After the afternoon training session, Yang Yang immediately returned to Odekerk's home to pack his things.

The journey from Amsterdam in the Netherlands to Brugge in Belgium is actually only 200 kilometres, but Ajax still decided to travel a day earlier to concentrate on tomorrow's big game.

Since it was the first time for Yang Yang to follow the team to the away stadium, he also needed to prepare his documents and luggage.

In the evening, everyone gathers at Detokmost, has dinner, and then takes the bus to Bruges.

As for the school, the club will ask for leave on his behalf.

Yang Yang didn't need to bring too many things for only one night, but it was the first time to go out with the team, Yang Yang hesitated for a moment and decided to call his parents in China to tell them about it.

In the evening in the Netherlands, it was already the middle of the night in China.

After receiving Yang Yang's call, his parents were also very happy, his father Yang Yongqiang asked about the time of the game with concern, and heard that it was going to be midnight, he did not hesitate, and said that he would definitely watch the game in front of the TV at that time, hoping to see Yang Yang play, but at the same time, let his son not have pressure.

Mother Shen Lifang still cares more about Yang Yang's life in Amsterdam, let him train hard, but he also has to study hard, and she asks him when he can go home, she hasn't seen her for more than a year, she misses her son.

In the end, Yang Yang could hear his mother's sobbing sound on the phone.

"Mom, I've just come to the team now, and you know that my foundation is weaker than others, so I need to work harder than others, and I definitely can't go back in winter, so I'll try to go home after the season next year." Yang Yang comforted.

To be honest, he did get a little homesick.

As soon as she heard that it would take half a year to see her son, Shen Lifang was sad again, but she also knew her son's ambitions, so naturally she wouldn't say anything, just encouraged him to work hard, and went to her uncle for help if there was anything.

After making a transatlantic phone call for more than ten minutes, Yang Yang made a special call to his uncle to tell him the news.

Shen Ming couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard this, he didn't expect Yang Yang's progress to be so fast.

After finally making a phone call, Yang Yang picked up his luggage and walked downstairs.

Fermaren had already returned home, sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking at his roommate and best friend with a grim expression, but his eyes could not hide his envy.

"How unfair you say, I entered the first team before you, but the result is good, you are going to play in the Champions League, and I haven't even won the Eredivisie." The Belgian centre-back pouted and complained.

Yang Yang smiled, "Okay, I'm just included in the squad, I may not be able to play, besides, it's only a matter of time before you are selected, when you played in the Eredivisie before, I was not so envious to death?" ”

Both are young players and to be able to play for the first team is undoubtedly a leap forward for them, which means they are both first-team players.

"Not necessarily, if you can't win this one tonight......" Fermaelen didn't finish, shrugged his shoulders, a little helpless.

Everyone knows how important this game is for Ajax, and once a loss or a draw will leave no hope for this season's Champions League.

Of course, if Celta Vigo loses to AC Milan away, then there is still hope for Ajax, but this kind of thing that pins hopes on others is obviously unacceptable to any team and no one.

'Frankly, I don't understand why the manager would put me in the squad for such an important game. Yang Yang was a little puzzled, and he was also very puzzled.

It is not difficult to understand entering the first team, and even entering the Eredivisie squad, he is also looking forward to it, but playing in the Champions League, especially such an important Champions League game, Yang Yang is really incomprehensible.

The eighteen-man roster, eleven starters, and the remaining seven people are all carefully selected and carefully considered.

Before Koeman used Yakubu, a rookie, but Yakubu made serious mistakes in both group games, which brought an extremely painful blow to Ajax, and now, he actually put Yang Yang in the squad, how much risk does this take?

But what does Yang Yang know about the head coach's thoughts?

"Okay, I'm just kidding, you, if you play, don't be careless, Van der Heiden is a Belgian player, he is impeccable in terms of ability and experience, and he is the most powerful player in the Brugge team."

Peter van der Hayden, the main left wing-back of the Belgian national team and one of the most important attacking tools of Club Brugge, is 27 years old this year, which is the golden years of professional football.

If Yang Yang plays, he will definitely play as a right winger, opposite Van der Heiden's left wing-back.

Although Van der Heiden is not a European star, at least he is a powerful star who has played in the Bundesliga for many years, and his strength is definitely stronger than all the opponents Yang Yang has faced before.

As a Belgian, Vermaelen is certainly aware of this.

"I understand." Yang Yang nodded gratefully.

At this time, Ibrahimovic's urging and Porsche's horn were heard outside the door.

