Volume 2 The Miracle of Huo Village Chapter 268 The suspense is still there

Hoffenheim has always been ahead of the lead and played better, the last few minutes after Li Huan scored Hoffenheim was unusual, suddenly changed his routine, gave up the defensive counterattack, and started an attack with Zenit, Hoffenheim's attack was already very strong, there were Gustavo and Weiss in the backfield to sweep, there were forwards and defenders in front of them to force together, Zenit was a little helpless by Hoffenheim for a while, they rarely came into contact with this kind of unforgiving team, the two-goal lead is no longer defensive but aggressive, By the time Zenit had recovered his breath, the first half had already ended.

Liu Yang laughed and said: "Hoffenheim is too dirty, like Brother Huan, he attacked fiercely in the last few minutes, so that the opponent had no chance to fight back." ”

Ren Feng said: "Huanzi has fought in free fighting, and this kid likes to knock out opponents in the last minute." ”

Sun Hai sat next to the two of them and said: "This is to hit the opponent's morale, prevent the opponent from fighting to the death, and at the same time let Advocaat at halftime not be able to figure out Hoffenheim's tactical play in the second half, Rangnick did a very good move, looking like a champion coach who is used to playing in the final." ”

At this time, the big screen on the scene began to play back the wonderful footage of the first half, the commentator summarized the tactical play and gains and losses of the two sides in the first half, and the on-site commentator Toms thought that the final of the League Cup was very well prepared by both sides, but Hoffenheim obviously had the upper hand in the tactical arrangement, and now it seems that the meeting between Ferguson and Li Huan before the game did not have any bad impact on Hoffenheim. And Zenit defeated Hoffenheim 4:2 in the first meeting, and played Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern four goals in a row, so that they had some light opponents against the Bundesliga team, and gave up their most powerful weapon against the Bundesliga team, so it is normal for Hoffenheim to score two goals in the first half. In the second half, Zenit still had to continue to attack, and the gaps in their backline would inevitably be used by Hoffenheim, if there were no major surprises, Li Huan's two goals in the first half basically determined the final ownership of the championship,

At the end of the half, all Hoffenheim were celebrating, as if they had already won the championship, and Marko pointed his fingers to the sky and kept repeating in German: "Thank you, God." ”

Advocaat happened to pass by him and said softly, "The game isn't over yet!" ”

Marco looked at Advocaat in surprise and stammered, "No...... Of course not, I know...... It's not over yet. Advocaat actually meant to speak to Rangnick next to him, and he continued: "My team is tenacious and the game is not over yet. ”

Rangnick said: "Of course, the game is not over yet. Zenit is a good team. But we're also tenacious. ”

Then Rangnick went to the dressing room, which was already full of jubilation, and the players were talking loudly about how to celebrate after the game, Copado said that he wanted his son to hold the Bertoni Cup, and Obsi said that he wanted to hold the trophy and take a picture with his German girlfriend. Eduardo regretted that his girlfriend did not come to the UK and could only watch TV at home.

Rangnick was a little worried, hugging his players one by one, thanking them for their hard work in the first half, and then telling them what Zenit's head coach Advocaat had said on his way to it.

Obasir first shouted, "Tenacious, aren't we tenacious?" With a two-goal lead, haven't we been beaten by our opponents? ”

Eduardo said, "They are delusional. ”

"Lee will continue to tell them with goals that we can play the four of them too. ”

Rangnick repeated, "The game isn't over yet, we've only grabbed one of the Bertoni Cups." ”

The hearts of the players were pulled from the future to reality by this sentence, and acting captain Comber asked: "Will the coach continue to defend in the second half?" ”

Simunic mused: "The opponent will definitely step up the attack and break our defense. ”

Rangnick said confidently: "No, the reason why the opponent lost in the first half was because they miscalculated our tactical style of play, and we underestimated the opponent with pride, and we continued to let them make mistakes in the second half." ”

In Zenit's dressing room, Advocaat's disciples were unconvinced, swearing and swearing, they took the initiative of the game, they had more possession than their opponents, they had more shots on goal, but it was not them who were ahead. Especially in the last five or six minutes, the humiliating feeling of being pressed by the opponent at the edge of the penalty area has always been suppressed in everyone's hearts.

