Super Coach

Someone once made some similar summaries, hoping to put all the teams that Yang Cheng has coached together and summarize them to find out that these teams all have common characteristics or have any outstanding features.

In the end, they came to a lot of conclusions, which naturally included the emphasis on running without the ball and the emphasis on offense. Among them, the emphasis on offense. If it is broken down further, there is another point that all teams have. Then Just good at finding loopholes.

Many people feel that Yang Cheng's team's offense is not a ball-possession offense similar to Barcelona's, nor is it purely for offense like Argentina's current offense, but a very targeted offense. If there are loopholes, create loopholes, and if there are loopholes, you will seize them and fight for them. This is a typical characteristic of Yang Cheng's team's offense.

Just like this time, when the German team finally created a loophole in Argentina, they immediately seized this loophole and fought hard, fighting desperately, not giving Savilla's team a chance to breathe and adjust.

After scoring the first goal, the German team did not relax its offensive at all. Instead, it continued to pursue Argentina's defense and launched a fierce attack, especially in the area of ​​​​grabbing the midfielder. At one point, the German team frequently created problems. As long as Banega left his position a little bit, the German team would try every means to pull Mascherano away, and then seize the defensive vacuum created by Mascherano's departure. Come and fight.

Yang Cheng once said that to test the strength of a team, you don't need to look at other things, but the team's adaptability and speed at the moment of transition between offense and defense. This is definitely the best reflection of a team's strength.

Argentina's formation is loose and lacks overall coordination. As the team's organizing midfielder, Banega lacks positional awareness and defensive awareness. Therefore, the division of labor and coordination between him and Mascherano has always been in Savilia's mind. It hurts, and the German team repeatedly took advantage of this in this game.

Less than 10 minutes had elapsed since the first goal, and the German team created two threatening opportunities at the front of Argentina's penalty area. This also caused everyone in Argentina to break out in a cold sweat. Everyone was thinking about filling this loophole, but problems still occurred repeatedly.

Just like this time, when Toni Kroos was forced to the right sideline by Mascherano and Di Maria, everyone thought that the German team's offense was coming to an end, but the Bayern midfielder But he passed the ball to Podolski, who once again passed the ball to the center.

Thomas Muller moved to the center. But it also drew Zabaleta into the middle as Savilia made adjustments. He has to guard against Thomas Muller. But when Zabaleta reached the center, Lahm drove straight in from the left. Bastian Schweinsteiger passed the ball diagonally to Lahm accurately, allowing the latter to sprint directly through Argentina's defense.

After Lahm got the ball on the left, he saw Fernandez rushing out of the penalty area when the German captain wanted to pass. But Fernandez tripped him to the ground.

Ram, who was so fast, fell out. The referee also gave Fernandez a yellow card and gave the German team an indirect free kick from the left side of the penalty area... Wow. I really thought we didn’t have a free kick master!

Yang Cheng stood on the sidelines. After seeing the team win a free kick, he shook his head and laughed. This position is very good, really very good, because taking a free kick here is equivalent to directly getting a chance to cross. If the center can keep up, it will directly lead to a header.

So after getting the free kick, Yang Cheng rushed towards Jerome Boateng, Hummels, Badstuber, Sven Bender and others in the backcourt. Strong men, all over 1.85 meters tall, suddenly swarmed into Argentina's penalty area.

***, we can be considered Northern Europe after all. Although we are now more literary and artistic, don't mistake handsome guys for macho men! Yang Cheng grinned maliciously, because relatively speaking, the heights of Argentina's players are really Sad and devastated.

As soon as the German team's group of strong men rushed into the penalty area, Argentina's players seemed to be in a jungle of towering old trees. The only three defenders who could still stand out were three defenders, but the German team was full of strong men. They are also hard to beat with four hands.

They've got a headache! Benitez saw Savilia loudly instructing the players to mark people. He was obviously frightened by the rich and handsome players in the German team, and he felt very satisfied.

You're too cruel, and you don't take care of other people's feelings! Paul Bayer was also extremely excited.

In the past few years, Yang Cheng has coached Real Madrid, and this team is very easy to suffer losses at this time, so everyone in their team is very depressed about this situation, and now they can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Because he knew that his team was weak in free kicks before, Yang Cheng specially practiced free kick coordination routines. Among them, his biggest bargaining chip was the group of rich and handsome men in his hands, and this time Argentina happened to hit the gun. .

I saw Toni Kroos walking to the penalty spot on the left, placing the ball, and slowly retreating. The penalty area was already in chaos. Every Argentine player looked like they were facing a formidable enemy and stared at this. They are a group of tall guys, because even Thomas Muller, Podolski and Bastian Schweinsteiger are all over 1.8 meters tall, and their header ability is not bad, so they cannot be ignored.

