At noon on May [-]nd, Zwolle, Eastern Netherlands, Osterlenk Stadium.
When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, everyone in Ajax rushed into the field frantically.
From the coaching staff to the players, as well as thousands of fans who came to the away game with the team, they all fell into a carnival.
The scoreboard showed the final score of the game, zero to five!
According to international practice, the home team is at the front and the visiting team is at the back.
Ajax beat Zwolle [-]-[-] away with Songk's hat-trick and goals from Galasek and Sneijder.
In another game at the same time, Eindhoven also beat Volendam [-]-[-] away, but after the end of this round, Ajax still led Eindhoven by seven points. With only two rounds left in the league, Ajax won the championship ahead of schedule.
This is Ajax's first championship trophy this season!
As early as a week ago, in the No.30 round of the Eredivisie, when Ajax, who just slammed Monaco in the Champions League, drew [-]-[-] with Nijmegen, countless media reporters and fans were worried, would Ajax not be able to hold on in the third-line battle, and eventually collapsed and was counterattacked by Eindhoven?
But this five-to-zero match made everyone completely relieved.
Wesley Songk scored a hat-trick in six, 78 and 82 minutes.
Yang Yang came off the bench in the No.705 minute, and then opened the defensive player for Sneijder, allowing the Dutch midfielder to assist Wesley Sonke to score, and then Garasek assisted Sneijder to score.
It was not until the No.80 second minute that Yang Yang assisted Wesley Songk to score, which was the icing on the cake.
With five goals, Ajax won the Eredivisie championship this season two rounds ahead of schedule.
This made Ajax very excited, but also boosted morale. The team can concentrate more on preparing for the Champions League and Dutch Cup finals, and the first to bear the brunt is the away game against Monaco three days later.
Yang Yang was grinning from ear to ear on the court. He really didn't expect that he could win the championship.
You know, a year ago, he was just sitting on the bus in Almere, looking at the Amsterdam Arena like a pilgrimage, but now, he has put on the Ajax jersey and ascended to the throne of the league champion.
It's all just like a dream.
What is even more unbelievable is that as long as they keep their first-leg results in the away game three days later and eliminate Monaco, Ajax will enter the Champions League final and is expected to win the Eredivisie, Dutch Cup and Champions League triple crown.
This is definitely a shocking result, because in the history of the Eredivisie, only two teams have won the treble.
One is the Ajax team led by Cruyff in the early 70s, and the other is the Eindhoven team coached by Guus Hiddink in the late 80s, and these two teams have become legends so far.
Even if it is missed by countless fans, in the mid-90s, the Ajax team led by Van Gaal failed to win this honor, but now, it is waving to Ajax players not far ahead.
Thinking of this, Yang Yang felt that his whole body was on fire.
A sense of accomplishment in creating history welled up in his heart, filling him with strength.
The same is true of all Ajax players, he believes.
When all the players threw the head coach Ronald Koeman into the air, the Ajax fans in the stands also played the slogans of the triple crown, and even many Zwolle fans played slogans to encourage Ajax, hoping that the Eredivisie giants can gain something in the Champions League.
This is not only the glory of Ajax, but also the glory of the entire Eredivisie league.
…………
…………
May [-], Monaco, Stade Louis II.
This is a focus battle.
Monaco formed a four-four-two double-center formation, with Morientes and Purshaw as two high-center strikers, Roten and Giuly separated on the two wings, and Deschamps set up a strong attack formation from the beginning.
Ajax still adopted a four-three-three formation to deal with it. Galasek and De Jong formed a double midfielder, Sneijder served as a forward midfielder, and Van der Vaart, Ibrahimovic and Wesley Songk partnered forward.
The game entered a fast pace from the very beginning, and the two sides played very fiercely.
Especially in Monaco, the offensive pressure was very high, showing the determination to break the boat, which put great defensive pressure on Ajax, especially in the No.304 minute of the first half, after Morientes scored a goal, the Ligue [-] powerhouse was almost crazy.
After changing sides to fight again in the second half, Monaco continued to pursue the victory and took the posture of eating Ajax in one breath, while Ronald Koeman took the initiative to put up a defensive counterattack posture, but he was still suppressed extremely embarrassingly.
Especially when the game progressed to the minute, the veteran Garasek received the second yellow card of the game for a foul, and was directly sent off the field with a red card. The entire Stade Louis II fell into a carnival.
Deschamps immediately made a substitution, replacing the underperforming Pursau with Cisse, pushing Giuly to the front line, and continuing to strengthen the attack, while Ronald Koeman made a decisive decision and made substitution adjustments. Vermaelen replaced Wesley Songk on the wing, and Heitinga was pushed to the midfield to partner with De Jong.
