For Hamburg's victory over Ajax, in fact, the domestic media reported more.

However, the focus of their report is not the game itself, but Wu Lei's goal in the game!

Before Wu Lei, Sun Xiang, Hao Junmin and Dong Fangzhuo all had appearances in the Champions League, but none of them scored.

Therefore, the killer goal scored by Wu Lei in the game is still the first player to score in the Champions League of the Dragon Kingdom!

This, of course, will cause a sensation within the Dragon Country, and all kinds of touting will follow.

"There is only one ball king in Hamburg, and that is the king of martial arts!"

However, in an interview with reporters, Wu Lei said that the so-called "Dragon Country Champions League goalscorer" is just a false name, and he still has a lot to learn now, especially from his strong teammates - Sun Xingmin, Salah, Vardy and others.

Hamburg have a lot of competition up front and he needs to work harder to get into more games.

At the same time, he also thanked Pan Yi for his trust in him.

It is this kind of trust that allows Wu Lei to often appear on the pitch as a surprise soldier, and gives him the opportunity to perform in the Champions League, and finally score this historic goal!

……

After returning to Hamburg, the team rested for a day, and Pan Yi soon took the team to the southwest of Germany to challenge Freiburg away.

This is the 10th round of the Bundesliga.

With only three days to go before the last Champions League group game, and back-to-back away games, the players' fitness recovery is in question.

At Pintus' suggestion, Pan Yi also made a strong rotation.

Basically all the starters except goalkeeper Keylor Navas were given a rest.

Although the home team Freiburg is the main force, they are currently in 17th place in the Bundesliga standings, and their strength is actually limited.

In the game, it was also impossible to take advantage of Hamburg's midfield composed of Makoto Hasebe, Paulinho and Calhanoglu.

What's more, Hamburg's forward line also has a strong center forward Mitrovic who is playing better and better, as well as the combination of Dragon Kingdom Double Flying Wing Wu Lei + Lin Zhijian, and Freiburg's defense line will soon be unable to withstand it.

In the 23rd minute, Hamburg's trident played a delicate match in the front, Lin Zhijian found Mitrovic in the penalty area with a half-high ball, and Serbian Tower used a header lightly, and the knowing Wu Lei inserted a volley from the side and back to score the first goal of the game!

Now Hamburg, if you can score first in the face of a weak team, it often means one word: stable!

Like their previous opponents, Freiburg had to move forward after falling behind in an attempt to bolster their attack to fight back.

But this approach is undoubtedly self-inflicted in front of Hamburg, who is becoming more and more controlling - even if it is a substitute lineup, Hamburg can firmly control the rhythm of the game!

In the 39th minute, it was Mitrovic's header again, Hasebe Makoto set up a cannon with a foot pad, and Calhanoglu, who rushed up from behind, shot angrily, hitting a strange arc similar to an S-shape.

Freiburg's goalkeeper Bowman was helpless to do anything about it, and before he could even judge the trajectory of the ball, the ball was already spinning in the net behind him.

0:2, in front of such a Hamburg team, this has basically pronounced the fate of Freiburg's defeat in this game.

After 70 minutes of the second half of the game, Pan Yi even replaced Janssen, Wu Lei and others who had come off the bench in the Champions League, and replaced them with "third team" household registration players like Best, Arslan, and Jonatan Ta to exercise.

But the performance of these youngsters did not disappoint Pan Yi.

In the 88th minute, that is, 2 minutes before the end of the game, Arslan sent a through stopper, and Best scored with an easy shot, and the final score was also fixed at 0:3.

Hamburg once again took the three points comfortably!

Then, in the 11th round of the Bundesliga on November 2, Hamburg, who was well rested, seemed to be more comfortable.

Although they face the stronger Borussia Mönchengladbach at home, who are currently fifth in the table, they also have a stronger squad!

This time, Pan Yi put on a semi-rotation lineup to save strength for the second Champions League group stage against Ajax in four days.

I stayed, but I didn't leave it completely.

