Chapter 398 Dead Knot [Second update, please subscribe monthly pass]

March [-], Amsterdam Arena.

The second round of the knockout round of the Champions League round of [-].

Ajax hosts Real Madrid.

After the two sides lost [-]-[-] at home to Ajax in the first leg, and even the chairman Florentino stepped down because of this, Real Madrid has no way out.

In this game, they can only hope to win if they take the initiative and score more than three goals.

Therefore, Real Madrid has shown determination whether it is in the formation of troops or in their starting tactics.

Goalkeeper Iker Casillas, the defense is Roberto Carlos, Escuder, Ramos and Salgado.

After the end of the last round, Woodgate was announced by the Real Madrid team doctor to end the season early.

This also made many media reporters and fans feel depressed, because Yang Yang injured Real Madrid players when he visited the Bernabeu twice, and Raul Bravo, who was the first to be injured by Yang Yang, also sat on the bench tonight.

Guti and Gravesen are the double midfielders in the midfield, Raul, Zidane and Beckham are in the frontcourt, and Ronaldo continues to be the single striker. This is what everyone paid attention to before the game.

Many people think that Ronaldo is in such a poor state that he should be removed from the starting lineup, but Carlo still puts the alien in the starting lineup, obviously still has high hopes for him.

Not only Ronaldo, but also Real Madrid superstars such as Raul, Guti, Zidane, Beckham and Carlos have all entered the starting lineup. Carlo has obviously put in the strongest lineup he can arrange.

Ajax also used the [-] play again, but the specific position has been adjusted.

The goalkeeper is Stekelenburg, the defense is Maxwell, Vermaelen, Heitinga and Maicon, the midfielders are Pienaar, Yaya Toure, De Jong, Sneijder and Ryan Babel from left to right, and Yang Yang is the lone striker.

The difference from the first round is that Ronald Koeman replaced Garasek with Ryan Babel this time.

His purpose is also very clear, which is to add another speed player.

From this it is not difficult to see his confidence in the Ajax midfielder.

…………

…………

From the moment the game whistle sounded, the two sides directly entered into a fast-paced hand-to-hand battle.

Real Madrid came aggressively, showing the determination to break the boat and take down the opponent in one fell swoop.

But Ajax, who played at home, was also unambiguous. Even in the fast-paced offense and defense, they still took the lead in seizing an opportunity.

In the second minute of the game, after stealing the ball in midfield, Yang Yang pulled the ball to the gap to catch the ball, turned around and shook off the defender, passed the ball straight to Ryan Babel.

This was a very good opportunity, but Ryan Babel was a little sloppy when he stopped the ball, and he couldn't directly play the speed. Ramos caught up with him. After getting close, his body was suppressed and the ball was broken.

Yang Yang clapped vigorously to encourage Ryan Babel, and signaled him not to be discouraged and to keep going.

As a genius descendant who once performed better than Yang Yang in the second team, Ryan Babel tried his best to prove himself every time he faced Yang Yang, but he still failed to perform at a satisfactory level.

He knew exactly what his problem was.

To put it bluntly, he is not as hardworking as Yang Yang.

His speed is also very fast, his basic skills are also excellent, and even his physical fitness is better than Yang Yang's. This is why he has been regarded as a genius by Wuwu since he was a child.

But just like the counterattack just now, anyone who has watched the first round of the game can easily see that if it were Yang Yang, the ball would be very threatening, at least not like Ryan Babel, who was cut off as soon as he entered the 30-meter zone.

To put it bluntly, he is not as rational as Yang Yang in playing football, and his physical confrontation is not as good as Yang Yang.

I don't know when Ryan Babel has accepted the fact that he is not as good as Yang Yang.

…………

…………

Real Madrid quickly organized a counterattack.

After cutting off Ryan Babel, Gravesen quickly crossed to the right, and Beckham crossed, and Ronaldo's header from seven meters in front of the goal ended up in Stekelenburg's arms.

Like Yang Yang, Ronaldo's header has always been criticized.

Subsequently, Carlos shot a long shot from the left side of the penalty area, but failed to hit the goal.

Ajax also played an attack in the 5th minute. After Yang Yang pulled the ball to the left side and took the ball, he passed it directly to Sneijder who was inserted in the back row.

On the court, Yang Yang could clearly feel that Real Madrid's players were really fighting hard, and their condition was not bad, but it gave people the feeling that they were always short of breath.

At first, Yang Yang didn't notice anything, he just found it strange.

These stars are excellent in terms of awareness and technique, which makes Real Madrid's pass and possession advantage on the field very obvious, and Ajax can only be beaten passively.

