Chapter 154 Change Yang Yang? [Second Update of the Guarantee, Please Subscribe to a Monthly Pass]

On the evening of April 21st, Amsterdam Arena.

Both teams entered the Champions League semi-finals after successive hard battles, and both sides attached great importance to this game.

Ronald Koeman and Deschamps, the two young coaches, both laid out targeted starting tactics.

Monaco, who played away from home, took the lead in launching the attack, using the speed and personal ability of the striker Giuli to create threats frequently from the beginning of the game, and in the second and fourth minutes, two consecutive dangerous situations were created, one of which was almost a direct pass. A single-handed shot was formed, but at the critical moment, Escud made a decisive clearance in the penalty area.

Then Ajax quickly stabilized their position, using their home advantage and passing possession advantage to stabilize the rhythm, and effectively formed a defense against the opponent's flanks, forcing Monaco's subsequent attack to be difficult to create a threat.

Morientes and Giuly each were offside twice afterwards, which shows that the offside trap that Ajax focused on before the game was quite effective.

In the first ten minutes, Ajax had only one shot, from Van der Vaart, but it failed to pose a threat.

However, under the watchful eye of Trabelsi, Monaco's left wing Rotten was also restricted and lost his threat, so that the tridents of Rotten, Morientes and Giuli, which Deschamps relied on, could not be produced. Threat.

Both teams put out well-targeted tactics, and both played an important role. It was difficult for anyone to break through the opponent's defense line in the game, which made the game a bit dull although it was intense.

Both sides were very engaged, trying to break through the other's defenses, but at the same time trying to avoid mistakes.

But in the 31st minute, Ajax launched a counterattack.

Left-back Maxwell dribbled the ball across the center line and passed to Van der Vaart in the middle.

The Ajax captain dribbled the ball all the way forward, suddenly on the left, to Wesley Sonk, the Belgian got the ball on the left and was closely guarded by the opposing right-back Ibala. The ball accidentally touched Ibala's foot and failed to fly to the penalty area to find Ibrahimovic, but landed on the left side of the penalty area.

Van der Vaart quickly caught up from behind, got ahead of everyone, unloaded the ball and volleyed with his left foot.

The ball hit Monaco's goal with great speed, and Ajax took the lead in breaking the deadlock on the field.

All the fans in the audience cheered wildly and kept shouting Van der Vaart's name.

All the Ajax players also rushed out of the field, hugging with Van der Vaart, celebrating the hard-earned goal.

Yang Yang sat on the bench and watched Van der Vaart score a goal with his own eyes. He jumped up and applauded vigorously.

"It's so beautiful!" Yang Yang exclaimed sincerely.

The ball seems to have made mistakes by Monaco, but in fact Van der Vaart's personal ability is also very important.

At that time, Monaco's defense was just a little bit empty. If Van der Vaart didn't stop the ball well, it would be too late to adjust again. The defending players came over, and Van der Vaart's handling was quite clever. Playing, it did not give Monaco's central defender time to react and a chance to make up for it.

"It's good to stop the ball, that's great!" Yang Yang said with an envious smile.

Van der Vaart is recognized as the best player in the Ajax team in terms of basic skills and stopping the ball. At his level, even in European football, it is definitely second to none.

"Don't be envious, continue to practice hard, and you will definitely be able to practice well." Fermaelen laughed beside him.

Yang Yang nodded, he also felt that he should strengthen the training of stopping the ball as soon as possible.

More than a month ago, Lao Bing from the super training ground raised the defender who accompanies him every night to the Eredivisie level. This is also to further help Yang Yang familiarize himself with the game and rhythm of the Eredivisie.

Since joining Ajax in August, Yang Yang has been practicing [Ronaldo's Assault] and [Beckham's Cross], trying his best to improve the strength of the two star skills, but now he has a faint It feels like progress is slowing down.

Of course, this is also normal. After all, his foundation was too weak in the past, and of course his progress can be very fast, but with his unremitting efforts and the constant tempering of the game, his current level has at least met the requirements of the Eredivisie. At this time, if you want to be more diligent, it will definitely be more difficult.

It is like a student who originally scored zero in the test. It is not difficult to get a passing score, but it is obviously much more difficult to get an excellent 80. If you want to get a 90 or even a 100 perfect score, it is undoubtedly more difficult. Difficult.

Now, Yang Yang's progress is the same, the more he goes, the more difficult it is.

In addition, the two star skills have experienced the polishing of the Champions League. Thanks to the team's overall tactical play, they performed well. Yang Yang felt that he had to make up for another shortcoming of his own, stopping the ball.

Of course, whether it's [Ronaldo's assault] or [Beckham's cross], it's Yang Yang's base capital, and it must not be lost or slack.

As the saying goes, one day of practice, one day of power, one day of ten days of empty practice.

