Two Hundred and Eighty Ninth, Looking Forward to the Hero

On September 21, the fifth round of the Bundesliga, the People's Park Stadium.

There were no empty seats at the scene. When Situ Yunbing walked into the stadium, the Hamburg fans cheered magnificently!

In the past month, Hamburg's performance has satisfied every fan, and the Situ Yunbing cheering group composed of Chinese fans in the stands seems to be integrated with the Hamburg fans.

McLaren stood in front of the visiting team coach's bench and looked at Situ Yunbing with some envy.

As a coach, who doesn't want to get crazy support and support from fans?

It is hard to imagine that Situ Yunbing gathered super popularity in this stadium in only one month!

Situ Yunbing, who was standing on the sidelines waiting for the game to start, did not give the team blood before the game. On the contrary, he asked the team to face the game cautiously. Wolfsburg's player lineup is definitely ranked first in the Bundesliga No. 1, even if they ranked lower than Hamburg last season.

When the starters of the two teams walked into the stadium, all the fans used their full enthusiasm to make the atmosphere even more heated.

"Good afternoon, viewers, welcome to the fifth round of the Bundesliga in the new season, a focus battle. The league leader Hamburg is playing at home against Wolfsburg, which is ranked lower in the standings.

Affected by the last round of the Hamburg Derby, three of Hamburg's main players were suspended today. The outside world predicted that their strength would be greatly reduced. 4 league rounds with 1 win and 3 losses.

If you introduce Wolfsburg to new fans now and say that they are the Bundesliga champions in 2009, I am afraid not many people will believe it.

The two coaches were very low-key before the game, but no one doubted that they must have great ideas for victory!

Alright, let's take a look at the starting lineups of the two teams.

Hamburg starting 433.

Goalkeeper: Keylor Navas.

Defenders: Westerman, Van Dijk, Mattison, Ogo.

Midfield: Rincon, Kante, Matuidi.

Forwards: Aubameyang, Griezmann,

Royce.

Wolfsburg start 433.

Goalkeeper: Benaglio.

Defenders: Pekarik, Barzagli, Kjaer, Schaefer.

Midfielders: Karen Bell, Josue, Diego.

Forwards: Makoto Hasebe, Dzeko, Grafite.

Judging from the formation of the two teams, both teams are forward-oriented and attacking, but whether they can play a passionate game depends more on Wolfsburg, because their midfield organization ability is stronger ! "

Wolfsburg's lineup is indeed good, but it is worse than the year they won the championship. For example, Grafite's state began to decline last season.

Under the guidance of the new coach in the new season, Wolfsburg's biggest problem is actually defense. They conceded 8 goals in 4 games, but their offensive ability is not bad, averaging 1.5 goals per game.

Situ Yunbing is not affected by any external interference. The team is now basically on the right track. The tactical adjustment has achieved a certain effect. The style of play and the use of personnel have been clarified. Now it has entered a period of rapid growth. The worst is a disastrous defeat, which will hurt morale and the team's confidence. At the same time, if the team has expectations on the basis of steady progress, then it will be the birth of a hero!

It is difficult for a team without heroes to create miracles!

Griezmann and Royce, who have performed well in the past four rounds of the league, have such potential, but Situ Yunbing will expect more from them. He hopes that some players can become outstanding and even domineering on the court!

With the whistle of the referee, the game officially kicked off.

Shocking cheers echoed in the People's Park stadium.

Wolfsburg coach McClaren looked serious but his eyes implied a sharp color. When Wolfsburg started the game from the first minute, he tried to speed up the tempo and repeatedly hit the Hamburg defense line, which showed that he was full of enthusiasm for the game. ambition!

There are very few conservative coaches in England, or in fact, there have been no good coaches in England in recent years. Perhaps the best coach in active service should be the old Redknapp. Their coaching is more influenced by the Premier League. Lack of continental baptism.

Fast-paced, high-intensity, fierce confrontation to seize the advantage, always gives people the impression of excess strength and insufficient wisdom.

McLaren was very low-key before the game, because his team only won 1 game in the past 4 league games, so he can't make a high profile!

But it is absolutely impossible to say that Wolfsburg does not want to win the opponent when Hamburg is short of major generals. If they dare not forcefully strive for victory, then what hope do they have?

McLaren's handsome position may also be in jeopardy.

In the 3rd minute of the game, Diego received a pass from Karen Bell on the left side of the front court, and Rincon intercepted him head-on. The former Bundesliga mvp who left Juventus and quickly returned to the Bundesliga game is still at home here , Facing Rincon, he easily and flexibly changed the direction of the ball to complete the escape, but Kanter who caught sight of him in the next second caught him off guard!

Kanter is fast, and maybe his interception skills need to be improved, but always going up after his teammates will increase his success rate of steals.

Seeing that Kanter was coming aggressively, Diego couldn't change direction continuously, so he quickly passed the ball straight to the area behind Kanter.

