vs 149 Muscle Jungle

(a)

In a certain sense, the significance of the contest between Hamburg and Fulham can be extended.

This is first of all to test the gap between the mid-table teams in the Bundesliga and the mid-table teams in the Premier League, with Hamburg and Fulham being stronger than Fulham in their respective league positions this season, as well as their respective distances to next season's European competition.

Secondly, Chen Zhuo, who was temporarily promoted to participate in the "coaching staff", is a newcomer who has not undergone systematic training and does not have much theoretical foundation and practical experience, and Hodgson is an old Jianghu with more than 30 years of theoretical foundation and has been tested by league battles in many countries.

Third, Chen Zhuo's "chain defense + free man" tactics, and Hodgson's "classic 4-4-2", happen to be the two classic tactical schools in Europe, the "German academic school" of the Hamburg team and the "English model school" of Fulham, which can be regarded as-for-tat.

For the time being, no one has proposed "double hinges + double libero", it is just a game, and everyone does not regard the formation against Mainz as a "new tactical system" for the Hamburg team.

When he reported the list this time, Chen Zhuo left another thought, he reported a 4-3-3 list, and Van Nistelrooy was arranged in the center position, and now everyone was satisfied, and no one said that Chen Zhuo put Van Nistelrooy on the back line was a "waste".

In the 4-3-3 squad, the two forwards are Elia and Berg, the center is Ruud van Nistelrooy, and the three forwards are Ogo, Yarolim and Trokhovski from left to right.

Ogo was brought up from left wing-back, halfway between midfielder and left midfielder, forming a defence against Fulham's attacking point on the right, Danny Murphy.

For the two points of Fulham's attack on the left, Duff and Konchesky, Trokhovski as the first line of defence, and Boateng behind him, Berg will stand between Duff and Konchesky, ready to tackle Koncheski at any time and be ready to counter-attack from this point.

The four defenders on the registration list are Demer, Rozenar, Chen Zhuo, and Boateng, and goalkeeper Rost has returned from injury as the starting goalkeeper for this game.

In fact, it's a three-centre-back plus a back-to-back configuration, with Ogo being a left-back who stands up the front.

The course of the game was as expected, as the comment said, "Every minute and second of the game can be explained theoretically, can be used as an example of visual teaching in training, and can be seen as part of the game as a whole." ”

The Hamburg players felt the same way, they kept passing and running, only to find themselves surrounded by Fulham wherever they were!

In this game, the "reamers" on the two "hinges" are Ogo and Boateng.

Demer assists Ogo and Chen Zhuo assists Boateng, and whichever combination makes a tackle will pass the ball to Rozenar and Yarolim in the middle, who will pass it to Elia, Berg, Trokhovski or Ruud van Nistelrooy as appropriate.

It can be seen that Fulham is running 0-0 today, the four midfielders with an average age of 30 are very careful to save energy, whether it is Danny Murphy or Duff, there is no speed sprint action, although the direct pass counterattack can not penetrate the Hamburg team's defense at all, but they are still persistent.

The point is that the sense of distance between the Fulham players is too strong, no matter which Hamburg player Rozenar and Yarolim pass the ball to, there must be a Fulham player near him, and there will be defenders on Elia's breakthrough line, Trohovski will block the dribbling line, and there is always a big man to cut off the coordination between Berg and Ruud van Nistelrooy......

Ten minutes passed, and the scramble between the two teams was in the middle of the penalty area between the two sides, and neither had a shot on goal.

Whether it's in the Premier League or the Europa League, Fulham's game has a lot of criticism, that is, it's not good-looking.

Fulham are also typical of home and away games, with two away games left this season, and of the 17 away games that have ended, Fulham have won just one, seven draws and seven defeats. Thanks to the current home record of 10 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats, Fulham can occupy a mid-table position.

However, there is also the statistic that Fulham have scored in each of the three rounds of six round-robin matches that have been played in the knockout stages of the Europa League, conceding a goal in four of the other five games and not conceding a goal in one, except for the 1-3 defeat at Juventus.

Swedish Sports Illustrated once debated "whether the team influenced by this style has lost its spectacle" in the era of Hodgson and Houghton's "double rivalry", and the two Hodgson's supporters, Sweden thought that the senior football commentator gave two examples, he said: "Seeing a team with this style is like listening to Glenn Miller and then listening to Charlie Parker, or looking at Picasso after watching a classical landscape painting, the difference between the two is not only reflected in the aesthetic sense. It is only from the latter that you can appreciate the structural beauty of music and fine arts. ”

Glenn Miller and Charlie Parker in his example are both jazz masters, and the former is easy to admire; The latter is more difficult and requires an understanding of the structure of his music before he can appreciate his subtleties. Roughly for us, it is like appreciating pop music and appreciating symphony music for the public, one is easy to understand and easy to resonate, and the other is high and low but the people who understand it are very intoxicated.

