183 Fatal mistakes
Ajax's match against Chelsea began to create a clear scene gap.¢£
Relying on the team's richer and more advanced technical and tactical styles, Ajax's advantages are becoming more and more obvious.
Although Chelsea is strong on paper, under Ranieri's leadership, they have not completely gotten rid of the traditional British style of play. Their offense is too predictable and lacks unexpected changes, which makes Ajax not panic when defending.
However, Chelsea's individual soldiers are still strong, and when they inevitably appear one-on-one, they can launch a threatening offensive.
In the 36th minute of the game, Duff made a cross from the left, Haselbaink headed the ball, and Crespo shook the angle in front of Escud and pushed the ball out of the goal.
Three minutes later, Crespo took the ball from the outside and gave Lampard a ball, who shot directly and almost penetrated the goal guarded by Lobonte.
Seeing that the first half was about to end, Ajax had no intention of slowing down.
In the 43rd minute of the game, Galasek scored the ball in the backcourt. Qin Xiong directly passed the ball across the midfield with his back to Lampard, and Griguera attacked on the sideline.
Qin Xiong ran forward along the middle road, and Grigra's pressing forced Lampard to assist in defending the side road, which gave Qin Xiong a relatively loose space to get the ball in the middle road.
Grigra handed the ball to Qin Xiong. Before Maklale could press it, Qin Xiong suddenly had a kick and teleported it out, crossing the top diagonally and directly passed the left rib of the penalty area.
Sneider bypassed Melchiot and cut into the penalty area. He kept stopping in front of the baseline and swept the ball directly into the middle of the goal.
The ball was so powerful that it was like a shot.
Ibrahimovic, who followed up in the middle, could not touch the football even after being harassed by Terry, and even goalkeeper Kudicini failed to touch the football.
At the back point, Bridge had been thrown away by Van der Fate. Although Galas tried his best to block the back point of the goal, Van der Fate still kicked the ball into the empty goal with his left foot at the back post!
Ajax fans were crazy excited!
The players on the field quickly ran to Van der Fate, and they hugged each other and roared to celebrate their second goal!
"Van der Fate expanded Ajax's lead! Before the end of the half, Chelsea suffered another heavy blow, and now two goals are behind! Head coach Ranieli should think of a way. Comparing Chelsea and Ajax's offensive in the frontcourt, Chelsea seemed unchanged, while Ajax seemed to be changing. No matter what defensive formation Chelsea posed, Qin Xiong can always connect with his teammates. It's too tacit to cooperate with their passing and running!"
Ranieri is like a candle in the wind, lonely and helpless.
According to his experience, there is no doubt that Chelsea lost to Ajax as a whole.
We cannot blame Lampard for not being as creative as Qin Xiong. They are not the same type of players themselves. In terms of organizational talent, Qin Xiong's threatening ball conveys data in just 45 minutes of the game. He has defeated Lampard!
Different ways of playing football, different team styles, and even different mentality.
Incomparable.
There is no need to make meaningless comparisons.
Chelsea's technical and tactical style is not as good as the Dutch giants, the founder of offensive football!
When De Jong and Galasek became a stable barrier before the defense line, and when they also had the ability to fight against the wild and passionate power, Chelsea had a distinctive force impact in England, and a quick attack on the wing, and in front of Ajax, they could not create any situation that panics them!
Abu's face finally became ugly in the VIP box.
The scene before my eyes is clear at a glance. Which of the two teams is more beautiful? It is undoubtedly Ajax.
Who is leading?
This is not a problem at all. Look at the big screen and look at the fans celebrating crazy in the stadium.
His dream master, after investing hugely in the summer, seems to be better than Ajax, who is developing step by step steadily!
At the end of the first half, Ajax led Chelsea 2-0.
Qin Xiong and his teammates slapped hard before the game. They did not look at the Chelsea players again, and still walked towards the player channel with their heads raised.
The Chelsea players were a little confused.
They didn't expect Ajax to be so strong!
Ranieri should understand the reason.
Chelsea's Champions League trip this season is so smooth.
The group stage did not face much test at all.
Sparta, Beziktas, and Lazio, who was almost dismembered in financial difficulties.
The knockout match encountered Stuttgart in Germany.
Has Chelsea really played a team at a giant or championship level?
No!
Chelsea have too little experience in Europe!
Although Ajax is young, most of the main players in Ajax's team, including head coach Koeman, played at least two stages of group stage last season and reached the quarterfinals of the Champions League!
This lack of experience does not come from stress.
It is a limitation for teams of different football styles.
Ajax represents the style of Dutch football, offensive football!
It is very different from the traditional English style.
They are more creative, pay more attention to ground transmission and cutting, and focus more on group cooperation. They have a variety of ways to promote offenses, rather than simple and rough rushing bombing!
In this case, Chelsea lacks adaptability and Marklele is experienced, but after all, he is only one person. He has the confidence to limit Qin Xiong one-on-one, but he cannot limit Ajax's entire attack group!
Maybe no one knows that this Ajax, who was almost in a state of falling apart in summer, was standing up strongly after stumbling along the way.
In the sprinting stage at the end of the season, they can concentrate on fighting in the Champions League and have reached the strongest state!
During the break, Koeman praised the team's performance and ordered the team to firmly continue the first half of the game.
No Ajax players would suspect that their tactical style is wrong, and the difference between the scene advantage and the score proves that the direction they are working on is correct.
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. Chelsea showed off his back-to-back. The British pressing system that challenged the foul scale was used again, which looked even more fierce and rough.
When Ajax quickly launched his offensive and continued his advantage in the first half, an accident happened.
Sneider was fouled by Melchiot while stopping the ball. He sprained his foot to dodge the opponent's press. Although he said it was not serious, he could not persist in the game.
"Ajax encountered a little trouble. Melchiot paid a yellow card to send Sneijder away. Koeman's expression looked a bit heavy. He knew Ajax's offensive end, forward trident and Qin Xiong, who would be missing from these four players, and the team's offensive effect would be greatly reduced. Now, he can only let Pinal warm up."
Two minutes later, Pinal came on the court to replace Sneijder.
He went to play the left winger.
He has the ability to do this position. The problem is that in an offensive system, he has never been fixed in the left winger position with his teammates in cooperation.
His personal performance should not be a big problem. The key is that his cooperation and understanding may be affected.
Qin Xiong had to slow down the pace a little, giving Pinal time to adapt to the game.
Originally, the offensive team had fewer players in the frontcourt. If one less person could be actively integrated, the effect would definitely be very unsatisfactory.
In the 61st minute, Qin Xiong began to cooperate frequently with Pinal, in order to help him enter the game.
Pinal's performance looks pretty good at first glance.
He completed two long shots outside the penalty area in succession, and one of them also tested Kudicini.
However, in the 67th minute of the game, he made a fatal mistake during a transfer with Qin Xiong on his own initiative!
After the shift, he hopes to let Qin Xiong form a running cover, and then he passes the ball to the right to find Van der Fate and quickly transfer the attack.
But Lampard ran to follow Qin Xiong, and Marklele didn't take that trick at all. He snatched up with a decisive and brave step, and his foot was accurate, which directly made Pinal lose his center of gravity in the panic protection of the ball. Marklele successfully intercepted the ball!
The French midfielder was quite popular with the general and took the ball directly to the front court. After half the game, he passed the ball directly to Glenchar on the wing.
Chapter completed!
