Chapter 165 Injury

"The boss said, don't worry, continue to play according to the current rhythm. The first task is to stabilize the defense and not give the opponent a chance, especially Deco, we must pay attention."

After listening to Yang Yang's words, De Jong nodded in agreement.

"Also, Stephen, Wesley, what the boss means is, don't dribble the ball, pass it from the backcourt to you and the full-backs as soon as possible, don't dribble the ball, pass it directly to the back, let Songke and I chase it, don't leave your defense zone easily."

Pienaar and Sneijder looked at each other, and they both understood the head coach's intentions.

After Yang Yang finished explaining, he quickly ran to the frontcourt and conveyed the opinions of the coaching staff to Wesley Songk and Ibrahimovic, and the midfielder also quickly conveyed the adjustment to the back line.

All these adjustments were repeatedly explained and even rehearsed before the game, so everyone quickly understood the intention.

……

"Yang Yang brought Ronald Koeman's adjustment opinions. I don't know what kind of tactics Ajax will adopt next, whether it will pose a threat to Porto, or whether it will adopt a more risky style of play."

"After all, except for the attack at the beginning of the second half, most of the rest of the game seemed dull."

"Although we have been mentally prepared for this, we still hope that both sides can play more excitingly. It is best for which team to score first. This will make it look better."

…………

…………

After Yang Yang came on stage, all his thoughts were forgotten by him.

I have forgotten all the anxiety and heavy pressure before.

Perhaps, this is one of his few advantages, that is, it is easier to become focused.

After playing, Yang Yang has been moving towards Porto's defense, especially the left backs Valente and Jorge Costa, but they are more of harassment, and neither side has any substantive contact.

This kind of pressing and oppression is also to be able to quickly insert behind him diagonally at the moment of transition from defense to offense.

Only 2 minutes into the game, Yang Yang got a chance.

As soon as the ball was passed to Sneijder's feet, Yang Yang quickly pasted it up, ready to go behind him, but Sneijder, under the interference of the opponent's defensive player, had no chance to pass the ball and had to pass it back.

But soon, Ajax got another chance. This time, Pienaer made a diagonal pass to the right, and Yang Yang quickly inserted it. However, the pass was too big. Yang Yang tried his best to catch up.

Pienaar raised his hand towards Yang Yang apologetically, expressing that he passed too much.

He was mainly afraid of being intercepted by the opponent, so he wanted to pass a slightly larger pass, but in the end he couldn't control it well and passed directly out of bounds.

"After the substitution, Ajax consciously wanted to strengthen the attack on the right, especially behind Valente, but Porto obviously did not intend to give Ajax such an opportunity. Mourinho shouted to Valente from the sidelines, as if to signal his players to stare at Yang Yang and not let him charge up."

"This idea is very good, but Yang Yang just came on the field, full of energy, and very fast. Valente is not good at speed. If Ajax always plays behind, it will still be very stressful for Valente."

"Look at this time, it's still Ajax stealing the ball, handing it to Trabelsi, and passing directly behind..."

……

At the moment when Trabelsi passed the ball, Yang Yang threw off Valente at the fastest speed, and chased the ball close to the right sideline, and Trabelsi's pass fell right in front of him.

On the one hand, Yang Yang observed the situation on the field through [God's Vision], and on the other hand, he caught up with the fastest speed. He took the ball under control the moment the ball landed, and cut inward from the right line.

Valente chased back desperately from the side and rear, but Jorge Costa had already blocked the inside of the penalty area in advance, but just when the two were about to complete the double-team, Yang Yang suddenly kicked back and passed the ball from the gap between the two back to the right side of the front of the penalty area.

Through [God's Vision], Yang Yang can clearly predict the defensive vacancy in this area, and Ibrahimovic's forward line is near here. As long as he reacts, it will be a very good kicking opportunity.

Sure enough, the Swedish center understood, rushed over quickly, and volleyed directly before Maniche.

The ball blasted towards the goal like a heavy artillery, but it was a pity that it slightly brushed the post and went out of the baseline.

The Swedish center stretched out his hands in distress, and grabbed his hair on both sides vigorously, wishing he could pull his head off.

What a great opportunity!

He suddenly felt very regretful, why didn't he practice shooting properly?

If his ability to seize opportunities was better, he might have scored a goal long ago.

But where is the regret medicine in this world?
"It's okay, Zlatan, there is still a chance." Yang Yang ran back, and when he passed by Zlatan Ibrahimovic, he encouraged his friend out of breath, and the sprint just now made him start to pant.

