Long Shute's goal occurred in the 74th minute of the game, and Ajax equalized the score.

Scoring at this point in time is undoubtedly very critical:

The 70-75 minutes are usually the critical point for players' physical fitness, especially Ajax, who plays one less player. If the stalemate continues, it will be difficult for them to have the physical fitness to continue to maintain such high-intensity full-game press.

But now that both sides have returned to the starting line, Ajax's players can finally breathe a little and let their feet rest for a few seconds.

"If Van Basten thinks he can breathe a sigh of relief by equalizing the score, then he is still far from it!"

After experiencing the shock just now, commentator Dekur re-held his airs, his face still changed, and his heart was not beating.

"They have one less person to fight, and their physical energy consumption is much greater than their opponents. In addition, Enno's injury has used up a substitution quota in advance. Even if they want to adjust, they don't have many choices. If the game enters overtime, I can guarantee that Ajax will definitely collapse!"

How could Van Basten not understand this truth?

But what can he do?

He was also very desperate...

He can only hope that his players can seize the last ten minutes to score another goal. If it is really as Dekur said, the game will be dragged into overtime, it will definitely be a disaster for Ajax, who is not physically fit. You must know that there are almost no national team players in Twente, and even if there are one or two, they are still marginal players of the marginal team...

what to do?

He still holds the last substitution quota, but he doesn't know who to send to the field. There is also second goalkeeper Fermeer, new player Hamdawi, substitute defender Blinder Jr., Vertonheng, who is slightly injured but cannot get off the front line, and young player Eriksen, who has just been promoted from the youth team.

Who can be replaced?

Who can help him recover his downturn like Long Shute a season ago?

Van Basten's eyes swept through the five players on the bench one by one, but... he was not sure.

"Dennis..." He moved his lips, but his voice was a little dry, "Let them all warm up..."

Borgkamp is also anxious. As an assistant, he should have made suggestions to the head coach, but he can only execute vague orders like Van Basten.

Furmeer and others had just run two steps when they heard a whistle coming from the field.

Two players from Twente and Ajax fell to the ground at the same time in a fight!

Ajax fell... Lindgren, who replaced Enno in the 5th minute, struggled to get up from the ground and complained to the referee about the opponent's reckless foul, but as soon as his feet moved, he was knocked down by a sudden twitching feeling!

He has cramps!

-

"Ahhhh..."

Dekur let out a gloating exclaim:

"Look, I'm right. The physical fitness of Ajax players is at their limit. Lindgren is only the first one, and there will be a second and third one soon... It's impossible to make them stick to 90 minutes and then play 30 minutes of overtime."

Even Jansen, who has always believed that this partner is not objective enough, could not refute at this time: "Van Basten should indeed consider solving the problem within regular time, otherwise the situation will only be more difficult for them."

-

Lindgren, who was cramped, has been the left forward for this period of time, and Erikson and Blinder on the bench can be served. Hamdawi may also consider it in front of him. If he wants to substitute, he will only choose between these three people.

"Sorry..." Lindgren tried to exert force, but finally couldn't hold on. He shook his head helplessly at Long Shute who helped him stretch his legs.

Although he was a substitute, he only played 5 minutes less than other starters, which was almost equivalent to playing the first 70 minutes. His fate made everyone's heart sank.

Van Basten saw all this in his eyes. Lindgren performed very hard during the game, so his physical fitness was consumed very quickly...

As the head coach, he can only accept the status quo and make adjustments as soon as possible.

Then the question was before him:

Who should I change?

"Coach..." A familiar voice rang in his ear.

Van Basten was surprised: because Long Shute, who was still on the court for Lindgren to squeeze his legs a few seconds ago, is now in front of him.

"Let Daly come on the field," his confidant young man leaned over to his ears, "He is more familiar with our tactics and me."

As a time traveler who is more than 20 years old, Long Shute certainly knows that doing so may make the head coach feel that authority is being challenged, but he has no time to consider how to express his opinions tactfully.

Because he has a deep relationship with Van Basten, he is a player promoted and focused on training by Van Basten. His performances that have turned the tide many times also prove his loyalty to this man. A suggestion would not make Van Basten suspect that this disciple wanted to shake his position in the locker room.

Of course, with Van Basten's influence in Dutch football, even if Long Shute wants to raise his arms and rebel and become a ball dominant, no teammate will respond to him. He will only be kicked out by Ajax Club...

"Daly?" Van Basten had no time to consider whether his beloved disciple wanted to rebel, and he focused all on Blind.

Blinder's job is more inclined toward the right back, with solid basic skills and good defensive ability. In addition, he also has a very high-level long pass...

Long pass?

Van Basten's eyes lit up, and he immediately waved to Brinde: "Get ready to go on stage, boy!"

Brinder looked at Long Shute standing next to the head coach and took off the substitute vest on his body.

"Although it's a pity, there are only 15 minutes left for you to perform," Long Shute looked at him with a smile, "We're going to resolve the battle in 15 minutes!"

Although I had no idea where the roommate's confidence came out, Brinde's little heart, which was a little worried just now... suddenly became quiet.

-

"Ahh, Long Shute came to the sidelines. Could it be that he can't do it?"

Dekur saw the Chinese young player talking to Van Basten at a glance, and he immediately danced:

"The importance of Long Shute to Ajax is self-evident. Without his full-scale running, Ajax would not have been able to tie the score. Now even his physical fitness is problematic, we may be able to completely conclude..."

His conclusion was interrupted by Jansen in time: "Van Basten made the last substitution adjustment, Lindgren really couldn't hold on..."

"Are... Van Basten just now discussing a replacement with Long Shute?" Dekur's expression became extremely surprised, "When did China's No. 8's opinion be so important?"

-

With Blind's appearance, Eriksen and Hamdawi returned to the bench.

The three places have been used up, and their warm-up activities have no meaning anymore.

Although they did not hear what Long Shute said to Van Basten, they could see from the scene where the two of them bit their ears that the two must be discussing something.

The 26-year-old Hamdavi's eyes flashed and erratic.

Eriksen, 18, also looked thoughtful.

Everyone knows that Long Shute is the absolute confidant of the head coach. Without his strength to turn the tide, Ajax's honor in last season would definitely be much dimmed.

And Blinder and Long Shute have been roommates since the youth team!
