Chapter 116 Counterattack, Counterattack,
Ajax was experienced and scored in stoppage time in the first half. He took the initiative of the game at the beginning of the second half.
Avillaze, who scored, was obviously active after scoring, and frequently went to the right side to seek cooperation with Babangida. The two of them, one is amazingly fast, and the other is excellent in technology and good at cooperation. Suleiman, who had been strong in attack and weak in defense, was so embarrassed that he had to ask the middle for help frequently.
Just one minute after the start of the second half of the game, Babangida and Avilaze cut into the penalty area and completed a return from the bottom line. Avilaze broke into the ribs and came up to defend him. Martens was slipped under Avilaze's feet and almost fell down!
With this stagger, Avilaze found a chance to shoot, but Enke behind Avilaze secretly pushed him. Although he was not strong, it made Avilaze lose his head. As a result, he shot the ball into the back stands.
The Alkmal people took a deep breath. Jiang Mu, who had not yet sat on the coach's seat, was so shocked that he stood up again.
Avilaze raised his hand angrily and complained to the referee, saying that Enko pushed him from behind, but the referee Temingke ignored him.
Alkmaar was given a preventive shot, and their nerves immediately tightened. They strengthened their eye-and-watching defense near the penalty area, preferring to foul than easily giving their opponents the opportunity to pass and cooperate.
Three minutes later, Alkmaar goalkeeper Silva passed the ball to defender Martens, who passed the ball to Artidore under the rush of Ajax striker Avilaze, allowing Altidore to organize the attack.
The reckless and grumpy midfielder Oliseh came up to steal. Artidore did not choose to break through. He made a fake move, which seemed to pass Olyseh from one side. When Olyseh moved his center of gravity, Artidore passed the football with his heel to Van Bomel on the back of the side.
As soon as Van Bommel received the ball, the Finnish ice knife Litmanin was in front of him, and Avilaze hit him in the back.
Van Bomer saw that Litmanning in front of him was fierce and felt that it was easy to pass, so he smashed the ball and dodged Lit Manning, but Avilaze behind him arrived. He poked the ball away from behind Van Bomer's feet.
"Anti-rob! Beautiful! Avilaze's steal created a chance for Ajax to fight back... The ball reached Litmaning's feet... The counterattack began.
After seeing Avillaze break the ball and pass it to Littmanning, Ajax's players were relieved and bold to press on it, and even the two sides rushed up. They planned to cooperate with the team's offensive and form a second wave of offensive on the periphery.
When Van Bommel saw that the ball was lost, he turned around almost instinctively and quickly. I pasted it to Avilaze. I want to get the ball back.
Avillaze knew that the Dutchman was difficult to deal with, so he immediately handed the ball over to Litmanning.
Van Bomel is very responsible. If he makes a mistake, he wants to grab the ball back and make up for it. The ball passed to Littmanning's feet, and he chased after him and continued to grab it.
Lit Manning continues to pass the ball. He knows that if he passes the ball several times against a player like Van Bommel, he should give up.
The ball reached the foot of Babangida. Babangida's technique was a little rougher, and it took a longer time to stop the ball. As soon as his ball stopped, he was hit by Suleiman from the side and lost its balance. The pace under his feet became chaotic, and the football was hit out of his control. Van Bommel came up in time to steal the football, and the ball returned to Alkmaar's feet.
Before the ball was robbed by Van Bomel, Ajax's players had begun to plug in, leaving a large empty area behind. Van Bomer grabbed the ball, and these players immediately retreated quickly to prevent Alkmaar from fighting back. Babangida and other front-court players counterattacked Van Bomel on the spot.
Van Bomel also had a certain organizational ability, but was covered up by her fierce snatch. He took a look at the opponent's back defense and suddenly pushed a straight pass in the middle!
No one expected this, but Kuit, who was inserted diagonally from the side to the middle, received the ball, forming a single opportunity.
Alkmaar's fans burst into excited cheers. This is an opportunity! An idea comes to everyone's mind at the same time: if we lead by 3:1, we will win.
Van der Sar made a quick attack. Kuyt didn't have time to aim at the goalkeeper's position. Raise your feet and shoot!
The shooter's scorer could have made Kuyt choose the shooting angle, which was very tricky, hoping to bypass Van der Sar. But when the tall Dutchman fell down, his toes still rubbed against the football. The ball jumped and rolled out of the bottom line by wiping the post.
"...the ball didn't score! This is Alkmaar's best opportunity so far in the second half, even better than the opportunity of its opponent Avilaze! Kuyt didn't catch it. It's a pity... Van der Sar saved the team."
