Ace Young Marshal

Chapter 316 Fission, sinner

Schalke 04 fans looked disappointed. After the winter break, Schalke 04 did not look as good as the performance in the closing stage of the first half.

Magath doesn't know whether he is acting out of anger or his life. Today's lineup looks completely out of balance.

It is easy to think of Real Madrid back then, with a bunch of offensive players in front, and each defense has its destiny.

Schalke 04 has been unable to effectively undertake the task of offensive organization in the middle, so only two wings are left to create opportunities.

To say that Schalke 04 is absolutely useless because of the imbalance of offense and defense, it must be biased.

It's just that the flaws are too obvious, and the chances of winning are not too great.

In the 30th minute of the game, when Kanter rushed to the winger and Azpilicueta helped defend Farfan in the backcourt, the latter directly sent a 45-degree pass.

Edu did not win in the header competition, but Boateng's header was not far away. The football landed on the right side of the penalty area. Raul appeared on the spot where the football landed. Rakitic, then sent a diagonal ball.

The pass was really just right. Huntelaar rushed past compatriot Mattison to complete the anti-offside. He rubbed the instep in the left rib area of ​​​​the penalty area without making adjustments. The football crossed an inner arc and hit the dead corner of the goal!

Navas did not stage a miraculous save this time, and he was powerless!

Huntelaar turned around and ran towards the middle circle with a blank expression. Even after scoring a goal, the Schalke 04 generals seemed somewhat nervous.

Perhaps they themselves know that it will not be easy to complete the reversal in this game.

"Hunterel hits Raul through and finishes!
Schalke 04 pulled one back!
Hamburg's defensive aggression is slightly insufficient, but Schalke 04's huge offensive force to form a containment cannot be ignored.

The score became 1:2, can Schalke 04 equalize the score in the first half in one go? "

Magath looks like the person who is most encouraged by the goal. He nodded and applauded on the sidelines, as if telling everyone that his formation was correct to a certain extent, but the outside world couldn't understand it. Now he scored a goal. Proved him right.

Situ Yunbing made gestures to the disciples on the court, asking them to strengthen the counter-attack in the midfield and backcourt, and at the same time, the enthusiasm of the frontcourt players to return to defense should be improved!

With a two-goal lead, Hamburg is indeed a little relaxed. This relaxation is not because it doesn't care about the game, but because of the decline in defensive investment!
This is also human nature. A young team will always need to repeatedly correct and improve on certain issues. If this stage is passed, the future of the team will be unlimited.

The sense of urgency in the Hamburg team was once again strengthened by the shortened lead.

When Schalke 04 also tried their best to win the game back, Hamburg's accelerated pace of oppressive play caused Schalke 04 to suffer a catastrophe!
In the 38th minute of the game, Hamburg set off an offensive frenzy at the Schalke Stadium!
Elia responded to Rakitic's pass from the right and faced Schmitz with a dribble and turned inward. He tried a long shot 25 yards from the goal!

The football is blocked by defender Metzelder outstretching his leg.

The football flew to the side. Azpilicueta seized the ball before Farfan and then pushed forward to launch a threatening offensive again. After passing De Bruyne in the middle, the ball was quickly transferred to Royce on the left. .

Royce was counter-robbed by Hewedes, and after a quick ball, he cut into the left side of the penalty area. Rakitic hit the wall at the front of the penalty area to cooperate and then sent the ball to Royce's running line.

Little Rocket shot furiously from the left side of the restricted area!

Neuer blocked the near corner of the goal and barely blocked the ball with his body. Even Neuer couldn't directly hug the ball.

The blocked football flew out of the penalty area. The midfielder Moritz was on the flight path of the football. He could not avoid it and subconsciously stretched his legs to stop the ball. However, the ball that had just unloaded in front of him was caught by his side as soon as it hit the ground. De Bruyne, who rushed past, walk away!

The 20-year-old Moritz seems to have stopped the ball to De Bruyne!
De Bruyne, who took advantage of the trend and rushed the ball forward into the penalty area, attracted more than 04 Schalke players to surround him. Griezmann was in an offside state. .

When Matip reacted, he stopped and turned around to intercept, but found that his former teammate Rakitic had passed the ball from the side and pushed forward and broke through the entire defense line!

De Bruyne's pass was impeccable, and Rakitic easily won a one-handed chance.

Facing his teammate Neuer not long ago, Rakitic calmly pushed the bottom right corner of the goal. Neuer jumped to the extreme but failed to touch the football!

Proudly went to the Schalke Stadium for an instant!
"Wow! Rakitic pushed past the gate of his old club!

Hamburg has given people a crazy sense of sight in the past few minutes. They have raised the rhythm to the point where Schalke 04 is at a loss. Left, center, right, long pass, short pass, long shot, pass and cut cooperation , Then attack, as long as they want, they can use various ways to threaten the opponent's goal!

