Chapter 63 Dortmund without Zize

"Even if our Ice Prince is not on the field, our offense can still threaten Real Madrid's goal. Robert performed well." Muller praised the attack: "Of course, Kuba is also, I hope he is not kicked by Pepe. Kicked too hard."

This attack also caused Kuba to fall to the ground in pain. Just now Pepe's big foot directly hit Kuba. Whether this clearance was an intentional counterattack to a long pass or a random big foot, Kuba is not quite sure, but he knows that the football cannot easily fly to his own half.

The ball hit him in the chest. It didn't seem to be a big problem, but he was a little blinded by the kick and he was a little out of breath, but he recovered after a while.

Klopp stood on the sidelines and applauded this attack. What Klopp, who pays attention to the high pressure in the frontcourt, hopes to see is to cut off the opponent's counterattack opportunities in the frontcourt. Kuba did a good job this time.

And this time it even appeared. Although there was an element of luck, it was a real threat to Casillas.

The two teams played evenly for a while. Mourinho's Real Madrid seemed to have passed the running-in period and had excellent defense. This hates Mourinho, but what is even more frightening is that their offense is equally astonishing.

With stars like Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema on the front line, and players like Alonso, Gourcuff or Di Maria behind him to send the ball, it is hard for Real Madrid's offense not to be outstanding.

Real Madrid's offensive system still mainly comes from counterattacks. Klopp also understands that this game cannot be too aggressive. After the opening shots of the two strikers Ronaldo and Lewandowski, Dortmund restrained a little.

Of course, it is not completely "convergent".

In Dortmund, Klopp has gradually imprinted his own brand on this team. His signing ideas and team transformation ideas are all carried out in accordance with his own football style. These players have also become accustomed to it. Adapted to Klopp's tactics.

Adapting to this costly tactic is actually very difficult, but Klopp is also smart in that he will try to use his own people as much as possible, and use players who have adapted to his tactic to promote the formation of the team's tactical system. Zize, Reus, Subo Tichi and Zidan are all good proofs.

And Klopp's high-position pressing is actually an offense. Pressing on the spot in the frontcourt is to quickly organize an attack. Mourinho is a defensive coach, so Klopp is an offensive coach.

It was a rivalry between two very different teams, and it was all the more apparent in the absence of Zitzer, a player who often had flashes of non-tactical inspiration.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Dortmund's tactics can be played better without Zize on the field. In fact,

Every team needs a player who can decide the game in a flash.

Even if it is as strong as the Cosmos team Barcelona, ​​when the midfielder is stunned and unable to tear the defense, Messi's role is to use his flash of inspiration to forcefully create opportunities. In fact, there are many That's the game.

When such a player does not appear on the field, many teams will play more tactically and in a more satisfactory manner.

The description of mediocrity can easily give people the impression that it is barely passable and of an average level, but in fact it is very rare to be able to play out the tactics in a football field.

The so-called tactics are only a part of the game process. The opponent's performance and tactics are also one of the decisive conditions for whether one's own tactics can be "generally executed well". If they can be displayed smoothly, it shows that the team is still operating very well.

This is the situation on the field now, with Dortmund attacking and Real Madrid defending.

It's just that Real Madrid's counterattack is very fast and sharp. Under Mourinho's tactical system, the team's top star Ronaldo does not need to participate in defense too much. This is relatively rare in Mourinho's team, but it is also It can show Ronaldo's difference.

If Dortmund's attack is counter-robbed and fails to get the ball back, Real Madrid's counterattack will come.

The most important thing to pay attention to in Real Madrid's counterattack is of course Ronaldo, but before the ball, Klopp asked the players to pay attention to Harvey Alonso.

Of course Ronaldo needs to pay attention to counterattacking the sharp knife, but what needs to be paid more attention to is the dealer. The offensive commander of Real Madrid is Harvey Alonso. Klopp's pre-match arrangements have also been well executed. Ski and Gotze often interfere with Alonso's passing.

In a sense, this is what Qi Ce cannot do. Qi Ce's strength lies in his flexible running position in the frontcourt to give full play to his greatest advantage-that is, the so-called flash of light in the media. If you want to designate interference For some opposing players, this puts the cart before the horse. Basically, there will only be opponents against Qi Ce, and there will be no Qi Ce against the opponent.

This will also affect Qi Ce's own performance.

You come and go in the first half. Unlike Mourinho, Klopp can only be regarded as a little-known star coach, but he has shown that he is not lost to Mourinho in this game. potential.

Facing Mourinho's Real Madrid, Klopp's Dortmund technicians did not have the same strategy and did not fall behind!

The first half of the game was also an offensive and defensive drill.

But it is not a unilateral offensive and defensive drill, but the two teams have this kind of offensive and defensive with each other. According to the evaluation of the media, this is a textbook football game.

Klopp's offense and high pressure, pressing, Mourinho's defense and quick counterattack, each team scored a goal, are the perfect embodiment of tactics.

Dortmund's goal came when Lewandowski interfered in front of Xavi Alonso, who made a rare error in his pass and sent the ball between Gourcuff and Khedira, Gurcuff The distance is relatively far, causing Khedira to have to run up to get the ball.

And Bender won the competition with Khedira. He sent a direct pass forward, Royce took the ball to create chaos, and Lewandowski followed up with a low shot in the penalty area to break through Real Madrid's goal!

In the difficult moment of falling behind, it was Ronaldo who stood up on Real Madrid's side.

But a very important point is Harvey Alonso. As Klopp expected, Harvey Alonso is the card dealer of Real Madrid's offense. His passing direction is the direction of Real Madrid's offense. The mistake just now is nothing more than an accident.

Alonso's long pass directly found Benzema who was in front of him.

As the season progressed, Mourinho gradually discovered that the Frenchman may be the best partner to stimulate Ronaldo's full potential, so this season he also arranged more for Benzema's starting partner Ronaldo.

This ball is proof that after Benzema stopped the ball beautifully, he did not pass the ball out immediately, but attracted more firepower to himself.

Then pass the ball out!

Of course Piszczek knew that he couldn't relax his marking on Ronaldo, but he couldn't support it alone, and the ball was given to Ronaldo in a good position. Benzema, under the double-team defense of several people, waited for Ronaldo to move to the final position. Good position, send a pass.

This is the cooperation between Benzema and Ronaldo, and the subsequent things are simple. Ronaldo entered the penalty area with speed and faced Weidenfeller semi-single-handedly.

With Ronaldo's finishing ability, he will not miss this opportunity.

The half-time score made Dortmund fans very enjoyable to watch. In fact, Dortmund fans are the same as the players in this game. There is basically no psychological pressure. It is completely acceptable for them to qualify in the group of death. The pressure is on Real Madrid here.

The fans were a little bit dissatisfied at the beginning with the lack of starting Qi Ce, but after seeing such a wonderful game, the fans also began to realize that their head coach does not actually rely on Qi Ce as the media said!

It is true that most of the games were won by Zize, but the position of Zize was replaced by Lewandowski, so that Klopp's system can play "moderately" more often, and it may not be able to achieve With Qi Ce's record when he was there, but I think it won't be too bad!

Obviously, talented players of Zize's level are here to determine the upper limit of the team. The head coaches can't play in person, but what they can decide is the lower limit of the team.

At the end of the half-time game, Klopp greeted the players on the sidelines. He was very satisfied with the state of the game. Real Madrid is a real super strong team, maybe even stronger than Bayern Munich. In the first half without Zize, Dortmund and Real Madrid tied, this result is also considered very good.

The second half is the key to the outcome.
