Over the weekend, Ajax challenged Groningen away.
After a large rotation, Ajax once again showed his fatigue, and he could not beat the audience for a long time.
But even so, Ajax is still in the 78th minute, with Halland's goal, one-on-nine away win over Groningen, and won a 30-game winning streak this season.
With only three rounds left in the Netherlands, Ajax has won the championship in advance, the biggest suspense in everyone's mind is no longer other, but whether Ajax can win the Netherlands with a victory record champion?
If it is true, then Yang Yang will be loaded into the Dutch Armor, and even the history of European football.
...
The Dutch League has just finished, and the Dutch Football Association also discussed the results.
After Ajax eliminated Juventus and advanced to the UEFA Champions League semi-finals, led by the Dutch Football Association, representatives of the eighteen teams of the Dutch League came to the headquarters of the Football Association in Amsterdam to discuss the adjustment of the final two rounds of the league schedule.
The Dutch Football Association has initially prepared two sets of plans, one is to advance the 33rd round of the league to the 26th.
The advantage of this plan is that the movement is small. Only Ajax's opponent Graf Sharp agrees, and other Dutch teams do not object to it, they can implement it, but it is not very useful for Ajax.
The 32nd round of the Dutch League is held on the 23rd of Tuesday, that is to say, if the 33rd round is advanced to the 26th of Friday, then Ajax must play two games in four days The game, followed by a visit to the Camp Nou on May 1 next Wednesday, with only four days to rest.
Compressing the schedule ahead, the team's consumption has increased. Although it has got four days of rest time, it has little significance.
The second plan was proposed by the Ajax technical team after fully considering the schedule of the semi-finals before the guests and the main players, as well as the actual situation of the club, and it was put forward at the club representative meeting of the Football Association, that is, the last two rounds of the league were extended. Rear.
Not only is Ajax postponed, all matches in the Dutch League are postponed because of the fairness of the league rankings, the last two rounds of all European league games are played simultaneously.
Ajax proposed that the league be postponed until the 12th and 15th of mid-May, which would just stagger the two rounds of the Champions League semi-finals on May 1 and May 7.
At noon on May 5, it was the final of the Dutch Cup. Ajax was to play a final with William II.
Yang Yang has enough confidence in this game, he firmly believes that the team can win, so he did not propose a rescheduling.
Besides, William II could not agree because it was too obvious for them.
Ajax's entry into the UEFA Champions League semi-finals is a huge benefit for the entire Dutch League. All teams will follow suit. They naturally hope that Ajax will enter the finals and even win the championship.
Coupled with the management of Ajax headed by Van der Sar, at the representative meeting, they strongly persuaded the representatives of the other 17 teams. The chairman of the Dutch Football Association Michael Van Prager also came forward to support Ajax. In the end, they agreed to the second set of plans, and the final two rounds of the league were postponed.
After the announcement of the plan, Ajax also thanked the Dutch Football Association, the Dutch League and the Dutch community for their attention and support to the team, saying that the team will go all out to strive for a breakthrough in the Champions League.
Although everyone does not think that Ajax can compete with Barcelona.
...
After the announcement of the plan, Ajax will play a seven-day holiday after playing the home game against Witness on the 23rd. It will not be until the Labor Day on May 1st that they need to face Barcelona.
But as early as the 32nd round of the Dutch League, before the plan was announced, Yang Yang and the coaching staff adjusted the team's training plan for the first time. The coaching team headed by Winston Bogard and Pintus immediately addressed all The main players conduct physical fitness adjustment and reserve training, and strive to make the team at the Nou Camp stadium, the body and spirit have reached the best state.
After all, the next three games are related to the success or failure of Ajax this season.
Yang Yang is also not idle, he and Xavi Alonso began to study the skills and tactics of Barcelona.
As Yang Yang has been saying before, Ajax is not afraid of a ball control team like Barcelona, but is a little afraid of the excellent defensive ability of Inter Milan and Juventus, or Tottenham. A strong team.
Playing Barcelona, Ajax has no other choice at all, and can only continue to insist on his high position to force oppression.
The key is how to suppress Barcelona and how to retreat at Camp Nou?
This is the problem that Yang Yang will solve next week.
…………
…………
On April 23rd, the 32nd round of the Dutch League.
Ajax played at home and defeated Waiters four to two.
The team is not playing well, many of the main players are adjusting, and the state is not very good.
Jovic scored twice and also had an assist. Derricht scored again with a corner kick and Edego also scored a goal.
