At halftime, Pan Yi did not make any adjustments to the lineup.

Even he wasn't prepared to make any changes at some point in the second half.

First, he believed that the players on the field now had been able to execute his tactical intentions perfectly;

Secondly......

He's already made two passive substitutions in the first half.

In other words, Hamburg now has only one substitution.

At the Calderón Stadium, in front of the wolf-like Atletico Madrid, this substitution should be reserved for emergencies.

Although every passive substitution resulted in a goal, Pan Yi still felt that it was not cost-effective.

If all his players are "sacrificed", who will win the Champions League for him?

'We're three goals ahead on aggregate now and they've got to score four goals to get rid of us.

Pan Yi praised his players first: "Such an advantageous situation is inseparable from your excellent performance in the past 135 minutes!" ”

He then began to emphasize the situation and importance of the second half:

"However, there are still 45 minutes left to end the game! In other words, we haven't really reached the Champions League final yet. ”

'In a Champions League semi-final like that, against a team like Atletico de Madrid in Calderón, to be honest, if someone had told me they could really score four goals, I would have believed it.

"In the history of the Champions League, there are not one or two examples of three goals behind to achieve overtake, I won't give examples here, I think your ears are calloused."

"However, I believe that this kind of thing will not happen to us, because we will not slack off, we will not let our guard down, and we will not celebrate early!"

'Atletico in the second half will definitely start attacking us more fiercely from the start, there's no doubt about that.'

"Then let's organize the defense line and wait for him to attack! I don't need to fight them because I want to win this with minimal effort. ”

"Of course, we don't sit back and wait, we attack when it's time to attack, try to disrupt their rhythm and make their attack chaotic!"

"Finally, let's go out and fight, for De Bruyne, and for Son Heung-min!"

Pan Yi's last shout immediately aroused the fighting spirit of the Hamburg generals.

They responded, then stood up and walked out of the locker room door one by one!

……

The second half of the game begins.

On the pitch, Atletico Madrid's players really put pressure on Hamburg's midfield at the beginning, and directly pushed the defense line through the halfway line.

Simeone also stood in the coach's command area and yelled from the first minute of the whistle.

He knows that there isn't a lot of time left for Atletico.

To score four goals in 45 minutes! It's almost an impossible task.

Even Simeone, who is so determined, is actually very uneasy in his heart.

But he also knew that his uneasiness could not be revealed to the disciples under his command, otherwise it would definitely shake the morale of the army.

Therefore, in the locker room at halftime, Simeone also gave the Atletico Madrid players a chicken blood, saying many cases of turning defeat into victory, so that the players cheered up and created miracles!

Although the Atletico players roared out of the dressing room, they found it difficult to create miracles when they got on the pitch.

Miracles are called "miracles" because of their rarity and irreproducibility.

In the second half, Hamburg put on Atletico's best bus tactics and were aggressive, which made it difficult for Atletico to play a dangerous attack.

So Simeone could only stand in the command area and shout more and more impatiently.

And Pan Yi's side seemed much more relaxed.

He just sat in the dugout chatting with the assistant coaches, eating snacks, and did not give any on-the-spot instructions to the players on the field.

Everything that needs to be done was done at halftime.

What he has to do now is to watch the performance of the disciples on the field.

In Hamburg's midfield, Calhanoglu, N'Golo Kante and Paulinho are currently standing in front of Casemiro, while Vardy is positioned slightly to the left, echoing Mohamed Salah on the right.

So Hamburg is now actually a 4132 formation to deal with Atletico's attack.

Although Atletico's scrambling and high pressing are at the top of European football, Hamburg's players are more confident when they are leading by a large score, and they are more confident in handling the ball on the field.

Coupled with Pan Yi's clear instructions and effective encouragement at halftime, the players implemented the team's tactics more resolutely and thoroughly, which made Atletico's waves of attacks not smooth.

And as soon as Hamburg grabbed the ball, the players in the midfield immediately put in a quick, unobtrusive counterattack, which would also make Atletico temporarily turn into a defensive posture, which would also make Atletico's attacking efficiency less effective.

It stands to reason that when Hamburg counter-attack, it is also an opportunity for Atletico.

Because Atletico Madrid can also play Hamburg after the ball is broken at this time, and then play Hamburg's counterattack!

But at this time, it is necessary to have a player with a wider vision and more delicate footwork to launch such a long pass fast attack to play the space after the personnel are pressed when the Hamburg counterattack.

The problem is that most of Atletico's players are sappers and don't have the type of Andrea Pirlo or De Bruyne.

