Chapter 182: Proud
"High-altitude bombing......" Dick shook his head slightly, just now this time the defense of Stam and Thuram did not make any mistakes, but Bayern scored a header through Salihamidzic, which is actually the difference in the characteristics of the league - the Bundesliga has a lot more air attacks, so they will have a variety of experiences and means in the air attack, even if it is Bayern with excellent technology, and Atletico Madrid is in the environment of La Liga, even if Dick has introduced a lot of tall players, focusing on center forward tacticsMost of their offense is still based on the ground, and they will not encounter too many high-altitude ball attacks in defense, so they will naturally suffer some losses in this regard.
No team is perfect, and football, to put it bluntly, is a game in which you try to play to your strengths and avoid the strengths of the opponent.
"Intensify the offense and play more on the ground...... Wear them out with passes. ”
As the Bayern players ran towards their own half, Dick called out to Belleron and whispered a few words to him, who nodded and ran onto the pitch.
After the restart, Atletico launched a counter-attack - they started to have more possession at their feet and then attack through the ground passes, Bayern also increased the tempo of pressing up front, and when it was their turn to attack, they also tended to move quickly through midfield and then attack as quickly as possible.
The tempo of the game began to get quicker, Atletico had the ball at their feet, but they were not too slow, often passing through the midfield with three passes and two downs, and then suppressing Bayern to attack, and they were also unusually active in terms of return.
This kind of game will naturally make people watch very cool, fast-paced offense and defense, simple and clear passing, and the occasional gorgeous cooperation between stars...... The shouts in the stands began to get louder, and the fans on both sides began to cheer for their teams with high spirits!
Under such an attack, both sides will make some mistakes, and now it is up to us to see whose mistakes will be caught by the other party first!
In such a back-and-forth attack, Bayern's players also began to gradually relax their vigilance against Atletico's rapid counterattack, and the range of assists from their two full-backs began to become larger, which certainly brought more pressure to Atletico's defense, but also put their backline in danger at any time!
When the clock reached seventy-one minutes, Atletico Madrid once again penetrated Bayern's door with a beautiful quick counterattack!
Belleron's accurate long pass from the midfield fell in front of Vicente, who cut forward diagonally to break through the opponent's defense and receive the ball, and then he began to drive straight into the ball with the ball, and when he saw Kahn halfway through the attack at the edge of the penalty area, Vicente shot decisively!
The ball flew quickly to the ground and into the goal behind Karn! Three to one, Atletico extended their lead again!
"Good!"
Dick clenched his right fist and stood up, Vicente ran around the field with his arms outstretched, he had a lot of fun on the counter-attack, Belleron's pass fell in front of him accurately, he just had to accelerate, get rid of, catch up with the ball, and then take advantage of the momentum to push the shot, and the top goalkeeper Kahn could only fall to the ground in front of him!
Heathfield shook his head, it turned out that Dick actually played such an idea, taking the initiative to press the attack was a means to induce Bayern's attack to press out, it was a little incredible to think about it, but in the case of Bayern pulling back a point and wanting to quickly equalize and strengthen the attack, his method was so successful! Has this young head coach's grasp of people's hearts reached such a point?
Actually, Dick didn't think about it so much, he almost deduced it according to instinct - Bayern fell behind by two goals in the first half, and now they finally pulled back a point, thinking about it must be to continue to strengthen the attack, the only worry is that Atletico Madrid will shrink and counterattack - if Atletico Madrid puts on a posture of attacking, they will naturally have no worries about this, and begin to pay more energy on the attack, and the gap in the backfield will naturally increase, and Atletico Madrid's counterattack is now very proficient, as long as the gap in Bayern's backfield increases, Then they will definitely be able to get a chance to fight back!
Now, his judgment has come true, and Atletico are close to winning the first UEFA Super Cup in the club's history!
Heathfield continued to fight for the last chance with substitutions, Nick Kovac came on to replace the mediocre Sforza, the teenager Santa Cruz came on to replace Elber, who was also not very good, Bayern began to attack with all his might, and Dick began to strengthen the defense through substitutions, Marchena replaced Jorgensen, he appeared in the midfield position to help Makelle and Baraja defend, Torres came on to replace Jadel, his speed and technique will play a greater role in counter-attacking.
In such a delay-like tactic, the clock began to pass minute by minute, Bayern's attack was difficult to find opportunities under Atletico's increasingly tight defense, and Yankel quickly fell silent after the opening activity - because Stam began to defend him under Dick's instructions, and under Stam's close defense, Yankel wanted to fight for a header It became a very difficult thing - he was only two centimeters taller than Stam, and in such a height confrontation, this advantage became very small.
