The Era of Emerald

Chapter 194 European Super Cup

() Seeing that the score became two to zero, Van Gaal was no longer as anxious as before, and he did not yell at the sidelines and make various gestures to direct the players on the field, but sat down on the coach's bench , folded his hands on his chest, watched the game on the court with no expression on his face, and at the same time he called up several players from the bench and kicked them out to warm up.

"Hey, Van Gaal is planning to give up the game..." Zhuang Mingge was speechless after noticing what happened on the sidelines. Fiorentina had just scored a second goal and was about to go all out to score a few more goals. One, but Ajax over there raised the white flag at this time-we admit that we can't beat you, and we won't play!

Johansson, who was sitting in another box, also saw the actions of the Ajax head coach. After so many years of football, he certainly knew what this meant, and his face sank in displeasure. The plan was finally passed by him in the name of the chairman despite all the opposition. As a result, the first game after the restructuring showed negative signs of the game. How could UEFA continue to promote this game to the vast fan base? ?

Although the situation in the previous few 10 minutes of the game was one-sided, the two sides attacked and defended, and the scene was still very intense, which could attract the attention of many people.After all, the charm of a football game does not lie in the number of goals scored in a game. If you want to see the goals, you might as well watch a basketball game. The charm of the game lies in the process of the game. The fierce confrontation between the two teams and the cooperation like a plum blossom, as well as the wonderful brilliance and defense, are the most attractive parts of football.

As a result, Ajax has given up the game now, and the intense scenes can no longer be seen, so the attractiveness of this game to the audience will also drop significantly, not to mention that this is the first European Super Cup after the restructuring. "The name of the game has been crucified on this event. Even if UEFA has all-powerful skills, there is no way to change the fans' impression of it.

This is like the UEFA Cup and the so-called Europa League after the restructuring. No matter how much UEFA publicizes and promotes it, the attraction and attention of this event to fans will always be in a half-dead state. For Zhuang Mingge before time travel, if there is no team he likes to participate in this competition, the most he can do is to pay attention to which team won the championship in the end...

Damn Ajax, in order to take care of your emotions, I deliberately assigned you to a relatively weak group. I didn't expect you to be so disrespectful to me. This season is very good for you!Johansson sat in the box, thinking bitterly.

But if you think about it carefully, Van Gaal's move does not seem to be wrong if it is purely from a competitive point of view.

First of all, Ajax, as the winner of the European Champions Cup last season, especially the team that overturned the Milan dynasty. The player training system is still there. As long as these two things are in place, they can continue to produce high-quality stars.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to say that Van Gaal and his Ajax have not been paid attention to at all, because no one knows whether Ajax will appear again this season. A super rookie like Witte.

Everyone knows that if you want to go further in this knockout-based cup, the less conspicuous the better, because the more popular the team, the more thorough other people's research on you, some loopholes and weaknesses It is also easier to be discovered, and the law of "great heat must die" is also based on this point.

So, it's not that Van Gaal doesn't want to win the European Super Cup, but that he doesn't want to work hard in this European Super Cup because he doesn't have many cards. Games that don't have much profit are obviously not included here.

Therefore, in order to go further in the European Champions Cup, which is more profitable this season, Van Gaal will not choose to use all the means of Ajax in this game, a ball whose cards are seen through The team certainly can't go very far.In other words, if Ajax does not perform very well in the UEFA Super Cup or even loses completely, those Champions League champions will inevitably ignore Ajax to some extent. , that's the reason.

After the players on the sidelines completed their warm-up, Van Gaal immediately replaced the older Laudrup, Overmars who repeatedly sprinted on the side for most of the game, and the Finn Leigh with several players. Termanning, this move officially announced that Ajax had given up the competition for the UEFA Super Cup.

After seeing Ajax's substitutions, Ranieri also cooperated very well with Rui Costa and Tomasi, replacing Djorkaeff and Effenberg, and then Davis. Replacing Ronaldo, who scored twice in this game, with the move of removing a striker and replacing it with a defensive midfielder.

At the end of the game, there was no ripple. After the three main attackers left the field, Ajax's weak offense could no longer shake Fiorentina's defense, and Fiorentina seemed to be satisfied with the [-]-[-]. The score was so high that after the game, many commentators believed that Ajax's premature surrender was the culprit for the boring game...

However, both sides of the game didn't care much about it. Fiorentina was very satisfied with winning this championship, and Van Gaal also used an actual battle to know what shortcomings his team still has. For the ambitious Van Gaal and unwilling to be silent For the current Ajax, it is a pretty good deal to be able to find potential problems at the cost of a less important trophy.

When Frisk blew the final whistle, the [-] Fiorentina fans who came to watch the game broke out in huge cheers!They are cheering for another championship trophy for their favorite team!

Although dissatisfied with Ajax's passive behavior in the second half of the game, Johansson, who holds the high position of UEFA president, will not show his dissatisfaction

After Batistuta, the captain, took over the UEFA Super Cup trophy from Johansson, he raised the trophy high amid the cheers of Fiorentina fans!

At this moment, Fiorentina is the king of European football!
