God of Greenery

When the team owner, general manager, and Van Gaal stated their opinions respectively, and then asked about the prediction of Jiang Xiaolin's recovery from injury, both Horatio and Alfred's predictions were very optimistic.

As a team doctor, Horatio is very clear about Jiang Xiaolin's physique. He believes that Jiang Xiaolin's physical recovery ability is quite strong, and the possibility of returning to peak condition after surgery is not low, not as slim as the outside world said.

Alfred, a human behaviorist who specializes in Jiang Xiaolin, is even more optimistic.

According to Alfred, Jiang Xiaolin is the most perfect atavistic gene for human beings. In the harsh natural environment of primitive society, human self-healing ability is very critical.

In that primitive environment without doctors and medicines, people with poor self-healing ability after injury will die soon.

According to Jiang Xiaolin's various physical attributes and skill progress speed, Jiang Xiaolin's physical growth and immunity are top in the world.

Alfred even suspected that Jiang Xiaolin was the most physically fit human being in the world.

Under such circumstances, Alfred was even more optimistic about Jiang Xiaolin's recovery after surgery than Horatio, and firmly supported the club in renewing his contract with Jiang Xiaolin, taking a gamble.

As Van Gaal said, the cost of Alkmaar's gamble is not high.

But if the bet wins, Alkmaar will make a fortune.

It was under the persuasion of Van Gaal, team doctors Horatio, Alfred and others that the team owner and general manager changed their minds. Everyone agreed to take this opportunity to support Jiang Xiaolin, win Jiang Xiaolin and Hua Guo The favor of the fans, the successful renewal of Jiang Xiaolin's contract with lower conditions, is a bet on Jiang Xiaolin's physical recovery ability.

That's why there was a scene that shocked and moved the media and fans all over the world.

No matter what the purpose behind it is, anyway, what everyone sees is that the giant clubs of the five major leagues that had beaten Jiang Xiaolin badly and were bound to win have disappeared. Only Alkmaar expressed his thirst for talents and must cooperate with Jiang Xiaolin Kobayashi's determination and sincerity in renewing his contract won the favor and goodwill of all Huaguo fans.

That night, Jiang Xiaolin underwent an operation, and the top surgical experts from across the country conducted a consultation operation on Jiang Xiaolin.

The operation was very successful, and according to what the hospital told the media and fans at the press conference, the possibility of Jiang Xiaolin returning to his peak form is much higher than everyone expected.

The outside world was filled with joy, and countless people prayed that Jiang Xiaolin could return to his peak state.

In the evening, after the closing ceremony of the Beijing Olympic Games, Jiang Xiaolin woke up from the operation. The leaders of the Olympic team and the Chinese sports delegation all came to watch Jiang Xiaolin.

However, in view of Jiang Xiaolin's recent surgery, everyone just glanced through the door and did not enter the ward to talk to Jiang Xiaolin too much.

In the next few days, the whole country fell into the celebration of the Chinese delegation winning the first place in the gold medal list.

Among them, the gold medal of the Huaguo Men's Football National Olympic Team is undoubtedly the most exciting for fans and audiences across the country.

This is the first world championship in the history of Chinese football, which has profoundly changed the status and image of football in the eyes of ordinary people.

Of course, Jiang Xiaolin, the main contributor to the Olympic team's championship, was naturally the target of the media's vigorous publicity, and Jiang Xiaolin's injury attracted much attention.

It was also during this period that Argentine defender Garay, who fouled Jiang Xiaolin maliciously, was severely punished by FIFA and was banned for one year worldwide. He was not allowed to engage in any football-related activities or games within one year, not even friendly matches.

Garay can only train at home by himself and wait for a year before the ban is lifted before he can come back.Without competitions and professional training, no one can tell how much Garay can maintain after a year. Maybe it will plummet and ruin his career.

But ordinary fans don't understand this. They just feel that this punishment is too light, so they condemned FIFA on a large scale in the media and on the Internet.

However, it is impossible to change the decision that has been made. FIFA did not respond, and the Chinese Olympic Committee and the Football Committee did not continue to appeal.

They know how severe the punishment is.

In addition, Jiang Xiaolin was recovering well, and everyone's mentality was much more peaceful, so they didn't kill Gareth too much.