Atletico relied on excellent defending to hold the lead until the end, and by the time the game went to stoppage time, Dick was already on his feet, smiling and ready for the next award ceremony.
The tenacious spirit of the Germans did not work miracles, after all, miracles are miracles because they are difficult to happen, and if miracles become the norm, it will not be miracles......
Fortunately, the situation of being able to score two goals in stoppage time at the end is still a "miracle" that is difficult to occur in this world.
After Lizarazu's long-range shot from the edge of the box was confiscated by Molina, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game!
Atletico beat Bayern Munich 3-1 in the UEFA Super Cup final to claim their fourth title of the year! In all the competitions they participated in this year, they just didn't win the Copa del Rey, and they won all the other titles!
"Next, it's the turn of the Champions Cup!"
Countless Atletico Madrid fans shouted excitedly at the stadium, Atletico Madrid had won the Cup Winners' Cup before, won the League Cup last season, and now in their honor room, Atletico Madrid has won all the honors except for the Champions Cup!
You must know that in Spain, only Barcelona has a Grand Slam result, but they also have to make a discount, because the UEFA Cup they won is the predecessor of the UEFA Cup - the European Fair Cup, Real Madrid still lacks a European Cup Winners' Cup, and there is no chance to win this title again, if Atletico Madrid can win the Champions Cup, then they can also suppress their rivals in this regard - for Atletico Madrid fans, even if it is only to suppress Real Madrid in this regard, It is also a thing that makes them feel extremely happy!
"It's a good thing that the three of you are missing, otherwise we wouldn't have won this game."
Dick joked when shaking hands with Heathfield, and Heathfield smiled bitterly - Dick's words were true, if the three main players had not been absent, Bayern's tactics would not have been so aggressive, let alone leave such a huge flaw in the backfield - it is still an irreparable flaw.
Even if it is a big club like Bayern, after the lack of three main level players, it will be overstretched in terms of personnel.
But Dick's remark made Heathfield begin to think that this young man was not a mad dog as rumored, at least at this time he was still very personable, and he did not get cheap or anything......
In fact, under the propaganda of the media, everyone has also demonized Dick a little, Dick is indeed a person who will be revenged, but he will not offend anyone for no reason, but his counterattack is often very fierce, if ordinary people are beaten by someone, it is enough to beat them back, and what about Dick? How is it enough to fight back, at least you have to convince people......
And if others didn't take the initiative to provoke him, he wouldn't mess with others for no reason, and he didn't know how to say it on the face, and to be honest, Dick still admired Heathfield a little, the top existence of their group of old coaches, although few of them were able to stay strong like Ferguson, but they were able to achieve some good results, except for Sacchi's failure at Atletico Madrid, Heathfield and Trapattoni faded out of the line, The coaching of some European national teams is still quite good, such as Heathfield once led Switzerland to beat Spain in the first game of the World Cup group stage, giving old rival Bosque a dismount, and Trapattoni almost caused huge problems for Italy in the group stage of the European Championship when he led the Irish national team......
No matter how arrogant Dick is, he always has a bit of respect for the elderly, of course, if any old disrespectful person takes the initiative to trouble him, he will not be polite - anyway, for the European coaching circle, he can be regarded as a complete outsider, and there is no need to save any face for others because of favors.
After chatting with Heathfield, Dick turned to celebrate with his teammates, and with the arrival of one championship after another, Dick received more and more attention - if in the past the camera camera always revolved around him because he often made some amazing words to attract attention, now the camera camera willingly revolves around him because of the ability he has shown and the accolades he has achieved are enough to make him the focus of attention on and off the field!
"Was there a reporter from the media who said yesterday morning that I was not doing business when I went to the casino? If anything, a journalist of such a media, I refuse to be interviewed! ”
When the reporters came around, Dick directly gave everyone a dismissal.
Yesterday, after learning that someone had criticized him for going to the casino, Dick began to have his assistant collect the newspapers that published similar reports—and that was the benefit of having an assistant, and Dick could have let them do the chores, and he could have made that gesture with confidence.
When the reporters were stunned, Dick directly named several newspapers and television stations, and in the gloating eyes of other reporters, the reporters from these newspapers and television stations left Dick's side in a huff, because Dick said that if they did not leave, he would not answer any of his questions......
"You said bad things about me and you want to interview me? There are no doors! Dick thought haughtily.
