Volume 1 Chapter 105 New Van Basten

Tactics are always moving forward, although everyone says that there is no strongest tactic, only the most suitable tactic, but that is a comparison based on the same era and environment.

The tactics of 2013 must have been more rigorous and holistic than those of 2001, and even more efficient and rigorous than at any time in the history of football, and more demanding of coordinated operations.

It's like Barcelona in this game, Kluivert and Rivaldo in front are basically waiting for the ball in front, their duty is to attack, and defense is never their responsibility, Kluivert needless to say, Rivaldo is a Brazilian who even has to resist being put on the side by Van Gaal, will he be willing to participate in defense?

Overmars and Luis? Enrique is a winger, and they are a little defensive from time to time, but more often than not, they don't care what you do if they go past their zone.

It's a bit like Real Madrid in the first phase of the Galaxy Battleship, didn't anyone say it at that time? Real Madrid's midfield has only one Makelele and Raul defending, because there are too many attacking players, resulting in an imbalance between attack and defense.

Just imagine, Barcelona's defense relies more on Pep Guardiola, Cocu, De Boer, Reziger, Puyol and Sergi, but Ajax's defense starts from the forward, who is more dominant?

And when Ajax managed to move the defence forward and successfully suppressed Barcelona, then they invested more in attack, with Ibrahimovic, Arjen Robben and Donny van der Meyde all pressing the Barcelona backline, with Sneijder and Keita behind them.

That is to say, when Barcelona is defending, the midfield and backfield are basically 6 defenses and 5, not counting McCone and Lucio, who are often involved in the attack, which makes Barcelona as soon as they are suppressed by Ajax, they immediately become left and right, and the defense is very embarrassing, because their front-court offensive players are not actively defending.

One is loose, the other is rigorous, who is more effective, don't think about it.

Therefore, when Sneijder was next to Cocu and got a pass from Keita, there were no defenders around him, and Barcelona's loose defensive formation gave him plenty of opportunities, especially the holes in the backline, which he saw clearly, and directly tore through Barcelona's defense with a sharp through ball.

Robben's wind-like speed was offside, desperately sprinting along the left side, and Puyol was trying to chase behind, desperately blocking Robben's inside, so that even if Robben got the ball, he couldn't cut directly into the penalty area, and could only cross.

The Dutch winger was very fast, especially in a moment of explosiveness, and even threw off Puyol directly, easily stopped the ball on the left side of the Barcelona penalty area, and crossed directly without thinking.

Barcelona's backline is more of a defender that includes Reziger, De Boer and Sergi, who are similar to Puyol's characteristics and are more than brave, but their height is a huge flaw, which is also to cater to Barcelona's attacking style, they prefer to control the ball on the ground.

But when this type of player encounters a player like Ibrahimovic, who is more than ten centimeters taller than them, the pressure is naturally very high, so Reziger and De Boer are almost inseparable from the Swede's side and left.

Ibrahimovic is a very smart guy, even cunning, he saw Robben sprinting on the left flank, and he also saw Barcelona's young goalkeeper Reina standing on the left, obviously guarding Robben inside, so he did not go to the left, but ambushed the penalty spot on the right side of the penalty spot.

In order to meet Puyol, Reziger had to distance himself from Ibra, and De Boer was blocked by the Swedes in several battles with Ibrahimovic, and just when De Boer wanted to go around in front of Ibrahimovic, he suddenly found that the Swedes suddenly rushed into the small penalty area.

The distance was so close, and Ibrahimovic suddenly started again, De Boer was caught off guard, a little surprised, and immediately followed.

Robben and Ibrahimovic have been working together for a year, and they already have a tacit understanding of their own, and when Robben saw that Ibrahimovic did not come over to answer, he knew that he had two options, either to find Ibrahimovic at the back point, or to stop and knock back to Keita who was inserted in the back.

This time, he opted for the back post.

The Swede's physical fitness is very good, plus he just blocked De Boer behind him before, so as soon as he started, De Boer couldn't compete with Ibrahimovic, plus the Swedes were tall and thigh-long, as soon as they entered the small penalty area, they met Robben's cross and landed, and the whole person rushed forward quickly, stretched out his right foot, flew and slided, and directly stabbed the ball into the lower right corner of the goal.

Reyna realised something was wrong the moment Robben's cross came, but by the time he reacted, Ajax's goal had already gone in, and he could only stand there stunned, silently watching Ibrahimovic fall in the six-yard box after fighting De Boer, losing his balance.

“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!”

"The ball is in!!" The on-site narrator shouted loudly.

"The key goal at the moment of time, from Swedish striker Zlatan? Zlatan Ibrahimovic's goalmouth stab! ”

"At the beginning of the first half, less than 9 minutes into it, Ajax took the lead in breaking Barcelona's goal, a very fast counterattack, a very impactful attack, this goal completely broke the deadlock on the field!"

