Chapter 859: No-front tactics

\u003e “I’m not very satisfied with the players’ performance in this game!”

At the press conference at the Olympic Stadium after the game, Yang Cheng's first answer when being interviewed by reporters was to pour cold water on the team. With a 4-0 victory over the strongest opponent in this group, the German team's momentum was indeed strong. He was out of control, but he felt that what was more important now was to learn and make progress with an open mind.

We had many scoring opportunities in this game. Podolski hit an anti-aircraft gun in front of the goal. Klose wasted a single shot. Thomas Muller handled at least two shots too hastily. Ozil Their dribbling lacked threat and attacking ability, and I couldn't be satisfied with their performance.

Yang Cheng's words naturally caused an uproar among the media and reporters, but many people are already accustomed to Yang Cheng's style. They have followed and reported on Yang Cheng for so many years, and they all know his habits and understand His intention.

After returning home, some media and reporters will report Yang Cheng's dissatisfaction fearing that the world will not be in chaos, while some reporters and media will say that Yang Cheng has good intentions. In short, reporters with different positions and ideas will have different reports. The key is to see what kind of news the fans like to see.

Of course, I don't deny that we played very well in this game as a whole. We penetrated Turkey's goal 4 times. For us, this is a memorable game, but I think we still have There’s a lot of room for improvement.”

Immediately below, another reporter raised his right hand and stood up after receiving permission.

Mr. Yang Cheng, Mesut Ozil won the best player of the game in this game. Almost all of us felt that his running, breakthrough and passing in this game were very classic and worthy of the award. Perfect, do you think your demands are too harsh on him? It's like Khedira thinks your demands are too much!

This reporter obviously wanted to settle old and new accounts together. Linking Yang Cheng's high demands on Ozil with Khedira, who was excluded from the national team by Yang Cheng, or should I say, Ozil is Yang Cheng's favorite general and believer, what does Yang Cheng say? There will be no big news, but Khedira is different. He is very angry now.

Perhaps, Mesut is a very popular player in the eyes of you and the fans, but what I want to say is that he is far from as good as you have portrayed and imagined.

Many reporters below were in an uproar. Because Yang Cheng's words seemed to be deliberately belittling Ozil.

I say this not because I think he has no strength and potential. On the contrary, I say this because I know his potential and that he can reach a higher height and realm. He can give everyone, including fans around the world, Bring a unique football experience,

But he is still far away from this step.

I often tell him that you can play better than you are now, but only if he corrects his shortcomings. For example, his lack of scoring ability and his lack of awareness of confrontation in the game. Especially breakthroughs with the ball. In terms of performance, I think he has a downward trend. This is definitely a step back for a player with a high ability on the ball!

Of course, Ozil is very important to the current German team. He is the offensive direction of the team. I firmly believe that he will do better and be even better! This sentence of Yang Cheng was completely exposed. His support and belief in Ozil.

Mr. Yang Cheng, the German team has won three consecutive victories and ranked first in the group since its formation. The style of play is very good and the attack power is very strong. Many people are optimistic that this German team can achieve something, especially under your leadership. Now, what do you think? A German reporter stood up and asked politely.

Yang Cheng thought for a while and smiled slightly, I don't think the current German team can do anything. If we are given another chance and face Spain again on the field, we will still lose. If we face Italy again, we will still lose. To lose, it’s because we have a lot of deeper things that we haven’t sorted out.”

Everyone present could feel the worry and anxiety revealed in Yang Cheng's expression.

When I was coaching Chemnitz, all the football people in Germany felt that German football could dominate the world. At that time, they were talking about the Troika, Sammer and Kahn. , it was Effenberg, but I asked them at that time, how old are they?

Everyone who knows German football knows very well that Germany won the 1996 European Cup and was unrivaled. Coupled with the invincibility of Bayern, Dortmund and other teams in the European arena, German football has great potential to reach the world's No. 1 ranking. Regarding the intention of the first league, Yang Cheng, Beckenbauer and others can be said to be one of the few rational people at the time, so they withstood the pressure and implemented a youth training system that brought countless benefits to German football.

The disastrous defeats in the two major competitions in 1998 and 2000 brought devastating disaster to the entire German football. They won the runner-up in the 2002 World Cup in South Korea and Japan, but you can go and look at the German team that year. They were really good players. How many players are there in 2004? By the 2004 and 2006 tournaments, Germany began to transform and began to adapt to the effects and gains brought by the youth training system.

But what I want to say is that the transformation over the years has paid off very successfully. Everyone has begun to realize that the current Germany is completely different from the previous Germany. They play more beautifully, pay attention to possession of the ball, and emphasize one kick. , launched a gorgeous attack, which is very good and ideal, but we lost the most important thing!

