Chapter 255: The Battle of the Anglo-German War (3).
Lao Li didn't know what the handsome uncle Loew thought!
The sullen man is enjoying the adoring gaze of the old madman Venables, when Li Tongfan recruited Joe Hart into the national team, the old madman also bluntly objected, Venables believes that young people in other positions can be trusted, but the goalkeeper position is too special in England, if it is not done well, it will become a negative example, and the future generations will "Fang...... Of course, Li Tongfan knows that the old madman is thinking about his prestige in the national team, because as long as he makes any mistakes in the position of national team coach, he will be scolded by the pervasive English paparazzi...... But Lao Li is not worried about this!
Because the upgraded FM2008 scouting tool clearly Lao Li, Joe Hart has the potential of 182, although the current ability of 130 is a little lower, but the cultivation is definitely the main figure of the giants...... What's more, in the report of the football world, 20-year-old Joe Hart also has a gorgeous surname that cannot be ignored - the player with the surname of the competition!
This rare surname can allow Li Tongfan to use him in the Anglo-German war with confidence, anyway, there is a fm2008 game prediction ahead, Joe Hart's performance in the prediction is excellent, it doesn't hurt to give the little guy a rare opportunity to exercise, and Lao Li's intentions are far more than that...... On the field!
After the German team couldn't attack for a long time, it recovered slightly, and the initiative on the field fell to the feet of the England team!
Lee Tong-fan is also constantly adjusting the tactics of the England team on the sidelines!
Frank Lampard didn't seem to be able to play his long-range shot after being pushed into the midfield position, and Gerrard was much less of a threat on the flanks than he was in the middle, and the problem of double Germany still hasn't been solved in the Lee national team!
Frank Lampard dropped back from the midfield position to the midfield (MC) area, while David Beckham dropped back to form a double midfield with Gareth Barry, so that the Germans had fewer long-range chances at the edge of the England penalty area!
At the same time, Gerrard's range of activity slowly extended from the flanks to the midfield, and several long-range shots from the Liverpool team after returning to the middle made Hildebrand break out in a cold sweat!
Such a combination of two Germans is more powerful than the 4-1-3-1-1 formation at the beginning, but it still does not meet Li Tongfan's expectations, everyone knows that the combination of these two super first-class midfielders who can score 20+ goals in a single season should not be only so powerful!
Li Tongfan stood on the sidelines and pondered the root of the problem!
In front of the German coach's bench!
After a series of gestures, the captain Michel Ballack, who controlled the team's ball and rhythm, began to frequently split the ball on both sides, while Piggy Schweinsteiger moved to the side, and Lahm and Schultz repeatedly attacked the England wings, firmly pinning the two assist maniacs of Philips Neville and Ashley Cole in their own penalty area!
Through more than 30 minutes of play in the first half, Loew keenly noticed that the center-back combination of England's John Terry and Anton Ferdinand was not very tacit, and this was an opportunity that could be exploited!
The Germans began to threaten England's goal with simple and direct crosses from the wings, with Klose and Podolski both excellent headers, and soon the Germans created several scoring chances!
The two teams played offensive football, and the fans in the stands and in front of the TV watched with a thrill!
“…… The managers of both sides are battling it out, and it's a battle of wits and patience! Maniac Lee was known for his on-the-spot command during his time at Real Madrid, and his substitutions in games often had an immediate effect, so much so that sometimes one has to admit that the 23-year-old has a god-like insight into the game, which is one of the sources of the nickname "God on the sidelines......"
Seist, the on-site commentator, was fully engaged in the game: "Germany coach Loew is one of only a few young coaches in football today to be crowned a master tactician, and the former assistant Klinsmann coach has an extraordinary understanding and execution of football...... Loew has changed his team's attacking tactics three or four times since the start of the game, and each time the German team has caused problems for England immediately......
Commentary partner Lineker nodded with a smile and agreed: "To be precise, the madman Lee and Loew are constantly adjusting the team's tactics, just like two martial arts masters, which makes us fascinated...... Although this game is not over yet, with the performance of Crazy Lee and Loew, it can already be classified as a classic......"
The frantic shouting at Wembley Stadium continued until the end of the first half!
When the referee on duty, Steven Taylor, blew the whistle at the end of the first 45 minutes, the score remained at 1:0! After Rooney's goal, the constant adjustment of tactician Loew made the efforts of the madman Lee never paid off...... Of course, Lee Tong-fan's adjustment also made Germany's efforts to equalize before the end of the first half come to naught!
