Super Coach

All along, when facing Spain, the situation that Yang Cheng is most worried about is not being beaten by Spain, but conceding the ball first!

Facing a team like Spain is similar to facing Real Madrid. Conceding the ball first is a very scary and very passive ending.

Because once you concede the ball first, if you want to equalize or even reverse, then you have to adopt a more proactive offensive tactic. For the German team, the instability of the defense will be exposed during the attack. , this may allow Spain to seize the opportunity and score more goals.

Real Madrid scored so many big scores because their opponents were unconvinced and wanted to attack when they were behind!

Well, if you don't take the initiative to attack, how do you break through Spain's defense?

This Spanish team is really strong, very strong. Yang Cheng knew from the beginning that once the ball was conceded first, almost half of the game would be lost, and he did not expect that at the beginning of the game, he would lose the ball. With such a good performance, a mistake suddenly occurred before the end of the first half.

Yang Cheng slapped his forehead hard, and even in the crowded Lviv Stadium, Yang Cheng could hear a snap. The hard work and efforts of him and the players for 45 minutes were completely in vain.

What to do now? Paul Bayer had no idea.

The German team was originally not as strong as Spain, and now it is lagging behind. It is really difficult to equalize the score and reverse the situation. Moreover, the main forward Miroslav Klose also left the game due to injury, which undoubtedly makes the German team's prospects even worse.

Without Klose, there is no moving fulcrum in the frontcourt. Gomez is good, but at the tactical level, his role is not as obvious as Klose. The latter's playing style is becoming more and more demonic, which is surprising. It doesn’t matter if you don’t accept it. At this point, Gomez is still far behind. More experience and awareness is needed.

Stabilize the situation first! Yang Cheng said firmly.

He could predict it,

An offensive team like Spain that follows the stick will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to score goals and press forward in one go. A round of indiscriminate bombing of the German team. If the morale of the German team is affected by conceding a ball, or if the players are distracted, then it will not be a conceding goal, but more.

So Yang Cheng quickly calmed down and walked to the sidelines to remind the players to pay attention, and also told Jerome Boateng not to care too much about conceding the ball. Let Mertesacker not worry about losing the ball, and let Kelton look at these two teammates.

Now is not the time to hold people accountable. The game is still going on. If we hold people accountable now, wouldn't it cause internal strife in the German team? How will this game be played then?

Not to mention now, even after the game is over, Yang Cheng will not hold him accountable. On the contrary. He must proactively take over all responsibilities and prevent players from being under excessive pressure, otherwise the game will not be played.

Think about it sometimes. When the head coach is really struggling... During the halftime break, Yang Cheng received a piece of good news. Wolfart said that Klose's injury was not serious and he should be able to recover quickly after taking a rest, but not I know if I can make it in time for the game against Portugal.

In the locker room at halftime, Yang Cheng first praised the team's performance, believing that the team played the tactical style he wanted in the first half, which effectively weakened Spain's passing and threaten. But he also pointed out the team's shortcomings, especially in the final kick, which wasted a lot of opportunities.

Throughout the whole process, he never mentioned conceding the ball. He kept saying that the team would have a chance to take the initiative again.

what is interesting is. During the 15 minutes of the halftime break, the head coaches of the two teams did not change or make any adjustments. They still maintained the same set of tactics, but they did not continue the situation in the first half. It was obvious that after the midfielder After the break, the morale of the German team improved, and the players regained their fighting spirit and confidence in the game.

However, Spain still had obvious advantages in ball control and technology. The German team seemed relatively passive on the scene. In addition, Yang Cheng did not ask the team to attack, so the scene became a bit stalemate.

It seems that we can only wait now! Yang Cheng saw that Bosque, an old fox, was not taking risks at all, and he had no idea in his mind.

To be honest, Bosque is the kind of cautious head coach. This can be seen from the fact that he only won one goal against the opponent in many games. He is the cautious type, so it is not easy for him to win now. If he has the lead, he is naturally unwilling to expose his flaws easily and be caught and exploited by Yang Cheng.

