In the first twenty minutes of the game, Ajax had the upper hand on the field.

They play at home and get into the game faster, and with Arsenal's away strategy of defending first and then attacking, Qin Xiong will also have to contribute to the defensive line of the back line to make it look like Ajax's attack is more effective.

However, as the players got better and their form was mobilized, Ajax's attack suffered a clear problem: one side was paralyzed.

Babel plays on the right side of the winger, he is still young and inexperienced, and his personal ability is there, but in the offensive and defensive duel with Arsenal defenders, he can't take advantage of anything at all, plus Flamini's ferocity and Silva's sophistication, Ajax's right attack is not efficient.

This narrows down the direction in which Ajax's attack can be selected, and can only be played in the middle and on the left wing.

In the 21st minute of the game, Sneijder crossed the middle to attract the attention of Cesc Fabregas and passed the ball back to Lindbergh, who was inserted in the back, Lindbergh did not dare to make a mistake in the face of Qin Xiong's pressing, and passed directly, Pinal followed up in the middle and sent a through ball, Huntelaar almost responded in the penalty area, and Toure's immediate interception was very effective.

Arsenal immediately attacked, Qin Xiong ran forward in the middle, Toure passed the ball to Eboue on the wing, who passed straight to Reyes in front, Reyes found an opportunity to pass the ball to Qin Xiong.

Pinar did not chase Qin Xiong closely, but returned to the front of the penalty area in a straight line, the veteran Galasek is very stable, with his understanding of Qin Xiong, he will not make the low-level mistake of taking the initiative to lose the center of gravity, nor will he let himself fall into a lonely defensive state and be blown up by Qin Xiong with acceleration. So he's been retreating. When he forms a tight defensive system with the back line. He waited solemnly for Qin Xiong to come and attack.

After Qin Xiong came to the front waist line with the ball, he had no room to break through, at a glance, the distance between Ajax's back and defenders was relatively short, and the risk of breaking through was very high, and Ajax's technical and tactical strength was absolutely speechless.

His mind was running rapidly, and when there were no flaws in his skills and tactics, Qin Xiong wanted to tear apart the opponent's defense. Then you can only rely on a single soldier to blow up one point of the opponent.

So, who to choose?

Galasek? It is very difficult, and the veteran has a lot of experience, which Qin Xiong has long understood.

It doesn't make much sense to break Pinar laterally, because Galasek will be on the sidelines.

Fabregas can't be overly involved in the attack in this game, firstly, it is an away game, and secondly, because Ajax's attack has a threat in the middle, unlike some teams in the Premier League, the attack is based on crosses from the side, and the attack in the middle can hardly play a threat, so Fabregas can be freed up to invest more in the attack.

Grigra? Piret has already tried, and it's just as difficult.

Qin Xiong set his sights on another player who was not a full-back. Emmanuelsson.

Ajax suffered a shortage of full-backs and Maxwell was out for eight months with a serious injury. That's why coach Blind brought Emmanuelson back to play full-back.

Qin Xiong didn't know much about him, in fact, he only had brief contact with Emmanuelsson when he was in the Ajax youth team and the reserve team, and the information he learned was that the opponent was an offensive player, and his defensive strength was not outstanding.

Reyes hasn't challenged him before because Reyes has an awkward position at Arsenal and he has to be a team-oriented greenleaf to get the chance to play.

So he always wants to create opportunities for Henry or Qin Xiong, and does not dare to play casually in the game, especially when Arsenal suffers from large-scale injury problems, the team's nerves are tense, a small problem can cause a big mess, he must be careful to gain the right to survive in the team, not to anger the coach or teammates.

Reyes actively served Qin Xiong and Henry, which Qin Xiong understood in his heart.

He should do that, but it's a bit stereotyped, because in the case of Pire and Ljungberg, they know what role to play and when, and they effectively bring the team together as individuals.

Anyway, at least Qin Xiong felt that there was a good helper who could let him play a little.

He slowed down the tempo and then moved sideways to the right, strolling the ball to Reyes before continuing to run to the right front.

Reyes saw Qin Xiong's running position and knew that Qin Xiong had his own thoughts and plans, and he passed the ball to Qin Xiong before Lindbergh came to press.

At this time, Qin Xiong had already reached the right side.

Qin Xiong was not impressed by Emmanuelson, but the opponent saw Qin Xiong as if he was facing a big enemy when he came to his frontal defensive area.

How could he have forgotten Qin Xiong?

Qin Xiong went to Ajax for a trial on the first day, and he was Qin Xiong's opponent in the training match!

Then Qin Xiong rose like a comet, and he and many of Ajax's young players could only look up at the bottom!

Facing Qin Xiong, he was inevitably a little nervous.

He is not a defensive player himself, at this time he instinctively stepped forward to intercept Qin Xiong, Qin Xiong casually dialed the ball to the sideline, he rushed forward, Qin Xiong took the ball to the sideline position and suddenly picked the ball behind him, and then suddenly burst out of acceleration and swept past Emmanuelson!

Emmanuelson turned around and used his hand to block Qin Xiong's advance, but Qin Xiong completely threw him away after taking two steps, and Emmanuelson almost wanted to give up directly!

Qin Xiong is a lingering psychological shadow for some young Ajax players!

He undermined the confidence of those people and made them psychologically vulnerable in front of Qin Xiong.

Vermaelen did not go to the wing, he held the key area in the penalty area, when Qin Xiong overtook from the outside to regain control of the ball and then cut inside, he changed direction in front of Vermaelen and then dribbled the ball to the bottom line, shook the angle and swept the ball towards the front of the goal.

Thierry Henry was obstinately flanked in front of goal by De Jong's interference, his pace was delayed by De Jong's physical entanglement, but he still had a chance to get the shot right.

However, just as he was about to swing his leg to shoot, a figure rushed in front of him and cleared the ball off the line with a sliding tackle.

Galasek!

There was applause for Galasek.

Galasek stood up and directed his teammates to start defending corners.

Qin Xiong shook his head slightly, because Fabregas could not assist in a big way, and the middle defense on the back waist line of Ajax had no concerns, so when the attack developed to the front line, Galasek was able to decisively retreat to the penalty area to assist in the defense.

Ajax did a good job of defending this ball, even if full-back Emmanuelsson was blown up.

Qin Xiong found an opportunity to come to Reyes's side when he was attacking a corner kick, he made some gestures to Reyes, and exchanged words, Reyes understood what Qin Xiong meant, and nodded in agreement. (To be continued......)
