Volume II: The Miracle of Huo Village, Chapter 177: The Latin School of Europe
, quaNBen, there will hardly be fans in China. There will also be no live broadcast on TV, but because of Li Huan, after the draw. Coincidentally, the major local stations kept previewing this game. Rolling advertisements and screen advertisements are bombarded several times a day, so that many children who don't play football and don't know how to play football have to point to Li Huan and ask their parents what movie he is acting in.
On the day of the match, their best combination Tao Wei and Duan Xuan were sent to broadcast the match. The best is. Coincidentally, in this unit, these two people are already the best, with a normal IQ, sound limbs, and a very harmonious commentary, which is well received by the superiors.
may feel that today's game is very important for Hoffenheim, Duan Xuan is dressed very neatly today, with a straight suit and a tie. However, it was very distressing to listen to him and Tao Wei explain the more conservative game together, because the fans had just been hypnotized by the game and them, and Duan Xuan woke up the fans' dreams in a flash. Letting you sleep is not watching either.
Before the game started, Duan Xuan had already been shocked twice, one was that Romanian head coach Portuka appeared in the stands, and the other was Li Huan who appeared from the players' tunnel with the team. Then Duan Xuan began to worry that the referee of the game, the Polish Marek, would favor Romania, because they are all Eastern Europeans, Tao Wei often explains the Bundesliga, and knows more than Duan Xuan, saying: "Although Poland is from Eastern Europe, they are closer to Germany, and many Poles have joined the German team to play games." Podolski, Kuranj, and Klose were all Poles. ”
Hoffenheim still fielded an attack-oriented lineup in front of three strikers. Behind them were Sarihovic and Eduardo, and there was only one full-time defender in midfield. It's their midfielder Gustavo. Rapid Bucharest, on the other hand, lined up with a solid formation, with two of the four midfielders up front and two at the back.
Once the game started, the Hoffenheim players rushed over as fast as they did in the Bundesliga. Want to keep the players of Rapid Bucharest under their own half. However, the Rapid Bucharest players were prepared for Hoffenheim's pressing, and they were typical of Romanian play. Flexible. Accurate and consistent, their players have been working together for many years, using skillful ball control and coordination. It is often possible to avoid the Hoffenheim defense in the middle and carry the ball to the feet of the striker to attack. At the back, Bergedi transmitted the essence of Italian defense to the Romanian players, and their chain defense and mutual defense were very good, like a snake in the mountains, hitting its head and tail and biting it again. Playing his middle, head and tail come together to defend, this kind of chain defense does not require many players, all it needs is the tacit understanding of the players.
The first half opened about a little over ten minutes. Duan Taowei expressed concern about Hoffenheim's style of play, saying: "Hoffenheim's fast pressing style of play has no effect on the Bucharest Rapid team, the players of the Bucharest Rapid team are not high but flexible, and the ball control at their feet is good, Hoffenheim's players are difficult to break the ball from their feet, while the counterattack of the Bucharest Rapid team is very sharp, their forwards Sersinha and Buga have not shrunk back to the defense, and have been pressing in front." After receiving a pass from a team-mate, he used his personal skills to attack Hoffenheim's defence, which made Hoffenheim's midfielders and defenders very passive, and they were not used to playing against the law. ”
Duan Xuan also expressed concern about Hoffenheim. He is not from a professional background like Tao Wei, he just likes to look at the data, "Hoffenheim was made two free kicks in the front court by the opponent in the first ten minutes, fortunately he did not receive a yellow card, otherwise the next game would be even more difficult to play, but this is a very dangerous thing, if the Bucharest Rapid team has a player like Li Huan, they are now two goals ahead." ”
Rangnick was not unaware of Romania's style of play, he had also practiced the Rapid team's attacking mode many times before the game, and the players had also watched a lot of videos of the Rapid Bucharest team, and he thought that the players should know something about this opponent. It should be able to cope with it, but I didn't expect that after actually going on the field, these players still can't adapt to the Romanian's style of play, the forward line can't break through the opponent's defense, and the back line can't withstand the opponent's impact. Seeing that he was in the limelight, this made Rangnick's heart a little anxious. He kept demonstrating on the tactical board, hoping to find a good way to attack and defend
Hoffenheim were full of anxiety up and down, but their opponents Rapid Bucharest were just as nervous and anxious, even more nervous than them, because they had never faced a team that could run so well and netted as well as Hoffenheim. In the eyes of outsiders, they easily use short passes to match the siege tactics of Hoffenheim players, but in fact, Rapid Bucharest is also tackled by Hoffenheim a lot, and many times there is a big difference between getting rid of Hoffenheim's defense and being tackled
In the opening ten minutes, Li Huan basically had no assists. He has been observing the style of play of this European Latin team, no matter in his previous life or in this life, Li Huan has never really played against this type of football. As a defender, stability is the first, only to ensure the safety of the back line to assist, if the offense is more important than the defense, he should not stand in the position of the defender, although there are many critics, reporters and fans in the outside world Li Huan called a defender who does not do his job, but Li Huan himself does not admit it, although he has scored seven goals, but now no team has broken through from his side, he can proudly claim that he is first a defender, and then one, A defender who can score goals.
