Chapter 116: Overnight
Hot-blooded and calm, strict and lively.
This contradictory and contrasting situation is the most intuitive feeling of everyone in the first 20 minutes of the game.
The Dortmund team on the field surprised everyone, and as soon as they got on the field, they did not use a lot of pressure to show their attacking power to win Europe.
Patience, a trait that goes against the passion of the home team, is carried in the chest by Dortmund's talented guys, and the table is on the field.
Sosa, Heinrich, Müller, Riddle, Zolke, Ricken. Six guys, like six yellow B-52 bombers, or in formation, or in small teams, or alone.
But no matter which choice they choose, they don't mean to underestimate their opponents!
Calm, strict, and one-eyed, on top of these prerequisites, it is positive and lively, and the blood is boiling.
This kind of maturity beyond age makes them feel like outsiders, silent in the mountains and tsunamis.
Their opponents, the old guys of Kaiserslautern, are exactly like them!
The enthusiasm that stood up to create the history of zào, the calmness of being willing to be a shield, the strict sù who shouldered the heavy trust, and the liveliness of the second spring were also undoubtedly revealed in them.
Such two teams, the collision between them, except for the most element of the competition itself, there is no other interference!
It's just that the right way in the tactical choice has allowed Kaiserslautern, who was originally at a disadvantage, to keep a firm grasp of the balance of the game. Even when the field was passive, the possession rate was far behind the opponent, and the opponent did not let the opponent show his talent in front of his own penalty area. The opponent's only three shots on target were all interfered with, and the difficulty was reduced to the controllable range of Lineker.
Heathfield knows the reasons best.
Fooled!
At home against the magical promotion horse at the top of the list, what he was most worried about was that his disciples were not calm enough on the field. The handling of the ball is too impatient.
In his opinion, this team, which relied on young people, likes to use chaotic battles to reduce the tactical content of the game. If you keep the same rhythm as them and play fast, you will hit the opponent's hand!
The team under his command has been tried and tested. Not afraid of challenges. Compared with opponents, the biggest advantage is not actually strength, but experience.
In this case, when preparing for the game, he repeatedly stressed to his disciples to be calm, patient, and ignore the provocations of his opponents. To deepen their impression, he also singled out Leverkusen and Ze Roberto. When the reverse side of the plate is typical.
As a result, the opponent sent a bunch of old men
After watching the dugout for more than ten minutes, Heathfield stood up, walked to the sideline, and waved his big hand forward
Why not get up right away and quickly change the pace of the attack?
Rehhagel knew the answer.
Trust!
This trust is the trust that the players have in the manager.
Every team that can win consecutive championships, this trust should be unconditional.
Today's game. Heathfield's tactical choice clearly went awry. And that's not just him, Rehhagel. Other discerning industry insiders, and even some of the players on the field, can be aware of it.
If you know your mistake, why don't you correct it right away?
The guy who is also the head coach knows it very well.
It's not that I don't want to, but I can't!
The stadium is like a battlefield, and the players are like soldiers. The orders of the head coach are no different from those of the battlefield commander.
For soldiers, it is their duty to obey orders, even if it is a pit, do not hesitate to jump in!
There is no other reason.
The battlefield is in front of you, not a tactical conference room to discuss success or failure. They are European champions. For a powerful team, the ban is the minimum requirement.
The players won't have any other options, what about the manager?
Again, there is no other choice!
No one doesn't make mistakes, even if he is a champion and a soft coach, there will be times when he makes a faint move. In today's game, Heathfield was actually just calculated by the opponent's unexpected moves, and it was not a mistake.
In this case, it is not appropriate to overturn all pre-competition preparations as soon as you come up and encourage the disciples to speed up the pace with a more passionate speech.
First, it is easy to give the players the impression of backtracking and indecision. The second is that the choice made anew carries a huge risk!
