1552 Goal: Qualify for the top spot in the group!
The day after Real Madrid lost 1-5 to Barcelona away, Real Madrid held a press conference at the Bernabeu Stadium.
Chairman Florentino was present at the scene and announced the dismissal of head coach Lopetegui. At the same time, the resignation was also the technical director Bardano who made great contributions to the club. The difference was that Lopetegui was passively dismissed, while Bardano took the initiative to resign.
The Argentinian is not young anymore, so he wants to retreat.
Florentino showed his demeanor and expressed his gratitude to Lopetegui and Bardano, but also mentioned that the team's problems are very serious and have reached the point where they must be solved.
"It's obvious that with our lineup and our strength, we will definitely not be able to play like this!"
Florentino said that Real Madrid will immediately start high-level negotiations, hoping to finalize an implementation plan as soon as possible based on the current situation and will announce the final results to the public in the near future.
With the Real Madrid management not finally choosing the next head coach, Real Madrid's second team head coach Solari will temporarily take over as the first team head coach, which is also a consistent tradition in Real Madrid's history.
The meritorious coach of that year, Boske served as the acting head coach of the first team as the coach of the second team many times. In the 1990s to 2000s, he became the most successful fire-fighting coach in Real Madrid's history and led the team to win the Champions League.
Florentino promised that the management will stabilize the mood of the team and fans as soon as possible and will definitely take satisfactory measures.
Regarding what Real Madrid fans called for and hoped to invite Yang Yang back, Florentino said he had heard it.
"I can understand the mood of Real Madrid fans at this moment. Yang Yang is the greatest player in Real Madrid's history. He is still the strongest player in the world football today. At the same time, he has also achieved amazing results in coaching Ajax this season, but it is unrealistic to want him to return to Real Madrid in the short term."
"I called him and I learned about his situation in Ajax, and he told me that he was having fun there, he was experimenting with something, he was trying some breakthroughs, which was very important to him, and I understand and respect his choice."
Florentino said with regret that at least before the end of this season, Yang Yang would not be able to return to Real Madrid.
"But what I want to say is that we will always open the door for him, we will continue to keep in touch and communicate with him, we welcome him back at any time, and he will always be our most precious asset!"
...
The statement from Real Madrid president has indeed disappointed many people, especially Real Madrid fans.
But in fact, this is not surprising.
Yang Yang is now coaching Ajax, and his performance is booming. He even won the top spot in the group in the Champions League. Now that he can really make a breakthrough, it will be the first time Ajax has broken through the group stage in nearly twelve years and created a new history.
In this case, how could Yang Yang give up Ajax's achievements, give up halfway, and turn to Real Madrid?
The media quickly turned around and pointed at Zidane and the famous Italian coach Conte, believing that both of them were very likely to take over Real Madrid, but the French media quickly clarified that Zidane had no plans to return to Real Madrid for the time being.
"He thinks it's hard for him to make a breakthrough in Real Madrid. More importantly, Real Madrid now does not have Yang Yang!"
Conte is very interested in coaching Real Madrid, but Real Madrid's management is still a little worried about him.
"According to reliable information, Real Madrid management is currently more inclined to invite Zidane back, while Florentino is making an interesting request to the technical department, which is to evaluate Yang Yang, who coaches Ajax."
"Perhaps, we can't rule out that after the end of this season, Real Madrid will pack Yang Yang and his group of outstanding Ajax players to buy Real Madrid."
...
The Dutch Common Daily reported it quickly, clarifying that the news that Yang Yang's transfer to Real Madrid was a rumor.
"On the day when Real Madrid coach Lopetegui was dismissed and it was rumored that Yang Yang would return, Yang Yang publicly promised on DeTok Most that he would not leave Ajax, he would continue to stay in the team and advance and retreat with everyone."
"Not only that, Yang Yang also called out for the first time in front of the DeTok Most players that the team must do everything they can to compete for the right to qualify in the group, or even the top spot in the group."
Soon, a video of Yang Yang's public voice in DeTok Moster was also revealed on the Internet. Yang Yang seemed ambitious and confidently analyzed the current situation in the Champions League Group B in front of all the players, believing that as long as Ajax plays the next three games well, there is a great hope of qualifying in the group.
"This will be our first breakout from the group stage in the past twelve years!"
"As I said before, I have always believed that you are a group of outstanding players, your potential is far from being discovered, and you can be stronger and better!"
"Before the season, no one believed we could break out of the playoffs because we hadn't entered the Champions League group stage for several years, but in the end we defeated Standard Liege and Dynamo Kiev and entered the Champions League group stage."
"In the past two months, when we were in the same death group as Bayern Munich, Inter Milan and Tottenham Hotspur, no one believed we could get out of this purgatory, but now, after three rounds of games, we were ranked first in the group!"
"What does this mean?"
"This means we are always creating surprises, we are always impressing everyone!"
"I hope that after the end of this season, after many years, we will look back and realize that we are creating a legendary season, and each of you will quickly reach the peak of your career starting this season!"
"Many years later, I, and all the Ajax people behind me, and all the Ajax fans, and even you yourself, will definitely be proud and proud of you this season!"
"Now, we only have one goal, the right to qualify for the top group!"

