Mourinho sat on the coaching bench, drinking water leisurely.

Up to this point in the game, everything is within the scope of their tactics, and the effect and situation they wanted to achieve have been achieved.

It can be said that so far, Ajax has failed to pose the slightest threat to Arsenal.

Even the Dutch commentator felt extremely worried when he saw the situation on the field.

"When we win against Real Madrid, I think Ajax can be a miracle team!"

"But when they faced Arsenal, we felt so passive."

"In front of Real Madrid, we played like a group of wolves. We took the initiative to attack, we had the advantage, and we moved forward boldly!"

"But when the opponent is Arsenal, everything changes."

In the Sky Sports live broadcast room, Andy Gray said with a grin; "Ajax is an outstanding young team, but they still need to be sharpened. Cubs are cubs after all. They have the ambition to create legends, but their Strength cannot cross this barrier called Arsenal!”

The Ajax players were playing more and more uncomfortable.

Young players such as De Jong and De Ligt also started to become impatient.

In fact, in order to advance, they ignored tactics and systems and just moved forward.

You want to create an offensive environment while staying dangerously away from your own defensive area.

But to be honest, this pushing method regardless of the system relies on the word 'luck'.

Under Arsenal's defensive system, they are simply too good at defending against such lucky passes.

"mine!"

Bellerin rushed to the landing point and gently ferry the ball to Kanter's feet.

The whole process was relaxed and enjoyable.

After he pushed the ball out, Tadi was late.

At this time, Tadic was covered in sweat, panting like an ox, and looked extremely embarrassed.

Not only Tadic, but also the state of Ajax as a whole.

The ball was passed to Lucai's feet again. Lucai did not rush to pass the ball, but dribbled forward for a moment, looking for an opportunity to pass the ball.

Van der Beek naturally would not let Lucky dribble so easily.

But his influence on Lucky is really limited.

Although he is a member of the currently sought-after Ajax young guard bureau, Van de Beek has limited space to play against one of the top midfielders in football.

Lucky followed Van der Beek, and after observing his teammates' movements, he gave the ball to Wilshere in front.

After passing the ball, Lucky did not retreat or stay in place, but started quickly.

"Pass it back!"

Lucky ran into the space on the left, and Wilshere also turned around and passed the ball to Lucky.

Lucky once again transferred the ball laterally to the wing.

Aubameyang continued to advance with the ball, and Arsenal suddenly accelerated the pace.

This was a bit unexpected for Ajax.

Ajax is good at fast-paced games, but they are not good at playing with rhythm and cannot freely switch between fast and slow rhythms.

Either fast paced or slow paced.

For this reason, Ajax is stretched thin in front of a rhythm master like Arsenal.

Arsenal's offense quickly advanced into the penalty area.

Under the rapid attack speed, Ajax's midfield line almost didn't react.

Lucky and Wilshere passed each other in one pass.

Arsenal faced the opponent's defence.

"Arsenal is at it again!

Ajax is in danger!

"

Throughout the Cruyff Arena, Ajax fans subconsciously clenched their fists.

Each of their expressions became tense.

Afraid of Arsenal replicating the previous goal again.

Especially Lucky!

“Watch Kai!

"

De Ligt shouted loudly.

Although Lucky is outside the penalty area, his long shot can still threaten Ajax's goal.

"Inside! Inside! Don't let him break in!"

Feltman quickly went to block it, but Aubameyang advanced too fast, and the two quickly approached.

When the two were about to meet, Aubameyang made a lateral smash, turned sideways, kicked the ground with his feet, and started again at 90 degrees.

"So fast!"

Feltman was startled.

He immediately got close to Aubameyang, trying to squeeze him out.

But based on Aubameyang's speed, he was unable to keep up with the opponent.

After squeezing and squeezing, he was thrown away by Aubameyang and fell heavily.

"Follow up and protect!"

When he fell, Feltman did not forget to remind his teammates.

But when he looked up, the ball was already in the air in the middle.

Giroud and De Ligt jumped to compete for the top.

"Damn it!

"

Feltman was filled with nervousness.

The moment he saw Giroud about to head the ball, De Ligt suddenly leaned forward and took the lead to head the ball out.

The two of them collided heavily in the air, causing them to fall over.

Ah~~~~!

Giroud fell to the ground and cried.

De Ligt landed firmly.

Everyone hurriedly gathered around.

Lucky leaned over and asked, "Are you hurt?"

Jirou quietly shook his palm, and Lucai breathed a sigh of relief.

But when he wanted to put pressure on the referee, he heard Ajax goalkeeper Onana shouting fiercely: "Team doctor! Team doctor!"

Lucky was stunned and turned to look over.

Dericht's brow bone was broken, and bright red blood flowed out, sliding down his eye sockets and cheeks.

At this moment, everyone fell silent.

Even Giroud, who was lying on the ground and wailing before, got up angrily.

The team doctor rushed over with a first aid kit. He first checked De Ligt's brow bone.

After some inspections, the team doctor breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's a small hole, it's not a big problem!"

This kind of injury is common in football. Many defenders and forwards often have this problem in order to compete for the top position.

The team doctor was also quick with his hands and feet, wiping away the blood and disinfecting it. Then he took out the hemostatic ointment from the first aid kit, applied it to the wound, and finished the job.

Finally, he handed over a new jersey, then patted De Ligt on the shoulder and said: "Come on, kid!"

Dericht also nodded heavily.

He will not withdraw from the game because of this minor injury.

The entire process took almost no time.

The referee did not give any foul penalty. The two were fighting for the top and colliding reasonably.

But Giroud was still a little embarrassed inside.

Look at these children, their faces are disfigured, they are bleeding, and they don’t say a word.

He fell to the ground and wailed, always feeling ashamed.

At this time, Lucky also walked up to De Ligt and asked: "Try to hit the ball with the left side of your forehead to avoid the wound. If the wound breaks open again, it will be difficult to stop the bleeding again!"

This is also based on Lucky’s experience.

Faced with Lucky's expression of goodwill, Dericht was stunned for a moment and then nodded.

The two patted each other on the shoulders before returning to their respective halves.

Arsenal's throw-in.

Since the last attack failed and all Ajax players had retreated, Arsenal was no longer obsessed with continuing to attack. Instead, they threw the ball back and reorganized.

Although Ajax is a young team, they still played with full blood.

Whether it was De Ligt risking injury to fight for the top, or others desperately pressing.

Even based on De Ligt's distance, the efforts of others have gone up a level.

On the other hand, Arsenal continued to play steadily.

The first half had passed 30 minutes before I knew it.

During this period, Ajax had limited offensive opportunities. Under Arsenal's midfield control, they were greatly challenged.

Especially for De Jong.

This game was too much of a test for him, and he thought he would be able to perform well in the Champions League.

But in the direct conversation with Lucai, he seemed extremely passive.

Lucky didn't look down on the other party just because he trusted him. He would press him to death as long as he couldn't be crushed.

Lucky knows how to make a midfielder as well.

The midfield is the position where the ball is most touched in the entire game, and it is also the most critical link.

But once this position is put under great pressure, resulting in abnormal performance or even technical deformation, the entire team will be greatly affected.

This is the case for Ajax at this time.

In the past, they relied on De Jong's excellent passing to launch wonderful attacks again and again.

But in this game, after De Jong lost his voice, the entire Ajax offense was in a state of silence.
