Four more.

------

This season's UEFA Champions League group stage plus the knockout stage, Monaco scored 10 goals in 22 games, and its offensive firepower is by no means in vain.

From the extreme oppressive attack after the opening, it repeatedly hit Ajax's defense.

Morientes is the player that Ajax must focus on, but he is definitely not only the only scoring point for Monaco. 22 goals, Morientes arranged 40%, and who is responsible for the other 60%?

More flowers!

And Morientes has an obvious role in covering the wingers on the front line. It not only restrains Ajax's double central defenders from acting rashly, but also performs threatening moves and ball control from time to time.

The most troublesome thing for Ajax is that De Jong and Galasek must help defend the ribs of the penalty area to prevent Roten and Giuly from cutting inside. If they cut inside, they want to rely on Grigera and Maxwell to start It is really difficult for some strong people to follow up and defend.

There will be a big problem with the defense in the middle, and even Qin Xiong can't stand it.

Monaco is in full swing!

The three midfielders do not seem to have a very clear division of labor.

Cisse, Bernardi, and Zekes, the three of them can attack and defend, and they come forward in turn. You can't guess who will suddenly advance when attacking, and who will attack in series.

That's what Monaco's aggressive and wild midfielders can do when they switch roles.

It is similar to Ajax's offensive end. Ajax switches roles and positions back and forth between the midfielder and the trident players except the center.

Monaco's striker line remained basically the same, but the midfielders took turns to move forward, and the offensive and defensive roles changed, making one's scalp numb, unable to firmly and accurately follow the correct target.

Qin Xiong knows very well that to limit Monaco's style of play, defense must be the main focus. As long as more troops are used to guard the dangerous area, no matter how the opponent's midfielder changes, Ajax will be able to move forward in the dangerous area. Be able to deal with it calmly.

But Koeman's tactical requirements are not like this, he asked Ajax to fight against the opponent!

Want to hit the opponent by surprise in the away game.

In the 16th minute of the game, Qi Kesi dribbled the ball forward in the middle, and Qin Xiong blocked him, but Cisse and Bernardi both moved forward on both sides. Qin Xiong did not dare to make a prediction easily. Nardi took a step forward, making Qin Xiong think that it would be Bernardi who will advance forward in the end, but Cisse, who started the latter step, advanced rapidly from the other side, Qin Xiong made a wrong judgment!

Cisse passed the ball straight to the ribs of the penalty area before Galasek defended, and the fast-moving Giuly went around the outside line and received the pass in front of the bottom line.

Giuly took a step towards the goal along the bottom line and then decisively passed the ball diagonally to Morientes who made a forward move in the penalty area and then suddenly retreated.

The Spanish top center forward's awareness in the penalty area is so good that it is no exaggeration to say that he is the most powerful penalty area killer that Ajax has ever encountered. Of course, Henry must also be world-class, but Henry has a wide range of activities. The speed is fast, and Morientes is the most threatening center in an instant when he stands in the penalty area in a pure sense!

His tendency to run forward made Escud have to follow closely, and his retreat made Escud also stop. When Escud stepped forward, Qin Xiong was far away from Morientes Less than 5 meters, I had an ominous premonition in my heart.

Morientes has a great sense of rhythm!

His rhythm paused, and after receiving a pass from Giuly, he faced Escuder's attack. Morientes had already taken advantage of the start.

really!

Morientes confronted Escuder head-on, and when he started from a distance, he deliberately passed the ball to wipe Escuder. When Escude realized it was too late.

Morientes pushed directly to the lower left corner of the goal from the right side of the penalty spot. Lobante had nothing to do, and the save was useless.

"Morientes opened the scoring for Monaco! Why? Why would Real Madrid give up such a world-class center forward? Perhaps it is just as many Real Madrid fans accused the club's top management of making mistakes and said: Retribution! Everything is retribution! They don't It's time to give up Morientes and build a flashy galaxy battleship! Monaco is so lucky, their most successful transfer operation this season was just a loan, and at the lowest price, they bought a goal machine! Moriente Si is now the top scorer in the UEFA Champions League! Didier Deschamps' team burst out with shocking passion at home! They kept attacking Ajax's defense, making the defenders panic and running back and forth to make up for the defense They made a mistake when there was a loophole! The time to test Ajax has come, how can they reverse the decline? So far, we have not seen an effective and sharp attack from Ajax. Qin Xiong’s attack in the middle is not effective Ideally, he is blocked and entangled by too many people, and the passing line in front of him is not wide enough. Evra and Ibarra will fight hand-to-hand with Sneijder and van der Vaart. Qin Xiong seems to be isolated. Deschamps' midfielder The restriction tactics were successful, the three attacking and defensive midfielders took turns bombing, they were like all-round fighters, and they joined forces to freeze the creative source of Ajax's attack!"

