Chapter 44 The goal given to you

"Sister, can you give you a gift when I go back?" Mark really wanted to say this to Sylvia now.

However, Mark couldn't say this in everyone's expectation, but Mark really didn't give anything to Sylvia.

"By the way, just do it." Mark suddenly had an idea and thought of a good idea.

"Sister, I want to give you a gift, but since this party is a surprise, my next gift will also be a surprise. However, this gift requires you to go to the arena in the next game to see it, which is prepared for you alone." Mark said mysteriously.

Now everyone is full of curiosity about Ajax's next game against Rosendal. They don't know what amazing move Mark will make at home to surprise Sylvia.

After saying that, Mark toasted everyone, thanking everyone for coming here to attend this swornship ceremony. Although everyone was full of curiosity, they all knew that since Mark wanted to play mysterious words, they would definitely say it. Even if everyone asked again, it would be useless. However, there were still a few people who couldn't help but secretly asked Mark what a surprise it was.

"I'll know then," but they were all blocked by Mark's words one by one and went back.

After the party parted, Mark bid farewell to Van der Fate and Sylvia and called Momo and asked her to drive the car back to her home.

Now Mark doesn’t have a driver’s license, so he can only let Momo do it. Fortunately, Momo has already obtained a driver’s license in China, so now in the Netherlands, you only need to change your driver’s license in China to the local transportation department with the driver’s license he obtained in China.

"Mark seems you really need to get a driver's license," Momo said to Mark beside him while driving: "Although you don't seem to need it now, the Netherlands is not the end of your career, but a ***. You also need to play football in the mainstream leagues. Four major leagues like Germany, England, Italy, and Spain are the mainstream of the football world."

Mark listened to Momo's words and found it very reasonable. The four major leagues are the mainstream of the European League, and the European League is the mainstream of the World League. Although they all claim to the five major leagues, just like the Ligue 1 and the Eredivisie, they are all considered second-rate leagues in Europe. If they weren't for the existence of their godfather, they would have been tragic.

Mark now decided that if he had time, he must learn the driving skills himself. Although it is easy to be his own driver, it is sometimes not very convenient.

It was soon April 18th, the 30th round of the Eredivisie League, Ajax played against Rosendal at home.

Rosendal, also known as Rosinda, has become the most subtle club in the Dutch Football League. That is because their city is very small and their stadium only has 5,000 seats. Due to their city, there are not many fans who come to cheer for them away. It should be said that almost no one comes to cheer for the team away.

Before this game, the two teams ranked first in Ajax now, and Rosendal ranked 1st with 39 points. It can be said that the strength of the two teams is so different from each other in terms of the rankings of the two teams. Rosendal scored one point in this game is their goal.

However, Ajax is now holding a breath in his heart because Feyenoord equalized the score at the last moment of the last game, and the current anger is naturally about to vent Rosendal.

Ajax's starting lineup has made some adjustments today. Since Ibrahimovic was sent off by the referee in the last game by the referee, and he was rude to the referee and was punished two additional games after the game, Ibrahimovic will not appear in Ajax's lineup within three games.

And even if Ibrahimovic was not suspended, he would definitely not have appeared in this game, because Mark broke the bridge of his nose after punching Ibrahimovic in the locker room, so the time for these three games was exactly the time for Ibrahimovic to recover from his injury.

Ibrahimovic is now watching Ajax's game in the team's stands. After being taught a lesson by Mark, he became much more honest all of a sudden. However, although he seemed honest on the surface, he actually asked his agent to help him find a team that could be transferred. It seems that Mark's punch has a big blow to him, and he is already afraid of playing football with Mark.

Head coach Koeman was not punished for violence in the locker room during the last halftime break because the main reason for that incident was that Ibrahimovic took action first, and almost all the players were on Mark's side. Koeman was not a fool, and he didn't want to punish Mark in the rage. He didn't want to punish Mark at first, and he still liked Mark very much. Often, some head coaches who have played football like some players who are very similar to their youth, and Koeman was no exception.

Now that Ibrahimovic has been suspended, there will naturally be someone who will replace him at the center. This person is Belgian scorer Wang Songk, who has been tragic since the transfer to Ajax. Songk has been suppressed by Ibrahimovic on the bench since he transferred to Ajax. Now he is taking advantage of the opportunity that Ibrahimovic has not been able to play recently to find his form and let people re-understand the style of the Scorer King of the A-League.

