Chapter 144 The Severe Championship Situation!
Ajax has won eight consecutive victories, like a wolf biting Alkmaar in front, making the city of Amsterdam full of pride.

The Amsterdam Handelsblatt said very optimistically: Now our only goal is to defeat the remaining four opponents, and to win the Eredivisie championship with a [-]-game winning streak!

The Sports Weekly said: Although the last four opponents are not easy to deal with, we have no retreat now. We can only create miracles by defeating them!
The Telegraph analyzed objectively: "This season's Eredivisie has come to an end. There are three teams capable of competing for the final championship. Alkmaar, ranked first, leads by six points. They have the greatest chance. Ajax, ranked second, has the least chance of winning the championship despite their recent performance.

Twente, who is currently ranked third in goal difference, has a relatively greater chance than Ajax.

Alkmaar leads by six points, and among their remaining four opponents, apart from Ajax and Twente, Vidis and Heerenveen should not be able to pose a threat to them.

As long as they can beat either Ajax or Twente, the championship is basically theirs.

If these two games are lost, they still have a chance to win the championship, because Ajax and Twente have troubled the last four rounds.

The reason why Twente is worse than Alkmaar in winning the championship is not only that they are six points behind the opponent, but more importantly, their opponents in the last four rounds-Feyenoord, Heerenveen, Alkmaar, and Ajax!
Looking at these opponents, apart from Heerenveen, the strength of the other three teams...

If Twente can beat the two direct competitors, then their chances of winning the championship will become great!

Ajax's opponents in the last four rounds are Eindhoven, Alkmaar, Sparta Rotterdam and Twente. Except for Sparta Rotterdam, which is slightly weaker, the other three teams are very strong.

It is undoubtedly the most difficult for Ajax to win the championship among the three teams. Unless a miracle happens, it is impossible for them to win the final championship.

If Ajax wants to win the championship, they must win the remaining four games, which is so difficult that people can't imagine.

The three championship teams met in the final stage of the season. This is a rare situation in recent seasons. The most competitive game of this season will soon be presented to the fans!
Who will win the championship in the end?
Some things depend on God's will, and everything depends on the performance of each team under tremendous pressure. Only God can know the final result! "

The Telegraph's analysis is very reasonable, and the odds of the three major European gambling companies also confirmed their analysis. Alkmaar's winning odds are 1:1.95, Ajax's odds are 1:3.89, and Twente's odds are 1:2.84.

The Eindhoven Daily said loudly: "We will never give Ajax any chance at home. We will let their dream of winning the championship be shattered after the next game!"

There is nothing more exciting than smashing the dream of winning the championship with your own hands. Eindhoven vowed to beat Ajax at home and let them break the Eindhoven-Phillips Stadium!
After some analysis by the media, the city of Amsterdam fell into silence, and the pride and joy brought to them by the eight-game winning streak disappeared.

They suddenly discovered that the result of winning eight consecutive victories is only to retain the qualifications for the championship, and the situation for the championship is still grim.

The severe situation of winning the championship brings people back to reality. If the results at the beginning of the winter break were not so bad, maybe we don't need to win the last four games at all to win the championship.

However, there is no if in the world...

Amsterdam Handelsblatt encouraged Ajax players: "We must always believe in the birth of miracles, and always have the ambition to win the championship. There is never the word 'give up' in the Ajax dictionary!"

They also began to encourage the fans: "Ajax has reached the most critical moment. If you want to relive the joy of the Eredivisie championship four years later, then you should go out of your house and go to the stadium to cheer for your team. Give them endless strength and confidence to win!"

"The miracle is in your hands!"

Sports Weekly said: "The next four games, we might as well call them the 'Four Great Battles', we want to win all the victories in the 'Four Great Battles', so that we have a chance to regain the Eredivisie title after four years!"

The Alkmaar Evening News shouted: "The championship must belong to Alkmaar, because we have Van Gaal!"

Twente Life encourages his team: "Although the situation of winning the championship is quite severe now, this is the closest we have been to the championship trophy in so many years.

So what we have to do next is to continue to win, stand out among the top three, surpass Ajax and Alkmaar, and finally win the championship!
Twente, the difficulties in front of you are undoubtedly huge, but we must overcome our opponents with the ambition of winning the first Eredivisie championship in the history of the club! "

The media in the cities where the teams belonged cheered for their teams one after another, and the atmosphere of the grand final battle shrouded the three cities.

Ajax started training early in preparation for their away game against PSV.

Sportsweek called the last four games the "Big Four" and this statement was endorsed by Ajax.

The day before going to Eindhoven, after training in the afternoon, Basten deliberately held a team meeting in the locker room of the training base, and the club's general manager Rick van den Berg also came.

The atmosphere in the locker room was dignified and depressing, and the severe situation of winning the championship was like a mountain weighing on everyone.

Suarez's face was full of frustration. When the team needed him most, he was unable to play due to injuries.

Chen Fan was infected by this dignified and depressing atmosphere, as if he was carrying a mountain on his back.

Basten broke the silence and said in a low voice: "Due to our poor performance in the first four games after the winter break, our ranking dropped to sixth place. At that time, everyone thought that we had nothing to do with this season's championship."

Van der Veer bowed his head in shame, the poor record of three losses and one draw was directly related to his performance in those few games.

Basten's voice gradually increased: "But we didn't give up. Feyenoord wanted to take this opportunity to win at our home court. We gave them a head-on blow!"

"Five to zero! We haven't beaten them heartily in many years, but we did, and we rose strongly!"

"Next, we will win all the way and continue to improve our rankings. Now we have won eight consecutive victories, climbed to second place, and re-entered the championship group!"

If it weren't for Alkmaar's stable performance, perhaps Ajax would have caught up and even surpassed the other side, ranking first in the standings.

The dignified look on the players' faces slowly changed, and Basten paused for a moment and continued: "Now it's the most critical moment of the season, and we have no reason to feel timid or hesitant at this moment!"

"What we have to do now is not to worry about whether we can win the championship in the end, but to deal with every opponent seriously and use all our energy to defeat them!"

Ajax must win their last four games to win the title, and three of those four games will be fought.Every game is like a mountain pressing on the players, which is why they feel a lot of pressure.

Basten's purpose is to let the players get rid of this psychological pressure and let them play lightly.

"Now we have to put all our energy on the upcoming game against PSV, don't think about the remaining three games, if we can't beat PSV in the away game..."

Basten shook his head and said, "Then, we don't need to talk about the championship at all."

"Only by defeating Eindhoven can we be qualified to talk about the championship!"
