Section 176 Offensive and defensive ends

(a)

In addition to the shine of Mesut Ozil, a young midfielder has also contributed to Bremen's strengthening at both ends of the pitch this season. Bagfred, the youngster wearing the number 44 shirt, has been successfully transformed into another "box-to-box-MF" (all-round midfielder) by Schaf this season, starting from the early part of the season, Bagfred and Torstenflins partnered in the double midfield, and the two "box-to-box-MF" (all-round midfielders) have maintained a very good winning rate in more than 20 games in the starting pair.

By the way, let's talk about the "box-to-box-MF" (all-round midfielder) and the Thorsten Frings.

In English, the penalty area is penalty-area, also known as penalty-box, which should be a rectangular size of the forbidden area like two "BOX" (boxes), so as the name suggests, "box-to-box-MF" means, that is, from this penalty area to that penalty area, refers to the activity area of the midfielder, so it is translated as "all-round midfielder".

"box-to-box-MF" is a subdivision of the traditional midfielder, and "All-round-MF" or "Complete-MF" has the same meaning, but this all-round ability refers to its range of activities, generally this kind of midfielder to the opponent's BOX is to participate in the attack, not responsible for the organization of the attack.

This kind of "penalty area to penalty area" midfield, is an indispensable position in offensive football, Bremen's other back Tolsten Frince, is the first all-round midfielder successfully transformed by Schaff, 10 years ago, 24-year-old Torsten Frins in Schaff from the striker to the all-round midfielder, after two seasons of experience, in 2002 Torsten Frings was called up by the German team to participate in the Japan and South Korea Shijie Cup, since then in the German national team main back position for ten years, He has missed just two major international matches for Germany in 10 years and holds the record for attendance. In this year's Shijie Cup, the 34-year-old Torsten Frins may also be called up by Loew.

The 21-year-old Bagfred has been called the successor to Tolstenfrins this season, and Schaff seems to mean the same thing, with a combination of old and new, taking turns to attack, taking Tolstenfrij's experience and Bagfring's physical advantage to the extreme.

However, Bagfred's weakness lies in his basic physical condition, with a height of 1.74 meters and a weight of 70 kilograms, he is inferior to Torsten Frins who is 1.83 meters tall and weighs 80 kilograms in terms of air supremacy and physical confrontation.

In response to Bagfred's strengths and weaknesses, Schaff arranged Borowski, who returned from Bayern Munich this season, in the midfield, and the other main midfielder of the German national team, with a height of 1.94 meters, allows Borowski to make up for Bagfred's lack in air supremacy.

Another midfielder is the organizational midfielder, Ozil, this Turkish player was Trokhovski's substitute when he joined the German national team in early February 2009, and in just one year, Ozil has replaced Trokhovski's main position.

(b)

In addition to the three German internationals of Frijns, Borowski and Ozil, Marin on the bench is also a member of the German national team, in contrast, among the five members of the midfield of the Hamburg team, in addition to the teenager Byster, Trokhovski, Yarolim, Berg, and Van Nistelrooy are also international players, but in terms of individual ability, the midfielder of the Hamburg team will still be slightly inferior to Bremen.

The midfield is slightly weaker, but the Hamburg back line is more intense than Bremen.

At the back of Bremen, the 25-year-old Mertesacker is the main central defender of the German team, and his height of 1.98 meters makes Mertesacker not only excellent in air defense, but also one of the important scoring points for the German team and the Bremen team in set-piece tactics.

Mertesacker was joined by the Brazilian national team's substitute centre-back 1.92m Naldo, and the two wing-backs on the left and right were 30-year-old Finnish left-back Petri Pasanen and 30-year-old right-back Clemens Fritz.

Although Narddo, Pasanen and Fritz are also international players, but all three have obvious shortcomings, Naldo and Pasanen focus on defense and light attack, Bremen is not short of offensive players can still be balanced, Schaff has always been good at using players to play up their strengths and avoid weaknesses, and there is also the 200 season of the "Bundesliga assist king" Clemens Fritz, Naldo and Pasanen full-time defense, Fritz plays the assist specialty, Mertesacker dispatches and commands, this combination can indeed achieve a balance of strengths and weaknesses, However, I am afraid that the opponent will use tactics to suppress strengths and upset the balance.

