Thanks to "Kylz" for the tip! ――

Aside from the management and management level, there are two most important components of a team in the field of actual competition, one is the coaching staff, and the other is the players.

There is a good saying, a snake can't do without a head, and a soldier can't mess with itself.

The success of any team must be inseparable from the contribution of the head coach, even if the head coach's attention is not as good as the star, in other words, if the head coach is dispensable, then why does this professional role remain in football for a long time?

What is stored in zài must be reasonable.

In a competitive encounter, there are generally two parts.

The fighting style between the head coaches, most of the players on the court are also the implementation of the manager's tactical arrangements, and the means to achieve the goal of the game by the head coach.

In this Champions League match, Koeman's opponent is Carlo Ancelotti!

The 22 players on the pitch are, in a sense, pawns in the hands of the manager.

In the overall height of technical and tactical confrontation, it is the two coaches who give orders and decide how to play.

Koeman's vision for this game is to avoid his edge in the opening stages, and let Sicola do his best to harass and consume AC Milan on the right side!

Strategically it is attrition, and tactically it is also a kind of foreshadowing of the sound of attacking the west, and after Qin Xiong comes on the field, let Qin Xiong dispatch the attack back to the middle, at that time, there will be no temptation and harassment, it will be a decisive battle between you and me!

However, from the opening kick-off, Ajax failed to realize Koeman's strategic vision for the game!

Because, AC Milan made the first move!

Even made Qin Xiong wonder if AC Milan had planted a spy in the Ajax dressing room when he witnessed the development of the game!

AC Milan's starting point is none other than Kaladze, who did not play in the last game!

He happened to be the opposite of Sikora!

Sikora is a right winger, and Kaladze is a left-back.

Without waiting for Sikora to attack Kaladze, Kaladze first shuttled up and down the left side road repeatedly with the support of AC Milan's strong midfield control!

The reason why Koeman wants to use Sikora is simple, in the last game, Maldini did not contribute much to the attack on the wing, and that is because Maldini has struggled to complete the task of shuttling up and down as a full-back, and in view of this, there is the attrition task that Sikora shouldered in this game.

However, when Kaladze played full-back and rushed forward, Ajax's defensive system was clearly panicked!

A single back may not be able to guard against that handsome Brazilian, Kaka!

So Ajax has to play double midfield, even so, behind Kaka, Pirlo, Seedorf, these are all threatening characters who can rush to the penalty area at any time.

De Jong and Galasek did not dare to support the wings lightly, otherwise the middle would be penetrated.

And Grigra alone wants to defend Kaladze head-on, can he prevent it?

Maybe, but it's definitely not 100% successful!

Sikora must defend back!

His initiative is all on the return defense, how to consume AC Milan?

Koeman didn't expect that AC Milan, who was in a tepid posture at the San Siro, actually came to the Amsterdam Athletic Stadium and immediately played an anti-guest posture at the opening!

He didn't want to admit it, but the reality was so cruel.

Just by virtue of the shape of the field after the opening, he, Ronald Koeman, lost to, Carlo Ancelotti!

Therefore, Carlo Ancelotti is the Champions League winner, and he, in fact, is nothing.

Qin Xiong was also very shocked.

In the last AC Milan game, the back line was very solid, and Maldini taught Sicola a lesson, leaving him to do nothing, looking like a dazed and aggrieved child.

In this way, Koeman's strategic concept is based on the fact that Maldini will not take on more attacking tasks as a full-back!

However, AC Milan has taken the initiative to change in a position without any problems and hidden dangers!

This may be the wisdom of Ancelotti, who looks like a good old man, in the use of soldiers.

And when his hand is played, Ajax's grand strategic vision for this game can be declared completely collapsed, and all plans can be thrown into the trash!

Sikora went to the game with a mission, but passively he could only run after Kaladze and participate in the defense, which made him lose himself from the beginning, and he himself was anxious!

If he doesn't play a role, Ajax has to change!

Rarely, after only 10 minutes of the game, Coman asked Qin Xiong to warm up!

Qin Xiong didn't say a word, put on a special training shirt for the Champions League game and started warming up on the sidelines.

