God of Greenery

Of course, the Udinese players also knew that Jiang Xiaolin's free kick was very powerful, so under the command of goalkeeper Berardi, they formed a wall of 6 people.

Because the distance is too far, 6 people are enough to block all of Jiang Xiaolin's straight shooting routes, no matter the near corner or the far corner.

Jiang Xiaolin couldn't shoot if he didn't hit an arc.

Then, goalkeeper Berardi stood in the middle of the goal line, waiting for Jiang Xiaolin's shot.

After Udinese's wall was lined up and the referee blew the whistle for free throws, Jiang Xiaolin took a deep breath, let it out again, and started to run.

Under the expectant eyes of countless fans and fans at the scene and in front of the TV, Jiang Xiaolin kicked the middle and lower part of the ball with all his strength.

No one expected that Jiang Xiaolin inadvertently hit another free kick with a speed of over 100 km/h.

The ball was shot into the air instantly by Jiang Xiaolin's exhausted shot, and flew over the right side of the wall with a "swish". The Udinese players in the wall only felt an afterimage of the ball passing by. Then it disappeared in an instant.

So does goalkeeper Berardi.

He originally thought that the distance of more than 30 meters was far enough. No matter which side Jiang Xiaolin hit, it was enough for him to react and make a timely save.

However, he did not expect that Jiang Xiaolin's free kick shot was so powerful and fast.

Although Berardi judged the path of the ball and rushed to the near end the moment he saw the ball cross the goal line, it was still too late.

When he just took off, he was desperate to see that the ball had already crossed an arc and flew into the near goal with a sound of "swish" against the post.

Berardi's palm is still far away from the ball, and it is simply out of reach.

By the time his hand reached the flight path of the ball, the ball had already flown into the goal and hit the net and fell.

Berardi's save came too late.

The ball flew into the goal before Berardi's palm was in place.

With a bang, the entire AFAS stadium erupted, and the fans applauded and screamed excitedly, celebrating Jiang Xiaolin's goal.

Alkmaar TV commentator Van Klens in the commentary booth also shouted excitedly the moment the ball flew into the goal:

"Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

"The ball is in!"

"Jiang Xiaolin's free kick scored!"

"Despite the save by the Udinese goalkeeper, Jiang Xiaolin's free kick flew into the goal!"

"1-0, Jiang Xiaolin opened the scoring and gave Alkmaar a 1-0 lead."

"This free kick is so fast, it almost flew into the goal with a 'swish'!"

"I have a hunch that the speed of this ball may exceed 100 kilometers per hour. Let us wait for the technical department to measure it, and then broadcast the speed data of this ball to everyone later."

The commentators’ explanations are broadcast to the audience watching the TV station in front of the TV. In fact, there are also live announcers in the stadium, who are responsible for broadcasting the coaches of both sides, the starting list, the substitute list, substitution information, and goal information to the audience. , stoppage time, etc.

When the away team scores a goal, the on-site announcer is business-like, plainly reading the name of the scorer.

And once a home team player scores a goal, the announcer will speak passionately, mobilizing the audience to send screams and cheers to the home team goal scorer.

Jiang Xiaolin's goal this time is no exception.

He's the most popular player on the AFAS field right now.

Donimike, the stadium announcer who was a guest host at the Golden Boy Awards ceremony and interviewed Jiang Xiaolin, shouted loudly into the microphone in the studio:

"Alkmaar scored in the 26th minute!"

"The one who scored the goal was..."

When he said this, Donimike stopped.

Because, his voice has been transmitted to the ears of every home fan in the stands through the live broadcast.

After Donimike shouted "The goal is...", more than 17000 fans of the home team shouted in unison with the loudest voice: "Jiang Xiaolin!"

Then, Donimick continued to shout: "The goal is..."

The fans then shouted: "Jiang Xiaolin!"

"The one who scored the goal was..."

"Jiang Xiaolin!"

The fans shouted Jiang Xiaolin's name in unison three times in a row, which made Jiang Liantao and Jiang Xueling who came to the scene in Alkmaar feel excited.

In the past, they also watched domestic Olympic football games, but because of the more reserved reasons of the Hua people, it was difficult to prevent the phenomenon of fans shouting a player's name unanimously like in Europe.

