Football: The immortal legend on the green field

As the head coach of Roda JC, Wordcart knows that the transformed Hallam Athletic is a tough nut to crack. "We don't need to worry about anything. There is still a big gap between their strength and ours, and they mainly control the ball. Even if the weather is bad, we can still win because the weather has no greater impact on them."

The team is currently in good momentum in the league, with a record of four wins and one draw, having climbed to the top of the league. In the cup competition, only Haarlem, Utrecht and themselves are still in the top 16, and the remaining thirteen teams are all from the First Division.

Wodcart replaced four main players in today's lineup. Several midfielders and forwards who relied on their skills remained on the bench, and they were replaced by players with abundant physical strength and strong feet.

After a huge noise, the game started. After the opening, the players of both sides were very cautious due to the weather. After ten minutes of testing each other, Roda JC gradually gained the upper hand. The first place in the league is not based on luck. They frequently shot from outside the penalty area, causing a lot of trouble for the defense of Haarlem Athletic.

"Sure enough, there is a gap in strength... How could Roda JC fail in such a small match?" After observing for 25 minutes, Wordcart finally felt relieved. According to the current situation on the field, it was only a matter of time for Roda JC to score.

Of course, the home team was not completely without opportunities. They also had several great counterattack opportunities, but Deng Zhuoxiang, who received the ball, would always slip on the field and give up possession of the ball, which was a pity.

The drizzle was gradually turning into moderate rain. The rain was getting heavier and heavier. When the ball went out of bounds, the fourth official came to the sidelines to discuss with the referee whether to pause and restart the game when the rain subsided. It was not entirely because of the rain, but because the field was too bad. The grass could not be seen in some low places, forming a swamp.

The midfield advantage of Haarlem could not be fully utilized on this slippery field. This kind of field is extremely unfriendly to fast players. The football often bounces twice behind him and then stops, while he himself cannot stop and slides a long way before stopping. The two flanks of Haarlem were particularly obvious. In less than half an hour, the original colors of Gular and Sterling's jerseys could hardly be recognized.

In such an environment, Roda JC players simply kicked the ball into the penalty area. This style of play was more effective. Before the end of the first half, they had established a two-goal lead.

One of the goals was scored after the opponent's powerful shot was lost by goalkeeper Sasa because the ball was too slippery and he couldn't catch it at all.

During the halftime break, Neeskens came to the locker room with a livid face and pointed at Shen Bin and shouted, "You, stand up!"

Shen Bin's first reaction was "Did you call the wrong person?", but Neeskens was still pointing at him, "It's you!"

Shen Bin pointed at himself and asked, "Are you sure?"

"What are you waiting for?" Neeskens shouted impatiently. "Stand up!"

Almost everyone had an expression that said "there's something fun to watch", but that bastard Gular knew how to enjoy himself. He took out a bucket of popcorn from the locker. I don't know when he prepared it.

Obviously, everyone remembers what happened between the two not long ago, and the recent good results have covered up the conflict between the two, but in fact the conflict has not been resolved.

All the players, Shen Bin's three special medical team members and their three assistant coaches sat neatly on both sides, with only Neeskens and Shen Bin standing in the middle. "Is the nightlife exciting these days?"

Shen Bin had a confused expression on his face. "You'd better find someone else. I will never tolerate being pointed at for no reason. As for the woman you mentioned, I haven't touched her in the past few days. During the league, I won't focus on women. If you use this to attack me, you've found the wrong person."

"Humph!" He made Neeskens laugh. "Rookie, I'm doing this for your own good. You're not even 18 yet. I'm advising you, don't be ungrateful. Then how do you explain your shitty performance in the first half? You didn't play any role in either offense or defense. Do you have a high status? Can you say you're as high as Cruyff was back then? Back then, we lost the World Cup final to Germany because of a woman. I didn't let go of Cruyff's mistakes. Has your fame and football skills surpassed that son of a bitch?"

Ali Han looked at Shen Bin with some interest, to see what measures Shen Bin would take to face the current crisis under such circumstances. Most of the players would swallow their anger in the face of such a situation. After all, the other party is the head coach who can dominate part of the athletes' fate. Just freezing the player would make the athlete's competitive state unguaranteed. Other clubs would not want a player who was suspended for a long time in the transfer market.

Shen Bin knew that Neeskens was blaming him for the failure in the first half, but he knew that Gao Haiyang's visit to Amsterdam to watch the game had touched his nerves, which disrupted Neeskens' grand plan. He must have been waiting for him to take the initiative to find him and show his loyalty to him these days, but he didn't do that. He must have thought that he and the Chinese Football Association had reached some kind of tacit understanding.

Since this is the case, Shen Bin has never been afraid of challenging authority, nor is he afraid that the other side will freeze him out. One reason is the pressure from Harlem's athletic results, and the other is that he is not afraid of not getting the opportunity to train on the court. The high-level game he plays in his dreams every day is much better than the training that active players get from one to two games a week. The games and training in reality are just a reinforcement.

Besides, although Neeskens had a certain influence when he was a player, as a coach, he was not really authoritative, and his old-fashioned and conservative coaching style did not make him an excellent coach.

The more Shen Bin got to know Neeskens in dreams and reality, the more he disliked his white-centric thinking. It was hard to say whether Shen Bin was born with a greater desire to step on those in power to get to the top, or whether he had accumulated more malice towards Neeskens over the past few months.

"I really don't want to have a conflict with an old man like you. You have been living in the beautiful dream of the Netherlands winning the World Cup runner-up 30 years ago. As one of the two big men of the Dutch team, you have no ability to suppress Cruyff, nor to subdue the southerners in the team. You always exclude people of different beliefs and skin colors from your personal circle. The Dutch team failed to win the World Cup in its heyday 30 years ago because of your stupid division of enemies and friends based on beliefs.

You want to put the blame on me for the failed first half, which just shows the incompetence of a coach. Such a slippery field, dribbling skills are shit on such a field, and you chose shit. "

After Shen Bin said this, Neskens became angry.

During the training camp, this form of Neeskens almost destroyed everyone in the team, except the old captain Link and himself. Everyone saw the end of the old captain. He was a healthy and prime-aged man, but he is still on the injury list of Haarlem Athletic.

But the same thing did not happen to Shen Bin.

The game lasted 10 minutes, until the end, Neeskens had to admit that he could not defeat Shen Bin with his own methods, because he came from another continent, and the core of the greatest Dutch team so far had no effect on the hearts of Orientals.

Ali Han was one of the witnesses of this confrontation.

Unfortunately, Neeskens did not defeat Shen Bin as planned.

In Ali Han's opinion, this might be a watershed moment for some things. In this team, from today on, Neeskens is no longer the one who has the final say. Many players may not dare to resist on the surface, but in their hearts they will no longer completely obey him.

Ali Han learned the origin of the ball-control team's tactics during his communication with Martins, which is amazing. According to Martins' analysis, this tactic is just the tip of the iceberg.

Martins' advice was, "If you want to recruit him into the national team and adopt this tactic, you can trust Shen Bin 100%. After all, he is still a child. If you succeed, you will be world-famous, just like Michels. Who still remembers Reynolds, the real inventor of total offense and defense!"
