Tang Zheng didn't read Ozil's smile, but he smiled slightly out of politeness, and then shook the next Werder Bremen player. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This league game is important for Borussia Dortmund, who have won three consecutive league games in the past to finish in the top six, but many German media outlets believe that Dortmund's results are not convincing, after all, they have only beaten Schalke 04 2-0 at home against all the big teams.

Given the peculiarities of the Ruhr derby, the win was also greatly diminished, meaning that a league win away to Werder Bremen would be a testament to Dortmund's significant improvement this season.

Borussia Dortmund have not won a game against a strong team so far, losing 1:4 to Hamburg in the second round of the league and 0:2 to Bayer Leverkusen in the eighth round.

These two games fully illustrate that Dortmund's away ability is weak and has a serious home dragon tendency.

Think about it, in the past eleven rounds of the league, they have been unbeaten in the past six rounds at home, with four wins and two draws, and two wins, one draw and two losses in five away league games, and the two games that won were against either relegation teams or promoted horses, and the suspense of winning was not much, so it was not very convincing.

On the other hand, the media is not very optimistic about Dortmund's road trip.

However, ten minutes on, Werder Bremen, who have always been good at attacking, have not posed any threat to Dortmund's backline, and their midfield core Ozil seems to be in trouble in the middle, but it is the visiting Borussia Dortmund who are playing well.

Head coach Schaff stood on the sidelines and shook his head repeatedly, Ozil's ability is undoubted, but he has a fatal flaw that is too poor in physical confrontation, or fear of physical confrontation.

There is no way to face Tang Zheng, who has an advantage in height and weight, and there is also a full-time defensive midfielder Sven Bender, who plays very embarrassed.

The back two of Frings and Borowski were keen to help Mesut Ozil, but Klopp had a targeted plan for this game, and they did not dare to go too far forward and were more afraid of Dortmund's quick counter-attack.

They can only try to plug in occasionally, but they will all be noticed by Tang Zheng, who has a good sense of position.

So whether they cut in or passed, they didn't get a corresponding return.

German Sky commentator Marcel Leif said excitedly: "Don's performance is really good, he has limited Werder Bremen's attack very much during this time, I can now be very responsible to say, if it wasn't for Don's excellent performance in defence, I guess Weidenfeller's goal would have been breached......"

The continuous defense gave Klopp a hint of danger, and he knew that Schaff's Werder Bremen was a rare attacking maniac in the Bundesliga.

Regardless of whether the opponent is promoted or Bayern Munich, it is one word - do!

It's very scary for this kind of team to go crazy, either you die or I die!

And there are often big scores......

In the past two minutes, Klopp took advantage of a dead ball opportunity to make a subtle gesture towards Tang Zheng to strengthen the attack.

Seeing Klopp's gesture, Tang Zheng nodded fiercely, because he had been waiting for a long time!

Defending to the extreme can only ensure that the team does not lose, but it can never help the team win the game.

The offense is different, as long as you score one more goal than the other side, it's a win!

※※※

As the clock ticked on, Werder Bremen at home began to feel the visitors' comeback.

They tend to move from defence to attack, using Tang Zheng's precise long balls to hang down the two flanks, and Kuba and Grosskreutz are the kind of players who are quick and can often pose a certain threat.

In particular, Werder Bremen's defensive right side, that is, Dortmund's attacking left side, is the focus of Tang Zheng's long pass.

Fritz is not a professional right-back and his defensive awareness is not as good as that of a true right-back.

Grosskreutz had a quick run into the inside line, and if it weren't for Naldo's timely protection, Dortmund would have been able to break the deadlock first with a quick counter-attack.

In this regard, Schaff had to ask the team to pay attention to the number of people in the attack, and asked the two full-backs not to press at the same time.

The midfielders of Frijns and Borowski have also been limited in their forward press, with the pressure increasing as the central midfielder Ozil receives less and less support.

Tang Zheng and Sven Bender's partnership has been very consistent in the past four league games, and the two usually communicate a lot in private, and many times the defense only needs a glance to know what the opponent needs, and Ozil seems to be alone without the support of Frings and Borowski.

It's not that Frings and Borowski don't want to support, but they don't dare to get too close in the face of Dortmund's efficient and quick counter-attacks.

Chinese New Year's Eve, Frings is very experienced and has a precise long-range shot, but his physical fitness is not at all comparable to that of his youth, especially the speed of the return.

Borowski's best position is not a midfielder, but an attacking midfielder, and now Ozil, who plays in midfield, has performed well, he goes to play wide and lacks speed, so he can only choose a starting position, but his ability to move is a problem, and his speed is slower than Frings, who is over 30 years old......

