Next, Hoffenheim began to change tactics, Eduardo, Salihovic, and Paldjic no longer passed all offensive opportunities to Lu Wenbin, and Lu Wenbin completed the final blow.

If they get their chance, they'll be able to shoot on their own!

In the 35th minute, Salihovic made a feint to pass to Lu Wenbin, but after dunking the ball and preparing to break through from the opposite direction, Bernisch, who lost his center of gravity, had no choice but to pull Salihovic down with a tactical foul.

Bernisch received a yellow card and also awarded Hoffenheim a free-kick.

However, Lu Wenbin's free-kick went wide of the goal and did not score.

In the 38th minute, Eduardo and Salihovic completed a delicate one-two combination outside the big penalty zone, and Eduardo hit the goal with his feet in the forbidden zone.

The ball had already escaped goalkeeper Wiese's save, but it hit the post and bounced back into the field to be cleared out of the penalty area by full-back Naldo.

Although this goal did not score, it also made the whole Werder Bremen team nervous.

Obviously, Hoffenheim has discovered Bremen's tactics of focusing on Lu Wenbin and adjusted the focus of the attack.

Suddenly, Werder Bremen's backline began to become shaky.

However, the good news is that Bremen are ahead on aggregate and they have the upper hand.

As a result, the three midfielders Mesut Ozil, Cunha and Frings can often drop back to participate in the defense and stop Hoffenheim's attack.

From the change of tactics to the 44th minute, Lu Wenbin did not get a chance to shoot with his feet except for a goalless free kick and a few ordinary passes and receptions outside the forbidden area.

Therefore, Bremen gradually became a little careless and relaxed its defense of Lu Wenbin.

As a result, in the 45th minute, Lu Wenbin, who was originally on the side, suddenly changed direction and threw off Bowman and went straight into the forbidden area, Paldjic passed the ball over at the right time, and Lu Wenbin made a posture of shooting directly without stopping the ball during the run, which caused a burst of nervousness among everyone in Bremen.

Not only did Pledl, who was closely following Lu Wenbin, have been pulling Lu Wenbin, but another central defender, Mertesacker and full-back Naldo, also left other Hoffenheim players to rush to Lu Wenbin, and goalkeeper Wiese also nervously pounced on Lu Wenbin's side of the goal.

Everyone thought that Lu Wenbin would shoot as long as he touched the ball, so he tried his best to save and block the gun's eye.

However, Lu Wenbin's feet did not shoot after he fell, but stabilized his body and shook his ankle and passed the ball to the other side of the forbidden area.

Eduardo, who cooperated tacitly, appeared on the way to the ball, and pushed the ball into the goal without stopping.

The rebounding Wiese whip was out of reach and could only watch the ball go into the net.

In the last minute before the end of the first half, Hoffenheim scored a goal from Lu Wenbin and assisted Eduardo to draw the score at 1-1 and 3-3 on aggregate, while Hoffenheim had the advantage of away goals, and the game was again on Hoffenheim's side.

Hoffenheim celebrated for a while before the game resumed.

However, Werder Bremen could not complete a full attack before the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half.

At half-time, Ralph made a more detailed tactical set-up.

Because the situation was in Hoffenheim's favor, Hoffenheim still had to try their best to stabilize the back line in the second half and try not to let the opponent score.

At the same time, it is necessary to be flexible and mobile in attack.

Just like in the last period of the first half, Lu Wenbin didn't have a chance to break through and shoot by Eduardo and others.

Lu Wenbin passed to Lu Wenbin when he had the opportunity, but when Lu Wenbin felt that the chances of scoring a goal were not high, he could attract the attention of the opponent and pass the ball back to other players to complete the shooting.

On the other side, Shaaf could only continue to let the players stare at Lu Wenbin.

Even if he knew that the opponent knew his tactics and made targeted arrangements, he couldn't change it, because Lu Wenbin's threat was too great.

Schaaf could only ask his players to step up their running, and the midfielders to drop back to participate in the defence. And, because the situation is not in Bremen's favor, the midfielders are also responsible for attacking.

