Chapter 99: 11 Consecutive Wins (1)
A cautious and eager manager to prove himself, a team full of boundless desire to enter the Bundesliga, the battle between Munich 1860 and Hoffenheim, the Bundesliga promotion horses and the biggest dark horses in the Bundesliga this season, must be passionate. Aside from the pre-match verbal controversy, and not to mention the pre-match tactical arrangements of the two teams, let's turn our attention directly to the first goal of this game.
Hoffenheim is already a tired division, but they are still active in the away game, and there is no conservative at all, Li Huan, who mainly used his energy on defense in the first two games, expanded his defensive area to the midfield from the beginning, and the coverage area of his running is wider than the original, not only the penalty area of the two sides, but even the midfield is covered by him A small half. Twenty minutes into the game, Li Huan, who worked tirelessly, was rewarded, he actually stole Lehmann in the midfield, and then quickly moved forward, at this moment the players of Munich 1860 have not had time to return to their positions. Li Huan's impact came too fast, the back line was a little panicked when he thought of Li Huan's courage last year, and the left-back Shafir didn't dare to get too close to Li Huan to prevent him from being eaten hard, and Lehmann, who lost the ball, desperately rushed back.
And Li Huan got such a rare opportunity, how could he let it go, before the game, Rangnick told him, you must attack, don't be afraid of the back line, and ensure that your own defense area is not broken by the opponent. Li Huan made a feint to go to the bottom line, and then regardless of whether Shafeir was fooled or not, he cut straight to the middle.
Shafir hurried to the middle to follow, and the two central defenders, Costa and Hoffman, also joined in, wanting to block Li Huan on the side. Li Huan saw that the two central defenders blocked and did not pass the ball, he continued to dribble horizontally in the middle, and Sarichhovic, who had been fighting side by side with him for several games, saw this and quickly got out of the way, Li Huan continued to move laterally in the middle, and saw that he almost brought the ball to the other side of the field, he still did not pass, and the fans of Munich 1860 in the stands began to boo Li Huan, and some people laughed and said, "This right-back gentleman looks tired of his position, and now he is ready to play left-back." Someone else sarcastically said: "Xiao Li Feidao is still looking for a place to draw the knife." β
Li Huan took almost half of the stadium horizontally, from the left side of Munich 1860 to the right side, just when the fans in Munich were laughing and boosing, Li Huan saw a gap leading to the opponent's door, he immediately flicked his right foot, half turned around and shot with his left foot.
The left foot is not Li Huan's main foot, but after recovering from the injury, the strength of Li Huan's left foot seems to be stronger than the original, and he half-turned around and pulled out a small arc with his left foot.
Oakes, the goalkeeper who scored a hat trick by Li Huan last season, is still the main goalkeeper, and he was also moving when he saw Li Huan moving, but when Li Huan got up, Oakes judged that there was a little mistake, he saw Li Huan get up when he was volleying with the instep, but he didn't see the ball with a little arc, and he didn't notice it until the ball flew to the defender, but at this time the arc had begun to get bigger, and Oakes had originally made a good save. His hands were just right to meet the flying ball, but suddenly the ball changed the arc of its flight, and it was too late for him to change the angle, and he could only see the ball fly in front of him and into the net on his left side.
1-0, Li Huan opened the scoring for Hoffenheim.
The on-site commentator Mutter said: "After two games, Li Huan finally scored again, this time he used his left foot, his left foot shooting skills are no worse than his right foot, the arc he just kicked is very good, Oakes has nothing to do about it, Munich 1860 is now sleepy, we hope they can cheer up quickly." β
After scoring the goal, Li Huan shook his fingers excitedly and ran to the fan stands, but this time he ran to the fan stands of the away team, but the fan stands of the home team. At this time, people knew that Li Huan originally planned to dedicate this ball to three compatriots. Many fans of Munich 1860 are gossiping and guessing which of the three girls is Li Huan's girlfriend. In the stands of the away team, who was standing up to score a goal for Li Huan, Wana also noticed the stands of the home team fans, she saw three girls, and immediately understood who Li Huan was going to celebrate, Wana's face suddenly turned up, her younger brother Stref was excitedly cheering for Li Huan's shot, seeing her sister's strange appearance, she said: "Sister, why are you unhappy." β
Wana reprimanded: "What do you care about when you watch your balls, children. β
Strel looked at Li Huan and said, "I know why my sister is angry, Li Huan is a young man, and his scandals are often rumored in the team." β
When Wana heard this, she said nervously, "Really? β
Strelf said mischievously: "Of course it's true, my sister asked me to be your private detective, and I promise to report Li Huan's every move to you." β
Wana pouted: "It's not uncommon. I want to know and ask him directly. β
After Li Huan scored for Hoffenheim, Munich 1860's offensive was more fierce, and they couldn't wait to equalize the score immediately, but taking advantage of the panic caused by Li Huan's goal, Hoffenheim also strengthened the offensive, and the two sides started hand-to-hand combat in the midfield. Hoffenheim had another chance five minutes later, but Sarihovic's pass was wasted by his own striker Olhoff and the ball went just wide of the post. Munich 1860 then had chances to score, and their wide crosses continued to threaten Hoffenheim's goal, but the MΓΌnchen 1860 strikers were just as bad as Hoffenheim's forwards, with Reissinger and Diris missing several chances in a row.
