Seven Crowns

Chapter 253 More extreme defense

Before the start of the game, the two teams returned to the locker room after warming up.

In the visiting team's locker room, Werder Bremen's head coach Schaff was giving his last words to the back line.

After the last round of the league, the media hyped Lu Wenbin's breaking Gerd Muller's 40-goal record.

Before the start of this game, the media was hyping that Lu Wenbin was about to break the record of 67 goals scored in a single season in the five major leagues.

Not only Germany, not only Europe, but also reporters from many countries in Asia, America, Africa and Oceania came to this game, which can be said to attract worldwide attention.

The miracle of Huo Cun and the super performance of Lu Wenbin have attracted strong attention from all over the world.

Countless people are looking forward to the 18-year-old Lu Wenbin breaking the single-season total scoring record in the five major leagues in this game, shocking the football world.

No one cares whether Werder Bremen has a chance to come out on the road, save for their own supporters.

Therefore, in the past few days, Werder Bremen, from the head coach to the players, has been holding his breath.

They can play a 5-2 Bayern team at the Allianz Arena, can't they win at the Rhein-Neckar Arena?

Everyone admits that Lu Wenbin is very powerful, but the Hoffenheim team is not so defiant. Hoffenheim still has draws and losses this season.

After Ibisevic and Nilsson were seriously injured, and Lu Wenbin was restricted by the double-marking tactics that Bayern Munich first used, Hoffenheim should be much weaker than the first half of the season.

Even if Lu Wenbin has made rapid progress and his strength has improved rapidly, it should not be able to make up for the decline in the strength of the Hoffenheim team.

As long as Lu Wenbin is restricted, the scoring ability of other Hoffenheim players is too far behind Lu Wenbin, and Werder Bremen may not have the possibility of an away comeback.

After all, they were a home draw, not a loss. As long as they have a small victory on the road, they can win the promotion with a total score lead.

As for whether the much-anticipated Lu Wenbin can tie or break records, it's none of their business?

Moreover, Schaff believes that the more everyone pays attention, the more Lu Wenbin and the entire Hoffenheim team may care about this matter. During the game, they may try their best to assist Lu Wenbin and let Lu Wenbin score and break the record.

Lu Wenbin may also be relatively independent. After getting the ball, he will not pass it out easily, and even if it is difficult, he will force a shot to try to score a goal.

Since Bayern Munich pioneered the strategy of double-marking Lu Wenbin, Lu Wenbin's scoring ability has indeed been limited, but it is not enough.

Lu Wenbin's scoring efficiency in the second half of the season was still terrifyingly high.

Schaff thinks it can go further.

Therefore, in this second-round away game, Schaff not only sent captain Bowman and central defender Pledel to mark Lu Wenbin closely, not to relax for a moment, but also arranged the back line to assist in defense.

When Lu Wenbin is on the left, he assists Bowman and Pledel with the left back, assists with the right back when he is on the right, and assists with another central defender when he is in the middle. An avant-garde auxiliary defense.

Anyway, Lu Wenbin can't be allowed to shoot easily. Even if he shoots, he will try his best to interfere with him and make him lose sight.

This will definitely give other Hoffenheim players a chance, but Schaff can't care about it, as long as Lu Wenbin can be restrained.

All that's left is the number of goals scored by Werder Bremen's attacking line and Hoffenheim's other attacking players.

After the last reminder, the staff came to call everyone in.

After the admission ceremony, group photo, side picking and other procedures, at 20:00 on April 15th, the second round of the 2008/2009 UEFA Cup quarter-final match between Hoffenheim at home VS Werder Bremen was officially announced. start.

With 2 away goals in hand, Hoffenheim naturally put out a more defensive 442 tactic in this game, and went to Gustavo and Volsa to protect the back line.

The double attacking midfielders are Salihovic and Eduardo, and the forwards are Lu Wenbin and Pargic.

This is also the reason why Schaff dares to let the team concentrate on marking Lu Wenbin alone, because Hoffenheim's attacking manpower in the frontcourt is not very strong.

Lu Wenbin, whose speed has been strengthened, his physical attributes have been increased to 18/18, and is fully recovered, can run very well. In the 6th minute, he suddenly turned away from Bowman and Pledel's personal defense. There was a brief gap on the right side of the penalty area.

Eduardo, who cooperated tacitly, passed the ball in time. Lu Wenbin stopped the ball in the penalty area and immediately kicked the goal.

But at this time, left-back Bernish, who was on the right side of the frontcourt for Hoffenheim and on the left side of the backcourt for Bremen, appeared on Lu Wenbin's side.

Bernish, who was too late to defend, threw a tackle, and Lu Wenbin shot the ball that just hit Bernish's leg and popped the bottom line.

Lu Wenbin's shot was destroyed.

Seeing on the sidelines, Schaff clenched his fists secretly, feeling that his tactics were right.

However, the ball did not arouse the vigilance of Lu Wenbin and head coach Ralph.

Even before, Lu Wenbin didn't score every shot, and he didn't just need to throw off the player who was marking him, and everyone else watched him shoot without moving.

People close by came to defend, tackle, block holes, etc. It was normal. Neither Lu Wenbin nor head coach Ralph thought that Bremen had deliberately added a third person to help defend Lu Wenbin.

Lu Wenbin, who had just added attributes and wanted to break the record, continued the fight with high spirits.

The corner kick was not grabbed by Hoffenheim's players and was cleared by Bremen, but instead launched a counterattack.

Fortunately, when the attack hit the backcourt of Hoffenheim, it was intercepted by the double midfielder Gustavo and Volsa.

Ten minutes later, Lu Wenbin threw off Bowman and Pledel to get a kick and shot, but was staggered by a collision from right-back Naldo who rushed diagonally behind, and naturally kicked the ball away. .

Even if Lu Wenbin's physique is increased to 18/18, it is not as stable as Mount Tai.

What's more, as a defender, Nardo's physique is not bad, and it is as high as 195cm. Under the deliberate collision, Lu Wenbin's unsteady standing is a matter of course.

In addition to these two shots being destroyed, in the 19th minute, Lu Wenbin also ran out of a gap to receive a pass from Salihovic. As a result, the central defender Mertesacker suddenly jumped out and threw the ball midway without touching the ball. intercepted.

After 20 minutes passed, Lu Wenbin had not yet had a threatening shot within the goal frame.

Lu Wenbin felt a little awkward.

Lu Wenbin, who had increased his physique and speed before the game, should have improved his strength, and his physical fitness should have returned to full value. He should have more opportunities. Why didn't he even have a threatening shot within the range of the door frame?

However, Lu Wenbin just felt unhappy, but did not think of the opponent's targeted tactics.
