After the semi-finals of the European Championship, there are only three days to prepare for the final.

During this time, the two finalist teams were also preparing intensively.

Neither Germany nor Croatia want to miss the moment of the European Championship final.

This is especially true for the German team.

Ballack led his team all the way to the European Championship final after beating Loew, which all but proved his choice right.

He was just one step away from matching his predecessor, Beckenbauer.

It's just that Barak has never been able to step out of this step.

Ballack, he is probably the most tragic star in football.

The title of 'the second in ten thousand years' has always accompanied him.

Although he is a top star in football and his strength has been recognized enough, he just can't take this step.

Barak is 36 years old, and it's not certain how many more years he can last.

So far, he has won zero honours in the Central European Championships and the World Series.

2002 World Cup runner-up!

He represented Chelsea in the Champions League, Premier League, English League Cup, 'King of Sanya'.

Ballack doesn't want to be the second child anymore, and watching his opponent on the podium is disgusting to watch.

He wants to be a winner!

He wants an absolute honor!

For this reason, in this year's European Cup, he did not hesitate to set up Loew to insist on his own ideas.

Ballack is well aware that if he misses this time, it will be a question of whether there will be a next one.

"Don't miss it!"

During training, Barak looked solemn.

He slammed a shot straight through the goal, which was full of power and angle, which showed his excellent form.

"Croatia's current form is not in its heyday, Vukojevic is injured, Rakitic is red-carded, and the absence of these two players is a certain loss for Croatia."

Schweinsteiger said.

"But Suker is still there." Ram's brow furrowed.

They are all Bayern players, and to put it bluntly, they were kicked out of the psychological shadow by Suker.

Anyone who is slaughtered by the same team, the same person, for two consecutive seasons has to have a psychological shadow.

What's more, Ram was getting rid of Su Ke again and again in the confrontation with Su Ke.

Once confronted Suk, Ram always had a feeling of confusion.

Usually the head is very clear, and the movements are also very neat.

But when Suke stood in front of him, his head went blank.

He knew it was a kind of nightmare, and he thought about overcoming it, but the effect was not too good at the moment.

'We've been doing well during this period, we're in good shape and we're full of morale. Schweinsteiger Dao; "We're sure we'll win."

Ram pursed his lips; "But the captain's side"

Hearing this, Schweinsteiger was also full of sadness.

Tactical problems, form problems, game problems, they can all be solved.

But Barak, the second in 10,000 years, this kind of metaphysical problem, they really can't start.

Although they also know that it is a matter of probability.

But Ballack was a little too wicked, and how could they not be furious in the face of such an important match.

Moreover, Barak is the absolute core.

He was also a key factor in taking the lead in setting up Loew, and there was no way for them to substitute Ballack or not play.

For this reason, they can only be psychologically comforted.

On the other hand, Croatia is also preparing for the game in an orderly manner.

Compared to the German side, Croatian training is more targeted under the auspices of Van Sted Jak.

The Germans played on both wings.

Through Podolski and Schweinsteiger, he constantly pressed on the flanks.

Croatia, on the other hand, focuses on flying with one wing.

Sooke is the core!

He won't necessarily be locked on the left wing, but will be able to play anywhere up front.

All Croatia need to do is rely on passing to open the way for Suker to attack, or rather, to send the ball directly to Suker's feet.

Once Sooker receives the ball, the next step is to stab the German steel defence with their sharpest spears.

If it were someone else, this single-core offensive system would be a bit monotonous.

But Sooke is different!

Whether it's Bayern or Germany, Suker is very experienced.

Even, Vansterak thinks that the German team against Croatia, because of the relationship with Suke, Germany's combat power is naturally suppressed 1-2.

That's where nightmares come in!

Suker is the nightmare of most players in the German team!

Especially the Bayern players, who have slaughtered for two seasons in a row, can be regarded as determined to see that Suker's legs are not shaking.

Vansteak watched the training on the pitch, keeping his head down and writing something.

Bilic sneaked over.

He saw that Farnsteak's notebook was densely packed with lines, intertwined horizontally and vertically, intricately.

"Can you read what you're drawing?" Bilic couldn't help but complain.

You can't read this thing, can you?

"Just take a look, it's a concept map!" Vansteak didn't turn his head and kept looking at the pitch.

Bilic noticed that Vansteak's brow was furrowed, as if he was troubled.

"What are you thinking?" Bilic asked.

Vanstellak scratched his head; "I'm going to change formations!"

"Change formation?" Bilic was surprised; "We played very well in the last game!"

Vansteak nodded; 'We played really well, but against Germany we weren't calm enough.

"Theoretically, the Germans would have sent a lot of defence to limit Suker, and once I confined Suker to a certain position, it would make the Germans more comfortable."

Bilic was puzzled; "So what?"

Vansted asked rhetorically: "What is Germany most afraid of?" ”

"What are you most afraid of?"

"Or rather, which national team is the most restrained against the German team?"

Bilic didn't think about it; "Italy!"

"That's right!" Vansteak Road; "Italy's traditional chain defense + organizational retreat, which has made the German team suffer, coupled with Ancelotti's use of the forward position and multi-point attack, the two together can shake the German team's defense, and at the same time expand the role of Suker!"

Bilic understood.

"Let Suker play in the midfield?"

"That's right!"

Bilic tilted his head; "But didn't you say in the meeting that you were going to play them in midfield? Not confrontational? ”

"Hey~~~~," Vansteak sighed; "I was going to fight, but I overlooked one thing, Vukojevic was injured and Dujmović couldn't play Vukojevic's calm defense and wide running, so I'm going to make Nico. Kovac and Dujmovic are both responsible for sweeping at the back, and together they build a wall in front of the backline to prevent our backline from being exposed directly to the opposing strikers! ”

Vansterak is also very jealous, Simunic is guilty of the same problems in Croatia as he did in Milan.

After losing Gattuso's protection, Simunic was almost kicked into a sieve.

Therefore, one or two cushioning belts in the back position are very necessary.

"So, you're going to put on Ancelotti's Christmas tree formation?"

"Nope! The Christmas tree formation is strong in the four number 10 positions, and we have no one to make up for the remaining two number 10 positions except Suker and Modric, so we can only be a single striker, and our formation is 4-3-1-2! ”

Bilic's head buzzed.

He's also the manager, and although he's not that sensitive to tactics, Vansteak has explained so much that it's a fool to still not understand it.

This is a tactic to strengthen the central axis!

Luka Modric and Suker run through the central axis, responsible for the organization and tandem work of the front and back courts, respectively.

With the ability of these two people, once the wiring is made, the German team wants to surround and block, it will be really difficult.

Defensively, too, there are four defenders plus two defensive midfielders.

Dujmović and Nick. Kovac runs widely, creating a defensive buffer and creating a safe zone for the backline to react.

When attacking, the central axis is strong, and the two forwards are.

Bilic looked at Vansteak.

"Who are the two strikers?"

Vansteauk; "Mandzukic and Petrits!"

Two cannons!

Bilic grinned.

These are two rams and two walls.

Not only can it take on cities and land, but it can also help Suker cover it.

Insufficient offensive firepower?

Full-backs!

Srna, Pranic!

Straight up and straight down!

It can both open the corridor on the side and activate the ability to cross.

It can be said that this tactic is the absolute core No. 10 enhanced version of the tactic.

There is no outrageous core that is strong in the absolute sense and does not dare to play like this!

It is extremely a test of this core's ability to lead the team!

But Croatia has just such a super 10 that the whole football world is currently looking at!

Bilic silently retreated.

He was struck by this talented Dutchman!
