Chapter 210 A Good Start

Herrols Castle Stadium, home of Twente, in Enschede, the Netherlands.

In the visiting team's locker room, Yang Yang was sitting in his seat, tying the shoelaces of the red boots on his feet.

The boot has a black hook on the side that anyone can recognize at a glance, which is a Nike logo.

And the one worn by Yang Yang is exactly the second generation of assassins Nike tailored according to his size.

This was sent to Amsterdam in a hurry yesterday. In the next three years, Yang Yang will wear Nike boots to compete in the green field.

To talk about the difference between Nike's Assassin series and Adidas' F50, Yang Yang really can't feel it, the comfort is similar, and the flexibility is similar, there is really not much difference.

Of course, if you insist, it must be the psychological effect of more money and less money.

Yang Yang is no stranger to Twente who will face tonight.

Last season, he scored his first professional league goal against Twente.

That goal set the record for the youngest scorer in the Eredivisie League and made Yang Yang famous.

After more than half a year, when he returned to the Herrols Castle Stadium, Yang Yang also had a somewhat special feeling.

Times have changed, and now Twente has changed coaches. Last season's assistant coach Rini Cologne was righted. At that time, Yang Yang's left-back Helbeck would not be there tonight. Instead, he was replaced by a younger two. Eleven-year-old Ramon Zemo, who was Helbeck's substitute last season.

After all, it is the first game of the new season, and everyone at Ajax attaches great importance to it.

Koeman also played the main force in this game. The goalkeeper is Stekelenburg, the back line is Maxwell, Fermaelen, Heitinga and Maicon, and the midfielder is Galasek. , Pinar and Sneijder are in the middle, and the front three are Wesley Sunk, Charlie Steas and Yang Yang.

No wonder Koeman attaches so much importance, mainly to the team's first official game of the new season. In the Dutch Super Cup, they lost 2-4 to their opponents, although they were beaten by the opponent three times in a row in the last three minutes. , but it doesn't look good.

Whether it is the pre-season warm-up match, the Amsterdam Invitational, or the Dutch Super Cup, Ajax's new season has exposed a series of problems, the offensive end is not sharp enough, and the defensive end is not strong enough.

The departure of Ibrahimovic and Van der Vaart had a great impact on the team's offense. In addition, Yang Yang was participating in the Asian Cup at the time, and the team's offense was greatly affected.

The same is true for the problem of defense. The departure of Robonte, Escud and Trabelsi has forced the team's defense to reorganize. Maicon's defensive ability is also a problem.

As for Fermaelen, he performed well last season, but if he wants to be on his own this season, he still needs to show better performance.

And the first game of the new season, Twente, which is difficult to deal with away from home, is indeed difficult to reassure.

…………

…………

"The players of the two teams walked into the field one after another under the leadership of referee Luther Bosen."

"There was an immediate round of applause from the home team's fans, who clearly wanted Twente to have a good start to the new season."

"And we saw a lot of fans from Amsterdam at the scene, and they played the banner of Yang Yang."

"Tonight, Yang Yang, who has just returned to the team, will start for Ajax, which surprised many of us."

"In the last season, Yang Yang was more of a substitute for the team. Although he also started, he was more active in the second half."

"Ajax was able to beat Porto and win the treble at the last moment, Yang Yang can be said to be a great contributor, and this year, Ronald Koeman is obviously trying to straighten Yang Yang, after all, he will soon be eighteen Years old."

"In both the Toulon Cup and the Asian Cup this summer, Yang Yang performed very well, especially in the Asian Cup, he was elected as the best player in the Asian Cup, which is indeed a great achievement for Yang Yang, who is only 17 years old. Pretty rare."

"But there are also many people who worry that Yang Yang's early performance in the Asian Cup will affect his performance in the new season?"

"Let's wait and see for tonight's game."

…………

…………

With the whistle of the referee Luther Bosen, the game officially kicked off.

Charlie Steas quickly kicked the ball to Wesley Sonk, and the Belgian striker returned to midfield and back to the backline.

Ajax did not rush to attack at the beginning, but patiently passed the ball in the backcourt.

Twente intends to take advantage of the opening momentum and take the initiative to put pressure on Ajax.

After several passes, Maicon got the ball on the right, kicked it forward, and sent it to Yang Yang on the right.

Yang Yang took the ball with his back, and behind him was the defender Ramon Zemo. He didn't dare to let the ball stay under his feet, and quickly knocked it back to Sneijder, but he suddenly turned around and sprinted behind him.

Sneijder understood, and with a half-high ball, crossed Twente's line of defense and fell behind him.

"Ajax made a quick threat from the start."

"Yang Yang caught the ball on the right, Twente's defender was chasing it back, and Yang Yang passed to the back point."

"Wesley Sunk follow up and hit the door directly!"

