Chapter 119 Young Courage
The Paris Saint-Germain bench on the sidelines.
Sitting on a chair, Wang Zi concentrated on watching every move of the players on the field. The second half only started for a few minutes, so he didn't need to prepare for warm-up right away.
In the boring 45 minutes of the first half, both Paris Saint-Germain and Ajax had few opportunities, and the occasional highlight was thunderous and rainy, so until the end of the first half, the game on the field was still 0:0. In the eyes of the fans, this did not conform to the style of a crucial focus match at all.
At the beginning of the second half, the two teams obviously improved their speed.
Seeing that the situation on the court became more intense, Patrick Gillo couldn't help cheering up, and he didn't forget to joke: "Paris Saint-Germain and Ajax finally remembered after a half-time silence that the match tonight was to compete for the place to qualify for the Champions League group stage. I thought they all forgot about it."
Joan Lu nodded and said, "Indeed, the players on both sides have shown great strength. Presumably, Combore and Frank de Boer gave their players tactics and tasks for the second half during the halftime break."
"When the coaches and players start to realize what the goal is today, the excitement of the game is self-evident. For us fans who watch the game, we will obviously see that the game's enjoyment has increased."
Following Yoan Lu's words, Patrick Gillo said: "When it comes to the enjoyment of the game, I think it is more enjoyable to watch two teams that are evenly matched. Back and forth mutual attacks or confrontations are also interesting, just like Paris Saint-Germain and Ajax on the field now. Well, there is a premise, that is, the two teams participating in the competition must work hard for each other."
"However, this is just my own opinion, because some fans may say that the game with more goals and one-sided game is more enjoyable. I don't think there is anything wrong with their opinion, but from my point of view, I don't agree with it."
"Some people like to watch the match between Paris Saint-Germain and Ajax tonight, and there must be others who prefer to watch the other group match between Real Madrid and Dinamo Zagreb at home in Group D."
"When we watched Paris Saint-Germain play against Ajax, Real Madrid on the other side had a big lead over the Croatian giants. We experienced a boring first half, but the other side was completely one-sided. Sitting at the Bernabeu, Real Madrid took a three-goal lead in less than 10 minutes. The striker trident Benzema, Higuain and Callejon all scored goals."
"Then, Ozil added the icing on the cake, so that at the end of the first half, Real Madrid had already 4-0 Dinamo Zagreb, and it was only a matter of time before the record of five consecutive victories in the group stage."
"..."
-
The confrontation in the second half was very fierce. It can be seen clearly from the number of yellow cards not only received by players on both sides during this period, but whether it is Paris Saint-Germain or Ajax, the two teams are still a little short of scoring goals.
In the 7 minutes of the game, Ajax held the offensive momentum. After Vertonghen intercepted Varo's ball in the backcourt, he directly passed it to the midfield with a big foot. The ball went over the heads of the crowd and went straight to the center circle.
Near the center circle, after anticipating where the ball will land, Ebesilio, who followed, jumped up and overwhelmed Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Matuidi, who took off at the same time, and swung the ball to Eriksson on the right.
The Ajax midfielder unloaded the flying ball with his foot. Facing Nene, who was rushing straight up, Eriksson swiped the ball with his right foot to avoid the Brazilian's stretching foot to grab the ball, and then hit it horizontally to Ebesilio who came to meet him.
Ebesilio touched the ball with the inside of his left foot. The moment the ball hit the inside of his foot, the Ajax teenager, who is the same age as Wang Zi, adjusted the inside of his foot obliquely forward, and then pushed the ball hard, and passed it to the right sideline.
Soleimani on the sideline started to accelerate to catch up with the ball in front of Ebesilio. After receiving the ball, Soleimani accelerated again on the right, but still failed to get rid of Zumana Camara who had been following him.
On the right side of Ajax, Soleimani and Zumana Camara rushed all the way to the bottom line of Paris Saint-Germain's backcourt.
At the same time, Jansen has already inserted in the middle to receive the cross from Soleimani.
While running fast, Soleimani saw the right time and sent a low pass!
"Ajax's Soleimani's low cross from the right!"
The ball quickly flew into the penalty area!
The retreating Bodmer flew out, but still failed to block the flat ball from flying past his toes!
The ball that flew past the Paris Saint-Germain central defender began to fly along an arc!
Jansen, who caught up with the outflank from the middle, bypassed Thiene who was beside him while heading towards the ball.
