God of Green

Ajax Football Club is the most successful team in the Netherlands and one of the most successful teams in Europe. It has won the European Champions League four times, which is enough to beat most of the giants in the top five European leagues.

However, due to the overall economy and league atmosphere of the Netherlands, after the Bosman Act, all Dutch teams, including Ajax, have gradually become the star training bases of the top five European leagues.

Even with the change of identity, Ajax is still known as the world's number one star-making factory, training countless core players of the Dutch national team, and giving birth to countless superstars such as Cruyff, Van Basten, and Bergkamp.

After Jiang Xiaolin was taken in by the Chinese restaurant owner Song Zhicheng, the two had entered the Ajax youth training camp for trial training through Song Zhicheng's relationship, but at that time Jiang Xiaolin had not yet been possessed by the system, and was completely at the level of an ordinary Chinese high school student amateur player.

With such a level, how could he pass the Ajax trial and enter the youth training camp of the first giant in the Dutch League?

Therefore, Jiang Xiaolin was eliminated after playing only half a game.

Originally, it was acceptable to be eliminated if one's level was not good enough. This was how the football world was.

However, during the trial, Jiang Xiaolin was discriminated against by some Ajax youth training coaches and players. This discrimination included his skin color, nationality, and his skills, and his hair that was more than that of Europeans due to his genetic regression.

This involved the bottom line of personality, which Jiang Xiaolin could not forgive.

Therefore, when he was in the Alkmaar youth team, Jiang Xiaolin led his teammates in the youth team to a bloodbath of the Ajax youth team with a score of 9-0 in the Ajax U19 youth training camp with six goals in a single game, giving the opponent an unforgettable defeat.

However, that was only a youth team game, and the goals would not be counted as official goals in his career. Almost no one paid attention to it, and Jiang Xiaolin did not completely achieve his goal of revenge.

Now, in the next Eredivisie, Jiang Xiaolin will truly meet Ajax, the overlord of Dutch football, on behalf of the Alkmaar first team, and have a chance to truly retaliate against Ajax.

In fact, long before Jiang Xiaolin joined Alkmaar and made his mark, Ajax's dark history of kicking Jiang Xiaolin out for a trial was dug up by reporters and became a joke in the Dutch and even European football circles.

The coach who kicked Jiang Xiaolin out had also been terminated by the club. No matter how the coach explained how poor Jiang Xiaolin's skills were at the time, no one believed him.

Everyone believed that it must be his lack of vision that caused Ajax to miss a potential world star like Jiang Xiaolin, allowing Alkmaar to get a bargain.

Now that Jiang Xiaolin has led the Chinese team to win the Olympic championship, topped the Dutch league scorer list, and demonstrated an unstoppable trend of becoming a superstar, Ajax has become a laughing stock around the world, just like the Argentine Newell's Old Boys Club that gave up treating Messi's dwarfism.

But no matter how Ajax is ridiculed by the media and fans, it has nothing to do with Jiang Xiaolin.

What he wants is to defeat Ajax head-on.

After returning to Alkmaar and resuming team training for two days, on November 23, Alkmaar played at home against Ajax in the 12th round of the Dutch Eredivisie this season.

Before the game, a Dutch media interviewed Jiang Xiaolin, asking him about his grudge with Ajax, and what he would do in this game, and whether he would go all out against Ajax like he did against Vitesse.

Jiang Xiaolin did not hide his hatred, and for the first time personally announced to the outside world what he had experienced during his trial at Ajax and what he would do in this game:

"When I went to Ajax for a trial, my skills were not as good as they are now. I actually have no complaints about failing the trial and being kicked out."

"However, during the trial, I was discriminated against by some coaches and players in the Ajax youth training camp. This discrimination included my skin color, nationality, skills, and my excessive hair, etc."

