Just one day before Long Shute's comeback, on April 15, Ajax was tied by William II, the second-last in the 32nd round of the league.

It is said that relegation teams are not easy to play, so Ajax suffered this.

William II, who was deeply trapped in the quagmire of relegation, surpassed Rotterdam Sparta with this precious point, and changed from second to third to third, taking the initiative of relegation in his own hands.

Ajax lost points, but chaser Twente did not make a move either - they were ranked fifth in the league, defending champion Alkmaar won a small goal, and the difference with Ajax changed from 1 point to 2 points.

On the third day after Long Shute's comeback, the penultimate round of the Eredivisie League started at the same time.

The young Ajax man, who finally recovered from the influence of volcanic ash, swept through Hercules who hit the muzzle with four goals.

There was a news that Long Shute felt a little threat: during the period when he was injured, Sim Dejong, who gradually settled in the main position, performed very well, and scored two goals in this game, and his light was even more dazzling than captain Suarez.

In addition, De Jong is a local player and Ajax's own youth training. Among the local fans, those forgetful fans will probably forget their No. 8...

No matter how you cover it up, it is an unbreakable thing: De Jong is a child who grew up in Ajax, and his relationship with Ajax is undoubtedly closer. Whether it is fans, coaches, or club executives, he will pay more attention to him than Long Shute.

Of course, they are not vicious competitions to the death, and Ajax midfielder is not just this one.

But Long Shute also knows a fact: many players suddenly find out after injuries that they have lost their position in the team, and then their situation is getting worse and worse...

So he urgently needs time to restore his physical condition to his best condition, and then use his training and competition performance to prove that he is still worthy of Ajax's main position.

April 25.

On the 10th day after Long Shute's comeback, the first leg of the Dutch Cup final kicked off at Amsterdam Arena.

After more than forty days, Long Shute re-entered the roster for the official competition.

Although the Dutch Cup championship is not worth much money and does not have much value, for the young people like Ajax, it is the first championship trophy they may win in their careers. Therefore, Van Basten does not need to bother too much, and their fighting spirit is particularly high.

In addition, the opponent is the opponent of the "Dutch National Derby", the local players who know the history of the two teams are more motivated.

The home game was played, and there was indeed a gap in strength between the two sides. The rhythm of the game was controlled by Ajax from the beginning. With the cheers of 40,000 fans, they firmly took the initiative.

However, it was the opponent of the national derby, Feyenoord was not afraid at all. They still fought against Ajax, and after the opening, they almost threatened the goal guarded by Steglenberg.

But their threats ended here. In just the fifth minute, Sim Dejong scored his first goal in lightning: he had a close relationship with Van der Weill in the backcourt. When Van der Weill took the ball, he was extremely smart at high speed and completed an unquestionable counter-offside.

When De Jong gently pushed the football into the net, Feyenoord's goalkeeper's attention was even Suarez, who was double-teamed by two central defenders...

Just one minute later, Emmanuelson passed the bottom of the left and entered the penalty area, attracting two defensive players Suarez to escape from the front point, and De Jong, who was surrounded by the back point, just raised his ankle and pushed the ball into the net again.

Score two goals in a minute, Sim Dejong's light shines on the entire court. Even if Feyenoord is stupid, he knows that he must stare at him to death. So after the 6th minute, he gradually disappeared into the camera, and occasionally appears, he falls down in the defense, or puts his opponent to the ground.

But despite this, two goals were enough to make him the focus of the commentator's discussion.

"De Jong has performed very well this season, and has repeatedly scored goals in the league. He has not seen any stage fright against giants from all over the country in the Champions League. Perhaps we can look forward to him helping the national team to compete for the World Cup in the summer..."

Dekur and Janssen have begun to imagine the Tulips Legion's journey in South Africa. As for the Chinese young players sitting on the bench, they have not even mentioned a word.

It was not until the 75th minute of the game that Van Basten finally sent Longshu to the field.

The two commentators then casually mentioned: "Oh, China Dragon finally ended more than a month of recovery and returned to the team. I hope he can recover his state before his injury as soon as possible and contribute his strength to Ajax's final road to championship."

What he replaced was not the goal-winning hero Sim Dejong, but the team captain Suarez.

Suarez handed the captain's armband to goalkeeper Steglenberg, and then walked off the court amid cheers from fans.

"Don't have a psychological burden," the head coach patted Long Shute's shoulder and pushed him onto the court. "Your task today is just to make your body feel something."

After he came on the court, Ajax's midfield control became stronger and stronger. Feyenoord could no longer pose any threat from the middle. He used his defensive ability to prove that he is still the most trustworthy barrier in Ajax's formation!

Moreover, he did not blindly try to participate in the offense because of De Jong's two goals. Unless it was a particularly good opportunity,... he still made it the top priority to consolidate the team's defense.

The 2-0 score continued to the end, 15 minutes, 2 successful interceptions, 0 fouls, 11 passes, 1 turnover, and 0 shots. This is the report card that Long Shute handed over in the first game after his comeback.

Feyenoord's players completely lost their will to fight at the end of the game, while Ajax kept his strength a little - after all, the last round of the league is coming soon, and no one is willing to spend their physical fitness on the Dutch Cup at such a critical moment.

This mentality is very obvious even in the coaching staff. Otherwise, Van Basten would not have replaced the most important team's first scorer, Suarez, the league's Golden Boot, in more than 70 minutes.

Since 2004, they have missed the league championship for six years. As the number one giant in domestic football in the Netherlands, such results are embarrassing.

Whether it is Van Basten or those players, they urgently need to enrich their honor room with a league championship trophy - because neither the White Swan as a coach nor the young people who have just begun their career have received any honors and are extremely eager for what they lack.

The last round of the league happened to be the weekend between the two finals of the Dutch Cup, with only three days apart from each other, but it constituted the three most critical games of Ajax throughout the season.

At 7:30 pm on May 2, 9 games in the 34th round of the 2009-10 Dutch League were opened in 9 cities at the same time.

Ajax, with 85 points, went to the away challenge, ranking 12th in Nijmegen.

Twente, who had 83 points, also went to the away game to challenge Breda, ranked 8th.

Ajax, who has more than 70 goals, can win the league championship this season as long as he is guaranteed to be unbeaten. They firmly take the initiative in their own hands.

Well, as long as you draw, you will be the champion!
