"It's not a good game."

Standing in the crowd on the sidelines, John Rep said with a frown.

"With the likes of Wesley Snoyer, Kagri Asante and Marvin Dolin on the move, AS80 seems to be on the move this time around, looking to boost the team's morale with the summer amateur tournament." Dick Van Poel analyzed.

Since Almere was promoted to the third division, the first team has been firmly ahead of the AS80, but there is still a gap between them in terms of youth training, and many of the first team's results come from players who have come to work on loan from Ajax.

In the past season, Almere failed to reach the second division, but the whole season has been very impressive, only seven years after its establishment to achieve such results, Almere can be said to be famous in Dutch football, as the city rival AS80 is naturally under pressure.

Since they can't compete with Almere in terms of league results, then AS80 naturally wants to win back in other aspects, and the amateur competition has undoubtedly become the best platform.

The amateur tournament is a single-elimination format, and if Almere were eliminated in the first game, not only would the players lose valuable training opportunities, but also a big blow to the team's morale.

But John Repp and Dick Van Poel couldn't do anything about it.

After all, the game still depends on the players to fight on the field, and the manager can only give advice from the sidelines.

Seeing that Yang Yang was talking to his teammates in the sideline rest area, and it seemed that he was directing his teammates, John Repp and Dick Van Poel were surprised.

They could all sense the low morale of the team, even Henk Dimel had a bad face, but at this time, Yang Yang seemed to be very confident, and the command was determined, which surprised them a little.

"He doesn't seem to know what his opponent is capable of." Dick Van Poel smiled wryly.

"Maybe that's a good thing." That's what John Rip thinks.

The ignorant are fearless, Yang Yang does not understand the strength of the opponent's players, but has no psychological pressure and burden.

But what they don't know is that even if Yang Yang knows, he still has no psychological burden, and is more eager to try.

Although he has only played four games, the youth team has long been unable to satisfy him, and it is also a rare opportunity for him to meet the main defensive player of the fourth level.

…………

…………

As the referee's whistle blew, Almere, who was the first to kick off, immediately passed the ball back to the backline.

Yang Yang rushed forward from the right side for the first time, directly facing the opponent's No. 2 left full-back Marvin Dolin.

The opponent obviously didn't take Yang Yang too seriously, he faced fourth-tier attackers in the first team, and he really didn't feel much when he looked at the thin Chinese player in front of him who could be knocked over with just a slight squeeze.

The ball was quickly returned to midfield, with Genk Dimel in charge of the ball and Yang Yang running to the open to receive the ball.

Even though he has been training for nearly two months, Yang Yang's basic skills are still not good, especially this first touch of the ball.

Henk Dimeer's pass was a bit rushed, Yang Yang failed to stop the first kick, but was caught up by Marvin Dolin, but fortunately he turned to protect the ball at the first time, and quickly passed back to the backline.

Marvin Dolin saw that as soon as he approached, the other party immediately turned around to protect the ball and pass back, thinking that the other party was at a loss, especially when he saw Yang Yang's relieved expression, he sneered twice and slowly retreated towards Yang Yang.

That's all this kid can do.

Yang Yang did secretly breathe a sigh of relief, he really didn't stop the ball just now, and couldn't help but raise his hand to apologize to Henk Dimeer, saying that this attack failure was his responsibility.

Almere's players also know Yang Yang and know that his basic skills are not good, but they know more clearly that as long as Yang Yang stops the ball, that is the moment when he really shows his threat, so everyone is not discouraged.

Soon, after the regrouping, the ball was sent to the midfield again.

This time, Yang Yang ran from the right side to the middle to receive the ball, and successfully stopped his teammate's pass at his feet.

There was no one around to defend, Yang Yang calmly turned around, took the ball forward, and rushed forward like a cheetah.

Marvin Dolin is a player in the fourth division of the league, although he didn't take Yang Yang in his eyes, but the least tactical literacy and strength were there, and he still quickly stood in front of Yang Yang.

One!

Is this kid trying to get past me?

Marvin Dolin looked at Yang Yang, who was approaching the ball, and secretly sneered in his heart.

Didn't he know that he had always been known for being good at defense?

The speed is good, but if you want to break through with speed, this is okay in the youth team, but there is no way in front of you.

Marvin Dolin faced Yang Yang, constantly observing his rhythm and speed with the ball, his body kept retreating, and when Yang Yang entered his defensive range, he immediately took a disturbing action.

Get out of the way to the side!

Affected by Marvin Dolin's interference action, Yang Yang was as he expected, suddenly smashed the ball to the outside, and Marvin Dolin also started with the trend, and he was going to steal directly with his decisive kick, and it was best to be able to knock over this timid Chinese boy at the same time, give him a note of Ma Wei, and let him know the strength of the fourth-level main left fullback.