As for Ajax's other positions, there has not been much change. The only change left is that Koeman sent the right back Griguera, who had stronger attack ability, to replace Trabelsi, who had a balanced offense and defense.

The entire Ajax home court is now full. Since Ajax is now leading the standings, almost all Ajax home games are full recently. Now the tickets are hard to get.

Sylvia is now sitting on the court to cheer for Mark and Van der Fate. There are also some friends who participated in the swornship ceremony between Mark and Sylvia that day. These people are also curious about how Mark will use to present a big gift to Sylvia.

As for how everyone gets the tickets, it is not a problem at all. Don’t forget that Mark and Van der Fate are both members of the Ajax first team. The players will get some tickets in each home game, which are all for the players’ wives and friends. Therefore, Mark and Van der Fate will naturally get some tickets through their relationship and share them with everyone.

"swan...!!" After the players from both sides entered the court, the whole stadium was shouting Mark's nickname. Now Mark has become the new favorite of Ajax fans. Everyone likes this player from Asia very much. Moreover, Mark has just scored two goals at home in their old rival Feyenoord. If it weren't for the conservative tactics, Ajax won the game in the end, wouldn't it be a dream.

The game began soon, and the players from both sides made a tentative attack and then the game entered the offensive rhythm of Ajax.

In fact, this is also very normal. After all, Rosendal's strength is not as strong as Ajax, so they also clearly used the defensive counterattack tactic in this game.

Rosendal's two midfielders, Dutchman Hetog and Nigerian Olishe, are both very practical engineer-type midfielders, so after the opening, they tried hard to intercept Ajax's midfield attack. Their tactical purpose is very clear, that is, to cut off the connection between the midfield engine Van der Fate and the Ajax forward. Although Van der Fate can control the football at his feet, he still has no good pass opportunities.

Van der Fate is more of a return pass, which shows that the defense of these two players is fierce and successful. Rosendal was also very happy when he saw the performance of the two players, because his tactics of defense against Ajax's midfield before the game were successful.

Rosendal's head coach did a lot of homework before the game to study Ajax's tactical play. He found that although Van der Fate was a tie midfielder in Ajax's lineup, his position was closer to the front midfielder, and then two midfielders with strong defensive capabilities in the back were protecting. This tactic ensured that Ajax could not easily concede the ball in his offensive system.

So Rosendal's head coach made a targeted defense, that is, two engineer-type midfielders should defend Vanderfate alone. As long as Vanderfate's offensive rhythm is disrupted, it will definitely interfere with Ajax's offense. Only in this way can one get the opportunity to defeat Ajax.

Ajax's weakness lies in their formation of the three midfielders. After all, there are too few people. Although two wingers can retreat to the midfield, the two wingers Babel and Pinal are not very strong in defense, so Ajax and others are still very afraid of the meat grinder midfielder. After all, the football game is a game of restraint and anti-restraint.

Rosendal's head coach now has to restrain Ajax's organizational core. Although Ajax's forward line still has Ibrahimovic as a supporter, Rosendal's team is very lucky. Ibrahimovic applied for a red card in the last game and was sent off by himself. Now Sonk, who is substituted for Ibrahimovic, is simply a parallel striker. His height of 1.70 meters and 70 meters has no chance to be mentioned among a group of muscle men in Rosendal's interior.

"Haha, let's see how you attack." Coach Rosendal was a little proud and said to himself on the coach's seat.

But what happened next quickly made him misleading.

In the 20th minute, Van der Fate was blocked by Rosendal's midfield and was forced to pass it back again. The football happened to be passed to Mark's feet. After Mark got the ball, he passed it directly to the right winger Pinal and then ran forward. Pinal was from a midfielder after all, and although he played the right winger, he was still willing to appear in the middle for more time.

When Pinal dribbled the ball into the middle, he naturally took away the players who defended him. Rosendal's current defensive power on the right was a little empty. Ajax's right-back Grigra rushed directly to the baseline. Pinal saw the current and Grigra who was pressing up and then passed it to Grigra with a diagonal pass.

Now Grigra didn't slow down and ran towards Rosendal's baseline. Rosendal's central defender just came up to prepare for the placement, but at this time Grigra passed the ball.

