Chapter 206 The First Big Four
"I didn't expect this kid to be in such a good state. It seems that the next game will not be easy!" Garrison put down the small binoculars, took a notebook and wrote down the words "extraordinary header".

As a reporter for "World Sports Daily", Garrison still likes the days when he goes abroad to watch football at public expense.Maybe it's still too young, alone, without family concerns.After learning that he was going to the Netherlands to observe the "enemy situation", the editor-in-chief of the newspaper first thought of him.

As we all know, "Mundo Deportivo" is the oldest sports newspaper in Spain and the second oldest in Europe.Its headquarters is located in Barcelona, ​​and it is also the Queen's newspaper of the Barcelona club.It couldn't be easier to send a small reporter to observe the opponent's situation.

Just when Eindhoven killed Ajax three times in the away game, Barcelona and the yellow submarine of La Liga came to a chasing battle.

Barcelona, ​​who fell behind by 3 goals in the first half, finally regained their form in the away game in the 37th minute. Dutch international Kluivert first moved back a goal for Barcelona, ​​blowing the clarion call for Barcelona's counterattack.

An hour into the game, Barcelona finally equalized the score.However, just 5 minutes later, the Yellow Submarine scored another goal to take the lead.

For a time, the yellow cards of both sides continued, Barcelona attacked violently, and Villarreal defended desperately.

In the end, in the 3rd minute of stoppage time, Kluivert scored a hat-trick with an equal contribution and won a valuable point for Barcelona in the away game.

Although the game was tied, all Barcelona personnel were exhausted.Some players with glass man attributes had to spend time in the club's recovery room, and they couldn't even join the squad for the next game.

At this moment, the report of Eindhoven's victory over Ajax came from the Netherlands. How can the Barcelona club sit still?
During this period of time, Eindhoven fought on the third front, almost every game in 3 days.I thought that Eindhoven would fight Ajax to the death, but I didn't expect that it would be too disappointing to beat Ajax, without the demeanor of the former overlord.Now, the club has to send scouts to observe the situation in PSV, which will determine the focus of Barcelona's next two games.

Not everyone has the energy of Bai Xiaotian.On the day of the match between Eindhoven and Heerenveen, Guardiola announced to the world that his physical condition no longer allowed him to persist in a club as competitive as Barcelona, ​​and he would leave at the end of the season.While Barcelona fans lamented, they couldn't help worrying about the club's future.

The team members are constantly injured, and the league is drawing to a close.Every La Liga game now is crucial and will determine whether Barca will qualify for the Champions League next season.And the Europa League cannot be easily given up. The Europa League is the only championship that Barcelona is expected to compete for this season. Even if the coach wants to let it go for La Liga, the fans will not agree.

Thankfully, PSV have played two more games than Barcelona in that span, and one can only hope their players are exhausted as well.

"It seems that only Kežman's injury is considered good news." Garrison continued to write and draw in his notebook, not paying any attention to the cheering fans around him again.

In the 34th minute of the game, Bai Xiaotian, who has never been very sticky to the ball, stopped the ball at the front of the penalty area, and instantly made a double touch.Double-teamed by two defenders from Heerenveen, they miraculously used a fried ball to break into the penalty area with the ball, creating a single-handed opportunity.

Although Hans Funk blocked it immediately, Bai Xiaotian pushed a far corner and the ball hit the net.

At this point in the game, the players, coaches, substitutes and fans of Heerenveen all turned their heads.Because they know that this season's Dutch Cup tour is over, and the rest is how to resist the massacre of Eindhoven.

In the first half alone, Bai Xiaotian proved himself with a hat-trick. Bai Xiaotian's performance like a football king completely broke Heerenveen's confidence and morale.

After being passed, Tim could only stare at Bai Xiaotian's back, watching him succeed in the shot. "Fack, hurry up and end this damn game!" Tim spat secretly, spitting on the ground called dissatisfaction.

Rainier and Gretz had long been huddled on the sidelines. They had forgotten about the Batman who was sent back to Eindhoven to recuperate. At this moment, they only had the Chinese who flipped somersaults in their eyes.