But as soon as he moved, he felt that the figure in front of him was in chaos, and when he looked at it again, he found that Yang Yang's whole body was in shape, from the original outside breakthrough to the inside breakthrough, and the kick he stretched out was empty.

What's going on?

Yang Yang, who used the pendulum to pass Marvin Dolin in an instant, suddenly started to accelerate at the moment when he passed by the other party, and the speed was obviously faster than just now, directly leaving Marvin Dolin behind.

There was a sudden burst of exclamations around the stadium.

No one thought that as soon as the confrontation began, Marvin Dolin would be easily passed by Yang Yang.

By the time Marvin Dolin turned back, Yang Yang had already hit the right side of the penalty area, and a sudden acceleration of the emergency stop smash shook off the central defender who was rushing to assist in the defense, and easily crossed to the front point, and the striker who came down from the Almere first team easily pushed and hit the goal, scoring a goal for Almere.

"Yay!!!"

Almere's No. 11 center forward was so excited that he rushed towards Yang Yang and quickly picked him up.

The teammates around also pounced on each other and hugged Yang Yang.

"Haha, you kid can do it, it's too good!"

"The opening was a great start, and this breakthrough was really beautiful."

"It's so sharp, it's so powerful!"

"I found out I love you to death, Yang Yang."

All his teammates were cheering and celebrating wildly, and Yang Yang was also smiling from ear to ear.

Who would have thought that Almere broke through the AS80 defence in less than three minutes of the opening kick-off and broke the deadlock on the field first.

Marvin Dolin stood stunned and looked at the Almere players celebrating in disbelief, especially Yang Yang in the center, and he felt extremely ashamed, feeling that he had been played.

Kuhler saw his expression and knew that the team-mate who had come down from the first team was careless.

He had already reminded Marvin Dolin, but the other party obviously didn't listen at all.

The pendulum is over, this is Yang Yang's specialty.

'Don't take it personally, it's just one goal behind and we'll be able to get it back soon.' Kuhler reassured.

That's all he can say at this time.

…………

…………

Seeing Almere score first, John Repp and Dick Van Poel on the sidelines also laughed and cheered.

None of them expected that their team would be able to take the lead.

"This kid has improved again." John Rip's eyes are the sharpest, and he can see it at a glance.

"Yes, look at the breakthrough he made just now, he seems to be very calm and easy." Dick Van Poel was also amazed, although it was a little unexpected, but it did show Yang Yang's strength.

From the last game to now, it has only been half a month, but he has improved again.

"He's progressing so fast, we have to hurry up and prepare." John Rip said.

The preparation he said was to sign a contract with Yang Yang, and it was important to keep Yang Yang in the team.

Dick Van Poel very much agrees that the first team has suffered a serious turnover in the new season, and it is precisely the need for players like Yang Yang to help.

But he can also see that with Yang Yang's current progress rate, Almere will not be able to keep it sooner or later.

"With this goal, I believe the players will be more motivated." John Repp affirmed.

…………

…………

The first goal conceded completely angered the AS80 players, who began to take advantage of the opportunity to re-serve and launched a fierce attack on Almere, using their own strength advantage to suppress Almere on the court.

In the 19th minute of the game, AS80, who had the advantage, finally knocked on Almere's goal.

An assist from Wesley Snoyer allowed Kagri Asante to receive the ball in the box, squeeze his body past a defender, and volley home from close range to pull one back for AS80.

Although Almere was tenacious, he was eventually breached.

With the first goal, AS80 quickly regrouped their attack and in the 31st minute, Wesley Snoyer, with an assist from the number seven left winger, fired a shot from near the penalty spot that penetrated Almere's goal again.

Two-to-one, the AS80 managed to reverse Almere.

From leading to lagging behind, Almere, whose overall strength is far inferior to that of his opponent, can only be beaten passively.

Yang Yang also waited for an opportunity on the right side at first, and then simply returned to defend actively, but never got such a good one-on-one opportunity as in the opening stage, which made it difficult for him to threaten the opponent's goal.

Until the forty-third minute, before the end of the first half, Almere passed the ball to the feet of Yang Yang again after breaking the ball in the backfield, Yang Yang turned his back to the direction of the attack and failed to stop the ball, so he was forced to pass the ball to Henk Dimel and turned around and rushed forward.

This time, Henk Dimel understood the ball, received the ball and passed it back to the right side, and passed the ball to the front of Yang Yang's sprint, so that his speed advantage could be used to the best advantage.

And when Yang Yang caught up with the ball, he faced Marvin Dolin alone again.

It's a one-on-one contest again.
