Still in the away dressing room at the end of the tunnel, after the first half of the game, every Ajax player looked sweating profusely, gasping for air.

From 1:0 to 1:1, these are two very different results, and the players have different feelings about both results.

There is no doubt that the equaliser was equalised before the end of the game, and the Ajax players were disappointed and disappointed, especially the mistakes of Grim and Lucio, who have also been a hidden concern in the Ajax backline this season.

Grim is not young and often makes mistakes, Lucio is the angel and devil in the Ajax backline, and even the Amsterdam Evening Post has made such a statistic, if the points conceded by the mistakes of either of these two players are reduced to half, then Ajax would have won the championship a long time ago.

From this point, it is not difficult to see that the problems of these two players have been there for a long time.

Ye Qiu has always been not very satisfied with Grim, because the goalkeeper is not young, although he has strength, but his state cannot be effectively guaranteed, especially now that Ajax is performing better and better, the team urgently needs a goalkeeper who can stand in front of the goal and give the players confidence.

It is important to know that next season, Ajax will go to the European Champions Cup, which is more competitive and more stressful, and at that time, if Grim continues to perform like this, it will inevitably bring disaster to Ajax.

But replacing the goalkeeper is a matter of the future, and now for Ye Qiu, the most important thing is to think about how to beat Barcelona, that is the top priority.

'I was very happy with the way we played in the first 10 minutes of the first half, but after 10 minutes I was very disappointed because we were too conservative, we were only one goal ahead but we seemed to have lost our ambition and wanted to keep it 1-0 until the end.

'You don't blame anyone for the goal conceded in the last moments of the first half, I think if you want to take the blame, it has to be all of us, because we didn't manage to keep the pressure on Barcelona well, which led to their resurgence, and the last one taught us a hard lesson, who can blame us?'

Ye Qiu's words made the Ajax players present unable to refute, because after taking the lead, they did have some slackness, especially in the execution of tactics.

"I said before the game that we have to play fast in this game, use our impact to destroy Barcelona's defense, to suppress Barcelona's attack, but after we scored, we gradually lost control of the rhythm, which is the main reason why we conceded the ball in the last moments!"

Ye Qiu really needs to remind the players again now that when playing Barcelona, they have to break down Barcelona's defense and suppress Barcelona's attack with a devastating impact like they did in the first 10 minutes of the first half.

"Do we know why we can dominate the situation and rhythm on the field in the first 10 minutes?"

The perspective of the players and the manager is different, the players are on the field, they are part of the game, so they can't see the whole picture of the game, because they themselves are the dead end of the game, while the manager is standing on the sidelines, they can clearly see everything that is happening on the field, there are no dead ends.

Regarding Ye Qiu's question, the players had a general impression, but they couldn't say why.

'In the first 10 minutes we played more aggressively, first of all, we did a good job of isolating Rivaldo and Kluivert in Barcelona, which caused problems in Barcelona's attacking advancement and could not effectively get the ball to their feet, and secondly, we forced them to move the ball faster through high-intensity pressing and pressing in the midfield.

"In the absence of an effective point of contact, and to move the ball quickly, Cocu and Guardiola don't have many options, either long passes, but the accuracy is reduced, or find the wing, but Overmars and Luiz? Enrique was all on our defensive radar, so Barcelona could only be involved through Sergi and Puyol, or even De Boer and Reziger. ”

After listening to Ye Qiu's analysis, combined with their own personal feelings on the field, the players have to admit that the head coach's analysis is very correct, almost saying everything that happened on the field, and this is also Ye Qiu's arrangement and arrangement before the game.

It's just that when the players executed it later, it was greatly discounted.

"So, I have to remind you again that Barcelona's strength lies in their skill and individual ability, and our strength lies in the impact and the fast-paced combination of passing and receiving the ball, if we want to beat Barcelona, we have to play the way we did in the first 10 minutes of the first half, pick up the tempo and keep it firmly in our hands, and the central midfield has to form a strong pressure on Barcelona's central and defensive midfield."

After Ye Qiu analyzed this tactical battle between the enemy and us, the players also understood what to do.

When Ye Qiu said this, he also knew that he didn't need to say anything, and looked at Van der Meyde.

"Andy, you looked tired in the first half!" Ye Qiu said.

Van der Meyde's eyes darkened, and he knew his own performance, "I'm sorry, head!" ”

"Get Rafael up in the second half, you have a good rest, we need some changes to get the game win, you understand?"

Van der Meyde, though reluctant, had to admit that he wasn't good enough in the first half, so he had to nod his head.

"Rafael, in the second half you go play right winger!" Ye Qiu pointed to Van der Vaart.

The latter nodded and didn't say anything, but what couldn't be hidden in his eyes was joy and high fighting spirit.

Who wouldn't want to perform in a competition like this?

