Chapter 237 Marseille Roundabout

"We must completely freeze Yang Yang in the game!"

This is a sentence that Eindhoven coach Hiddink repeatedly warned the players before the Eredivisie Tianwangshan battle.

No one will forget that it was Yang Yang's outstanding performance that helped Ajax beat PSV Eindhoven.

Since that game, Hiddink has listed Yang Yang as one of Ajax's most threatening players.

And this summer, after leaving Van der Vaart and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Yang Yang has become the most lethal player in Ajax and the most feared player in PSV.

Ajax's performance this season is not ideal, especially after entering September, only two of the four games have been drawn, the league points have not risen much, but the ranking has been falling all the way, which has caused Ajax to be overwhelming. accusation.

PSV were originally determined to win the game against Ajax at home, but also full of confidence.

Unexpectedly, after Yang Yang's return, Ajax's performance has improved considerably. First, they beat Roda JC 1-0 in the league, and then beat Tel Aviv 5-0 in the third round of the Champions League. Maccabi.

The two wins have convinced the entire Dutch football world that Ajax is recovering strongly.

Ajax, who has Yang Yang, also showed a strong enough attack, which is dreadful.

Hiddink focused on training the team's left defense before the game, and Li Rongpyo was a key figure in the left defense.

South Korean players were Hiddink’s favorites when he coached the Korean national team. After coming to PSV, they were also valued by Hiddink. They started playing the main force last season, and this season they have become the team’s best player on the left. candidate.

But in Li Rongpyo's heart, there is always a thorn, that is Yang Yang.

The same Asian player, also from East Asia, but Yang Yang completely beat him, the South Korean international, to the ground in the first contest, which caused an uproar in South Korea.

Afterwards, Yang Yang helped Ajax all the way to the Champions League final and won the championship trophy, becoming the first player in Asia to reach the top of the Champions League, which once again sparked heated discussions among Korean domestic media and fans. .

Everyone knows that South Korea has always looked down on Chinese football, and fear of Korean disease is a topic they talk about.

But who would have thought that overnight, a talented rookie better than South Korean players emerged in China.

Just when the Korean media and fans speculated that Yang Yang was probably just a flash in the pan, the 17-year-old Chinese teenager helped the Chinese youth team win the championship in the Toulon Cup after winning the Champions League.

In the subsequent Asian Cup in China, Yang Yang not only helped the Chinese team win the first championship trophy in history, but also defeated Shunsuke Nakamura of Japan and won the title of the best player in the Asian Cup, becoming the youngest Asian Cup ever. best player.

On the other hand, South Korea lost to Japan and was rejected from the final.

This made the Korean media and fans feel that they were beaten in the face, and some even began to worry that if the Korean national team faced the Chinese team, would the fear of Korea be completely broken?

This concern is not without reason.

In the Asian Youth Championship final in September, Yang Yang led the Chinese Youth Team to win the Korean National Youth Team once again, and won the Best Player and Best Scorer awards by himself, becoming a veritable number one rising star in Asia.

It can be said that by this time, everyone has begun to accept the fact that China has produced a genius.

But South Korea is reluctant to admit and accept this fact.

In the new Eredivisie League season, Park Ji-sung and Lee Young-pyo both played the main force in PSV Eindhoven. Facing Ajax and Yang Yang, the enthusiasm of Korean domestic media and fans was unprecedentedly high, and many media even came to the Netherlands. Philip Field to watch the game.

The Korean media have also repeatedly emphasized this Sino-Korea confrontation. They believe that Park Ji-sung and Lee Young-pyo can help PSV Eindhoven defeat Ajax, and Lee Young-pyo, who is opposite Yang Yang, should not give Yang Yang the slightest chance.

In the face of the fanatical media and fans, Li Rongpyo also said in an interview with the authoritative media in Korea before the game, "Please rest assured that all fans, I will not give him any chance in this game, I will completely freeze him!"

In addition to the Korean media, the Dutch domestic media also paid special attention to this game, especially Yang Yang's performance.

Whether or not Yang Yang can be frozen seems to have become the key to Eindhoven's defense.

…………

…………

No matter how well you said it before the game, in the game, you still have to rely on the strength of real swords and real guns to prove it.

Three races, eight days, 20,000 kilometers.

This is all the media's praise for Yang Yang before the game.

After returning to the Netherlands, he played two consecutive games in less than a week. He was a substitute against Roda JC, and Maccabi Tel Aviv, who played in the Champions League in midweek, did not play the full game.

Everyone knows that he has the strength to fight PSV.

Li Rongpyo was full of words, but he didn't dare to be slighted or careless in the game.

He is very clear that as long as there is a slightest bit of paralysis, it is possible that Yang Yang will create an opportunity.

During the game, Li Rongpyo kept reminding himself that he must focus and pay attention. Hiddink even allowed him to stare at Yang Yang full-time, and he could ignore other things.

