Schalke O4 fans were disappointed. After the winter break, Schalke O4 did not look as good as the performance in the final stage of the first half.
Magath didn't know whether he was angry or betting on life. Today's lineup arrangement seems to be completely unbalanced.
It is easy to remind people of Real Madrid back then, with a bunch of offensive players in front and a destiny on the back.
Schalke O4's middle lane can no longer effectively undertake the offensive organization task, so only two wings are left to fly together to create opportunities.
If Schalke O4 is absolutely useless due to its imbalance in offense and defense, it must be biased.
It’s just that the flaws are too obvious and the chances of winning are not too great.
In the oscillary minute of the game, when Kante ran to the backcourt to the wing and Azpilicueta to attack Falfan, the latter directly sent a 45-degree cross.
Edu did not win in the top, but Boateng headed the ball to clear the ball, and the football fell to the right in front of the penalty area. Raul appeared at the football landing point. When stopping, he stopped and swung past Rakitic who was in defense, and then sent a diagonal plug.
The ball was indeed just right. Hunterlaer rushed past his compatriot Ma Tyson to complete the offside. He did not adjust the inner instep in the left rib of the penalty area and shot. The football drew an inner arc and hung directly at the dead corner of the goal!
Navas did not perform a magic save this time and was powerless to turn the world back!
Hunterlaer turned around and ran to the center circle location expressionlessly. Even if he scored, Schalke O4 players looked a little nervous.
Perhaps they themselves know that it will not be easy to complete the reversal in this game.
"Huntral received a direct pass from Raul to finish the goal!
Schalke O4 scored a goal!
Hamburg is slightly invasive when defending, but Schalke O4 invests huge offensive force to form a restraint.
The score has become 1:2. Can Schalke O4 equalize the score in the first half in one go?"
Magath looked like the one who was most inspired by the goal. He nodded and clapped on the sidelines, as if telling everyone that his troops were correct, but the outside world couldn't understand it. Now that the goal is scored, it proves that he is not wrong.
Situ Yunbing made gestures to the disciples on the field, asking them to strengthen their counterattack efforts in the middle and backcourts, and at the same time, the enthusiasm of frontcourt players to return to defense should be increased!
Hamburg is indeed a little relaxed when he leads two goals. This relaxation does not matter to the game, but to the decline in defensive investment!
This is also human nature. A young team always needs to be repeatedly corrected, improved and strengthened on certain issues. If you pass this stage, the team's future will be limitless.
The shortened lead has strengthened the sense of urgency for the entire Hamburg team again.
When Schalke O4 also tried his best to win the game back, Hamburg's accelerated oppressive play made Schalke O4 suffer a catastrophe!
In the 8th minute of the game, Hamburg launched an offensive craze at the Schalke Stadium!
Elia responded to Rakitic's pass from the right and faced Schmitz's dribble and cut inward, and he tried to shoot from a long shot 25 yards away from the goal!
The football was blocked by defender Metzeld.
The football flew to the side, and Azpilicueta rushed forward and pushed forward again after controlling the ball before Falfan. After De Bruyne was overdoing the ball, the ball was quickly transferred to Reus's feet on the left.
Reus was counterattacked by Hevedes. He quickly got out of the ball and cut inside and broke into the left rib of the penalty area. Rakitic hit the wall at the front of the penalty area and cooperated and sent the ball to Reus's running line.
The Rockets pulled their feet and shot in the left rib area!
Neuer blocked the ball in the near corner and barely blocked the ball with his body, even Neuer could not directly hold the ball.
The blocked football flew out of the penalty area. Moritz was on the football flight route. He could not help but stretched his legs to stop the ball. However, the ball that had just been lifted in front of him was wading away by De Bruyne who had rushed by him as soon as he landed!
The 2o-year-old Moritz was like stopping the ball to De Bruyne!
De Bruyne, who dribbled forward into the penalty area, attracted Schalke O4 players to siege. Griezmann was in an offside state. At this time, he gently slanted the ball like a quadruple.
Pass diagonally to the front left.
When Matip reacted, he stopped suddenly and turned to intercept, but his former teammate Rakitic rushed past the ball and pushed forward and broke through the entire defense line!
De Bruyne's pass was impeccable, and Rakitic easily got a one-on-one opportunity.
Facing his teammate Neuer not long ago, Rakitic calmly pushed the ball into the lower right corner of the goal. Neuer jumped to the extreme but failed to touch the football!
The arrogant trip to Schalke Stadium was instantly silent!
"Wow! Rakitic pushed the shot and broke through the door of his old club!
