The Godfather of Greenery

Chapter 89 The only wealthy family

When the game progressed to the 86th minute, Huntelaar, who came on as a substitute for Zlatan Ibrahimovic, received a cross from Robben from the left and stabbed in front of the goal, but was shot by the opponent's goalkeeper Weiss. Tweed made a save, followed by van der Vaart, who was in the penalty area like a ray of ghosts, peeped at the right time, made a supplementary shot, and rewritten the score to 2:0.

At this time, Ye Qiu had no suspense about the match in his mind, but he was more thinking about and summarizing the match, because he felt that the match was always under his control .

Everything remains the same, Ye Qiu's strategy in this game is actually the understanding he got from the essence of some famous seniors in the study room, that is, never let your opponent, in front of them Play the ball at the tempo you are best at.

When Irving was around, Liverpool was best at defensive counterattacks. They liked to face the kind of teams that were overwhelmed by offense, and the teams that they disliked the most were teams that defended to the end like them. So Ye Qiu chose the latter without hesitation.

It is difficult for many people to operate in both high and normal defensive systems. This is not because they cannot do it, but because their players want to adapt to both defensive systems at the same time. It often takes time.

Ye Qiu led the second team to play defensively and counterattacks last season, reforming the overall defensive system from Rehhagel. Now, this system has been brought from the second team to the first team. Although players such as Lucio and Maicon have joined There are some effects, but at least the players will not feel uncomfortable.

Not to mention the high defense adopted in the Eredivisie this season, that is Ajax's home cooking.

Therefore, defensive counterattacks are used when Irving is present. When Irving becomes Fowler, Ye Qiu chooses to defend in a high position.

At this time, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Houllier made a mistake in substitution. He chose to make a match-up substitution instead of strengthening the offense. If he kept Owen on the court and joined Fowler and Smitch If you say it, Ye Qiu will really have a headache.

But at that time, Houllier should be thinking, will Ajax, who has been defending for so long, still press it out?
Dare to think of ideas that others dare not think of, dare to do things that others dare not do, Ye Qiu has always been courageous!
After leading 2:0, Liverpool has obviously lost their fighting spirit. Although there are still some players rushing and fighting, the overall defeat is inevitable.

Therefore, even when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the Liverpool fans in the audience were silent.

They didn't attack their opponents because they felt that their opponents won the game by relying on strength and tactics, and they didn't complain about their team, because that was never something that Red Army fans would do.

When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Houllier took the initiative to walk to the coach's bench of the visiting team and shook hands with Ye Qiu politely.

From the tightly clenched hands, Ye Qiu could clearly sense the sweat in Houllier's palms.

Ye Qiu has a good impression of the French head coach. Strength and tactics can tell the difference between a winner and a loser on the football field, but off the football field, one has to rely on character and style to win the respect of the opponent, and Houllier is very good at this aspect. Always good.

After seeing off the frustrated Houllier, Ye Qiu greeted Fowler who came off the court.

He will never forget the Liverpool striker described in the article [Abandoning the Shot] in the elementary school textbook in his previous life, and Fowler's strength is beyond doubt, but his chances are indeed a bit worse, but Ye Qiu stands in a pure football position. From the perspective of a fan, he admires Fowler and respects such an opponent.

After seeing off Fowler, Ye Qiu met with Gerrard. Ye Qiu had longed for this future Red Army captain.

After that, Ye Qiu returned to the front of the player tunnel and sent his players back to the locker room one by one.

A 2-0 away victory at Anfield was undoubtedly the best result for Ajax, and Ye Qiu was also full of confidence in the team's promotion.

He raised his head, and in the stands of the Anfield Stadium, he found Eliza, who was dressed up beautifully, and sitting next to Eliza was Huang Chu who flew from China to Liverpool to watch his game.

"It was you who gave me strength and won the game!" Ye Qiu gesticulated at Huang Chu in the stands, and pointed his lips.

Because he spoke in Chinese and did not make a sound, no one present knew what he was talking about, but the camera quickly shifted from Ye Qiu to Eliza and Huang Chu in the stands.

"Wow, what a beautiful girl, so beautiful!" The on-site commentator noticed at this time that there were actually two such beautiful and refined girls in the stands of the Anfield Stadium.

"It looks like they are friends of Ajax coach Ye Qiu, and one of them may be his girlfriend. Who is it? All the audience friends in front of the TV can guess together, I think That dark-haired woman might be his family!"

Ye Qiu just saw Huang Chu and greeted her excitedly in his heart, but he didn't expect that it would attract people's nonsense.

"What is he talking to you about?" Eliza asked with a strange smile as she watched Ye Qiu walk into the player tunnel from the stands.

She can understand and speak Chinese, but it is a bit difficult for her to talk to her lips.

Huang Chufen's face was blushing, but she understood a little bit, and her heart was sweet, and her whole heart was drunk.

