Chapter 833: leader

As Yang Cheng himself said, after the German team came out of the group, he held the Double Heaven Supreme in his hand. He dared to gamble everything and dared to fight because he had already returned to the capital, how to bet and how to fight There will be no loss, on the contrary, he can take advantage of this rare opportunity to take a good look at this team.
How far can he go in the World Cup, he doesn't know, he can only take one step, but his transformation of the team is in progress.
In the quarter-finals against Uruguay, there is a five-day interval between the quarter-finals and the eighth finals. Yang Cheng has not relaxed at all in these five days. He stays with the players almost every day except In addition to training and watching game videos, they are constantly instilling ideas into players and correcting some of the mistakes they have made in the game.
In this game, Yang Cheng's starting lineup was adjusted again. The goalkeeper was Neuer, and the back lines were Ram, Bad Steuble, Mertesacker and Jerome? Boateng, Schweinsteiger and Hedira with double backs, is Thomas the attacking avant-garde? Mueller, Ozil and Podolski, the single forward is Klose.
Dessler had some physical problems after the game against the US team, and the training was not normal afterwards, so Yang Cheng did not arrange his starter in this game, but replaced Bordeaux with Deisler.
But according to Yang Cheng's idea, it is best to be able to arrange an assault player in the position of attacking the avant-garde.
The personnel changes are not small, but in fact, Yang Cheng's coaching of the German team has begun to take a rough shape.
First of all, this German team is still in the typical Yang Cheng style, advocating offensive football, insisting on control and oppression tactics, especially the strong oppression on the midfield, is the biggest difference between this German team and Loew. Because in Yang Cheng's view, a team without midfield and frontline oppression simply cannot survive in the current football environment.
Because the German team has established a set of excellent ball-free running system in the past few years, they can easily adapt to Yang Cheng's tactics and ideas. All they need to do is familiarize and improve.
In detail, Yang Cheng invested more in attack than Loew. He let the striker and three attacking forwards enter the opponent's 32-meter area. Hedila's midfielder was cruising behind these four players. He ran extensively to complete the spatial control of the area behind the four attacking players.
On the defensive level. Yang Cheng demanded that once the ball was lost in the frontcourt, everyone had to invest in an active counter-attack as soon as possible, so as to block the ball in the opponent's half in the first time. Hedila was an important part of his step , But the anti-robbing and oppression of the other four players should not be underestimated.
Achieved this step, even in the midfield and backcourt, even if the speed and turn is slow, there is plenty of time to return to defense.
In order to prevent the opponent from directly threatening the defense line, Schweinsteiger was fixed by Yang Cheng before the center defender, forming a protective wall, and Ram was more like a left forward. Because he frequently participated in the offensive, Schweinsteiger had to retreat between the central defenders. On the one hand, he pulled himself out of the opponent's marking zone. On the other hand, he also guaranteed the stability and breadth of the team's back line.
Bad Steubel would make up for Ram before and after Ram. Schweinsteiger filled Bad Steuber's position and was responsible for becoming the team's last line of defense after being snatched by Mertesacker.
Many people like to say that Schweinsteiger is the tiger Effenberg II, but Yang Cheng feels that these two people are different, especially for Schweinsteiger who cultivated it by himself in the past. Also always pay attention to him.
As a midfielder. Schweinsteiger is not as good as Effenberg in passing technology. The latter's passing ability is indeed phenomenal, but Schweinsteiger is better than Effenberg because of his running ability. He can run tirelessly throughout the game. This is What Effenberg does not have, of course, can also be said that the tactical style of Effenberg was different from the present, so it can only be said that Schweinsteiger is more in line with current football tactics.
Yang Cheng took charge of the German team and played two games. In the first game against Ghana, Schweinsteiger hit the midfielder. His partner is Hudila, playing the United States in the second game. His partner is Tony? Kroos and Hedila retreated to defender. Both pigs performed well in both games, but Yang Cheng's transformation of the team continued.
He originally wanted to transform Hedila into a central defender, increasing the backcourt to take the ball, but then he changed his mind, because Hedila's plug was too strong, a bit like Yaya? Toure can't hold back, so he wants to try the pig.
The character of this piglet is a bit like Busquets and a bit like Harvey? Alonso, but different.
For example, he has a strong overall view, excellent position, organization and scheduling, and ability to control the rhythm. After Van Gaal took charge of Bayern, Schweinsteiger ’s transformation went further and the ball was reasonable and decisive. , Clear ball line, excellent physical confrontation and strong running ability, these make him an excellent midfielder.
On penetrating passes, is Schweinsteiger not as good as Harvey? Alonso, but his ability to protect the ball and get rid of it is stronger, better physical quality, unlike Harvey? Alonso was so afraid of snatching that allowed him to dare to enter the threat zone to catch the ball when the frontcourt was deadlocked. Is this Harvey? What Alonso does not have, the latter is only able to play a role outside the opponent's marking zone, plus the piggy was born on the wing, and has a strong propelling ability.
