Chapter 508: Disaster is not a one-way street
Trapattoni's face was pale, although the goal was a little careless with Helmer's pass, but Mateus's poor fitness was also an important reason, when he was full of energy, he could not be so lightly broken by others.
And today's Bayern Munich's offensive tactics make the number of defenders in the midfield and backfield insufficient, and there is no sense of hierarchy in defense.
Trapattoni looked at Ding Hongxing, who was celebrating the goal, he had put a lot of effort into studying the Chinese player who had been in the limelight recently, he knew that Ding Hongxing's offensive ability was very strong, but after the game started, Ajax was purely on the defensive, and Ding Hongxing had also been staring at Mateus, except for a few long passes, basically did not participate in the attack, which made Trapattoni also relax his vigilance, but he didn't expect to be scored by Ding Hongxing at this moment.
This is really a good player, if possible, Trapattoni really wants to be able to coach Ding Hongxing, but after the end of this season, he does not know if he can stay at Bayern Munich or where he will coach.
Thinking of this, Trapattoni couldn't help but feel a little melancholy, but he immediately remembered that now was not the time to be melancholy, he immediately stood on the side of the pitch and asked the players to recycle a little, now Mateus has a physical problem, the midfield barrier is insufficient, and the backfield is too empty, in this way, Ajax's counterattack will only hit one accurately, but now it is not good to replace Mateus immediately, and Trapattoni can only do this to avoid his edge.
Misfortune is that when the first half was about to end, Mateus fell to the ground without warning in the process of a run, his face was painful, Ding Hongxing next to him immediately raised his hand to signal that the referee was injured, the referee stopped the game, called Bayern Munich's team doctor to play, and after the team doctor examined, it was confirmed that Mateus's thigh strain had recurred again and must be off the field immediately.
Trapattoni was extremely depressed to replace Mateus, he now regrets it very much, why should he think about face, if he had been replaced earlier, he would have been able to play in the second round, but now it seems that he should not think about participating in the second leg.
Although Mateus is off, Bayern Munich doesn't seem to have much attacking power, but Ajax is still in accordance with the pre-game established tactics, playing defensive counterattacks happily, Ding Hongxing sits in the backfield to launch a long pass, and there are three players with good speed and technology in the front court waiting for the opportunity to counterattack, which makes Bayern Munich embarrassed.
In this dilemma, time passed minute by minute, and finally, at the end of the 90-minute game, Ajax defeated Bayern Munich 1-0 away with a goal from Ding Hongxing, and took the lead in the two-legged knockout round.
When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, in addition to the Ajax players and a small number of fans who came with the team to celebrate, the entire Munich Olympic Stadium was a dead silence, this season is really a disaster for Bayern Munich, they fought on three lines, the third line is unfavorable, and now they lost to Ajax at home, and more importantly, they can't see the possibility of the team turning the tables away at all, judging from the state and fighting spirit of the players, they don't seem to want to win at all, and Mateus, who was the most energetic, was also injured again, I couldn't play in the second round, and it seemed that defeat was inevitable.
In this game, Ding Hongxing's outstanding performance has attracted the attention of many giant clubs, every year in the Champions League, is a stage for giant clubs to find outstanding players, if the intensity of the Eredivisie is not enough to say too much, then, in the Champions League, the table xiàn is enough to illustrate the problem, Ding Hongxing's table xiàn is as good as ever, he has scored five goals in three games, especially in the game against Bayern Munich, he shines at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, He completely froze Mateus and scored the winning goal, how could such a watch not make many giants salivate?
After returning to Amsterdam, April 9th, Ajax at home against Willem II, this is a game in the 28th round of the league, the morale of the Ajax team, which has achieved excellent results recently, swept the Willem II team 7-0 at home, Ding Hongxing is full of firepower, one person scored four yuan, it is worth mentioning that when the score came to 7-0, Ajax won a penalty, at this time there is not much time before the end of the game, everyone thought that Ding Hongxing would take this penalty, However, he gave up the penalty opportunity to the only goalkeeper Van der Sar who had not scored in the main squad this season, Van der Sar was surprised and moved, but he did not refuse Ding Hongxing's kindness, he stepped forward to take the penalty, but unfortunately, he missed the penalty.
When Van der Sar missed the penalty, the ball went out of the bottom line, he was running back in frustration, Ding Hongxing put his arm around his shoulder and said to him, he will give him a penalty when he has a chance in the future, and he must let him score a goal for Ajax this season, Van der Sar just nodded and didn't say anything, but it was impossible for him not to be moved in his heart, he knew that now was a critical period for Ding Hongxing to compete for the top scorer, and last time he gave a penalty opportunity to Frank. De Boer, today he gave another one to himself, he actually missed this penalty, and as a result, he had to give himself a penalty opportunity, if he can't get the top scorer, where can he put his face?
Van der Sar is a person who is not good at words, he was moved in his heart, but he didn't say it, he decided to practice penalty kicks during this time, and next time Ding Hongxing gave the penalty to himself, he couldn't waste it anymore.
In this round of the league, Ronaldo scored two goals, so that his goal tally has reached 30, five goals behind Ding Hongxing, ranked second, and he is at a clear disadvantage in the race for the top scorer, but this year there are two players who have scored more than 30 goals, which is also a big event in Dutch football.
Roda JC also won this round of the league, so they are still ten points behind Ajax and second in the league, and in the next round of the league, if Ajax wins and Roda JC fails to win, Ajax will win the Eredivisie five rounds ahead of schedule.
