Chapter Eighty-Four: World Waves
In the 28th minute, Werder Bremen launched a counter-attack, and Rosenberg volleyed unguarded near the penalty area, and the angle was too good to be confiscated by Neuer. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Schalke 04 didn't have the best chance until the 31st minute, Zhang Yuan dribbled through Baumann, passed the blocked Mertesacker on the left side of the Werder Bremen penalty area, and shot with his feet near the small penalty area, the ball was too straight and hit Wiese's arms.
It was Zhang Yuan's first shot in the first half and Schalke 04's third shot in the first half.
It's a pity that this opportunity was missed, and Schalke 04 fans hugged their heads and regretted it!
After that, the two teams reverted to a stalemate and went into half-time, with the score still 0:0.
At half-time, Buskens and Mulder reshuffled their tactics.
"In the second half, we have to use more long balls, Zhang Yuan, you have to be in front of you to fight for the top! Gerrard, Jefferson, you have to play more high balls on the wing! Ivan lean a little further, pay attention to the second point!" Buskens instructed several players.
Everyone nodded, Zhang Yuan didn't like this style of play very much, he preferred the cooperation on the ground, and fighting for the top was not his strong point, but he wouldn't say it now, long passes are a good way to fight in the rain, and he had no reason to question the coach's decision.
He doesn't want to let himself go, so he has to follow the coach's arrangement!
"You have to work hard in the second half and score as soon as possible!" Zhang Yuan thought to himself, knowing that if he couldn't complete the task of fighting for the top of Buskens and Mulder up front and didn't score, then he was likely to be replaced by Kuranyi, who was good at headers.
At the end of the fifteen-minute break, the two sides resumed the game, and Zhang Yuan was pulled by Buskens as he left the locker room door.
"Zhang Yuan, you have to work hard! In the second half, you should strengthen your long-range shots from outside the penalty area! You should try this way on this rainy day, maybe you will score!" Buskens patted Zhang Yuan on the shoulder and said.
Long shot?!Why didn't I think of that?!
Zhang Yuan only woke up a little at this time, he should indeed strengthen his long-range shooting on this rainy day, but he didn't think of this stubble in the first half, he didn't have a long-range shot, and he should try in the second half.
After the start of the second half, Werder Bremen's side still did not change their tactics, Schaff's consistent style of play, the two full-backs were used more frequently, and it was still the same today, but the effect was reduced.
On the one hand, the midfielder is inseparable from Schalke 04 and has a limited number of insertions, and on the other hand, Fritz and Bernisch are not of high quality in such rainy crosses, and their own level is limited.
Fritz even once kicked a big ball directly on the flank, flying into the crowd behind the goal, causing a chorus of boos from the fans.
Schalke 04 began to use long passes frequently according to the head coach's arrangement, Zhang Yuan's header is indeed not a strong point, especially Mertesacker's family and Naldo are big men of more than 1.9 meters, Zhang Yuan really can't take advantage of anything.
In the 60th minute, Buskens made substitution adjustments, the middle Kobiashvili was replaced by Englar, Asamoah was replaced by Kulanyi, and the formation was adjusted to 442, playing a double striker.
Kuranyi went up front to fight for the header, Zhang Yuan played the second striker position, Rakitic played on the left, and Farfan played on the right side of the midfield.
In the middle, Jones and Engal were mainly responsible for interception, and Buskens saw that Zhang Yuan's header was really not dominant, but he was reluctant to replace Zhang Yuan, so he sacrificed the tactic of two strikers and sent Kuranyi to relieve the pressure on Zhang Yuan.
This trick is very effective, because there is a Kuran Yi top, Zhang Yuan's movement is more free, and he can go to the middle lane on both sides.
Kuranyi is out of form and can still be a good guy up front, with Mertesacker and Naldo both keeping their eyes on Kuranyi, who is a good header in their imagery.
In the 65th minute, Farfan went down and shook off Bernisch's cross, Kuranyi fought hard to top the ball to Zhang Yuan on the left side of the penalty area, and after Zhang Yuan got the ball, Mertesacker immediately pressed up.
Long arms and long legs are also advantages, a poke, Zhang Yuan's ball fell, but Zhang Yuan reacted quickly, turned around and caught up with the ball again, this time it was his back again, and it was a bit troublesome to get rid of Mertesacker completely.
