77. Take down Ajax (ask for recommendation, ask for collection, ask for subscription)

Moen, the referee from Norway, blew the whistle for the start of the game, and the two sides immediately got into the game.

Wen Sheng soon became very surprised, he did not expect De Boer to change in this game, they did not press much in the front, and the midfield always stood firmly in the defensive position.

Apparently De Boer also knows that his Ajax is now on the edge of the cliff, and the slightest mistake will be out early, and he now desperately needs to get a point, even if it is a point, at least one point can delay Manchester City's progress, and one point will at least make Manchester City have to do their best in all the next games, so that Ajax can hope to survive in the cracks.

Manchester City's side instead adopted the tactical policy of moving forward and pressing high, which was completely unexpected by De Boer, after all, whether it was against Real Madrid or Dortmund, Manchester City relied on health to suppress the opponent, and Wen Sheng gave De Boer the impression of a conservative manager.

As everyone knows, football has developed to the present, Wensheng is the trend of the future head coach, judging the situation and being flexible is the future of an excellent head coach, Wensheng has always paid attention to the details of the adjustment was ignored by De Boer, he does not know that Wensheng is not a head coach who adheres to a certain tactical concept at all.

Ajax fell into passivity from the opening moment, Manchester City's attacking transfer ball was fast and sharp, and the big attackers in the front court seemed to get the ball and pass as they wanted, creating variables for the game, crosses and crosses, straight balls, low balls, high balls, Manchester City's extremely aggressive style of play can only be seen against the Premier League underdogs.

Of course, Wensheng also has to thank his players, Manchester City's players are undoubtedly a group of very talented players, and the tactical adaptability is very strong.

kept attacking the Ajax penalty area, and Ajax quickly couldn't withstand it.

In the twelfth minute, Zabaleta crossed, Dzeko headed back, and De Bruyne burst into the box to give Manchester City a 1-0 lead away from home.

De Boer was anxious, he had already made some changes, he didn't expect his team to be so miserable, and he was helpless to be suppressed by Manchester City's fast attack.

The change in traditional philosophy is not overnight, Ajax players have been good at playing in their own way for a long time, and only make some changes when they are on the field, how can it be so smooth?!

It stands to reason that a coach like De Boer, who has been trained in European competitions in the coaching era when he was a player, should know that the Champions League is not so easy, but being a coach and being a player are really two different things, De Boer really can't think of a way, so he can only blindly let his players pay attention to defensive retreat.

Wen Sheng did not start to recuperate, a one-goal lead is not safe, not to mention that taking advantage of the lack of unity in tactical thinking of the Ajax players, he feels that Manchester City should further strengthen the offensive, the so-called "take advantage of your illness to kill you!" ”

In the 36th minute, Manchester City scored again, this time also on the side, Silva and Klich made a one-two on the side, shook off Van Rijen and crossed, Dzeko rubbed the ball into the far corner, this ball brought a bit of luck, but almost kicked Ajax into the abyss.

The goal was not the end of the game, and it was still a delicate combination between Klich's Silva at the end of the first half, with Klich crossing from the bottom of the box and Aguero hitting the far end as City knocked on the door of Ajax for the third time.

At 3:0, De Boer's face turned pale, he didn't expect his team to be defenseless in front of Manchester City.

At the end of the first half, Ajax had just two shots on goal, while Manchester City had ten shots on goal, five of which were within the woodwork, and three goals were scored.

Manchester City's line moved forward, the interception in the midfield and backfield was really strong, especially the player Dembele, Wensheng gave him the task a bit similar to Kante during the Crystal Palace period, moving horizontally and vertically quite quickly, and the tackles were also very active, the most important thing is that this kid has much better dribbling ability and ball control skills than Kante, and has played Ajax's players several times.

Wen Sheng was very satisfied with the score in the first half and the state of the players, the score of 3:0 did not surprise him, if the opponent is West Bromwich Albion, Wen Sheng feels that 3:0 can be called a surprise, the opponent is Ajax is not a surprise, in the first half Manchester City is in good shape, and the tactical use is very appropriate, Ajax is inferior in the tactical arrangement, the players are not very good, full of loopholes, it is normal for them to lose the ball.

In the second half, Manchester City began to adjust their combat policy, it was time to recuperate, the score of 3:0 made Wen Sheng confident that the team can get three points, considering the dense schedule ahead, he always has to consider the physical fitness of the players, after all, the first 45 minutes of the players running distance is quite long, and the continuous running is very tiring.

After the recuperation, Ajax's side was humiliated and gradually began to be able to create sporadic threats for Manchester City, Eriksen's performance has improved greatly, Wen Sheng was unmoved, and before the 67th minute, he made substitutions one after another, replacing Zabaleta with Milner, and then replacing the goal-scorer Dzeko with Nasri, and the team changed to 4231.

In the 76th minute, Babbel stole the ball in front of the ball in time Melo, Eriksen just took advantage of their entanglement, a long shot from the outside of the penalty area, the ball hit Savic to refract the goal, and pulled back a city for Ajax, but only three minutes after this goal, in the 79th minute, Manchester City quickly counterattacked, Aguero successfully countered offside, went to the meeting alone, shook off Vermeer and scored an empty goal to help Manchester City rewrite the score to 4:1.

De Boer spotted a problem when his own team was behind, and he was always behind the opposition manager no matter what the tactical adjustments on the spot, and he now finally had to convince Wen Sheng, the youngest Premier League champion, that he really had a few brushes.

He was now questioning whether he had done enough pre-match preparations, and it was too late for Moen to blow the final whistle and the score was fixed at 1-4, as the Eredivisie champions lost all three of their group games.

In the other game in the same group, Real Madrid lost 1:2 away to the Bundesliga champion Dortmund, so Manchester City and Dortmund still occupy the top two with 7 points, Real Madrid is third with 3 points, Ajax is in the bottom with zero points, Ajax still has hope of qualifying, but this hope is really a bit slim, they need to win all the next three rounds to have the possibility of qualifying, and winning all of them depends on the faces of other teams.

"I'm disappointed with the result, we didn't show our style! Qualifying is still possible, and then we have to win! De Boer was still stubborn after the game and did not admit that Ajax had been declared out.
