Coaching legend

Before the game started, George didn't say much in the locker room. Instead, he arranged some tactics for this game. Although Dortmund has a more glorious history than Blackburn, and it won the Champions League just a few years ago. But facing the current Dortmund, George is very confident.

So there was a simple mobilization before the game.

When George followed the team into the stadium, he found that Sammer was already in the stadium early. Sammer, with golden hair and a serious expression, stood in the stadium like a statue.

When he saw George coming out, Sammer smiled. Then he shook hands with George.

This is the most outstanding "free man" in German football after Beckenbauer and Baresi. Free man, this tactical play has basically disappeared. Or Sammer is the last free man in German football.

Of course, it doesn't mean that there are no free men in German football after Sammer. It's just that the development of free men later was not smooth. The German free man tactics were the last glory when Sammer came here.

Beckenbauer, that is too far away. George had seen how Sammer, the last free man, created glory in the England European Cup. Therefore, he still retained a little respect for Sammer.

After a simple handshake, both of them followed their teams back to the bench.

"Tsk tsk tsk, German fans are really crazy."

This is the second time George has led the team to Germany. The last time was in the last round of the group stage, leading Blackburn to the Munich Olympic Stadium to challenge Bayern Munich. However, that game was the last game of the group stage, and both sides had already qualified from the group stage. So it was a completely tasteless game.

Therefore, there was not much feeling.

But now this game is an important game in the group stage.

George looked at the shouts of 60,000 fans in the Westfalen Stadium and shook his head. The madness of German fans is no less than that of English fans. Dortmund's Westfalen Stadium is famous in Germany.

The fan capacity is also among the best in German stadiums. But there is no space in the stadium at all, it is full of Dortmund fans. And they had been singing loudly and cheering for their team since 30 minutes before the game started.

"What a pity..."

George sighed.

George sighed, not against Dortmund's players and coaches, nor their fans, nor their team. George sighed because he despised Dortmund's management.

Dortmund is a strong team in the Bundesliga.

Dortmund has all the conditions to become a giant. They have history and strength.

Dortmund is located in the Ruhr area of ​​North Rhine-Westphalia in western Germany and is the seventh largest city in Germany. Dortmund is an important economic and trade center in North Rhine-Westphalia in western Germany, located in the eastern part of the Ruhr area. The Ruhr River flows from the south of the city, and the Ems River flows through the city of Dortmund. The Port of Dortmund is the largest canal port in Germany and Europe.

So Dortmund is a wealthy city. Or in other words, Germany is the richest country in Europe, and their fans are rich.

That is to say, Dortmund fans have people, money and loyalty. With such a large fan base, as long as Dortmund's management is not a waste, they can build this club into a German giant.

But no.

Dortmund's management does not know how to build a club at all. Dortmund, a team with achievements and strength, will soon decline after the crazy investment of the management.

However, Dortmund's current strength is not bad.

Dortmund has invested crazily this year. Bought three heavyweight players, Rosicky, Jankoller and Amoruso. Among them, Rosicky came to Dortmund in the winter with the Bundesliga historical transfer record, and they broke this record in the summer and bought Amoruso.

Therefore, Dortmund's offense is good.

But the defense has many problems. Dortmund adopts a rear lineup of two old and two young. That is, the two veterans, Vonns and Koller, lead the two young players, Metzelder and Maduni. Vaughns is 29, but Kohler is 36 now.

Kohler was the best defender in the world at his peak.

Kohler has won numerous honors in his career. He is known as a "sticking plaster" because he is like a "sticking plaster" that sticks tightly to his defender. Basten, one of the greatest forwards in football history, once said: "Kohler is the most difficult defender I have ever seen to get rid of. Scoring in front of him is the most difficult job."

It's a pity that the hero is old and Kohler is now at the age of retirement.

George's style of play in this game is very clear. Since there are loopholes in their back line, of course they have to attack and defeat them. George doesn't care whose home court this is, and there are six games in the group stage. It doesn't matter if he loses this one.

George is not worried about qualifying from the group.

As for defense, George certainly won't ignore it. However, most of Dortmund's offense is concentrated on Jan Kohler, Amoruso and Rosicky. Jan Kohler is very tall and has excellent headers. But Campbell is no joke, his greatest skill is his header ability, which is more than enough to defend Jan Koller.