Tang Zheng has a strong ability to read the game, and he is keenly aware that Werder Bremen is starting to focus on defense, so he makes eye contact with Sven Bender, and he consciously increases the range of forwards.

Long balls can be very effective, but they can be ineffective when used frequently, especially when the two tall centre-backs of Mertesacker and Naldo have strengthened their support on the flanks, and launching a counterattack with a long pass is equivalent to returning possession to Werder Bremen.

Counter-attacking with long balls is not Dortmund's best attacking style, as they threaten Werder Bremen's goal with fluid runs and penetrating passes.

Hainaul is the kind of traditional midfielder who is short in stature and agile and good at passing through the ball, and Tang Zheng's back insertion and targeted passing make Werder Bremen gradually fall into passivity at home.

Therefore, the Werder Bremen fans at the Weser Stadium felt very depressed, and they had been pressing Dortmund to play before, how could the situation change after a while?

Unscientific!

In fact, part of the reason is that Werder Bremen are too good at attacking, and they may not have exposed many problems against other Bundesliga teams, but it is a little difficult to face Dortmund, who are gradually understanding Klopp's attacking and defensive philosophy.

In particular, the central midfielder Mesut Ozil's role in defence is completely negligible, unlike Borussia Dortmund, any player has to run when defending.

Even Barrios, who are at the top of the pitch, must press Werder Bremen's backfield handler to form an effective tight defense and cut through the opposition's effective passes.

※※※

Mesut Ozil was a frustrating player, his characteristics were not used at all in this game, and he was not good at physical confrontation and sometimes even struggled to control the ball at his feet.

No, in the twenty-third minute of the game, Tang Zheng stepped forward with his long legs when Ozil stopped the ball too much, first stuck the position, and then pouted his ass to block Ozil behind him.

Tang Zheng, who got the football, did not pass the ball immediately, he saw that the distance between Frings and Borowski was a little far, so he simply took the ball forward.

For Tang Zheng's sudden change, Frings and Borowski were a little unexpected, in the past, Tang Zheng's first reaction after winning the ball was to pass the ball, but now he actually chooses to bring it himself?

Borowski made eye contact with captain Frings, and then strode towards Tang Zheng.

Even if you can't get the ball off, you have to at least keep the ball in place.

Ozil looked at the big '6' and was very upset.

Even if you look more handsome than me, you still steal the limelight from me on my home turf?

No!

As a result, Schaaf, who was standing on the sidelines, rarely saw Ozil take the initiative to defend.

Tang Zheng noticed that Borowski was rushing over, and he flicked the ball to the right front from a distance away, changing direction!

Borowski is tall and big, with a high center of gravity, it is difficult to turn his body at the first time, and the spatial distance keeps him away from Tang Zheng, which means that his active forward defense this time is equivalent to useless work.

Just when he regretted it, he saw Ozil take the initiative to return to the defense and chase Tang Zheng, and he felt a little more comfortable.

But just as he stopped and ran back, he suddenly thought of Shaf's important advice before the game - if Don himself took the ball and attacked forward, he must not let him start.

The meaning is obvious, that is, Tang Zheng, who is fully speeded, is like a giant sports car, which is difficult to stop!

Really!

Ozil, who gritted his teeth and ran with all his might, did not narrow the distance between him and Tang Zheng, but expanded it a little.

Frings wondered if he should defend himself as he fought and retreated, but he feared he would be overtaken like Borowski.

Next, Tang Zheng helped him make a choice.

Tang Zheng passed the ball to Hainauer, who was in a half-circle arc on his side, and then moved forward without the ball.

As the last barrier in front of the centre-backs, Frings must focus on defending the ball carriers.

As for Tang Zheng, who runs without the ball, there will naturally be defenders who pay attention.

Ozil chased for more than ten meters, and found that he had not shortened the distance with Tang Zheng, and the young man's unique strength made him accelerate with all his strength.

It's just that...... Tang Zheng was faster when he ran without the ball.

The distance between the two has not only not decreased, but has been stretched wider and wider.

Seeing that Frings came up, there was no sticky ball at his feet, and he pushed the ball sideways, and the ball returned to the feet of Tang Zheng who had crossed the halfway line.

Frings went over to defend Tang Zheng too late.

At this time, the tall central defender Naldo rushed up.

Right foot forward, fall to the ground and slide!

"Whoa, whoa—"

A burst of shouts erupted over the Weser Stadium, cheering for Naldo!

The next moment, however, the sound stopped abruptly.

Tang Zheng's long left leg stepped forward on the ball, and then pulled the ball back violently, just to avoid Naldo's reckless tackle, and then his right foot replaced the ball, and his body re-oriented to the offensive direction!

"Oh-my-god!!" exclaimed Marcel Leif "Marseille Roundabout!" (To be continued.) )
