"The game is about to start. This article was written by...... The start, this is the most anticipated game of this round in the Bundesliga. Schalke FC is in turmoil at the moment as Rangnick has announced that he will be leaving Schalke after this game. Schalke, who had a good result, will definitely be affected by Rangnick's departure. Bayern, on the other hand, are in great form, beating Freiburg 7-0 in their last game. Heynckes' Bayern are excellent both offensively and defensively. ”
"But both sides have some sick numbers. Bayern's injury number is Robben, while Schalke's injury number is Farfan and Jurado. ”
"Shhh
"Judas! Judas! Judas! ”
"Get out of Gelsenkirchen! Get out of the way to Schalke! Get out of Schalke! ”
"You'll always be shit! Get out, Judas! ”
There's just so much to watch in this game.
Rangnick is leaving, Bayern are in full form, and there is a strong conversation, but none of these are as good as the topics that one person brings. That is the former Schalke captain Manuel Neuer, who left Schalke this summer and joined Bayern.
As soon as Neuer appeared on the pitch, the whole Schalke stadium was filled with huge boos.
There are all kinds of strange banners, as well as various satirical paintings made of Neuer's head, etc. Anyway, Schalke fans are just waiting for this day and booing Neuer well.
The sound of "Judas" filled the stadium.
Neuer.
Neuer is really a big traitor to Schalke fans. Because Neuer is a player trained by Schalke himself, he has become Schalke's main goalkeeper at a very young age. Then, a few years later, he became the captain of Schalke.
Neuer at that time was an idol for fans throughout Schalke.
Pity.
Unfortunately, in the end, Neuer and Schalke fell out. With one year left on his contract, Neuer rejected the club's request to renew his contract and was bent on going to Bayern Munich. In the end, Schalke had no choice but to let Neuer go.
Of course, Schalke also got enough transfer fees.
But Schalke fans can't forgive Neuer. Because Schalke and Bayern have a bad relationship. Therefore, Schalke fans have been waiting for this moment, waiting for Neuer to come to Schalke. Today they finally met, and they began to vent their frustrations.
Jin Ming looked at these crazy fans, as well as the expressionless Neuer and shook his head.
In fact, to be honest, Jin Ming really doesn't understand Neuer's choice, or doesn't understand the thoughts of these German players. Many German players are reluctant to go abroad. They are only willing to play within the Bundesliga.
Like Neuer.
Strong, really strong. Manuel Neuer is not the best goalkeeper in European football, but he is definitely one of the best. Although Neuer is a late learner, he is already considered a goalkeeper at the level of Buffon, Casillas, and Cech in European football.
Therefore, a goalkeeper of Neuer's level, as long as he wants to leave German football, there are many giants and strong teams who are willing to win Neuer. After Neuer refused to renew his contract with Schalke. There are a number of European football giants who have expressed interest in Neuer.
But Neuer: They had a very special idea.
Or rather, the idea of the German players is special. Probably because of Bayern's special status in German football, they all aspire to Bayern. Therefore, Neuer has to go to Bayern Munich for life or death.
You see, if he moves to any of the giants in European football and returns to the Schalke Stadium, he will definitely get applause from the Schalke fans. Neuer will also become Schalke's No. 1 goalkeeper in history. After all, he led Schalke to the first Bundesliga title in Schalke's history. For the first time, he reached the semi-finals of the Champions League and won the German Cup.
Schalke fans must also understand Neuer's choice, after all, Schalke is only a strong team in the Bundesliga, and there is a difference of 108,000 miles from the giants. With a goalkeeper like Manuel Neuer, it is understandable that he wants to play in a big club.
But his move to Bayern Munich is unforgivable to Schalke fans.
Why are there so many options, you have to choose Bayern, which has a bad relationship with Schalke and is also a league opponent.
If it's Jin Ming. Absolutely no such choice will be made. Jin Ming now plays for Schalke and is another team that will never choose to play in the Bundesliga. With so many teams in European football, why keep meeting in one league. Everyone made a good impression of each other. Not better.
