Chapter 457 The strong rise of Newcastle's two major goods 4

Just as Van Basten is still scratching his new board, Newcastle has used the right to organize an attack after the kick-off.

At this time, football had come to Shepchenko's feet.

"... Shepchenko took the ball on the right side, and the 20-year-old Ajax rookie Ismail Asati defended him. Let's see how Shepchenko dealt with it... Oh, beautiful spike, simple and practical, too fast... Shepchenko easily got rid of Asati!"

Because I didn't expect that the Ukrainian nuclear warhead would use such a fast speed, I easily got rid of Asati's defense in the first time, so that there was a short vacuum in Ajax's original tight defense... And it was this precious moment that gave Shepchenko enough time to observe his teammates' running position. After that, he passed the ball.

Two or three seconds later, the football drew a pleasing white semi-ellipse on the grass and came to the foot of Juan Mata, who had swam to the middle road at any time, while Shepchenko himself did not stop at all and continued to run down the side road... Because in his brain, there was a familiar and The strange feeling was constantly telling Shepchenko: Run down, don't stop, run, keep running... And when he ran near the edge of Ajax's penalty area, the magical effect came out, and a white light flashed in front of him... Football is coming!

It's Juan Mata, who used his unparalleled personal ability to accurately send the football from the air of Ajax's 'human wall'.

This is a tip to the tip, just over the top of the head of the two central defenders and fall between Shepchenko and the goalkeeper Stellenburg... "... Juan Mata... Incredible pass, piercing Ajax's defense line... Single knife!! Is it offside? The sideline did not raise the flag, not offside!!! Shepchenko is single-handed! Opportunity, this is Newcastle's once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!!"

St. James became restless, and the fans involuntarily jumped up from their seats... Will this ball be scored?

On the field.

Shepchenko, who was running, did not choose to stop the ball, but directly used high-speed running to swing his legs and shoot!

Bang!

White lightning reappears!

In the loud sound, the Ajax goalkeeper could only subconsciously protect his 'handsome face'. The football was like a spinning fireball, flying over his head with a scorching breath... "Damn it, I lost the ball..." Skrenberg was shocked.

As the captain of Ajax, Stellenborg, who has experienced the battlefield, deeply understands that if Shepchenko scores a goal in such an exciting way at this time, the consequences will be unimaginable - Newcastle's morale, which was hard to be suppressed by Suarez's goal, is likely to be because A goal burned again, burning Ajax to ashes... But at this time... "Sheppchenko!! ...Shoot!! This goal scored... Oh? How is it possible? Unexpectedly, you didn't enter? Such a good opportunity? ...God, Shepchenko shot the football away. He exerted too much force and did not suppress the good angle..."

On the commentary, Sester couldn't help pounding his chest with regret: "Alas, Shepchenko really wants to score too much. In the case of Crespo's injury, he finally got the starting opportunity, but he missed the opportunity because he wanted to make contributions too much... This is really fast. !!"

The exact opposite of Sester is the Dutch commentator Nigel Van Bloom. The uncle can't wait to wrap a red silk girl around his waist - "Oh? This ball didn't score... Hahaha, I didn't score!! Shepchenko proved his true nature... It was almost empty, but he raised the football to the third-floor stand... In the face of such an opportunity, if it were either Henritral or Suarez, there would be 11 and 10,000 ways to send the football to the goal... Wow, Newcastle and Ah Compared with Jax, the biggest weakness is that they lack a really powerful super shooter..."

... After shooting the goal, Shepchenko looked at the football wiping the goal and roaring away. He couldn't believe his eyes... "This, how could it be like this?"

At this time, he was even able to imagine the impending boos of St. James. In the past month, every opportunity he wasted was booed by Newcastle fans... However, the boos did not sound.

What sounded was applause!

"...Hey, Andre, beautiful shot! It's just a little bit. Don't worry, I'll pass the ball to you.

Juan Mata appeared behind Shepchenko and patted him on the shoulder: "However, don't be so nervous next time. I believe you will score a goal, because the boss said that you are a natural striker!"

"Head?"

Shepchenko couldn't help looking at the sidelines.

