When the referee Tobias Stile from Germany blew the whistle at the beginning of the game, Prudholm's brow never relaxed for a moment, and he always stood nervously and uneasy in the coach's command area.

On the court, the young Ajax was like a tiger going down the mountain, and from the moment the whistle sounded, he rushed towards Standard Liege.

Ajax, who is like a wolf and a tiger, looks fearless. Liege, a standard home game, is more about starting a stable start, taking the initiative to avoid his edge, trying to get Ajax to attack for a while, and then slowly looking for opportunities to counterattack.

Ajax adopted a high-level pressing and pressing, and basically pressed the three front, middle and back lines, which caused great trouble to Standard Liege. As soon as they grabbed the ball, they were immediately pressed by Ajax from the frontcourt.

This makes Standard Liege seem quite passive in the scene.

But the first shot of the whole game came from the home team. Captain Ma Boku made the first shot of the whole game on the left rib, but failed to threaten Ajax's goal, but instead turned into an anti-aircraft gun.

Ajax himself also encountered many problems. He seemed to have taken the lead and had an advantage in the scene, but he never turned into a threat in the frontcourt, and he didn't even shoot a shot for a long time. This was difficult to deal with.

On the contrary, Liege counterattacked again and again, although it failed to create a threat, at least they shot more times.

Just when Yang Yang smiled bitterly at Xavi Alonso on the sidelines, the game finally opened up.

In the 16th minute, Ajax quickly attacked the frontcourt.

Ndongbele suddenly dribbled forward and quickly passed the ball to Jovic, who was pulling it to the outside of the penalty area to meet.

Jovic used his body to hold the opponent's central defender, stopped the ball to Van der Beck, and turned around and rushed forward quickly.

Van der Beck understood it and sent a straight pass. Jovic quickly inserted it and shot before the goalkeeper who attacked, making a first record for Ajax.

...

"Wow!!!"

Yang Yang applauded excitedly on the sidelines. Seeing Jovic rushing towards the corner kick area excitedly to celebrate, he even gave a thumbs up at the center, and praised his goal.

This is a very smart running position.

"What a smart player." Xavi Alonso also praised with a smile.

Yang Yang nodded constantly. Jovic has been studying Yang Yang's game video recently, especially focusing on running and support. It seems that he is making rapid progress now, which has enabled him to get this goal.

In contrast, Van der Beck's straight pass was just a normal performance. If he didn't pass, it would be a missed opportunity.

"Van der Beck sometimes still leans too far. He doesn't seem to be integrated into the midfield, but instead turns himself into a No. 9 and a half, which leads to a relatively large gap in the midfield, especially in front of De Jong and Ndongbele, where Van der Beck appears after the front and back."

"Endonbele just now took the ball and inserted it in. This time it was very important. If there was no such thing, this attack would be gone."

This is a problem.

Although Yang Yang's positioning of Van der Beck is a back-end, he is a midfielder, who is in charge of passing the ball in the midfield and backcourt, connecting the frontcourt and midfield, which is very important. However, whether it is a warm-up match or this game tonight, Van der Beck seems to have a deviation in his understanding of his role positioning or understanding.

But that doesn't matter. Take your time, after all, the player has just started.

...

The game started again, and Ajax, who had just scored a goal, continued to press high on Standard Liege.

This seems a bit unforgiving, but it makes Yang Yang and Xavi Alonso on the sidelines watch it very well.

Especially after just four minutes of the goal, Ndongbele suddenly robbed and directly carried over the No. 18 midfielder Marin of Standard Liege, and did not make a foul. After grabbing the ball, he turned around and shot a long shot.

A little anxious!

But this beautiful defense made Yang Yang and Harvey Alonso applaud.

"So fierce!" exclaimed Harvey Alonso.

Ndongbele is indeed physically strong, and has excellent feet. He has great ability to drive the ball. More importantly, his running range is large, which makes him look like a light tank, making unscrupulous and unscrupulous in the opponent's midfield.

Proudholm was probably about to cry at this time!

"This guy is a treasure, very much like Pogba." Yang Yang also admired Ndongbele very much.

Pogba's characteristics are his strong physical fitness and delicate foot skills. The threat of the French midfielder at the left rib and at the front of the penalty area is very great. Ndongbele is relatively lacking, because once he reaches the frontcourt, he is prone to worry and not calm enough.

This has something to do with the player's own personality.

If Ndongbele could handle the ball calmly on the left rib and front of the penalty area like Pogba did, he would have been poached long ago.

"He is just a little distracted and his attention is not very focused. In fact, he is also very good at silence. He is not as good as Ndongbele in terms of physical and strength confrontation." Xavi Alonso nodded constantly.

