Chapter 300: The King of Asia (5) [Thank you for the reward of the little scholar]
It is now the second half of the Asian Cup final, they are one goal behind, and the Chinese team is still pressing, at this time, if they do not work hard, Iraq will have no chance to turn defeat into victory.
Didn't you just score a goal in the first half?
Isn't it just more than attack power?
Do you know the nickname of my tactics?
This is the famous mad dog tactic!
"Mad dog tactics have appeared! God, I read that right, Iraq's coach Patrick Vieira used a big killer in this most crucial game. This tactic, which has made Australia and Saudi Arabia suffer a lot of losses, it seems that they are going to fight hard, and the Chinese team will resist it! ”
As soon as Iraq's formation changed, Liu Jianhong's exclamation came out in the live broadcast room, as an old commentator who has commented on the Bundesliga for many years. He was not unfamiliar with this set of famous German tactics.
In 2004, Aachen's head coach Dieter Hecking created this tactic based on the characteristics of each player in the team. Then, after more than a year of refinement, this tactic almost sealed the victory as soon as it came on the pitch in key matches, and finally in 2006, Dieter Hecking successfully led Aachen to the Bundesliga.
The style of this set of tactics also made the Bundesliga team in the first two years secretive, and in the end, I don't know which coach gave this set of tactics a mad dog's nickname, and it has been used since then.
Although it doesn't sound good, this set of tactics back then was definitely the hero of Aachen's armor rush. It's a pity that after entering the Bundesliga, Dieter Heggin was summoned by Hannover 96, the team he was in when he was a player, and did not let the mad dog tactics set off any storm in the Bundesliga.
Unexpectedly, Vieira, the coach from the Netherlands, actually used this tactic on the Iraqi team, perhaps because Iraq has experienced several years of war, so this tactic is particularly outstanding for them. It turned the heartache of these players into a force like no other, showing the momentum of Aachen back then.
In this Asian Cup, the Iraqi players are not just here to have a tour, they want the whole of Asia to see their tenacious spirit. At the pre-match kick-off meeting, Vieira made a bold promise that they would replicate the glory of Aachen 2006 in faraway Asia.
"Mad Dog!"
"Mad Dog!"
"Mad Dog!" Iraqi fans are clearly aware of the team's special tactics, which led Iraq out of the group stage and past the knockout rounds, and now it is at the Bukit Jalil National Stadium.
For the mad dog tactics, they did not mean to laugh at all, on the contrary, in the shouting of the sky, the excitement mixed with excitement is madness! At this time, it is more like their indictment of war, they want peace, they are strong and unyielding!
As soon as the mad dog comes out, who competes. Mad dog in hand, I have the world.
This sentence is a true portrayal of the 2007 Asian Cup. The cheers and cheers in the sky made Wu Feng in front of the goal frown.
Mad Dog Tactics? What does this mean?
In the 2005/2006 season, he had not yet joined Karlsruhe and was unaware of the magic of this tactic.
However, it was not long before the Iraqi players interpreted the term to him, and after Younis told his teammates the manager's instructions, it was as if they had changed as if they had changed a team in an instant.
All the players were running non-stop, and the defenders were constantly pushing forward, and the midfielders were constantly pressing and counter-attacking in the frontcourt.
No, it should be said that even the entire Iraqi front line is beginning to force and counterattack, as if they are attacking and defending everything. No one stopped, no one rested, even if it was far from football. They're also in constant motion, looking for a position.
At this time, Iraq seemed to be like a pack of wolves, not giving up at all, uniting as one, and not letting go of the slightest opportunity everywhere.
"Isn't this kind of exercise a little too much? Will these guys be able to withstand it? Wu Feng in the backcourt couldn't help but think that if it was him, his physical strength would be enough, but it was obvious that these players were just ordinary people.
But thinking about it, the Chinese team was indeed contained by this magical tactic, although the Chinese team's defense was still gritting its teeth and holding on for a few minutes, but in Wu Feng's eyes, it was obvious that his teammates were a little in a hurry.
Knowing that it was dangerous now, Wu Feng hurriedly shouted, "Don't panic, Zhang Cheng defends Nazat, don't make a move easily!" Li Weifeng and Zhang Yaokun just need to defend your opponents, if they want to shoot, let them shoot, as long as they don't give them a chance to make up the shot, get stuck in their position! Both full-backs, you can put the opponent in the middle of the hang, but don't let them easily enter the penalty area, and you can foul if necessary! Don't panic! ”
Wu Feng's roar actually reached the ears of his teammates in this environment, making them nervous as if a warm current surged into their hearts, and the panicked formation also recovered a lot.
"yes, we still have a super goalkeeper, what are you afraid of!"
Almost at the same time, all the Chinese players stabilized again, and although they did not suppress their opponents back, at least they would not be as messy as before.
"Look at the players in the Chinese team, what they're doing."
"Is this gasping, it's only been five minutes, and there's still a lot of time!"
"It's just 1:0, how long can they hold on? How long can that Chinese goalkeeper hold out? ”
The on-site commentator of this game seems to be a South Korean, and he is constantly targeting the Chinese team, especially after Iraq's mad dog tactics have suppressed the past, which makes the Chinese fans on the scene very unhappy.
That's when Younis showed the power of the heart of the team, and he put Ahmed on the left and stood up front alone.
In just a few minutes, the effect was very obvious, and the Chinese team, which had just been invincible, was suddenly extinguished. As long as the Chinese team's pass is cut off by the Iraqi player, it is greeted by a round of rapid attack.
The Mad Dog tactic is to have the full-backs dribble directly into midfield and then immediately link up with the wingers, with midfielder Nazart also coming to help. Of course, the other midfielders will follow immediately, so that through the active movement of the players, a situation can be formed in which more plays are less.
It doesn't matter if the Chinese players want to cut off the ball from the full-backs in the early stages of the attack, because the midfielders will withdraw directly to their own half to play with the full-backs.
This means that whether it's passing or breaking, they always have the advantage. And at all times, they have the advantage of numbers in attack and defense.
Of course, this set of tactics has such a big advantage, but it also has a very big disadvantage, that is, it is extremely expensive. And the probability of players getting injured will become very high, which is a large-scale, extremely high amount of exercise and frequency of running back and forth.
Even Aachen, the initiator of this set of tactics, had a lot of injured players back then, and even buried their entire sports careers, so ordinary people didn't dare to use this tactic, for fear that their sports careers would be ruined all at once.