However, it is very sad that Schweinsteiger met an Hedira who prefers to attack, and now there is no reassuring defensive midfielder in the German team, so Yang Cheng can only choose to sacrifice Shi Wei In Steiger, let Hdira play freely.
This is not because he likes Hedira, on the contrary, he feels that if Schweinsteiger is given more freedom, the latter can play better, but the problem is that Hedila is a mine and must be pushed forward , Schweinsteiger is more worthy of Yang Chengxin.
This is a compromise that is limited by the lack of German defensive midfielders. Once Yang Cheng finds a more suitable candidate, he will not hesitate to choose to release Schweinsteiger, he is convinced that Schwein Steiger's comprehensive training of all positions in the frontcourt can bring a huge improvement to the German team's midfield.
of course. Nor does it mean that Schweinsteiger has no shortcomings, such as his lack of self-confidence and lack of responsibility, which is also a question that Yang Cheng raised most in person when communicating with him. He hopes that Schweinsteiger can perform Be more proactive, more responsible, and more like a leader-level player.
At least in Yang Cheng ’s heart, he hopes that Schweinsteiger will become a team leader and tactical core like Effenberg and Barak.
Another lower back. Hedila was most talked about by Yang Cheng because he was too keen to intervene. Yang Cheng pointed out that he was not required to correct this problem, but he had to coordinate his progress with Schweinsteiger.
Schweinsteiger ’s movement frequency is slower, and Hedira ’s movement frequency is faster. The two of them are fast and slow. If they are combined well, they can play a very strong strength, but Hedila does not contribute much in defense. It made Schweinsteiger under great pressure. This is also where Yang Cheng is not very satisfied with Hedila.
He didn't want Hedira to change this feature. In fact, he thought Hedila's small skills were good. It is very threatening to insert an attack afterwards. It's a pity to change it. But if he can form a tacit agreement with Schweinsteiger, and when the latter is plugged in, the defense line is firmly protected, then he will be the most suitable candidate for Schweinsteiger.
The bold use of Bad Steuble and Jerome on the back line? The two teenagers Boateng, Yang Cheng also have no choice, Friedrich suspended. No people on the right. He can only go to Jerome? Boateng, let's check, and the central defender on Bad Steuble is also to check the players, and at the same time increase the backcourt points.
Don't look at the German team players, but actually there are always some problems with the high ball. This is also what Yang Cheng discovered in the last two games, because before Luff used more regional defense. The purpose is to prevent the tall guards from being easily hit behind, but this makes them hesitant to deal with the ball in some sensitive areas. There is a phenomenon of unclear division of labor.
Yang Cheng preliminarily determined his responsibilities and let Mertesacker grab it. After Bad Steuber dragged them off, they clearly assigned their responsibilities, but it took longer to build a solid back line. It was n’t possible in just a few days because it had to be built on Based on tacit understanding and teamwork, Yang Cheng is now relying on increasing midfield and frontline oppression and pressure to help defend, but as a result, the player's consumption will be greater.
Building a defensive system is not a problem for the pair of Yang Cheng and Benitez. Creating an offensive, Yang Cheng is more proficient. Everyone can see that. After Yang Cheng took charge of the team, the German team ’s offensive It's even more threatening.
Thomas? Mueller said in an interview with the media, "After Mr. Yang Cheng came to the team, the biggest change that brought us is that he let us learn how to play smarter!"
This game against Uruguay, Thomas? Mueller's first goal score was fully reflected.
He reversed the more straight running way before, but adopted a more roundabout running.
At the beginning of the game to the 21st minute, after Ram forwarded the ball forward, when Ozil leaned over to take the ball, he chose to run horizontally to the middle, which seemed to occupy the empty space pulled by Ozil .
Klose leaned to the left for the first time, holding Uruguayan's right back and right center back in one breath, and Ozil took the ball and went straight to the slot that Seklose pulled out, Thomas? Mueller changed from horizontal to vertical, and inserted directly into the restricted area, all at once, 1: 0!
"Is Uruguay's defense bad?" The on-site commentator shook his head. "No, they lost 1 goal in the first 4 games. It was one of the best defensive teams in the World Cup until now, but it was beaten by Germany. The team easily tore apart their defenses. Should it be said that Germany's offense is too good, or Uruguay's defense is too bad? "
Just 6 minutes later, Hedila midfielder gave the ball to Ozil, who passed it to Thomas? Mueller, Mueller attracted the attention of the defensive players on the left side and then passed the penalty area. Ram ran all the way into the penalty area, his right foot shot low, once again penetrated the goal of Uruguay, 2: 0!
"Oh my god, the German team will go to the next city!" The on-site commentator was filled with surprise and silence.
"Uruguay's defense line seems to be like paper, and this German team is afraid of going crazy!"
