Chapter 225: This team is a bit fierce
Not to mention the questions of his teammates, even Lin Yi, who had just fallen asleep, didn't know what kind of performance he would have. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Midfielders, forwards, and forwards, I have tried all these positions, and among them, the performance in the central midfield position is the worst.
Of course, Lin Yi's worries didn't last long, otherwise he wouldn't have fallen asleep so quickly.
Klopp, who made this arrangement that made everyone uneasy, looked at the newspaper like no one else.
Yesterday's game was reported by a number of media outlets, describing it as a resurgence for Borussia Dortmund.
After reading a few newspapers, Klopp felt very bored, and there was nothing new in the report, so he rolled the newspaper into a tube and prepared to throw it into the wastebasket later.
At this moment, the assistant sitting next to him suddenly handed over another newspaper.
"What? The media is at this level, and I feel like now I can be a sports journalist if I don't coach well. Well? ”
As he said this, he suddenly realized that he had not read the newspaper, and the headline on it was very attractive.
"Public Enemy of Naples: China Forest! 》
Klopp smiled, "Not really, right?" Isn't it just that if you win a game, you become a public enemy? What did your players think when they were chasing Lin frantically in the last game? ”
The report may have been completed after an interview with Zunica, and the whole article emphasized that Lin Yi was a person with no court morality.
There is a paragraph in the middle that reads: Napoli's defensive stalwart Zuniga wants to remind all the players who may be paired with Lin Yi in the future through us to be careful of his endless dirty methods and pay attention to protecting their bodies. And on behalf of all the Napoli players, he also said that he will definitely fight against such a player who plays by means to the end.
After reading this passage, Klopp just smiled coldly and put the newspaper together with the previous one.
Whatever Naples says, it doesn't matter what he cares, because it's all the complaints of the losers.
What they need to do now is find a way to continue to win in the league and consolidate their position at the top of the table.
Mainz, although their performances since the start of the season have not been satisfactory, their real strength cannot be ignored.
Especially the Japanese striker Shinji Okazaki in their team, this guy's combat effectiveness is in no way inferior to the average European striker.
Because there was a Japanese player in his team who helped the team make a leap forward, Klopp still has a high opinion of the level of Japanese players.
In addition, when Shinji Kagawa was still in Dortmund, he once mentioned his national team teammates to Klopp, saying that this not tall Shinji Okazaki is actually very strong.
Don't look at Klopp with a substitute-dominated lineup, but it's not because he gave up the game or that he despised Mainz. On the contrary, he actually respects Mainz as an opponent.
He did so with the aim of protecting the players' stamina through rotation to prevent more people like Aubameyang in the second half of the season.
In other words, not only in this next game, but in many games after that, these substitutes will get more chances.
How far a team can go in a long season is by no means entirely determined by how strong the main players are.
……
Reuss and Lewandowski, who will be rested in this game, as well as captain Kyle and others, obviously feel very casual, and several people sit together and chat.
They have also apparently seen the reports of their match against Napoli and scoffed at the media.
After reading what Zuniga said, Royce nodded approvingly, "Lin told me yesterday, and he did give Zuniga a moment at that time, I feel that I should also learn his trick, it feels quite effective." ”
Lewandowski, who is more present in the middle than Reuss on the wing, is also nodding.
"If you use his tricks in the restricted area, it feels like it will be more effective, and it can be more hidden."
The most upright captain, Kyle, listened to the thoughts of this group of junior brothers, and said that he couldn't stand it, "Lin has so many upright skills, you don't want to ask others for advice, why do you want to learn these side ways?" Is that right? But then again, it seems that I can learn from him and use these tactics against the opponent's strikers. ”
"Come on! Sebastian, an elderly player like you, aren't you afraid of moving too slowly and revealing flaws to give your opponent some points? ”
They are obviously confident in the team, or Lin Yi.
They even felt that Lin Yi could easily lead his teammates to solve the battle in the first half, and he could rest in the second half.
Klopp was much more nervous than the optimism of his players, and he was well aware of the quality of his opponents.
If Klopp is famous at a young age, then Mainz manager Thomas Tuchel is even more so, six years younger than Klopp, he led Mainz to play an excellent record of seven consecutive wins in the opening game in the 2010~2011 season.
Mainz's poor results this season can only be attributed to their lack of caution, as they have played against the top teams in the league.
While everyone was thinking, the flight had already arrived in Mainz, and the people in Dortmund were pulling their luggage and stepping off the plane.
Lin Yi, who breathed in the fresh air, let out a long yawn, his sleep quality had always been good, and he slept soundly on the plane.
At this time, there were already many reporters waiting at the exit of the airport, holding long guns and short cannons, waiting for Dortmund and his party very seriously.
Lin Yi has always disliked dealing with reporters, and even said that he feels disgusted with things like cameras.
So he just walked out with his teammates with his head down, which was fine, and everything was fine.
But at this moment, the reporter, who didn't know where it was, suddenly shouted, "Lin, I hope you don't use tactics against the players in Mainz, okay?" ”
As an excellent player, Lin Yi can be called a watchful and listener, and after hearing such a shout, he actually turned his head to look over.
The person who shouted was not to be outdone, and when he saw Lin Yi coming over, he also looked at Lin Yi with a very disdainful look.
Lin Yi didn't try to kill him with his eyes, just smiled coldly at him, lowered his head and continued to walk forward.
The man still didn't want to say something, but Lin Yi's actions made him very helpless, and he had a feeling of punching him empty.
