Chapter 125: The Battle of Werder Bremen (1)

"Why are you so sure that Bremen will win?" Braven took over. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"First of all, it's based on the common sense that football is a team sport, and 11 Pele or Maradona can't play against an ordinary team with a reasonable structure and tacit understanding, and Prato has not had many stars to the point where they can ignore the principles of football, and the only tactic they can get their hands on" 'Chaotic war', through fierce physical confrontation and verbal demeanor to tease the opponent's psychology, break the opponent's inherent rhythm, pull the opponent into the same chaotic battle as them, and then through the flash of inspiration of some stars or some lucky goals, and finally eliminate the opponent. Throughout the Cup Winners' Cup matches, Prato adopted exactly this tactic, but when they meet the team under the command of coach Rehhagel, they will instantly understand what it means to have a concrete will, a nerves of steel, and Bremen is the epitome of discipline in German football. So if Prato continue with their previous tactics, they will be like crashing headlong into a towering mountain, only to hit their heads and bleed, and ultimately make them lose even faster......"

Brewin smiled awkwardly, and said that your bias is too big, and quickly stopped his words: "In this way, Prato really has to be careful, now let's focus on the playing field." ”

In the middle of Chrissy's casual conversation with Brewin, the game officially began.

In this game, Veron and Zanetti are still on the injury list due to Dunga's suspension. So the team's main lineup has changed slightly, Effenberg has retreated to the back position, and Tomasi forms a double back, the left and right forwards are Ma Minyu and Doni, the forward partners are Prato twin stars Vieri and Inzaghi, except for Son Chenghai to replace the injured Zanetti, the rest is basically unchanged, the central defender is still Iuliano and Materazzi, and the left back is Leonardo. The goalkeeper is the ever-changing Toldo.

As if to prove Klich's overall football winning arguments, Werder Bremen took the initiative from the start, keeping the ball firmly at their feet through a flurry of brilliant passes. For the first ten minutes, the Prato players didn't even touch a single ball. Prato also seemed to play very "elegantly" today, and the defensive movements of the midfielders were unusually clean, not at all as hot as in the last game against Arsenal.

Christ watched and commented: "Prato did it wisely, it seems that they had prepared a lot before the game. It's like fighting, if both sides are stragglers, then as long as they are better than anyone else, and the body is stronger, but if you are facing a regular army, then no matter how tough the thugs are, they will be defeated in the face of steely discipline. Prato was clearly afraid of that kind of asymmetrical war with Bremen, so he honestly put away their rogue play. ”

Chlich's obviously one-sided commentary made the Prato fans in front of the TV quite depressed, but now the scene is indeed one-sided, making them feel like they are holding a sulk in their hearts but have no way to vent, so they can only silently cheer for Prato, hoping that Prato will show the spirit of hard work in the previous games.

The Prato fans at the Stadio Bisenchio have also finished singing "Blue Hearts" and have started singing "Stand'up" en masse, as if to inspire their team with majestic music.

However, God doesn't seem to be on Prato's side today. In the 21st minute of the first half, 18-year-old Son Seunghae, who made his debut in such an important game, was too nervous and stiffened when receiving a pass from a teammate, so that he stopped the ball to the opposing striker.

The Bremen striker took advantage of the situation to break through Prato's backline, and although Son Seunghae desperately chased back after making a mistake, the opposing striker passed the ball deftly before Son Seunghae and Toldo completed the encirclement. Bremen's top scorer this season in the attacking heart of the frontcourt. Basler slapped his horse and fired a furious shot into the net that sent the net high into the air.

After the goal, Basler roared loudly, and with his fierce appearance, he looked like a hungry beast.

Seeing the goal, Klich was even more proud: "That's what I call the advantage of overall football and discipline. In fact, before Mario joined Bremen, he was not a very disciplined player, since he was a child, he was a child who did not obey discipline and loved to cause trouble, it was common for him to skip class to play football, and he came home late every day, and his family couldn't do anything about him.

Whenever an elder accuses him of this, he always has to stiffen his mouth: "Football is all I have in life, I can't live a day without football...... Kaiserslautern took him into the reserve team at the age of 16, and five years later he moved to Essen, after seven years of fighting, his football talent finally showed itself after joining Hertha Berlin in 1992, and that season he attracted the attention of many big club scouts with 12 goals in 44 games in the Bundesliga, of course, Attention was also drawn to his growing "beastly temper", which caused the club plenty of trouble for his unscrupulous and perverse behavior, for which he was widely regarded as an "untamable beast".

It wasn't until the 1992 Indoor Soccer Championship that Mario met Coach Rehhagel during a "toilet encounter". At that time, Coach Rehhagel stuffed him with a note with his phone number in the bathroom and agreed with him to talk on the phone at 8 p.m. ...... "Beast" rarely obediently obeyed others: call on time, have breakfast, meet in secret, initialize the contract...... In this way, Basler was poached to Werder Bremen with a transfer fee of 2.2 million marks and a monthly salary of 17,000 marks, and became the "pet" of "Otto the Great".

Coach Rehhagel may not be the best coach in Germany, but he is definitely an excellent "animal trainer". The previous Basler was arrogant and wild, clubbing, smoking, drinking, gambling, fighting, and inappropriate remarks were all his specialties, giving people the impression that he was hopeless. However, under Rehhagel's careful tutelage, he once looked like a lost prodigal son, not only his skills have improved by leaps and bounds, but even his bad temper has been curtailed a lot, and he has scored 19 goals this season, ranking first in the scorer list. This is the discipline and teamwork that I have always emphasized, Bremen is not without stars, but all players must play under the premise of team existence, just like Mario scored this goal, shooting the empty goal, it is so easy, this goal is really difficult to score, but this is through countless overall cooperation, players have long been running, perhaps it is because they score too easily so their star is obscured, far less wonderful than those fancy shots.

On the other hand, their opponents, because of the ban of Brazilian captain Dunga, their lack of talent has been completely exposed, just like the king's new clothes, which are just touted by unscrupulous media. ”
