"Werder Bremen is a difficult opponent. Now, like Bayern, they are tied for first place in the league with 10 points, and our points are only seven points. Previously, we lost the game against Cologne because of the European Super Cup.
We can’t make this kind of mistake again in the game.”
"Werder Bremen's offense is very good, but their defense has big flaws... Their defenders are very tall, but they are slow to react. We need to break through more, look for more opportunities, and use fast and flexible attacks.
To cause problems in their defense, we have to be careful defensively with Miku, Charles Steas will not be much of a threat, but we have to pay attention to Elton, this guy is very fast, it is us
The type that we least want to encounter is to control Miku in the midfield. His passing and organization are the source of Bremen's offense! Of course, we should also pay attention to Listesh and Umit Davala... later
Don’t leave too much space in the field, do you understand?”
"Got it!" the players responded in unison.
Dick nodded and let the players set off - he was still sure about this game, because although Bremen's midfielder Miku did not play in the French national team, Miku was still in the national team.
For ten days, Dortmund hid Arshavin and let Everton take his place. In addition, Olic was also placed on the bench, and Donovan came on. This was to increase the number of frontcourt players.
Speed and breakthrough ability.
In many cases, Everton is still very useful. His speed and skills can cause a lot of trouble for most Bundesliga defenders, while Donovan has a good ability to break through with the ball. When Arshavin because of his previous consecutive
They will play a big role when you feel a little tired due to the competition and the transfer of the national team.
Because this game is not an international game, some standing tickets can be sold - most Bundesliga clubs' home stadiums are like this, so the capacity of their stadiums changes frequently...
This time Dortmund fans set a new record. Including standing votes for this game, more than 80,000 fans flooded into the Westfalenstadion! This created the latest Bundesliga record - Ruhr area
Fans have always been representatives of madness. Perhaps it was precisely because Dortmund fans set such a record that not long after, Schalke 04 fans angrily made the highest decibel noise in the stadium...
The sight of 80,000 people shouting together is rare in football matches. For Dortmund, who are mostly young players, such shouts are enough to inspire their courage and fighting spirit.
Young people are always more likely to be aroused and get out of their state, and they are also more likely to be motivated.
From the beginning of the game, Dortmund launched a fierce attack at home - although Dortmund's defense was quite strong in the European Super Cup, Dick knew that this tactic could only be used in extreme situations.
During the game, such tactics will weaken the players' energy and prevent Dortmund's only advantage from being fully utilized.
Young people should play more energetic and unrestrained instead of shrinking in the half court and playing dull defensive football.
Fast running, sprinting back and forth, intense pressing... Dortmund launched such an attack after the start of the game, which made the shouts of Dortmund fans in the stands become even crazier.
Werder Bremen, on the other hand, constantly struggled with Dortmund in the midfield and played fast breaks whenever possible - their forward partner was a typical one-high-one-fast tactic, with Charles Tias a standard high center forward, and Etienne E.
Dalton... This fat forward has amazing speed. Known as ball lightning, his speed is much faster than many fast horses.
In the tenth minute, after withstanding two attacks from Dortmund, Elton almost created an opportunity with his speed. At that time, he and Metzelder chased the ball together. The two started at the same time. Metzelder
Derby Elton was ten meters closer to the ball, but when they were about to catch up with the ball, the two were already running neck and neck. The surprised Metzelder took the risk and chose to fall to the ground to tackle the ball, grabbing the ball in front of him.
In the penalty area, Weidenfeller attacked and got the ball, and Dortmund resolved Bremen's attack!
"Well done!" Dick gave Metzelder a thumbs up off the court. He knew that if he had to press out to attack, Dortmund's defense would definitely face the impact of Elton's speed. It was good to be able to do this.
Well, what he wants is not to block Bremen's offense, but to score more goals than them!
Metzelder gave a wry smile. Elton's speed was indeed too fast. The tackle just now almost caused him to strain his thigh. If he did it a few more times, Metzelder was worried that he would be injured...
…
In a head-on confrontation, Metzelder is not afraid of any forward, but in such a speed competition, even if he is not slow, it seems a bit difficult...
The only thing that pleased him was that soon, Dortmund used offense to suppress Bremen again.
Donovan received a pass from Borowski. The American has been playing in Germany for several years. Although he was always a substitute at Bayer Leverkusen, he has a lot of memories of his time in Dortmund.
Although he is also a substitute, he seems to have more opportunities in Dortmund.
