March 8, Amsterdam Arena.

The second leg of the Champions League round of 16 knockout round.

Ajax host Real Madrid.

After the first leg of the 3-1 home defeat to Ajax, even the president Florentino was blamed for the resignation, Real Madrid has no way out.

They had to take the initiative and score more than three goals to have any hope of winning.

Therefore, Real Madrid showed determination both in the formation and in their starting tactics.

Goalkeeper Casillas, the backline is Roberto Carlos, Escude, Ramos and Salgado.

Woodgate was announced by Real Madrid's team doctor to end the season early after the last round of matches.

This also made many media reporters and fans feel depressed, because Yang Yang visited the Bernabeu twice, and both Real Madrid players were injured, and Raul Bravo, the first to be injured by Yang Yang, also sat on the bench tonight.

With Guti and Graveson at the back in midfield and Raul, Zinedine Zidane and David Beckham up front, Ronaldo continuing to play as a lone striker was what everyone was concerned about before the game.

Many people believe that Ronaldo is in poor form and should be removed from the starting lineup, but Carlo still put the alien in the starting line-up and obviously still has high hopes for him.

Not only Ronaldo, but also Raul, Guti, Zidane, Beckham and Carlos and other Real Madrid superstars have all entered the starting lineup, and Carlo has obviously ranked the strongest lineup he can put in.

Ajax's side also offered a 451 style of play again, but the specific position was adjusted.

The goalkeeper is Stekelenberg, the backline is Maxwell, Vermaelen, Heitinga and McConn, and the midfield is from the left and right to Pinal, Yaya Toure, De Jong, Sneijder and Ryan Babel, with Yang Yang playing as a lone striker.

Unlike in the first round, Ronald Koeman used Ryan Babel in place of Galasek.

His goal is also clear, which is to add another speed player.

It's not hard to see his confidence in the Ajax midfield.

…………

…………

From the moment the whistle blew for the game, the two sides went straight into a fast-paced white-knives battle with bayonets.

Real Madrid came on a menacing and showed their determination to take down their opponents in one fell swoop.

But Ajax, who is playing at home, is also unambiguous, even in the fast-paced attack and defense, it still takes the lead in seizing an opportunity.

In the second minute of the game, after the ball was broken in the midfield, Yang Yang pulled to the gap to receive the ball, turned around and shook off the defender, and sent a straight pass to Ryan Babbel in front of him.

It was a great chance, but Ryan Babel was a bit muddy when he stopped the ball, couldn't play the speed directly, was caught up by Ramos, and after getting close, his body was suppressed and the ball was broken.

Yang Yang clapped vigorously, cheering for Ryan Babbel and signaling him not to be discouraged and to keep going.

As a talented descendant who once performed more beautifully than Yang Yang in the second team, Ryan Babel held back his strength every time he faced Yang Yang, wanting to prove himself, but he never managed to play at a satisfactory level.

He knew exactly what his problem was.

To put it bluntly, he just doesn't work as hard as Yang Yang.

His speed is also very fast, his basic skills are also excellent, and even the foundation of his physical fitness is better than Yang Yang, which is why he has been regarded as a genius since he was a child.

But just like the counterattack just now, anyone who watched the first leg of the game can easily see that if it is replaced by Yang Yang, the ball will be very threatening, at least not like Ryan Babbel, who was cut off as soon as he entered the 30-meter area.

To put it bluntly, the rationality of his football is not as good as Yang Yang's, and his physical confrontation is not as good as Yang Yang's.

I don't know when Ryan Babbel has accepted the fact that he is not as good as Yang Yang.

…………

…………

Real Madrid quickly organised a counter-attack.

After cutting off Ryan Babel, Gravisen quickly crossed to the right and Beckham crossed for Ronaldo to head in from seven yards, only to find the ball in the arms of Stekelenberg.

Like Yang Yang, Ronaldo's header has always been criticized.

Carlos then fired a long-range shot from the left side of the box but couldn't hit the back of the net.

Ajax also played an attack in the fifth minute, Yang Yang pulled the ball to the left rib and passed straight to Sneijder, who was inserted in the back row, but Escud was prepared and poked the ball away first, and Pinar shot wide from distance.

Being on the field, Yang Yang can clearly feel that the players of Real Madrid are indeed fighting, and their state is okay, but it feels like they are always so bad.

At first, Yang Yang hadn't noticed anything, but he just thought it was quite strange.

These stars are quite good in terms of awareness and technique, which makes Real Madrid's passing advantage on the field very obvious, and Ajax can only be beaten passively.