Of course, he knows who the 'boss' in Mata's mouth refers to. Unlike in AC Milan and Chelsea, Newcastle players call their head coach as the boss, not the boss or gentleman, or some other serious words... Shepchenko saw that the black figure at this moment was turning. The fans incited the stands to give more cheers and applause, and seemed to sense Shepchenko's eyes. The back suddenly turned around and gave a thumbs-up to Shepchenko on the court... Although the distance was far away, the huge sound of cheers and applause of the fans has even made Shepchenko He couldn't hear his own words... But strangely, he could clearly hear what the figure on the sidelines said. He was saying, "You are a natural shooter, you are the greatest shooter, you can do it..."

At this moment, when Juan Mata, the 'solder', stood beside him and said this, when Shepchenko saw the scene on the sidelines, the Ukrainian striker suddenly felt an unprecedented relaxation in his heart.

In the past three years, at Stamford Bridge, in San Siro, he was eager to prove himself in front of the fans. It was an invisible pressure. The huge reputation and incompatible performance always made him betray the media and fans with the label of sloofy and depravity. The efforts again and again were more turbulent. At the beginning of the hope of joining Newcastle, the situation did not seem to have changed much. The effort and pressure were like a pair of 'seven generations of grudges', still entangled in his life... The goal scored against West Bromwich Albion in the last game made Shevchenko see The dawn of hope, and the mistake of shooting just now made him faintly see the signs of broken dreams when he raised hope... However, at this moment, the black figure on the side of the field, with a simple gesture, suddenly made him feel extremely relaxed, a kind of relaxation that has never been seen in three years!

Forced - The whistle sounded, and Ajax goalkeeper Stecklenburg opened the goal.

Shepchenko turned around and ran to the center of the court.

No one knows what kind of struggle and transformation the Ukrainian striker has experienced in this short few seconds... The goal of Stecklenburg's goal fell down after crossing more than half of the court. The 'hunter' Hunter' Huntal was about to unload the ball, and a huge pass from behind him. Power, a shadow covered his head, and the football was pushed out... "Beautiful!"

Sister screamed: "Steven Taylor boldly inserted out of the penalty area and pushed the football out..."

The football fell at the feet of Arshavin.

At this moment, Newcastle's midfield began to surge towards Ajax's goal like a flood... [Tsar] Arshavin showed a small range of skills that was not inferior to Juan Mata. After wearing a butterfly-like true and fake action, he passed two defensive balls on the left side of Ajax. Member, in a blink of an eye, I came to the upper left corner of the penalty area... And in the middle, Owen and Shepchenko have followed up one after another.

On the right side, Juan Mata also contained a defensive player from Ajax... Another offensive opportunity!

"... four to four in the front court! Another great opportunity. It's time for Arshavin to pass the ball!" Excited and nervous, Sester couldn't help shivering all over.

However, the [Tsar] on the court did not pass the ball, but made a cross to the middle of the penalty area. Ajax's left defender Gusence did not dare to neglect and immediately crossed his leg to intercept, but when he made an action, he wanted to slap himself twice... Because he was cheated!

At the moment when he came out, Arshavin suddenly changed his direction in a staggering place. All of a sudden, he hit the football, and suddenly no longer cut inward, but roared down the side road... Ajax's left road was suddenly empty!

Now, the two central defenders had to share their energy to support the sidelines, so when Arshavin galloped near the bottom line, the route that continued to the middle road was finally blocked... "Haha, he's finished!"

Dutch commentator Nigel van Bloom shouted excitedly.

However, soon Van Bloom couldn't get excited. He sobbed in shock: "Oh, God!! Cunning Russian, he passed the ball... dangerous ah ah ah ah..."

Arshavin spreads football.

This is an inverted triangle mowing pass. Ajax's two central defenders are so fierce that they can only watch the football roll gently at their feet less than three or four centimeters, but they can't make even a little effective block because of their habitual surnames... The football came to Owen's feet. .

A once-in-a-lifetime shooting opportunity, no one blocked in front of him, Owen's right foot has been swinging, which is the shooting posture.