This requires a lot of running ability, but Schaaf has no choice but to arrange it like this, and whether the players can complete it or not is not something he can control.

After a fifteen-minute break, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Werder Bremen, who were at a disadvantage, could only continue to attack, but the backfield also gave Hoffenheim more chances.

In addition, there are two or three people to keep an eye on Lu Wenbin, and Eduardo and others will have more opportunities.

In the first 20 minutes of the second half, Eduardo, Salihovic and Baker had three consecutive chances to shoot from their feet, one of which hit the woodwork and almost scored.

As a result, everyone unconsciously relaxed their vigilance against Lu Wenbin and focused on Eduardo and others.

But in fact, Hoffenheim's tactics were flexible.

Seeing that Lu Wenbin's defensive pressure was reduced and there was a chance to receive the ball, Eduardo and others would pass the ball to Lu Wenbin.

In the 69th minute, Lu Wenbin took Pledel and Baumanka behind him in the big ban zone and received a pass from Salihovic.

Then Lu Wenbin made a turn to hit the goal, not only continued to attract the attention of Bowman and the two, but even the goalkeeper Wiese was nervously attracted by Lu Wenbin and moved to the near end of the goal.

As a result, Lu Wenbin knocked the ball with a heel after completing the half-turn and crossed the ball to the middle of the forbidden area.

Center forward Paldjic swept in before Mertesacker cleared the ball and swept Lu Wenbin's clever backheel pass into the back of the net.

Lu Wenbin scored a brace with an assist, and Hoffenheim also led Werder Bremen with a score of 2-1 and an aggregate score of 4-3.

Bremen blocked Lu Wenbin's shot, but couldn't prevent him from attracting the attention of his opponent and assisting his teammates.

After falling behind in aggregate, Bremen had to intensify their attack.

Now they only need to score a single goal to not only tie the aggregate score, but also erase Hoffenheim's away goal advantage and drag the game into extra-time and even a penalty shoot-out.

Hoffenheim, on the other hand, also felt unsafe about the 2-1 scoreline, and continued to pursue goals when they had the chance.

Lu Wenbin, who scored two assists, is naturally the target of Bremen's key defense, allowing Eduardo and others to get a lot of offensive opportunities.

However, it is true that their shooting accuracy is far behind.

In the next 10 minutes, Salihovic and Puldjic each had a shot on goal, but neither could hit the woodwork.

The biggest threat to Hoffenheim is Lu Wenbin.

Therefore, in the 82nd minute, when Lu Wenbin made a shot after receiving a pass from Salihovic, it once again caused tension in the entire back line of Werder Bremen, and goalkeeper Wiese was attracted to the near end by Lu Wenbin.

As a result, Lu Wenbin passed the ball out of the same inverted three corners, and Gustavo, who was suddenly inserted, shot a long-range shot from a heavy cannon at the top of the arc of the forbidden area, blasting the ball into the goal.

Lu Wenbin did not score or break the record under Werder Bremen's three-man defense tactics, but completed a hat trick of assists, helping the team lead Werder Bremen 3-1 and 5-3 on aggregate, basically sealing the victory.

In the next few minutes, Werder Bremen launched a Jedi counter-attack and scored a goal in the 91st minute of stoppage time, but to no avail.

In the end, Hoffenheim defeated Werder Bremen 3-2 at home and 5-4 on aggregate over two legs to advance to the last four of this season's UEFA Cup.

Lu Wenbin's failure to score and break the record disappointed many people, but the performance of the hat trick of assists still made people marvel at his performance.

In addition to scoring goals, Lu Wenbin can also use his attraction to create opportunities for other teammates and assist them to score.

It's a lot harder to defend than a simple goal machine.

Even if other opponents learn from Werder Bremen to completely stop Lu Wenbin's goal with three markers, it is estimated that it will be difficult for the team to win.

Because Hoffenheim has other people, Lu Wenbin can also assist.

Lu Wenbin has completed the nuclear weapons of the court that broke the balance, leaving the opponent with no way to start.
