Five Watches -

In English football, fans are divided into three categories.

The first category is die-hard fans, generally known as loyal supporters, this kind of fan's loyalty to the club can be called faith, until death, there will be no change in faith, and the measure of loyalty is the number of times they follow the team to the away game.

After all, there is nothing new for local fans to cheer for the team at home, but it is more troublesome to go to the away stadium, such as whether the transportation is convenient, whether the game date affects work and life, etc., so most of the people who can go to the away stadium to cheer for the team for a long time are die-hard fans and loyal supporters.

The second group is the general fan, who will usually watch the team's games regularly, mostly at home.

The third category is fans, who are less loyal and may choose to pay attention because the team has stars or a good team performance, but once the team is in a trough, their attention will not be attracted by other good teams.

A team has fans, a star, and of course fans!

This is very understandable, fans who like Zidane will support Juventus because Zidane plays for Juventus, and when Zidane moves to Real Madrid, these fans will switch sides, and Zidane chooses to support Real Madrid because of Zidane, which is the personal influence of the star, with his own independent fan base.

Qin Xiong is already a football star.

So he has his own fan base.

In addition to China's huge and terrifying fan base, in many overseas countries, Chinese fans will also become fans of Qin Xiong.

Among them, Qin Xiong's fan base in the Netherlands is the longest and largest in development.

Today is Qin Xiong's first return to the Netherlands after leaving Ajax. The Dutch fan base came to the scene, although they also joined the camp in support of Arsenal. But the main thing is to support Qin Xiong!

When Qin Xiong saw the group of fans in the stands with obvious skin colors and Asian American groups, they unfurled banners. Holding up his poster, especially with the image of him in the Ajax shirt, he smiled a little embarrassedly before raising his head in their direction.

The reason he was embarrassed was that the slogan on the banner was too exaggerated.

"Eindhoven, your Emperor is back!"

Obviously, the emperor has two meanings, one is the internal leader, if Qin Xiong played for PSV Eindhoven. Then this kind of slogan is clearly a welcome meaning.

But Qin Xiong used to play for PSV Eindhoven's sworn enemy Ajax, so the provocation of this slogan is very strong!

Perhaps it is recalling that Qin Xiong faced PSV Eindhoven three times last season, and he was very good and can be called a dominant table.

This "emperor" seems to be announcing that the king who once conquered PSV Eindhoven will come again!

It just so happened that Qin Xiong scored, which made him excited and also evoked good memories at the Philips Stadium, and it was here that he played a battle that established himself as the main force of Ajax!

Henry and Piret also saw the slogan in the stands, hugged Qin Xiong and laughed: "So you are called 'Emperor' in the Netherlands?" ”

Qin Xiong hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, it's that their words are too exaggerated." ”

Just because he is rational does not mean that supporters of his fanatical worship are also rational. In their eyes, Qin Xiong is irreplaceable pride, of course, it is inseparable from the fact that he is also Chinese.

PSV Eindhoven's players are a bit disappointed.

Thousands of precautions. Guarded against Pire, Henry, Ljungberg, but still not against the man!

Hiddink also sighed helplessly.

He saw more than the players on the field.

The players on the field may have thought that it was just a momentary negligence that led to Qin Xiong's flash.

"He's more mature than last season!"

Hiddink said silently in his heart.

Everyone thought that Qin Xiong had a sudden flash of inspiration, but after seeing his table in the Eredivisie last season, Hiddink, who had focused on him, didn't think so.

Qin Xiong obviously reduced the frequency of forward insertions before scoring a goal, he figured out the opponent's defensive strategy and inertia, when PSV Eindhoven successfully defended with their established strategy again and again, the thinking will produce inertia, and at that time, Qin Xiong's sudden outbreak of threat is to the maximum!

Hiddink would not suspect that Qin Xiong did it by chance, otherwise he would not be a genius, and he would not have been favored by Arsenal, and occupied the main position of the giants at the age of 19.

