"Ajax successfully cut the ball."

"Frankie DeJong's long pass was cleared, Jovic stopped Yang Yang, and then passed to the right."

"Sancho got the ball, took a step forward, and passed it diagonally to the bottom line..."

"With a very simple counterattack cooperation, Ajax's counterattack speed is very fast!"

"Ashraf was sprinting forward, he was almost unstoppable on the wing, and no one could defend him..."

"Look at Ajax's counterattack this time."

"Ashraf caught up with the ball on the right side of Liverpool's penalty area and passed the ball low to the middle..."

"Jovic..."

"Van Dijk made a contribution at a critical moment!"

"Liverpool's central defender's defense is still very steady, and he stuck his position in time and blocked the ball first."

"If this counterattack is really something that Jovic can grab, then the goal is a high probability event."

"This is the characteristic of Ajax. The counterattack is very fast and the fight is very firm!"

"Especially Ashraf's quick insertion this time is like a Rockets."

"Ajax's pass and receiving cooperation is also very fast, basically one pass, only Sancho makes a slight adjustment."

"Liverpool should be careful, after all, giving opponents such opportunities is really dangerous."

...

Live TV footage can also be seen, and Klopp was very nervously shouting at Liverpool players on the sidelines.

It can be seen that this time Ajax's quick counterattack made him sweat.

This is the characteristic of Ajax!

From grabbing the ball to counterattacking, the entire conversion process is very efficient and very fast.

Liverpool has even arranged heavy troops in the frontcourt, and the whole team has been pressed near Ajax's 30-meter area, but Ajax still passed the ball with his team cooperation.

Frankie DeJong's contact and long pass, Jovic stopped the ball to Yang Yang, and then Yang Yang passed the ball to the right with a larger gap...

Such a threat is really too great!

But Klopp was determined to grab a goal.

He knew very well that Ajax was young and lacked experience. If they were allowed to continue playing like this, they would become more and more confident. But if Liverpool could grab a goal, Ajax's mentality would collapse.

By that time, even if Yang Yang is a god, he will not be able to change the mood of other players.

More importantly, Liverpool has pushed into the Ajax penalty area many times.

...

The charming temptation made Klopp choose to keep the status quo without adjusting.

Liverpool players on the court have also become more active.

Ajax's counterattack looked like a provocation to Liverpool, which would only further stimulate their anger and fighting spirit, but did not affect their confidence at all.

Facing the unrivaled Real Madrid, Liverpool will lack confidence, but facing Ajax, Liverpool will not!

The Reds are not Bayern Munich, not Manchester United, not Juventus, and not Barcelona.

At least, in terms of defensive strength, Liverpool is better than these players!

This reflects on the court, Liverpool's offense begins to play more resolutely.

But just over four minutes after the last counterattack, Ajax once again completed the defense on the left side of the penalty area.

Salah dribbled the ball from the right and was double-teamed by Frankie Dejong and Militon, and stabbed the ball to Taliafico on the left side. Before Salah pressed, he passed the ball directly to the frontcourt with a long pass on his left foot.

Jovic stopped the ball on the left side of the frontcourt before Matipu, but Liverpool's central defender was behind him.

After the Serbian center stopped the ball, he made a ball behind him, and Nerez rushed along the left side.

Arnold, who has become famous this season, quickly returned to the position and blocked Neres on the right side of the penalty area.

Neres slowed down and waited for his teammates in the middle to catch up, while he dribbled the ball and approached Arnold.

One-on-one, Nerez has enough confidence.

The Brazilian left winger made continuous skillful fake moves and tricked Arnold, then suddenly stabbed the ball to the bottom line, accelerated to catch up, and crossed to the back point.

After Jovic pulled the ball, Yang Yang rushed to the front. After seeing Nerez pass, he let go of Van Dijk and ran to the right side of the penalty area. He stopped the ball before Robertson.

The ball stopped steadily at Yang Yang's feet, Robertson behind him, Van Dijk was behind him, and Wijnaldum also returned to the position to defend, and three defensive players clamped Yang Yang.

But Yang Yang first stopped urgently and made a move to spike the ball and cut inward, which scared the Liverpool defensive players' heartbeat.

Yang Yang is proficient in left and right feet, and cutting inward and hitting the door is his best bet, so he can't be careless.

Just as Liverpool players tightened the encirclement, Yang Yang suddenly passed the ball back to the right.

It was Ashraf who suddenly inserted it at some point, and after getting the ball, he rushed straight to the bottom line and sent the ball to the goal.

Sancho, who had just disappeared, suddenly appeared, grabbed the landing point like a ghost, and hit a far corner at close range.

