Almost as soon as the whistle blew, the entire Phillip Stadium was completely boiling.

35,000 PSV Eindhoven fans raised their voices in unison.

Referee Dirk van Egmund blew the whistle and quickly ran into PSV Eindhoven's penalty area, ran in front of Brazilian centre-back Alex, reached into his chest pocket, and held up a scarlet card.

In an instant, PSV Eindhoven fans were fried.

"Referee Van Egmund showed Alex a red card!"

'It was a foul on the PSV Eindhoven centre-back and he pointed to a penalty.

"When Yang Yang took the ball on the last step, the whole person had already rushed into the penalty area, and it was an indisputable penalty."

"Judging from the slow-motion replay, Alex's movements are very obvious, and from the replays from different angles, Yang Yang has indeed rushed into the penalty area, and Alex, as the last defender, must pay for his foul."

'That is, PSV Eindhoven will have to accept a second half in which they have one less man than their opponents while also conceding a goal.'

PSV Eindhoven's players looked furious, with Cocu and Van Bommel rushing to the referee, apparently signaling that the penalty for a red card and a penalty was too harsh, but the referee kept pointing to his eyes to show that he saw very clearly.

Cocu and Van Bommel are still relentless, but the referee is very determined.

'There was no doubt that it was a very clear foul and the referee's decision was indisputable.

'PSV Eindhoven's players should be calm now, they should try to control their emotions or they will have to get another card.'

Charlie Steias walked over, stretched out his right hand, and forcefully pulled up Yang Yang, who was still lying on the ground.

"Well done."

"Well done." Sneijder also rushed over and laughed.

Sending off a player and picking up a penalty was definitely a game-changer in the second half.

Yang Yang's performance in the first half was not as eye-catching as the previous two games, but at the critical moment, when he got the opportunity, he also unceremoniously gave the opponent a fatal blow.

It can be said that the counterattack just now was very crucial, reflecting Yang Yang's calmness at the critical moment.

After Yang Yang got up from the ground, he sorted out the jersey on his body, and was pulled off the line a little, which shows that Alex was indeed intent on fouling just now, but he shouldn't have thought that Yang Yang had rushed into the penalty area.

It all happened in the blink of an eye, and Alex didn't have time to react.

In front of the home and away coaches on the sidelines, Hiddink and Ronald Koeman reacted in the exact opposite direction, with Hius roaring angrily, apparently believing that the referee was deliberately biased in favour of Ajax and that PSV Eindhoven should not be given such a harsh capital sentence.

"You're literally killing the game, you know?" The PSV Eindhoven boss roared.

Ronald Koeman was cheering and celebrating, the red card, the penalty, it was too crucial for Ajax.

But the question then becomes, who will take the penalty?

'The referee calmed the mood of the PSV Eindhoven players and he was not influenced by the home players and fans.

'He's obviously pretty sure it's a foul and it should be a penalty at the same time.'

'Alex walked out of the pitch with his head down, and the Brazilian centre-back should be held accountable for his foul.

'With a little bit of time to go until the end of the first half, who will Ajax take the penalty?'

……

"It's better for you to come!" Sneijder looked at Yang Yang deeply.

Yang Yang shook his head, "No, let's go, you are the team's number one penalty taker." ”

"I've missed a penalty once before, so I'm not sure." Sneijder said with some embarrassment.

Yang Yang looked at Charlie Steas and Wesley Sonck, as well as Pinar and other teammates, and these people also looked at Yang Yang, and Pinar nodded to Yang Yang in encouragement.

"You've had a high percentage of penalties and it's best for you to take the penalty."

Yang Yang has only taken two penalties so far, and both times he hit directly.

What's more, Yang Yang pushed directly into the middle when he took two penalties, showing his strong psychological quality.

Therefore, both Sneijder and Pienaar believe that it is most appropriate for Yang Yang to take the penalty.

Needless to say, Charlie Steas is not strong, Wesley Sonke's psychological quality is indeed not strong, Sneijder has missed a penalty before, and there is a psychological shadow, plus Yang Yang earned this penalty, so he is naturally the penalty.

'Don't be pressured, we have a red card advantage, it's fine.' Sneijder reassured.

Yang Yang smiled bitterly, saying so, maybe there is no pressure?

…………

…………

"It seems that they are going to nominate Yang Yang to come out and take the punishment." Ronald Koeman was a bit of a surprise.

Luther Carroll's eyes flashed with a hint of joy, which represented the recognition of Yang Yang by a group of players led by Sneijder.

'Sneijder has missed a penalty once before, so it's probably a shadow.'

"yes." Ronald Koeman nodded, "After Van der Vaart and Ibrahimovic left, Galasek did not play in this game, except for Sneijder, the most suitable penalty is Yang Yang." ”

"The focus of attention in the whole Netherlands is at the Phillip Stadium, under the watchful eyes of 35,000 fans, the pressure of such a penalty is greater than the mountain, I don't know if he can withstand it." Luther Carroll was also a little worried.