After Ibrahimovic scored a goal, he quickly got up from the turf in the penalty area, waved his right hand constantly, and quickly rushed to Robben on the left, who had opened his arms with a big smile, and the whole person kept retreating, and when he reached the corner flagpole, the two hugged each other tightly.

Ajax's Keita, Sneijder, Donny van der Meyde, Gilberto? Silva and other players rushed over one by one and gathered on the sidelines with the two goalscorers, while the Ajax fans in the stands stood up directly from their seats, and some fans took off their shirts excitedly and cheered loudly.

The live TV camera captured the scene, and it also swept the expressions of the two managers on the sidelines.

Ferrer looked like he was angry, and his mouth kept saying heavy words, while Ye Qiu raised his arms with a big smile, and kept high-five the assistants around him and the players on the bench in celebration.

Through slow motion, everyone can clearly see the scene of the goal just now, from different angles, it can be seen that there is no problem with this goal, from Robben's anti-offside position to Ibrahimovic's goalkeeper grabbing, this is a very beautiful combination goal.

"My God, it's really unbelievable, before the game, everyone thought that Ajax should choose to show weakness in this game and respond to Barcelona's attack with defense, but what I didn't expect was that the Dutch team boldly chose to fight hard, and not long after the game started, they took the lead in breaking Barcelona's goal!"

"It's so surprising, Ye Qiu's targeted tactical arrangement surprised everyone, Ferrer and his team were completely toyed with by this young Chinese in applause, now it depends on whether he has enough ability to reverse Barcelona's current disadvantage!"

Amid the cheers of the fans in the Ajax stands, the Ajax players returned to the stadium one after another.

When Ibrahimovic passed by De Boer and Reziger, it was obvious that he didn't need to look at the two former Ajax seniors with his eyes, because he still had a fire in his heart, and he wanted to blow up the revenge of the early part of the season.

"A lot of people say that Ibrahimovic's performances this season have brightened everyone's eyes, Ajax fans regard him as the most talented central striker since Van Basten, and Van Basten, who is currently working in Yeqiu's coaching staff, also believes that Ibrahimovic has the talent and potential to become a top center forward."

"We can see from the game that the Swede has different characteristics from Van Basten, he has a wider range of control, a more delicate sense of the ball, a very steady handling of the ball, and a more dexterous use of force and body, while Van Basten is much better in terms of central striker skills, skill and awareness in front of goal, which is much higher than Ibrahimovic now."

'Of course, we have to admit that Ibrahimovic is still very young, he still has a great career prospect, and if he continues to follow his current trend and progress, he may have a chance to catch up with his predecessors at Ajax!'

…………

…………

Sometimes, scoring too early isn't necessarily a good thing.

It's like Ajax now, scoring early, but a conservative mood has begun to appear.

It's a natural, unconscious emotion.

The opponents were so strong, so famous, so strong that even the Ajax players themselves were a little worried about whether they could beat them, so when they managed to take a goal lead, they inevitably felt an emotion.

I'm going to hold on to this leading goal!

Sometimes, this kind of emotion is very terrifying, and even Ye Qiu is a little affected by this emotion.

The pressure on him was so great that he felt that if he hadn't won this game, he didn't know what he would have done, so he seemed to be relieved after the goal, and he thought how good it would be if the game was over like this.

But Ajax's side is a bit of a loser and has begun to show conservative sentiment, but there is no way back for Barcelona.

As a giant in La Liga, they were beaten so embarrassed by Ajax at the beginning, they no longer had any choice, they could only choose to attack crazy, because they couldn't defend at all!

One side is lax, one side is resolute, and the situation is reversed!

If Ajax dominated the first 10 minutes, then their youth, their lack of experience, allowed them to slack off after taking the lead in goals, leading to a stalemate between the 10th and 25th minutes, and after 25 minutes, Ajax began to be at a disadvantage and Barcelona began to improve.

In the godfather cultivation system, Ye Qiu's on-the-spot command was piled up to 76 points by him, which is already very high, plus he has accumulated a certain amount of experience on the three fronts of the Eredivisie, the Dutch Cup and the League Cup in the past year, so he has developed his sense of smell and reaction in the game very quickly.

As soon as Barcelona reversed the situation, Ye Qiu immediately realized the problem on his side.

"I'm too conservative!" Ye Qiu complained a little about his gains and losses.

Of course, this is his own responsibility, otherwise, the same is true for the players, and even in the coaching staff there are many people who think like him, in the end, it is a subconscious collective behavior.

Ye Qiuhuo stood up from the coach's bench, walked to the sidelines, and shouted loudly to the players, "Don't retreat, press me down, completely suppress their offense, understand?" Press it down! ”

The role of the manager is more reflected in the player's successes and losses, he can play a decisive role.

After being turned around by Barcelona, holding down for a while and making two dangerous shots, Ajax finally made a sharp counter-attack.

