Chapter 40: Rise and fall

It is obvious that the players of Ajax team are not very eager to attack. After all, they all have one player missing and are one goal ahead, so the players are a little lazy.

"Occurrence, run, don't be like a foal." Mark is different from them now. Mark plays football with his life in every game now, so Mark is simply careless.

After hearing Mark's roar, the players gradually began to change their mentality and became a little positive in their offense.

"Mark is really passionate." After seeing Mark roaring on the sidelines, the players on the court began to improve a little, and then they couldn't help but think in their hearts: "He is really the best candidate for captain on the court, but the captain is Raphael now. Wouldn't it be bad if Mark is allowed to be captain on the court? No, Mark can't be allowed to be captain. However, Mark's performance on the court is getting better and better, and his appeal is getting stronger and stronger. If he is really not allowed to be captain, will Van der Fate's authority on the court be threatened?"

Koeman is not unreasonable. Mark has indeed gradually established the idea of ​​Mark as the core in the minds of Ajax players. Although Mark did not serve as the captain, everyone seems to treat Mark as the captain. This may also be related to Mark's personality. The never-give-up character is combined with abundant physical fitness and tenacious defense and offense. There are not many people like this even looking at the world football world. But once the captain is replaced and Mark is allowed to be the captain, even if Van der Fate doesn't say it, he will definitely have an objection, and Van der Fate and Mark are good friends, which will definitely create a certain gap between the two.

In fact, Koeman really doesn't know Mark very well. Even if Koeman lets Mark be the captain now, Mark will definitely not accept it, because he doesn't have the idle intention to be a captain. After becoming a captain, he cannot increase his honor points, so Mark hopes to get better through the competition. However, Mark has served as captain once before, so he can just have fun. If Mark always keeps being captain, Mark can't do that.

However, no matter what Koeman thinks on the court, Mark will naturally not know. Now Mark has put all his attention on this game. Now it is Ajax's opportunity to attack. Since Ajax no longer has a winger, if he attacks through the wing, he can only wait for two full-backs to get in the attack.

Fortunately, both Ajax's full-backs are both powerful offensive than defense, especially Maxville on the left side, with a strong attack power.

In fact, Maxville should not be a full-back. He should be a full-time forward because he has a lot of offensive firepower. If he is a full-back, his defensive ability is not very good. After all, he is a Brazilian full-back. Generally, Brazilian full-backs are rushing forward with red eyes. The most representative one is Robert Carlos. Although Carlos' defensive ability is also good, it is far worse than his offensive ability.

However, it is just the time to use Maxville's strengths. Head coach Coman must only be able to go up one of the two-man attacks. If left defender Maxville goes up, right defender Trabelsey can't go up, and Trabelsey can't go up, then Maxville can't go up.

In addition, the midfield also needs to protect the positions of the two full-backs after they go up. Of course, this task is De Jong. After all, De Jong was also a full-back before, and he can play both full-backs, so this makes up for the space for the two full-backs to rush up.

Maxville came to the midfield soon after he stepped forward, and then Feyenoord's right forward Lanzade stepped forward to interfere with Maxville. Maxville saw Lanzade who came up to defend himself and quickly passed the football to Mark in the middle, and then ran over to him as he thought about the front. After Mark saw Maxville pass the football to him, Mark had no choice. After all, passing was not his strength, Mark directly gave it to Galassick behind him and then ran towards the front.

Before Mark came to the first team, Galasek was always the best candidate for the main midfielder. However, due to his age and Mark's position, he can only serve as one of the rotation lineups. However, the Czech Iron Waist had no complaints. He felt that it was natural that Mark was better than him and should appear in the main lineup. All he needed to do was to work hard during training and then strive to be able to give the team the greatest help in his limited playing time. This is the professional quality of an excellent player.

Maxville on the road got the overhead ball from Galasek and continued to run forward. Seeing Ajax's forward Babel also pulled to the side, Maxville passed the ball to Babel and then prepared to cooperate with him. Now Mark has also rushed outside Feyenoord's penalty area, but Mark did not rush into the penalty area. Mark knew that his body had no advantage. If he ran directly into the penalty area, he would definitely be lost under the strong body of Feyenoord's defender, so Mark was ready to wait outside the penalty area and use his running to grab a shot.

The second half has been played for more than ten minutes. If Ajax can use this opportunity to score, it will undoubtedly add more confidence to the mentality of Ajax's players in the next game.

At this time, since Babel ran out of the penalty area and sought cooperation with Maxville, he brought out a defender Karen who defended him. Babel now passed the football to Maxville and continued to run outside. Babel did this to give Mark less defensive players in the penalty area and make him more relaxed in finding opportunities.

