Nine Hundred and Seventy-Eight, the Ultimate Kill

Before the final, when Yang Cheng received a report from Wolfart about Kyle's injury, he was faced with two options. One was to replace Kyle with Mertesacker and partner with Hummels. As a central defender, the second option is to use Bad Stuber.

The national team coaching staff has a lot of disagreements over who should replace Kyle, because they all feel that Badstuber is not completely reassuring at least defensively, but Mertesacker is known for his stability. As a central defender, he and Hummels can form a very complementary central defender combination.

However, Yang Cheng made a conjecture and everyone gave up.

"In this game, we will definitely be beaten by Spain and retreat across the board. Apart from retreating, we have no way to stop Spain's increasingly sophisticated forward-less offensive tactics. As long as there is a little space for their mercury-like penetration, It’s impossible for us to defend, we can only retreat and defend against their lack of frontcourt fulcrum.”

"However, if we retreat across the board, the team will lose the weapons to effectively advance at the tactical level, especially when all our counterattack methods are contained by the opponent. We need a player to launch the attack from the backcourt, which will Be the key to us winning this game!”

Hummels is also an excellent long-range passer, but firstly, he is not accurate enough, and secondly, he needs space and time. In other words, he is the kind of person who needs to prepare and observe before taking action. As a long passer, it takes him a while from getting the ball to passing the ball, and during this period of time, the opponent may have already pressed forward.

Therefore, Yang Cheng proposed to use Badstuber because he hoped that Badstuber could form a double insurance with Hummels, just like he always used the left and right wings to attack the opponent's defense in the front. Coupled with Klose, the German team's counterattack line can even be said to be double insurance.

What I didn't expect was. Yang Cheng's guess before the game really became a reality at the end of the game!

This time, Badstuber dunked past Iniesta. The ultra-long-range missile was rolled out with his left foot. After drawing a beautiful parabola from the middle of the backcourt, it fell straight to the left side of the frontcourt and landed behind Arbeloa and Thomas Muller.

Thomas Muller had already chosen to press forward after the team stole the ball and penetrated Arbeloa. When he turned sideways and waited for the pass from the backcourt, he suddenly rushed to his fastest speed and passed Arbeloa in an instant. Using his explosive power and speed in a short period of time, he surpassed Spain. people.

But Arbeloa is very experienced, and he knows very well that Thomas Muller's explosive power and speed are very good. He had nothing to do with him in this aspect, so instead of fighting for speed, he chose to cut inside. When Thomas Muller secured the ball in the 32-meter area of ​​Spain, he happened to keep up with Thomas Muller, and his position happened to be on the way for the latter to cut inside.

Thomas Muller has nothing to do this time.

As soon as he stopped the ball, he deliberately paused and controlled the ball first.

Klose has also caught up from behind. He is followed by Ramos and Pique, but at the front of the penalty area, Klose does not choose to continue deeper into the penalty area, but pulls to the left.

Thomas Muller immediately passed the ball to the left baseline. Klose also rushed over and stopped the ball. Ramos behind him had blocked his turning angle, preventing him from easily entering the penalty area, because the Spanish central defender knew better than anyone else how to let a killer like Klose Entering restricted areas. The danger is too great.

Pique also returned to the left side of the penalty area to block, preventing Klose and Thomas Muller from posing a threat. Miguel Torres on the right was looking at Podolski, but the Spanish defense seemed to have blocked it. When the German team's counterattack was stopped, Klose suddenly took the ball back along the left and went straight to Arbeloa.

As soon as Arbeloa saw Klose coming towards him, he immediately threw away Thomas Muller and chose to block Klose with Ramos because there was also Pique standing in the left corner of the penalty area. stationed, and the midfielders are already in place.

Klose passed the ball to Thomas Muller. Muller took the ball and faced Pique directly, but he did not choose to dribble the ball himself. Instead, he moved the ball horizontally and passed it from the front of the penalty area to the center.

At this moment, I saw a player wearing a white German team jersey quickly catching up from behind. After intercepting Thomas Muller's pass, he took the opportunity to enter the penalty area and just cut in. There was a loophole in Spain's defense. As soon as he entered the penalty area, without waiting for Casillas to attack, he fired a calm and decisive volley.

The ball passed from Casillas' right side at extremely fast speed, almost clinging to the turf, and quickly passed through the goal behind him!

Facing this sudden thunderous shot, Casillas didn't even have time to react. When he turned around, he saw that the ball had already entered the net.

Everyone looked at this scene with their mouths open. They all looked at the man who took the kick in disbelief. After he completed the shot, he knelt down in the penalty area, bent his waist, and nodded. Standing on the turf in the penalty area, everyone can only see the number on his back, 13!

