There was a clear division of labor on the field, and everyone had their own roles.
There was no need for the players to overstep their boundaries, and Ajax did not have a role to shoulder all the responsibilities.
Qin Xiong was the midfield commander, and the manager had already made this clear.
Therefore, it was natural for him to give the orders.
Even Van Der Vaart did not have any objections. The captain was the captain, and the core was the core. The captain should be the spiritual leader, and not necessarily the tactical core player.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Van Der Vaart, what would they think?
Qin Xiong, do his job well and create opportunities for the team!
And what was it that they had to do well in their duties?
Score goals!
You create, we score goals.
How to score goals, I do. How to create, you do.
After Qin Xiong made the decision to control the team's rhythm and slow down to attack, the other teammates obeyed. This was also due to Qin Xiong's keen insight of the overall situation in the past few games.
He had this ability, and he was the best in the team.
Why did they not listen to him?
Everyone wanted to win, so everyone had to make the most of their advantages and work together.
In a tight defensive zone, the space was narrow, and the rate of mistakes was very low. Perhaps a mistake to break through, or a second of hesitation to pass, would lead to the opponent's encirclement and the loss of the ball.
Therefore, Qin Xiong chose a slow, fast-paced offensive system, which was often built on the basis of extremely high tacit understanding and individual ability.
In terms of individual ability, Ajax crushed Hague, but in terms of tacit understanding, it was hard to say, especially in a new tactical system, and with Pinar's recuperation, he needed to slowly improve his condition.
Hague was still heavily guarded in the danger zone in front of the goal.
Qin Xiong began to slowly dribble the ball to ensure that he did not lose the ball. He dribbled the ball to the front of the field, and Pinar was very close to him, but Pinar was clearly marked by the opponent. This was the point where Qin Xiong had the highest probability of passing the ball.
However, Qin Xiong passed the ball to Van Der Vaart in the front right. After the pass, Qin Xiong ran along the passing route to Van Der Vaart.
At the same time, Pinar understood and retreated!
When he retreated, he actually switched positions with Qin Xiong. He became the center midfielder, and Qin Xiong became the attacking midfielder!
With such movements, Pinar was able to disrupt the thoughts of his opponent, who had been keeping an eye on him.
Subconsciously, they would follow Pienaar for a few steps. Most of their attention would be drawn to Pienaar.
This was a form of cover and restraint.
Even better, at this time, Qin Xiong ran to Van Der Vaart's original position, and Van Der Vaart dribbled the ball to the middle. There was originally no space there, but because of Pinar's retreating interference, Van Der Vaart had space to cut across.
Van Der Vaart and Qin Xiong had actually completed a switch at this moment. Qin Xiong went to the right side of the penalty area, close to the flank.
At this time, the three players completed a switch, and the opponent's tight and orderly defensive line suddenly panicked!
They went to surround Van Der Vaart, and the captain was probably not familiar with the way to cut across and find an angle to shoot. He had no choice but to safely pass the ball back to Qin Xiong.
Qin Xiong watched the football roll towards him. When the opponent's full back closed in, he suddenly sped up and ran forward, pretending to take the same cross-cut route as van der Vaart, so the opponent also passively came to encircle Qin Xiong. Probably because of the overlapping of their thinking, the second time they faced a Ajax player who took the same route in the same area, The Hague's defensive players repeated the previous defense.
This had a huge impact on their thinking. It was disruptive, confusing, and amazingly effective.
However, Qin Xiong suddenly kicked the ball in the direction of the end line, and charged into the penalty area from between the opponent's center back and full-back!
At the same time, Van Der Vaart, who was in the middle, also charged into the penalty area. He and Qin Xiong exploded at the same time!
They still had this kind of tacit understanding. After all, Qin Xiong could not dribble the ball to "hit" Van Der Vaart, and the Dutch golden boy could also predict Qin Xiong's next development.
Coupled with Ibrahimovic in the penalty area, Ajax's threatening offensive suddenly burst forth!
Qin Xiong had already created an excellent attacking opportunity when he charged into the penalty area. He chose to cross the ball at a position parallel to the penalty area line.
Van Der Vaart, who had outflanked the front point, kept pushing the ball with his left foot. It was too close to the goal. Before The Hague's goalkeeper could lower his center of gravity to save, the ball had already rolled into the goal line. Van Der Vaart had hit the far corner.