"Don't worry, if I do it again, I will definitely be able to enter." Ibrahimovic gritted his teeth and said fiercely.

The low scoring efficiency is the weakness that the Swedish center has been criticized since he joined Ajax. Even now, many fans have no objection to him. On the contrary, Wesley Sonck's scoring efficiency is relatively high, but the Belgian striker also has many problems. For example, under the strict marking of Porto, his performance is greatly reduced.

…………

…………

Although the attack just now failed to score a goal, it created a threat, and all Ajax fans still gave the team applause and encouragement.

Porto coach Mourinho was furious on the sidelines, yelling at Valente, as if to remind the left back not to forget his pre-match instructions, but Yang Yang didn't know what the specific instructions were.

The only thing he can be sure of is that after Mourinho lost his temper, Valente began to follow him closely.

Yang Yang is not at all surprised by such close marking. Since his outstanding performance, more and more teams have begun to adopt such a defensive strategy against him.

He began to expand his range of activities, dragging Valente to run with him, retreating to participate in defense and responding to passes from the midfield, rushing forward to chase the ball behind him, or actively pressing when Porto has the ball...

Yang Yang ran almost without hesitation on the court, which made Valente, who was closely guarding him, feel very depressed.

Victor Scola and Wesley Songk he defended before didn't have such a wide range of running, especially when the game is about to enter 10 minutes, how can he compete with a kid who just came off the bench?
Seeing Yang Yang's active performance on the right side, Valente felt angry. He couldn't help thinking of what the head coach said before the game, hoping that Yang Yang would not be able to finish the game.

Soon, when the game entered No. 80 minutes, Yang Yang once retreated to the midfield to get the ball. Valente suddenly rushed up from the side and rear.

The whole process happened in the blink of an eye, the referee's attention was attracted by the passing ball, and Valente's movements seemed to be logical. After pushing hard, he quickly staggered away, and he even took two steps slightly, as if he was not careful.

Yang Yang only felt a sharp pain in his right leg, followed by a force pushing him so that he lost his balance and fell heavily on the ground. The pain in his right leg was unbearable, so he could only stretch his legs as far as possible.

The Ajax players on the field quickly noticed and immediately called the referee.

When Nelson came over, Valente stretched out his hand innocently to pull Yang Yang up, and said indignantly at the same time: "Okay, stop pretending, I accidentally touched my body, why pretend to be so painful?"

If Yang Yang hadn't experienced it himself, he would have been fooled by Valente's innocent expression, but now he is very clear that he is really in pain, the muscles of his right leg were pushed firmly, the pain is really painful.

The Ajax players quickly rushed up. Although no one saw what happened in the blink of an eye, they still supported Yang Yang and put pressure on the referee, especially the captain Escuder, who pointed at Valente for a yellow card.

"Judging from the slow-motion playback, this is indeed a very bad card-eating action."

"Valente must have done it on purpose. Yang Yang was pushed so hard that he lost his balance and the pain was unbearable. Now even the stretcher and the team doctor have entered the field. This is definitely a tricky move."

"But Valente already has a yellow card in his body, and the referee probably didn't see the whole foul action just now, and he can't watch the slow-motion replay like we do, so he should be more cautious about whether to give a card."

"We saw that the players of the two teams were separated. The referee said it was a foul and gave Valente a stern warning, but he did not give a card. It should be said that this was a penalty that was not good for Ajax. This is indeed an action of giving a card."

"In particular, if Yang Yang is injured and leaves the field at this time, it will be a great blow to Ajax, because he has only played for a few minutes, and his performance is indeed good and very active. If he leaves the field due to injury, Ajax will not only break the right wing, but also waste a substitution."

"The team doctor and stretcher carried Yang Yang to the sidelines. I don't know how he is now. The head coach Ronald Koeman is obviously very nervous. I believe all Ajax fans are also worried."

……

Almost at the moment when Yang Yang was carried off the field, the entire Schalke Stadium suddenly fell silent.

All Ajax fans are concerned about Yang Yang's injury.

In the stands, Yang Yongqiang, his wife and Shen Ming's family were almost insane with anxiety, Wei Zheng and Wei Zhen were equally upset, even the girl sitting next to Shen Lifang, who had never met Yang Yang, felt the uneasiness and worry of all the Ajax fans and Yang Yang's relatives and friends around.

"You must be fine." When the girl looked at Yang Yang on the sidelines, concern was written in her eyes.
