On Saturday 20 November, Ajax will play away to Utrele in the 11th round of the league, before this game, the Ajax team was in very bad condition, the whole team played two national team games with their respective national teams, tired and tired, what they need most now is rest, not games. Eight] Eight] Reading] Book, .2√3.¢o

The most important thing is that three days later, Ajax will also challenge the strongest opponent in the group in the fifth round of the Champions League group stage, the Italian AC Milan team, although Ajax is now two wins and two draws and six points in the first place in the group, it seems that the shape is good, but if they lose two games in a row, they still have the possibility of being eliminated, therefore, this game Van Gaal is absolutely impossible to give up.

The game against AC Milan can't be abandoned, that against Utrecht's league Van Gaal only had no choice but to rest, in the starting list announced before the game, except for goalkeeper Van der Sar, none of the remaining dozen players appeared on the starting list, Van Gaal sent a full substitute lineup, and even selected several players from the youth team into the starting list.

Louis van Gaal even started cursing the international breakday, the damn international break, that put his Ajax in such an embarrassing situation.

Utrecht are not strong and can be called weak compared to opponents such as PSV Eindhoven and Feyenoord, but it is also a very dangerous away game at this special moment. In fact, in real history, the only game in which Ajax have failed to score in the league this season was this one, when they were forced to a 0-0 score by Utrecht, or rather, they forced them to a 0-0 score.

Of course, what is different from history now is that Ajax has an additional physical Ding Hongxing, what variables can he bring to this game?

But even Van Gaal, who is very confident in Ding Hongxing, did not have any confidence before the start of this game, joking, the opponent is a Dutch team, and he is not arrogant enough to think that he can beat such a Dutch team with substitutes and ordinary youth team players.

After the start of the game, Ding Hongxing unexpectedly appeared in the position of central defender, and the Utrecht detachment also launched a furious attack on the Ajax team, the so-called take advantage of your illness, want your life, Utrecht is a team that has been relegated this season, if they can't get all two points on such an Ajax, then they will definitely regret it.

Ding Hongxing is no stranger to his teammates, because these are the teammates who have trained with him in the past ten days, and these teammates have no main players except for Van der Sar, who doesn't like to talk, all of them are marginal figures of the team, and no one has an opinion on Ding Hongxing's core position.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that it was too shocking for a player who had just joined the team to be captain, Van Gaal would have wanted to hand over the captain's armband to him, and now he has appointed the captain Van der Sar, the oldest player on the field, but Van der Sar is too introverted to be the captain.

From the first minute of the game, Ding Hongxing's mouth has not stopped, he has been directing his teammates to defend, Utrecht's offensive is too fierce, like a stormy wave, Ajax's goal is in danger, which also brings a lot of pressure to Ding Hongxing, his strength alone is always limited, no matter how fast he runs, can he have the ball fast? Therefore, Ajax contracted across the line to minimize the holes in the defensive line, and Ding Hongxing, like a foreman, was directing the workers to fill every hole.

But the ability of these teammates is too ordinary, even if the midfielders all return to the vicinity of the penalty area, Ajax's goal is still dangerous, if it weren't for Ding Hongxing relying on his super fast recovery speed to destroy the opponent's two shots, plus Van der Sar is in good shape, made a few wonderful saves, Ajax would not have known how many goals behind.

Van Gaal frowned, although he rotated extensively in this game, he did not want to lose this game, and a draw was acceptable to him.

In the first ten rounds of the league, Ajax seems to be infinitely beautiful, nine wins and one draw and 19 points are at the top of the Eredivisie, but it is not a one-of-a-kind, behind them, it is Roda JC who gave Ajax a draw, they won six and drew four in ten rounds of the league, and they are also unbeaten, accumulating 16 points, ranking second, and Ajax is only one half-way gap, this gap is too small, if it is not for this ball Ajax's main players are really not suitable to play, Preparing for the away game against AC Milan, Van Gaal would not dare to rotate such a wide range.

This situation shows the science of the three-point system, and if the three-point system is implemented now, Ajax can pull Roda JC away by six points, and they can take a breath.

This is not to be mentioned, Van Gaal did not dare to look at the situation on the field for an instant, every danger in front of the Ajax goal made his heart rise to his throat, fortunately, there is Ding Hongxing in the backline, the mainstay, Van der Sar is also very good, every time there is no danger, Van Gaal can't help but be glad that he has discovered Ding Hongxing's talent to play center back, if there is no him today, what can I do?

After watching for nearly half an hour, Van Gaal gradually found that after withstanding Utrecht's three-board axe, Ajax's young backline under the command of Ding Hongxing became more and more clear-eyed, although the danger was still the same, but they were no longer panicked, and the defense slowly seemed calm, and more and more resilient, no longer simply beaten, but hidden needles.

Of course, this needle is Ding Hongxing's long pass, Ding Hongxing is in the backfield, you can look at the overall situation and find the loopholes in the opponent's defense line, and in the backfield, the space is relatively open, the opponent's pressing is not so fierce, Ding Hongxing can calmly send a long pass, and deliver the shells to the weakest link in the Utrecht defense line.

Although Ajax are all substitutes on the field, they still have some strength in the attacking line, Van Watson, a striker, cannot play the main force in Ajax, but he has a good confrontation ability against Utrecht's defenders, while Musampa and Nording. Wolter's two wingers are not bad, and if Utrecht press too high, their counter-attacks can still pose a big threat to the opponent, and if it is a single knife every time, then Monte can also score one.