"Coach, I just said it, he is a "Far East genius" who can't lose to Ronaldo!"

"Of course, I never objected!"

After the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, the Heerenveen players flew back to the locker room, enjoying a moment of peace.

Gretz felt that the score of 3-0 was already safe, and Heerenveen was almost impossible to come back, so he approached Bai Xiaotian and asked tentatively, "Bai, you played well. Come down and rest in the second half."

Bai Xiaotian wiped the sweat from his head, felt his body, and said, "Coach, I feel good today. Let's play for another 10 minutes. I'll be off after 10 minutes."

"Well, as you wish." Gretz didn't care, even if Bai Xiaotian wanted to play the whole court, he would agree, after all, Bai Xiaotian was too energetic, "Be careful, don't get hurt."

Kežman will not be able to play for at least two weeks, which means that he not only missed the Dutch Cup, but also missed the next European game.At this juncture, Gretz naturally does not want any surprises for the new stars in the team.

Fortunately, the Eredivisie teams are not very strong against each other, and there is a big gap between strong teams and weak teams.If it is a game with strong physical confrontation like the Premier League, Gretz will never let Bai Xiaotian continue to play.

The players played well today, and Gretz didn't arrange any tactics during the midfield.After all, the players cannot go home after the game.Because the next Eredivisie game is also an away game, if you rush back to Eindhoven and then go to Arnhem, it will be even more tossing.

After 15 minutes, the players recovered a lot of physical strength and continued to fight for the second half.Gretz only said one sentence: "Pay attention to safety, don't be careless." He hit the players one by one and gave some encouragement from the coach.

At the beginning of the second half, the Heerenveen players did not know what kind of instructions they had received during the intermission, and suddenly launched a massive attack, quite like staging the "Istanbul" night in advance.

The ferocious high-post press in the frontcourt made PSV overwhelmed for a while. Van Bommel and Kevin Hovland frequently connected for a while, and even Bai Xiaotian and Ruud van Nistelrooy also participated in the defense.

However, just as Heerenveen was attacking fiercely.Kevin Hovland used his strong body to directly squeeze away Heerenveen's striker, roared, and directly pushed the ball out of the penalty area.

John de Jong leaned against the opposition striker and watched the ball land in front of him and then bounce again and fall again.After calculating in his mind, he kicked a barb without turning his body, kicking the ball high and far.

Just when others thought it was a meaningless kick to clear the siege, a red and white figure suddenly stepped in, and Bai Xiaotian, who ran near the right line, competed with the opponent's defender for the top.

At such a height, the opponent's defender only intends to interfere with Bai Xiaotian. After the ball goes out of bounds, the players will have a lot of time to return to defense.

But he still underestimated Bai Xiaotian's bounce, the ball was rubbed against Bai Xiaotian's forehead between the two of them, landed accurately in the bounds, and bounced forward along the sideline.

The referee just put his whistle in his mouth after seeing the two fell to the ground, but saw something, and never blew it.

Heerenveen's defender lay flat on the ground and couldn't get up, while Bai Xiaotian endured the pain in his armpit, switched directly to the live mode, and controlled his body to stride forward again.

After seeing Bai Xiaotian, who started staggeringly from outside the boundary, catch up with the ball again, earth-shattering shouts erupted from the stands of the visiting team again.

Amanda in the stands waved her coat vigorously, and two water balloons were up and down in the air, "Oh! He is so strong, so powerful!"

He dribbled the ball obliquely into the penalty area at high speed, and the last defender of the opponent saw Bai Xiaotian rushing in front of him, so he had to stretch his foot to intercept.

Cut in at right angles!Bai Xiaotian in the live mode used this skill in an instant.The next moment, Bai Xiaotian stretched out his left foot and slammed into the back of the ball.

"What? He turned out to be." Hans Funk, who made a mistake in his judgment, threw himself at the lower right corner of the goal after fighting against the inertia, but it was still a step too late.The ball, rolling at high speed on the ground, went straight into the near corner of the goal.
