Football: The immortal legend on the green field
Chapter 88 Awkward Opening
Solvay United took a free kick, but the ball was too far away to be shot directly. The other side did not have a free kick expert who could make the final move, so they would rather drop the ball into the penalty area to create chaos and take advantage of the situation.
The opponent's free kick went straight to the far corner of the goal. There was a commotion in the small penalty area. Howard, who returned to the penalty area in a panic, had no defensive experience at all, but he fully demonstrated his advantage of accurately judging the landing point of the ball. He and goalkeeper Sasa grabbed the same point and knocked the football saved by Sasa into his own goal.
After more than a season, Howard finally scored his first goal for Haarlem, but it was an own goal into his own goal.
The ball goes in! 1:0!
Solvay Athletic, playing at home, is leading.
All the fans at the scene cheered suddenly, like a pot of boiling water, instantly igniting all the passion, and the entire Solvay Stadium was completely turned into a sea of joy.
Neeskens scored his first goal as coach of the team, and this goal will definitely go down in the history of Neeskens' coaching career.
Solvay United players rushed towards the Brazilian Mazinho who took the free kick. Both the crazy celebrations of the players on the field and the cheers of more than 2000 fans were like slaps in the face of Neeskens.
Neeskens stood on the sidelines like an angry lion, roaring at the players on the field and uttering unbearable curses.
The referee came to the sidelines and urged the players from both sides to enter the field, and gave Neeskens a yellow card.
This made Neeskens even angrier and he directed his fire at the referee on the field.
When the referee was about to take out the red card and send Neeskens away, Haarlem Athletic's assistant coach Breuer hurried forward and hugged the referee, constantly explaining something in the referee's ear. Neeskens was also pulled to the bench away from the referee by Shen Bin. Perhaps the referee was concerned about Neeskens' status in Dutch football, so he took back the red card. Only then did Neeskens escape the embarrassing situation of being sent off with a red card in his first coaching game.
In the remaining ten minutes of the game, Solvay United was obviously encouraged by the one-goal lead and their attack was much more aggressive than before. The situation returned to the situation in the first ten minutes of the game, and players from both sides began to practice offensive and defensive plays in the Haarlem Athletic half.
Captain Genes was hit hard from behind by the opponent when competing for a header with the opponent's midfielder. He finally stood up after emergency treatment by the team doctor.
Fortunately, encouraged by Genes' tenacious spirit, the players of Haarlem Athletic stubbornly withstood the opponent's offensive, focused their energy, and did not make any mistakes of principle. Although Solvay United had two threatening shots, they were bravely saved by the goalkeeper.
The referee blew the whistle to end the first half, and the players of Hallam Athletic returned to the locker room listlessly.
After the players endured Neeskens's curses for nearly five minutes, assistant coach Brewer interrupted at the right time, "John, don't just get angry. There are still 5 minutes in the game. We should make timely adjustments to the lineup. With the ability of our players, we can still tie the score."
"That is, there were many unreasonable aspects in our use of players in the first half. For example, every time the opponent attacked, I had to face two midfielders from the opponent, and I always lost sight of one while defending. I think the defensive midfielder position should be properly strengthened."
Neeskens's face was extremely gloomy at that moment. "It seems that no one has ever taught you etiquette! Lineup adjustments are the job of the coaching staff. As the captain on the field, you obviously did not do what you should have done.
If you think you are qualified to teach me, don't blame me for depriving you of your captaincy." Neeskens was furious, and Link had obviously offended Neeskens.
Link felt that he had only made a reasonable suggestion, but he was treated like this. He felt that as a captain, he had lost his prestige in front of the players, and no one in the team would take him as the captain seriously in the future.
Link angrily took off his captain's armband and threw it to the ground.
Seeing Link like this, Neskens was ready to fight with this old man in the team. As long as the other party dared to move, he would kick the bird to stop its reproductive function.
Since the team training, Neeskens prefers to go on the field with the players and enjoy the feeling of sweating profusely rather than rehearsing the lineup. After the training, he will go to the public bathroom with the players to wash off the sweat. He knows the physical condition of each player very well. "It's too much that your bird is so small that you can't see it. Do you like to take off your clothes for others to see? My team doesn't need someone without male characteristics to be the captain."
Link was furious, "I'm going to teach you a lesson!"
The two did not fight, after all, there were still many good people at the scene.
What happened in the locker room made Neeskens furious. He came back purely out of his love for football. Why didn't these bastards understand him at all!
Think about the earthquake that happened in the e-sports circle when UZI returned to EDG. This is the Netherlands. Football means everything to people at some point. Just like the legendary Liverpool coach Shankly said, "Football is not about life and death. Football is far above life and death."
As a Chinese, it is difficult to understand them, just as it is difficult for them to understand that some Chinese on the battlefield chose death without hesitation rather than raising their hands when everything else seemed impossible.
Neeskens is the second only to Cruyff in the Dutch Golden Generation. His return was given high value by the European media - to give the Dutch people, who had experienced the economic downturn brought about by the Wall Street stock market crash in the Netherlands and even Western Europe, and the confidence to face life again as prices soared.
When Neeskens' agent announced to the outside world through a simple press release, the man who could create miracles for Dutch football is back!
Some reporters who like to lick Neeskens' ass quoted the agent's statement and promoted Neeskens' love for football, as if the fans didn't know that this was a meritorious player who led the Netherlands to two World Cup runner-up titles during his peak period.
Just when he took over the coaching of the local team that he had dreamed of taking off, Horst Solon, who had returned from the United States, only wanted him to help make money and didn't care about anything else.
Before the start of the season, Neeskens made a series of aggressive moves, sending away three high-paid and low-performing Brazilian foreign players. As a result, the team now has no one available.
However, he gained little in the transfer market. The only thing that satisfied him was the Chinese man who sat in the corner, calm and composed like an old man who had experienced many vicissitudes of life.
Seeing other players frustrated, panicked, or at a loss... when he looked at them, they all tried their best to avoid him, and he felt very angry.
Oh! By the way, the only one who stood up to him has now been stripped of his captaincy...
