Chapter 866: See the Move

"Mr. Kuhn, it's a pleasure to see you again at People's Park!"

Yang Huan was in the chairman's stand and personally greeted Claude Michael Kuhn who came out of the elevator.

The white-haired old man had a smile on his face, and anyone who saw it could perceive his joy.

Over the years, Kuhn has rarely appeared at the People's Park, especially in the past year or two, when the team's results have deteriorated, and he has preferred to stay in Switzerland on the grounds of poor physical condition.

But now, as soon as Kerkhoff and others get off the stage, he immediately returns to the People's Park stadium, this coming and going, is indeed enough to provoke reverie, is anyone really believe that it is just because of the north-south duel between Hamburg and Bayern Munich?

What's even more interesting is that some people have long noticed that almost all the fan representatives of the Hamburg team, as well as those political and business celebrities who can have a relationship with Hamburg, appeared in the chairman's stand at the People's Park Stadium this time.

What does this mean?

This almost represents their support for Yang Huan!

In the chairman's stand, the host and guests greeted each other politely, and soon found their seats to sit down.

Because, the players of both teams have finished their rest and returned to the stadium.

Yang Huan also got the starting lineup list of the two teams for the first time.

"It seems that this time Bayern Munich is a sure winner!" Kuhn glanced at the roster and said with a smile.

Alexander Otto also nodded, but his tone was a little unconvinced, "Who said it wasn't?" If we don't have the certainty of winning, how can we say that we are also second in the league, but they have a back three tactics? ”

Bayern Munich's starting lineup for this game is a bit like a three-three-four-one-team formation.

The goalkeeper is Reina, and the backline is Dante, Xavi Martinez and Boateng.

The midfield trio is Thiago, Xavi Alonso and Lahm.

In the front, Lewandowski was the arrow, Ribery and Robben were on the left and right wings, and Thomas Muller was in the middle.

Anyone who looks at it knows that this set of tactics is mainly attacking.

The midfield combination of Thiago, Xavi Alonso and Lahm is known for possession.

As for the front, Ribery and Robben flew on the wings, which is also the high-end configuration of Bayern Munich this season.

The only relatively big problem is Lewandowski.

After the Bundesliga striker switched from Dortmund to Bayern Munich this season, he has not been able to integrate into Bayern Munich's tactics for the time being, but with Lewandowski's ability, who dares to underestimate it?

The fact that such a player can be on the pitch is a great deterrent in itself.

Thomas Tuchel's Hamburg tactics were a four-three-three.

The goalkeeper is Oblak, the back line is Osterolak, Emre Can, Alderweireld and Dickmeier from left to right, the midfield trio is Clasi, Weigel and Baddeley, and the front three are Douglas Costa, Abubakar and Kingsley Koeman.

Compared with Bayern Munich's lineup, which is obviously inclined to attack and full of firepower, the Hamburg team's four-three-three does not have too many surprises, and it is estimated that even the starting lineup has been guessed.

This is also the reason why Yang Huan is not very optimistic about the future prospects of Hamburg.

To put it bluntly, Hamburg only has one starting lineup to use, and once there is an injury, or the team's tactics are restrained, then the overall strength of Hamburg will be greatly affected.

As for the youngsters such as Gaudino, Hojbjerg, Kimmich, Sussex, Sane and Januzaj, they have the potential and the strength is not bad, but they are a little more tender when it comes to playing strong dialogues.

At the end of the day, Tuchel is not a god.

As a head coach, it is not easy to adjust a main lineup from a squad that has seen great turmoil in almost every position in just one summer of preparation.

What's more, Tuchel is also actively giving young players the opportunity to perform.

Youngsters like Gaudino, Hojbjerg, Januzaj and Sane have each made several appearances.

The centre-back Jedvaj has started one or two games, which proves that Tuchel is interested in tweaking his new players to enrich his squad's tactics, but these will take more time and will not be achieved overnight.

"Bayern Munich does have this kind of strength, and they also have this kind of confidence!" Yang Huan said lightly.

This kind of domineering created by dominating the Bundesliga for a long time is not something that any team can have.

And in many key moments, this domineering often brings a bonus aura to the team.

This is not fantasy or science fiction at all, but a strong self-confidence.

In fact, at the beginning of the game, Bayern Munich took the initiative to launch an offensive, with a midfield of Thiago, Xavi Alonso and Lahm, firmly controlled the game and took the initiative.

The Hamburg team, on the other hand, has been actively pressing and pressing from the beginning, not afraid of Bayern Munich's strong offensive firepower, but still adopting the high-post defensive tactics that the team is used to and insisting on in the past.

This is also the foundation of An'an's life.

Because, Hamburg's tactics are based on a high system, if you retreat, then you don't need Bayern Munich, even if it is a relegation team in the Bundesliga, it is estimated that you can kill Hamburg.

Therefore, no matter how big the difference in strength is, the hamburger can only be pressed out.

The two sides were a hard-nosed confrontation with Maimang, and the game entered a white-hot heat from the beginning, which was very exciting to watch.

Bayern Munich firmly controlled the ball, while Hamburg used aggressive running and pressing to contain Bayern Munich's attack, so the pace of the game was fast and the ball changed hands back and forth.

