Chapter 194: UEFA Super Cup (7)

After seeing the score become 2-0, Van Gaal was no longer as anxious as before, and did not yell on the sidelines to command the players on the field, but sat on the coach's bench, with his hands on his chest, watching the game on the field with a blank face, and at the same time he called several players from the bench and kicked them out to warm up.

"Hey, Van Gaal, he shouldn't be planning to give up the game......" Zhuang Mingge, who noticed what was happening on the sidelines, was a little speechless, Fiorentina had just scored the second goal, and was about to score a few more in one go, but Ajax over there raised the white flag at this time - we admit that we can't beat you, we won't play!

Johansson, who was sitting in another box, also saw the move of the Ajax manager, of course he knows what this means after so many years of football, and he sank his face with some displeasure, the plan to reform the European Super Cup was finally passed by him in the name of the president, and as a result, there was a negative game signal in the first game after the restructuring, which made UEFA continue to promote this event to a large fan base?

Although the situation on the field was one-sided in the previous dozens of minutes, the two sides attacked and defended, and the scene was still very intense, which could attract the attention of many people. After all, the charm of football is not how many goals are scored in a game, if you want to see the goal, it is better to watch the basketball game instead, basketball is possible for both sides to score more than 100 goals in a game, and the charm of football lies in the process of the game, the fierce confrontation between the two teams and the cooperation between the plum blossoms, as well as the wonderful passing and defense, is the most attractive part of football.

As a result, now that Ajax has given up the game, the fierce scene can no longer be seen, so the attraction of this game to the audience will be greatly reduced, not to mention that this is the first European Super Cup after the restructuring, in case the name of "chicken ribs" is nailed to this event, UEFA even if it has the ability to pass the sky, there is no way to reverse the impression of fans on it.

This is like the later UEFA Cup and the so-called Europa League after the restructuring, no matter how much UEFA publicizes and vigorously promotes, the attraction and attention of this event to fans will always be in a half-dead state, take Zhuang Mingge before the crossing, if there is no team he likes to participate in this competition, he will pay attention to which team Zuihou won the championship......

Damn Ajax, in order to take care of your emotions before, I deliberately put you in a weaker group, but I didn't expect you to give me so little face, this season has you to see! Johansson sat in the box and thought hatefully.

But if you think about it, Van Gaal's move, if you look at it purely from a competitive point of view, it doesn't seem to be wrong.

First of all, Ajax, as the winner of the European Champions Cup last season, especially the team that upset the Milan dynasty, although it was divided by a large group of giants in the summer, many main players, but Ajax's heritage and player development system are still there, as long as there are these two, they can continue to produce high-quality stars.

Therefore, it is certainly impossible to say that Van Gaal and his Ajax are not in the spotlight at all, because no one knows if Ajax will have another super rookie like Kluivert this season.

Everyone knows that if you want to go further in this knockout cup competition, the less obtrusive the better, because the more popular the team, the more thoroughly others will study you, and some loopholes and weaknesses will be easier to be discovered, and the law of "big heat must die" is also based on this.

Therefore, Van Gaal does not want to win this UEFA Super Cup, but he does not want to fight hard in this UEFA Super Cup without many hole cards, and of course the hole cards must be left for the critical time, so a game like the UEFA Super Cup that does not have much profit is obviously not among them.

Therefore, in order to go further in the more lucrative European Champions Cup this season, Van Gaal will not choose to use all the means of Ajax in this game, and a team whose cards are seen through will certainly not go far. In other words, if Ajax does not perform very well in the UEFA Super Cup or even loses, those Champions League winning teams will inevitably ignore Ajax to some extent, and the so-called low-key accumulation of character is this reason.

After the players on the sidelines finished warming up, Van Gaal immediately replaced the older Laudrup, Ovemas who spent most of the game on the flank, and Finn Littmanning, a move that officially announced that Ajax had given up the fight for the UEFA Super Cup.

After seeing Ajax's substitution, Ranieri also cooperated very well to replace Djokaeff and Effenberg with Rui Costa and Tomasi, and then replaced Ronaldo, who scored twice in the game, with Davies, and replaced a defensive midfielder with a striker

After the three main attackers were off the field, the weak attack of the Ajax team could no longer shake the Fiorentina defense, and Fiorentina seemed to be satisfied with the 2-0 score, so that after the game, many commentators believed that Ajax's premature admission of defeat was the main culprit for the boring game......

However, both sides of the game did not care much, Fiorentina are very happy with the title, and Van Gaal has also used a game to know what his team still lacks, for the ambitious Van Gaal and the Ajax who are not willing to settle down, it is a good deal to find potential problems at the cost of a less important trophy.

When Friske blew the final whistle, the 5,000 Fiorentina fans who had come to watch the game erupted in a huge cheer! They are cheering for their favourite team to win another trophy!

Although dissatisfied with Ajax's negative actions in the second half of the game, Johansson, who holds the high position of UEFA president, will not show his dissatisfaction

Batistuta, captain of the team, lifted the UEFA Super Cup trophy high to the cheers of the Fiorentina fans!

At this moment, Fiorentina is the king of kings in European football!