As the referee blew his whistle, Toni Kroos ran forward quickly and kicked the ball.

This kick looked more like a cross than a free kick, and the penalty area had already turned into a meat grinder.

The Argentinian players stared at the German team players one by one as if facing a formidable enemy. The two tall central defenders were responsible for watching the two high points of the German team, the front and middle points, and it seemed that the German team's This group of players also focuses on attacking the front point, so Fernandez stands at the front point.

But Toni Kroos's cross was extremely fast. Passing over everyone's heads, he quickly fell straight to the back point. At this time, the Argentine players realized that Gomez, who was ambushing him at the back point, jumped up high and faced the winning ball with a diving leap. Rushing over the top, he headed the ball directly into Argentina's goal... The commentator on the scene shouted loudly.

Gomez after heading the ball into Argentina's goal. The whole person also fell to the ground, but he quickly got up from the ground, quickly rushed out of the penalty area, rushed out of the stadium, and celebrated his fourth goal in this World Cup.

In the 32nd minute, the German team took advantage of an indirect free kick in the frontcourt, and Mario Gomez scored another victory for the German team. 2:0, the German team completely controlled the situation of the game. Gained a huge advantage !”

All the German players rushed to the sidelines. Gomez, who was shouting loudly, celebrated the goal. This goal also declared Argentina's death sentence, because with the German team's defensive ability, Argentina wanted to score two goals in the hands of the Germans, but failed. The possibility of being scored by the German team is so high that even the Argentinians themselves may not dare to dream about it.

All the Argentinian fans in the stands lowered their heads. They couldn't imagine why they lost the ball so easily?

Perhaps. When Argentina was arranging set-piece defense, they felt that Gomez's header ability was not strong. So they were a bit negligent. But who would have thought that the German team's main attack point would still be this one that seems not to be good at headers. Forward of the ball!”

Relatively speaking, Klose's header ability is definitely better than Gomez, because this is already a major scoring weapon for Klose, so if Klose is the forward in this game, Argentina will definitely win. We will pay attention to it, but Gomez...it is indeed easy for people to ignore his header scoring ability.

This is not surprising, because so many tall players rushed into the penalty area at once. Argentina does lack manpower in man-to-man marking, and the German team has adopted a posture of focusing on attacking the front points. Argentina uses good steel in The strategy on the blade must focus on keeping an eye on Hummels, Jerome Boateng and Badstuber.

Sometimes, you think these guys are not good at heading the ball. For example, Jerome Boateng and Bad Stuber are not good at heading the ball. But the problem is, the height of these guys is No, if the ball is passed well, they don't need a great header. As long as they can grab the point, they basically have the ball.

After all, the position given by this indirect free kick is too good...the soldiers are unpredictable, and the water is unpredictable.

Yang Cheng has always felt that everything on the football field is fluid, so he named his tactical book Mobile Football Field. The meaning is very clear, which is to remind everyone that the football field is mobile. .

Tactics are all about flow and flow, and this is not just a casual talk.

Just like in this game, the German team played against Argentina. It seemed to be going smoothly. The German team was very lucky. Argentina's performance and response were too bad, especially the on-the-spot command of head coach Sabilia. It was really like this ?

Yang Cheng can guarantee that Savilia must have reminded Banega and Di Maria more than once on the sidelines that they must pay attention to providing protection and assistance to Mascherano, but why did they still let Mascherano do it again and again? What about Scherano being alone?

The reason is very simple, the problem does not lie with them!

Sven Bender's position and responsibilities are a key for Yang Cheng to limit Messi, because Messi's position is between the attacking midfielder and the forward. If he wants to hit the gap between the central defender and the defensive midfielder, Yang Cheng uses it Sven Bender and the two central defenders formed a triangle cage, imprisoning Messi in it.

Messi's retracement had to avoid Sven Bender more and move to both sides, but the tactical significance of such a retracement was greatly weakened, regardless of whether it was Banega or Di Maria. , in order to ensure that the ball reaches Messi's feet, they can only choose to shorten the distance between themselves and Messi.

Messi has already moved to the wing and cannot retreat too deep, otherwise the offensive significance will be completely lost, so he can only step in from behind.

Some people may ask, don't Banega and Di Maria know that joining from behind will widen the distance between themselves and Mascherano, and are they easily out of touch?

No. They knew it, and with Savilia's reminder, they knew it very well, but they had no choice!

Either plug in from behind, or get out of touch with the frontcourt. The former is easy to get out of touch with the backcourt, but if the frontcourt can successfully hold the ball. If they pose a threat, they will have plenty of time to return to their position, and the team's offense still has hope. If it is the latter, although the stability of the midfield is guaranteed, the team will completely lose its threatening offense!

