For a while, many guys who opposed Alihan even began to look forward to the national football team in the Indian team "stumbling forward", but no matter how big the chance of the football game, the strength is always the first, no matter how easy the national football team is to drop the chain, it will not lose to the Indian team whose strength is two grades worse than themselves (it is indeed more dangerous if it is one grade worse), and finally the national football team swept the Indian team with a score of 5:1 in the home game on February 22, giving a good start to the qualifiers for the 2007 Asian Cup. Of course, there are also a few very thick-skinned media who make a big fuss about the goal conceded, but this does not put much pressure on Alihan, who is now very stable

On the contrary, Dresden's club match against Braunschweig on the evening of 17 February Berlin time was more difficult. Braunschweig is not a strong team in the Bundesliga this season, but because of the excellent performance in the previous two games, Dresden has attracted the attention of other Bundesliga teams, and the defensive strategy of the Munich 1860 team in the last game and the quick counter-attacking offensive strategy that worked in the first game also gave the Braunschweigs a lot of inspiration, and the key is that this game is Brunswick's home stadium, and the referee's decision is more favorable to them

As a result, in Braunschweig's Muscle Forest, Dresden's incisive attack in the first two games was greatly hampered, and the referee's obvious home whistle made Dresden's players nervous about making moves on the field to the fullest.

The good luck of the first two games seemed to be missing all of a sudden, with the home side having just three shots on goal in the first half, one of which on target, managed to get on the scoresheet, while Dresden had as many as seven shots on goal without a single hit. Even Gao Jun, who has always been accurate in shooting, failed to score with two shots in the first half

"In the second half, we have to step up our running off the ball, speed up our passes, and only pass the ball before they have time to foul it, so as to minimise the way the opponent's rough play and the referee's deflection to our attack." This is the solution that Gao Jun thought of, remembering that the Japanese team in the Asian Cup in Qatar used a fast and smooth pass to overcome the impact of the black whistle to defeat the hosts, and the head coach Stano also agreed. In the situation where the opponent frequently fouls and the referee always turns one eye open and closes one eye, the physical quality of the players on their own side cannot be improved immediately, and the only way is to change the tactics on the field.

However, this strategy is easy to say, but it is not easy to do, the faster the pass and the shorter the time to handle the ball, the more technically difficult it will be, and the higher the error rate. Among the four-man group in the front court of the Dresden team, except for Gao Jun, who has excellent one-kick ball ability and the habit of never sticking to the ball, the other three prefer to hold the ball at their feet. Especially with the excellent dribbling of Conca and Artemisia Junmin, this habit cannot be changed overnight.

Although there is an excellent tacit understanding between the three from the Oriental team, and Xu's "transfer pass" is also a rare overall style of play in Chinese football, it is still not easy to play a fast and smooth continuous pass. At the end of the day, "pass-and-pass" is only the initial stage of the press-and-possession style of play, which starts with "catching", that is, taking the ball, so that it is inevitable to stop for a while. Even had to get rid of the opponent's close entanglement before he could pass the ball out, and the speed was naturally difficult to get up. If you want to achieve a continuous pass, the receiver must first run out of the vacant position and avoid no one's personal interference, in order to ensure that the difficult technical action of non-stop direct pass can have a high enough success rate. The trio can only play occasionally when they are in the Eastern team, and it is a little reluctant to use it as a reliable regular offensive means for the time being

After seeing the team's poor performance, Gretz, who was afraid of being recognized and asked a friend to buy a ticket and disguise himself as a fan of the home team, was depressed in the stands, "Damn. Secretly came to watch the game away in advance, but played like this, I knew it was better not to come"

"I can't blame them all, today's referee is very gloomy, it doesn't seem to be a big controversy, but when the body touches, it is one-sided to the other side, this kind of game is the most difficult to play, especially our players are generally younger, and it will be greatly affected psychologically", at this time, a man in sunglasses who was also wearing the home team's jersey suddenly said.