On August 8, after several days of communication and negotiation, broker Baker signed a contract extension with Alkmaar on behalf of Jiang Xiaolin.

The two parties agreed that the contract will be renewed for three years, and the liquidated damages will be 5000 million euros, which will greatly increase Jiang Xiaolin's annual salary and bonus.

Of course, due to Jiang Xiaolin's injury and the risk of not being able to return to his peak form, Jiang Xiaolin's annual salary and bonus are much lower than expected before the injury, but he still entered the first echelon of the club's first-team player salary.

Although Jiang Xiaolin may not be able to return to his peak, his achievements and his huge popularity in China can still provide him with a lot of confidence.

After the contract renewal was successful, the two sides held a press conference in Beiping to announce the news of the contract renewal. Alkmaar won unanimous praise from the Chinese media and fans.

At the same time, the hospital where Jiang Xiaolin was treated also announced Jiang Xiaolin's condition, claiming that Jiang Xiaolin's body self-recovery ability is amazing, and the possibility of returning to the peak state before the injury is getting higher and higher, and the time will not be too long.

This made the boss and general manager of Alkmaar very happy, and felt like they had picked up a bargain.

Afterwards, Jiang Xiaolin continued to undergo rehabilitation treatment under the care of the hospital expert team, and the Eredivisie kicked off the 2008/2009 new season.

In the first round of the match on August 8, Alkmaar lost 31-1 to Breda at home. The local fans couldn't help but miss the days when Jiang Xiaolin attacked the city in the second half of last season. .

Immediately after the first round of the match, enter the FIFA match day and start the national team competition.

The Chinese team will participate in the top ten Asian qualifiers for the World Cup in South Africa. The Chinese team is divided with Australia, Japan, Bahrain, and Uzbekistan.

Jiang Xiaolin, who is still undergoing rehabilitation in the hospital, is naturally not in the national team roster for this period.

On September 2008, 9, in the first round of the top ten match, Australia had a bye, Bahrain lost 6-2 to Japan, but the Hua Guo team without Jiang Xiaolin still defeated the FIFA ranking higher than the Hua Guo team 3-2 Uzbekistan team.

The main reason is that there are many players who have participated in the Olympics in this national team, such as Zheng Zhi, Li Weifeng, Hao Junmin and others.

Winning the Olympic Games has added too much confidence and game experience to these players.

What's more, the actual competitions against the world's top teams such as Belgium, Brazil, Italy, Nigeria, and Argentina in the Olympic Games have also improved their personal strength a lot.

Reflected in the national team's game, even without Jiang Xiaolin on the court, the level of everyone's performance is much better than when Jiang Xiaolin was not present in the top 20 games.

On September 9th, in the second round of the top ten match, Japan had a bye, Uzbekistan lost 10-0 to Australia, and the Hua Guo team, which played at home, performed mediocre in this game and was tied 1-1 by Bahrain.

After the first two rounds, the Huaguo team without Jiang Xiaolin still ranked first in Group A with 4 points.

This made the national media and fans very excited.

It seems that the Olympic team's victory in the Olympic Games has indeed had a good effect on Chinese football.

After the end of the FIFA match day, the league reignited.

On September 9, Alkmaar played away against The Hague.

After 90 minutes, the score on the field was 3-0. Alkmaar was defeated by Den Haag with three goals in the away game, and lost all face.

After the two-game losing streak, Alkmaar's coaches, players and fans missed Jiang Xiaolin even more.

Fortunately, the news from Peking is getting more and more exciting.

In just 20 days after the operation, Jiang Xiaolin was able to walk on the ground without crutches.

After the hospital's examination, Jiang Xiaolin's calf recovered several times faster than ordinary people.

According to the current trend, Jiang Xiaolin's chances of returning to his pre-injury peak state are more than half, and it won't be too long.

This made countless Alkmaar and Huaguo fans very excited and full of expectations.

On the evening of September 9th, Alkmaar ushered in the team's first European game of the season. In the first round of the third round of the 17/2008 UEFA Cup qualifying round, Alkmaar played against Dynamo Bucharest from Romania at home.

Alkmaar played directly from the third round of the qualifying round this season. As long as they beat Dynamo Bucharest in two rounds, they will advance to the UEFA Cup group stage.