They have a pitiful low accuracy rate when it comes to long passes, and Diego Costa and Villa in front of them have a hard time getting on the ball.

So, is it okay to use a short pass?

The answer is also no.

If Hamburg is tackled on the counter-attack, the frontcourt players will immediately counter-attack on the spot, which makes it difficult for Atletico players to pass quickly under such high pressure.

If you force such a short pass, it is easy to make mistakes.

As soon as it makes a mistake, Hamburg immediately launches a quick counterattack, and in this way Hamburg is a counterattack against Atletico Madrid, and the ball is often still in Atletico Madrid's backfield, which will be more dangerous!

Simeone, of course, knew the danger.

But he had to take that risk to keep attacking.

Who made them the lagging side now?

And still three goals behind, they have to score four goals!

However, as the clock ticked by, and now that the game was in the 60th minute, the progress towards that goal was still zero.

Everyone knows that Atletico Madrid is now on the losing edge.

Simeone was starting to make substitutions at this point.

He replaced Raul García with Juan Fran and Alda Turan and Gabi with Thiago Mendes and Diego.

His successive substitutions are not really because he wants to complete any epic reversals in the last half hour, but because these people are too tired.

Atletico's players started with the best they could run and output, and all of them simply left no stone unturned.

But after more than an hour of fierce battle, many players are also starting to show fatigue.

And what about Hamburg?

They haven't made any substitutions, but they all look like they can run better than Atletico.

It's been more than 60 minutes, and everyone is jumping around like nothing.

"Why are all the players in Hamburg so good at running?"

Simeone scolded with a wry smile.

Of course, he also knew the reason for this phenomenon.

In addition to the fact that the Hamburg players themselves are younger and more physically fit than Atletico Madrid, their playing style today also determines that their consumption will be lower than that of Atletico Madrid.

The Atletico players are desperately rushing forward one by one, and they are still under the psychological pressure of being eliminated soon, and the physical consumption is obviously huge.

And Hamburg is firmly fenced and waiting for you to attack, only to break out quickly when you counterattack, and then come back if it doesn't work, and then play music and dance!

In this way, it's no wonder that Atletico Madrid is not tired!

In this regard, Zhan Jun also analyzed:

'There are just over 20 minutes left in the game, but from the pitch we don't see any signs of Atletico turning the tables.

"It's not that they're too far behind Hamburg to turn it around, after all, it's possible to score four or five goals in a few minutes, right?"

"But now Atletico is clearly behind Hamburg in terms of the players' running ability, the activity of the players, and the fighting spirit of the players."

'In the first half of the second half, Atletico seemed to be able to hold Hamburg under control, but by now it feels like it's getting harder and harder to get through midfield.

"Pan Yi made a rare combination of three defenders and one midfielder in midfield today, which made Hamburg's defense more solid, and Simeone has never been able to find a good solution to this."

"This is actually a bit similar to the first leg game in a sense, that is, Atletico Madrid seems to have a chance on the surface, but in fact, this kind of opportunity is deliberately shown to the other party by Pan Yi, and in fact, this kind of opportunity does not exist."

"Atletico didn't really threaten the Hamburg goal! Simeone has now used up three substitutions, but the situation on the pitch is still not improving. ”

"The game is coming to an end soon, and Atletico need to score four more goals to win...... With such a fact in front of everyone, the Atletico players may just realize how impossible it is to complete this task, which leads to a drop in morale and a lack of fighting spirit. ”

"Fighting spirit is crucial for a team, especially for a team like Atletico that relies on will and hard work to play."

"So, I can even say in advance that Hamburg have won this Champions League semi-final and they can go to the Champions League final with their heads held high! ……”

In the 85th minute, Pan Yi made a substitution, and at the same time, he used up the last substitution in his hand.

This time it was captain Westerman who came on and replaced striker Mohamed Salah.

Westerman, on the other hand, stood next to Casemiro and formed a double midfield with him.

Hamburg's formation has also changed to a 4231, but the "3" here is three central midfielders, and the position is relatively backward.

At times, Paulinho even dropped back a bit as well, forming a back three with Westerman and Casemiro.

This is completely different from the usual 4231 formation, which includes a forward and two wingers, which is extremely aggressive.

The signal of this substitution is also obvious: Okay, so be it, I won't attack anymore, what do you like!

Then, of course, Hamburg's overall line retreated more, building a defensive line in its own half, organizing a tight defense, and not fighting hard with Atletico Madrid.

So, while attacking without confidence and morale, and not wanting to attack, just walking out of the court safely, the remaining few minutes became pure garbage time.