Fritz was also called up to the German national team by Jurgen Klinsmann and Loew at the peak of his career, but more of a substitute for him to play right midfielder Piggy Schweinsteiger, the defensive function of the right back, Fritz is indeed weaker, and playing right back in the national team is a bit worrying.

It can even be said that Fritz's right side is the main shortcoming of Bremen this season and last season, and the introduction of Borowski this season is to make up for the lack of Fritz's right side defense.

Relatively speaking, the defense of Ogo, Boateng, and Mathieson will not have obvious weaknesses and shortcomings like Bremen, in the list of the German team of this Shijie Cup, Hamburg's Ogo, Boateng, and Janssen are all in Loew's call-up, and the Hamburg team accounts for 3 of the 8 defenders in the squad, Bayern Munich was selected Lahm and Bad Stuber, and the other 3 are Bremen's Mertesacker, Stuttgart's Tusge and Hertha Berlin's Friedrich, This also shows that this defensive line of the Hamburg team this season and the individual ability and cooperation of the players behind the Hamburg team have also been approved by Loew.

In addition, there is Chen Zhuo, the zuihou level of chain defense, this ...... For this phenomenal Mr. Surprise, it is indeed not easy to make comparisons.

(c)

As a tactic, it is not just the players who are arranged, but also the source and core of the opponent's attack and freeze it, which is the true meaning of defense.

Bremen's attack source points are still a lot, the organization midfielder Ozil is the first focus, Chen Zhuo's arrangement of the "hinge" is basically aimed at Ozil, the young player Bister and the right fullback Boateng are the two lines of defense arranged on the left side of Ozil's habit, double reamers.

If Mesut Ozil had not opted to cut inside from the left, the defence of Yarolim and Mathieson would not have been weaker than that of Bayster-Boateng.

If Ozil were to switch to the right, Trokhovski, who was familiar with Ozil's style, and his international team-mate Ogo would be able to make the most of the stop.

There are three vertical defensive lines, and Chen Zhuo, and no matter which vertical line Ozil breaks through, he will not face two defenders, but three, and Ruud van Nistelrooy, who plays in the back, will press from the position.

Then, Bremen's attacking attack was driven by a high post from right-back Borowski, a wide assist from right-back Fritz and a long pass from centre-back Mertesacker.

Eventually, these will be implemented by two strikers, the 1.90m Portuguese striker Hugo. Almeida and the 1.84m Peruvian striker, who is also currently tied with Chen Zhuo for the top scorer in the Europa League with 9 goals, are both point-grabbing strikers in Bremen's tactical attacking system.

Almeida has always been a secondary attack in the Portuguese team, which is good at ground attack in the European Latin faction, while Pizarro, although his height of 1.84 meters does not dominate the long court, has earned him the nickname "Andean bomber" due to his excellent sense of grabbing points.

These two strikers are within the top 15 in the Bundesliga, and their weaknesses are similar, neither of them is good at dribbling the ball to break through the type, relying more on the midfield to fight for the first and second landing points, and the two are not in stable form, so Pizarro, who has dual citizenship of Italy and Peru, can only play for the Peruvian national team and cannot be called up by the Italian team.

(iv)

At the beginning of the game, the two sides fought and fought in the midfield, and within five minutes Ozil's intention to attack from the left, center and right directions was recognized, Best not only destroyed Ozil's attack on his right side out of the sideline, but also used speed to catch up when Ozil cut in the middle, although the steal with his back leg was blown foul by the referee, but it also shows that this little guy is not afraid of Ozil at all.

Then it was time to play on the right, Trokhovski and Ozil were entangled in the position, forcing Ozil to have to pass back, only to have the ball cut off by Ruud van Nistelrooy, and after going to the right, Ozil and Borowski switched positions, and Ruud van Nistelrooy's pass allowed Garson to single out right-back Fritz.

Although the result of the first heads-up was Fritz's successful destruction of the ball out of the sideline, Schaff also found that the Hamburg team was fully prepared today, especially the performance of the two post-90s boys, which was even more unexpected.
