Chapter 448 Huo Village's Miraculously Transformed Freeman Tactic (1)

The last time Hoffenheim participated in the final of the DFB-Pokal was just a well-known Bundesliga team. Once again, Hoffenheim came to the Olympiastadion in Berlin. Hoffenheim has become famous all over the world, and there are portraits of Hoffenheim players everywhere , Berlin has sprung up countless Hoffenheim fans and fan supplies stores within a year. Bayern Munich fans formed a stark contrast like sea water and flames.

A year ago, Hoffenheim was in the huge shadow of Stuttgart, the Bundesliga champion. A year ago, Li Huan, Eduardo, Ibisevic and others were still juniors in the Bundesliga. A year later, Li Huan entered the top 5000 for the European Ballon d'Or and World Footballer of the Year. Become a big star worth [-] million.

A year has changed many things, but all Hoffenheim fans hope that one thing never changes, and that is the championship.

Since the German Cup final team is the world-renowned Bayern and the world-shocking super dark horse Hoffenheim, so many fans, journalists and celebrities from all over the world came to watch the game, so that the Olympic Stadium that can accommodate more than 7 people The VIP box cannot even be reserved.

Zwanziger, chairman of the German Football Association, the three giants of Bayern Beckenbauer, Rummenigge, and Hoeness, and the three giants of Hoffenheim Hope, Rothaus, and Schindelmaizer all came to the scene to watch the game.There were two other eye-catching people in the stands. Although they tried their best to avoid the gaze of others, they still did not escape the reporter's camera.One of these two is Russian rich man Abramovich, and the other is Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger.

The presence of these two celebrities surprised the fans and reporters at the scene, because they did not have any league matches with the German Cup final, and they had never heard that these two were fans of German football, so everyone realized that these two This person may be here to observe the players. From Abramovich's perspective, there are only three players in the two teams who can catch his eyes, Ribery, Lahm and Li Huan. Many fans speculate that Abramovich is Come to observe Li Huan. With Chelsea's wealth and wealth, they have the strength and desire to buy Li Huan.

The purpose of Wenger's arrival obviously confuses everyone. Wenger is dubbed Shotacon by fans, because he only likes to buy young people with great potential, train them into superstars, and then sell them.The purpose of his coming to the Olympic Stadium is hardly for Li Huan, who is worth 500 million, and Ribery, who is worth about 3000 million.

Sauer came to the explanation site as a guest. After seeing Wenger, he smiled and said: "Did our professor see another young lady? Bayern and Hoffenheim have very good young people. The post-[-]s There are also two geniuses, Hoffenheim's Streiff, Bayern's Toni. Kroos's future is very bright, but Wenger, rather than spending a lot of money on the training of reserve talents, might as well buy Li Huan." Shao I think that what Arsenal lacks now is a final scorer, and Li Huan can help Arsenal fulfill their long-cherished wish that they have not fulfilled.

The referee for this game is Meyer. The referee is the lucky star of Bayern Munich. The last time Bayern participated in the German Cup final was Meyer. In that game, Bayern defeated Schalke 04 and won the 13th goal. Champion of the German Cup.

With the whistle of the referee, the much-anticipated game kicked off.

Compared with the first time they played against Hoffenheim, Bayern Munich has made a lot of adjustments in the starting lineup. The most obvious is that the original two strikers have become three strikers, and Klose sat on the bench. , the fast Schroedraf and the physically and technically skilled Podolski Prince Podolski appeared on the front line. The appearance of the winger can pass the high center forward Tony, and can also cut inside to shoot. Bayern's change is a bit stealing from Hoffenheim. This is also the biggest change Hitzfeld made against Hoffenheim. Ribery Being placed in the position of the attacking midfielder is the second change of Heathfield. The Frenchman's technique is very good. He can play both the winger and the attacking midfielder.

In this way, Bayern Munich's formation has become 4213. This is not a common formation for Bayern. This formation is a change to deal with Hoffenheim.

Hoffenheim did not change much from the lineup they played against Bayern in the previous game. Only the injured Jaisle became Simunić, Ibisevic sat on the bench because of his initial recovery from injury, Wehring Dayton replaced him on the left.

