Chapter 211 Can't Keep People
Three to two, narrow victory!
The day after the first round, the major Dutch media all paid attention to the debut of the triple crown Ajax in the new season.
After selling a number of key core players this summer, the strength of Ajax has been greatly affected. This is a well-known fact, and it is also inevitable for the Eredivisie team. Some people have even done Ajax well. Sri Lanka's mental preparation for losing the first game of the new season.
"The first 30 minutes of the game really went as many people expected. Ajax's attack was not smooth, and they won't score, but this situation changed in the 30th minute."
"Yang Yang scored Twente's goal with a wonderful goal."
"This is a reflection of his personal ability, especially when he dunked defenders and dribbled the ball into the penalty area, he handled it very calmly and had the potential to be a cold-blooded killer."
"Afterwards, Ajax's offense became smoother and smoother. Yang Yang first assisted Wesley Sonke's goal, and then planned Charlesteas' goal. It can be said that Ajax's first half The three goals on the field are inseparable from Yang Yang."
The turning point of the game came in the second half.
"In the 60th minute, Ronald Koeman replaced Yang Yang with De Moore. This substitution became a turning point in the game."
"According to what Koeman said after the game, he was considering Yang Yang's long journey, his physical condition has not been fully adjusted, and he was relatively young, so he was only allowed to play for 60 minutes."
"After Yang Yang came off, Ajax's right flank lost its threat. Just six minutes later, Twente's left flank pierced through Ajax's right flank, and Maicon's defensive instability was exposed again. "
"After that, Ajax gradually became passive, and in the 76th minute, Nkuf scored again."
Although Ajax retained a victory in the end, everyone clearly saw the defensive weakness of the Eredivisie giants. "
If Ajax's high defense is a long-standing problem, Maicon replaced Trabelsi, which once again exposed the team's right defense.
Of course, everyone also believes that a narrow three-to-two win in the first round of the new season is not an unacceptable result, but if Ronald Koeman's team wants to continue to hit the league championship, they must stabilize their defense as soon as possible. .
As for Yang Yang, with one pass and one shot, he succeeded in convincing everyone that he has the ability to play a more important role in the new season.
Ajax fans and the Dutch media were also amazed at his performance.

…………
Also in the first round of the season, Eindhoven's trajectory is diametrically opposite to that of Ajax.
Ajax led by three goals in the first half, and was chased by opponents for two goals in the second half, which was very embarrassing.
But PSV conceded two goals in the first half, pulled five goals in a row in the second half, and finally beat Rosendahl 5-2 with a hat-trick from Heiselink.
After Robben and Kežman will switch to Chelsea this summer, Eindhoven's attack does not seem to be affected and is still very threatening.
Feyenoord also lost players. Van Persie moved to Arsenal, but Kuyt stayed in the team. The Dutch native scored a hat-trick in the first round to help Feyenoord beat Graf Sharp 6-1.
The first round of the three strong teams all won their opponents and scored three points, but the process is completely different, and the problems reflected are also different.
Whether it is the media or the fans, the overall evaluation of Ajax is behind PSV Eindhoven and Feyenoord.
Only Yang Yang, recognized by everyone, is one of the few bright spots in the team.

Although the Eredivisie stumbled in the first round, it scored three points in the end. After the team resumed training the next morning, the team had a one-day holiday from the afternoon.
It happened to be another weekend, and there were no classes at school, so Yang Yang asked Fermaelen to drive himself to Almere.
After returning to the Netherlands, Yang Yang has been busy adjusting and preparing for the war, and has never had time to return to Almere to visit his aunt. This time he has a holiday, he will definitely come back and visit the Almere club by the way.
John Repp called him before and said that the club would use his photo and name for promotion when recruiting youth training players. Of course, Yang Yang readily agreed, but he was struggling to participate in the Asian Cup at the time. No time to attend.
Now that he is on vacation, he naturally wants to come back for a walk.
It also has a bit of a homecoming feeling.
Although it is a weekend, since Almere also recruits weekend classes and organizes some youth team games on weekends, the club's training base is still very lively.
When Yang Yang suddenly appeared, the atmosphere at the scene became even more enthusiastic. Many Dutch children came to get Yang Yang's autograph and took a photo, and Yang Yang also readily fulfilled their wishes one by one.
"Thanks to you, we have recruited a lot of excellent students this summer." John Rip smiled happily.
Yang Yang walked in the middle of John Repp and Dick Van Poole, shook his head and smiled after listening, "It's all your efforts, what does it have to do with me?"