When Morientes celebrated wildly with his teammates on the court, Qin Xiong stood there with his hips akimbo.

The situation after the opening was something he hadn't expected.

And the complexity of the game is that offense and defense always have a linkage effect.

When Ajax's offense can't play a threat, it can't suppress Monaco's offense in a disguised form, forcing the opponent to increase their investment in defense. In this way, their own defense will encounter more challenges.

The attack in the middle is not ideal, even if he breaks through in the middle, it doesn't make much sense. The cooperation of the opponent's three midfielders can't be said to be perfect, but the most basic defense cooperation is in place.

They will not rush up one by one to be broken by Qin Xiong, they will keep a good distance and entangle Qin Xiong. If they cannot break the ball under his feet, then it will become countless times to chase and intercept him.

Qin Xiong couldn't change Koeman's tactics, and the team still had to attack.

Then, attacking in the middle can't open the situation, Qin Xiong gritted his teeth.

Stop attacking in the middle!

After the re-kick-off, Monaco's morale was high, and it was nothing to lead by one goal. Their passionate team may not understand what it means to stop when they are good, and they don't know how to turn from mad attack to control when they are leading. Believe in the complete and utter destruction of the opponent!

Didier Deschamps grinned grimly on the sidelines. He firmly believed that his team would crush the young Ajax, crushing their confidence and tearing their dreams to pieces in one blow after another!

Qin Xiong is still in a very late position, and he must assist the defense to contain Monaco's passionate offensive as much as possible.

In the 21st minute of the game, Maxwell entangled Jiuli with difficulty. Galasek helped defend and cut off the football controlled by Jiuli. Qin Xiong immediately started running to the side!

His running position stunned the three midfielders of Monaco, who were very surprised.

They originally planned to arrange a tight defensive line directly in the middle of the frontcourt to kill Ajax's fast break.

But after Qin Xiong moved to the side, even though the side itself is a defensive line, he suddenly speeded up after receiving a pass from Garasek, and he could get rid of the possibility of a defensive player first*** ***.

Zekes!

Zekes is not fast!

If he was in the middle lane, Qin Xiong couldn't get around him, but Qin Xiong went to the side lane and picked up his speed to dribble forward. It was impossible for Qi Kesi to run to the side lane. If he ran, he would only be thrown farther and farther by Qin Xiong.

Cisse and Bernardi are faster, but they can't rush to the side all at once. Although Garasek is a defensive midfielder, he will also cross the half to provide support when attacking forward.

So at least one fast player must be left in the middle to retreat!

Cisse assisted in defending the wing, while Bernardi and Zekes retreated along the center.

When Cisse came to the side to defend Qin Xiong, Qin Xiong had already waded the ball past the midfield on the side.

The frontcourt situation is clear.

The distance between Qin Xiong and Sneijder is even closer.

Two Ajax players faced a defense of two Monaco players.

Cisse and Ibarra team up to block Qin Xiong and Sneijder.

On the front side, Qin Xiong passed the ball straight to Sneijder, and Cisse and Ibarra rushed to Sneijder immediately, who passed the ball back to Qin Xiong. After passing the ball, Sneijder immediately Go forward along the sidewalk.

His running position made Ibarra and Cisse follow him subconsciously, worried that Qin Xiong would pass the ball behind him.

But Qin Xiong didn't play the ball at all while holding the ball on the spot.

He flicked the ball horizontally, and then directly sent a diagonal pass to ground the ball!

He passed the ball to the right in front of the penalty area and would not penetrate Monaco's back line.

Van der Vaart, who cut across the middle from the other side, received Qin Xiong's pass in front of the penalty area. The Dutch golden boy suddenly made Ajax's attack full of threats!
