrahimovic scored the last goal for Real Madrid.
In the end, Real Madrid defeated the African powerhouse 4-0 and won the Club World Cup.
It was also the first Club World Cup title in the club's history.
With four goals in two games, Yang Yang was voted the top scorer of this year's Club World Cup, and also won the Ballon d'Or, the Silver Ball was allocated to a player of Mazembe by FIFA, and the Bronze Ball was assigned to a player of the third-place Brazilian international team.
For this FIFA event, European teams are still somewhat helpless.
The level of viewing of the game is not high, the difference in the strength of the team is too large, and Real Madrid can be said to win very easily.
But it was Real Madrid who won the first Club World Cup in the club's history in Abu Dhabi, and Yang Yang won two awards in succession, and after returning to the dressing room, Yang Yang received congratulatory text messages from relatives and friends one after another.
There is also a message from Su Ye in it.
After playing the Century Derby and confirming that Yang Yang's injury was safe, she returned to China to film.
She currently has two drama contracts on her, one is a play by a famous domestic director, and the other is invested by Wei Zheng, both of which have finalized her as the protagonist early and have been waiting for her until now.
But just after Real Madrid won the Club World Cup, Yang Yang received a photo from Su Ye in the locker room.
That night, Yang Yang did not return to Europe with the team to celebrate the Club World Cup victory, but directly bid farewell to the team and flew to Beijing overnight.
