Zhou Yi did not pass the football forward, but chose to pass it back, who was the most disappointed?

Mainz manager Thomas Tuchel, of course, sitting on the sidelines. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

He was waiting for the rabbit to crash into the stump.

Unexpectedly, before he was about to hit the stump, Zhou Yi suddenly came to an emergency brake, turned around and passed the football back.

Tuchel was surprised, and then he saw Zhou Yi keep passing the ball back, and even the whole person running back, and he kind of understood it - the opponent could see his tactical intentions.

But what if you see it?

Tuchel sat in the dugout without even moving his butt.

Even if they see it, don't they still have to face their own bucket formation, can they score goals by keeping passing back?

Dortmund escaped this time, but there were still 90 minutes to go, and he didn't believe that Dortmund could have such good luck every time in those 90 minutes.

With a little patience, Mainz can always take their chances.

It's just taking a little more time than I expected.

Zhou Yi also tried to catch the ball in the front court, but he was always followed by a person, and it was difficult for him to turn around and organize an attack when the opponent was close to the defense and dense defense. Postbacks can only be selected.

Zhou Yi felt that it was pointless to always play back and forth with his teammates in the front court, so he simply ran back, kept running, ran to the position of the midfield, and directly faced his central defenders.

The opposing team's close defenders really didn't keep up.

Dense defending is very important about the integrity of the defensive formation, and in this system, everyone has to be in their rightful position, otherwise there will be a hole.

The people who defended Zhou Yi did not dare to follow Zhou Yi all the way up, because they were afraid that they would be taken out of his position, which would lead to a hole in the back line.

As a result, Zhou Yi now has an environment where it is easy to control the ball and turn around.

But at the same time, he was further away from the Mainz goal. And the farther away from the goal, the less of a threat, this applies not only to the striker, but also to the current Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi controlled the football at his feet, looked at the goal in the distance, and had such an idea in his mind - maybe he should practice long passing......

Previously, his practice focus has always been on short- and medium-distance passes, and he has practiced the most and passed the best in the five-meter, ten-meter, and fifteen-meter passes. However, he rarely practices long passes of more than 25 meters, because he rarely uses them in competitions.

His style of play is to run while passing the ball, always running into the open to catch the ball, surrounded by his teammates, and the pass distance is not too long. If he wants to transfer the football laterally, he does not directly kick the football over with a big foot, but passes it to a nearby teammate, runs to the next empty field to catch the ball, and then passes it to the teammate in front of him, and then runs, and then makes a lateral transfer through such continuous passing and running.

Of course, such a transfer speed is not as fast as a direct long pass, but Zhou Yi can ensure accuracy and football is always within a controllable range. In the process of this lateral transfer, if you find that there is a gap in the opponent's backline, you can immediately change the cross to a straight stop, and the football will be like a sharp knife, straight into the heart of the opponent.

So Zhou Yi never thought about practicing long passes, he felt that his short- and medium-distance passes had not yet been practiced to the point of perfection, and he was thinking about what else to do? His energy and time were also limited.

But now, Zhou Yi especially wants to have a long pass that is as accurate as a cruise missile.

He tried to pass the ball directly from behind to Kinchek, but the cross was deflected off and the ball was cut off by the opposing defender.

Zhou Yi immediately decided not to try to make a long pass in this game, otherwise handing over the football to the opponent again and again would be a blow to the morale of his side again and again. I will talk about this thing after I practice it later, and now I still have to go up.

When Dortmund scored, Zhou Yi and his teammates cooperated to send the football to the front, and when passing through the midfield, there was little resistance.

As soon as they reached the opposition's 30-metre zone, they could immediately feel the pressure from Mainz's dense defence.

Zhou Yi chose to pass horizontally, he just passed the football out, and the person who was responsible for keeping an eye on him on the other side leaned in. After Zhou Yi finished passing the ball, he did not continue to stay in place, but ran to the next receiving point.

He kept turning his head around as he ran, observing the situation and looking for an open spot to pass the ball.

Mark wasn't idle, just as he was looking for space.

But after a run, the two of them felt the same - Mainz really played the dense defense to the extreme this time, and they didn't find a chance to pass and run!

Their backline is very intact, moving in one place and the whole back line follows suit. Consistent pace and seamless coordination.

It's a performance that's reminiscent of Mainz, who used to defend well and establish themselves in the Under-19s.

When Tuchel arrived, the attacking banner was so high that people forgot that they actually had defensive genes. And now Tuchel is just getting Mainz back to what they are good at......

But this change is really surprising, who would have thought that Mainz, who had been playing in the wind and water before, would turn 180 degrees and play a dense defense?

Zhou Yi couldn't find a chance to pass the ball forward, he could only keep running horizontally and vertically, and then pass back and forth with his teammates in the process, and when he couldn't break the opponent's goal, at least he had to ensure that the football was under the control of his side.

