Chapter 279 The Dutch Golden Generation

The Dutch team was very frustrated, but the Dutch fans and players were not like Van Gaal, who had a bitter face and could not accept such an ending.

Whether it is Robben or Heitinga, or goalkeeper Stekelen Borg.After the referee's whistle sounded, they all let out a long sigh of relief, and the secret channel finally ended the damn game.

In the last 10 minutes of the game, although the National Youth Team had given up their offense, the whole team was on the defensive, allowing the Dutch team to give it a go.But the Dutch players know that this is not their last chance.It is not an exaggeration to say that my "senior" gave me a chance to perform.

Under the leadership of Bai Xiaotian, the national youth retreated across the board, from the midfield to the goal, a total of four layers of defense were established for the Dutch team.

The players of the Dutch team fought for every inch of ground and pushed forward with difficulty.

Although Bai Xiaotian's defensive ability is not very outstanding, under his command, Guoqing played steadily and without tension.

The most important point is that the National Youth defender did not hesitate to make a clearance, which discouraged the Dutch midfielders.

The national youth players all know that as long as they defend well, the team will definitely advance.And taking a step back, even if the Dutch team equalizes, they can still break through the Dutch team's gate again with their own cutting-edge offense.This kind of self-confidence is not something ordinary people can give.

In just half a year, Bai Xiaotian has grown from a substitute kid to the core of the team, the pillar of the team.The eyeballs in the stands and Shen Xiangfu on the sidelines were all lamenting the greatness of studying abroad.

These 10 minutes are the best training time for the national youth defenders, and it is also the last time for the Dutch teenagers to show themselves.

After the players from both sides formed a tacit understanding, they began the offensive and defensive drills of the national youth team.

Every team member tried their best to show themselves, even if they were injured and fell to the ground, they would get up immediately. There was never any intentional waste of time.

Van Gaal obviously also discovered this, so he decisively replaced a new player and went to the field to show himself.

In the end, the Dutch team still did not tear through the national youth defense.The defense of the National Youth League has also been sublimated after this game.

After the whistle sounded for the end of the game, Zhang Yaokun immediately threw himself into Dewey's arms, and was as happy as a child under the watch of nearly [-] fans.Indeed, it is the first time in history that the National Youth League reached the semi-finals.

National Youth defenders gathered in twos and exchanged defensive experiences.The Dutch players ran to Bai Xiaotian immediately and asked to exchange jerseys.

From a standpoint, except for a few youth players from Eindhoven, the rest of the players have an antagonistic relationship with Bai Xiaotian.

But when Bai Xiaotian helped PSV win the Europa League, the taste changed.

Dutch football is going downhill. Although there are still many talented players, in the eyes of insiders, it is nothing more than a flashback.

At this time, Bai Xiaotian helped the entire Eredivisie league to return to the European stage, allowing more people to see Dutch football. From this point of view, Bai Xiaotian is very popular among Dutch young people.

What a young guy who is not Dutch can do, what can't our native Dutch players do?Colin and Huntelaar immediately stood behind Bai Xiaotian, eager for an autograph.

Colin didn't have much impression yet, but Huntelaar, the big Bai Xiaotian, still had a deep impression.

In the training match of the winter training camp, Huntelaar wanted to earn the first place in the Eindhoven youth training camp with Paulinho.But Huntelaar realized half a year later that it was simply too naive.

Young people with real ideals should help the team stand at the top of Europe. What's the point of making small troubles in youth training camps and practice games?
Since then, Huntelaar has been training harder. In Holland, Huntelaar firmly occupies the top of the scorer list with more than 50 goals.

According to the high-level decision of Eindhoven, Huntelaar will be dropped to the second team of Eindhoven in the second half of the year.At this time, it is not impossible to build a good relationship with Bai Xiaotian and directly promote Huntelaar to the first team.

After Bai Xiaotian agreed to the request of the two, he took the initiative to come to another Dutch teenager.

"We meet again! Good kick!" Bai Xiaotian stretched out his hand.

"You are very different from half a year ago!" Although Robben was very young, after unloading all the burdens, he felt comfortable at this time.

