[Football] The Light of Abandoned Sons

Rij Kald looked at the Dutch national team roster in his hand, put the dozen of papers in his hand on the table with great helplessness, and sighed.The assistant coach beside him looked at the head coach of the Dutch national team, "Isn't the squad already almost determined?"

Rijkaard clicked on the two names on the front page, "Edwin van der Sar and Lou van der Ley, tell me, which one should I choose?"

"Edwin's performance in the national team has been stable..." the assistant coach finished, watching Rijkaard close his eyes even more tangled, "Yes, that's right, Edwin's performance has been stable, this is his advantage, But there is no doubt that Aarau will be better than him when he is good. Moreover, how long has he been in the professional league, and how the best goalkeeper in the league twice can tell. As for Edwin, he moved to Juventus this season Empress Si's performance is more or less unsatisfactory, right?"

The assistant coach asked a little awkwardly, "Why did you suddenly think of such a question?" Van der Sar was basically the starting goalkeeper in so many games. Although Van der Sar's personality is relatively introverted and lacks leadership qualities, his performance has always been remarkable. point.Rijkaard curled his lips, "There are two guys who are not safe after retirement, and I desperately recommended that kid."

He was referring to Van Basten and Gullit.

If he knows something about the culture of the East, especially China, he may understand that such a situation is called "leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade".

"Mr. Basten has a good relationship with him, and I know something about it." The assistant coach was a little stunned, "But Mr. Gullit? His dismissal from Chelsea is, to some extent, the last straw, right? Rijkaard shrugged his shoulders, indicating that the truth is what he thought and said. To be honest, the most willful of the three is Van Basten, but the stubborn and awkward Gullit will not lose at all.

Do you choose the stable Van der Sar, or choose Van der Ley for a thrilling move?

The assistant coach looked at Rijkaard who was still full of entanglements, "I don't know if you know, Lou van der Lei, he has never won a penalty shootout since he transferred to Manchester United." Rijkaard was stunned, " Manchester United haven't had any penalty shootouts in the past two years, have they?"

"On the one hand, Aarau's performance is really good. On the other hand, Manchester United tried their best not to drag the game into a penalty shootout," the assistant coach said. The degree determines the team's victory or defeat."

Rijkaard sneered, and said as if mocking himself, "It's as if Van der Sar is not Dutch." After finishing speaking, he looked at the relevant information of the young man in his hand, and finally sighed and closed it slowly. superior.

There is no doubt that the European Cup co-hosted by the Netherlands and Belgium in 00 was a wonderful one.

In this game, there is no lack of reversal, no lack of upset, no lack of slaughter, and of course, no lack of regret.

Portugal's golden generation led by Figo and Rui Costa is at its peak. The host Netherlands ushered in the strongest lineup after the Three Musketeers. Neither Zidane nor Trezeguet can conceal the brilliance of Zidane.

However, victory must be accompanied by failure. Portugal lost a handball penalty in the penalty area by Xavier, and Yugoslavia's offensive was also blasted by the Netherlands with a score of 6-1.The Netherlands, which must lose every penalty kick, met a well-matched opponent-Italy, which also missed every penalty kick. The two legendary teams played a penalty shootout like this, and then Italy won. (…)

Toldo, who played because of Buffon's injury, won the reputation of Santoldo with a record of 6 goals and only 1 goal (don't worry about the number of shots from the Netherlands).In this way, the two national teams scored 11 of 4 penalty kicks to end the game. The Netherlands once again fell in the penalty shootout and won a "good name" that has not lost the game in regular time. It was also cheered and abandoned by Italy, becoming the The only national team that has not won a penalty kick in a major competition for nearly ten years.In the end, France won the World Cup.

But this is more like a bystander's perspective for Lou van der Rey.

Lou van der Ley ran back in the morning, opened the refrigerator and looked at the empty inside, picked out a bottle of mineral water and took it out.Pick up the remote control to turn on the TV, and watch the new issue of "Match of the Day". This football program has not officially started in the Premier League. Now, if you contact the biggest game today, you can basically guess what will be said. arrive.

He guessed it, he stood in front of the TV and continued to listen to the discussion of these hosts.

