This substitution was also carefully arranged by the Hamburg coaching staff and was still designed for the core offensive drill of the two free agents.
After Pietroipa came off the field, Ruud van Nistelrooy reached Peter's single arrow position, and the opponent became Hoffenheim's center back. The right midfielder Teshe replaced Ruud van Nistelrooy, competing for the top position of the penalty area and containing him.
The opponent's midfielder and left midfielder Ze Roberto moved to Teshe's position, giving up his left midfielder position to the new Korean teenager.
Although Hoffenheim adopts a zone defense, unlike man-to-man defense, which is disrupted by the dizzying substitutions and position changes of opposing defensive players, this kind of substitution brings multiple positions.
The linkage changes will still cause temporary discomfort for Hoffenheim.

There are several changes in the offensive routine adjusted by the Hamburg coaching staff. After Ze Roberto was moved from the left midfielder to the right midfielder position, the focus of Hamburg's attack on Ze Roberto shifted to the right.
Compared with Teshe, Sun Xingmin is weak in headers but good at dribbling, breakthrough and speed. His characteristics are more like Elia. Therefore, after this adjustment, Ze Roberto's pass is not only handed over to Teshe in the center for a header.
In addition to the ferry, there is also a diagonal pass from the left, allowing Sun Heung-min to use his speed to penetrate directly into the bottom corner.
Similarly, Van Nistelrooy has gone from being personally involved in the passing of the offense to involving and suppressing the opponent's centre-backs. Van Nistelrooy's involvement and suppression is bound to put more pressure on Hoffenheim's two centre-backs than Pietroipa.
Teshe, who acts as a cannon at the top of the penalty area, has two more paths to pass the ball to. In addition to knocking back to Chen Zhuo for a long shot, he can also pass the ball to the left wing to Sun Xingmin, and directly pass the ball to Ruud van Nistelrooy.
In this offensive routine, Sun Xingmin and Teshe are both substitutes. The players in the main lineup are Elia and Berg respectively. The starting point of the right midfielder is Ze Roberto and Trokhovsky.
Choose one of the two.

Compared with Ruud van Nistelrooy's tactic of suppressing Hoffenheim's midfielder as a passing hub in the first half, Hamburg's adjusted routine also has pros and cons. Of course, Hamburg's offensive methods have been enriched a lot, but whether it is Teshe or
Berg, their competition for the first spot and the pressure they put on Hoffenheim's midfielder still have a certain gap compared with Ruud van Nistelrooy.
In the first half, Van Nistelrooy almost suppressed the opponent's double midfielders by himself. After adjusting his position, Gustavo alone was enough!
Before coach Rangnick gave instructions, Hoffenheim captain Salihovich made corresponding deployment adjustments based on the opponent's position change.
Midfielder Weiss stepped forward to defend Chen Zhuo, and the midfielder adjusted to a diamond position.
Eduardo returned to the left midfield position, forming a confrontation with his Brazilian senior Ze Roberto, which directly affected the source of Hamburg's offense.
Forward Obasi, who moved to the left midfielder position at the end of the first half, did not immediately move to the forward position. Eduardo signaled him to cooperate with him in defense to press Ze Roberto.
Salihovich's attitude is very clear. They not only want to have an impact on Hamburg's offensive source, but are also prepared to make full use of Ze Roberto's physical and speed shortcomings and turn him into a "weak spot"!

