Chapter 378

After taking the lead, Alkmaar's game will be easier to play.

Because if Willem II wants to score a goal to equalize the score, he must attack.

It is difficult for one person to form a threatening attack. Even Jiang Xiaolin can hardly penetrate the opponent's defense alone, and it is not so easy to pass five people.

Therefore, to attack, at least two or three people must cooperate with each other and run to involve each other.

Even if Willem II only invests two or three people in the attack, it will reduce the number of defenders in their backcourt.

Of course, under normal circumstances, the front and back courts will not be too disconnected. If the midfield and frontcourt attack, the backcourt will definitely follow.

Therefore, as long as Alkmaar steals the ball, it is possible to make a successful counterattack.

In the 27th minute, Alkmaar intercepted Willem II's pass in the backcourt, and then David Mendes kicked the ball to the frontcourt with a big foot.

Alkmaar counterattacked.

Although this big kick did not match Jiang Xiaolin's speed and running position, allowing Jiang Xiaolin to directly counter-offside and receive the ball to form a single shot, Jiang Xiaolin still occupied the ball's landing point with his strong physique, and then headed the ball to Moussa Dembele who rushed up from the wing.

Afterwards, Jiang Xiaolin landed and bypassed the William II player who had just been closely guarding him and competing with him for a header, and rushed into the opponent's penalty area.

Moussa Dembele also passed the ball to the front of Jiang Xiaolin before the opponent's full-back rushed to grab it.

This was considered a wall-to-wall cooperation, but Jiang Xiaolin just used his head to pass it to Dembele.

After completing this pass-cut cooperation, there was only one defender in front of Jiang Xiaolin who hurried back to defend.

Jiang Xiaolin did not even need to pass him, but just kept changing directions to avoid an angle while dribbling forward, and then kicked the ball from the left corner of the penalty area.

The ball drew a beautiful arc in the air and went to the far corner of the goal.

Goalkeeper Aites, who was guarding the near end, hurriedly retreated two steps, then jumped up to save the ball, but still failed to reach the ball.

The ball flew over his palm diagonally, and then went into the goal along the far post.

In the 27th minute, Jiang Xiaolin scored another goal for Alkmaar through a counterattack, and Alkmaar took a 2-0 lead.

After falling behind by two goals, the players of William II were a little discouraged.

The strength was already inferior, and now they were two goals behind, and they were playing away. Even the players of William II wanted to give up.

But sometimes, scoring a goal depends on luck.

In the 35th minute, when William II entered the penalty area during an attack, the winger did not choose to shoot at a very small angle on the right side of the penalty area, but kicked a cross.

As a result, the ball hit the hand of the defensive player Pocognoli. Although Pocognoli argued to the referee that he did not commit a handball foul, but the ball was in his hand, the referee still believed that his hand expanded the defensive area and firmly judged a handball foul, and William II won a penalty.

The penalty was not unexpected. Forward Dan Mozhi scored the penalty in one fell swoop and kicked it into the dead corner.

Although Romero judged the direction correctly, he was powerless in the face of such a penalty.

William II scored a point with a penalty in the 35th minute. The score between the two sides was 2-1, and William II was only one goal behind.

After falling behind by only one goal, William II's players became energetic again, and their morale was immediately boosted. They wanted to take the opportunity to score another goal and equalize the score before the end of the first half.

As a result, Jiang Xiaolin gave them a blow before two minutes had passed.

In the 37th minute, Jiang Xiaolin passed the defender William II outside the penalty area with a crotch pass. Facing the opponent's central defender, Jiang Xiaolin simply dribbled the ball and flicked the ball to avoid an angle, and then immediately took a long shot.

Although Jiang Xiaolin's shot seemed hasty, it was actually premeditated and well prepared. The thigh force was sufficient, making his shot powerful and fast.

The ball flew into the air, and with Jiang Xiaolin's full long shot and shooting skills, it passed through the penalty area and went straight to the upper right corner of the goal.

Although goalkeeper Aites was standing to the right of the center of the goal, the distance for saving was not far.

But even so, facing Jiang Xiaolin's extremely fast long shot, he still failed to save the ball.

The ball was too fast and flew into the goal along the bottom edge of the crossbar before his palm was in place.

