The day after Ajax returned from Turin, Italy, the Netherlands saw its first snow of winter.

Many media and fans are worried that this will be a harbinger of a cold winter for Ajax.

On the third day after the snow, Ajax hosted their 14th round opponent, Roosendahal.

Roosendah's most important task this season is relegation, and manager Jan van Dijk was the main defender of Groningen in the eighties and nineties, playing for Groningen all his life, and was the core contributor to the most glorious period of Groningen's history.

A native of the Netherlands, Jan van Dijk also has a Dutch style of attacking football, and his Roosendaal managed to lose 5-2 at home to PSV Eindhoven and 4-0 to Feyenoord.

But at the same time, he can also thrash Vitesse 4-1 at home and beat Graafschap 3-0.

Of course, a 5-1 defeat away to Utrecht, a 3-0 defeat to Willem II and a 3-0 defeat to Nijmegen all have a very strong Roosendaal character.

In 13 games so far this season, Roosendaal have drawn just once, a 2-2 draw at home to Groningen.

Not only that, Roosendaal scored in each of the first 13 rounds, only one was a goal, a 0-1 defeat at home to FC Twente, and the rest of the games scored more than two goals, and the number of goals scored more than four reached seven.

This is a very unrestrained team with a distinctly Dutch character.

Ajax also took this game equally seriously, fielding the most attacking attacking line-up.

The goalkeeper is Stekelenberg, the backline is Maxwell, Vermaelen, Heitinga and McConn, the midfield is Frenkie de Jong behind, Pienaar and Sneijder are in the middle, and Wesley Sonk, Charlie Steias and Yang Yang form a trident.

I don't know if it was because the field was wet and slippery after the rain and snow, but the race entered the fast lane from the beginning.

…………

…………

Yang Yang behaved badly in Turin City.

Although the outside world still praised his efforts, especially for the pass to Wesley Sonk shortly after the opening, it was thought that if he had scored, the situation would have been completely different.

But he himself was still very uncomfortable, holding his stomach and wanting to find a place to vent.

At the beginning of the game against Roosendal, Yang Yang showed very hard work, running very fast and actively, constantly interspersed looking for opportunities, and even appeared frequently in the middle of the road.

Whether it is his teammates on the pitch, the manager on the sidelines, the fans in the stands, or even the audience in front of the TV, his determination can be clearly felt.

He needs a win to be ashamed!

Ten minutes into the game, Yang had already created two dangerous attacks, one for Wesley Sonk, but the Belgian didn't take his chances, and the other for Sneijder, whose long-range shot sent Rosendaal into a cold sweat.

In the thirteenth minute of the game, Yang Yang once again created a threat.

Yang Yang cut inside with the ball to the front of the penalty area, and gave the ball to McConn on the right side, who quickly went down, but had no chance to cross, and could only pass back to Yang Yang in an inverted triangle.

After receiving the ball, Yang Yang quickly followed the right sideline of the penalty area to the bottom line, using speed and slippery grass to break through the defense of the two Roosendal players, and sent a high parabolic cross in front of the bottom line.

Charlie Steas firmly dominated the box and headed home from close range.

1 to 0!

The Greek center was excited, and the Ajax fans at the scene also shouted wildly.

The goal in the thirteenth minute almost meant that it was likely to be another big win.

But just when everyone thought that Ajax would score one goal after another, Roosendaal suddenly launched a sharp counter-attack nine minutes later, and De Graaf from the right quickly cut behind the defence and scored a solo goal after winning the ball.

One-to-one!

Everyone at Ajax is a little confused!

Maxwell, who bore the brunt of the attack, covered his face even more ashamedly.

In the last game against Juventus, Camoranesi counter-attacked and scored through this line.

And this time, De Graaf went through the same line and drove straight into the goal.

In two games in a row, the left side he was stationed on turned into a channel for opponents to score goals one after another, can he not feel ashamed?

Yang Yang just switched to the left side, and just saw Maxwell like this, and walked over quickly.

"Don't do that, Maxwell, you have to have faith in yourself." Yang Yang comforted.

"No, I really think I've been terrible lately." Maxwell gripped his long hair hard with both hands, distressed.

Yang Yang's hands were placed on his shoulders and he looked directly at the Brazilian teammate, "Trust me, friend, you can, have confidence in yourself, have faith in me, you can!" ”

Pienaar and other teammates also ran over to comfort him.

Maxwell is a good person in the dressing room, he is the kind of person who is kind to everyone, no one hates such teammates, let alone mistakes on the football pitch and doubts about themselves, which is a common thing.

Just like Yang Yang, after losing to Juventus, he also once doubted himself.

