"Guys, come over here and introduce you to some new friends!"

After a positive operation, Antwerp finally completed the recruitment before the winter transfer window closed. Not only did they sign four players on loan from Manchester United, but they also recalled Christopher, who had played for the club.

The signings didn't attract much attention in Belgium, but they did make a splash in Antwerp. In particular, Christopher's re-joining has caused dissatisfaction among many fans. Although Christopher has repeatedly stated that he will not be involved in gambling and will not fall into gambling again, he has not been able to get the understanding of the fans.

This made the ambitious Van Ake have a trace of worry in his heart, and he does not know if the players will be able to accept Christopher.

"Christopher, how did he come back?"

"Does he still want to keep playing?"

"He's just a scumbag, and he still has a face to appear here!"

The players have a positive attitude towards signings, after all, the stronger the team, the better they will be able to achieve in the league.

But when Christopher appeared on the sidelines, the players immediately started talking.

"Who is Christopher?"

Yu Liang, who was standing among his teammates, recognized four of them at a glance.

They are Floribel Nigalola, Darren Gibson, Jonathan Evans and Fraser Campbell, all from Manchester United's youth and development squads.

Listening to his teammates talking about Christopher, Yu Liang couldn't help but be a little curious.

"He's been playing here for the past few seasons, he's a gambler, and I heard he seems to be involved in gambling!"

Hearing King Dong say this, Yu Liang understood.

Why so many teammates are repulsive about Christopher, no one wants an unstable element in their team. But in that case, why did Van Ake bring Christopher back?

"Is he powerful?"

Looking at Christopher's figure of nearly one meter nine, Yu Liang continued to ask King Dong beside him. A centre-back with such a strong and tall stature can indeed put a lot of pressure on the opponent's strikers when defending.

"It's amazing, his air defense and marking ability are very strong, and the most important thing is that his turning speed is not slow, and he is very flexible!"

Listening to King Dong's evaluation, it is not difficult for Yu Liang to understand why Van Ake wanted to bring back the infamous player.

"Hello, I'm Christopher!"

"Hello, I'm Yu, you can call me Madman!"

As soon as he finished talking to King Dong, Willockx walked over with them. Behind Christopher is Yu Liang's teammate of Manchester United, so naturally there is no need to introduce him.

Once everyone had gotten to know each other, they quickly got into training.

The big win in the last round of the league swept away the haze of many consecutive rounds of winlessness, and the atmosphere in the training ground was quite relaxed.

Three days after the new signings joined the team, they welcomed their opponents in the 21st round of the league at home, Deniz. Since the start of the second stage of the league, Deniz has only won two games, and the league points are at the bottom of the league, deep in the relegation zone.

For such a relegation team, it is not to be underestimated, and they are often able to burst out with strong energy in the face of adversity. So even after three days' time, they will travel to Biershot, where Van Ake will still field the strongest squad in his hands.

On the front line, Dong Wang is still beating Lukovic and Ogunn as a single arrow, he has scored 10 goals in the league, and is currently ranked third in the league scorer list, only one goal away from the top, and is very likely to become the first player among Chinese players in Europe to win individual honors.

In midfield, Di Gregorio is up front, Soleimani and Verbist are on the wings, and Yu Liang and Feljans are partnered in the back.

At the back, left-back Cedric, centre-back Micham and Lavan partnered, and right-wing-back was teenager Lart.

The goalkeeper position is still captain Willocks.

None of the players brought in in the winter were able to make the starting line-up, with only Christopher and Nicarora in the squad.

After the start of the game, Antwerp, which was playing at home, launched a bombardment with the cheering of the fans.

used the surprise attack on the side, frequently crossed, and created a chance for King Dong to hit the goal with a header. Although King Dong has the upper hand in the process of fighting for the top, the number of attacks that really threaten the goal is not very many. On the contrary, Di Gregorio made sudden cold arrows from time to time in the middle, which brought more threat to the opponent's goal.

In defense, under the interception of Feljans and Yu Liang, the opponent's attack is basically difficult to pass through the midfield.

In this way, the two sides were deadlocked for less than 20 minutes, and Deniz's gate was lost.

In the 18th minute, Ferjans formed a steal in the middle circle and divided Yu Liang. After winning the ball, Yu Liang passed straight to Di Gregorio in the frontcourt. Di Gregorio combined with Verbist on the wing, slotted into the box from the ribs, attracted the defenders, and then passed back to Verbist with his heel. Verbicial crossed to King Dong in the middle, and King Dong carried the opponent's central defender with his right foot and pushed it into the net, scoring his eleventh goal in the league.

1-0！

After taking the lead, the Antwerp players were a little relaxed.

