Chapter 43
Leng Fei also glanced at Gengtner disappointedly, this guy is too faceless, he is a "pure little virgin" who has played for the first time, and you are not too young, do you want your life if you break a place......
In any case, Ajax won the game at home, and although Twente also won the game, there is still a four-point gap between them, and Ajax has a clear goal difference, even if they lose a game, it doesn't matter.
On April 15, 2010, Ajax came to Tilburg to challenge Willem II, perhaps many people will say that there is no big suspense for Ajax to win this game, but don't forget that Willem II is still struggling in the relegation quagmire, they are still 4 points away from going ashore, in the case of the end of three rounds in the league, Willem II's relegation prospects are not optimistic, so this game, against Ajax, Willem II will definitely fight hard in the Eredivisie, Whether you are the league leader or a brother who is difficult to relegate, in a word, Lao Tzu will play in the Eredivisie next year, who will not let Lao Tzu play with him!
Willem II at their home stadium, for the relegation of their main force, and played very aggressively, Ajax this game reverted to 4-3-3, two central defenders Oleg and Vertonghen, Li Haojie is still sitting in the stands.
However, in the 60th minute of the game, Wiltonghen was knocked down by the opposing defender Swinkels when he was fighting with the opponent, and after a preliminary examination, he caused a slight concussion, Ajax had to make substitution adjustments, and Joel considered between Boylessen and Li Haojie, and finally decided to let Li Haojie step on the lawn of the official game for the second time.
Under the opponent's aggressive style of play, it was difficult for Ajax to play their normal strength, and finally ended 0-0 in the relegation + championship competition, while Twente, who started a day earlier, beat Heerenveen at home, and in the final stage, the difference between Ajax and Twente was gradually narrowed to two points.
This game,In addition to Willem II's aggressive style of play,Another noteworthy is Li Haojie,The Chinese defender seems to be like Leng Fei,Brought a big surprise to Ajax fans,He performed very well defensively,Extinguished a sharp counterattack by Willem II,On the offensive end,He also had a long shot,Although it was out of the goal,But people have every reason to expect,The birth of the second Vertonghen。
In this offensive and defensive drill-like game, the referee only gave one minute of injury time, and when the time came, he blew the whistle at the end of the game, although Ajax has been pressing Willem II to beat violently, but it is surprising that Ajax has 38 shots on goal 22 times in the whole game.
For the first time since the 16th round of the league away to Utrecht, Ajax failed to score a goal in a game, with Willem II successfully holding back Ajax's firepower.
After the Ajax game, the league's other main rivals Twente are halfway through the game, AZ Alkmaar host FC Twente, AZ Alkmaar are not a good bone, they are currently fifth in the league, just one point less than Feyenoord in fourth, and there is still a lot of hope for fourth.
Joel was not in a hurry to return to Amsterdam and watched the second half of the match between AZ Alkmaar and FC Twente with the team in a hotel in Tilburg, which ended in a 0-0 draw and is currently underway.
In the 70th minute, the commentator in front of the TV raised his voice: "Bramma took the ball forward and shot...... It's out! It's Nkufo!! GOOOOAL!!! ”
In front of the TV, the Ajax players let out a sigh, why is AZ Alkmaar so weak! In particular, Mexican defender Moreno's fatal mistake did not target the opponent's top scorer Nkufo and conceded the goal, and was unceremoniously scolded by the Ajax players.
"Be quiet! Did you do better than them today? Joel's voice came from the front, and the players lowered their voices, in today's game, although Ajax pressed the opponent to play north, but never exceeded the last line of defense, in the face of such a fish belly team, Ajax's performance without scoring is not bad.
In the end, the score between FC Twente and AZ Alkmaar was 2-1, with Luuk de Jong, the senior brother of Ajax's midfield, who came on as a substitute for Lanzate in a game to seal the win, while AZ Alkmaar scored a brilliant strike from their star of the house, Morocco international Hamdawi, who had beaten three in a row, and of course, it came in the 89th minute and was just a consolation goal from AZ Alkmaar.
After Bergkamp finished watching the game, he turned his head to look at Yol's face, and was surprised to find that the unhappy look on Yol's face was not very obvious, and he seemed to be happy about something.