St. James cheered... However, at this time, Ajax's back gabre rushed out of the slash with a strong wind and blocked it with a very critical fall, just blocking Owen's shooting line... Shot? The best opportunity has been lost.

"Okay..."

Dutch commentator Nigel van Bloom shouted again.

But like last time, his face immediately collapsed again.

Because Owen did not shoot, the right foot that had been raised was still raised high and cleverly leaked... The football was like a magnetic levitation train through the tunnel, continuing to gallop backwards gracefully. Its direction was... Shepchenko!

On the sidelines, Ajax coach Van Basten's heart beat wildly. At this moment, he smelled a strong smell of danger, but at this time, there was nothing anyone could do... This time, in the face of a close opportunity, Shepchenko stopped the football with an unusual calm, and then raised his foot gently. A push... There is no suspense!

Football rolled openly into Ajax's goal.

After from Shepchenko's feet to the goal line, within this short but long 8-yard distance, the football did not encounter any of Ajax's player's block... Because Arshavin's breakthrough helped Shepchenko attract the central defender, and Owen's fake shot helped Shepchenko deceive the goalkeeper. Attention and center of gravity... Shepchenko is facing an empty door.

"...Owen's chance... Oh, he missed the football, and behind it is... Shepchenko!! STOP THE BALL... she men... GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!! This goal is scored! I'm in, I'm really in this time!!"

Sester almost jumped on the table, and there was a tsunami-like cheer in his ear. He had to shout loudly, otherwise he couldn't hear what he was saying at all - "Sheppchenko, scored! Less than 4 minutes after Ajax scored, Newcastle pulled the score back. Shepchenko scored his second goal after joining Newcastle. He set off a counterattack of the Magpie Legion... And Dutch commentator Nigel Van Bloom also jumped, but unlike Sester, he was because of his fec. Annoyed - "This... Shepchenko... He actually scored a goal?? This is really luck. In the face of such an empty goal opportunity, the defenders of the Ajax reserve team can score the ball... However, the Newcastles are happy too early. This is just a goal that has nothing to do with the overall situation. Newcastle still needs to score three goals in the next game and promise not to lose the ball to advance. One round, I swear, it is absolutely impossible for them to complete such a task..."

On the field.

After scoring the goal, Shepchenko looked up to the sky and roared.

The long golden hair flies in the night sky of St. James, like a mobilized yellow flame. Everyone can feel the terrible enthusiasm and energy released in the flame!

He took the initiative to run up and hugged Owen, Arshavin, and every teammate... Then, in the applause and cheers of more than 25,000 people in St. James, the nuclear warhead smiled and walked slowly to the side of the field, and warmly hugged the madman Li, just like two old friends who finally reunited, hugged and accepted Newcastle behind him. The cheers of the Sier fans... hug, wave, smile!

This is all the way Shepchenko uses to express his emotion and excitement at this moment. Tears are no longer needed. Tears have flown after the last goal against West Bromwich Albion... Tears belong to the past.

Now, Shepchenko knows that he needs to welcome the new life with a smile and happiness!

"I said that you are a natural shooter, and all those who have suspected you will pay the price, bloody price!"

In the hug, Li Tongfan boasted proudly.

... "... Shepchenko's goal boosted Newcastle's morale, and the Magpie Legion set off a stormy offensive. Ajax had to defend all the line to avoid being pierced by the goal by the opponent at once... Hey hey, this is not the style of Dutch football. They are dangerous, haha..."

Although he was severely criticized by the leaders of the TV station in the last explanation of the semi-finals of the English League Cup, he was severely criticized by the leader for not putting the neutral position of the players, but at this moment, watching Newcastle press Ajax hard in the backcourt, Sester began to be complacent again.

... Within 10 minutes after Shepchenko scored, the Magpie Legion always had an absolute advantage on the field.

Alan Smith's toughness, Fernando Gago's delicacy, Juan Mata and Arshavin's fast and flexibility have been played to the fullest in these ten minutes. Newcastle's waves of attacks are like the rushing waves in the English Channel, making the Dutch people breathless and almost suffocate. Xi... Van Basten saw that the opponent's offensive was too fierce, so he simply waved his hand and motioned Ajax to carry out a defensive counterattack.

