Three Hundred and Seventy-Five Vicissitudes of Klopp

Seeing Klopp again after nearly half a year, Situ Yunbing is still chic and suave, while Klopp seems to have been devastated by the years, with glaring beard and deep eye sockets, as if the whole person has aged a few years!

Dortmund visited the People's Park Stadium, and Situ Yunbing greeted Klopp at home, but he just shook hands and nodded before the game to show respect.

In the past half of the season, Klopp's passionate color has gradually disappeared, replaced by silence and a slightly deep melancholy.

Dortmund's first half of the season was disastrous!

Not only was Hamburg behind by 16 points in the league, but it was also eliminated in the Champions League group stage!

You must know that the cruelty of their group competition is not very strong.

The Premier League's fourth-year-old Arsenal, the Ligue 1 champion Marseille, and the Greek champion Olympiacos.

Even in this group, Dortmund played a mess!

The best way to respect your opponent is to study your opponent thoroughly.

When preparing for the second half of the season, Situ Yunbing carefully studied teams such as Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, and of course also included Monaco, their knockout opponent who will go to the Champions League next month.

The source of Dortmund's biggest problems in the first half of the season was a strategic error.

This strategic blunder was the much-anticipated return of Captain Kyle.

Captain Kyle, who is over 30 years old, was seriously injured last season and almost did not perform throughout the season. In the new season, he was entrusted with important tasks. Klopp created a midfield double midfielder with Kyle and Bender as partners.

As a result, the performance of this combination did not give people confidence.

Then there was Klopp's frequent team changes between this combination and the full use of young players, and the record naturally could not remain stable.

Another factor is that Dortmund put all the offensive pressure on Lewandowski.

The Polish striker was righted in the second half of last season, and he needs to be the leader in the new season, and Situ Yunbing would do the same, but the problem with Dortmund is: they only have Lewandowski.

If Situ Yunbing is Klopp, he will reuse Lewandowski and give him plenty of room for tolerance, but he will not put his eggs in one basket.

Just like in Monaco, there are both Suarez and Gareth Bale. Needless to say, in Hamburg, Griezmann, Reus, Aubameyang, etc., in addition to the striker, even the midfielder also needs to be added. An extra layer of protection, without putting all the bets on De Bruyne.

It cannot be denied that Dortmund also has some quite talented young stars, Shinji Kagawa, Gotze and so on.

But the key is that they often play well with the wind, but they may not be able to turn things around against the wind!

This led to Dortmund's double-line setbacks in the league and the Champions League!

Setbacks are part of growth, but Dortmund will likely end in disappointment this season.

It is conceivable that Klopp is worried. There are still problems that the team needs to solve. Whether his trust in young players can receive the expected return is still a question.

Just like in the Champions League group stage, he gave Perisic absolute trust, but Dortmund only reaped the embarrassment of being at the bottom of the group, and it was the team with the fewest goals and the most conceded goals, which was terrible!

Maybe even Klopp himself will be lost for a while, questioning whether his approach and choice are correct.

This is perfectly normal. Situ Yunbing also had the idea of ​​giving up, and also had moments when he lost his way. The test of whether a coach has a big heart is whether he can survive this kind of time and unswervingly move towards himself. Think in the right direction!

If you can see the sun through the clouds, who would know what will be presented in front of you?

Maybe it will be a whole new world!

When Dortmund's starting lineup came into view, Situ Yunbing really looked at Klopp a few more times, quite surprised!

Alonzo sat on the coach's bench like a pinch, rubbing his hands to show the complexity of his inner emotions.

His pre-match predictions were completely wrong!

Klopp put Gundogan, Goetze, whose state fluctuated too much, Perisic and other young players who were frequently used in the first half of the season, on the bench!

This is the top arena. The formation of top coaches is sometimes not a secret, but at critical moments, it may be unexpected!

Situ Yunbing did not have any panic, Hamburg is so strong today, there is no need to look at the faces of the opponents in the Bundesliga!

People's Park Stadium was noisy and shocking. The game against Dortmund became the most anticipated game for fans after Situ Yunbing took office. It was not because of hatred, but because it was exciting!

They can see the most passionate and exciting game!

The purest enjoyment!

"Good evening, audience friends, welcome to the first round of the second half of the Bundesliga!

Today, we will live broadcast the defending champion Hamburg vs. Dortmund, the third-ranked Dortmund at home, at the People's Park Stadium!

The German media has stopped predicting the league championship, but I think if Hamburg is narrowed by the chasers Bayern Munich and Dortmund behind them, they will definitely say that the suspense is back!

At present, Hamburg, which holds a 13-point lead over the second place, is looking like a bag for the champion sand table!