"Why not?" Dick Van Poole laughed, "Now everyone knows that you came out of our Almere, and the better you are at Ajax, the more famous we will be. Now the kids in the surrounding area like to come to us to play football.”
"Dick is right, so, whether it's for yourself or for us, you have to keep working hard." John Rip encouraged with a smile.
Yang Yang couldn't stop nodding, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
"What's the matter?" John Repp noticed.
"I always feel that the team is much weaker this season than last season," Yang Yang said.
"Normal." John Repp nodded, "You have to know that five absolute main players have left in one summer. How can it be said that they are not weak? Moreover, even if the strength of the players brought in is comparable to the players who left, who can Guarantee that they can quickly integrate into the team and play at their level?"
"Besides, it's hard to say what the new players from Ajax will do in the future, but in terms of pre-season and first-round performances, they are not as good as the players who left, so your feeling is not wrong at all."
Yang Yang himself also guessed the reason.
Whether it's Charistias, Pinar, Maicon and Fermaelen, they are indeed inferior to Ibrahimovic, Van der Vaart, Trabelsi and Ace from a purely personal point of view. Kuder, Steckelenberg are also not as good as Robont.
There are only eleven starting players, but five players have been replaced, and the overall strength has dropped a bit. The team will naturally be affected, which is inevitable.
Yang Yang was already mentally prepared for this, but when he was playing Twente, he sat on the sidelines and watched the team lead from 3-0 to 3-2 all the way by the opponent, and finally almost equalized. feel bad.
"After Van Gaal's reform, Ajax is now taking the business line of cultivating young players. You have to get used to this change. I believe that every season in the future, even during the winter break, teammates will leave the team at any time. No one can change the current predicament of the League One."
Ajax left five core generals and many first-team players, Eindhoven also sent away Kežman and Robben, and Feyenoord had to sell Van Persie...
John Repp is absolutely right, the Eredivisie simply cannot keep players.
This made Yang Yang have a strange thought in his heart.
"Work hard, improve your strength as soon as possible, and do your best, there is no need to put too much pressure on yourself." John Repp comforted.
Yang Yang understands this, but he just doesn't like losing.
It's really hard to lose.
…………
…………
It was rare for Yang Yang to come back. It happened that cousin Shen Yuzhu and Wei Zheng were both there. Uncle Shen Ming cooked in person, specially accommodated Yang Yang's eating habits, and prepared a sumptuous dinner. The family gathered around a table and ate happily.
Wei Zheng and Shen Yuzhu will continue to stay in Europe for a while, and may leave in early September for the time being, and Yang Yang will also return to China at that time to prepare for the Asian Youth Championship, so they are likely to be on the same road again.
When the family dinner was over, Henk Dimer and Nick and other teammates from the Almere period received news of Yang Yang's return, and they came to the door one after another. When they saw Yang Yang, they were full of admiration and sigh.
Although they have long been accustomed to Yang Yang's transformation, every time they see Yang Yang, they can't help but praise him.
He won the best player in the Asian Cup at the age of 17, and the Eredivisie made one pass and one shot in the first round of the new season. Next, he will play the European Super Cup and the Toyota Cup. These events are the top stages that countless professional players dream of. .
This makes Henk Dimmel and others feel unbelievable just thinking about it.
If it was last year, they would not have thought that Yang Yang would be today, it would be like a dream.
Along with Henk Dimel and Nick, there are two or three players who have been on loan from the Ajax youth academy. Most of them were from the former Ajax youth team and are now on loan to Al Ajax. Mailer came here to meet Yang Yang.
From the mouths of Henk Dimer and others, Yang Yang learned that John Repp is ambitious and wants to hit the Dutch League in the new season, so the players on loan from Ajax are all selected by him in the past. Not weak.
During the chat, Yang Yang himself felt the changes in the world.
At the beginning, his biggest dream was to stay in Almere, enter the first team, and help Almere hit the Netherlands. But who would have thought that instead of staying in Almere, he went to Ajax, and suddenly The second team entered the first team, played from the Eredivisie to the Champions League, and finally won the Champions League.
Looking back and thinking about it, he himself felt like a dream.
But looking back on it, he also cherishes it. It was hard-won for him to get to where he is today. It was done by himself, step by step, with blood and sweat. No matter how difficult or strong he encountered, he would always Never let yourself give up easily.
If you lose the game, you can find another chance to win it back, but if something is given up, there is really no going back.
