Ice Shooter of the Green Field

Chapter 157 German Midfield Showdown

Subotic's successful defense greatly increased the confidence of Dortmund fans, after all, this is Qize!

This final was not boring for the fans at all. The sexy girl just now was an unexpected surprise in the game, but obviously the main reason why it was not boring was the game on the field.

Dortmund is good at pushing the rhythm, and even driving the opponent's rhythm!

This is Klopp’s magic weapon. Dortmund used crazy pressure and pressure to force the opponent’s rhythm, which is equivalent to bringing the game into the rhythm he wants. After Subotic successfully defended, Zize returned the pass. , the Chelsea midfielder responded, but immediately fell into a struggle in the Dortmund midfielder.

Meyer and Lampard passed each other, it seemed like a meaningless short pass between the two, but it was actually a helpless move.

Lampard was pressed in the forward position and was unable to turn around. Meyer's passing line was also blocked, so he had to return to Lampard. However, Lampard had no good choice for the ball and could only pass it back. Meyer.

This is what is called controlling the rhythm of the game.

If it is impossible to directly curb the opponent's offense or conduction, then control the game by pressing and blocking the route. This is what Dortmund did.

Maier got the ball again, and there was still only Lampard in front of him who could pass it. Or maybe there was only one Lampard who was a safe passing point. Continue to pass to Lampard?

This is a good choice. Lampard has rich experience. It will definitely be good to let him continue to organize the offense. However, it has been three or four times in a row that there are no good passing points around. It is a bit strange. Dortmund's running is really powerful.

Is there any other way?

Meier suddenly thought of what Hiddink told them before the game to create opportunities for set pieces.

It is difficult to directly create a shot from a set piece at this position, but Zize once said that the weakest link in Dortmund's defense is the defense of set pieces and corner kicks. Even if a direct shot cannot be taken, it is always good to create more opportunities for set pieces.

Meyer did not intend to pass the ball directly to Lampard this time, but chose to dribble the ball himself!

Midfield push!

Meyer suddenly dribbled the ball forward and broke through, which somewhat surprised the Dortmund players. The continuous passes between Lampard and Meyer made the Dortmund players think that Meyer would definitely pass the ball, but in fact, it was Meyer who broke through. The space is also very small, and Bender is ready to move here at any time to intercept Meyer's pass.

In fact, it is also close to the defensive distance and can respond to Meyer's breakthrough at any time.

Bender and Maier are also teammates in the national team. Maier, who recently played the main role at Chelsea, has gradually gained some status in the national team. Although the main force of the national team is still from Bayern, the midfielder is mainly Schweinsteiger. Rose and Khedira are also important candidates, but after him, Meyer, Gundogan, the Bender brothers and Monchengladbach's Kramer are candidates for the second camp.

In this final, the German national team coach Loew was also watching the game. Next year will be the World Cup year. Loew himself has always attached great importance to Dortmund's games, so he paid more attention to this final. He wanted to see these young players. How will they perform in major competitions?

Meyer, Gundogan, and Bender, these three people are very important inspection targets.

Because there is basically nothing else to investigate. Hummels, Reus, and Gotze are basically certain to be selected for the national team. Weidenfeller will be selected as the second goal without any suspense. How outstanding are they in these positions? It's enough, but Germany has many candidates for the central midfield position.

There is basically no suspense about Khedira, Bastian Schweinsteiger, and Kroos. They will be the main players or the main rotation candidates, but the team will always need one or two backup forces.

Six-time champions Gundogan and Bender, Meyer, who has suddenly emerged this season, and Kramer, who has performed stably and well in Borussia Monchengladbach. This reserve list is enough. At least one or two of them will be taken to Brazil. This final is also A good opportunity for Loew to investigate.

Meyer dribbles the ball to face Bender!

Get over him!

Meier only had this thought in his mind, and his feet moved involuntarily, hitting a fried ball!

Unexpectedly, Bender actually knew him very well. In addition to being a teammate of the national team for a short time, Bender also did enough homework before the game.

He was waiting for the moment Meyer changed direction!

Meyer had already realized that Bender had not been deceived by him, but even at this time it was too late to throw a fried ball in the opposite direction, because Bender was basically motionless. Meyer was quick to think and hit the ball between Bender's legs. Kick, and then prepare to force a breakthrough with speed!