"Not convinced, aren't you? The game is not over yet, so let's prove it to the fans to see who is stronger. Advocaat calmly leaned on the cabinet at the door of the locker room and said to his disciples.

'Of course, we will give them a little bit of colour in the second half, they scored two at Petrovski Stadium, but in the end it was us who won. Arshavin said.

The spiritual leader of the team, the core of the backfield, Tymoshchuk, said calmly: "Anger does not help, we should find our mistakes, the current Hoffenheim is not the Hoffenheim in St. Petersburg." ”

Advocaat said: "Tymoshchuk is right, we have to find the reason for the goal conceded, otherwise we will lose again. Okay, I'll give you five minutes to talk about it, and I'll come back in five minutes, and I'm sure you can see where we lost in the first half. ”

Advocaat walked out of the locker room, and there was a lively discussion in the locker room.

Five minutes later, Advocaat came in, and this time the Zenit players were free of the indignation and swearing they had just hauled, and everyone had expressions of regret on their faces, and of course they were eager to try.

Advocaat was very satisfied, and said: "I don't think I need to say any more, I am also at fault, we abandoned our magic weapon to restrain the Bundesliga team, defensive counterattack, and the opponent picked it up." Now that the opponent has the initiative, we have to take the risk of attacking, but I believe that no matter what tactics the opponent uses, we should be able to break down the opponent's goal, their back line is not very well organized, especially when it comes to attacking and defending, we have to play at this juncture of their game......"

In the second half of the game, the Zenit team did not start to attack and suffered a blow, Hoffenheim suddenly changed tactics, and carried out a full-court pressing, from the forward defender to the defender, everyone actively ran up, almost a man-to-man crazy pressing, the striker did not hesitate to chase from the opponent's penalty area to his own penalty area, the midfielder was fouled immediately after being passed, and the second half of the game began five minutes, except for a free kick in the backfield, Zenit was forced by Hoffenheim to not even have a chance in the half.

The fans in the stadium were dumbfounded, not knowing what kind of madness Hoffenheim, who was still playing defensive counterattacks in the first half, turned into a mad dog tactic.

The on-site commentator Thomas was surprised: "Hoffenheim is really incomprehensible, in the second half they actually adopted the tactics of pressing all over the field, and the conservatism in the first half completely became two teams, but such Hoffenheim is the real Hoffenheim, typical Hoffenheim, the game will definitely become more beautiful than the first half." ”

Sina's commentator said that Huang Jian thought: "Hoffenheim's changes in the second half are quite powerful, Zenit was slapped anyway, the first half was guarded by the opponent, and the second half was attacked by the opponent again, Rangnick's sudden transformation into a master tactician is the second highlight of today's game, of course, we all know what the first highlight is, Li Huan has been automatically ignored by the fans because of his long-term glow." ”

Advocaat set everything up in the dressing room to force his way through Hoffenheim's goal, only to find out that he couldn't even see the opponent's goal after the game. Advocaat, who had always been able to keep his composure, was also a little angry at the moment, and kept shouting loudly into the stadium.

"Timoshchuk shouts! Keep the ball in check! Connect faster! “

"Protect Hill's side a lot, he's not doing well. Once Li Huan approaches with the ball, the midfielders pay attention to the protection next to them. “

"Look at Li Huan and find out where he is. As soon as he comes up to catch the ball, kick it away! ”……

Compared with Advocaat's anxiety, Rangnick is a lot more leisurely, with two balls in hand, which is equivalent to having two life-savers, and he is not afraid of mistakes, which is the reason why he dares to fight with the opponent in the second half, Rangnick still does not believe that Hoffenheim's attack will not be able to beat Zenit, and at the same time he is not willing to win the championship with defensive counterattacks. After all, he started out with attacking football.

Hoffenheim's players have also suppressed half the game, they have become accustomed to pressing the opponent to play, even Bayern was crushed under their bodies, although they scored two in the first half, but they are still uncomfortable mentally, and now they are like wild horses with the reins, all the players are desperately running and pressing.

