Chapter 216

When Jiang Xiaolin received a pass from Martens and scored a single goal, both Van Gaal on the sidelines and the Alkmaar fans in the stands had their eyes wide open.

Everyone knows that a single goal is usually a sure thing for Jiang Xiaolin.

Everyone was looking forward to Jiang Xiaolin scoring this single goal and equalizing the score before the end of the first half, so that everyone could be in a good mood during the halftime break and fight to the death with Nijmegen in the second half.

Sure enough, Jiang Xiaolin did not disappoint those who trusted him.

After receiving the ball, he dribbled into the penalty area and faced the attacking goalkeeper Bapos. Jiang Xiaolin volleyed the ball into the far corner of the goal.

Van Gaal immediately waved his fist and turned around to celebrate with the assistant coach and others.

As a result, while turning around, Van Gaal saw the linesman raise the flag.

Van Gaal's heart skipped a beat, and then he heard the referee blow the whistle and judged Jiang Xiaolin offside.

The goal was invalid.

Van Gaal was furious.

He yelled at the referee on the field: "Fak, where are your eyes? You actually called offside for such a good ball?"

Then, Van Gaal turned his head and yelled to the linesman: "Open your dog eyes, the ball just now was a good ball, Jiang couldn't be offside."

While yelling, Van Gaal also raised his middle finger to the linesman, expressing his serious dissatisfaction.

Amid Van Gaal's angry scolding, the fourth official came over and warned: "Mr. Van Gaal, please calm down and don't insult the referee team members, otherwise I will report to the referee and send you to the stands."

After scolding the referee and the linesman, Van Gaal immediately turned around and launched an indiscriminate attack on the fourth official: "Are you f*cking blind? The referee team made a wrong call on this ball, can't I protest? Black whistle, all of them are black whistles!"

The fourth official naturally could not accept such insults and accusations, and immediately reported to the referee through the headset that Van Gaal had been insulting the referee, the linesman and him on the sidelines and making insulting gestures.

The referee, who was originally surrounded by Jiang Xiaolin, Martens, Hamdaoyi, and Yarians, immediately pushed Hamdaoyi away and ran to the sidelines.

Van Gaal was fearless, staring at the referee who ran towards him and yelled: "What? You can't yell when your penalty is wrong? If you have the guts, send me to the stands!"

No matter whether the referee's penalty is wrong or not, the referee's dignity cannot be challenged.

The referee, who originally wanted to warn Van Gaal, was naturally unwilling to be outdone when he heard Van Gaal's provocation. He took out the red card while running, then stood in front of Van Gaal and said:

"In view of your insulting the referee members, please leave the stadium immediately and sit in the stands!"

The Nijmegen fans in the stands immediately gave a huge applause, cheers and laughter, and were happy that Van Gaal was sent to the stands.

The fans of Alkmaar booed and abused the referee, but they could not change the referee's decision.

Van Gaal saw the red card shown by the opponent, nodded without surprise, applauded the referee, and said: "Just wait, this matter is not over today!"

Then, Van Gaal turned around and walked up to the stands without hesitation, not caring about the Nijmegen fans around him who were eyeing him covetously.

Fortunately, the stadium security personnel immediately came up to separate the two sides, and did not let the fans really hurt Van Gaal.

On the court, Jiang Xiaolin and his teammates, who were originally called offside by the referee and had their goals blown off, were still communicating with the referee calmly.

As a result, now seeing that the referee actually sent their head coach to the stands, Jiang Xiaolin and his teammates were immediately excited and felt hugely angry.

Especially the person involved, Jiang Xiaolin, as a Chinese, was deeply influenced by traditional culture. He was usually more introverted and humble, and didn't cause much trouble.

But at this time, Jiang Xiaolin couldn't help it.

Because not only his goal was blown off, but Van Gaal, who promoted him, was also sent to the stands.

Jiang Xiaolin couldn't help but curse at the referee: "Are you really mentally ill? You blew my goal, the coach protested a few words, and you sent Van Gaal to the stands! Is your head full of shit?"

Jiang Xiaolin didn't even curse in Chinese, but in Dutch.

How could he escape punishment by insulting the referee like this?

Jiang Xiaolin was shown a yellow card as expected.

In fact, if the situation was not a bit chaotic and he was afraid of causing a riot, according to the referee's previous temper, Jiang Xiaolin's scolding him would not only be a yellow card, but a red card.

Didn't you see that Van Gaal, who was so famous, was sent off with a red card, let alone Jiang Xiaolin?

Only a yellow card for Jiang Xiaolin, the referee was merciful.

The angry Jiang Xiaolin wanted to step forward and argue with the referee, and even wanted to curse him again, but was pulled away by other teammates.

However, although Jiang Xiaolin was pulled away, the captain Yaliens stood up again and expressed his great anger.

Because the last time Hemu faked a fall to cheat a penalty, Yaliens was already very angry.

After the communication failed and the referee insisted on awarding a penalty, Yaliens was already angry.

As a result, Jiang Xiaolin's good ball was blown off again, the head coach Van Gaal was sent to the stands, and the goal hero Jiang Xiaolin was also shown a yellow card. Whether from the perspective of personal feelings or for the benefit of the team, Yaliens, as the captain, must stand up.

However, the anger in Yaliens' heart was out of his control.

The more he talked to the referee, the angrier he got. As a result, Jariens couldn't help but swear a few times, which was caught by the referee. Then Jariens was honored to receive a yellow card.

Jariens, who was even more angry and wanted to break the jar, was finally pulled away by David Mendes and others.

After Van Gaal's red card and Jiang Xiaolin and Jariens' yellow cards, the players of Alkmaar were finally suppressed by force, and no one surrounded the referee to ask for an explanation.

But the anger in everyone's heart was obvious.

Even the commentator couldn't stand it anymore, shaking his head and explaining in the commentary booth:

"The referee's decision is ridiculous! The previous penalty was very controversial. After replaying, we clearly saw that it was Hemu's diving, not Moreno's foul. As a result, the referee team has made another ridiculous penalty."

"First, Jiang was judged to be offside, and a good ball was blown out. Then, Van Gaal was sent to the stands and Jiang and Yarriens were given yellow cards respectively. I don't know what deep hatred this referee has with Alkmaar. This game was too biased."

"Van Gaal is not a silent person!"

"We can expect that after this game, Van Gaal will definitely have something to say about several controversial penalties."
