, quanbeN, once again at the Pailin Olympic Stadium. Hoffenheim has become famous all over the world, the streets and alleys are full of portraits of Hoffenheim players, and in a year, countless Hoffenheim fans and fan goods stores have sprung up, wearing Hoffenheim blue jerseys and holding the "Hoffenheim Champion" flag, which is a stark contrast to the sea and flames with Bayern Munich fans in red jerseys.

Hoffenheim a year ago were in the huge shadow of Bundesliga champions Stuttgart, and they were foils. is the background, many people think that they are here to witness Stuttgart crowned the double, and now they are facing the Bundesliga giant Bayern Munich has still become the favorite team to win the championship, a year ago Li Huan, Eduardo, Ibisevic and others were still small characters in the Bundesliga, a year later, Li Huan entered the top 50 of the European Golden Ball Award and the World Footballer, and he also became the county price of 50 million.

A lot has changed in a year, but all Hoffenheemei fans hope that there is one thing that will never change, and that is the ownership of the championship.

Because the team in the German Cup final is Bayern, which has a world influence, and Hoffenheim, a super dark horse that shocked the world, there are countless fans, reporters and celebrities from all over the world who come to watch the game, so that the VIP box of the Olympic Stadium, which can accommodate more than 70,000 people, cannot even be reserved. President of the German Football Association Zwanzig, Bayern Triumvirate Beckengun, Rummenigge, Hoeness. The Hoffenheim triumvirate Hope, Rothouse, and Schendelmeizer all came to watch the game. There were also two other striking figures in the stands, who, despite their efforts to avoid the gaze of others, did not escape the reporters' cameras. One of these two is Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich and the other is Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger.

The presence of the two celebrities surprised fans and journalists alike, as they had nothing to do with the German Cup final and had not heard of them being fans of German football. So everyone realized that these two might have come to observe the players, and in Abramovich's eyes, there were only three players in the two teams, Ribery, Lahm and Li Huan. Many fans speculated that Abramovich had come to observe Li Huan, with Chelsea's deep pockets. They have the strength and the best to buy Li Huan.

The purpose of Wenger's arrival was clearly confusing to everyone, and Wenger was nicknamed by fans because he only likes to buy young people with great potential and develop them into superstars. And then sell it. It is difficult for him to come to the Olympic Stadium for Li Huan, who is worth 5 million, and Ribery, who is worth about 30 million.

Sauer came to the commentary scene as a guest, and after he saw Wenger, he said with a smile: "Could it be that our professor saw which little Zhengtai again, Bayern and Hoffenheim have very outstanding young people, and there are two geniuses in the nineties, Stref from Hoffenheim and Tony from Bayern." Kroos' future is very ambitious, but instead of spending a lot of money on the cultivation of reserve talents, Wenger should buy a Li Huan. Sauer believes that what Arsenal lacks now is a decisive scorer, and Li Huan can help Arsenal complete their long-cherished wish that they have not completed.

The referee for the match was Meyer. The referee is a lucky star for Bayern Munich, who last played in the German Cup final when they won their third German Cup title with a win over Schalke.

With the referee's whistle, the much-anticipated game kicked off.

Bayern Munich have made a lot of changes to the lineup compared to the first time they played Hoffenheim, the most obvious is that the original two strikers have become three forwards, Klose is on the bench, and the fast Schroudruff and the physical and skilled Prince Podolski appear in the front line. They are separated on both sides of Tony, the purpose is to suppress Hoffenheim's wing attack, and the appearance of two wingers can be high school striker Toney's cross, can also cut inside to shoot, Bayern's change is a bit of a steal Hoffenheim, this is also the biggest change Heathfield made for Hoffenheim, Ribery was put in the position of the forward midfielder is Heathfield's second, change, the Frenchman's technique is very good, he can play both full-back and forward midfield.

In this way, Bayern Munich's formation becomes chin, which is not a common formation for Bayern, this formation is a change of formation to deal with Hoffenheim.

Hoffenheim did not change much from the line-up for the last game against Bayern, with only the injured Jaisler changing to Simunic and Ibisevic sitting on the bench as he recovered from injury. Wellington came in place of him on the left.

