Magic Coach

Chapter 330 Ajax who was flattered

The next day, the beautiful Valencia did not keep the return of Alkmaar players. Early in the morning, Alkmaar's players flew back to Alkmaar by chartered plane.

Because Elkmaar did not hide the itinerary at all, when they arrived, about 30,000 Alkmaar fans came outside the city to welcome the arrival of the heroes.

The honor belongs not only to Alkmaar, but also to the whole Netherlands. As more and more fans gathered, more than 70,000 fans finally celebrated the Champions League final with the players on the streets along the way.

Fans waved the flag in their hands and shouted with all kinds of slogans high. Jiang Mu and the players opened the window of the bus. The players wore team uniforms and scarves to celebrate the team's entry into the Champions League final with the fans.

The league is over. Alkmaar only has to play in the Dutch Cup final. The opponent is Ajax, who is very familiar with it, so Jiang Mu did not let the players return to Alkmaar to start training, but gave them a half-day break to let them play to their heart's content until the next day. The Dutch Cup final is about to begin.

There are still two days left in the Dutch Cup final, and Jiang Mu increased the intensity of training on Friday. Van Bommel, who had a slight muscle strain in the Champions League semi-final, did not participate in the joint training. Although his strain injury is not serious, it is likely to make him miss the two most important games this season. Now Van Bomel is recovering desperately, hoping to catch up with the most important Champions League final. He is very eager to participate in the finals, and Alkmaar is inseparable from him.

Jiang Mu's training is not just for the Dutch Cup final, because three days after the Dutch Cup final, the Champions League final also starts immediately. Jiang Mu prepares the two matches together.

Due to the close time interval between the two games, Jiang Mu attended the pre-Dutch Cup final press conference with Ronaldinho at the end of training on Friday. The press conference was held at the Dutch Football Association Sports Center, and Jiang Mu revealed that he may not send all the main players to the Dutch Cup final. However, both Jiang Mu and Ronaldinho have shown great determination to win the game: "Our goal is to win the double crown, or even the triple crown."

The atmosphere at the press conference was relaxed and there was continuous laughter. Alkmaar's next two consecutive games will directly determine the ownership of the Champions League and Cup champions. Jiang Mu said, "If I choose one of the two, of course I will choose the Champions League. However, I also want to win the Cup. It is not appropriate to underestimate its value, but even if we give up the Dutch Cup, we may not be able to win the Champions League, so now we are playing a game, and winning a championship is a champion.

Debor's battle plan is also very clear. We will try our best to win both games. Whether it's this Sunday or next week's game, it's very important to us. In addition, a certain amount of luck may be needed on the day of the game. In the game, when we play well, there are always a lot of opportunities. In any case, we must find a way to increase this time, that is to say, the effort should last. But when the opponent is a team like Ajax, the situation is easy to change, and it may suddenly become unfavorable to us. However, we are confident that we have achieved good results in these two games. Now we are in high spirits and aim to win the double.

Predictions about the results of the next two games are common in the past few days. Jiang Mu's idea is very simple: "If we win the cup, we will be much more relaxed psychologically. This will bring us a lot of confidence in the Champions League final. On the contrary, if you lose, you may feel that something will go wrong in the next week. It's hard to say such a short-term thing. In a word, we want to win both games. Let's wait and see."

Ronaldinho also showed great confidence in the double crown. After Valencia scored two goals in the last game, we all felt that there might be no hope for promotion. After that, our teammates always remind each other that if we want to win something, we must fight every minute and every second. Only in this way can we succeed. It turns out to be true. Now we have an excellent opportunity to win the title of double crown, or even triple crown.

Ronaldinho revealed that in his hometown Brazil, people are also very concerned about the two duels. I have been away from Brazil for a long time, but my family still lives there. Alkmaar has now attracted the attention of fans all over the world. There are several Brazilian players here, so many people in our country are very concerned about these two games.

A happy thing happened to the fans in Alkmaar this Friday. The two oldest players in the team reached a contract renewal agreement with the club. 35-year-old Layi and 32-year-old Martens extended their original contract to one year due to their good performance in the semi-finals. Later, he will retire from Alkmaar, and Mattens' contract has become three years. After three years, he will also retire, but Jiang Mu revealed that Mattens may continue to work in the club as a management.

