Chapter 311 Look Again!

Germany is not easy to deal with.

German players have always had a tenacious will, a tenacious game mentality and excellent adaptability, which are closely related to the German Germanic nation's rigorous work style, high efficiency and high quality.

In recent years, Germany has been emphasizing the tactic of passing the offense quickly and pressing the opponent to defend at the same time. Coupled with the German's tough but flexible and technical style of play, the German team has almost no defects, and the game has become more enjoyable to watch. strong.

Now the German team on the field has brought this style to its peak.

This German team is a young team, leaving aside the young Thomas Muller, and the star Ozil is only 24 years old. They have surpassed the "old German team" in the early 2000s.

It's not easy to beat this German team.

In many respects, England has no advantage over Germany. In the absence of an advantage in most aspects, if you want to win the game, you must think of some surprising ways.

Wansheng will not pin its hopes on a 'penalty shootout'.

Not to mention how good Germany's penalty kicks are, then England might not even have the chance to take a penalty kick.

Wansheng chose to let the team play a surprising tactic, which is to play against the German team.

Let the average person understand that England and Germany are fighting against each other, and it is really a promising future. It is completely equivalent to ceding victory to the opponent, but Wansheng does not think so. Let’s not talk about the improvement of the football training master system to the England team. Just talking about the German team itself, in fact, they are still flawed, and that is also the flaw of the German team's style of play - they lack creativity and change.

This has something to do with the German players' overly persistent and even paranoid style of play in some aspects.

The whole team lacks creativity and changeability, which means that the German team has a poor ability to control the rhythm of the game. They can easily fall into the rhythm of the opponent team and cannot control the game.

Wansheng wanted to take advantage of this.

In the preparations before the game, what he emphasized was, "Keep the rhythm at the speed we are most comfortable with!"

This requirement does not sound difficult, especially in the face of a team that is not good at controlling the rhythm, but the England team is also not good at controlling the rhythm. In this regard, they are not much better than the German team. In the minds of many players, even There is no concept of game rhythm, so if you want to do this, you can only rely on core players.

The core of the England team is of course Morris!

In this game, Morris is the most important player. He not only has to organize the offense, but also control the team's speed during the offense.

Compared with the German team, which has always emphasized speed, the rhythm of the England team is much slower. Many players are more adapted to the slow and gradual offensive, rather than speeding up, which will greatly increase their turnover rate.

"The game must be slowed down!" Wan Sheng repeatedly emphasized.

Whether coaching Manchester City or Atletico Madrid, Wansheng has always emphasized fast-paced football, because the faster the pace, the better it is for the team, while coaching England is different, he has no time for the team to do long-term adaptation training , can only rely on the team's habits, to change the tactical play.

This is hard work.

In the past few days, the team has been doing this, and the game is also a test of the preparation results.

Wansheng wasn’t sure whether the team could bring out the training, so at the beginning of the game, he stood on the sidelines and didn’t want to miss a single shot.

Ten minutes later, Wan Sheng felt a little relieved.

Although the training time was not long, under the effect of 'cooperation', the training also had a certain effect. The entire team played without much problem, and in the attack against the German team, it did not fall into the disadvantage.

The English players on the field did not actively fight or rush forward, and most of their energy was on running positions.

They still adapt.

Before the game, Wansheng talked about each player in detail, what to do every minute, where to stand, and even what speed to pass the ball. His requirements are actually very simple, especially for England players, these giants From the perspective of players from the team, that kind of requirement is not very difficult, but it is also difficult to make sure that the whole is not wrong.

"Pay attention to doing your own thing!"

Every player remembers this sentence, they are constantly adapting to running, adapting to their position, and adapting to the game more and more.

Many English players were surprised.

They feel that they have done little work, but the team as a whole is on a par with Germany. Is this the role of the whole?

"Football really is a sport for eleven people!"

Many people understand this better.

The England team was able to compete with the German team in the opening game, and it did not seem conservative at all. The two teams were constantly cooperating and constantly launching offensives. This kind of game situation was beyond many people's expectations.

Just like the surprise of the British Sky Sports commentator Graham, "England seems to have changed its style of play... No, it doesn't seem to have changed, but they have attacked and defended in the game, and they are on par with the German team!"

"England's cooperation looks simple, but Germany is difficult to grab, it seems that their cooperation has become more skilled..."