On October 31, Cruyff Stadium in Amsterdam.
In the second round of the Dutch Cup, Ajax faced the Progress Eagles at home.
Yang Yang still rotated the team drastically and replaced eight players in one breath, but Ajax still defeated the Forward Eagles three-to-zero with the goals of Stens, Mullen and Boadu.
This victory allowed Ajax to successfully enter the semi-finals of the Netherlands Cup, but Eindhoven was not so lucky.
Van Bomel's team drew Valvik 2-2 at home and conceded the ball in the subsequent overtime game, and eventually lost to Valvik 2-3 at home, regrettingly missing the right to advance.
This also surprised the domestic media in the Netherlands, and at the same time they realized that Van Bomel's team was in trouble.
Everyone turned around and found that Ajax trained by Yang Yang was surprisingly stable. He won consecutive victories this season, especially in the Netherlands. He was extremely powerful and was always rotated on a large scale, giving everyone a chance to compete and maintain the player's condition.
In the quarterfinals, Ajax will challenge Roda JC away. This is a Dutch second team. Everyone believes that Ajax will win and advance.

On November 3, the eleventh round of Eredivisie.
Eindhoven faces Wits at home.
Just fourteen minutes into the first half, Witts central defender Danilo was hit by a red card, hitting Witts' defense hard, but Eindhoven still couldn't defeat him again and eventually defeated Witts 1-0 with Luke Dejong's goal.
If the Dutch Cup matches make people feel tired, then the game against Witts completely exposed Eindhoven's sluggishness. Many media even believe that Van Bomel's team may soon have problems.
Ajax was still in a big rotation, and finally defeated William II 2-0 with two goals from Jovic and De Jong, and scored another three-pointer.
The best performance in this game was Argentine left-back Taliafico. Although he only had one assist, he was the most threatening player in the game. His performance this season also made it difficult for Brazil's left-back Joe to challenge his main position.
However, Yang Yang still had no intention of giving up Ruore.
The right back is Mazravi, who is not as good as Ashraf, but his speed and offensive ability make Yang Yang still look forward to him.

On the evening of November 6, Wembley Stadium, London.
In the fourth round of the Champions League Group B, Ajax challenged Tottenham Hotspur away.

First, Ajax scored a goal away just two minutes into the opening game. Jovic received a cross from Nerez from the left and headed the ball, scoring Ajax's first record.
This is also the goal of the Serbian center in the Champions League group stage for two consecutive rounds.
After that, the two teams launched a series of offensives, but they never scored. It was not until the 78th minute that Harry Kane made a sneak attack in the chaos in the penalty area and equalized the score for Tottenham Hotspur.
But just three minutes later, after Ndongbele scored the ball in the middle, Yang Yang successfully counterattacked and entered the penalty area after receiving the ball, and shot from the far corner with his right foot, which made Ajax once again surpassed the score.
The good times didn't last long. In the 89th minute, another goal from Harry Kane helped Tottenham equalize the score again.
In the end, the two teams shook hands two to two, and neither of them could defeat their opponents.
This ninety-minute offensive game contributed a total of 46 shots, and an average shot every two minutes was made. It was quite exciting, and the ball possession rates of the two teams were also comparable, 52 to 48.
With a bloody away game, Ajax won a valuable point, laying an advantage for the group promotion.
