Chapter 354: Giving and Giving

With the referee's whistle, the game finally started with the frantic shouts of the fans.

It's just that as time goes by, the Jena fans who were still passionate just now are a little unmotivated at this time, not that Jena is being abused by Hannover, nor that the Jena players are not in good shape.

But judging from the live game, Hannover 96 doesn't seem to pay attention to this game at all, their leading scorer Moham didn't even play, and their middle is also supported by several team substitutes, although their main force on the defensive line is all there, but a discerning person can see at a glance that Hannover 96 typically does not want to consume energy in this game.

Is this contempt for Jena?

Of course not.

Slomka silently rejected this statement in his heart, not because he didn't want to go a few more rounds in the German Cup, but because Hannover 96 was fifth in the Bundesliga, he couldn't make this decision.

The top three teams in the Bundesliga can directly qualify for the Champions League, while the fourth place qualifies for the qualifiers, although the Champions League competition ended not long ago last season, but this end is only the beginning of a new round of the competition.

All teams have to work hard to qualify for the next Champions League.

Although Hannover 96 has been mixed in the Bundesliga for ten years, compared with the giants of the Bundesliga, Hannover 96's bench lineup is still too bad, of course, they will not say that they can't cope with the German Cup or the league, but Slomka feels that he must give up at this time.

If his opponent was not Jena, maybe Slomka would have asked the team to fight hard to reach the quarterfinals, but at this time, with Ye Xin's Jena, Slomka was not willing to let the players waste this physical strength.

Dortmund's defeat made him clearly aware of Ye Xin's terrible, because many of Dortmund's players have been affected to some extent in their games since then, and Slomka does not think that his players' mental quality is much better than that of Dortmund's talents.

Coupled with the temptation of Champions League qualification, he made up his mind to focus on the league, and as for the German Cup, which is only a name but not much advantage, Slomka feels that he can give up.

There is a gift to gain, this is his life creed.

It's just that his willingness to play a very boring game made for an unusually boring game, although Hannover 96's semi-bench team still played hard, but this kind of attack did no harm to Jena with Ye Xin.

And Haike's instructions to Yerner are balanced tactical play, the old-fashioned 442 was intended to test Hannover's strength, after all, Hannover is not a weak team in the Bundesliga, Haike feels that the offensive and defensive balance of 442 is the best way for Jena, but I didn't expect Hanover to seem to have no idea of fighting with Jena at all.

This led to an unusually deserted scene, and the game between the two sides was completely unworthy of the frantic shouts of the fans in the stands.

However, the scheming Heiko did not rush to launch an offensive order, there are too many coaches who can calculate people in these years, and Slomka of Hannover 96 is one of the representatives.

And one of his characteristics is to promote and develop young players, so the young faces on the field are not necessarily Slomka's back-moves, and sometimes it is very easy to surprise people by boldly using young people.

Heiko didn't want this kind of surprise to happen to him, and he was determined to win this game.

So the first half ended uneventfully under the silent command of the two coaches.

This made the fans in the stands cry out unpleasantly, without passionate attacks, without beautiful shots, naturally there would be no Ye Xin's goosebumps-making defense.

After playing for a long time, this game is not as happy as the ordinary league.

The fans began to complain in their hearts, but even so, they did not have an overzealous situation, they are still satisfied with Jena's current performance, although it is not exciting, but everyone can see that Jena in this game is completely free of the panic of the last game with Aachen.

Everyone knows what they have to do, everyone stands in a stable position, and everyone's expression is so confident.

It's just that their fighting spirit is getting stronger and stronger, and the fans can clearly feel that Jena's players occasionally want to step forward, but because of the manager's deterrence, they don't release their desire to attack too much.

They want to win.

It's just that the more the players in Jena are so combative, the more fans feel the importance of the figure in front of Jena's goal.

When he left, Jena was like a swarm of headless flies, unable to find the north, south, and west at all.

When he was there, Jena was like a group of warriors with sharp swords, and there was no one to stop them.

The strength of Aachen and Hannover 96 is not on the same level at all, but when Jena has Ye Xin, Hannover 96, which is several times stronger than Aachen, is the same as Aachen in Jena's eyes.

Jena with Ye Xin is a strong team, and Jena without him is a soft persimmon.

Although the fans know it in their hearts, they don't care, Ye Xin is determined to stay in Jena for the rest of his life, and Jena has no idea of letting him go, so the fans are not worried that Jena will not last long, as long as Ye is there, all teams will be afraid of Jena three points.

Three points?

It's 10 points.

After the second half, Slomka saw Jena finally show her fangs, and Jena's formation finally changed to their signature attacking formation, 3-4-1-2, Jena's self-proclaimed cavalry tactic.

If it were other teams, Slomka would only give them four words, but Jena wouldn't.

Despite the dismal quality of Jena's backline, Slomka had to admit that this line-up was crucial to bringing out Jena's attacking prowess.

Three defenders and four attacking midfielders, and three average defenders, this kind of lineup makes people want to play against Jena, but the teams that have played know that this is a bright red poisonous fruit.

That's right, this Jena defense line is indeed like a sieve, but their defensive strategy is also very simple, that is, they don't care what kind of wall-hitting cooperation you play, they just ensure that Ye Xin in front of the goal only faces one enemy in any situation.

And the rest of the matter will be left to Ye Xin to solve, which is a strong confidence in Ye Xin.

Because of one-on-one, the Chinese seems to have never lost his hand.

Terrible prediction, precise movements, quick reactions.

A goalkeeper who has turned goalkeeping into an art almost a profession, Slomka sighed jealously, if I were given a Ye Xin, I would bring Hanover at least ten Champions League trophies.
