Football feast, starting from the acquisition of European clubs

Chapter 467
In order to prepare for this crucial game for the Brazilian team, Chen Ran took out all the treasures at the bottom of the box.

He first used a "Level [-] Sight Card" for Diego Costa, and then used a "Free Kick Master Card" for Neymar.

Then, he gave Fernandinho and Ramirez, the two midfield barriers who played almost all of Brazil's games, each used a "Level [-] Blood Recovery Card" to ensure that they won't lose in this game. There is enough physical fitness in the game to assist the defense.

The opening of the game was very calm. Although the Brazilian team took the initiative to shrink their formation and adopt defensive counterattack tactics, the German team did not take the opportunity to press on a large-scale attack.

On the contrary, the German team only continued to conduct tentative attacks, and there were not many people involved in the attack. It seemed that they were very afraid of the Brazilian team's counterattack.

Therefore, when one of the two teams actively shrinks and the other is not eager to attack, the game naturally seems a bit dull.

But this situation was exactly what Chen Ran hoped to see.

In his memory, in his previous life, the Brazilian team was scored consecutively by the German team shortly after the start of the game, and then they were defeated like a mountain.

Now as long as the Brazilian team keeps the opening without conceding a goal, it means that the course of the game has been changed.What will happen later is not certain.

5 minute, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 10 minutes.
Seeing that the game has progressed to 10 minutes, the score on the field is still 0:0.Chen Ran on the sidelines couldn't help showing a satisfied smile on his face.

The assistant coaches next to Chen Ran looked at each other in confusion.

Boss what happened?
Is the score of 0:0 very happy?
The entire first half of the game was uneventful. After the opening test, Loew originally wanted to strengthen his offense.

However, Diego Costa and Neymar, who were left in front by the Brazilian team, hit two counterattacks fiercely and were almost scored. The goal was so frightened that Loew also quickly dismissed this idea.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, the score on the field remained at 0:0 without any change.

"I almost fell asleep after watching the first half of the game. Is the Brazilian team really planning to fight to the end?"

"Yeah. Damn it, I managed to get up and stay up late to watch the ball, and ended up showing me such a boring game. If I knew it, I might as well sleep well and watch the highlights tomorrow morning."

"Hehe, judging from the performance of the two teams in the first half of the game, it is estimated that the TV station does not know how to make highlights."

"I don't know what Chen Ran is thinking. Is the German team that terrible?"

"That's right. When Chen Ran led Crystal Palace to play Bayern Munich, the overlord of the Bundesliga, he won it easily. Now that he is leading the Brazilian team, why is he so afraid of the German team?"

"Hey, if the game continues like this, it is estimated that this game will be ugly."

"Maybe there will be extra time, or even a penalty kick."

"Forget it, after all, it is the World Cup every four years, and the result is the most important thing."

During the intermission, in the locker room of the Brazilian team, the mood of the players was generally not high.

There was no way, the Brazilian players who had already carved offense into their bones were also very uncomfortable with Chen Ran's conservative tactics.

Seeing this situation, Chen Ran knew that he had to do something.

"Guys, you guys played really well in the first half."

"I know, you don't like such a conservative tactic."

"However, I must remind everyone that this is the semi-final of the World Cup every four years. If there is a mistake, then everyone will have to wait another four years."

"Every player's career is limited, what will happen after four years, none of us know."

"So, we have to take advantage of the opportunity in front of us. Let me ask you a question, do you want to keep the World Cup winner in Brazil?"

"miss you!"

The deafening answer resounded throughout the locker room.

Seeing the eyes of the team members full of fighting spirit, Chen Ran nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that his skills in fighting chicken blood had improved.

On the German side, Loew couldn't help picking his nose.

The Brazilian team huddled in their own field for the entire first half of the game, which was something he did not expect.

He originally thought that after the Brazilian team stabilized their position in the opening stage, they would start to attack in accordance with their accustomed style of play.

But now it seems that the Chinese man has completely subverted the previous tactics of the Brazilian team, and he is preparing to defend to the end.

