93 to play
On August 29, 2009, he went to Schalke Stadium.
Bundesliga fourth round.
It was Schalke facing Freiburg on their home turf.
Freiburg FC was founded in 1904, but spent most of its time in the lower leagues. There are only a handful of times in the Bundesliga in 100 years of history. Freiburg FC was in the Bundesliga a few years ago, and last season they won the Bundesliga title and came to the Bundesliga.
It is a relatively poor team in the Bundesliga at present.
In Magath's plan, this is the score that should be earned. And because Schalke has had a good season this season, a champion coach like Magath is also a little flustered.
There is some carelessness in the face of the promoted Mamagat. There is no previous caution, and there is no previous concentration. The player also followed Magath to underestimate Freiburg. But soon Freiburg told Schalke not to underestimate any Bundesliga team, even if he was promoted.
Just seven minutes into the first half, Schalke was counter-attacked by Freiburg.
Conceded a goal.
The goal was scored by the South Korean player from Freiburg, who switched from striker to full-back.
Cheduri, the fame is average. In the past few years, he has been mixed in European football, although he does not have the strength to enter the giants, and he does not have the strength to be the main force among the strong European teams. But among the small and medium-sized clubs in Europe, there is still no problem in playing the main team.
Of course, it can't be compared to his father.
Cha Duri's father is Cha Beom-geun, the No. 1 goalscorer in the history of Korean football. Cheduri's ability to come to Germany to play football was inseparable from his father's connections in German football.
I didn't expect Che Duri to be mixed up for so many years, and now he has become a full-back. Everyone thought that Cheduri was like this, but he didn't expect to score a goal in this game, and he also scored a goal for Schalke.
Jin Ming shook his head off the field.
Cheduri is really fast. Westerman was shaken off on the left by Cheduri with speed, then went around Westerman and cut straight into the box to score the goal.
German defenders?
Like Westerman is an all-round player at the back. Starting at centre-back to full-back, Westerman can play. In this game, Magath was placed in the position of left back, and the frontal defensive ability is indeed strong.
It's a pity that speed is his weakness.
A lot of German defenders have this problem. Including Metzeld and Mertesacker, these people are very strong in frontal defense. But there are too many problems in terms of turning, chasing speed, etc.
Westermann faced Freiburg on the counter-attack, and there was nothing he could do against the fast Cheduri.
"It's hard to play right now."
Li Bo immediately sighed when he saw Che Duri score.
Schalke is not very capable of attacking the fortifications. In the first few games, Schalke's goals were all based on counter-attacks. If it comes head-to-head, Schalke isn't very good. Schalke don't have any attacking players on either flank.
Without a wide attack, you can't let the opponent's defense spread out. The opponent can concentrate the defensive line in the middle, and you can't tear down their central defense at all.
"I should be needed at this time."
Schalke is behind, and Magath can only attack. It's a pity that Schalke's attack is really not very good. Freiburg now had a one-goal lead and immediately pulled it back, leaving Schalke with no space to attack.
Seeing that Schalke's attack was always frustrated, Holterby sat next to Jin Ming and whispered.
"Lewis, why do you want to fight?"
"I'm sure the coach will pick me."
Jin Ming and Holterby both chatted in English, and many of the bench players and coaching staff sitting next to them couldn't understand each other. Jin Ming smiled and did not speak. However, half of Holtby's words, Jin Ming agreed.
The current Schalke frontcourt is Rakitic at the heart of the pitch.
This is definitely a genius, a real genius. But he's good, but he also has a lot of problems. Rakitic is a genius, but his style of play is mechanical, or very textbook-like.
This is not a criticism of Rakitic.
Rakitic is a real talent. His dribble isn't flashy, but he definitely doesn't concede lightly. In the same way, his passing will definitely not be as unpredictable as Xiao Luo, but he will not make mistakes lightly.
