God of Greenery

Jiang Xiaolin's free kick scored twice did cause great trouble to Lake Pusner's players.

Jiang Xiaolin's skills are already good, with full dribbling, full-value fried meatballs, picking the ball, passing people through the crotch, etc., as well as strong physique, speed, off-the-ball movement, etc.

To sum up, Jiang Xiaolin's dribble success rate is not worse than that of ordinary midfielders even though Jiang Xiaolin is a bit monotonous because of his lack of dribble skills.

The point is, it is very difficult for Jiang Xiaolin to lose the ball.

The full-value dribbling skills allow him to control the ball and pass it out to pose a threat even if he can't pass people.

Therefore, when there is no other way, the opponent will use tactical fouls against him to destroy Jiang Xiaolin's ball, even if he is given a free kick, there is no way.

But now Jiang Xiaolin can score two free kicks in one game, which is terrifying.

If Jiang Xiaolin is easily given a free kick again, who knows if he will score another free kick and perform a hat-trick of free kicks?

Isn't this delivering food to Jiang Xiaolin again!
Therefore, in the next game, Lake Pusner's players were much more cautious in defense and did not dare to foul easily.

But this made Jiang Xiaolin's breakthrough and progress much easier.

In the 73rd minute, Jiang Xiaolin swayed an angle at the front of the penalty area to get a chance to shoot. A powerful long-range shot from outside the penalty area almost pierced Lake Pusner's goal again.

If it weren't for goalkeeper Lukowski's wonderful save, Jiang Xiaolin would have staged his fourth big in the UEFA Cup.

It's a pity.

The subsequent corner kick Jiang Xiaolin also failed to grab the first point, the penalty was a little too close to the goalkeeper, and was picked off by the goalkeeper.

In the final stage of the game, although Jiang Xiaolin repeatedly made threats, he seemed to be almost lucky and failed to score the fourth goal.

补时3分钟后，主裁判吹响了全场比赛结束的哨声，阿尔克马尔凭借江小林的帽子戏法在联盟杯1/16决赛第二回合的比赛中主场3-0击败莱克普斯纳，以两回合7-2的总比分淘汰这支来自波兰联赛的球队，昂首挺进2008/2009赛季的联盟杯16强。

After the referee blew the final whistle, Jiang Xiaolin got the basic experience of 3 for 6 goals + 4 for winning = 10.

In terms of game performance, Jiang Xiaolin received an "excellent" system rating with a rating factor of 3 for his hat-trick performance.

江小林最后获得的总经验就是10万*3=30万，加上前两天的日常训练，江小林的等级经验就上升到了22级167.84/300万。

Finally, it is more than half of the experience of level 22.

After passing level 20, it is extremely difficult to upgrade. Jiang Xiaolin yearns for the five major leagues, the Champions League, the World Cup and other high-level competitions.

He has already decided that he must help Alkmaar win the minor triple crown this season, and then transfer away immediately in the summer.

In this process, even if some attribute points are used to add team aura, it doesn't matter.

After the game, the news that Jiang Xiaolin scored a hat-trick, scored twice from a free kick, and scored 12 goals in the UEFA Cup was widely reported by media from all over the world.

Such a performance, even if it is only the UEFA Cup, is enough to shock the world.

Although the UEFA Cup is one level lower than the UEFA Champions League, it is still a European competition.

To be able to perform a hat-trick and score two free kicks in such a game, and the total number of goals reached 12, is still enough to make the media and fans all over the world discuss.

Jiang Xiaolin continued to refresh the world's understanding of him.

On the second day, after the UEFA Cup 1/16 finals were all over, all the top 16 teams of this season were produced, and UEFA immediately drew lots for the quarter-finals.

Alkmaar was unlucky and drew Zenit St. Petersburg from Russia.

This is the defending champion.

Last season, Zenit St. Petersburg defeated Glasgow Rangers 2-0 in the UEFA Cup final and won the UEFA Cup in the 2007/2008 season. This shows the strength of Zenit St. Petersburg.

This can be called a roadblock.

If Alkmaar is interested in the UEFA Cup this season, the defending champion is a tough opponent that must be overcome.

Moreover, the schedule is not very favorable for Alkmaar.

They have to play home games first, then away games.

