God of Greenery

According to Hamdoy, this Lens is only 20 years old this year, and he didn't show much strength when he was in Alkmaar.

Otherwise, Van Gaal would not be excluded from Alkmaar's lineup this season and be loaned out.

But people are such strange animals sometimes.

Maybe it was stimulated by being loaned out, or maybe the environment in Nijmegen is more suitable for Lens. Anyway, Lens is really at home in Nijmegen.

This season, Lens has scored 12 goals in Nijmegen and has several assists.

Although it is far behind Jiang Xiaolin, as a young loan player, he can score so many goals in a season and firmly occupy a main position, which shows how powerful Lens' talent and strength are.

Not everyone is as monstrous and perverted as Jiang Xiaolin.

In this game, facing his old club Alkmaar, Lens seemed to have taken a stimulant. He created a huge threat to Alkmaar's defense through continuous passing and cutting in the frontcourt.

In the 5th minute, Lens took the ball and broke through David Mendes and Poconioli on the left side of the front court, and then passed the ball into the penalty area.

If it weren't for the teammate's running coordination one step later, Alkmaar's central defender Hector Moreno kicked out of the penalty area early to clear the siege, I am afraid that Nimegen has already won a good chance to shoot in the penalty area.

Even so, Lens' performance was praised by the fans at the scene. The home fans in Nimegen gave Lens huge applause and cheers, and some people kept shouting his name, as if he was Nimegen Like the King of Roots.

Obviously, Nijmegen fans are stimulating the nerves of everyone in Alkmaar.

Although Lance's performance was good, he was not yet treated like Jiang Xiaolin.

The only reason why Nimegen applauded Lens like this is that the opponent in this game is Alkmaar, Lens' old club.

The fans of Nijmegen hope that Lens will perform as well as possible, and it is best to score two goals to help them eliminate Alkmaar.

If Lens really scored in the final and helped Nijmegen eliminate Alkmaar, he would definitely offend Alkmaar fans to death and be hated by Alkmaar fans.

In addition, after eliminating Alkmaar, Nijmegen will qualify for the UEFA Cup next season, but Alkmaar does not.

In this way, it is possible for Lens to stay in Nijmegen and play European games with Nijmegen instead of returning to Alkmaar to be booed by fans.

This is why Lens can get the biggest applause and cheers from the home fans in this game.

Of course, Alkmaar's away fans also know the opponent's purpose, but many people just feel very uncomfortable.

"You didn't show much when you were in your home team, but you performed so well in another team on loan, and you are still working so hard against your home team. You are really a traitor."——This is not true The voice of Alkmaar fans.

Therefore, despite knowing the purpose of the opponent's fans, many Alkmaar fans booed Lens.

The boos from fans of his home team made Lens even more motivated.

"The more you boo me, the more I will perform well and slap you in the face." Lance thought without flinching.

Next, Lens performed even better.

In fact, Nimegen's overall strength may be stronger than Alkmaar's.

排名第7的阿尔克马尔是总比分5-2淘汰第10的罗达JC，而排名第9的尼美根也是以4-1的总比分淘汰比他们排名还高的第8名格罗宁根的。

The goal difference is three.

One is to eliminate a team ranked three places lower than oneself, and the other is to eliminate a team ranked higher than oneself. With the same goal difference, the gold content is still somewhat different.

And of the 5 goals Alkmaar scored in the two rounds, 4 were scored by Jiang Xiaolin.

Without Jiang Xiaolin, maybe Alkmaar would have been eliminated by Roda JC instead, let alone Roda JC by a big score.

Therefore, excluding Jiang Xiaolin's factor, Nijmegen's offensive strength in the frontcourt should really be stronger than Alkmaar's midfield and backcourt.

Coupled with the outstanding performance of Lens, everyone saw that Alkmaar was being beaten by Nimegen more than ten minutes after the start of the game, and he did not complete any decent counterattack at all.

In the 11th minute, Jiang Xiaolin had a chance to fight back against offside. Unfortunately, David Mendes' backcourt pass was too big. Jiang Xiaolin failed to catch up and was caught by Nimegen's Goalkeeper Babos rushed out of the penalty area with a header and headed back to the midfield.

Jiang Xiaolin didn't touch the counter-ball that time, so he did a useless effort.

On the contrary, Nimegen, relying on his strong frontcourt attack power, constantly threatened Alkmaar's goal.

In the 14th minute, Nimegen got a free kick in the frontcourt, and their No. 9 forward Hemu almost kicked the ball into the goal.

In the end, the ball was only slightly higher than the crossbar, which made Van Gaal on the sidelines take a breath.

The Nijmegen fans at home are even more excited to cheer for the team.

Finally, in the 19th minute, Nimegen took the lead to break the deadlock.

This time it was Lance's fault again.

After taking the ball from the wing, he first made a two-to-one cooperation with his teammates, passed the full-back Moussa Dembele, and then quickly dribbled the ball to break through the wing.

When meeting the full-back Poconioli, the young and energetic Lens actually made a fake move of riding a bicycle, and Poconioli, who was caught off guard, was actually shaken away by him.

After breaking through Poconioli with a fake action of stepping on a bicycle, Lens brought the ball about four or five meters away from the bottom line amidst the boos of the Alkmaar fans and the cheers of the Nijmegen fans, and then started Foot cross.

Unfortunately, the pass is not high enough and it is close to the penalty area. Goalkeeper Sergio Romero has already left the goal line and stood in the penalty area. There is a high probability that Romero will directly confiscate it, right? The first point was grabbed by the Nimegen player in the penalty area to form an attack.

When the players and fans of Nijmegen were a little disappointed, they saw that the Alkmaar central defender Ragnar Klavan did not see Romero's position behind him, and jumped up directly. Stretch out your right foot as hard as you can in the air, trying to intercept the ball or clear the baseline.

But Lens passed the ball too close to the small penalty area. Although Ragnar Krawan's clearance touched the ball, it did not hit the foot, but only touched his toe.