In other words, Rakitic's possession, passing, and passing looked ordinary. You can't miss a pass, but you don't have to expect some unexpectedly good passes. Rakitic still has a lot of potential, but it hasn't been developed yet. It's more about playing like a textbook. This is the current Rakitic.
Such characteristics make Rakitic very good on the counter-attack.
He was able to hold the ball and then pass it to his team-mates on the counter-attack. But in the face of a dense defence, Rakitic didn't have much to do. Because his passing and passing are all decent.
There's not even a wonderful breakout.
It's very important to have a good break-through ability when breaking through dense defenses. In this respect, Holt is better than Rakitic.
Everyone sees Schalke's problem.
Needless to say, Magath also found out. Magath is a very good coach and he is not bad at adjusting.
For Schalke's question, Magath understands it better than anyone. Although Freiburg is defensive, Freiburg is a promoted horse in the Bundesliga after all, and there are still many holes in the defense.
It's a pity that Schalke himself couldn't find this loophole.
Magath looked at his bench. Seeing Magat's gaze, Holby immediately became energetic and looked straight at Magat. In this regard, Jin Ming is really not as good as European players like Holtby.
Jin Ming's method is to train hard and impress Magath with his own training.
But Holt is completely different than them. Holtby has been competing with Rakitic in the team and has not hidden his ambitions for the main team. In the face of a ruthless person like Magat, Holtby also likes to recommend himself.
But Magat's gaze soon overshadowed Holterby.
Holtby is a genius, but he's still too young to be in a very stable state. Rakitic rarely has those moments, but Rakitic is very steady. So Magath gave up on Holtby.
But he stopped at Jin Ming's side next to Holtby.
Jin Ming?
Magath didn't know how to decide.
Jin Ming is a player, Magath honestly doesn't like it. Because Jin Ming is a player shoehorned into himself by Schalke's top management. However, Jin Ming is a player with great characteristics, and what satisfies Magath the most is Jin Ming's attitude.
I hung Jin Ming for a month, but Jin Ming was still meticulous and serious in training.
Such a player Magath still prefers it.
Of course, the most important thing is that Jin Ming is a player with very obvious characteristics, that is, he is very fast. Magath looked back at the sidelines and at Cheduri. I looked at Jin Ming again.
"Brand, let Jin Ming warm up."
"You're going to send him on?"
"Yes. The team needs to do something on the wings. ”
"Okay."
Brand Hollerbach nodded.
Hollerbach turned around and came to the bench, and several people on the bench were looking at Hollerbach. Now that the game is not going well, Hollerbach must have come over to talk about substitutions.
Schalke's bench is not luxurious, but there are also strong players.
Asamoah, Altentop, Kobyashvili, Holteby and others. Several of them were looking at Hollerbach. Although Hollebach saw the desire in their eyes, he completely ignored it and said directly: "Kim, go warm up." Give you five minutes. ”
"Me?"
Jin Ming was stunned.
In Jin Ming's view, at this time, it is either a replacement for Holtby, or it should be a replacement for Altentop.
"What, don't want to warm up?"
Hollerbach's temper is indeed much better, but no matter how he played, he was a famous villain in the Bundesliga. No matter how much your temper changes, you won't become a bodhisattva all at once.
Seeing Jin Ming grinding, Hollebach immediately raised his voice.
"No, it's not."
Jin Ming immediately jumped out of the bench and then began to warm up.
Nervous?
It's not the first time Kim has played, having played more than 60 games when he was in South Korea. Although the Korean league and the Bundesliga are not at all the same level, they are both professional leagues.
Jin Ming will not be nervous.
It's just that Jin Ming is very excited. Because Hollebach warmed himself up at this time, the meaning was already obvious. I'm going to play soon.
Since re-entering football, Jin Ming has been coming to Europe to play.
Now it looks like it's finally going to happen.
"What we saw. Jin Ming is warming up, and it looks like Coach Magath is going to replace Jin Ming on the field. Jin Ming is about to play in the Bundesliga. Let's look forward to Jin Ming's appearance, and look forward to Jin Ming's watch. ”
