Chapter 120
Even though he was already standing in the tunnel of the Amsterdam Arena, Yang Yang still couldn't believe that he was going to start.
This was his first start since he entered the first team for more than two months, and it turned out to be an important home game against Arsenal in the Champions League round of [-] knockout round. If it wasn't for the fact that there were a group of living teammates and opponents standing around him, he would wonder if he was dreaming.
The referee Anders Frisk from Sweden stood at the front of the line. He was chatting with Zlatan Ibrahimovic of Ajax and Ljungberg of Arsenal. The three were obviously familiar with each other and chatted happily.
Ajax still has a four-three-three formation. The goalkeeper is Robont, the defense is Maxwell, Escuder, Heitinga and Trabelsi, and the midfielder is De Jong.
This is Yang Yang's first start in his career.
There is no doubt that Ronald Koeman handed over the burden of Ajax's home game to Yang Yang. Whether he can pick it up, Yang Yang himself is not sure, so he can only walk into the stadium and try his best.
Arsenal still has a four-four-two formation. The goalkeeper is the German player Lehmann. The defense is Clichy, Campbell, Kolo Touré and Lauren. The midfielders are Pires, Vieira, Edu and Ljungberg from left to right. The two forwards are Henry and Reyes.
Facts have proved that the Brazilian midfielder Gilberto Silva still failed to catch up with this game in the end, and he didn't even make the squad. Ashley Cole was also injured.
Although he has played many times as a substitute, Yang Yang is still nervous about his debut. He knows what this game means to Ajax tonight.
Arsenal is too strong. If they can't win a home game, they basically have no chance of winning an away game.
For Arsenal it was a two-leg knockout, but for Ajax both were finals.
Turning his head and scanning the Arsenal stars, Yang Yang saw Henry, who was almost exactly the same as the simulated Henry in the super training ground, which made him smile.
I don't know if he felt something, Henry also turned his head at this moment, and saw the young Eastern player in the Ajax team smiling at him, and he immediately responded with a modest smile, as if to say, Come on, kid!
Vieira, the world's No. [-] midfielder, is very big, and Yang Yang feels like a towering mountain. It is really hard to imagine that a player like him rampages on the court. Who can stop him?
Also huge is central defender Saul Campbell, who is also pressured.
With his long hair, Pires looks like an elegant artist, and he has a charming smile, which is as calm as his playing style on the pitch.
Looking at this group of thunderous stars, Yang Yang really doubted that he would actually want to compete with them later.
God, can it be played to win?
This is a group of top players in the world!
But rationality made Yang Yang quickly take a few deep breaths to calm himself down, and kept reminding himself that when they entered the football field, they were not world superstars, but endless opponents, and they could only have one thought when dealing with them, and that was to kill them!
Thinking of this, Yang Yang closed his eyes and adjusted his emotions.
He needs silence.
…………
…………
"To all Ajax fans who came to the Amsterdam Arena, the highly anticipated first leg of the knockout round of the Champions League round of [-] is about to begin!"
"Let us welcome our Ajax warriors with the warmest applause!"
Under the appeal of the stadium broadcast, the audience burst into thunderous cheers and applause.
"Walking behind referee Anders Frisk is our captain, Raphael van der Vaart!"
The fans applauded vigorously while shouting Van der Vaart's name.
"Next is our goalkeeper, Robinte!"
The fans burst into applause again and called out the players' names.
"Sneijder... Escuder... Heitinga... Maxwell... Trabelsi... Songk... Ibrahimovic... De Jong..."
When Yang Yang, who was walking at the end of the crowd, followed De Jong and walked out of the player tunnel, the audience was suddenly silent.
"Oh, God, there's one last one... our No. 12 gold medalist, Yang Yang!!"
The silence was very short, and the whole stadium erupted into cheers that were not lost to the captain Van der Vaart. More than 5 fans shouted Yang Yang's name in unison, which made Yang Yang in the stadium feel excited.
He likes the feeling of being cheered by countless fans and supported by everyone.
Seeing the fans on the scene giving such a huge movement to a young player, not to mention Wenger and others in front of the visiting team's coaching bench, even Ronald Koeman and Luther Carroll of the home team, as well as the technical director Van Gaal sitting in the stands were all taken aback.
No one thought that without knowing it, Yang Yang would have such influence in the minds of Ajax fans.
"In the past few months, Yang Yang has brought us great surprises every time he came off the bench. Every time he made a appearance, he changed the situation of the game. Every time we see him standing on the sidelines, all of us Ajax fans can't help but hope, because we know that he never disappoints us."
"Tonight, we are also very much looking forward to whether Yang Yang, who started for the first team for the first time, can continue his outstanding performance as a gold medal substitute in the past and contribute his own strength to our home defeat against Arsenal."
…………
…………
The referee Frisk blew his whistle, and the three players in the frontcourt of Ajax quickly pressed towards Arsenal's defense.
