Chapter 55

Before the game started, Ajax Youth Team ranked first in the Heqing League standings, and Alkmaar Youth Team ranked third.

Moreover, Ajax Youth Team was more than ten points ahead of Alkmaar.

From this point of view, the strength of Ajax Youth Team should be stronger than that of Alkmaar Youth Team.

Moreover, Ajax played at home, and the venue of the game was where they trained every day, and the familiarity was incomparable to the players of Alkmaar.

In such a game, even if the home team made mistakes and the visiting team performed exceptionally, it would be great if the home team lost one or two goals.

But the current situation is that Ajax Youth Team fell behind 0-3 in just 13 minutes after the start of the first half.

Moreover, the three goals lost were scored by the same person, who was once despised and kicked out by them.

This is too embarrassing, too confusing, too confusing, and too confusing.

The entire Ajax youth team was flustered and at a loss, and had no idea how to play the next game.

They could only follow the ball in a daze, but were often distracted by Alkmaar's passes and could not stop the opponent's attack at all.

The so-called defeat is like a mountain collapsing, which is what the Ajax youth team is in now.

In the 18th minute, front midfielder Joel was pushed to the ground by the opponent after dribbling the ball, and Alkmaar got a free kick in the frontcourt.

The ball was far away and not suitable for direct shooting.

Therefore, the free kick taken by Lanlot did not go straight to the goal, but fell into the penalty area.

Jiang Xiaolin won the header in the penalty area and headed the ball into the goal.

The goalkeeper had already surrendered, but unfortunately the ball was a little higher in the end, hitting the outer edge of the crossbar and bouncing out of the bottom line.

Even if the ball did not go in, it was enough to make Ajax, from coaches, players to fans, sweat.

Alkmaar's continuous crazy attack forced the flustered and undisciplined Ajax to use fouls to stop it.

In the 25th minute, Ajax players were forced to foul again to stop Kagel's breakthrough, giving Alkmaar another free kick in the frontcourt.

Moreover, the position of this free kick was very good, just slightly to the left of the front of the penalty area, about 25 meters away from the goal, which was very suitable for direct free kicks.

This time, the team's first free kicker Lanlot did not go over to ask for the right to take the free kick immediately, but walked to Jiang Xiaolin and whispered: "Jiang, how about you take this ball?"

Jiang Xiaolin was stunned for a moment and asked: "Why? I haven't practiced free kicks! I don't understand the arc."

Lanlot said: "It doesn't matter if you haven't practiced free kicks. Aren't you very good at shooting and can almost shoot wherever you point? Just shoot at the far end of the blind spot. It's better if you can get it in, but it doesn't matter if you can't."

Jiang Xiaolin was quite moved after hearing this.

Because he didn't know how to use a curve ball, he couldn't hit the near corner blocked by the wall, but he could hit the far corner.

Although in general, the wall blocks the near corner and the goalkeeper guards the far corner.

But in real games, players who take free kicks usually use curves to hit the near corner, because the distance is short and the goalkeeper has less time to save the ball.

Because of this, the goalkeeper standing at the far end of the goal usually rushes to the near end as soon as possible.

If Lanlot gives himself a cover to attract the goalkeeper to move to the near end first, and then he follows up to hit the far corner, it may not be impossible to score.

So Jiang Xiaolin nodded and agreed.

Jiang Xiaolin and Lanlot both stood behind the ball, and it seemed that they would take the penalty kick.

This did give Ajax goalkeeper Augusta some confusion.

Because everyone knows that the first free kicker of the Alkmaar Youth Team is Lanlot. Generally speaking, even if there is a cover, it is Lanlot who will take the free kick in the end.

And Lanlot's free kicks are mostly played at the near corner.

If only Lanlot takes the free kick, Augusta can rush to the near end without hesitation at the first time.

But now there is one more Jiang Xiaolin, which makes Augusta feel entangled.

In the previous games, Jiang Xiaolin had never taken a free kick, and Ajax did not have any information about Jiang Xiaolin. Augusta did not know the level and habits of Jiang Xiaolin's free kick.

He only knew that Jiang Xiaolin's shooting skills were quite superb.

This can be seen from the fact that he scored twice in the 45th minute of his debut in the last round and scored a hat trick in the 13th minute of this game.

This caused considerable psychological pressure on Augusta.

Originally facing a situation of 0-3 behind, now he has to face the situation of not knowing who will really take the free kick between Jiang Xiaolin and Lanlot.Augusta was quite embarrassed by the confusion of who was taking the free kick.

But Jiang Xiaolin and Lanlot did not give Augusta time to carefully consider and judge.

After the referee indicated that the free kick could be taken, Lanlot took the lead and started running.

After Lanlot started, Jiang Xiaolin followed closely and started running.

After a few steps of running, Lanlot approached the football and made a shooting motion, which caused some players in the wall to jump up nervously.

But in fact, Lanlot did not kick the ball, but stepped over it.

This was a fake move.

But this fake move still deceived many people, including goalkeeper Augusta.

Although Augusta guessed in his heart that Jiang Xiaolin might take the penalty, he was not sure.

His subconscious understanding was that Lanlot was the first free kicker of Alkmaar.

Therefore, when Augusta saw Lanlotte take the action of shooting, his heart almost subconsciously tightened, and then his body involuntarily moved one step closer.

After he took this step, he found that Lanlotte did not shoot, but stepped over the ball and moved aside.

It was Jiang Xiaolin who shot the ball.

Jiang Xiaolin, who was following Lanlotte, used all his strength to kick the ball hard.

The ball instantly left the ground, flew over the right side of the wall, and headed straight for the upper right corner of the goal with great force.

Augusta, who was moving closer, changed his face, braked and stopped, turned around and wanted to move two steps before jumping up to save the ball.

But the inertia of his body that was jumping to the left caused him to brake and turn around a little slower this time.

After finding that Jiang Xiaolin's shot was powerful and fast, Augusta knew that he didn't have time to move back two steps before jumping up to save the ball.

Therefore, Augusta could only jump up hastily to save the ball after only moving one step back.

But Jiang Xiaolin's shot went straight to the dead corner.

Augusta did not move far enough and did not jump high enough, so he could not reach the ball at all.

The ball flew past his palm diagonally and went straight to the upper right corner of the goal.
