"A little dizzy!"

“It’s easy to get tired!”

"A little out of breath!"

The capital of Armenia, Yerevan.

Dinamo Zagreb comes to participate in the first and second leg of the Champions League qualifying round.

They arrived three days in advance just to adapt to the environment here.

At an altitude of 1,500 meters, altitude sickness will not occur.

But under strenuous exercise, the low-oxygen environment prevents their bodies from absorbing enough oxygen.

This also leads to dizziness, fatigue, and breathlessness.

Of course, after some adjustments, they can recover.

But this environment still makes them feel very uncomfortable.

And this is the home field advantage of Yerevan Phoenix.

“Let them play football in Croatia where it’s snowing!”

Duimovich said with a grin.

Croatia's home advantage is mainly reflected in the winter.

During the introduction, heavy snowfall and cold weather will prevent many players from adapting to this environment.

And for them it has become a daily routine.

The same is true for Yerevan Phoenix.

They are adapted to the plateau competition environment, while Su Ke and others lack exercise for the low-oxygen environment.

"It's the first day now. Let's get used to it for two days. We scored four goals at home and it will be difficult for them to come back!"

Su Ke said; "As long as we formulate a good strategy and don't rush like before."

Everyone also nodded.

This environment is not completely unbearable, but it is not suitable for them to use high-position pressing.

And with a three-day buffer, they can adapt a little.

At an altitude of 1,500 meters, altitude sickness will not occur.

Although my head did feel a little heavy, it didn't have much impact.

Dinamo Zagreb trained for three days in a rented stadium.

They mainly adapt to the environment and formulate reasonable tactical configurations.

The tactics given by Besic are based on ball control.

Slow down the tempo and try to be as defensive as possible.

Suk felt that Besic was a little too concerned about face.

If he were to be the head coach, he would just put the bus on the line.

Defend the goal!

They have such a big lead at home anyway.

However, Besic disdained to set up a bus, but deployed a number of players with strong ball-holding abilities in the midfield.

Including Suker, Modric, Valevic, Duimovic and Vukojevic.

In the next game, Dinamo Zagreb will most likely play a 4-5-1 formation.

Increase the number of players in the midfield while ensuring the rhythm of the midfield.

Slow down the pace, contain the opponent, and also defend well.

"The goal of the next game is not to attack, but to control the rhythm while maintaining a stable defense, and try to keep the ball at our feet. Do you understand?"

Besic reminded the players.

Su Ke and others also nodded immediately.

For now, this is the style of play that suits them best.

July 26, Armenia’s capital, Yerevan.

This is a city located halfway up a mountain. Looking around, the majestic and undulating mountains in the distance stand there like giant dragons, and the snow-capped mountain pass towers into the clouds, which is extremely spectacular.

【Hanrapetakan Stadium】!

This is the stadium of Yerevan Phoenix, which in Malay form means ‘destroy’.

Yerevan Phoenix is ​​also hailed as a rule-breaking team by Armenian Super League teams. They are a bit too strong in the local league.

But at this time, Yerevan Phoenix, which was domineering in the Armenian Super League, was being fooled by Dinamo Zagreb.

"Dinamo Zagreb made continuous passes. They had no intention of rushing to attack and constantly controlled the ball and rhythm in the midfield."

"In this game, Besic placed all players with excellent ball control skills behind him in order to ensure the midfielder's ball-holding and passing abilities."

"Suker knocked the ball back to Srna again. Yerevan Phoenix's full-back Ducherovich was very irritated. Just as he was about to get close to Suker, Suker passed the ball, without giving him a chance to grab the ball. "

Ducherovich watched Suker's unhurried retreat.

From time to time, he makes cross passes or back passes, and at the same time moves into a new gap to catch the ball again.

Not just Su Ke, others also did the same thing.

They have no intention of attacking forward at all, they are just passing the ball and walking the opponent.

Through solid and excellent basic skills, they did not lose the ball and their passing was extremely stable.

"Damn it!"

Gamal Yakuhan saw that the game time had reached 40 minutes.

The first half almost ran out of time.

"Dinamo Zagreb were very patient and they showed a completely different tactical style from the previous game."

"In the last game, they were as passionate as fire, but this time they are as calm as water."

“Two completely different styles, but these young guys executed them extremely well.”

"They can play fierce offense, and at the same time, they can calm down, stabilize the situation, maintain rhythm and control the passing of the ball despite environmental problems!"