After all, Ajax's strength may not be stronger than Borussia Mönchengladbach.

So it's almost half and half, and anyway, no matter how the players are arranged and combined, the players at Hamburg always play very well – as long as they don't work blindly, like playing N'Golo Kante as a central striker.

And in tonight's game, the midfielder of De Bruyne + Hasebe Makoto + Paulinho still suppressed the combination of the two central midfielders Xhaka + Kramer of Borussia Mönchen 442.

One variable is that it rained lightly in Hamburg today and the venue was a little slippery.

So Pan Yi asked the players to play more concisely and directly.

Some of the small combinations that used to be required to play in midfield are now omitted, and more through passes are used to hit the opponent's back, using the speed of the strikers to attack the opposition's defence.

As a result, De Bruyne sent through balls frequently, allowing Vardy to receive the ball again and again to shoot.

In terms of defense, Pan Yi requires the pressure in the front court to be more fierce and fast, so that he can take advantage of the slippery characteristics of rainy days to cause more mistakes by the opponent.

Obviously, Borussia Mönchengladbach, who were playing away, looked a little uncomfortable from the start, especially under the pressure of Hamburg's high pressing, and the situation was very embarrassing.

Just in the sixth minute, Borussia Mönchen defender Stanz made a mistake in a pass and Son Heung-min and Jamie Vardy, who played as right wingers in the game, made a one-two on the edge of the box before hitting the wall and slotting into the box.

Son Heung-min broke through another Borussia Mönchenchen centre-back, Janczyk, in the box and opened the scoring for Hamburg with a kick-shot.

Ten minutes later, this time it was an attacking combination from the left.

Wu Lei forced a breakthrough and passed diagonally behind him, Paulinho successfully won the ball in the anti-offside position to form a single knife, and after attracting the attention of Borussia Mönchenchen's goalkeeper Ter Stegen, he crossed to the unguarded Vardy.

The England center easily pushed the empty goal, 2:0!

In the second half of the game, Pan Yi continued to deploy his troops, allowing some starters to rest in preparation for the Champions League group stage.

Both sides have also been unable to score.

Of course, it wasn't because Hamburg didn't create a good chance to score, but in the second half of the game, Germany's new goalkeeper Ter Stegen was like Spider-Man possessed, keeping out all the shots of the Hamburg players.

But a score of 2:0 was enough.

After taking the top spot in the Bundesliga table, Hamburg have won two in a row and retained their position with five goals scored and conceded.

However, their lead did not widen.

In these two rounds, Bayern and Borussia Dortmund also won two in a row.

Bayern narrowly beat Hertha Berlin 3-2 and then beat Hoffenheim 2-1 away.

Borussia Dortmund, on the other hand, were a bit more relaxed, beating Schalke 04 3-1 in the Ruhr derby and beating Stuttgart 6-1 in their next game.

As a result, these three teams are still in the top three with 31 points, 29 points, and 28 points respectively, forming the first group to compete for the Bundesliga title this season.

Bayer Leverkusen, who are fourth, are a bit behind.

They won 2-1 against Augsburg in the 10th round, but unexpectedly lost 0-1 away to the currently bottom-ranked promoted Maunschweig Braunschweig in the 11th round!

Braunschweig's Clippers striker Bellaraby took advantage of a counter-attack to win in the 80th minute.

(As an aside, perhaps it was because of his excellent performance in this game that Bayer Leverkusen bought him later.) ）

This defeat left Bayer Leverkusen six points away from Hamburg at the top of the table, and also made head coach Finn Hyypia controversial.

On the second day of the game, many German media gave fierce criticism to Hyypia's line-up and on-the-spot command in this game.

The main thing is that in the face of Braunschweig's defensive counter-attacking tactics predictably, Hyypia actually put last season's Bundesliga top scorer Kiessling on the bench and didn't think of replacing him until the score was down.

And Braunschweig's breakthroughs on both flanks were sharp and the speed of counter-attacks was also fast, especially on Bella's side.

