668 The Last King

Thanks to "The Thief", "Seven Times a Night Lang Ah Lang", "Florious Qici" and "Ming Zhi" for the rewards!

--------------------------

The German team did not expect to face an England team with a completely new spirit and a completely different technical and tactical style from the past.

In terms of paper strength, the England team, which is obviously stronger, lowered its profile and played defensive counterattacks. The advantages it exerted were speed and player activity area.

After conceding the first ball, Ballack actively participated in the defense to ensure that when the German team faced a counterattack, the English team's flexible movement and tacit passing and cutting would not seize the space and deal a fatal blow.

The result was that the German team's offensive power was weakened. After being calmly resolved by the England team, England's counterattacks frequently threatened, but the opponent's three defenders and double midfielders, coupled with Schneider's return

The defense decisively committed fouls or supplementary positions, and the England team had more opportunities on the field, but they were never able to score a second goal.

The German team lacked the effective support of Ballack's offense, so the offense was very simple and the effect was very average.

Schneider is still very threatening on the right, and Lampard alone cannot form an effective interception. He must double-team with Ashley Cole to limit his performance.

As for the attacking midfielder Deisler, his performance was very average today. The pressure put on him by Bart made him very unaccustomed to the clingy close-quarter press in the Premier League. On the other side, Boehme's performance was completely disappointing. On the left

As long as he enters England's defensive midfield area, if he is approached, either Beckham or Neville will intercept his ball easily.

Yankel and Neuville did not receive offensive fire support, and they were a little impatient on the front line. They tried to shoot when they had a little space, and they could not pose a threat to Seaman at all.

Time passed by minute by second, and the German team's offense could not open up the situation. Voller watched anxiously from the sidelines.

Ballack's retreat focused on strengthening defense. Indeed, Hamann and Hamann strengthened the protection of the penalty area, but this only solved the defense, and the German team's offense was greatly reduced!

Now in the real-time standings, Germany is lagging behind!

Germany has been firmly at the top of the list from the beginning of the qualifying rounds, and now it is reversed by England in the penultimate game. Such a blow is really unacceptable, and losing to England on German soil?

Voller didn't think so. The German team had to score a goal, so take the risk. Moreover, the current situation does not necessarily mean that England will never be able to score the second goal.

He gave Ballack instructions on the sidelines, attack!

With the coach's instructions, Ballack did not dare to disobey the order. Da Ma fought with a golden sword.

He went to the front line and indeed provided immediate help to the German team's offense. At least the German team could control the ball in the England team's backline, but they still couldn't find a clue in the final step of penetrating the pass. South

Prediction of Gate intercepting a through ball

Well done. The German team does not have that kind of world-class opportunistic striker like Inzaghi. When an opportunity arises, the forward may have less than 1 second to grasp it. If you keep up, the golden opportunity is right in front of you.

, reacted a second later, and Southgate resolved it.

After Ballack started attacking, England's counterattack threat skyrocketed.

In the 31st minute, Ballack's long shot in front of the penalty area was blocked by Ferdinand with his body. The ball bounced out and landed in front of Ashley Cole. He rushed up and passed the ball directly to McManaman in front of him.

Schneider's gums were almost broken. When Ballack's long shot was blocked, he was in front of the right. He predicted that he would not grab the ball before Cole, so he immediately turned around and ran back, but he

He had just run less than five meters. The ball had already rolled from four meters away from him to the German team's half.

McManaman started from the sideline to the center. Cole's pass was also passed to the space there. Haman did not dare to come up to defend, so McManaman went directly to the center and drove the ball straight in.

Owen Scholes, McManaman, three arrows fired!

Facing Bayern Munich's defense of 3 defenders and 1 midfielder.

McManaman finally came to Harman in front of the penalty area. He did not make a breakthrough and passed the ball to Irving. Irving had already thought about what he should do when he launched the counterattack.

On the first day Aldrich coached him, he kept the request in mind: pass the ball!

Just one kick!

Irving faced McManaman's pass with his back to the penalty area and passed it to Scholes who was in a parallel position. After the ball was released, Irving immediately turned around. Link originally rushed up to mark Irving. His rush

, Irving turned around and counterattacked behind him. Scholes kept passing the ball behind Link. Irving succeeded in countering offside. At the same time, McManaman on the other side slanted into the ribs of the penalty area after releasing the ball, causing a threat to the German defender.

Interference and containment.

Irving countered offside and faced the ball passed by Scholes. The landing spot was excellent. He didn't need to stop the ball to adjust. He faced the falling ball and volleyed it!

Bang!

The ball hit the net!

Kahn was unable to make a comeback. The two goals he conceded were about 12 yards from the penalty spot to the goal line. The opponent's shots were impeccable, with angles, power, and even God could not stop them!

"England won another victory! Owen's volley in the penalty area defeated Kahn! 2:0, England led the German team 2:0 away from home. Who could have predicted before the game that the game would develop like this? England's year

The previous panic of missing the World Cup has completely disappeared! Now the England team is very hopeful to directly advance to the World Cup finals as the top spot in the group!"

The young boy chasing the wind galloped on the land of Munich, and his teammates rushed over and gathered in front of Irving, roaring to the sky with the Three Lions!