'Thomas Tuchel is a really good manager, well organised defensively and well targeted. Kuhn had only been watching it for less than a few minutes, but he was already appreciatively boasting.

As a long-time fan who has watched football for decades, he can always see the way out quickly.

"yes!" Yang Huan nodded, "The three players in the midfield are still defense-oriented, Clasea and Baddeley attach great importance to the protection of the ribs when defending, Weigel is not the kind of standing midfielder, he prefers to be close to his teammates, the three midfielders form a wall, Bayern Munich can not attack the big penalty area at all." ”

Bayern Munich attacked a couple of times after the opening, and although they were able to reach the 30-metre area almost every time, it was difficult to get the ball into the box, because Hamburg was well protected on both ribs.

Lewandowski is not in good form, Thomas Muller is not good at advancing with the ball, and the two ribs are an important means for Bayern Munich to attack in the 30-meter area, so Tuchel focused on pinching the two ribs to block Ribery and Robben.

Although these are two superstars, if they are a pair of two, they don't have much chance.

Speaking of which, Bayern Munich's midfield is also quite interesting.

The combination of Thiago, Lahm and Xavi Alonso was indeed quite good in control, but it didn't get back in the attack.

Therefore, Tuchel's move choked both ribs, and Bayern Munich's attack was half undone.

And it can be seen that this set of tactics of Hamburg has been rehearsed, and the players are very skillful and organized, advancing and retreating in a measured manner, without the slightest sign of panic.

That's why Kuhn said Tuchel is a pretty good manager.

"Then we're going to keep it like this?" Alexander Otto asked.

Yang Huan glanced at him, this guy has watched the ball for decades, but he hasn't grown much.

"It's not that simple, Guardiola will adjust soon."

"So what do we do?" Alexander Otto asked again.

"Chilled!" Yang Huan laughed.

Kuhn nodded and sighed, "Yes, our skills are not as good as others, we can only passively see the moves, but adjusting the tactics on the spot is a double-edged sword, which may hurt the enemy, but it may also expose our weaknesses." ”

"Yes, so, we have to wait."

Pep Guardiola made his first on-the-spot adjustment in the 10th minute.

After the adjustment, there was a very interesting change in that Lewandowski moved closer to the right to find Robben, while Thomas Muller leaned to the left and went to Ribery to link.

The purpose of this adjustment is to give full play to the individual strengths of the players and to cut through the ribs of the Hamburg team.

Not to mention, Pep Guardiola's adjustment will threaten Bayern Munich's attack.

Twice in quick succession into the Hamburg penalty area, once with Arjen Robben's shot deflected.

Another time it was Thomas Mueller's kick that was held by Oblak.

Although they failed to score on either occasion, they also created enough threats, and at the same time woke up the burgers, who are not as good as others!

Whether it is in terms of overall strength or overall tactics, Hamburg has a considerable gap with Bayern Munich.

But just as Bayern Munich's offensive was on the rise, Tuchel made an immediate change.

Unlike Pep Guardiola's adjustments, which had an immediate effect, Tuchel's adjustments were like mud cows in the sea, bottomless.

Bayern Munich once again attacked the front of the Hamburg penalty area.

Ribery picked up the ball but was caught by Dickmeier and Baddeley at the same time to pass the ball to Thomas Muller, but Alderweireld suddenly stepped up and broke the ball.

Weigel, who has been stationed at the top of the arc of the penalty area, suddenly rushed forward, and Bayern Munich did not have even one player in the middle of the entire frontfield, so the ball was picked up by Weigel.

As soon as he got the ball, Weigel made a diagonal pass.

The whole process is actually not fast, but because Thomas Muller and Lewandowski are both pulled to the ribs, Bayern Munich has no one in the middle of the front field at all, and can make a counter-attack on the spot after conceding the ball in the first place.

Weigel's pass went straight past the midfield and fell to the left side of the front.

Douglas Costa sprinted forward quickly to meet the incoming ball and unloaded it with his left foot in front of him.

By this time, he had already entered the 30-meter zone of Bayern Munich, but he was not in a hurry at all.

Jerome Boateng leaned in, but did not get close at the first time, but kept a certain distance.

Douglas Costa didn't move forward with the ball and waited for his team-mates in the middle and on the right to follow.

Coming to the left side of the Bayern Munich penalty area, the Brazilian finally decided to play.

I saw him dribbling the ball and preparing to cut into the penalty area, attracting Boateng to grab it, a skillful and eye-catching bicycle action, after deceiving Boateng to kick, he took the ball to the bottom line.

It was a beautiful breakthrough that allowed Douglas Costa to shake off Boateng, catch up with the ball, and then cross it into the box.

The ball landed right at the edge of the small penalty area, the area where the goalkeeper couldn't hold it the most.

However, rushing up from behind, like a rampaging tank, Aboubakar crashed into the Bayern Munich penalty area, preempted Xavi Martinez, leaped high and headed home.

The ball hit Aboubakar's head, turned in a direction and crashed into the Bayern Munich goal.

At this moment, everyone in the entire People's Park stadium was stunned!
