973 Bosque's decision
"Are you all ready?"
When Yang Cheng's loud inquiry came out in the quiet locker room, all the players stood up in unison and nodded to Yang Cheng in agreement, all of them looking very serious.
"Then let's go!" After speaking, Yang Cheng, who was standing at the gate of the locker room, opened the door of the locker room, and the sound of the closing ceremony outside suddenly swept into the entire locker room, making everyone feel the atmosphere of the finals.
The players, led by captain Lahm, walked out of the locker room one after another, and Yang Cheng followed the team with his coaching staff, and also walked out.
In the waiting room of the players' tunnel, the players of both teams lined up to prepare for the game, and as soon as the players of the Spanish national team saw Yang Cheng, they immediately messed up one by one, and kept greeting Yang Cheng, and the shouts of the leaders shouted together, which shows how many Yang Cheng's veterans are in this Spanish team.
"Don't fight too hard!" Yang Cheng saw the nearest David Cry Erwa, and was the first to greet him and hug him.
David, Silva was stunned when he heard this, obviously not knowing how to respond.
"You too!" Yang Cheng turned around and hugged Alonso.
Then Iniesta, Arbeloa, De La Red, Villa and Ramos, and finally Spain's captain Casillas, Yang Cheng smiled and hugged him, and exchanged a few polite words with each other.
At this time, the referee of the game also beckoned the players to play, and Yang Cheng deliberately fell behind, so that the players of both teams walked out of the stadium before he followed out of the player tunnel.
As soon as Yang Cheng appeared, the entire Kyiv Olympic Stadium suddenly resounded with overwhelming cheers, and even many fans at the scene played banners and slogans to cheer for Yang Cheng to show their support and affirmation of Yang Cheng.
As the two teams were ready to play the national anthem, Yang Cheng returned to his away team's coach's box, he turned his head sideways, and saw that Bosque had already walked out of the field before the players, and stood in front of the home team's coach's box to prepare.
After the national anthem was played, the audience resounded another burst of cheers, and then the players of the two teams returned to their own half, scattered their formations, and prepared to start the game, and Yang Cheng took the initiative to walk to Bosque in front of the home team's coach's bench at this time.
"Ha, hello, Vicente!" Yang Cheng and Bosque hugged tightly.
"Hello, Caesar!" Bosque also hugged his old friend, but it looked like the big game was coming, his smile was a little stiff, and it was obvious that he couldn't relax at all, even though he had already been through so many big battles.
There may only be one such event in a lifetime, and everyone will inevitably feel nervous.
"Hello, Tony!' The dream has set sail β '" After Yang Cheng and Bosque hugged, he shook hands with Tony Grande and hugged him, then Francisco, Jimenez, and finally Mignano, who were very familiar with the group and greeted each other.
"Are you ready to accept defeat, my World Champions?" Yang Cheng asked with a deliberate smile before leaving.
Seeing him like this, everyone immediately laughed.
"I was still saying just now that if you don't provoke it, it won't be Yang Cheng!" Bosque replied with a smile.
Yang Cheng also laughed, waved his hand at them and returned to his coaching area, now they have all guessed the side, the game is about to start, and Spain got the right to kick off first.
"Audience friends, audience friends, the Euro 2012 final is about to be played at the Olympic Stadium in Kyiv, Ukraine, this is the most important match of the year, against the World Cup champion Spain and the German team led by Kaiba Yang Cheng, both of which are arguably the two strongest national teams in football today." β¦,
"Now we can see the lineup and tactical formation of the two sides, Spain is still playing without a striker in this game, Bosque arranged goalkeeper Casillas, the back line is Alba, Pique, Ramos and Arbeloa, the back is Alonso, the midfielders are De La Reed and Xavi, and the front three players are David Gelva, Mata and Iniesta's Real Madrid attacking lineup!"
"We can see that among the 11 players in the 'Baidu β Qingyierya' lineup of this Spanish team, there are a total of players from Real Madrid, only Xavi, Pique and Alba are all from Barcelona, of which Alba is the Barcelona who switched this season, and their opponent Yang Cheng was the head coach of Real Madrid in the past bamboo season!"
"This game is seen by many people as a contest between Western-style Yang Cheng and German-style Yang Cheng, because the skeleton players and core tactics of this Spanish team are from the Real Madrid team led by Yang Cheng!"
"The German team today has goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, Lahm, Bad Stuber, Hummels and Jerro Milk Boa in the backline, Schweinsteiger, Swinder and Toniklos in midfield, Thomas Muller and Ozil in front, and Klose in front."
"From the perspective of the lineup, Kyle's accidental injury before the game is obviously real, so Yang Cheng arranged Bad Stuber, who performed well in the last game against Italy, and partnered with Hummels as a central defender, and the other positions are basically the same configuration as when he played Italy."