The Amsterdam Athletic Stadium erupted in thunderous cheers.
The heroic Dutch golden boy pointed at Qin Xiong, rushed over, and jumped straight up. After being firmly hugged by Qin Xiong, Ajax's players gathered to celebrate the goal.
Comain firmly clenched his fist and waved it around on the sidelines.
Jax had done a great job in this attack.
Moreover, the embryonic form of the core concept of the new technical and tactical system was also revealed.
Unpredictable positional and role changes, and highlighted the role of technical ability in the key explosive attack!
On the way back to prepare for the kickoff, Qin Xiong and Pinar walked side by side. He discussed with Pinar how to play in the next game.
Qin Xiong hoped to establish a possession advantage in the front field with Pinar.
Offense and defense were always in conflict, and there was a distinction between initiative and passivity.
For example, Italy's defense seemed to be slightly passive, but their defense was tight. They did not pay attention to taking the initiative to snatch the ball. They just waited for the opponent to break through. Then, their defense of planning before acting took the initiative to seize the opportunity.
Now, Qin Xiong hoped to be in the front field with Pinar, to take the initiative and let the opponent snatch the ball. As long as the opponent snatched the ball, it would be easier for them to break through.
Although this was not the way to play in a top class match, it was like going back to the game against AC Milan. If the opponent did not snatch the ball, you had to wait for the opponent to snatch it. Did this not become a stalemate situation?
However, rice should be eaten bite by bite. If you have not learned how to walk, don't think about running.
Just like what Louis Van Gaal taught Qin Xiong: before creating opportunities, you must first create an advantage. Only with an advantage, there will be more opportunities.
Hague did not press on aggressively just because he had lost the ball.
Perhaps it was because the gap in ability was too big. Hague only wanted to lose as little as possible, and his defensive posture did not change at all.
Qin Xiong and Pinar began to create this advantage in the front field. Pinar observed Qin Xiong's way of controlling the ball and followed suit.
They did not suddenly accelerate in the front field, nor did they pass the ball hastily. They only controlled the ball. It looked like they were purely controlling the ball.
And the defenders were just beside them. Could they just watch? No, they still could not help but snatch the ball!
In a narrow space, Qin Xiong and Pinar were able to shake off their opponents, especially when their opponents rushed over and gave up their center of gravity. As long as they changed the direction of the ball, it would be easy to brush past their opponents.
Pinar understood Qin Xiong's idea.
The two of them worked together, and with the help of the fullback, they easily created an absolute offensive advantage in the front field.
In the 24th minute of the match, Qin Xiong received Pinar's pass. The opponent was toyed with to the point of losing his mind. When the two of them came for a pincer attack, Qin Xiong suddenly sped up!
He dribbled the ball and rushed through the gap between the two of them!
Then, after he attracted the attention of the opposing fullback, he immediately sent a diagonal straight ball. Snede cut inside the penalty area from the left wing, received Qin Xiong's pass, and suddenly passed the ball back to Qin Xiong. At this time, The Hague's defense in the penalty area was in complete chaos. Qin Xiong sent a ball under his foot to Ibrahimovic in the penalty area.
Ibrahimovic, who was originally under heavy lockdown, was now free. First, Qin Xiong sped up to harass him. Then, Snede charged into the penalty area and became a threat. The defenders around Ibrahimovic went around to rescue him. In the end, Ibrahimovic was freed. He was like a wild beast, able to wreak havoc after being released.
Receiving the ball under his foot from Qin Xiong, Ibrahimovic flicked the ball horizontally, turned his body diagonally to the goal, and shot a powerful shot!
The ball went into the net, and The Hague's goalkeeper could only look at the ball and sigh.
After Ibrahimovic's goal, there was no celebration. His teammates walked up to him and high-fived each other, as if they had done something insignificant.
However, when they looked at each other, the teammates understood the importance of these two goals.
They represented the success of their new tactical system!
In actual combat, when faced with a tight defense, at least in terms of tactics, they were much more effective than their previous tactics.
Manager Comain also saw this point. Before he could get excited, he let out a long sigh of relief.
This helped the team to regain their confidence, and also minimized the blow of losing the Champions League.
However, The Hague was not a challenging opponent. The biggest obstacle in front of Comain's eyes would be the Champions League match against Celta at the end of the month!