It stands to reason that the skill and awareness are better than the opponents, and the players are willing to fight, so there is no reason why they can't threaten.

When the game reached the tenth minute, Ajax's midfield pass was wrong, Real Madrid played a quick counterattack, Ronaldo received the ball and quickly started, and drove straight with the ball.

What is unbelievable is that De Jong chased all the way back, caught up with Ronaldo at the edge of the penalty area, and finally took the ball to shovel the alien on the periphery of the penalty area, although Real Madrid was given a free kick, but the referee did not take out the card.

Yang Yang walked and watched and observed in the front court, and at the same time was thinking about problems.

He finally understood why Real Madrid was feeling like a breath of air.

The fitness of this team is so poor!

If it is Ronaldo, who is physically excellent, and breaks through with the ball like just now, De Jong will not be able to catch up at all.

Even if Ronaldo's speed has declined after being affected by injury, his personal ability can throw off De Jong one-on-one to score, which is not too simple, but he doesn't.

Instead, after being chased by De Jong, he was tackled with the ball.

Looking at the reaction of the two after getting up from the ground, De Jong was elated, this guy was obviously proud and proud of his shoveling Ronaldo, while Ronaldo looked a little languid, gasping for air.

It's only been ten minutes of play, and although the pace is fast, it's not like this, right?

The only explanation is that he is so tired!

This not only reminded Yang Yang of what Ronald Koeman once said.

"Everyone says that Real Madrid's failure lies in the superstar strategy, which is the imbalance of the team's offense and defense caused by piling up too many superstars in the frontcourt, but in fact, this is just the appearance, and the real core lies in the loss of control of Real Madrid's entire athletic system caused by the superstar strategy."

"There are a lot of teams that are out of balance in attack and defense, but there has never been a team like Real Madrid, and even more, as long as this team is playing normally, who can stop their attack?"

"The real knot of the superstar strategy is that the team gives too many privileges to the superstars, too accommodating to the superstars, so that this group of superstars who have already achieved fame are too comfortable and comfortable, and the most fatal of them is the pre-season training camp preparation, and the team's weekday training intensity."

"It can be seen from many games that Real Madrid's training intensity on weekdays is definitely low, which is not only not conducive to the adjustment of the player's state and the improvement of the technical and tactical level, but also a huge damage to the player's physical fitness."

As a person who has come over, Yang Yang can understand this situation very well.

A high level of training tends to stimulate the player's form, restore and adjust the player's fitness, and can make the player play more energetic in the game, as exemplified by Ajax's veteran Galasek.

Although the training at a low level is very comfortable and easy on weekdays, when it comes to the competition, once you encounter a strong opponent, you often can't get excited, you seem weak, your physical fitness is poor, and your running ability is very poor.

The game is a reflection of the training that the team and the players have been training for a while.

That's why player discipline is so important.

And the reason why Yang Yang was able to maintain a stable state is inseparable from his unremitting hard training and self-disciplined life and rest.

At this moment, looking at the panting Ronaldo, Yang Yang couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart.

He was only twenty-nine years old, how did he become the way he is now?

Of course, Yang Yang didn't feel that his idol had collapsed, but felt sorry.

Ronaldo is already remarkable, he has come back from many heavy injuries and has been able to play at a high level every time, which is enough to impress Yang Yang, who is also a professional player.

But in Yang Yang's opinion, he could have played better and achieved higher achievements.

He just needs to be harder on himself, make himself work harder, and work harder.

In fact, the root cause of Ronaldo's bad relationship with coach Cooper during his time at Inter Milan was that he thought that the Argentine's training was too harsh, and he couldn't accept it at all, and then he was often injured, which led to more and more conflicts between the two, and finally they got into a fight.

Perhaps, this is the nature of Ronaldo and many other Brazilian players.

Real Madrid's superstar strategy has also indirectly fueled this character.

Otherwise, with the age of Real Madrid's superstars, compared to AC Milan's Maldini and others, they are still young people in their thirties, how can they behave so unenergetic?

…………

…………

While Yang Yang was thinking about the problem and learning from it, the game was still going on.

In the 29th minute of the game, the Ajax midfielder broke the ball, and Yaya Toure sent a through ball to Yang Yang's feet.

Yang Yang dribbled the ball into the penalty area from the right rib, and when facing Escude, he suddenly pulled the ball horizontally, intending to hit the goal with his left foot, but Ramos came over at the same time to help defend, so that Yang Yang's idea of shooting was frustrated.

As a last resort, Yang Yang's left foot passed diagonally to the left rib.

Pienaar cut in quickly and coolly slotted a right-footed shot into the opener for Ajax.

1 to 0!
