Chapter 306

It was the second time in three days that I came to this familiar mass sports stadium. The previous time was a friend, but this time it was an enemy.

The moment he walked out of the player tunnel, Sun Wu thought of the lyrics for no reason. When a friend comes, there is good wine. If the jackal comes, there is a shotgun to greet him...

But in the next moment, a tsunami of applause came, and the passionate words of the live broadcaster made the home fans stand up.

"What's coming out now is our former hero..."

"Best!"

From Wolfsburg to Schalke 04 were Magath and Pekarik, but only Sun Wu got the applause, and even 22 players appeared on the field. His applause was the loudest, even more than that of Wall Forsborg's ace Edin Dzeko was even louder.

Sun Wu hugged Rolf first, then whispered a few words to his former teammates one by one, and waved to the home fans beside the aisle.

I may not be able to remember everything in Blackburn back then, but I will definitely remember everything in Wolfsburg. It was here that I climbed from the bottom of the valley, and jumped from a genius to become the hottest young star in Europe .

But after the start of the game, Sun Wu immediately entered the state, calmly controlled the rhythm of the game, made steady backcourt passes, adventurous and imaginative frontcourt pass, unexpected sudden breakthrough... All these made Wall Forsborg fans are left with a sense of loss, something they've been able to appreciate every week for the last year...

In the 451 formation used by Wolfsburg in this game, Dzeko came forward alone, Ricardo Costa, Josue, and Gentner formed a three-back midfielder in the midfield, and Makoto Hasebe and Mimi on the wings. Simovic, this is almost a replica of Wolfsburg's sweep of Manchester United, except that Josue replaced Sun Wu who left the team.

Sun Wu glanced at Rolf on the sidelines and shook his head secretly. This is a very capable assistant coach, but he is not competent for the position of head coach.

In fact, Rolf made adjustments to this formation. Gentner's ability to run up and down is very strong, but this has become a clear move, and Magath must have arranged it.

Therefore, when attacking, Schaefer and Little on the two wings will advance significantly. In Sun Wu's view, this is no longer a full-back, but a wing-back. The appearance of the so-called wing-back position is often accompanied by Another football term, "three defenders".

When the two wings go forward at the same time, Ricardo Costa will recover his position and play as a central defender, while Barzagli and Simunek will be separated on both sides...

Sun Wu observed carefully for 10 minutes and found the biggest problem with this formation. When the formation is changed, the gap between the two ribs is very large... Rolf's design cannot be wrong, but the execution ability of the players In other words, this formation conversion requires players to have a very strong tactical understanding rather than intuition.

In the 32nd minute, Wolfsburg launched a counterattack. Josue tried to shake off Rakitic and sent a long pass. Ritter on the right was advancing at high speed, but Sun Wu, who knew Josue very well, Steal the ball with Rakitic.

"Wolfsburg's counterattack... no no, Best steals the ball!"

When Sun Wu took the ball, Schaefer and Little on the two wings had already advanced and ran across the center line, while Ricardo Costa was retreating.

Sun Wu did not pass the ball directly, but passed the ball to Rakitic, who took a step forward in the face of the rushing Gentner and stuffed the ball forward. Sun Wu took the ball again, but still did not pass the ball, and It started to rush towards the Wolfsburg penalty area.

"Two to one...Best dribbled the ball forward in the middle, and there was space on the two wings..." Adam Simpson was making a choice for Sun Wu, "Passing the ball...directly shooting is also fine."

Being counterattacked by the opponent in the process of counterattacking is fatal to any team, not to mention Sun Wu who is the thief who holds the ball...

Sun Wu chose to break through the middle, and aimed at Ricardo Costa who had just walked back. The Portuguese central defender had no choice but to push out. Kuranyi was running, and Simunek did not dare to leave. Barzagli goes to make up...

But at that moment, Sun Wu sent a cross, and Farfan on the right took the ball behind Barzali and waded into the penalty area to send a cross. Kuranyi easily pushed and scored the goal without any defense.

"Very relaxed, very relaxed, Best is too familiar with this Wolfsburg team, he used to control every detail of this team!" Adam Simpson even felt that this goal came a bit late, "Schäfer Barzagli thought he was a winger, he didn't care about the space behind him, and Barzagli's mobility couldn't compete with Farfan at all."

It was Farfan's sixth assist of the season and Kuranyi's ninth goal of the season.

Kuranyi, Farfan, and Rakitic were embracing and celebrating. Only Sun Wu walked back with his head down. He glanced at Rolf. I really don’t know what Rolf was thinking. The formation of three central defenders It's not like everyone can play well...

The next game gradually became flat, and Sun Wu and Rakitic controlled the rhythm of the game, which sharpened Wolfsburg's spirit a little bit.

It's not that Sun Wu deliberately wants to stop, but he is well aware of the game style of Wolfsburg's team. They are not good at attacking or defending, but they can capture opportunities under the premise of a very fast offensive and defensive transition. .

Until the 65th minute of the second half, Sun Wu continued to cooperate with Farfan and Pekarik on the right, and then sent the ball to Rakitic in the middle. , This goal sealed the victory.

Everyone else was celebrating, only Sun Wu was not satisfied. When everyone walked back, he pulled Rakitic and whispered: "The goal is beautiful, but the success rate is very low. In fact, Fuchs on the left side Already inserted..."

Rakitic shrugged. "But Gentner and Ricardo Costa are not in the position. It's a good opportunity."

Sun Wu shook his head and said emphatically, "But, Ivan, I think you can make more contributions to the team, organizing the midfield and sending the ball behind..."

"In other words, this goal is a reflection of your personal ability, not a reflection of the team's tactics."

Seeing Rakitic thinking, Sun Wu patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "Of course, it is your freedom to choose when to shoot. Not to mention me, even Felix has no right to dictate."

Rakitic nodded silently, with mixed feelings in his heart. As a player on the team second only to Sun Wu in terms of tactical thinking and ability to read the game, he was very deeply aware of Sun Wu's ubiquitous influence in the team organization.

For a player with pursuit and ambition, this is an incentive, a spur, and a goal to catch up.

But Sun Wu is lamenting that his long pass ability needs to be practiced again. In fact, after he made several passes and cuts from the right to attract the attention of Wolfsburg's defense line, left forward Sanchez has entered the penalty area, and Fukker Si is plugging in, and Sun Wu can actually choose to pass Fuchs directly.

Sun Wu remembered that this was a trick that Messi often used later, cutting inside to attract attention and suddenly making a long pass to find the left back Alba...