The on-site commentator was silent, and all the fans in the stands were silent. There were dozens of them, and they all suddenly felt as if they had been hit with a stick, because they unexpectedly discovered that at the critical moment, to save the team, The person who led the team out of adversity turned out to be the person they had been doubting and criticizing for such a long time.

Their captain, Michael Ballack!

Since Ballack came on the field, everyone can feel the changes in this German team again. They can all feel that the players are becoming more cohesive because of the return of the captain, and Ballack's every move on the court, They are also influencing and infecting their teammates.

From the league to the preparations to the European Cup, after playing so many games, even the players' bodies are almost exhausted. This game was once again dominated by Spain. Now the 90-minute game is about to begin. It's coming to an end, and the players from both teams can be said to have fought to their last breath.

Why Yang Cheng doesn't like to play overtime is because he knows very well that the competition in overtime is not actually about skills and tactics, but about who is more determined in willpower, whose mental strength is stronger, and who can improve their physical fitness. Make fewer mistakes when you're overdrafted. Who can have the last laugh.

He doesn't like this way of playing that is too risky. It is a choice that he will be forced to accept when he has no other choice. Now he still has a choice, so he will use Ballack to give it a try. First, use Ballack's mental strength to stabilize and drive the team, and second, use his experience to help the team.

Now, it is obvious that Yang Cheng's thoughts have been reflected. After Ballack came on the court, his contribution to the team was obvious to all.

This group of fans in the stands were there at the moment Ballack scored. They were all stunned for a few seconds, and then some shouts came out sparsely, but soon, the shouts got louder and louder, and finally all the German fans in the audience were chanting Barak's name.

At this moment, Ballack once again became the hero of German football!

"It's very, very admirable, this German team. At the 86th minute, they finally completed an epic reversal, but more importantly, they scored the reversal goal for the German team. It’s their captain, Michael Ballack!”

Amid the cheers of tens of thousands of German fans, the entire German team's scoring process was constantly replayed on the big screen in the stadium. Everyone can clearly see how the German team scored through the big screen. .

"Badstuber's long pass was very accurate, which fully reflects the excellent vision and technical skills of this player, especially after he dunked Iniesta, he quickly Badstuber's ability to complete the pass and throughout the entire process was admirable."

"After that, the cooperation between Klose and Thomas Muller almost made people doubt that the German team would be unable to counterattack. But in the end, Ballack's decisive advance gave the German team the final chance to make the final decision!"

"We can't say that this goal allowed the German team to surpass Spain, because the latter's strength even if they really lost this game in the end, we have to admit that they are still the strongest in the world. team. But what we can be sure of is that this German team is definitely the most difficult to deal with."

"The whole game was suppressed by Spain and was passively beaten throughout the game. However, the German team made two beautiful counterattacks and penetrated the Spanish goal twice. What is even more rare is that both times they were in the half-way Finishing the game before the end of the game fully reflects the tenacious fighting spirit and winning spirit of the German team, as well as their amazing fighting will."

Each of the Spanish players looked disappointed, but Del Bosque was already standing on the sidelines, shouting at the players desperately, asking all the players to cheer up again.

Immediately afterwards, Spain made the last two substitutions. These two substitutions fully reflected Bosque's determination to burn the boat. He replaced Arbeloa with Navas, and then replaced him with Llorente. With Pique, he obviously wanted to use Llorente, the frontcourt fulcrum, to break down the German team's defense.

But Yang Cheng quickly made adjustments. He replaced Klose, who was already exhausted, with Mertesacker. He strengthened the defense and let Mertesacker watch Llorente one-on-one, while the others went further. Strengthen Spain's wing defense.

A very important reason why Bosque has been reluctant to use Llorente is that Llorente's appearance will disrupt the smoothness of Spain's midfield attack, because he is tall and strong, and his technical skills are not delicate enough. As a result, he has never been able to achieve a seamless connection with Spain's frontcourt players in terms of flexibility and coordination of passing and receiving.

Playing Llorente means that Spain's offense will shift from the original center to the wing. This is also the reason why Bosque replaced Navas. He wanted to make a last-ditch effort to win from the German team. He scored a goal and dragged the game into stoppage time.

Ballack began to direct his teammates non-stop. He shouted to his teammates on the court and asked them all to stick to their posts and never relax until the last second.

The German team began to retreat across the board, while Spain launched a crazy attack. In the last 5 minutes, both teams fully demonstrated their tenacity in refusing to admit defeat, especially Spain, which almost ignored the defense behind them and even got stuck. Silas rushed to the front and directly participated in the attack.

