As the game entered the 20th minute, the referee finally realized that he could not continue to play the whistle, otherwise the match would become an indelible black history in his law enforcement career. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the next few fouls, the referee successively showed yellow cards to players on both sides, whether it was a tactical foul or an intentional foul, all of them were yellow cards.

Of course, giving a yellow card directly does not calm both sides.

The referee calls the physical contact player to his side before giving a yellow card, then gives the basis for the decision, and finally gives the yellow card, which is tantamount to convincing them.

Slowly, the game got back on track and the players on both sides began to focus more on the game.

The same hot scene as before did not appear again, Klopp and Magath no longer stood on the sidelines and cursed frequently, they focused more on how to break through the opposition defense and solve their own attacking problems.

Neither side has contributed a good quality attack for the next 20 minutes, which means that neither side has yet to have a shot on target.

In the words of Yang 5 commentator Duan Huo: "If this continues, I am afraid that Neuer and Weidenfeller will fall asleep in Westfalun." ”

After another two minutes, Klopp shouted at Tang Zheng on the field: "You and Nuri should take turns to step forward to participate in the attack, don't stand too dead in position, be flexible, and if the situation allows, you can shoot from a distance." ”

Tang Zheng waved at Klopp to show that he understood, and then walked towards Shaheen: "Nuri, our division of labor must be more detailed, otherwise it will be difficult for the team's attack to play a sense of layering." ”

"How about you're in charge of the midfield link during this period and I'm in charge of sweeping and distributing the balls," Shaheen suggested.

Tang Zheng had felt the signal of goodwill released by Sha Xin before, but he was not surprised, he nodded.

Jurgen Klopp, who was standing on the sidelines, didn't know what was going on with Tang Zheng and Shahin, but he found that there was a clear division of labor between the two on the field, which was a good sign.

If Tang Zheng and Sha Xin, who have an unclear division of labor, are 1+1=2, then it is definitely greater than two now.

Tang Zheng pressed forward, directly relieving the organizational pressure of the forward Hajnaul, and at the same time, it also caused the defensive pressure at the front of the Schalke 04 penalty area to increase suddenly.

The increase in the number of points up front also allows the two wide players to press forward boldly, and even the full-backs can push up to the winger position.

Schalke 04's defensive pressure increased, and manager Magath could not sit down any longer, he walked to the sideline and motioned for Farfan who was on the front line to come back to assist in the midfield defense.

Schalke 04, which originally had a three-five-two formation, instantly became a three-six-one formation, with one more person in the midfield, and the space was utilized, while also restricting the movement space of Dortmund's midfielders.

One of the most constrained is Hajnaul, who is a decent player who can use his excellent foot skills and flexible body to create chances when he is less crowded, but as the number of midfielders increases, his space is compressed to the extreme.

In this regard, Tang Zheng had to increase his activity space.

In order to revitalize the team's offense, Tang Zheng left his own traces of heat in almost every position in the frontcourt.

Through the effect of the change in formation on the field, Magath returned to the coach's seat with satisfaction and raised Erlang's legs.

The three-six-one formation looks very negative, but in fact it is a huge threat, as long as the ball is broken, then the three-six-one can instantly become three-four-three.

With Borussia Dortmund's two full-backs coming in frequently, he believes the effect of counter-attacks will increase exponentially.

However, the next development seems to be a little beyond Magath's expectations, because Tang Zheng connects Dortmund's overall attack through his own running, and he never passes the ball blindly unless the opportunity is good.

Shaheen was behind him to protect and distribute the ball to the wing, and the two had a clear division of work.

In addition, even if the crosses from the two wings are cleared, Tang Zheng's success rate in competing for the second landing point is very high, so that Schalke 04 seems very passive in these few minutes, as if he is conducting a half-court offensive and defensive drill.

Seeing this, Magath shook his head, it was really a big loss not to buy Tang Zheng this summer.

If it weren't for the sake of face, he would have invited him in person like Klopp.

Ay......

It's a pity.

※※※

Tang Zheng pulled Schalke 04's defence through continuous running, but he couldn't find the right passing point, striker Barrios was caught in the box, and Hajnaul got lost in the meat grinder.

So he decided to try the feeling of long-range shooting, facing a dense defense except for set-pieces, which is a long-range shot!

In the thirtieth minute of the game, Tang Zheng parked the football in a very comfortable position in a very comfortable position, and Raphinha chose to start from the side and back.

But Tang Zheng had a left arm, and Raphinha, who lacked arm length, was ruthlessly blocked by Tang Zheng, and then rushed to complete a long-range shot before Hevedes came up.

The soccer ball flew into the air with a 'boom' sound, and Hwedez's outstretched left foot did not touch the ball, and everyone's attention was focused on the soccer ball in mid-air without a trace of spinning.

I saw the No. 2 goalkeeper of the German national team in front of the goal, Neuer, jumping sideways, and gently rubbing the fingers of his left hand against the fast-flying football.