The so-called European Latin school refers to a school of high integration between European school and South American school, which is technically integrated into the skillful, delicate, delicate and changeable school of South America; Tactically, the European faction is admired for its speed, simplicity, and effectiveness. Many fans thought that the Latin faction in Europe was represented by Italy, France, Portugal and Spain. In fact, this is a misreading, Portuguese and Spanish are pure Latin style of play. The European Latin faction should refer to the former Yugoslavia, the Czech Republic, Romania and Russia, while the Netherlands, Germany, and England should belong to the fierce and fierce and tenacious European style of play, as for Italy, it is very different, they are not like the four, if you want to call them accurately, he should also belong to the Latin faction, but it is a lewd Latin faction, not an elegant Latin faction like Spain.
Hoffenheim has never been abroad, the opponents are fierce and fierce European style of play, and now they have encountered the flexible, simple and practical European Latin school is very restricted, their physical fighting spirit is not lacking, but their oppression and pressing in the face of the Bucharest Rapid team is like five or six big men to catch loaches, empty strength but never catch those few small loaches, because they are too slippery, and accidentally they hit the front, They form a situation where they face the defenders directly.
Li Huan saw this situation and did not dare to assist easily, in the first ten minutes he often stepped forward to the middle to supplement his teammates, and it was Li Huan's fast and agile defense and steals that did not let the Bucharest Rapid team players attack in the way, Jaisler, Gustavo and Kang Pai are such big guys, it is difficult to block two or three flexible and tacit Romanian attacking players.
Li Huan is a corkscrew in Hoffenheim, is the winner and loser, Li Huan does not assist, Hoffenheim will be difficult to open the situation, although Hoffenheim's three strikers Ibisevic, Demba Ba and Obasi are very strong, and their feet are not rough, but they are facing the defense line trained by the Italian coach. It's hard to give him as many chances to score as the Germans, and it's good for the top Italian teams to give their opponents three chances in a game, and it takes a top striker to take advantage of that fleeting opportunity. The Hoffenheim commentator at the scene watched anxiously, and couldn't stop telling the guests why Li Huan didn't assist, Hoffenheim didn't rely on defense to win the world.
Under the guidance of the commentator, the Hoffenheim fans at the scene were chanting Li Huan's name and letting Li Huan assist in the goal. No matter how professional the fans are, they are definitely not as thorough as the players and coaches who understand the game thoroughly, they are more interested in scoring goals and a refreshing moment of victory, and they all hope that Li Huan can assist. I didn't think about what kind of situation it would be like if Li Huan was not in the backline.
Although Rangnick and Li Huan have only been together for more than a year, he knows this Chinese disciple very well, calm and bold, and by no means a timid person, he must feel that the back line is not safe enough if he doesn't assist, and he is waiting for the opportunity, so although the fans in the stadium are shouting Li Huan's name like a tsunami, he did not urge Li Huan to press. The game was ninety minutes and he couldn't rush. You can't rush against an Italian coach. In European football, it has always been said that Germany beats England, Britain beats Italy, and Italy beats Germany. This statement is not accidental, Italy's reinforced concrete defense, like a poisonous snake spitting letters, is the German team's biggest fear, even more headache for the Germans than against Spain and Portugal, who are in the Latin faction.
Li Huan still kept a clear head in the cries of more than 20,000 fans, and he still had no assists. Waiting, he is still waiting to catch the weakness of the opponent's left-back Pozovic and waiting for the best chance to come.
