Chapter 222 Cutting-in full-back!

Of course, Pan Yi has another answer to who is learning from whom, and it is also a more correct answer.

These are actually tactics that Guardiola will often use in the future!

Strictly speaking, at this time, the current Guardiola is learning from the future Guardiola...

Moreover, if the use of fouls and cards to delay the opponent's fast break is actually reflected in many teams, then another trick Pan Yi used in today's game is definitely Guardiola's

It's original.

Teams that mainly play the 433 formation also face a problem:

If the team makes a mistake in the backcourt and is intercepted by the opponent, only three players in the backcourt, including the midfielder and two central defenders, will be left to delay the response.

If the opponent has sufficient troops when launching a counterattack, a 3-on-3 situation will easily occur.

Especially in sports battles, once a 3-on-3 situation arises, the opponent only needs to use a very simple combination of passing and cutting to break their own goal.

In order to effectively solve the above problems, Guardiola also came up with a way:

When the team conducts a positional battle attack, the full-backs selectively move in instead of pressing forward as much as before.

His position is parallel to the midfielder, and his responsibility is to assist the midfielder in delivering the ball, and to make the first interception when switching from offense to defense.

This arrangement can effectively alleviate the shortcomings of insufficient rear defensive forces in the 433 formation when transitioning from offense to defense.

At the same time, when the team is conducting a positional attack, the full-back can also be used as a ball release point in the backcourt, which facilitates the team's kicking and sorting in the midfield and backcourt.

The original inspiration for this tactic may have come from Bielsa's use of Solin and Vidal. With wingers in the frontcourt, the full-backs moved inwards to the center during the attack and became central midfielders.

But later it was Guardiola who discovered it deeply and carried it forward.

If this were in a FM game, it would be the responsibility of the famous "inside full-back"!

Before Guardiola, there was almost no such weird-looking full-back style of play.

This has also led to the fact that in FM2021 or FM2022 games, players all know that the inside full-back is useful and can be used as a half-back midfielder, but even if all players are searched, it is difficult to really find someone suitable for this position.

In other words, the positional proficiency of the inside-cut full-back will never be found to be high by default. You can only practice it yourself, and it is best to find a young midfielder to practice.

When it comes to reality, Guardiola's earliest use of such tactics was using Lahm and Alaba to play such roles at Bayern - including Kimmich later.

This is also the reason why both Lahm and Kimmich are qualified to play the defensive midfielder position (or it can also be said the other way around, in short, their comprehensive abilities are very strong).

When he arrived at Manchester City, the defenders who most often implemented this tactic became Cancelo and Walker.

Walker's adduction is a pure engineer's idea, and he is used to increase the conversion interception ability.

When Cancelo is adducted, it is an advanced 3313 system. While increasing defense, he also has good kicking skills and can assume the responsibility of the defensive midfielder.

With the implementation of the full-back tuck-in tactics, Manchester City liberated Gundogan, who played his best game for a period of time.

Of course, Pan Yi has always felt that the translation of "cut-in full-back" is still not accurate, because after all, they don't really cut in and shoot like wingers.

It might be more appropriate to call him "tuck-in full-back".

On the current court, Hamburg is strictly implementing Pan Yi's new 433 tactics.

Salah takes the ball on the right, which also means that the current main attack direction is on the right.

At this time, left back Robertson has already moved in to the side of midfielder Casemiro, while right back Carvajal is actively assisting to seek cooperation with Salah.

In this way, if the opponent steals the ball and counterattacks, the number of people left behind to defend will change from the original 3 defensive midfielders plus two central defenders to the current 4 defensive midfielders, left back, and two central defenders.

Defensively, it is obviously much more solid.

Of course, the same is true if Hamburg attacks from the left now.

The left back Robertson will greatly press forward to cooperate with the left winger Son Heung-min, while the right back Carvajal will position parallel to the defensive midfielder Casemiro. When sorting out the ball, he can also be responsible for the opponent's counterattack.

1 interception job.

This is something Pan Yi has often practiced in training and warm-up matches.

In fact, although the inside full-back has so many advantages, this tactic also places higher demands on players.

To have the ability to play in the midfield, a full-back needs a higher football intelligence. At the same time, the winger on the same side is also more demanding and needs to be more varied to cooperate.