If you can't win at home and take the initiative, it may be a bit difficult to go to Russia in an away game.

Although it was already late March when the away game came, the weather in Russia, even in March, was still very cold.

Whether Alkmaar can retreat in the away game is not sure at all.

The first round of the quarter-finals between the two sides will be on March 3.

There are still more than ten days, and Alkmaar must prepare well.

Now Alkmaar is fighting on the third front, and the time is very tight. Therefore, after the second round of the UEFA Cup knockout match with Lekpusner, Alkmaar did not take a holiday. Instead, he started daily training and prepared for the next game.

It's just that the intensity of training on the second day after the game was reduced a little.

2009年2月28日，2月份的最后一天，阿尔克马尔迎来了与格罗宁根的荷甲第25轮联赛。

What's good for Alkmaar is that this game is still a home game, and the players don't have to travel long distances and travel away.

Moreover, the next Dutch Cup match will still be played at Alkmaar's home court.

However, the next Dutch Cup match is only 5 days away, and the time is still very tight.

Therefore, in this Eredivisie match with Groningen, after much consideration, Van Gaal still rotated a few positions.

Because Alkmaar still has an 11-point lead in the Eredivisie, there is room for error in at least 3 games.

But the Holland Cup is a game that determines the outcome, and there is no room for mistakes.If you fail, you will be eliminated from the competition.

Therefore, after thinking about it again and again, Van Gaal still carried out a rotation in this league game against Groningen, retaining a certain amount of main force to cope with the next Dutch Cup game.

However, Jiang Xiaolin is still the main force who cannot be beaten.

As long as Jiang Xiaolin is there, even if Alkmaar rotates a few main players, there is still the possibility of defeating the opponent.

当天晚上20:45，在AFAS球场全场1万多主场球迷的欢呼声中，随着主裁判的一声哨响，阿尔克马尔主场迎战格罗宁根的2008/2009赛季荷甲第25轮联赛正式开始。

Groningen currently ranks sixth in the standings, and their strength is not weak.

But just as Van Gaal guessed before the game, in a game with Jiang Xiaolin, no opponent would dare to attack easily, let alone an away game.

Even if Alkmaar has carried out a certain degree of rotation, Groningen did not dare to fight against Alkmaar at the AFAS Stadium.

The two sides can only conduct offensive and defensive positional battles with each other. If something goes wrong, all members will immediately return to defense, and it is almost difficult to launch a quick counterattack.

Under such circumstances, it is time to test the ability of both sides to attack.

Playing positional battles obviously tests both players' passing and running coordination, shooting skills, and the most important long-range shooting and set-piece abilities.

In this regard, if Jiang Xiaolin was not present, perhaps Alkmaar would not have taken the lead in an all-round way, and might not be able to convert opportunities into goals.

But with Jiang Xiaolin present, with Jiang Xiaolin's ability to set the ball, compete for the top, long-range shots, passing and receiving skills, etc., Alkmaar can almost take the lead in the tough battle.

In the 17th minute, Jiang Xiaolin received a pass from his teammate with his back to the goal in the penalty area, and then made a tactical center forward transfer, accurately passing the ball back to the penalty area line.

The midfielder David Mendes, who was inserted in the back row, shot angrily after winning the ball. The ball was heavy and almost hit the goal, but was barely saved by the goalkeeper Dashua.

However, not long after escaping this time, in the 25th minute, Jiang Xiaolin received the ball from outside the penalty area and sent a threatening kick.

The full-back Elm entered the penalty area and prepared to shoot directly without stopping the ball, but was shoveled down in the penalty area by the Groningen defender Glenwest in desperation.

Elm's shot was naturally gone, but Granvis' shovel fouled.

The referee made a decisive decision and showed Granwest a yellow card and awarded Alkmaar a penalty.

The players in Groningen were naturally very dissatisfied, and tried to explain to the referee, thinking that it was Elm who flopped and cheated, but no one could shake the referee's determination, and even the last player who was eager to defend received another yellow card. Let them calm down, and reluctantly accepted the consequences of Alkmaar getting a penalty.

The penalty kick was naturally taken by Jiang Xiaolin. He has never missed a penalty kick so far.

There is no doubt that Jiang Xiaolin achieved it overnight and kicked the penalty into the dead corner.