Hiddink paced on the sidelines with his hands behind his back, looking calm and helpless.

Obviously, the strength itself is not as good as Arsenal, and it is more aggressive than the opponent, do you still want the defense line to be absolutely solid?

How is that possible?

The more aggressive and offensive football giants are, the more opportunities they will give their opponents who are not as strong as them to create an upset.

And once the giants seek stability, it will be more difficult for opponents who are not as strong as them to create a zào miracle.

PSV Eindhoven is like this, and if it weren't for the small ambition to see if they could win the group, Hiddink certainly wouldn't have let the team play more aggressively than Arsenal, and it would be wise to catch Arsenal's counter-attack.

Arsenal didn't have to 'trap' PSV Eindhoven, they were forced to play this Champions League game before returning to England for Anfield.

How could Arsene Wenger let his team go to great lengths to make a sprint?

In the context of this game, Arsene Wenger clearly prevailed against Guus Hiddink.

Arsenal want to top the group, but they won't show it all at once.

PSV Eindhoven also wanted it, but they couldn't guess whether Arsenal's quest for stability would be a draw and a win against Rosenborg in the sixth round to secure the top spot in the group.

Therefore, PSV Eindhoven's attacking posture is actually taking the initiative to expose the goal to Arsenal.

Arsene Wenger was in a very good mood.

It can be said that in this game, Qin Xiong's role as an organizer and his talent to control the rhythm of the whole team are vividly reflected.

Arsenal have a good sense of rhythm against their opponents.

Unhurried to the game, defending in good order and attacking calmly, when the time was ripe, he suddenly unleashed a wave of lethal attacks, fast and accurate, and caught his opponent off guard in the contrasting rhythm.

PSV Eindhoven, which was behind in the score, had no choice but to increase its offensive investment.

Anyway, I have already lost to Arsenal in the first leg, and this winless loss is the same, and if you can fight back a draw, you can leave the suspense of the first place in the group until the final game of the group stage, and if you can fight back a victory, then you will have the initiative to lock the top spot in the closing game.

Qin Xiong has communicated with Henry in training, hoping that in addition to his mature and tacit offensive cooperation on the left side, Qin Xiong will support Ljungberg activation on the right side, and at the same time, when the time is ripe, when attacking in the middle, he hopes to be able to produce a "simple and rough" passing and running cooperation with Henry, that is, he passes, Henry shoots, scores, it's so simple and rough.

But in terms of means, if Qin Xiong only uses the most ordinary straight passes, this success rate may be very low, after all, it is the easiest to be limited by the opponent.

So he stepped up the curling ball through and wanted to try it.

Henry consciously cooperated with Qin Xiong, in the final analysis, it was also to give Henry a chance, specifically for Henry alone, and replace it with other strikers, Qin Xiong definitely did not have this idea.

But there is no suitable environment today.

PSV Eindhoven has three midfielders, Qin Xiong wants to simply pass the ball straight around the midfielder and defenders, it is too difficult!

It's just whimsical.

So he didn't try, but played Arsenal's well-established attacking routine step by step.

The game was not passionate, because PSV Eindhoven could not control the rhythm unilaterally, and they did not dare to rush up to put pressure on Arsenal to control the ball in the middle and back, so when the ball reached Qin Xiong's feet, if there was no excellent opportunity to attack, Qin Xiong would always stabilize the scene and organize the attack without impatience.

PSV PSV Eindhoven is playing hard at home stadium!

It's also very aggrieved!

The offense can't play efficiently, the defense is trembling, Arsenal is too stable!

If they are unwilling to give their opponents a chance and Ashley Cole does not provide assists frequently, then it will be too difficult for PSV Eindhoven to shake up Arsenal's defence with this attacking configuration.

By the time the game reached the second half, PSV Eindhoven was completely forced to rush!

They started pressing high and trying to disrupt Arsenal's rhythm, but as they changed their defensive strategy and became aggressive defensively, Arsenal began to change. (To be continued......)