Although Ajax's scene seems to be passive, Van Basten is not worried at all.

Everyone knows that the Netherlands is rich in offensive geniuses, and Dutch football is famous for its full attack and defense. In the image of this world, attack is the blood flowing all over Dutch players... Therefore, if the team that has always been from the Netherlands has been occupied by the opponent's advantage in the attack, it is not far from defeat. Yes.

However, few people know that Van Basten's Ajax is a team that is good at defensive counterattacks!

Because its body is engraved with a strong 'Van Basten style'.

After the unsatisfactory reform of the Dutch national team, Van Basten transferred his 'test field' to the Ajax Club... Today, Van Basten is going to use the unparalleled madman Li in attack to test the effect of his painstakingly running for most of the season!

"Come on, madman Li, use your best offensive football to prove the power of my football philosophy! Let me break your invincible myth!"

Van Basten is full of confidence.

...Time has passed.

10 minutes...20 minutes...30 minutes...when the whole game was in the 30th minute, although Newcastle's offensive did not stop at all, the score on the court remained at 1:1. Such a situation made more and more Newcastle fans began to become anxious... Time every time A second is equivalent to scooping out a piece of meat in the heart of Newcastle.

Now the Magpie Legion lacks nothing but time, and of course, goals!

Finally, in the 34th minute, the situation on the field changed.

Newcastle, which could not be attacked for a long time, finally inevitably appeared a trace of gap, but it was this fleeting fear of standing, but Ajax, who had been waiting like a rattlesnake for a long time, seized the opportunity... The cold light flashed!

The Dutch counterattack is coming!

It was the Brazilian player Leonardo who "one person defeated Newcastle" in the first round of the confrontation between the two sides at the Olympic Stadium in Amsterdam!

He caught a stop of Newcastle full-back Gareth Bell, took the ball and galloped down the side road after catching the ball... "This is an opportunity!! Ajax's counterattack..."

Dutch commentator Nigel Van Buron blushed and screamed as he slapped the table.

"Buzzing..."

There were bursts of exclamations from the stand of St. James.

Van Basten raised his neck and was so nervous that he didn't even blink his eyelids: Come on, it's this time, the opportunity to show Ajax's new style, here comes... In front of Newcastle's coach's bench, seeing that the situation turned so critical, assistant coach Alan Shearer couldn't help coming to the field in three or two steps at this time. On the other hand, he shouted loudly. As for what he was shouting, he could not hear it clearly in the tide of St. James... However, when Alan Shearer inadvertently turned his head, he was surprised to see that Li Tongfan, who should be the 'most anxious person' in the audience, had no anxious expression on his face, and Just quietly looking at the court... Seeing this scene, Alan Shearer suddenly felt that maybe... on the court.

[Speed] and [Expocity] Double 16 Brazilian Leonardo swept towards Newcastle's penalty area like a strong wind... Because the mistake was left-back Gareth Bale, on the left side of Newcastle, there was no longer any defensive player effective against Leonardo. Interference... It was near the arc of the penalty area that Leonardo's speed slowly dropped.

At this time, Steven Taylor, who was desperately pursuing, finally returned to the defensive in place breathlessly, stuck the Brazilian's way forward!

However, the situation in Newcastle has not improved at all.

Because there were only three people who had time to make up for the defense, Taylor, Manzini and David Thornton, and Ajax's offensive force burst out at this moment, as many as five people... This was obviously a premeditated counterattack.

So sharp, so deadly!

"Wow hahahahaha, 5 to 3 in the front court, Newcastle is in a desperate situation..." Nigel Van Bloom almost bit his tongue excitedly.

On the field.

Without any hesitation, Leonardo chose to pass the ball.

Because the head coach Van Basten explained and analyzed the characteristics of each player in Newcastle in detail before the game, and the big man named Taylor in front of him was the object that Van Basten emphasized!

"...Steven Taylor, Newcastle's defense core, has the reputation of 'the world's first central defender' and 'Little Superman'. The frontal defense and physical confrontation belong to the first-class level..."

