286 Twenty-sixth ball! [The third update of the liver, begging for a monthly pass]

On the evening of May 4, the Amsterdam Arena.

In the sixth minute of the game, Yang Yang's breakthrough assist on the right side allowed Charlie Steas to grab a point in the front of the small penalty area, scoring for Ajax to lead Sporting Lisbon 1-0.

But just before the end of the first half, Lilderson pulled one back for Sporting Lisbon.

The two sides went into the break with a score of 1-1, and the aggregate score also reached 4-2.

That said, Sporting Lisbon will have to score two more goals to equalise.

This is not a small difficulty for the Portuguese Super League team.

Yang Yang played quite relaxed in this game, and did not deliberately pursue goals or anything.

Ronald Koeman replaced him with De Moore in the 64th minute, hoping that he could concentrate on playing the weekend's league game.

Also substituted was Charlie Steias, with Ronald Coman replacing him with Niklas Bendtner.

Sporting Lisbon, on the other hand, are also making substitutions to strengthen their attack.

However, just three minutes after the substitution, Niklas Bendtner had a shot on goal to break past Sporting Lisbon and extend the lead for Ajax.

This goal completely defeated Sporting Lisbon.

In the end, the score remained 2-1 at halftime, and Ajax eliminated Sporting Lisbon 5-2 on aggregate.

This is also the second time in Ajax's 100-year history that Ajax has reached the final of the UEFA Cup after 92.

On that occasion, Louis van Gaal led the team to defeat Torino in Italy to win the first UEFA Cup in the club's history.

After a 13-year absence, Ajax reached the final of the UEFA Cup again.

The other team to reach the final of the UEFA Cup is CSKA Moscow in the Russian Premier League.

It is rumored that this is the team of Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich in the Russian Premier League, and it has also performed well this season.

The final is scheduled for May 18 at the Estadio Alvalad in Lisbon, Portugal.

It is conceivable that Ajax, who knocked Sporting Lisbon out of the UEFA Cup, will become the least popular team at the Alvalad.

…………

…………

On the evening of May 7, the Amsterdam Arena.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, the red scoreboard showed a score of 2-0.

Ajax took the lead.

But the scorer was not Yang Yang.

In the 34th minute of the first half, De Jong assisted McCone to score a goal.

Three minutes later, Yang Yang's big foot shifted, Pienaar crossed diagonally to the penalty area on the left side, and De Jong inserted a sudden cold arrow to score again, rewriting the score to 2-0.

Yang Yang struggled in the first half to find a fighter, getting five shots on goal, two on target, but neither could find the back of the net.

This made Yang Yang feel a little lost when he walked off the court.

Waalwijk, like Vitesse, was desperate to stop him.

Whether it is against Yang Yang or Kuyt, the top scorer between the two sides is on this, and every Eredivisie team will try to stop them, which is why Kuyt has not scored in five rounds before.

In the last round, Vitesse focused on Yang Yang, and the same was true of Valwijk this time.

Adult beauty?

It doesn't work at all on the football field.

Waalwijk manager Erwin Koeman, the younger brother of Ajax boss Ronald Koeman, had already made his message very clear before the game that they would give it their all.

It's not about anything else, it's an honor for them as a professional manager and a professional player.

Want to score goals?

Yes, Yang Yang has to show real skills.

The Ajax fans in the stands shouted his name and cheered for him when they saw Yang Yang walking off the pitch with his head down, and many fans waved banners and slogans, signaling Yang Yang not to worry, the goal will definitely come.

For this love for the fans, Yang Yang stood at the entrance of the players' tunnel, raised his arms high above his head, and applauded them vigorously.

The move immediately earned him even more enthusiastic support from the fans.

After playing in the league to this point, no one will question Yang Yang's strength and performance anymore, he no longer needs to prove himself to anyone, what he really needs is to challenge his limits.

In fact, as the league gradually ended, more and more people have lost confidence in Yang Yang, and everyone believes that it is difficult for him to catch up with Kuyt.

He's scoring goals, but so is Kuyt, Feyenoord have been known for their attacking football this season, and their attacking firepower is even stronger than PSV Eindhoven's, and Kuyt has a very obvious bonus in this regard.

On the other hand, Ajax, except for Yang Yang, the offensive firepower point is not obvious enough.

Ronald Koeman has never been a manager who is good at adjusting the attack, and after the departure of Ibrahimovic and Van der Vaart, he did not bring in reinforcements in time to fill the void in the team, which greatly affected Ajax's attack.

…………

…………

"The second half restarts."

'There were no substitutions on either side and Ajax were still in control of the situation.

"We can see that Yang Yang is still working very hard to find opportunities."

