Chapter 874: Finale battle

On June 30, 2002, at the beginning of the Chinese lantern, the German team and the English team made their debut at the Yokohama International Stadium to compete for the championship of this World Cup.
When the referee team led by Corina led the players to enter the field, Aldridge held his head and raised his chest with a smile.
The grandstand cheered thunderously, and fans from both England and Germany cheered the sky.
"The one-month World Cup finally came to the final peak matchup. The World Cup final 36 years ago was England and Germany. 36 years later, the two teams met again in the World Cup final. I believe this scene will make 36 years ago. The old fans who have witnessed England win the cup have tears in their eyes. For 36 years, for many people, it is the time of half a life. Once again seeing the England team standing on the stage of the World Cup finals, how can it not burst into tears?"
"Martin, don’t be sensational. Look at the young handsome in England. At 26 years old, even if he was born ten years ago, he wouldn’t see the local champions. Look at him. He’s clearly smiling now, a natural smile, sure. It will make headlines again on the Fleet Street entertainment newspaper."
"Hahaha, understandably, understandably, the seat of the England coach is not easy to sit, the pressure has always been great, and there are fleets staring every day, the pressure of public opinion is even greater! Aldrich Hall can be conscientious and can put down All the pressure, the England he created, is destined to stay in the hearts of English fans forever!"
"Gary, let’s talk about the specifics of this game? You will definitely say that Hall will have a way to deal with the German team, right? Like the World Preliminaries, that is, more than half a year ago, we didn’t kill the German team in Munich. Really? For more than half a year, the German team has not significantly improved or improved, but England is making rapid progress."
Reinkel hesitated for a while, but worriedly said: "If there is no match in the World Preliminaries, I would say that England has won a lot, and the Germans have their own pride. They have no personal experience. They will not be because of Sweden, Argentina, Turkey, etc. Waiting for the failure of these teams gave a high glance to England, but because of the fiasco at home in the World Preliminaries, how could Waller be cautious? And, there are lessons for Brazil."
"Brazil? What happened to Brazil?"
"Brazil's such a gorgeous and powerful offense, failed to win England. Although it may be lost once again, England won four days ago. Can the German team play the offensive like the Brazilian team? Certainly not. That is to say, they will definitely not take the initiative to attack again. I am worried that they may be like Argentina in 90 years, defending in the final and stealing England's counterattack."
"Anti-anti-anti-anti-anti-anti? See who made the mistake? See who has the better offense and defense conversion ability? This is possible, but the German team lacks Barack, I really can't take a closer look at their offense, lack of brain, the strength is greatly reduced what."
After playing the national anthem, the narrator introduced the starting list of both parties.
England starts with 4321.
Goalkeeper: Seaman.
Defenders: Phil Neville, Campbell, Southgate, Ashley Cole.
Midfielder: Beckham, Hargreaves, Lampard.
Front waist: McManaman, Scholes.
Forward: Owen.
German starting 352.
Goalkeeper: Kahn.
Guards: Link, Ramello, Metzelder.
Midfielders: Frings, Schneider, Harman, Jeremys, Bode.
Forwards: Klose, Neuville.
Looking at the strength of a team's paper strength, the first is the individual player's strength, and the second is the ability to distribute the players, and the overall rationality.
Why aren't the German team playing for this World Cup optimistic? First of all, this team started with 11 people. Except for Kahn, there are no world-class players. Only Barack is playing and becoming a world-class. No Barack is carrying the German team's offensive and defensive system. Without him. With 8 goals in 4 and semifinals, the German team could not reach the final, and thanks to Kahn’s performance behind the gods, while other players, like Schneider, can only be counted as first-class players, but Never less than world-class.
The distribution of players in various positions, the German team also counted the blood mold. First, the position of the central defender, Novotny, Warnes, and Remer were injured. The first two were not directly registered for the World Cup. Before the Remer final It took 45 minutes to play, but no, it was cheaper that Millwall teenager Metzelder took the ride and became the main defender of the German team, and another center defender Ramello was originally a midfielder. It was just that Waller pulled back and temporarily hit the defender. Flins was also a midfielder, but he was placed on the sideline. From time to time, he had to work as a guard. This felt like a patchwork.
And the players who occupy the main force of the national team, the technically talented players are really rare. Schneider has been playing as a full-back in Millwall for a long time. He dare not say that he will fight for the top three in UEFA, but the right-back is in this position. His comprehensive offensive and defensive abilities can certainly make it into the top ten, but he was still pushed up by Waller to play as an avant-garde, and even occasionally came to play as a winger. Why?
No one!
On the technical ability at the foot, who is better than Schneider on the German team? Can't find it!
It can be seen how bleak the talent gap in this period of the German team. This problem has long been recognized by the big players in German football, and they have begun to brew reforms. This is only ten years later.
Just looking at today's starting strength comparison, England really deserves to win the championship, talking about talent, Scholes, McManaman, Irving, Beckham and so on, not to mention that the power definitely overshadows the other, at least diversity, comprehensive Sex, it is stronger than the German team, the defense system is also very complete, it should be the central defender is the central defender, it should be the full-back is the full-back.
