Kuhn stood at the door of the locker room, high-fiving the Ruhr Rhine players one by one as they walked in, while praising their performance.
When it was Janus Edman's turn to score, he gave the opponent a bear hug and slapped the opponent on the back hard.
"Nice cum! That's what it's supposed to be like!"
The Ruerrhein players were all a little confused and thought they were in the lead...
After all the players returned to the locker room, Kuhn closed the door to the locker room, turned around and said to them:
"I know that we fell behind in the first half. But this was what we expected. I have already told you about this before the game. There is nothing to say. What I want to remind you is
Did you see the last few minutes of the first half? They were still attacking. In fact, at that time they could slow down and let themselves rest. But they didn't do that. Why? It's because their physical strength was so good that they didn't need to rest.
Is it because they don’t want to rest? No, it’s because they don’t dare to rest!”
Because Hulei scored twice at the end of the first half, narrowing the lead to one goal, the Ruhrlein players were originally worried that they would be criticized by the head coach during the halftime break.
Unexpectedly, instead of criticizing them, the head coach actually talked about the Pirates' problem.
His words attracted everyone's attention, and they all turned their attention to their head coach.
Kuhn continued impassionedly:
"Why don't you dare to rest? Because as I said before the game, there is one and only one way before them! They can't do anything except attack, they don't dare to rest, they don't dare to slow down the pace. So everyone
Think about it, can any team play like this for ninety minutes? No, not even Madrid Pirates. Even their physical energy consumption will be faster and greater. So what do we have to worry about? In the second half, continue to press high, and
They attack each other and consume their physical energy at an accelerated rate. They will definitely collapse before us!"

"...In the second half of the game, when we entered the opponent's 30-meter area, Kamara and Toni still had to shrink closer to the center. When Hu was entangled by the opponent, you had to establish a relationship with him.
connect……"
After Parotti drew his desired player positions on the tactical board, he called on the names of two wide players.
"At the same time, our full-backs must also actively press forward and make full use of the space left by the two of them on the wing after adduction... The offense must have continuity, control the second landing point as much as possible, and continue to apply pressure, otherwise
It’s hard to really threaten their goal..."
After adjusting his tactics, Parotti looked around the locker room and said to his players:
"Our captain, Juan Ramirez, has booked a flight to Munich on May 26, and he will join us there."
※※※
"John, the boss has said that we will continue to attack in the second half."
After walking out of the locker room, Janus Edman put his arm around John Sett's shoulders and said to him.
Seth smiled: "Did you see Hu scored two goals and want to compete with him?"
In the first half, Hulei scored twice and Edman scored one goal. Judging from the number of goals, Edman is temporarily at a disadvantage.
Edelman neither admitted nor denied: "Isn't it possible to kill two birds with one stone?"
Seth put away his smile and stopped teasing Edelman: "Don't worry, there will be a chance for you, Janus."
"John, you know, I'm always ready." Edelman patted his chest.
Banging sound.
※※※
"Come on! Come on pirates!"
"Only one goal left! If we score one more goal, we can tie the total score!"
"Go! Hu Lai! Hat trick!!"
Li Qingliang and Han Shuyu joined other Madrid Pirates fans in the stands and cheered for the Pirates players as they walked out of the tunnel and onto the pitch.
The performance of Madrid Pirates in the first half gave the home team fans hope.
After all, there is only one ball left.
Madrid Pirates could score two goals in the first half, why not score at least two in the second half?
Madrid Pirates will become the first team in thirty-three years since Stan Park Rangers in the 1996-1997 season to lose more than one goal in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals and come back!
※※※
The second half of the game was kicked off by Madrid Pirates.
Amid the cheers of the home fans, Hu Lai passed the football back and then ran forward.
The football took a spin in the backfield of Pirates of Madrid, and the Pirates players used this method to observe Ruhrlein's response.
Then they found Ruhrlein's players pounced on like they had done in the first half.
This can basically determine what kind of adjustments Ruerrhein's head coach Kuhn made to the players during the halftime break.
"Ruhrlein is still pressing hard. The two teams are really in control today..."
"That's good for the pirates!"
"But it is also a huge hidden danger. After all, the Pirates have many scoring opportunities, and Ruerrhein also has them..."
"This is really good news for neutral fans! The more open the two sides play, the more goals they will score!"
In the live commentary box and in the studio behind, commentators from all over the world saw this scene and said one after another.
Their positions are different, and their views are also different.
For example, a commentator on German TV criticized Kuhn's choice:
"Kun was a little too confident. This is the home court of the Pirates! He played against the Pirates in the first half. What was the result? The lead changed from two goals to one. If he continued to play like this in the second half, he was going to
Is the one-goal lead also lost?"