Amoruso has good speed, but Ferdinand in Blackburn's defense is second-rate in speed and flexibility.

In fact, the most powerful player in Dortmund is Rosicky, who has just transferred for half a season. However, with Deco specifically looking after him and Makelele's positioning very stable, George is still very confident about his defense.

George just wants to beat a German team well. George was very frustrated when playing against Bayern last season. Especially Bayern's overall style of play made George very depressed when playing. This time when facing a German team, although the strength is not as good as Bayern, it can still be regarded as a German team.

Although it was his first time facing Dortmund, George was not polite at all. There was no probing attack, and there was a fierce attack at the beginning of the game.

The changes in Blackburn's offensive routine this season are becoming more and more diverse.

In particular, Deco is becoming more and more mature, which is of great help to the team. Deco has gradually grown into a midfielder who can attack and defend well. He can step forward to help Miku when attacking and fall back to help Makelele when defending.

With Deco as a lubricant, Blackburn's offense and defense are becoming more and more interesting.

Sammer played as a free agent. He is also the best defender of the German national team, so he is somewhat conservative after becoming the head coach. Emphasize defense and then attack. It's a pity that Blackburn now is not the kind of team that is at a loss when facing defense.

Twenty-eight minutes into the game, Pires and Miku changed positions on the left. After Pires got the ball in the middle, he went straight into the penalty area and then passed a pass to Klose. The person guarding Klose is the young Metzelder, who is also Klose's national team teammate.

It's a pity that Metzelder is only a marginal player in the German national team at this time. It is completely incomparable to Klose, the main forward of the national team.

Klose faced Metzelder, made a simple dunk, and shot from a small angle. Lehmann was unable to save the ball due to vision reasons.

"Klose, Klose! Klose's skills are so good now. It's hard to tell that he is the forward who only knew how to header the ball back then." Mortensen praised Klose lavishly. "One to zero, Blackburn are in good shape now."

George clapped his hands.

Pires is really the most complete player. Not only can he create countless threats on the wing, but he can also serve as an offensive organizer if he returns to the center. This exchange of positions between Pires and Miku can put a lot of pressure on the opponent's defense.

After scoring a goal, the game became easy.

Playing on the counterattack, although the speed in the middle of the midfield is not good. But Duff on the wing is a master of counterattacks. Before the end of the first half, Duff received a long pass from Deco and passed the Dortmund defense with speed.

Then facing Lehmann, a shot from a small angle scored the second goal of the game.

Only then did George stand up and clenched his fists. Because George knew this game was won.

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it. The powerful Dortmund had no ability to counterattack in front of Blackburn. Two to zero, Blackburn completely won this game."

George was just a little happy, far from excited. Speaking of Dortmund, subsequent fans all had the same evaluation. That is "an expert in civil war and an outsider in foreign war." This is a mockery of Dortmund.

Don't look at the fact that Dortmund was once a Champions League champion team, but their subsequent European record cannot be compared with their domestic record. They often deal with European competitions casually and concentrate on the league.

Although I can't say absolutely, Dortmund does have this tendency.

But this is Dortmund's home court after all, and Sammer still wanted to attack in the second half. However, George saw that the overall situation was decided, so he replaced Pires with Bellamy, allowing Bellamy and Duff, two fast players, to counterattack.

Because Blackburn's midfielder passed the ball very accurately, Dortmund couldn't attack after Bellamy came on.

Although Dortmund fans have been cheering for their team. It's a pity that Dortmund is a newly rebuilt team after all. Facing a strong and stable team like Blackburn, they have no advantage at all.

Until the end of the game, Dortmund did not get any chance to break the Blackburn goal.

George also gradually replaced the main players and asked the team to control the rhythm and not play too fast. In the first round of the group stage, there seemed to be no problems. Don't waste too much energy.

With a score of 2-0 in an away game, Blackburn already have a complete advantage in this group stage. Bumblebee, I'll beat you into a hornet's nest.

Update question. Usually there are three updates. If there are less than three updates, I will explain it in advance. It was an accident yesterday. After the first update, the phone here had no signal. Broadband is not available at all.

Brothers who use broadband cannot afford to be hurt.
