Chapter 1535 Yang Yang's Trump Card

On the evening of September 18, at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany.

In the first round of the Champions League group stage, Ajax challenged Bayern Munich away.

Yang Yang stood in front of the visiting team's bench and was booed violently from the stands.

Even though he has left Real Madrid, he is still the most unpopular player in this stadium.

Of course, the Allianz Arena will definitely not be the away game that Yang Yang hates the most, because there are Camp Nou and Wanda Metropolitano in front of him.

Sometimes, Yang Yang still enjoys this feeling.

Although they booed Yang Yang, the Bayern Munich fans gave a warm applause to Harvey Alonso, which made Yang Yang quite envious. After all, a player like Harvey Alonso is really not much.

In this game, both teams are doing their best.

Bayern Munich's starting goalkeeper is Neuer, the defense is Alaba, Hummels, Boateng and Kimmich, the double midfielder is Thiago and Goretzka, and the front is Ribery, Thomas Moore. Le and Robben, the lone striker is Lewandowski.

After Kovac took over Bayern Munich, he has been working hard to transform the team. At the same time, he is also stepping up efforts to support young players such as Jule, Gretzka and Gnabry, but from the current point of view, Bayern Munich The core combat effectiveness of the team is still a few veterans, and even Thiago, who is the main force, is difficult to provoke.

Ajax is still fighting with four three three, but because the midfield position is a double midfielder, it looks somewhat similar to Bayern Munich's four two three one, the difference is probably in the two wings position.

Goalkeeper Onana, the defense is Tagliafico, Militao, Dericht and Ashraf, the double midfielder is Frankie de Jong and Ndombele, Van der Beek is forward, and the frontcourt is three-fork The halberds are Neres, Jovic and Sancho.

Ajax's starting lineup is the same as the previous Champions League starting lineup, and in fact, Yang Yang really can't make a better one, because so far, this is the best set of starting lineups he has on hand The lineup is up.

Unless there is an injury, Yang Yang will basically use this lineup in the Champions League.

...

Both teams were victorious in the league this past weekend.

With the goals of Tolisso, Arjen Robben and Thiago, Bayern Munich reversed Leverkusen 3-1 after conceding a goal in five minutes at home, and won the Bundesliga for three consecutive games win.

It is not difficult to see from this battle that Bayern Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga is really very strong, and it can even be said that there is not much resistance. After all, even a strong Bundesliga team like Leverkusen has been beaten like this. Not to mention.

Ajax is also not idle.

In the home game against Groningen, Yang Yang once again arranged a midfield combination of Schone, Rosario and Odegaard. This combination helped Ajax firmly lock the possession rate and achieved a hundred With 73/7 possession of the ball, 23 shots were created. In the end, with Jovic's brace and Mullen's goal, they defeated the opponent 3-0.

However, although they defeated Groningen 3-0 at home and won the Eredivisie five-game winning streak, Ajax gave up the leader position because Eindhoven beat The Hague 7-0 away in this round.

In the last round, Eindhoven beat Willem II 6-1 at home, and this round won again 7-0. The overall strength of this team is indeed dreadful. The number one rival of the League One.

What's more terrible is that after playing Bayern Munich, Ajax will challenge Eindhoven away.

This battle will undoubtedly become a watershed in the Eredivisie.

But before that, Ajax still have to cross the barrier of Bayern Munich.

...

As soon as the game started, Bayern Munich took the lead in attacking.

Ajax just kicked off the ball and kicked the ball to the back line of defense. Lewandowski drove straight in, grabbed the long pass from Militao, and blocked the long pass from the Brazilian central defender back to the penalty area. Onana was so frightened that he attacked immediately.

A minute later, Thomas Müller pulled to the right, received a pass from Kimmich, dribbled the ball along the right, and as soon as he entered the 30-meter zone of Ajax, he made a diagonal pass to the left Find Ribery later.

France's scar face quickly inserted, and after grabbing the ball on the left side of the penalty area, he directly hit the goal from a small angle, but the shot angle was too small, and this kick was directly drawn to the side net, failing to pose a threat.

But soon, Bayern Munich made a comeback, and Thomas Muller scored the ball in the middle. After Robben got the ball from the right, he passed Tagliafico. Curveball.

But this shot was not fast, and Onana swooped to hit the ball out of the baseline.

With two shots in a row, the situation is getting more and more dangerous.

On the sidelines, Yang Yang also repeatedly signaled to the team to stabilize their position and not follow Bayern's pace.

But in the end the ball was lost.