Although I have heard fans chanting Jiang Xiaolin's name at the Olympic Games, but they are not as consistent and vigorous as the Alkmaar fans at the AFAS stadium today.

Therefore, this game gave Jiang Liantao and Jiang Xueling different feelings.

The more passionate and unrestrained emotional release of European fans made Jiang Liantao more clearly feel the popularity of his son in Alkmaar.

On the court, Jiang Xiaolin also celebrated warmly with his teammates, and then continued the game.

After the game restarted, Udinese didn't seem to be affected by Jiang Xiaolin's goal, and they still played their defensive counterattack step by step, and did not rush to attack because the score was behind, trying to score an equalizer.

The main reason is that winning or losing this game has no effect on Udinese's group qualification, so falling behind will not make them too anxious.

The same is true for Alkmaar, winning or losing will not affect their qualifying. After taking the lead in the home game, the players relaxed and stopped fighting too aggressively.

Because it is not necessary.

You know, just three days later, Alkmaar will usher in another league game, against the Eredivisie team Utrecht!
Therefore, everyone still needs to save some energy, and this irrelevant game does not need to be too hard.

However, Jiang Xiaolin was different, he was still actively fighting and attacking.

But his teammates were not strong enough, and Udinese's chain defense did a good job. Jiang Xiaolin didn't get any good shooting opportunities in the rest of the first half.

In the 37th minute, Jiang Xiaolin once scored the first header in a corner attack, but unfortunately, under the interference of the opponent's defender, he headed slightly higher than the crossbar and failed to score.

After 1 minute of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.

After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Similar to the situation in the second half of the first half, Alkmaar and Udinese played a non-high-intensity game. Only Jiang Xiaolin and a few substitute starters from both sides were actively fighting for goals. .

These substitute starters are earning performance for themselves, and have nothing to do with the team's winning or losing, or qualifying.

It was also because of the fact that his team had a few active substitute starting teammates, Jiang Xiaolin was not completely trapped in the situation of fighting alone, and occasionally he was able to cooperate with his teammates.

In the 53rd minute, Jiang Xiaolin occupied the position with his back to the goal in the penalty area and grabbed the first spot. He ferried the long pass header from the wing teammate to the substitute midfielder van der Weil who was inserted in the back row on the line of the penalty area. ascend.

Van der Velden didn't dare to stop the ball under the threat of Udinese's defenders. He volleyed directly with a good quality and hit the goal frame.

It's a pity that Udinese's goalkeeper Berardi played well this time and saved Van der Velden's shot.

Until the 68th minute, there was an exciting scene on the court.

Originally, this was just an ordinary positional attack after Udinese took control of the ball, and even Jiang Xiaolin retreated outside the penalty area to participate in the defense.

But unexpectedly, Jiang Xiaolin's full positioning skills had an effect at a critical moment.

Maybe it’s because Jiang Xiaolin didn’t expect Jiang Xiaolin’s position selection to be so rogue, or maybe it’s because of his poor passing skills. Anyway, the Udinese player who was holding the ball made a pass error under the pressure of the Alkmaar player, and Jiang Xiaolin was caught in the penalty area. Sudden outside steals the ball successfully.

After grabbing the ball, there appeared in front of Jiang Xiaolin the Udinese player Gaetano who was about to catch the ball, but was one step too late.

Facing Gaetano's steal, Jiang Xiaolin used his full-value croquettes to pass Gaetano in an instant, and then dribbled the ball towards Udinese's half-court.

Because Jiang Xiaolin steals the ball too close to his own penalty area, Udinese has a lot of defensive players near the midfield.

In addition, they themselves play defensive counterattacks, attach great importance to defense, do not press hard, and maintain a relatively complete defensive formation.

When Jiang Xiaolin stole the ball and passed Gaetano in an instant, five Udinese players returned to defend in all directions.

Even if Jiang Xiaolin is head-on, there are three defenders who can stop him.

But Jiang Xiaolin had no choice but to dribble the ball over by himself. Because the game was not critical, the other teammates returned to their own penalty area to help defend. Jiang Xiaolin had no teammates in front of him or on the parallel line.

In order to ensure the speed and suddenness of the counterattack, Jiang Xiaolin didn't stop to wait for his teammates to respond, and forced a breakthrough with the ball himself.