Of course, Jin Ming is not Neuer, and it is impossible to understand Neuer's own thoughts.
Maybe Neuer they have their own ideas.
"Doodoo-"
"The race is on. Schalke kicks off first. ”
At the beginning of the game, Jin Ming immediately put away those messy thoughts and focused on the game.
Face to face Ram.
Jin Ming came to the right and met Lahm at left-back. In these rounds, Jin Ming's performance on the right side is okay, and there is a feeling that the right side is just like this. But after running into Ram today. Jin Ming realized that he was still far from the right side.
Ram is smart.
Or Bayern Munich has studied Jin Ming's performance on the right side well. After all, the current Jin Ming is no longer the player who played Inter last season and was completely ignored by Inter. Now Jin Ming is the most important and outstanding player in Schalke's attack. Studying the golden inscription is a must for every Schalke opponent before the game.
Heynckes really focused on Jin Ming. Then see Jin Ming's shortcomings on the right side clearly. Jin Ming has merit. But there are also many disadvantages.
The biggest thing is the ability to break through on the right side and the ability to cross with the right foot, which are a major shortcoming of Jin Ming's current situation. Ram is exactly about that.
Ram's choice is simple.
Jin Ming wants to cross from the right. Especially with a right-footed cross, he doesn't interfere too much. Instead, it's just a matter of interference. Because Jin Ming's breakthrough on the right side is not as good as that on the left side, it is difficult to really form a breakthrough on the right side in the face of Ram's defense.
And Ram's focus on defending is Jin Ming's in-cut.
If you want to cut inside, where is it so simple. Ram looked at Jin Ming's internal cut very strictly, and he saw it very accurately. In addition, Gustavo in the middle kept an eye on Jin Ming, which made Jin Ming very uncomfortable on the right side.
"Jin Ming. Hasten. Jin Ming wanted to break through Lahm, and Ram tackled...... Lahm tackles the ball out of bounds. ”
"Jin Ming, Neiche wants to shoot...... Gustavo stood in place! ”
Jin Ming was restrained by Lahm and Gustavo on the right flank, and there was no previous performance at all. On the other side, Draxler, although very talented. But after all, young. It was badly defended by Raphinha and Boateng.
The two wings could not be opened, which also put Schalke under a lot of pressure in the middle.
And Bayern is different.
Bayern's front court is good. Although Arjen Robben was injured again and did not play, one Ribery was enough for Schalke to have a headache. With 26 minutes played, Franck Ribery broke past Atsushi Uchida on the left and sent a cross for Gomez his ninth Bundesliga goal of the season.
And now it's the sixth round of the Bundesliga.
It can be seen that Gomez is now dominating the Bundesliga.
Very depressed.
Jin Ming would even love to go back to the left. Go back to the left and fight with the familiar Raphinha. Raphinha is not weak. But compared to Ram, it's much easier to deal with.
"Raul, Schweinsteiger defends Raul. Raul leaned on Schweinsteiger, and Jin Ming came back to ask for the ball. ”
This is the characteristic of Jin Ming.
Jin Ming is not a player who stands in front and waits for the ball, Jin Ming likes hard-working players. He is also very diligent. This time Raul got the ball. Jin Ming retreated to catch the ball.
"Jin Ming, Jin Ming went to the right road. Kim Ming didn't play well in this game, and Lahm defended well. Kim Ming has not had a single successful cross and shot on goal so far. ”
Yes, Jin Ming's performance in this game was not very good.
But Jin Ming still has to try.
If you just came to Schalke, Jin Ming's role was not as good as Farfan's. Therefore, the pressure is not on Jin Ming's side, so now it is different. Now Jin Ming has a very high position in Schalke's attack, and if Schalke's attack can't be opened, then Jin Ming will also be under a lot of pressure.
Therefore, Jin Ming has to take more responsibility.
