When the game reached the 35th minute, Ding Hongxing found Musampa on the right side with an accurate long pass from 50 meters away, and Musampa fired a shot from the corner of the penalty area that was high above the crossbar, and the Utrecht manager finally couldn't sit still, and he stood up and asked the team to recycle the formation and watch out for Ajax's counterattack.

This adjustment of the opposing coach has greatly reduced Utrecht's aggression, they do not have any players with particularly outstanding individual ability in their team, their attack is all about the whole, and they use the overall pressure formation to put pressure on the opponent, and now the formation is recycled, the pressure on the Ajax team has been reduced a lot, and they have more space to make a fuss in attack.

Maybe after the game, the manager of Utrecht will regret his decision, at this time, in fact, the players of the Ajax team have also reached a limit, if he is a little more bold and let the players continue to press the strong attack, maybe the Ajax team will collapse, but it is a pity that he is timid, recycles the formation, and the momentum of the players on his side is discharged, and it is not so easy to drum up again.

But this is also an afterthought, in the circumstances at the time, the decision he made should be the one that most people would make, what if his adventure did not succeed and was stolen by Ajax? Isn't he the one who took the blame after the game? Even if it's a draw, there's a point, not much like a win. Therefore, if you want to blame Ding Hongxing, why is the long pass so accurate? This is not scientific!

In short, the decision of the Utrecht manager brought the situation back to parity, and the two sides became evenly matched.

Utrecht is not a strong team, since the beginning of the league has been fighting in the relegation zone, today's game can just start to have the upper hand, relying on Ajax's personnel and their momentum, now this momentum is down, their strength is honestly not much stronger than Ajax's lineup, naturally they can't have the upper hand.

At this moment, the sharp-eyed Van Gaal found an opportunity, and took advantage of a dead ball opportunity, he stood on the sidelines and called Ding Hongxing, who listened and nodded repeatedly.

From this minute on, Ding Hongxing increased his personal attack, he dribbled the ball from the back to the front several times in a row, once after attracting two or three defenders, he passed straight to Van Watson, so that Van Watson formed a single knife, but unfortunately Van Watson's shooting skills were limited, and the opposing goalkeeper hit the ball high in the face of the attack, and the other time he shot from a distance, the opposing goalkeeper had surrendered, but the ball flew out of the bottom line by grazing the crossbar.

Ding Hongxing's sudden force stirred up Utrecht's defense in chaos, their ability was limited, no one could prevent Ding Hongxing, and when their defense was about to collapse, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half of the game, which made the Utrecht detachment members breathe a long sigh of relief.

Van Gaal has some regrets, he almost scored two times just now, but unfortunately they were all a fraction of a second, but Ding Hongxing's table is still very satisfied, this kid can attack and defend back, he is really a great general!

In the second half of the game, Ding Hongxing continued his good performance, and sent wonderful passes to his teammates several times, but they were wasted one by one.

Ding Hongxing also sighed several times, it seems that without the support of his teammates, he is also lonely, if he directly participates in the attack too many times, in case the opponent plays a counterattack, it will be difficult to guide the ball.

Van Gaal also meant not to let him take risks, in the last few minutes of the first half, it was the opponent who had just recovered the formation and had an unstable foothold, so he let Ding Hongxing attack a few times, wanting to take advantage of this opportunity to sneak attack one, but now it is different, Ding Hongxing still does a good job of defense first.

However, in the second half, Utrecht's momentum came up again, because Ajax's current players on the field are substitute players and members of the youth team, they usually have limited opportunities to play, and they are not very suitable for the rhythm of the Eredivisie, and they have no experience in distributing the body.

Although the players of the Utrek detachment are of average strength, they are much more experienced and more energetic, or rather, they know how to distribute their bodies, and when they saw that the players of Ajax could not run, they immediately took the initiative to press on them and launched a furious attack again.

This time the attack was more fierce than in the first half, because this time Ajax's defenders were not as good as in the first half, so there were more holes, although Van Watson, Musampa and other attacking players returned to the back line to help defend, but the defense was still tight.

At this time, Ding Hongxing played a huge role, his body is abundant, his running ability is excellent, he can be seen from left to right, coupled with Van der Sar's excellent performance, he is trying to keep the goal intact, his tall figure is like a reef standing under the impact of the vast tide, and the opponent's countless impacts are in vain in front of him.

On the stand behind the goal of Ajax, there is just a group of fans wearing Ajax No. 16 jerseys, led by Liao Minghua, they spare no effort to cheer for Ding Hongxing, cheering for Ding Hongxing's wonderful defense again and again, in the first two games, Ding Hongxing conquered countless fans with his offense, and in this game, Ding Hongxing used his defense to conquer these fans again.

At this moment, Ding Hongxing became the symbol of Ajax, the ancient Greek warrior Great Els, in the face of the endless impact of the enemy, he was not afraid at all, and some sentimental female fans looked at Ding Hongxing's tall back, and the corners of his eyes were already filled with tears.

In the eyes of the Utrecht fans who were full of them, Ding Hongxing was undoubtedly a demon, a demon who killed their team's hopes.

Van Gaal is also anxious off the field, he now regrets that he did not put a few main players on the bench, now it is only ten minutes before the end of the game, if you can replace three main players at this time, you will definitely be able to prevent the opponent's attack, at least you can get a draw, although they are not in good shape, it is no problem to hold on for ten minutes.

Seeing the frequent cramps of the players on the field, Van Gaal had no choice but to replace three players who were not physically fit and replaced with three young players, all of whom were midfielders, and Van Gaal now only hopes that they can prevent the last few minutes.