Although the German team now has a top goalkeeper like Neuer, kicking a penalty kick depends more on luck and there is too much uncertainty.

If it is not a last resort, Loew does not want to drag the game to the penalty kick stage.

After much deliberation, Loew called assistant coach Hans Flick to his side.

"Hans, you go and inform Podolski to warm up now. In the second half of the game, replace Khedira with him. The team's formation has also changed from 4231 to 442."

"With Podolski and Klose as a double striker, Toni Kroos and Schweinsteiger as a central midfielder."

"Okay, boss."

As soon as the second half started, Chen Ran saw the substitutions made by the German team.

Turning his head and glanced at the German team's bench not far away, Chen Ran knew in his heart that Loew was going to launch a general attack.

In the next game, the German team really increased their offensive intensity.

The whole team pressed forward and began bombing indiscriminately around the penalty area of ​​the Brazilian team.

In the backcourt, the German team left only two central defenders and one full-back to mark Diego Costa and Neymar, which gave Chen Ran hope of a successful counterattack.

In fact, Loew's arrangement was very meticulous. He let Boateng, who was faster and more flexible, be responsible for marking Diego Costa.

Then ordered the two full-backs Lahm and Hewedes not to participate in the offense at the same time, and one person must be left to mark Neymar.

In the end, let the experienced Hummels support in the center and help his teammates defend and make up for them at any time.

However, although Loew's arrangement was very careful, Chen Ran quickly found a loophole.

Taking advantage of the dead ball, Chen Ran quickly walked to the sidelines and called Alves who was closest to him.

"Dani, tell the others right away, when you hit a counterattack again, the ball will go to the German team's full-back to press the empty pass left after participating in the attack."

"Then tell Neymar to run to that position as well. Break through when he has the chance, and create more opportunities for free kicks in the frontcourt."

"Okay, boss."

After receiving Chen Ran's order, Alves immediately turned around and ran back to the field.

Soon, Loew saw the long balls of the Brazilian team playing counterattacks, and began to continuously pass to the empty positions left by their full-backs after pressing the attack.

As the full-back rushed to the frontcourt to participate in the attack, it was too late to return to the defense at this time, which led to Hummels, who was in charge of supporting the center, had to go up to make up the defense himself.

Hummels, who is 191cm tall, is far from being able to compare with Neymar in terms of speed and flexibility.

In desperation, Hummels had to take foul means to disrupt Neymar's breakthrough.

As a result, Brazil's frontcourt free kicks suddenly increased.

At the beginning, the place of the serve was far from the goal. Even Neymar, who used the "Free Kick Master Card", failed to score directly.

After all, Neuer is a top goalkeeper. Since the tee point is far from the goal, he has plenty of reaction time.

So Neymar's free kick was either hugged by Neuer or thrown away by him.

Loew also discovered Chen Ran's tactics at this time. In desperation, he could only order the two full-backs Lahm and Hewedes to stop pressing for assists and stay in the backcourt to help defend.

This time, two full-backs were in charge of man-marking Neymar on the front line, and Hummels finally didn't have to go around to fight the fire. The German team's defense line, which was a bit shaky just now, suddenly became much more stable.

Seeing Loew's adjustment, Chen Ran immediately walked to the sidelines again.

Taking advantage of the dead ball, he directly called Neymar over this time.

"Neymar, you then stare at the German team's left-back Hewedes to break through, and let other teammates also pass the ball behind Hewedes."

"This guy is 188cm tall. He is not your opponent in terms of speed or flexibility. After breaking through Hewedes, you decide whether to pass or shoot. Understand?"

"Understood, boss."

When Chen Ran was arranging tactics for Neymar, Loew, who had been secretly paying attention to the movement of the Brazilian team's bench, immediately discovered this situation.

As a well-known top coach in international football, Chen Ran's on-the-spot command ability has always been highly respected.

Seeing this scene, Lu Fu's heart tightened suddenly. Isn't this guy Chen Ran going to use some tricks again?

