Chapter 279: Just Hold On

Weidenfeller has defended Borussia Dortmund's goal for many years. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Although he is not the best of all goalkeepers, he can be regarded as a relatively consistent goalkeeper.

From the moment he stood in front of Dort's goal, he was relatively healthy.

Unexpectedly, this time a large-scale injury attacked, and even he was hit.

Bouacchi was really glad that he had taken Lin Yi's suggestion at this time, and reserved a substitution at halftime.

If it weren't for the fact that Reus and Lewandowski were not in the squad due to injury, they might not have a place as a substitute goalkeeper in their squad. It's a blessing in disguise, anyway, today they had Australians on the bench.

Langerak didn't even have time to warm up before he was substituted, after all, the goalkeeper position is not a joke.

Weidenfeller was carried by someone, and as he walked over, he did not forget to give Longrack a high-five.

"It's been less than ten minutes, brother! Resist it! ā€

The Australians, who were on the verge of being in danger, lived up to expectations this time and held the score 2-0 until the final whistle.

In fact, it had nothing to do with him, because the Freiburg players fought too hard in the second half, and there were general cramps and lack of breath in the last few minutes.

This made the Dortmund backline, which was tapped with them, also breathe a sigh of relief.

In the end, the score was fixed at 2-0, and Dortmund swept away the decline of being upset by Nuremberg in the previous round and won all three points away.

It was also somewhat comforting to Klopp, who took at least three points away from the two wounded.

At full-time, the Dortmund players dragged their tired bodies back into the dressing room.

Before Duke could sit down, he complained to Lin Yi.

"Lin, what the hell did you do with those two guys in the first half? They almost kicked my leg in the second half. ā€

Lin Yi, who was questioned by his teammate Xingshi, smiled, "I really just plotted against them alone, I think they treat you like this, they should be jealous that you are more handsome, that's why they are like this, right?" ā€

Du Keshi couldn't help laughing when Lin Yi was so fooled, and stroked his wet hair.

"I can't tell! Listening to your analysis, I think you have some point. ā€

The teammates were laughing and laughing, no matter how bad the scene was, it was always worth having fun when we won.

After laughing, Duke Shi patted Lin Yi on the shoulder with his backhand.

"Brother, you must be careful in the future, this level of defense is unbearable for ordinary people."

Lin Yi smiled, I can't stand it, it's for sure, but this is not something I can be careful if I say be careful.

Klopp and Reuss and Lewandowski, who were also dressed in casual clothes, both came to the dressing room at this time, and they were worried in the stands for nearly two hours, and it was finally over.

Jurgen Klopp didn't waste much time and went straight to the post-match press conference.

Now all he has to do is finish the press conference as soon as possible and then lead his team back to Dortmund for tonight's flight.

He had already made the decision to have only one training session in the days leading up to the game against Barcelona.

The rest of the time is left for the players to recover and replenish their fitness.

And the sooner you start, the better.

They face Barcelona in four days' time, and they will not be able to let up even with a two-goal advantage.

In the round of 16 of the Champions League, there are generally not too many upsets.

Of course, the turbulent Real Madrid team of a few years ago does not count.

The first round of the quarter-finals has been played in full, with the strong team winning and the weak team losing, except for the pair of Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund.

So now more media are not paying attention to how the last runner-up will respond, they are more calculating the possibility and probability of Barcelona turning around, and making comments that Barcelona still has hope through data and previous games.

Klopp watched the reports at home and didn't know whether to cry or laugh, so he simply turned off his computer and threw all the newspapers into the wastebasket.

The final whistle of the game did not blow, and no one could firmly believe in what the outcome of the game would be.

At this time, in China, the media and fans are still cheering for Dortmund.

Although Lin Yi's performance in the national team is not very good, he is currently the only player in Europe.

If you don't cheer him, who will you cheer him on?

There are other arguments about the decline of the media and the support of domestic fans.

Lin Yi didn't know anything as always, and since he returned to Dortmund, his biggest task every day was to sleep.

In addition to sleeping and eating, he trains almost always in his backyard under Eva's guidance.

In the Camp Nou game, although his team won the game, he never forgot the feeling of being completely confined by Sergio Busquets in the second half.

In the next game, according to the coach's arrangement before the game, he will be the axis of the team's attack (in fact, hasn't it always been?). So in a direct conversation with Busquets, whether he can have an advantage will be the most important factor.

Only if I can ensure that I don't get entangled by Busquets will I be able to better manage the game in midfield.

But want to deal with him...... It's really not an easy thing to do.

The Champions League game is really insightful.

In the previous game against Arsenal, Lin Yi felt the ability of the top midfielder.

By observing Ozil's passing and possession at that time, he also saw certain shortcomings in his own body.

And this competition with Barcelona let Lin Yi know what the real top midfielder is.

Whether it's defensive positioning, one-on-one, help defense and mastery of the whole backfield, Busquets has done a good job.

Maybe if you want to deal with him in the next game, you should come up with something special?

Thinking of this, Lin Yi immediately turned on the computer and found a large number of videos about Busquets from his video library.

Many people's impressions and perceptions of Busquets are inseparable from the 2010~2011 season, the Champions League semifinals in the Champions League against Inter Milan in the game of the peeking shock.

Because of this prejudice, many people ignore the true ability of this top midfielder who is still improving.

"Actor" and "professor" are the words that have been most associated with Busquets in recent years.

And how can this defender, who has won all the titles with Barcelona and Spain as the main player, not have something outstanding?

