Chapter 46. Champions League draw (Part I)

Ajax's bench, when Eriksen hoisted the ball into the penalty area, everyone on the bench stood up, and everyone was very sorry and annoyed to see Borigott not reach the ball, but the next moment, everyone was boiling.

The big man Sig Solsen directly picked up Schaefer and swung several times. , frightened Fisher whoow wow.

Blind, who did not play in this game, hugged the substitute goalkeeper Cillessen and kissed him fiercely, looking at Cillessen's frightened appearance, I am afraid that he will be a little farther away from Blind in the future.

And our protagonist threw himself directly into the arms of head coach Frank de Boer!

"Hahaha, look at the Ajax bench, those players are crazy with joy!"

Wright smiled and looked at the jubilant Ajax bench in the camera, and then looked at the somewhat gloomy Van Basten, and felt a little sorry for the other party.

"In this game, Van Basten's tactical arrangement is very targeted, God is also very helpful today, but unfortunately, the last moment did not withstand Ajax's attack, in this way, Heerenveen has not won a game after the start of the new season in the Eredivisie, three draws and one loss are afraid that the club and fans are not satisfied, Van Basten wants to sit firmly in the position of head coach, I am afraid it is necessary to make greater efforts."

'Ajax, on the other hand, have two wins and two draws after this draw, with eight points and two difficult draws, but Ajax's tenacity in the game so far should also be able to be recognized by the fans,'

"After this game, there will be an international break, and as soon as the national break is over, Ajax will have a Champions League game this season, so let's wait and see what happens in coach Frank de Boer's third Champions League tour."

After the game, the Ajax players braved the rain to thank the fans who had come to cheer for the team, and the players and fans shouted to each other and interacted with each other.

"Lee, don't be discouraged!"

"You've done a great job in this game!"

"That referee should go to hell!"

Hearing the voices of encouragement coming from the stands from time to time, Li Lin's heart felt better, the team did not lose, and the encouragement of the fans made Li Lin breathe a sigh of relief.

Especially the encouragement of the fans made Li Lin's heart feel a burst of warmth, the fans are simple and cute, they don't care about your identity, are you just staying in this club temporarily, as long as you have a good performance, as long as you can devote yourself wholeheartedly, they will always support you.

At the post-match press conference, the reporters' questions mainly focused on Borigot's last suspected foul goal and Li Lin's poor performance, fortunately, because Ajax did not lose, Li Lin faced a lot less pressure, but he was questioned by many reporters without scoring in three consecutive games.

Regarding the controversial goal, Van Basten said that the ball was definitely a foul first, Ajax stole a draw from Heerenveen with despicable means, and Frank de Boer was not to be outdone, saying that the referee's penalty scale in this game is like this, Li Lin has been repeatedly violated, but none of the Heerenveen players have been carded, and under this scale, Borigot's suspected foul action is not a foul.

Frank de Boer insinuated that Van Basten only took advantage of it and did not suffer losses, and made Van Basten's anger smoke.

The needle-point pairing of the two head coaches also made the reporters very excited, and this game is destined to generate more topics after the game.

……

The referee was the first to become the focus of media criticism after the game.

For the referee, several media commented that he "completely turned this match into a shoddy clay wrestling show!" Amsterdam Sport directly pointed out that in this game with frequent physical contact, the referee did not show a yellow card, such a loose scale is simply laughable.

In addition, Van Basten's tactical set-up was approved by most of the media, while Frank de Boer's line-up was questioned a lot.

At this time, the media selectively forgot who was touting Frank De Boer's insight and Li Lin's outstanding performance, and began to question Li Lin's ability, believing that Li Lin's performance was gradually mediocre, and that Frank De Boer should not risk putting such a young player in the starting lineup.

Free Holland magazine published an opinion piece "Rising Stars Losing Their Magic", summarizing Li Lin's performance since arriving at Ajax, arguing that after the Eredivisie team gradually became accustomed to Li Lin's characteristics, Li Lin had to make changes to be able to continue his wonderful performances.

The Dutch Telegraph, which formed a bond with Li Lin, directly predicted that Li Lin would follow the same path as Suleimani last year, perform high and low, and finally disappear completely.

In this regard, Frank De Boer and Li Lin did not pay attention to it, and let them say whatever the media likes to say, and if they want to gag their mouths, they can only rely on their performance on the field. ,

And now Ajax is more focused on another thing.

"Li, do you think we can't sign better luck this year?"

Erikson sat in the booth, looking at the small TV in front of him, with a little expectation and hesitation on his face.

"Why, was Ajax's signing bad before?"

Li Lin really didn't know what the situation was about this matter, and he didn't pay much attention to Ajax before.

"We've met Real Madrid in the group stage for the second year in a row!"

Hearing Eriksen's words, Li Lin nodded clearly, Ajax's strength must still be very good in China, but if you go out to compete with all the giants in Europe, it will naturally be much inferior, let alone against a team like Real Madrid.

"But as a team in the third pot, it is really difficult for us to meet a weaker group, only Porto and AC Milan are relatively weak in the first pot, and the second pot is full of strong teams in various leagues, and it is probably an unattainable wish to really be divided into a particularly weak group."

Li Lin naturally hopes that Ajax can be divided into a weaker group, but that is hope.

"I just hope that I don't touch Real Madrid again, it's good to change opponents, it's really been a terrible loss in the past two years."

Eriksen only felt that in the past two years, the team's matches with Real Madrid were like nightmares, and every game was a big win of more than 2 goals, which was simply miserable.

"Don't think about it, here we go!"

Seeing that Eriksen was a little stunned, Li Lin pushed the other party.

I saw that familiar face appeared again on the TV.

UEFA President Michel Platini!

At the Hall of Parliament at Monaco Place des Crowns, at the scene of the draw for the UEFA Champions League group stage, a somewhat nervous Frank de Boer exhaled deeply, watching the famous players in football history draw out the teams in the first and second pots one by one, and a heart has gradually risen to his throat.

'Porto and Dynamo Kyiv are in Group A, so obviously this group is obviously the weaker group.

"Except for Real Madrid and Manchester City, two teams that are obviously stronger, they are in Group D, and the rest of the groups are basically the same, but the key points in this draw are the teams in Pot 3 and Pot 4."

"In the third pot of teams, there are strong teams like Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus, and in the fourth pot there are Dortmund, the Bundesliga giants who won the Bundesliga title last year, these three teams are undoubtedly unwilling to meet all teams, especially Dortmund, he is in the fourth pot, no matter which group he goes to, it will be a big headache!"

With the sound of live commentary, the draw for the third team began!