'We're going to have a crazy start to the second half, but I'm sure Barcelona will be on guard against our attacking and counter-attacking in the first half, and our left side will definitely be under their focus, so I need our right side to be more aggressive in attacking!"

"Rafael, you need to watch Sergi in defense and protect McConn, in attack, Sneijder has to avoid Cocu and Guardiola, and you are leaning towards the middle, ready to pick up Sneijder and Ibrahimovic, and give up your right side to McConn!"

Ye Qiu's tactical arrangement is not difficult to understand, and the players understand it after listening to it.

"McConn, as soon as you see the opportunity, you give me the confidence to attack boldly, no need to have the slightest concern, once you lose the ball, the first time to counter-rob on the spot, I believe that your teammates behind you can protect you very well!"

McCone has always known that the reason why Ye Qiu values him is because of his excellent offensive ability, but at the same time, Ye Qiu has always hoped that he can strengthen his defensive ability and adapt to the requirements of European full-backs, which is what he has asked of himself in the past year.

"Don't worry, head, I know how to do it!"

"Keita's position a little bit back, Gilberto? Silva paid attention to protecting the right side, and Lucio ......" Ye Qiu looked at this tall Brazilian central defender, who was swept away by Ye Qiu's eyes, and his heart was weak for a while, "You kid give me to be smarter, don't keep running forward for me, and don't want to play your messy skills!" ”

Ye Qiu's words made everyone in the locker room laugh loudly, because Lucio's favorite thing to do was to play tricks, and even his mistake was not caused by sticking to the ball?

Lucio smiled bitterly in his heart, were his skills messy?

"Remember!" Ye Qiu solemnly reminded him, "This is a League Cup final, if we win, it will be the honor of our life, but if the performance is smashed, I believe that your group of people, even if you die of old age, will regret this game!" ”

"If you don't want to leave yourself with irreparable regrets, then listen to me, at the beginning of the second half, fight with Barcelona!"

Ye Qiu rarely said this kind of heavy talk, so after listening to Ye Qiu's words, Lucio and the players all felt that the head coach was not joking, what he said was true, if anyone commits it again, it is estimated that they will have to sit on the cold bench in the future.

"Welcome back to the UEFA Cup final at the Westphalia Stadium in Dortmund, Germany, against Barcelona in La Liga and Ajax in the Eredivisie for the second half of the game!"

The on-site commentator restarted the commentary of the game, probably after drinking some water, and the tone looked much more refreshing.

"We can see that the players on both sides under the leadership of referee Collina walked out of the pitch one after another, Barcelona did not make substitutions at halftime, but Ajax made a substitution, replacing the right winger Van der Meyde, who has performed very well this season, with the star Van der Vaart!"

"This is a counterpoint substitution, I wonder if Ye Qiu wants to adjust the right side of the team? Because as far as we know, Van der Vaart is more of a threat on the right by moving closer to the middle. ”

The first half was a kick-off for Barcelona, and the second half naturally became Ajax.

When Ibrahimovic passed the ball to Robben, who quickly knocked it back and went straight to the back for Kifu, the Romanian international controlled the ball and watched his team-mate press forward, he also chose to dribble forward, and it was not until Kluivert's symbolic pressure that Kiv passed the ball to Keita.

Ajax took advantage of the kick-off opportunity to move forward steadily, while Barcelona first ensured the defense and retreated steadily.

Keita passes the ball to Gilberto? Silva, as soon as the latter got the ball, saw Van der Vaart running from the right to the middle to ask for the ball, and immediately passed the ball to Van der Vaart.

Van der Vaart is a left-footed player, leaning on Sergi with his body and controlling the ball with his left foot, the latter has no way at all, and seeing McCone on the right, he quickly rushes forward along the right touchline, while Van der Vaart quickly knocks the ball behind him with his heel.

"Ajax's right-back McCone sprinted forward quickly on the right flank, his speed was very fast, Van der Vaart's pass cleverly came to him, striding forward, Sergi gave up Van der Vaart, quickly chased back McCann!"

The Brazilian used his speed down the right flank to weave his way through Barcelona's defence, but this time he didn't opt for a cross, but after drawing Sergi over, he made a quick stop, turned, dribbled and passed back to the edge of the box.

Van der Vaart, after losing Sergi's defence, came to the right corner of the penalty area, and as soon as McConn's pass came to his feet, he adjusted and quickly dribbled the ball along the edge of the box to the middle.

At this time, the Barcelona defenders were taken by surprise, especially Pep Guardiola and centre-back De Boer, both of whom immediately realized the threat of Van der Vaart winning the ball on the edge of the box, which was too comfortable for the left-footed Van der Vaart.

De Boer rushed out quickly, Van der Vaart made a feint to get up, and after deceiving De Boer to resist sideways, Van der Vaart suddenly made a straight stop with his left foot and passed the ball past De Boer.

