Chapter 348 Zero-Angle Goal

On the evening of August 13, 2005, Amsterdam Arena.

Ajax hosts The Hague in the first round of the Eredivisie.

The strength of the two teams in this match is quite different. Ajax is playing at home again. It is not difficult to win The Hague, but everyone is still worried.

The main reason is that Ajax has not been in good enough form lately and is not stable enough.

The first round of the new season is not easy to play, and neither side has entered the rhythm of the season, so it is not uncommon to be unpopular.

For example, Eindhoven was tragically drawn 1-1 by newly-promoted Heracles in the away game. 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 do the same thing as Eindhoven?

Yang Yang, who had a very eye-catching performance last season, can he continue his outstanding performance?

All of this will start from this game and slowly open the curtain.

...

Ronald Koeman made a four-three-three lineup.

The goalkeeper is Stekelenburg and the back line is a combination of Felipe Luis, Vlar, Heitinga and Maicon.

Maxwell suffered a minor injury after playing PSV's Super Cup, and Kluitenberg couldn't get through, so he was excluded from the squad and replaced by fellow Brazilian Felipe Luiz.

The midfield is a combination of Yaya Toure, De Jong and Sneijder, and the front is Pinar, Charlie Steas and Yang Yang.

This is also the strongest lineup that Ajax can put out at the moment.

Judging from the tactical arrangement before the game, Ronald Koeman was bent on winning The Hague at home and getting a good start.

...

The head coach of The Hague, Frans Adrar, is not a rookie in the Eredivisie. He is also very aware of the importance of the first round of the league and knows Ajax's abacus, so he also arranged it very carefully and played with a five-back lineup. , determined to defend the counterattack.

Ajax pressed heavily, with high center Charl Steas as an arrow, and pressed the Hague's defense line.

Pinar and Yang Yang were on the flanks, while Yaya Toure, De Jong and Sneijder pressed forward in the midfield.

From the outset, Ajax played a very resolute high pressing to take the Hague from the start.

But The Hague is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the defense was still very tight at the beginning.

Yang Yang's state is obviously picking up one after another, and he is more active than in the Super Cup.

Eight minutes into the game, he forced a cross from the right, but the Hague central defender in the penalty area made a big-footed clearance and the ball went out of bounds, earning Ajax a set-piece opportunity on the right side of the penalty area.

…………

…………

"I come!"

Maicon trotted forward from behind and signaled that he would take the throw-in.

Just now, Yang Yang, who wanted to throw the ball quickly, didn't insist anymore after seeing that The Hague had organized a defensive line. He handed the ball to Maicon, and turned back to the court by himself.

The Hague team's defenders were like a big enemy, blocking all the throw angles of Maicon, and even did not dare to be careless in the penalty area, for fear that Maicon would throw the ball directly into the penalty area.

In the right area of ​​the entire 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 defenders, and he didn't struggle, but kept changing his direction and disturbing the opponent, but at the same time he was also gesturing towards Maicon.

The two have cooperated on the right side for a year, and they are very tacit with each other.

When it was time to drop the ball, Yang Yang suddenly stopped and turned around, from the right side of the defender to the front.

Exactly, at this time, Maicon's hand tossed the ball to his feet.

In this game, it was the left back who was responsible for marking Yang Yang. The Polish player Thomas Rizaza, 32 years old, is very experienced. He had been playing for Heerenveen before, but he was unable to play the game and switched to The Hague this season.

He has always been cautiously sticking to Yang Yang, for fear of accidentally missing someone, but unexpectedly, he was quickly bypassed by Yang Yang.

This Chinese is too nimble and too fast, just like a loach.

But the Polish left-back is not stupid. He has played for Feyenoord for four years, and he still has some strength. He quickly chose to resist Yang Yang from behind. turn around.

As long as he can't turn around, Yang Yang can't make a threat.

Yang Yang is also very aware of the opponent's thoughts. He blocked Rizasa with his body, stopped the ball to Maicon, and turned around and ran away.

Rizasa had no choice but to rush to Maicon for the first time.

If at this time, he did not guard Maicon for the first time, the Brazilian right back must have made a cross from the bottom. With a center like Charle Steas in the penalty area, who would dare him to make a cross?

Rizasa stepped forward to guard Maicon, and then a player behind him had to come to pick up his class and guard against Yang Yang.

There was a gap between the two defensive players.

After Yang Yang bypassed Rizasa, he quickly rushed to the bottom line.

Maicon also picked up the bottom line knowingly.

The ball arrives, the people arrive.

When Yang Yang stopped the ball, he rushed into the penalty area and blocked the central defender of The Hague with his body.

The improvement of physical fitness is manifested at this time.

