40 You have me off
Yang Yang looked at the handsome man with long hair and fluttering braids in front of him with interest.
In his memory, the first player to wear this hairstyle should be Luther Gullitt of the Dutch Three Musketeers, and later Ajax's midfield star Edgar Davies also wore this hairstyle, causing a trend.
The dark-skinned African-American player in front of him looked about the same age as himself, but he had a long braid that hung down to his back, which made Yang Yang very curious and amused.
"What are you laughing at?" The pigtailed player asked, a little unpleasantly.
The guy in front of him stared at himself and giggled for no reason, which made him not only a little creepy.
"Nothing, it's just...... It's weird. Yang Yang hurriedly explained.
"What's so strange?" The pigtailed player asked, his tone becoming unfriendly.
He wondered if this guy was discriminating against his African ancestry.
If so, it's not over!
Yang Yang really didn't discriminate at all, and replied with a smile: "Don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else, I just want to ask you a question?" ”
"What's the problem?"
"Can you really ask?"
"Nonsense, hurry."
Yang Yang looked at the long braids on the back of his head with a smile, "Is it convenient for you to wash your hair like this?" ”
When washing your hair...... Is it convenient?
After hearing this, Ajax's left wing-back stared at Yang Yang with his eyes and couldn't speak, and then burst into laughter.
This kid is really interesting, let's play a football game, okay? What do you care about me washing my hair for?
What does it matter to you that we are inconvenient?
But I think it's funny that this kid asks such a question.
The centre-back named Thomas behind him heard the conversation between the two on the wing, and when he saw his teammates smiling like that, he couldn't help coughing heavily twice, reminding: "Urby, let's play." ”
Urbi hurriedly turned around, raised his hand towards Thomas, signaled that he knew, then looked back at Yang Yang with a smile, and asked tentatively, "You really want to know?" ”
"Of course, if you don't mind." Yang Yang said humbly.
Urby's eyes rolled and he said with a hippie smile, "Then I won't tell you." ”
Yang Yang didn't care, he shrugged his shoulders, and looked indifferent, anyway, he didn't plan to ask.
But in Urby's opinion, this Chinese kid must be full of doubts, but he just didn't say it, depressed to death, it was best to let him be entangled and unable to focus on the game.
At this moment, Thomas behind him suddenly reminded him: "Urby, the ball is coming." ”
Sure enough, Almere's midfielder quickly sent a diagonal high ball to the right flank.
Since the opening, Almere's situation has been very passive, Ajax relied on the overall strength advantage to firmly suppress Almere, especially the attacking lineup led by Babel and Amrabat in the front field has created huge problems for Almere's defense.
Babbel played as a central striker and Amrabat played as a right winger, and both were very active.
Clearly, he's all about wanting to put on a good show against Luther Carroll and earn a ticket to the first team for the new season.
Finally seizing a chance to counter-attack, Almere quickly moved the ball to the right.
The game has just begun, Yang Yang does not need to return to the defense of the midfield, but on the right side of the front, after seeing the midfield teammates take the ball, he quickly rushed to the right sideline of the front, judged the landing point, and stopped the ball in front of him with his chest up.
After catching up with the ball, Ajax's left wing-back, Urbi, was already following up.
The two quickly formed a one-on-one situation on the wing.
Yang Yang caught up with the ball, accelerated to the bottom line, and Urbi also followed for the first time, the speed was not slow at all, and it was always attached to Yang Yang's inside.
Suddenly, with an emergency stop to smash the ball, Yang Yang was about to cut inside, but he didn't expect the other party to turn around very quickly, facing Yang Yang sideways, and the whole person kept retreating, interfering from time to time.
It's fast, it's very flexible, and it's a strong sense of defense.
Yang Yang immediately judged the strength of the Ajax left full-back, where did he dare to be careless.
The two advanced and retreated, and soon approached the periphery of the right corner of the penalty area.
Yang Yang also noticed from the corner of his eye that his team's forwards and midfielders were also quickly catching up, and at the moment he was sure in his heart, he suddenly accelerated to start, and used gestures and head turning to cooperate, which was directly a fake action to cut in from the inside.
Urbi was also mentally prepared for his pendulum pass, but in the face of the sudden change, he was still startled, and instinctively made a defensive move to block the inner cut, but he didn't expect that the figure in front of him flickered, Yang Yang suddenly smashed the ball, but instead buckled the ball to the outside bottom line, and the whole person quickly rushed from the left outside line of Urbi to the bottom line.
In the blink of an eye, Yang Yang had already forcibly broken through Urbi's defense and rushed to the bottom line.
Urby's reaction was not unfast, his body was not inflexible, and he realized that he had been fooled at the first time, and immediately turned around to catch up.
But after all, it was a little slower, and after Yang Yang caught up with the ball on the right side of the penalty area, he directly crossed the ball.