Mark is now rushing into the penalty area, but when Mark saw Griguera passing the ball, he felt that the ball should be passed outside the penalty area, so Mark turned around and ran outside the penalty area. As expected, Griguera's pass this time was passed outside the penalty area.

Moreover, because Mark rushed into the penalty area just now, he directly led two Rosendal's defensive players to defend him. After all, Mark had staged many good shots in the back row, so Rosendal's players had to pay attention to him.

At this time, Mark suddenly ran out of the penalty area and no defenders were around him to defend him. After Mark received the football with his chest, he looked at the positions of the players in the penalty area. At this time, at least five players in the penalty area were defending, and Ajax's forward Songk was drowned like a chick under the defense of these players.

It was impossible for Mark to pass the ball in the penalty area. At this time, Mark saw that Rosendal's players were already rushing towards him. If Mark didn't shoot, there would be no chance, so Mark directly shot.

Mark shot the first time the ball rolled in. The football flew directly to the lower right corner of Rosendal's goal with a faint arc. After hard training, Mark's shooting skills have also been significantly improved. At least Mark's long shot can basically hit the goal range.

Moreover, because Mark's shooting power is very strong, ordinary goalkeepers dare not catch the ball directly. As long as Mark hits the football within the goal range, it either scores or is hit by the goalkeeper. Moreover, the probability of football entering the goal is very high. However, one regret is that Mark often cannot shoot the football within the goal range in order to pursue an angle, so this aspect still needs to be improved.

After seeing Mark's rolling ball, the goalkeeper immediately fell to the ground and tried to save Mark's shot. However, it was obvious that Rosendal's goalkeeper's arm was not long enough. If his arm could be ten centimeters longer, maybe he could really save the football this time, but this time he did not jump into the football. The football rolled directly into the net against the goal post on the inside of the goal.

"goooooooooooooooooooooooa!!! Mark scored with a strong and long shot. The angle of the shot this time was too tricky, and the goalkeeper could only sigh at the ball." The commentator on the scene shouted excitedly.

"I've entered, it's so beautiful." Wang Bing, a commentator of Liaoning TV, also shouted excitedly: "Even if you watch this goal ten thousand times, you won't be bored."

"Wait, let's see what Mark is doing." Wang Bing discovered Mark lifting the jersey on his chest as the broadcast camera.

It turned out that after Mark scored the goal, he ran directly to Sylvia's stands and lifted up his jersey and revealed the words on the vest inside. The vest on Mark's chest said, "A goal is for you, my sister, this is a belated gift."

When a sharp-eyed fan saw the words on Mark's vest, he was also looking for where Mark's sister was. They thought Mark's sister must be a Chinese talent, but after looking at it, he did not find a Chinese figure who looked similar to Mark.

Of course, Sylvia saw Mark's performance. She didn't care whether Mark could see it or not and directly raised two thumbs to Mark to express her appreciation for Mark's wonderful performance just now.

"Mark, it turns out that this is your gift," Van der Fate ran over and jumped directly on him and said.

"It's not over yet, you can watch it." Mark said to Van der Fate without looking back, then raised his arms and celebrated the goal with the fans.

"swan...!!" The entire stadium is now shouting Mark's nickname, and the Amsterdam Arena has reached its first climax for a moment.

Rosendal's head coach was so angry that he kicked over the mineral water bottle and scolded: "What are you doing? Can't you defend an Asian player so many people? Do you know if you let your energy concentrate before the game?"

These Rosendal's players were also very unfair when they heard the head coach shouting on the sidelines. They had done what they could do, but Mark's start speed was too fast, so they had no ability to keep up with Mark's footsteps, so this was not a complaint from Rosendal's players on the court. This was originally a gap in strength.

"So this is a gift, I've guessed it," said the blonde beside Sylvia, the bold woman who asked Mark for his autograph at the party.

"Haha, I'm already very happy like this," Sylvia said to the bold and upright girl.

"Mark is not finished yet, does it mean that you have any other tricks next?" After the celebration, Van der Fate asked next to Mark. He was curious about what tricks Mark would do next, but the thing that made Van der Fate curious about the most was why Mark knew that he would score goals next, because only goals can have the right to celebrate. The broadcasting camera will not give you a player who has no goals.

"You will know then." Mark smiled mysteriously. He did not tell Van der Fate what celebration would be next, which made Van der Fate feel even more curious.