Aldridge closed his eyes and nodded. The process of scoring the goal was something Aldridge admired.

England's counterattack brought the characteristics and advantages of its players to the extreme.

McManaman's ball control and dribbling, Scholes' passing, Irving's movement and shooting, counterattack speed, and the players' tacit understanding of movement.

This year’s hard work has not been in vain!

Klinsmann and Jensen had already begun discussing the German team's problems behind the scenes.

"Four against three, they were actually penetrated by a wave of attacks with a constant rhythm. What is the German team's defense doing!"

Klinsmann whispered that the golden bomber, who was once all-powerful in the German team, felt incredible about the German team's performance today.

"The German team is adhering to tradition, but it is a pity that there are no Beckenbauer, Matthaus, or Sammer in the modern era. Attacking scenes like the one just now often appeared in Munich three years ago when Millwall played Bayern Munich, but

The key figure to keep Bayern Munich's defense intact is Matthaus. As a defensive player, the key is a choice made in the blink of an eye. Link defends, but Irving does not expect to pass the ball.

When Irving turned around and started running, Link could not stop Irving except for a foul. Nowotny and Vaughns were attracted by McManaman's forward thrust. For a while, they did not divide their troops to cover their positions. When they reacted,

, it’s too late, this is actually an instinctive choice. The gap between world-class and first-class, first-class and second-class, sometimes is not simply technical ability, but the gap in physical awareness, even a hundred years of practice cannot make up for it.”

Jenson has the most say in this regard. He was eliminated from the Ajax youth training system not because of his poor skills. On the contrary, it was because of his game awareness.

If you participate in a game on the field and wait for your eyes to see, your head to think, and make a judgment before taking action, then the day lily will be cold!

How fast does a ball fly over? How much time is there? What is the contrast between offense and defense? This means making the best choice in less than 1 second. When a player's strength reaches a certain level, playing football relies on instinct.

So I often see some players making the same mistakes over and over again. It’s not that they don’t want to change, but they can’t! First-class players can’t become world-class. Is it because they don’t work hard enough? No, maybe it’s because the gap in consciousness and talent can never cross the level of strength.

of the gap.

Klinsmann was silent for a while.

To be honest, the German team is adhering to a successful tradition, which is the 352 formation.

However, today, there is an essential difference between this 352 and the glorious 352 that swept the world. It originated from one point on the court, that is, the disappearance of the "free man".

German Emperor Franz Beckenbauer defined the free man, and no one has been able to surpass him since then, but his mantle still has heirs. Sammer can win the Ballon d'Or as a free man, Matthaus has countless honors, and they all have

Helped the German team achieve success on the international stage.

Take a look at the three defenders on the court now, Link, Nowotny, and Vaughns. Not to mention that none of them has the ability to meet the standards of a free agent. Nowotny is still a little bit shadowy, but he wants to have the ability to play on the top stage.

What they do, after all, their strength is limited, and judging their strength in terms of central defenders, world-class? Far from it! First-rate? Some people are reluctant, and some are between first-rate and second-rate.

It is conceivable that the German team's talent declined during this period.

Aldrich thought further.

Not only does the German team lack a new generation of talents, but the tradition of 352 is about to come to an end. Many people say that Germany was brilliant in 2002 and won the runner-up in the World Cup. In fact, that was a failure in the eyes of the Germans. Otherwise, the German team would not

After 2002, the club abandoned the 352 that had persisted for decades and switched to 442. None of the subsequent coaches returned to the 352.

2002 is a time point for German football, symbolizing the end of an era, because they reluctantly abandoned many of the outstanding characteristics that once made German football brilliant, completely burying 352 in the long history of history, and turning to the next big era.

Glory has re-laid the foundation and returned to the top of the world after 12 years!

Aldrich felt that he was lucky, but it also made him sigh with regret.

Fortunately, when I coach England now, I encounter a declining king, the lowest period of German football, and an old-era dynasty that is about to enter its grave.

Sighing, he did not have the chance to challenge the unparalleled 352 peak German football.

Eleven years ago, Beckenbauer's heroic words still ring in my ears.

"The only trouble we have right now is that there is no trouble!"

It is enough to imagine how domineering German football was at that time.

The German team is two goals behind and has no other way out at this time. Because they were tied by Greece in the last round, the goal difference between them and England has also fallen into a disadvantage. England's current goal difference is 16.

, the German team, the difference is almost 10!

If you can't equalize the score and lose a few, it has little practical significance. It's just a matter of face.

In fact, this is a game where the influencing factors are complicated and lead to the development of the game being reversed.

England is slightly stronger on paper, and the German team has the advantage of home court, which can be said to be 55, so it is reasonable for both sides to maintain a balanced offensive and defensive attitude in the game.

However, England defended against counterattacks, and the German team also cooperated very well with the main attack, which gave England an even greater advantage in terms of strategic height!

The German team's pride, record of battles, home court advantage and other factors force them to focus on the attack, while England, as the stronger side, counterattacks. As long as the German team does not change its tactics and game attitude, it will be a nightmare for the German team.

It can't end.
