94. The Galactic Battleship is coming

On January 22, 2010, the second half of the Eredivisie officially began. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

On a snowy afternoon, thanks to a free-kick from Donny van der Wiel, Ajax won 1-0 against AZ Alkmaar, while their title rivals FC Twente were held to a 0-0 draw by relegation rivals Groningen, and Van Basten's side were able to complete the comeback and return to the top of the table.

Van Basten had thought that the 19th round of the league might be a turning point in the title race this season.

But reality tells him: you think too much.

On 27 January, another rainy and snowy afternoon, Ajax, who came on as an all-substitute, won 1-0 at home to Nijmegen and won a place in the last four of the Dutch Cup.

Just three days later, they were on their way to Feyenoord for a "Dutch national derby" against their century-old rival Feyenoord.

Maybe the temperature was too low, or maybe the players hadn't fully recovered from their vacation, and there was no passion in the game.

The frontcourt players of both sides frequently wrestled on the muddy grass, and the defenders represented by Longshute became the protagonists of the game.

In the "bitter cold" of minus 2 degrees, the forward line led by Suarez was once again scoreless, and Ajax relied on Vertonghen's header to draw 1-1 with Feyenoord.

FC Twente, who watched the fight, took the opportunity to beat Roda JC 2-0, and the two teams changed places again.

Van Basten could only continue to look up to the sky and sigh:

God, you like to play with me so much?!

As we enter February, most of the Netherlands is finally slightly warmer, and although it rains and snows from time to time, the overall temperature is not as cold as before.

When the sun appeared in the sky, Suarez, who had been silent for most of the month, finally came back to life, and he scored four goals in the 21st round of the league, and once again bloodied Roda JC, who lost to FC Twente in the previous round of the league.

But FC Twente didn't drop the chain either, as they beat Heracles 2-1 to continue to lead the table.

Van Basten didn't complain this time, because the 22nd round was a direct conversation between Ajax and FC Twente.

He was ready to finish off the sniper battle against Twente at his home stadium, the Amsterdam Stadium, and in doing so, he would blow the title rival and make them lose confidence.

But...... Van Basten was on his hands for a week, but what he didn't expect still happened.

When February 13 came, snow suddenly fell over the Amsterdam Stadium......

Dutch fans are not as fanatical as England fans, as soon as they see the snowflakes, most of the people who are afraid of the cold immediately return home, huddle on the sofa and hold the teapot to watch TV, only a few thousand diehards are left in the huge stadium huddled in the stands shivering, and the home atmosphere is gone.

So Van Basten could only yell at a gray sky:

I'm going to mud horses, God!

Don't let people live?!

Are you here in Mohe?

Why does it snow every day?!

In the snow, the newly resurrected Suarez was frozen again, and Soleimani also disappeared into the snow, and the two of them combined to contribute three shots on goal and zero on target, disappointing the fans sitting on the sidelines.

Fortunately, others stepped up, the young and energetic youngster De Zeu opened the scoring with a long-range shot, the Danish veteran Romerdal and the Serbian striker who were not afraid of the cold expanded the score one after another, and the least afraid of the cold Longshut used a counterattack opportunity to lock the score at 4-0.

Ajax completed their revenge on a narrow first-leg defeat with a big eyebrow win and once again overtook their opponents in the standings.

Van Basten bowed to God contentedly and began to plan his next match.

Next game...... It's the Champions League quarterfinals.

Ajax host Real Madrid.

When the single dog Long Shut had managed to survive February 14, he suddenly heard the streets of Amsterdam being filled with two English words:

“REAL-MADRID!”

What team is Real Madrid?

I think if I were to dedicate a paragraph to the illustrious history of this club, it would definitely be criticised as a water word count.

It seemed like overnight, Amsterdam was full of white Real Madrid jerseys.

For the first time, Ronjut knew that the Spanish club's popularity in Amsterdam could rival that of local giants Ajax.

Oh no, it's not a rivalry, it's even ...... Crush!

When Real Madrid's coaches and players arrived in the Netherlands on a luxury charter flight, the fans and media who went to greet them almost caused a serious traffic jam!

Even a commentator on Dutch television said sourly: "The whole of the Netherlands seems to have been taken over by the Galactic battleship!" ”

When Real Madrid coach Manuel Pellegrini shook hands with Ajax boss Van Basten at his press conference at the Amsterdam Stadium, he and Cristiano Ronaldo, who was also in attendance, instantly turned the venue into their home stadium.

Even the media closest to Ajax abandoned the White Swan as if they were on their feet, and only cared about aiming their spears and short guns at Real Madrid's generals, and the spotlight flashed as if they didn't want money.

'Ajax are a great team, they've won the Champions League four times in their history, they're world famous for their youth level, Real Madrid have had a lot of great Dutch players, so I know the characteristics of this team and we've made it so we can make things difficult for them. Real Madrid pursue artistic football and I'm sure Ajax will do the same, looking forward to what will be a good game......"

Dubbed the "Chilean Engineer", he doesn't overly compliment his opponents or make them think they're too arrogant – even though he does have the credentials to dominate the world as Real Madrid manager.

But Ronaldo, who was also sitting on the podium, behaved much more directly:

'To be fair, there is a big gap between the Eredivisie and La Liga, Ajax and Real Madrid are not the same level of teams these days, even though this is their home stadium, I don't think they can make anything difficult for us, the victory will be ours, the only thing we should think about is how to make the most of our attacking ability in the league.

Before he could finish his words, Peter Layton, a young journalist from the Dutch Telegraph, asked rhetorically: "Real Madrid have been in the round of 16 for five consecutive seasons, do you think they can make a breakthrough this year?" ”

Ronaldo glanced at the Dutch reporter who didn't know the height of the sky, and looked disdainful:

"Yes, the final victor is, of course, us."

"Why?" Layton asked reluctantly.

Ronaldo shrugged his shoulders, the corners of his mouth raised upward, revealing a smile that could be called evil and crazy:

"Because we're Real Madrid."

"Because I'm here."
