Chapter 118: Crossing the Midline? It's not scientific! (Ask for recommendation votes)
The Eversburg players were a little confused, they were still attacking just now, why are the Hoffenheim players already in their penalty area now?
Why did Hoffenheim's counterattack come so quickly?
In fact, this does have a lot to do with the tacit understanding of Hoffenheim players, but the biggest reason comes from themselves!
Gullit's tactical arrangement is to fight against Hoffenheim!
This means that they will invest a lot of troops when they attack!
And Beta quickly got rid of the pressing after breaking the ball, which made the players in front of them stupid and forgot to defend for a while. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Of course, talking too much now doesn't work!
Hoffenheim is already on the move!
Salihovic didn't wait for them to organise an attack, and sent the ball to the feet of Marić, who had already cut into the box, with a scalpel-like pass.
Most of the Eversborough backline was still rushing towards Salihovic, with only one of them, Frolian Webber, who was behind in a panic, turning and blocking between Marić and the goal.
Marić was not greedy, he was calm, gently pushed the ball to the left, and on the empty left, Copador appeared there like a phantom!
"Danger!" The commentary at the scene exclaimed.
But before his voice fell, Copado fired a powerful shot and the ball drilled into the bottom left corner of the goal! Eversburg's goalkeeper Kevin could only make one save and couldn't react at all!
There was a dead silence in the audience.
How can it be? It is estimated that the spectators at the scene are full of question marks, and it is hard for them to believe that it is still their team that "has the advantage", why did it suddenly become Hoffenheim's goal?
The on-site commentator struggled for a moment and defended the home team: "This ball, it can only be said that Hoffenheim sneaked up on us, damn Hoffenheim!" ”
Now, it seems that the fans have found an outlet for their emotions.
"Dirty, vile Hoffenheim!"
"Rats that can only sneak attack!"
"Do you dare to face us upright?"
Angry boos came one after another, it seems, they still feel that their team is better than Hoffenheim?
Accustomed to the madness of the opponent's fans, Beta calmly looked at the excited fans in the stands, shook his head, and turned his head to retreat in the direction of his penalty area.
"Beta, come here!" Rangnick, who didn't know when he got up and walked to the sidelines, blew a whistle and called Beta over, "What are you doing in the back?" ”
Beta opened his mouth and said with some puzzlement: "Boss, Eversburg's offensive firepower is very strong, they like to take advantage of our weak points on the side to attack, I want to go back to help defend." ”
Both of Eversburg's attacks were launched from the flanks and were not a small threat, and Beta saw the intentions of the opposing side.
"Your position is a midfielder, not a defender!" Rangnick didn't judge Beta's idea, but he didn't deny it, but he corrected harshly, "The team needs you to play in midfield, not to put out fires everywhere in the box!" ”
Seeing Beta's bewildered look, Rangnick's tone relaxed a little, he patted Beta on the shoulder and said, "Trust your teammates!" ”
Bunnick didn't explain, and after putting Beta back, he called Jankel over and told him and Bindernagel to pay attention to the wide defense, then turned around and sat back on the bench.
His adjustment couldn't be easier!
With Rangnick's order, Beta nervously returned to the midfield.
Immediately, the unwilling Eversburg launched several ferocious attacks. However, the midfield strangulation that Rangnick has been training in lately is gradually showing its majesty.
Eversburg's attacks were either directly cut off by midfielders such as Beta and Tebel and strangled in the midfield, or the players passed the ball out of the sideline under the high-intensity midfield pressing, causing mistakes.
The only time Gorno broke through from the side with the ball himself, but he fought alone, even if he rushed into the penalty area, he couldn't find a chance to shoot from his feet in the siege!
"What's going on?" Gullit scratched his ears and cheeks in a hurry, "How did Hoffenheim's backline become so solid?" Is it because of the young man who moved from the Stuttgart youth team? Could it be that Rangnick has unearthed another demon in the backline? ”
Just when he was puzzled, the Eversburg players who had been unable to attack for a long time were a little shaken in their hearts. After Hoffenheim took control of the ball, they couldn't help but start dropping back.
Seems to want to catch your breath?
With that, Hoffenheim's chance is here again!
Relying on layers of advancement, Hoffenheim used the pass in front and midfield to gradually suppress the Eversburg players in the penalty area.
The fans at the scene were overwhelmed by Hoffenheim's slow-knife grinding style of play, they wanted to boo Hoffenheim, but they were worried that their team would suddenly have some fatal omission!
Suddenly, Salihovic suddenly got up from outside the box.
"So far?" The commentary at the scene was as confusing as the audience.
It's a few meters away from the restricted area! Isn't that a bit too far-fetched?
But at this time, a figure jumped high in the forbidden area, attracting everyone's attention.
When Gurlitt saw it, his eyes almost popped out: "When did he run in?" ”
"Quick, Beta!" By the time Gurlitt shouted, it was too late!
With few men on the mark, Beta jumped up with little hindrance as he pressed ahead of Eversburg defender Lamine Cisse for a header.
Kevin, the goalkeeper who was blowing up his hair, hurriedly pounced in the direction he judged.
Beta's header was very fast, no less than a penalty. If he waits to see clearly, it will be too late to save! Kevin can only pray for his luck!
Yes, he had good luck and pounced in the right direction.
But Kevin's pupils widened, and in his frightened eyes, Beta's header did not go straight to the goal, but the goal went further, and immediately, a figure in a blue and white jersey appeared there!
Kevin, who had already fallen to the ground, was desperate!
Kevin couldn't see it, and everyone in the audience saw it, and Marić grabbed Beta's almost nanny-style header, and he gently lifted his foot to pocket the ball.
The ball arced through the ground, bypassing Kevin on the ground and into the back of the net.
"Why did he go up all of a sudden?" The question of staying in Gullit was more uncomfortable than this goal.
The explanation at the scene was also incomprehensible, and he shouted angrily: "How come? How can it be? ”
"Isn't Beta, a Chinese, only crossing the halfway line when a free kick or corner kick is taken?"
"How can he leave his defensive position while the game is still deadlocked?"
"That's unreasonable!"
Oh, yes! In everyone's mind, Beta is like this! Even before Beta reached the top of the scorer charts, he was ridiculed by the media as "a football player who only plays his own half".
But now, Beta actually slapped everyone in the face!
It also made Eversburg, whose ideology was still before the winter break, suffer a big loss!