He also performed his duties very dutifully. He entangled Yang Yang and followed him every step of the way.

Wherever Yang Yang ran, he followed.

He was like a dog-skin plaster stuck to Yang Yang's body, and he couldn't shake it off.

This kind of man-to-man defense made it very difficult for Yang Yang to deal with it. Although he also had several opportunities and created two threats, they were not very good, and his teammates were not able to grasp it.

As for his personal performance, it was limited by Li Rongpyo's personal marking and Hiddink's strict left defense, which made it difficult for Yang Yang to make a difference, and he failed to show his impressive performance throughout the first half.

Li Rongpyo ran for more than 40 minutes, he felt very tired, very tired.

He hadn't felt this way in a long time.

The last time it should have been in the World Cup in Korea and Japan, and what impressed him the most was the game against Spain. He faced the super winger who was famous all over Europe at that time, Joaquin on the right side of Spain.

Like tonight, his nerves were tense throughout the game, he passively followed his opponent, too many emergency stops and turns, too many sudden starts, which made him tired.

But Yang Yang's pressure on him is obviously even greater, because his scope of activities is wider than that of Joaquin.

Li Rongpyo couldn't believe it. He even compared a seventeen-year-old Chinese boy to the Spanish winger who had been famous for many years. He even came to the conclusion that if it was spread, he would definitely laugh at it. How many people's big teeth.

But he really thought so.

Fortunately, the first half is about to end.

I can finally rest and take a breath.

The South Korean left-back thought to himself when he saw the fourth official on the sidelines raise a sign for two minutes of extra time.

But it was just a brief moment of distraction. When he took his eyes back and turned to Yang Yang on the court, he found that no one could be found.

At this moment, he seemed to have fallen into the ice cellar.

…………

…………

Yang Yang was also very tired, and he was already out of breath.

To deal with Li Rongpyo's dead brains, he really had no other way but to run.

Didn't Van Basten say that?

Running offensive players can not hold.

When he saw Maicon getting the ball in the backcourt, he immediately ran back to respond.

The Brazilian right-back played a little conservative tonight, daring not to push too hard, worrying about being behind him.

Maicon did not pass the ball directly to Yang Yang, but to De Jong, who then passed to Yang Yang, forming a triangle pass.

When Yang Yang was about to catch the ball, he found that Li Rongpyo did not entangle him for the first time, which made him overjoyed and successfully caught the ball.

At this time, Li Rongpyo caught up from behind, but because his reaction was a beat slower, he chased a little too hastily.

Yang Yang too knew what to do at this time.

Without waiting for Li Rongpyo to come behind him, Yang Yang quickly turned around and pulled the ball.

"Oh my God, the Marseille roundabout..."

After Yang Yang turned around and threw away Li Rongpyo, he quickly rushed forward with the ball, gritted his teeth, gathered his strength, and the speed became faster and faster.

PSV Eindhoven's delayed midfielder in this game was veteran Cocu, who quickly rushed towards Yang Yang after reacting.

Unexpectedly, without waiting for Keku to get close, Yang Yang quickly made a pendulum swing, swayed left and right with continuous fake movements, directly passed Keku, continued to rush forward with the ball, and went straight to the penalty area.

"Beautiful pendulum!"

"Yang Yang rushed up, passed two Eindhoven players in a row, and slammed into the penalty area."

At this moment, the only player standing in front of Yang Yang was the center-back Alex from Brazil.

The Brazilian central defender who just moved from Brazil Santos to Chelsea this summer, but was sold by Chelsea to PSV Eindhoven in a blink of an eye, kept retreating in the face of the approaching Yang Yang.

The distance between the two is getting closer and closer, and there is a penalty area behind Alex, and he has no way to retreat.

The Brazilian central defender had no choice but to stop and push towards Yang Yang.

He's already the last defensive player, and there's no way to go back.

Yang Yang took the ball and stepped on a skillful pace. Every step he took seemed to come from his instinct.

He clearly saw the changes in Alex, and he also clearly knew the situation he was facing, but he did not intend to give the opponent time to react, and he needed to be strong.

Alex saw that Yang Yang had already rushed into his defense area. When he was about to step forward, he saw Yang Yang's left shoulder suddenly sink, and he immediately realized that this guy's left foot was no worse than his right.

Damn it!

This guy is going to cut in and hit the door!

Almost in an instant, Alex instinctively made a defensive action to block Yang Yang's inward cut, but unexpectedly, Yang Yang suddenly swayed and quickly turned to the outside.

Alex was shocked. He reacted almost immediately, but his body had already made a move, which made him a step slower. When he turned around again, Yang Yang had already passed by him, and he almost turned over. He stretched out his hand, grabbed the jersey behind Yang Yang, and pulled it hard.

With this pull, Yang Yang, who was rushing forward, completely lost his balance, and he fell down.

Alex took the opportunity to rush forward and kicked the ball out of bounds.

And at this moment, the referee's whistle sounded.

Foul ball?