Sometimes, Zhou Yi will pass the football directly back to the defender line, and then run back himself, and back and forth with the defenders.

And the players in Mainz are really calm, watching Dortmund back and forth in the backfield, their people just don't come up.

Such a game was not pretty, so the Dortmund fans in the stands booed in bursts.

However, their boos did not allow Mainz to press a step over the halfway line.

This is probably the hallmark of German football, which values discipline, so even the Under-19s are able to enforce orders on the pitch.

This kind of tactical discipline may not be seen often in the first team, but it was present in this game, which was indeed a serious test for the young people of Dortmund's Under-19s. If they lose their breath before their opponents and start to play casually, the mistakes will increase, and then Mainz's defensive counter-attacks will be accurate.

Borussia Dortmund's head coach Yebala was already watching the game from the sidelines, and he was worried, but he didn't have much to do now.

The only thing he can be thankful for is that Dortmund's rhythm is controlled by Zhou Yi, and Zhou Yi is still very calm and has no intention of panicking.

Seeing that the Mainz players didn't come up, he was not in a hurry, still passing back and forth in the backfield, and he didn't mean to play the football forward.

In the eyes of outsiders, Dortmund just knows how to fall in the backfield, which is not Dortmund's style of play, but now Zhou Yi is controlling the rhythm of the whole team, so if Zhou Yi wants to play like this, other Dortmund players have to cooperate with him. But there is no point in doing so.

But in fact, Zhou Yi's brain was not idle when he fell in the backcourt, and he was always thinking about how to break the deadlock.

He had considered all sorts of passing methods, and all but the long passes, which he obviously couldn't do now, were all in his head.

Is there no way?

A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Zhou Yi's mind, and he thought of a place that he had been ignoring all along.

Why obsess over passing?

As long as you can win, aren't all passes and shots the same?

He felt that he had fallen into a misconception of how to pass the ball, how to instigate the attack, and finally assist his teammates to score.

But I can score it myself!

I'm a striker!

Thinking of this, when the football was passed to Zhou Yi's feet again, he did not continue to pass the ball back, but suddenly turned around and passed forward.

Schurrle, who had been a little impatient by Dortmund's seemingly endless backcourt kicks, was about to come up to break Dortmund's backcourt kicks, but he didn't expect Zhou Yi to turn around, pass by him, and make him pounce.

Once Zhou Yi passes the football forward, Dortmund is a fast pass and fast running style of play.

It's just that they will definitely stop in front of each other's thirty-meter area.

Mainz didn't take Dortmund's attack too seriously, they just had to retreat to their own line anyway.

When it came to the 30-metre area of Mainz, Dortmund's attack slowed down.

Gotze has already pulled to the left to get the ball, Zhou Yi passed the football to him, and he didn't have a good way to go inside, if he broke through with the ball, the probability of failure was very high.

So he passed the football back to Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi didn't catch the ball, he just made a move to catch the ball, but let the football pass between his legs.

Then he turned, and the ball was rolling towards Mark.

Mark was also pulled out of the box, he didn't have a fixed position, and he didn't say he had to be in the box.

The football rolled towards Mark, and Zhou Yi also accelerated towards Mark.

When Mark was receiving the ball, Zhou Yi ran to his side, and had no intention of stopping, and continued to run forward.

When he ran behind Mark, he didn't give Mark a look, a gesture, or a loud reminder to Mark.

But Mark knew what to do, he knocked the football directly behind him with his heel, and it happened to pass to the front of Zhou Yi's run!

Zhou Yi suddenly accelerated to chase the football, this acceleration was very sudden, so that the Mainz players who followed him were a little unexpected-Zhou Yi's running was always slow, leisurely and leisurely, and there was rarely a sudden acceleration sprint, and the marking players who were accustomed to his previous running rhythm naturally maintained a slow running speed, but he didn't expect Zhou Yi to accelerate and throw him away.

Zhou Yi, who threw off the defender, faced the football knocked over by Mark and directly picked up his right foot!

At the edge of the big penalty area, he opted for a long-range shot!

Boom!

Zhou Yi's straight instep hit the football fiercely, and the football flew towards the goal.

The long-range shot was sudden, and Mainz's goalkeeper was caught off guard, and he jumped up a beat late to catch the ball, so he couldn't catch the football, and could only watch the football...... Flew into the goal!

Ten minutes into the game, Dortmund took the lead!

PS, there is something I have to say to everyone.

Because there are only six chapters in the manuscript, and I am in Shanghai from today to the 7th, I am in Shanghai to attend the annual meeting, and the code time is not fixed and there is no guarantee, so in order not to run out of existing manuscripts.

For the next period of time, I will only be able to change one change a day.

When my manuscript is restored to more than ten chapters, I will be able to resume the rhythm of two changes a day.

Actually, I didn't want to do this, but I was so scared that I didn't let the problem of saving manuscripts disrupt my writing rhythm......

I'm so sorry!