Now the two wings can't be opened. When everyone criticized after the game, they would criticize Jin Ming, not the young Draxler.
Look at Ram who is concentrating. Jin Ming is really serious. Rahm is really strong, and he tried to break through Rahm several times in this game without success. Jin Ming's mind is also constantly thinking about how to break through Ram.
Jin Ming took a step forward, and Ram took a step back.
Ram is telling Jin Ming that Ram will not post it. And once Jin Ming wants to break through, Rahm will quickly step forward to defend. Of course, if Jin Ming wants a right-footed cross. Lahm will only interfere a little, but will not defend completely. Because Jin Ming's right-footed cross can only be said to be okay.
Therefore, Ram is very careful about the distance between him and Jin Ming. It's too far. is too laissez-faire for Jin Ming, let Jin Ming cross at will. Although Jin Ming's right-footed cross is not as good as his left-footed. But if there is no interference, let Jin Ming's cross easily, then the quality will be very high. In fact, it is the same with any player, if there is no one to defend, then there are very few mistakes in passing. After all, they are all professional players and have been trained for more than ten years. So Ram can't be too far away from Jin Ming.
And the distance is too far, and it is not easy for Lahm to defend Kim Ming inside.
But not too close.
Too close is easy for Jin Ming to break through with speed. Lahm understands Jin Ming's explosiveness and speed very well, and there is no player in the entire Bundesliga who can compare with Jin Ming in explosiveness and speed.
This is very good from Ram, not far and not close, which also makes Jin Ming very embarrassed. Breaking through Lahm on the right is not Jin Ming's forte. But if you want to cross with your right foot, this distance Lahm can quickly step forward and interfere with himself.
Jin Ming's right-footed cross is not very good in the first place, and if Lahm interferes, it will affect the quality even more.
What to do?
Jin Ming suddenly made a move to step forward and break through, and Ram quickly took a step back. When he saw that it was a feint, Ram didn't react, and quickly returned to his original position and continued to defend Jin Ming.
However, just as Rahm quickly returned to his original position, Jin Ming suddenly crossed with the outside of his left foot.
Very suddenly.
The distance between Rahm and Jin Ming is to interfere with Jin Ming's right-footed cross. But he never thought that Jin Ming would suddenly make a cross from the outside of his left foot.
Rahm didn't expect it, and neither did the other players.
The more professional a player is, the more he has a habit of thinking. They all thought that Jin Ming would cross with his right foot, and even if he crossed with his left foot, he would dunk the ball and cross with his left foot. No one expected Jin Ming to choose the outside instep cross of his left foot.
"Jin Ming, Jin Ming, this is a cross with his left foot...... Who's this. Huntelaar, Huntelaar suddenly inserted, Huntelaar front point...... Shake your head and hit the goal! ”
Jin Ming's left-footed cross was sudden.
Boateng and Bad Stuber were both unexpected. Huntelaar, who has been a teammate with Jin Ming for a long time, reacted and had enough tacit understanding. In the moment of Jin Ming's cross, it passed between Boateng and Bad Stuber and came to the front point.
Before they could react, it was just a head-to-head attack.
It's too close.
Neuer was also completely unresponsive.
“al!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
"Huntelaar, Huntelaar. Huntelaar equalised for Schalke for his sixth goal of the season. ”
After Huntelaar scored, he ran directly to Jin Ming to hug Jin Ming.
"It's beautiful, Kim."
Jin Ming was in a good mood.
And Jin Ming suddenly understood a sentence. Football is actually very simple, don't think about it too complicated. No matter how a cross is not a cross, as long as you can get the ball into the box, as long as you can create a threat, you just have no problem passing the ball with your butt.
Why bother with how you pass the ball.
Just like this time.
It doesn't have a right-footed cross, and it doesn't need a traditional left-footed cross. As long as I can create a threat, I'm going to cross with the outside of my left foot, what can you do? (To be continued)
