Chapter 62: Consciousness is More Important Than Body

'Frankly, we didn't play well in the first half. www.biquge.info I created very few chances, and although Gotze saved a penalty, Aubameyang wasted it. Dicker's expression was serious, "Gotze has improved a lot from the last game in this game, but his performance still does not meet the expectations of the fans, and Gotze lacks the responsibility that he should have as a core player." When the team is in a difficult situation, I hope Gotze can step up and sometimes courage is really more important than talent. ”

"Before commenting on the first half, I suddenly remembered something. I remember in Dortmund's second warm-up match against Wuppertal, there was a player who snatched Kagawa's free-kick and managed to score it. Yes, this player is Pang. I bring this up just to tell you that Dortmund is a collective, every player has to be like Pong, have the courage to stand up and score for the team, we need players who are responsible. Rupert said solemnly, "I also want to complain about the team's defense, I can't take it anymore, I think coach Tuchel should seriously strengthen the defensive training, because our defense is really bad." ”

"Dude, I agree with you." Dicker chimed in, "I think the biggest weakness of Dortmund at the moment is the defense. It's disappointing for a team that wants to win the title to concede goals in every game. ”

In the dressing room, coach Thomas Tuchel is summing up the first half. Coach Tuchel continued to explain how his team should attack and how to move up front, and it wasn't until the end of the break that he gave a few words to the defenders.

The fat man knows this is Coach Tuchel, a man with a very strong personality. Whether they are behind or ahead, Dortmund's players always put attack first on the field, destroy the opponent with attack, lead defense with attack, and replace defense with attack.

'Man, guess Tuchel has made a few changes in midfield this time?' Dicker took the information, speechless.

"It's not going to be all replaced again, is it? That's a hallmark of Tuchel's manager, and he wants all his players to have a chance to play. When Rupert saw Dicker's expression, he knew that this time it must be another large-scale adjustment, and replied angrily.

'Not so much, but not a lot, eight players were substituted. Schmelzer, Sokladis and Piszczek, Weigel, Christian Pulisic, Gotze, Schurrle and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang were substituted for Merino, Bartra, Paslak, Shahin, Castro, Dembele, Moore and Ponho, with Tuchel making an eight-man change. Dicker looked worried.

"I knew it was going to happen again, the German Super Cup in a week, but Dortmund still haven't established a squad, I really can't figure it out. Even if it's scouting players, it's too long. Gotze and Schurrle are the new players who have returned to the team, but what about the players in other positions, why it is still uncertain. Rupert was unhappy, "We can't let the players have no direction, and Dortmund, who don't even have a confirmed main lineup, can't play the strongest fighting power." ”

"I agree with you, Boris. We've all been players and know what it means to have a consistent squad for a team all the time. "I know there are a lot of talented youngsters in the squad who are eager to play, but the team has to strike a balance between developing young people and getting good results, otherwise it could be another championshipless season." ”

'Borussia Dortmund are a team that is weak in attack and defense, and the only way for us to win is to score more goals than our opponents, I don't want to draw that conclusion, but that's the situation at the moment. Rupert smiled bitterly, "The team must have ups and downs in form after a season, and it is too difficult to rely on a single attack to win the league championship." Offense can only lead to victory, and defense can win championships. ”

"But there's good news for Boris, Pong is out. He is Dortmund's hottest player in recent times and will be a storm in the second half. Dicker's face smiled again.

"Hopefully Pang won't disappoint me, his new fan, and this is the first game I've announced my support for him." Rupert said with a red face.

"Don't worry, man, Pang won't let you down. He's a player who wants to win, and that's why I like him. Dicker said confidently.

For the first time, the midfielders of the two commentators pointed the finger at coach Tuchel, much to the surprise of Dortmund fans in front of the TV, who left messages online about the incident.

'Dicker and Rupert really can't sit idle for a moment, first it was Pong, then GΓΆtze, and now it's Tuchel coach, it's two living treasures.' A fan left a message.

