Super Coach

There is a saying that is right, don't be afraid of opponents who are like gods, but be afraid of teammates who are like pigs.

Flowers must always be accompanied by green leaves, and the protagonist must be supported by a supporting role.

Ronaldinho was like a duck in water at Real Madrid, responding to everything at once. At least in Yang Cheng's entire tactical system, he was able to get very clear tactical instructions. He knew exactly what he should do and what he should do, without having to be in such a dilemma like now. , completely lost myself.

Real Madrid's players are all very talented, which makes Ronaldinho's cooperation with them very smooth. After a long period of cooperation, everyone has a tacit understanding and familiarity with each other, and can often guess what the other party is going to do with just a look and movement. .

But it is obvious that in the Portuguese national team, Ronaldinho cannot get everything he has in Real Madrid.

The first is his partner. The forward line has always been Portugal's weakness. Ever since Pauleta, Portugal's forward line has always been a huge problem. Some people may think that Pauleta himself is not a top shooter. At least he hasn't proven himself in the competition, but Pauleta's scoring efficiency is at least there, and his tactical contribution to this team is also indelible, right?

But after Pauleta, Postiga obviously did not have the strength to hold up Portugal's front line. This made Portugal unable to build a complete offensive system since Pauleta.

Without the forward, without the sharp knife at the front, the system would be impossible to talk about!

There is also the decline in the overall strength of the team. Before, Portugal had Maniche, Deco and other famous players guarding it, but now Portugal has a midfield composed of Moutinho, Meireles and Veloso. Not to mention their strength, we can see the combat capabilities of these players from their reputation.

So in this game, the German team's tactics are really simple. Pinch the Portuguese midfielder, trap Moutinho, Meireles and Veloso, and completely suppress your midfielder. How do you advance the ball? They can only rely on full-backs and long passes to plan the attack, bypassing the midfield as much as possible.

Such a style of play is not suitable for Ronaldinho, Postiga and Nani.

Facing a team like the German team with excellent frontal defense capabilities, it really doesn't have much effect. Especially once the situation is contained, he immediately appears very passive.

Logically speaking, Portugal's forward problem did not just arise today. Paulo Bento has already made it very clear before. In his tactical positioning, forwards have never been an important offensive point for the team, but are similar to cannon fodder players. . Responsible for connecting the left and right wings, that is to say, Postiga's task is to be able to connect Ronaldinho and Nani.

But Hummels's performance in this game was really cheating. Time and time again, Postiga was so frustrated that he didn't even have the chance to successfully win the ball. Time and time again, he defused Portugal's offense. In addition, with Kyle Sitting behind him, Hummels dared to move forward again and again to cut off the connection between Ronaldinho and Nani. Let them fight on their own.

Well, once the left and right lose their response, the connection between the front and back is cut off. Portugal's entire tactical layout was cut into several pieces. Ronaldinho could only fight alone in the front. He would be an organizer at one moment, and rush to the front as a terminator at another, unless he was wearing underwear. Superman, otherwise, who could withstand such a torment?

So during the halftime break, Ronaldinho was in the locker room and put forward his thoughts to the head coach Paulo Bento. He thought the head coach was here at this time. Clear task requirements should be given to the team's players, including himself, to see how the game is going to be played and what his thinking is.

Paulo Bento also made adjustments, allowing Coentrando on the left to move forward actively to help Ronaldinho. Provide support to this superstar and allow Ronaldinho to launch offensive methods from the front with confidence.

It must be said that Xiao Luo's strength is definitely super strong. This guy is really tough. Don't expect to be able to guard against him alone.

At the beginning of the second half, Portugal, which was at a disadvantage, immediately launched a round of attacks.

This time, Ronaldinho, who was a powerful offensive point, got a chance to get the ball in the 46th minute. He quickly dribbled the ball from the left. When facing Jerome Boateng one-on-one, this kid's speed Already up, he ducked and cut inside. The whole movement was very beautiful and clean, and he directly dodged Jerome Boateng.

Hummels' performance in this game was indeed outstanding. As soon as he saw Ronaldinho speeding up, he was already aware of the danger, because Yang Cheng mentioned in his tactical preparations that Ronaldinho's threat is mainly reflected When he is moving, especially when moving at high speed, he already has an extra mind.

As soon as Ronaldinho got out of the way of Jérôme Boateng, Hummels blocked it immediately, forcing the Portuguese to shoot directly without getting an effective ball point, but this time The shot was not powerful, but the angle was correct, but it only gave Neuer an advantage and gave the latter one more stat.

When the Portuguese superstar walked back, he was obviously saying something to Coentrao behind him. Three minutes later, he once again got a chance to break through from the left, but this time Ronaldinho chose to lead along the wing. The ball broke through, and after using the speed to force an overtaking but failed, he knocked back to Coentrao, who got the ball and kicked off directly at the edge of the penalty area.