At this critical moment, Alison suddenly rushed out of the side, and in an unbelievable posture, he actually threw the shot from the small penalty area out.

In an instant, the entire court was in an uproar!

Ajax's counterattack was so sharp!

The cooperation is so good and so clever!

But Liverpool's defense, whether it is Van Dijk's key steal just now or Alison's side dive this time, is incredible.

Sancho was so angry that he yelled in the penalty area, obviously feeling very depressed that the shot failed to enter.

...

“Ajax’s two counterattacks were quite threatening.”

Mourinho's shouts came from the live broadcast of Bein TV.

The Portuguese madman is a master of counterattacks, and defensive counterattacks have always been his best.

"I have to say that Yang Yang's team's counterattack is really eye-catching. We can take a look. Every time we play from the ball intercepting to the counterattack, we play very fast, which is very rare in European football."

"Yes." Wenger also agreed, "This is the biggest feature of Ajax and the most commendable thing about Yang Yang, but it can also be reflected that Liverpool does not have much advantage in the scene at this moment, but is a little too enthusiastic. If Klopp still wants to continue to bet, then who will score the first goal next is hard to say."

"Haha." Mourinho laughed, "Yes, I'm more optimistic about Ajax's goal now, if Klopp doesn't make any changes."

In the live broadcast camera, Yang Yang ran over and held Sancho who was yelling and venting, signaling the kid not to be so irritable.

"No need to say much about Yang Yang's tactical value on the court. Ajax's two counterattacks were transitioned by him, and the psychological role was obvious enough. In this case, he comforted Sancho as soon as possible, which itself proves his huge role." Wenger analyzed seriously.

"That's right, so I always say that Yang Yang's role is far underestimated, not only in Real Madrid, but also in Ajax. He is not only a player, a head coach, but also the spiritual leader of the team, and he is the soul." Mourinho also highly praised Yang Yang.

Soon, Klopp was seen walking to the sidelines and directing the team to change their playing style.

"Klopp is indeed still demanding stability, this is a rational choice." Wenger agreed.

"Yes, Ajax has gradually stabilized his position now. In less than fifteen minutes, the young players began to adapt to the pressure and rhythm of the Champions League. In this case, Liverpool has missed the opportunity to score first and can only slow down and ensure that they do not concede the ball."

Wenger nodded and said: "But once Liverpool slows down, they can't control the ball. Wijnaldum, Henderson and Fabinho can't control the ball, and Liverpool doesn't have the genes to control the ball, so the situation should change in the future. Ajax should be able to get more control, while Liverpool takes the initiative to give up the ball."

"This is a test of Ajax's ability to attack." Mourinho smiled expectantly, "Klopp's defense has improved a lot this season. If Ajax gets possession but fails to create a threat, it is likely to turn into Liverpool's continuous counterattack and hit Ajax behind him."

"Henderson and Wijnaldum are good at passing the ball behind him," Wenger reminded.

"I have to say that the fighting at the opening stage was very exciting. I really didn't expect that Yang Yang was only 32 years old, but in terms of tactical sophistication, pre-match preparation, placing troops and on-site command, he was not at all inferior to Klopp." Mourinho felt very unbelievable.

"If there is really a so-called genius, then there is no doubt that I believe Yang Yang is such a genius!"

Wenger also exclaimed repeatedly, "The key is that his coaching style has changed a lot, and it is very rare to adopt different strategies according to different opponents. This makes me feel that I am really old!"

...

The commentary of two world-renowned coaches on Bein TV did not reach the Champions League finals far away in Madrid.

But with Klopp's active adjustment, Liverpool really took the initiative to give up the ball as the two famous coaches said, and adopted a more stable tactic, which led to Ajax's rebound in the field.

Yang Yang is also very clear that this change has both pros and cons.

The advantage is that Ajax finally survived the start of Liverpool's chaotic punch and was temporarily safe.

Next, Liverpool's pressing and pressure will be much less severe, and Ajax barely gained a foothold.

But the disadvantage is, after the ball is in hand, how can Ajax convert the ball advantage into an offensive threat?

Also, how to ensure Liverpool's counterattack after intercepting the ball?

Yang Yang was in the game, but his mind was always very clear. In addition, with the sidelines of Xavi Alonso and the coaching staff, he knew the situation on the court and clearly knew the every move of the enemy and us.

Klopp did not plan to take risks, and Yang Yang did not take risks either.

The game is unknown!

Ajax is at a disadvantage in terms of age, strength and experience. Faced with Liverpool, who has reached the Champions League final for two consecutive seasons, Yang Yang really has no confidence to pursue victory and scenes at the same time.
