On June 9th, the final round of the group stage of the Toulon Cup began, with Germany and Spain facing China and Brazil respectively.

The German line-up is as follows:

Goalkeeper: Robert. Enke

Defenders: Owomoyera, Borowski, Friedrich

Midfielders: Frijns, Ballack, Ernst, Deisler, Asamoah

Forwards: Michelke, Christian. Tim

To tell the truth, the 98 World Cup Germany was eliminated in the group stage and returned just to show that German football in this era is not in good shape, Deisler is indeed a genius in his early youth, but this product is really a veritable glass man.98 began to represent the first team to play in the Bundesliga, played for 3 months on the knee meniscus tear, the following year in April was a ligament strain and a two-month break, and then successive groin strains and right ligament strain, no joke, The season with the least impact of Deisler's injury was in 2001, when he missed a month and a half for muscle fiber exercises in his right leg, and in October, he suffered a cruciate ligament rupture for half a year, and then immediately returned from injury and was out for a month with a right leg strain. In 2002, a national team warm-up game continued to fall, just joined Bayern on the 19th round of rest, more than half a season.2003 and 2004 suffered from depression in a row, finally cured, played for half a season, and was injured by teammate Hargreaves in training, at this time it was already the second half of 2006, the last generation of talented teenagers in 2007 just turned 27 years old and announced his retirement early, I don't know what this baby did in his last life.

In 2002, the German team was able to reach the final, thanks to the Koreans who hacked Portugal, Spain and Italy. And then their own grouping and schedule are smooth sailing, and it is difficult to win 1:0 to think about playing in the United States, alas. It wasn't until the 2006 World Cup, that is, the rise of the post-83 wave of players, that Ballack waited for a group of good teammates, but it was Neuer's group of players born after 86 who helped the German team lift the World Cup again. So I really couldn't find the right person in the German national youth, and Borowski, who played in the back, was thrown to the central defender.

Of course, this can't be said that anyone can be bullied at this stage of German football, relying on the old tradition and the overall excellent technical and tactical cooperation, like Spain in this period, the top level of Europe's second-rate still did not run.

In terms of player ability, in fact, the strength of Group B and Germany should be worse, but this does not affect the excitement of the game. During the warm-up on the field, Li Bern made a special trip to Ballack's side, and the two chatted for a while.

In this game, both sides relied more on the pitch, with the German team playing more on the wing, especially on the right side of Asamoah. Anyone who has played the live knows that it is rare for Germany to have such a speed-type side in this wave of players, but look at the value is only 86, and the feet of the black brother are still a little rough, and the teenager made a special trip to take a look at the more conspicuous members of the German team, Asamoah has a value of 77 and a potential of 83, which is a little lower than Peng Weiguo. Needless to say, Ballack's teammates are naturally familiar with it, the current value of 80, the potential of 88. Deisler is indeed strong, the 17-year-old baby has reached 81, and the potential is as high as 92, if he can get rid of the injury trouble, the transition period of the German team may be able to pass a World Cup cycle earlier.

The most interesting thing about this German national youth team is that more than half of the players will play for Werder Bremen in the future, followed by Hertha Berlin, which is really worthy of the name of the German national youth team 2 from this point of view.

Speaking of returning to the game, Asamoah's body and breakthrough are still a lot of pressure on defense for Zheng Bin, the left-back of the Chinese team, this German team has height in the front, but also does not lack skills, from Dortmund's Christian. Thiem often pulls on the flanks to meet Asamoah, and Frings, Ballack and Ernst in the middle are all long-range shots at their feet. This gives the Germans more options to attack on the flanks and cross at the end. In the 30 minutes of the first half, Asamoah formed 3 successful breakthroughs, after not grabbing a header in the penalty area twice, the third time he went down, the black brother passed the ball to the position of Ballack at the top of the arc, in the face of Li Byrne's upper grab, Ballack did not hold it up, and gave the ball to Frings who was inserted in the back, and the latter shot at a very sharp angle, but unfortunately hit his teammate and popped up the bottom line.

The Chinese team fell into a disadvantage in the midfield confrontation, and the most important thing was to suffer from the physical confrontation, especially when the technique was not outstanding. In the first half, it was not until the 24th minute that the Chinese team completed the first shot on goal by Zhang Yuning in front of the penalty area against Friedrich's tackle, which was interfered with and then easily picked up by Enke.

In the first half, the two sides exchanged 0:0 scores, but the possession ratio between China and Germany was 37%:63%, and the shots and shots were exactly 4/1:8/5, while the Chinese team only won 3 corners and 1 free kick slightly away from the front, these two statistics were 5 and 3 free kicks in front of the Germans respectively. Judging from the data, it can be simply understood that the Germans attacked twice, and the Chinese team had one chance to attack.

At halftime, Coach Chen Yiming asked the middle players to dare to break through with the ball and use their speed and agility to fight against the German's physical advantage. In the first 20 minutes of the second half, the scene was still improved, especially Wen Junwu, the forward who also came from Guangzhou Sun God, after discovering the weakness of the opponent's right back Ernst turning slowly, gave full play to his skills and flexible advantages, but unfortunately his luck was a little worse. In the 12th minute of the second half, the German team organized an attack in front, Li Bern predicted Asamoad's cross-transfer, quickly inserted the ball from the chest in front of Deisler and robbed the ball, and then took the ball past Ballack, passed a straight to Ernst, Wen Junwu did not stop the ball, and Yang Chen played a two-by-one burst into the penalty area, but unfortunately the ball passed half a step bigger, Wen Junwu could only complete a shovel shot in front of him, the ball was attached to the post in addition to the bottom line, the Chinese team wasted the best opportunity of the game.

This is often the case on the football pitch where when two teams are evenly matched, and when you waste a chance, the opponent always has a good chance of getting the next chance to score. This game was no exception, with Germany scoring the only goal of the game in the 24th minute of the second half. This goal is the German team's defender line Borowski suddenly stepped forward, using the numerical advantage in the front and the middle of Ballack and Ernst to complete a 3-over-2 short pass cooperation, after passing the last barrier in front of the Chinese team's backline, Borowski passed to Michelke on the penalty line, the opponent leaned on Li Bern and knocked the ball back at the same time, Borowski shot from a distance to cause the goalkeeper to get out of his hands, and Deisler was keen to follow up the first time to make up the shot. After that, although the two sides attacked and defended each other, neither had a better chance to rewrite the score, and the final result of the game was fixed at 1:1.

In the other game, Brazil was forced to draw 2:2 by Spain, and in the end, the Chinese team unfortunately fell behind the German team by 1 point and fell into the third place in the group, and did not complete the goal of qualifying from the group.