Maxville is now heading towards the baseline. At this time, he received Babel's pass and didn't even think about it. The pass was a half-high ball, and the angle of the pass was the front point. Moreover, due to the angle, this pass was the most difficult position for the goalkeeper to defend. The goalkeeper did not dare to attack. If he didn't attack, he was afraid that Ajax's players would get it. This was such a position.

Mark was waiting for this opportunity. Now there are two midfielders of Feyenoord around him who are defending him closely, but Mark's explosiveness and speed have taken advantage of it. Mark ran directly into the penalty area. Mark's advantage is that he has a keen sense of smell and ran to the front point and then shot with a scorpion.

Mark did this action not to prove anything to others, nor did he mean to show off. It was just that Mark was pushed by Feyenoord's central defender after grabbing the ball and was somewhat out of balance. However, in order not to waste this opportunity, Mark directly made this incredible shot.

All Feyenoord's players were paying attention to Mark's shooting, but he didn't expect Mark to shoot in this way. Goalkeeper Zutbier habitually fell to the ground to save. When he fell to the ground, he saw the football flew into the goal from the top of his head. If Zutbier didn't react so quickly, he would definitely get the football. But unfortunately, Zutbier reacted too quickly, so that he fell to the ground early and couldn't get up now.

"goooooooooooal!! Scorpion's tail swinging shot, Mark's shot was so wonderful," commentator Wang Bing shouted excitedly at the microphone. Mark's goal was indeed worthy of his loud cheers, because it was really beautiful.

"What are you doing? So many people can't stand him alone." Head coach Van Marvik couldn't help but curse. It was obvious that he seemed very dissatisfied with the fact that several defensive players on the court could not defend Mark alone.

"Mark, you're doing well, so beautiful." At this time, the head coach Koeman in Ajax's coaching seat praised Mark as if showing off, and then looked at Feyenoord's head coach Van Marvik with a deep meaning, and it seemed to be saying, "Don't you look down on me? Look at the players I trained."

Van Marvik had no time to see Koeman's actions. Van Marvik is now thinking about what to do next. However, Koeman now took the lead in changing his moves and directly gave Van Marvik confidence.

Because Koeman has completely replaced the forward Babel, and another midfielder Litmanin is replaced. Now Ajax has completely defended. Koeman believes that Ajax can defend with the advantage of two goals. He replaced Litmanin in the hope that he can control the ball more and spend more time on the court.

Van Marvik saw that Koeman had an iron barrel formation and he also dispatched troops. After replacing a defender and a midfielder, Feyenoord now has a super attack formation of 253.

However, in the next game, Van Marvik looked at the iron barrel formation on the court and couldn't help but feel a little headache. There were a few moves to break the iron barrel formation, first of which was to strengthen the breakthrough on the wing, attract the defenders to the wing, and then transfer to the middle to complete the shot!

High-altitude bombing, with good air-control ability, header or directly attack!

There must be a long-range shot expert. The iron barrel array generally presses too far behind and completes the world wave within 20 or 30 meters in front of the penalty area!

Using set pieces to score, there are good free kick masters! Directly talk to the goalkeeper! Of course, relying on personal skills to bring the ball into the penalty area and fake falls is also a good choice.

Feyenoord players have several good midfielders. Van Persie has good breakthrough ability and passes. Kuyt has good breakthrough ability. Moreover, Kuyt is facing Maxville, who is not strong in defense. It would be a waste of resources to not allow them to break through.

Now Feinnod has completely controlled the midfield, and Ajax's players are all piled up within 30 meters of his penalty area. Feyenoord's van Persie has been fully guarded by Mark. Koeman gave him a task after Mark scored, which is to keep a blind eye to Van Persie, and don't worry about the rest. Feyenoord's attack is too much now, relying on Kuyt-Elanzadeh on the right.

However, Feyenoord's offense on the right also played very well. The breakthrough combination of Kuyt and Lanzade made Ajax either intercept the ball or make a foul.

Feyenoord's free kick king Van Persie has threatened Leicester City's goal many times, and it seems that it is only a matter of time before the goal is scored.

In fact, this is not the case. Although Van Persie's free kick posed a great threat to Ajax, there were no big loopholes in Ajax's defense line. Moreover, because Van Persie took the free kick, Mark could also use the gap time without having to keep a guard against Persie to give the defense line enough help.

As Feyenoord's head coach Van Marvik once again made a fuss and let his central defender run into Ajax's penalty area to compete for the header.

