On the morning of March 20, on the shore of Lake Odkerk.

Yang Yang, Maxwell and other teammates ran with the ball, talking and laughing all the way.

This has become a unique landscape on the banks of Lake Odkerk.

Occasionally, it attracts the pursuit of nearby residents and fans, and sometimes someone will even follow them to run.

But no one will affect them.

Dutch fans have a very high awareness of this.

After running around the lake for three times, when she returned to the intersection of the town, Yang Yang met an old acquaintance.

Michel van der Sma, a reporter from the Dutch Telegraph.

Yang Yang still remembers that when he first met Vanderzma three years ago, Vanderzma was still starting a business and guarding his own small website to collect news. But now, the Dutch website has gone bankrupt, but he has become a well-known reporter for the Dutch Telegraph.

Every time he saw him, Yang Yang would smile and shout, "Hello, big reporter."

"Oh, please." Vanderzma always smiled bitterly and held his glasses, "You make me dare not appear in front of you again in the future, do you know?"

Although he didn't say it himself, he knew that he was able to join the Dutch Telegraph because he was relying on Yang Yang's news.

Later, he gradually became famous in the Telegraph, and many times it was because he had a good relationship with Yang Yang, and he was able to get some private interviews and learn some inside information.

This gave him a more advantage than other media reporters.

He still remembers that Yang Yang once said that they met in a small way, and they were different from others.

"Ha, that's right. I don't want to see you recently." Yang Yang said with a smile.

As he said that, he bent down and untied the sandbag wrapped around his legs and waist.

This is the sandbag specially prepared for him by Winston Bogard. Originally, he only had his legs, but later he even wrapped his waist around him, so he used it when he practiced more.

He handed the untied sandbag to Fermalen, and Yang Yang greeted his teammates and said goodbye, "I'll buy breakfast."

Walking all the way toward the breakfast shop on the corner of the street, Vanderzma immediately followed.

"Hey, let's talk a few words."

Yang Yang shook his head, "I know what you are going to ask."

"I haven't even asked," Vanderzma said depressedly.

Yang Yang curled his lips, "As soon as you appeared, I guessed it."

Vanderzma shrugged, this is a smart guy who can't hide anything from him.

...

Yesterday afternoon, Ajax ushered in the 29th round of the Eredivisie, challenging Groningen away.

Groningen's Euroburg Stadium can be regarded as the prison of the strong team this season. Eindhoven, Feyenoord and Alkmaar all failed here. If Groningen had not had his poor away record, the team's ranking would have improved a lot.

But Ajax is obviously not another team.

In the 13th minute of the first half, Groningen took the lead with a penalty kick.

But just four minutes later, Yang Yang scored a game for Ajax and tied the score.

Afterwards, Groningen continued to defend stubbornly.

After the two sides changed sides and fought again in the second half, Ajax made a mistake at the beginning of the defense and was led by his opponent.

This time it was not until the 68th minute that Yang Yang tied the score again.

After that, both sides never scored again.

...

For this game, the Dutch media generally gave Ajax a low evaluation.

The main problem is on the back line.

This is the sadness of the small team.

The average age is only 22 years old, which is too young, which is better on the offensive end. Young players such as Yang Yang and Sneider are known for their stable performance, but there are many problems on the defensive end.

Fermulen was only twenty years old, Vlaal was twenty-one, and Hetinga was the oldest, twenty-two.

If Ajax's three central defenders were put into the four major leagues, they could only be considered rookies, but Ajax is already the backbone who stands alone.

In addition, Ajax has always attached great importance to the central defender's shot, which inevitably leads to many problems such as the team's high defense and the players' physical confrontation.

The strong attack and weak defense have always been the crux of Ajax.

However, the offense is too sharp this season, and the defense becomes more obvious.

Of course, Ajax is not without a time when his defense improves. For example, in the second half of last season, the team's defense was good, but the offensive performance was not good, so he could only rely on Yang Yang to drag it alone. This is obviously inappropriate, and the fans are not satisfied.

In the Netherlands, professional football is a show that pleases fans.

Win or lose is not very important, but it must be good-looking.

Therefore, offensive football is the most highly praised style of play in the Netherlands.

Contrary to Ajax's defense, Yang Yang received unanimous praise from the media after the game.

This game staged a double score. His Eredivisie scored 37 goals this season, catching up with Ajax's legend Van Basten and tied for Ajax's second most goals in a single season in history.

But there are five rounds left in the league, and everyone is looking forward to seeing Yang Yang continue to score goals.

This is also the reason why Van der Sma came to him early this morning.

...

"I've told you many times that Van Basten is a legend, an irreplaceable legend."

"I know."

"He scored 37 goals in the Eredivisie League at his heyday."

"It's hard to say. You both scored 37 goals in twenty-six rounds, but you're two years younger than him."

"How do I say you will understand?"

"I understand without saying that he is your idol."

At the entrance of the breakfast shop, Yang Yang looked at Vanderthma speechlessly, nodded, "It's good that you know."

"I just want to know, what exactly do you think now?"

"What's the idea?"

"Goals, you're five goals away from Groot, six goals away from Dylan, and there are five rounds left in the league..."

When Van der Sma said this, his eyes were full of expectations, and he was waiting for Yang Yang to say a few exciting remarks, and then he could make a job.

Thirty-seven goals, this is definitely a shocking goal number.

No one has reached this level for many years in the Eredivisie League.

"I tell you, this is not only what we all expect from you, but also from Van Basten," Van der Sma persuaded.

Yang Yang couldn't help but remember the phone call Van Basten had called him.

On the phone, Van Basten told Yang Yang about his experience that season.

Ajax's offense was really strong that season, even stronger than this season. Van Basten scored 34 goals in the first twenty-two rounds of the league, which was even better than Yang Yang.

Among them, he only had two hat tricks, but he scored five times twice. What's more serious is that he scored five goals in one game and six goals in one game, which kept his whole form better than ever.

But just after the twenty-two rounds, he was injured, absent for six games, and scored three more goals after returning, but his condition could no longer be found, and he was injured again in the last two rounds and was absent.

It can be said that Van Basten was extremely close to a historical legend that season, but due to injuries, he was unable to move forward in the end.

Even so, he is still a legendary figure of Ajax, but this is still a great regret in his career.

His regret was not because he didn't work hard, but because he could have done better and achieved even better results, but he missed it because of his injury.

In the phone call he called Yang Yang, Van Basten told him that he hoped Yang Yang could continue his efforts and not leave any regrets!

"I believe you can definitely surpass me!"

Of course, Yang Yang would not tell about Van Basten's communication with him, although his relationship with Van der Sma is also good.

The two walked into the breakfast shop, and the breakfast shop owner had already prepared it, just like usual.

A Dutch reporter took out his wallet and asked to pay, but was blocked by the breakfast shop owner and came back.

"No, no, he doesn't need to eat in my shop in the future." The breakfast shop owner said with a smile.

Vanderzma was stunned. Is there anything so good to eat?

"But seriously, Yang, you must continue to work hard. I have cut all the newspapers from this morning."

As he said that, the breakfast shop owner took a hard photo of his thick newspaper clippings.

"It's already a big book. Someone asked me to buy it yesterday. You said, can I sell it?"

Yang Yang laughed, "That must be the other party's price has been lower?"

"Nonsense, I changed my mind. I want to leave this book to my son to let them know that I am chasing you all the way and watching you score goals. I have saved all the tickets for this season as a souvenir."