"Are you interested in coming to Eindhoven?" Bai Xiaotian offered an olive branch while handing over his jersey.

"Uh, what about this?" Robben scratched his thick blond hair, hesitantly.

From the heart, of course he wants to go to the Eredivisie giants Eindhoven to develop.

But he knew that with his current self, he would definitely be a substitute for Bai Xiaotian or Kezhiman after arriving in Eindhoven.

It's not that he is unwilling to play as a substitute, but that he feels that his strength, achievements and performance are not enough.There is no way, no matter how good Robben is, he still feels short in front of Bai Xiaotian.Especially the inward cut that he is proud of was practiced in front of Bai Xiaotian's game video.

Speaking of which, compared to other players on the team, Robben, who played as the main player in Groningen, is already much better than them.

"Well, I'll play in Groningen for another year. And the coach also values ​​me, and the teammates cooperate well."

"It's okay, show yourself well. Even if you don't come this year, it's not too late to come next year. Anyway, with your talent, it will be sooner or later to become famous in the world." Bai Xiaotian didn't care about Robben's rejection. Anyway, Robben is still in the cultivation stage, so it's not a big deal to let him stay in Xinshou Village for another year.

At the age when he should be able to participate in the World Junior Championships, he followed a group of big brothers to participate in the World Youth Championships.If Van Nistelrooy regarded Bai Xiaotian as his successor, then Bai Xiaotian thought Robben was a good candidate.

"Huh? Really? Thank you!" The immature boy put his hands behind his head in embarrassment when he heard Bai Xiaotian flattering himself so much.

Argentina has just entered winter, when the cold wind blows, Bai Xiaotian clearly sees a golden hair, leaving the homeland where it was born and raised, and goes with the wind.

Bai Xiaotian knew that it would not be long before this place would become a barren desert.

"Goodbye kid, thank you for being merciful!" Stekelenberg took off his gloves and stretched out his hand to Bai Xiaotian.

Bai Xiaotian was shirtless, and stretched out his hands to hold each other. "I believe that one day you will surpass Van der Sar and become the sole goalkeeper."

"Thank you, thank you!" The lanky Dutch goalkeeper blushed immediately and kept thanking him.

Thin and tall, also produced by the Ajax youth training.Stekelenburg heard the most words in his career: "Look, how much does that kid look like Van der Sar? If you practice it, it might be another Van der Sar!"

"That's right, he is simply Van der Sar II!"

Such comments made Stekelenburg a little complacent in the early stage, thinking that it was an affirmation of his own strength.

But as I grew older and time passed, such words gradually became a kind of irony, firmly planted in Stekelenburg's heart.

What is "Van der Sar" II?Does it mean that I will never be able to surpass him in my life?
Van der Sar is an upright man in his prime and is an indispensable first national goal for the Dutch team.If Stekelenburg has always been living under the "shadow" of Van der Sar, it will definitely be a big shackle for his future development, and maybe Van der Sar will become his nightmare.

So what Stekelenburg wants and likes to hear the most is not that others say that he is like Van der Sar, but that he will one day become an independent individual.

In the end, Bai Xiaotian came to van der Vaart, the opponent who also won the Eredivisie best youth award in the 00-01 season.

"Good kick!"

"You're not bad either!" The head of the four great talents in the Netherlands raised his head slightly, and looked into Bai Xiaotian's eyes without hesitation.

Seeing the other party's unyielding eyes, Bai Xiaotian grinned, "See you in Hejia!"

"See you in Eredivisie!" Van der Vaart replied immediately.

Van der Vaart made his Eredivisie debut in the 99-00 season, and Ajax also had many opportunities to play in the 00-01 season.

At the age of one year younger than Bai Xiaotian, he scored 7 goals and 7 assists, which is already very difficult.

But Ajax is really bad this season, almost to the limit.Van der Vaart, as an organizational midfielder, has no room to play at all.

But Bai Xiaotian knew that after Ajax replenished the ammunition on the front line in the second half of the year, it would be almost impossible for Eindhoven to take the opponent lightly.

Looking at the backs of van der Vaart and others leaving, Bai Xiaotian felt emotionally, if nothing unexpected happened, this might be the last batch of "golden players" of the Dutch team.