Duchesz Douchet takes the initiative!
Among the three, Jansen was the first to touch the ball, but Duchez Duchet was not slow. The Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper, who reacted very quickly, knelt on his knees and tried to block Jansen's next shot.
Perhaps Duchesz Duchet reacted too quickly to kneel on the turf and infected the Ajax striker, or Janssen's own left foot failed to adjust before shooting, or it could be both. In the end, Janssen's shot from the instep of his left foot went wide of the post in front of the goal.
Jansen, who missed the opportunity, had to look up to the sky and sigh.
The Ajax fans who came to cheer on the scene were also very annoyed.
After a false alarm, Duchesz Duchet stood up from the ground and was also very dissatisfied with the loopholes of his teammates in this defense. The goalkeeper of Paris Saint-Germain kept warning his teammates to pay attention at all times.
Next, taking advantage of the hydration time of a dead ball, Combore, who was sitting on the sidelines coaching bench, also came to the area commanded by the head coach from the chair, and shouted loudly to the players who were replenishing water: "Stay focused! Concentrate! Don't give the opponent a chance! If you continue like this, the team will not be able to win the game, remember! If we lose, everything will be over and we will be eliminated! Wake up! Boys!"

At the 60nd minute of No.4, Compaure, who was the first to sit still, used two substitutions in a row. Bachbeck and Morris came on, while Varro and Matuidi were replaced. One was a match-up substitution, and the other was a formation adjustment. With Bachbeck and Morris playing successively, Paris Saint-Germain also changed from the initial 4-2-4 formation to a more aggressive 3-3-[-] formation.
In response to Paris Saint-Germain's substitutions, Ajax coach Frank De Boer did not make any changes. The Dutchman still insisted on the current team's technical and tactical play. He felt that sooner or later there would be a chance to score. It was only in the No. 608 minute of the game that Frank De Boer had to use a counter-position substitution, and the young defender Blind came off the bench.
Combore's formation adjustment made Paris Saint-Germain's offense much stronger, but the shortcomings were also exposed. After seven or 10 minutes, Sissoko's physical fitness dropped a lot. Matuidi's end made Sissoko's physical consumption continue to increase. After all, Nene and Pastore are mainly responsible for organizing the offense, and the defensive ability of the two is relatively low.
In this way, Frank De Boer's insistence on his technical and tactical style of play finally paid off.
No.703 minutes, Ajax advanced the attack to Paris Saint-Germain's half. After passing the midfield, Eriksson handed the ball to his teammate Eno on the left.
Jansen dribbled the ball and slowly pushed forward on the wing. Lodeiro and Eno were not far from the Ajax striker, ready to respond at any time. However, at this time, the Paris Saint-Germain defensive players also rushed up. With the addition of Eriksson, for a while, in the area on the left near the penalty area, players from both sides formed a four-on-four situation.
Near the touchline, parallel to the penalty area, Janssen passed the ball between Pastore and Sissoko, who remained parallel to Sierra, but Lodeiro broke through with the ball and rushed into the penalty area.
The ball passed easily between the two Paris Saint-Germain players. After receiving the ball on the left side of the frontcourt, Eriksson began to cut inward to the center. Without a few steps inward, Eriksson took the ball horizontally and then suddenly exerted force.
"A bow and an arrow!"
"Eriksen adjusted his right foot and hit the goal directly!"
The sudden shot made no one expect it, Duchesz Duche was even more unexpected. Although his body subconsciously made a save action, he was still a bit slower after all.
The ball shot out like a cannonball!
Hanging straight to the near end of the goal!
"Wow! The ball went in!"
Patrick Guillo yelled in the studio, but he was still a little unresponsive, because Eriksson's long shot was too unexpected, but this did not affect the French commentator who continued to yell excitedly.
"Goal! Eriksen!"
"Super heavy artillery! Unsolvable world waves!"
For Eriksson's unsolvable long-range shot, Patrick Gillo thought of all the adjectives he could think of for the time being.
Seeing that his favorite general scored such a fairy goal, Frank De Boer on the sidelines was not too excited or wildly celebrating, but just smiled and touched his chin, as if he knew that the team would score sooner or later, everything was in his hands.
-
One goal behind, if this score is maintained until the end of the game, then Paris Saint-Germain will be eliminated from the Champions League group stage one round ahead of schedule, thus missing this season's Champions League knockout round.
