079 Russia’s away game

 September 24, the 6th round of the Eredivisie.

Ajax vs Vitesse.

Three days after this game, Ajax will go away to challenge the Russian Super League giant CSKA Moscow in the Champions League group stage, so Ten Hag is very cautious in arranging rotations in this league.

Lin Kedi also sat on the bench.

And Waiters wanted to seize the opportunity and give Ajax a blow.

In fact, Waiters almost did it.

At the beginning of the game, they turned around and launched a fierce attack, which overwhelmed the rotating lineup of Ajax and did not react for a while.

Subsequently, Vitesse's center Matav beat De Ligt and scored a header.

Although Ajax played a fast break at the beginning of the second half, left winger Neres scored and equalized the score, 1 to 1.

Ten Hahe could accept the draw score, so he gave up the idea of ​​replacing a few main players to give it a try.

But everything happened too fast and without warning.

At the 88th minute of the game, Matav scored twice, helping Vitesse regain the lead 2-1.

It was very embarrassing at this time.

If Ten Hahe replaces Lin Kedi and other main players, there will only be a few minutes left, and they may not be able to equalize.

In the end, Ten Hahe firmly decided not to change the main players.

As a result, the game was 1-2, and Ajax suffered its second defeat of the season at home.

Ten Hag was very angry after the game, but he couldn't express his anger at the players. After all, the strength of the rotation players was really limited, and he only played a few main players in this game.

Three days later, the second round of the Champions League group stage.

The Ajax team heads to Moscow.

This day is September 28th. The highest temperature that day was 15 degrees and the lowest temperature was only 6 degrees.

During the game that day, the temperature was only 7 degrees, which was indeed very cold.

CSKA Moscow has the home field advantage, and each of their players is very adaptable to this somewhat cold climate.

The average temperature in September in the Netherlands is 21 degrees, which is a warm climate, so some Ajax players began to feel uncomfortable as soon as they arrived in Moscow.

But a game is a game.

Although CSKA Moscow is a wealthy team in the Russian Super League, its state this season is indeed average, with 2 draws and 2 losses in the last 4 games.

So this is a good opportunity for Ajax.

In this game, CSKA Moscow played a 352 formation, while Ajax played a 4231.

For CSKA Moscow, the goalkeeper position is Russia's national goalkeeper Akinfeev, the three central defenders in the defense are Ignashevich, Berezutsky and Vasin, and the two wing-backs are Shchnikov and

Mario Fernandez.

The three midfielders are Golovin, Weinblum and Dzagoev.

The two forwards are Vitinho and Charov.

Only 2 of the 11 are not Russians.

As for Ajax, only 4 of them are Dutch.

The CSKA Arena, the home ground of CSKA Moscow, can accommodate 30,000 people and is also a famous top stadium in Europe.

When Lin Kedi appeared on the stage, he really felt the crazy side of the Russians.

From the moment the Ajax players came on the field, huge boos resounded throughout the stadium.

Lin Kedi only felt his ears buzzing, which was very annoying.

After the game started, CSKA Moscow on the court was not as ruthless as their fans. It was not as tough as the image of Russia given people, and their playing style felt very soft.

In this way, Ajax will be able to play better.

At the 11th minute of the first half, Link, who was playing center in this game, received a long pass from De Jong, and then cut inside to hit the gap where the CSKA wing-back did not come back.

The three central defenders seem to have increased the defensive strength, but if the wing backs do not return, the gap between the three central defenders will become very large.

Lin Kedi did not use any extraordinary tactics, and directly accelerated from the right center back to the front line of the penalty area.

When Akinfeev saw this, he was about to attack, but Lin Kedi decisively lobbed the ball.

Akinfeev immediately stopped midway through his attack and wanted to turn back, but it was too late. When he fell to the ground, he saw the ball fall into the net.

"Lin Ke's enemy shot——"

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!"

"The ball is in!"

"The Chinese's first goal in the Champions League! This is also the youngest goal scorer in the Champions League. Lin Ke's first goal in the Champions League is finally here. This is a historic moment!"

"Ajax led 1-0, Lin Kedi suddenly pulled away and caught the opponent off guard!"

In the following time, CSKA Moscow was unable to launch any offensive.

Because Ajax quickly intercepted the ball again, this time, Lin Kedi made strides forward in the middle.

"The way Lin Kedi broke through in the middle reminded me of Kaka. This breakthrough was very beautiful, but it was a pity that Dolberg failed to grasp the through ball."

In the second half, the side changed sides and the battle resumed. Lin Kedi stirred up CSKA Moscow's back line with his deft running in the middle.

In the second half, CSKA Moscow's defenders remembered that they were Russians, so they had to be more aggressive.

It was only when I tackled and grabbed that I became fierce.

Lin Kedi also started to get fouled repeatedly, but Lin Kedi was very quick with his feet, and he also protected himself in advance when he fell to the ground after being fouled, so it was nothing serious.

However, Ten Hahe looked a little scary on the sidelines. With the idea of ​​​​protecting Lin Kedi, he replaced Lin Kedi at the 71st minute.

When Lin Kedi came off the field, the visiting fans and the Ajax fans applauded their prince.

After the game ended, Lin Kedi walked onto the court again. He won the best player in this game.

This is also the first time he won the best player in the Champions League.

"Today is your first Champions League goal. You have become the youngest goalscorer in the history of the Champions League. How do you feel?"

Lin Kedi looked at the reporters from The Times in front of him and thought that Chinese and foreign reporters were on the same level.

"I'm very happy. Today's game is a victory for the team. I don't care about this kind of record. What I care about is that the team won. Now the team has won two consecutive victories in the Champions League group stage. This is what I care about.

Question."

Then came the reporter from China Sports Monthly.

"Does playing in the Champions League feel any different from playing in the Eredivisie?"

"Indeed, there is. First of all, it is because the Netherlands is relatively small, so playing home and away games is not a big problem. In addition, in the Netherlands, Ajax is a wealthy team and a dominant team, so Ajax fans are all over the Netherlands.

, the difference between home and away games is actually not that big, but it is different at the Champions League level. The difference between home and away games is very big. Like today's game, CSKA Moscow fans have been cheering for their home team.
