God of Green

After Alkmaar completed the substitution and Jiang Xiaolin entered the field, the referee gave the Groningen defender who had tackled from behind a red card and sent him off the field as expected, and then awarded Alkmaar a penalty kick.

This penalty naturally caused boos and curses from Groningen fans, who shouted "black whistle" endlessly, and some people angrily threw things down from the stands, trying to hit the black whistle referee in their minds.

Fans don't care whether you are reasonable or not, as long as the penalty is not favorable to the team they support, they will boo and curse.

The so-called helping relatives and not helping the rational is a reflection of the mentality of most fans.

On the other side, Alkmaar fans cheered, both at the scene and in front of the TV.

They thought they were going to lose again and suffered a seven-game losing streak for the team, but they didn't expect that Ali actually got a penalty kick for the team near the end of the game.

Although Ali's injury was very distressing and sad, many fans were more happy to get this penalty kick.

As long as this penalty kick is scored, they can retreat from the Euroborg Stadium unscathed, get the first point in the second half of the season, and stop the team's losing streak.

Although there is no victory, it is worth celebrating to get a draw away from home, get the first point in the second half of the season, and stop the losing streak.

Therefore, it is no wonder that the fans of Alkmaar cheered loudly.

As for the No. 29 substitute Jiang Xiaolin who was replaced after Ali was injured, most people did not care.

For most Alkmaar fans, this is a strange player, and even most people are surprised that there is such a strange yellow man in their team.

Everyone thought that Jiang Xiaolin was just replaced by Van Gaal after Ali was injured.

However, what happened the next moment shocked all the fans of Alkmaar.

Because after Jiang Xiaolin came on the field, he ran into the penalty area and whispered a few words to Hamdaoyi, who had put the ball on the penalty spot and was about to take the penalty. Hamdaoyi actually left the penalty area and gave the right to take the penalty to the unfamiliar player No. 29 who had just come on the field.

Most of the Alkmaar fans were confused and even a little angry at this moment.

"What's going on?"

"Why did Hamdaoyi leave the penalty area? Not taking the penalty?"

"Is it this No. 29 who will take the penalty?"

"Who is this? I don't even know him, how could he take the penalty?"

"I must be dazzled."

"Is there no one? Is there no one in our team? How could a 16-year-old kid take such an important penalty?"

...

The TV commentators and guests who were commenting normally were also confused when they saw this scene, and they couldn't believe it.

"Oh, Groningen's defender tackled Alkmaar's striker Ali from behind."

"There is no doubt that this is a serious foul in the penalty area."

"Ali was injured and could not continue the game after being examined by the team doctor. Van Gaal replaced Ali with the only substitute striker, No. 29 Jiang."

"Jiang is a pure rookie player from China in Asia and has never played a professional game. Before the winter break, he played in the amateur league of the fourth level, and then was favored by Alkmaar's scouts and invited to Alkmaar for a trial."

"After passing the trial, Alkmaar signed a 4-year professional contract with Jiang during the winter break."

"However, given Jiang's age and the defect of never having professional game experience, he was demoted to the U19 youth team and participated in the Dutch U19 Youth Team First Division League with his teammates in the youth team."

"Data shows that Jiang performed very well in the youth team, scoring 13 goals in 4 games , and 2 assists, so less than a month after being sent to the youth team, Van Gaal recalled him to the first team and entered the 18-man squad for this game. "

"Now, Ali's injury provides Jiang with an opportunity to play as a substitute. "

"As the only substitute striker in Alkmaar's 18-man squad for this game, it is natural that Jiang will be substituted after Ali's injury, making Jiang complete his Eredivisie debut at the age of 16. "

"What luck, what an enviable young man. "

"Oh, as expected, the referee gave the Groningen defender who fouled the penalty a red card + penalty. "

"Alkmaar won a penalty in the stoppage time, and they have the hope of scoring another goal in the stoppage time and equalizing the score. "

"This penalty is expected to be taken by Alkmaar's top set-piece penalty taker, No. 10 Hamdaoyi. "

"As expected, Hamdaoyi is on the fieldHe picked up the ball and put it on the penalty spot, ready to take the penalty. The other players on both sides left the penalty area and waited for Hamdaoyi to take the penalty. "

Suddenly, the commentator raised his voice and shouted in surprise:

"Wait, what's going on?"

"What did No. 29 Jiang, who just came on the field, say to Hamdaoyi?"

"Hamdaoyi actually left the penalty area, and the 16-year-old Jiang stood behind the penalty spot."

"Is this penalty kick taken by Jiang?"

"Oh my God, is Van Gaal dizzy?"

"Although Jiang has a high scoring rate in the youth team, it is only a youth team game after all. There are too many players in the youth team who score a lot of goals but cannot gain a foothold in the first team. Van Gaal is desperate to try any possible means!"

"To put it another way, even if Jiang's shooting skills are indeed superb, this is the first time that the 16-year-old Jiang has entered the Eredivisie. Before that, he had never played a professional game in the Eredivisie, let alone the Eredivisie, or even in China. ”

“Making his Eredivisie debut is already a surprise and excitement for a 16-year-old boy, not to mention that this is an away game.”

“Asking Jiang to take the penalty at this time is like putting him on the fire, isn’t it?”

“Can he withstand the boos and curses of more than 16,000 Groningen fans? Can he take on the responsibility of equalizing the score for Alkmaar and stopping the losing streak?”

“It’s a joke, Van Gaal is too rash.”

“No matter how much he likes to promote and reuse young people, he shouldn’t use them like this, right?”

“I’m worried about Jiang!”

“Let’s see if Jiang, who just made his Eredivisie debut, can withstand the pressure and score this penalty! ”

……

Only Douglas, Cagle and other former youth team teammates of Jiang Xiaolin, as well as a very small number of fans who have followed the Heqingjia League, know how terrifying Jiang Xiaolin was in the Heqingjia League and how superb his shooting skills are.

Although they were surprised that Jiang Xiaolin was ordered to take a penalty kick as a substitute, they were not very surprised.

In fact, they thought that Jiang Xiaolin would definitely score the ball easily and perform the miracle of scoring with the first touch of the ball in his Eredivisie debut.
