In the end, the score between Dortmund U19 and Aachen U19 was fixed at 3:1, and the away Borussia Dortmund U19 won a game. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Neither side could score after the trio changed their style of play, especially the Aachen Under-19s, who had a chance to score, but they didn't take it.

In Schneider's eyes, the approach of the trio of Zhou Yi, Mark and Gotze after leading by two goals is simply useless, and it is difficult to say whether this game can be won if it is not for Aachen's lack of strength.

But in Yebara's view, the situation was not what Schneider had in mind.

Aachen didn't score, not only because their strikers didn't give up, but also because most people overlooked. Even the Aachen U19s themselves are regretting that they didn't take their chances.

There was another reason why Aachen Under-19s didn't score, it wasn't too conspicuous, but it was there. It was the quick cross-cutting combination of Zhouyi, Marc and Gotze that put a lot of pressure on the Aachen Under-19 backline, and they had to put more defensive force into the three.

After all, if left unchecked, the three of them are like training, and they can also play some coordination, and it is not impossible to penetrate the Aachen defense.

Part of the reason for the trio's poor performance in this style of play is that Aachen is very protective and defensive.

So it's a kind of mutual containment.

Zhou Yi's attacking style took a toll on Aachen's defensive energy, making it impossible for them to go all out when they needed to fight to the death in the end.

And Aachen's defense also caused Zhou Yi's performance to be hindered in attack.

Although he didn't score a goal and his performance wasn't good, Yebala was happy with the performance of the trio in this game.

In particular, these three men even know to prioritize the team's wins and losses, making sure the team wins first, and then conducting their tactical experiments......

It's just the coach's intimate little padded jacket.

As a manager, what else can Yebala be up to?

After the match with Aachen U19, the training life of the three of them has not changed much.

The players who participated in the game on the second day of the game did not have to participate in the team's training, but Zhou Yi, Mark and Gotze did not relax, and they met to go to the football field near Mark's house for training.

One game in the morning, dinner at Mark's house at noon, three people play live football during the lunch break, the loser is also in full swing, and the game has to fight when it comes to fighting, Zhou Yi calls this "psychological warfare", and the competitiveness of the teenagers has been fully reflected in the game. Then go to training in the afternoon.

Then they went back to their homes.

The next day, I went to the team to train and still had to play games.

It's still losing.

This is the case every day for a week, and if it's a day, I go to the stadium near Mark's house to continue the special training. If you have a break in the afternoon, you will go in the afternoon, and if you have a break in the morning, you will go in the morning, no matter how windy or rainy.

In the semi-finals of the German Cup during this period, Schneider did not get the chance to start, Mark officially replaced him, and in the semi-final against Saarbrücken, Mark started and scored a goal.

And Zhou Yi assisted again. But his assist wasn't for Mark, it was for Gotze.

4:2, Borussia Dortmund U19 defeated Saarbrücken U19 away and reached the final of the German Youth Cup.

The final of the German Youth Cup will take place on the evening of 29 May. The final will be held at the Olympic Arena in Berlin, where the final of the senior German Cup will be held. It was also two days earlier than this year's senior German Cup final.

Reaching the final of the German Cup is a source of pride in every way. You know, the Dortmund first team this season has not done it.

In the league, Borussia Dortmund U19 is also on a high stride.

Although in the 23rd round, the home team was tied 2:2 by Bochum U19, but in the 24th round of the league, Dortmund defeated Bielefeld U19 6-0 away and continued to maintain the lead in the standings against Bayer Leverkusen U19, which was chasing them.

According to the rules of the German U19 League, except for the first two teams in the league in the southern region to advance to the playoffs, only the top team in the league in the western and northern regions can compete for the national championship in the playoffs.

After 24 league games, Borussia Dortmund U19s are as much as five points ahead of Bayer Leverkusen U19s and with two league games remaining, they will qualify for the playoffs one round earlier if they win in the 25th round of the league.

In the 25th round, Borussia Dortmund U19 host Hupaidal U19, a team that is now second from bottom in the league...... With only four wins, five draws and fifteen defeats in the 24 league rounds, the strength is weak, the advantage is on the road, and the loss to Dortmund is simply a matter of no suspense.

So in fact, it can also be said that Dortmund has already qualified for the playoffs in advance.

In such a situation, Yebara can set his sights on the German Cup final.

Their opponent in the final of the German Youth Cup is Freiburg Under-19 from the Southern Division, who are currently top of the Southern Division and should not be underestimated.

Now that he has reached the final, Yebara will certainly not be satisfied with a runner-up finish.

Borussia Dortmund are very strong, but they also need to be played on the spot.

Now the last thing Yebara is sure about is the performance of the trio.

The game has been going on every day, for more than a month, and it can be seen that the three of them are improving, but they still haven't been able to win the game, and after each game, they are moving their tall and strong teammates on their backs in the 25-meter switchback run.

Three-on-six, plus a goalkeeper, the rules of the game are indeed a bit too harsh.

But instead of adjusting the rules to make it more difficult, Yebara insisted that they do so.

In the beginning, people who didn't participate in the game could still have fun and cheer down.

But as time went on, everyone gradually stopped laughing. Because after such a torturous thing became a daily routine, it really made people laugh, and they began to sympathize with the trio - why was they tortured by the manager in training when they performed well in the game and could score goals and assists?

The three of them don't complain now, because it's useless to complain, it's better to work hard to improve their level.

They also felt the progress of the special training. Whether in the game or in the game, their coordination success rate is getting higher and higher. In the game, they can already tear apart one or two of the opponent's defence with quick passes, but they still can't score goals.

After the match against the U19 match against Lefeld, the entire Dortmund U19 team entered the preparation for the final of the German Youth Cup.