After playing this game, Ajax began closed training.
The team began to actively prepare for the Camp Nou.
...
While Ajax was preparing for the game, Barcelona continued their one-week double match.
On April 23rd, in the 34th round of La Liga, Barcelona beat Alavis 2-0 away.
On April 27, in the thirty-fifth round of La Liga, Barcelona beat Levante one-on-one at home.
In both games, Barcelona did n’t do their best, obviously they were keeping their energy in preparing for the Champions League game, but because the thickness of the first team lineup is not excellent, and there is still some pressure in the league, so Barcelona did not carry out a large Rotation.
Valverde obviously still wanted to grab both hands.
The league leads by nine points, but Atlético Madrid struggles hard. There are still three rounds in the league. Barcelona still feel the pressure and dare not take risks easily, and the Champions League opponent Ajax will have a big score in terms of overall strength and experience of the competition. Behind Barcelona.
You know, in the past fifteen years, no dark horse team has broken through the semifinals.
The last non-Big Four league team to break into the Champions League final was Ajax and Porto in the 2003-04 season.
Since then, the best result of the non-four major league teams in the Champions League is the semi-finals!
Everyone knows that, at the level of the semifinals, it is no longer just a competition of the team's strength, but also a confrontation of the club's overall strength, and almost all sides of the contest.
No matter what aspect Barcelona looked at, it didn't take Ajax into his eyes.
For teams from the Netherlands, reaching the semi-finals is already a huge victory.
Among the odds offered by many European gaming companies, Ajax is also the lowest odds among the semi-finals, Barcelona is far ahead, the number one favorite to win the championship, followed by Liverpool and Manchester City.
In all media investigations, the most wanted to see the Champions League final match is Barcelona and Manchester City, because Guardiola.
The fans most wanted to see the match between Yang Yang and Messi, but unfortunately, when the quarterfinals were drawn, they were drawn to the same half, so that they met early in the semi-finals.
...
The war is imminent, and various preparations are in full swing.
The more critical moments are, the more vividly Yang Yang's team skills are reflected.
Needless to say, Yang Yang and Harvey Alonso are all veterans who have played in the Champions League for many years. Pintus has experienced many key decisive battles with Real Madrid. Winston Bogard and Frans Hawke also They are all experienced champion coaches, and they all know what to do and what not to do.
Van Gaal is also an experienced head coach. He knows how to create the best and most relaxed coaching environment for the team before the big game.
But what most surprised Yang Yang was Eric Tenhag.
The head coach of Utrecht is familiar with Guardiola's skills and tactics, and also knows Barcelona's football. Therefore, during the league lockout phase, he drove to Detok Most to discuss with Yang Yang and others The upcoming Champions League semi-finals, and gave a lot of his own suggestions, Yang Yang discretion.
Yang Yang, who already appreciated Tenghag quite well, is even more in agreement with him.
Among the many pre-match preparations, Yang Yang attaches the most importance to it, in addition to targeted tactics, it belongs to the player's psychology.
Almost at the end of each day of training, Yang Yang will take the time to meet the players. He needs to understand the psychological conditions of each player under his control before the game, especially before they face Barcelona.
Some players have excellent psychological qualities, and the stronger the stronger, but some players tend to be nervous. Other players blindly exaggerate the strength of their opponents because they are unfamiliar. They add a lot of psychological burden to themselves for no reason. To the point, I think that the team will definitely get rid of Barcelona.
Excessive pessimism, excessive optimism, or nervous anxiety, these are not normal phenomena, and Yang Yang needs to resolve them.
His experience is very rich. He has played in Real Madrid for nine years. He has won the honor of world football, and he has extraordinary influence and personal prestige in the team, so he can answer every question of the player.
When he faced Barcelona, he almost never lost, so he had the confidence to tell his players how to beat their opponents at the Camp Nou and how to contain Barcelona.
Among them, he said the most, one sentence repeatedly emphasized is to be brave and confident!
"In the face of a team like Barcelona, any cowardice and cowardice are chronic suicides!"
"Only if you bravely stand up, and only strengthen your conviction, can you beat your opponent at Camp Nou!"
"You have to believe that I have never lost to Barcelona. It used to be the same before, and it will be the same next. I will be able to lead everyone and head out of Camp Nou!"
This was Yang Yang's mobilization of players in the last tactical meeting before the game.
He wants to instill his confidence in Ajax's players, he wants to win everyone's trust.
Only in this way can Ajax retreat at the Camp Nou!