It was also this gentle rub that changed the trajectory of the ball, grazing the outer edge of the goal post on the far right side and flying out of the bottom line.

Corner kick!

"Whoa, whoa—"

A loud cry of regret erupted over Westphalun Stadium.

When Neuer got up from the ground, he was very angry, he took a few steps forward, and yelled at his teammates: "Pay attention to the protection of the edge of the penalty area, don't let them get up easily!"

It takes a certain amount of luck to score from a distance, but Neuer is not sure that Dortmund's long-range shot will not be unlucky next time, and he does not always save the ball, and the only way to stop conceding a ball is to limit the opponent's kick.

Raphinha and Hwedes waved at Neuer, indicating that they understood.

In the next corner kick, Tang Zheng received a pass from Hajnaul in the middle of the penalty area, but unfortunately he did not exert power under the interference of Hevedes, and the football was easily confiscated by Neuer.

Neuer, who held the football with both hands, did not kick the ball out or throw it, he slapped the football a few times, consciously controlling the tempo on the field.

At this time, Tang Zheng ran back while looking at Neuer to prevent him from throwing the ball with his hand or launching a counterattack with his big foot.

When he walked to Shaheen, he stopped, stretched out his right hand and turned his head and said, "Nuri, you go forward, I'll defend and divide the ball." ”

Sha Xin stretched out his hand to meet Tang Zheng and nodded.

This scene happened to be seen by manager Jurgen Klopp, and there was a rare smile on his nervous face.

The coexistence of Tang Zheng and Shahin is his ideal midfield partner, and the ability of the vice-captain Kyle is there, but he is too limited to defense and has limited offensive ability, and at most he can only work as a part-time metronome.

Tang Zheng and Shahin are different, they have good defensive ability and strong offensive ability.

Especially Tang Zheng, he always feels that there is still potential to be tapped.

Of course, Kyle's defensive ferocity is something they don't have.

It's just that his glass physique seriously limits his playing time in this team.

※※※

Shahin is very spiritual in terms of offense, but his body is not tough enough and he doesn't like frequent physical confrontations, which is very different from Tang Zheng.

His weakness can easily lead to conceding goals, but his excellent foot skills are also good at work, at least in many cases, when it looks like he is about to lose the ball but still controls the ball well.

But the Schalke 04 players took advantage of their large numbers in the middle to seek frequent physical contact, starting with the off-ball phase.

Previously, Tang Zheng could compete with the Schalke 04 players with a tough style of play with good physical fitness, but Shahin did not have Tang Zheng's physical fitness.

However, fortunately, Tang Zheng's protection was very good, and he was able to make accurate judgments at the moment when Shaheen lost the ball, and failed to let Schalke 04 fight back on the spot.

Next, Shaheen consciously reduced the number of times he dribbled forward, and he sought cooperation.

As time went on, Tang Zheng gradually gained more footballs, and instead of giving the ball to Shaheen or Hajnaur, he passed the ball to both flanks, taking advantage of the width of the pitch.

Frequent passing and receiving in the middle has familiarized Schalke 04 with Dortmund's attacking routine, and it is not a wise choice to continue to choose to attack the middle.

The combination of the side and the middle is the king!

Klopp gave a thumbs up to Tang Zheng's choice, because it was the best choice Tang Zheng made by himself through the game situation.

"Don's reading contest ability is really strong!"

Michael Reti, who has been with Deutsche TV2 for many years, praises.

Seeing the ball on the side, Tang Zheng subconsciously wanted to go forward to fight for the top in the penalty area, but thought that Sha Xin had already gone to the front, and there was no one behind him to protect him, so he dispelled this idea.

Now I still have a yellow card on my back, and it's not fun to have two yellows and one red when it's a little worse.

With Shaheen and Hainaur frequently passing the ball to Tang Zheng, his handling of the ball became particularly important.

That's when his precise ability to move the ball was on full display in the Ruhr derby.

It was only then that Klopp realized that Tang Zheng was known for his accurate long passes and scheduling in the early days of his debut.

He wondered if it would be better if Dortmund replicated the quick counter-attacking tactics of River Plate's early days.

Both Kooba and Grosskreuz were quick and good on the counter-attack.

Soon, he dismissed the idea.

This style of play is too monotonous, and you can try to play a strong team, but the general Bundesliga is still not necessary, especially at Westphaladium Stadium, if you let the opponent attack, it will definitely not be a good fruit to eat, and it will also have a serious conflict with your own coaching philosophy.

It's just that now, Klopp's positioning of Tang Zheng has become blurred again.

In addition to the relatively difficult play in the front midfield, every position in the midfield is more than flexible.

Headache.

In the process of Klopp's contemplation, Tang Zheng got the football and pretended to cooperate with Shahin, but the ball was pulled back with the sole of his foot, and he quickly got up and passed to the right side of his own attack.

Kuba's inward positioning left the forward right-back Owomoyela unmarked!
