There was little time left in the game. Ajax, who had fallen behind for the second time, completed the equalizer after Qin Xiong's heavy shot to the goal!
2:2
Qin Xiong had a hunch after the shot that the ball would definitely go in!
But his expression did not change at all, and he did not turn around and run to the sidelines to celebrate.
On the contrary, he rushed straight to PSV Eindhoven's goal. Under everyone's shocked gaze, the young China player imperceptibly revealed a leader's temperament!
He went to the goal to pick up the ball!
The game was not over yet.
No coach had ever instilled in Qin Xiong that in a 90-minute game, strive for a draw.
Playing on this green field, there was only one goal to pursue: victory!
Hiddink's face was as calm as water. In just over 20 minutes of the game, his evaluation of Qin Xiong's performance on the field had simply jumped straight up!
He had heard that the club wanted to buy the China player in September. He did not take it to heart, but now it seemed that PSV Eindhoven had obviously missed an important player in terms of the team's competitive strength and the strategic development of the behind-the-scenes group!
Comain rarely lost his composure to celebrate, but at this moment, he let out a roar. After the roar, he waved to the disciples in the field. Come on! Try harder! We can win!
At this moment, Comain himself abandoned the idea of "not losing is enough" before coming to the Philips Arena, or he witnessed Qin Xiong's behavior of picking up the ball and running to the backfield, obviously wanting to seize the time to score again. So far, he was infected and touched by him!
Qin Xiong was truly a great general that was hard to come by!
Ajax's substitutes were also very excited. It seemed that Qin Xiong's goal on the field had restored the dignity of the whole team!
Don't look at how Robben could go in and out of the front field unscrupulously. Our players can do it too!
Moreover, Qin Xiong's way of scoring was exactly the same as Robben's previous way of scoring. They both cut horizontally from the "gap" between the rear defensive line and the midfield line, crossing the defensive zone of many people, completely leaving the opponent at a loss. Finally, after finding an angle, he would strike a fatal blow!
The PSV Eindhoven players were particularly unwilling!
Leading once, it was equalized.
Leading for the second time, it was equalized!
Captain van Bommel, the young Peter Pan Robben, Kežman, and the others, who had scored, showed a ruthless look.
Ajax, can't be killed?
Then we will lead for the third time! Fourth! I'll beat you until you kneel and beg for mercy. I'll crush your pride and crush it!
"Ajax has equalized the score score! Comain's substitution is simply a stroke of genius! Qin Xiong first contributed a direct assist to Ajax after he came on the field. Now, he stepped forward and scored a goal to equalize the score! 2: 2. This China player must have left a very deep impression on me, the countless fans watching the game live on TV! Remember his name, Qin Xiong! "
Qin Xiong held the ball in his arms inside the goal. As he jogged to the backfield, he passed by Snede. Snede reached out to him. Qin Xiong did not pat him lightly this time. Instead, he used a lot of force, just like how Snede used to slap his palm.
When the intense atmosphere of the game affected you, this kind of emotion would come out from the inside out.
Qin Xiong wanted to win!
Of course, he wanted to win!
This was more challenging than any game he had played before!
After pressing the ball at the kickoff point in the center circle, Qin Xiong ran to his position. Dirong came forward and high-fived him to celebrate. Qin Xiong whispered a few words, and Dirong nodded blankly in response.
On the way back, Qin Xiong would carefully observe the changes in the expressions of the PSV Eindhoven players.
Sometimes, a football game was a very emotional sport, and unless the person was particularly shrewd, at least half of the emotions would be written on his face.
Obviously, Qin Xiong could see that PSV Eindhoven was not reconciled. How could the defending champion be willing to only get a draw on their home ground?
After the restart of the game, PSV Eindhoven immediately sped up the pace and continued to play their very threatening flying tactics on both wings.
Romedar and Robben were sprinting along the flank. However, Romedar's pass wasn't much of a threat. Robben, on the other hand, was trying to replicate the trajectory of the previous goal. It wasn't very successful!
