Chapter 237 Marseille roundabout [The third update of the explosive liver, please subscribe for a monthly pass]
"We must completely freeze Yang Yang during the game!"
This is a sentence that Eindhoven coach Hiddink repeatedly warned the players before the Eredivisie Tianwangshan battle.
No one will forget that it was Yang Yang's outstanding performance that helped Ajax beat PSV Eindhoven.
After that game, Hiddink listed Yang Yang as one of Ajax's most threatening players.
And this summer, after Van der Vaart and Zlatan Ibrahimovic left, Yang Yang has become the most lethal player in Ajax and the most feared player in Eindhoven.
Ajax's performance this season is not ideal, especially after entering September, only two of the four games were tied, the league points did not rise much, but the rankings fell all the way, which led to Ajax being criticized overwhelmingly.
Eindhoven was originally determined to win the game against Ajax at home, but also full of confidence.
Unexpectedly, after Yang Yang's return, Ajax's performance has improved considerably. First, they narrowly beat Rhoda JC [-]-[-] in the league, and then beat Maccabi Tel Aviv [-]-[-] in the third group stage of the Champions League.
The two victories made the entire Dutch football world believe that Ajax is recovering strongly.
Ajax with Yang Yang also showed a strong enough attack power, which is dreadful.
Hiddink focused on rehearsing the team's left defense before the game, and Lee Young-pyo was the key figure in the left defense.
The South Korean player was Hiddink's favorite player when he coached the South Korean national team. After coming to Eindhoven, he also received Hiddink's attention. He started to play the main force last season, and this season he has become the best choice for the team on the left.
But in Li Rongpyo's heart, there is always a thorn, and that is Yang Yang.
The same Asian player, also from East Asia, but Yang Yang completely beat him, the South Korean international, to the ground in the first match, which caused an uproar in South Korea.
Later, Yang Yang helped Ajax reach the Champions League final all the way, and won the championship trophy, becoming the first player in Asia to reach the top of the Champions League. This once again aroused heated discussions among Korean domestic media and fans.
Everyone knows that South Korea has always looked down on Chinese football, and Korean phobia is a topic they like to talk about.
But who would have thought that overnight, a talented rookie who was even better than South Korean players emerged in China.
Just when the South Korean media and fans speculated that Yang Yang was probably just a flash in the pan, the 17-year-old Chinese teenager helped the China Youth Team win the Champions League in the Toulon Cup after winning the Champions League.
In the subsequent Asian Cup in China, Yang Yang not only helped the Chinese team win the first championship trophy in history, but also defeated Shunsuke Nakamura of Japan, won the title of best player in the Asian Cup, and became the youngest player in the history of the Asian Cup.
On the other hand, South Korea lost to Japan and was rejected from the final.
This made the South Korean media and fans feel that they were severely slapped in the face. Some people even began to worry that if the South Korean national team faced the Chinese team, would the Korean fear be completely broken?
This worry is not without reason.
In the final of the Asian Youth Championship in September, Yang Yang led the Chinese youth team to another victory over the South Korean national youth team, and won the best player and top scorer awards alone, becoming the veritable No. [-] star in Asia.
It can be said that by this time, everyone has begun to accept the fact that China has produced a genius.
But South Korea is unwilling to admit and accept this fact.
In the Eredivisie league in the new season, Park Ji-sung and Lee Young-pyo both played the main players in Eindhoven. Facing Ajax and Yang Yang, the enthusiasm of the Korean domestic media and fans was unprecedentedly high. Many media even came to the Philippe Stadium in the Netherlands to watch the match.
The South Korean media also repeatedly emphasized this confrontation between China and South Korea. They believed that Park Ji-sung and Lee Young-pyo could help Eindhoven defeat Ajax, and Lee Young-pyo, who was facing Yang Yang, should not give Yang Yang the slightest chance.
Facing the frantic media and fans, Lee Young-pyo also said in an interview with authoritative Korean media before the game, "All fans, rest assured, I will not give him any chance in this game, I will completely freeze him!"
In addition to the Korean media, the Dutch domestic media also paid special attention to this game, especially Yang Yang's performance.
Whether Yang Yang can be frozen or not seems to have become the key to Eindhoven's defense.
…………
…………
No matter how good you say before the game, in the game, you still have to rely on your real strength to prove it.
Three games, eight days, [-] kilometers.
This is the praise of Yang Yang from all the media before the game, and it feels like they are going to praise him to the sky.
After returning to the Netherlands, he played two consecutive games in less than a week. He came off the bench against Roda JC, and Maccabi Tel Aviv, who played in the Champions League in the middle of the week, did not play the whole game.
Everyone knows that he saves his energy to play PSV.
Li Rongpyo was full of words, but he didn't dare to be negligent or careless during the game.
He is very clear that as long as there is even the slightest bit of carelessness, Yang Yang may create an opportunity.
During the game, Li Rongpyo repeatedly reminded himself that he must focus and pay attention. Hiddink even allowed him to be responsible for keeping an eye on Yang Yang full-time, and he could ignore other things.
