Chapter 54 The Situation is Passive 【Please recommend! ! 】

After an offseason of two international breaks.Over the weekend, the major European leagues have rekindled their battles one after another.The Waiters team set off for Amsterdam on Friday. In the next round, they will challenge one of the top three Eredivisie teams and the well-deserved No. [-] giant Ajax in the Eredivisie.

As the most successful club in the history of the Eredivisie, Ajax was once the symbol of the Eredivisie league.The Eredivisie giants, who once won the Champions League four times, created a precedent for the total attack and defense tactics in the world football in the era of Johan Cruyff.Later, Ajax created the fantastic 95 golden generation, Van der Sar, Seedorf, Rijkaard, Kluivert... In the eyes of old Ajax fans, it was an era of superstars comparable to Ferguson's Manchester United "Class of 92".

Although the Eredivisie is now called the Triwizard Hegemony, in the eyes of the Eredivisie fans, only Ajax is eligible to be called a giant.

As soon as he arrived at the perimeter of the Amsterdam Stadium, Wen Zhihao saw a large number of fans of the home team in red and white striped shirts holding team flags, their faces painted in pastel, and preparing to enter the stadium.To his slight surprise, the home fans saw them pass by and didn't speak ill of each other.When you think about it, the rankings of the two sides reflect the gap in strength.The opponent ranks second in the league, while Waiters only ranks ninth.Since it is not a threat, why bother to create side effects.

"Zhihao, are you nervous?" Before stepping on the field to warm up, Zhang Yuning deliberately cared about Wen Zhihao.

Wen Zhihao nodded: "A little bit, but it's okay."

What Wen Zhihao said was the truth, the first first-team match of his career in Europe was about to begin, and the opponent was a giant, so how could he not be nervous.However, Wen Zhihao was also a person who experienced big scenes before, and now he has his own way of adjusting his mentality, which can ensure that he can quickly enter the game state.

Although there is a gap in strength between him and his opponent, Fraser is not going to be caught without a fight.He played an aggressive 4-3-3 formation.The former Dutch national youth goalkeeper Lum guarded the goal. The center back combination chose the experienced Cruswick to partner with the young American center back Miazga. The two full backs were Kosuke Ota and Kashia.As Wen Zhihao showed strong organizational skills in training, Fraser left him the position of the three midfielders on the left, and the other two midfielders were Lashka and Kazaishvili.The frontcourt tridents are French teenagers Nakamba, Leerdan and the team's top scorer Van Wolfswinkle, nicknamed Fan Xiaolang.And Zhang Yuning can only continue to wait for the opportunity to play on the bench.

In the Ajax locker room, coach Frank De Boer saw Wen Zhihao's name appearing in the opponent's starting lineup, his brows were slightly frowned, and he was a little puzzled. Could it be him?

When Wen Zhihao shined in the Club World Cup at the end of last year, he made it clear to the club that he hoped to pursue this player with all his strength, but Leicester City took the lead. De Boer still had some regrets at that time.According to the feedback from the on-site scouts, Wen Zhihao's overall quality is extremely rare in Europe.And gave a very high comment at the end: the next Overmars!
De Boer really wanted to complain about the club's intelligence system at this time. This kind of player came to the Eredivisie and didn't report to himself in advance!
De Boer, who already has a wealth of coaching experience, made temporary adjustments to take care of Wen Zhihao, the Dutch national team meritorious defender Heitinga who was originally arranged at right back.

When Wen Zhihao officially stepped into the Amsterdam Stadium, he felt the heat wave from the audience, and his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up.Professional football stadiums in Europe are different from domestic stadiums. Players standing on the field can feel the sound of the audience roaring in their ears.Moreover, the audience stomped their feet deliberately in response to the cheers, and the ground of the entire stadium was shaking slightly.

Amsterdam TV commentator Carl Kohli was proud in his words: "This atmosphere is enough to make all opponents who come to this stadium tremble! Great Ajax! Show your strength to the fullest!"

On the other side, the commentator Nissen Peja and his partner Jan Carus on the Dutch National Television discussed the formation of the two sides with great interest: "The stronger Ajax lineup has not changed much, and Frank De Boer still has the strongest lineup in his mind. But..."

Peja suddenly looked at his partner suspiciously, pointed to a part of Waiters' starting roster and said, "Jane, Henk Fraser boldly selected a new player today. He has never represented Waiters before. Do you know anything about him?"

"Huh? Neeson, it seems that your intelligence work is not in place!" Carus joked to his companion instead.

"What? Is he famous?" Peja was even more puzzled.

Carus indirectly explained the confusion: "As the new Asian Footballer who has just been loaned from Leicester City, let us look forward to Wen's performance together!"

Amidst the din of the audience, the referee sounded the opening whistle.

Returning to Europe for the first time, Wen Zhihao felt that his body was still a little stiff, so he chose to control the rhythm and start smoothly.But his thoughts are not on the same channel as his teammates.Youngsters in the Eredivisie are used to the fast-paced back and forth between offense and defense.Therefore, there is basically no one in the midfield to cooperate with Wen Zhihao in short passes.As a result, Wen Zhihao could only make a long pass to instigate the offense, or he could only pass back to the back line. In short, he played very awkwardly on the field.

The Waiters players in the frontcourt were even more breathless.I finally ran to the front to grab a position, but when I looked back and saw that the ball was still passing in the midfield, some impatient players quit immediately.The French junior Nakamba yelled at Wen Zhihao: "Pass the ball forward, OK? Can't you read the situation? Will you play midfield!"

Wen Zhihao was very dissatisfied with Nakamba's attitude, but he was too young to refute, so he could only nod slightly.

As the game progressed, Wen Zhihao gradually shortened the distance between him and the striker.Kashiya, who was in charge of intercepting after a while, consciously expanded the mopping area, and relieved Wen Zhihao of his worries.

Seeing the positive changes in the team, Fraser began to have a smile on his face. Based on the current performance of the team, as long as there are no low-level mistakes, it is absolutely possible to compete with the opponent for a period of time.

After adapting in the first 10 minutes of the game, Ajax gradually showed its overall strength advantage and gradually took control of the situation on the field. Waiters could only take the initiative to withdraw the defense line and create threats with sporadic counterattacks.

At this time, a new problem appeared.

Because the opponent exerted too much pressure, the two wingers Nakamba and Leerdan had already received positions close to the full-backs. Waiters' counterattack could only rely on forward Van Wolfswinkel to complete a fulcrum.But Fan Xiaolang is very popular, and under the key care of Ajax's defense, it is very difficult to get the ball.Moreover, Ajax is very experienced, the range of the defenders is not large, and the entire defensive system has not loosened for a moment. It is basically impossible for Waiters to rely on his personal ability to penetrate the entire defensive system.

Fraser glanced at the bench, hesitated.