Seeing her appearance, Eliza knew it was interesting, and knew that it must be Ye Qiu, that damned guy who was flirting with Huang Chu, so she didn't ask any more questions, but secretly guessed in her heart. , the relationship between the two of them seems to have been settled, did Huang Chu's parents agree?
As for the relationship between Ye Qiu and Huang Chu, everyone in Ajax knew about it, but everyone deliberately didn't say it, but everyone knew that Huang Chu and Ye Qiu were in love, so when Hu Yizinger hit Huang Chu's idea, Ye Qiu They were beaten up hard, and everyone didn't find it strange. Instead, they sympathized with Ye Qiu's act of protecting his girlfriend.

But only Elisa, who is a best friend, knows that Huang Chu and Ye Qiu are still separated by Huang Chu's parents.

As a good friend, Eliza also hopes to see Ye Qiu and Huang Chu together, because in her opinion, Ye Qiu is really a very outstanding man, although his biggest problem is that he is a bit sloppy in life, but this Isn't it Huang Chu's strong point?

…………

Ajax defeated Liverpool 2-0 in an away game. This game completely shocked the whole of Europe by the strength of this Dutch team, because Liverpool's strength this season is not bad.

Back then when Ye Qiu's team defeated Capello's Roma, many people attributed more luck to Ajax's victory, more because of Roma's own problems, but now, Ajax Jax beat Houllier's Liverpool, and that's something every team should take seriously.

In the first round of the UEFA Cup round of 16 knockout matches this season, the performance of the two teams was surprising.

One is Ajax, which defeated Rome and Liverpool successively. Many people have even started to shout the slogan of Ajax's revival, thinking that the Ajax youth guard led by Ye Qiu will Inheriting the fine traditions from Michels, Cruyff and Van Gaal, once again let the whole of Europe feel the charm of Dutch football.

Another team is Alaves from La Liga.

Mane's team performed well in La Liga last season, and the La Liga team encountered the star-studded Inter Milan in the knockout round of 16, but they played a wonderful match against the opponent 3:3 at home. For Aravis, who has no star taste, it is not easy.

Regardless of whether it is Ye Qiu's Ajax or Mane's Alaves, these two teams have one very interesting thing in common, that is, there are no big-name stars in the team, not even first-class stars. What matters more is the tactical execution of the team as a whole and the players.

The difference is that Ajax beat Liverpool 2-0 away, Ye Qiu became the hero of Amsterdam, Alaves drew with Inter Milan 3-3 at home, and Mane's team is likely to stop at the knockout round of 16 .

As Ye Qiu gradually became famous in European football, the domestic media also paid attention to the Netherlands.

As early as when Ajax appointed Ye Qiu, domestic professional football newspapers had already published this news, but more people had read it. After all, it was hard to believe that a Chinese man Being able to lead the Dutch football giants to success, many people even felt that Ye Qiu's leadership of Ajax was probably just going through the motions and the class would be dismissed soon.

Unexpectedly, Ye Qiu's Ajax is getting better and better, and their performance in the UEFA Cup is getting better and better. This not only attracted the attention of the European media, but even the domestic media gave it a lot of praise. reports.

The Central Party News even reported on the game on the second day of the game, and quoted some comments and reports from the European football media. This pushed Ye Qiu's reputation in the country to a new peak. So some fans began to look for Ye Qiu's past.

If you don't look for it, you don't know. After looking for it, those people who thought that Ye Qiu got into Ajax through luck and connections were shocked. They saw that the reason why their compatriots were able to run Ajax Such a giant is because they led the Ajax second team to make history and won the Dutch Cup.

Those who don't know may not feel it, but fans and football practitioners who are more familiar with European football are very aware of the difficulty of this feat, and because they know how difficult it is, they know how much Ye Qiu's feat is. The high value immediately set off a wave of praise for Ye Qiu in the country.

For Ye Qiu who is far away in Europe, the affirmation and praise of domestic fans will not affect his everything in Europe. If he can't win the league championship, he will still have to dismiss get out of class, and if his grades are bad, he will still have to leave. , so he behaved very rationally.

But it doesn't mean that there is no influence at all, at least when the matter of Ye Qiu's parents running the Yeji snack bar next to the Xiamen Railway Station was disclosed by the media, many reporters and fans came to hear the news, which directly caused the snack bar's business to boom. There was a fire.

Returning from England to the Netherlands, Ajax soon ushered in Fortuna Sittard. This team was brutally slaughtered by Ye Qiu's Ajax in the first round. No mercy to them, with the goals of Hleb, Huntelaar and De Jong, Ajax defeated Fortuna Sittard 3-0 away.

Last season performed well, but this season lost Hovland and other leading stars, Fortuna Sittard's strength has declined very sharply, and now it is on the verge of relegation.

In the match against Fortuna Sittard, Ye Qiu also kept his hand for the UEFA Cup. This allowed him to continue to play with all his strength in the second round of the UEFA Cup against Liverpool at the Arena Stadium in midweek. The main attack, and with Robben's goal at the Arena, defeated Liverpool 1:0, and eliminated Liverpool from the UEFA Cup with a total score of 3:0.

This year's UEFA Cup is still very important, and its momentum is not much lower than that of the Champions League, at least it is not the tasteless one in the previous life.

