In the remaining 10 minutes, Werder Bremen still maintained a high-pressure posture against Schalke 04.

Fortunately, the combination of Pizarro and Rosenborg was not a KK combination, and Ozil was not Diego, and the ability to seize opportunities in front of goal was still lacking, and the score could not be extended again.

Ruten did not continue to direct the game from the sidelines for the remainder of the first half, but returned to the dugout to discuss with assistant coach Mulder how to make adjustments.

The result of the discussion between the two for a long time was that there was no way to make personnel adjustments, and there was really no midfielder with outstanding defensive ability on the bench, but there was still room for adjustment in tactics.

Mulder suggested that Zhang Yuan should play the shadow forward position in the middle in the second half, and let Kuranyi and Altentop Jr. play double center, Zhang Yuan has also played such a position before, but when he goes to the middle to face the veteran Bowman, who has a stronger defense, Mulder is not sure that Zhang Yuan can play well in the middle.

Luten rejected Mulder's suggestion, believing that Schaff's team's two full-backs were very good at assisting, and Zhang Yuan was more advantageous to move on the wing, but in the first half, Schalke 04's midfield was completely suppressed, and Zhang Yuan had too few opportunities to get the ball, which caused him to do nothing.

His proposition is to adjust the midfield, stabilize the midfield, give Zhang Yuan a chance to get the ball, and use Zhang Yuan's side as the main direction of attack.

The referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, and Luten took his notebook to leave the dugout first, and he had to go to the dressing room to make a tactical diagram and tell the players later.

Schaaf was not particularly happy with the result in the first half, dominating but only scoring one goal, which is not safe, the two full-backs took turns in the first half, and it was a lot of physical exertion, and it may be a bit difficult to continue this kind of attack in the second half, and now he misses super striker Klose and healthy Krasnic, if only there were two goals.

Zhang Yuan looked helpless, he played too poorly in the first half, he rarely got the ball, and the threat was naturally impossible to talk about, not only his forward line Kuranyi and Altentop Jr. were depressed.

In the first half of the on-the-spot adjustment, Lu Teng always set Zhang Yuan and Kuranyi in the forward position, intending to use Zhang Yuan's speed to counterattack, and Altentop Jr. retreated in time to help defend, but it did not play a big role, he did not play a big role in holding the ball as strong as Zhang Yuanqiang, and his defensive ability was half a pound and two with Zhang Yuan.

Rakitic picked up his shirt and wiped the sweat on his face, the first half was too hard, the weather was a little hot in today's game, Rakitic ran a lot in the first half, his defensive ability was not good, he could only make up for it with diligent running.

Defensively speaking, Schalke 04's defense was a success, and apart from Mesut Ozil's brilliant assist, it didn't give Werder Bremen many absolute chances.

Seeing Zhang Yuan coming over, he reached out and patted Zhang Yuan's shoulder, and the two of them returned to the locker room without saying anything.

Wiping sweat in the away dressing room, he sat under the seat under the closet and listened to the tactics of manager Luten plan the second half.

'Everyone worked hard in the first half but it was quite against us, but they only had a goal advantage! Is the advantage of one goal a lot? Is it a lot? I don't think it's much at all, I'm sure we'll be able to recover in the second half, we'll be able to get the win, boys, do you believe in yourself? Do you believe we will win? ”

After the first half of the game, the morale of the players of Schalke 04 has dropped, and Rüten's words have rekindled everyone's fighting spirit, the game is not over, and they still have to play again.

Of course, the players will not have hope because of Lu Teng's few words, such as Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan still hopes that the head coach can come up with any measures.

"In the second half we need to attack, but we don't plan to make changes in terms of personnel, I need your formation to move forward, and the two lines in the middle and back have to be pressed up a little bit!"

Many players have questions about such an arrangement, pressing on? So Werder Bremen's offense doesn't matter?

'Defensively, the second half requires more effort from the back line and the midfielders have to focus on attacking! Luten continued.

Ruten's meaning couldn't be more obvious, the back line had to bear more responsibility and pressure in the second half, and his tactical meaning was made clear in just two sentences, he needed the team to attack, not to be passive in the middle of the field as in the first half.

