Chapter 104 - I can definitely do it!
Yang Yang had long expected that one day he would face the opponent’s close snatch, but he didn’t expect that day would come so fast.
Facing Van Halen’s close defense, he really didn’t know what kind of response he should give.
happy?
It’s a bit, after all, this is a targeted tactic from the Dutch giant Feyenoord.
But more still helpless, because he hopes to help the team.
In less than ten minutes, Yang Yang tried many ways to catch the ball, but no one was able to get rid of Van Hallen.
This Feyenoord left-back gave Yang Yang the feeling that Van Malvik sent him on the field. The only task was to keep up with Yang Yang, and he could do nothing else.
Faced with such a defensive approach, Yang Yang is really not too effective.
He tried to retreat with his teammates and also fought behind him, but none of them worked.
Van Halen’s defensive strategy is to be able to follow the rules, but not foul, and his foul moves are very secretive. The referee will blow, but will not give the card, even the warning is not given.
Yang Yang is also the first to encounter such a difficult opponent.
And he also knows that this is a test for him.

“De Jong is still not active on the right.”
On the grandstand of the Amsterdam Arena, technical director Van Gaal frowned deeply and sighed.
Yang Yang was stared to death by Van Hallen in the frontcourt. If De Jong can step forward to help, Ajax’s right attack will be more improved, but De Jong always stays behind.
Of course, the advantage is that Feyenoord’s genius Van Persie has difficulty getting space.
“If Trabelsi is here, I believe he should be more courageous.” Chairman Van Prager said.
Van Gaal nodded slightly, and sometimes the offense was risky.
Ajax ’s football philosophy is creativity, which is to be adventurous, but De Jong is a defensive player.
“What’s wrong with the negotiations over Brazil?” Van Prager asked with concern.
Tunisia has performed well in the African Cup. According to the current situation, at least for more than half a month, Trabelsi is difficult to return to the team. The original Ajax plan was to introduce one before the winter break. Right-back, and has locked up Cruzeiro’s Mauriño, but still failed to complete the transfer.
This led to Coman having to allow De Jong to play right-back.
“Crucero knew we were in a hurry, and the asking price was a little high, and their willingness to sell Mauriño was not very strong.” Van Gaal explained lightly, “You know, we will not be too much for a right back. High price. “
Fan Prag nodded helplessly, anyway the transfer market has been closed, even if you want to recruit too late.
“I still have to hurry. Trabelsi has performed very well in the Africa Cup. It is estimated that we will not be able to keep it this summer.”
“Relax, Brazil is full of talent, and we are starting to consider a replacement plan.”
Van Prag reported with a reluctant smile, “The other three teams in the semifinals of the Dutch Cup are not strong. If they can beat Feyenoord in this game, we are the most promising to win the championship.”
Van Gaal understood what Van Prag meant. The league was very entangled with Eindhoven. The Champions League is not expected. It is a blessing to be able to enter the knockout round. Only to win the Dutch Cup as quickly as possible. The season is a stable foundation.
“He has never disappointed me, and I believe it will be the same tonight.”
“You are full of confidence in him.”
“Of course, if one day I leave Ajax to coach other teams, the first person I want to buy is him.”
There was a faint flash of light in Van Prager’s eyes. He knew that Van Gaal was not a fool. On the contrary, Van Gaal was very clever and very thorough in looking at things, just a little arrogant.
“Then you should start to renew the contract with him.” Van Prag laughed.
The implication is that Van Gaal personally cut off his thoughts.
Van Gaal smiled slightly.
At the stadium, the referee finally sounded the whistle at the end of the game.
After three minutes of stoppage time, the regular 90-minute game was finally over.

“That guy is very dirty and has a lot of small movements.”
Yang Yang squeezed the water bottle vigorously, letting the water dig into his mouth from the nozzle, and vaguely introduced Luther Carol to the situation he was facing.
“That’s right. Dirty is normal.” Luther Carroll was not surprised at all. “You know, professional football is about killing opponents with all their means. Victory is everything. If you can’t win, what do you do? Will not be admitted, understand? “
Yang Yang nodded vigorously, he was not pedantic, although he didn’t bother to do things he didn’t like, not to mention he didn’t like to lose at all, he hated to lose.
“I told you that you will encounter this situation sooner or later. The opponents in the first few games do not understand you. Some teams may not even have studied you at all, but tonight is different. Feyenoord must be very deep. After studying you carefully, you have to be mentally prepared for the difficulty of the game. “
Yang Yang nodded heavily, even if he hadn’t before, he must have now.