"If you were to describe the England team's cooperation, yes, it would seem to have a rhythm, each passing the ball at the same speed, they played neither in a hurry nor slow, but the whole team played quite well, leaving the Germans nothing good. The only way, they can only retreat and compress the formation to defend..."

"When did the England team play so smoothly?"

In Graham's "surprise", he also told the "truth", the previous England team sometimes attacked very fast, but there were always problems with coordination, smooth coordination, and it would get stuck a few times in the middle.

It's different now.

The transfer speed between players is not fast, but it is smooth all the way, often one offensive, until near the penalty area, the opponent can't even touch the ball.

It also made the game look a lot better.

In fact, England's offense is not as magical as Graham said. The players' movements on the field are very simple, and the passing is nothing exciting. The only thing is that they are passing the ball all the time, and no one is particularly dribbling the ball. , the transmission has always controlled the speed, and the transmission speed remains the same from the backcourt to the frontcourt.

It is such a simple style of play, but the German team has no good way.

what happened?

Germany coach Loew looked at the game with a slightly heavy face. He could also see that the cooperation of the England team was not complicated, and the transmission speed was not fast. Normally, the German team is easy to defend, but during the game, Germany is difficult to grab the ball.

So the reason is actually the movement of the English players.

Only in the correct position can the player passing the ball pass the ball accurately, and the player receiving the ball will not be affected by the pass.

This may be the most important thing the Chinese brought to the England team!

What gave Loew a headache was the speed of the England team. It can be seen that the opponent has been controlling the speed. The German team has been trying to speed up, but when the football arrived in the hands of the England team, the speed immediately slowed down.

Is this a habit in England, or did they do it on purpose? If England is deliberately controlling the speed, then it is conceivable that the game is a bit difficult to play.

Loew could not help but glanced at the England coaching bench.

The Chinese was standing on the sidelines and was very concerned about the game. If we compared the state of the two, it was obvious that Loew, who was sitting in his position, was more stable, but Loew knew that the situation was a bit unfavorable for the German team.

Before coaching the German team, Loew had been serving as Klinsmann's assistant. After so many years, he knew the German team very well. He knew the team's strengths and weaknesses, and the team's control of the rhythm of the game. It's always been a big problem.

This can't be solved.

The key is that the players cultivated in the entire German football environment are somewhat old-fashioned and stubborn. The players who grow up have defects in their creativity, especially those who play in the German league.

The most creative player in the team can only be Ozil.

Ozil has played for Manchester City in the Premier League since he was an adult, and then went to Atlético de Madrid in Spain. It can be said that he is the player who was trained by the Chinese.

Ozil is really good.

In Loew's view, Ozil's skills have reached the peak of professional players, and his overall situation awareness is also quite good. In terms of organizational attack, he is much stronger than Schweinsteiger.

But such a player is only a full-back in Atlético Madrid!

Loew understands a bit why Atletico Madrid can win the La Liga, the Copa del Rey and the Champions League Grand Slam last season, and he is more vigilant about Maurice, who is the core of Atletico Madrid and England - to make Ozil Willing to play the fullback, can you imagine how good Morris will be?

Before the game, Ozil also talked to his teammates, "You must be careful in the game. Our boss is not easy to deal with. He always has a way to make the game more beneficial to his team!"

In the German locker room, Ozil is very important. He is the core of the team and the most valuable German player. Everyone can see his performance in the game. In the previous group stage, including the quarter-finals , Ozil scored 3 goals, second only to striker Gomez, is the second most scoring players in the team.

3 goals are not enough to explain Ozil's performance.

In the game, the position of the attacking core is not discussed for a while, he still has 3 assists data, and at the same time, two of his three goals were created by himself.

How many players in the entire German team can create their own chances and score the ball themselves? Not even the brilliant Thomas Muller. Some German fans refer to Ozil as 'Germany's Messi' or 'Germany's C-Ronaldo'!

If the game goes on like this, it is obviously not good for the German team, so now, it is time to let Ozil play!

Love has a decision.

But the game has just started, he has not made up his mind, because it is a small tactical adjustment, Ozil is the core of the team, liberating his position, which means that Schweinsteiger must be arranged to organize attack.

Such adjustments are not easy to make.

"Look again!" thought Love.