In terms of game sense, Del Bosque is not as good as Yang Cheng, so all he can do is minimize loopholes and mistakes.

Benitez sighed deeply. All the German team can do now is wait and wait passively.

There is no way around it. If you go out to attack Spain, you are simply seeking death. The opponent has a ball in his hand and he is eager for you to go out and fight him. As soon as you go out, you will fall into his trap. So now the German team must Have to wait.

The majority of Spanish players are Real Madrid players, and Real Madrid players have played so many games in the past season, including La Liga, the Champions League, the Copa del Rey and the Club World Cup, plus the pre-season Spanish Super Cup and In the European Super Cup, although Yang Cheng's rotation system was extremely successful, by now, his physical fitness has been almost exhausted.

Although many people have said that Spain's playing style determines that their physical exertion is not very serious, but the first half of this game was dragged by the German team in such a fierce and fast attack. This Spanish team Their physical energy consumption is definitely not small, so Yang Cheng has to wait until their physical fitness is a little unable to keep up before making any fuss.

As for physical fitness, the German team has undergone high-intensity physical reserve training. Although they are not in full form now, they will definitely last longer than Spain. Yang Cheng is confident enough that he can at least use his physical fitness to defeat them.

The only suspense is whether the German team can wait until Spain's physical fitness cannot keep up.

So when the second half started, Spain was attacking very hard and the German team was a little embarrassed in defense. Yang Cheng replaced Podolski with Khedira and asked Ozil to play as the right winger, setting up a position to play in the back three. Waist tactics.

The three defensive midfielders have a greater protection range for the defense. Especially when the team shrinks its defense, it is more difficult for Spain to effectively send the ball into the German team's penalty area, although it has the initiative. But they were never able to find a way to break the German team again.

This is also determined by Spain's tactics. David Silva, Mata and Iniesta are all small and quick players. When Del Bosque uses them, he is destined to use ground penetration and coordination to advance. Complete the attack. Because no one can catch the ball if you throw it high. Do you still expect these three players, who are about 1.7 meters tall, to get the header over the heads of the German players who are over 1.8 meters and 1.9 meters tall?

Once you cooperate with ground penetration, you can only cut inside and advance through the middle. Therefore, the German team's shrinking defense can effectively limit the space, plus the three midfielders are placed in front. The defense suddenly became solid.

However, in this case, the scene will naturally not be as beautiful and hearty as it was after the opening... Shit, didn't this bastard say he looked down on the defense? I didn’t expect that he would be here today!

Mourinho was sitting in one of the stands on the west side of the Lviv Stadium. Seeing Yang Cheng also deploying a three-midfielder tactic, he seemed to be gloating. Because he felt that this seemed to be his own patent, and Yang Cheng, who had always claimed that he was a representative of offensive football, should not use such tactics.

Please, why are your words so bitter? Ferguson shook his head and laughed. How did he say he looked down on defense? Don't put the exaggerated words of the media on him. If your words get out, everyone will say you are jealous!

Am I jealous of him? Mourinho immediately became upset, Shit!

When Wenger saw Mourinho's expression, he shook his head with joy, feeling that the Portuguese's Achilles' heel was Yang Cheng.

No wonder, across Europe and England, everyone would have a headache, but there was nothing he could do against Yang Cheng. Originally, he had some thoughts of revenge, but now he has switched to the national team. No matter how well Mourinho performs in club competitions, everyone will only say that he is Yang Cheng's loser, and he has this title. Really.

The start was really amazing. His defensive counterattacks are much more proactive than yours. I think he must have found the German team's style! Ferguson said with admiration.

Quick and proactive defensive counterattacks can fully weaken the risks posed by the German team's defensive worries, and can bring out the advantages of the German team's offensive coordination. Coupled with the frontcourt press that he has always advertised, as long as he runs in Once it takes shape, the strength of this German team will be greatly improved.

