In the process of Qin Xiong constantly passing the ball to the opponent, it was easy to create an illusion that he was more inclined to pass the ball!
This was the correct illusion!
But why was it fake?
Because it would paralyze the opponent, causing the opponent to be more inclined to block Qin Xiong's passing route in the defensive prediction. The secondary defensive prediction was to mark him to break through.
Japan's Beckham and Shinji Ono defended against Qin Xiong head-on.
Qin Xiong was still strolling leisurely, looking as if he was not a threat at all.
His body was slightly facing the front right side. His right foot stepped on the ball and pulled in that direction. Shinji Ono knew that Ajax's player, Pienaar, was there.
So, his body moved a step to the left side.
At the same time as he moved this step, Qin Xiong pulled the ball back to its original position and withdrew it.
Shinji Ono was shocked, afraid that Qin Xiong would break through from his right side, so he immediately moved a step back.
During the completion of these two movements, Qin Xiong was the one who took the initiative to control the rhythm, and he was more active than Shinji Ono. The third movement, pass!
The route was still the front right side!
Qin Xiong accelerated and dribbled the ball past Shinji Ono. Shinji Ono could do nothing!
The poor rhythm of the continuous movement made him unable to regain his balance and could only watch as Qin Xiong rushed past him.
Qin Xiong dribbled the ball in the direction of Pienaar, who immediately ran to the left side of the middle.
Qin Xiong walked diagonally down a path until it was dark!
He dribbled the ball to the right side. When he passed by Van Der Vaart, he passed the ball to Van Der Vaart, who stopped the ball in place, then ignored the ball and cut inside the penalty area.
The full back, Jean, subconsciously went to follow Van Der Vaart. The scene on the field was extremely strange.
The ball stopped there, and Van Der Vaart and Jean did not control the ball.
When Jean reacted, it was too late to grab the ball.
Qin Xiong rushed up, dribbled the ball and accelerated, breaking through his defense on the flank!
The fans in the stands cheered passionately!
Ajax's current offensive coordination in the front court was becoming more and more imaginative. It was unexpected, and the team's coordination was dazzling.
After Qin Xiong broke through Jean, he gently pushed the ball across the penalty area. Van Der Vaart, who was parallel to his position, received the rolling football and did not stop the ball. He directly passed the ball back to the top of the penalty area arc!
The defensive players of Feyenoord were flustered and the defensive line was turned upside down.
In this defense, most of them chased after Van Der Vaart or blocked his shooting angle, and some of them stared at the center forward, Ibrahimovic.
Instead, he exposed an opening at the top of the arc of the penalty area.
Van Der Vaart's pass was excellent, and the timing was perfect!
If it had been four days ago at the Estadio Vallecano, he would have definitely shot himself. Although it was difficult to feel the role of the captain as a spiritual leader on the field, at the very least, he was now really starting to use his talent to help the team. Let's, everyone, win together!
Pinar's threat at the top of the penalty area arc caused all of Feyenoord's defensive players to rush out to block him!
Pinar calmly observed the situation in the penalty area. He originally wanted to pass the ball to Ibrahimovic or shoot a long shot himself.
But with the swarm of opponents, the angle of direct shooting was almost blocked. Ibrahimovic was also left in the offside trap because of his slow retreat. The moment Pinar touched the ball, he pushed the ball diagonally with the arch of his foot.
The football rolled from the gap between Feyenoord's defenders to the left side of the penalty area.
There, Snede ran across the opponent's defensive line. It was not offside!
Good shot!
Snede stopped the ball, gently pushed it to the middle, and fired a heavy shot. The football flew into the goal in the blink of an eye.
"Ajax has scored! Ajax's recent performance has been praiseworthy. Qin Xiong instigated the attack from the midfield. He passed Shinji Ono and cooperated with Van Der Vaart to pass Jean. He passed the ball to Van Der Vaart. When we thought that Van Der Vaart would shoot, he didn't. He created an opportunity for Pinar. Pinar could already shoot from that position, but he still chose to pass the ball and gave the opportunity to Snede, who was in a better position after running from offside. In the end, it was Snede who made the final decision! 1: 0. Ajax seemed to have suddenly taken the lead. Before this, they seemed to be a little tired. I was wondering if it was because they had just played in the Champions League in the middle of the week. I didn't expect them to suddenly exert their strength and destroy Feyenoord's defensive line! "
All the Ajax fans at the scene were cheering. They proudly watched Snede blow a kiss to the stands and watched the Ajax players gather together to hug and celebrate. Ajax's performance not only made the fans happy, but also made them excited!