"But Waalwijk has specially arranged for someone to mark Yang Yang, which makes it look difficult for him to get the ball."

"It's true that there is no way to get the ball, and there is no space to play speed, and Yang Yang's advantage is difficult to threaten."

"But he shouldn't be in a hurry at this time, and the more this time, the more he should be calm."

……

"More than ten minutes have passed in the second half, and the two sides still maintain the score of 2-0 in the first half."

"In previous games, Ronald Koeman often chose to replace Yang Yang at this time, because he was only 18 years old, and the coaching staff was worried that he would play on multiple fronts in a row to avoid putting too much pressure on him."

"But ahead of tonight's game, Ronald Koeman said that Yang Yang will be allowed to play the whole game, and Ajax will do everything in their power to support Yang Yang to score."

"Now the situation is not only a battle between Yang Yang and Kuyt, but also a battle between the two giants of Ajax and Feyenoord."

……

Ajax launched another attack on the left.

Maxwell picked up the ball on the left and raced to the left of the 30-metre zone for Waalwijk.

Pinar cut in to the middle and raised his hand for the ball.

The Brazilian left wing-back immediately crossed the ball diagonally to the left side of the edge of the box, allowing the South African international to run over to receive the ball while he quickly stepped in from the side.

At this time, Yang Yang ran sideways from the right side to the left side along the penalty line, which looked like he was going to pick up Pienal, which suddenly made the Waalwijk defenders nervous.

But just as Pinar received the ball, he suddenly made a sharp stop and turned and sent the ball back to the left.

Maxwell quickly dribbled the ball to the left of Waalwijk, and before he could reach the baseline, he suddenly sent a low ball over.

The ball crossed the middle at great speed and landed towards the back of goal.

The Brazilian left fullback believes that Yang Yang will definitely be able to understand this line, and at the same time, he will definitely be able to catch up.

Because, when they practice on weekdays, they have not trained such a coordination routine.

Yang Yang ran to the middle just now, and when he saw Pienal's sudden turn and pass back to Maxwell behind him, he immediately understood, and stopped on the right side of the arc area at the front of the penalty area, paralyzing Valwijk's defenders, but suddenly started quickly and rushed to the back point.

When Yang Yang rushed to the right corner of the small penalty area, Maxwell's pass happened to come to this place.

The goalkeeper is on the left, and the entire right half of the goal is empty.

At that moment, Yang Yang made a clear prediction, he knew that the goalkeeper would definitely fly to save.

This kick has to be held down.

After half a year of shooting training, he sketched the entire process of scoring goals in his mind almost instantly, from footwork to power to orientation, all of which clearly appeared in his mind.

……

"Bang!"

“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!”

"Yang Yang !!!"

"Yang Yang !!!"

"He's finally scored!!!!"

The entire Amsterdam Arena went crazy and all the fans rushed out of their seats.

After Yang Yang caught up with the ball, he directly sent the ball into the lower right corner of the goal, almost grazing the right post into the net, which made the opponent's goalkeeper powerless at all, and could only watch the ball break the goal.

But Yang Yang himself couldn't stop his body, and the whole person rushed out of the court and almost hit the post.

On the sidelines, Yang Yang leaned against the billboard, gasping for breath, but he had the urge to cry with excitement.

Twenty-sixth goal!

It was his twenty-sixth goal of the season!

At this moment, he really felt like he had pierced a layer of window paper!

He suddenly believed that no matter how much the opponent defended him, he could score!

He didn't know why he felt this way, but it was really, really strong, so strong that he felt like he could go in!

And, from the bottom of his heart, he wants to score again.

After this game, there are only two rounds left.

There is still a three-goal gap between him and Kuyt, and he scored one in this game, what about Kuyt?

With Feyenoord playing later than Ajax, no one knows if Kuyt will be able to score or how many he will score.

Therefore, Yang Yang felt that he had to fight.

…………

…………

Back on the court, Yang Yang high-fived his teammates and celebrated, and immediately ran back to the half of the game.

After the restart, Ajax continued to attack.

The midfield and backfield were attacking and creating chances to score, while Waalwijk was three goals behind but still held on to the team's defence.

Yang Yang finally got a good chance again in the 89th minute.

The Waalwijk defender was out of fitness and there was a leak, Sneijder went straight behind him, Yang Yang cut diagonally into the penalty area, and hit a far corner directly after winning the ball.

It was a shot that was meant to be a must-have, and he was even ready to celebrate.

Unexpectedly, Waalwijk's goalkeeper flew out like a god and directly blocked Yang Yang's shot.

Charlie Steas followed in the back row, and in the face of the flying ball, he nudged it almost reflexively.

The ball is in!