Veteran Shenei is an offensive player, with a sporty foot and a strong passing ability, but his height and strength are not as good as Ndongbele in confrontation.

Yang Yang chose Ndongbele, and what he valued more was that he could inject strength and confrontation into the team's midfield.

Ajax does not have the delicate small-scale pass and ball control skills like Barcelona, ​​so the midfielder needs such a person, especially when he is in the European arena.

If you want to play ball control, Odegao and Sheen will be very good candidates.

"The player De Jong is also very interesting and looks weak, but in fact, he has made a great contribution to the defensive end and has a high right to regain the ball per game. This is very terrifying, and more importantly, he can also pass the ball." Yang Yang praised with a smile.

This is also why he put De Jong in the back midfielder, and even let Ndongbele penetrate forward and let De Jong drag the back.

The reason is very simple. De Jong's characteristics and future development trends should be Pirlo, who has outstanding defensive skills, or Xavi Alonso who is not afraid of pressing and has strong dribbling skills.

This is very exciting.

"To be honest, I was really worried before coming to Ajax, but after reading the player information and coming to Ajax, I really felt that this team was a treasure house." Harvey Alonso said in admiration, and his eyes looked at Yang Yang were full of admiration.

Because he still clearly remembers that Yang Yang told him before that he wanted to lead the team into the Champions League knockout stage. At that time, he felt it was not realistic, but now, more than a month later, he really felt that there was hope.

Maybe it may not be possible this year, but there will be absolutely no problem next year because this team is making very fast.

De Jong, van der Beck and Ndongbele in the midfield have their own characteristics and advantages, and Militon and D Rigt on the defense line are the same. Both players are good at passing. D Rigt is very comprehensive, stealing, intercepting, and clearing. He can do everything. His standard central defender body has strong strength confrontation. More importantly, after he served as captain, Yang Yang began to ask him to command the defense of the defense line, which is very good at being a general.

Militon is also very outstanding. He is not as good as De Rigt in terms of strength confrontation. He will suffer a disadvantage when encountering a strong center, but he is very fast, especially explosive power, and he is very flexible and has very strong one-on-one ability. The bigger problem is almost the common problem of Brazilian defensive players and poor tactical discipline.

The two players teamed up to form Ajax's central defender. From the warm-up match to now, problems have been exposed. However, whether it is Yang Yang, Xavi Alonso, or the Ajax technical team, they are all full of expectations for them.

...

Just as Yang Yang and Xavi Alonso were discussing the situation on the court and studying the various problems exposed by the team, the Ajax players on the court once again created opportunities.

The frontcourt offense was not good, and when the return pass was passed, De Jong quickly moved to the right.

Ashraf quickly advanced along the right side, and after getting the ball, he passed it to Sancho in front.

The English young player got the ball from the right side of the penalty area, quickly threw away the defensive player, and passed the ball in front of the goal.

Jovic just retreated to meet him, but there was no one in the middle, but Neres at the back point quickly inserted and easily pushed and shot in front of the goal, winning another goal for Ajax, 2-0!

The Brazilian young player was so excited that he rushed out of the stadium and ran all the way.

Yang Yang and Harvey Alonso also laughed. This time the offensive cooperation was indeed a good match.

"This group of boys is worth looking forward to." Yang Yang said.

Xavi Alonso agrees with Yang Yang's view very much. The more he stays with these players, the more he can perceive the potential they are in. The key is to be able to stimulate their potential.

Debor, Pete Boss, Keisel or Reziger were unable to do this before.

But Yang Yang can.

Two wingers, Nerez and Sancho, averaged up to four or five times in the warm-up game, plus high center Jovic, Van der Beck, and three full-backs Joe Ge, Taliafico and Ashraf. If this attack is polished, Ajax's offensive ability will explode.

"Two to zero!" Yang Yang laughed, "I said, it's actually... not difficult."

Harvey Alonso couldn't help laughing.

Before the game, he was really worried, but when he really got to the game, he found that Yang Yang was still calm as usual.

The game also seemed to develop according to Yang Yang's wishes. Liege could not withstand Ajax's frontcourt impact, could not withstand the pressure from the midfield, and could not stop the two wings from flying together. This result was very obvious.

The Belgian team can't stop Ajax.

Of course, Ajax is still too young.

"Next, we still need to be careful, our internal problems may be more serious than external problems." Harvey Alonso was still not careful when he was happy.

Careful and meticulous is also a label by Harvey Alonso.

Yang Yang deeply agrees, but he thinks this is not a problem either. Young players are making progress in solving problems.