In the 27th minute, Yu Liang's return pass was less powerful and was tackled by the opponent's player, forming a counterattack and equalizing the score.

1-1！

Yu Liang was very annoyed by the conceded goal, and after the game restarted, he wanted to instigate an attack to overtake the score.

However, the players who had slackened could not put all their energy into the attack, and in the end the two sides returned to the dressing room with a 1-1 scoreline.

"I'd love to know what you guys are thinking about in the game? Upgrade? Man, in our state, it's a big joke to want to get promoted in the league! Isn't it Yu? ”

Yu Liang, who sat on the seat without saying a word, could feel the anger in Van Ake's heart.

Indeed, he was 100 per cent responsible for the goal he lost, and he couldn't argue with it.

"I don't care what you're going on in your head, even if it's the third page girl of The Sun! But in the game, please be focused, any mistake can cause the game to lose! Do you want to lose your bet with Jason? ”

"No, sir, I know what to do!"

After joining Antwerp, this was the first time Yu Liang felt Van Ack's anger. Listening to Van Ake's words, Yu Liang couldn't help but feel a little hot.

“OK！ Guys, I know what you guys think. But put away your ridiculous thoughts, we don't have the right to hold anything in the game against any opponent! Victory, I want victory! ”

After that, Van Ake left the dressing room directly.

"Yu, don't care, the head coach doesn't mean anything else!"

After Van Ake left the dressing room, captain Willockx left and walked over.

"Don't worry! Captain, I know! But we can't afford to lose, we need to win! What's more, I want the team to be upgraded! ”

When he said this, a smile appeared on Yu Liang's face.

"Don't worry! Madman, we'll be sure to level up! I won't let you perform and eat football! ”

"Hahaha......"

The second half of the game began quickly, and the players who had been scolded by Van Ake in midfield started aggressively fighting immediately after the game began.

The players' aggressive scramble quickly yielded results.

In the 48th minute, Feuernes suddenly stepped forward and tackled in the opponent's half, directly creating a counterattack opportunity. After Di Gregorio received a pass from Feljans, he went directly to the right side, and Larte, who was inserted at high speed, faced the opponent's defender, directly used his speed to break through, and then smashed the ball near the top corner of the penalty area, shook off the opponent's defender, and crossed directly.

The ball crossed the middle with an outspin and went straight to the back post, and after receiving the ball, Soleimani calmly adjusted and crossed again.

The football crossed the front point and accurately found King Dong in the middle of the penalty area.

In the face of the incoming ball, King Dong hit it hard, and the football flew directly into the near corner, 2-1!

After taking the lead again, the players did not let up.

In the 52nd minute, they doubled the score again, this time it was Di Gregorio who scored. received a pass from his teammates and scored with a long shot directly from outside the penalty area, 3-1!

After gaining a two-goal advantage, Van Ake made an immediate adjustment. Although they are not entitled to hold back in the game, they are two goals ahead at the moment and he must prepare for the next cup game against Biershot.

replaced King Dong, the attacker, with Ogun. When King Dong left the game, the stadium immediately burst into earth-shattering applause, and Van Ake's substitution can be regarded as a reward for King Dong's change of direction.

Shortly after making changes up front, Van Ake made changes to the backline, replacing Michm with Biga.

Van Ake's signal did not weaken Antwerp's attack.

In the 70th minute, Antwerp took advantage of a set-piece opportunity and scored a goal from Lawan to make the score 4-1 and firmly hold the victory.

After Lavan's goal, Van Ake made another substitution, replacing Di Gregorio and bringing on Nigalola to continue to strengthen the defence.

In the end, Antwerp beat Deniz 4-1 at home to make it two wins in a row in the league.

Two big wins in a row in the league also made the players look forward to the midweek game.

In their post-match interviews, a number of players expressed their hope to beat Bierschot in midweek and progress to the last four of the Cup.

"Promotion, hi, Chinese, are you not wrong?"

When interviewed by reporters, Yu Liang also expressed his willingness to be promoted.

This made Jason on the side very unhappy, and looked at Yu Liang with an angry face: "You lost the game 0-2 in the first round, do you think you can do it?" ”

"Why not?"

"Qualifying means you have to score more than three goals inside the Stadio Olimpic. I don't think you can do it! ”

Jason had a smile on his face as he said this, and he had always maintained confidence in Bill Shot's offense.

"It's not easy, but that doesn't mean we can't do it!"

"Are you dreaming?"

"Maybe! But if a person lives without even a dream, what is the difference between it and a salted fish? ”

After finishing speaking, Yu Liang didn't care that Jason didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, and left the sidelines directly......