Yang Yang is very clear that what he needs most now is to continue to practice hard and continue to improve himself.

…………

…………

With a one-goal lead, Ajax entered the break.

Ronald Koeman spoke highly of the team's performance in the first half, believing that everyone played what the team had been training hard before, putting considerable pressure on the opponent, but he also encouraged the players, Must just try again.

The left flank played well in the first half, but the right flank was a bit sluggish, a question raised by Ronald Koeman's midfielder.

The main problem on the right side is that Trabelsi has to focus on marking Rotten. This player is the most threatening killer in the Monaco team except Giuli. Morientes has the advantage of grabbing points in the penalty area. Rotten's passing, he appears to be no threat, so limiting Rotten is Trabelsi's number one task.

However, right winger Victor Scola was not excited enough. When Monaco left back Evra frequently moved forward to support Rotten, he failed to grasp the opportunity keenly and seized the space behind the opponent to fight back.

Although Ronald Koeman did not name and criticize, he also proposed an improvement plan, which was a wake-up call for Scola.

After changing sides and fighting again in the second half, Monaco conceded a goal away, but they still played in a hurry. When the situation in the frontcourt could not be opened, the left back Evra frequently moved forward to participate in the attack, and Ibala on the right. After conceding a goal, Deschamps obviously reminded him to focus more on defense in the second half.

Wesley Sonk and Van der Vaart are both active on this side, coupled with a strong attacking Maxwell, Monaco's defensive pressure on the right is also quite large, where can Ibala be able to plug in again and again. ?

In the fifty-sixth minute, Monaco launched an attack. Evra on the left quickly plugged in and crossed the penalty area on the left side.

Ajax central defender Heitinga made a mistake in his first clearance and did not kick the ball far, resulting in a burst of confusion in the penalty area. Fortunately, Monaco's center Morientes started a little slower, and then he hit the goal. Heitinga used his body to block the bottom line.

Although they failed to score, Monaco's close shot still made Ajax break out in a cold sweat.

In the final analysis, Evra's sudden insertion is quite threatening.

Just four minutes later, Monaco made a comeback again, still Evra on the left, and cooperated with the left winger Rotten's two-to-one. Top, a header from 10 meters in front of the goal.

This time the ball rubbed the post a little and went out of the bottom line.

Two consecutive attacks have created dangerous situations, and anyone can see that there is a problem with Ajax's current defense.

The combination of Ibala and Giuly on the right was the most threatening, but was limited by Ajax's defense, but Evra on the left began to become active.

"Evra must be suppressed!" Ronald Koeman shook his head.

Luther Carroll also nodded deeply.

Sometimes a football game has a path to follow. Once Monaco continues to play on the left side like this, it will be a matter of time sooner or later to be scored, and no one can guarantee that they will be able to defend it next time.

Only by repressing Evra's point can Ajax's defense be stable.

"Change Yang Yang?" Luther Carroll asked with concern.

Ronald Koeman glanced at Victor Scola on the field and finally nodded.

Victor Scola debuted in the Eagles of the Netherlands and moved to Waiters in 1999, and in January 2000 Ronald Koeman made his first independent coaching career. One step, halfway to put out Waiters, Victor Scola performed quite well under him, and he was the sharpest right winger in the Eredivisie for two seasons.

In December 2001, Ronald Koeman replaced Adriance in charge of Ajax halfway through. In the summer of 2002, he spent a lot of money to bring Victor Scola to Amsterdam, but in the first season , he is more of a substitute for Van der Meyde, and he is far from the glory of the forward eagle and Waiters period after his appearance.

After leaving Van der Meede this season, Ronald Koeman has high hopes for this former favorite, but unfortunately, Victor Scola has never been able to find the feeling before, and his performance is unsatisfactory. , On the contrary, in the second half, the 17-year-old teenager Yang Yang was born, making the situation of the Dutch winger in the team even more embarrassing.

A few days ago, he took the initiative to come to Ronald Koeman and put forward the idea of ​​​​leaving Ajax. Ronald Koeman did not agree on the spot, but only said that he would consider it and also negotiate with the technical department.

But judging from this hour's game tonight, Scola is still disappointing.

At the 65th minute, after in-depth communication with Luther Carroll, Yang Yang replaced Victor Scola on the sidelines again. The fans of Amsterdam Arena gave him extremely warm applause. .

Young Chinese teenagers also appear to be high-spirited and confident, but Victor Scola looks very depressed.

This made Ronald Koeman feel a bit of guilt. Maybe if he hadn’t dug him to Ajax, he would have played better at Waiters and continued to be the core of his team’s attack.

But now...

Ronald Koeman quickly calmed down and turned his attention to the court again. He hoped that Yang Yang could suppress Evra after coming off the bench, while making threats on the right.

And the seventeen-year-old teenager did not live up to his high hopes, and immediately created a dangerous situation after playing.
