Chapter 50 So Many Guards?
Seeing the team's starting lineup, the fans were all quiet. Is this a fucking mistake?They even forgot to cheer, just looking forward to the team announcing that the player was on the wrong set.

Uncle Mateo roared, "I've been watching football for 50 years, and this is the first time I've seen such a starting lineup. Where are the frontcourt players?"

"Jiangshan is crazy, he must be crazy. Is there no one on the team?"

"I've seen the result of the game. We're going to lose. Huh... The poor German Cup was given up by Jiangshan."

"I can't be reconciled. I only defeated Bayern in the last game. Now I have to give up the victory." The fans lamented everywhere.

The head coach of Bochum, Noel, thinks that he has followed many Hoffenheim games and has a certain understanding of Hoffenheim's formation. Although Jiangshan occasionally makes a dangerous move of 352, most of the time he switches between 433 and 4321, so he will not mess around.

But what happened today?Jiangshan's formation has changed again, no surprise, 442 formation, not to mention a rather traditional formation.

But what happened to the arrangement of personnel?Oh my god!

"I can't see through, this guy, what's going on in his head? Why are there defenders on the field?"

Hoffenheim's player arrangement is very special, 442 formation, half of the defenders.

The back line is lined up, Kai, Hunter, Insdom and Staval, the midfield four, the two wingers turned out to be Pandel and Ram, they are two full backs!

The two players in the middle of the midfield are Lahn and Hitzlsperger. On the forward line, Jiangshan has arranged a central defender.The young Huth actually started the game, a crazy move.

With Huth and Kuranyi, what does Jiang Shan want to do?
Seven defenders?Is Hoffenheim a defender surplus?It's fine to have a seven-back formation, but they have the luxury of leaving captain Dorante and winger Didick on the bench.Absolutely is intentional.

Ruo Yilu took the initiative to shake hands with Jiang Shan, "I really don't understand your formation. You should focus on the league, right?"

"When the game is over, you will understand my arrangement." Jiang Shan smiled, like meeting old friends.

The fourth round of the German Cup has officially begun.

The Bochum team took the initiative to attack, but unexpectedly, the pass in the center was difficult to penetrate this lineup. They could not hit the edge of Hoffenheim's penalty area at all, and could only turn the ball frequently to the side.

But the flanks are not fun either. Bochum's two speedy wingers also met their opponents. Hoffenheim's two speedy wingers, no, the fullbacks, even if they break through, there are still two defenders behind them!

How to play?
Soon after the opening, the attack of the Bochum team was immediately contained, and the scene was gradually controlled by Hoffenheim.

Jiang Shan looked at Tuchel and praised him, "You have trained well these few days, and my thoughts have come out."

Tuchel gave him a blank look, "Please, are you leading the team for training these days, okay? Who knows what you want to do?"

"Then why don't you take the initiative to praise me? Do you want me to teach you even this kind of thing? How will you lead the team in the future?" Jiang Shan teased, "You just don't know how to communicate with the boss, and you will be fired one day."

"If I had your strong communication ability, I would have done it by myself. Hmph! But now I have stolen this trick from you."

"Young man, you still have a lot to learn!"

Tuchel touched his half-bald head, who is young?You are young.The soul is weak.

On the field, Hoffenheim's defenders were fully spread out, covering the field. The distance between the two players was kept very good, as measured, and the back line raised and retreated, almost on a horizontal line.

The distance between the defense line and the midfield is very tight, no more than 25 meters, as if it had been specially measured. If Jiang Shan did not draw a line on the field, the players would not be able to maintain such a good sense of distance.

The center is compact and the players are relatively concentrated. It is almost impossible for the Bochum team to break through the center, and there is no space for them to break through.There is no Maradona in their team, let alone Messi, so it is impossible to appear domineering in Longtan alone.

The Bochum team is depressed!Originally, he thought about playing Kai's weakness, but he didn't expect Jiangshan to hide him. He couldn't hit him, penetrated from the middle, and was directly intercepted.

After Hoffenheim's counterattack, their defense couldn't hold on.

Going sideways is the only option.

Jiang Shan looked at the situation on the field and kept thinking, "Make full use of the space, the team has done it for the time being, but the high press has not been done yet, otherwise this lineup will be enough to hit the mid-tier in the Bundesliga."

"Mr. Sacchi's football concept really has quite strong characteristics. Now Mourinho should start thinking about this strategy?" Jiang Shan thinks very far, and will definitely meet Mu Niao and Ancelotti when he lands in the top league in the future.

What is his reliance?player?Or tactical features?
The oppressive style of play not only oppresses the opponent in defense, but also oppresses in offense.

Hoffenheim's attack, the rhythm is not fast, gradually moving up, like a tide, coming together, and it can't be stopped.

The ball reached Bochum's half, and Hoffenheim's defense appeared near the center line. The backcourt was empty, and Wiese followed suit, walked out of the penalty area, and looked at his teammates in the frontcourt.

Weize stood alone in his own half, feeling unreal, "This is our seven-guard lineup? It's terrible pressure."

The media at the scene were even crazier. It was the first time they had seen such a game. The staff arrangement before the game was ignored.

But what the hell is going on now?Everyone in the other half?Look at Wei Ze, it's really pathetic.

Clap, bang, bang... The reporters kept pressing the shutter, and Weiser was treated like a superstar.In the entire backcourt, only he is the focus.

Jiangshan is still dissatisfied, now only possession of the ball, no threat, is the same as no possession of the ball, possession of the ball is not a winning percentage, it has to be converted into a goal.

"The players are not capable enough, and there is no way to suddenly change the rhythm of the game. The sudden change of rhythm is the key to scoring goals."

Lahm failed to break through, shifted to the left, the ball fell to Pandel's feet, Pandel went down, missed a pass, looped into the penalty area, and even changed the rhythm of the field, and even the positioning of the defensive players was messed up by him.

This is the opportunity.

Pandel didn't choose to shoot, but picked up the ball and looked for Fangfang's face, which was so easy to recognize.

Huth met the ball and hit the goal.

In the 17th minute, Hoffenheim suddenly changed the rhythm and changed the score.

1:0.Hoffenheim lead.

Nuo Yilu's eyes widened, as if he had forgotten to be behind, and only shock was left in his heart, "The change of rhythm under oppression is simply miraculous."

"I seem to only see this kind of feeling in Milan in the early 90s. Could it be that Jiangshan was the wingman of the Three Musketeers?" He looked at the calm Jiangshan, unlike him. Although he was mature, it was impossible for him to join that Milan team.
