1584 Picking peaches again!

When seeing Yang Yang warm up on the sidelines and preparing to play, Allegri also gave instructions.

Douglas Costa, who was sitting on the bench, also went out to warm up.

This is a substitution against Mai Mang, because after Yang Yang came on the court, Juventus' biggest threat was defense, but Allegri obviously made a choice. He believes that improving offense is more important than defense.

Facing such an Ajax, you will definitely not be able to defend it!

Instead of doing this, it is better to adjust the team's offense and strive for more goals.

After all, this is the away game in the first leg, and there is a home game in the second leg, and Juventus will still take a step back.

As for why it is Douglas Costa, not Dybala, the reason is very simple, Juventus lacks a winger.

The kind of winger who can drive the ball to the frontcourt alone, pull out the defense for Cristiano Ronaldo and deliver shells.

At this point, Douglas Costa is more suitable than Dybala, and Brazilians have very strong personal abilities.

Watching Douglas Costa run out to warm up, when Allegri's eyes returned to the court, he suddenly became furious and sweated in a cold sweat by the situation on the court.

Ajax once again broke into Juventus' penalty area, with a long pass from Frankie DeJong in the backcourt, trying to find Van der Beck directly. Bonucci and Rugani's attention was pulled away by Jovic. If Van der Beck got the point, it would be dangerous.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Matuidi headed the ball before Van der Beck.

Although this French veteran is old, he has rich experience and is reliable at critical moments.

But Allegri's tone had not relaxed yet, and Matuidi's header did not reach the far end, but just left the penalty area.

On the outside, Ajax's midfielder Ndongbele followed and shot angrily without waiting for the ball to land.

This sudden long shot made the powerful and powerful shot, which was very amazing, which made Allegri scream.

But unfortunately, Ndongbele's long shot was slightly higher.

"Damn it!" Allegri finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the court, the Ajax players gave each other thumbs up, Jovic was patting his head, complaining that Ndongbele did not pass the ball, Ndongbele smiled helplessly, spread his hands and shrugged...

"It's so good to be young!" Allegri exclaimed in his heart for no reason.

All of these young players in Ajax are treasures.

Ndongbele's sudden shot just now made Allegri's eyes lit up. Isn't this the type of player that Juventus lacks the most in the midfield?

Not all of Matuidi, Khdira, Vidal, and even Pogba?

And the De Rigt who restricted Mandzukichi throughout the game. This kid is really only nineteen years old?

Frankie DeJong's long pass just now was just right, very precise, and looking at the Champions League this season, he has the maturity, stability and confidence that a 21-year-old player is rare. He handles the ball without frizz, has excellent skills under his feet, and even has a good defense. He can be said to be a rare technical midfielder.

Ndongbele, De Rigt, Frankie De Jong...

If all three players can come to Juventus, the team's overall strength will definitely be able to reach a higher level. In addition, Cristiano Ronaldo is ahead, and Cuadrado and Douglas Costa are on the wing. This configuration is definitely a lineup that can compete for the Champions League championship.

However, after this thought flashed across Allegri, he soon smiled helplessly.

The reason is very simple, expensive!

Barcelona tried to sign Frankie De Jong before, and the offer was 50 million euros, but Ajax refused without hesitation. Now, after the baptism of the quarterfinals and excellent performance in this game, Frankie De Jong's net worth is at least 70 million euros, and it is very popular. I can't guarantee that I will add another 10 or 20 million euros.

De Rigt and Militon are also worth a lot of money, and Ndombele's value is also worth more than 50 million euros. Even at this current estimate, any team that wants to sign Ndombele this summer without 60 to 70 million euros will not be able to deal with Ajax.

In other words, if you want to win these three players, 200 million euros is not enough, and Juventus can't afford the money at all!

In addition to these three players, there are Jovic, Nerez, Sancho in the frontcourt, Taliafico and Ashraf, and Van der Beck... The whole team of Ajax is almost a mouth-watering hot commodity.

Just as Allegri was smiling bitterly, Yang Yang, who had returned from warming up, explained a few words to Xavi Alonso and walked to the sidelines.

…………

…………

In the 60th minute, Yang Yang replaced Van der Beck.

Ajax's midfielder walked off the court amid applause from the fans of the court.

He performed very well tonight. Although he was not the most eye-catching one in the team, he definitely showed his own strength. Unfortunately, he still lacked the ability to seize opportunities, which led to Ajax being in a position but not scoring points.

This is also a relatively serious problem for Ajax at present, especially in the Champions League.

It can create opportunities, but the efficiency of converting goals is still relatively low.