Elia's shot was blocked, Reus's shot was rejected by Neuer, but when Rakitic went into the penalty area and was unmarked, no one could stop Hamburg's goal from being born.

I have to say that Hamburg played more pleasing and passionate!

They extended their lead to two goals again.

The score became 1:3."

Schalke 04 saw the scene they least expected to happen!
Less than ten days after Rakitic's transfer and departure, he staged a murder of the old master!
Rakitic didn't celebrate, not even a smile.

Leaving Schalke 04 is a foregone conclusion, but after all, he has fought here in the past. At this time, both emotional and reasonable should give the most basic respect to the fans who supported him in the past.

Situ Yunbing didn't applaud either. He was not surprised by the team's offensive frenzy after successive pressures.

The addition of Rakitic has made Hamburg's midfield more dynamic, and this vitality is reflected in the speed and level of the connection between the midfield and the frontcourt.

In the past, whether it was Hamburg's counterattack or fast break, if De Bruyne can play the role of long-pass precision guidance, then Hamburg's offensive speed will be very fast, because the striker can directly face the opponent's back.

But when De Bruyne was blocked, someone on the front line had to retreat in a large area, or retreat collectively, and the attack could exceed 40 yards to form a threat.

This process will give the opponent a certain amount of time to adjust the defense line and reduce the success rate of Hamburg's attack.

But it’s different now. De Bruyne and Rakitic first have a front and rear level of position. If you can pass the ball to De Bruyne and let him organize a threatening offensive at the first time, then let him come. His position is not good. Okay, pass the ball to Rakitic, the difference is that De Bruyne can send through balls more frequently in front, and Hamburg's striker can have a higher probability of facing the opponent's goalkeeper!
And Rakitic brings more unsurprising but very stable shots, which can allow Hamburg to improve the efficiency of changes and transfer offenses in the organizational link.

To put it simply, the opponent used to mark De Bruyne, which basically reduced most of Hamburg's fast-break threat, but now even if De Bruyne is marked, and Rakitic, this is enough to ensure that Hamburg's striker can Put more energy on rushing forward in the fast break, instead of retreating frequently!

Even though it has been a long time, Situ Yunbing still can't get rid of Royce's frequent retreat in some key games in the first half of the season, which can be seen everywhere in the midfield.

That highlighted Royce's ability and his team spirit, but it also showed the shortcomings of Hamburg's offense from another angle. Since then, he has been thinking about how to solve this problem until Rakitic joined!
Therefore, it is meaningless to simply look at Rakitic's personal ability. The effect he brought is to make Hamburg's attack group in the frontcourt show a fission-level improvement!

This is not due to Rakitic's personal strength, it is just a matter of order. If Hamburg had Rakitic before and De Bruyne arrived in the winter transfer, the latter can also bring this effect.

Sequentially, Rakitic's arrival and integration into the team is a milestone for Situ Yunbing to complete the last piece of the puzzle.

Even though building a team requires consideration of all aspects, the work of the head coach is not simply devoted to the technical and tactical aspects, but at least from now on, Situ Yunbing can temporarily ignore the technical and tactical issues of the team and focus on More focus on improving the connotation of the team and adjusting the state of the team.

The strength of Hamburg made the Schalke 04 strikers a little disheartened. They didn't have many opportunities, and they always had the idea of ​​gnashing their teeth and fighting for a bloody road, but the fragility of the team's defense in the backcourt made them There will also be another thought: No matter how hard you work, it is meaningless.

Schalke 04 has not reached the picturesque offensive level in the frontcourt, but it is definitely worthy of the evaluation of the back defense.

Draxler and Moritz deserve more sympathy. Magath is too cruel. Let 20-year-old and 17-year-old young players partner in vain to support Schalke 04's midfield. There may be no more than 5 Bundesliga teams The team was able to make their combination gain a firm foothold. The other teams are definitely similar to Hamburg, bullying and ravaging them like wolves!

At the end of the first half, the score was 1:3. Schalke lost 04:1 to Hamburg in the Volksparkstadion in the 5 season opener. In the first game of the second half of the season, they seem likely to replicate that score.

The fans of Schalke 04 have had enough of Magath's unrestrained and reckless behavior. The past five months have constantly tested the bottom line of their patience. Now, they have chosen to speak out against Magath.

The boos against the Magath wave were deafening!
You must know that since Schalke 93 returned to the Bundesliga in 04, they have only ranked after the top 10 in the league for two seasons, and they have not dropped out of the top five in the past seven seasons!

However, Schalke 04 has been in the relegation zone for a long time this season. Even if there is a rebound, they have not been able to enter the top 10 ranks. Gat has become a condemned sinner!