After an exclamation, all Twente fans breathed a sigh of relief.

In the face of Yang Yang's pass, Song Ke did not stop the ball, but played directly, which caused him to fail to suppress the ball and hit it high.

Wasting a good opportunity, the Belgian himself was a little depressed, but still gave a thumbs up to Yang Yang.

This ball is really not Yang Yang's responsibility, mainly because he didn't handle it well.

…………

…………

After being beaten by Ajax, Twente didn't dare to blindly snatch anymore, and began to consciously shrink the defense.

Whether it was from the information before the game or the duel practice in the super training ground last night, Yang Yang understood the characteristics of Ramon Zemo.

His defensive ability is good, and he has obvious advantages in defending high balls. This has a certain relationship with his good at playing central defenders, but his speed is slow and inflexible, which makes it easy for him to be thrown away the moment Yang Yang turns around.

The one just now was the best example.

But unfortunately, Songk failed to seize the opportunity, otherwise, the game would be much easier to play.

Now, with Twente's attention, Ajax's attack is also in trouble.

Yang Yang also began to feel what Ronald Koeman said to him, and the opponent began to strengthen his defense and paid more attention to him.

He is very clear that this is a stage that he must go through, and he must break through the opponent's attention and layers of defense to prove his strength before he is eligible to get the starting Ajax, and this one The number eleven jersey.

In this case, Yang Yang started to become more active.

Although he had just played the Asian Cup final a week ago, although he had traveled thousands of kilometers and flew back to Amsterdam, although he knew very well that no one would criticize him even if he did not perform well, he still gave his best.

He never played for others, he played for himself.

Constantly surpassing himself, breaking through himself, that is what he wants most.

With a firm mind, Yang Yang was also very involved on the court, actively interspersed with short runs, and patiently waited for opportunities.

But Twente is not a fuel-efficient lamp either. This season, under the training of Cologne, the defensive strength has been greatly improved. The pre-season has been well received, and this time against Ajax, it was hard to support. half an hour.

It wasn't until the thirty-first minute that Yang Yang found a gap in Twente's defense.

With a pass from the backcourt, Charlie Steas in the penalty area grabbed the first spot, and the header was ferried to Yang Yang at the front of the penalty area.

Facing the incoming ball, Yang Yang dunked with his left foot, and dunked the Twente player who was returning to the defense. After bringing the ball into the penalty area, he grabbed the ball before Zemo came up to block it, and volleyed the ball vigorously with his right foot. Go straight to the goal.

The goalkeeper flew to make a save, but still failed to prevent the ball from entering the net.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"In the 31st minute of the first half, Ajax finally scored Twente's goal!"

"The goal from the seventeen-year-old Yang Yang is one to zero!"

"This is also Ajax's first league goal in the new season, a good start!"

After Yang Yang scored the goal, he quickly turned around and rushed out of the stadium. He rushed all the way to the bottom of the stand where the Ajax fans were. He opened his arms high and asked all the Ajax fans for their applause and cheers.

In the stands, the Ajax fans were not stingy, giving out huge cheers, even overshadowing the home fans.

Behind Yang Yang, the Ajax players also swarmed up and surrounded him.

"No one should doubt now that Yang Yang is becoming an increasingly important key player for this Ajax team."

"In the first 30 minutes, Ajax had the advantage, but they were not able to score."

"The most threatening shot also came from Yang Yang's pass. Wesley Songk failed to suppress the ball, and then Yang Yang also tried to create opportunities, but failed to break the deadlock."

"Perhaps seeing that his teammates are not very good, Yang Yang simply went on his own and scored Ajax's first goal of the new season, and it was also Yang Yang's first league goal this season."

"I believe that the game has played so far, and the worry about Yang Yang can come to an end."

"We can tell you with certainty that from the first 30 minutes, Yang Yang has basically continued the excellent state of the Asian Cup, and his return is bound to drive Ajax's offense."

…………

…………

After taking a one-goal lead, Yang Yang was obviously not satisfied.

He was well aware that 1-0 was not a safe bet and that Ajax had enough to keep scoring goals.

It also proved difficult for Twente to focus on defending when the goal broke the deadlock.

Nine minutes later, Yang Yang got another opportunity on the right. After receiving a through ball from Sneijder, he threw off Zemo, dashed the ball to the right side of the penalty area, and passed the low ball to the back point.

This time Wesley Sonk finally didn't miss his chance, pushing the ball from close range and sending the ball into Twente's goal.

Two to zero!

After that, Ajax continued to work hard, and the attack became smoother and smoother.

At one minute of stoppage time, Yang Yang dribbled the ball on the right and forced a breakthrough. After attracting Zemo's attention, he suddenly passed back to Maicon who was inserted in the back row. The Brazilian right back crossed the penalty area at 45 degrees. Charlie Steas headed in from close range.

Three to zero!