"Come on, I'll watch the live stream at home and cheer you on." Fermaelen walked over and hugged Yang Yang hard.

"Don't worry."

Yang Yang picked up his luggage and went out, and under the envious gaze of Vermaelen, he got into Ibrahimovic's Porsche and headed towards Detokmost.

…………

…………

Before departure, the first team gathered for dinner at Detokmost's players' restaurant.

Yang Yang brought the documents that the assistant coach had asked for earlier, and at the same time asked him for a video of Van der Hayden's game, for which he specially prepared a USB flash drive.

Luther Carroll had a good impression of Yang Yang, so he naturally agreed.

After dinner and a short rest, everyone got on the bus and headed to Bruges, Belgium.

Although it was only 200 kilometers and about two hours by car, sitting on the bus and feeling the pressure of tomorrow's race, everyone felt that the time was very difficult.

At first, Yang Yang chatted with Ibrahimovic and Maxwell with great interest, but soon found it boring, so he simply closed his eyes and entered the super training ground, seriously practicing some of the most basic movements, focusing on his left foot.

The other day, Van Gaal focused on reminding him of his left foot.

The other people on the bus are either listening to the headphones or silently looking at the scenery outside the window, even if some people are closing their eyes and recuperating, they are all moving around, after all, in a small space, it will always feel uncomfortable after a long time.

Only Yang Yang was the only one, with his eyes closed all the way.

At first, everyone thought that he was closing his eyes and recuperating, but seeing that he had not moved for a long time, they were very puzzled, and then they paid close attention, and everyone suddenly realized that this kid was actually asleep.

This sudden discovery immediately aroused the interest of everyone in the car.

"Oh my God, what time is it, and he can sleep?"

"Zlatan, don't you always say that your heart is big? How? Compare with him? ”

"There's no comparison, Zlatan will definitely lose."

"The big war is coming, and he can sleep so peacefully, this heart is indeed big enough."

"And this is the first time he's in the squad in the first team, the first time he's played away, it's the Champions League."

The words in uppercase letters appeared on the faces of their teammates, and everyone was ashamed of Yang Yang's move.

Even if some of them sleep well, at this point in time, they can't sleep on the bus to the away game anyway, let alone sleep so sweetly like Yang Yang.

Ronald Koeman, the head coach sitting in the front row, also noticed the movement behind him, and after understanding the situation, he couldn't help but wonder.

Big heart, good sleep, this is a rare good thing for professional players.

You must know that many professional players often rely on sleeping pills to fall asleep before some key competitions, and like Yang Yang, he himself occupies the advantage of recuperating and recuperating.

"This kid is always unexpected, and he still has this ability." Coman sat back in his seat and shook his head with a smile.

This is really a skill that many professional players can't ask for.

"I've heard of him before, I've heard that he can sleep anytime, anywhere, and now I've seen it with my own eyes."

The breathing is even and smooth, the whole person is very relaxed, this must be asleep, and the surrounding movement did not wake him up, it can be seen that he slept deeply, which is indeed a skill that countless professional players dream of.

Yang Yang is working his left foot in the super training ground, if anything happens outside, if necessary, Lao Bing will notify him as soon as possible, and he can wake up anytime and anywhere, but at the moment he doesn't know that he has become the focus of ridicule and envy of his teammates, and only when the bus stopped at the hotel and Ibrahimovic patted him lightly that he opened his eyes.

"Wow, it's in place so soon." Yang Yang sat in his position and stretched.

There was a burst of laughter inside the bus.

Is this still fast?

The whole bus is staring at you for two hours, you know how hard it is?

You're good, your heart is too big, you sleep like a dead pig, you haven't woken up at all, of course you feel fast.

"Yang." Ibrahimovic was a little vindictive, patted Yang Yang's shoulder lightly, and gave a thumbs up, this time he really didn't accept it.

Ajax booked a park hotel in the southern suburbs of Bruges, mainly because it was more private and not far from the home stadium of Bruges, so it was very easy to get in and out.

Because Sneijder's roommate Pinard was injured and failed to enter the squad for this game, Yang Yang replaced him and shared the same room as Sneijder, and the two had partnered at the Talent Day event before, so they were no strangers.

Everyone else is basically in the same room as usual, the two are in the same room, Ibrahimovic and Maxwell have always been partners, and the others are basically old partners, after all, they are familiar with each other.

After receiving the room number, they went back to their rooms.

After putting away his luggage, Yang Yang went to Ibrahimovic's room and asked the Swedish center to borrow his laptop, and took advantage of the time before going to bed tonight to study Van der Heiden's opponent.