Borussia Dortmund's U19 opponents are Freiburg U19.

In terms of the first team, Freiburg is certainly not a significant player in German football today. In fact, the Freiburg first team is still playing in the Bundesliga.

But in the field of youth training, Freiburg is indeed a well-known youth expert in Germany.

On the one hand, they have a good level of youth training, and on the other hand, their first-team team is willing to give their youth players the opportunity to play in the first team, although German football is now very serious about the youth players playing in professional competitions. But not many of them are able to reach the level of Freiburg.

Of course, this may be related to the fact that Freiburg is a small club with little financial resources, they don't have much budget to poach those big stars, and they can't attract any decent players, so they can only give more opportunities and trust to the young people they have cultivated.

Freiburg's youth success can be attributed to legendary veteran coach Walker Fink, who has been in charge of the team for 16 years, and Freiburg's former club chairman Stock. At their insistence, the club spent a lot of money on building football schools instead of buying reinforcements from professional teams to ensure that the team could stay in the Bundesliga, a move that was questioned and put a lot of pressure on the club.

But with the joint efforts of these two, after so many years, Freiburg's youth training finally has achieved good results.

In last season's German Under-19 Youth League, Freiburg Under-19 won the eventual champion.

They also reached the quarter-finals of last season's German Youth Cup. It was Borussia Dortmund U19 who knocked them out in the quarter-finals.

This time, the feud between the two sides in the German Youth Cup carried over directly to the final, where it will be magnified several times - Freiburg's revenge will also lead to the German Youth Cup.

Speaking of this Freiburg U19 team, in fact, Yebara is still very familiar because there was a competition last year.

And for the past year or two, Freiburg's youth team has been at a high level.

If you want to say that the strongest person in Freiburg's U19 is not a player like Gotze like Borussia Dortmund U19. Their strongest man is on the bench on the sidelines – Freiburg's Under-19 manager Christian Streich.

The coach, who has been with FC Freiburg's youth team since 1995, has a wealth of experience and a unique perspective on football.

If Freiburg's youth system was established by Fink and Stock, then Freiburg's current level of youth training is entirely Streich's masterpiece.

As a youth team coach, Yebara has a lot of respect for Streich.

The coach who has been able to dedicate 14 years to the academy of a club embodies the true meaning of "youth coach". Many of the young players he has developed have already played in the first team at Freiburg. It was he who provided Fink with a steady stream of new recruits to challenge for the Bundesliga - and now that man has been replaced by Dutt, Fink's successor.

As mentioned earlier, Streich has a unique vision of football, which is reflected in the style of football of Freiburg's Under-19s.

The former head coach of Freiburg's first team was Volker Fink, who had been in charge of Freiburg's first team for 16 years, creating some of Freiburg's best results in the Bundesliga and European competitions, becoming a legendary manager and imprinting a strong personal style on the team.

Fink's Freiburg pursued offensive tactics, "attack at all costs, make offense the best defense" is Fink's heartbeat. The desperate attack allowed Freiburg to achieve its best result ever, injecting a breath of fresh air into the then dull German football.

But Streich's style of football is far from Fink's, and even ...... Poles apart. The Freiburg Under-19 manager is more defensive.

Freiburg Under-19s have conceded 27 goals in the league this season, the third-fewest in the entire Southern League.

And Streich's emphasis on defense is not the traditional sense of the team's shrinkage into their own 30-meter zone and swinging in front of the goal. The way he values defense is a little different from the average coach.

He opted to let his team press high, and Freiburg's Under-19 defence started with the two forwards at the top, and the three lines were kept very close, with the centre-backs often overwhelming near the halfway line, and the distance from the baseline was up to forty or fifty metres.

It stands to reason that this strange configuration should be easy for the other party to directly penetrate three lines.

But no.

They have conceded the third fewest goals in the Southern League.

They currently sit top of the Southern League, six points ahead of second-placed Mainz Under-19s, and have already confirmed their qualification for the playoffs.

Why is that?

Because of their high defensive intensity, many teams will be disrupted by their midfield pressing, and they will not be able to organize their attacks well.

Then there's the presence of one of their key figures, the main goalkeeper Oliver Bowman. The young talented goalkeeper has a composure and positional sense beyond his years, along with excellent decision-making ability and a positive personality.

Streich was therefore tasked with tending to almost half of the pitch in front of him, and he had to frequently burst out of the box to deal with incoming balls that managed to break through the pressing and offside traps of Freiburg's Under-19 midfield.

Manuel Neuer at Schalke 04 is a goalkeeper who naturally likes to run out of the box, which may have something to do with the fact that he once wanted to be a striker. However, Bowman was forced to break out of the box, which had something to do with Freiburg's Under-19 style of pressing high.

However, Bowman has done a good job so far, not only with his decisive attack, but also with a number of jaw-dropping saves in front of goal.

For a team with a central player in the midfield, Freiburg's Under-19 style of pressing is a tried and tested tactic.

That's where Yebarah needs a headache.

Because Borussia Dortmund's Under-19 midfield playmaker, Zhou Yi, may face the toughest enemy and the toughest test in this German Youth Cup final.

ps, the second half of this chapter is all about Freiburg, and maybe someone is going to say that they are using Baidu Encyclopedia to irrigate it.

For this reason, I also have some complaints to post.,Please see the next single chapter for specific content - I was going to hang directly under this chapter.,It turned out that I complained a little too much.,I wrote 1,500 words.,Hanging under the paid chapter means that it costs too much more to watch me complain.,It's not necessary.,So I took it out separately.。

It's free anyway, so let's take a look.

It's both whining and tidbits.