The Spanish fans in the stands also shouted contagiously. They all hoped that their team would not give up because the game was not over yet and they must continue to persevere. Keep working hard and score goals.

For one second, in normal times, no one would care. If you squander it, you will squander it. But at this moment, every minute and every second, the players of both teams cherish it very much. They wish they could stretch every minute and every second into an hour, or even one day.

But the cruel time has ruthlessly reached the end!

When the time on the big red scoreboard in the stands jumped steadily to the 93rd minute. The on-site referee blew the whistle to end the game, and all the German fans in the stands rushed out of their seats, shouting and cheering loudly.

"The game is over!" The commentator on the scene seemed to be relieved. The last 7 minutes were a kind of torture for everyone, because both sides tried their best. They all gave their last breath.

So, when the buzzer sounded at the end of the game, almost all the players from both sides fell to the grass. They had no extra energy to move, so they just wanted to lie down or sit on the grass, silently listening to the sounds and movements coming from their ears, and silently feeling their mood at this moment.

Spain lost!

But none of the Spanish players cried, they just sat expressionlessly on the grass and watched silently.

Ballack struggled to stand up from the grass. Although he had only played for a few games, he had exhausted his last bit of strength. Even his legs were shaking slightly, making it unclear what he was doing. Excited. It was still due to physical exhaustion, but everyone could vaguely see a drop of crystal from his eyes.

He has won a championship in the club. It was when Yang Cheng led Kaiserslautern that he reached the pinnacle of professional players and won the unique Triple Crown in the history of German football. This made his career My life can be said to be regret-free. But in the national team, he always missed the championship honor.

The runner-up again and again made him completely numb, and made him feel that he might not be able to win the honor of the national team for the rest of his life. This has become the biggest regret in his life, even after appearing with Loew. After a dispute with some teammates, he had completely despaired of ever winning national team honors again.

But he always remembers that he is Barack, he has his persistence and principles, and he has his own pride, so even if he has regrets, he must stick to his bottom line and stick to what he thinks is right.

Yang Cheng, the head coach he respected most in his life, once again saved him in his most difficult time!

He once again entered the national team and competed in the European Cup again. It can be said that he was able to have this moment because of Yang Cheng's gift. This made him stand up from the grass with difficulty at this time. He walked to the coaching area and went straight to Yang Cheng, who was already waving his arms excitedly.

"Thank you, boss!" Barak stood in front of Yang Cheng. At this moment, he did not hesitate to let his tears fall down his face, because at this moment, he was as if he was 17 years ago. The kid standing in front of Yang Cheng was just like the kid from Chemnitz's second team.

Time has changed, the environment has changed, almost everything has changed, but some things have never changed!

Yang Cheng smiled, opened his arms, and hugged Barak into his arms. The latter was lying on Yang Cheng's shoulders at this moment, crying loudly, just like a child, but his cry was There is no sadness, no sorrow, only joy, only happiness, but more of gratitude and gratitude.

Without Yang Cheng, there would be no Ballack!

Without Yang Cheng, there would be no German national team today!

The championship that had lasted for more than ten years, and the hard pursuit of two or three generations of players, at this moment, in the hands of Yang Cheng, finally became a reality, an iron-clad fact. This scene made the stands and the TV Countless German fans waiting in front of the plane felt the same way, and they all had the urge to cry with Ballack and cry loudly together.

"This situation is definitely the most touching scene in this European Cup!"

"Barack will leave us after the end of this European Cup. Yang Cheng once said that football owes Ballack a national team championship, and after he took charge of the German national team, he once promised to serve his beloved disciple. Bringing him a championship will bring his career to a successful end."

"We have no way to appreciate the sincere master-disciple relationship between Yang Cheng and Ballack that has lasted for 17 years, and we have no way to appreciate the excitement in their hearts at this moment, but we It can be said with certainty that this scene will surely move the whole world and move everyone who loves football!”

"This game and this championship have made Yang Cheng one of the greatest coaches in the history of German football. This is not just because he is the biggest contributor to the renaissance of German football, but also because he has led the way for the renaissance of German football. The first championship came and a solid foundation was laid!”

"We have absolutely reason to believe that under the leadership of Yang Cheng, this young German team will become better and stronger. After winning this year's European Cup, the German team will also represent the European Cup next year. Europe will go to Brazil to participate in the Confederations Cup, and we also wish Yang Cheng and his team continue to win championship honors in national team competitions!"

When talking about this, the on-site commentator watched Yang Cheng hug and celebrate with the German players one by one on the court, and said with a bit of sadness, "Many people say that in Germany, football is the faith with the most believers. And now, we can also say that if football is a belief for Germans, then he, Caesar Yang Cheng, is the god that German football believes in!" (To be continued.
