In the first 15 minutes of the game, Arsenal and Ajax had a combined shot.

It was Pires' long-range shot from outside the penalty area.

Ajax have yet to take a shot on goal.

Wenger couldn't read it on the sidelines.

Ajax has a tight defensive system in the backcourt, which is understandable. With more defensive numbers to limit Henry, Henry should also receive such treatment.

But what are Ajax's attacking players doing?

Ibrahimovic has never stepped into the penalty area, he has been acting as a fulcrum in front of the penalty area, his teammates pass the ball to him, and he will pass the ball back to his teammates.

Sneijder and van der Vaart are also more like a front midfielder, they will not pass from the edge to the bottom, and they will not cut inside the penalty area.

Ibrahimovic, Sneijder, Qin Xiong, van der Vaart.

If the four of them formed a big diamond on the offensive end of Ajax in the second half of the last game, then from the beginning of the game today, the four of them have shrunk the big diamond and are closer to each other, although they are more connected. For stability, but for the threat of impact in the penalty area, it is almost zero!

Regarding this point, Coman is really helpless, not putting on any superb technical and tactical tricks, nor is he playing tricks.

But the limit of these Ajax players is here.

Without the strength to crush Arsenal, how can there be tactics that can definitely defeat the opponent?

Ajax first restricts the opponent's goals, and then creates opportunities on this basis. If the frontcourt players are too scattered, it is easy to be cut by Arsenal's offensive formation. The teammates cannot connect with each other, and the possibility of creating opportunities will be reduced. Greatly reduced.

They can only create more opportunities by cooperating more in a small area.

When the game passed 20 minutes later, Wenger was shocked on the sidelines.

In the 21st minute, Qin Xiong brought the ball in front of Vieira and Silva in the middle. He crossed the ball to Sneijder on the left, and then ran to the right. Sneijder passed the ball back. Garasek in the middle of the rear, the Czech veteran passed the ball directly to Qin Xiong without stopping the ball.

At this time, although it is parallel to Vieira, Qin Xiong did not try to break through the middle, but directly kicked a long shot!

35 yards away from the goal, Qin Xiong blasted a high-quality long-range shot towards the upper right corner of the goal.

Lehmann made a world-class save, blocking the ball out of the baseline with a single palm!

"Ajax almost scored! A long-range shot from Qin Xiong! The shot was beautiful, and the goalkeeper Lehmann made a wonderful save!"

Two minutes later, Qin Xiong repeated his old tricks in the middle and continued to seduce Vieira and Silva. He did not try to break through, but used the threat of ball possession to restrain and attract the opponent, and then sent Van der Vaart a comfortable kick. Diagonal pass.

Van der Vaart was on the right side outside the penalty area, also took a long shot, rubbed his left foot, and made an inswing arc ball. The Dutch golden boy wanted to shoot the ball into the far post. Unfortunately, the distance was a bit far. To ensure strength With the speed of the ball, the angle was not grasped well, and it missed the goal by about one meter.

But Ajax obviously played a threatening shot.

After another 3 minutes, when Ashley Cole wanted to keep up with van der Vaart to limit the opponent's long-range shots, Qin Xiong dribbled a step in front of Vieira and decisively sent a through ball. - Cole rolled over, and Ibrahimovic, who slanted into the space between the full-back and the central defender from behind Toure, stopped the ball in the penalty area!

Toure and Campbell flanked Ibrahimovic from the front and the side, and Ibrahimovic decisively turned around and volleyed.

It's Lyman again!

He blocked Ibrahimovic's shot at the near post.

Ibrahimovic gritted his teeth and patted his palm. When he turned his head, he saw Qin Xiong, who was full of coldness, making a gesture of calmness and calmness towards him. Ibrahimovic nodded to Qin Xiong, still full of fighting spirit.

The Arsenal fans in the stands felt their scalps tingling.

what happened?

Ajax's sudden offensive is like a wave, and every attack is extremely threatening. What's going on?

Wenger's mind was running fast, as if a three-dimensional situation of the two sides on the court appeared in his mind.

Ajax used a four-man offensive group as the attack group. When challenging Arsenal to stabilize the six-man defensive line, they used the most appropriate strategy!

