Chapter 82: The Two Sides Are Deadlocked

If Vieira was just a good defensive player, Ling Feng would not have taken him to Hamburg and then prepared to take him to Fiorentina, because in addition to his excellent defense, he also has a wide vision - this is the quality of a top midfielder.

Just imagine, Barty, Jr., Vieira, Effenberg, Rui. Costa, Shepchenko, Carlos, Thuram, which is not a player who can stand alone, those very talented young players in China often play with them, and the growth of skills will be unparalleled.

To be honest, Ling Feng would not count on Hao Haidong and his group at all, because they are relatively old and have limited space for development, at most they can reach the level of second-rate and upward in Europe, and there is still a considerable distance compared to the real first-class players.

Another point, very important, most of these players' skills have been set, in the best time they did not get the best training, missed the most golden period of development in life, and in that period, is an important period for a player to decide the direction of future development according to their own strengths - just like in fantasy novels, this hurdle has not passed, can only fall in the inferior acquired realm, if it is cultivated well, it is a congenital master.

Sending these Chinese players overseas, on the one hand, is to lay a good foundation for the Chinese team in recent years, and on the other hand, Ling Feng is also to expand his influence, after all, many of these players are the club's hopeful stars, their own quality is passable, and their influence is still in the domestic football world.

Of course, some of these players are younger and their skills have not yet been fully formed, and they can also be focused on training.

With the home team trailing the opponent by one goal, Stuttgart's players naturally didn't feel good, especially Bobic, who really felt a little angry about the championship.

Hao Haidong received treatment for a while and returned to the field, but he was greeted by earth-shattering boos—even more than the boos for Ling Feng, which greatly satisfied Hao Haidong's vanity.

Well, this kind of comparison is really not flattering......

After conceding the goal, the Stuttgart team began to attack fiercely, sweeping away the negative form of the first 20 minutes, and the trident in the front field gradually played a role.

Elber is more of a European striker, and the Brazilian's delicate footwork is rarely seen in him, and even when he breaks through, Elber often uses the rough mode of his body to stop and accelerate.

The Brazilian national team will not want such a striker, they need a striker who is full of spirit and can tear apart the opponent's defense through personal skills at critical moments, so to speak, everyone in the Brazilian national team is a sharp knife, a sharp knife that can actively pierce the opponent's defense.

Elber, on the other hand, is at best a bit of a blade, with strong awareness and grasp in front of goal, but he needs a handle behind him to assist - to put it mildly, if Elber is alone with the ball in front of more than two defenders on the opposing side, he is a waste.

It's a bit mean, after all, in Brazil, only the likes of Ronaldo and Romario can do it - but it's already a luxury for a team to have two top strikers.

", is he an elephant?" When Elber's breakthrough was once again defused by Vieira with his body, the Brazilian cursed in a low voice.

Of course, he is not a lone wolf, Romario, and he can only curse in a low voice at this time - but in other words, if Vieira is the king of Manchester United, Cantonna, he will definitely kick off when he hears Elber's comments about him.

It's just that it seems that Vieira's temper in the future is only a little better than Cantonna......

Of course, the defense of Vieira and Ling Feng can't block all the attacks of the Stuttgart team after all, and there is really no good way for Bobic.

At just 1.88 meters tall, Bobic is even more of a threat in the box than the 1.96 meter Baron because of his strong body and outstanding consciousness – Baron is more of a stunted kindergarten kid by comparison.

Ling Feng has to keep an eye on Balakov to block his pass, Vieira has to stick to Elber, who keeps running around, and the rest of Bobic can only be marked by Hamburg's central defenders.

It's just that Hinkoz is really not Bobic's opponent, and under his powerful impact, Hinkoz is like grass in the cold wind, swaying incessantly......

Even in the face of the 1.96-meter-tall Baron during training, Hinkoz will not be so helpless, which shows that Bobic's impact is far above Baron.

When Bobic pressed Henkoz to top the ball slightly over the crossbar, Ling Feng realized that his arrangement was wrong.

Vieira should be allowed to mark Bobic, although he has less time to touch the ball, but every time he touches the ball, there is a threat, looking at the whole Hamburg team, except for himself, only Vieira will not be weaker than Bobic in one-on-one confrontations - as for Elber, it is a big deal to let Hollebach and Kemiske watch Elber together.

It's just that Ling Feng quickly realized his mistake again - football, not just staring at some individuals......

Just like the goal scored by Hao Haidong just now, Stuttgart is not only a trident in the frontcourt.

In the 39th minute of the first half, Stuttgart won a corner, Balakov took the penalty, while Ling Feng entangled Elber, and Vieira kept an eye on Bobic.

But just when the Hamburg players thought that the two Stuttgart leading scorers were being guarded, a change occurred.

Balakov's corner was not given to either of the two, but was flicked directly to the outside of the box, and Hollerbach and Stuttgart centre-back Frath next to him both headed over the spot, just when Stuttgart's midfielder, 25-year-old midfielder, headed the ball unguarded, and the ball bounced off the top right corner of the net with a standard deflection into the top right corner.

1:1 Draw! The Demler Stadium was filled with the cheers of the home fans, and no matter who scored the goal, the score was tied anyway - it didn't matter if the Hamburgers put their own goal - the goal was the most important thing!

Judging from the slow motion, this goal is indeed a leak from the Hamburg team.

Hollerbach and Habtchev defended that area in front and behind respectively, but no one expected that Hollerbach rose to the top because of mutual interference in the competition with Frater, and Habtchev behind him did not have time to prepare to fill the position, and was inserted by Fournier from behind to rush to the top.