Before the clock even turned to 90 minutes, the referee, who was in a hurry to get off work, blew the final whistle.

The score of this game was also fixed at 0:2.

And Hamburg also defeated Atletico Madrid with an aggregate score of 3:0 and broke into this season's Champions League final!

At this time, Pan Yi, who has always been very calm, seemed more excited than anyone else.

He was the first to storm the pitch and hugged Kante.

- Of course, he didn't deliberately choose Kante to hug him, who made the baby Kante the closest to him?

When people are excited, they just want to find someone to hug and jump, and it doesn't matter who that person is.

Pan Yi was certainly excited.

This is the first time he has led the team to a real Champions League final!

Although he had imagined such a day since the first day he led Hamburg, when it really became a reality, Pan Yi still felt that it was so dreamy!

There's really no way not to get excited!

And Pan Yi is like this, and the other coaches and players in Hamburg, of course, are running wildly everywhere, and finally hugging each other, singing and dancing.

It's the Champions League final!

Even those veterans who often play in the Champions League can hardly resist its temptation, let alone the young ones in the Hamburg team.

For most people, stepping into the Champions League final is like a dream!

And the first to calm down was Pan Yi.

After all, this is Calderón Stadium!

Don't go too far in your celebration, let's go home.

Earlier, Hamburg was overturned by two people here, in case this gang of bandits is upset, I am afraid that it will be the Hamburgers who are fighting away from home who will suffer if they start a fight......

So, Pan Yi hurriedly beckoned the players to say goodbye to the Hamburg fans and hurried back to the locker room.

At this time, Simone took the initiative to find Pan Yi and startled Pan Yi.

This guy can't be here to cut people, right?

As the head coach of Atletico Madrid, it makes sense to bring a hammer and a machete to the pitch.

But Simeone stretched out his hand to Pan Yi: "You trained a great team, I admit, we really lost." ”

These are the words of Simone.

When he heard the final whistle, saw Pan Yi rushing out of the away team's coach's box, and the players from Hamburg, watching them cheer and celebrate wildly on the field, of course, his heart was very uncomfortable.

But there is also a trace of regret in his heart.

Because he knew that he was not wronged at all when he lost to Hamburg.

Even in the game, Atletico escaped two red cards, or at least a red point.

Hamburg, on the other hand, did not give Atletico any chance after two passive substitutions.

It can be said that Hamburg knocked out Atletico Madrid by knockout on its own strength, not by "points".

Pan Yi has built a very strong, very unique team that fully reflects his personal coaching style.

This team is very flexible in the game, almost like Pan Yi is controlling a team in the game, and can play the tactical style he wants as he wants.

That's the ideal state for every manager!

The defeat of these two legs also exposed a lot of problems for Atletico Madrid, and in fact, it also reminded Simeone of the direction of change and improvement of the team in the future.

At the same time, it also set a new goal for Simeone.

It's about building Atletico into a team like Hamburg that can switch tactical goals at any time!

This will be his focus for the next few years!

"Thank you." Pan Yi also reached out to hold Simone's hand, but his tone was not very kind, and he didn't even look at Simone very seriously.

Of course, Simeone knew why Pan Yi was upset.

If his two men were injured by each other, Simeone would only be even more upset, and even have to do it!

But he can't apologize either.

If an apology is made, it would be tantamount to saying that there was something wrong with Costa's or Alderweireld's defensive moves.

This is a slap in the face for Simeone, who emphasizes the fierce style and fierce fighting.

It's okay to admit that his skills are not as good as others, but to admit that his team's style is not good, and the style of play is not good, which is not something Simeone can do.

Besides, if a manager tells the opposing manager that something is wrong with his players and it reaches the ears of those players, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the dressing room.

Is he still the manager of Atletico Madrid?

So, Simeone just barely managed to squeeze out a smile:

"I hope you can win. In any case, I don't want our city rivals to win the Champions League again. ”

In the other Champions League semi-final, Real Madrid defeated Bayern Munich 1-0 again and also reached the Champions League final.

They will also be Hamburg's last opponent.

Pan Yi raised his eyebrows: "Worship your auspicious words." So ......"

As he spoke, Pan Yi pointed to the players' tunnel.

Now the Hamburg players have left the pitch and are back in the dressing room.

And when Pan Yi said this, it was obvious that he didn't want to talk too much with Simeone.

Since you don't think there's anything wrong with your players hurting people on the pitch, then we don't have anything to talk about.

Simeone smiled slightly awkwardly, "Okay, goodbye." I would have liked to ask about ......"

But Pan Yi had already turned around and left at this time.

Wave your sleeves and don't take away a cloud.

