my team is going to attack

Chapter 144 A Cloud Piercing Arrow (for Subscription)

After four rounds of the Premier League, Chelsea and Manchester City are the only two teams that can win consecutive victories. Manchester City now also ranks first in the league with the advantage of goal difference.

Ferguson's team is a little slow to heat up, with two wins and two draws, and can only get 6 points, while Wenger has three wins and one draw, with 10 points. In addition, Liverpool and Tottenham are a bit miserable, with only one score in the first four rounds. match wins.

After four league rounds, it seems that Chelsea and Manchester City are still the same as last season, their strength has not weakened, and their offensive firepower is still so strong, but these two teams seem to be two extremes.

Chelsea's team is dominated by veterans. Drogba, Anelka, Malouda and others have taken up the banner of Chelsea's offense this season, especially Drogba, who scored hat-tricks and assisted in the first two rounds of the league. hat trick.

Old and strong, Drogba still looks like a player who can compete for the league's top scorer this season.

As for Manchester City, this is a young team and there are veterans in the team, but more young players are the majority. Now many Premier League fans want to see who is better between Chelsea and Manchester City.

In the end is Chelsea stronger or Manchester City more courageous.

But now the UEFA Champions League group stage is about to start. In the top four of the Premier League, Manchester City will attack first. Manchester City will go to Germany to play against Werder Bremen, while Manchester United will play against Glagos Rangers at home.

Bremen is also a veteran team in the Bundesliga. Although the Bundesliga teams have always lived under the rule of the South King, there will always be a peasant uprising in one or two periods, and Bremen is qualified to revolt. one of the teams.

Especially their current head coach Thomas Schaff.

He joined the Bremen youth team in 1972, joined the Bremen coaching staff in 1987, and announced his retirement as a player in 1995. That's right, he received two salaries in Bremen during his player days, and his player career has never been There have been no transfers.

Beginning in 1999, Thomas became the head coach of Bremen's first team. More than ten years later, Thomas is still the head coach of Bremen.

Most of Bremen's historical honors have Thomas.

During his time as a player and coach, Thomas won three Bundesliga titles, five German Cup titles and a European Cup Winners' Cup for the team.

In Bayern, Schalke 04, Dortmund dominated the Bundesliga, Thomas abruptly killed a way for Bremen. In Bremen, Thomas Schaff is the number one historical figure of the team. There is Klose who is more familiar to everyone.

Su Bai doesn't know much about the current Werder Bremen team. The ones he is more familiar with may be the two players they introduced this summer, the veteran Pizarro from Chelsea, and the young player Arnautovic from Inter Milan.

Yes, that is Anautovich.

It's just that the roster for this game, without these two people, it is impossible to play the game, and most of their starting players, Su Bai only met recently.

The goalkeeper is Wiese;
At the back, Pasanin, Prodl, Sylvester and Fritz;

Midfielders Ana-Obier, Frings, Balfred, Fosley;

Forwards Almer and Marin.

Originally, their main midfielder Ozil was called by Real Madrid and left for La Liga. Now the midfielder should be Marin as the core of the frontcourt. This time, Su Bai also saw last year's Premier League opponent Sylvester. He was still in the Arsenal team this season, but he didn't want him to come to Bremen.

After losing the star player Ozil, this Werder Bremen team is very dim. After the start of the new season, they have played a total of three rounds of the league, with one win, one draw and one loss. The last round happened to be an away draw with Bayern. , and Manchester City and this game, they may not be at their best.

On Su Bai's side, the formation is similar to the last round of the league, goalkeeper Joe Hart;

Defenders Baines, Cahill, Henderson and Maicon;
Midfielders Cambiasso, Milner, Rakitic, Bell, Royce;

The striker is Ibrahimovic.

Su Bai only made two changes in personnel. Both central defender Kompany and winger Joe Cole felt a little unwell during training in the middle of the week. For the sake of safety, they were not arranged to start. Dessen and Royce started.

Especially Royce, when he was abandoned by the Dortmund youth team, he tried out in major German teams, but no Bundesliga club was willing to take him in. This time he returned to Germany, he wanted to return home.