In the 37th minute, Jiang Xiaolin scored twice, helping Alkmaar continue to lead Willem II by two goals with a score of 3-1.

Jiang Xiaolin's powerful and violent long-range shot knocked down the morale of Willem II's players, making them realize that no matter how hard they struggled, it would be difficult to defeat Alkmaar led by Jiang Xiaolin.

Next, againstThe opponent dared not to attack and try to score again, but to defend and firmly guard his own penalty area. At most, he would occasionally seize the opportunity to pass the ball to each other for a sneak attack, and the others would not attack randomly again.

It is not shameful to lose to the top Alkmaar, but it is afraid of losing too many balls and turning into a bloodbath, which is not fun.

Therefore, even if he was two goals behind, William II was no longer in a hurry to attack and equalize the score, but played the game based on defense.

Perhaps, some players have even accepted the result of losing this game.

Soon, the first half was over.

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

After the start of the second half, William II still did not make any adjustments, and did not try to press forward to score and equalize the score.

Alkmaar, which was already two goals ahead, also slowed down its offensive, and Van Gaal even started to make substitutions in the 60th minute.

Because there will be a FIFA match day in a few days, some national team players will go to participate in the national team's game, so Van Gaal replaced them in advance to rest.

Only the Chinese team where Jiang Xiaolin is located, although there will be the fifth round of the World Cup Asian Qualifiers on February 11, but the Chinese team has played four rounds and this round is a bye.

Therefore, Jiang Xiaolin does not need to report back to the national team, and Van Gaal did not replace him, but continued to keep him on the field to maintain deterrence against the opponent, so that the opponent dare not act rashly.

So, the second half of the game was somewhat calm.

Until the 79th minute, Moussa Dembele's breakthrough outside the left corner of the penalty area caused the opponent to foul, winning a free kick for Alkmaar.

Although the angle was a bit biased and the distance was a bit far, more than 30 meters, Jiang Xiaolin still played a high-quality arc free kick, which went straight to the near end of the goal.

Jiang Xiaolin completed a hat trick, helping Alkmaar lock in the victory and take a 4-1 lead.

Not long after completing the hat trick, Jiang Xiaolin was also replaced by Van Gaal.

After 3 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to end the game. Alkmaar defeated Willem II 4-1 at home with Jiang Xiaolin's one assist and three goals, and continued to lead the standings.

In this game, Jiang Xiaolin obtained 1 assist 1000 + 3 goals 6000 + win 4000 = 11,000 basic experience.

In terms of system rating, Jiang Xiaolin received the rating of "excellent performance" with a rating coefficient of 3.

Therefore, the total experience Jiang Xiaolin finally obtained was 11,000*3=33,000. Combined with the previous daily training, Jiang Xiaolin's level experience rose to level 22 88.18/3 million.

After the game, Jiang Xiaolin's performance of making all four goals of the team alone was naturally reported extensively by the media.

Countless people have become numb to Jiang Xiaolin's goals, but they are still shocked and amazed by Jiang Xiaolin's goal efficiency.

Just like the previous record of consecutive goals being interrupted, now Jiang Xiaolin's goals are not news, but not scoring is news.

The key is that after this game, Jiang Xiaolin's league goals this season have reached a terrifying 40, and this is even when he missed 6 league games due to injuries in the Olympics at the beginning of the season.

In comparison, Suarez, the second place in the scorer list, has only a dozen goals, which is not even as good as Jiang Xiaolin's.

Jiang Xiaolin's 40 league goals this season are not the most critical, the most critical is that the single-season goal record of the Dutch Eredivisie is 43 goals.

In the 1956/1957 season, Cohen Dillon scored 43 goals in 34 Dutch Eredivisie games, setting the highest single-season goal record in the Dutch Eredivisie so far, which has never been broken before Jiang Xiaolin appeared.

And now, Jiang Xiaolin is infinitely close to this record.

According to Jiang Xiaolin's practice of performing hat tricks, perhaps in the next game Jiang Xiaolin may tie or break this record.

The key is that the Dutch Eredivisie has only played 22 rounds this season, and there are still 12 rounds of leagues to go.

