Chapter 150

However, the Chinese reporters in the press box were the happiest about Jiang Xiaolin's deep-fried meatballs that broke through DiMichael and scored.

Because before, some Japanese reporters proudly expressed their disdain for Jiang Xiaolin, and the reason was that Honda Keisuke was better than Jiang Xiaolin in terms of skills.

When both of them only scored one goal, Honda Keisuke, who was more skilled and could dribble through, was naturally better than Jiang Xiaolin in everyone's mind.

Even the Chinese reporters had to admit this.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Xiaolin, who had never used skills to break through, suddenly used a deep-fried meatball to pass the opponent's central defender in this game, and then scored a goal.

This surprised the Chinese reporters.

Now it's not just that Jiang Xiaolin leads Honda Keisuke 2-1 in terms of goals. In terms of skills, although Jiang Xiaolin is not better than Honda Keisuke, he is not much behind.

At least, Jiang Xiaolin can dribble through the front of the opponent's penalty area and succeed.

After the applause and cheers, a Chinese reporter said loudly in Japanese: "It's nothing special that Honda Keisuke can dribble past opponents. Jiang Xiaolin can do it too. Moreover, Jiang Xiaolin has scored two goals, while Honda Keisuke has only one."

This made the Japanese reporters very frustrated, but they had nothing to say.

Jiang Xiaolin actually used his skills to break through Di Michael and then shot the ball to score, not just letting his teammates feed him.

…

On the court, Jiang Xiaolin, who successfully used his skills to break through opponents for the first time and also shot the ball to score, was naturally very excited. He opened his arms and ran wildly on the court to celebrate, which attracted boos from many home fans of Venlo.

Of course, Jiang Xiaolin didn't care. He was used to the boos of away fans and didn't care.

His teammates also rushed up to celebrate with Jiang Xiaolin, and expressed their surprise and surprise congratulations.

Jiang Xiaolin, who can dribble and break through by himself, will be more threatening in the future, and his teammates will also have an easier time playing.

After celebrating for half a minute, everyone returned to their own half and waited for the Venlo team to kick off again and the game continued.

However, when Jiang Xiaolin scored, it was already in the injury time.

Although the referee gave a little more time, it was not enough for the Venlo team to score.

Even their attack did not reach the Alkmaar penalty area, and was kicked out of the sideline by Poconioli on the wing.

Then, the referee did not give the Venlo team another chance to send the ball out of bounds, and directly blew the whistle to end the first half of the game. The two sides entered the halftime break with a score of 2-2.

In the locker room, Van Gaal praised Jiang Xiaolin for his second goal and asked Jiang Xiaolin to make more breakthroughs in the future.

Although through usual training, Van Gaal also knew that Jiang Xiaolin did not have other extraordinary skills except fried meatballs.

Jiang Xiaolin did not know anything like Marseille turn, bicycle kick, and ox tail.

But fried meatballs were enough.

This is a very basic technical move. Although Jiang Xiaolin does not seem to be very proficient in it, his own ball-stopping and dribbling skills, as well as his physical fitness, starting speed, etc., can make Jiang Xiaolin's chance of passing the opponent after making this move not low.

Jiang Xiaolin naturally nodded in response.

Anyway, it has been used once and has lost its suddenness. It can be used frequently in the second half. There is no need to hold it back. It must be used when there is a chance to shoot after breaking through.

In the second half, even outside the penalty area, when there is no chance to shoot, this can be used to break through.

Of course, teammates have to guard against the risk of Jiang Xiaolin being intercepted by the opponent and counterattacked after failing to pass.

There is no way around it.

Let alone Jiang Xiaolin, even Ronaldo and Ronaldinho, who are crazy about breaking through, have failed to break through. It is inevitable. As long as everyone is careful.

After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Then, everyone saw a different situation from the first half.

In the first half, in fact, VVV was using its home advantage to attack Alkmaar, and the score at the end of the first half also showed that the two sides were evenly matched.

But after entering the second half, the situation suddenly became extremely unfavorable to VVV.

Because Jiang Xiaolin was more active than in the first half.

In the previous few games, Jiang Xiaolin, who could not break through, was enough to give the opponent a headache.

Jiang Xiaolin's physique, speed, off-ball running, ability to grab points, shooting, headers, etc., have made many teams feel overwhelmed, otherwise Jiang Xiaolin would not have scored 12 goals in 7 games.

On this basis, Jiang Xiaolin suddenly became able to dribble in this game, which was too much.

VVV was unprepared for this, even thoughThe head coach had already given instructions during the halftime break, but the players of the Venlo team didn't have much to do.

It's not that they can't limit Jiang Xiaolin at all.

If they don't attack at all, they still have a chance to limit Jiang Xiaolin. After all, Jiang Xiaolin's breakthrough ability is not high. Even the most skilled fried meatballs only have 15 points, and other skills that are not enabled by the system are not dared to be used.

But the problem is that the Venlo team can't defend the penalty area and use a few people to defend Jiang Xiaolin, because they are the ones who need to stay in the league now.

Their points are the same as the last one, but they are ranked second from the bottom because of the goal difference.

With only three rounds left in the league, a draw will not have much effect on the relegation of the Venlo team. They have to strive for victory.

In each of the last three rounds, they have to fight to the end.

Therefore, the frontcourt offensive players of the Venlo team can't retreat to participate in the defense and limit Jiang Xiaolin.

But Jiang Xiaolin's threat was real, so that the defenders of the Venlo team dared not relax their defense against him, and dared not move away from their own defense zone and run to the front to assist.

So, what the audience and fans saw was that the Venlo team, which scored two goals in the first half, was completely silent in the second half.

On defense, they did not do very well, and were constantly threatened by Alkmaar.

Jiang Xiaolin's breakthrough was not very good, but he was strong, started quickly, and his stop and dribbling were full.

So even if Jiang Xiaolin's breakthrough was not 100%, he could still create a lot of threats.

Not long after the second half started, in the 52nd minute, Jiang Xiaolin broke through Di Michael again in the frontcourt. Di Michael turned around and shoveled Jiang Xiaolin from behind.

Di Michael was shown a yellow card by the referee, and Alkmaar was given a free kick in the frontcourt with a good position and distance.

Although Maarten Martens's free kick didn't go in, it hit the crossbar and bounced out of the bottom line, making all the VVVV players and fans break out in a cold sweat.

And tracing back to the source, this threat was created by Jiang Xiaolin's breakthrough against DiMichael.