The referee looked at his watch and it was time.

beep!

Manchester City's first UEFA Champions League group match started at the Weser Stadium in Germany. This stadium can accommodate 42000 people. Barbed wire, and fans can enter with huge banners, is also a major feature of Bundesliga stadiums.

I don't know much about the opponent's situation, so Su Bai asked the players to play their own football. We don't care what the opponent is, and we play what we are best at. It depends on God's will to win or lose.

What are the characteristics of Manchester City? Thomas Schaff has learned about them. They like to press the whole court, like to counter-attack on the spot, attack fast, defend with iron blood, and have a lot of defensive counterattacks. Well, Bremen also has its own defensive methods. .

Controlling the ball, controlling the ball in the midfield, of course they want to be in the frontcourt, but how could Manchester City's players give up the frontcourt.

In the 3rd minute, Garin made a mistake in passing the ball in midfield. After Cambiasso stole the ball, he distributed it to Royce on the wing. He stopped the ball, turned around, and shook away the defensive player Frings, facing Balfour who came to defend. Reid, Royce did not choose to divide the ball and cut inside, but dribbled the ball straight down the side.

Balfred's speed is definitely not as fast as Royce's, and his turn is still slow. When he wanted to chase, Royce was already two bodies away from him. In the eyes of the fans now, the opponent The young players are too fast and too determined, and they just let it go without any hesitation.

After hitting the bottom, the captain found the right time to pass in the middle. Ibrahimovic failed to grab the ball in the defense of Sylvester and others, but was hugged by goalkeeper Weize.

"I got the information of the opponent's No. 11 young player here, Marco Reus, he is still a German, a player born in 1989, who debuted in Dortmund's youth training camp," the current commentator asked loudly, "Is the demand for our German players so high? There is no team in Germany that wants such a young player with such good speed and touch. If it weren't for the opponent's head coach Su, we might lose a talented player."

The Bremen fans were also whispering, "I'll go, is this young player from our country?"

"Yeah, I haven't heard of it."

"You are behind, you, last season that Royce has already made a name for himself, you just don't know."

"His speed is too fast, Balfred is overtaken by the opponent like a stake."

"Do you think he still has a chance to return to Bundesliga football?"
-
It's not just the fans who have doubts. Thomas is also very surprised. How can a player like Royce not find a team in Germany? He has speed and skills. Although he looks young now, his potential has already been shown. .

Werder Bremen's midfielder did not press too high, knowing that the opponent would not allow them to easily control the ball in the frontcourt, they just controlled the ball in their own midfield in the backcourt, and the transfer between players was faster a little.

Thomas's idea is very good. If his players can control the ball well, keep the ball in the first half, and let the opponent come over to press, the cooperation between the players can only be done well, and the accuracy of passing will be improved.The physical exertion of the Manchester City players is a little bit bigger, and then the second half is the time to attack by themselves.

Of course it is a good idea. Many teams in the Premier League think so. The problem is that few teams can control the ball well under the pressure of Manchester City. If there is a pass error, then it is giving Manchester City a chance. ?
In the 10th minute, Garin took a long-range shot from outside the penalty area, testing Hart. The latter did not dare to underestimate it. He lifted the ball out of the baseline with a single palm and gave them their first corner kick of the game.

This is Werder Bremen's chance and Manchester City's chance.

Fosley took a corner kick, Cahill jumped high in the penalty area and pushed the ball out of the danger zone, Ibrahimovic hit the ribs with his unfamiliar header at the top of the penalty area, and there was a large open area in front of him , Bell's speed is very fast, and he started to catch up with the ball in an instant.

Take a step forward, without the interference of defensive players, now he can use his favorite offensive method, striding forward, there are three players in the backcourt of Bremen, Pasanin and Frings came up first, the right one Royce followed, and Sylvester watched in the middle.

Two-on-three in the frontcourt, this is an opportunity for Manchester City, especially when Bell and Royce have already opened up the speed, it is difficult to stop.

