The house leaked, but it rained all night, and the boat was late and encountered a strong wind.
The battalion is full of injured players, and the head coach and the club are at loggerheads. This is enough.
What's even more unfortunate is that during the adaptation training in the afternoon of the match day, captain Yarolim and goalkeeper Rost hit their heads together. They were both seriously injured and were taken away by ambulance...
What makes people even more amused is that when Hessle was helping to carry a stretcher, his finger was pinched by the stretcher...
There is also a Chinese idiom that misfortunes never come singly, which means that when a person is unlucky, bad things will always happen one after another.
When this happened, there were still three hours before the start of the game. The third goalkeeper Tom was in Hamburg. It was too late to come by plane now, unless a special plane was used and a special route was opened like in American blockbusters...
This is explosive news. Hamburg fans are simply confused. Can they still play?
After emergency discussions, the organizing committee rejected the Hamburg Club's request for an extension, and either abandoned the game and awarded Bochum a 3-0 win, or used existing personnel to participate...
This is not a matter of favors. Every club has unexpected things. If special circumstances are taken into account in all matters, it will be impossible to proceed! Rules are rules!
There was once an Asian Games, in the football group match before the opening ceremony, half of the Uzbek players did not arrive due to flight delays! Even then, it was not postponed. Only 11 players of the team took the field, and there was no substitute. The goalkeeper
It was also a guest appearance as a forward, but Uzbekistan actually managed to maintain a draw in that game!

The Bochum team is a weak team, with a loose defense, weak waist, and weak front. They only won 4 games in the first half of the season, and won one victory at home and away in the second half of the season.
However, among the only 6 wins, there was one in the first half of the season when Hamburg was defeated 1-0 in an away game. The reason for this is that the instability of the Hamburg team this season is one aspect, and the other is the problem of injuries.
Hamburg's half-season game against Bochum was also full of injuries.
Remember the "Monchengladbach Curse". Hamburg always has inexplicable problems when playing against Borussia Monchengladbach, not only on the spot against Borussia Monchengladbach! Generally, in several league games after the game against Borussia Monchengladbach, Hamburg's state
It will all be ups and downs.
In the first half of the season, Hamburg also suffered a five-match winless streak after losing to Monchengladbach, and faced weak teams such as Hannover, Bochum, Mainz, and Hoffenheim.
In fact, this can be explained scientifically using technical theories, and there are rules to follow.
The German Bundesliga matches are regular. The team rankings of the previous season are arranged at the beginning of the season in cyclic rounds and games. Therefore, in the Bundesliga, when encountering strong teams, there are a few in a row, and when encountering weak teams, the Bundesliga matches are regular.
There are also a bunch of them coming one after another...
Strong teams in the league are often able to steadily win against weak teams and score enough points. In this case, even losing one or two games in tough battles has no bearing on the overall situation. This is the real strong team!
In Hrubesch's words, the most important thing for the Hamburg team now is not the ability to defeat or draw with Bayern, but to find a way to deal with the weak teams at the bottom of the points so as not to fall into a helpless situation!
The problem of "whether you are weak when you are strong, or whether you are strong when you are weak" is a common problem for many teams. Chen Zhuo called Hrubesch specifically to ask for advice on this issue.
Hrubesch's analysis is that any team that "will not be weak when it encounters a strong force and will not become strong when it encounters a weak force" is basically a team based on defensive counterattack tactics.
When a team with a weak defense is unwilling to settle for a draw, problems often arise and they are beaten back by others...
Hamburg's basic tactics this season are indeed defensive counterattacks. They can often seize opportunities when facing strong teams' offensive play, but when faced with the more determined and intensive defense of weak teams, they often end up with a draw or being beaten by others.
The counterattack, the double defeat by Monchengladbach this season, and the home defeat to Hamburg in the first half of the season are all the same.
Moreover, Hamburg often makes some low-level mistakes this season, such as suddenly getting lost and unable to concentrate a few minutes after scoring a goal. Chen Zhuo also discovered this situation at least two or three times...

