Chapter 232 Dominate the World
With the current main lineup, it can be said that Tuchel has a lot of cards to play, and the players on the field also include players of various system play types.
The entire offense is spread out and looks very three-dimensional.
In the 13th minute of the first half, Hazard dribbled past three people on the wing and passed the ball to the center forward Morata in the middle. The latter intended to shoot directly without stopping the ball. Fortunately, De Ligt predicted the ball in advance and stepped forward to Morata's side, getting close to his body, confronting, and giving strength.
Under such interference, Morata actually kicked the ball magically.
It was a great scoring opportunity. Hazard wanted to throw the captain's armband when he saw this ball, and Chelsea coach Tuchel on the sidelines jumped wildly with his hands on his head.
Incredible, it was simply inexplicable.
Morata's performance also attracted boos and ridicule from a group of Ajax fans.
They used their own way to interfere with the mentality of the opponent's players as much as possible.
Three minutes later, Chelsea's attack came again. William's exquisite pass fell at Hazard's feet. He touched the ball, stopped and passed it, and got rid of De Jong. He made room and shot hard, which was earth-shattering.
Onana reacted very quickly and did not dare to take it lightly. He lifted the ball over the crossbar with one hand, and Ajax escaped.
But you can't escape the first day. Under the background of the Blues' overwhelming force and the tide of attack, in the 33rd minute of the game, they finally lost the ball. Kovacic's long pass found Hazard who cut into the penalty area. Although De Ligt discovered this loophole in the first time, stuck to it, and confronted his body, the latter did not wait for the ball to land and directly chose a difficult instep shot. The distance was too close, the speed was too fast, and the power was too great.
This ball, there is no solution.
0 to 1.
Ajax, playing at home, fell behind.
After Hazard scored this goal, both the Ajax fans at the scene and the TV cameras were all focused on Ajax's No. 29 player Wang Po.
This season, whenever the team fell behind and got into trouble, the World Footballer of the Year would stand up.
This time facing his new club Chelsea, I don't know if he can still perform the moment of "ruling the world", everyone is waiting to see.
"Ball, give it to me."
Sure enough, after losing the ball, Wang Po stood up, and he was more involved in the control and advancement of the ball.
After getting the ball, Wang Po was not in a hurry to advance or pass the ball, but looked up to observe Chelsea's defense.
At this time, Kante had caught up. Judging from his appearance alone, this Blues iron waist is very ordinary and inconspicuous, and if you ignore his ability because of this, you are wrong.
Fighting, fighting, confrontation, except for the objective factor of height that cannot be changed, Kante is top-notch in other abilities. With him in the midfield, the Blues can rest assured.
Facing this long-famous beast waist, Wang Po did not dare to take it lightly. He tried to dunk the ball and found that the opponent did not change his body center of gravity at all and did not make any defensive moves.
This was a psychological game, a process of fighting wits and courage between the two sides. After continuous fake moves, Wang Po suddenly accelerated.
Kante was also fast, always sticking to Wang Po, getting on his body, and confronting him. This feeling was very uncomfortable.
Wang Po was determined to get rid of him completely and stopped and dunked the ball. Unfortunately, Kante was well prepared for this ball. The distance between his feet was right, and he did not give you a chance to pass the small door at all. He blocked the ball out of the sideline and Ajax got the out-of-bounds ball.
After a successful defense, Kante grinned at Wang Po.
Wang Po also shook hands with him very friendly, and the picture was harmonious.
Of course, the situation on the field between Ajax and Chelsea was not so harmonious.
Obviously, Kante's struggle with Wang Po made the latter unable to play his strength 100% to a certain extent.
"Wow, Wang Po has met his match this time."
The commentator in front of the TV couldn't help but sigh.
When the ball was sent out, Wang Po asked, leaning against Kant, making a fake move to the left, turning right, accelerating to get rid of Kant who was close to him, dribbling along the sideline, looking up, and when Dolberg was about to kick the ball and pass it, he saw from the corner of his eye that Kant had already run to intercept the ball at high speed.
According to Wang Po's estimation, if he kicked again, he would most likely stretch his legs to block the ball and choose to fake a pass. However, Kant seemed to have predicted Wang Po's prediction and kicked the ball out of the sideline again.
"Wow, world-class defense, the top defense, this ball, Kant is simply amazing."
Although he is a fan of the home team of Ajax, the commentator in front of the TV couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw such a defensive action.
Wang Po couldn't help shaking his head when Kant destroyed the ball again.
Seeing the opponent's core being restricted like this, Tuchel on the sidelines calmed down a little. He was really afraid that Wang Po would dominate the world and go crazy. If he really reached that state, he would kill gods and Buddhas, and score all kinds of unreasonable goals. He would have no way to deal with it.
He challenged Kante again, and he kicked the ball with his heel, but he was still predicted by him.
Seeing the ball being intercepted, Wang Po sighed, supported his forehead, and looked quite helpless. He subconsciously looked at his former head coach Tuchel, who also cast his eyes here. The master and apprentice looked at each other in silence, and the atmosphere was a little subtle.
As time went by, the first half was coming to an end. De Jong intercepted Hazard's pass and passed the low ball to Wang Po who got the ball on the wing. Kante came over again immediately.
It was still a duel between two people.
After successfully restricting Wang Po three times in a row, the French midfielder became more and more calm and confident.
This time, Wang Po changed his strategy, stepped on the foot and challenged Kante with one foot. Suddenly, he turned around and accelerated, striding the ball. There was no fancy move. He was completely relying on his talent and physical fitness to compete with the opponent. This time, Wang Po took the lead and drove straight from his own half to the penalty area. In front of him was the fierce Chelsea central defender Rudiger, who had a typical black and hard style. Facing him, at this moment, it was definitely a person passing the ball.
Never give the opponent a chance to foul.
Suddenly, Wang Po pushed the ball and chose to pass the ball.
When Rudiger's attention was on the ball, Wang Po had already bypassed him and caught up with the ball.
Kepa strikes.
Facing this goalkeeper worth 80 million euros, Wang Po chose to shoot low through the crotch.
Goal!
1-1.
When the team was in great difficulty, Wang Po stood up.
After scoring the goal, Wang Po also ran to the corner area, "bending the bow and shooting the eagle" reappeared, facing the fans of the Ajax team, accepting their cheers and worship.
A complete personal show.