Hummels flew to block Coentrao's shot again, blocking the ball and turning it into a corner kick, but Portugal's corner kick failed to gain any advantage from the German team... There is only one Cristiano Ronaldo is not enough! Yang Cheng saw all this on the sidelines. He believed that Xiao Luo must have deeply felt at this moment what it means to be alone and unable to sing, because that's how he is!

Now Portugal's offensive and morale are getting better, we must suppress him!

Yang Cheng realized the problem. If Portugal is allowed to continue attacking like this, they will gradually change the rhythm and situation of the game. This will be very detrimental to the German team, so the best way is to suppress this threat before it becomes stronger. Before, it was nipped in the bud.

Let Khedira and Bastian Schweinsteiger move forward, keep an eye on Moutinho and Veloso, especially Moutinho, and let Portugal go more to Veloso's side! Yang Cheng immediately made adjustments.

Everyone who has played FM Football Manager knows this player Veloso. Yang Cheng also liked to play FM Football Manager in his previous life. He also knew this Portuguese monster. At that time, he felt strange. How could a world-class defensive midfielder be so good? No one likes it? Are all European scouts blind?

Wait until he actually coaches a team. After truly understanding Veloso's playing style, he truly realized that a game is still a game after all, but the reality is very cruel. There are many things that can be seen in reality, but cannot be reflected in game data.

Veloso is an interesting player, he is strong, has a good header, can read the game well, passes the ball very well, and has a good ability to score goals. He won a lot of praise as soon as he debuted, but he is a bit strange. He has some defensive ability, but not a sweeper. He is a bit technical, but does not have the organization and passing ability required by the organizing midfielder.

In Yang Cheng's view, one of the most important factors hindering his development is actually his slowness.

Slow to get the ball. Slow ball delivery has become the biggest taboo for a midfield passer in modern football tactics. Because if you are slow, it will directly cause the team's entire offensive and defensive transition to be slow, which is a big taboo.

So it can be seen that among the three most talented midfielders in Portugal, Veloso became famous the earliest, but is still in Portugal. Moutinho also became famous early and was compared with De Kobe, but because of his weak physical resistance, , also stayed in Portugal. But it was Meireles who developed better and directly joined a wealthy team and performed very well.

Yang Cheng said that he should keep an eye on Moutinho, which actually means to further amplify Moutinho's weak confrontation characteristics and weaken his role. At the same time, as long as Moutinho suffers a setback, Portugal will naturally turn to Veloso's side. At that time, Veloso's slow ball delivery will also be exposed.

Yang Cheng's adjustment quickly bore fruit. The German team quickly suppressed Portugal again, especially in the midfield, completely suppressing the momentum of Portugal's three midfielders and allowing Portugal's trident to change again in the front. It's hard to sing with a single palm.

In the 68th minute, Sven Bender successfully intercepted the ball and passed it to Bastian Schweinsteiger. Portugal counterattacked. After the little pig advanced quickly with the ball, he passed it to the left and handed it to Ozil.

At this time, Coentrao had not returned from his forward assist, and Alves had no choice but to make up for it. However, Ozil dribbled the ball to the center and passed the high point of the penalty area with his left foot. Gomez was seizing the position and could not squeeze out Pepe. , when blocked by the opponent, he chose to head the ball to the back point.

Thomas Muller inserted into the penalty area from the left, and with no one to defend him, he made a steady shot of Gomez's pass and sent the ball directly into the goal guarded by Patricio. , 2:0!

After scoring the goal, the German teenager turned around excitedly and rushed out of the penalty area. He rushed to the sidelines and jumped up high, waving his hands in fists. This was his first goal of this European Cup, and it was also the first goal of the German team in this game. The second goal can almost be said to have set the situation in advance.

The on-site commentator was no longer as passionate about this goal as he was when he scored in the first half. In his opinion, Portugal was suppressed by the German team throughout the game and was scored again. That was Sooner or later, it would be weird if he didn't score.

Everyone knows that Portugal's biggest advantage is their number one superstar Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese left winger's performance in Real Madrid was simply phenomenal, but when he came to Portugal, he felt like he was heavy. , every sprint seems to be dragging the entire team to sprint, causing him to lose the sharpness he had when he was at Real Madrid, the kind of intimidating power of lightning tearing through the night sky.

After adjusting in the second half, Portugal launched a counterattack. Ronaldinho recovered the ball and his performance several times, but he was quickly pushed back. This is really puzzling. Paul Bento's tactics are Isn’t it really designed and arranged around Xiao Luo?”

Soon, Portugal made its first substitution adjustment, replacing Postiga with Oliveira. It was obvious that he wanted to use the former to connect the midfielder and the front line, and Oliveira came on. It also immediately played a key role.