Zhang Yuan swiped the ball with his left foot, a feint of reversing the bicycle, and then immediately cut crosswise with his right foot, and without waiting for Mertesacker to stretch his leg, he directly shot from a distance.
Whether you can score or not depends on feeling, it all depends on luck, Zhang Yuan just judged the position of the goal according to the direction he just received the ball just now, and at this time he came to the goal by feeling.
Zhang Yuan shot directly with the instep of his foot, the purpose was to kick a landing ball and bounce off the ground in front of the goal.
He did, and model Sartre stretched out his long legs and failed to touch the ball, and the ball bounced off the slippery ground in the air, affecting Wiese's judgment of the ball's trajectory.
Kicking the ground sideways, Zhang Yuan's sudden long-range shot finally beat Wiese and drilled into the bottom left corner of the Werder Bremen gate.
Schalke 04 led Werder Bremen 1-0 at home, and Zhang Yuan scored a crucial goal in his first comeback game in the league.
Buskens jumped up in the coaching area, turned around and hugged Mulder as he ran.
"I'll just say that kid will do it! I'll say that kid will do it!" Buskens said excitedly to Mulder.
When the substitution just now, Mulder proposed that Zhang Yuan should not play an obvious role in the front court under the current tactics, so it was better to replace it and let Kuranyi fight for the header, but Buskens refused to live or die, insisting that Zhang Yuan should stay on the field.
As a result, he made the right bet, and Zhang Yuan knocked on the opponent's door with a world wave, taking the lead for Schalke 04.
“goa………… A world wave from our Lightning Kid Zhang Yuan!Got the lead for us! The Lightning Kid who just came back obviously didn't need any adaptation, he adapted to the game perfectly! Let's cheer Lightning Boy --- Zhang Yuan!" The on-site commentary may have not made a call for the home team to score for a long time, and this time he dragged on for a long time.
"blitz!blitz......" Schalke 04 fans shouted!
After Zhang Yuan scored a goal, he also ran to the fans under the stands and interacted with them, after the game started in the second half, the Schalke 04 fans were a little unable to sit still, will the team only play this kind of long pass rushing?!
There were boos in the stadium, boos for the coaches and players of the home team, but when you score, you can forget everything!
The interaction between Zhang Yuan and the fans stimulated the enthusiasm of the fans, and Zhang Yuan signaled the fans to cheer out at the end of the celebration!
Schaaf squatted in the coaching area before the goal, and only got back up after the goal, helplessly spreading his hands, and there was no solution to the world wave!
Werder Bremen's players were a bit hit, especially Mesut Ozil, who stared at Zhang Yuan with both eyes a little helpless.
Mesut Ozil has not been in good form so far in this game, and he has been followed by Jones in the midfield position and has not been able to exploit his passing advantage.
At this time, he felt that Zhang Yuan's golden boy was well deserved, he was really inferior to Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan's performance in this game was not good, but sometimes he could decide the game with a flash of inspiration, but he couldn't do it yet.
When the game was restarted, the morale of the Schalke 04 players was high, and Werder Bremen did not make any adjustments on Schaff's side, but replaced Bernisch with Passanen, Bernisch, the veteran of Schalke 04, was not only booed by the fans like Ozil in this game, but also played like Ozil, and the pass Farfan just now passed through his side.
Schaaf is back in the coaching area, which is a habit of him, and Schaaf's level of on-the-spot command and substitutions as head coach is fair to say that it needs to be improved.
Generally, his formation and tactics are fixed, and he always fights to the end with this tactic, and when he encounters a smooth wind, the opponent can't stop him, and when he encounters a bad situation, he is often deflated to the end.
Just like at this time, after Buskens adjusted to 442, the two midfielders were dedicated to interception, and the wing Rakitic and Farfan suppressed the attack of Werder Bremen, and Werder Bremen had no way to attack the heart of Schalke 04.
In the 80th minute, Schaff made a second substitution, bringing on Harnick for Rosenberg.
Hannick has a better ability to handle the ball than Rosenberg, and Scharf is only then trying to change the situation by strengthening the frontcourt players, but it is all over.
The time was soon over, with Schalke 04 winning 1-0 at home to Werder Bremen to secure three points. (To be continued.) )