He also performed his duties very conscientiously. He entangled Yang Yang tightly and followed him every step of the way.
Wherever Yang Yang ran, he followed.
He was like a piece of dog skin plaster stuck to Yang Yang's body, and he couldn't even shake it off.
This kind of man-to-man defense made Yang Yang very difficult to deal with. Although he had a few chances and made two threats, they were not very good, and his teammates didn't grasp them.
As for personal performance, limited by Lee Young-pyo's personal marking, coupled with Hiddink's tight defense on the left, it was difficult for Yang Yang to make a difference, and he failed to show an impressive performance throughout the first half.
Li Rongpyo ran for more than 40 minutes, and he felt very tired, very tired.
He hadn't felt this way in a long time.
The last time should have been in the World Cup in Korea and Japan, and what impressed him the most was the game against Spain. He faced Joaquin, the Spanish right winger who was famous in Europe at the time.
Like tonight, his nerves were tense throughout the game, and he was exhausted by passively following the opponent, too many stops and turns, too many sudden starts.
But Yang Yang's pressure on him is obviously even greater, because his range of activities is wider than that of Joaquin.
Li Rongpyo couldn't believe it. He even compared a 17-year-old Chinese boy with the Spanish winger who had been famous for many years. He even came to the conclusion that if this word spread, he would surely laugh at how many people would laugh.
But that's what he really thought.
Fortunately, the first half is coming to an end.
Finally, I can rest and take a breath.
The South Korean left-back thought to himself when he saw the fourth official on the sidelines holding up a sign for 2 minutes of extra time.
But it was just this short moment of distraction, and when he turned his gaze back to Yang Yang on the court, he found that there was no one there.
At this moment, his whole body seemed to have fallen into an ice cellar.
…………
…………
Yang Yang was also very tired, already out of breath.
To deal with Li Rongpyo's single-minded brain, he really had no other way but to run.
Didn't Van Basten say that?
Offensive players who run are unstoppable.
When he saw Maicon taking the ball in the backcourt, he immediately ran back to catch it.
The Brazilian right back played a little conservatively tonight, not daring to press too much, worrying about his back.
Maicon did not pass the ball directly to Yang Yang, but passed it to De Jong, and De Jong passed it to Yang Yang, forming a triangle pass.
When Yang Yang was about to catch the ball, he found that Li Rongpyo didn't entangle him immediately. This made him overjoyed and he caught the ball smoothly.
Only then did Li Rongpyo catch up from behind, but because his reaction was a bit slow, the chase was a bit too hasty.
Yang Yang knew too well what to do at this time.
Before Li Rongpyo came behind him, Yang Yang quickly turned around and pulled the ball.
"Oh my god, the Marseille roundabout..."
After turning around and throwing away Li Rongpyo, Yang Yang quickly dribbled the ball forward, gritted his teeth, mustered all his strength, and the speed became faster and faster.
Eindhoven's late midfielder in this game is the veteran Cocu, who quickly rushed towards Yang Yang after reacting.
Unexpectedly, without waiting for Koku to get close, Yang Yang quickly made a pendulum pass, swaying from side to side with continuous fake moves, directly past Koku, continued to rush forward with the ball, and went straight to the penalty area.
"Beautiful pendulum!"
"Yang Yang rushed up, passed two PSV players in a row, and rushed to the penalty area."
At this moment, the only player standing in front of Yang Yang is the central defender Alex from Brazil.
The Brazilian central defender who just transferred from Santos in Brazil to Chelsea this summer, but was sold by Chelsea to Eindhoven in a blink of an eye, faced the approaching Yang Yang, he kept retreating.
The distance between the two is getting closer and closer, and behind Alex is the restricted area, and he has no way to retreat.
The Brazilian central defender had no choice but to stop his body and force towards Yang Yang.
He is already the last defensive player, and there is no way to retreat.
Yang Yang took the ball and stepped on skillful steps, every step he took seemed to come from his instinct.
He clearly saw the changes in Alex, and he also clearly knew the situation he had to face, but he didn't intend to give his opponent time to react, he needed a bang.
Alex saw that Yang Yang had rushed into his defense zone. When he was about to step forward, he saw Yang Yang's left shoulder suddenly sink, and he immediately realized that this guy's left foot was no worse than his right foot.
Damn!
This guy is going to cut in and hit the goal!
Almost instantly, Alex instinctively reacted and made a defensive move to block Yang Yang's inward cut, but unexpectedly, Yang Yang's body suddenly flickered and quickly changed to an outward cut.
Alex was shocked. He reacted almost immediately, but his body had already made a movement, which made him a step slower. When he turned around again, Yang Yang had already passed by him. He almost turned over and stretched out his hand. He grabbed the jersey behind Yang Yang and pulled it hard.
This pull made Yang Yang, who was rushing forward, completely lose his balance, and his whole body fell sideways.
Alex took the opportunity to rush forward and kicked the ball out of bounds.
And at this moment, the referee's whistle sounded.
Throw-in?