But in the super training ground, after Lao Bing's explanation and persuasion, he also figured it out himself.

Instead of wasting time on self-doubt, it is better to take the time to train and work hard to improve yourself.

"Didn't he steal a ball? Then look for a chance and steal one yourself! Yang Yang encouraged fiercely.

Maxwell looked at Yang Yang deeply and nodded vigorously.

Make amends, this is the best way for him to redeem!

…………

…………

When the game reached the thirty-third minute, Yang Yang didn't get a chance on the right side, and the big foot moved to the left side.

Maxwell won the ball on the flank, shook off the defender and cut inside to pass the ball to Pinard.

The South Africa international was well versed in front of him, and the Brazilian left wing-back cut in quickly to catch up on the ball at the edge of the box and fired a left-footed shot straight past Rosendahl's goal to put the score ahead again.

Two to one!

Maxwell was so excited that he rushed out of the stadium after the goal, jumped over the billboards, and rushed directly to the fan stands, celebrating his goal a little frantically.

Many Ajax players, including Yang Yang, Sneijder, and Pinard, gathered around him to celebrate.

"Thank you!" Maxwell hugged Yang Yang's shoulders hard and said gratefully.

Yang Yang grinned, revealing the row of dazzling white teeth, and laughed: "Then give me an assist." ”

…………

…………

Heading into the break with a 2-1 lead, Ronald Koeman also raised a number of questions about his team's performance in the first half, especially in defence.

It can't be a fluke that the opponent has been counter-attacked from the left in two consecutive games and led straight to the goal.

Of course, it would be irresponsible to blame Maxwell for all the mistakes.

The Brazilian left-back has always been stronger in attack than in defense, and Ajax uses him because they like his attack, but this has to tolerate his hidden dangers in defence, which is an old problem of all attacking full-backs.

After the rematch in the second half, Yang Yang played a quick wave of attacks on the right side, and won a corner kick in the 51st minute, Sneijder took the corner, and Vermaelen scored with another header, 3-1.

The Belgian centre-back's header has become his trademark attacking tool, and has allowed him to establish himself at the back of Ajax.

After taking a two-goal lead, Ajax can basically be said to have the chance to win, but Yang Yang still has no intention of relaxing.

He's hungry for a goal!

When he played Juventus, he was imprisoned by the likes of Zambrotta, Tacinati and Nedved throughout the game, and it was a terrifying feeling that made him very resistant.

He knows that he doesn't have the strength to break through this confinement for the time being, but he needs to get out of that shadow as soon as possible, and the fastest and best way is to score.

It's like Maxwell.

A goal not only made up for his previous mistakes, but also allowed him to regain a little self-confidence.

Yang Yang also needs to do the same.

Ronald Koeman and Luther Carroll are both aware of Yang's problems, and since there is no Champions League this week and there will be a week's rest, they are not in a hurry to replace Yang.

In the 65th minute, Anastasia replaced Charlistias.

Seven minutes later, Mitya replaced Wesley Sonke.

Both substitutions were about adjusting the team's attack.

Whether it is Ronald Coman or Luther Carroll, they all hope that Yang Yang can score a goal.

And he himself is constantly working the pitch, constantly looking for opportunities.

Yang Yang is very different from Ibrahimovic and Van der Vaart.

Once the latter two players are in a hurry, their emotions will be a little out of control, as long as they are given the slightest chance, whether it is a good opportunity or not, whether they are sure or not, they will go straight to the ground.

Therefore, once they are in a hurry, the shooting percentage drops significantly, and even affects the team's offensive efficiency.

But Yang Yang is different, he is anxious, but he still remains calm and rational.

His creed is never to fight uncertain battles.

This makes him not be able to say that he has a hundred shots, but his shooting efficiency is still very high.

The game went on and Ajax still had one last substitution left.

There is no suspense about the outcome at this time, including Sneijder, Pienal, Maxwell and McConn, all of whom are trying to help Yang Yang create opportunities, but Roosendaal is also obviously guarding Yang Yang to the death.

It wasn't until the 83rd minute that Roosendah's defense showed a flaw.

Yang Yang suddenly switched to the left side again, pulled to the left sideline to receive Pinard's pass, and passed the ball back to Maxwell, who was in front, and quickly cut diagonally to the front of the penalty area.

Maxwell dribbled down the edge of the ball, drew the attention of the defence, and then passed back to the edge of the box.

When Yang Yang stopped the ball, he flicked it to the middle, and the whole person quickly cut inward, and directly pulled out his leg with his right foot and shot angrily.

The ball arced, almost against the right-hand post, and quickly drilled into Rosendaal's goal.

Four to one!

Yang Yang finally scored!