For five minutes, Zenit did not pass the half.

Ten minutes later, Zenit still didn't have a shot on goal.

In the 12th minute, Rangnick replaced the physically exhausted Copado with Demba Ba, and Demba Ba's comeback made the fans in the stadium very happy, and they all applauded him warmly.

In 15 minutes, the storm suddenly changed. Zenit, who did not have a chance to shoot in the second half, suddenly launched a lightning-fast counterattack, Li Huan's bottom cross was pushed out, Timoshchuk did not stop with his big foot, and the long pass was found by Arshavin, who had not yet returned, and Eduardo's swoop did not have time, but he and Timoshchuk still collided together.

Arshavin stopped the ball on his chest and ran down the side, Li Huan turned around and chased it again, no matter how fast he was, the ball could not run fast, and at this moment he could only watch Weiss's performance.

Weiss rushed over, and he went straight to Arshavin, ready to fight for a foul to stop the ball.

But Arshavin's speed had already soared, and one man passed the ball and left Weiss behind, and Weiss didn't even have a chance to foul. Arshavin looked like he was about to burst into the ribs of the box, but suddenly he flicked the ball to the bottom line, shook off Simunich, who was recovering the defense, and then volleyed hard from a tight angle in the face of Hieldebrand. Changed the score to 1:2.

After the goal, Arshavin was ecstatic and made the classic celebration of holding the baby in both hands on the sidelines. The Zenit players also rushed over excitedly to hug the baby with him on the sidelines.

The Russian fans in the stands had been watching Arshavin without blinking, and when the ball flew into the net, they all jumped up and clapped desperately at Arshavin and shouted, "Andrey! Andre! ”

Weiss looked at Li Huan with a guilty face, "His speed is completely up, I didn't stop him." ”

Li Huan waved his hand and said, "The European champion is not so easy, don't worry, we are still one goal ahead." ”

Huang Jianxiang sighed again and again, and said, "Rangnick, why is he in a hurry to change people, can't Kopado support it anymore?" The rhythm of the game is disrupted, it looks like it's to take care of Demba Ba and see what you do next. Arshavin deserves to be a talented player, and this goal is completely a reflection of his personal ability, so Arshavin is worthy of Li Huan's opponent and worthy of the media hype. It's the goals and attacks like that that belong to Zenit. Well, the game is tense again, those who have heart problems, those who are timid, the old men and the old ladies are careful, prepare first-aid medicine......"

The Hoffenheim fans in the stands first became nervous, and many people sighed incessantly, Li Bing frowned and said, "It's a goal again, isn't this not for me to watch the game?" Nan Nan, I'll lie down for a while, and you will call me again when we score a goal. ”

Ren Feng waved his arms angrily and shouted, "Weiss and Simunich are really fucking shit, neither of them stopped the polar bear's breakthrough." ”

Advocaat jumped up excitedly, rubbed the assistant coach's face desperately, and said: "We are alive again, we are alive again, Andre has scored!" ”

The assistant coach also kept patting Advocaat, "Yes, we have another chance, the opponent is going to be nervous, one more in, another one is going to collapse." ”

Rangnick frowned, he didn't think that this was the result of his substitution, who would have thought that the play of a talented player would have been like this, Li Huan has always assisted like this, and Weiss has always made up for the defense, and Simunic has also completely made up for the defense in place, it can only be said that Arshavin's personal ability is too strong.

Looking at the celebratory opponent, Rangnick spat fiercely and said to Sarihovic: "You go warm up!" Get ready to play! ”

"Me?" Sarihovic was stunned for a moment, although Rangnick told him that he must have a chance to play, but he didn't expect to play at this sensitive time.

"That's right! Don't let them get carried away. Rangnick said coldly.

Zeidler objected: "Ralph, isn't it a bit inappropriate to go to Sarichovic at this time, who to replace, Weiss, or Obasi?" ”

Rangnick did not lose his mind and said: "Obasi, Weiss has to stay on the pitch unless Obasi can satisfy me in the past five minutes. ”