After Ze Roberto, the source of the attack, suffered greater pressing pressure, the Hamburg team also quickly made adjustments.
In the first half, facing Savihovich's defensive method of not being particularly pressing and actively fighting, Ze Roberto spent more time watching, second, and slow to pass, which is also in line with his age, physical fitness and technical style.
After being double-teamed by Eduardo and Obasi in the second half, Ze Roberto used more one-kick passes, and even gave up taking the ball and transferring, and instead used movement to affect the positions of the two Hoffenheim players.
and suppression to create opportunities for teammates.
As for Chen Zhuo, he also began to take the initiative to retreat to get the ball, replacing Ze Roberto and becoming the source of Hamburg's offense. The offense from the three points of Teshe, Sun Xingmin and Ruud van Nistelrooy is now more focused on
Chen Zhuo's midfielder position is even a little further back than the midfielder and he launches directly.
Even in the diamond position, Weiss cannot completely escape from his defensive area, and although Tescher replaced Ruud van Nistelrooy, his position was obviously further back than Ruud van Nistelrooy in the first half. Gus, who was in the diamond position,
Between Tavor and Weiss.
Tescher's position selection and sudden movement forward and back caused Hoffenheim's double midfielders to sometimes appear with Gustavo standing forward to leave space for Ruud van Nistelrooy, and sometimes Weiss would appear.
The situation of standing at the back allows Chen Zhuo to calmly dribble the ball forward.
Hoffenheim coach Rangnick felt that the Hamburg team had obviously put a lot of effort into Hoffenheim's double midfielder parallel stance and diamond stance, and it was just an adjustment for one player.
Based on positioning and movement, such rich coordination is achieved, which fully proves that Hamburg is also a team with extremely high tactical literacy!
(five)
Not only is the tactical literacy extremely high, the Hamburg team is also very targeted! The one who felt this way was Fulham assistant coach Riley Vinson in the stands. He felt more and more strongly that the Hamburg team was trying to kill Huo Huo today.
Fenheim was used as a "partner" to practice offensive routines based on the regional defense system with two central defenders standing in parallel!
In the 15th minute of the second half, Sun Xingmin received a pass from Chen Zhuo from the backcourt and did not go down. Instead, he chose to cut in laterally. Gustavo stepped forward to defend Sun Xingmin, and Weiss retreated to cover Teshe.
…
Chen Zhuo, who was being followed by the camera in Riley Vinson's hand, made another explosive sudden start. Hoffenheim forward Ibisevic, who was next to Chen Zhuo, was thrown away by the Chinese player in two or three steps!
"The left midfielder cut inside and forced the midfielder in the diamond position to recover, and then passed back..." Riley Vinson keenly judged Hamburg's offensive line.
As expected, Sun Xingmin cut in and passed the ground ball across to Teshe. Teshe knocked it back without stopping. Due to Weiss' recovery and Ibisevic being thrown away by Chen Zhuo's sudden start, the ball was thrown back by Teshe.
After receiving the ball, Chen Zhuo took advantage of the situation and approached the "35-meter" area...
For Chen Zhuo, it is a bit abrupt to just volley the ball without pausing. At such a long distance, the goalkeeper's reaction speed is sufficient and he cannot pin his hopes on the opponent's mistakes. The tactics do not rely on blindness to complete the attack.
With one kick, Hoffenheim's midfielder Gustavo was already in Chen Zhuo's shooting path, blocking Chen Zhuo's kicking angle. Hoffenheim's players reacted very quickly!
Without a chance to kick, Chen Zhuo took the initiative to move the horizontal belt to the right. Gustavo used his peripheral vision to see that there were no Hamburg players in the back row to cooperate with him, and kept moving with his feet to prevent Chen Zhuo from changing direction and breaking through.
space.
"After receiving the pass back, instead of taking a super long-distance shot and dribbling to the right when there is no angle from the front, is this to create a gap for the players in the back row? I don't see who will pull out from this.
Start in the gap..." Riley Vinson continued his tracking and recording, thinking that Fulham's midfielder also has the ability to quickly cover up the defense.

Ze Roberto ran behind Chen Zhuo, and Gustavo and Eduardo also exchanged defenses. Gustavo no longer followed Chen Zhuo towards the side, but instead marked Ze Roberto.
For Chen Zhuo, who moves to the right, Eduardo is responsible for this defensive area, and Obasi is cooperating to try to press and contain. Behind Eduardo, Christian is already ready...
Almost at the moment when Chen Zhuo and Ze Roberto completed their cross-position change, Chen Zhuo made a pass! Half-turning while running horizontally, he made a through pass and passed to the defense of Hoffenheim's left back Christian.
Zone...the through-ball and diagonal running tactics in cross-cutting, this is a typical routine when the zone defensive tactical system launches an attack!
Hoffenheim's shortcomings are so similar to Fulham's. Hoffenheim's left back Christian is a 32-year-old Brazilian player, and Fulham's left back... When they played against Hamburg, Conches
Ji has accumulated yellow cards and is suspended. The substitute for Konchesky will be the substitute right back
Defender Panthil, or Norwegian left back Bjorn Riise who transferred from the Norwegian league this season. For most of the season, Panthil can play at the left back position, but cannot fully perform. However, another
The famous left back Bjorn Riise seems to have not fully integrated into the team...
In other words, the Hamburg team's offensive tactics have fully taken into account the defensive area of the opponent's left back!
Chen Zhuo's pass was very penetrating, and Sun Xingmin's change of direction was timed very well. It was not offside and it was a good ball. The linesman ignored the Hoffenheim defender's hand gesture.
After a series of cooperation, South Korean teenager Sun Xingmin received Chen Zhuo's through ball from the right and rushed forward along the right wing!
Riley Vinson's camera was tracking Chen Zhuo. At this time, his running route was also on the right. Behind Sun Xingmin, Riley Vinson was following Chen Zhuo while filming and wondered. Even if the Chinese player didn't go
When running in the middle to grab points, you should also be ambushing towards the top of the penalty area to prepare for the second landing point and then run to the side. Doesn't that lead to overlapping positions?