Lin Yi, who never wore big headphones, ripped off his magic voice from the top of Royce's head next to him, and then buckled it on his head.
Royce, who didn't know what was going on, was startled, and then watched as Lin Yi pulled the music player he had attached to his headphones out of his trouser pocket.
Listening to the deafening music coming out of the headphones, Lin Yi suddenly felt that it was good to buy one of these things, even if he kept pretending, so that those flies would not keep screaming in his ears.
Because of the dense schedule, the Dortmund players got off the plane and went directly to the home stadium in Mainz to step on the field and acclimatize to the field.
As soon as I got to Grand Bahrain, I returned the headphones and music player to Royce, "I finally know why you wear these things when you get off the plane, I really can't hear what those people are calling outside, it's very good." ”
"Yes! Otherwise, why do you think you should wear this, what? You need it too, and I'll send you one when I get back to Dortmund. ”
Coming to the Mainz Circuit Breaking Stadium, which can accommodate 34,000 and 34 people, Lin Yi first looked at the stadium with a strange name outside, wait, we will conquer you tomorrow.
The turf at Mainz's home stadium is still in good condition, after all, not every coach likes to turn their home stadium into a vegetable patch before a game.
After a brief adaptation, Jurgen Klopp gathered his players to his side for the final touches on tomorrow's game.
Lin Yi, who had studied the opponent in advance, suddenly thought of the feeling he felt when he saw the opponent's squad before, this team is actually a bit fierce!
The reason for thinking this is not because Lin Yi saw any strong people, but because there are many players in this team whose names are very strong.
According to the habits of Chinese, foreign players are generally called by their surnames.
Although Lin Yi has been in Europe for a few years, this habit has not changed, so Mainz has Muller and Bale, and in addition to these two, there is also a crossover superstar Nowitzki.
ridicule is ridicule, Lin Yi actually found someone worth noting.
Based on the videos he watched of opponents before the game, as well as the analysis of Mainz's players, he knew that the midfielder he was going to play directly against was not an easy match.
Johannes Gais, the German who is only a year older than himself and is already firmly in the main midfield position in Mainz.
Lin Yi controlled a soccer ball under his feet and tossed back and forth between his feet, Gais, damn it...... It seems like an opponent to look forward to.
Meanwhile, at the training ground in Mainz, young manager Thomas Tuchel is also deploying, drawing his predictions for Borussia Dortmund on the tactical board, with all the arrows pointing to the '10'.
"Johannes, my request is simple, limit this Chinese, don't give him a chance, it's better to try to compress his touch."
As he said this, he picked up the marker again and drew a thick black line on the tactical board, "Park! When the time comes, you will help Johannes more and keep this guy under control, which will definitely be a good thing for us. ”
Tuchel said as he put a line between the two points up front, 'Okazaki, use your speed advantage to suppress the opponent's backline and try to break up their front, midfield and back. ”
Although it was not a very important game in this round, both teams were prepared before the game.
Hoffman and Dukesch, who started for the first time this season, were actually a little nervous, and the two in the same room couldn't sleep the night before the game.
"Malvin, what do you say if you lose tomorrow?" Hoffman asked, a little nervously.
Although he is also known as a potential star, after a few months of sitting on the bench, it seems that the original sharpness has gradually worn out.
Especially when he saw the wonderful performance of Lin Yi, who was younger than himself, although he didn't say it, he still had envy and doubt about himself in his heart.
Dukesch had a comparatively better mentality than Hoffman, "What do you say? The first start of the season, I actually thought about losing, a little bit of a pursuit of whether it was good or not, now sleep well, and then think about how to celebrate tomorrow's goal. ”
"Then why aren't you sleeping yet?"
"I was asleep, but you woke me up."
"What are you kidding? I saw you with your eyes open all the time! ”
"Alright! The bed was a bit uncomfortable and I wasn't used to it. ”
"I saw that you slept quite soundly in the previous away game."
"Okay, don't ink, I'm making you so nervous now......"
"Can I be blamed for this?!"
The two of you just said a word to me, as if it really killed a lot of nervousness.
Fighting, both of them are sleepy, and they both fall asleep.
Lin Yi, who has always been regarded by some people as never knowing what nervousness is, has already fallen asleep at this time, and his only thought before going to bed is that he hopes that the breakfast provided by the hotel tomorrow morning can be a little richer and taste better.
The next morning, after breakfast, the team gathered again at the Mainz Circuit Breaker.
Since today's game is played in the afternoon, it is necessary to warm up early.
Hoffman and Dukesch were all around Lin Yi, not knowing what they were discussing, while the others were doing their regular warm-up training.
Blaszczykowski, who is often in the rotation, is exchanging ideas with Reuss and seeking guidance.
Although Duksch and Hoffman can often get Lin Yi's pass assists when they are training in the team, the two people who cooperate less with Lin Yi in practical games are still a little weak-hearted.
Lin Yi obviously saw that the state of the two teammates was not right, and he laughed helplessly, who was younger than the two of them.
"I said, why are you two so nervous? Just play well! We've got to win this game. In other words, we must win every next game. Cheer up! ”
But after all, people like Lin Yi who have a strong desire to win, or self-confidence, of course, can also be said to be heartless and heartless, after all, are still a minority.
But in the team opposite them, there is a person who is almost as heartless as her.
'Johannes, how do you feel right now, you're going to be up against one of the best midfielders in the league so far this season.
Gaiss listened to his teammates' questions and was silent for a long time before saying, "I feel that I can actually be regarded as one of them." (To be continued.) )