Jiang Xiaolin scored the first goal, raising his scoring record in a single season to 45 goals, and also gave Alkmaar a 1-0 lead.

The next game will be much easier.

For Alkmaar, as long as they win and lead now, they will enter their familiar rhythm.

Because Jiang Xiaolin's threat of counterattack was too great.

But the opponent has nothing to do.

In the case of already falling behind, Groningen can no longer hold on.Even if you stick to it, you will still lose in the end.

Therefore, they can only attack out and try to score goals.

However, Groningen also knew about Jiang Xiaolin's threat.

If you are only one goal behind, you may still have a chance to equalize.But if you are two goals behind, I am afraid there will be no chance at all.

Therefore, even if they attacked, they attacked very carefully, they did not go out with all their strength, and they did not relax their guard against Jiang Xiaolin.

Although this situation allowed them to prevent Jiang Xiaolin's counterattack and did not concede the ball again, but the attack was too weak, but it also prevented them from scoring goals.

Groningen's only threatening attack in the first half was a top attack in the middle after a bottom pass from the wing.

Although the attack was within the range of the goal frame, it was finally saved by Sergio Romero.

This was Groningen's only threatening shot that hit the goal frame in the first half.

At other times, even if they attack, they are too small to enter Alkmaar's penalty area and pose a threat.

Even if there are shots, most of them fail to hit the goal frame due to poor shooting skills, let alone pose a threat.

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

The game in the second half was similar to the first half, but because time was running out, Groningen, who was only one goal behind, still wanted to equalize the score.

Therefore, sometimes the players in the backcourt will unconsciously want to press forward to participate in the offense and provide support to the frontcourt players.

As a result, in the 61st minute, Groningen's full-back Frederick, who assisted with the ball, was intercepted and counterattacked. When Jiang Xiaolin followed up in the middle and was pulled by the opponent's central defender and couldn't complete the header, he made a header ferry and sent the ball to the feet of Van der Velden who was inserted in the back row.

Van der Velden rushed in from behind, met Jiang Xiaolin's header and volleyed the ball into the Groningen goal.

Jiang Xiaolin assisted his teammate and scored the second goal of the game. Alkmaar led Groningen 2-0 and basically sealed the victory.

In order to save strength for the next Dutch Cup, Van Gaal started to make substitutions, replacing two main players, but still left Jiang Xiaolin on the field.

Now that everyone knows Jiang Xiaolin*'s physical fitness, even a double match in a week cannot defeat him, so Van Gaal is naturally willing to keep Jiang Xiaolin on the field and continue to suppress the opponent's defense.

As long as Jiang Xiaolin stays on the court, the opponent will not be able to counterattack with all his strength, and will not be able to regain the disadvantage of being two goals behind.

If they wanted to attack aggressively to equalize the score, then Jiang Xiaolin's counterattack would let them know that such a counterattack was asking for their own death.

Perhaps Groningen resigned.

After falling behind by two goals, not only did they not make a big counterattack, but they shrunk their defensive line and defended well, even seldom counterattacking.

Later, the head coach of Groningen even took the initiative to replace two offensive players and put on two defensive players to continue to strengthen the defense.

This is a game that has been given up early.

Seeing this, Van Gaal felt relieved and replaced Jiang Xiaolin in the 76th minute, allowing him to enjoy the applause of the fans alone again.

Because, although Jiang Xiaolin only scored one goal in this game, his goal was still setting a new record, raising his single-season scoring record to 45 goals.

Starting today, every goal Jiang Xiaolin scores in the Eredivisie League this season will set a new record, which naturally deserves the applause of all fans and media coverage.

After Jiang Xiaolin left the field, the game between the two sides was uneventful.

After 3 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game. With Jiang Xiaolin's one pass and one shot, Alkmaar beat Groningen 2-0 at home, continued to lead the standings, and maintained several games room for error.

江小林在比赛结束后收到了1个助攻1000+进球2000+赢球4000=7000的基础经验。

In terms of performance, Jiang Xiaolin only received a "good" system rating with a rating coefficient of 2.

于是，江小林最后获得的总经验就是7000*2=1.4万。加上日常训练，他的等级经验上升到了22级169.32/300万。