However, Hyypia seemed to completely ignore this obvious flashpoint, and did not make any targeted defenses, but allowed Bellaby to break through the less explosive Emre Can wantonly, and finally caused bad results.

In fact, if it is a regular season in the past, Leverkusen has played 11 rounds this season, 8 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses is already very good, but they have three terrifying opponents this year.

Borussia Dortmund with 9 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss.

Bayern Munich with 9 wins and 2 draws.

And 10 wins and 1 draw for Hamburg!

！

This is already destined to raise the bar for winning the Bundesliga this season to an unprecedented level, and these teams are simply not allowed to make any mistakes.

At this juncture, Bayer Leverkusen lost to the bottom of the table, and the manager will definitely be pointed at by Qianfu.

In the face of the accusations, the hot-tempered former Liverpool centre-back Hyypia was also unrelenting, and he publicly slammed the player's performance in this game, believing that the player's failure to faithfully follow the manager's tactical instructions led to the defeat.

Including Emre Can, who has been repeatedly blasted by Bellarabi with speed, Hyypia also believes that he has betrayed his trust and failed to complete his defensive duties.

In fact, Hyypia's doing so also reflects how much pressure the German top three put on him, especially Hamburg.

Because it's normal for Bayern and Borussia Dortmund to be in front, but Hamburg is perennially behind Bayer Leverkusen.

Either way, Hyypia's approach is wrong.

Under normal circumstances, a manager should not dump the blame on the players!

And after such remarks were exposed, it led to instability in the Leverkusen dressing room.

It is said that Emre Can had a big fight with Hyypia after a training session, and the team's veteran Kisling also sided with Emre Can, believing that Hypi had gone too far.

In this incident, the German media also blamed Hyypia.

They all agreed that Hyypia's own command was problematic and that the blame should not be shifted to the players.

'It's understandable that Hyypia was very angry when he was thrown out of the first group after losing to the vice-captain, but the problem is that he should reflect on his line-up in this game.

"I didn't let Kiessling start at this high point, and I didn't make a strong adjustment to the disadvantage on the field in time, this pot can't be carried by the players, right?"

"It's true that there are certain problems with the form of the players, but Hyypia should reflect on himself rather than blindly blaming others."

And Bild said: "A manager of a team should never do that. Compared with the unbelievably angry Hyypia, Pan Yi's handling of the Hamburg loss was much smarter. Perhaps, Pan Yi is much cuter than Hyypia! ”

Indeed, the German media now only praise Pan Yi.

Of course, this season's Hamburg, Pan Yi has not yet had the opportunity to "show" Hyypia the correct approach of a head coach after the loss.

After all, Hamburg hasn't lost yet!

But recalling last season, after Hamburg suffered a defeat, Pan Yi did take the initiative to take the responsibility on himself, instead of blaming the players for no reason.

Especially accusations in front of the public.

If the player really has any problems, Pan Yi will also talk to him within the team and privately, and then analyze the problem together and then solve the problem.

Saying this kind of thing in front of outsiders has no benefit other than increasing the team's contradictions!

Not to mention the pressure of results, wasn't there much pressure on Hamburg at the start of last season when they were eliminated from the German Cup and lost to the bottom team in the league? But he wouldn't do such a retarded thing.

And the German media's praise for Pan Yi, in addition to the locker room atmosphere in which he handled the position of head coach is simply so good, of course, is also because of Hamburg's good results.

On the one hand, Hamburg has successively defeated strong teams in Serie A, La Liga, and Eredivisie in the Champions League, ranking first in the group of death, which can be regarded as earning a lot of face for German football;

On the other hand, Hamburg is also making great progress in the Bundesliga, and under such strong pressure from Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, they are not flustered at all, and still firmly hold the first place.

