Chapter 45 The First League Game

Two days after Jiang Mu coached Alkmaar's first team, the first league match against Zwolle started.

According to the special competition system of the Dutch league, there is only one place for direct promotion in the Dutch second division. Alkmaar, who is 112 points behind No. 1 with only seven games left, should actually be the easiest. No matter how badly you play in the future, you will have the opportunity to participate in the play-offs after the league ends, and you can completely recharge your batteries for the play-offs.

But the current Alkmaar team is equally nervous, even more nervous than Zwolle, who is competing for No.1 in the final stage, because their new head coach Jiang Mu has already announced to the media that he will win all the remaining games, and then Expect a miracle to happen.

Regardless of whether Jiang Mu is shouting slogans or really wants to do it, for the sake of face and to consolidate his authority, he must win this game.

And Zwolle has never won No.1 in any stage before. They must now fight for the place in the play-offs. This is the second game of the last stage. They have won one game before and are trying to take advantage of the fire. Take down Alkmaar, who is strong but in poor condition.

This is the advantage of the Dutch League. Although the competition system is complicated and cumbersome, even in the final stage, each team has its own goals. Even the last one has the hope of advancing to the Dutch League. There will never be other leagues that fail to work. Contribute to the phenomenon of perfunctory competition.

This game was held at the De Hoult Stadium in Alkmaar. For Alkmaar, who has internal and external troubles, and Jiang Mu, who has just taken office, this is the only favorable condition, because before the game, the media broke out that Alkmaar had a starting problem. , The conflict in the locker room appeared again.

"Martens will not start. He has a little physical problem, but he may come off the bench at some point." Before the match against Zwolle, Jiang Mu said at the pre-match press conference.

However, according to the Dutch "International Football", Martens, the absolute main force of the original team, claimed that he had no physical problems. Si thought it was a humiliation for him to let the 17-year-old Didier start and let himself be a substitute. He would rather go to the second team than play as a substitute.

But then the team's manager, Schelinga, refuted the rumors on the "Holland Chinese International" TV station, saying that Martens was not bombarding the head coach Jiang Mu, he just hoped to start, the team was in trouble, and he wanted to do his best for the team. One effort.

Everyone knows that refusing rumors is mostly tantamount to telling the truth. With the lazy and free personality of the Dutch, Martens can definitely say what he said. Under normal circumstances, the head coach will pretend to be deaf and dumb, so as not to affect the morale of the team. After the game, he settled accounts with the players, but Jiang Mu completely ignored this. He held a press conference immediately at night, sent Martens directly to the second team, and promoted a second team player to the first team to play as a substitute.

The chaos in the locker room in Alkmaar naturally made the Zwolle people happy. Their head coach Fernando said before the game that he did not want to talk about the strife in Alkmaar's locker room, and he did not think that this infighting would have much effect on the result of the game. However, the decisive factor is the strength on paper.But when the topic changed, Fernando said that Zwolle's locker room was very united, and it was this unity that allowed them to beat the mighty Cambull in the last game, and now they are fighting for a play-off spot, winning Ark Mal is a must.

On the morning of the match day, the atmosphere at the De Hoult Stadium was very depressing. Jiang Mu drove away the old captain Maher within two days after taking office, released the absolute main player Martens, and put four second-rounders in the starting lineup. This kind of behavior made the old players very dissatisfied. Maher, who announced an indefinite leave, called Jiang Mu's approach "children's nonsense."

But Jiang Mu doesn't think that his iron-fisted army is nonsense. He played in the league two days after he took office, and he still has to win. In a short period of time, the players have to obey completely.

The training in the morning was mainly group confrontation, with the main starters as a group, and the substitutes as a group with other players. Jiang Mu did not do such tricks as swapping numbers. The players in his hands are stronger than his opponents, and their skills The tactical play is unknown to the opponent, and he can completely defeat the Zwolle team with dignified tactics.

Kevin Dirk, who will be playing in the professional league for the first time, is very excited. He was so excited that he didn't sleep well in the middle of the night. He relied on counting sheep and taking sleeping pills to fall asleep. He also performed extremely actively in today's training game, running back and forth, fighting With a shovel, he is a striker who is diligent and makes his defenders a little jealous.

Altidore, who has just been transferred from the second team, is not only the captain, but also the core midfielder who controls the team's offensive and defensive rhythm. He has always been a player of the first team, and his skills are also the best in Alkmaar. Players are also more convinced of him.He has become the bond of cooperation and understanding between old and new players on the court, and he is also the conductor and executor of Jiang Mu's tactics.

