Chapter 7

In the next few days, Jiang Xiaolin served dishes in the restaurant. He attended the team training for two mornings.

Amateur teams are naturally not as professional as professional clubs.

Most of the players in the Pulmès team are part-time. It is difficult to get enough players except for the weekend league. Even the 7-a-side training matches are difficult to play. Even if a few players come to the training field, they practice separately to reserve physical strength.

Therefore, no one knows the changes of Jiang Xiaolin, and he himself can't feel how the ballless running at 19 o'clock is.

A week passed in a blink of an eye. It was another Sunday. Pulmès challenged Bonigom away. The venue was a football field about 3 kilometers southwest of Chinatown, which was not very far.

The amateur team of the fourth grade naturally didn't have many club buses. Everyone took a car from home or work to the stadium to gather.

Those who had money took a taxi, those who didn't have money took the bus, and those who really couldn't afford it could walk.

The 3-kilometer journey was not far for Jiang Xiaolin. He could jog there by himself. But this is the Netherlands, and it is an away stadium that he has never been to, so he can't find the way.

Therefore, Jiang Xiaolin had to take a taxi to go there. On the way, he remembered the route along the way, so that he could walk when he came back, saving a lot of money on the fare.

After arriving at the stadium, the coach and most of the teammates had arrived. Everyone changed their clothes and started to warm up before the game.

10 minutes before the game started, everyone was there, and the head coach Van der No called everyone to start arranging tactics.

The starting players were not much different from the last game, only one midfielder was replaced.

Although Jiang Xiaolin scored a goal in the last game, Van der No did not think too highly of him. After all, he didn't know about Jiang Xiaolin's changes and just thought it was luck.

As a striker, it is impossible for people to think highly of him to score only one goal after playing so many games.

Van der No's tactics still let Jiang Xiaolin feint to distract, pull out a gap for Henik, and attack with Henik as the end point.

However, this time Van der No did not specifically tell Jiang Xiaolin not to shoot easily.

The inner meaning is that Jiang Xiaolin should not be polite when he has a chance, and he should shoot when he should, but it was not said explicitly.

This is the change that Jiang Xiaolin got in the last game after scoring a goal.

At 15:00 in the afternoon, with the referee's whistle, the game officially began.

Jiang Xiaolin followed the coach's tactical arrangement and tried his best to pull out of the penalty area, hoping to lead the defender of Bonigom out of the penalty area and leave Henik a gap to shoot.

But this tactic did not succeed.

Although the amateur league does not have the strong intelligence collection ability of the professional league, everyone still needs to ask each other who the opponent's key players are.

Bonigom paid a little attention and knew that Henik, the top scorer in the team of Pulmes, should be their key target.

As for the 16-year-old Chinese Jiang Xiaolin, except for making up the head, in the minds of the coaches and players of the Bonigom team, he is useless and not worth paying attention to at all.

Therefore, no matter how Jiang Xiaolin ran, he attracted very limited attention and could not reduce the defense faced by Henik.

After ten minutes of the game, Henik only had one chance to shoot, and missed.

Of course, Bonigom did not score, and the two sides were still 0-0.

However, in the 13th minute, an accident happened.

The central defender of Pulmes fouled the forward of Bonigom in the penalty area and was awarded a penalty kick.

The opponent took the lead 1-0 in one fell swoop. Dozens of Bonigom fans cheered on the sidelines, and the players of Pulmes were quite depressed.

Only Jiang Xiaolin looked at the penalty area of ​​Bonigom with a light in his eyes.

After more than ten minutes of practice, although Jiang Xiaolin was carrying out the task of pulling the gap for Henik, he found that he always ran into the gap unconsciously, as if it was completely instinctive and involuntarily.

Although no teammates passed the ball to him at that time, Jiang Xiaolin analyzed that if the ball fell to his feet at that time, he would easily shoot, and the opponent could not even interfere: the distance was too far.

Jiang Xiaolin understood the power of the skill of running without the ball.

He decided to take the initiative to ask for the ball next.

…

Just as the Bonigom team celebrated the goal and Jiang Xiaolin was about to take the initiative to ask his teammates for the ball, a middle-aged man in his 40s, car salesman Kenneth, passed by the football field.

Hearing the cheers in the field, Kenneth, who had just concluded a deal and was just passing by, tilted his head and thought for a while. Anyway, he had nothing to do now, so he might as well watch the football game!So, Kenneth walked into the stadium, found a step in the corner, spread a piece of paper and sat down.

At this time, the game on the field started again.

When Jiang Xiaolin subconsciously looked for an opening, he ran out of the opening more often.

After all, the opponent was only a team in the Dutch amateur fourth division league. It was easy for Jiang Xiaolin to deliberately look for an opening with 19 points of off-ball running.

This off-ball running ability is top-notch in the world.

Therefore, less than 3 minutes after the game restarted, Jiang Xiaolin ran out of an opening in the ribs of the penalty area and shouted to his teammate Lanier who had the ball: "Here!"

Lanier looked at Jiang Xiaolin, then looked at Henik on the right, and hesitated for two seconds.

It was during these two seconds of Lanier's hesitation that the opening Jiang Xiaolin ran out of disappeared.

A defender blocked between Jiang Xiaolin and Lanier, and the passing opportunity had disappeared.

Jiang Xiaolin could only sigh and continue to run.

He did not have enough capital to gain the full trust of his teammates, so he could only take it slowly.

The attack by Pulmes failed to pose a threat, and ended with another midfielder's long-range shot hitting the plane.

However, the off-ball running at 19 o'clock meant that Jiang Xiaolin had many opportunities to run into the gap when facing an amateur team like Bonigom that had little tactical discipline.

Soon, Jiang Xiaolin's chance came again.

In the 21st minute, the two sides surrounded the football near the center circle, and four players fought together.

Suddenly, someone kicked the football, and it rolled out of the crowd and rolled towards Pulmes forward Dominic.

Jiang Xiaolin, who was standing on the left side, reacted the fastest. When the ball rolled out of the crowd and rolled towards Dominic, he had already turned and rushed towards the opponent's penalty area, and pointed his finger in the direction of the Bonigom penalty area and shouted: "Dominic, this way!"

Everyone in the audience heard Jiang Xiaolin's shout, but it was too late to stop him.

Although Jiang Xiaolin was not very trusted, Jiang Xiaolin was about to counter-offside at this time, and his chance was much better than that of Henik who was being watched by two people.

Therefore, when Dominic heard Jiang Xiaolin's shout, he did not hesitate or stop the ball, and he made a long pass over the top of the rolling ball.

The ball flew into the air, flew over the head of a Bonigom midfielder, and fell to the front of the penalty area.

At the moment when Dominic passed the ball, Jiang Xiaolin just passed Bonigom's back line and rushed to the landing point of the ball.

The linesman did not raise the flag, this was a successful counter-offside.