The Madrid Pirates players on the field were not polite to Ruerlein and took advantage of the opportunity created by their pressure to push the offense forward.
In the end, Hu Lai's shot missed the goal post slightly.
Although no goal was scored, the Madrid Pirates fans in the stands still applauded and cheered without hesitation.
※※※
Kuhn stood on the sidelines with his hands spread out, dissatisfied with the offensive opportunity his team had just missed.
The second half of the game has already started for seven minutes, and everything is the same as the first half. The two sides are constantly attacking.
Others may not understand why he insisted on attacking Madrid Pirates in the second half.
He certainly didn't do it to entertain neutral fans.
He made this decision after analyzing the physical performance of both parties.
Throughout the first half, the two teams fought back and forth in a lively and fast pace.
In such a situation, neither party's physical fitness will be very good.
During the halftime break, his team's three physical therapists continued to massage and relax the players so that their bodies could regain more energy as soon as possible.
He believes the same should be true for Madrid Pirates.
After a fifteen-minute break and adjustment at halftime, the current physical condition of both sides is acceptable.
But it doesn't mean that you can hold on to the whole audience.
With the decline in physical fitness in the second half, this fast-paced and high-intensity confrontation will definitely not be able to continue.
Although Ruerrhein still leads by one goal, this goal's lead is not safe.
So Kuhn hopes to score another goal while the team still has physical fitness.
As long as he can score another goal and widen the point difference to two goals again, he can immediately let the team switch to defensive counterattack and wait for work.
Of course, if the team fails to score a goal at the beginning of the second half, then at most 20 minutes later, he will let the team switch to a defensive counterattack.
Although they were only leading by one goal at that time, the Madrid Pirates were also physically exhausted, and they had to continue attacking. Ruhrlein still had the opportunity to succeed through counterattacks.
So the first half of the second half is key.
Ruerlein continued to press and attack at a high position. On the one hand, it could score goals on its own, and on the other hand, it could also contain the Madrid Pirates' attack.
It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Therefore, he will appear very unhappy when he sees that his team fails to seize opportunities.
Wasted opportunities will be punished!
While Kuhn expressed his dissatisfaction, Edman, who had just missed the opportunity, also put down his hands holding his head and looked up to the sky with a roar.
He told John Seter before the start of the second half that he was ready.
As a result, Set just passed the football to him, but he knocked the football away in the penalty area.
Although there was a reason for Danny Drew's personal interference with him.
But if you don't seize the opportunity, you just don't seize it.
Edelman doesn't want to make excuses for himself.
To compete with a shooter like Hu Lai, every opportunity missed is a huge waste!
"It's a pity that Edman didn't seize this opportunity! Compared with Hu, he is still a little immature in front of the goal. But he is only 20 years old, and he can be compared with Hu, which is enough to prove how great his future is.
Got it!"
The German commentator saw the troubled Edelmann and comforted him.
※※※
If Edman could hear the German television commentator, he might not be comforted.
Because the commentator said this, he actually still thinks he is not as good as Hu Lai.
Being compared with Hu Lai was not what he wanted.
What he wants is to defeat Hu Lai.
He regards Hu Lai as his idol, but also as his goal.
He is in really good form this season. Whether in the league or the Champions League, his number of goals has increased significantly compared with last season.
Although he is not arrogant enough to score more goals than Hulay - of course this is because Hulay's total goals are too terrifying. But he feels that he should be able to compete with Hulay in a game.
It's a battle.
In the last round of the game, he scored a goal at home, while Hu Lai failed to score a goal.
But he would not think that he had defeated Hu Lai just like that.
Because the Champions League semi-finals are played over two legs.
Didn't Hu Lai score twice when he returned to the home court?
He only scored one goal in this game. Counting the goal in the first round, it was just a tie with Hu Lai.
He will continue to score goals and he will defeat Hulay in the Champions League semi-finals.
After shouting to the sky, Edman turned around and ran to the backcourt. At the same time, he did not forget to give a thumbs up to John Sett who passed the ball to him, indicating that he had made a beautiful pass just now.
Then he shouted: "Come again, John! Come again!"
※※※
PS, aha! What did I say?
England and Netherlands win for sure!
The United States and Wales must be equal!
Of course, the score deviated slightly from my prediction...but that's not important, what's important is that the result was correct!
In addition, since there is a game at six o'clock today, the prediction for the six o'clock update in the evening has been advanced to the eight o'clock chapter update:
Argentina vs. Saudi Arabia, there is no suspense, Argentina wins with three goals!
Denmark and Tunisia, draw!
Between Mexico and Poland, I am optimistic that Poland will win by two goals.
There was no suspense in the match between France and Australia, France won by two goals!