After seven and 10 minutes, Monaco attacked more and more fiercely, Ajax was forced to be very embarrassed, and the defense line was precarious.
Ronald Koeman finally made another substitution in the No.703 minute, replacing Maxwell with Grigera.
Continuous substitutions failed to stop Monaco's mad attack. Didier Deschamps made the second substitution of the game in the 708th minute, replacing left back Evra with Ibarra. This was another strong signal to strengthen the frontcourt attack.
A one-to-zero victory does not guarantee that Monaco will advance. They need at least two goals to tie the total score, so Deschamps once again chose to strengthen the attack.
Just after Evra left the field, Ajax made the last substitution adjustment at No. 80 minutes.
On the 99th, Yang Yang came on the field and replaced the captain Van der Vaart on the field.
When the opponent replaced a left back, Ronald Koeman chose the gold medal substitute right forward Yang Yang.
But at this time Didier Deschamps couldn't care about anything. He quickly made a third substitution adjustment in the second minute of No.80. He replaced Morientes, who had almost exhausted his energy, with Adebayor.
But just 2 minutes after Adebayor played, Ajax suddenly hit a counterattack.
Sneijder made a diagonal pass and sent the ball to the back of Monaco's defense. Yang Yang tore through Monaco's defense with great speed like a bolt of lightning.
After grabbing the ball, Yang Yang was forced to the right side of the penalty area, but he deliberately slowed down. After Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the middle stepped in, he suddenly accelerated again. After swaying Squillage away with continuous and fast fake moves, he quickly made a low pass with his right foot.
Ibrahimovic quickly stepped in, overwhelmed Julien Rodriguez, grabbed a shot from close range, and the ball went straight to the bottom right corner of the goal, one to one!
This goal completely broke Ajax's morale and fighting spirit!
The morale of the Monaco players plummeted.
Because they now have to score four goals for Ajax in less than seven or eight minutes. How is this possible?
When the Ajax players on the field and the players on the sidelines rushed to the sidelines to celebrate together, the Monaco players lost control of their emotions. The captain Juli suddenly pushed down Ajax's midfielder Sneijder, triggering a confrontation between the two players.
After appeasing the players of the two teams, the referee gave Giuly a red card and directly sent the Monaco captain off the field, but at the same time warned the Ajax players that it is best to restrain themselves and not celebrate in front of their opponents.
After the game restarted, the Monaco players were still full of hostility, and several fouls were relatively rough. The referee finally couldn't bear it anymore. In the No.809 minute, he showed a second yellow card to the midfielder Ricos and sent off the Monaco midfielder with a red card.
One game, three red cards, the intensity of the game can be seen.
After the referee drew cards consecutively, the Monaco players also lost the confidence and fighting spirit to continue to resist.
In the end, the second round of the match between the two sides ended in a one-to-one draw.
Ajax defeated Monaco [-]-[-] on aggregate with [-]-[-] at home and advanced to the Champions League final.
But midfielder Garasek will be suspended for a red card in the final, which will also cause a huge loss to Ajax.
In another matchup, Porto relied on an away goal to narrowly beat Deportivo with a total score of [-]-[-] and joined Ajax in the Champions League final.
This is also the first time since the restructuring of the Champions League that no team from the four major leagues has entered the Champions League final.
…………
…………
On May 30th, No.[-] in the Eredivisie had three rounds.
Returning to Amsterdam from Monaco, Ajax, who had already won the championship ahead of schedule, was fully prepared for the two finals of the Dutch Cup and the Champions League. They played with a full bench in the league and finally defeated Breda [-]-[-] at home.
After this game, Ajax received the Eredivisie championship trophy this season, but the club did not organize a large-scale celebration, and more focused on preparing for the two finals.
A week later, the Eredivisie ended.
Ajax, who continued to play with a full bench, defeated Willem II [-]-[-] in the away game. Obodei scored twice, and Sawyertals, Pienaar and Dreedle scored successively.
Another week later, on the evening of May 22, at Feyenoord's De Kuip Stadium in Rotterdam.
Dutch Cup final, Ajax vs Utrecht.
After adjustments, Ajax's state appeared to be even better. They controlled the game situation from the very beginning, and they broke the opponent's goal in No.30 and No.32.
After changing sides to fight again in the second half, Ibrahimovic scored a goal in No. 605 minutes, locking the score at [-]-[-].
Yang Yang still came on as a substitute in the No. 70 minute. At that time, the overall situation of the team had been decided.
The venue for the final was arranged at the Schalke Stadium in Gelsenkirchen, Germany.
