God of Green
Chapter 26
In the following time, although the main team kept pressing the substitute team and had many shooting opportunities, they failed to score.
In the 54th minute, the main team's forward Moussa Dembele made a cross from the side, and the striker Hamdaoyi volleyed in the penalty area, but Romero subconsciously reached out and flicked it, hitting the door frame and bouncing back into the penalty area.
Jiang Xiaolin's full-value off-ball running made him the first to run to the landing point of the ball, and he stretched out his foot to cushion it, thinking that he could get a supplementary goal!
Unexpectedly, Romero, who had just blocked Hamdaoyi's first shot, leaped again and hugged Jiang Xiaolin's ball directly in his arms, not even leaving a corner kick for the main team.
If this wave of two consecutive saves appeared in the official game, it would undoubtedly be one of the top ten saves of the week, and it would be ranked at the top, but unexpectedly it appeared in an internal team training match.
Romero's performance attracted several coaches to cheer loudly on the sidelines.
The second half of the training match, which was supposed to be a test for Jiang Xiaolin, turned into a show match for Romero.
Jiang Xiaolin was naturally unwilling to give up and was still trying to find opportunities.
He still wanted to score.
Although the opponent had become stronger, his teammates had also become stronger, and their ability to see through the gaps and pass the ball was much better than that of his teammates in Pulmes.
As long as he ran out of the gap, Jiang Xiaolin believed that there would always be a chance to shoot.
Finally, in the 59th minute, when the training match was about to end, the main team's attack hit the front court again. The winger Schals made a cross from the bottom, and the front midfielder Maarten Maartens followed up in the middle and made a sweeping move, attracting the goalkeeper Romero and the nearby defenders.
The two defenders rushed to Maartens with all their strength, trying to stop him from shooting. Romero moved in the direction of Maartens facing the goal, ready to save.
At this tense moment, everyone forgot about Jiang Xiaolin.
Jiang Xiaolin ran behind Martens without anyone noticing. Only Martens caught Jiang Xiaolin's position with his peripheral vision before shooting.
This is the vision and insight of an excellent Dutch midfielder, which is far different from that of amateur teams.
After seeing Jiang Xiaolin's position, Martens did not force the shot.
He just made a shooting motion, attracted the attention of the opponent's defender and goalkeeper, but lightly lifted his foot and let the ball pass.
The defender and goalkeeper Romero were stunned.
He wanted to turn around and defend, but it was too late.
Jiang Xiaolin ran four or five meters behind Martens and easily pushed the ball into the back of the goal without any defense.
After seeing the ball go into the net, Jiang Xiaolin rushed to Martens again, hugged him again, and shouted, "Martens, it was a beautiful leak!"
Martens also patted Jiang Xiaolin on the shoulder and said, "Congratulations, you scored another goal."
At this time, the coach who served as the referee blew the whistle to end the game. Whether it was the main players or the substitutes, everyone gathered around to congratulate Jiang Xiaolin.
Finally, it was Romero's turn. He said unconvincedly: "You are lucky. The second goal was a great mistake by Martens."
Jiang Xiaolin laughed and said: "Anyway, I scored two goals against you. However, your performance was also very good. I saw the coaches' eyes shining when they looked at you."
Romero shook his head slightly and sighed in a low voice: "It's difficult! No matter how well you perform in training, as long as the main goalkeeper does not have any accidents in the official game, it is difficult for the substitute goalkeeper to become the main goalkeeper."
Jiang Xiaolin also knew this was the truth. He could only comfort this new friend and let him continue to train with peace of mind, maintain his condition, and wait for possible opportunities.
Anyway, Romero is already a signed player of Alkmaar and has joined the Argentine Olympic team, but he is still a trial player.
Jiang Xiaolin is more concerned about his future.
Fortunately, Jiang Xiaolin played at his due level in this training match. He scored a header and a push shot in the 30-minute training match, completing a good show of scoring twice.
Such performance undoubtedly conquered all coaches including Van Gaal.
You know, this was Jiang Xiaolin's first training match with the players of Alkmaar's first team. There was no cooperation or tacit understanding at all. Jiang Xiaolin didn't even know the team's tactics.
He relied entirely on his personal ability to find loopholes in the substitute team's defense, and then waited for his teammates to feed him the ball.
In this case, Jiang Xiaolin was able to score two goals in just 30 minutes, which was really outstanding.
You know, most of the young forward players who came for trial training couldn't even make a threatening shot, let alone score a goal.
Jiang Xiaolin signed with Alkmaar, and there was no obstacle andObjection!
Before the training was over, Van Gaal left the training ground and went to the office building to find General Manager Anselm.
Hearing that Van Gaal was going to sign a Chinese, Anselm immediately expressed serious doubts.
"Chinese people can play football? Are you sure?" Anselm said in surprise.
Van Gaal was a little annoyed: "I don't know if other Chinese people can play football, but Jiang can not only play, but also play very well, not inferior to Hamdaoyi and Ali."
Anselm was immediately surprised.
As the general manager, although he usually doesn't care about the team's competitive level, he still knows that Hamdaoyi and Ali are the main strikers of the current team.
If Jiang Xiaolin is really not inferior to these two people, and he is also a 16-year-old amateur player and a free man who does not need to spend a transfer fee, then signing him is simply a huge profit!
Therefore, Anselm thought for a while and asked, "What kind of contract are you going to give him?"
Van Gaal said, "Of course it's a professional contract for the first team."
Anselm frowned and said, "Are you going to let him play in the Eredivisie in the second half of the season?"
Van Gaal shook his head and said, "No, he still has a lot of shortcomings and needs to be put in the youth team to improve. However, the purpose of signing a professional contract is to avoid other teams from poaching him."
Anselm nodded and agreed.
But Anselm still had some doubts about the talent of the yellow race and the Chinese in playing football. He was still a little undecided without seeing it with his own eyes.
Therefore, Anselm finally said, "When is the next training match scheduled for the team?"
Van Gaal said, "Two days later, on the afternoon of January 10th."
Anselm nodded and said, "Okay, I'll come and see it then. As long as he doesn't perform badly, I'll sign it."
Van Gaal was a little dissatisfied, but he knew that his performance this season was not good, and he was not as good as in the previous two seasons when he spoke in front of the club's top management.
Therefore, although he was somewhat dissatisfied, he suppressed his dissatisfaction and approved of Ansem's arrangement.
Jiang Xiaolin's strength was there anyway, so he was not afraid of Ansem coming to inspect the site.