Of course, young players should not be demanding too much. If everything is done well, it would be surprising.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Yang Yang raised his hands, clapped Van der Beck, and said, hugging the player.

"Boss, I'll ask you next, I must reverse it!" Van der Beck gritted his teeth.

Yang Yang nodded, "Don't worry, leave it to me!"

After the two hugged each other, one walked onto the court and the other walked onto the bench.

Applause came from the Cruyff Stadium.

Ajax fans can't wait to call Yang Yang because the team missed too many scoring opportunities.

Just after Yang Yang came on the court, he had not had time to touch the ball, and Juventus also made a substitution while taking advantage of the opportunity to die.

Allegri replaced Mandzukichi with Douglas Costa.

The Croatian center is not old, only 33 years old at the end of the season, but for a center who is known for its strong body and strength, the older you are, the greater the strength you show.

This is how Mandzukizzi is today.

At the Cruyff Stadium tonight, he was completely imprisoned by De Rigt, and he didn't even have a shot.

By the way, in the first half of this game, Juventus had three shots, one shot on the right side, and the only chance to shoot on the right side was caught by Cristiano Ronaldo and scored a goal.

But so far in the second half, Juventus didn't even shoot a shot in the fifteen minutes.

Yang Yang's confidence in Ajax is not for no reason.

...

Yang Yang knew very well that Juventus had replaced Douglas Costa’s purpose, but he did not intend to make adjustments.

The reason is very simple. Ajax's biggest problem lies not in his opponents, but in himself.

Press at high positions, grab the ball, fight back on the spot, create opportunities, and score goals!

Among them, Ajax's biggest problem lies in the goal.

So, after playing, Yang Yang ignored what Douglas Costa came up to do. He still ran and covered the way Van der Beck was on the court just now. Even because he was a substitute, his range of activities was much larger than Van der Beck who played for 60 minutes.

This is also Yang Yang's strategy, allowing Van der Beck to output 60 minutes at full power, consuming the physical fitness of Juventus defensive players.

Active running and large range of activities are all characteristics of Yang Yang.

...

Ajax once again attacked Juventus' penalty area, but failed to create a shot opportunity.

Juventus got the ball in the backcourt, but Ajax directly pressed and pressed inside and outside the penalty area.

This move made the Zebra Legion's defenders very uncomfortable, especially the young Rugani.

After being pressed by Nerez, he directly passed the ball to his right baseline near the baseline and handed it to Cancelo in the open position.

But as soon as Cancelo stopped the ball, he saw Ajax's left defender Taliafico pushing him directly.

Damn, is this guy crazy?

He thinks he is a winger or a fullback?

Although Cancelo is also a full-back who is famous for his assisting ability, like Taliafico, who loses the ball, directly kicks the opponent's baseline, Cancelo asks himself that he can't imagine it, and Juventus does not allow this situation to happen.

Cancelo had no choice but to rush to pass it to Bentancur, a teammate on the right.

But unexpectedly, Yang Yang suddenly jumped out like a ghost, and before Bentankull, he stopped the ball in his chest and picked peaches again!

After Yang Yang stopped the ball in his chest, he without waiting for Bentankur to react, he led the ball horizontally and quickly passed it into the penalty area.

As soon as Nerez stopped the ball, he was immediately double-teamed by three Juventus defensive players, but the Brazilian players were very agile and had a very fast movement frequency. After protecting the ball, they passed the ball lightly with their left foot.

Jovic pulled to the top of the penalty area, stopped the ball, blocked Bonucci with his body, and quickly passed to the right.

Sancho stopped the ball at the front of the penalty area and faced Sandro directly. When he was about to take a foot, he attracted Sandro's attention, but suddenly passed the ball to the bottom line on the right.

Ashraf rushed along the right line with extreme speed, like a sharp arrow, penetrating Juventus's iron wall, and caught up with the ball in the undefensive area on the right side of the penalty area. After adjustment, he directly kicked a low ball and sent it to the goal.

Ashraf's pass was quickly and urgent, while Ajax's center and winger, as well as Juventus' defender, were pulled to the outside of the penalty area by Jovic and Sancho, resulting in the area near the small penalty area being empty.

But at the back point, Yang Yang, who had just picked Juventus peaches on the left side of the penalty area, suddenly appeared on the left side of the goal. Facing Ashraf's cross, he easily shot and sent the Moroccan international's cross to the bottom of the net.

It looks indescribable and freehand, and it is indescribable and calm!

It was not until the referee's effective whistle sounded that the entire Cruyff Stadium burst into thunderous cheers.

More than 50,000 fans were shouting a name in unison.
Chapter completed!