After 90 minutes, the score on the field was 1-0. Alkmaar beat Dynamo Bucharest with a goal at home, which was considered a match.

However, after two consecutive defeats at the beginning of the league, the victory in this European game still injected a certain amount of positive energy into the team.

On September 9, Alkmaar played against the giants Eindhoven at home.

After meeting such a wealthy team after two consecutive league losses, everyone thought that Alkmaar was about to usher in a three-game losing streak.

Unexpectedly, in this game, Alkmaar finally defeated Eindhoven 1-0, ushering in the team's first victory of the season.

Winning the first game of the European War, as well as the factors of playing at home, may indeed make the team more likely to exert its strength.

On September 9, Alkmaar ushered in the first round of the Dutch Cup of the 23/2008 season. The team's opponent was Hercules, who is also in the Eredivisie, and Alkmaar played at home.

After 90 minutes, the score was 3-0, and Alkmaar beat their opponents to advance to the second round.

With the strong momentum of three consecutive victories in the European War, League, and Cup, on September 9, Alkmaar played against Willem II in an away game. They even beat their opponent with a score of 27-5 in the away game, which caused a sensation in Dutch football.

The state of the Alkmaar team is recovering.

On October 10, in the third round of the UEFA Cup qualifying round, Alkmaar played away against Dynamo Bucharest. Jiang Xiaolin watched the live TV broadcast.

This match made Jiang Xiaolin very nervous.

Because if the team cannot defeat Dynamo Bucharest and enter the group stage, he will not be able to participate in the UEFA Cup this year and will not be able to complete the task of the small triple crown.

Fortunately, Alkmaar stumbled and drew 0-0 with Dynamo Bucharest in the away game, and advanced to the UEFA Cup with a total score of 1-0.

On the second day, UEFA held the draw ceremony for the UEFA Cup group stage. Alkmaar was assigned to Group D. The same group included Udinese, Tottenham Hotspur, Sparta Moscow, Sagler Budinamo.

The UEFA Cup competition system in the 2008/2009 season is different from the subsequent Europa League competition system. There are 40 teams in the group stage, divided into 8 groups, 5 teams in each group, and only a single round-robin game is played instead of a double-loop game. .

A total of 24 teams in the top three of the group stage plus the 8 UEFA Champions League group stage No. 3 eliminated, a total of 32 teams entered the knockout stage.

Although there are three qualifying places in the group stage, the strength of Group D is not weak, especially Udinese and Tottenham Hotspur, from Serie A and Premier League respectively, are strong.

Spartak Moscow is also a strong team in Russia. It is not easy for Alkmaar to advance to the knockout round.

Fortunately, Jiang Xiaolin is recovering well, and the day of his comeback is getting closer and closer.

10月5日，荷甲第5轮，阿尔克马尔竟然在主场6-0血洗鹿特丹斯巴达。

Even though Jiang Xiaolin hasn't returned yet, Van Gaal's team is getting better.

Next, the league was suspended and entered the FIFA match day.

On October 10th, in the third round of the top ten match, the national football team played away against Australia. After all, due to the large gap in strength, they lost 15-0 to Australia in the away game.

In another game, Japan, who played at home, was tied 1-1 by Uzbekistan, which had lost two consecutive games, and Bahrain had a bye.

After the third round, Australia rose to the top of the standings with 6 points, while Japan and Hua Guo ranked second and third with 4 points. The Hua Guo team was overwhelmed by Japan due to a goal difference disadvantage.

The FIFA match day is over and back to the league. On October 10, in the sixth round of the Eredivisie, Alkmaar defeated Graf Sharp 19-6 in an away game.

After this round of the league, Alkmaar has risen to the third place in the standings, which made Alkmaar fans who had two consecutive losses in the first two rounds very excited.

Three days later, on October 10, a piece of news that made Alkmaar fans even more excited came: Two months after the injury, Jiang Xiaolin had fully recovered from his injury and was discharged from the hospital after undergoing surgery and rehabilitation by top Chinese orthopedic experts.

The news spread all over the world immediately, not only the fans of Alkmaar, but also the fans of Huaguo, and fans of many other countries expressed their heartfelt wishes.

No one wants a 17-year-old hopeful star to have his career interrupted after just participating in one Olympic Games. This is a loss for the whole world.