You know, Ronaldo, who was empty-handed at Inter Milan in 1998, won the European Ballon d'Or with the UEFA Cup. In Ye Qiu's previous life, the reason why Liverpool's Michael Owen was able to win the European Ballon d'Or in 2001 was due to It is also a full-fledged UEFA Cup champion.

As for Liverpool's other cup titles, the League Cup and the FA Cup are England's own cups. The warm-up match is a cup match, so among Liverpool's five crowns, the most important one is this UEFA Cup.

Also because the UEFA Cup is full of weight today, the competition is also very fierce. Not only the rich teams pay enough attention, even the non-rich teams also regard the UEFA Cup as a stage to show their strength.

After the end of the two rounds of the UEFA Cup, the teams that have reached the top 8 are freshly released.

实力傲视荷甲联赛，目前已经甩开费耶诺德，独守领头羊宝座的埃因霍温击败了意甲的帕尔马；阿贾克斯3：0完胜利物浦；阿拉维斯在首回合主场3：3的情况下，客场2：0淘汰了群星闪耀的国际米兰。

In addition, the teams that also reached the top 8 include Barcelona, ​​which is determined to win the UEFA Cup, Bundesliga powerhouse Kaiserslautern, La Liga powerhouses Celta Vigo and Vallecano, and Portuguese giants Porto.

La Liga has performed exceptionally well in the UEFA Cup this season. There are a total of 8 teams from La Liga among the top 4 teams, and among these teams, Barcelona is the most popular because they are also among the eight teams. The team with the most strength and stars is considered to be the only giant in the UEFA Cup.

Ajax faced Porto in Portugal in the quarterfinals, and the winners of these two teams will face the winners of Alaves and Kaiserslautern.

Barcelona met Vallecano, and the winner between them will face the winner between PSV and Celta.

Relatively speaking, Ye Qiu felt that he had drawn a good lottery, because Ajax's overall football had a more obvious advantage against a team like Portugal.

Sure enough, Fernando Santos' Porto couldn't stop the overwhelming Ajax.

In the first round away game against Porto, Ye Qiu still adopted a more aggressive 433 high defensive tactic, but left only one Gilberto Silva in the midfield, and arranged Keita and Sneijder at the same time Pressing forward, coupled with the combination of Maicon and Van der Meyde on the right, Ajax aggressively pressed the attack away.

Porto's tactics are 4231 double midfielder tactics. Deco, who will be in full swing in the future, will sit on the bench in this game, and the future Portuguese defensive core Carvalho will be loaned out this season. Qiu sighed very much.

In the end, Porto lost 1:2 at home to Ajax as a guest. Because Robben was absent, van der Vaart, who was placed on the left winger by Ye Qiu, scored two beautiful goals and became the A big contributor to Ajax's victory.

A week after returning to Amsterdam, Ajax beat Porto 4-0 at the Arenal Stadium.

In this game in Arenal, Ajax fully demonstrated the advantages of high-post defense, while Ibrahimovic used his physical and technical advantages in this game to fully suppress the two central defenders of Porto, and also put himself The advantages and strengths of Ajax are fully reflected, coupled with the threat of Ajax's two wingers to the opponent's wing, Ajax's offense is fully blooming.

With a total score of 6:1, Porto was eliminated, and Ajax successfully entered the top 4 of the UEFA Cup.

This time, Ajax encountered Alaves, the La Liga team led by Jose Mane, who is also known for its overall football.

The two teams known as the dark horses of the UEFA Cup this season met in the semi-finals, which undoubtedly became a highlight of the UEFA Cup. In another matchup, Barcelona met Celta Vigo, which eliminated PSV Eindhoven.

The promotion in the UEFA Cup is certainly exciting, but the team's performance in the Eredivisie is worrying.

It's not that Ye Qiu's team did not perform well in the Eredivisie. Ajax played a total of 2 Eredivisie games from February 25th to March 3th, and achieved 12 wins and 3 draw. It defeated Utrecht 2:1 at home, defeated Rosendal 2:0 away, and drew with Groningen 3:1 away.

It stands to reason that Ajax performed very well and has reversed its weak successor. Feyenoord, which has performed poorly recently, has become the second place in the Eredivisie standings, only 8 points behind PSV.

But the problem is that Eindhoven's performance is too eye-catching. They also have two wins and one draw. They still maintain an 8-point advantage over Ajax, and they have not made any mistakes in the process of winning the championship.

As the games progressed one after another, the pressure on Ajax was also increasing, because everyone knew that once the head coach Ye Qiu failed to win the Eredivisie championship, the agreement with the board of directors would automatically worked.

Unless, he can reverse PSV by 12 points in the remaining 8 rounds.

But is this possible?

Eindhoven currently only has the Dutch Cup and the Eredivisie League, but Ajax is advancing on the three fronts of the Eredivisie, the Dutch Cup and the UEFA Cup. No matter how you look at it, in the momentum of the championship, Ajax are at a disadvantage.

But when Ye Qiu was being interviewed, he still seemed full of confidence, because in the rest of the league, there was still a home game against Eindhoven.
