MTL - Starting with Real Madrid-Chapter 1257 Textbook level combat
Latest website: When the game progressed to the 26th minute, Leeds United once again played a quick counterattack.
The frontcourt advances rapidly, and Ajax is also retreating at the fastest speed.
In a hurry, Vardy in the frontcourt failed to stabilize the ball and almost lost it. He was forced to pass back to the midfield and reorganize.
But at this time, Ajax's defense has been organized.
Leeds controlled the ball on the outside of Ajax's thirty-metre zone, with Kimmich, Bernardo Silva and Milinkovic all deftly passing through midfield to control the tempo a bit.
This is actually the biggest difference between Leeds United and Ajax tonight.
The Eredivisie team is blindly fast on the map and plays hard, but lacks control over the rhythm of the game.
This stormy tactical style is also a major feature of Leeds United, but when it is time to slow down, Leeds United can still slow down.
As Gao Shen said to Pochettino before: It is not difficult to get up on the football field; it is not difficult to slow down on the field; Feel free to switch.
Slowing down the rhythm without losing the ball requires high technical skills of the players.
Especially in this kind of high-intensity game, the opponent will not give you extra space to control the ball. If the player's strength, cooperation awareness and running without the ball can't keep up, they can't control the ball at all, so naturally they will be slow. not come down.
This time, Leeds United slowed down in the 30-meter area of Ajax, and under the interference of the home team players, they made an inverted cross.
Arnold slipped in and Dembey tried to cut in, but Ajax's defense switched well.
Dembé didn't have a chance and passed back to Bernardo Silva on the right flank.
The Portuguese has been keeping an eye on the frontcourt.
After Dembele cut in to the right of the top of the arc, he suddenly dropped back, looking like he was going to meet Bernardo Silva.
The players of Leeds United cooperated very well, and seat B knew his intentions.
Tagliafico was drawn wide by Alexander-Arnold, and Dembey dropped back to attract Blind's attention...
Seat B noticed Vardy.
Sure enough, when Dembele retreated, Vardy's position ran two steps horizontally to the right of the top of the arc. It was not very eye-catching, but it was very important, because in this way, Bernardo Silva's passing line it came out.
The Portuguese stopped the ball to the middle with his left foot, and it seemed that he was going to find Dembey. At the same time, he also avoided Neres who was returning to the defense, but suddenly sent a through ball with his left foot.
The football is like a scalpel, cutting through Ajax's defense in an instant, passing by Blind, and going straight to the right side of the penalty area, and Vardy also started at almost the same time, throwing off the defender in an instant , slanting into the right side of the penalty area, catching up with the Portuguese's through ball.
After Vardy caught up with the ball, he didn't stop the ball and volleyed directly.
The ball went past goalkeeper Onana and into Ajax's goal.
"goallllllllllllllllllllll!
!
!
"
The whole process is said to be very long, but it actually happened in an instant.
So when it happened, the fans in the Arena didn't know what was going on.
But the ball has been dropped!
More than 50,000 fans uttered an exclamation in unison.
This is the charm of football!
It can affect everyone's emotions in an instant.
…
Gao Shen couldn't hold back this time, stood up excitedly and applauded Vardy's goal.
He's 32 years old, and this kid is getting more and more monsters with age!
"He is a typical English player." Van der Sar said with admiration from the side.
The Ajax chief executive has played mostly in the Premier League, so he knows English football very well.
"Yes, but after the reform of the youth training, there are fewer such players, so they are very precious." Gao Shen said.
This is actually a feeling that is hard to describe.
It seems that among the young players in England now, there are very few fighters like Gerrard, Lampard, and Vardy. They are really very, very involved in the game, and they are swaying every minute and every second My passion is burning my physical energy.
They have that fighting spirit that makes you feel the blood burning.
Their skills are not good, their creativity is not good, and sometimes their actions are rough, but you will not hate them, and you will even agree with their strength from the bottom of your heart.
"This is a problem." Van der Sar nodded, "In the years after the reform of German football, they have also encountered similar problems. Their younger generation has improved their skills and tactics, but they have lost the traditional spirit. gone."
"Could it be a problem of the times?" Gao Shen asked.
"There are factors in this aspect. After all, the times are progressing. It is not realistic to ask young people today to remain the same as in the past. In the eyes of many of them, playing football is a job, nothing more."
"But Dutch football has been passed down well." Gao Shen praised.
De Ligt is also a fighter.
"But you've also seen that in the past few years there have been gaps in talent in the Netherlands, and we are now reflecting on it." Van der Sar smiled bitterly.
Sometimes it is difficult to say whether reform is good or bad.
Traditional Spanish football is not the current tiki-taka at all, but a bilateral forward tactic, similar to that of Joaquin and Vicente, plus high center forward Morientes, Morata, Llorente This kind.
At that time, Spain played very passionately and aggressively, especially on the two sides, playing very vigorously.