###英格兰更衣室!
"First of all, guys, congratulations, because it's a shame that your performance didn't give me even a chance to show my authority by getting angry......"
Li Tongfan's words made the locker room laugh!
The Three Lions players are enjoying the game as they are now, especially some of the veteran internationals who have lived through the McClaren era - the former head coach McClaren, in addition to the clear tactical arrangements before the game, is always an afterthought, often led by the nose by the opposition...... As a direct consequence of the manager's sluggish performance in tactical changes, England's superstars have been in a dilemma of being powerless and aggrieved...... But today, the new boss, Li Tongfan, easily changed all that!
Timely and correct adjustments, quick and concise changes, informality to the form of the starter, and unflinching onslaught when the opponent attacks...... The command of this man, known as the "God on the Sidelines", allowed the Three Lions to find their way forward! For the players, everything on the turf becomes simple as long as they play seriously according to the new owner's requirements...... Compare goods and throw them away, and McLaren is the "goods" that were thrown away!
The football field is also a place where the strong are respected, and in the 45 minutes just ended, the "ability" of the muffled man far beyond McLaren was vividly reflected, and the superstars of the Three Lions have subconsciously begun to sincerely accept the arrangement of a new boss who is even younger than themselves!
And in the German dressing room opposite!
The atmosphere is not lively, but it is definitely not dull, and the backwardness of a single goal does not disappoint the fighters of the Germans, and the players seem calm!
Head coach Loew stood in front of the tactical board and apologized to the players: "The goal conceded in the first half was my tactical mistake, I apologize to you!" However, Loew started to tick the boxes on the tactical board, ......though, "England's weaknesses are still quite obvious, with their right wing-back Philips Neville and centre-back Anton Ferdinand ......"
There was silence in the dressing room, and the German players were listening carefully to the manager's tactical arrangements!
The German team, which is the number one in the world in terms of organizational discipline, is like a precision machine, and Loew is the engineer who sets the most correct operating program for this terrifying machine, once the machine is allowed to exert its power, it will be a disaster for any opponent!
This time, under the readjustment of Loew, the tactician who thinks he has seen all the hole cards of the England team, does Crazy Lee still have a chance?
###15分钟之后, the second half of the game begins!
After a brief lull, Wembley Stadium began to go berserk again, and the English men and women who had been given a fifteen-minute break regained their energy and began to cheer hard for the team in the stands again!
Compared to the McLaren era, Lee's Three Lions' reborn performance in the first half made fans even more crazy...... Of course, it would have been great if we had scored a few more goals!
“…… Goal goal, goal, we need to score! ”
"Whoa, whoa, 5:0...... 9:0, dear Mr. Rice Bucket, please give us a big victory! ”
On the field!
England kicked off first and launched a fierce attack on the German team's position!
“…… The second half of the game began with Crazy Lee making changes to the England line-up...... Whoa, five people were changed in one go, and the two-meter-one-tall high school striker Pete Crouch replaced Wayne Rooney, the scorer, and it is said that Ferguson asked the FA to let Rooney play only half the game, and it is true to see that this is true...... Ashley Young replaces Downing, Theo Walcoat replaces Steven Gerrard and Lescott replaces Anton Ferdinand...... God, 19-year-old Manzioni actually got a chance to play, and he replaced Philips Neville......"
After Sester's introduction, Lineker, who couldn't wait to express his opinion, immediately picked up the conversation: "Half of the lineup in the first half was replaced, whether it was Downing and Gerrard, who performed well, or Philips Neville and Ferdinand who were not good, they all sat on the bench. It's a crazy plan, it's not a simple friendly match......"
On the field!
The German players were surprised to find that Crazy Lee's frantic substitutions had made all that manager Loew had done in the midfield dressing room, and that Anton Ferdinand and Philips Neville, two men who had been seen as weaknesses, had disappeared from the pitch.
When the players looked to the sidelines, they found that Loew made several gestures in a row, and the meaning was obvious - continue to play according to the arrangement!
After a few minutes of probing, the Germans understood Loew's intentions, as they soon found that the new arrivals Lescott and Manzioni seemed to be a little better to deal with than the already off-board Ferdinand and Philips Neville!
Both guys are national team rookies!
The 24-year-old has only been selected twice for the Under-21 national team before this, while the 19-year-old Manzioni has been isolated from the England national team at all levels, and his position at club is centre-back, but he was put in the right wing-back position by Lee Tong-fan!
