Section 172 The meeting of two tacticians (middle)

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 In order to express respect for "Your Majesty", Tubingen Youth arranged a team training match. Since it was during the holiday, the players' physical fitness was still recovering, so the time was only half an hour. Xu Genbao personally came off the field to meet Feiffer.

Tübingen Youth 01 led by Er played against.

Leonie invited Beckenbauer to the box to have a better view. From this unusual invitation, Beckenbauer keenly realized that the young man from Tubingen might want to show him something special.

So I was delighted to be invited.

Sure enough, as soon as the training match started, the home team's tactical play attracted Beckenbauer's attention. The whole team was running very actively. Every time they lost the ball, they immediately counterattacked on the spot, and there were multiple counterattacks.

In any position on the football field, the home team formed an independent small tactical system with three or four players. They carried out skillful passing and receiving coordination or systematic defense, tearing the opponent's tactical system to pieces. In the end,

Although the main team did not deliberately seek to score goals, they still easily won 3:0.

The players were jogging and stretching on the field. Xu Genbao walked to the sidelines and asked, "How about Franz?"

"A very exciting tactic!" Beckenbauer clapped softly: "This is the first time I have seen such a style of play. Why didn't you use it in the game? Is it because it's not worth it?"

Xu Genbao smiled and shook his head: "We are an amateur team after all, and we can't talk about retaining combat effectiveness. But the players are not very skilled and mature in this tactic. In addition, you can also see that it requires high physical fitness.

We have too many underage players and it’s difficult to consistently finish it with high quality.”

Beckenbauer thoughtfully said: "I think you still want to keep this tactic mysterious and then use it to win in key games, right? For example, the German Cup final?"

Xu Genbao smiled and shrugged. It’s self-evident, isn’t it? Once a new tactic is introduced, it possesses the most valuable part of tactical application: tactical suddenness. Of course, it must be used at the most critical time. Besides, Tübingen in the regional league

The youth have no opponents, and they also performed triumphantly in the German Cup. No one is worthy of this tactic.

"Aren't you afraid that I will leak the secret?" Beckenbauer smiled and said, "I am German."

"If your Bayern Munich had won yesterday," Xu Genbao said with a smile, "then I would definitely not show it to you. I believe you would be willing to let us defeat Schalke 04."

On March 6, in the German Cup semi-final between Bayern Munich and Schalke 04, Schalke 04 defeated Bayern Munich 2:0. Beckenbauer is a Munich native, and his feelings for Bayern Munich are well known.

He played for this team for 15 years, and only spent the last three years of his career in the United States and Hamburg.

Beckenbauer laughed loudly: "Jimbos, I am sorry that I have only met you now. If I had met you earlier, I think we must be very good friends today. Well, in Berlin in May, I hope you will

We can teach them a lesson. Of course, this is said by a veteran Bayern Munich player and fan, not by the vice-president of the German Football Association."

"I will definitely try my best."

"What's it called? This tactic should have a name, right?"

"In China, I call it 'rob coerce around,' or 'rob coerce around,' or 'RCA' for short. In Germany, I call it 'full-court pressing play,' or 'active defensive play.'"

, or 'aggressive play'?"

"Rob coerce around?" Beckenbauer gently repeated these words: "rob, to obtain a second attack opportunity and delay the opponent's attack speed; coerce, to force the opponent to make mistakes, tearing apart the opponent's tactical organization; around, to use more local areas

Against a small number, the collective restricts individuals and gains local advantages. Such tactics, with individual tactics, collective tactics and targeted tactics, are really a daunting system. Has it ever been successful? I mean in a league, not a game

Competition. With this unexpectedly positive and uncomfortable style of play, it is not surprising to win one or even multiple games."

"Eight years ago, I succeeded once, leading a team to win the championship of China's top league. But then I never succeeded again. This kind of tactic requires a lot of conditions. It's very difficult to succeed, just like you retire.

From now on, there will no longer be pure free agent tactics in German football."

Beckenbauer nodded with deep sympathy. A tactical system often has very complex tactical environment requirements. The simplest thing is that if Beckenbauer was not in the powerful Bayern, he could withstand the opponent with 9 other players.

In a 10-man attack, Beckenbauer would never dare to run around without fixing his position. It is precisely because of a group of strong and loyal teammates that Beckenbauer can freely display his football talent, otherwise he would be in a weak team.

He simply cannot win a loose tactical position in the team. Of course, this is also directly related to his broad vision, superb understanding of the game and comprehensive technical level. In other words, like "pressing and closing", "freedom"

The "people" tactics also started from the actual situation of Bayern Munich at the time. It was very consistent with all aspects of the team's conditions at the time and had very harsh comprehensive conditions and factors. Once the conditions changed and any one of them was missing, this tactical system would be difficult to copy.

The problem. Beckenbauer was able to play this tactic in the national team because the national team at that time was also formed with him as captain and Bayern teammates as the core. But since he retired and became the head coach, he has thought more than once

If you want to copy the libero tactics, it's a pity that you won't be able to reach his original heights.

"I think you seem to have successfully copied this 'RCA' tactic. Do you think you can reproduce the 'Free Man' tactic now?" Beckenbauer asked Xu Genbao.

"Genius!" Xu Genbao shook his head: "In my opinion, free agent tactics require a talented player, a talented commander, and a coach who can play the game."

"However, we are not short of geniuses today. There are a lot of geniuses such as Matthäus, Sammer and young Ballack."

"No!" Xu Genbao shook his head: "The problem with today's free agent tactics is not that there are too few geniuses, but that there are too many geniuses. From the 1970s when we played football to today's new century, football techniques and tactics have improved too much, and players

The training of players is becoming more and more thoughtful and all-round, which is different from when we relied more on talent to play football. What free agent tactics require is the technical difference between players. Only when this technical difference reaches a certain span, that is

Only a player like you who is so comprehensive and technically ahead of others is qualified to play as a free agent. This ensures that you have a unique tactical position and that the whole team can loyally respect your tactical position and implement this set of play.

.And today, we have too many geniuses, too many players with the same temperament and comprehensiveness as you, but the technical gap between them has not widened. So no matter which player wants to play as a free agent, even if his skills are

The level is higher than what you were before, and you don’t have the authority and unique tactical position you had back then.”

"So, His Majesty the Emperor must be unique. Today, too many people can become emperors, but no one can wear the crown." Xu Genbao concluded.