"I can understand being rejected for poor skills, but I can understand racial discrimination. , insults to my personality, etc. I will never forgive them. ”

“This league is my first time to meet Ajax in the adult first team, and I will definitely fight hard. ”

“In fact, everyone who has watched my games knows that I go all out in every game and run and fight until the last minute. However, in this game against Ajax, I will be more motivated, and I will fight Ajax to the end. ”

“As for my teammates, I don’t know what they think, and I won’t ask them for help like I did against Vitesse. If they are willing to help me take revenge on Ajax, I am naturally willing to do so. But if they are unable to help me with all their strength due to the overall league strategy and energy conservation, I will not blame you. "

"But the most basic point is that Alkmaar will definitely win this game, and we will beat Ajax by a large margin."

After Jiang Xiaolin's interview was published, he received support from many black and yellow players.

It is common for players of color to be racially discriminated against in Europe, but most of it comes from fans with low quality or even football hooligans.

It is a bad thing for players to be discriminated against by coaches and players during trials.

Therefore, many people supported Jiang Xiaolin and supported him to take revenge.

Of course, Jiang Xiaolin's statement that Alkmaar will surely beat Ajax has also been questioned and even criticized.

After all, Ajax is the most successful club in the Netherlands, and its media and fan base are much stronger than Alkmaar.

According to the rebuttal of some media and fans, Jiang Xiaolin is ignorant of the world. , he is arrogant and thinks he is great after becoming a little famous. He even ignores Ajax, a European giant that has won four Champions Leagues. It is unknown when Jiang Xiaolin can win four Champions Leagues.

Ajax also has senior executives who stand up and say that there are many geniuses in the world, and Jiang Xiaolin is not the most special one.

If Jiang Xiaolin thinks that he can just score two goals and does not take Ajax seriously, Ajax will let him know what a giant is!

Later, Van Gaal stood up to support Jiang Xiaolin, saying that Jiang Xiaolin is a football genius that only appears once in a century. As long as nothing unexpected happens, he will grow into a world-class star. At that time, Ajax will know what they have missed.

Only in this league, Van Gaal claimed that he would support Jiang Xiaolin to take revenge on Ajax.

This will make Jiang Xiaolin Lin's personal hatred has risen to the club level.

Not to mention Jiang Xiaolin's popularity among his teammates, just the fact that Van Gaal, as the head coach, stood up to support Jiang Xiaolin can make the team unanimous and unswervingly support Jiang Xiaolin's revenge.

In addition, the stars of the two teams also stood up to express their confidence in their team's victory over the opponent.

In fact, in addition to the grudge between Jiang Xiaolin and Ajax, the two teams had a war of words before the game, and because the two teams ranked first and second in the standings, some neutral media called this game the battle for the top spot in the Eredivisie.

Because after the last round of the league, Alkmaar ranked first in the Eredivisie standings with 27 points, and Ajax ranked second with 25 points. The two sides were exactly the top two, and Ajax was only 2 points behind.

As long as Ajax wins this game, they can reverse the points and rank first.

Therefore, this battle for the top spot is also worthy of the name.

In addition to Jiang Xiaolin's factor, Ajax wants to maintain its dignity as the leader of the Dutch League, and Alkmaar wants to challenge the dominance of traditional giants in the Dutch League. This game between the two sides will definitely be a fierce battle.

On the day of the game, the weather was bad and it was raining moderately, but it did not stop the enthusiasm of the fans of both sides. The fans of both sides still rushed to the stadium early, put up banners and waved flags in the stands and started a tit-for-tat war of words.

As a Dutch giant, Ajax has a lot of fans. There are more than 3,000 away fans in this game.

However, Alkmaar is not bad either, filling up all the remaining positions.

After all, Alkmaar is the home court, and the fans still have an advantage in momentum.

Even if this is a rainy game, the stadium is still full, which shows the attraction of Alkmaar's ranking first in the standings to fans.

But the final result of the game still depends on the performance of the players. Whether it is the verbal battle before the game or the verbal battle among the fans, it all depends on who wins.

Whoever wins is right, and history is written by the winner.

At 12:30 noon on November 23, 2008, with the referee's whistle, the 12th round of the 2008/2009 Eredivisie season, Alkmaar's home game against Ajax, officially started in the rain.

