On the evening of August 13, 2005, Amsterdam Arena.
In the first round of the Dutch League, Ajax faced The Hague at home.
The difference between the strength of the two teams in this game is relatively large. Ajax is at home and it is not difficult to win the Hague, but everyone is still not worried.
The main reason is that Ajax's recent condition is not good enough and stable enough.
The first round of the new season is not easy to play, both sides have not yet entered the rhythm of the season, the upset is not uncommon.
For example, Eindhoven was beaten one-on-one by the newly promoted Hercules. After losing the Dutch Super Cup, Hiddink's team still failed to get out of the predicament and began to lose points in the first round.
Will Ajax repeat Eindhoven?
Yang Yang, who was very eye-catching last season, can not continue his excellent performance?
All of this will start from this game and slowly open the curtain.
...
Ronald Coleman was placed in the four three three lineup.
The goalkeeper is Stecklenberg, and the back line is a combination of Felipe Lewis, Vlar, Heitinga and Maicon.
Maxwell suffered a slight injury after playing the Eindhoven Super Cup, but Kruitenberg failed, so he was excluded from the big list and replaced by Felipe Luis, a Brazilian compatriot.
The midfield is a combination of Yaya Touré, De Jong and Sneijder, and the frontcourt is Pinar, Charles Stasi and Yang Yang.
This is also the strongest lineup that Ajax can put out.
Judging from the tactical arrangement before the game, Ronald Coleman wholeheartedly wants to win the Hague at home and get a good start.
...
The Hague coach Frans Adrar is not a rookie. He also knows the importance of the first round of the league. He knows Ajax's abacus, so he is also very careful and careful, and he plays against a five-back lineup , Determined to defend counterattack.
Ajax put a big pressure on it, taking high center Charlie Steas as the arrow, and suppressed the defense of the Hague team.
Pinal and Yang Yang are on the wings, while Yaya Touré, De Jong and Sneijder are pushing forward in the midfield.
From the beginning, Ajax played a very determined high position to force the oppression and strive to win The Hague from the beginning.
But the Hague is not a fuel-efficient lamp, the defense was very tight at the beginning.
Yang Yang's condition is clearly picking up, and he is more active than in the Super Bowl.
At the start of the game eight minutes, he forcibly made a cross on the right, but the Hague central defender in the penalty area made a big foot and the ball went out of bounds, winning Ajax a chance to set the ball on the right side of the penalty area.
…………
…………
"I come!"
McKon ran forward from behind quickly, beckoning that he would take the free throw.
Yang Yang, who had just wanted to throw out the ball just now, no longer insisted after seeing that the Hague had organized a defense line. He handed the ball to Maicon and turned back to the court.
The Defensive Players of the Hague team are facing a big enemy, blocking all the angles of Maicon's tossing, and even dare not carelessly in the penalty area, for fear that Maicon will directly throw the ball into the penalty area.
In the area on the right side of the penalty area, there are five defensive players of the Hague team, but there are only three offensive players including Maicon.
Yang Yang was stopped behind by the defensive player, not struggling, but constantly changing his direction and disturbing the opponent, but at the same time he was also gesturing towards Maikong.
The two worked together for a year on the right, and they were very close to each other.
When the ball was tossed, Yang Yang suddenly turned around in a sudden stop and walked from the right side of the defensive player to the front.
Just at this time, Maicon's hand tossed the ball and came to his feet.
In this game, Yang Yang is the left-back, the Polish player Thomas Rizaza, 32 years old, has rich experience. He has been playing in Heerenveen before, but he can't play the game, and he moved to The Hague this season.
He has been keeping Yang Yang cautiously all the time, for fear of inadvertently leaking people, but unexpectedly, Yang Yang quickly walked forward.
This Chinese is too flexible and too fast, just like a loach.
But this Polish left back is not stupid. He has played for Feyenoord for four years. He still has some strength. He quickly chose to withstand Yang Yang from behind, even if he couldn't stop him from catching the ball, he should not be able to. Turn around.
As long as he can't turn around, Yang Yang can't make a threat.
Yang Yang was also very clear about the opponent's thoughts. He blocked Rizaza with his body, stopped the ball back to Maicon, and turned and ran away.
Rizaza had no choice but to rush towards Maicon for the first time.
If at this time, he does not defend Maicon for the first time, the Brazilian right-back must be a bottom pass. There is a center like Charles Steas in the penalty area. Who dares to let him pass?
Rizaza stepped forward to defend Maikong, and then behind him there must be a player to pick up his class and defend Yang Yang.
There was a slight gap between the two defensive players.
Yang Yang rushed to the bottom line after bypassing Rizaza.
Mai Kong also picked up the bottom line with his heart.
The ball arrives, the man arrives.
