Chapter 23 Do I still have a chance?
Chapter 23
With Robben's goal in injury time, Eindhoven returned to the locker room with a goal advantage.
Robben won every game in the first three rounds of the league.
It took him only a month to gain recognition from the whole team. Even the defender who played solo in the preseason and did not like to play football with some complaints, also agreed to his unreasonable playing style.
"Aryan's ball is really amazing. When we workers on the defense encounter such a guy, there is nothing we can do except pray for him to make a mistake!"
"Thanks to the club for snatching this kid, otherwise we will sooner or later walk back to the locker room like Alkmaar's players!"
"That ball is so cool. We want all the Eredivisie players to experience what it feels like to be overturned by Alyang."
The defender led by Oye has now been attracted by Robben. With such a tough character in the frontcourt who can make a comeback, their defensive pressure has been greatly reduced.
Hunterlaal, who was on the team's roster for the first time, seemed very excited. He finally tasted what it felt like to enter the team's core circle.
Although he is on the same team, he can clearly feel the difference between his position and Robben in the team.
Although everyone is training together, except Robben, he and other players have basically no intersection in life.
Only when he sat in the locker room did he deeply realize that he was just a fringe player who was dispensable to the club.
His biggest wish now is to be able to play, even if he plays for a while in every game, it will count.
Hiddink rarely encouraged the whole team during his halftime speech: "Young men, you did a good job. In the future, the opponents we meet will pay more and more attention to us, and the tactics will become more and more targeted, because defeating Eindhoven is a glory.
But we are not afraid of any team, the Eredivisie championship this season must belong to Eindhoven!”
The teammates in the locker room were like children who were looking forward to being praised by their elders. After receiving praise from the head coach, they immediately became excited.
"Brothers, let's fuck these poor people!"
Van Bomel took advantage of the head coach's training and quickly ignited the locker room with the most down-to-earth words.
Robben was also very excited, but compared to these flammable and explosive teammates, he seemed relatively restrained.
The scene just now gave him some insights.
Compliments are an effective means to increase morale. To stay until the time when needed most, Hiddink should have particularly wanted to slap Floait in the face today, so it continued to ignite the team's enthusiasm.
Players with a hot personality like Van Bomel are often natural candidates for the captain.
"Aryan, do you think I will have a chance to play today?"
Just as Robben silently summed up his life experience, Hunterlaer said quietly.
After looking at Hunterla's fanatical eyes, Robben found that he was a little afraid to look at him. His eyes made Robben feel a sense of hair and bone damage.
"I don't have to say anything about this. You have to ask the boss..."
Why do you have to look at me with such eyes? The old man doesn’t nod, even if I scored another 10 goals in the second half, it won’t work.
Robben couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Hearing his words, Hunterlaer hesitated for a few seconds before walking towards Hiddink.
"Mr. Gus, do I still have a chance?"
Hunterlaer's magical voice suddenly calmed down the locker room, which had just been jubilant.
At this time, not only Robben, but everyone present had their hair standing up.
Even though Hiddink was unable to show his majestic posture at this time, Hunterlaer's words actually broke his aura.
Hearing this sentence, Hiddink felt that the other party was not praying for opportunities, but giving himself opportunities.
The locker room was inexplicably shrouded in a terrifying atmosphere.
"I... I will seriously consider it. Men, it depends on you whether Kras has a chance to play in the second half!"
Throwing this sentence, Hiddink turned around and walked out of the locker room and settled. Jason hurriedly followed him out. This feeling was so terrifying.
"We also go to the player channel..."
Hearing Van Bomel's words, the main players of Eindhoven scrambled to leave the locker room.
If you stay with this kid, I'm afraid everyone will suffer from claustrophobia.
At the beginning of the second half, Alkmaar's head coach Floait looked at the Eindhoven players running wildly like rhinos, and his team instantly suppressed them in half and couldn't move.
"What the hell is going on? Who is behind? What the hell is going on in their locker room?"
Floait, who regarded himself as a coach, sweared at his assistant coach. He really didn't understand what was really exciting to his opponent.
"Aryang, find a way to score a goal quickly. I don't dare to look at the bench now. That kid's eyes were like a wolf!"
Robben also felt the same way: "Let's find a way to get that werewolf out..."
The Eindhoven players became particularly selfless on the court, and everyone could not imagine if Hunterlaer could not score the goal, he would explode on the plane back.
After the 55th minute of the game, Eindhoven received his second goal.
Robben used the continuous change of direction to swing past Gamb, then used the man ball to break away from Tosong and broke into the penalty area.
Just when everyone thought he was going to replicate his performance in the first half, Robben passed the ball to Romedal, who was in the open position at the far end.
If it were normal, Hiddink would have been unable to help but complain: "This kid actually passed the ball!"
But at this time he was very calm, and Hunterla's eyes were so hot now.
Romedal was not greedy for me either. He drew the central defender who made up for defense and passed the ball to Kezman in the middle.
The latter scored with a push shot against the goalkeeper alone.
2 to 0!
After celebrating, the Eindhoven players took the initiative to put the football on the center line.
Floait had already gone wild: "Who is so disgusting? They treat us as cash machines!"
Alkmaar players fought too fiercely in the first half, and after being scored the second goal by their opponent, morale was depressed. After kicking off again, they could only defend passively, giving most of the courts to the visiting team.
Facing Alkmaar, who was retreating from the entire line, the midfielder led by Van Bomel made a fierce attempt at a long shot from the outside.
In the next 15 minutes, Alkmaar's beams and columns made loud noises twice in a row.
"This damn goal can't be good, put the football in!"
Van Bommel vented his emotions loudly, but he didn't dare to look at the bench.
In the 75th minute, Eindhoven won a corner kick, and Oye and Hofland ran to the penalty area without hesitation.
Romedal took a corner kick, and several headers from Eindhoven all put the defenders behind him, and everyone had a fear of being dominated.
The corner kick was in the middle, and Oye leaped high and smashed the ball towards the goal.
The header was strong and the goalkeeper had given up saving and stared at the football with his eyes.
What drove everyone crazy was that when the defense had given up, Oye's header hit the bottom edge of the crossbar.
The football hit the crossbar, bounced to the goal line and bounced high again.
Alkmaar's goalkeeper put his center of gravity on his legs and was struggling to get up.
The defender next to the goal post and Kejiman took off at the same time. At this time, the players of both teams looked up as if they had been frozen and watched the two compete for the jumping force.
Although Kaijiman is not as tall as the opponent, his core abilities are obviously better, so he took the lead in football.
The football drew a parabola and slowly flew into the goal.
3 to 0!
All the players of Eindhoven hugged each other excitedly. The goal killed the game and finally summoned the werewolf to the court.
Hiddink was not pretentious either. He immediately replaced Brookinger with Hunterra and replaced Boma with Heinzer.
After appearing, the hungry Hunterlaer kept pulling his opponent's defense like a wolf.
In the 85th minute, Robben once again mixed up his opponent's defense line.
He looked up and saw Hunterlaer at the far end of the goal, and the defender beside him was half short of him.
With the idea of supporting the little brother, Robben decisively passed it.
Hunterlaer immediately took off. Although his jumping height was average, he had a very good grasp of the timing.
The goalkeeper of Alkmaar could not react to such a close header, and watched the thin monkey push the ball into the goal.
After scoring the goal, Hunterlaer was like a beast, running and shouting.
Seeing that he finally vented his energy, Eindhoven team breathed a sigh of relief.
Chapter completed!