While thinking about this, Lin watched them one by one at first.

At the moment, he is watching more videos from the past two years.

After all, what we need to do now is to analyze the weaknesses of the opponent, not to learn from this person.

Each player's performance on the pitch will vary at different stages.

This change may come from technology, style, and of course, location and mentality.

Lin Yi watched Busquets' video clip as he stepped on a soccer ball that had been sitting in the living room and tossed it with his foot.

Eva is obviously a little addicted to cooking these days, and after giving Lin Yi's leg a massage, she soaked in the kitchen again.

Lin Yi was also happy to have a delicious meal after studying his opponent, so he didn't continue to pester his girlfriend.

Meanwhile, at the Barcelona training ground, Martino is giving his players the final arrangements and guidance before the game.

However, it was very embarrassing that the players didn't seem to be very willing to deal with him, he was pointing and drawing with a tactical board in front of him, while the players just looked down at the tips of their shoes, or exchanged heads and ears in twos and threes.

Martino also feels that he is gradually losing control of the dressing room.

It's not that the players want to cause any civil unrest or have any other ideas, the main reason is that the results of their own team are really bad.

In the words of Xavi and Andres Iniesta, there has never been a year in which we have declared that the season has almost ended in February.

Not only that, what makes the whole Barcelona team find it difficult to accept is that the head coach does not seem to have any means and ways to solve the current situation, so he can only let the team develop like this.

Are we really just going to give up on this season and wait for the next season to start all over again?

It's impossible to say without pride, and since Pep Guardiola took over, he has achieved success in four seasons.

Not to mention the six crowns in the first year, winning the Champions League twice in four years, plus the league even makes Barcelona players have a stronger desire to win than ordinary teams.

Even last season, Tito Vilanova, who has been suffering from illness since taking over the team, led the team to a record-breaking La Liga title.

But what about now?

The Copa del Rey exited early, two points behind Atletico Madrid in the league, and the Champions League was beaten by Borussia Dortmund in a row at home stadium.

To be reasonable, such a team result, such a head coach, it is indeed difficult to convince the public.

Martino was very embarrassed to make tactical arrangements, and he didn't know if anyone was listening to what he said now.

In the end, it was Subisareta, the respected technical director, who stood up and spoke.

"Carlos, Xavi, Andres, do you three have any thoughts on the coach's arrangement?"

The three people who were pointed out can basically be regarded as the three most respected in the Barcelona dressing room now.

As the star of the house, Messi also has a considerable degree of voice in the locker room, but he also respects the three big brothers.

There will be a lot of emotions in the players against Martino, but against Subisareta, everyone is still respectful enough.

Xavi, as the tactical core and the brain on the field, was the first to stand up and speak.

"That's right, Mr. Coach, I think in the next game, we should play something that we didn't have before."

With that, Harvey walked over to the tactical board and shifted the position of the two magnets on it.

And this move also directly made the classic "4-3-3" formation of Barcelona arranged by Martino become the "3-4-3" that Guardiola tried many times before but did not achieve the desired effect.

"We have conceded two away goals and all we can do is argue with them and try to score as soon as possible or get the result of the trial as soon as possible. With this formation, it is the most suitable. ā€

After Xavi said this, he turned his head to look at Iniesta, and the two continued the tacit understanding on the field, looked at each other and nodded.

"Jordi and Daniel have minor injuries now, so I'll take a break in that game and replace Sesque."

After Fabregas was called, he also nodded, indicating that he was in good shape.

Martino listened to Harvey's clear analysis, and couldn't help but nodded, this is the real La Masia, with red and blue blood flowing in his bones.

After Xavi finished speaking, he turned to the head coach, "Of course, Mr. Coach, I just put forward my idea, if you have any better ideas, I hope my suggestion will not affect you." ā€

In fact, it's really not Martino who can't.

However, he may not be a good fit for Barcelona.

Compared to his performance in the dressing room, Klopp is much more at ease.

"Come on! Lads! I had enough rest, and the last training session before the game cheered me up! Do you hear that?! Say what about you! Lin, keep your head up! Let's play '4-3-1-2' in the next game, you as this '1', don't you listen to the tactics for me? Want to lose? ā€

Klopp said to Lin Yi in a rough voice, while his teammates were still coaxing.

Lin Yi hurriedly raised his head and looked at the head coach, although this tactic Klopp has been arranged no less than three times, but the coach wants to arrange it, what else can you say as a player?

"The three midfielders, you have to actively press the opponent, after breaking the ball, give it to Lin if you can, if you can't give it to him, just make a long pass and go to Robert and Marco."

The team doctor has already indicated that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who went off injured in the game against Freiburg, is not in any major problems.

However, Klopp decided to put the Gabonese on the bench first in the first half.

Fortunately, neither Lewandowski nor Reus have been bothered for too long, and from the training just now, both of them are in good shape.

Klopp finally laid out a few more precise tactics to the point of being personal, and finally said, "Don't think so much, just resist!" As long as we can withstand these 90 minutes, we will be winners. ā€

Speaking of this, he paused, "But if I can end the battle early by scoring goals, then I will definitely not refuse, okay!" Let's keep training. Lin, Sven, Ilka, you three come over for a moment. ā€

The three people who were called followed Klopp to another small field, and Klopp kicked a football to Lin Yi.

"Come on! You two go on, let him experience this feeling of high-pressure pressing more. I don't have to feel uncomfortable dealing with the Spaniard. (To be continued.) )