Bender didn't expect Meyer to control the ball in this situation. He was still wary of Meyer's change of direction, but this time he passed through the crotch and he didn't have time to react.

Meier wanted to speed around him, but Meier's explosive power was not very strong. When he came up, Bender's body also came up, and the two collided and fell to the ground.

This time, in the duel between German midfielders, Meyer scored first.

The referee Rizzoli blew the whistle. In his opinion, it was a blocking foul. Bender stood up and said nothing. He was indeed suspected of a blocking foul. He was just worried that the ball would be given to Zize. Come to play, but the position is actually not very good, on the front wing.

Zice seems to have scored goals in this position!

Bender looked a little uneasily at the position where he had just committed the foul, and then looked back at the goal. Fortunately, it was a little further away than last time.

Chelsea was about to take a free kick. Klopp and Hiddink both walked to the sidelines. Hiddink was very satisfied. So far in this game, only this detail may be what Hiddink wants to see. The rest are under Klopp's control. middle.

Klopp is worried.

Dortmund has had a set-piece defense problem for a long time, and Klopp is also trying to solve it. He has very good central defenders Subotic and Hummels. This defense combination may be one of the best in Europe, but set-pieces There are always a lot of goals conceded and it’s weird.

Maybe the usual training is really not in place. Klopp's tactics have very high requirements on the players. They have to play like a unit. They have to spend a lot of time in the usual tactical training to get in tune, leaving time for set pieces. Very few indeed.

The set piece at this position is equivalent to a 45-degree cross, which may be a little further back. This position is usually taken by wingers or full-backs. Unfortunately, Chelsea's wingers are not strong in passing ability. , Hazard is not from this side, and Qize rarely crosses when playing on the wing. This kind of large cross at 45 degrees is really not his strong point.

So Chelsea's free kicks are usually taken by Azpilicueta. However, after Meyer was hit by Bender and heard the whistle, he immediately stood up and hugged the ball. Azpilicueta came up to ask for it. Ball, Meier shook his head and said: "I want to give it a try."

Azpilicueta did not persist. Since Meyer wanted to try, he walked towards the center. If Meyer came to kick the ball, he would definitely hit it into the penalty area. Someone needs to stay in the middle to guard against the opponent's counterattack.

Meyer placed the ball at the spot where Bender had just committed a foul and looked up at the penalty area. Everyone in Chelsea paid great attention to this set-piece attack.

This is Chelsea's first set piece in this game, and it is also something that Zize suggested to Hiddink before the game to pay attention to. Obviously Hiddink and the whole team attach great importance to this opportunity.

But fighting for the top and heading the ball are indeed not what Zize is good at. When he was playing for Dortmund in the past, although he rarely practiced set-pieces, after all, he stayed for three years. His teammates rarely or almost never saw Zize fighting for the ball in training. Corner kicks or set kicks were scored. In official games, although Zize scored from corner kicks, the situation was relatively unexpected and it was not a regular set kick.

Unconventional set kicks, in fact, as long as you take precautions, it is difficult for the opponent to pose a threat. Set kicks are fired into the penalty area, and they are no more than forward, backward, or penalty kicks. Unconventional ones may be low and flat. The ball, a tactical kick, or a long shot outside the penalty area.

Facing Zize, Dortmund will definitely think of this. They will position themselves forward to prevent low and fast shots, and be careful in the rib area to guard against Zize's long shots. That's it.

Although more set kicks were indeed proposed by Zize, most of them had nothing to do with him. Zice stood at the top of the penalty area, preparing to attract the defense or look for long-range shots, but he paid attention. Meyer kept waving his hand to indicate moving forward in the penalty area, so Zize slowly moved backward.

If he wants to take the penalty shot, Qi Ce will go back to attract the defensive attention.

But the moment the ball was kicked, Zice realized that the ball was flying backwards! Meyer kicked the ball with great force, and Qize immediately started to accelerate and sprinted back!

Subotic and Hummels, the two leading header experts, were not there because they did not dare to neglect John Terry and David Luiz at the front, and only Gotze and Schmelzer were defending Zize at the back. But Schmelzer was positioned higher up, and Gotze was on top!

At the end, Qi Ce jumped up high, flicked his head and smashed the ball into the net!