The rain game has a great impact on both sides. At least the ground attack is basically useless. Many times the ball gets stuck in the puddle halfway through the pass and there are many mistakes.

If you want to pass the ball normally, it is best to pass it in the air. But that requires a higher level of passing for the passer and a higher level of stopping for the receiver, and it is not easy to operate.

So both sides made mistakes in this game, and many times they were thrown to the ground and collided.

But relatively speaking, Alkmaar has Jiang Xiaolin, who is strong, fast, and has a floating position without the ball.A striker who is unpredictable, quick to grab points, perfect in stopping the ball, has the best bounce, full header value, and superb shooting skills still has a great advantage.

At least, when attacking, as long as his teammates pass the ball near Jiang Xiaolin, Jiang Xiaolin has a great chance to grab the ball and pose a threat.

Therefore, whether in the field or in actual attack, Alkmaar, who plays at home, has a relatively large advantage.

If there had not been this heavy rain, Ajax might have really been able to use their all-out attack and defense technical advantages as a giant with a stronger foundation to compete with Alkmaar.

But this heavy rain wiped out Ajax's only advantage and turned it into a one-man show by Jiang Xiaolin.

Alkmaar scored a goal in just the third minute of the opening.

The source of this attack was a pass error in Ajax's ground attack.

Of course, the reason for the error was not that Ajax's players were not good at it, but that they were trapped by the water on the court.

When Ajax midfielder Lindgren passed the ball to Aianan'ao on the wing, the ball suddenly got stuck in a puddle in the middle and was easily intercepted by David Mendes who happened to be near the ball path, and then passed it to the wing forward Moussa Dembele on the other side of the court with a long pass.

Because Lindgren was holding the ball just now, the players of both sides were on one side of the court, and there was no one defending Dembele on the other side.

He easily received Mendes' long pass in the air in the gap, and then rushed to the bottom line of Ajax with the ball from the wing.

The full-back Van der Wiel retreated and defended, and suddenly rushed to steal the ball about 20 meters away from the bottom line, but was unexpectedly passed by Dembele with a crotch pass.

Dembele broke through Van der Wiel and dribbled the ball to the bottom.

At this time, Jiang Xiaolin and Hamdaoyi in the middle were about to rush into the penalty area.

Seeing this, Dembele immediately kicked the ball to the middle without waiting for Van der Wiel, who had just been broken through by him, to catch up.

In fact, the quality of this pass was not good. The position was not the front point where Hamdaoyi ran to, nor the middle where Jiang Xiaolin was sprinting, but fell behind the two people between the penalty area line and the penalty spot.

According to the sprinting speed of Jiang Xiaolin and Hamdaoyi at this time, the two would probably run too far.

Hamdaoyi and the defenders of Ajax all ran too far and rushed to the small penalty area line.

But Jiang Xiaolin did not.

Although it was raining, Jiang Xiaolin's full-value ability to grab points still allowed him to instantly judge that Dembele's cross was not passed well, and the landing point was a bit unsatisfactory, and he could no longer use a header to head it.

However, Jiang Xiaolin had many shooting skills.

Moreover, his reaction was too fast.

While others were still rushing towards the small penalty area line due to inertia, Jiang Xiaolin had already stepped on the brakes on the penalty area line.

Then he took two steps forward by inertia, then turned around and jumped, and performed a back-hook shot with his back to the goal.

You know, Jiang Xiaolin's back-hook shot is also a full value of 20.

In addition, because Jiang Xiaolin judged the sudden brake of the ball in advance, he shook off the defender around him a little, leaving him a small gap.

So, Jiang Xiaolin completed this back-hook shot without anyone interfering closely, and then his whole body fell to the ground, splashing water.

But Jiang Xiaolin didn't care about this?

Even if he fell, he twisted his head awkwardly, looking at the ball flying towards the goal, hoping that this shot could hit the goal frame and form a goal.

Fortunately, although the rain had some impact on him, with Jiang Xiaolin's full-value bounce, shooting and back-hook shot skills, the impact was not fatal.

At least, he kicked the ball within the goal frame, and with full power.
