Football will still pass to Shaheen first, after all, Shaheen is the heart of this team, and he has been in this role for the past season, and he has done a good job. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

That's why Hoffenheim will defend against Shaheen in this game.

As soon as Shaheen got the ball, two opposing players rushed up.

At this time, the corner of the Turk's eyes caught a glimpse of Zhou Yi! Zhou Yi was indeed in the place where he could pass the ball at any time!

So Sha Xin did not hesitate and passed the football directly to Zhou Yi.

"Zhou Yi! He received the ball! This is his first touch of the ball in the Bundesliga!" Duan Xin seems to have changed from a commentator to Zhou Yi's exclusive statistician, and he can find extraordinary meaning in connecting any ball.

Zhou Jianliang in front of the TV did not cheer, but stared nervously at the TV screen, as a fan, he knew very well that everything after receiving the ball was the biggest test for his son.

But Li Cuiyun, who didn't know anything next to her, followed the narrator and shouted hello.

"That kid just came on the field, force him!" "Just as Shaheen passed the football to Zhou Yi, Salihovic, who had pounced on Shahin, shouted.

Before the words fell, Gustavo, who was forcing Shahin with him, turned around and pounced on Zhou Yi.

Generally speaking, players who have just come on the field often have not had time to enter the rhythm of the game, their reaction will be half a beat slower than the players on the field, and their feet are not hot yet, and it is easy to stumble on the ball.

At this point, as long as you put pressure on them, they can make mistakes.

It's just that Zhou Yi seems to be a strange man who can't be described as "general......

In the face of the ball from Sha Xin, Zhou Yi didn't even stop, and directly knocked the football back!

The ball flew past Gustavo's feet, but Gustavo, who was pounced on him, couldn't do anything but watch as it rolled towards Shahin again.

At this time, Shaheen was the only one by his side, and Salihovic was not particularly tight.

After receiving the ball, Shaheen flicked sideways and pulled further away from Salihovic.

So he was in a relatively safe position.

"That's good!" Klopp laughed.

"Hmm......" Bwach was speechless.

Zhou Yi may not be unusual in the eyes of many ordinary fans, and it will not even attract attention at all, he is such a simple return pass on the court, it is simply not difficult.

But in the eyes of real professionals, they see something different.

The technique of returning the pass is easy to be seen as a lack of responsibility and responsibility, and the goalkeeper is often booed by the fans.

But backhaul is a tactical and strategic option.

Zhou Yi made Klopp and Bouach feel good, and it was precisely because he chose to pass back at this time, which surprised the Hoffenheim players on the field and created a chance for Shaheen to get out of trouble.

Under the circumstances at that time, most people would definitely pass the football to others, and not immediately pass it to Shahin, who was heavily guarded by the opponent. Or they will turn around with the ball and go forward.

However, Zhou Yi did not covet the ball and did not take his first touch of the ball too seriously, but passed back to Shahin very quickly and decisively, which suddenly disrupted Hoffenheim's pressing rhythm.

In fact, there are many of these seemingly ordinary actions in the game, which will feel meaningless or prosaic in the eyes of most fans, but in fact they are shining with wisdom.

For example, Manchester United's midfielder Michael Carrick was once ridiculed as the "Emperor of Stealth" and "Emperor of Horizontal Transmission", complaining that he could not see it most of the time on the field, just like being invisible, with no sense of existence, and there may not even be a close-up in a game, only some simple passes such as horizontal passes and return passes.

But the tempo of the game is controlled by these seemingly simple passes.

When Carrick is at his best, United don't play the same way.

Not all players on the football pitch are the ones who make the show, but they are just as indispensable.

Just like in Barcelona, everyone applauded Messi's excellent performance, as if Barcelona couldn't do without Messi. But professionals will know that the first thing Barcelona can't do without is the little man Xavi, who is not good-looking, and Iniesta. Even Butzques is much more important than fans think.

"Return ......" Duan Xin was a little regretful. He hoped that Zhou Yi could control the ball more and send the football forward, but he didn't even stop the ball, so he passed it back directly, and the football stayed away from him.

But Tao Wei, a professional next to him, could see it: "It's actually a very smart approach." In Zhou Yi's position, clean handling of the ball is the first priority, if there is too much sticky ball, resulting in losing the ball, it will be troublesome. And in the face of the other party's pressing, he also showed a calm psychological quality. I think Zhou Yi's kick can hit ninety. ”

One return can decipher so many things, and in the eyes of some people, it must be a forced bragging for Zhou Yi again.

But in fact, Zhou Yi's kick is indeed so powerful.

The game continued, although the football was temporarily away from his area, Zhou Yi did not stop moving, but he was not running fast, constantly adjusting his speed according to the situation, and when he needed to, he accelerated to run a step or two, and most of the time he was jogging, which was not very noticeable.