“Now you are the team with the most physical fitness and the team’s last hope. How to open the situation on the right, you must have enough ideas, keep your mind clear at all times, and you must not be chaotic. calm.”
Yang Yang nodded non-stop while drinking water.
Luther Carol patted Yang Yang’s shoulder gently, motioning him to go to Ronald Coleman.
There is only a five-minute break between regular games and overtime, and you can’t return to the locker room. Everything must be explained clearly on the court.
Coach Coman gave Yang Yang the last precious substitution, and the answer is already very clear. He pinned the team’s last hope on Yang Yang, so now for Ajax, the most important How to activate Yang Yang?
Coman made Ibrahimovic and Sneijder as close as possible to Yang Yang, trying to give more support, trying more behind the ball, so that Yang Yang can hit the front, instead of always holding the ball in his back .
“I tried it several times and failed.” Sneijder shook his head breathlessly.
After playing the game for ninety minutes, everyone’s physical energy was almost consumed.
Keman also frowned, turning his head to look at Yang Yang, “Yang, what do you suggest?”
Yang Yang looked at his teammates around him. He found that everyone was looking at himself. Captain Van der Vaart was notoriously poor in physical fitness. Now his face is a little white, and I do n’t know if he can finish the overtime. This makes him feel The pressure on my shoulders.
He played Bruges in the final game of the UEFA Champions League group stage. He also came off the bench at the last minute, but the situation at that time was very different from now. At that time, everyone gave up, no one had high hopes for him, but now, everyone Looking at him, he was waiting for him to give an answer.
If he says now that he is not sure, then the morale of the team will fall sharply and the game will be lost even without kicking.
But he couldn’t say that.
This is not his style.
He wants to win, he hates failure.
“Everyone doesn’t need to get close to me, it’s better to save my physical strength, and I expand my range of activities and pull more to the opponent’s rib. As long as I can get a little time and space, I can take the ball out.
When Yang Yang said this, his expression was very firm, very confident, and there was no flash in his eyes.
He is really sure.
Of course, the premise is that he must have time and space.
If it were still the same as it was just now, Van Halen was clinging in steplessly, and he really had no good way.
“Do you have enough energy?” Coman asked.
“No problem.” Yang Yang answered confidently.
At the earliest time in Almere, physical strength and speed were his advantages.
“How sure?” Coman asked.
Everyone looked at Yang Yang again, and their eyes were waiting for hope.
“I can do it!” Yang Yang gritted his teeth without hesitation.
Ronald Coman looked at Yang Yang deeply, hesitated, and finally gritted his teeth, nodded and said, “Okay, then do what you say, I believe you can do it.”
The head coach expressed his opinion, and no one else had any opinions.
At this time, only Yang Yang has the ability to bring the ball to the frontcourt.
“Good brother, I’m waiting for you in front, as long as you take the ball out and pass it to me, I promise to kill him!” Ibrahimović was also tired, but he still said his teeth.
Although he has scored a goal, he is also depressed enough in this game.
“I will be ready at any time later,” Wesley Song assured.
“I’ll pass you the ball.” Sneijder and Yang Yang gave each other a hug.
“I’m slower and play the second wave.” Van der Vaart also stated.
“Leave it to me later.” This is De Jong.
“Good brother.” Fairmaren came and said nothing, but hugged Yang Yang.
At this moment, the Belgian central defender really understood why Yang Yang could be integrated into the first team so quickly and was accepted by everyone, because he dared to act at a critical moment.
Success and failure are very common things on the football field, but the role of the key moment is the most precious trait of a player, and Fairmaren saw this from Yang Yang.
At the same time, there is also a strong desire for victory revealed in his tone and expression.
At this time of the game, the players most often need the so-called technical tactics. Those things can’t help the team at all. All people need is hope.
A hope that makes everyone believe firmly.
“Come on, everyone, we work together, I believe that the final victory must belong to us.”
Head coach Ronald Coman came over and reached out his right hand.
Yang Yang, Ibrahimovic, Sneijder and other players extended their hands one after another, and fell on the backs of the heads of coaches and teammates. Then, “Come on! Come on !!! Come on !!!”
As everyone shook hands vigorously, the Ajax players walked back to the court.
In the stands, Ajax fans also felt the determination of the players, and the sound of shouting and cheering became louder and resounded throughout the Amsterdam Arena.