The opponents of the German team's first six games were: Saudi Arabia, Ireland, Cameroon, Paraguay, the United States, and South Korea.
There is no opponent with first-class strength in international football. It only lost 1 goal in 6 games. It seems that the defense is super strong. In fact, it is too much water. The test is not the first one. Kahn’s god-level play is the second one. Kahn, changing the goalkeeper, the German team gave the opponent some excellent opportunities in this field. I am afraid that the city gates have long been used as a sieve. Of course, because of Kahn’s excellent performance, almost every game is praised as Heroes, on the other hand, look like England and Brazil, and the defense is not bad. Especially after entering the knockout, the goalkeeper can't grab the limelight.
The head referee became the focus, indicating that the game was controversial.
The goalkeeper becomes the focus, indicating that there is a problem with the defense.
With the whistle of Corina, the highly anticipated finals kicked off.
England took the lead, Scholes just brought the ball to the front waist, and was directly knocked to the ground by Jeremys. Corina blew the whistle to signal Jeremys foul, but Jeremys this The action is not rough, but it is not sloppy. It doesn't matter if you give it or not. Corina didn't give it.
No one else knew. Jeremys pointed a finger at Scholes when he got up, slightly crossed a line, and said viciously to Scholes: "Dare to cross this line and tell you to crawl back!"
His voice can only be heard by him and Scholes. That tone is really domineering!
Scholes was not angry, when he stood up, he stared at Jeremys inexplicably, and raised his mouth in disdain.
"What are you laughing laughing?"
Jeremys didn't stop, staring at Scholes, as if the other party didn't know what to do, let him lie on the ground again!
Mo said that Scholes had a villain Keane in the club. In the Premier League, this move is simply normal.
Start to scare you first!
Scholes played against Makelele, Vieira, Gattuso and other fierce men who actually attacked and defended. Will they fear Jeremys?
Moreover, do you just feel that the other party is getting an axe in the class gate, or is it an aggressive move?
Isn't this too small?
Not to mention, during the heyday, Jeremys really dared to fight against Vieira and Keane, but now, he is quite a bit strong and hard-working, of which the bitterness is probably only known by him.
In the past two years, due to injury, stop and stop, the state has dropped significantly, and the club has been usurped by Hargreaves. In the national team, it is only this time to play in the World Cup. In the first 6 games, except playing Paraguay, he played 90 Minutes, the remaining 5 games add up to less than 90 minutes. If Barak is not suspended, I am afraid he will not get his start in the finals.
The physical state is dragged down by injury, and without continuous healthy body, the competitive state will naturally decline. This double impact, Jeremy knows that if he is a fart, he may really be unable to stop the sky-high England, Scole. Si's threat in the frontcourt was obvious. After the opening, he threatened Scholes with the risk of eating cards, which really frightened the opponent, even if he ate a yellow card, he earned!
However, he obviously underestimated Scholes, the head simply ignored him, the opponents who clamored on the mouth saw more, can't say how bad they were, there were natural wicked people, but not many, there were sunny spring and snow on the football field, naturally There are also the top three players who have gone through a lot of battles. Who hasn't tried to be provoked and provoked by opponents?
A sentence or two will make you angry. If you have black feet, don't you want to kill people directly?
This is not a quality, it is just used to it.
After the opening, England did not attack strongly, and the posture was more aggressive than before, but the overall formation was not overwhelming. The back and forth was to run back and forth to attack by the trio of the frontcourt, left and right, sometimes fast, sometimes slow.
This is a temptation to see how the German team's defensive strategy and how the offensive and defensive system works today.
Aldridge watched the game for about 10 minutes and roughly understood the German team's formation today.
Waller must be pragmatic. The 352 still looks like the 352 slaughtered by England in Munich. However, it is not the case. The first thing is that they do not take the initiative to attack. They really want to catch England's counterattack.
There are many reasons for not attacking. The most important thing is that they do not have a midfielder brain. Jeremys and Harman. It is good to have a calm and stable ball after a successful defense, but it can rise to the position war organization, then the strongman will be difficult. Shi Ned is also mainly on the sidelines, so the German team can only fight back, the overall limitations are too great.
Another point is that this 352 is actually switching between 442. Coincidentally, Waller doesn’t take Senegal’s 5 defender or Turkey’s 3 defender. He puts out a 352, but the actual defense is 442. The England single On the side of the attack, which is where McManaman is, they will shrink on the side and keep a sufficient number of midfielders to prevent England’s midfield from plugging in, and Klose and Neuville, saying yes The striker and the true defense all retreated to the half. The overall unity of the Germans is evident.
Aldrich has said many times that in the future a team of football can only have at most one person not participating in the defense, and the top strong teams are no exception. Today, the German team, in fact, all members participate in the defense, when catching the counterattack, 30 M Sprint, the German team's double forward still has a good ability.
Aldridge smiled, the other side was pragmatic, England can be conservative, but he did not let the team go conservative.
Since they all gambled into the finals, how can they be stingy?
Gamble with the German team.