The entanglement from Van der Meyde on the right side allowed Sergi to pass the ball to De Boer, Ibrahimovic tightly wrapped De Boer, and picked up the left side after breaking the ball, Robben used his body to grab the ball before Puyol, and stepped into the penalty area, but Puyol blocked Robben's right side, not giving the Dutch winger a chance to cut inside and get up.

Robben couldn't help but kick the ball before it went off the line, the ball touched Puyol's leg and turned out of the bottom line, a corner.

A counterattack is enough to deter Barcelona and remind this giant team that Ajax is not easy to mess with.

Because of this counterattack, the momentum of Barcelona's wild attack was curbed, and the game scene gradually returned to flat.

This is also a matter of no way, Ajax before the game finally pulled up the rhythm, after scoring a goal, gradually slowed down again, now want to speed up again, after half an hour of play, the player's physical fitness can not be satisfied, and Barcelona has already been arranged for Ajax's tactics, and then speed up can achieve results?

"Van der Meyde is in average shape today!" Ye Qiu shook his head and sighed.

Van der Meyde's performance this season is indeed very eye-catching and amazing, but at the end of the season, in this game, he seems to have ushered in a trough, which probably has something to do with Ye Qiu's use of him, because he is no longer in front of the opponent's defense line as before, but has to deal with McConn.

Sergi and Ovimas made Barcelona's attack on the left very sharp, and the two players pressed Ajax's two right players very this side, which also led to Van der Meyde almost like an invisible man in the first half, only seeing him in defense a few times.

"Rivaldo is also pulling to the left side to get the ball a lot now, and if we get Barcelona to play on the left, the situation will be even more unfavorable for us!" Bobby? Harms also reminded from the sidelines.

Rivaldo's best thing is to receive the ball outside the penalty area, and then rely on his strong skills, as well as concise and practical passing and getting rid of the ability, after getting rid of the defender, he either goes straight to the foot or passes and assists the striker's partner, and in the Barcelona offensive system this season, Rivaldo and Kluivert have had several one-two clever combinations.

When it comes to offense, Barcelona's offensive ability is beyond doubt, and Ye Qiu doesn't dare to underestimate it at all.

Ajax's strength lies in its impact, tearing apart Barcelona's defence with its fast-paced and concise passing and receiving combinations, while Barcelona's advantage is to push the ball up front through two wings, and then use the individual ability of the star to complete the most rear-end attack.

Therefore, the suppression of the two wings is very important.

Thinking of this, Ye Qiu waved his hand and signaled the players on the field to retract appropriately, keep the three lines compact, especially on the side, to firmly suppress Barcelona's side advancement, especially Ovimas who was active on the left side.

After adjusting the strategy, Ajax's defense has been consolidated to a certain extent, and Barcelona's attack has been limited, especially Ajax's complete isolation of Kluivert and Rivaldo from Barcelona's overall tactical system, forcing Barcelona's attack to become directionless again.

No matter how active the wing is, it is always necessary to rely on the tandem and connection of the middle lane, otherwise, the wing will not be able to form a threat.

"Ajax obviously reacted, Ye Qiu's tactical adjustments restrained Barcelona's attack, but now the tactics of both teams have caused the situation to become a little boring, at least compared to the fast-paced attack and defense in the first ten minutes of the opening game, what we see now is like a turtle jogging, very depressing!"

The on-site commentator was joking about the tactics of the two teams.

But this can't be helped, Ye Qiu is not ready to speed up the pace for the time being, and then attack, the best and safest way is to actively defend and counterattack, first ensure that the 1:0 lead is not broken by Barcelona, then it is serious.

If you have no choice, you will only end up with an uncontrollable approach that will only lead to the destruction of the team, which is the way that no manager will choose.

Ferrer also knew that Ajax counterattacked sharply, so he didn't dare to be too involved in the attack, but just as the game time entered the 40th minute, Barcelona suddenly pressed hard, and even the two central defenders De Boer and Reziger actively stepped forward to participate in the midfield's possession system.

The centre-backs moved forward, causing Pep Guardiola and Cocu to follow suit, and Barcelona's formation moved forward in unison.

In the 42nd minute, Barcelona launched an attack on the left, Ovimas attracted the attention of Ajax's defense and made a sharp stop to knock back to Cocu, who shot from a distance, causing goalkeeper Grim to get out of his hands, and there was a chaotic battle in the penalty area.

Rivaldo had already been ambushed in the penalty area, and as soon as he saw Kluivert take advantage of the chaos to sneak attack, he inserted a left-footed push and penetrated Grim's goal, 1:1!

'Barcelona finally equalised in the 42nd minute of the first half, it was a goal that came from Ajax's own mistakes, which is really regrettable because they could have gone into the break with the lead!

Ye Qiu also felt very helpless about this conceded goal, because this was a player's mistake, and the head coach had no way to calculate it, so he could only choose to bear it!