The central defender of the Hague team wanted to squeeze him, but he was unmoved. Instead, he suddenly accelerated and threw him away and rushed into the penalty area.

At this time, another central defender of the Hague team quickly rushed over from the middle.

Yang Yang dribbled the ball all the way into the penalty area from the bottom line. He kept observing the situation around him, especially the opponent's every move through God's Vision.

The Hague goalkeeper Dorus de Vries is only 1.8 meters tall, which is relatively short among goalkeepers. At this time, he is almost all next to the right column, half-squatting and bending, his hands are almost drooping. When he got to the ground, he blocked every angle of Yang Yang's shot, and could make a flying save at any time.

In fact, when he dribbles the ball from the bottom line, the shooting angle is very small. Yang Yang's best choice is to pass the ball to his teammates.

Everyone on the field thought the same thing.

But Yang Yang noticed a very obvious gap at that moment, which was the top of goalkeeper De Vries' head.

In order to block all the shooting angles of his lower body, his hands were too low, and his waist was bent down, which exposed the gap on his head, after all, his height was there.

Yang Yang realized this, he hardly thought about it, and he didn't even plan to rush the ball into the small penalty area, and shot directly from the outside of the small penalty area.

Everyone at the scene has not yet reacted, and even the goalkeeper De Vries himself was taken aback.

The ball has already passed over his head at a very fast speed and hit the side net of the left column behind him!

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"In the eighth minute, Ajax scored the first goal!"

"A near-zero angle shot from Yang Yang!"

"God, this will definitely be the most exciting goal in the Eredivisie this round!"

"After Yang Yang cooperated with Maicon on the right, he forcibly broke into the penalty area, and without hesitation, he kicked his foot and shot furiously, making an astonishing zero-angle shot!"

After Yang Yang scored the goal, he rushed out of the stadium excitedly, jumped over the billboard on the side of the court, rushed directly to the opposite side of the fans' stand, spread his arms and sat in a gliding shape, and finally knelt down in front of the fans' stand.

More than 50,000 fans shouted Yang Yang's name hoarsely!

All of them have been waiting for his goal, waiting for him to find his form!

They were even mentally prepared that Yang Yang could not score in the first round of the new season.

Unexpectedly, Yang Yang brought them such a huge surprise at the very beginning.

"The Hague's defense has always been good, but this game Ajax played more aggressively."

"We can see that from the beginning of the game, the home team pressed heavily and suppressed the Hague team in the half, which made the Hague team very unaccustomed to playing and made frequent mistakes in the backcourt."

"Yang Yang's attack this time is indeed very eye-catching. It fully reflects his personal game strength. In an instant, he seized the loopholes in the opponent's defense and scored goals with his personal ability."

"We can also see that Yang Yang's condition is recovering rapidly. I believe we can see the invincible Yang Yang again soon!"

...

In the crowd of cheers, Ajax players rushed towards Yang Yang, all celebrating his goal.

This is Ajax's first goal of the new season, and it is still a bit of commemorative significance.

Sneijder put his whole body around Yang Yang's neck, sourly, and complained, "I already raised my hand, why didn't you pass it on to me?"

Yang Yang laughed.

Before the game, there was a bet in the Ajax locker room to see who could score the first goal, and Sneijder was also one of the favorites.

"I saw that you ran well. I originally wanted to pass it on, but I feel more confident." Yang Yang said confidently. Anyway, he has already entered. Who knows how confident he is?

Zero angle...more sure?

Sneijder couldn't take it anymore, he had the urge to go crazy.

His chances are clearly better.

Yang Yang laughed and hugged Sneijder's shoulders, turning his head to look at Heitinga, who had a sad face.

"Thanks, John, for remembering me to eat."

Haitinga bet that Yang Yang could not score the first goal, and Yang Yang thought that he could, and the two sides made a bet.

Ajax's on-field captain pinched his nose and cursed angrily. "What a bunch of rubbish. Four or five people couldn't stop him, and they didn't know what to eat."

But this guy got used to cheating, so he threw out a sentence, "I'm out of money, I owe it first, and then I'll talk about it when my salary is paid."

This time it became Yang Yang and Sneijder dumbfounded.

It's only the thirteenth, no money?

However, this is really in line with Heitinga's style. This guy is used to spending money lavishly, and has the same virtue as Ibrahimovic. At the beginning of the month, he is an uncle, and at the end of the month, he has to pretend to be a grandson.

I guess I don't know what to do with the money this month?

Taking the lead to score, Ajax is full of morale.

After Yang Yang gave his teammates a high five to celebrate one by one, he then greeted his teammates to return to the arena.

In this game, Ajax not only has to win, but also to win beautifully and win the house.

Only in this way can Ronald Koeman stick to his current style of play.