Kuyt's shot just now only got a corner kick, wasting Van Bommel's wonderful pass. Such an opportunity is almost impossible to have a second time in this game, because opponents at the level of Ajax are very good at self-adjustment.
But Van Bommel did not complain about Kuyt. Instead, he came forward and patted the little brother on the shoulder, grabbed his short hair, and said nothing. I ran to the penalty area to grab the point.
Artidore opened the corner kick. Ajax's goalkeeper Van der Sar was not sure about the height of the two central defenders. He was separated by two people. He hit the corner kick from the enemy.
Clonekamp beautifully removed the ball outside the penalty area and raised his foot with a long shot. Unfortunately, the ball was a little outrageous and flew away several meters away from the goalpost, which made Ajax fans laugh.
Five minutes later, Alkmaar got a chance to counterattack. They pressed on them and tried to expand the score again, but this time Ajax's defense was very successful, breaking Altedore's pass, and then Alkmaar's counterattack while Alkma's players had not returned.
Winger Babangida has started!
Litmanning immediately pushed a direct pass from the seam, accurately sending the football to the Nigerian's feet.
"Ajax's counterattack! It's very fast!"
Alkmaar's players ran back desperately, and they could never let their opponents pull back another goal.
"Alkmaar's single-knife ball just now boosted the morale of the players. Almost everyone rushed up with a corner kick. Maybe they feel that they are very close to the goal... But now, Alkmaar's big move has given the Ajax a chance to attack.
"Now, in addition to goalkeeper Silva, Alkmar's players in the second half are full-back Suleiman; central defender Martens and Morris; while Ajax's players are Avilazer, Laudrup and Babangida, three-to-three! Ajax's great opportunity... can't be missed!"
Commentator Evans shouted excitedly. It was a good opportunity for Ajax. His voice was much louder than Alkmaar's.
When Suleiman saw that Babangida was about to fight him with speed, he risked the red card and shoveled from one side to the other side. Babangida, who carried the ball, reacted very quickly. He accelerated the ball forward, and then jumped up to avoid Suleiman's shovel and continued!
Everyone in the stands, whether they are Ajax fans or Alkmaar fans, stood up from their seats, which was a chance to score goals.
"Babangida broke through Suleiman!"
"It's down."
"There is no cross, damn it, he sent it back, and there is chaos inside and outside our restricted area..."
The ball passed to Avilazer's feet, Alkmaar central defender Morris pushed up, Avilaze gently passed, and the ball came to Littmanning.
Alkmaar just counterattacked. After being counterattacked by his opponent, the defense of the middle was pulled apart. This time, the defense of the middle was very empty.
Lit Manning was very satisfied to see this scene. He was the most depressed person in this game, and Ajax's midfield was completely limited by Alkmaar's playing method. I can't support him effectively. It's not easy to get the ball. There are opponents' players, and it is difficult to break through. Now it's all right. If the ball is passed, you can shoot.
Lit Manning wanted to pull out his foot and shoot. A dark shadow flew over and might block his shooting line. Lit Manning pulled the ball, and the ball magically went to his other side. Just now, the black shadow was empty.
Litmanning was very happy and felt that his depression was about to dissipate. There was only one goalkeeper between himself and the goal, and he could shoot at any time.
But when Litmanning raised his foot to shoot, another man in black rushed over. Litmanning passed him with a fake move and plucked the ball again, and then shot without hesitation.
But when the foot was about to touch the ball, the ball suddenly disappeared.
What the hell! Who is it?
Litmanning turned his head and saw that Gattuso didn't know where it came from? He just went to assist! He can't be behind me so soon!
"Gatuso! Beautiful!"
"Good defense, Italian."
Alkmaar fans at the scene shouted that Gattuso's relief just now was very successful, almost the same as a goal, because Lit Manning's shooting was basically equal to a goal in the area just now.
Gattuso prevented the long-known superstar Litmanin, which is a great encouragement for both the team and Gattuso.
Football, like fighting, is a morale competition. Gattuso successfully grabbed the ball from Litmaning's feet this time. It greatly improves the morale of Alkmaar players.
The pace of the game changed very fast. Ajax's counterattack had not been completed, and then Alkmaar's counterattack came again.
It's still the same set. The ball passed from the backcourt to Drogba's head. Drogba headed the ball, and Artidore plugged in and prepared to make a direct pass.
Drogba had no eye on him this time. The player who was watching him was still running towards the penalty area. Drogba easily got the ball, but he did not pass the ball directly, but turned around and rushed forward.
On the two wings of Drogba, Kuit, Kloncamp, and Suleiman are all running forward, and behind Drogba is the bank. At this time, the Ajax were scared. They felt the possibility of losing the ball. They all opened their eyes wide and held their breath to watch Drogba run to the penalty area like a tank.