Pasanin was impulsive. Seeing that Bell had already passed the midfield, he directly tackled him from the front. If the ball couldn't reach him, he would bring him down. But Bell didn't give him a chance. He jumped up with the ball. Passed Pasanin, but the ball was a little far away from him, and Frings also came up.

Time was running out, and Bell didn't stop the ball. He glanced at Royce, and before Frings broke it, Bell fell to the ground and passed the ball.

High-altitude ball, Royce watched the ball while staring at Sylvester, he could not stop the ball, as long as he stopped the ball, the opponent would not give him another chance to break through, the ball began to fall, and it was still two meters away from the penalty area, In the upper left corner outside the penalty area line.

Sylvester glanced at the ball, but focused more on Royce. He could only stop the ball, and he could be close to him when he stopped the ball. Sylvester stepped back and watched , as long as the ball hits the ground, he will pounce on it.

In the eyes of everyone, the ball crossed an arc, flew from the right side of the penalty area to the left side, dropped, dropped.

Royce adjusted his steps forward, and Sylvester no longer retreated, but moved forward, and he was close to the body.

There was a movement that surprised everyone. Royce leaned forward, his right foot was rooted on the lawn, but his left foot was lifted up. Before the ball hit the ground, it hit the back of his instep hard. Sylvester's ear flew by, and Royce also fell to the ground after the shot was completed. He didn't get up, he wanted to look at the ball.

Bell passed the ball very fast, and Royce shot the goal very hard. Added up, the ball didn't have much time to fly in the air. Wiese didn't think that the opponent would use such a shot choice, and his reaction was a bit slow. And the ball hit his far corner.

I saw the ball passing by the goal, Wei Ze had already jumped the highest, and his hand was stretched to the end, but the ball still passed in front of his hand and bypassed Wei Ze.

"Oh!"

Hit the inside of the goal and bounces into the net.

"Wow——" "This ball——" "It's amazing!" "How did you kick it out?" "How did he do it?" "Why did he dare to do this?"——
The commentator and the current fans are already incoherent, and the few Manchester City fans are happy, and let out their loudest voices, so that these Germans can hear our voices.

The moment the ball went in, Su Bai opened his mouth wide open. This was an action that could compete for the best goal of the season.

A cloud-piercing arrow, thousands of troops meet each other.

Breaking through the Bremen night sky is the German teenager Reuss.

After scoring the goal, Royce also stood still and raised his hands. At this moment, his expression was ferocious, and he was letting go. God knows that when he was abandoned by Dortmund and the entire Bundesliga did not accept him, the young Royce was at that moment. How broken, how desperate.

Today, in front of his parents and fellow villagers, he has achieved it, and he is on his way to success.

Bell and the others rushed over excitedly, hugged Royce high, and let him enjoy the applause of the fans. Yes, his goal touched the fans of Bremen. Stand up and applaud him.

At this moment, Royce cried, and he really cried.

When returning to the halftime, I deliberately came to Su Bai and hugged Su Bai tightly, "Thank you, coach, thank you."

Looking at his red eyes, Su Bai could feel the excitement in Royce's heart, and patted him on the shoulder, "Go, you can do better." Pushing Royce back to the court.

Falling behind 0:1, Thomas hesitated a bit. The team became the one behind after only 12 minutes of the game. This is troublesome. If you want to win this game, you must attack. It is impossible to get points for keeping.

Although he has more experience in the Champions League than Manchester City in Bremen, but in terms of strength, Manchester City and Inter Milan will be the two strongest teams in the group. If they want to get out of their encirclement, a direct confrontation is To get points, even one point is fine, after all, the opponent only needs one point.

Offensive or defensive?
Thomas also fell into a time when many coaches would be entangled, thinking for a long time, and the Bremen players on the field saw that the coach did not make a sound, so they played according to the pre-match arrangement, or controlled the ball in the midfield.

However, Su Bai made a change. He started to reduce the team's pressing. How could he not see that Thomas wanted to consume his physical energy, but now that the team has taken the lead, the problem is thrown to Thomas.

When Thomas saw Manchester City's formation retreating, he knew what the opponent was planning, "This little clever ghost."

There was no way, Thomas had to call the players loudly.