There's an element of luck and, of course, the defenders themselves, both.

Any tiny factor on the football pitch has the potential to change the situation on the field, even a gust of wind can blow the ball into the door - when Hamburg played Borussia Mönchengladbach, wasn't Ling Feng's hilarious goal blown into by the wind?

But opportunities like this are hard to come by, and that's the beauty of football.

The rest of the first half passed quickly, and both teams had some chances, but neither team could break through the opponent's goal, but fortunately, the first half of the two teams was okay on the field, and the main thing is that they did not consume too much energy, and the second half will be a good game.

Sure enough, at the beginning of the second half, the two teams launched a fierce attack in unison, which made the fans' eyes shine!

First of all, Ling Feng, on the right side of the big penalty area, three consecutive bicycles shook Stuttgart's left-back Grim, and cut into the inside of the penalty area at high speed!

Ling Feng, who had been silent for half the court, finally broke out for the first time, attracting a warm cheer from the few Hamburg fans in the stands, while at the same time, the Stuttgart defenders were also ready.

Flatt and Fernier stuck the route that Ling Feng cut into, there was no way, Ling Feng could only move the ball sideways, dodging Flat's robbery, but he couldn't break into the penalty area.

At this time, Ling Feng keenly discovered that Hao Haidong was silently outflanking in from a distance, and decisively rubbed the ball under the ball with his foot, and the ball drew a perfect arc through the gap between Frater and Fournier, and accurately landed at the back point.

Hao Haidong flew to arrive, a beautiful head attack to push the ball to Stuttgart's door, just when everyone thought the ball was going in, Stuttgart's goalkeeper Warfart made a world-class save and touched the ball with his fingertips - only Hao Haidong's angle of the top of the ball was too much, almost close to the goalpost, and Warfart made such a light block, it was not far away, but the ball just smashed on the post and bounced out, and Berthold followed up with a big foot to handle the ball out of the sideline - Hamburg missed a great chance to extend their lead.

Ten minutes later, Stuttgart's revenge came.

After Balakov and Soldo successfully shook off Ling Feng's pressing in the midfield, the Bulgarian veteran hit a beautiful high-altitude ball behind Hollebach, Elber quickly inserted, and when the ball was not yet stopped, he took his right foot and hit the ball into the penalty area, and Bobic in the middle inserted it at high speed from behind, and pressed Henkoz to push the ball into the door of the Hamburg team with a beautiful header.

However, just as the Stuttgart players were about to celebrate, the referee signalled that the goal was nullified – and Bobic had a clear pressing action during the aerial duel and Hamburg escaped.

………………

"The two teams are really playing against each other, although the score is still 1:1, but from the above, this is a rare battle in the Bundesliga." The commentator of German TV commented: "It just seems that the physical strength of the Hamburg team has not fully recovered, and the attack power of the Hamburg team is much weaker than the game against Bayern in the first half of the season." ”

One thing that the commentator didn't finish was that the reason for the weakening of the Hamburg team's attack power was not only due to physical strength, but also that Ling Feng was not fully exerted.

It's not that Ling Feng doesn't want to play, it's not that this kind of game can't arouse Ling Feng's fighting spirit, it's just that he has to participate in defense on the one hand, and attack on the other, and his veteran defense Barakov is not defending him in the same way?

The experience of the Bulgarian veteran is incomparably rich, Barakov's defense reminded Ling Feng of Leverkusen's Schuster, and he also used his experience to judge Ling Feng's intentions when he was physically exhausted, and at the same time used appropriate fouls to disrupt the rapid counterattack of the Hamburg team, not giving Ling Feng a chance to quickly start a breakthrough.

"This old guy is really hard!" After Ling Feng's ball was once again destroyed by Balakov and Sordo, Ling Feng pulled the somewhat wrinkled jersey that was pulled by Balakov and complained with a frown.

However, Barakov's current state is not much better, he is already thirty years old, he does not have excellent physical strength like Ling Feng, nor can he follow Ling Feng's boundless full run, all he can do is to create some trouble for Ling Feng in the midfield, so as to buy more time for his own midfield, so as to prevent his breakthrough.

Everyone knows that if Ling Feng is pinned, then the Hamburg team will lose more than 70% of their offensive ability - as for the goal of the Hamburg team in the first half, it should be counted within the other 30 percent......

Opportunity, what Ling Feng needs is a chance, a chance to get the ball comfortably and start quickly.

As long as he activates, Ling Feng can involve nearly half of the opponent's defense, and then pass the ball out at the most opportune time or choose to break through by himself.

But isn't Stuttgart waiting for such an opportunity? Both Bobic and Elber were hovering in front of the Hamburg penalty area, trying to capitalise on one of the holes and turn it into a dangerous shot to score.

Ling Feng once again received a low flat ball from Vieira in the midfield, and gently shrank back with the arch of his foot, pulling the ball back, but Balakov immediately stuck to it, and his whole body leaned behind Ling Feng, so that Ling Feng had no room to turn around at all, and had no choice but to fall to the ground.

Kick! The referee verbally warned Balakov and gave Hamburg an indirect free-kick near the centre circle.

Balakov shook his head stupidly, he was under a lot of pressure now, and he didn't know how many times he could defend this Chinese teenager, just when he just turned his head back, he suddenly saw the ball passing by his side, and couldn't help but be surprised, and quickly sent a free kick!