In the face of such a high-level player as Van Basten, Leonardo was not sure to break through at the first time. He wanted not to delay the team's advance speed and rhythm. As smart as Leonardo knew, passing the ball was the best choice... Seeing Leonardo's choice, Van Basten on the sidelines nodded with relief, showing that However, I am very satisfied with this kind of treatment!

The football drew a half-height arc in the air and rushed over Taylor's waist.

Such a height is the most difficult place for defensive players to deal with. Leonardo's pass was very thief. Taylor had no choice. The football finally came to the other side of the penalty area... The Ajax player who appeared there was the one who captured St. James's striker Luis Suarez in less than a minute, and the defense Suarez's is still a handsome Italian boy Thornton!

"Come on, I won't give you any chance this time. Don't come over from me again!" Thornton roared and lowered the center and rushed over.

However, at this time, the mutation suddenly occurred... Suarez did not give Thornton any chance to recover his previous mistakes at all. He did not have the idea of stopping the ball to get the ball, but directly pushed the football back to the middle... In the middle, the player who followed up the insertion was Ajax's front line top 'hunter' Huntelaal!

This uninterrupted pass on the left and right of Kajax's attack line tore a huge crack in Newcastle's weak defense in the middle, so that there was no Newcastle player defense around when Huntelall took the ball... Single knife!

Directly face the goalkeeper Hugo Loris!

At this time, countless Newcastle fans in St. James' stands couldn't help covering their eyes. Everyone knows that in the face of such an opportunity, a scorer like Hunter will almost safely send the football to the goal... Dutch fans from afar have begun to jump up. Cheers!

"A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Huntlar!!! As soon as the ball is scored, Newcastle will sink to the bottom, and the myth of the madman Li will dissipate..."

At this moment, the scene of the collapse of the madman Li myth appeared in front of many people in the world, but... a man stood up!

"Won't think about it!!"

The moment when Hunter raised his foot and shot, a yellow figure suddenly appeared in front of the football like a teleportation. When Hunter's instep touched the football, the football did not roar out as he thought, but a huge force came from the football field, shaking Hunter. It's flying... Hugo Loris!!

The football was held in his arms!!

When Huntelaar shot the football, the football had been held in Loris' arms, which shocked Huntelaar, not the football, but Loris' chest behind the football!

"It's Loris! Loris! Loris! Loris! Loris! Loris! Loris..." Sester was excited and incoherent, and every muscle all over his body was trembling: "Loris succeeded in attacking. He grabbed the football before Huntelaar and incredibly decomposing Ajax's almost inevitable shot..."

"Wow, is this so possible?"

Dutch commentator Nigel Van Bloom's eyes darkened and fainted.

On the sidelines.

Van Basten's disappointment and Alan Shearer's ecstasy reflected each other. The shouting and exclamation were the main theme of the St. James's stands... Only Li Tongfan's face was calm, because the sulking man knew that this was just an appetizing dish. The real meal was coming - on the court.

After Hugo Loris saved the football, he immediately got up and ran a few steps without any hesitation, throwing the football in his arms high... "Go ahead, score!!"

Loris looked at the football that flew towards Juan Mata, full of expectations and guilt.

In the past winter transfer period, the news of the Irish goalkeeper Given's transfer from Newcastle to Aston Villa shocked the whole Premier League. As a member of Newcastle, Loris certainly knew the reason for Gibbon's departure... Before that, Loris positioned himself as a substitute for Gibbon, and he never I hope that I can become the starting goalkeeper of the Magpie Legion in such a short time... And the man who brought him from Ligue 1 to St. James, who was called the 'head' by him, unexpectedly gave him more!

For a young player who has joined the team for less than a year, he has been deprived of the main position of meritorious old qualifications. You can imagine how much pressure the madman Li is under. Such kindness makes Loris extremely grateful that he is always in training and competition. The strictest standard requires himself, hoping to repay the promotion of the madman Li... However, today, in this game that is crucial to the revival of Newcastle, he was easily scored by the other party in less than a minute of the opening, which made Loris' heart full of guilt... "I, Hugo Loris swore that he would never let Ajax score another goal!"