But as Situ Yunbing said, whether Dortmund is out of the championship today or can make Hamburg nervous depends on the performance of the two teams today.

Burger starts today at 433.

Goalkeeper: Keylor Navas.

Defenders: Azpilicueta, Van Dijk, Boateng, Ogo.

Midfield: Rakitic, Kante, De Bruyne.

Forwards: Son Heung-min, Griezmann, Royce.

Before the game, Matuidi felt unwell and withdrew from the starting lineup. Aubameyang was hidden by Situ Yunbing because he was about to go to the Africa Cup of Nations. He was replaced by South Korean star Sun Xingmin. Situ Yunbing should hope that Aubameyang Yang can save energy, and at the same time allow Sun Xingmin to integrate into the main lineup early to better face the future schedule.

Dortmund started today with 4231.

Goalkeeper: Weidenfeller.

Defenders: Piszczek, Subotic, Hummels, Schmelzer.

Midfield: Kuba, Bender, Shinji Kagawa, Kyle, Gross Kreutz.

Forward: Lewandowski.

Klopp's formation today is a bit unexpected. Like Gotze, Gundogan is sitting on the bench. Maybe he knows that if he goes head-to-head with Hamburg, then Dortmund will probably have no good end, so he chose to play some style Tough players to strengthen the defense.

In the opening game of the season, Hamburg defeated Dortmund at the West ** Stadium. Today I don't know if Dortmund can complete their revenge away!

Let us wait and see! "

Just a year ago, Dortmund still had the ambition to attack Hamburg, but now they have no confidence to confront Hamburg head-on.

In any case, Klopp will not raise his hands in surrender. Since he has lowered his stance, he is heading for victory!

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

Hamburg took the lead at home. After a quick pass from the midfielder, the ball was transferred to the right to Sun Xingmin.

Sun Xingmin quickly passed the ball along the right, and faced Schmelzer with great confidence and suddenly changed direction. When he thought he had got rid of Schmelzer, his idea was actually right, but he did not expect that the A press from the rear caused him to lose possession of the ball.

Gross Kreuz returned to the front of the penalty area!

Situ Yunbing looks normal, and Sun Xingmin's performance is fine. If you play this kind of game and use Royce to attack, you will easily run into the opponent's highly targeted defensive encirclement, so often in this kind of game , Aubameyang will play better because the relative space will be larger.

It's just that Dortmund's intention to strengthen their defense today is too clear. The midfielders are all strong players, able to run and fight, and covering each other's defense areas has a superimposed effect!

Unlike Shaheen in the past, the combination of Kyle and Bender has a better defensive effect, but this is also relative. If the main offensive tactic is used, the risk is still very high, but the defensive counterattack is different. Compression The shortening of space and zone defense distance makes the overall defensive strength stronger!

It seems that Klopp still made some summaries and reflections from the failed experience of the first half of the season.

If his team can play like this in the Champions League group stage, I dare not say that it will definitely be able to beat the crowd, at least it will not be a big problem to qualify.

Not to mention the strength of Wenger's Arsenal, but with Didier Deschamps' Marseille and Olympiacos, Situ Yunbing can guarantee that even Hamburg in the middle of last season will not be taken seriously.

Hamburg's attack was frustrated, and Dortmund's counterattack from the backcourt failed to succeed.

Kanter's interception of Shinji Kagawa was in place, which forced Dortmund into a passive defensive position.

In the 4th minute of the game, when the opponent was strictly on guard, Hamburg had to mobilize the full-backs to attack. After Azpilicueta assisted up from the right, he did not go down. He just threatened to tear the opponent's defense and immediately transferred the ball. Go left.

Royce saw that Piszczek, Subotic, and Kyle formed an interception circle in the inside running position. He decisively knocked the ball back obliquely, and Rakitic stepped forward and then the ball The power was over to De Bruyne's feet, and Griezmann made a forward move to suppress Hummels and did not dare to move.

De Bruyne sent the ball short to the front right of the penalty area when Bender came up to press.

Sun Xingmin cuts inside and kicks for a shot!

It's a pity that his shots are a bit outrageous. Although he has a good upward momentum this season, he has played only a handful of big-scene games. The pressure against Dortmund and the rhythm of the game itself will inevitably require him to adapt.

After Sun Xingmin missed the ball, he looked at Situ Yunbing worriedly, but Situ Yunbing looked as usual and did not feel dissatisfied with him.

Situ Yunbing naturally saw his little moves, and sighed in his heart, this South Korean genius was out of his mind by his almost harsh and strict estimation.

So he gave Sun Xingmin an encouraging gesture, hoping that he would not go to the game with ideological baggage, which would not be good for the entire Hamburg team.
