At the end of the first half, the score was 2-0, with England leading Germany by two goals.
This is probably something that no one expected before the game - I guess even England fans would not have imagined it, just look at their surprised expressions in the stands, although the fans wanted their team to win, but England fans did not expect England to be able to lead by two goals in the first half.
Yes, a two-goal lead at half-time, such an advantage is huge.
But looking at the half-time data, it is estimated that if you don't look at the score, no one would have thought that England could lead by two.
In the first half, whether it was possession, passes, or shots, the gap between the two teams of Germany and England was not large, and even the German team still had an advantage, and the result... England's two strikes resulted in two goals.
This was very frustrating for the German players and fans.
This made them feel that it was a crime of war, but that it was not good luck.
The camera gives a close-up of the two managers, with Gao Bo standing on the sidelines, applauding the players who had played 45 minutes, and Loew walking straight to the dressing room, clearly unhappy with the first half.
The camera then showed England's two goalscorers, Adam White and Jamie Vardy, and finally, a few of Germany's key players.
Thomas MΓΌller, Klose, Schweinsteiger, Kroos....
Everyone's face is not good-looking.
In the first half, the Germans didn't have any good chances, and their attackers naturally didn't get much room to play.
And what made them even more frustrating was that they were a little caught off guard by the two goals they conceded.
It was as if two huge rocks had suddenly smashed on the surface of a calm lake, with only two loud bangs and no ripples.
It makes them want to be angry, but they don't know where to spill it....

"The first half is over! England relied on Adam White's goal and Vardy's follow-up goal to temporarily lead Germany 2-0. Neither team had many chances in the first half, but England did manage to take their chances and they showed Germany what they could do! The whole German team didn't look happy when they came off the pitch, which was also a reflection of the first half of the German team. β
"Overall, the first half can be summed up like this. Both sides were calm at the start of the game and it looked like it was going to be a dull game, however, Gobo was clearly cunning, England suddenly came out of force and caught Germany off guard, as did the second goal, Gerrard's sudden forward long-range shot made Germany suffer. This situation is obviously unexpected, and the German team has to adjust at half-time, and it will not ......be easy for them to turn the tables from two goals down."
At halftime, the backstage broadcast of the TV station that broadcast the game was commenting on the first half of the game.
They were all relatively close in perspective, with England showing their cunning and attacking efficiency in the first half, while Germany were clearly unprepared for it.
......
In the dressing room of the German team, the atmosphere was somewhat solemn.
At least that's when Loew comes in.
Loew frowned at the German team's somewhat gloomy mood, and he knew that if he didn't turn the tide of emotion, no amount of tactical planning would be useless.
He coughed lightly twice, catching the players' attention.
'England had a two-goal lead over us, but it was just their luck to catch us off guard. I admit that we were a little unprepared in the first half, but the arrogance of the English people ended here, the gap between the two is indeed a bit difficult, but this is the World Cup champion, do you want to give up the championship?! β
Loew raised his voice sharply and roared.
"No!! In a pig's eye!! Klose stood up, and Loew's most trusted veteran shouted with a serious face.
"It's us!" More people stood up and shouted.
That's where veterans come in.
In difficult times, the experience of veterans, as well as their composure, can play an exemplary role!
In particular, Klose, who has participated in four World Cups, and the legend of the top scorer in the history of the World Cup can inject some confidence into this German team.
......
Seeing that the atmosphere was right, Loew was very satisfied and began to explain the tactics of the second half.
"England were very good at using the wings in the first half, and the first goal we conceded in the first half started with a passive defense on the wings, and our defense was led by the nose, which was the biggest mistake! In the second half, the whole team put pressure on England. β
"England are very good at using the width of the pitch and the two wings take turns to echo, which requires us to be tougher on the wings and more active and alert for the other players!"
"Attention Gerald! Don't let him take the ball easily, pester him for me! Loew said.
"Mario! I'll look for a chance to get you on the pitch in the second half!! Loew glanced at Mariogetze, "I'll give you absolute freedom in the second half, give me the England defence-" Loew paused, his expression a little hideous, "Mess it up!" β
Gotze didn't speak, just nodded vigorously! He clenched his fists, and Loew put him on the bench, which had already deflated him!
Loew has some confidence in his team's comeback in the second half, this team is the best team in history in his opinion, with an extremely balanced attack and defense, and the starters are all giants and even core stars!
As long as the team breaks out in the second half, a comeback is not a luxury!
.....
On the other side, England manager Gao Bo is reminding his players of Germany's comeback in the second half.
"The Germans are not going to sit still, the second half is going to be very tough!"
"The Germans won't give us more space and opportunities! Everyone should be mentally prepared to fight with them! β
"Steven Gerrard is back in the second half and Henderson and James Milner are on his toes!"
"Adam, Jamie, leave the offense for the second half to you, give me turns to attack their defense!"
"Rooney's position is retraced, there is a pivot transition between Adam and Jamie!"
"Jamie! Let the Germans taste your awesomeness! Let them fear you, and make them feel that their line of defense is in danger at all times! β
Gao Bo's expression is serious and his voice is loud!
His team is only forty-five minutes away from the World Championship, and he can't afford any mistakes!