The two teams are also familiar with each other, and Hoffenheim, who is full of confidence, launched a fierce attack on Bayern. And the mountain gate played very calmly, unhurriedly coping with Hoffenheim's attack, but the two of them. Wingers Schwedrav and Podolski were clearly back into midfield when Hoffenheim attacked, with only Toney up front.

Physically strong and fast, Podolski has been unaccustomed since he arrived at Bayern Munich from Cologne. It's almost a season, and he hasn't scored three goals in the season, and he almost sits on the bench in the shadow of Klose and Toney, but because Heathfield has to deal with Li Huan, Podolski got rid of the fate of being a substitute and became the main force.

Although Podolsky's shooting skills are average and his skills are not very good, Weiss has no way to deal with him, because Podolsky is better than Weiss in terms of body and speed, and Weiss can deal with Ribery whose skills are far better than his Ribery. But it was eaten to death by Podolsky, which can be regarded as one thing to one thing.

Li Huan stepped forward to assist at the beginning, but saw that Podolsky was staring at him very closely, and after he went up, Weiss couldn't withstand Podolski's impact in the backfield. Allowing Podolski to echo Ribery on the wing and in the forward midfield position, the two consecutive backballs in the middle of the side caused great difficulties for Hoffenheim's defense, but fortunately with the experienced Simunic in the central defender position, and the goalkeeper with Hildebrand, Hoffenheim's defensive strength increased greatly, and Ribery and Toney did not knock on the Hoffenheim defense.

On the other side, Schlaudruff is the original Yashen player, after being acquired by Bayern Munich, he has the same disease as Podolski, and can only sit on the bench, but his strength is not worse than Podolski, he and Klose, Toney's characteristics are also different, his dribbling and speed are his lethal weapons, and his attack on the side keeps Ibertsberg busy, and he has no time to attack.

Rangnick soon found that the opponent's new tactics restrained Hoffenheim, and the attack of the two full-backs could not be realized, while Bayern Munich's backfield looked three-dimensional because the two midfielders, Van Bommel and Ze Roberto, rarely assisted. Their area-to-man defence at the edge of their own box made it difficult for Hoffenheim's Eduardo, Demba Ba and Obasi to create an attacking threat.

The German league has long been in vogue with a back four. But it's mainly zone defense, and it's rare to use a combination of zone and man to man defense" because zone man defense has a big hole, and one person keeps up with the striker who is staring at the opposition. The space left behind needs to be filled by someone else, and at the edge of the penalty area it is usually filled by another centre-back or a wing-back next to him, and the place left by the centre-back or full-back is finally filled by his own midfielder.

In this way, even if "one person makes a mistake", there are other people who can come up to the top. Such a zone defense is good in theory.

But on the other hand, this kind of defensive system is too complicated, and there are many people involved in football. In one. There are so many times of filling in the area, and the opponent continues to pass the ball, and the defensive players themselves will get dizzy, and it is difficult to achieve without high tactical literacy and years of tacit cooperation. Even if they have encountered a team like La Liga Barcelona for many years, the defensive holes are still full of flaws, so few teams use them.

However, Bayern's zone-to-man defensive tactics today are different from the traditional zone-to-man tactics.

Because Hoffenheim's strikers are in front of the penalty area, it's easy to get confused with the area pulling. Heathfield's approach to this tactic is to reduce the attack with two midfielders to focus on man-marking. Making defenders' responsibilities more "clear" is similar to the traditional German free man tactics. The Liberty tactic sets up two marking central defenders to focus on the opposing striker, and if the marking defense is in danger, the libero will immediately come over to help the defense. In this way, only the person who is marking is responsible for marking people, and the person who protects is only responsible for assisting in defense. The task is clearer and more singular. However, the two-back man-marking tactic is safer than the free man tactic, so that the backline will not be easily penetrated by the opponent when the person inserts and cannot come back because of one.

In the face of Heathfield's variant of the free man tactics, Hoffenheim's players did not know how to deal with them, their repeated impacts, repeated runs but always could not find Bayern's vacancy, but Bayern's counterattack made Hoffenheim suffer because of two speed wingers.

Rangnick was also confused about this tactic for a while. He is not a coach with excellent tactical command like Mourinho, Rangnick is better at practice and strategy, and his ability to adapt to changes is not strong, Rangnick did not react for a while, just silently observed Bayern Munich's style of play, and thought hard about how to deal with it.