"Hamburg have won six in a row, and even with a lot of rotation, they still have a way to win. If they continue to be strong, they really have a good chance of winning the Bundesliga! ”

"Incredible! At the start of the summer, many people said that Hamburg was a flash in the pan and that finishing second last season was just luck. When Pan Yi said that the goal was to win the championship, countless people ridiculed him for not being able to do his best, but now? Reality has given those who look down on burgers a hard slap! ”

"One thing one has to admit is that Pan Yi is an amazing and capable manager. Forget his age, he is not inferior to any other manager in today's football, because he made Hamburg a championship team! ”

"Pan Yi is like a messenger sent by God to Hamburg, and this messenger has brought victory after victory to Hamburg."

In fact, not to mention German fans, even Hamburg fans and Dragon country fans, when Pan Yi shouted the slogan of winning the Bundesliga championship, his first thought was "Impossible, right?" ”

After all, Bayern Munich, which won the championship last season, is Bayern, which has set the record of winning the Bundesliga with the highest score in history, and Bayern, who has won the European five crowns, is an invincible division.

And Dortmund, although they were pulled off the championship by Bayern last season, are still stars and outstanding in the team.

If Hamburg wants to win the championship, it will have to break through the encirclement and interception of these two teams, and the difficulty can be imagined.

To play consistently in a year's competition, you can hardly afford to make any mistakes!

Look at Bayer Leverkusen, who are falling behind in such fierce competition.

But Hamburg held on.

And they are even more stable than Bayern and Borussia Dortmund.

Whether it is home or away, whether it is the main substitute, no matter whether the opponent is strong or weak, Pan Yi's team can always find corresponding countermeasures and then defeat the opponent.

And what made fans support Pan Yi even more was because he brought a gorgeous offense to Hamburg.

Everyone says that "defense wins the championship" is the truth, and this argument has been circulating since AC Milan's 58-game unbeaten run, but Pan Yi clearly wants to break this myth.

Hamburg relies on offense to crush the opponent in almost every game!

Even in the Champions League group stage, facing AC Milan, or even facing an attacking player like Barcelona, Hamburg was not afraid at all, and still defeated the opponent with attack!

And Hamburg's offense is strong, the defense is actually not weak, and there are many clean sheets!

It also has a feeling that "offense is the best defense".

Such a burger looks really invincible!

Therefore, although Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are still chasing after them, there are more and more media and fans who believe that Hamburg can win the championship.

For Hamburg fans, there is real hope this season and it seems that they can really pursue that otherwise unattainable title.

This ecstasy is hard to describe in words.

And the same goes for Dragon Nation fans.

For them, where Pan Yi is, which team is their home team.

Now that Hamburg have a chance of winning the title, can they not be happy?

……

Of course, not everyone thinks the burger is good, and there are still some people who are singing the opposite.

On Sky Sports' talk show, former Manchester United star Gary Neville expressed his disdain.

He believes that Hamburg can only succeed now because they are in the Bundesliga.

Bundesliga teams tend to focus too much on attack and not enough on defense, which allows a team like Hamburg to play a fluid attack.

And if Hamburg is put in the Premier League, it will definitely be beaten by the strong defense of the Premier League team, and the offense will be fragmented, and it will not be effective at all.

Former Liverpool star Jamie Carragher retorted: "If Hamburg are only playing in the Bundesliga, you can say that. But they have also been successful in the Champions League, winning three in a row against the likes of Milan, Barcelona and Ajax, how do you explain that? ”

Neville laughed: "These three teams are not Premier League teams either, and their style of play is on the soft side. You see, if Hamburg meets Manchester United, Manchester City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool in the knockout rounds...... Oh, sorry, there's no Liverpool in the Champions League...... Haha......"

Last season's Liverpool only finished 7th in the Premier League, so naturally they did not qualify for the Champions League.

And Neville, who was a Manchester United player when he was a player, couldn't help but tease a few words every time he faced Carragher.

Before Carragher could reply, another Manchester United legend, Royin Keane, also said: "I agree with what Gary said. Hamburg's group of players were trained into a group of soft eggs by Pan Yi, the coach of the Dragon Kingdom, and they would fall back and forth in the midfield. And now the players are really not tough enough defensively, if they touch me back then, hehe, it is absolutely impossible to let them pass through the midfield so easily! ”

Keane, who is a tough guy on the court, does seem qualified to say such things.