He has just filled the loopholes in the German team's defense line. Could it be that the opponent has found a new loophole so quickly?

While Loew was still guessing what move Chen Ran would use, Brazil goalkeeper Cesar hugged Klose's header tightly in his arms.

Then Cesar got up quickly and kicked the ball with a big foot behind the German left-back Hewedes.

When Hewedes went to chase the ball, a yellow figure suddenly rushed from behind him.

He looked at the number on the back of the yellow jersey, it was Neymar!
It's a pity that despite Hewedes' best efforts, the distance between him and Neymar has not narrowed, but has become wider and wider.

Just when Hewedes wanted to use foul tactics to bring Neymar down, Neymar had already got the ball one step ahead, made an inward cut, and cut directly into the penalty area of ​​the German team from in front of Hewedes .

This time, Hewedes not only did not dare to foul again, but braked quickly, for fear of hitting Neymar and being tricked into a penalty by the opponent.

Discovering that there was a problem with his defense on the left, Hummels had to rush to defend again.

However, because Neymar has now entered the penalty area, Hummels dare not foul again.He chose to block the line between Neymar and goalkeeper Neuer, waiting for other teammates to return to support.

Hummels wants to wait for teammates to support, but Neymar will not give him this opportunity.

Seeing Hummels in front of him, Neymar directly crossed the ball to Diego Costa in the middle of the penalty area, and then bypassed Hummels and continued to advance.

Diego Costa used his body to block Boateng, who was in charge of marking him, while observing Neymar's running position.

After discovering Neymar's intention to play a two-for-one with himself, Diego Costa did not stop the ball, but directly tapped it with his heel, and the ball just passed between Boateng's legs.

At this time, Neymar also happened to bypass Hummels and rushed over.

He took the ball away, and Neuer was the only one left in front of him.

Realizing that the situation was not good, Neuer quickly abandoned the door and attacked.

In order to expand the defensive area as much as possible, Neuer opened his hands and feet and rushed towards the ball at Neymar's feet.

Seeing Neuer's actions, Neymar didn't panic at all.With a light push on the arch of his right foot, the ball rolled into the net from between Neuer's wide-open legs, against the turf.

"GOAL!!!!!!"

After defending most of the game, the Brazilian team finally succeeded in counterattacking.With Neymar's light push, Brazil leads the German team 1:0.

"Oh!"

After more than an hour of dullness, the entire Mineiro Arena finally erupted.

Deafening cheers and shouts resounded through the sky.

"Fuck! Did this goal go through two wickets?"

"Hahahaha, you don't care how many goals it went through, anyway, the Brazilian team scored."

"Chen Ran is really awesome! Such a stupid tactic can score the first goal, and he can't accept it."

"Upstairs, have you forgotten how Chen Ran started his career in Crystal Palace?"

"That's right. Defense and counterattack, that's Chen Ran's housekeeping skill."

"Now those who question Chen Ran's tactics should have nothing to say, right?"

"Hehe, you underestimate the fighting power of those guys too much. Unless the Brazilian team finally wins the World Cup, there will definitely be someone to pick and criticize."

"Haha, then show them a championship, anyway, it's not like they haven't won it before."

Looking at the Brazilian players celebrating wildly on the field, Loew's face was ashen on the sidelines.

Now, Brazil's goal has pushed the German team to a cliff.

He has no choice but to attack.

After rubbing his nostril-picking fingers, Loew called assistant coach Hans Flick over again.

"Hans, you immediately arrange for Gotze and Schurrle to warm up, and later replace Hewedes and Schweinsteiger with them. The team's formation has also changed from 442 to 343."

"Klose as centre-forward, Podolski as left-winger, Schurrle as right-winger. Gotze as attacking midfielder and Toni Kroos as defensive midfielder."

"Ram plays with Hummels and Boateng as a back three, of which Lahm is responsible for marking Neymar."

"What? Joachim, isn't it too risky for you to adjust this way?"

Hans Flick couldn't believe his ears, did Loew completely ignore defense?