"Dennis, if you have time, help me put together a profile about Hamdawi, including his current value, match statistics, etc., I need a detailed report." Joel patted Bergkamp on the shoulder and said.
"I know, I'll go back and prepare, and I'll send someone to investigate him tomorrow." Bergkamp understands that Joel seems to have taken a fancy to the Alkmaar striker who just scored in the game, and now Ajax has Suarez, Suleimani and Zvetanić in the front, but Zvetanić is likely to leave the team soon, Suleimani's performance has been relatively poor recently, and it is imperative to bring in a striker, and a player like Hamdawi who has strength and is not worth much, Joel is first interested.
After this round of games, Ajax's four-point advantage in the standings has been reduced to two points, and with two games remaining, Ajax's mistakes are likely to ruin the league title this season, but Ajax's joy is that Twente's next opponent is Feyenoord, who are trying to maintain the top four in the league, while Ajax's opponents are the desperate Heracles and Nijmegen.
…………
The final of the Dutch Cup will be divided into two home and away matches on April 25 and May 7, which undoubtedly puts some pressure on the Ajax league, it can be said that Ajax ushered in the most important period of the season, although the daily training in the team is still talking and laughing, but everyone can feel the increasingly tense atmosphere of the championship, the next game, Ajax can only win, can not lose!
These days, the Ajax players are busy, everyone is fighting for the team's first major trophy in six years, not to mention that Ajax are now close to both titles.
It's also an anxious wait for the fans, who can't do anything but watch the team train and cheer them on when they're not playing.
On the afternoon of April 18, 2010, the penultimate round of the Dutch Football League began, at 4:30, all the games kicked off at the same time, and the 18 participating teams of the entire league, 9 stadiums sounded the whistle at the same time.
The Amsterdam Stadium is overcrowded, with more than 50,000 seats almost full, and this game and the next game will determine the league championship, but many Ajax fans hope that their arch-rival Feyenoord can successfully stop Twente, even if it is a draw, Ajax can win the championship in advance in their own appearance, considering that the result of the match between Feyenoord and Twente may be beneficial to Ajax, The Dutch Football Federation has brought the league trophy to the Amsterdam Stadium.
When the players of the two teams walked out, they saw the golden trophy, showing completely different expressions, Heracles' players showed envy, jealousy and hatred, because they had never won any other championships except for a gold cup in the Eredivisie, while the players of Ajax showed a look of relief, yes, Ajax has not won any championship since 2004, except for the Super Cup, which is not a chicken rib, This is a shameful record for a team that can only "nest in the nest" in European football, and today, it seems that the hope of finally seeing the title is finally seen, and Ajax fans and players can't help but feel a sense of relief.
"For the team, for yourselves, and for the fans! Ignore the game between FC Twente and Feyenoord, we have to win this game! Do you understand? So, let's go! That's what Joel said in the dressing room before the game, and he didn't even say a word of tactical set-up or other nonsense, and with Ajax's desire for the title, there is no need to repeat it.
As soon as the game began, Ajax's offensive was very turbulent, Suarez, Aisati and Leng Fei cooperated very smoothly in the frontcourt, this game Joel put Suleimani on the bench, Aisati played the main force, Aisati's strength is still very good, compared with Suleimani, in addition to Suleimani's relatively high value, Aisati has no place that is not comparable to him.
Leng Fei controlled the ball on the right side, made a light pass, and gave it to Suarez, who came to the side to answer, and then passed to Silva after receiving the ball, Silva continued to break through with the ball to the side, Aisati and Leng Fei gradually swam to the middle to respond, Silva ran to the bottom line and did not rush to cross, but passed back to Suarez, bucktooth cut into the penalty area with his magical legs as if no one, and made a false shot, but a delicate pass was passed by a fake shot, and the ball passed through the crotch of Heracles defender Rumus, The latter subconsciously clamped his legs, although he felt that he had touched the ball, but the ball did not stop, continued to pass to the back, Leng Fei in the middle has been interspersed in place, and came to the ball with a strong shot, the ball flew from the right hand side of the old German goalkeeper Pickenhagen, Pickenhagen tried his best to save, failed to stop the ball flight path, the ball jumped in the net for a while, stopped, the ball went in, the referee's finger pointed to the middle circle, Ajax 1:0 Heracles!