The old players of the first team keep their positions in the midfield. Jiang Mu attaches great importance to defense. His football thinking comes from the grandson of China: first be invincible, and then look for opportunities to defeat the enemy.The old players cooperated tacitly and had rich experience. Jiang Mu didn't want to take the risk of breaking up the back line and then regrouping.

Although Jiang Mu has only been coaching for two days, the players of the first team are no strangers to Zhang Mu's tactics. When they played in the Holland Cup a year ago, Van Dijk led the team to study Jiang Mu's tactics. Coaching the second team of Alkmaar, the players of the first team can watch the training of the players of the second team every day, and then played a warm-up match. It can be said that the players of the first team have no worse understanding of Jiang Mu's tactics than the players of the second team. It's just practice.

After the training in the morning, the players did not go home, and they ate together in the restaurant of the stadium. This is Jiang Mu's new rule. The day and night before the game must be spent in the team. The purpose is to let the players get familiar with each other. To become friends, many exquisite cooperation on the court comes from tacit understanding, but not all of this tacit understanding comes from training.

After lunch, Jiang Mu and the coaching staff held the last team affairs meeting before the war in the conference hall on the second floor. At the meeting, Jiang Mu analyzed the Zwolle team's style of play as a whole in the form of video, pointing out their three lines The most threatening player, while analyzing the referee Bacal's enforcement style.

"Chang'e No. [-]" recorded Bakar's ten league games and came to an analysis conclusion. He has the habit of giving out red cards and yellow cards, the scale of fouls and physical contact, and what kind of players Bakar likes. The very detailed description has benefited the players a lot. The fitness coach Bodden and the other three were also shocked by Jiang Mu's thoughtful thinking. They once again believed that Van Dijk's loss to Jiang Mu was not accidental.

In the end, Jiang Mu emphasized three more points, "...First, reduce turnovers. A team with a turnover rate no higher than 15 to 18 percentage points is invincible. No matter what level of team you are, you can Until the total error rate is controlled within 20.00%, you will be able to remain unbeaten in a game.

Second, if you have physical problems, you should ask for a replacement in time, and never force yourself. Physical fitness is the guarantee of all skills and tactics. Without physical fitness, there is nothing, and spirit cannot solve all problems.

Third, stay excited and strong whether in front of the opponent's goal or in front of your own goal. Don't just like to score goals. In my team, preventing the opponent from a must-scoring goal is equivalent to scoring a goal. "

Jiang Mu's tactical concept and game concept are very novel, both scientific and humane, and simple and easy to understand. Many old players have changed a lot of prejudice against Jiang Mu in Jiang Mu's speech.

The game started at three o'clock in the afternoon. Due to Jiang Mu's miraculous performance before, the fans of Alkmaar were full of expectations for this game, and they came to the stadium early. It turns out that Alkmaar has three or two thousand fans in a game. The De Hoult Stadium, which can accommodate 8000 people, is always empty, but today's De Hoult Stadium was filled with more than 5000 fans at around two o'clock, and fans are still pouring into the stadium.

By the time the game started, the number of fans at the De Hoult Stadium had reached [-], and the on-site commentator said excitedly: "This is the first time in five years that the number of fans at the De Hoult Stadium has exceeded [-]. The appeal of Alkmaar is unparalleled, and many non-fans came to watch the game. According to this popularity, if Alkmaar enters the Eredivisie, we will have to change to a big new stadium."

When the on-site commentator said this, Alkmaar's boss Dierk also came to the stadium. There is no box at the De Hoult Stadium, so he sat among the fans with the club manager Nelson and his daughter Schrinja and listened to the commentary. Dirk said to Nelson with a smile: "If I can enter the Eredivisie, I will invest in building a beautiful new stadium."

Siherinja looked at Jiang Mu who was standing on the sidelines directing, and said: "We will definitely enter the Eredivisie, I believe in Jiang Mu."

Nelson laughed and said, "I believe him too, although he ran away in anger at the old captain Maher."

"He can't suppress these old players if he doesn't attack Maher. Dierke looked at the fans who kept shouting for Jiang Mu, and the banner-like banners raised by Chinese fans, and sighed: "This Chinese guy is very popular. Really prosperous, even I am a little jealous. "

"This is called an idol-level coach." Sihelinjia was very proud of her vision, and when she talked about Jiang Mu, she looked proud.

"Hurry up, look, it's single-handed..."

Nelson suddenly stood up excitedly, staring at the court.

Scheringa and Dirk also noticed the changes on the court at the same time, and their eyes were all on the Alkmaar player running in front of the Zwolle defender on the court.