'I agree with the two commentators that the team's defence is really bad at the moment, whether it's against opponents in the West Division, against opponents in the Bundesliga, against opponents in the Bundesliga, and against opponents like Manchester United, we keep conceding goals and that's not what a team aiming for a title should be. Second floor

'Thomas Tuchel is a very attacking coach in his own right, maybe he's really not good at defending. Last season we conceded twice as many goals as Bayern, which is why we scored first and only finished second. "Third floor

"The Bundesliga has historically not put much emphasis on defence, with the exception of Bayern Munich, which team will invest heavily in players at the back? Borussia Dortmund will have to work on defence if they are to make a difference this season. "Fourth floor

'It's hard to change that at the moment, Watzke has announced the end of the season, but I think we should continue to bring in players at the back, especially in the centre-back position, and the combination of Sokladis and Baltra is not optimal. Fifth floor

'I think maybe it's a little too early to talk about the backline, but I think Borussia Dortmund's Super Cup with Bayern Munich is definitely a litmus test. Sixth floor

"Pang is going to play and expect Dortmund to score in the second half. Now Pong is the biggest bright spot in Dortmund's attack. "Seventh floor

From the moment the fat man stepped onto the court, the fat man knew it was going to be a tough game. Although Athletic Bilbao is not as strong as Manchester United and Manchester City, it is definitely a very difficult team at the San MamΓ©s Stadium. Spurred on by the shouts of the home fans, the players of Athletic Bilbao are in a state of high spirits, and they want to win the game more than ever. 、

Five minutes after the fat man came on the pitch, the Athletic Bilbao defenders had already made physical contact with the fat man several times, and they expressed their toughness in this way. And every time there is physical contact, the home fans at the San MamΓ©s stadium shout loudly to cheer on the players. The fat man finally knew why Messi and Ronaldo did not play well as soon as they arrived at the San Mames stadium, they were really afraid of injury.

The fat man understands why Aubameyang's performance in the first half was mediocre, he was afraid of injury, and with the Gabonese man recently having a second child, Aubameyang's energy is no longer entirely on football.

'Hell is home to its name! The fat man sighed.

Although the fat man is not afraid of confrontation, he also does not want to be injured, so he has to run more to avoid being caught by his opponent. 'It's been a while since I've been learning how to run with Inzaghi, and it's time to experiment with the results. The fat man thought silently.

The fat man began to look for open positions and kept an eye on the positions of his teammates and defenders for opportunities. The fat man's position on the field is also becoming more and more erratic, sometimes to the left, and then to the right, even Laporte, the central defender of Athletic Bilbao who has been keeping an eye on the fat man, also feels the pressure, he feels that the position of the big man in Dortmund is too erratic, as long as he is not careful, the big man will disappear in front of his eyes.

"What is Pang doing? I felt like he was running around all the time, as if he wasn't threatening, but every time he showed up, it happened to be an area where the opponent's defense was weak, and it was a strange feeling! Rupert wondered.

Rupert played as a defender when he was a player, so naturally he didn't react, but Dicker is different, he was born as a striker and knows the characteristics of a striker well.

'Pang was a bit like Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang today, his movement was a bit erratic, very good. Dicker's eyes were bright, "In the past, when Pang ran on the court, he was mainly vertical, although this can make Pang have a strong impact, but it exposes Pang's breakthrough to the noses of the opponent's defenders. Today Pang is a little different, he has increased lateral running, which makes it much more difficult for opponents to defend, because opponents must constantly switch positions with teammates if they want to mark Pang. ”

"You say Pang learned how to move from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, how is that possible? I don't think Aubameyang is going to teach Pang this technique. Rupert wondered.

"I can't believe it either, but the facts are in front of you, and you have to believe it. Could it be that Pang learned the technique from Ramos? Dicker didn't understand why.

