Grassroots Glory
Vol 2 Chapter 99: World Football Challenge
After a few days, the players were used to it, even enjoying the feeling of being sore and paralyzed on the training ground every morning after training.
Every day about one and a half hours of mountain running, according to Magath's words, this can only be considered as a warm-up, and then from ten to twelve, two hours of endless push-ups and leapfrog training is to let everyone achieve their own limit.
And in the afternoon, there is ball training. With the team's physical data as the basis, Magath's arrangement in the formation is also targeted.
For example, Zhou Tiancheng, who has consistently ranked first in mountaineering, push-ups and leapfrogs, is a midfielder in the new tactical system of Magath.
That's right, Magath completely overturned the 4-4-2 formation design during the Slomka era. Because he feels that this way really achieves an effective counterattack. And Zhou Tiancheng's running ability as a B2B midfielder did not stimulate him to the maximum extent.
Magath's idea is that the formation becomes 4-1-2-3.
In these days of training, Magath has continuously tried to put Zhou Tiancheng in front of the back line, responsible for the entire midfield defensive coverage, and at the same time make full use of his long-passing ability when defensively transferred, while Rakitic and Newly joined Holtby are two offensive midfielders. The main task is to control the rhythm in the battle of positions.
It must be said that Magath's tactical design is indeed more suitable than Slomka. Rakitic's attack is stronger than his defense. In this formation, he can attack without any worries.
One of the most important points in Magath's tactics is to emphasize close snatching from high positions. This is also the place where tactical training players are scolded the most every day: unlike Slomka, Magath emphasized that even the front line should actively press the opponent's back line. In particular, Kuranyi is obviously not very suitable for this tactic, and it is also the one that has been stopped and reproached by physical coach Roythard.
"Kevin, run! Haven't you eaten? Why don't you fight, don't grab?"
Although he doesn't care about the team's tactics, it is also his job to urge the players not to be lazy on the training ground. Among the players, he has become the detestable minion of the devil Magath.
...
Schalke 04's preparations at the Herzlak training camp took only ten days. Before the start of the season, the team had to rush to the United States to participate in a new commercial event this year: the World Football Challenge.
In order to expand the influence of football in North America, especially in the United States, sponsored by RelevantSports, this commercial event emerged. And the event organizers hope to build this game into the most pre-season commercial game in the world football. At the same time expand the influence of football in North America, especially the United States.
Europe has always been the absolute center of world football. The United States, the world's number one economic power, and a country with a highly developed sports industry, is a veritable football desert. Although the US team has always been a regular visitor to the World Cup, the US women's football team is the top team in the women's team. But for a long time, football has not had a high audience in the United States. The influence of Major League Soccer is far less than that of Baseball League, Rugby Professional League and NBA, and even the influence of North American Professional Hockey League.
The world's No. 1 movement is an upset project in the United States.
However, the organizers of the tournament cannot afford to be funded, so the teams invited to the first match all have gold content. Premier League giants Chelsea, Milan Inter Milan and AC Milan are all traditional giants with a huge fan base. Schalke 04 was invited because of the strength of the Bundesliga champions and the Champions League last season.
Schalke 04 will naturally not ignore this opportunity to warm up with the giants before the season.
...
Only four teams were invited to the first World Football Challenge, so the system used a single cycle. It is worth mentioning that in order to increase the enjoyment of the game, the organizer has made certain changes to the point rules: during the regular time, the team will get one point for each goal scored, and the winner of the regular time will have an extra three points . If a tie is made at regular time, the two teams will each add one point and enter the penalty shootout, and the winner of the penalty shootout will add one more point. The last four teams decide the championship based on points.
Follow the schedule. The first opponent of Schalke 04 is Inter Milan. The game was played at Stanford University Stadium in Palo Alto, California.
Magath attaches great importance to this game. Although the pre-season commercial competition must be far away from the intensity of the Champions League, but in the end is actual combat training, the effect can not be compared with the team training competition.
More than ten mainstream international media including CCTV chose to broadcast this international championship. The first match between Schalke 04 and Inter Milan is the focus of attention.
The two teams have aroused enthusiastic comments from major media since the pre-game starting list was announced.
Magath put the 4-1-2-3 formation in training directly into this game. The back line is still the main force last season. Goalkeeper Neuer, four defenders Hevedes, Westman, Rafinha and Bordon. Zhou Tiancheng served as a midfielder midfielder, Rakitic and Holtby were two central midfielders, the striker trio Asamoah left, Altentop right, Kuranyi single arrow.
Magath is very cautious about the use of young players. Although he is very optimistic about the young Matip, he feels that the young people from the echelon can not get up early. Starting from the bench, there is no harm in grinding patience. For the same reason, Jiang Hao did not appear in the first launch~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Now it seems that Zhou Tiancheng is really lucky. Slomka's use of young players is bolder than that of Magath, otherwise it will not be easy for him to want a blockbuster in the first season.
CCTV's commentary He Wei had already roughly understood this series of changes, and Schalke 04's training was open after he arrived in the United States. Naturally known by the media for the first time. At the moment he commented on Schalke's starting lineup: "Magath still continues his style of attaching importance to offense when he coached Wolfsburg last season. In Wolfsburg he mainly relied on Djeco and Grafitte. And Arrived at Schalke. Obviously, Magath wanted to play a good punch in the midfield. Although Zhou Tiancheng's position was relatively delayed, he certainly would not be nailed to this position. Magath's tactics were forced to grab by oppressive high positions. To drive an efficient counterattack, Zhou Tiancheng's position should come to the frontcourt as the game progresses. Magath will never forget his offensive firepower, but the memory was still fresh last season."
On the Inter side, Jose Mourinho finally presented the ideal starting lineup at this stage.
The main goalkeeper is Brazil's goalkeeper Giulio Cesar, Lucio and Samuel partner in the central defender, the left-back Brazil international Maicon, the right-back is captain Javier Zanetti; double back midfielder Cambia Soo partner Tiago Mota; Macedonian international Pandev and Cameroonian "Cheetah" Eto'o separated on the left and right sides, Sneijder hit the front waist position, the forward arrow is the Argentina international Diego Milito.
Xia Chuang's six major recruits and four starters in this game. The eleven people standing on the court have a total worth of 200 million euros!
It's no wonder that Inter's attention in Italian football has overtaken its rival AC Milan. This starting lineup has reflected the goals of the Nerazzurri in the new season, and it is definitely more than the league's defending.