But what helped Spain reach its peak was passing and possession.
From Barcelona to Spain in Del Bosque, possession of the ball has become more and more dull all the way.
Isn't it the same in Germany?
And England.
The youth training reform has indeed trained many, many young players for them, but at the same time it has also brought about a break in inheritance.
This is an irreconcilable contradiction.
change? Or not?
How can there be a double law in the world, and you will not fail the Tathagata and not the Qing.
"Personally, I think it needs to be changed." Gao Shen said with a smile.
Van der Sar was obviously stunned for a moment, then understood the profound meaning, and immediately laughed.
If you change, you can continue to live; if you don't change, you can live on.
Things like tradition and inheritance are far less important than living in the forest of the strong.
"Then you have to cherish players like Vardy even more," Van der Sar said.
Gao Shen nodded, "He's not quite the same as those traditional English forwards."
"How to say?" Van der Sar was a little surprised.
Gao Shen reached out and poked his temple, "He's better here, he's as cunning as a fox, that move just now was too coquettish!"
Van der Sar couldn't help laughing, Gao Shen's evaluation pleased him very much.
It's really cool!
Run horizontally first, confuse the defensive players, and at the same time create a passing line for Bernardo Silva, and avoid offsides. This is definitely a wealth of experience accumulated over the years.
At the same time, this player must have been pondering and thinking for himself on weekdays.
Some players have been playing football all their lives, but they are still stubborn. They don't know how to adapt, how to play when they debut, and how to play when they retire.
But some players are different. The more they play, the more they understand, and the more they play, the more coquettish they become.
There is no doubt that Vardy belongs to the latter.
…
Before the end of the first half, Ajax finally broke through Leeds United's goal.
In such a fast-paced offensive and defensive game between the two sides, goals are inevitable.
Tadic assisted Ziyech to score a goal and successfully pulled back a game for Ajax.
The two sides ended the first half with a score of one to two.
After changing sides to fight again in the second half, both sides did not make any changes, but continued to adopt that fast-paced offensive and defensive battle.
Especially Ajax's opening attack in the second half made Leeds United feel a little embarrassed.
But in the 57th minute, Leeds United counterattacked from the left, and Robertson drove straight in with the ball and passed it to Milinkovic.
The Serbian midfielder made a fulcrum on the left side of the top of the penalty area and passed the ball back to Mbappe. The French winger slanted into the penalty area and scored the goal, making another victory for Leeds United, 3 to 1!
But in the 61st minute, the crazy Ajax scored another goal.
This time it was an assist from Van der Beek, allowing Tadic to break through Alisson's goal, two to three!
The whole Arena is crazy!
This is the quarterfinals of the Champions League!
After that, Ajax didn't even have any intention of backing down.
Ten Hag replaced Dolberg and Huntelaar successively, and continued to strengthen the team's frontcourt offense. There is a kind of momentum that labor and management will not cut you off tonight and will never let you go out.
Leeds United is also not to be outdone.
Anyway, it's an away game now, and if you score enough away goals, who is afraid of whom?
Both sides went all out to fight, and in the 82nd minute, Ajax once again broke through Leeds United's goal with a long shot from the outside of the penalty area by Van der Beek, successfully tying the score to 3-3!
But the good times didn't last long. In the 87th minute, Leeds United took advantage of a corner kick and De Ligt scored with a header, once again surpassing the score for the team, four to three!
Both sides are completely crazy!
The Ajax fans at the scene also went crazy!
"This is definitely the best game played this season, no, in recent seasons." Borrell praised repeatedly.
The most important thing is that both sides are going all out to attack, so the pace is very fast, and neither side has any reservations.
In the European arena where more and more emphasis is placed on stability, it is becoming more and more difficult to see the offensive battle.
Moreover, the two sides are not just fighting each other.
Whether it is the technical and tactical level of the players or their personal abilities, they are all excellent, which makes the game smooth, beautiful and fast-paced.
】
The same 90 minutes, some games can make people drowsy, but some games give people a fleeting sense of pleasure.
Tonight's game undoubtedly belongs to the latter.
"Yes, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is really a classic textbook-level confrontation!" Gao Shen also laughed loudly.
Although he is a head coach, he is also a fan. It is worthwhile for him to see such a wonderful game.
More importantly, not only did Leeds United win, Mazraoui, who he focused on, performed very well tonight.
This made him more aware of his plans.
"Edwin, thank you for your hospitality. I hope we can meet again soon, and I look forward to our future cooperation."
After the game, Gao Shen took the initiative to stand up to shake hands and hug Van der Sar, Overmars and others.
"Me too." Van der Sar was equally pleased.
For Ajax, losing to Leeds United must be a bit disappointing, but they have long been mentally prepared.
But if it can cooperate with a team like Leeds United, it will also be a very good opportunity for Ajax.
