When the game started again, Barcelona's offense became slow again.

Alves and Adriano no longer stepped forward to attack, while Mascherano and Pique stayed at the end. Barcelona's defense line seemed much more stable.

Van Basten couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

He also hopes to make another quick counterattack to completely end the suspense of this game...

He glanced at Guardiola sitting upright, and felt a little impressed:

After all, he is a legendary man who is at the peak of his career as soon as he debuts. He is used to countless big scenes and can still remain calm at this time. If the White Swan is at a disadvantage, he may have been unable to sit in the coaching seat for a long time...

"After adjusting the intermission, Barcelona got rid of their anxious mood, regained their rhythm, and sought opportunities by patiently turning their feet back. Ajax continued to defend and counterattack, and the game during this period looked a bit dull..."

He Wei took a sip of coffee to cheer himself up.

"But storms often brew in this dullness. Barcelona often uses the continuous downs of the midfield and backcourt. On the one hand, it is to attract the opponent's defense line to move forward, thus forming a gap. On the other hand, it is also to paralyze the opponent and make them accustomed to this slow pace, and then suddenly change the speed. This kind of tactic like boiling frogs in warm water makes people unable to defend against it." Xu Yang reminded Van Basten, "So Ajax must not relax his vigilance, but must continue to put pressure on Barcelona. Once they stop pressing and allow their opponents to gain space for activity, it is very likely to pose a threat!"

Of course, Van Basten understands this truth, Ajax players understand this truth, and even coaches and players around the world understand this truth. Barcelona's characteristics have been broken and studied in recent years, but there are still few teams that can defeat them.

If you want to completely restrain their ball control from beginning to end, you must maintain a full-time defender and press all the game, but... who can guarantee that their players have the ability to press all the time and never stop?

As long as a defensive player is a little lazy, slows down, or fails to react, Barcelona will use their precise pass to tear a hole, and then stab the sharpest weapon into the opponent's chest!

So Van Basten repeatedly reminded his disciples during the halftime break that they must not relax, otherwise the previous 135 minutes of hard work may be silly!

As long as they persist for another 45 minutes, they can step on Barcelona's corpse and advance to the Champions League semi-finals!

If these words are for some old players who are not willing to do anything, I'm afraid those old fry will not react, but for Ajax, the young people who are eager to prove their abilities to the world with excellent performance, this is a great temptation. For this goal, they can often exert energy beyond their own, and even their fatigue seems to be much weakened.

Moreover, young people often have a sense of competition. When they see their vice captain always trying their best to entangle with the opponent's most threatening Messi, and face the strongest football king in the world, their competitive spirit will also burn.

At some times, mental strength and fighting spirit can indeed make up for technical and tactical shortcomings, especially when the referee has a relatively relaxed grasp of the dictator's standards...

The referee from the Premier League, Clattenberg, is used to seeing the situation of England's reluctance. Most of the so-called red card moves complained by Barcelona players did not even foul.

What's more, this is Ajax's home court after all, and having a little advantage in calling can also be regarded as an international practice.

In such an atmosphere, the game slowly advanced to the 70th minute.

Guardiola finally replaced Pedro with his own fortune. The Saber's appearance will undoubtedly enhance the team's overall speed and wing breakthrough ability.

But Ajax's defense line was still unmoved. Van Basten referred to Mourinho's tactics against Barcelona during Inter Milan and Chelsea, and directed his disciples to tightly compress the two defense lines, giving Pedro and others no room for impact.

A low cross from the wing ball penetrates?

Sorry, the middle lane is already crowded, and the wing players are not sure that they can send the ball to their teammates' feet.

A high ball cross?

Sorry, facing Vertonheng and Oleg, two centre-backs, about 1.9 meters, whether it is Villa or Messi, they have no advantage in fighting for headers...

Five minutes after Pedro came on the court, Barcelona's offensive still did not improve, and Guardiola finally couldn't sit still.

At 45 minutes, he could also use the Istanbul miracle to encourage himself and the players, but when the game was less than fifteen minutes, his face also showed an anxious look.

Guardiola, standing on the sidelines, shouted the players while using rich hands to gesture offensive tactics. However, many people suspected that the anxious Barcelona players were really in the mood to analyze what tactics such complex movements represented?

Messi and Long Shute and Ennuo's fight continues. As time goes by, Ennuo's physical fitness and attention have declined to a certain extent. Once Messi had completed continuous escape, but was thrown to the ground by Long Shute who had caught up again.

In order to stop the Argentine football king, Long Shute and Enno received a yellow card, but they still felt that the little flea never gave up.

In order to strengthen the defense, Van Basten made two consecutive substitutions, Blind replaced Enno's job, and Alderweireld replaced Oleg, whose physical fitness was declining.

When Oleg came off the court, Ajax fans took the initiative to give him an applause to thank him for his best performance when facing his old master.

When the game entered the 80th minute, Guardiola played all the remaining two cards in his hand. 90-year-old striker Boyan replaced the mediocre Keita, and 91-year-old Teluo replaced Villa with poor feet.

"Barcelona's substitutes are too young. It's probably too risky to let them play in such a critical moment..."

"If they can't become saviors, they will likely be overwhelmed by the pressure that comes with it..."

The two commentators sneered Guardiola's substitution adjustments with one word.

But Guardiola is really no one available, and there are only old goalkeeper Pinto and three defenders on the bench. Should he replace them with them to strengthen the defense when the attack is urgently needed?

Guardiola once laughed at his old enemy Mourinho, because the Portuguese often used several forwards to fight back after being forced into a desperate situation, but it was his turn now.

He waved his arm, and Adriano and Alves, who had been holding it in for half an hour, began to move forward desperately. Pique also rushed to the front of the team as a high center forward, and Barcelona launched a desperate attack!

This is the final battle!

Every mistake may make the team doomed, and every flash of inspiration may make you a hero.

Van Basten and Guardiola both stood firmly on the sidelines, staring motionlessly at the twenty-two players on the field, and the black and white football rolling repeatedly under their feet.

Van Basten, who was leading by one goal, was even more nervous than his opponent: he had been teased by that God too many times, and he was really afraid that God would give him another black three minutes, just like Bayern Munich, who lost two goals in injury time, sent Ferguson and Manchester United to the altar...

Time passes by second by second, which is simply suffocating.

Barcelona players have long given up the infiltration of the middle and repeated downs. Xavi's long pass and crosses from both sides have become their frequent offensive routines. Pique's forward insertion also ensures that they have a high point in the penalty area where they can earn a header.

In the face of Barcelona's tide-like offensive, Ajax had to retreat. Under the command of veteran driver Van Basten, they parked a red and white double-decker bus in front of the goal guarded by Stegrenberg.

Before this bus, people were overturned inside and outside the penalty area, and the whistles became the busiest sound at the last moment. Kratenberg was also sweating profusely, and he showed two yellow cards to both teams one after another.

No one will criticize Van Basten for his conservative and ugly tactics, as long as he wins the final victory.

The last five minutes have passed since the regular game time ended.

No one could have expected whether Barcelona would reverse the Jedi within these five minutes.

Van Basten felt like he was about to faint.

Guardiola couldn't help but wipe the sweat all over his hands.

His eyes fell on the short player on the field.

He wants to see a miracle.

Just like those miracles that have been performed before!

Messi received a pass from Xavi.
Chapter completed!