In the first half, everyone knew that they could defend to 0:1, and the midfielder definitely made a big effort, and the relentless running of the midfield allowed Werder Bremen to have a limited chance to attack the Schalke 04 penalty area.

Now Lu Teng's tactical arrangement, several defenders are unhappy from the heart, no one wants to concede the ball, they especially don't want to, the team's defense is a whole, the midfielder uses his energy to attack, and the pressure is naturally more on the defenders.

Lu Teng is really the coach who came out of the Eredivisie, the Eredivisie is more open, and he pays attention to attack, he hopes that Schalke 04 will attack in an all-round way, and there is a meaning of attacking instead of defending, but he doesn't want to think that Werder Bremen will easily lose control of the midfield? !

Slander is slander, but no one questioned that Lu Teng is the new coach, and everyone wants to jump out and go against the new coach at this time.

As a striker, Zhang Yuan will not think so comprehensively, he believes that there is no problem with Lu Teng's arrangement, the midfield is up, and the defensive risk coefficient is high, but this can provide more support to the front line, and will not always solve the problem with long passes as in the first half.

Luten's arrangement is actually not a way to deal with it, Schalke 04 midfield defense is not enough, but it is not that it does not have organizational skills, on the contrary, the organizational ability is still good, the first half frequently in the backfield long passes, the reason is still less ball, Werder Bremen pressed again, the midfielder is unwilling to make mistakes in the backfield, can only passively choose long passes.

In the home dressing room, Schaaf also expressed his displeasure, telling the players that the game must be won, a goal in the first half was a bit embarrassing, he spoke and no one dared to object, because he was the most solid in the club.

If someone asks Werder Bremen fans who is the most important team, I believe many fans will choose Schaaf, he is not only an old courtier, but also allows fans to taste the championship again, and is deeply loved by Werder Bremen fans.

Mesut Ozil played very well in the first half, with excellent passing ability, keeping the midfield firmly in control with Frings and providing a brilliant assist.

But just like Zhang Yuan, both of them are geniuses, but you can't expect Ozil to pass ten or eight imaginative and creative threat balls in one game, nor can you expect Zhang Yuan to be able to ride the savior's good play alone in every game.

Werder Bremen's front pair of Pizarro and Rosenborg were a bit of an embarrassment, both of whom had squandered few chances to help the team score another goal, and if they continued their first-half performance in the second half, Schaff would definitely replace one of them, with Portuguese striker Almeida and Ivory Coast striker Sanogo on the bench, both of whom are available at any time.

The 15-minute break passed quickly, and the players from both sides returned to the pitch to start the second half.

Schalke 04 took the lead in pressing the opening strong attack on Werder Bremen, and Werder Bremen faced Schalke 04 who judged the two teams, and they were really tired of parrying for a while.

In the 46th minute, Zhang Yuan received a direct pass from Rakitic, faced Pasane's defense, two fake fax dunks in a row, completely shook off Pasanen's center of gravity, went down, crossed, Kuranyi grabbed the front point, and the header was slightly higher than the crossbar.

In the 47th minute, Kobiashvili made a long pass to Altentop Jr. on the right side, Altentop Jr. headed the ball to Rakitic in the middle, Rakitic plugged it straight, Kuranyi fell to the ground and scrambled, Wiese saved the ball, Zhang Yuan followed up with a low shot, and the ball hit the side netting.

Schaff saw Schalke 04 actually attack regardless of the back, and actually played his team a little embarrassed, but he thought about it and it was good, his team didn't score more goals in the first half because the opponent recovered too much, it was really not easy to break the defense, and now that the opponent is out, it is just to give Werder Bremen space to attack.

The key is to withstand this period of time to start, Schalke 04 will definitely lose momentum for a long time, and then it will be the opportunity for Werder Bremen, he believes that his midfield will definitely not be suppressed by the opponent and unable to act.

Tactics are sometimes like this, change the coach, change the angle, get a different idea, in the first half Schalke 04 retreated but it was difficult to play an effective defensive counterattack, but now Schaff believes that his team can play a defensive counterattack in the face of opposition pressure.
