Chapter 179 Robben's debut

The battle between Alkmaar and Nijmegen on May 8th was originally a league match that was not even considered tasteless, but it attracted a lot of attention because of the big roster announced by Jiang Mu.

Arjen Robben

A boy born on January 23, 1984 appears on the roster.

"What does Jiang Mu want to do? Do you want this child to play professionally?"

"Is this the wrong list?"

"The Chinese must be doing something weird again to attract attention!"

For a time, the media and fans were talking a lot, wondering what Jiang Mu was doing, and the name Arjen Robben was also exposed to everyone's sight from this time on.

The game against Nijmegen has no practical significance other than warming up and maintaining condition. Naturally, Jiang Mu will not send out all the main players. The main lineup will be a combination of substitutes and main players. There are also players from the youth team who come up to play soy sauce.

After Alkmaar scored in the 30th minute of the first half, the game remained calm. The 1-0 scoreline lasted until the 75th minute of the second half. The score was equalized by Nijmegen. Jiang Mucai replaced two strikers in succession.

Didier Drogba and Thomasson, but if the players did not devote themselves wholeheartedly, they would definitely not be able to play the fast and fierce AZ Alkmaar's true style of play. Although AZ Alkmaar had the advantage, the score could not be changed.

Eighty minutes into the game, Jiang Mu had no intention of making a substitution. The commentators and fans all thought that Jiang Mu just brought Robben to the court to feel the atmosphere of a professional game, rather than really wanting him to play. After all, Robben

Ben is too young, only 15 years, 3 months and 15 days old.

However, Robben's father Hans, who was standing in the stands, kept shouting his son's name. Yesterday Robben told him that he would play in the professional league today. Hans was very eager to see his son appear on the green.

On the court, even if it's only for one minute.

Sitting on the bench, Robben looked particularly weak among a group of tall adult players. He looked nervously at the court, and from time to time he secretly glanced at Jiang Mu who was standing on the sidelines, his eyes very clearly exposed.

He looked eager to appear but also afraid.

Van Bommel and Martens sat next to Robben. As the team deputy, Van Bommel gently patted Robben on the back and said: "Don't worry, there is still time. The coach asked you to sit here. I'm sure

I will give you time to appear."

Martens smiled and said: "If you want to play, the record of the youngest appearance in the Eredivisie will be broken by you."

When the game reached the 82nd minute, Jiang Mu waved to Robben, "Arjan, come out and warm up your body and get ready to play."

When Arjan Robben heard these words, it was as if he was struck by lightning. He jumped up, rushed out of the bench, and stammered to Jiang Mu: "Coach, did you call me?"

Jiang Mu touched Robben's head and said, "What do you think? Show yourself well and don't let me down."

Robben was suddenly hit by a huge sense of happiness. He clenched his fists in excitement, "Don't worry, coach, I won't let you down."

Robben warmed up on the sidelines and immediately attracted everyone's attention. Reporters' cameras also focused on this 15-year-old kid from time to time. Everyone understood that even if Robben played for one minute, he would create the best player in the Eredivisie.

Young league appearance record.

"It's about to appear!"

"Robben is coming on!"

"That little brat is coming on!"

Seven minutes later, Arjen Robben, who was carrying the number 38 despite being constantly called for, finally came on the field. He was replaced by Kuyt, who was also very young. At this moment, the appearance record in the Eredivisie was fixed at

15 years, 3 months and 15 days old.

"Isn't it too risky to let Robben play? He is only a little over 15 years old and can easily get injured." Lin Nazhou said a little uneasily.

"Learning to protect yourself is exactly what I want Robben to learn, rather than simply feeling the atmosphere of the game. This is a required course for geniuses." Jiang Mu said seriously.

"How can he learn? The players around him are all a head taller and stronger than him." Lin Nazhou was still a little worried.

"Well, now he needs to learn to avoid his shortcomings and shortcomings, and use his strengths to fight against many opponents who are stronger than him, instead of waiting until he is eighteen or nineteen years old and just want to use his speed and body

When you bully others, you are actually more likely to get hurt."

Because Jiang Mu had the experience of later generations, he knew that Robben was a glass man and was often injured, so he risked the disapproval of the world and sent the 15-year-old Robben onto the court.

Robben got his first pass only a minute after he came on. This was when he pulled back from the left wing position to the edge of his penalty area and there was no one around. Suleiman passed it to him, but it was

After receiving the ball, Robben did not have enough understanding of the rhythm of the game and could not accurately judge the speed and leg length of his opponents. Before he could react, he was immediately intercepted by his opponent.

The second pass Robben received also came back to his own half. It was a throw from goalkeeper Cesar. At this moment, full-back Suleiman had already gone up to assist. Cesar was helpless.

Throwing the ball to the only safe kid, Robben.

