Chapter 1539 Young Guards

King's return!
Before the first round of the UEFA Champions League group stage was over, public opinion around the world was boiling. Once the game was over, it completely exploded!
Yang Yang came on as a substitute. In less than 10 minutes, including stoppage time, he scored twice and helped Ajax reverse the Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich [-]-[-] away!
What an amazing feat this is!
German Bild used "The Return of the King" as its title, and the cover was a photo of Yang Yang receiving congratulations from his teammates after scoring the volley, giving Yang Yang a very high recognition and evaluation of his performance in this game.

"Whether as a professional player or as a head coach, Yang Yang has shown a very high level at the Allianz Arena!"

Bild analyzed Ajax's tactics in depth, and believed that this young team, with an average age of less than 20 years old, did not choose to be timid and retreat when facing a behemoth like Bayern Munich. Instead, it bravely adopted high-position pressing and oppressive tactics. "This is a very courageous and courageous act."

"As a rookie in the head coaching field, 31-year-old Yang Yang led Ajax with an average age of less than 20 years old to face Kovac and his Bayern Munich. This game was originally regarded as a game without any suspense, but I didn't expect Yang Yang's team to surprise people and make everyone's glasses shattered."

According to Bild, as a former giant in the decline of European football, Ajax has not received much attention in recent years. The peak was the Europa League final two years ago, but it was completely defeated by Manchester United. Afterwards, Ajax fell apart and fell into a slump again until Yang Yang joined this season.

"Judging from the process of the game, Yang Yang has brought about earth-shaking changes to Ajax. The team's skills and tactics have added more advanced concepts on the basis of the original tradition. Whether it is high-position pressing and pressing, or more concise passing and receiving advances, they are all eye-catching, especially their ground cooperation when they counterattack, they played very brilliantly."

"Compared to the young and energetic Ajax, Bayern Munich is like an old man. Except for the two opportunities in the opening 10 minutes, Bayern Munich failed to create a good chance."

"Franck Ribery and Robben were replaced after only playing for more than 60 minutes. Lewandowski also did not perform well under the joint imprisonment of De Ligt and Militao."

Bild believes that Yang Yang's tactical intentions were very clear from the very beginning, that is to delay Bayern Munich first and slowly look for opportunities, "It's just that he certainly didn't expect that Bayern Munich's problem tonight would be so serious."

"According to various information, Ajax's psychological expectation before the game should be a draw, but I didn't expect that after Ashraf equalized the score in the first half, Bayern Munich's performance still did not improve, so Yang Yang scored twice after coming off the bench in the second half, and directly took away."

The German Bild believes that Bayern Munich's loss is not wronged, because apart from the possession rate, the team did not perform very well throughout the game.

"The ball possession rate is 60.00% vs. 40.00%, but in terms of the number of shots, Bayern Munich and Ajax both shot [-] shots, but Bayern Munich only had four shots on goal, but Ajax had nine shots on goal."

"Even the personal ability that Bayern Munich is most proud of has not been reflected. There are only five dribbles in the game, but Ajax has [-] dribbles, and most of them are concentrated in Bayern Munich's half."

Bild finally concluded that Bayern Munich only lost one to three, which is already very fortunate.

"If it weren't for Ajax being too young, if it wasn't for this team returning to the Champions League group stage after a long absence, it is estimated that Bayern Munich will encounter a great humiliation at the Allianz Arena tonight."

Bild believes that, to a certain extent, Bayern Munich should be grateful to Yang Yang, because it was precisely Yang Yang's brace that made Bayern Munich's loss not so embarrassing. Without Yang Yang, even if it was just a one-to-one draw with Ajax, Bayern Munich would be even more embarrassing than it is now.

The German Kicker magazine also commented on this game at the first time. They mainly focused on the overall strength and tactical analysis of the two teams. The final conclusion was that Yang Yang’s coaching was amazing, and he taught Kovac a vivid lesson at the Allianz Arena.

"Before the game, whether it was public opinion or analysis, Bayern Munich was a well-deserved overlord. Some media even believed that Bayern Munich was likely to beat Ajax and get enough goal difference. After all, this team is too young and has been away from the Champions League for a long time."

"But in the game, Yang Yang used his meticulous and orderly high-position pressing tactics to allow Ajax to contain Bayern Munich's offense, relying on a strong integrity to make up for the lack of personal ability."