"It can't be Ramos, I've watched Ramos a lot of games, and his pitch is not as flexible as it is now," Rupert retorted.

"Who did you learn from that, there are only a few strikers in the team at the moment, and the flexibility of Poong's current movement is really incomparable to others except for Reus and Aubameyang." Dicker was even more confused.

"However, I don't think Pang will learn this technique too well, Aubameyang can use this technique perfectly, because Aubameyang has a very perverted speed and explosiveness, and a big man like Pang must be less explosive and fast." Rupert analyzed.

"Don't think too much about it, Pang can learn to run shows that he is a very smart player. Under Coach Tuchel's tactical system, players who are good at running tend to get more scoring opportunities and are the biggest beneficiaries of the quick passing tactic. "Pom is finally starting to think about how to fit into Coach Tuchel's tactics, which is very good. ”

The fat man has been waiting for his chance, waiting for his teammates to pass the ball threateningly. However, such an opportunity never came, and Kagawa and Dembele were also heavily defended by Athletic Bilbao, who were well prepared for the match, apparently looking to get their first warm-up win from Borussia Dortmund.

However, there were also loopholes in the tight defense, and the game went on for 55 minutes, and the fat man finally waited for this opportunity. When Kagawa dribbled the ball in the midfield, he was strictly defended by the opponent's defender Eraso, but Dembele suddenly rushed over and snatched the ball directly, while Kagawa blocked San Jose, who was defending Dembele, in front of him, Dembele got rid of the defense and was a straight stopper, he has been observing the fat man for a long time, and he has an understanding of the fat man's running line. Sure enough, after Dembele passed the ball, a tall figure rushed out directly behind Boveda, another central defender of Athletic Bilbao, got the ball along the way, and scored in the far corner in the face of Athletic Bilbao goalkeeper Ilesos.

"Ball...... Scored, Pang countered offside and successfully equalized for Dortmund. Dicker, as surprised as he was, couldn't raise his voice because he couldn't believe that the fat man could score such an easy goal now, "Unbelievable goal, that's not how Pong scored goals...... But it's still very exciting......"

"Man, don't use that expression, I don't know if you're happy or sad." Rupert quipped, "Since Pang can run out of such an open position, it is not surprising that he can score such an anti-offside goal." ”

"Boris, this goal is different from the previous goals of Pong." Dicker said seriously, "Pang's previous goals relied more on his own personal ability, unlike this goal, Pang didn't show any personal ability at all, Pang just ran to the right position, and then easily completed the goal, this is Aubameyang's way of scoring......"

"Norbert, I don't agree with what you say." Rupert retorted, "Pong's goal is actually more difficult, after all, a big man like Pang can run out of space is much more difficult than other players. This involves awareness, Pon's ability to read the game. ”

"I'm just a little uncomfortable with this kind of goal from Pang, I'm thinking about Pang's kind of breakthrough now, that kind of head-on crushing, that kind of intense physical confrontation, this kind of goal is a bit ...... It's a bit too simple. Dicker explained embarrassedly.

On the field, after the fat man scored, he suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment. It turns out that this is how Inzaghi scored goals, it was really comfortable, so cool. The fat man was very happy, "Brother doesn't need to activate the heat flow, he doesn't need physical confrontation, he just needs to run to the right place at the right time, this is too easy?" Consciousness, it's something heavier than the body! ’

Actually, the fat man really guessed right. If a player wants to become a top player or a star, technique is only one aspect, the body is also one aspect, and another aspect is very important, and that is awareness. Good awareness, strong reading skills, sometimes more important than technique and body. Inzaghi is such a player with great awareness, he doesn't have a strong body, he rarely breaks through and dribbles, but he has a strong sense of smell, a keen awareness, which makes him like a killer who can give his opponent a lethal blow at any time.

'Brother almost took a detour, relying on body and technology can only be a while, relying on consciousness can be a lifetime. Brother's intelligence is not low, it's time to make good use of it. The fat man thought silently.