Didn't you suffer from this kind of tactics back then? Mourinho said sarcastically.

Ferguson encountered Real Madrid led by Vicente Del Bosque in 2000. Real Madrid's 5-back tactic that year was actually this active defensive counterattack tactic. At that time, Manchester United drew Real Madrid 0:0 away from home, but then However, they lost 2:3 at home, which directly caused them to be eliminated from the Champions League by Real Madrid and lost the opportunity to challenge the Champions League.

Ferguson has always been brooding about this matter. If Mourinho didn't say anything, he would choose to suppress it. But now that the scars were revealed, he immediately became angry and blushed. It seemed that fly into a rage.

When you *** were in Barcelona, ​​when did you encounter Real Madrid, didn't you fall under Real Madrid's tactics? Haven't you ever suffered from him? Ferguson fought back, and many people recognized it, Real Madrid's tactics just restrained Barcelona's traditional tactics.

Oh, by the way, I remembered it. No wonder you weren't on the coaching staff back then!

Ferguson's words also made Mourinho unhappy. He had always told people that he was part of the Barcelona coaching staff, but in fact he was the translator. However, he personally always said that the translator also belonged to the coaching staff. Now he is being treated like this by Ferguson. Said, it is clear that it is a personal attack, this old guy is really impatient with life.

Seeing Mourinho's round eyes, Ferguson refused to give in. In the end, both of them snorted coldly, turned their heads, and simply stopped looking at him to avoid trouble.

Wenger couldn't stop laughing when he saw these two rivals acting like children.

I always feel that now he seems to be preparing for a defensive counterattack. He should be waiting! After all, he is also a famous coach. Wenger quickly saw Yang Cheng's intention, But what other backup plans does he have?

When it comes to football, both Ferguson and Mourinho suddenly became energetic again.

It's impossible for this guy to play like this without a backhand! Mourinho said looking very confident.

At least from what he knew about Yang Cheng, if there was no back-up plan, he might risk his life with Bosque now, but he wasn't too sure in his heart. Because it is the group stage now, the goal difference is very important, so if Yang Cheng tries to lose 0:1, it is not impossible.

He still has one chance to make substitutions. Del Bosque has three more chances, and the situation is not optimistic either! Ferguson shook his head.

In fact, the most unlucky thing about the German team in this game was Klose's end. It not only caused the German team to lose its main forward and wasted a substitution, but also disrupted the German team's start from the beginning. Momentum built on the road.

If Klose is not injured, the whole situation continues. Maybe Spain's attack wouldn't have scored.

But it's too late to say anything now. Now the situation is behind and the score is behind. Yang Cheng's situation looks terrible. The only thing that can change the situation of the game is the substitution he has on hand. But don't forget, Del Bosque is still behind. There were three substitutions.

The three people in the stands were obviously worried about Yang Cheng's situation, because now the German team has almost no advantage. It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to reverse the situation, unless Yang Cheng has some backup plans.

But even if there is a real back-up. It’s almost time to come out, because the game has already passed 65 minutes. If you don’t use it, it will be too late by then... Is it time to come out? Paul Bayer also thinks it should be on.

It actually takes a little time for substitutions in football matches to be effective, because football is different from basketball. The latter scores a lot of goals, but it is often difficult to score goals in football, so you must set aside some time.

Those so-called substitutions that turn the situation around and help the team score goals as soon as they come on the field. Luck accounts for a huge part of it.

Wait a minute! Yang Cheng also looked solemn. He knew better than anyone else when to make the substitution, but it wasn't the time yet, because from Tim Hank's data just now and his performance on the scene, what is seen. Spain is still alive, and Del Bosque has three substitutions to make.

As time gradually passed, the fans in the stands began to become unable to sit still, especially the fans of the German team. They began to shout the names of the players and Yang Cheng, hoping that they could do something to change the situation.

When the time reached the 68th minute, Spain made its first substitution, replacing Mata with Torres.