There is no such thing as victory or defeat. Even if it seems like the right choice at the moment, there is still no guarantee of 100% victory. If the abrupt change of tactics on the pitch doesn't work, the manager's actions will leave an indelible impression on all the players.
Lack of self-confidence!!
The cost is much greater than the outcome of a game. Therefore, even if you know that you have fallen into a trap, you will wait quietly and quietly. Until everyone is confirmed to show a firm attitude of execution, then wave a big hand, press, and attack!
"React faster than the last opponent."
Lu Wei did not participate in the final mobilization before the game, and commented loudly at this time, obviously intended to remind.
"No problem." Rehhagel nodded slightly, staring intently.
"What used to be a half-time speech, now it's early?" Lu Wei frowned slightly, and quickly came back to his senses.
"Yes, the drama is too old, and the audience will lose interest." Rehhagel smiled at the corners of his mouth, leaned slightly, and rested his chin in his hands.
Be at ease like an interested observer.
"Oh, it looks like the opponent is going to continue to be surprised." Lu Wei collected his thoughts, leaned back, and gave a smile to the camera that swept over.
The two old guys from National Radio 2 suddenly became excited.
"Did you notice, in the few games we broadcast on them, as long as We are not playing, the position that appears is next to Rehhagel, in the dugout!"
"Yes, and the two often communicate during the game!"
"What does that mean?"
"I don't know, but one thing is for sure. His role in this team, like Mo, is much more than just a table on the field! ”
"Haha, do you remember that story? The story of the locker room? ”
"yes, when I think about it now, it still feels incredible. At that time, Rehhagel was more like a fragile victim, where was he as high-spirited as he is now! ”
"It seems that there are so many stories behind this team!"
"Well, I'm done with the chat, come back and watch the game."
"After the first 20 minutes of probing, Dortmund quickly increased their tempo, passing and receiving the ball forward in a more direct way, and no longer chasing too much success!"
"As the whole team suddenly picked up speed, it started to get exciting!"
"Yes, taking risks is the best catalyst for personal empowerment!"
"However, Kaiserslautern's response has not been flustered."
"Well, as if I had been prepared, I also increased the pace of defense!"
The strength of 100 points, in different states, may play 120, and may only be less than 80.
In the pre-game preparation for this game, Heathfield repeatedly emphasized that it was not the extraordinary performance of the test 120, nor the horse that was less than 80.
90 up!
With such a standard requirement, it is natural to pass and receive the ball safely, especially in the side of the half where there is not much pressure and within about five meters of the halfway line.
As a result, this tactical approach plays into the hands of the opponent!
The old guys of Kaiserslautern slowed down the tempo, even if they received the ball at their feet, and did not rush to clear the ball or throw a big foot to the front court to try their luck. However, the Dortmund team, who remained patient in the attack, pressed high and was fierce, and as long as the ball was passed to the near half, it would be snatched away by the yellow figure who quickly surrounded it in most cases.
The guy who conceded the ball didn't look anxious, quickly turned around and threw himself into the defense.
This seemingly unenterprising move makes the opponent more relaxed, patiently reversing his feet, passing, and looking for a vacancy.
In the search, the 100 points were not reached, and the 90 points were almost gone.
Where can I have time?
Even if the slightest gap is exposed, it will be quickly blocked by experienced old guys.
So, it took 20 minutes to confess.
Heathfield's definite tactical change was like rain in time, waking up the guys who were all physically and mentally engaged in training.
Need to speed up the pace, take an adventure, need 120!
The execution ability of the old powerhouse is really good, after receiving clear instructions, there is no longer too much lateral passing on the field, even if the guy in the front court is being watched, he will still hand over the ball with confidence.
To put it simply, it's about raising the individual requirements of the whole team in attack.
They are not blindly looking for vacancies, but use their personal abilities, which are originally higher than their opponents, to force their opponents and create opportunities in the air.
That sounds like a good idea.
It's a pity that from less than 90 to 120, it is not an overnight thing! (To be continued......)
