Chapter 182

The Dutch Cup final is coming soon. One is a long-established team, a traditional giant, and the other is a super dark horse, a new champion. This game is definitely a national derby. Before the game, major newspapers have made predictions about the final.

"ad" believes that this is a heavyweight contest, and the newly promoted and dark horse Alkmaar will eventually win in the final.[..com]

"The competition for the league title this season was mainly between Alkmaar and Feyenoord. In the end, Alkmaar had the last laugh. Now the Dutch Cup final is still between two old enemies. This season also means that

There is one more heavyweight contest. China Jiang's team won the league championship and also reached the Dutch Cup final. This is entirely the result of Alkmaar taking the cup seriously.

In this game, AZ Alkmaar was waiting for work. They had nearly 20 more days of rest, and they were playing in Amsterdam, which is closer to them. Don’t underestimate the difference in rest time. At the end of the intensive league and cup matches, they were physically exhausted.

The difference could be decisive."

"Renren Daily" said: "Although Alkmaar is a newly promoted team, their performance in the league and cup competitions is jaw-dropping. Before the start of the season, Jiang Mu's talk of winning a double championship was considered a joke. But now, they

They are getting closer and closer to winning the double crown. Feyenoord did not stop AZ Alkmaar from winning the championship in the league, and it is difficult for them to win a championship in the cup."

Amsterdam's local evening newspaper "The Oath" believes that "Alkmaar's prospects in the final are not clear": Altidore will leave, Tony is also rumored to be leaving, and the issue of contract renewal is plaguing the young new champions. They want to continue

To move forward, head coach Jiang needs to show better skills.

The metro newspaper "sp!its" stated that Alkmaar has been preparing for this match for several weeks. "From today onwards, tens of thousands of foreigners poured into Amsterdam, and almost all the bars were full. People were talking about it.

It's all about this game. Tickets for the Amsterdam Arena have long been sold out, and there is a police officer on duty at every corner around the stadium. Although the Dutch giant Ajax is not involved, the game between Feyenoord and AZ Alkmaar

It certainly caused a stir as well.”

Although Alkmaar is very close to the stadium, Jiang Mu still led the team to the Sea Palace Restaurant in advance. He had to let the young people adapt to the atmosphere of the final. The last game where he won the league frightened Jiang Mu.

In that kind of atmosphere and environment, he as a coach can't play any role, and he can only rely on the players' own efforts.

The cup is a knockout round, which is very different from the league. It is not played at his home court. Jiang Mu was worried that his players would make the same mistakes as last time, so he came to Amsterdam a day early.

In the afternoon at the Sea Palace, Jiang Mu held a press conference and announced the roster and starting lineup. Alkmaar's goalkeeper for this game is Silva, and the four defenders are Suleiman, Martens, and Ismail.

, Kronkamp, ​​the three midfielders are the two defensive midfielders Gattuso and Van Bommel, the one who leads the offense is Altidore, and the three forwards are: Kuyt, Drogba and Thomasson

Altidore, who was controversial before the game, appeared in the starting lineup, and Toni, who is likely to transfer with Altidore, also appeared in the substitute lineup. What is surprising is that Jiang Mu actually put the 15-year-old

Robben was also brought to Amsterdam. Although it was almost impossible for Robben to get a chance to play, Jiang Mu brought him in such a game, which is enough to show that Jiang Mu loves and values ​​Robben.

It is normal for Lucio to sit on the bench. Ismail and Martens are both older and more stable than him. In this final, Jiang Mu played more steadily.

Klose and Toni, two header experts, are both on the bench because Feyenoord's centre-backs Dehaan is 1.91 meters tall and Van Wendelen is 1.85 meters tall. They are very strong in the air. Jiang Mu doesn't want to

I want to play high-altitude balls and get some speed.

Some time later, Benhak also announced Feyenoord's starting lineup. This starting lineup has only slight changes from the previous battle between AZ Alkmaar and Feyenoord.

The formation is still the 433 formation: goalkeeper Dudek, four defenders Graf, Dehaan, Van Wendelen, Van Gobel, three midfielders: Tininho, van Gastel, Bouffel, three forwards:

Nikov, Cruise and Van Watson.

Due to the war of words during their last match, both Jiang Mu and Benhak were criticized by the Dutch Football Association. When they held a press conference this time, both sides deliberately did not provoke their opponents and only talked about their own football.

team, as well as the confidence and desire to win the championship.

But things that are supposed to run into each other always have to run into each other. During the adaptive training at the Amsterdam Stadium, the two teams met again.

It turned out that the management of the Amsterdam Stadium did not know what was going on and did not stagger the training times of the two teams.

The Feyenoord bus arrived before the first arriving Alkmaar players entered the stadium.