Hamburg is now in a situation where there are not many options to choose from. There are many unresolved problems, many unresolved emotions, injuries that make matters worse, and Labbadia's insistence on going his own way...
Ze Roberto just played the whole game three days ago and was not physically strong enough to support the whole game. He should be used as a substitute. Elia's effect in attacking from the defender position was already shown in the last game. With Elia's ability
The left side of the bar can be "stable but fast", and with the dribbling space, Elia is more conducive to utilizing his speed.
Could it be that Labbadia couldn't even see this? Obviously not!
Now that Spannell's active stealing ability and Elia's assists are used, we must pay attention to the protection of their point. Use Ogo and Boateng to form a rib defense line, taking into account both the left and middle.
It is also part of the drill in training...
Wasn't the effect in the drill bad? Obviously not! In that case, Labbadia would not have adopted Chen Zhuo's suggestion at all!
As for why it was adopted and then overturned, no one knows the reason except Labbadia himself.
On the field, when the goalkeeper was introduced as Patton, a player from China, Bochum fans burst into laughter. This was the first time that no boos were heard when Chen Zhuo was introduced in an away game.
Ze Roberto went into battle and served as a double defensive midfielder with Behrens. The left midfielder still used Spannell, the right midfielder Teshe and Trokhovsky served as the attacking midfielder, and the four full-backs were Ogo and Shu.
Ertz, Rozenar, Boateng and Elia served as single arrows and responded with a 4-5-1 formation.
Without Yarolim and Chen Zhuo in the midfield, the burden was handed over to Ze Roberto and Trochowski. However, Ze Roberto's physical fitness and speed also determined that the Hamburg team did not fully speed up.
The only possibility is to brake quietly and control the rhythm steadily and steadily.

The bad luck is not all over yet!
In the fifth minute of the opening game, Ze Roberto collided with his opponent during an interception and fell to the ground in pain...
Serbian midfielder Maric tried to help Ze Roberto, but his hand was pushed away by a Hamburg player running over. Maric signaled to the referee that he was not committing a flagrant foul. The referee obviously accepted Maric's explanation and just showed him
Got a yellow card.
The stretcher came on the field, and after the team doctor checked, he made a substitution signal to the sidelines. An angry Labbadia ran to the linesman and yelled, protesting that the referee's punishment to the Bochum team player just now was too light.
Maric, who is 1.76 meters tall, is one of those players who has a simple appearance but a strong playing style. He is not too tall but has a strong body. He was a player who just transferred from the Belgian team Gent during the winter break. (
At the age of 10, he already has a lot of experience.
Chen Zhuo, who ran to Ze Roberto to check his injury, saw Labbadia yelling at the linesman and throwing a bottle, and quickly shouted: "Ogo, Ogo!"
While shouting, he waved to Ogo to pull Labbadia away, because Chen Zhuo saw that the referee had already trotted towards the place where they were arguing, with his hands still in his pockets!
What's the use of yelling at the referee? Why did you go there earlier! Chen Zhuo had already said before the game that Bochum's defensive style is tough and a little brutal. The 37-year-old Ze Roberto is no better than he was back then.
!
Labbadia had already been warned of the risks when he suggested using Ogo instead of Ze Roberto.
Ze Roberto has exquisite skills and is slow to turn due to his age. When facing a "brutal midfielder" like Maric, he suffers a lot in confrontation. To deal with Maric, he should be someone like Yarolim or Matteisson.
Among the players, Ogo, Boateng and Marić also competed.
The obvious thing is there, but Labbadia insists on going his own way, just like running over to argue with the referee now. It is really impossible to know what he is thinking.
"Beep~~~" The referee ran over and signaled Labbadia to go back, but Labbadia spat and scolded him. The referee immediately took out the red card and showed it to him...
Five minutes into the game, the starting defensive midfielder had to be replaced due to an accident. Coach Labbadia paid the price for his emotions and was sent to the stands.
It seems that there is no unlucky one, only more unlucky...
Labbadia was angrily dragged away by the substitutes and goalkeeper coach. He only vented his emotions and did not even tell assistant coach Cardoso who to replace Ze Roberto.
For Hamburg, this game must be won. A draw means that they will be pushed further away and the European competition will even become out of reach. This is unacceptable to Hamburg, but what can it do now?
Almost everyone believes that the Hamburg team can no longer avoid the misfortune of defeat in this game!
For Bochum, if you are sick and kill you, win Hamburg, which is only half-lived, to get out of the relegation zone. They will not have a better chance than now!

"Steady, don't be in a hurry! Cardoso, Cardoso!" Chen Zhuo shouted as he ran to the sidelines and called assistant coach Cardoso's name.