"So, regarding the just-concluded World Cup in Korea and Japan, I think you must be full of words and want to talk?" After Gary Lineker finished speaking, he waved his hands and signaled for us to enter the discussion immediately.

Regarding the Korea-Japan World Cup, I have to say that even without the high-level World Cup in France in 98 and the European Cup in Holland and Belgium in 00 as a foreshadowing, it is one of the best tournaments in history that makes people laugh and cry.

Of course, there are quite a lot of topics.Leaving aside those red and yellow cards and penalties that only make people confused Oliver Kahn, who dragged Germany to the World Cup final, was also celebrated, and besides…

Aarau looked at the few people who had been arguing fiercely according to the script for a long time, and after a short break, they turned to a new round of war, "Many people say that Lou van der Ley is a top goalkeeper, but that is for Manchester United. What do you think? ?”

Lineker, who was in charge of the whole game, opened his mouth with a gunpowder-flavored sarcasm, "The Netherlands failed to enter the World Cup finals. They complained that their opponents in the group stage were too strong. They encountered the most powerful Ireland in recent years and the golden generation of Portugal. They complained that there were too many internal conflicts among the players. God knows that Kluivert still had enough energy to toss the locker room while his state was declining; Negative ending and knockout. Now they're blaming a substitute keeper who hasn't played a game?"

Alan Hansen, who was invited as a guest, shrugged, "It's really bad luck. Portugal's ranking is very low. The third place in the group stage of the Netherlands scored [-] points and was eliminated. The first place in the England group was only [-] points. Seven points." Lineker is a former England international, and Alan Hansen, a former Scotland international, said these words without the slightest bit of pressure.

"But speaking of it, the experience of being absent from the national team, except for Italy and Germany," said the only female guest, Scarlett, with a meaningful smile. "It seems that other European teams have experienced it? Why only the Netherlands If you can't play football well, someone will talk about unity?"

"So, what do you think is the problem?" Lineker sneered, "Anyway, in my opinion, Van Gaal should carefully discuss how to appoint players."

"You always feel that Van Gaal should withdraw Kluivert and choose to trust Van Nistelrooy?" Alan Hansen more or less guessed what he wanted to say, but he just didn't say it.Lineker gave him a stern look, "I'm talking about Van Gaal choosing Fulham's Van der Sar instead of Manchester United's Lou van der Ley."

Scarlett shook her head, "You can't put the responsibility of conceding a goal on a goalkeeper, not to mention that although Van der Sar's performance in Juventus was not as good as Ajax, he was squeezed by Buffon to Fuller Mu, but he has been consistent with the national team."

Alao raised his eyebrows and watched the three irrelevant people arguing about this topic, and turned off the TV directly.He looked at the water bottle that had been emptied but was also stained with water in his hand, and controlled his strength to throw it into the trash can not far away.Just as I was about to go to the bathroom, I saw the phone suddenly lit up and the name on the caller ID, and my steps stopped.

"Hey Ruud, have you returned to Manchester?" The caller was Ruud van Nistelrooy, who transferred to Manchester United in the summer of 01 and won England Footballer of the Year in his first season.

Fanny on the other end of the phone sounded full of anger. Aarau listened to him swearing at the street on the other end of the phone. He curled his lips and did not stop him. He opened the curtains and looked at the two reporters' cars that were fixed outside the door, waiting for him to stop. Yoyo said, "It's been several months, why are you still so angry?"

"...Louis van der Ley, I will only have the World Cup in 06!" Ruud van Nistelrooy, who is not famous at a young age, is a striker who eats his youth. He can't understand his situation. How can it be a few months? Wounds that can be healed?

"Isn't there still the European Cup in 04?" Alao opened the curtains, and a large amount of sunlight shone in, causing him to narrow his eyes slightly. Fanny on the other end of the phone paused, "Don't tell me You forget the difficulty of changing from old to new."

Alao licked his lips, his eyes were not focused when he looked into the distance, "Hey, dear Rude, it's not certain."

Fanny paused, and changed the subject as if he remembered something, "Want to have a drink tonight?" Aarau subconsciously glanced at his watch, "I'm going to two old people's homes for lunch, and Chelesen asked me to watch the interview in the afternoon My publicist. No problem at night."

"Chelesen asked you to go in person for this kind of thing?" Fanny pouted, "Two old people?"