It's a matter of trade-offs, and no one can blame Savilia, Banega or Di Maria. Because they just made a choice and they didn't forget their duty. It's just that they all hope. Every forward move and every pass he makes can help the team create a threat.

Yang Cheng's defensive strategy is also very clear. Without the ball, the defense line remains stable. Sven Bender guards the front of the defense line, paying attention to protecting the two ribs. Even Bastian Schweinsteiger will drop back to help defend. So most of the time it was 6 against 4 or 5 against 3. The German team maintained its formation well. The advantages are obvious.

And Messi's threat should never be on the wing, however. Once Argentina wants to move the ball from the wing to the center, they have no other way except relying on Messi's personal ability. But once Messi brings the ball from the wing to the center, Sven Bender is always the first. Time haunts him.

The advantage of fan-shaped defense is that when the opposing player takes the ball to attack, he is never faced with a player, but a fan-shaped defensive area. Once entering this area, the player with the ball will be completely blocked from the court. cut in space.

In this case, even a person as talented as Messi can never break away from the German team's cutting defense.

Once the German team gets the ball, they counterattack immediately, usually directly to Toni Kroos.

Mascherano pays more and more attention to Toni Kroos' marking. As soon as the latter gets the ball, he immediately sticks to him. However, Toni Kroos always avoids direct competition with Mascherano. Seeing him coming up, he moved the ball to the right.

Rojo and Fernandez were both players when Savilla coached at Estudiantes de La Plata. At that time, the two formed a central defender combination, but after Savilla coached the Argentine national team, Garay and Otamen were included as central defenders. A good player like Di, but there is a lack of reassuring players on the wing, so Savilia asked Rojo to play left back.

As a left-footed player, Rojo performed well as a left-back. Although his offensive contribution was not huge, it was pretty good, and his defense was reassuring. However, he lacked speed and was easily at a disadvantage when encountering speedy wing players.

Unfortunately, Podolski is exactly that kind of speed player, so when Podolski rushed forward quickly from the midfield wing, there was no ball at his feet, because Toni Kroos took the ball The pass passed behind Rojo, so the two competed for speed on the wing.

Obviously, Rojo was at a disadvantage at this point. Podolski got the ball before him and quickly went to the baseline.

A low ball was passed to the center of the penalty area, and the landing point was booked by Podolski behind Fernandez and Garay.

One thing that must be said is that Podolski's crosses are indeed much more reliable than Royce's. Many of the latter's crosses are seriously unreliable, but Podolski's crosses are far less reliable. Stable and accurate passes to the backs of Argentina's two central defenders.

Then I saw Gomez, like a tiger descending a mountain, ramming directly between Garay and Fernandez. It was like a heavy tank, running rampant and directly crushing the two Argentine central defenders, trying to stop them. He couldn't hold back, rushed directly to the landing point, took out his foot to meet the incoming ball and stabbed it.

Romero made the save immediately, but Gomez's shot was very smart. He hit a reverse low ball and the speed was very fast. No matter how sensitive Romero was, he still couldn't stop it in the end. The ball got into the goal he was guarding... The commentator on the scene could not wait to rush up from his seat, shouting with great excitement, Germany team, great German team, in the 41st minute of the first half, the German team Breaking through Argentina's goal again... Oh my god, the entire first half is definitely the most exciting first half of this World Cup so far. The German team played admirable offensive football, and the coordination was dazzling. It was very It’s so skillful and hearty that one can’t help but admire the German team’s offensive ability!”

The live TV camera showed the players celebrating on the sidelines, but soon turned to Yang Cheng.

Yang Cheng's ability to coach offense is absolutely undoubted, and he doesn't need to prove anything, but he is always able to shock people time and time again with the hearty offensive art he brings to the teams he coaches!

With a 3-goal lead, this game can even be said to have completely lost all suspense. The German team has already qualified for the semi-finals in advance, and judging from the past few games, the German team's condition is getting better and better. Their performance is becoming more and more impressive, and they will undoubtedly be the most popular team in this World Cup!

The camera kept replaying the goal scored by the German team just now. Gomez, who scored twice, looked very excited in this game and his performance was worthy of recognition. This will undoubtedly aggravate his current situation in this team. Position and weight in the German team.

So far in the top 8 knockout rounds, the German team's two scorers, Thomas Muller, have scored 6 goals, and Gomez has scored 5 goals. Both of them are individually ranked first in the scorer list of this World Cup. Second place, this also allows everyone to see the strong offensive firepower of the German team, especially in the last three games, the offense has been better and better each game.

We won Japan 4:0, Chile 4:0, and now we are temporarily leading Argentina 3:0. The German team's performance is getting better and better. We all have to wonder if there is still a team that can stop this unstoppable team. team?

I believe this will not only be a puzzle for the on-site commentator, but also a puzzle for all fans and professionals watching this game! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.) RQ