Speaking of which, it's like being invisible......

Borussia Dortmund struggled with attacking development on the flanks and the ball was passed back to Shahin.

As long as the football goes towards Shaheen, there will definitely be at least one Hoffenheim player who will also pounce on Shaheen, and as soon as Shaheen stops the ball, another Hoffenheim player will immediately go up and form an encirclement of Shaheen.

This is how Dortmund's attack has been bogged down in this quagmire before, and it is difficult to move an inch. Because Shaheen was completely isolated by Hoffenheim.

But now, it's different.

The opponent's second player was just on the way to press, and Shahin had already passed the football to Zhou Yi.

After Zhou Yi received the ball, he did not pass it back to Shaheen immediately this time, but turned around while receiving the ball, and then passed the football forward to Grosskloitz, who leaned forward to receive it.

Borussia Dortmund's attack shifted from one wing to another.

As the game continued, Zhou Yi could always receive a pass from Shahin, and of course, he would soon pass the ball out, either a return pass, a horizontal pass, or a short pass forward, but there was no threatening pass, it was a transition pass that looked simple. Like a ferryman on a river, he drove a boat to ferry travelers from one side to the other. Only now the traveler has become a football.

Tao Wei no longer explained Zhou Yi's every ball for a long time to tell the audience how powerful Zhou Yi's ball was.

It seems that Zhou Yi is just an ordinary cog in the machine of Dortmund, and his work and that of others ensures that Dortmund can function properly, but nothing more.

More often, the organization of the attack still relies on Sha Xin, and Zhou Yi is just an assistant to Sha Xin. Help Shaheen get out of trouble, and the dangerous pass is still for Shaheen to pass.

However, although Zhou Yi was not in the limelight, Dortmund's changes were quickly reflected after he came on the field.

When it was difficult for Hoffenheim to trap Shahin, Shaheen became active, Shaheen was active, and Dortmund's attack was naturally revitalized, and Dortmund began to launch a counterattack against Hoffenheim.

"Dortmund's attack has improved during this time!" Duan Xin said.

"Well, Klopp's substitutions are still very targeted. Zhou Yi liberated Shahin. Tao Wei commented.

"However, Tao guided...... We must all hope to see Zhou Yi play better, right?"

'Of course, but football is a team sport and there has to be someone who sacrifices their personal interests for the sake of the collective good, and there has to be dedication. I think when Zhou Yi played, Klopp must have had some requirements for him. He thinks that he should play like this now according to the coach's arrangement......"

Zhou Jianliang listened to the conversation between the commentator and the commentator in front of the TV, and also felt that as long as Zhou Yi could successfully complete the instructions given to him by the coach and finish the game, he would already be considered a success. After all, it was his first appearance and could help the team get out of trouble, and Zhou Yi's performance was not bad. That way, he has a chance to play again.

After Dortmund's offensive took off, Hoffenheim also made adjustments. However, Rangnick's adjustment is not to further strengthen the pressing in the midfield, he can see that after the No. 23 came out, relying on a solid and decisive pass, Shaheen was liberated.

And it is impossible for him to arrange more people to contain Shaheen or Zhou Yi, because there are so many players on the field, eleven people per team, if he spends too many troops on Shahin, then the defense in other places will not be enough.

Borussia Dortmund are not just one Shaheen, others should not be underestimated, you give them enough space and they can threaten the goal as well.

So Rangnick's adjustment was to drop back and shrink the defense and build a wall in front of his own penalty area.

This practice is the most cost-effective. Withstand Dortmund's offensive during this period of time, wait until their offensive continues, and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack.

After Rangnick made the change, Hoffenheim really gave up their tactics of pressing in midfield and switched to stubbornness.

And Shaheen suddenly felt lighter—he didn't have to face two or three people again!

But in this way, Zhou Yi doesn't seem to be as important as before......

Rangnick's move also had the purpose of making Klopp's adjustment that he had just made so long useless.

He didn't know anything about Zhou Yi, or he didn't know anything about it. But he could see that after Zhou Yi came on the court, the practice between him and Sha Xin was the main reason why Sha Xin broke his frontcourt pressing.

Judging from the game during this time, Zhou Yi seems to be an ordinary character of transitional passing, he is responsible for passing the football to his nearest teammate, there is nothing creative and not critical, it is just a part of the hundreds of passes in a game.

Now that Hoffenheim has contracted his defense, Shaheen doesn't need Zhou Yi anymore, so what's the use of Zhou Yi staying on the field? Is it just an ordinary inverted foot? Then whoever can be replaced, there is no need to use him.

So Rangnick's adjustment is tantamount to making Klopp waste a substitution.