"In the last game against Italy, the German team showed a solid performance, especially defensively, but in this game, Spain's attacking ability is better than Italy's, and the German team's defense will be a big test, and the team ranked No. 1 in the world has not lost a single defeat in the past two years, which makes people worry about the future of the German team."
"But it is precisely because of Spain's strength that we are all looking forward to the German team being able to challenge Spain's king status this time and break Spain's domination of the football world, which will definitely make more fans happy and excited."
When the live TV camera was given to the sidelines, first found Spain's head coach Bosque, and then stayed on Yang Cheng, which has almost become a practice in recent years when the TV broadcast has Yang Cheng led the team.
"Okay, the game is about to start, let's enjoy this world's top football feast together!"
As soon as the commentator finished shouting, he heard the referee blow the whistle for the start of the game.
Spain, who were the first to kick off, were very proactive, and as soon as they kicked off, they quickly turned the ball from the feet of De la Red, and immediately passed it to Alba on the left side, and Spain's left side immediately formed a quick dribble on the left side to cut into the back of the German team.
In the defensive system that Yang Cheng proposed for the German team, the defense on the side is more completed by midfielders and fullbacks, using the way of squeezing to squeeze the ball carrier to the side
Others take their position and defend other players.
In this regard, Yang Cheng introduced the concept and method of Italian chain defense, because in the training, he found through the drill that if he also invested so many troops on the side, it would be a bit more than worth the loss, because whether the side is invested in 3 or 4, it is bound to lead to an absolute disadvantage in other positions.
In the middle of the midfield, the positions of the players can be connected to each other, that is, some players are now the top grabbers of this four-man group, but once the ball carrier passes the ball back, he can immediately or run two steps to become another four-man group of drag-back assistants are connected with each other. β¦,
However, when it came to the wing, due to the limitation of the sideline, the angle and position of the side could not be like that of the middle, so he introduced some concepts of chain defense to further improve the defense of the wing.
It's like this time, because Yang Cheng attaches great importance to Spain's left attack, so he arranged Schweinsteiger on the right side of the midfield to help defend GΓ©ro's milk Boaten, so the two of them pinched Alba at the same time, forcing Alba to pass the ball back.
But just after Alba's return pass, Ramos immediately passed the ball to David Gelva, who had already run to the position when Schweinsteiger was forcing Alba, as soon as he got the ball, the surrounding Sven and Bender immediately pasted it, and Toniklos and Schweinsteiger also attacked from both sides, and Hummels was ready to drag the defense.
This was originally the German team to complete the fan-shaped defensive arrangement for the big "Dream Has Set Sail β " Wei Wei Erva, but it was set up a little too slowly, David Cry Wa has a very keen sense of smell, and as soon as he realized that something was wrong, he immediately passed the ball out.
I saw De La Red plug in from behind, facing David, Silva's incoming ball shot angrily, the ball was deflected!
"Spain actively launched a fierce attack on the German team's defense after the opening, Bosque's pre-game words were not wrong, he put on a posture at the beginning of this game, and it was clear that he was going to play offensive tactics with the German team, and launched a crazy attack against the German team's defense, hoping to be the first to break through the goal."
While the on-site commentator was talking, Yang Cheng also realized the team's problem on the sidelines, revealing a flaw and loophole, otherwise, De La Reed should not be able to face the goal directly.
"It's a normal familiarization process, and it will be fine after a while!" Benitez said.
Yang Cheng nodded, training and official competitions are completely different.
His set of fan defense, although the German team has been running in for many days, the effect is also very good, but it is always completed in training, but no matter what, no matter how high the intensity of the training, it can never be compared with the game, whether it is in pressure, speed, rhythm, or conversion, the requirements of the official game will be higher than the training.
The German team's defensive system has not yet been tested in official matches, so no one knows how effective it will be in this game, and it remains to be seen whether it can withstand the test of Spain's attack.
Soon, Neuer took the ball in goal and Klose grabbed the first point in front, but Spain's defence was smart enough to control the second point directly, and Alonso kicked the ball back to Pique, who quickly transferred it to Arbeloa.
One of the big changes after Bosque played the first game of the group was the liberation of the full-backs, with Alba on the left replacing Miguel Yongrez, which was already a clear signal, and even Arbeloa on the right was actively involved in the attack, as if this time, he got a pass from Pique
Dribble forward to attract the attention of the defence.
"We can see that the German team is very far behind, Arbeloa takes the ball in the middle line, Thomas Muller does not take the first step, it is clear that this is the defensive strategy of the German team, they do not want to expand the defensive area, but to shrink the defense and compress the area in front of their goal."
