Chapter 171: High position pressing, so embarrassing

Lin Kedi stood in the players tunnel.

He stood at the end of the Ajax team.

Messi is the captain of Barcelona in this game, and he stands at the front of the team.

At this time, the Camp Nou stadium was already filled with people, and the fans were shouting one after another.

Lin Kedi could clearly hear that kind of fanatical feeling even if he was in the players' tunnel.

This makes Lin Kedi excited. Lin Kedi is the kind of player who gets more excited in bigger scenes and performs better.

Immediately afterwards, the two sides walked to the court.

When the DJ started shouting out the names of Barcelona players, every fan at the scene shouted to show their support.

When "No. 10, Leo Messi" was shouted, the noise at the scene went up to another level.

Later, when the DJ called out the names of Ajax players, the Barcelona fans booed and were very quiet at other times. But when the DJ shouted "No. 29, Ke Enemy-Lin", a huge roar rang out instantly.

boos.

Link is not surprised, after all, he made those remarks a few days ago.

On the other hand, De Rong looked at Lin Kedi.

"Don't—"

"Don't worry, I've never seen anything like this. It's so trivial."

Then it went to the center line.

"The game is about to begin. Today both sides have deployed their strongest combat capabilities.

Barcelona played a 433 formation today.

The goalkeeper is Ter Stegen.

The defense line from left to right is Alba, Lenglet, Pique and Roberto.

The three midfielders are Vidal, Busques and Rakitic.

The front three are Coutinho, Suarez and Messi."

"Ajax's starting lineup is 4231.

The goalkeeper is Onana.

The defense line from left to right is Tagliafico, Blind, De Ligt and Mazraoui.

The double defensive midfielders are Schone and De Jong, and the attacking midfielder is Van de Beek.

The left winger is Tadic, the right winger is Ziyech, and the center forward is our Lin Keni!"

At this time, Ajax captain Schone and Barcelona captain Messi began to choose which side to take first.

In the end, Barcelona took the lead in the first half.

Lin Kedi also stood on the right side of the center line.

At this time, Lin Kedi's mind recalled Ten Hahe's last words at the tactical meeting.

"If Barcelona kicks off first in the first half, we will still have the same strategy as before, which is to press them in the high position, press them in the high position, use physical strength to suppress them. The forwards directly confront their midfielders and our midfielders.

Go against their forwards. In the end, you must disrupt their offensive rhythm. Of course, it would be better if you can intercept the ball from Messi's feet! Because he will not chase back!"

Ten Hag said this at the end of the tactical meeting, so all the main players understood it and listened carefully.

"Beep——"

The referee blew the whistle to start the first half.

Suarez stood in the center circle and kicked the ball directly to Busques in midfield.

The moment the whistle sounded, Lin Kedi basically accelerated forward like a flying bow and arrow.

Generally speaking, few players from the side that did not kick off the ball would accelerate so directly.

When Lin Kedi quickly rushed to Busquets, the world-class defensive midfielder Busques almost panicked, but many years of experience still calmed Busques down, and he decisively kicked his heel.

The ball passed to the feet of Pique behind the defense.

Link watched Busquet pass the ball behind him, and he came to the area between Barcelona's midfielder and defense line.

When Lin Kedi stopped advancing, Ajax's two wingers began to take action. Tadic on the left pressed towards the rib area to press Pique from the side, forcing Pique not to pass.

Go to the right wing. In this way, Pique has only three options: pass back to the goalkeeper, pass to Barcelona's left wing, and pass forward. As for the option of wide-footing, Pique does not exist at all.

Among these three options, two options are not feasible for Pique, because passing to his left side is where Ajax defender Mazraoui is.

When passing forward, Lin Kedi is defending behind the midfielder.

Therefore, Pique briefly thought about it and decided to directly pass the ball back to the goalkeeper and let the goalkeeper handle the pass again.

Although Barcelona is no longer the traditional tiki-taka, some basic things still exist, that is, don't take too big a step easily.

In fact, whether you can use your big foot or not has nothing to do with your technical skills. Sometimes you need to use your big foot. For example, Barcelona is in a situation where the backcourt is blocked by three forwards from Ajax from three directions.

Surrounded, at this time Barcelona wanted to be stable and did not want the opponent to steal the ball in Barcelona's backcourt, so they were thinking and hesitating.

At this time, decisively move forward with a big kick, so that Ajax's front three can only retreat, and Barcelona can also take the opportunity to press the defense line.

In short, this is the simplest defensive idea.

But here in Barcelona it's a bit awkward.

In the end, Pique did not choose to take a big kick, but passed it back to goalkeeper Ter Stegen.

After all, Pique came from La Masia, and he wants to be the president of Barcelona in the future. It is understandable that he has these unnecessary burdens.

However, Ter Stegen did not take a big shot immediately after receiving the ball, which is indeed a bit surprising.

From the German's perspective, Tadic on the left is standing in the ribs, and Roberto next to him can actually receive his pass.

So Ter Stegen decisively made a diagonal pass to Roberto.

But what the Germans didn't expect was that Tadic was faster. He turned around, got stuck, and got the ball.

It looked like Ter Stegen passed directly to Tadic.

"The goalkeeper made a bad pass!"

Zhan Jun shouted excitedly.

As soon as Tadic got the ball, he didn't hesitate and passed directly.

There is only one point in the penalty area where Link can defeat the enemy.

But after Pique passed the ball back to the goalkeeper, he did not return to the penalty area to defend at all. Instead, he stood at the top of the penalty area. At this time, there was only Lenglet in the penalty area.

Lenglet looked at the ball with confidence and jumped high.

He is confident that his height can completely compete for the ball.

But Lenglet immediately discovered that he was wrong, and how wrong he was.

Because Lin Kedi can jump higher than him, and Lin Kedi has already hit the ball.

Lenglet subconsciously turned his head and looked in the direction of the goal.

I saw Ter Stegen close his hands and making fists, trying to hit the ball with both fists.

But the ball flew past Ter Stegen's right hand.

Ter Stegen realized that he had made a mistake in judgment and wanted to swing his right arm to hit the ball, but the ball was hit by Link with great force.

The ball seemed to have a set path and flew towards the goal.

When the ball hit the net, Lin Ke fell to the ground, rushed to the corner flag, and when he reached the corner flagpole, he jumped high and punched hard.

The Camp Nou fell into a brief but long silence for three seconds.

Zhan Jun was so excited and ecstatic that he stood up with the microphone in hand.

"This goal was scored! Who would have thought! Less than 2 minutes into the game, Ajax took the lead in scoring! It was Lin Kedi who scored the goal! He helped Ajax open the scoring! This is his 18th goal this season

A Champions League goal! He surpassed Cristiano Ronaldo and became the player with the most goals in the Champions League in a single season! The most important thing is that this is an away goal, which is extremely important for Ajax! Ajax played

A blitzkrieg was launched and Barcelona was caught off guard!"