Therefore, although Guardiola used it for several years, the inside full-back has not become a mainstream tactic.

But now Hamburg has this condition.

With the abilities of Robertson and Carvajal, after a period of training and game familiarity, they have basically mastered the essence of this style of play.

Needless to say, Son Heung-min and Salah are basically the ceiling for wingers.

Therefore, the Bayern players discovered that it was difficult to grab the ball at the feet of the Hamburg players, and once it was grabbed, it was difficult to form a good counterattack opportunity.

If the ball is grabbed near the midfield, Hamburg players will counterattack without hesitation or commit a foul;

And if you grab the ball in Hamburg's backcourt through frontcourt pressure, you will also face the blockage of four opposing defensive players, and it will be difficult to create space.

Therefore, for more than 10 minutes after the opening, Bayern has been unable to attack effectively.

The game lasted 15 minutes.

Bayern passed the ball from the wing, and before Robben could stop the ball, Robertson behind him and Casemiro on his side formed a double attack on him. Peter Pan could only pass the ball back to Tia immediately.

Ge.

After passing the ball, Robben immediately ran back to his own half, left the wing, and wanted to meet Thiago.

Hamburg's pressure prevented Bayern Munich from finding an effective route for the ball, so they could only resort to the winger's retreat.

Thiago also understood the situation and immediately passed the ball to Robben in the gap.

But just as Robben was about to catch the ball, he found that Kante quickly turned around and forced him over.

Robben wanted to pass the ball to Kroos in the middle, but Kanter interfered behind him, causing Robben's pass to miss and pass in front of Kroos.

De Bruyne was seen running forward quickly, and after receiving the ball, he strode forward with the ball.

Then, before Kroos came over to grab the ball, he sent a direct pass to Mitrovic at the top of the penalty area.

Double-teamed by Bayern Munich's two central defenders, Mitrovic used his strong body to protect the ball, and then seeing that there was no chance to turn around, he quickly crossed the ball.

Son Heung-min quickly made a diagonal pass to the left rib, caught the ball before Ram, pulled his right foot laterally, and started to hit.

The Korean forward's shot was very decisive, but Bayern's goalkeeper Stark was very focused and turned sideways to save the ball.

The ball flew to the center, and Boateng made a clearance to get out of the penalty area.

But at this time, there were already Hamburg players outside.

Carvajal had already pressed forward. He first approached Alaba with the ball and seemed to be preparing to pass, but then he suddenly pushed the ball towards the baseline.

De Bruyne, who was still on the right side of the center line, sprinted suddenly, quickly reached the baseline to receive the ball, and then took the ball with his right foot and passed it into the small penalty area!

In the middle of the penalty area, Mitrovic once again won the battle with two Bayern central defenders.

Like a heavy tank, he fought his way out of the siege of Van Buyten and Boateng, leaping high to head the goal!

Fortunately, goalkeeper Stark reacted quickly and struck out with both fists in time to block Carvajal's cross.

Mitrovic's head was just a little short of touching the ball!

After the football was saved by Stark, it did not fly far, but landed at the top of the penalty area.

Salah rushed over and hit a curve ball with his outside instep, finding Mitrovic again.

At this time, Van Buyten did not dare to neglect. He squeezed Mitrovic tightly behind him and jumped up high, ready to fight him for the header.

But Mitrovic still grabbed the ball!

With his back to the goal, he couldn't swing his head to attack the goal, so he just headed the ball lightly and dumped the ball not far from the penalty spot.

Kanter, who was lurking near Mitrovic, cleverly grabbed the second spot and shot without stopping the ball!

The ball followed a straight line and entered the lower left corner of Bayern Munich's goal.

"The ball is in!!!!!!"

"Kante!!!"

"He scored his first official goal since joining Hamburg!"

"This is also Hamburg's first goal of the new season. The cooperation between the two new summer transfer players helped Hamburg break the deadlock. Now Hamburg is one goal ahead!"

Pan Yi on the sidelines was also clenching his fists in celebration and shouting loudly to the players on the court:

"Well done, Kanter!"

"Well done, Mitrovic!"

"Well done, Salah!"

"Well done, De Bruyne!"

"Keep up the good work!..."

The players certainly deserve praise.

This is a perfect demonstration of Pan Yi's new tactics on the court.