When he said this, the on-site commentator suddenly laughed, "It seems that Yang Cheng did not lie this time, he seems to want to use Mourinho's Chelsea vs Real Madrid tactics to deal with the current Spain team." β
Sure enough, as soon as Arbeloa advanced to about 40 meters away from the German team's goal, Thomas Ohler began to take the initiative to exert pressure, and Toniklos behind him was also ready to pinch at the first time, but Arbeloa grabbed the ball and passed the ball to Xavi after the "dream has set sail β ". β¦,
As soon as Xavi got the ball, Toniklos pressed it as soon as possible, Thomas Muller and Ozil were responsible for the left and right, and Bender was behind them to assist in the defense, this time the four people changed quickly, Xavi just got the ball, Tony, and Kloss pressed up, and then formed a surroundment. There was no way, Xavi saw that the passing route in front of him was cut off, blocked to death, and had to knock the ball back to Alonso behind him, but Klose forced it for the first time, and Alonso knocked it back again.
As soon as the ball was out of Germany's danger zone, the Germans' pressing and defensive efforts became weaker.
"Not quite right!" Tony gasped and wondered.
When he was defending Alba, David, and Silva just now, he didn't feel it, but now when he saw the German team defending Arbeloa and Xavi one after another, plus Xavi and Alonso, he immediately noticed that something was wrong, but he couldn't say what it was.
It took about five minutes to play a stalemate, and in those five minutes, Spain failed to effectively get the ball into the German team's ugly area, and could only control the ball outside this threatening area, near the halfway line, which was difficult to threaten.
"I'll just say, this kid is never a big unsure battle, and he must be prepared for closed-door training, it seems that he plans to fight us to the end!" Bosque shook his head and smiled.
Spain now has a high rate of possession, because from the beginning to the present, the German team is almost always defending, while Spain is attacking with the ball, but failed to enter the threat zone, which is equivalent to failing to create a threat.
Comparison of the number of shots on goal between Spain and Germany":. , neither side shot on target, which can also be seen how stalemate the situation is.
"Is he learning from Mourinho?" Jimenez asked with a smirk.
Tony, Grande shook his head, "No, it's not Mourinho's defensive tactics, as long as they are in the middle, they always form a four-person combination, and the distance is also very well controlled, it seems that they have worked hard, one is grabbing, two strategies, one is delayed, amazing!" β
The Spaniard's tactical sense is also very keen, and he can see the staffing of Yang Cheng's defensive system in just a few minutes, which can be seen as one thing, whether it can be broken or not is another thing.
"We can't keep the ball on the perimeter, we have to push it!" Tony Grande said.
Bosque himself is well aware of this, and if possession cannot be advanced to the threat zone, then their possession will be meaningless, but now that the German defence is on the table, Spain must find a way to do it as soon as possible.
"Let them go on the wings, speed up, don't stick to the ball, pass the ball in a concise way, tear apart the German defence from the flanks with speed, and then plug in and look for opportunities!" Bosque made a quick decision
Mignano immediately went to convey to the players that it was known, while Tony and Grande applauded.
It can be seen from a series of details that the German team's defensive system is very good, which is true, but because it is good, it is somewhat complicated, whether it is the organization of the four people "Dream has set sail β ", or the switch between attack and defense, it takes time to adapt, especially the transition from the wing to the middle.
Obviously, the German team defends differently on the flanks than in the middle, the flanks have the angles and the limitations of the line that make it impossible for them to be like the middle, and if the ball is passed from the flank to the middle, the German defence needs to switch, and it is clear that they are not very fluent in this transition, or they are quickly getting used to it. β¦,
In this case, once Spain slows down, it is equivalent to giving the German team time to run in and get acquainted, once they are grinding into shape, it will be an iron wall, so Bosque said to play fast, because one is fast, there is no problem of violence exposed, and this speed will all be exposed.
Thinking of this, Tony Brandland looked at Bosque with admiration.
Many people think that the Spanish coach is a fatherly head coach, like a humble parent, but in fact, he definitely has a tactical sense and acumen that does not lose to anyone, at least he can be able to respond immediately after learning about the German team's strategy, and he can judge his strength based on this ability.
As he spoke, Spain organised another attack, with Alba pushing forward again on the left, this time attracting the attention of two players and quickly diagonally to De La Reid behind him, who crossed to Xavi.
Xavi didn't make the slightest adjustment after winning the ball, and when he met the incoming ball, he rubbed a through ball over the top and gave it to the right side of the German team's penalty area, only to see Mata suddenly cut in behind Bad Stuber and grab the ball before everyone else.
This kid is also very smart in playing football, he knows that Bad Stuber and Rahm are desperately chasing back, if you take the ball and rush forward at this time, you will definitely be blocked in front of the bottom line, so this time he did not continue to move forward, but at the moment of getting the ball, suddenly a sudden stop, turned around, took a step back, and waited until the player who was inserted in the back came, and passed horizontally! . οΌ
