Chapter 63: Beta?
That's a goal?
Although it wasn't the first time Ingolstadt had attacked, it was their first threatening shot on goal.
The Hoffenheim players stood in place, staring blankly at the ball in the goal, and everyone's face was unbelievably confused and aggrieved!
Beta, who was sitting on the bench on the sidelines, listened to the cheers of the fans in Ingolstadt behind, and he was also full of feelings!
"It would be nice if I was on the field just now!" Beta clenched his fists, he knew that if he was on the field, whether it was defending Romer or Wolfas, he would not easily let the opponent easily get up and pass the ball or shoot!
"Cheer up! Don't worry about the goal, we still have a lot of time! Hold on defensively, then attack! This game, we want to win! Rangnick was on the sidelines, shouting at his players, trying to wake them up. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"What? Still want to win? Dreaming, right? ”
"I see that your head is squeezed by the door, and you dare to shout in front of us!"
"Ingolstadt is going to beat them five to zero today!"
"Old man, hurry up and go back and hug your grandson, you won't retire when you're old!"
When the audience heard Rangnick shouting to win, they immediately booed, and the noise almost drowned out Rangnick's command.
……
In the first half, the collapse of the back line that Rangnick feared did not materialize. Hoffenheim were much more cautious and did not let the distance between the midfield and the backline stretch too long.
There was an echo between the front and back, and the midfielder was involved in the defense at the back, which was still able to barely block Ingolstadt's attack.
However, the problem also came, Hoffenheim's defense gradually increased in intensity, but the attack in the frontcourt, Marić and Copado seemed a little isolated! didn't even attack the opponent's penalty area, and was swallowed up by Ingolstadt's defenders!
As a result, the situation in the second half of the first half, Hoffenheim was almost pinned down in the penalty area on his side, and Ingolstadt's two forwards took turns to bombard Hoffenheim's goal.
Hoffenheim also attacked from time to time, but their attack lost its edge after midfield.
At halftime, the players went back to the locker room, and assistant coach Salinger said to Rangnick worriedly: "Rangnick, this is not good, we can't attack." Why don't we arrange a free-kick tactic just like we did on the field? ”
"Do you think I don't want to?" Rangnick frowned, shook his head, and said, "But Ingolstadt is not the same as Stuttgart II!" ”
The latter is a team with a large number of young people, while Ingolstadt's backline is an old fritter with an average age of twenty-eight or nine!
Looking at the height again, a person is tall and big, almost all of them are more than 1.88 meters, and there are two more than 1.9 meters! The free-kick tactic, touching them, will definitely not work! Salihovic is not Beckham!
Because of this, before the start of the game, Rangnick arranged two double arrows of Marić and Kopado, and three offensive tactics of Kohler, Seitz and Salihovic who were ready to plug in support!
He wants to use Copado and other skilled generals to play the big guys of the other side!
It's a pity that there was no support in the midfield, and Marić and Copado went deep into the enemy camp, and they were directly cut off, and they couldn't attack at all.
"Why don't we put Beta on?" Sullinger suggested, too, saw the problem - the Hoffenheim backline with and without beta is really two realms!
Seeing Rangnick's brows furrowed, knowing that he was struggling with Beta's double-edged sword, Sullinger suggested: "Replace Beta, and let him play in the midfield position as you did in your training match!" He can help the team defend, and, if he gets a steal, there are teammates behind him who can stop the opposition's attack! ”
"But this tactic is not yet mature...... "Rangnick hesitated.
He had Beta play in midfield for a few minutes in a training match, but that was only once, and could Beta, who had no experience at all, play in a midfield position?
'We don't want him to be the dribble transition point between the backline and the midfield, just let him defend like he used to, just him as the first line of defence at the back. Sullinger was also inspired, he continued.
"Maybe it really can!" Rangnick touched his chin, he thought more deeply than Salinger, "If Beta is on, the midfield may be able to move......"
Now, there is no better way but to be a dead horse and a live horse doctor!
……
A few minutes into the second half, there was a chance for a dead ball, and the fourth official on the sidelines held up a sign.
The commentator at the scene glanced at it and exclaimed, "Beta! Hoffenheim had just started the second half to bring in Beta! ”
His voice was tinged with surprise and excitement. In his opinion, it is not necessarily a bad thing for Beta to come up.
So, in the boos of the audience, he laughed gloatingly: "Mr. Hoffenheim's head coach found out that his tactics were wrong, but it doesn't matter, you sent Beta, it's a mistake on top of a mistake!" Of course, it's a good thing for us, because in this way, our Mr. Price's tactical arrangements will not be wasted! ”
Price frowned, his attention was more focused than the commentary on the scene, and he noticed that Rangnick was actually trading Setz for Beta!
The left winger is replaced by a central defender, obviously this is not a counter-substitution!
It is even more unlikely that Rangnick completely gave up the offense and played the defensive card steadily! You know, Hoffenheim are still one goal behind, and putting the bus on defense means they have to lose those three points!
"Is there a backhand?" Price took a deep look at the head coach across from him.
Anyway, seeing that this substitution was over and Beta came on the field, Price walked to the sidelines and gestured to his players.
"Look! I'll just say that Mr. Price has already arranged it! The commentary at the scene captured the scene, and he smirked.
Unbeknownst to Beta, he was excitedly trotting down the pitch to his midfield. Salihovich clapped his hands with him, lowered his voice and smiled: "The defense is up to you!" ”
At half-time, Rangnick had already made arrangements. Salihovic and others have already sharpened their knives and Hoho has already moved forward!
"Leave it to me!" Beta nodded coldly, if he had a pair of sunglasses, he would have been so handsome that he would have exploded.
Soon, the chance to test the defensive effectiveness of Beta after coming on the field came!
Wolfas dribbled the ball and struck with a fierce attack, Beta ignored Romer, who ran past from the other side, and he went straight to Wolfas.
"Hmph, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Woolfarth raised an eyebrow, and he squirted trash talk.
Before the game, Price and Woolfars emphasized many times that they should value Beta as a young defensive player. However, Beta didn't appear at all in the first half, and Wolfass felt that Beta had escaped from the battle! Now seeing Beta coming up, Woolfarth is even more disdainful, and he is not convinced that Price described Beta's defensive ability as so strong!
Beta hears the other party's trash talk, but he responds as usual with a cold face from the past. Volfath was a bit explosive, and he was playing tricks with his feet, trying to get past Beta.
But how is this possible? He's not Khedira!
Beta was firmly stuck in position, so Woolfarth couldn't break through with his left and right buckles.
"Damn it!" Walfath had no choice but to pass the ball to Romer.
"Smack!" Beta's eyes were quick, and his long legs poked hard to intercept Woolfarth's pass.