Two Almere players were quick to follow up in the middle, one in front and one in the middle, but the quality of the cross was not high, and the header of the centre-back named Thomas in front of him was cleared out of the box.
But this was the first time since the opening that the two teams had entered the opponent's penalty area.
There was also a round of applause from the fans around the stadium.

"I have the idea of passing the ball with this foot, and the idea is very good, but the strength is weak, and the footwork is also poor."
Sitting in the chairman's stand are Ajax academy experts, each with many years of football experience, and you can see the clue at a glance from the cross just now.
"The fundamentals are so poor, it's a good old problem, but it's good that he can notice the two teammates in the middle." Fred Arroyo said.
Strength and footwork can be practiced, and Yang Yang is only sixteen years old, but it is difficult to practice passing ideas and ideas.
Van Basten also couldn't help nodding, obviously agreeing with his colleague's judgment, "It was very interesting to pass just now, it looks like Ronaldo's pendulum pass, but in fact it is not like it, Urby is still a little frizzy, which is also an old problem." ”
Patrick Radrew, who was on the side, laughed and said: "Let him play left wing-back, he is not happy in his heart, don't you see his long braids?" He felt he could take Davis's class. ”
Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.
Edgar Davies is now one of Europe's top defensive midfielders, but in reality, he has made a name for himself on the left wing, a true wing killer with African roots, and Urbi Emmanuelsen has never hidden his admiration for his predecessor Davies.
"What's the name of that central defender?" Van Basten asked, pointing to the centre-back, who had just cleared the ball with a header on the pitch.
"Thomas Fairmaren." Tony Browns Slotz replied, "We signed him back in 2001 but he hasn't made a senior appearance yet. ”
Van Basten nodded at Slotz.
Although he is a step worse than Slotz in terms of his current position in the team, in fact, Slotz does not dare to hold up in front of him at all, and even often listens to Van Basten's opinion.
As the crowd talked, Almere on the pitch hit the back again.
…………

After the ball was broken in the middle of the midfield, the ball was quickly transferred to the right.
This time, Yang Yang returned to the midfield, faced the incoming ball, headed the ball, pushed the ball in front of him, and quickly started to catch up.
Ajax's lagging midfielder Maduro quickly returned to defense, but Yang Yang left Maduro behind with an acceleration along the right touchline, dribbling into the 30-meter area and approaching Ajax's penalty area.
Urbi Emmanulsson faced Yang Yang, who was approaching, hesitated for a moment, and then decisively chose to grab.
As soon as he grabbed it, Yang Yang suddenly accelerated, and it was another pendulum pass, making a gesture to break through from the outside again, but in fact, his body suddenly shook, and he smashed the ball and cut into the inside line.
He's going to cut inside with the ball and go to the penalty area.
Emmanuelsen was deceived by Yang Yang, and as soon as the two came into contact, Yang Yang formed a breakthrough.
But just when there was an exclamation in the stadium, Yang Yang was just about to catch up with the ball again, when a figure suddenly flashed in front of him, and a vigorous figure rushed from the direction of Ajax's penalty area, directly with a sliding tackle.
Yang Yang's whole person was shoveled to the ground, the person fell, and the ball was lost.
There was an exclamation at the scene, and everyone was worried about Yang Yang, who had rolled twice on the grass, and didn't know if he was injured.
Yang Yang was lying on the grass in a large shape, panting heavily.
The continuous acceleration and change of direction just now made him gasp a little, and he needed to rest.
After the successful tackle of the Ajax central defender cleared the siege with a big foot, he quickly returned to Yang Yang's side and stretched out his left hand to Yang Yang who was lying on the ground.
A sliding shovel like the one just now would definitely not be possible with the right foot.
Grabbing the other party's hand, as soon as he borrowed his strength, Yang Yang stood up from the ground, grinned at the other party, and smiled.
"Your sliding shovel scared me."
"So are you." The other party replied lightly.
What he meant was that Yang Yang had passed the left wing-back all at once, which was unexpected.
In his opinion, at least he should be able to delay his opponent appropriately, but he didn't expect to be cleanly lived, which forced him to take the risk of shoveling to stop it.
"My name is Yang Yang."
"Thomas Fairmaren." The Ajax centre-back replied.
Next to him, a voice suddenly interjected, "My name is Urbi Emmanuelsen, and you've pissed me off." ”
Yang Yang turned his head and saw that the left fullback was glaring at him, and raised his right hand apologetically, but the corners of his mouth were smiling.
It is undoubtedly an honour for all attacking players to be hated by the opposing defenders, and he doesn't mind it at all.
The ball had returned to his own half, Ajax was attacking, Yang Yang did not dare to linger in the slightest, and quickly returned to the defense to help, but when he looked at Thomas Vermaelen again, his eyes flashed with excitement.
It can be seen that Vermaelen is more difficult than Emmanuelsen.
But the more difficult the opponent is, the more exciting he gets, the more excited he gets.
The Ajax Academy is really full of strong players.