The latter has been struggling with the German team's defense throughout the game. He seems to be a little tired. His running is obviously much less, and his role is also very small. Replacing Torres is obviously to strengthen the offense.

There should be another substitution! Yang Cheng decided to wait after seeing Torres come on.

The player Torres came on the field at this time, certainly not for ground cooperation. Bosque was obviously worried about Yang Cheng's backup, so he wanted to further expand the score, so he replaced Torres, but in this case, he had to Someone needs to make a fuss on the wing, and whether it is David Silva or Iniesta, it is obviously not possible.

Sure enough, as if Yang Cheng was pinching him, 2 minutes after Del Bosque came on for Torres, Navas came on to replace Iniesta. The purpose of the Sevilla wing attacker coming on was very clear. The ball was kicked off the road and continued to put more pressure on the German team's defense.

Frankly speaking, Del Bosque's substitutions were very powerful, decisive and clear, but it is a pity that Yang Cheng was waiting for him to make substitutions.

In the 3rd minute after Navas came on the field, although the Spanish winger immediately got a breakthrough opportunity on the wing, Lahm firmly stuck in his position and destroyed the ball. The German team took advantage of this dead ball opportunity and used Badstuber replaced Ozil and asked Lahm to play as a right attacker.

This was almost a targeted move to force the Spanish team to make substitutions. Originally, Deisler had already gone to warm up, but Yang Cheng saw that after Del Bosque replaced Navas, he chose Bad Stuber. It was obviously for this purpose. Defending Navas further strengthens the stability of the defense, and Lahm can also create murderous opportunities on the wing, especially on the right, as he is right-footed.

Today's Spanish physical fitness has dropped a lot. The coordination of passing and receiving is obviously not as smooth as before, and the operation speed is not as fast as before. As soon as the German team made substitutions, they immediately launched the last round of counterattack, and the time was just right. That's at 76 minutes.

The German team's counterattack was fierce. Khedira intercepted the ball in the midfield and passed it to Lahm.

After Ram got the ball on the right, he immediately dribbled the ball along the wing at high speed and launched a counterattack. After attracting the attention of the defense, he passed the ball to Gomez, who shot slightly wide. .

But this attack also made people break into a cold sweat.

On the contrary, Spain wanted to attack on the right after the substitution. However, after Badstuber came on, he always maintained contact with Kyle. Coupled with the three defensive midfielders, the defense was very solid. Navas was in this position. The side never got a good chance to kick the ball, and Torres' role in the middle was seriously weakened.

Defend on one side and attack on the other. If you defend firmly, you can attack resolutely!

After Yang Cheng made the substitution, he could almost be said to be fighting tooth and nail. The German team's right wing Jérôme Boateng and Lahm formed a right attacking combination and frequently launched fierce attacks on Spain's left wing. Several counterattacks began to create threats.

When the game reached the 81st minute, the German team formed an attack on the right wing again, pressing the Spanish team's left wing. However, when facing Arbeloa, Lahm failed to form a breakthrough and could only pass the ball. The knock back went to Jerome Boateng.

The team's goal culprit had been holding back his anger and wanted to clear his name. As soon as he got the ball, he immediately noticed that the Spanish defense leaned heavily to the left, exposing the gap on the right, and Thomas Muller always He was wandering on that side, so he directly moved the ball to the right side of the Spanish defense with a big kick.

Thomas Muller stopped firmly after receiving the ball and dribbled the ball diagonally into the penalty area. Miguel Torres and Ramos rushed over immediately. Casillas also stood to the left immediately, trying to block the ball. Thomas Muller's shot angle.

But I saw that Thomas Muller was very calm. As soon as he entered the penalty area, he suddenly made an emergency stop, pulled out the space, and moved the ball horizontally. The ball was passed horizontally to Gomez who ran out of the gap and was unguarded. .

At this time, Gomez was facing a goal that was mostly unguarded, almost like facing an empty goal! (To be continued)RQ