When Yang Yang stopped the ball, he rushed into the penalty area and blocked the Hague's central defender with his body.
The improvement of physical fitness was manifested at this time.
The Hague's central defender wanted to squeeze him, but he was unimpressed. Instead, he suddenly accelerated and flung him away into the penalty area.
At this time, another central defender of the Hague team quickly rushed from the middle.
Yang Yang drove the ball all the way into the penalty area from the bottom line. He kept observing the situation around him, especially paying attention to his opponent's actions through God's vision.
The Hague goalkeeper Dorus De Vries is only 1.8 meters tall, and is relatively short in the goalkeeper. At this time, he was almost next to the right post, squatting and squatting, his hands were almost hanging Arriving on the ground, blocked every angle of Yang Yang's shot and was able to make a flying save at any time.
In fact, from the bottom line to kill the ball, the shooting angle is already very small, Yang Yang's best choice is to pass the ball to his teammates.
Everyone on the field thinks so.
But Yang Yang noticed a very obvious gap at that moment, that is the goalkeeper De Vries.
In order to block all the shooting angles of his lower body, his hands were too low and his waist was bent down, so that the gap above his head was exposed, after all, his height was there.
Yang Yang realized this, he almost did not think about it, and he was not even prepared to rush the ball into the small penalty area, directly out of the small penalty area outrageous shot.
Everyone at the scene hadn't responded, and even goalkeeper De Vries was surprised.
The ball was already passing the top of his head at a very fast speed and hit the side net of the left post behind him!
"Goalllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll !!!!!!"
"In the eighth minute, Ajax took the lead to score!"
"A near-zero shot from Yang Yang!"
"God, this will definitely be the most exciting goal score in this round of the Dutch League!"
"Yang Yang forcibly entered the penalty area after cooperating with Maikong on the right, without any hesitation, directly kicked the ball and shot a surprisingly zero-angle shot!"
After Yang Yang scored, he excitedly rushed out of the stadium, jumped over the billboard on the sidelines, rushed directly to the opposite side of the fans' stands, glided with open arms, and finally knelt in front of the fans stands.
More than 50,000 fans shouted Yang Yang's name with a hoarse noise!
All of them have been waiting for his goal, waiting for him to recover his state!
They have even made psychological preparations for Yang Yang unable to score in the first round of the new season.
Unexpectedly, Yang Yang brought them such a huge surprise at the opening.
"The Hague's defense has always been pretty good, but Ajax played more aggressively in this game."
"We can see that from the beginning of the game, the home team put a lot of pressure on the Hague team to suppress it at halftime.
"Yang Yang's attack was indeed very eye-catching, fully reflecting his personal game strength. In a flash, he caught the loophole of the opponent's defense and used his personal ability to create goals and score."
"We can also see that Yang Yang's state is rapidly picking up. I believe we can quickly see the Yang Yang that is so desperate!"
...
In the crowd of cheers, Ajax players rushed to Yang Yang, all celebrating his goal.
This is Ajax's first goal of the new season, and it's still somewhat memorable.
Sneijder wrapped up Yang Yang's neck, and said sorrowfully, "I clearly have raised my hand, why don't you pass it on to me?"
Yang Yang laughed.
Before the game, Ajax was betting in the dressing room to see who could score this first goal. Sneijder was also one of the popular candidates.
"I saw that you ran well. I originally wanted to pass on, but I felt more confident." Yang Yang said straightforwardly. Anyway, he has already entered. Who knows how much confidence?
Zero angle ... more sure?
Sneijder couldn't bear it anymore. There was a mad urge.
His opportunity is clearly better.
Yang Yang laughed and hugged Sneijder's shoulders, turning his head to look at the sad Hedinga.
"Thank you, John, remember me eating."
Haitinga bet that Yang Yang could not score the first goal, and Yang Yang thought it was ok, both sides bet.
Ajax's captain on the field squeezed his nose and scolded angrily. It was really a bunch of waste. Four or five people couldn't stop him. They didn't know what they were eating.
But this guy got used to it, and threw a sentence directly, "No money, owe it first, and wait until the salary is paid."
This became Yang Yang and Sneijder dumbfounded.
This is only the thirteenth, no money?
However, this is really in line with Heitinga's style. This guy is used to spending a lot of money and has a virtue with Ibrahimovic. At the beginning of the month, he is an uncle, and he has to start pretending to be a grandson.
I do n’t know what to do with the money this month?
Ajax was the first to score and scored a morale.
After Yang Yang celebrated with his teammates one by one, he greeted his teammates to return to the game.
In this game, Ajax not only wants to win, but also wins beautiful and wins a lot of hearts.
Only in this way can Ronald Coman insist on the current set of kicks.