"Many people say that Dinamo Zagreb is a team of geniuses whose strong personal abilities make them omnipotent. I agree with the former, but their most powerful weapon is not their personal abilities, but this A seamless wholeness!”

"Look! Their passing! Their movements! It's as if they were measured with a ruler, precise and natural!"

"The first half is almost over, aren't Yerevan Phoenix ready to press?"

Seeing Yerevan Phoenix's vigilant look, Kraussiewicz shook his head and said; "In the last round, they were afraid of being kicked and did not dare to press! And this also made Dinamo Zagreb less able to play the game. The delay and the purposefulness of the ball!”

The first half ended and the intermission came.

"How about it?"

"good!"

Suk breathed out: "Keep the heart rate at a normal level and do not take too drastic movements. This can reduce the feeling of dizziness."

Others also nodded.

Besic breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Very good, keep going in the second half."

Their purpose in this game is to delay.

In the second half, Yerevan Phoenix became more active.

Maybe they understood that just staring would only make them sit back and wait for death, so they began to press fiercely.

However, it was still difficult for them to steal the ball from Dinamo Zagreb.

Even after grabbing the ball, Dinamo Zagreb was able to react instantly, drop back and start setting up their defense.

Yerevan Phoenix watched the time passing by, and the entire team became even more violent.

Gamal Yakuhan anxiously made a breakthrough on the wing.

He believes that he needs to attack the defense line and bring a breakthrough to the team.

But Dinamo Zagreb suppressed the cutting position, and Srna and Modric were always able to snatch the ball back from his feet.

"Take care of me! Where is the person who takes care of me!"

Gamal Yakuhan roared indignantly.

If his teammates don't support him, it's hard for him to sing alone!

On the field, Dinamo Zagreb returned to the state of controlling the ball.

The Phoenix of Yerevan pounced again and again.

Then it is consumed again and again.

In this stadium called ‘Destroy’, they became the ones who were destroyed.

".This way the game will be over."

"Dinamo Zagreb! What a terrible team. They have shown two different styles. They have kept the ball possession rate at 79% so far. One of them controls the ball and delays Time, and faced with Dinamo Zagreb’s delaying tactics, Yerevan Phoenix was completely powerless to parry.”

During the game, Suker passed the ball to Rakitic.

This guy is always ready to make a move.

After Su Ke passed the ball, he nuzzled in the direction of attack.

Rakitic's eyes lit up and he immediately dribbled forward.

It’s not that I’m undisciplined!

This was instigated by Su Ke!

Rakitic's sudden forward move caught Yerevan Phoenix off guard.

They quickly outflanked Rakitic on the right wing, trying to limit Rakitic from approaching the dangerous area.

Mandzukic has defenders next to him and cannot pass the ball.

Valevic failed to get forward.

"left?"

Rakitic turned his head and looked over, and sure enough, he saw that Suker had begun to advance at high speed.

At this moment, Rakitic didn't hesitate at all.

Bigfoot pass!

The ball flew high and fell towards the back point.

And at that position, Su Ke had already reached it.

Looking at the ball that landed on the ground, Su Ke jumped slightly, turned sideways in the air, and hit the ball hard with the instep of his left foot. The ball immediately flew into the goal.

The scene suddenly became quiet.

"Goal scored!!!"

"Suke!! The sudden change of pace makes Yerevan Phoenix completely unpredictable!"

"Rakitic's pass accurately found Suker who was advancing from behind. Suker's volley in the air was also very exciting!"

“In the 84th minute, Dinamo Zagreb took advantage of a wonderful change of pace to score the game-killing goal!”

The entire stadium was silent.

Yerevan Phoenix fans looked at this scene blankly.

Even though they knew they had lost.

But they didn't expect that at the last moment, Su Ke would give them a stabbing blow.

"It's over! The game is completely over!"

"Let us congratulate Dinamo Zagreb, who defeated Yerevan Phoenix 5:0 in two rounds and successfully advanced to the second round of the Champions League qualifying round!"

With this goal, there was no suspense in the game.

The Yerevan Phoenix players also looked frustrated.

They wanted to use home field advantage to comeback.

But unexpectedly, they were held back by Dinamo Zagreb, and they even scored an away goal at the last minute.

Now, Yerevan Phoenix has no chance at all.

In fact, when halftime ended, many players had already determined this fact in their hearts.

Yerevan Phoenix from Armenia, they stopped in the first round of the Champions League qualifying round.

Dinamo Zagreb successfully advanced to the second round of the Champions League qualifying round with its outstanding performance.