"On the board, Bayern Munich is far ahead of Ajax, but in the game, Ajax suppressed Bayern Munich. This fully reflects the value and role of Yang Yang as a head coach."

Kicker magazine stated that Yang Yang's final brace was more like icing on the cake, because the previous one-to-one alone was enough to amaze the whole world, and the final brace was more like his declaration to the world football.

"Although he is far away from the front line of Europe, he is still the invincible Yang Yang!"

"As a player, he will soon be 32 years old, but he is still No.1 in world football. As a head coach, he is a rookie who has just fledgling, but from this season's games and from this battle at the Allianz Arena, he has shown a rising talented head coach. The future is worth looking forward to!"

The Spanish newspaper AS also focused on the match between Ajax and Bayern Munich for the first time.

The commentator and editor-in-chief of AS News, Alfredo, also gave in-depth reports on Yang Yang's brace, praising Yang Yang's UEFA Champions League coaching debut and his brace, and spoke highly of his status as a player and head coach, and even believed that he was a blockbuster at the Allianz Arena.

"The most surprising thing is Yang Yang's ability to train players."

"It can be said that in this battle at the Allianz Arena, Ajax's players in every position left a very deep impression on people. Central defenders Dericht and Militao jointly restricted Lewandowski. After the panic at the beginning, Tagliafico successfully frozen Robben and performed brilliantly on the offensive end."

"The most surprising thing is that Ashraf, a right-back who performed recklessly in Real Madrid last season and was criticized, became Ajax's most outstanding player tonight, and was even elected as the best player in the game after the game."

Aspen reviewed Ashraf's performance in Real Madrid, and at the same time analyzed Ashraf's performance in Ajax this season. He believes that this player has shown surprising progress in both the Eredivisie and the Champions League.

"If he can show his performance in Ajax this season in Real Madrid, I believe Real Madrid will never consider letting him go."

"Of course, Yang Yang's trust and training in him are also key factors. Ashraf switched to Ajax, the most important thing is Yang Yang, and Yang Yang's training also made him explode at the Allianz Arena."

……

Another gratifying performer is the former genius Erdegaard.

This player has performed very well in the Eredivisie this season. On the contrary, he appeared more as a substitute in the Champions League. In the match against Bayern Munich, he replaced Jovic after Yang Yang scored the first goal.

Although he only played for 10 minutes, Erdegaard appeared more often in the middle of the midfield. He took the ball and passed the ball very well.

Even Alfredo, the editor-in-chief of Aspen newspaper, was full of praise, "Edegaard is in Ajax, and he has been reborn under Yang Yang's hands!"

In this season's Eredivisie, Erdegaard's performance is also remarkable. Compared with last season's mediocre performance in Heerenveen, there is a huge gap, which also proves Yang Yang's ability to train players.

……

In addition to the two teenagers from Real Madrid who still transferred to Ajax, Aspen is also interested in many players in the Ajax team, not only Dericht, but also Brazilian central defender Militao, midfielder Frankie De Jong and Ndombele, two wingers Neres and Sancho, and center Jovic.

"This is a very characteristic young team!" Alfredo was amazed. "I don't even know where Yang Yang and Ajax found so many young players with potential, but I have to say that at the Allianz Arena, Ajax really shines."

"This feeling has not appeared in European football for many years, because in the past ten years, the rich teams have been monopolizing the Champions League. The strong get stronger and the weak get weaker, especially now, the rich and local teams are waving their checkbooks and hoarding famous stars."

"In this case, the sudden emergence of Ajax is undoubtedly like injecting fresh blood into the silent European football. Coupled with their young and energetic fighting spirit, beautiful and simple offensive football, these people can't help but feel good about this young team and have high hopes."

Alfredo said at the end of the column, "Before the match at the Allianz Arena, I wasn't optimistic about Ajax, and I didn't even watch their game, but after tonight, I completely became a fan of Yang Yang's Ajax!"

"The [-]-[-] away game against Bayern Munich surprised everyone and changed the situation in Group B of the Champions League. At the same time, it also made us look forward to it. In the next game, can Yang Yang and his young guards continue to surprise us?"

"I have no doubt that Yang Yang will lead Ajax to a new round of revival!"