Even if the next game does not set a record, Jiang Xiaolin will definitely break Cohen Dillon's single-season record of 43 goals this season, and raise this record by a large margin, making the latecomers daunting.

Therefore, after this game, in addition to the heated discussion about Jiang Xiaolin's hat trick again and an assist, the media and fans also added the topic of when Jiang Xiaolin will break the Dutch Eredivisie single-season goal record.

Of course, as Chinese fans, they are obviously the proudest and the most enthusiastic.

News comment area, post bar, forum, QQ group, etc. reporting this gameIn the place, fans are everywhere enthusiastically discussing when Jiang Xiaolin will break the single-season goal record in the Eredivisie:

"It's hard to watch, Jiang Xiaolin's goal efficiency is too terrifying."

"Yes! He missed 6 league rounds at the beginning of the season, but he has already scored 40 goals. By the way, how many league games did he spend to score 40 goals?"

"22 league rounds minus the 6 rounds he missed at the beginning of the season, isn't that 16 rounds?"

"Damn? 40 goals in 16 league rounds? It's abnormal!"

"Yes! Before Jiang Xiaolin, I never thought that there was someone in the world with such a high goal efficiency. Jiang Xiaolin subverted my understanding of football."

"Me too! But the happiest thing is that Jiang Xiaolin is our Chinese."

"Not bad! Jiang The more goals Xiaolin scores, the better. Hurry up and break the single-season goal record in the Eredivisie in the next game. "

"It may not work in the next away game against PSV Eindhoven."

"Well, and the next game is the first round of the UEFA Cup 1/16 final away. I think Van Gaal will probably hold back in the game against PSV Eindhoven."

"Well, the probability is very high! However, for Jiang Xiaolin, even if it is only half a game, he may be able to score a hat trick and tie the record."

"Yes, you must watch this game live. I don't want to miss the opportunity to create a record."

"Same as above +1!"

Amid the heated discussions of the media and fans, after all the games in this round were over, a more favorable result for Alkmaar came out.

Twente, ranked second, was tied by Grafschap, ranked second from the bottom, and only got one point.

And Ajax, ranked third, was even worse, and actually lost the game.

Therefore, Alkmaar, which is at the top of the list with 58 points, has opened a gap of 13 points with Twente, which is in second place with 45 points.

This is a gap of four games.

Alkmaar has four league games of error tolerance.

In this way, Alkmaar will have more flexible adjustment space in the subsequent three-line operations.

For example, in the next league match against Eindhoven, Alkmaar can completely play with substitutes, and then save the main players for the next away game against Lekpsner in the first round of the UEFA Cup 1/16 final.

Of course, this is just everyone's guess. The specific situation still needs to wait until the game starts to see Van Gaal's specific arrangements.

On February 11, 2009, when the Chinese team had a bye, two games in Group A of the top ten in the Asian zone of the South African World Cup qualifiers were played and ended at the same time.

In the end, the result of the game made Chinese fans jubilant.

The two teams at the bottom of the A group standings, Uzbekistan and Bahrain, fought each other, and Uzbekistan lost to Bahrain 0-1 at home.

Of course, the wins and losses of these two teams have little impact on the Chinese team.

The key is another game, Japan played against Australia at home, and the two teams ended up in a 0-0 tie.

In this way, the Japanese team failed to catch up with the Chinese team in points.

There are a total of 10 rounds in the top ten, 8 games for each team. After the first five rounds and 4 games were played halfway, Australia ranked first in the A group standings with three wins and one draw and 10 points, China ranked second with two wins, one draw and one loss and 7 points, Japan ranked third with one win, two draws and one loss and 5 points, Bahrain ranked fourth with 4 points, and Uzbekistan ranked last with 1 point.

In other words, after half of the top ten games, the Chinese team still occupied one of the top two qualifying places.

This was achieved when Jiang Xiaolin missed three rounds of games.

As long as Jiang Xiaolin does not encounter any accidents in the second half, the media and fans can already imagine the scenario of the Chinese team ranking in the top two and qualifying.

It is exciting to think about it.

Therefore, the 0-0 result between the Japanese team and Australia in the fifth round is quite good for the Chinese team, which has a bye in this round.