But at the same time, it is also a manifestation of "thick ancient and thin modern".

In fact, football tactics have changed a lot in the last decade, and if the team of ten years ago really competed against Hamburg today, the probability of winning would be Hamburg.

After all, whether it is the running distance of the players, the degree of coverage of the field, including the meticulousness of tactical requirements, and the clarity of the responsibilities of the players, it is no longer what it used to be.

Even the rules.

Let's talk about Keane's tough defense, if he still has frequent flying tackles on the court today, I am afraid he will not be able to play a few games in a season.

At this time, the host came to Inkel and said:

"I really like the way Hamburg is playing."

'They like to control the ball, but they're not addicted to it, they pick up the speed when it's time to do it.

'They like to attack, but they don't shy away from defending, and they still make concessions in midfield when necessary to find better moments.

"They also have talented attacking players, such as Kevin De Bruyne, Son Heungmin, Salah, Wu Lei, etc., who can also play incredible performances on the pitch on a regular basis."

"To be honest, this team reminds me of Barcelona who won the Universe six times. Yes, it's Pep Guardiola's Barca. ”

Leinkel was also a legendary goalscorer as a player, having represented England as top scorer at the 1986 World Cup.

Of course, he has achieved many honors throughout his career, and the most talked about by fans is that he has never received a yellow card in his career, and is known as a "football gentleman", which can be called a good story in world football.

So, it is understandable that his views are very different from those of the "Fauvist" Keane.

"But I still have the same point of view, the main reason why Hamburg can play this kind of football is because they are too weak defensively." Neville shook his head, "Unless Pan Yi can come to the Premier League to prove himself, I will take back my opinion." ”

Keane also said: "Actually, I don't need to. His team doesn't have to face my defence, they just have to play at Old Trafford. I don't believe Hamburg can play so well with Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic! ”

Carragher smiled: "Okay, I see that the probability of Hamburg meeting a Premier League team after qualifying is not low, so let's wait and see......"

……

The next day, Inzaghi found Pan Yi to chat after training: "Did you watch yesterday's Sky Sports? The Manchester United legends said we couldn't play in the Premier League. ”

Pan Yi smiled: "What do you care about those big mouths? It's as if we didn't beat a Premier League team in Milan. ”

If there is one team in this world that loves to talk the most and hates the most, it is probably Manchester United.

They're always going to point fingers at their own team, even when the results are good, and when United don't do well, all sorts of weird things will come out of it.

But what Pan Yi didn't expect was that their mouths were actually controlled by themselves who were far away in Germany......

What does it mean to go to the Premier League to prove yourself?

Messi has won so many honors in La Liga, just because he has never been to the Premier League, he is not the world's top superstar?

He's even one of the top scorers against a Premier League team, so what if he goes to the Premier League?

So Ronaldo hasn't even won the Chinese Super League championship, so how can he prove that he is better than Muric?

The same is true for many fans, who always like to use this kind of rhetoric to belittle some players.

For example, when Haaland was in the Bundesliga, it was a similar statement, saying that the Bundesliga does not pay attention to defense, so Haaland scores more goals, but he can't go to the Premier League.

As a result, Haaland killed all sides in the Premier League, saying that it was because of Manchester City's strong attack and giving him more support, but he completely ignored Haaland's goals in Dortmund and even Red Bull Salzburg in the Champions League.

In short, relying on the mouth cannon and the keyboard, you can always be invincible.

It's a waste of time to be honest with these people.

"I'm just a little upset." Inzaghi brushed his hair, "I just want to play in the Premier League right now, especially Manchester United. ”

This strong competitive spirit is just as strong even when Inzaghi is no longer a professional player.

"Okay, I'll join you in praying for Manchester United to finish second in the group and then meet us." Pan Yi smiled, "But we have to prepare for the home game against Ajax......