Layi said after the signing ceremony for the renewal of the contract. For a veteran like me, the significance of this contract is very special. I am very glad that Alkmaar can continue to stay with me. I also hope that I can continue to help Alkmaar with my experience. I will be very happy to retire here.

In the Dutch Cup final this Sunday, Martens and Lai were on the list of the game. In response, Martens said that no matter whether he can start or not, he will keep his physical condition at his best. He is very old, and he must be ready to play at any time and serve the team.

Jiang Mu also praised the two old players. He said, "The new contract shows our confidence in them. Lai and Martens have the strength to appear in the starting lineup of the Dutch Cup. It is not easy to win the popular final. Old players like them will calm down young people and play at ease when young people appear. When there is a problem, they can help them at any time with their own experience, which the coach can't do.

The Dutch Cup final starts at 18:00 p.m. on Sunday. The final venue will be held at Kuip Stadium, the home court of Feyenoord.

If Alkmaar can win this final, they will win the second cup championship and defend the double champion, becoming another defending double champion team in addition to the top three, because Alkmaar also reached the Champions League final. The victory of this final also means that Alkmaar has stepped into The ranks of the Dutch giants.

Last season, Alkmaar and Feyenoord played at the Amsterdam Stadium, the home stadium of Ajax. At that time, Alkmael Fye Nord completed the great record of the Double Crown. At that time, Ajax did not expect that such a super warcraft would rise around him. In order to fight against their old opponents at home, they also cheered Alkmaar, and now it's their turn to go to Feyenoord's home court and Alkmaar to compete for the Dutch Cup championship. Who will Fjenod's fans cheer for?

Because Alkmaar reached the Champions League final and easily won the league championship, while Ajax only ranked fifth. Before the game, the media was hardly optimistic that the former giant Ajax had the possibility of winning the championship.

The Netherlands's Renren commented before the game: "Ajax has no hope of winning the championship. For them, the only opportunity comes from whether Jiang Mu will think too much about the Champions League three days later. If Alkmaar regards the Dutch Cup final as a training, then Ajax may be cold, otherwise they will never win. Machine."

Holland's Oath believes that Ajax is not even a strong team in the Dutch League, and it is not a team at the same level as Alkmaar, who has reached the Champions League finals. Even if Alkmaar is really a substitute now, Ann Ajax does not dare to say that he can win.

Media such as The Telegraph, International Football, Metro and other media are not optimistic about Ajax and do not regard them as a team of the same level as Alkmaar. This is undoubtedly a humiliation to Ajax, who once won the Champions League five years ago and reached the Champions League final four years ago.

In this regard, Ajax' head coach, young fireman Westhoff, expressed his anger. He said at a press conference before the game: "Not to mention that Alkmaar has not won the championship. Even if they win the championship, they can't compare with us. The three consecutive Champions League championships are unprecedented. We scored four years ago. In the UEFA Champions League final, Alkmaar wants to catch up with us, and they have to work hard for a few more years. However, many dark horses are a flash in the pan. In the second year, they disappeared or even downgraded, hoping that Alkmaar can hold on.

Although Westhoff does not think that the current Alkmaar can catch up with Ajax, he still has a clear understanding of Ajax's strength. He said that this Dutch Cup final is very difficult for Ajax. Alkmaar's strength is stronger than theirs. If they want to win the championship, they can only get the strongest lineup and opponents. Fight for your life.

Westhoff's words carry a hidden threat, because three days later, Alkmaar will play a world-renowned battle with Real Madrid. If the main player is injured in the Dutch Cup final, it will definitely outweigh Alkmael.

Jiang Mu was wary of Westhoff's words. First, he warned his players to protect themselves, and on the other hand, he said in the media that he would dedicate a Dutch-style full attack and defense to the world with Ajax, so that the world could see the true meaning of Dutch football.

However, Jiang Mu's suggestion obviously did not get a response from Ajax. Westhoff still hopes to take a Dutch Cup champion to keep the position. When food and clothing are not solved, how can he consider letting the world see the true meaning of the Dutch League? For Westhoff, the most important thing is to keep his job first, no matter he What means to take?

If in previous years, the Dutch Cup champion was not attractive to a rich family like Ajax, but after Jiang Mu came, all the championships belonged to Alkmaar, other teams could not even drink soup, and the Dutch Cup champion suddenly became important. Because this is equivalent to pulling teeth from the mouths of Jiang Mu and Alkmaar, which is of great significance to the Dutch team.