……

Hamburg beats Atletico!

Pan Yi easily defeated Simeone!

Hamburg eliminated Atletico in the most Atletico way!

The match was analysed and reported on the second day by the media from all over the world.

Obviously, 1:0 and 2:0, this is the most frequent score in previous matches at Atletico.

This time, both scores came up, but the winner was Hamburg.

It's not just the score, either.

In the game, Hamburg almost used Atletico's proudest defensive counterattack to teach Atletico a hard lesson.

Atletico looked to have pressed Hamburg in the early stages of the game, but were slow to find the back of the net, instead being knocked down by Hamburg with two shots.

This shows that in the competition between the coaches of the two teams, Pan Yi completely has the upper hand.

All of Atletico's attacking methods seem to be under Pan Yi's control, and Hamburg's lineup is also very targeted, which makes Atletico's midfield play very unsmooth, and the threat of attack is greatly reduced.

On the contrary, Pan Yi quickly made adjustments when his main players were injured and left the field, and the team maintained its combat effectiveness, and did not cause the situation to develop in a direction that was unfavorable to his side.

At this point, the media's attention naturally focused on Atletico's two fouls.

According to Hamburg officials, De Bruyne's right ankle injury is still quite serious, and he is expected to miss one to two months. It also means he will miss the Champions League final in three weeks' time! ”

"Luckily for the misfortune, Kevin De Bruyne should be in time for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. Belgium's first match of the national team will be played on 18 June, when Kevin De Bruyne will be able to play the rest of the game if he does not fully return from injury. ”

"And Sun Xingmin's situation will be slightly better. He suffered a facial injury and is expected to rest for two weeks, and may need to wear a mask to protect his face when he plays. ”

"Such a bad two fouls, Atletico Madrid didn't even get a red card! This is definitely a dereliction of duty on the part of the referee team! ”

"It is strongly recommended that video replays include penalty criteria to avoid the recurrence of such incidents......"

"But we can also see how rare Hamburg's victory was. After encountering such a difficult emergency, they were still able to stabilize their mentality, slowly maneuver with Atletico, and finally achieved a convincing victory. ”

In the post-match press conference, Atletico Madrid coach Simeone refused to comment on the two fouls, but he expressed his admiration for Hamburg coach Pan Yi, which is really a contradictory character......

When it comes to Simeone, of course, the criticism of him is endless.

In addition to saying that he connived at the malicious fouls of the players, it was more about pointing the finger at his tactics.

According to the newspaper As, Simeone made a serious mistake in the game.

"Simeone overestimated his team's ability to adapt to new tactics."

"He thought he would be able to use it in the Champions League if he won one game in the league with 352."

"Unfortunately, his opponent was Hamburg. Pan Yi quickly found his 352 loophole and used it, and finally beat Atletico to the ground! ”

The newspaper also believes that Simeone's tactical thinking is to press the attack from the opening moment to disrupt Hamburg's rhythm and deployment, and try to score as soon as possible to recover the disadvantage of the first leg.

But now the ability of these players at Atletico Madrid cannot support the team's set of tactics.

The player's skill and ability to execute tactics make Atletico often only blossom when attacking, and Costa and Villa are not at all able to play.

"Hamburg, on the other hand, is the opposite. Pan Yi has shown a very high level in both the first tactical deployment and the on-the-spot command, this is the real genius young marshal! ”

"The hamburger he brought out left a deep impression on us in terms of overall technical and tactical level, tactical thinking, and game style."

"Hamburg deserved a win, they deserved to qualify for the Champions League final!"

Of course, there are also people who are starting to express concerns about the upcoming finals.

According to Bild, Hamburg's opponent in the final was Real Madrid, who have more experience in European competition.

They have a more dominant lineup and configuration, with BBC superstars such as Ronaldo, Benzema and Bale, and the overall tactics are also extremely skillful, and the counterattack is extremely sharp.

On the Hamburg side, although their squad configuration is also quite good, there is still a certain gap compared with Real Madrid.

Coupled with the absence of De Bruyne, the core of the midfield, may also have a certain impact on Hamburg's overall style of play.

Then, at this time, it depends on what Pan Yi has to deal with.

"Whether Pan Yi can minimize the impact of De Bruyne's absence on the team and limit the rapid advancement of Real Madrid's superstars will become the key factor in the victory of this Champions League final!"

"In three weeks' time, will Real Madrid achieve their dream of a perfect 10 titles, or will Hamburg win the second Champions League trophy in their history?"

"On May 26, let's see it for ourselves at the Stadium of Light in Lisbon, Portugal!"