Both parties were stunned after meeting. Jiang Mu came over, smiled slightly at Ben Haq, and said: "Coach Leo, we were here first."

Benhak had no expression on his face. He looked at the Alkmaar players walking towards the court, turned around and waved to his own players, saying: "You guys wait in the car first, I'll go ask the stadium management."

At this time, the stadium management also ran over in a hurry, and he also knew that he had made a mistake.

"How is this going?"

Benhak said to the stadium management with a sullen face.

"Sorry, sorry, we made a mistake in our work." The stadium management quickly apologized to Benhak.

"Then how to solve this matter?" Benhak looked at the stadium management staff.

Jiang Mu said to the stadium management: "We arrived first and have changed our clothes. Do you want us to play a game first?"

The stadium management looked at the stadium and saw that it was indeed like this, so they said to Benhak: "Sir, can you wait a moment until they finish training before you start."

Ben Haq said: "Then how long do they need to train?"

The stadium management looked at Jiang Mu and said, "How long do you want to train?"

"Our habit is to train for two hours at a time." Jiang Mu deliberately said it took a long time, turned around and walked towards the court.

"Two hours, this won't work, we don't have time to wait." Benhak said angrily.

"Then you can go back to the hotel and wait." The groundskeeper, who was already dissatisfied with Ajax's mortal enemy Feyenoord, shrugged and said angrily.

"We are already here, but you ask us to go back to the hotel? I want to tell your club manager about this." Ben Haque took out the phone.

At this time, the assistant coach next to Benhak, Metgod, said: "We don't have to worry, we can see how they train."

When Benhak heard this, he stopped dialing and pondered for a moment. He felt that he had just seen Jiang Mu Guanggu and was angry. Unexpectedly, he said: "That's fine." He ignored the stadium manager and led the players to

Sit down on the bench and watch Alkmaar train.

With opponents watching from the sidelines, Alkmaar really couldn't train seriously. Fortunately, they were just doing adaptive training today. It wasn't really training. They were doing passing, receiving and circle-rushing training on the court, with some intermittent training in between.

Physical fitness and shooting practice, without showing any real things, made Feyenoord sulky looking up and down.

Two hours finally passed. Jiang Mu led the players and left with a whistle, leaving the stadium to Feyenoord who was sulking.

Before the game even started, Feyenoord suffered a blow on their rival's territory. Benhak didn't think it was Ajax's mistake. He thought it was Ajax deliberately trying to make him look bad. After the training,

, Benhak held a press conference and criticized the managers of the Amsterdam Stadium for their hostility towards Feyenoord.

Although Feyenoord is Ajax's mortal enemy, and Alkmaar, which is in the same area as Ajax, is also Ajax's opponent, but Benhak's criticism has made many Ajax who were not easy to choose.

Ajax fans pushed Alkmaar's side. During the game, Ajax fans gave Alkmaar significantly more applause than Feyenoord.

Naturally, the media will not let go of this little incident before the game. Many media believe that in the secret fight before the game, AZ Alkmaar won first. Although Feyenoord is a wealthy club, they were forced to make concessions.

But it dampened their morale a bit.

The night before the game, Dilka and his daughter Skhelinja came to the Sea Palace where Jiang Mu and the players were staying. Now is a key step to fulfill his dream. The opponent is Feyenoord, and there will definitely be a fight.

After a hard fight, Dilk must encourage these players and let them complete the final step of the season.

During the meeting time after dinner, Jiang Mu accompanied Dilk and Schlinja to the hotel conference room. Seeing the arrival of club president Dilk, the players applauded enthusiastically.

Dilk has a very good image among the players. At least compared to other brain-dead presidents, Dilk has good taste. He likes football, but he is self-aware and will not instruct the head coach to buy or sell like Moratti.

No one like Berlusconi would dictate the head coach's formation. As chairman, he would rule by doing nothing. If he was needed to get money, he would show up and disappear if nothing happened.

After Jiang Mu talked about some points that needed to be paid attention to tomorrow, he took out a big box that he had just brought in. The players' eyes were all on Dilk and Schlinja, and they didn't notice it.

"Hello everyone, there is only the last game left this season. This is the game that determines the championship. You will need to fight with blood and sweat tomorrow. You are not only fighting for the team and club, but also for your own dreams.

Fight for honor.

At this time, Mr. Dilke came, and he came to encourage us. What is in this box is the reward Mr. Dilke gave us..."

Having said this, Jiang Mu opened the box with a bang, and the colorful Dutch guilders inside suddenly came into view. They turned out to be Dutch guilders.

"Ah!" Everyone at the venue was surprised. Many people almost couldn't help but touch their glasses to see if they had fallen off. Because the chance of winning the championship before the season was very small, the club set a large bonus, just like Jiang Mu

, his bonus is more than twice his annual salary.
