144 How to respond to toughness
The time came to 5/8/16 as Sunset trained more devotedly, and Freiburg would host Heidenheim at half past three in the afternoon.
Freiburg had already secured the Bundesliga title and Heidenheim were eighth, and it was supposed to be a game without desire.
However, the whole population of Freiburg did not want to let the well-prepared celebrations fall short, and a victory was the best option to bring the atmosphere to a climax.
With the exception of Stenzel, who was suspended for accumulating yellow cards, Freiburg sent almost all of their main lineup to the game, with only Sunset staying on the bench as a backhand.
In addition to Sunset, who wanted to do something for the celebration, another thing in particular that he wanted to do was Niedlechner.
The Freiburg No. 3 striker, who spent well in the second half of the season on loan from Mainz, played for Heidenheim and only moved to Mainz after making a name for himself there, making a particularly meaningful appearance against his former club and in a celebration game.
"Yu, I heard that you hired a personal trainer? What do you practice, physical fitness? Hurry up and train your fitness and pass me more good balls..."
While watching the game, Niederlechner is close to Sunset. As a striker, I definitely want to have a good relationship with a midfielder like Sunset who takes over the ball as soon as he gets on the court. Even if Sunset is recognized as an impartial organizer, whoever has a better chance will pass it on, but there is no standard for this, no one can say that the person has a better chance when the advantage is not too different, and then the relationship will definitely work, and it is always good to have a good relationship, Niederlechner thinks.
Sunset promises to give him more passes and good passes, thinking about Lucas's analysis in the use of data. Lucas made detailed statistics on all the data that several frontcourt players in the team could find, how many goals were scored and conceded in which area by the frontcourt players, and they were better at growing their left and right feet, and what kind of ball they liked to receive there and under what circumstances... There are a lot of analysis reports on everyone. There are even different additions and subtractions based on the characteristics of different types of defenders and goalkeepers.
When both Vahiri and Sunset think that in a game, with a lot of exercise and electric light, so many kinds of metrics are not practical. Lucas stayed up all night. After a detailed statistical analysis, he blurred the court chart, and painted the most threatening areas of the frontcourt players into color blocks, so that Sunset could see them at a glance.
After adding and subtracting from his own and opponent's respective stats, Lucas believes that Niederlechner is more dangerous in this game, which means that Sunset should give him the ball first in a larger area. Sunset also has the intention to try Lucas's paper talk is not practical, and naturally agrees to Niederlechner's overtures.
In a joyous atmosphere, the situation on the field in Freiburg was not obvious. Not to be outdone, Heidenheim showed a tough attitude at the beginning, even if he even received two yellow cards in the first half.
On the contrary, the Freiburg players, who have won everything and are starting to plan for the holidays and next season, are a little constrained. Especially when Griffo returns from injury next season, his position will be even more awkward. I heard that he had the idea of moving to another team, perhaps because he was worried about injury, and he was even more timid in the face of Heidenheim's tough defense, and his performance was very poor.
After shouting a few times to no avail, Streich directly asked Sunset to start preparing in 30 minutes, and took the opportunity to teach:
'In my team, emotions are never allowed to be brought on the pitch. It's a matter of what I think about whether the game is heavy or not, and whatever player is supposed to be responsible for every minute he's on the pitch, understand?"
Sunset knows that this is teaching, and so does his own understanding of the attitude towards the game, so she firmly replies:
"Yes, Coach, I think so too."
Streich takes a serious look at Sunset, and after making sure he's serious, he nods his head for Sunset to warm up.
Streich, who has both a new school of ideas for tactical innovation in football and an old-school German coach's emphasis on will, doesn't want to be a weak guy at the heart of his chosen future. After the reminder, he waited to see Sunset's next performance, and he felt that this kind of inconsequential game was the best way to see the true willpower of the players, and that players who cared too much about gains and losses were not worth the burden.
Sunset's warm-up has been cheered by the fans, with some shouting Sunset's more and more standard name, and others rushing over to call him out for a quick change from the soft guy on the field, Freiburg doesn't need that guy.
"Sister Qianqian, brother-in-law is so good? It's hard to hear a German call a Chinese name so standardly..."
Xia Qianqian's roommate in the stands was a little surprised to see the movement caused by Sunset's warm-up, and shook Xia Qianqian's arm and said excitedly.
However, Xia Qianqian's focus was obviously different, and he withdrew his gaze from the sidelines and said dissatisfiedly:
"What brother-in-law, we're just friends, and if we want to meet, we still call me to turn my face with you..."
The girl was not afraid of her, she had not been afraid of Xia Qianqian's 'weakness' since she discovered it, and made a grimace and said:
"He said no, he rushed over as soon as he knew that this game was important to him, and he couldn't wait to miss every important moment of others..."
……
Unbeknownst to the afterglow of the stands, he came on to replace Hovnagar on 36 minutes after the warm-up.
At first sight, the first time he received the ball, Heidenheim's right midfielder Strauss was a fierce sliding tackle, and he didn't care about carrying a yellow card on his back.
Sunset didn't choose to go head-to-head in order to prove tough, nor did she panic and rush the ball, but gently picked off Strausch's sliding tackle, used her touch to easily get past her opponent, and then accelerated to dribble forward with almost no pause.
Freiburg's assistant coach Wosler, who had been following the development of the situation, smiled slightly, made a gesture to Streich's temple while standing on the sidelines, and then leaned back comfortably in the back of the chair and enjoyed watching the subsequent development.
"Wosler is saying that Yu is a player who plays with his brains. That's true, Yu is getting more and more proficient in dealing with it, and he has never been a guy who plays football with his body. If you try to fight for the sake of toughness, it's not bravery, it's stupid..."
Sky Sports commentator Schmitz praised Sunset as always.
Although the 38-point breakthrough didn't result in a goal, with Sunset's steady break and passes, Freiburg's offense was sharp again.
In the face of Heidenheim's ferocious defensive moves, Sunset, who had been tormented by the pull and band for a week, rarely gave them a chance to succeed, and gave full play to their agility and agility, repeatedly forming breakthroughs, and responding to the opponent with another kind of toughness.