Ibrahimovic held Rezig firmly with his body and suddenly ran quickly behind De Boer.

The Swede turned his back to the goal, stopped Van der Vaart's through ball with his right foot, turned to the goal flexibly, blocked the approaching Reziger with his left shoulder, and then swung his right foot against the ball that had stopped in front of him.

The action that preceded the shot was simple and unpretentious, but the action after that was typical of Ibrahimovic's style, very hearty, very hard and re-shot, the ball seemed to penetrate the net and drilled into the goal.

"Wow woo woo woo !!!!"

"The ball is in! Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored twice!! ”

All the Ajax fans in the stadium rushed out of their seats, raised their arms and cheered loudly!

"Less than 1 minute into the second half, Ajax broke through Barcelona's goal again, this was the first attack of both sides in the second half, and the first shot on goal, it came very suddenly, but Ajax showed their own efficient attack, and very fast!"

After Ye Qiu saw Ibrahimovic score again on the sidelines, the whole person was very excited, and looked towards Bobby behind him? Harms gave a tight bear hug and raised his arms in a loud cheer.

The goal would have been a huge morale blow to Barcelona, who had managed to equalise at the end of the first half and conceded another goal in the opening period, which was bound to give them a sense of weakness and a huge psychological frustration.

Football is never just about tactics, not just about strength, but more importantly, about the execution of tactics, the players who play with their strength, their psychological quality, their mental state, that is the key to really determining the outcome of a football game!

Ibrahimovic excitedly rushed out of the pitch, first running around the stadium past the stands where the Barcelona fans were standing, which was somewhat demonstrative, but he soon found himself in front of the visitors' dugout.

The Swede opened his arms and hugged Ye Qiu tightly on the sidelines.

At the same time, Van der Vaart, Sneijder, Keita, Robben and other Ajax players also rushed to the sidelines, surrounded the two of them, and the players on the bench rushed up, and everyone surrounded the head coach Ye Qiu in the middle.

"It's a touching scene, isn't it?"

"Before the game, Ajax broke a shocking news, the club management privately contacted the Dutch coach Advocaat, hoping to let the young general enter the Arena next season, but now, the players have made a choice with their own actions, they choose to be loyal to their head coach and loyal to Ye Qiu!"

"Perhaps, seeing this scene, the management of Ajax should think about it carefully, after all, Ye Qiu's team has performed very well, he deserves more recognition and affirmation, and he deserves more respect, because he has brought out a young guard with very amazing combat effectiveness, Ajax!"

Ye Qiu was surrounded by the players, and the only thing he felt was heat, because every player had just shed a lot of sweat, which made each of them feel hot, and at this moment, around Ye Qiu, the heat naturally surrounded Ye Qiu, so he felt very hot.

But he was very excited and excited.

"Don't make the mistakes of the first half, guys!" Ye Qiu said loudly.

The Ajax fans at the scene created a deafening momentum, and Ye Qiu's loud shouting now may not guarantee that all the players can hear it, so he is not worried that the people in Barcelona will overhear their words.

'We have to keep the pressure on them, remember my words, only keep pressing and pressing them, only by limiting their attack, we can win this game!'

Ye Qiu's words made the players nod their heads in unison, and they were completely convinced of the head coach.

Not to mention that Ye Qiu is letting them continue to press it now, even if Ye Qiu is now pressing all 11 of them, I am afraid that they will all do the same, because this is the dependence and habit they have developed in the past year.

"Don't worry about Barcelona's counter-attack, remember, as long as we press well enough, tightly enough, then they can't have a chance to counter-attack, we can't let up any more, a one-goal lead is not what we want, we have to win more, we have to break the opponent completely!"

"Understood!" The players shouted in unison.

Everyone heard it and looked at it.

"Come on, heroes of Ajax!"

The players scattered and ran back to the pitch in unison, while Collina quickly handed the ball to Kluivert for a restart.

Obviously, as soon as the opening was the first wave of Ajax's attack, the first shot penetrated the goal again, Barcelona felt unbelievable, and did not understand which part of the team went wrong, but they also felt very frustrated, because they worked hard to equalize, but once they turned around and lost, is this not a loser?

Sometimes, this frustration and frustration is contagious, and the fact that Barcelona went from being ambitious to being empty-handed in the past season has led to a deep sense of frustration and frustration in their own right, and now, being led by Ajax again, has completely exploded this emotion.

On the other hand, Ajax, all the players realized that the head coach's analysis was very correct, so they began to devote themselves to Ye Qiu's tactical execution, coupled with the lead again, which made Ajax's morale like a rainbow, like a tiger descending from a mountain, and launched a round of indiscriminate bombardment towards Barcelona's position.