The two teams are familiar with each other. After the game started, the confident Hoffenheim launched a fierce attack on Bayern, and Bayern still played very calmly, coping with Hoffenheim without any hassle. Mu's offense, but their two wingers, Schroedraff and Podolski, were obviously recovered to the midfield when Hoffenheim was attacking, and only Tony had an arrow at the front.

Podolski, who is strong and fast, has been dissatisfied since he came to Bayern Munich from Cologne. He has not scored three goals in almost a season. He almost sat on the bench under the shadow of Klose and Toni, but because of Heathfield had to deal with Li Huan, and Podolski got rid of the fate of being a substitute and became the main force in the starting lineup.

Although Podolski's shooting skills are average and his technique is not very good, Weiss has nothing to do with him, because Podolski is better than Weiss in terms of body and speed, and Weiss can deal with skills far better than him Franck Ribery, but was eaten to death by Podolski, which can be regarded as one thing and one thing.

Li Huan stepped forward for an assist at the beginning, but seeing that Podolski was watching him very closely, and after he went up, Weiss couldn't withstand Podolski's impact in the backcourt, allowing Podolski to Franck Ribery on the wing and the front midfielder formed an echo. The two consecutive side-to-side and side-to-side shots caused great difficulties for Hoffenheim's defense. Fortunately, there is an experienced central defender. With Simunić and Hildebrand in the goalkeeper, Hoffenheim's defensive strength has greatly increased, and Ribery and Tony did not knock on Hoffenheim's defense.

On the other side, Schroedraf was originally a player from Aachen. After being acquired by Bayern Munich, he had the same illness as Podolski and could only sit on the bench. However, his strength is not inferior to Podolski. He has different characteristics from Klose and Tony. His dribbling and speed are his deadly weapons. His attack on the wing makes Ibetsberg so busy that he has no time to attack.

Not long after the opening, Rangnick found that the opponent's new tactics restrained Hoffenheim, the attack of the two full-backs could not be realized, and Bayern Munich's backcourt seemed to have two midfielders Van Bommel and Ze Roberto who seldom assisted. It is very three-dimensional. Their zone-marking defense at the front of their penalty area makes it difficult for Hoffenheim's Eduardo, Demba Ba, and Obasi to create an offensive threat.

The four-back formation has been popular in the German league for a long time, but it is mainly zone defense, and the combination of zone and man-marking is rarely used,” because zone-marking defense has a big loophole. Forward. The left space needs to be filled by others. At the front of the penalty area, it is usually filled by another central defender or a full-back next to it. The position left by the central defender or full-back is finally filled by his own midfielder.

In this way, even if "one person makes a mistake", there are other people who can take it up.Such a zone defense is good in theory.

But on the other hand, this kind of defensive system is too complicated. There are many people involved in football. If there are so many replacements in one area, and the opponent continuously passes the ball down, the defensive players themselves will faint. Without high tactical literacy and years of tacit cooperation, it is difficult to achieve.Even after many years of cooperation and encountering an inferior team like Barcelona in La Liga, the defensive loopholes are still full of loopholes, so few teams adopt it.

However, the zone-marking defensive tactics adopted by Bayern today are different from the traditional zone-marking tactics.

Because Hoffenheim's striker pulls in this area in front of the penalty area, it is easy to cause confusion.In the face of this tactic, the method adopted by Heathfield is to reduce the attack of the two defensive midfielders and focus on man-marking.Make the responsibilities of defenders more "clear".This is very similar to the traditional German freeman tactics.Libero tactics set up two man-marking central defenders to focus on the opponent's forward. If the man-marking defense is in danger, the libero will immediately come to help defend.In this way, the man-marker is only responsible for man-marking, and the protector is only doing co-defense protection.The task is more specific and single.However, the tactic of two defensive midfielders marking people is safer than the free agent tactic, so that the defense will not be easily penetrated by the opponent when one person is inserted and unable to come back.

Facing Hitzfeld's modified free agent tactics, Hoffenheim's players didn't know how to deal with them. Their repeated impacts and repeated runs could never find Bayern's space, but Bayern's counterattack was because of the lack of space. Two speed wingers made Hoffenheim suffer.

Rangnick was also confused about this tactic for a while. He was not a coach with excellent tactical command like Mourinho. Rangnick was better at training and strategy, and his ability to adapt to the situation was not strong. To react, I just silently observed Bayern Munich's style of play, thinking hard about how to deal with it.