The ability to play the ball in a small range in time is still reflected to the extreme.

Dzeko responded with his back in front of the penalty area. When Matuidi rushed to press the ball, he pulled the ball and turned in the opposite direction. When he turned around, he saw the tall and burly Van Dijk. He could only choose to be fast. Hit the ball horizontally.

Grafite crossed to the front of the penalty area from the left. After Westerman shrunk the defense, he chose to shoot the ball as soon as he touched the ball!

With a low shot, the football flew to the lower left corner of the center of the goal, and Navas confiscated the ball after moving steadily.

Since Wolfsburg took the initiative to attack, Hamburg is naturally happy to see it, and their defensive counterattack has a better use.

Navas quickly threw the ball to the left to Ogo, who sent the ball straight forward.

Royce, who started on the side of the backcourt, obviously retreated a lot. This is because there is a lack of organizers in the center, and the offensive advancement needs to rely on wingers to retreat!

When Makoto Hasebe quickly returned to defend and press, Royce kicked the ball back diagonally, then turned around and started running forward.

Matuidi stepped forward and kicked the ball diagonally to send the ball to the front of Royce's running position, making Makoto Hasebe's defense useless.

After passing the midfield, Royce took advantage of the trend and accelerated the ball.

This drove Wolfsburg's defense to retreat quickly. In front of Pecarik, Royce changed direction and turned to the inside track ahead of time. Josue and Pecarik came together to flank him.

Royce took the lead in passing the ball diagonally to the left of the center in front of the penalty area before the formation of a pinch between the two.

Griezmann crossed the ball in front of Barzagli in the middle of a diagonal run, and made an emergency stop to counter-grab the ball or pass the ball to Aubameyang who cut in on the other side.

Barzali didn't dare to go up, but his center of gravity was tilted towards the middle, which was completely deceived by Griezmann's fake moves!

When Griezmann kicked the ball again, he killed the left side of the penalty area. Barzagli could only turn around and had no time to intercept. Griezmann grasped this rhythm change very well.

Griezmann shot a low shot from the left side of the penalty area, and the football flew straight to the near corner of the goal. At the very moment, Benaglio threw the ball to the limit and saved the ball out of the bottom line with a single palm!

The Hamburg fans in the stands of the People's Park Stadium applauded Griezmann after a moment of wonder.

Griezmann himself was not disappointed.

His expression was calm, and a few words he had chatted with Situ Yunbing at the training ground this morning echoed in his mind.

During the break, he asked Situ Yunbing jokingly, "Boss, how far am I short of Gareth Bell?"

After a moment of silence, Situ Yunbing said with a smile: "I don't know, but there is no defender in Ligue 1 who can defend Gareth Bale one-on-one."

Situ Yunbing did not lie. With Gareth Bale's current impact, there really is no defender who can stop him in Ligue 1, but the team's offense and defense will never be a duel of individual heroism.

But as far as the player's role is concerned, Gareth Bale is a nuclear weapon in Ligue 1. He can bring local devastating blows to opponents on the left!

Situ Yunbing finally said to him: "No two players in the world are exactly the same. There are so many Zidane II, Pele II, Maradona II, and in the end, either these IIs all disappeared. , or become yourself, such as Messi.

Don't care who to compare with, it's meaningless, the person you have to compete with is always yourself! "

For Griezmann, Reus and De Bruyne, they are just on the road, but they all want to run faster!

Situ Yun supervised the battle on the sidelines with a meticulous expression, and the situation of the game seemed to be decided at the beginning.

Wolfsburg's midfield does not have a strong interception ability, otherwise they would not have conceded an average of two goals per game in the past four games.

In terms of offensive tactics, McLaren did not bring many new things to Wolfsburg. Of course, among the top European leagues, only Serie A has a variety of tactical contests, and the tactics of other leagues are not different. big.

The rhythm of the game has basically become that Wolfsburg can play one or two strong attacks, and Hamburg can play a counterattack.

What limited Wolfsburg's offensive efficiency was the three midfielders in Hamburg, Rincon, Kanter, and Matuidi's crazy press made it difficult for them to have unexpected threatening balls in the final link of the attack.

Rincon may seem a bit reckless, but it has a very good effect when paired with Kanter, who is a late striker. Matuidi is more experienced and faster, adding another layer of protection.

Diego and Karen Bell, as well as the Brazilian midfielder Josue who plugged in from time to time, have never been able to show creative performances in front of the penalty area.

The factor that reduces the threat of Hamburg's counterattack is that each counterattack takes too long to advance. Without De Bruyne, it is basically difficult for the winger to move forward directly when the counterattack opportunity arises. It will immediately bring pressure to the opponent's counterattack, and the winger needs to back from the middle The field began to move forward, and the opponent had more time to adjust the defense.

The first 20 minutes seemed to be evenly divided and deadlocked, but the rhythm was accelerating little by little!