In the 41st minute, there hasn't been any outstanding Jerome in this game until now? After Boateng inserted the ball in front of the right, a precise diagonal pass sent the ball into the penalty area. Accurately found Klose, the latter swiped the header, ferried it to Bordowski, who was plugged in. The latter shot from the volley and sent the ball again to the goal of Uruguay, 3: 0!
Two consecutive games, the first half of the German team ended in 3: 0, enough to confirm the team's strong offensive ability.
After the second half of the game, the German team was assisted by Schweinsteiger Klose and then to the next city, but the German team's defense also declared lost in the 76th minute. Fran slammed Bad Steuber and drove Cavani's pass into the goal guarded by Neuer to pull back a goal for Uruguay, 4: 1!
This score was also maintained until the end of the game, the German team reached the semifinals of the World Cup!
Scored two consecutive matches to win big scores. The German team immediately caused a wave all over the world. Especially the offensive football method promoted by this team has become the most eye-catching focus on the World Cup.
Almost all fans around the world agree that the German team led by Yang Cheng will become a hot topic to win the championship, relative to Spain with a 1: 1 doctrine in every game. The German team is undoubtedly more attractive to fans.
The French team reported that this is the most gorgeous team played in the South Africa World Cup. It is not conservative at all and is full of the beauty of offensive football. The Times also believes that after Yang Cheng took charge of the German team, the team's technical and tactics were further released, whether offensively or defensively, Bilev has made certain progress.
But many professionals also revealed. Although the German team's performance in each game is improving. One game is better than one, but this team has natural flaws. Young and defensive, especially the latter question, are often the key to determining whether a team can laugh to the end.
"For the current German team, they have deducted the offensive to a certain height. They unswervingly performed the youth training system that Yang Cheng formulated that year, and cultivated a large number of stars based on this. Now it is here. It's time for them to harvest, but for this German team that is aspiring to win the championship. The biggest problem is not their offense, but their defense. And their play in key games. "
"The cup is different from the league. The league relies on offense and the cup relies on defense. This is well known in football circles. The Netherlands has given up its previous style of offense over defense and started to pursue calculation and defense, which finally made them achieve results. Reached the semifinals, and Germany is now clearly more offensive than defensive. "
"Yang Cheng is a very great head coach, his ability is undoubtedly, and he did bring a lot of changes to Germany, especially in the team's offense and defense balance, but he still did not do enough, He also needs to further strengthen the German team's defense while enriching the German team's offensive routines and methods. "
"However, unlike the offensive adjustment that can be immediately effective, with the current staffing of the German team, I am afraid that it is difficult for Yang Cheng to adjust on the defensive end. The two teams against the United States and Uruguay, the German team played heartily. Offensive, but it also showed a weak defense. "
"But there is one characteristic, that is, they all win by virtue of the first move after the opening. Once they are unable to win, how will the game become?"
Is this from the Times Martin? In Samuel ’s column, this old friend of Yang Cheng is obviously not optimistic about the prospects of the German World Cup. This is not because Yang Cheng ’s ability is insufficient, but he feels that the current staffing of the German team objectively limits Yang Cheng ’s Play, and what he most admires is Yang Cheng's transformation of the defensive end in two games against the United States and Uruguay.
He thinks this is a positive signal and the key to the German team's victory, but it is not enough.
Klinsmann, the former head coach of the German national team, also said in an interview that the biggest problem of the German team is mentality and defense. He affirmed Yang Cheng ’s attack after the opening and created a tactic that is beneficial to his own side. He feels that this It seems risky, but in fact it is the best tactical play against Germany.
And Yang Cheng's use of Ram was also confirmed by Klinsmann. He said that Ram performed better on the left and became the source of the German team's attack.
"How to fight tough battles, how to fight key battles, and how to ensure the team's defense while maintaining the offense, this is the biggest test for the German team after entering the semi-finals, because they will face a tough defense from the Netherlands!"
Knockouts are different from group matches, semi-finals and other knockouts are different. This is clearly what Klinsmann meant. He is reminding Yang Cheng that the closer the top is, the easier the player ’s mentality will change.
But he also added in the end, "No matter what the German results are, in this case, reaching the semi-finals, Yang Cheng has done everything he can, and the rest can only be given to God!"
In fact, in the semi-final encounter with the Netherlands, the passionate German team encountered a balanced Netherlands, and Van Malvik discharged Van Bommel, De Jong and Dezeu three defensive midfielders, obviously in this way Further contain the German team's offense and ensure the Dutch team's defense.
According to the statement disclosed by Van Malvik to the media before the game, "Everyone wants to play beautiful and winable football, and I am also the same, but the problem is that the existing staffing of the Dutch team simply cannot afford to be more radical and Adventurous tactics, so we can only adopt a tactic that is easier to produce results to help the team and win the game as much as possible! "
'S words are exactly the same as those of Van Basten, except that Van Malvik led the team to the semifinals.
But even so, they were also hit by the German team's attack!