This metaphor is a bit far-fetched and obscure, but there is some truth to it, but it is still enlightening for Chen Zhuo, and the music that can only be appreciated by understanding its structure is not so easy to intoxicate if it is broken down into several paragraphs, unlike pop music, where the chorus part alone is equally catchy.

Dismantle his structure with a "reamer" so that his formation cannot be maintained! If the formation cannot be maintained, how can the zone defense be executed? This is the "principle of confrontational tactics" envisioned by Chen Zhuo before the game.

In terms of details, the analysis of seven goals conceded in six games in the knockout stage of the Europa League Fulham was analysed, three were corners, two relied on individual ability to break through the back line to shoot, one broke through and shot alone, one broke through and shot from a distance, and there were two goals, both of which were in positional battles using return passes in the penalty area, and the players inserted in the back row shot unmarked.

Then, the reamer dismantles the structure to destroy the integrity of their defense, and creates more corner kicks and free kick opportunities in front of them in response to the lack of "standard formation" in their corner kick tactics! In the positional attack, the individual breakthrough is handed over to Elia, the long-range shot has Chen Zhuo, and after the breakthrough, the return pass or the gun rack return pass, Elia and Berg can do it!

After about ten minutes of trial, Chen Zhuo decided to start the tactics prepared before the game!

Trokhovsky plugged through, and Boateng, who started quickly, turned around and collided with Duff hard......

The grinning Duff was so cold that the muscles on this black boy's body were like pieces of iron! It hurts!

The referee's penalty was still a foul blocked by the Fulham team, and the ball Duff did block it, but the black boy clearly didn't mean to slow down and dodge, he just hit it on purpose!

Hamburg's free kick in the half, Trokhovski passed back to Chen Zhuo, Chen Zhuo broke through the middle with the ball, and after several passes with Vanney and Yarolim in the middle, Chen Zhuo passed diagonally to the left side to Ogo......

The battle-for-top Ogo collided with Danny Murphy in the air, and the poor 34-year-old Danny Murphy became a victim of the Hamburg team's "reamer" tactics.

This time, the referee blew for a foul on Ogo during the aerial scramble, which was also a collision, and it was clear that Ogo's action was not as clean as Boateng's.

Two collisions in a row, Hodgson's brows have furrowed, frankly speaking, being able to resist the destruction of the opponent's body collision is the basic requirement of the classic 442 in the style of the "England model", is English football still afraid of collisions? It's a joke! It's just that the four players in the midfield are not as good as they were back then, especially Danny Murphy, who is 34 years old, you let the 34-year-old Vanney or the 37-year-old Ze Roberto try it!

After two collisions in a row, Simon Davis, the captain of Fulham, was a little angry, especially the referee did not mean to play a card, obediently, the home of the Hamburg team is really difficult to play!

At the beginning of the second ten minutes of the first half, the smell of gunpowder in the air was even stronger!

Then Etuhu fouled Chen Zhuo when he made a steal, and then the two veteran captains of Yarolim and Simon Davis collided again, and Boateng and Duff, Ogo and Danny Murphy were even more frequently entangled......

Collision is collision, both sides have no additional malicious foul actions, and there is no intention to injure and maim the other party, that meaning is a bit like a competition, you don't accept me, I don't accept you......

Hodgson didn't do it, he went to the sidelines to organize the players to participate in this fighting spirit, I don't remember how old he was or what, just like Danny Murphy, a 34-year-old "old bone", you can collide with the opponent a few times, so exhausting physical strength, don't you just fall into the trap of the other party!

The Germans are difficult to deal with, in the last round of away games against Wolfsburg, it was because of Samora's miracle goal that could not be replicated in 23 seconds, coupled with the use of "muscle jungle" to defend to the death, which only kept a 1:0 victory, but I didn't expect that the Hamburg team used "muscle jungle" to deal with themselves as soon as they came up this time.

"Toot~~~" The referee interrupted the game again with a long whistle and ran quickly towards the accident site, Elia was rolling on the ground with her face covered in pain......

Konchesky was aggrieved and angry, they were all bumping into TM, why did they suddenly come to the "acting department"!

And why don't you break through from your side, why are you coming here, didn't you hear that this Dutchman basically doesn't come from this side? Could it be that you just came here to fall once?
