Football No. 10: God's Perspective

Chapter 245 Finally got in

Ajax and Manchester United were like a replica of the first round, but the roles were swapped.

Who could have thought that the Jia family, which had been doing well recently, would be forced into a dead end by Manchester United at their home ground with a huge advantage.

At the critical moment, Wang Po, who had been marginalized in the eyes of the media and replaced as the core of the team, stood up and used his personal ability to control the ball, giving the frightened Ajax team a chance to breathe.

The bad first half finally ended.

Look at the players of the Ajax team, each of them had a confused look on their faces, and even the coach Ten Hag was very upset.

The fans of the Cruyff Stadium also lost their pre-match enthusiasm and were in a low mood.

"Why did it happen suddenly?"

The reporters following the Ajax team were also discussing the team's poor performance in the first half.

"I think this game is going to be bad. What did De Jong and Van der Beck play in the first half? XJB played."

...

Ajax's poor performance was beyond everyone's expectations, especially the sluggish performance of the two core players, which was completely opposite to the recent highlights in public opinion.

As an opponent, Manchester United coach Solskjaer was barely satisfied with the team's performance in the first half. If the full score is 100, then the team's performance in the first half deserves 75 points. The fighting spirit and tactics are full marks. The only thing is that if one more goal is scored, it will be a perfect performance.

During the halftime break, Ten Hag tried his best to calm the players' mentality. As a coach with 15 years of experience, he deeply knew that at this time, giving psychological massage to the players is better than explaining tactics.

The halftime break passed quickly, and soon, the Ajax players were on the field again.

"If there is any ball that you can't handle, you can give it to me, it's okay."

Wang Po, who is only 19 years old, is like an old player in the team at this moment, selflessly teaching young blood like Van der Beck and De Jong. This is a responsibility and a commitment.

Wang Po, who has experienced big scenes, understands that what the two people need most now is to rebuild their confidence.

"Beep~!"

The second half of the game began.

After the half-time break, the players of Manchester United became lively again, with high morale and no decrease at all. As soon as they came up, they continued the high-pressure attack.

The purpose is very simple, to score a goal quickly, defeat the last psychological defense line of Ajax, and buy an insurance for themselves.

However, the situation is different. In the first half, Ajax's ball was more transmitted and sorted by Van der Beck and De Jong, two young people, but from the second half of the first half, the ball passed more at Wang Po's feet. The personal ability and level of this world footballer are beyond doubt.

Even if McTominay, Matic, and Pogba took turns to strangle him, they still couldn't get the slightest advantage. It was too difficult to grab the ball from the feet of Ajax's No. 29 player.

All they could do was to hate, restrict, and compress Wang Po's passing space and passing route as much as possible.

But no one knew how Wang Po's eyes grew. He was like a player playing a football game. The movements of the whole field, whether it was the running positions of teammates or the movement of defenders, were all imprinted in his head and he knew them all.

Every time he got the ball, he could always make the most correct choice, which made Manchester United very uncomfortable.

Here it comes, the Cruyff Stadium, which had been silent for 65 minutes, was filled with cheers again.

After Wang Po got rid of Matic, he made a low pass, giving Kasiela space to sprint.

In terms of speed, Kasiela was comparable to Wan Bissaka who was defending him, but in terms of physical fitness, he was weaker than the latter.

However, the frequent forward attacks consumed Wan Bissaka's physical energy. Not only that, after getting the ball, Wan Bissaka was actually not in his defensive position. At this moment, he was gritting his teeth and desperately retreating to his defensive position.

Casilla, who was not under much defensive pressure, drove straight into the attacking area with the ball.

It has to be said that Wan Bissaka, who was introduced by Manchester United during this transfer period, played a too tough role on the defensive end. He returned to the defensive position before Casilla handled the ball, which made it impossible for the former to attack the goal directly. He could only choose to pass the ball to the back point as a second choice.

Jim, who entered the penalty area, headed the ball to Dolberg in the middle. The latter held the ball with his back, stopped the ball with his chest, and knocked it with his heel. The unexpected shooting method made the goalkeeper De Gea have no reaction. It was a pity that the ball was off the line and rolled out of the goal post.

What a pity.

The whole Cruyff Stadium was filled with sighs.

Even Wang Po shook his head when he saw it.

Here, Manchester United escaped a disaster, and goalkeeper De Gea quickly sent the ball to the goal.

Pogba in the midfield steadily took the high ball, facing De Jong behind him, and passed the ball to Martial with a half turn.

This ball is dangerous.

Wang Po has keenly noticed the loopholes in the defense line. Just at the front of the penalty area, De Jong has been attracted by Pogba. This position is currently an empty area, and he returns to defense at high speed.

As expected, throughout the game, Rashford did not have any advantage in the high-altitude confrontation with De Ligt. Martial chose to pass the ball in reverse triangle when he was stared at by Mazraoui. Standing in that position was the defensive midfielder McTominay who participated in the fast break.

Unfortunately, Wang Po was quick to detect the ball and intercepted it from behind.

The next moment after getting the ball, Wang Po looked up to observe the running position of his teammates and was already organizing the team's attack.

McTominay did not dare to hesitate and took action directly. He had to stop the ball even if he had to pay a yellow card.

Unfortunately, Xiao Mai still underestimated Wang Po's physical strength. Under his hard pull, the ball was still passed.

On the left side of Manchester United, Jim's speed started.

Luke Shaw just ran to the front court to participate in the attack, and turned around and was hit by someone behind him. He tried his best to defend, but Jim was not Casillas. He had great confidence in speed. He cut directly into the penalty area and shot into the goal before Jones could make up for it.

Got in, finally got in.

Jim's goal helped Ajax 1-2, and the total score was 4-3 again.

Cheer, Cruyff Stadium.

After scoring, Jim pointed at Wang Po with both hands and laughed excitedly.

The two old teammates ran to the die-hard fans area, waving their fists and celebrating wildly, sharing the joy with the fans on the scene and feeling their cheers.

Ten Hag on the sidelines couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

During the previous few rounds of attack and defense, his nervous heart was about to jump out, but fortunately, the goddess of luck still favored these young people.