Soon the wasted opportunity of Munich 1860 was punished, today's game belongs to Li Huan, Reissinger just missed the opportunity not more than five minutes, Li Huan and Sarihovic played a cross position, Li Huan suddenly appeared in the middle, and Sarihovic was in the side of the cross, in Hoffenheim Sarihovic's free kick is second only to Li Huan, his pass is also accurate, just in front of Li Huan, among the many defensive and offensive players, Li welcomed the ball flying over from the outside and jumped up, He pressed against Munich 1860 defender Costa and a lion shook his head to head the ball into the corner of the goal, making it 2:0.
Wow! As the team came to watch the team's streak of wins, the blood boiled with blood, and they waved their arms excitedly and shouted "Long live Hoffenheim!" Long live Li Huan! "After scoring two goals, the fans thought the game was almost over.
Hoffenheim had a chance to score after 2-0, but they couldn't take it, and then the two sides went into the dressing room to adjust the tactical arrangements for the second half.
After the start of the second half, Munich 1860 took the lead in making tactical arrangements, and they adjusted the midfield, allowing the young player Lehmann to mark Li Huan at half time, so as not to let Li Huan, who has a large range of activities today, continue to play. At this time, Hoffenheim's players' physical fitness is also declining violently, they have been supporting for half a season, and now they really can't stand it physically, the first few games they relied on the strength of the spirit to win the final victory, but the spiritual inspiration can not always become the power of reality, otherwise human beings are free, and no one has to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation. Hoffenheim's players put in a much higher effort than the rest of the Bundesliga, and it was a miracle that they were able to hold on until the end.
Trailing 0-2, Munich 1860 was also a bit embarrassed in front of their own folks, who put all their energy into attacking with strength. The offense that Rangnick has been emphasizing is also ineffective now, they don't even have a chance to possess the ball, where there is a chance to press forward, they can only passively play defensive counterattacks first.
Without fitness, the players' reflexes, explosiveness and thinking will become sluggish, Munich 1860 got a lot of shots on the edge of the Hoffenheim penalty area, but today not only did their forwards not have shooting boots, but their midfielders did not have them, and their attack was fruitless. Finally, it was the defender who brought a goal to Munich 1860. Centre-back Hoffmann also cut into Hoffenheim's edge of the box when his team-mates attacked, and it was Hoffenheim's captain Matthias who cleared the ball in front of him, and Hoffmann certainly didn't waste this golden opportunity, and Hoffmann volleyed the ball into Hoffenheim's goal.
The fans waited for nearly 70 minutes and did not see their team score, and their frustration can be imagined, Hofmann's sudden goal made all the fans of Munich 1860 excited, and the stadium finally turned into a cauldron, fluttering and bubbling with enthusiasm. Shouts resounded in the sky.
Commentator Mutter exclaimed: "Is it fashionable for defenders to score goals now?" The strikers and midfielders, who were supposed to score, were dumbfounded, and now the three goals shown on the scoreboard were all scored by defenders. However, Hoffmann's goal made the game full of suspense again, Munich 1860 only one goal behind Hoffenheim, which is related to the position of Munich 1860 in the first half of the season, they must bite the score, not leave all hope in the second half. The defenders have overfulfilled the task, now it depends on the power of the forwards, they can't stand in a position and not work, now there are offensive defenders in football, and even goal-scoring defenders like Li Huan, will there still be defensive forwards? β