Hamburg has given people a crazy sense of déjà vu in the past few minutes. They have raised the rhythm to a level that makes Schalke O4 at all at a loss, left, middle, right, long pass, short pass, long shot, pass and cut, and then inserted the attack. As long as they want, they can threaten the opponent's goal in various ways!
Elia's shot was blocked, and Reus's shot was rejected by Neuer, but when Rakitic entered the penalty area without any signing, no one could stop Hamburg's goal.
I have to say that the hamburger is more pleasing and passionate!
They extended their lead to two goals again.
The score became 1:"
Schalke o4 saw the scene they least want to live!
Rakitic left the transfer and murdered his old master in less than ten days!
Rakitic did not go to celebrate, and he did not even show a smile.
Leaving Schalke O4 is a foregone conclusion, but after all, I have fought here in the past. At this time, both in terms of emotion and reason, the most basic respect should be given to the fans who supported him in the past.
Situ Yunbing did not applaud either. He was not surprised by the team's offensive frenzy after the team put pressure one after another.
The addition of Rakitic makes Hamburg midfielder more energetic, which is reflected in the rate and level of the midfield connection.
In the past, Hamburg's counterattack or fast attack, if De Bruyne could use the long pass and precise guidance, then Hamburg's offense would be very fast, because the front line could face the back line directly.
However, when De Bruyne is blocked, someone must retreat on a large scale or collectively, and the raid will cooperate with 4O codes to form a threat.
This process will give the opponent a certain amount of time to adjust the defense line and reduce Hamburg's offensive success rate.
But now it’s different. De Bruyne and Rakitic have the front and back levels of the position first. If you can pass the ball to De Bruyne, you can organize a threatening offensive as soon as possible. Then let him come. If he is not in a good position, pass the ball to Rakitic. The difference is that De Bruyne can send straight passes more frequently in front, and Hamburg’s forward line can have a higher probability of facing the goalkeeper directly!
Rakitic brings more unsurprising but very stable shots, which can allow Hamburg to improve the efficiency of changes and transfer offenses in the organizational links.
Simply put, the opponent used to stare at De Bruyne, which basically reduced most of Hamburg's fast break threat, but now even if he stares at De Bruyne and Rakitic, it is enough to ensure that Hamburg's forward line can focus more on forward attacks in the fast break without frequent retreats!
Even though a long time has passed, Situ Yunbing still lingers in his mind when he frequently retreats against Reus in some key games in the first half of the season, almost everywhere in the midfield.
That highlights Reus' ability and team spirit, but also shows from another perspective that Hamburg's offense has shortcomings. Since then, he has been thinking about how to solve this problem until Rakitic joins!
So simply looking at Rakitic's personal abilities is of little significance. The effect he brings is to improve the fission-level improvement of Hamburg's midfield attack group!
This is not because of Rakitic's personal strength, it is just a matter of order. If Hamburg had Rakitic before, and the winter transfer was De Bruyne, the latter could also bring such an effect.
In order, Rakitic's arrival and integration into the team were the milestone of Situ Yunbing's completion of the last piece of the puzzle.
Even if building a team requires taking into account all aspects, the head coach's work is not just devoted to the technical and tactical level. At least now, Situ Yunbing can temporarily not consider the team's technical and tactics.
and focus more on improving the team’s connotation and adjusting the team’s status.
Hamburg's strength makes Schalke O4 forward players a little discouraged. They don't have many opportunities, and they always have the idea of ​​gritting their teeth and making a bloody path. However, the fragility of the team's midfield and backcourt defense line makes them have another idea: no matter how much effort is, it is meaningless.
Schalke O4 has not reached the picturesque offensive level in the frontcourt, but it is definitely worthy of the evaluation of the defense.
Draxler and Moritz deserve more sympathy. Magath is too cruel. It allows young players aged 20 and 17 to try to support Schalke's midfielder. Perhaps only five teams in the Bundesliga can make their pair stand firm. Other teams are definitely similar to Hamburg, bullying and ravaging them like wolves and tigers!
At the end of the first half, the score was 1: Schalke O4 season opener lost to Hamburg 1:5 at People's Park Stadium. In the second half of the season, it seems that they may be able to replicate that score.
Schalke O4 fans have had enough of Magath's wild and unrestrained behavior. The past five months have been constantly testing their patience bottom line. Now, they have chosen to openly oppose Magath.
The booing against the Magath wave was deafening!
You should know that since Schalke O4 returned to the Bundesliga in 9 years, they have only ranked 1O in the league in two seasons, and in the past seven seasons, they have not fallen out of the top five!
Chapter completed!