It was already the 91st minute of the game, and the score was still tied one to one. Although for Alkmaar, a draw was acceptable, as long as they didn't fail, it was fine.

But for Robben, he only played for 4 minutes, and now two minutes have passed. He has to perform well and not let Jiang Mu down. The young kid is still very naive and does not think about so much fame and fortune. It is just an idea.

, can’t let down the coach and the father in the stands.

Robben moved forward quickly with the ball, and almost all the cameras were following him. The Nijmegen striker gave up after a symbolic chase and did not intercept. Perhaps he thought Robben was too small and there was no threat if he rushed forward.

The midfielder could not let go of Robben easily. Nijmegen's No. 6 rushed in quickly, trying to use his body to intercept the ball. But Robben was very smart and made an emergency stop, then accelerated and used the rhythm.

The change caused No. 6 to misjudge Robben's position and distance, and Robben passed him by.

My No. 6 midfielder was passed by the opponent's kid, but the No. 2 right back didn't take it too seriously. The opponent was too small. If he looked like he was facing a formidable enemy, he would definitely be beaten.

What's ridiculous is that even if the fans are too far away to see it, the camera won't let this kid get a close-up shot.

So the No. 2 right back made a very bad choice. He gave up his position and stepped forward directly to steal. He believed that his strength, speed, experience, height and weight, surpassed this little kid in every aspect. Could it be that this little kid

Can a kid still fly over his head?

However, the No. 2 full-back overestimated his speed and reaction. Robben's speed and frequency of movements were faster than him. When he stepped forward to steal, Robben quickly pushed and pushed the ball to the No. 2 supporting foot.

on the other side, and then used his short and flexible characteristics to quickly pass by No. 2. When passing by, the cunning Robben also bumped into No. 2 secretly, causing No. 2 who lost his center of gravity to almost get ahead of him.

On the ground.

Robben didn't make a move, but diagonally inserted into the penalty area and went straight towards the goal.

At this moment, the little kid suddenly turned into a little tiger. Facing the goal, even a child is a great threat to the goalkeeper.

The centre-back stepped in and the goalkeeper attacked, flanking Robben.

However, Robben showed great vision and high passing talent here. He did not force the shot, but passed the ball across the middle to the open space.

At this time, Drogba and Thomason arrived in the middle almost at the same time. Thomason beat Drogba one step and kicked the ball into the goal.

2:1

In the 2nd minute of stoppage time, Alkmaar completed the overtake, and 15-year-old Arjen Robben made a magical assist.

"goalgoalgoal... Thomason scored! 33 goals! Continue to expand the goal advantage over Ruud van Nistelrooy! The assist was Robben! Arjan Robben! This is an extremely unfamiliar name because he is the first to join the league.

When he entered the Eredivisie, he was only 15 years and 3 months old. He was still a child, but it was this child who ran long distances from the backcourt to the frontcourt and assisted Thomasson's go-ahead goal!"

The fans who were originally relaxed and tired in the stands suddenly became crazy and gave warm applause to Robben who made the assist. Some fans were still shouting Robben's name.

The craziest and most excited person was of course Robben's father Hans. He took off his shirt and waved it in his hands, shouting "My son! You are the best!"

At this moment, Hans was full of gratitude to Jiang Mu. After Robben came to Alkmaar, Jiang Mu continued to make training plans based on Robben's characteristics. Robben improved very quickly and quickly jumped from U15 to U16.

Jumped to U17 again, and now he is appearing in the professional arena. Without Jiang Mu, Hans doesn't even know where Robben's future is. In the Netherlands, there are so many football talents that no one knows who can play.

The coaches and substitutes on the sidelines also applauded in surprise. Everyone was surprised. Even Jiang Mu did not expect Robben to be able to travel long distances to complete assists. The media would definitely make a stir after the game. Robben was afraid that he would not be able to imagine it.

It’s hard to be red.

"This kid is indeed outstanding, far ahead of his peers, but becoming famous too early is not a good thing. There is an old Chinese saying that disappearing is not necessarily a good thing." Lin Nazhou added.

"I became famous too early and couldn't sign a professional contract for fear of being poached," Zhao Guangming said.

"We just need to teach our children to bear the pressure brought by fame, and also teach them not to inflate themselves under false fame." Jiang Mu said calmly. Although he was also worried, with the advantage of rebirth, he could recruit more talents.

Who knows, I am not afraid of being robbed of a Robben.

However, in the last minute, Nijmegen exerted all its pressure and attacked desperately. Alkmaar, who was afraid of being injured, lost ground in the midfield, and Robben had no performance. In addition, at the last second of stoppage time, Nijmegen also used a corner kick to score.

The equalizing goal was scored, and the score of 2:2 eliminated the decisive role of Robben's assist, but it made Jiang Mu happy. For him, it is best for Robben not to be too famous, and not to become famous so fast and so big.