This time, the pressure on Ajax's defense line suddenly increased. The breakthrough of Feyenoord's two full-backs also brought opportunities to Amoa and Kuyt in the penalty area, because the two of them constantly break through often create defensive loopholes in one position or even multiple positions. Now Mark can only let go Van Persie and prevent him from breaking through the cross, but Mark cannot defend other players.

If Ajax's goalkeeper Stecronburg had not been able to perform his bravery, Ajax might have lost points long ago. Ajax's head coach Koeman also stood on the sidelines of the court with an anxious look on his face.

Like Koeman's anxious mood, Feyenoord's head coach Van Marvik was also very anxious to watch the performance of the players on the court. Although Feyenoord's players now have an advantage in the field, it is still unreliable to be unable to score goals. Because the game ends, Ajax's confidence in defense will be stronger. If he can score earlier, Feyenoord's players may also be more and more confident in the offense. Now it is a confrontation between the spear and the shield.

The Ajax team is still continuing to play their full-line defensive formation. In fact, they have no other way. They can only continue to persist. Since the head coach has already arranged such a tactic, they must implement it resolutely. The Ajax no longer has the ability to counterattack because the forward players have been replaced by Koeman. The Ajax players can only strive for good luck in this game and can continue. However, in the 70th minute, Lanzade broke through on the right and passed the ball. Kuyt followed the Ajax team's Heatinga who defended his Ajax team. However, Kuyt knew that Heatinga's biggest problem was that he often had rash attacks. Although Heatinga did not make mistakes now, it does not mean that he will never make mistakes. The defender just cannot have a chance to make mistakes. Although Heatinga is strong, he is not afraid of any confrontation with any power-type defender.

But Kuyt is not a pure power center. The reason why he is called New Fanny is that he has an unparalleled sense of goal, just like Inzaghi, the king of opportunism in Italy. However, he is not Inzaghi, who is taller, more powerful, and more comprehensive in technology. Moreover, Kuyt has stronger strength than Fanny, which is that he is physically strong and good at fighting. It can be said that Kuyt is the representative of modern diligent forwards. Maybe he has no chance in a game, but every opportunity is obtained with his own diligence.

Although Kuyt has not cooperated with Lanzade for a long time, it is easy for superstars to spark. Kuyt may have to pass the ball after seeing Lanzade break through one. He has also done such tactical training before, usually with front and back points. However, now Ajax's penalty area is full of defensive players, so obviously the chance of passing the back points is greater.

Kuyt had no choice but to bet on his own when he was not skilled in cooperating with Lanzade, betting that he could understand Lanzade's meaning.

Kuyt pretended to rush forward, and Hetinga immediately ran with Kuyt without a doubt.

But at this time, Kuyt ran back after a few steps and quickly arrived at the outside of the small penalty area. At this time, Lanzade's pass had already arrived, and Kuyt shot.

Because there were too many people in the penalty area, the football hit the arm of Ajax's defender Escud, and the referee pointed it into the penalty area with a whistle, and the penalty kick was fouled and the handball was handball.

At the same time, the referee gave Escud a yellow card. The Ajax players of course expressed dissatisfaction. They believed that this was an unconscious handball and could not be awarded a penalty.

"The referee is not a penalty kick at all. That was not a conscious defensive move just now, right?" Mark rushed over excitedly and said to the referee, but Mark did not shout at the referee.

But the referee ignored the Ajax player. He was very close and saw it very clearly. The referee warned the Ajax players not to say anything, otherwise they would give them a yellow card warning.

Now the players who Ajax came forward to argue were shut up obediently. They were not smart yet! The worm liked to ask the referee to apply for a yellow card if it was okay.

Mark flashed angrily. He actually didn't see the ball clearly just now. He just wanted to say a few words to the referee out of instinct. Now that the referee has said that, Mark can only shut up.

The penalty kick was taken by Kuyt. Kuyt walked to the 12-yard line, took a deep breath and started running. Maybe Kuyt was too pursuing angles, so the ball hit the left post of the goal and bounced for a moment or flew into the net.

Van Marvik bounced the football that Kuyt took on the sidelines and felt his heart jumping. It was not until the football rolled into the net that Van Marvik raised his arm to celebrate the goal, and shouted to vent his always nervous mood.

"gooooooooal!! Kuyt scored a goal, and he scored the penalty he created himself. The value of this penalty is worth a thousand gold, and there is still a need to be played in the next game." The commentator shouted excitedly. He was also frustrated in this game because Ajax always suppressed Feyenoord and played. It was not until Ajax took the initiative to give up the attack, but he gained the advantage in the scene.