"Oh you don't know, before you came to Manchester United, I moved away from their house."

-

The two old people that Aarau mentioned are naturally the former landlord couple, Charlie, a fiery-tempered diehard Manchester United fan, and Anne, who has a gentle personality and can be regarded as gourmet food in England.After the season of Manchester United's triple crown, Aarau had his own house under the joint arrangement of the club and his agent, and moved away from the place of residence again.

But although he was a little bit reluctant to leave the two elderly people, only a house that truly belonged to him made him feel at ease.Lou van der Ley often goes back to visit the two old people, and also sends gifts and blessings during festivals.Today's lunch was also agreed before, and Aarau drove over after preparing everything.

The league is about to officially start, and a lot of messy things have been accumulated because of the few months of Lao van der Ley's free time.In addition to the situation that many fans are concerned about, many reporters or programs hope to conduct an exclusive interview with Aarau.

The conversation with the two old men was as usual, Charlie grabbed Aarau's hand and gritted his teeth, "Ou Guan, give us another Ou Guan, brat." Alao could only smile wryly, the Ou Guan is not Chinese cabbage, how can it be so good owned.Annie looked at this frequent scene with some helplessness, "Arau, you just have to play well. As long as you stand in front of Manchester United's goal, I feel at ease."

When Lou van der Ley sat in the car, he was still repeating what Anne said in his mind.He half-lyed on the car seat with a lot of pressure, but it has to be said that sometimes he just enjoys the feeling of such a lot of pressure.

He drove to the location of the interviewer that Cheletsen said, turned around and locked the car, and before he walked into the house, he heard someone calling his name behind him.

Alao turned his head and looked at the reckless woman not far away who wore a black slim suit and stepped on eight centimeter high heels as if she was about to run. A possibility came to his mind that made him uncomfortable. Consciously raised eyebrows.

"Alao, long time no see, I am..."

"There's no need to introduce yourself every time we meet," Aarau smiled and nodded his forehead, "Long time no see, Zendra."

About the national team game in the early hours of this morning

I have always guessed that the old blind will let the general play the left forward and the left forward center. I was wrong. The old blind did not let him play...

Krell, who was injured in the warm-up before Cillessen, and Donkey, who was also injured in the middle of the second half, scored three goals.

In the first half, Vimar Doum scored a goal, and in the second half, the captain's wife scored a goal.

There is probably a monkey fan in the two commentators, who keeps saying, "Look at Depay...if this is Huntelaar, you will enter" "Look at Vimardum (El Ghazi)...if this is Huntelaar went in."

It wasn't until Van Persie replaced Huntelaar in the No.807 minute that he began to wonder why Van Persie didn't start and why he played now.

Anyone who cares about him knows that this is his [-]th national team appearance, and we were so looking forward to his ball.

In one corner of the game broadcast I saw Dutch fans wearing orange short-sleeves in already cold Kazakhstan, and they shouted the name of the former captain.

Chengzi struggled to beat the bottom of the group, thanks to our coach Lao Xia for letting me play in the No. 807 minute of the game to make up a hundred games, and finally saw the third goalkeeper in real life... 5 minutes of stoppage time did not welcome me at the end The 50th goal ushered in Kazakhstan's goal... and the old blind, Ruud van Nistelrooy and van Basten who were more exciting on the coach bench than the stadium... and the little blind general who took over the captain's armband after his teacher's wife once said, If you don't have confidence in yourself, it's better not to play football.

The recent training camp of the Dutch team has been crazy and unseemly, with all kinds of hand in hand photos and crowds...

I wish the Netherlands good luck, as a Dutch fan, how can you not have the ability to fight?

One step away in 10 years, three consecutive losses in 12 years, losing to Argentina in 14...

I know that Turkey has won against the Czech Republic, and this Czech Republic, which was guaranteed to qualify before the game against Turkey, is our opponent in the next game.The only possibility of qualifying is that Turkey loses and the Netherlands wins. We are ready for the worst. It’s really okay. If you win, you will be crazy. After the real life-and-death battle, this is probably the first time in so many years that I feel that I can enjoy a Dutch game.Maybe the book is still not there, maybe I still can't play, or maybe I really can't become the No.1 of the national team with more than [-] goals...

but it's okay