... "Newcastle's counterattack is dangerous..."

At the on-site commentary table, the Dutch commentator Nigel van Bloom, who had just woken up, saw the thrilling scene happening on the court. He just shouted a word and fainted again.

On the field.

The football was thrown by Hugo Loris to the foot of Mata on the right side of the middle circle arc.

Loris's alert throw hit Ajax with a fatal time difference. More than ten seconds ago, when the Dutch were still running forward to fight back, they would never expect that they would become counterattacked after just a dozen seconds... Wait until Juan Mata was near the middle arc. When the football was unloaded, Spain's [Angel Wings] had already directly faced Ajax's guard line. Ajax did not hesitate to push hard in the counterattack, causing a fatal flaw... The Dutch were desperately chasing back.

But Juan Mata didn't give them any chance. He didn't choose the dribbling he was best at, but passed the ball directly... This was a straight plug.

On the route of the pass, there was no Newcastle player to answer. Just as the Ajax thought it was a passing mistake, a figure suddenly swept over from the slash like lightning, easily got the football, and then walked forward with big feet... "Matta's pass, as if no one answered... Oh, woops, woops! Oh! Shepchenko, he plugged in from the back row like a nuclear bomb, and the anti-offside succeeded... single knife!!!" Sester roared desperately. He was desperate.

"Single single... single knife?"

Van Buron, the Dutch commentator who had just woken up, got up with a puzzled face. As a result, he looked up. On the court, Shepchenko was thundering with his football to the goalkeeper Steckenburg, who was left behind. Suddenly, his eyes darkened and he fainted for the third time.

... "No entry, no entry, no entry!!!" Ajax's fans cursed silently in their hearts.

"You must enter, you must enter, you must enter!!" The fans of Newcastle and Shepchenko put their hands together to pray the most humble and devout prayers to God.

On the field.

Shepchenko has aggressively entered Ajax's penalty area with football. The goalkeeper Stecklenburg did not choose to attack, but slowly paced to block the shooting space as much as possible, while lowering the center of gravity and waiting for Shepchenko to make a decision when he approached... 5 meters ...4 meters...2 meters...1 meters... "The opportunity is at this time!"

When the distance between the two was less than one meter, Stellenburg's eyes lit up. He thought that if you didn't shoot at such a close distance, then don't blame me for pouting your ball. After all, our goalkeepers in the penalty area can 'do'... So, I thought that all the frontal shooting angles of Shepchenko had blocked. After that, Steckenburg jumped forward with confidence... After a minute, Steckenburg felt that his fingers had touched the football, and the cold touch from between his fingers made the Ajax goalkeeper ecstatic... But, at this time...

Football disappeared from his eyes!

"What's going on? Is this impossible?"

Steckenburg was shocked. He could see clearly that Shepchenko did not make a shot, and the football did not fly past him... "Football, where did you go?"

Stecklenburg can't see where the football has gone, but the rest of St. James can see it clearly. Facing Stellenburg, Shepchenko did not choose to shoot, but... but gently pushed the football aside at a critical moment!

Although he collided with the goalkeeper next, on the other side, Michael Owen, who was plugged in at high speed, got a chance to face the empty door... [Lightning Killer] did not waste the beauty of [nuclear warhead], laughing at the gift!

"Shepchenko... single knife... oh, oh, oh, oh, he didn't shoot, pass the ball! Shepchenko passed the football to Owen, who was in a better position, a chance to push the empty goal... the goal scored! In the face of such an opportunity, Owen will not make any mistakes!"

"...2:1!! Newcastle scored the second goal of the game, which is a classic example that can be written into the defensive counterattack textbook. From Loris throwing the ball to Owen's final shot, the whole process took less than 30 seconds, 25 seconds less than Ajax's attack at the beginning of the game. ...I think this should also be the fastest counterattack record of the five major leagues this season!"

Sester's mouth was like a machine gun, and he kept spraying, while Dutch commentator Nigel Van Bloom was still lying under the table of the commentary table.

At this time, the broadcast camera was aimed at the coach's seat on the sidelines, and everyone saw an interesting scene.

(to be continued)