In both the 2008 and 2010 tournaments, we both lost in the finals, and unexpectedly they both fell at the feet of Spain. If you lose once, it can be said to be an accident, but if you lose twice, and both times you lose like that, Was that still a coincidence?

We need to retrieve some things from the past, some spirits and traditions that have been forgotten or forgotten by this new German national team, because we all know that only by retrieving the core of the soul can we be a team. The key to the team’s glory!”

This takes time, and it takes longer and more time, so I hope that everyone, including the Football Association management, the media, and the players themselves, should have a clear concept. That is why the current German team is going On the road to rise, we are still a team that is being formed and adjusted, so don’t talk about championships or glory, as that will only make you lose yourself!”

After saying this, Yang Cheng smiled again, Of course, I hope players who have ambitions and goals. So I don't mind players setting higher expectations and goals for the team and themselves, but the key is to down to earth!

Yang Cheng's words. Most people agreed, but some people felt that he was too exaggerated and too specific. After all, the strength and results of the German team were there, but the words came from Yang Cheng's mouth. They were unable to refute.

After that, the media asked some questions one after another, all related to the players and the team, and Yang Cheng also answered them one by one. One of the questions involved Toni Kroos and Bastian Schweinsteiger.

Tony is a very smart player. He played very well after coming on as a substitute in this game and ran very actively. He also cooperates very well with Schweinsteiger. I think this can definitely give us Put forward some more options. I firmly believe that he will get more and more opportunities in the national team.

As for the team's long-term plan, Yang Cheng said that his most important goal now is to win one game in the qualifiers.

A very important foundation for establishing the temperament and soul core of a team is performance, or victory!

This is a very real phenomenon in all competitive sports!

Only by winning games and honors can you be qualified to talk about the temperament and soul of the team. Are there any teams that have failed?

Athletic Bilbao should be regarded as the team most qualified to talk about tradition and spirit, but everyone will say that the tradition and spirit of this team are gradually lost, because this team has long lost its glory of the past.

Failure will cause the team's people to lose heart. Once people's hearts are scattered, any spirit or tradition will be nonsense. When your team becomes a habit of losing, then you will be a weakling who is bullied by others, and a complete helper. team!

Therefore, Yang Cheng also knows very clearly that if he wants to reshape the spirit and tradition of the German team, he does not rely on a few words or words, but to achieve outstanding results. On the basis of excellent results, Reshape the spirit of this team step by step!

The domineering power of Manchester United and the elegance of Real Madrid are not acquired in one day, but are achieved through long-term accumulation!

Powerful Germany defeated Türkiye 4:0!

Elf King Ozil responded to the fans' boos by scoring twice!

God sends Caesar! Germany wins three games in a row and leads the group!

The next day, the headlines of major German and European newspapers carried the news that the German team defeated Turkey 4:0. Bild also quoted an interview with Turkish coach Hiddink.

The famous Dutch coach admitted that Turkey lost this game. He believed that the German team was superior in terms of overall strength and tactical execution. There was obviously a certain gap between the Turkish players, but he also said that Turkey would not lose because of this. affected by the game, he firmly believes that the team still has a chance to qualify.

The thing that impressed me most about this game was Ozil. We lost to this outstanding player. He gave a world-class performance and we were defeated by him. I feel very sorry because he We couldn’t play for Turkey, otherwise, maybe we would have won this game.”

When Hiddink talked about Ozil, the best player in the game, he bluntly said that Ozil is a phenomenon.

I think the most important thing for him now is to leave Real Madrid. You know, there are too many talented stars in Real Madrid. They have outstanding football skills, such as David Silva, Kaká, Mata, Cristiano. ?Ronaldo and so on, none of this group of top football talents loses to Ozil, but they play in the same team, and the competition is very fierce.

Ozil is obviously unable to play all the games at Real Madrid, which will hinder his progress. I think the most important thing for him now is to leave Real Madrid and go to a team that can attack with him as the core and give him trust and support. Playing for a team he supports will take him to the next level.”

In fact, what Hiddink said is what many German media thought before, because Real Madrid does have too many talented superstars in the midfield and frontcourt, and it is difficult for Ozil to stand out among this group of people. Moreover, this Real Madrid team is also now connected with top creative superstars such as Messi and Iniesta, which will undoubtedly increase the competitive pressure within the team.

Leaving Real Madrid is not a bad choice for Ozil. At least there are many teams interested in Ozil in today's football. After all, this player has already shown his outstanding strength in the past with Real Madrid and the German national team, and he has no shortage of new players.

Except for Ozil, everyone feels that the most important player in the German team currently also includes Klose.

After scoring 1 goal, Klose has successfully surpassed the former East German striker Streich and became the player with the second most goals in the history of German football. He has now scored Scored 57 goals. It is only 11 goals away from the legendary striker Gerd Muller's record of 68 goals.

