Chapter 46: The Expedition to Rotterdam (Part I)

Facing a girl like Zhang Yao, He Xu, who had no feelings for her but had been ruthless, really knelt down.

The "brain-dead" He Xu could only be forced to accept the fact that Zhang Miao was going to Rotterdam with him, although they did not take the same flight, but He Xu always felt that there were gloomy eyes staring at him around him, which made him even worry when he looked at the flight attendant.

By the time he realized that he should have let go of his enjoyment, he had already arrived at his destination.

The head coach of Rotterdam Elite is a middle-aged man with a gloomy face, and it is a bit difficult to manage such a struggling team without looking gloomy. After being promoted to Division A for three consecutive years and falling back to Division B, then promoted again, and then relegated again, which chairman can stand such a wonderful result?

Although the head coach seems to have lived long enough, he has not yet stepped down. But he always had a dangling sword over his head, which could fall at any moment.

As a result, he is studying their first opponent in the Dutch Cup, where they have the only chance, even though this team seems to him to be completely invincible.

Compared with him, Ronald Koeman, who led the team to Rotterdam, is in much better shape, after all, because of He Xu and Garrincha's excellent performance, he has temporarily lost the crisis of getting out of class.

Good mentality, no worries. Ronald Coman has some shameless joy, at the end of the day, opponents are weak, as long as you take advantage of the opportunity, it would be easy to beat them.

But when he got on the pitch, Koeman realized that many of the things he took for granted in his experience were not so ideal.

……

He Xu finally scored the first header of his career in training the day before the game, although it was only in training, but this made He Xu very pleased.

Massimo Charlie's increased experience has also made him look more comfortable on the pitch, commanding the flag backline and not looking like a young man who is still underage, and has not shown any timidity at all.

Looking at the performance of the young players, Coman had to continue to sigh that this group of demons is indeed outstanding.

After acclimatising to the field, Koeman's original intention was to let the players go back to the hotel for a good rest.

I don't know if it was deliberate on the part of the Rotterdam elite or if the fans were too fanatical. As the Ajax players were about to board the team bus, a small group of fans suddenly surrounded the bus.

The Rotterdam fans were not just trying to chat with the Ajax players, and they were scolding as they crowded inside. There were also a few more radical fans who threw scarves printed with slogans such as "Long live the elite of Rotterdam" directly at the faces of the Ajax players, and one was thrown at He Xu, who grabbed it quickly, and saw that it was actually written "Feyenoord is invincible"

After all, a sworn enemy in the same city is a little more intimate than a sworn enemy in the same country, right?

After going through hardships and dangers, they returned to the hotel, but when they arrived downstairs at the hotel, there were still people there who were "welcome" them.

Stekelenburg, who was walking behind He Xu and played a great role in protection, cursed in a low voice, "These bastards! With such a big battle, those who don't know think we won the World Cup! ”

He Xu was speechless, winning the World Cup is much grander than this, right? You can't even do metaphors, no wonder you can't get the World Cup! Of course, this can only be thought about, and if it is said, I am afraid that the captain will clean himself up with the fans.

Because he was going to compete the next day, He Xu specially told Zhang Yao that she didn't harass herself. Lying in the hotel room, He Xu, who was not harassed, slept comfortably this night, and had a dream that he had never dreamed of before.

……

In the locker room, He Xu and Garrincha were both standing at the back of the team, and Stekelenburg also cheered up the young players, "Don't worry! Guys, the opponent is nothing more than a lift team, cheer up, our goal is to beat them! Don't forget, even Dortmund has been cleaned up by us. ”

The players were generally relaxed, and as they walked out, VanderWiel suddenly asked, "Captain, if you win the game, should you ask your brothers to go out and relax today?" ”

Stekelenburg smiled, "No problem, everyone here must go." After a moment's hesitation, he added, "Except for the underage!" ”

As soon as the words fell, he was booed by several underage players, and Stekelenburg laughed: "Am I not afraid of taking you badly?" ”

Seeing them talking and laughing, the players of the Rotterdam elite standing next to them were clearly angry, but some of them did a good job of hiding it. But someone also said uncontrollably, "Just you? Let's think about how to win the game! ”

A large number 10 is written on the back of the person who spoke, and his name is supposed to be Alecic.

Ajax still lined up their strongest squad for this campaign, and Koeman relaxed but not daring to be arrogant.

Naturally, the Rotterdam elite players are like many players from the second division, and the Ajax players don't know each other.

The two teams walked on the field, and the home stadium of Rotterdam's elite, which is not big, turned out to be noisy, and He Xu looked at a bunch of slogans mocking Ajax on the opposite stand with some weakness, and then he understood that the Dutch fans would attack their opponents so frantically.

He Xu is actually too simple, fans all over the world are the same crazy, just the difference between crazy and even crazier.

When Ajax kicked off, He Xu and Garrincha stood in the middle circle, Garrincha suddenly asked weakly, "Hey!" I don't think the people on the other side look at us at all. ”

He Xu glanced at him, "You came to someone's door to take down someone's team, do you still want them to kneel down to greet you?" ”

Garrincha said innocently: "But I played a few away games, and none of the other teams did this!" ”

He Xu, who was forced to be helpless by Garincha, replied, "If you rush them with this attitude, you have to defeat them." ”

Garrincha thought to himself: It's hard to say whether we will defeat them, or whether they will kick us out, no matter how you look at them, it seems that we owe them wages, I suspect that they are easy to kick us.

He Xu didn't speak, and went forward as soon as he opened the ball.

Zhang Yao in the stands was once again very excited, although He Xu only ran two steps on the field and didn't do anything.

Garrincha passed the ball back to Chim de Jong, who was unexpectedly forced up by the Rotterdam player as soon as he received the ball, probably because the warm-up activities were not done well, but Chim de Jong, who was still stable with the ball, lost the ball at once.

Perhaps it was at this time that the tone of the Ajax expedition to Rotterdam was really set.