Wesley Songk and Yang Yang were the fastest, and they rushed to the Gunners' two wings, one left and one right, while Zlatan Ibrahimovic rushed to the middle.
Not only the trident in the frontcourt, but also the three players in the midfield, and the entire defense line are quickly pressing on.
"Ajax's opening was very positive. From the beginning of the game, they pressed towards Arsenal's defense. It was obvious that they wanted to grab the start. Arsenal were not well prepared for the away game."
"Campbell passed it to Toure, and Toure passed it forward with a big kick."
"Heitinga cleared with a header, Vieira grabbed the first spot, and then headed back up the field."
"Escuder goes to the left, Maxwell gets the ball."
After successfully grabbing the ball, Ajax didn't want to be obsessed with possession of the ball. Maxwell quickly moved forward along the left wing, ready to launch an attack.
But Arsenal are obviously well-prepared for the away game. After losing the ball, they quickly returned to defense and set up a tight defense line. However, Ajax also deployed heavy troops, and Van der Vaart also ran over to respond.
After Wesley Songkneche pulled Lauren away, he gave way to the left. Maxwell stepped forward to receive the ball from van der Vaart, and directly curved the ball into the penalty area, but Campbell quickly headed the ball to clear.
Although Ajax's first attack reached the penalty area, it failed to create a threat.
But the ball didn't fly very far, and it was still in Arsenal's half.
The home team pressed forward aggressively, which to some extent disrupted Arsenal's plan, but the Gunners had experienced many battles, and the players quickly worked out countermeasures on the field. The four, four, two and three lines were kept very tight and orderly, and did not give Ajax too many opportunities.
However, Arsenal also tried to fight back once, but it was a pity that the pass was too strong and was attacked by goalkeeper Robont.
After a back-and-forth contest, the starting tactics of both sides have become clear.
Ajax, who are playing at home, wants to fight for a bite to eat Arsenal. Even the Gunners have to retreat and take a defensive position, but everyone knows that this momentum of Ajax is not sustainable.
As long as the opening three tricks do not work, the initiative of the audience will soon be handed over to Arsenal.
Yang Yang has been running in the frontcourt, pressing and receiving the ball to support his teammates, but Arsenal's defense is very meticulous, and Clichy did not give Yang Yang too many opportunities. In addition, Vieira and Edu are in the middle.
Facing the mighty Arsenal, Yang Yang did not dare to make mistakes. He tried to pass the ball as much as possible, ran more, patiently waited for the opportunity, and did not give Chrissy a chance to grab the ball from his feet.
Time passed bit by bit like this.
Ajax's offense is mainly concentrated on the left. Wesley Songk, Maxwell and van der Vaart have frequently tried this side, but it is difficult to pass the ball to the frontcourt.
Ibrahimovic was double-teamed by Campbell and Toure in the middle, and failed to receive a pass from the midfield.
On the contrary, Wesley Songk kept pulling sideways, retreating, and cutting inside. He had a wide range of activities and was very active, but it was difficult to get opportunities.
Just like this time, when he pulled to the left to catch the ball, Lauren was already standing in front of him, and Edu also leaned over to double-team. He immediately chose to pass the ball back to Van der Vaart and cut the penalty area obliquely, but Lauren followed closely.
Van der Vaart was followed by Edu, and Sneijder stepped forward and raised his hand to ask for the ball, but as soon as he received the ball, Vieira was already close to Sneijder, forcing him to turn around to protect the ball. For this reason, Vieira pushed him from behind and almost fell down. He quickly passed the ball back to Van der Vaart.
Edu rushed over menacingly, allowing Van der Vaart to quickly pass back to De Jong, who immediately passed the ball to Yang Yang on the right, and was almost cut off by Pires halfway.
Yang Yang quickly retreated from the right side to catch the ball, stabbed the ball past Pires with the first kick, and leaned towards the middle, but Clichy blocked him. Yang Yang didn't want to be flanked by two French players. Through [God's Vision], he saw that Ibrahimovic had blocked Campbell, and immediately chose to pass the ball behind Clichy.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic chased out of the penalty area to the right, and Clichy and Campbell were taken by him. Wesley Sonke obliquely inserted the penalty area to the vicinity of the penalty spot, attracting the attention of Kolo Touré, ready to rush to the goal at any time. Van der Vaart was standing in the top area of the penalty area, and was also ready to rush up to grab the back point at any time.
At this time, Yang Yang could clearly see that the entire right half of Arsenal's penalty area was completely blank, without even a single defensive player. This made him feel unbelievable, but also very excited. He chose to rush in almost without hesitation, and did not forget to shout loudly at the Swedish center forward.
"Nine o'clock!"
It's Monday again, and a new week begins. Brothers and sisters, please vote more, thank you!If there is no accident, it should be on the shelves on Friday, please leave the monthly pass to me, thank you!