Only four minutes into the game, Franck Ribery won a free kick from the left. Bayern quickly sent a free kick and quickly shifted to the right. Missed out on Hummels, who sprinted to the goal with a header from close range that pierced the Ajax goal.

In an instant, the entire Allianz Arena was completely boiling!

Countless Bayern Munich fans were cheering wildly, and all the passion was completely stimulated at this moment.

This also made the Ajax players feel depressed and even panicked.

How can you play this kind of game when you concede a goal in just four minutes?

...

"no problem, no problem!"

Yang Yang clapped vigorously on the sidelines and shouted at the players.

"Come on, don't forget what I said before the game, don't care about losing the ball, stay focused!"

Yang Yang's shouts from the sidelines cheered up the players to some extent, and they quickly returned to the center line of the court, ready to kick off again, but the players still looked a little bit depressed.

"Bayern Munich's opening three tricks are not easy." Harvey Alonso smiled wryly.

Especially Robben, this Dutch flying man is really too demonic, Tagliafico can't stop him at all, he passed the ball with the ball from the right twice, and he passed the ball with a direct curve ball once. , A cross is very terrible.

Yang Yang nodded. Robben's move to cut in from the right is his specialty. The difficulty lies in the fact that the defensive players know that he wants to cut in, but they can't stop it. The key reason is the rhythm.

Sometimes, earlier and later, the difference is very big.

"Nicholas." Yang Yang put his hands over his mouth and shouted loudly.

Under the reminder of his teammates, Tagliafico looked at Yang Yang on the sidelines, raised his left hand high, and signaled that he was listening.

"Pay attention to stand still, don't eat him, don't try to grab the ball, more importantly, block him, remember the special training before the game!"

Yang Yang conveyed his meaning to the Argentine left back through a combination of shouts and gestures.

The latter understood what Yang Yang meant, and gestured OK, obviously hearing it.

Robben is not young, he no longer has the speed and explosive power of his peak period, don't look at the way he cut in from the right just now seems to be very incomprehensible, in fact, it's all bluffing, as long as you don't eat him, It's not easy for him to get over.

Yang Yang chose Tagliafico because the Argentine has more experience.

If it was Ruo hot, then Yang Yang would probably have a headache.

"Ashraf, you are in charge of following Ribery."

"Tangui, you are responsible for watching Alaba who is plugged in later."

"Matays, be careful to block Lewandowski's widening and retreating."

"Frankie, follow Thomas Muller."

Yang Yang made several instructions in one breath on the sidelines, all of which were to adjust the team's defense.

The important point of the conceded goal just now is that Ajax's defensive players were too concentrated on Ribery's side, which caused Robben to create opportunities on the right. On the left side, that is, when Robben's side shifted, Robben crossed to the left side of the goal again, which resulted in a goal.

But Yang Yang doesn't want to make mistakes like this again.

Because he knows the problem of Bayern Munich very well.

That is the two wings that rely too much on Ribery and Robben.

There is no doubt that Ribery and Robben were the top superstars when they were young. They both belong to the kind of superstars who can carry a wing alone and carry a team's offense.

The combination of Robben, Robben cut inside from the right, and Ribery dribbled the ball from the left. This is the most troublesome tactic for Bayern Munich in the past few years, because both of them have super personal abilities.

But now, they are all old.

Both Robben and Ribery can no longer rely on their personal abilities to open up the situation. They need the cooperation and support from their teammates.

If it is one-on-one, as long as the defensive players are not rash, it will be difficult for them to find opportunities.

Technology has advantages, but without explosive power, they can't beat others.

This is what Yang Yang and Harvey Alonso discovered before the match.

Judging from the few games of this season, Robben's offensive statistics have plummeted. In the first three rounds of the league, Robben only dribbled once, and Ribery had three times, but his ability to create opportunities has declined sharply. There was only one key pass in three games, and no assists were formed.

There is another statistic that is equally intuitive, and that is violation.

It is very normal for offensive players, especially those with the ball like Robben and Ribery, to be violated, but so far this season, the two have played three games, and they have only experienced one violation by their opponents .

That is, opponents rarely violate them.

There are only two possibilities. One is that they did not create a threat, and the other is that the opponent feels that there is no need to invade and they can block their attack.

No matter which one it is, it can prove one thing, that is, the Robery combination is no longer as brave as it used to be.

Among Bayern Munich's front tridents, only Lewandowski still maintains a high level.

But Yang Yang has a very strong feeling that Ajax is not without opportunities.

As long as the Robery combination can be frozen, as long as Lewandowski can be divided, then Ajax must have a chance.

Especially Ajax's counterattack!

This is the trump card that Yang Yang focused on before the game!