After passing Gaetano, Jiang Xiaolin dribbled the ball forward for more than ten meters, and then approached the center line.

At this time, Obodo, the Udinese midfielder closest to him, slowed down his defense and tried to stop Jiang Xiaolin.

But Jiang Xiaolin didn't slow down, he just moved the ball to the side, and then accelerated and rushed past Obodo.

Jiang Xiaolin beat Obodo with speed.

Obodo's face changed, and he stretched out his hand to make a tactical foul, and directly pulled Jiang Xiaolin down, but Jiang Xiaolin forcibly broke free.

Jiang Xiaolin's strong physique and perfect balance allowed him to break through Obodo with speed, and prevented Obodo's tactical fouls from being effective.

Jiang Xiaolin passed the center line with the ball, and Obodo could only catch up behind, but he couldn't get close.

Even if Jiang Xiaolin ran with the ball and Obodo ran without the ball, they failed to close the distance between the two.

Jiang Xiaolin had already broken through Gaetano and Obodo, and there were only two central defenders standing in front of him.

Although there is still a full-back on the left who is quickly returning to the defense, but because he has to defend another striker Ali's support, he cannot run over to help defend. Therefore, the obstacles on Jiang Xiaolin's way forward are the two central defenders.

The two of them were very close together, like a moving wall formed by the two of them, and they stepped back sideways while observing Jiang Xiaolin's running position, trying to stop Jiang Xiaolin with two people, so as to avoid being attacked by Jiang Xiaolin one by one.

Because the two of them turned their bodies sideways while returning to defense while getting stuck, their speed was slower than that of Jiang Xiaolin who was advancing at full speed with the ball.

Jiang Xiaolin used his full-value dribbling skills to control the ball under his feet. When he was about ten meters away from the penalty area, he caught up with the two central defenders. The distance between the two sides seemed to be three or four meters away.

Both central defenders tensed up.

Because Jiang Xiaolin had to make a breakthrough at this time, otherwise if he slowed down, he might be posted by Obodo who was desperately chasing behind him, forming a three-person defense situation, and Jiang Xiaolin might lose the ball .

Jiang Xiaolin naturally knew this too. If he didn't quickly break through the two central defenders in front of him, once he slowed down, he would be overtaken by Obodo behind him.

In the case of three people defending, no matter how good Jiang Xiaolin's skills are, he will lose the ball with a high probability.

Therefore, in the process of approaching the two central defenders, Jiang Xiaolin used his full-scale dribbling skills to constantly shake left and right and change directions.

Although he didn't step on a bicycle, the sideways swaying of his body was still somewhat confusing, forcing the two central defenders to frequently move their positions in order to block Jiang Xiaolin's breakthrough direction.

Therefore, in such a process, it is inevitable that there will occasionally be a gap between the two that is sufficient for the ball to pass through.

Being a human being is definitely not going to make it through. The purpose of the two is to prevent Jiang Xiaolin from breaking through.

Naturally, Jiang Xiaolin didn't want to break through with the ball. His goal was to pass the ball.

While advancing while dribbling the ball, when Jiang Xiaolin once again found that the distance between the two was slightly larger, Jiang Xiaolin suddenly stabbed the ball precisely between the two.

Then Jiang Xiaolin made a detour from the wing, and he made the movement of passing the ball.

The two central defenders are naturally prepared for this.

The two separated quickly, and the one near the middle immediately chased the ball that Jiang Xiaolin had thrown at full speed.Those who were close to the side immediately stretched out their hands to block Jiang Xiaolin, trying to slow down Jiang Xiaolin's sprint speed and destroy the other's intention to pass the ball.

But just like Obodo just now, Jiang Xiaolin played very well this time.

Moreover, the circle he circled was a little too big.

Although the central defender on the side stretched out his hand to touch Jiang Xiaolin, he couldn't grasp it firmly, allowing Jiang Xiaolin to use a faster speed to go around him.

When Jiang Xiaolin maximized his speed, no one in football could compete with him, not even professional sprinters.

Therefore, even though the ball was diverted a little bit, Jiang Xiaolin still managed to bypass the central defender on the side, and caught up with the ball he just poked past at full speed, grabbing the ball before the central defender on the inside The control rushed towards the penalty area under his feet.
