This long-term attack was fruitless, and Wolfsburg's morale gradually declined.
Although Ajax did not have many beautiful attacks during this period, the number of shots was exactly 10 times that of Wolfsburg.
After all, the trident in the frontcourt, Dezeu in the midfield, and even the two midfielders can complete the shot at any time.
The threat is really not big. The tactic of five defenders and two midfielders really effectively limits Ajax's small-scale passing coordination. Ajax also has an unprecedented passing success rate. Didn't reach 80%.
This is enough to give Wolfsburg's defense a big thumbs up. You must know that facing Juventus in Serie A, Ajax's passing success rate is also as high as 93%.
Of course, the price of such a strong defense is that the offensive line personnel become weak, and it is somewhat difficult to score goals and break the game.
Perhaps this is Kestner's plan for this game, to get a draw or concede as few goals as possible.
But Ajax doesn't think so. Although Martin Jol is not a coach like Mourinho, he has the opportunity to resolve the battle in the first game, and he never wants to delay it to the second game.
He still vividly remembers the game against Fulham. The 4:1 lead in the first game was almost overturned.
Let's get at least five of them in this game.
It would be even better if we could keep a clean sheet against the opponent.
Ajax's forward players naturally think so too. Although they have no specific communication with head coach Martin Jol about the number of goals scored, who would think there are too many goals?
In the 38th minute, Emmanuelson received a pass from Alveedreder and seemed to seize the tail of the opportunity. He quickly started and rushed towards the opponent's defense like an arrow from the string.
His speed and determination kept opposing players at bay, and they could only watch helplessly as he rushed through the defense and towards Wolfsburg's penalty area.
After Emanuelson rushed to the front of the left wing, he did not hesitate at all, and his precise cross was hoisted into Wolfsburg's penalty area as accurately as a missile.
The ball drew a beautiful arc in the air and found Suarez accurately.
Suarez was already ready at this time. He was like a cheetah ready to go, keenly observing every movement on the court.
When Emmanuelson's pass fell into his sight, he started instantly, like a cheetah attacking, leaping high, showing amazing jumping ability.
He completed a high-altitude hook shot in the air that shocked everyone!
The ball flew into Wolfsburg's goal like a meteor and shot straight into the sky, triggering exclamations and cheers from the audience.
However, at this exciting moment, the referee blew the whistle.
He waved his hand to indicate that the goal was invalid.
This penalty was like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing the enthusiasm of Emmanuelson and Suarez.
But what surprised them even more was that the referee actually showed Suarez a yellow card. The penalty standard was that he raised his foot too high.
This penalty caused controversy and confusion on the court.
Many viewers thought this penalty was too harsh because Suarez's actions, although exaggerated, did not constitute a danger or foul.
But the referee insisted on his decision, and this decision made the game more tense and suspenseful.
Gabri also quickly signaled Xiao Yu to take Suarez away to prevent the referee from playing cards again, causing Ajax to play one less player.
Beep! ~Beep beep! ~
As the referee blew three whistles, the first half finally ended with the controversial penalty against Suarez.
In the locker room, Martin Jol calmed Suarez's emotions and told all the players about his amazing thoughts.
He wants to score at least five opponents in this game, and preferably keep a clean sheet.
With the controversial penalty at the end of the first half, the Ajax players were on fire. They all passed immediately and continued to score more goals in the second half, preferably three more.
Perhaps because he wanted to continue scoring goals, Martin Jol did not replace Xiao Yu, but replaced veteran Gabri in the attacking midfielder position.
The aging Spanish veteran's physical fitness is indeed his biggest problem. When his physical fitness is insufficient, he loses that aura, so it would be better to replace him with a rest.
So the young Sim De Jong was given a heavy responsibility by Martin Jol, asking him to deliver more shells to the front trident, and to complete long-range shots even if he had no chance.
Anyway, it’s just one word – just type it and that’s it!
At the beginning of the second half, Ajax resumed its comprehensive suppression of Wolfsburg.
More running and more short passing coordination made Wolfsburg's defense out of breath in less than ten minutes.
On the other hand, on Ajax's side, the entire field, except for Dezeu, is full of young and capable players.
The key is that they are all so good. Each one has better foot skills than the other, and their offensive and defensive awareness is better than the other.
In the 59th minute, Xiao Yu retreated to the top of the penalty area to receive Dezeu's long pass.
Facing the incoming ball, he stood firm as a rock, pushed away Gentner who jumped up to fight with him, caught the football firmly with his left foot, and immediately moved to the right to pass Schaefer who had already come up.