Comain smiled on the sidelines and sighed in his heart.
Comain had been a coach for many years. He had seen a lot of talented players, but the appearance of Qin Xiong made him surprised and excited. Now, he could only sigh in admiration!
Qin Xiong grew quickly and there was an ability that was almost impossible to cultivate. However, Qin Xiong was improving bit by bit and working hard in that direction. That quality was very important to a team, especially a strong team!
Rhythm control!
The word "metronome" would be used to describe some midfield organizational players.
What was a rhythm? What was the rhythm of the game?
If the game was always carried out at the same speed and rhythm, then there would be no rhythm because there was no change. When fast and slow were combined, there would be a beat and rhythm.
How important was rhythm?
It might not be visible to the naked eye.
For example, Ajax in the past had no concept of rhythm. He played offensive football as fast as the wind and lightning. If he could play fast, he would play fast. This was not good. At least, it was not perfect.
If he could be fast, it meant that he was strong. If a weak team wanted to speed up the rhythm, they did not have the strength as the foundation.
But blindly being fast was not necessarily good. Especially when a player was fast and the other teammates could not keep up, the offense was disjointed.
Why was it difficult for the rhythm controller on the field?
Because there were too many things to consider about the overall situation.
Including the overall analysis of both sides, physical fitness, state, formation, offensive and defensive postures, enthusiasm, and so on.
If there was no concept of rhythm control and both sides played at the same rhythm, there might be a situation where the opponent's offense became smoother and the defense became smoother. In order to break the opponent's good state, it was necessary to change the rhythm. If it could be fast, then use a fast rhythm to break the opponent. If it was impossible to be faster than the opponent, then it must be slow, so slow that the cooldown of the opponent's good state would disappear, or the opponent's attention would be distracted, and so on.
In fact, no one instilled the concept of rhythm control in Qin Xiong. The rhythm control taught by the club was actually the control of the ball.
But he was good at thinking and his brain's ability to collect and process information quickly in a short period of time made him pay attention to the use of this aspect.
Ajax could not compete with the opponent today. This was the truth. If it was a fast-paced game for a long time, the second half would not be able to keep up with the opponent's speed in less than 70 minutes.
Ajax could only use his strength intermittently!
Using this ability in the game, Qin Xiong's strength and tactical importance in the eyes of the manager greatly increased!
This meant that Ajax would become more mature.
Feyenoord lost the ball. After the restart, Ajax did not chase after the victory. Qin Xiong continued to slow down the team's pace of the game. Establishing a foothold to control and wear down the opponent would also quietly change the opponent's mentality.
In Qin Xiong's eyes, the opponent, known as the third powerhouse team, was very different in strength from PSV Eindhoven. Perhaps the gap in the standings was not obvious, but there was a clear gap in the technical and tactical ability on the pitch.
Qin Xiong felt extremely relaxed in defense.
Shinji Ono did not break through him. After the attack shifted to the flank, Feyenoord's attack would fall into a dead end.
The Serbian national footballer, Razović, was tall and strong, more than 1.8 meters tall, but he did not like to charge and break through the enemy lines, and was extremely selfish!
He liked to dribble the ball alone, dribble the ball, dribble the ball, dribble the ball, but when he could not dribble, he fell into a double team and brought the ball into a dead end.
On the other side, Robin van Persie was not much better. He was also somewhat clingy to the ball.
Ajax's defense was extremely relaxed.
They contracted their formation in defense. The players in each position did not need to aggressively snatch the ball. They stood in good positions, formed a joint defense, cut the opponent's offensive formation, and made the opponent's offensive cooperation unable to play. Then, they gradually forced the opponent with the ball under their feet into a desperate situation. Finally, they showed their fierce fangs and destroyed the attack in one fell swoop, or directly took back the ball!