Facing the defense of Canadian full-back Starr Terry, Donovan forced a breakthrough with the ball. After attracting the opponent's attention, he quickly turned around and passed the ball to Everton, who shifted to the center to receive the ball.
.
Everton picked up the ball at the front of the penalty area, then raised his right foot and shot directly!
The ball flew into the penalty area, Friedrich blocked the ball with his body, and the ball fell in front of Everton again. Everton took the ball forward and rushed into Bremen's penalty area.
Bowman came from the side to block. Everton made an emergency stop, and then spun the ball to the left again. When Bowman made an emergency stop to block, he dunked the ball back again, and then in the penalty area.
Shoot suddenly with your right foot!
The ball flew close to the lawn towards the lower right corner of the goal. Bremen's goalkeeper Lineker was blocked by Bowman. When he saw the ball flying close to the ground, it was already too late to make a save...
With huge cheers from the Dortmund fans, the ball flew into the Bremen gate. With Everton's goal, Dortmund took the lead at home in the 16th minute!
"Good job." Dick waved his fist. Although there are no big stars in Dortmund's front line, they are all very distinctive players. Even in rotation, they can all perform their best.
Function, as long as it can be properly arranged, such an offensive line can also play a great role.
For example, at this time, Arshavin is resting due to rotation, and Everton can step up. Now Dortmund's forward line is not lacking in speed, technology, and strength. Several forwards have their own characteristics, which also affects Dick's ranking.
The formation of troops is of great help.
This is why Dick feels that he should stay in Dortmund for another season. In addition to not wanting to leave after just one season, Dortmund's current situation is actually a great opportunity for him to train him on how to use the information at hand to compete for a more favorable position.
As a result, striving to win the league championship to win bonuses is also a test for himself.
After taking the lead, Dortmund's offensive slowed down a bit, which allowed Bremen to start to create some opportunities. Five minutes later, Charles Thias received a pass from Miku and beat Vaughns to attack the goal.
, almost heading the ball into Dortmund's goal.
"Continue to attack, don't forget what I said before!" Dick shouted from the audience. To shrink at this time is to seek death. At least in this case, the lethality of a Charesteas is much greater.
The reason for adopting the tactic of taking the lead and then recovering the defense against Porto is because the opponent's offensive ability is not very good, and the Lithuanian high center is also average. Although Charisteas is not a top center, his strength and impact are
But it's quite outstanding.
Only by continuing to use offense to suppress the opponent can the threat to oneself become smaller. Although doing so will cause Metzelder to suffer some torture, Dick does not mind losing the ball. Such training,
It will make Metzelder grow faster.
However, there is another factor that Dick did not take into account, that is, Metzelder showed extremely tenacity in this game. No matter how stubborn he was, Elton would not have many chances to win.
ball.
This is of course a good thing, but such hard work caused him to strain his thigh when the game reached more than 30 minutes...
After a hard tackle to shovel the ball out of the sideline, Metzelder was about to get up, but fell down holding his thigh...
Seeing him like this, Dick also had an ominous sign. He first called Ismail on the bench to let him warm up, and then the team doctor came on the field with a stretcher.
"Thigh muscle strain, need to rest for a while." The team doctor quickly reported back the news. Dick shook his head, then called Ismail back and asked him to play: "Be careful, don't let that guy have any injuries."
For a chance to sprint, just block the pass from his teammates, don't compete with him for speed, do you understand?"
"Understood!" Ismail nodded and rushed onto the court.
"You guy, why do you have to fight with him..." Dick sighed and patted Metzelder who was being carried off on a stretcher: "Forget it, recover well and think about why you are injured... the other party's
Do you have to compete with them because you are fast? Think about this question clearly. Although you are not slow, there is no need to compete head-on with them."
Metzelder nodded in frustration. The boss was right. He was too reckless. If he could be more flexible...
"Don't worry, take care of your injuries, you know? I don't want you to always be troubled by injuries in the future." Dick finally said.
Metzelder was carried into the ambulance with a grateful face. His strain was still very serious this time, because some of the previous movements were relatively large, and they eventually broke out together, and Dick also remembered that Metzelder was
In the future, he will also be the kind of glass man who will overhaul every six months and a year. If his glass body is caused by his own hands, then he can't explain it. He would rather lose Metzelder as a central defender than let Metzel.
Ed is recovering better.
Ismail is also a top central defender. He is more mature than Metzelder. Last season and since the beginning of this season, he and Metzelder have basically taken turns playing. This is also to cultivate Metzelder.
, but who knew that Metzelder would be injured in this game? Next, we have to rely more on Ismail...