Although the man in sunglasses disguised his appearance to avoid recognition by acquaintances, Gretz's ears guessed that it was an important member of another Dresden fan group who "boycotted Gao Jun" like him, and immediately exclaimed, "Rudel? You're here too? ”

"Shhhh Don't be so loud, it's the home stand! The man in sunglasses who was suspected of being "Rudel" hurriedly reached out and covered Gretz's mouth and reminded in a low voice.

"Look at this shape on the field, what should I do?" , Gretz asked with a worried expression.

Rudel used to be a professional player, and his professional ability is much stronger than Gretz, and he shook his head after hearing this, "The situation is not good, although we still have the upper hand in the situation, but this game is very evil!" Those of us who have been professional footballers know that when you have a situation where you miss a series of chances and the opponent scores with a single shot, the game is very difficult to play. In the words of those media, it is the so-called 'waste of opportunities to be punished', and I personally think that it may be because luck is continuous, and it is difficult to make big changes in a game, so not going well at the beginning often means that the whole game is not going well, and this kind of game is naturally very difficult to play."

Seeing Gretz honestly listening to his explanation, Rudell couldn't help but talk about it, and analyzed the game, "Have you noticed? In the second half, our passing speed was significantly faster, I think this is a strategy of the coach to crack the opponent's physical practice, but this kind of attacking routine requires a lot of individual skill and tactical awareness of the players, and it is definitely not something that can be done in the time of one game."

"So we're going to lose?" Although he is easily dominated by extreme emotions, he does have a deep affection for the team in Dresden, and it is really painful for him to watch the team lose.

But Rudel shook his hand and said, "It's not necessarily, if a player can step up in such a difficult time, there is not necessarily no hope for a comeback." Tactics are important, but what makes a star a star is that they can do it on their own."

However, the game continued to go against Dresden, with Braunschweig being awarded another controversial penalty in the 61st minute, and the moment the referee pointed to 12 yards, Gretz was almost completely desperate. However, "the vicissitudes of the sea show the true character of heroes", and Dresden's young goalkeeper Manuel Neuer actually saved the penalty!

Gretz and Ruddleden yelled excitedly, but because of this, their "undercover" identities were exposed, and they were also glared at by the home team fans all around. But before those Braunschweig fans had time to scold, the expressions on their faces froze

"Manuel Neuer threw the ball in and attacked, our counter-attacking chance! It's so fast! Langen (Because he is very fast and not very good defensively, this guy will mostly go to the front of the field and wait for the opportunity to counterattack when the opponent takes a set-piece. High-speed dribbling! These Brunswick second-class cripples simply can't catch up! Beautiful, he gave the ball to Gao and continued to move on himself, the ball was back at his feet, he passed to Gao again, and the two of them crossed the entire court! It's already a single knife! Well done, overtook that stupid goalkeeper and took the ball straight into the goal! Gretz's excited shouting angered the home fans around them, who were already in a state of fire because of the conceded goal, and if it wasn't for the timely response of the security personnel, the two sides would have been fighting

Although the security personnel were afraid of the murderous reputation of the Dresden fans, they did not embarrass the two people and dared to scold the hundreds of nearby home team teams "undercover", but they still drove the two time bombs out of the stadium as soon as possible. Afterwards, the "heroic appearance" of the two was in the news, and the incident of Gretz and others "sneaking to watch the game away" also spread among the fans in Dresden and became a well-known anecdote

Gao's goal was a huge morale boost to Dresden, but this excellent counter-attacking opportunity was only a rare opportunity in this game, and with the help of the referee's favorable scale, Braunschweig's defense was simply impregnable, and many times the Dresden players did not even have time to move their thighs, and the ball was destroyed by the home team's players first

Note 1: The highest ranking of the national football team during the Alihan period in history also reached 58, and the national football team won the Asian Cup, and also qualified for the quarterfinals with the first place in the group, and there is no doubt that the world ranking will rush to the top 40, while the Honduran team is ranked outside 40 at this time. But then again, the main reason for this situation is that the FIFA world ranking rules were not very reasonable at that time, and I remember that the Japanese team even broke into the top 15, which is really ridiculous, but after the World Cup in South Africa (maybe a little earlier, but the rules certainly haven't changed in '06). Due to the change in the calculation method, this ranking can more accurately reflect the strength of national teams (to be continued......
