Chapter 58: When Experience Loses Its Effect

As the main defender of the German national team, Friedrich is the top defensive player, and it is indeed a bit of pride to be closely marked by such a player, but the feeling of the game is certainly not very good.

Now Zhen Shaolong is playing very depressed, and Friedrich is too difficult.

Compared with Friedrich, physical, technical, experience, etc., he is at an absolute disadvantage in all aspects, if only based on the level of strength, even if Friedrich plays as a striker, his performance can pull him down ten streets.

The gap is so big!

When St. Pauli rarely attacked, Zhen Shaolong continuously changed left and right to run, but he still couldn't effectively shake off Friedrich, except for being tired and panting, there was no other gain.

After a period of time, Zhen Shaolong simply stopped running.

Most of the time, he stood still, seemingly waiting for an opportunity to fall from the sky, rather than taking the initiative himself.

Then, the opportunity never came.

In the middle of the game, the commentators of Deutsche Telekom II couldn't help but sympathize with Zhen Shaolong, "Being closely defended by the main defender of the German national team is really a cruel experience for a player who is only 18 years old." ”

"It's proud, but it's almost impossible to perform."

"Zhen was the best player in the first half, but so far in the second half, he has missed even touching the ball......"

Zhen Shaolong is facing huge defensive pressure, and the whole of St. Pauli is facing huge offensive pressure.

Hertha Berlin's offensive was very fierce.

St. Pauli can only shrink into the penalty area to defend most of the time, but the defense is still frequent, even if there are no loopholes in the formation, the excellent individual ability of the Hertha Berlin players can also force direct opportunities.

In the 71st minute of the game, Hertha Berlin scored a goal.

The merit was midfielder Gilberto.

Gilberto received a pass from the edge of the box and scored a cold shot past the St. Pauli gate to help Hertha Berlin equalise.

2 to 2.

After Hertha Berlin equalized, the Müller Gate Stadium became a lot quieter, the game has been played so far, the excitement is definitely exciting, St. Pauli's two leads have been tied, but until now, it is difficult to talk about St. Pauli still has a chance.

"I'm probably going to lose!"

"There's no way, the other side is too strong, we're just a Bundesliga team."

"It's too hard to beat Hertha Berlin."

"Even if Zhen performs well, he is just a ...... alone"

“……”

In the discussion of fans, Hertha Berlin continues to maintain offensive suppression, frequently creating opportunities in dangerous positions, even if the optimistic St. Pauli fans do not feel that the team still has a chance, even if the score is only 2-2, but St. Pauli does not even attack, it is simply impossible to score, and defensively, it is difficult to say whether it can hold until 90 minutes.

According to the rules of the German Cup, a tie of 90 minutes will go to extra time, and a draw in extra time will enter a penalty shootout.

"Maybe the only chance for the team is to stay for 120 minutes and then play a penalty shootout!" That's how many fans judge.

The media's perception is more extreme.

The commentator of Deutsche Telekom 2 believes that "St. Pauli basically had no chance, and from the first minute of the second half, it entered the rhythm of Hertha Berlin." St. Pauli could only struggle defensively. ”

In addition, he continued to talk about Friedrich, "Friedrich came out to stabilize the defense, he always followed Zhen, who performed well in the first half, and he couldn't break through Friedrich's defense. ”

"It's a little too hard."

After all, he is only 18 years old and has only just entered the professional league, and Friedrich is already the main player of the German team, the world's top defensive star. However, to be taken seriously by Hertha Berlin and let Friedrich defend as a stand-in, he is proud enough......"

Soon the game entered the final ten minutes.

In a wave of Hertha Berlin's attack, the ball passed to the edge of the penalty area was grabbed by Jean, who handed the ball to his teammates, and then Sulentic and Brückner failed to pass the ball forward in a row, and finally the football was handed over to goalkeeper Honarev before he played a steady counterattack.

There is nothing surprising about this offensive.

Passing to the side in the middle, passing to the side and then crossing the middle, the normal routine of play, it is really difficult to break through the Hertha Berlin defense, Sulentic took the ball in front of the penalty area and was surrounded, he could only force a breakthrough, and was put to the ground by the opposing player.

The referee blew for a foul on Hertha Berlin.

St. Pauli wins a set-piece.

Sulentik fell to the ground 25 metres from the goal, which is still quite good, but unfortunately St. Pauli does not have a good set-piece, even if it is such a good goal, the probability of scoring is not as good as a corner.