At this time, everyone who supported Paris Saint-Germain became anxious, including the fans, the players, and..., as well as the head coach Compaore.
The time will soon be 10 minutes, and Combore is anxiously thinking about the team's next countermeasures. If Paris Saint-Germain wants to retain the hope of advancing, then it must not lose this game.
The team still has one substitution, and there is Wang Zi on the bench.
Soon, Compaole called the assistant coach Clemente and walked to Compaole. Without thinking, Clement thought that the head coach would replace Wang Zi, so he subconsciously glanced at Wang Zi who was on the bench.
Wang Zi, who was anxious for the team, was also looking at Clemente and Compaore.
But more than ten seconds later, the fans in front of the TV screen did not see Clement going to call Wang Zire on the field, but saw the Paris Saint-Germain assistant coach first look at the head coach Compaure with surprise on his face, and then kept talking, which felt like arguing.
"Huh? What's going on? Shouldn't Paris Saint-Germain be substituting? Why did Clement suddenly become emotional? How did Combore arrange it?" Patrick Guillo also saw this scene, and then issued a series of questions.
Not only Patrick Gillo, but Yoan Lu was also very puzzled, guessing: "I don't know, is it because of a dispute over the selection of substitutions?"
As Joan Lu guessed, Clemente did have a dispute with coach Compaore.
Because at this critical point, Combore actually chose to let Chantome play to replace Sissoko. He decided to believe in the team's current striker trident.
But Clement is different. He thinks the same as most people now. The assistant coach of Paris Saint-Germain insists that it may be better to replace Wang Zi now. At the critical moment, it is impossible to let Sissoko try his best to persevere.
Without giving the assistant a chance to say any more reasons, Combore said firmly, "I am the head coach! Please obey my arrangement!"
With this sentence, Clemente looked at the unusually calm Combore, and then had to carry out his arrangement.
Half a minute later, when he learned that he would not be playing, the anxious Wang Zi was momentarily overwhelmed by anger. Wang Zi, who is usually calm and calm, picked up the water bottle beside him and smashed it on the ground.
There was a lot of movement, and all the teammates on the bench turned their heads to look at Wang Zi. They could understand Wang Zi's mood at this time, but everyone was still very surprised, because in their impression, Wang Zi was never such a person who was easily swayed by emotions.
Comporé also heard the sound of the water bottle hitting the ground, but he just turned his head and glanced at Wang Zi, and then turned his gaze back to the court.
Wang Zi's every move was transmitted from the director's camera to the TV screens that are being broadcast around the world.
"Wang Zi lost his temper. This is really the first time we have seen Wang Zi like this before."
Patrick Gillo is now even more shocked than the unsolvable world wave scored by Eriksson just now.
"He has never been such a person. What he did today can only prove that he is really too anxious for the team. Paris Saint-Germain is currently behind. Wang Zi believes that he can help the team by coming off the bench, but Compaure did not replace him, so all the negative emotions brought about by anxiety flooded into Wang Zi, so we can see him now." Adult teenagers, at this age, everyone will sometimes lose control of their emotions!"
How could Patrick Gillo not understand the meaning of his partner, and he echoed: "Yes, how can there be a teenager who is not rebellious? Right?"
-
In a certain VIP box at the Parc des Princes, Ancelotti was invited here at halftime, and Leonardo, who learned the news, also came here to accompany Ancelotti to watch the game.
After the scene where Wang Zi lost his temper, Leonardo said the same thing as Patrick Gillo.
"Mr. Leonardo, you don't need to say anything. After negotiating with you, I read a lot of reports and games about Paris Saint-Germain, so I think I should have a general understanding of Wang Zi. I know he is not such a player in normal times." After speaking, Ancelotti turned his head and continued with a smile: "And I don't think Wang Zi is rebellious."
"Huh?" Leonardo didn't react a little bit, thinking he heard it wrong, he turned his head and stared at Ancelotti.
With a smile, Ancelotti said: "Because Paris Saint-Germain is now behind, and falling behind means that you will be eliminated one round earlier, so Wang Zi is too anxious, and the head coach is not going to let him play, so he will vent his dissatisfaction with the head coach like this."
"The most important thing is, I don't think this is what you call rebellious young people. In my opinion, this is not rebellious. It's just Wang Zi's courage to express his desire to play. But this kind of young people's courage is often misunderstood as rebellious."