Inside the pitch, AC Milan made use of Kaladze's tactics of breaking down the left flank and got better.

In the 5 minutes of Qin Xiong's warm-up, AC Milan made two dangerous shots on goal, from Tomasson and Kaka!

All were created from the side of Karazei.

This forced Ajax to shift their defensive focus to the right.

After Qin Xiong finished warming up, he returned to head coach Koeman and listened to Koeman's tactical arrangements.

One wrong step, one wrong step!

Qin Xiong was originally going to be a surprise soldier, but now, the task that Coman arranged for him was to go up and put out the fire!

Steady down Ajax!

Van der Vaart's defensive enthusiasm is very different from Qin Xiong, and Van der Vaart plays in the front midfield, if he can't interfere and intercept Pirlo or Seedorf's back insertion, he will not be able to release the double back Galasek and De Jong to help defend the wing, this is an interlocking chain reaction!

If Sikora can't play his due tactical role on the field, then there is no need for him to stay on the field!

As a right winger, his main task is certainly not to fill in the defence.

Qin Xiong's mind was running very quickly, and he could instantly comprehend the intention of Koeman's tactical change.

He goes up, takes over Van der Vaart's position, strengthens the central defense, and liberates the double back, at least De Jong or Galasek can go to help defend the wing, and then, Van der Vaart goes to play right winger or left winger, Sneijder replaces, then, Ajax can re-stabilize the offensive and defensive system.

Just when Qin Xiong nodded on the sidelines, on the field, a shocking change suddenly occurred!

Once again, Kaladze rushed to the front line, but this time, he didn't break down, didn't cut inside, didn't cross from the wing, but in front of the penalty area, he directly passed the ball back to the triangle position.

Seedorf was there to pick up and then played the ball diagonally into the right half with precision.

Pirlo pressed forward in front of the penalty area, stopped the ball and flexibly sent it with a straight kick!

The ball rolled past Galasek, penetrated his defensive zone, and, next to Escud's side, rolled into the box, Shevchenko cut into the box, did not stop the ball, and pushed it diagonally into the near corner of the goal!

Despite his best efforts to block the near corner, Lobonte was slow and the ball rolled into the net against the inside of the post!

Coman was dumbfounded!

Originally, it was Ajax to fight the tactics of attacking the east and west, but AC Milan took the lead in playing the effect!

Karadze, the impact after the opening is just a feint!

The real killer move was still in the sudden transfer, to the other half, by the threat of Pirlo's last pass!

Andriy Shevchenko celebrated in the stadium and Carlo Ancelotti smiled kindly, as if there was no nervousness or worry from the first minute.

The Amsterdam Athletic Stadium is dead silent, and Ajax fans are hesitant, helpless, and desperate!

At least Ajax didn't give the fans any confidence from the table after the opening!

Score, behind!

At this time, Coman insisted on substitution, although Qin Xiong thought that Coman was decisive enough, but in terms of timing, it seemed that there was still a minute or two short!

You know, in football, if a player doesn't leave the game due to injury, it's almost impossible to be replaced in the first half!

However, Koeman asked Qin Xiong to warm up, which means that he will definitely make substitutions in the first half, which requires courage and decisiveness.

Now, with only 20 minutes played, he has made substitutions, how hard will the confidence blow to Sikora be?

Koeman can't care so much, if this game is lost, Ajax can almost declare the Champions League eliminated!

Even if there is hope, fate will not be entirely in your own hands.

Under the worried gaze of the Ajax people, Qin Xiong stood on the sidelines, Sikora lowered his head, and he was thin, looking a little aggrieved at this moment.

He may have done nothing wrong, but he was "humiliated" to be substituted in the opening 20 minutes!

Qin Xiong couldn't give him any help, so he could only hug him once with his arms and force, and then, with resolute eyes, ran into the room.

Maybe Qin Xiong himself didn't realize that the moment he stepped into the stadium, in the far east, on the land of China, there were countless Chinese fans cheering for him, being proud of him, and boiling blood for him!

A historic moment!

In the history of the Champions League, the first Chinese player stepped onto this stage!

And for the first time, it was against the best team of our time!