It stands to reason that the skills and awareness are better than the opponent, and the players are willing to fight, so there is no reason why they can't play threats.

When the game progressed to the 10th minute, Ajax made a mistake in the midfield pass, Real Madrid made a quick counterattack, Ronaldo quickly started after receiving the ball, and drove straight in with the ball.

What is unbelievable is that De Jong chased all the way back and caught up with Ronaldo at the front of the penalty area. In the end, he dribbled the ball and shoveled the alien to the outside of the penalty area. Although Real Madrid was given a free kick, the referee did not draw the card.

Yang Yang was walking, watching and observing in the front court, and at the same time he was thinking about the problem.

He finally understood why Real Madrid would give people a feeling of being out of breath.

The physical fitness of this team is too bad!

If it is Ronaldo with excellent physical fitness, it is impossible for De Jong to catch up with the breakthrough with the ball like just now.

Even after being affected by the injury, Ronaldo's speed has declined. With his personal ability, it is not too simple to get rid of De Jong to score one-on-one, but he did not.

Not only did not, but after being chased by De Jong, he even dribbled the ball and overturned it.

Look at the reaction of the two after getting up from the ground. De Jong is elated. This guy is obviously proud of himself for overthrowing Ronaldo, but Ronaldo seems a little sluggish, breathing heavily.

It's only been 10 minutes of the game. Although the pace is fast, it's not enough to pant like this, right?
The only explanation is that he is too tired!

This not only reminded Yang Yang of what Ronald Koeman once said.

"Everyone says that Real Madrid's failure lies in the superstar strategy. The team's offensive and defensive imbalance was caused by the accumulation of too many superstars in the frontcourt. But in fact, this is just an appearance. The real core lies in the loss of control of Real Madrid's entire competitive system caused by the superstar strategy."

"There are many teams with unbalanced offense and defense, but there has never been a team like Real Madrid. What's more, as long as this team plays normally, who can stop their offense?"

"The real deadlock of the superstar strategy is that the team gives too many privileges to the superstars, and is too accommodating to the superstars, so that this group of superstars who have already achieved fame have lived too comfortably and comfortably, and the most deadly thing is the pre-season training and preparations, as well as the team's daily training intensity."

"It can be seen from many games that Real Madrid's daily training intensity is definitely low. This is not only not conducive to the player's state adjustment and improvement of technical and tactical levels, but also a huge damage to the player's physical fitness."

As someone who has experienced it, Yang Yang is very able to understand this situation.

High-level training can often stimulate the player's state, restore and adjust the player's physical fitness, and make the player play more energetically in the game. Ajax's veteran Garasek is the best example.

However, although the low-level training is very comfortable and easy on weekdays, when it comes to competitions, once you encounter a strong opponent, you often can't get excited, appear weak, have poor physical fitness, and very poor running ability.

The game is a reflection of the past period of training of the team and players.

This is why player self-discipline is so important.

The reason why Yang Yang can maintain a stable state is inseparable from his unremitting hard training and self-disciplined life schedule.

At this moment, looking at Ronaldo who was out of breath, Yang Yang couldn't help but feel a little lost.

He is only 29 years old, how did he become what he is now?
Of course, Yang Yang didn't feel that his idol had collapsed, but felt regretful.

Ronaldo is already very remarkable. He has come back after overcoming disastrous injuries many times, and he can perform at a high level every time, which is enough to make Yang Yang, who is also a professional player, admire him.

But in Yang Yang's view, he could have played better and achieved higher achievements.

He just needs to be more ruthless to himself, make himself work harder, and work harder.

In fact, the root of Ronaldo's feud with coach Cooper during his time at Inter Milan was that he believed that the Argentine's training was too harsh, and he couldn't accept it at all.

Perhaps, this is the nature of Ronaldo and many Brazilian players.

Real Madrid's superstar strategy also indirectly contributed to this character.

Otherwise, at the age of this group of superstars in Real Madrid, compared with AC Milan's Maldini and others, they are all young people in their thirties. How could they be so lifeless?
…………

…………

While Yang Yang was thinking about the problem and drawing lessons from it, the game was still going on.

When the game progressed to No. 209 minutes, Ajax intercepted the ball in midfield, and Yaya Toure sent a through ball to Yang Yang's feet.

Yang Yang dribbled the ball into the penalty area from the right rib. When facing Escud, he suddenly pulled the ball horizontally, intending to hit the goal with his left foot, but Ramos came to help defend at the same time, which made Yang Yang's shooting idea come to naught.

As a last resort, Yang Yang made a diagonal pass to the left rib with his left foot.

Pienaar quickly plugged in, calmly pushed with his right foot and hit, opening the scoring for Ajax.

One to zero!