Ibrahimovic withdrew from the penalty area, just in front of Qin Xiong, Sneijder and van der Vaart retracted.

Coupled with Garasek behind Qin Xiong, Qin Xiong, who is surrounded by his teammates, can easily connect with his teammates in all directions in the midfield!

This ensures that their offense runs smoothly.

At the same time, as a commander, Qin Xiong not only possesses precise passing ability, but also has excellent ball handling ability.

When facing Vieira or Silva, if Arsenal only has one midfielder to freeze Qin Xiong, then even if Qin Xiong is not good enough, he can make long shots by himself by cooperating with his teammates' passing and running.

If two defensive midfielders come to block Qin Xiong, it is true that Qin Xiong will not be able to hold the ball for a long time, nor can he go forward alone, but he can create long-range shooting opportunities for Sneijder and van der Vaart, allowing them to Crossing the middle and diagonally threatening the goal with a long-range shot.

Arsenal's defensive line, if they don't want to take the risk of being hit behind the ball, their defenders dare not step forward to press close.

The two full-backs, no matter who stepped forward to block Sneijder or van der Vaart, they lost the ability to control the left and right sides of the penalty area.

In that case, Qin Xiong will be able to cooperate with Ibrahimovic with a diagonal thrust in the center and a through pass behind him!

Ajax has indeed reduced the attack group from 5 to 4, which obviously reduces the richness of their movement, passing and cutting cooperation. However, in such a situation, they have exerted their teamwork ability and worked together. To create an advantage may not absolutely guarantee a goal, but at their own extreme height, they are doing their best to destroy Arsenal's defense and strive to win!

Wenger looked absently at Qin Xiong, the Chinese player who kept running horizontally and vertically on the field, tearing apart Arsenal's midfield defense.

It is his overall view and personal technical ability that make Ajax shoot when he has a chance in the frontcourt.

It can be said that every time he plays the ball is reasonable, even if it seems useless, it may be paving the way for the next attack, which has deep meaning.

Wenger glanced at the game time.

Three and ten minutes have passed.

According to the current score, for Arsenal, it is getting closer and closer to victory, and Wenger believes that as time goes by, Arsenal's situation will get better and better, because Ajax will definitely panic and be anxious !

In Highbury, Arsenal did not play much decent offense.

Vieira is able to ensure that Arsenal's front and rear courts are excessively connected when they switch from defense to offense, and can give Arsenal's frontcourt players the opportunity to deliver the ball at their feet.

However, I have to admit that Bergkamp is old, and his ability to accelerate forward has almost no breakthrough, but passing the ball.

Therefore, Ajax's backcourt defenders are very calm and put on a tight formation. When the ball is at the feet of the retreating Bergkamp, ​​they are not in a hurry to grab it. If they go up, it will expose the space behind them and give Bergkamp Ordinary uses stay in place to get rid of opportunities for technological breakthroughs.

If Bergkamp does not play the ball in time, his forward speed will be relatively slow. Qin Xiong will not be able to catch up with Henry when he returns to defense, but he will definitely have no problem chasing Bergkamp.

In order to continue the attack, Bergkamp must play the ball, and Ajax, which has a tight combination of double defensive midfielders and four defenders, will not give Pires and Ljungberg the opportunity to break through and cut in from the wing. Henry is like In the last game, Ibrahimovic was surrounded by all directions. Although Henry had a huge range of activities, once he left the dangerous area of ​​​​the penalty area and went outside, Ajax also compressed the space in the dangerous area and did not give the opponent a chance to pass.

If Ashley Cole doesn't come up with an assist, it will still be difficult for Arsenal's counterattack to shake Ajax's tight defense.

This led to Arsenal at home, but as the game time passed, the shooting data became less and less than Ajax.

Even if Ajax is refreshing the shooting data in a way that does not seem to have a high success rate through long-range shots from the outside.

In the 37th minute of the game, Sneijder shot from the left side of the penalty area and hit the upper left corner of Arsenal's goal, which was resolved by Lehmann's world-class save again.

The Gunners fans in Highbury were frightened, and the Arsenal players were also extremely nervous.

Damn, are Ajax here to hit the jackpot?

Dare you bet?

Take a bet, can Ajax be able to kick the world wave to open Arsenal's goal in the game?

Arsenal, can you afford to bet?