Sulentik makes a free throw.

Zhen Shaolong, Luz and Bol stepped forward to fight for the point.

Zhen Shaolong's confrontation ability is not strong, he stands on the edge against the human wall, Luz is the main opponent, and he is likely to fight for the point, so he will be carefully marked by the opponent, and Zhen Shaolong's defensive intensity is not low, because it is Friedrich who is standing next to him.

Sulentik made a free throw.

It was indeed a combination ball, he kicked the ball horizontally to the left, and the ball rolled quickly for more than 20 meters.

Albrecht is a kick to follow!

It's not a shot!

Albrecht's action deceived everyone, he swung his foot and passed the ball to the left side of the wall, waiting there Borer chested the ball and turned to volley!

"Good shot!"

"Look at this match! Shot-"

"Bor—"

At the same time, Zhen Shaolong also activated, and he rushed sideways to the right.

Friedrich didn't react at all.

All eyes were on Bol, and even if he made a move, he rushed to the goal, sideways to the right...... What does it do?

Friedrich hesitated.

He immediately regretted it!

Bol's volley was powerful but not angled, and goalkeeper Drobney punched the ball out before the ball bounced off Simunic and onto the right.

Right?

Friedrich looked up and saw that the opponent's young No. 13 was almost waiting in place, facing the rolling ball, and easily completed a push.

The ball rolls into the goal without any suspense.

Friedrich froze in place, as the captain of Hertha Berlin and the main force of the German national team, he rarely encountered anything that surprised him in the game, but now his face was full of confusion and shock, thinking about the other party's strange running route, and he didn't know how to express his feelings.

"How could he run like that?"

"Unconscionable ......"

"It was random for the ball to roll to the right, but he rushed there the first time......"

At the same time, the surrounding stands erupted in loud cheers, and the roof of the stadium shook with the shouts of the fans.

"3 to 2!"

"It's Zhen! He scored the third goal! ”

"It's so beautiful! It's perfect! Three goals against Hertha Berlin! I don't even know how to describe ......."

"I have a hunch that we've won!"

"Then you still have to say it!"

The excitement of the fans represents the mood of many people, and this is the case with head coach Bergman, when he sees the football flying into the goal, he can't help but be excited, leaving the manager's style far aside, like an ordinary fan, waving his hands forward, hugging the assistant coach hard, and can't help but shout, "See? Zhen has scored again! We're ahead again! ”

"Of course, he's a genius!"

'I knew for a long time that he always finds opportunities and takes them. He has a genius sense of smell! He's made to score goals! ”

The other St. Pauli players also celebrated excitedly.

The Chinese reporters in the media table were also quite satisfied with the interviews, and they saw what they hoped to see.

Zhen Shaolong, score three goals!

Hertha Berlin is not a weak team without a reputation, even in China, there are many fans who know that in the face of such a strong team, Zhen Shaolong scored three goals in the game, judging by such a performance, Xinlang Sports website reported, not only did not have any exaggeration, but was a little conservative.

Based on the current performance, the report is sure to cause a sensation!

————

Friedrich finally came back to his senses, he just kept thinking about Zhen Shaolong's position, and found a very pessimistic fact: his so-called rich experience is completely useless when defending such a player.

Because the other party doesn't run according to the 'routine' at all.

Theoretically, when fighting for the ball, everyone should run forward, but the opponent switched to the opposite and couldn't keep up with it at the first time.

What's the solution?

Finally, Friedrich let out a long sigh, "Maybe this is genius!" It's hard to understand, it's unpredictable, but it's just right to be in the right place! ”

"Now he's just a young player, but he's going to be famous very quickly......"

He makes a judgment.

If he were to change to Walschlager, there would have been teammates who would have blamed him for not marking well, but Friedrich would not, because the whole team recognized his ability, and the opponent was able to score the ball under Friedrich's defense, which can only be said to be too good.

Hertha Berlin also reaped the bitter fruits.

3 to 2.

With little time left, St. Pauli had a brief celebration and the game quickly restarted at the urging of the referee, with St. Pauli more fighting spirit than just now and a tighter defense.

Even if Hertha Berlin has a quality advantage, it is very difficult to score in a short period of time.

In the end, Hertha Berlin failed to score again.

St. Pauli beat Hertha Berlin 3-2 at home to reach the quarter-finals of the German Cup.