If Klose is in his current state and can continue to chase Muller, or even surpass him, the premise is that he must continue to gain Yang Cheng's trust and support!

There is a big benefit to Yang Cheng taking charge of the German team. That is, no one will criticize the current German team. Unlike when Loew was in charge of the German team, many club bosses and football people rushed to criticize. Yang Cheng stood there and everyone had to be obedient. No one dares to comment on the affairs of the national team.

Therefore, to a certain extent, this creates a relaxed environment for players to play and perform.

No one dares to question Yang Cheng's use and trust in players. As if he had given up on Khedira, all professionals were skeptical at best. No one would say that Khedira should be recruited, or would suspect that Yang Cheng had any selfish motives. After all, he is now leading the German team to three consecutive victories and is unstoppable.

Another thing that Yang Cheng is highly recognized for is that, like Loew, he attaches great importance to youth and renewal. During the period when he was in charge of Germany, he successively introduced many rookies, including Lars? Bender, Sven Bender, Gotze, Schürrle and Hummels were all selected for the national team for the first time, so naturally they were all counted in Yang Cheng's account.

October 12, 2010, evening, Kazakhstan.

The German team's away game against Kazakhstan is purely a training game for Yang Cheng, because the opponent's strength is difficult to affect the German team.

The lineup arranged by Yang Cheng for this game, the goalkeeper is Neuer; the defense is Lahm, Badstuber, Per Mertesacker and Jerome Boateng. This defense combination is all It is a combination of old and new, and Yang Cheng hopes to take this opportunity to polish Badstuber, and then use Westermann to put some pressure on Jerome Boateng.

In the midfield, Yang Cheng changed his previous routine and asked Sven Bender to play as a defensive midfielder. Bastian Schweinsteiger and Toni Kroos formed the central midfielder. The three frontcourt players were Thomas Muller and Ozil. Er and Podolsky.

One thing that is different about this new set of tactics is that Ozil's position is relatively advanced. During the game, he is more active in the area between the opponent's center back and defensive midfielder, responsible for blocking the opponent's center back. The defensive area was opened, allowing Thomas Muller and Podolski to complete the diagonal insertion into the penalty area and take the final shot.

Yang Cheng is very optimistic about the combination of Bastian Schweinsteiger and Toni Kroos. These two players complement each other to a certain extent. While Sven Bender stays in the backcourt and is responsible for defense, Lahm can do his best. Give full play to his offensive ability, and Jerome Boateng on the right can also advance forward and participate in the attack appropriately.

Although the tactics are new, the German team actually did not show too much unfamiliarity. The goal was scored at the beginning of the game. It was Podolski who dribbled the ball past two opponents from the right and took advantage of it. After Ozil pulled out the central defender, he passed the ball diagonally behind him, and Thomas Muller scored in one stroke, opening the scoring for the German team.

After scoring the goal, the German team seemed unstoppable, especially in the midfield. Bastian Schweinsteiger, Toni Kroos and Sven Bender became more and more cooperative and became the engine group of the German team. , which not only provides support to the players in the frontcourt, but also sends a steady stream of shells to the front.

Toni Kroos and Sven Bender also used a late attack to score a goal each, while Thomas Muller scored twice and Ozil scored in two consecutive games. The ball helped the German team finally beat Kazakhstan 5:0 away from home.

They have won two consecutive games and won big, scoring 9 goals and conceding no goals. The performance of the German team can be described as outstanding. The whole country is amazed and impressed by the current performance of the German team, especially in this game. In the game, when Yang Cheng chose to rotate Klose, he adopted a tactic without a forward, which was even more eye-catching.

Although there is no forward, it actually does not mean that the German team does not have the final blow. Thomas Muller and Podolski are very threatening in the back, and Ozil showed his keen interleaved running. With his ability, he can always move to the most threatening place to get the ball, thereby creating a threat and disrupting the opponent's defensive formation.

But it must also be said that Kazakhstan’s strength is not good, and it does not have much reference value. It cannot be said that beating this team will depend on the strength of the German team. Otherwise, the strongest team is Hungary. They are 8: San Marino was beaten with 0 blood, and Sweden also defeated Finland 5:0. Ibrahimovic also scored a hat trick.

However, everyone also noticed Yang Cheng's intention from this game, that is, without a strong forward to take over the gun from Klose's hand, he wanted to try a forwardless tactic, but the specifics were How to arrange it and what kind of strength it can exert will require a longer period of investigation and adjustment.

After defeating Kazakhstan, Germany's European Cup qualifiers have temporarily come to an end. New competitions will have to wait until 2011, so in the next period of time, Yang Cheng will focus more on La Liga competitions.

But there are still many things that really bother him, such as the upcoming German Football Association presidential election and the derby against Barcelona. He can't rest yet! (To be continued...)