In the 73rd minute, Portugal launched a counterattack. Pepe found Oliveira, who passed a diagonal pass from behind in the middle and accurately found Ronaldinho on the left. The latter dribbled the ball into the penalty area at high speed. Later, facing Jérôme Boateng's close pressing that quickly returned to defense, he reluctantly took off, but his shot from close range was saved by Neuer, who reacted very quickly.

This attack failed to work. Ronaldinho looked very depressed. He seemed to be mumbling something while walking back, and he seemed unhappy in his heart because he actually didn't catch the pass given by Oliveira just now. Comfortable.

At Real Madrid. He is very comfortable catching the ball because David Silva, Kaka and Iniesta behind him can always pass the ball to his step point, so that he does not have to slow down to catch the ball, but Olivier After all, La is not the kind of creative passer. He passes the ball while looking at others, which makes Ronaldinho's speed unable to be used effectively.

But no matter what, Xiao Luo finally got a chance. It's just that these opportunities look terrible.

In the final analysis, Portugal's offensive advancement itself has serious problems!

Yang Cheng was on the sidelines, watching his beloved disciple walking back in vain again and again. He felt very uncomfortable in his heart. At least he knew clearly what the problem was. Maybe Paul Bento knew it too, but it was just He didn't find the right solution and probably didn't have the right person.

In Portugal's entire tactical system. The forward line is strong enough, the midfield is strong enough at the back, and the defense doesn't have many problems. The biggest problem is that the midfielder is far forward, which is the attacking midfielder area in the traditional sense, and lacks an assister who can pass creative passes.

Many people have said that Ronaldinho seems very selfish in the national team, but this is relative, and even to a certain extent, his selfishness is forced out by the team and himself.

Yang Chengji clearly understands this kid's personality. Playing in an environment like Portugal where there are problems with ball propulsion, he has to come back to catch the ball and wait for his teammates to pass the ball. Then he has to dribble the ball forward himself. The whole process is handled by himself, so he doesn't care about the last shot, not to mention that in Portugal's tactical system, his duty is the terminator.

Any prolific shooter or outstanding scorer must have a group of teammates behind him to provide him with huge support. Provide him with a steady stream of opportunities so that he can score goals and develop his offensive talents. If he has to do everything by himself, no one will become the World Footballer.

Therefore, in this game, Yang Cheng pinched Portugal's seven inches from the beginning, and he grabbed the seven inches from the beginning of the whole game without any relaxation, which directly contributed to the two goals of the German team. ball, and at the same time completely suppressed Portugal throughout the game.

It can be said that this is a scoring game. If more goals can be scored, it will be even more perfect.

After the time entered the 75th minute, Yang Cheng made two substitutions, one with Toni Klose for Bastian Schweinsteiger, one with Badstuber for Kyle, two substitutions. They were all obviously heading for rotation.

It can be seen that Yang Cheng is already sure of winning this game!

In fact, Portugal is indeed unlikely to pose much of a threat to the German team anymore. At least after the German team scored again, we can see that Portugal has gradually lost its final fighting spirit, Paul? Bento is not even ready to make any more substitutions.

When the game reached the 80th minute, Yang Cheng made another substitution, replacing Ozil on the right with veteran Deisler. This was also Deisler's first appearance in this European Cup. As soon as he came on the field, he passed a very high-level cross from the right, but Gomez's header was saved by Patricio.

And Dessler once again took a very high-level corner kick, but it was a pity that Hummels took it a little too high this time.

Both passes can see Deisler's profound passing skills, and both won applause and cheers from all the German teams present, because for a long time in the past, Deisler has been the best player in German football. One of the players that fans appreciate.

Three substitutions, two trainings for young players, and one satisfaction for veterans. Yang Cheng completely defeated Paulo Bento tactically. The German team also completely defeated the Portuguese in the game. This was an all-round victory.

With this victory, the German team scored 3 points and jumped from the bottom of the group to the second place in the group. Portugal and France each scored 1 point. The German team's qualifying situation has also become clear. As long as they If we win the French team in the last round, they can qualify from the group.

In this game, Portugal's performance was indeed a bit disappointing, because except for Ronaldinho's several shining points based on his own strength, there is nothing overly impressive about this team. On the contrary, the German team, Gomez and Jerome Boateng, who performed poorly in the first game, both showed convincing strength in the second game.

The overall performance of the German team today is even better than when they played Spain in the first game. Their offense and defense are also relaxed and they always control the game situation steadily. People are very reassured about them. They no longer have the ability to play anytime and anywhere in the past. Everyone was worried about the defense being attacked and counterattacked, but Yang Cheng’s team performed convincingly in this game.”

If you just rely on this game alone, the strong strength of the German team will indeed make people see their championship appearance, but if the German team wants to go further in this European Cup, they will undoubtedly need to This state can be maintained for a longer time. Only in this way can they rekindle the hope of winning the European Cup again! (To be continued) RQ