Ronald Koeman nodded, it is true, but this is also a challenge that Yang Yang must face.

"PSV Eindhoven's Brazilian goalkeeper Gomez has been on the rise this season, and he has grabbed the main position when he first arrived, and he is in excellent form, such a player is dangerous, and Yang Yang may not be able to take advantage."

Luther Carroll agreed with Ronald Coman's judgment very much, and there was a trace of worry on his face.

But this is also a hurdle that a new flag bearer of the team must overcome.

If you can't be calm and stable at this time, how can you be convincing?

And how can he convince everyone that he can lead Ajax to success?

…………

…………

Xiurelio Gomez, 23 years old, is 1.91 meters tall and weighs 82 kilograms.

After moving to PSV Eindhoven from Brazil for a million euros in the summer, he made a mistake against Roosendaal in the opening game of the new season and was then refrigerated by Hiddink for three rounds.

He regained his footing from the game away to Nijmegen on 18 September, helping his side to a 3-0 win away and starting all five games that followed, playing the full game and conceding just one goal.

That's right, it's the goal he conceded away to Rosenborg on Wednesday, and he doesn't have much to blame.

As of tonight, he has kept four consecutive clean sheets in the Eredivisie, keeping 360 clean sheets.

Arguably, he has been one of the key contributors to PSV Eindhoven's winning streak in the last four rounds.

Yang Yang looked deeply at the tall and burly Brazilian goalkeeper, who was also watching him.

Suddenly, Yang Yang thought that before Gomez came to Eindhoven, the team he played for was Cruzeiro.

Thinking of this, Yang Yang immediately looked at Mai Kong not far behind him and beckoned to him.

McCone quickly ran over, "Something?" ”

"Does Gomez have a habit of saving penalties?" Yang Yang asked with concern, but his eyes were fixed on Gomez in the distance.

The Brazilian goalkeeper took notice of McConn, knowing that he had been his team-mate for many years at Cruzeiro.

McCone also looked at Gomez, "Nothing special, but he's a right-footed player and seems to prefer to pounce on the left." ”

Yang Yang nodded deliberately vigorously, patted Mai Kong's shoulder, and signaled that it was okay, "Thank you." ”

"You're welcome." McCone quickly returned to his position.

Yang Yang took a deep breath, looked directly at Gomez, calmly walked into the penalty area, put the football at the penalty spot, stepped on the turf behind the football, and slowly retreated away.

He kept an eye on Gomez's actions the whole time, with a chuckle on his face.

Did former teammate McConn reveal any secrets to Yang Yang?

Gomez was skeptical.

For this kind of thing, he can't blame McConn, after all, it is each his own master, but he didn't figure out what McConn could tell Yang Yang after scraping his brains?

But the referee didn't give him time to think, and soon blew the whistle for the penalty after Yang Yang set the ball and retreated to his position.

For a moment, the 35,000 fans almost held their breath.

Even at this moment, countless Dutch fans squatting in front of the TV to watch the live broadcast of the game also held their breath, and their eyes all fell on Yang Yang, who was wearing the No. 11 jersey.

After taking a few quick breaths, Yang Yang took a deep breath and rushed forward quickly.

Gomez was also quickly predicting his free throw lane based on Yang Yang's movements, but he could be said to be ignorant of Yang Yang's habits, and when he saw Yang Yang making a gesture to kick to the right side of the goal, he immediately realized that as a right-footed player, the left side of his body was indeed weak.

Almost instantly, Gomez flew to make a save.

He knew very well that it would be too late to react when Yang Yang took the ball.

But Yang Yang paused abruptly and quickly launched a penalty.

"Oh my God, it's straight to the middle again!"

"God, Yang Yang easily sent the ball to the middle!"

"It was his third penalty in a row and it went straight down the middle."

"We even have to wonder if it's his free throw habit."

"But there's no denying that he calmly converted the penalty on all three occasions!"

"One to zero!"

'The situation is quite favorable for Ajax, Yang Yang made a personal performance near the end of the first half, after beating two defenders in a row, creating a red card for Alex and calmly converting a penalty.

"After holding the record for 400 minutes without conceding a goal, Gomez was finally breached!"

The moment Yang Yang scored the penalty, he rushed out of the court quickly and excitedly.

It's so exciting!

He's also a gamble!

Of course, he paused deliberately because he clearly saw Gomez's reaction.

The Brazilian goalkeeper must have been speculating that Yang Yang must have gotten some secret from McConn's mouth, but in fact, the Brazilian right wing-back did not give any useful information at all.

But the move before the penalty left Gomez with the seeds of doubt and made him make a judgment in advance.

It's a great feeling!