Facing Barzagli who was already on defense, Xiao Yu made a shot, but with a dunk, he passed Barzagli and continued to break into the penalty area.
Then the opponent's defenders Pekarik and Sasha Ritter also defended. Xiao Yu started again, but still didn't shoot. He spiked the ball again, and then faked another move with his left foot to the left, with another gesture. He kicked off, but it was a smash, knocking down Pekarik and Sasha Ritter.
Xiao Yu then used his left foot again to pass goalkeeper Benario and then pushed the ball into the empty goal.
These kicks were so real that the camera didn't even follow his movements.
"This ball is so beautiful! It's like a fairy ball!"
"Xiao Yu used his strong personal ability to dodge and maneuver past the opponent's entire defense and scored twice!"
"Is Maradona's soul possessed at this moment? A few years ago, Messi also copied Maradona's goal of five consecutive players. Today our Chinese player Xiao Yu can also do it."
"I think this is different from Maradona and Messi's long-distance attack that passed five people in a row. Xiao Yu's goal was shorter and he didn't use speed to force a breakthrough. He relied entirely on fake movements with his feet. Realized. More like Ibrahimovic, Xuan'er, do you remember Ibrahimovic's goal that stuns the camera with his foot?"
"Then, Xiao Yu should be the first forward to stun the camera after Ibrahimovic, haha!"
"Hahaha, your legs are so short when they are used! Wolfsburg's entire defense line was easily broken through by Xiao Yu alone. This has to be amazing. Counting the goalkeeper, Xiao Yu has defeated six people in a row. "
"This is how to defeat six generals after passing five levels, hahaha! This year's Puskas will give Xiao Yu another powerful competitive goal."
"It's not the fault of Wolfsburg's poor defense, it's just that Xiao Yu's personal ability is too strong!"
The goal sent the Amsterdam Arena into a frenzy.
Applause and cheers resounded throughout the sky.
The highlight of this moment belongs to Xiao Yu, to Ajax, and to the millions of fans and friends who are watching the game.
After scoring the goal, Xiao Yu rushed to the sidelines excitedly and knelt down in excitement.
He was so excited. He hadn't tried consecutive dribbles in a game for so long.
This goal was really enjoyable to score, but it was also too hate-inducing.
Xiao Yu opened his arms and didn't show off his dominance for long before the referee blew the whistle and signaled him to quickly return to his own half without wasting time.
Xiao Yu was speechless for this referee, who blew off Suarez's magical goal in the first half.
However, for any injustice, Xiao Yu knew that all he had to do was use his strength to crush the opponent and leave his opponent speechless.
The players on Wolfsburg's side really had no solution for this goal, and they also had more respect for Xiao Yu.
Magath even started to envy Martin Joel, wondering why he was not as lucky as this fat man.
He looked at Dzeko and Grafite in the frontcourt. The cooperation between these two gave him a lot of sweetness in the Bundesliga last season, and even knocked down the Bundesliga hegemon Bayern Munich.
Why did they lose their effect so quickly?
This year's Wolfsburg has achieved nothing on all fronts. There is no hope at home. Magath's hope is more pinned on the European competition. Although he fell from the Champions League to the Europa League, it is still a fortune. Not a bad income.
If you can win the championship, it will be an achievement that will allow you to keep your job!
However, all of this is getting further and further away from me.
Especially in this game, his disciples were beaten by Ajax and were unable to fight back.
Already four goals behind in just 60 minutes, can he still catch up?
However, no amount of melancholy changed the situation on the court.
Here, Misimovich was about to pass the ball to Dzeko in the penalty area, but Emmanuelson stole the ball with his toe, and the offensive and defensive situation on the field changed immediately.
However, Emmanuelson passed the ball, and Ajax did not complete a threatening attack. It only ended with a long shot from Sime de Jong.
In the 62nd minute, Anita showed his personal ability after successfully stealing the ball in the backcourt.
He was not afraid of Wolfsburg's defensive formation, and with his little Scud, he quickly dribbled the ball forward like a runaway wild horse.
Anita is well aware of his strengths. With his excellent speed and foot skills, he easily creates a channel on the wing.
When he completed the pass, he did not choose to pass the high ball like Emmanuelson, because he clearly knew that his feet were not strong.
Instead, he cleverly sent an inverted triangle pass that accurately found Sime de Jong outside the penalty area.
This pass made Ajax's offense extremely threatening, and Wolfsburg's defense also had to face this sudden threat.