Dirong's position was very far back, trying his best to narrow the "gap" between the midfield line and the rear defensive line, and consciously guarding against Robben's cut inside. This made it easy for Robben to hit a metal plate when he switched from the flank to the middle.
Qin Xiong's position was also retreated to avoid the team from conceding the ball again. After all, there was not much time left.
He focused on instigating the team's counterattack or fast attack!
However, after solving the defense, a new problem appeared!
Snede could not play the effect of acceleration on the flank during the counterattack!
The same was true for Sikora on the other flank!
Although Ajax and PSV Eindhoven both played the Champions League in the middle of the week, their opponents were different. Coupled with the fact that Ajax was a guest, Ajax's disadvantage was reflected in the final moments of the game.
In the 87th minute, Qin Xiong passed the ball to Snede to give him a head start, but Snede obviously could not rush with speed and could only watch the football roll out of the sideline.
In the 88th minute, Qin Xiong intercepted the ball at Robben's feet and made another long pass. The football bypassed Li Rongbiao's head. According to Sikora's usual sprint speed, it was no problem to beat the Korean. However, Sikora could not speed up at the crucial moment of acceleration and was squeezed out of the sideline by Li Rongbiao's body when he turned around …
"We can understand Qin Xiong's eagerness to win. He saw a gap, so he passed the ball to find his teammates. However, he looks a little impatient. He should be more patient. He has already made two long mistakes. Although it looks like it's just a little bit away and the chances are good, he should be more steady."
If Comain could hear the commentator's words, he would shake his head.
It was not Qin Xiong's problem. Although it would be counted as Qin Xiong's mistake in the game statistics, it was obvious that it should be played like this!
PSV Eindhoven's home fans were slightly impatient in the stands.
They were in a good situation when the game was about to end, but it turned out like this. They were not reconciled, not reconciled, not reconciled!
They were gnashing their teeth in dissatisfaction!
They were hysterically dissatisfied!
They were frantically cheering for the team, stimulating their players, spurring them to knock down Ajax, step on Ajax's corpse in one fell swoop, and climb to the top of the league table!
Under the stimulation of such an atmosphere, PSV Eindhoven's frenzied attack in the last moment became stronger and stronger, and their momentum became more and more fierce. They could not wait for everyone to swarm up and crush Ajax.
Qin Xiong took advantage of a corner kick to defend and whispered to Snede, "You can't run anymore. Come back to defend."
Snede did not deny it. He also understood Qin Xiong's straightforwardness.
In fact, Comain also saw this point. There was only one reason why he did not make a substitution: If he made a substitution, it would be a waste of time! The new player on the field was not in the same tune as the team's rhythm. It would take more time to play with power.
Therefore, Comain did not make a substitution.
What he hoped was that Snede or Xikora could slightly adjust the distribution of physical strength and be able to carry out one more time at the last critical moment, even if it was just one time to accelerate the fatal attack.
However, Qin Xiong was not willing to wait and watch. He was not willing to bet on Snede and Xikora.
He said the same thing to Xikora.
This small winger was more approachable. Qin Xiong had completed a pass and a shot in the game. Now at such a critical moment, he trusted Qin Xiong's judgment very much. Perhaps he was not as comprehensive as Snede, so he also asked Qin Xiong more questions.
Come back to defend?
Defense sounded simple, but what was the specific area and what was the main task?
Rashly participating in the defense may not be of any help to the team. On the contrary, it would be destructive.
Qin Xiong briefly told the other party's defensive duties.
To put it bluntly, it was to put three defensive midfielders in front of the defensive line.
De Rong was in the middle, Snede was on the left, and Xikora was on the right.
De Rong was the real interceptor, while Snede and Xikora were the moving human wall during the defense. They could also be called the shit-stirrers, disrupting the rhythm of Romedar or Robben when they cut inside.
Why did he do this?
Qin Xiong's idea was very simple.
Snede and Xikora could not run.
But, I can run!
Qin Xiong was doing this to liberate himself!
