Chapter 34 Counterattack

At the beginning of the game, Hoffenheim's players did not have the impulsiveness of the first game of last season. They started to play hard as soon as they came on the court. They matured. After the kick-off in the center circle, they passed the ball back to the middle and backcourt and passed it back.

The players of Bayern's amateur team were a little surprised. The idea they were instilled with before the game was that Hoffenheim was fierce and tough, and they were ready to accept the baptism of iron and blood. But Hoffenheim seemed to have become an old Bismarck and retreated behind the scenes?

I have taken a shower, you secretly masturbated and became a sage, and then told me that you don't want to hurt me? Will I feel cheap? Did you take a shower in vain? How can this be possible? The Bayern amateur team's mentality came up, and the opponent must be afraid.

Fuck him, go on. There are almost no teams that control the rhythm by back-passing in the backcourt now, so the first reaction of Bayern's amateur team is to rush and grab!

The closer the ball is to the goal, the more dangerous it is, not to mention that it is under the feet of the defender, and it will be lost if you are not careful. Jiangshan also knows that Hoffenheim's players cannot support the technical control flow, and the back-passing in the backcourt is just a cover to prepare for the change of rhythm.

Gerlandt was getting more and more confused. He had studied Jiangshan's games, which were always fierce and powerful, making people excited. How could he do something fancy? Something must be wrong when things are abnormal, and he didn't know how to remind the players.

Foirna and Misimovic, who came down from Bayern's first team, were most unhappy with Hoffenheim's playing style. They were cowardly and rushed very fiercely.

Rushing forward, squeezing the opponent's space, looking for flaws.

Hoffenheim's formation was like a condom, which was pushed out by Bayern and almost became a pocket. I don't know if it will leak.

Although the condom is thin, it is quite tough. Hoffenheim's formation was squeezed, but there was no disorder at all. This scene was known during training. They passed the ball to the wing, and Lahm ran with the ball.

After halftime, they sent it forward along the wing. Didik came out from the middle and continued to run with the ball, and Lahm was lurking behind him.

They passed the ball back in the backcourt, attracted the firepower of Bayern's amateur team, and quickly launched an attack from the wing, and the threat increased. Didik leaned sideways and leaned against the defender, but couldn't find Schweinsteiger. There was no one in the front midfielder position.

He could only pass the ball back to Lahm.

Lahm made a cross with good footwork, which landed on the top of Dorante's head. Dorante overpowered the defender and jumped up, boom! The goalkeeper saved the ball and failed to score.

The scene suddenly became quiet. Hoffenheim would have been fine if they hadn't moved, but they almost scored a goal if they moved, which was a bit scary. Schweinsteiger looked at Hoffenheim's performance and felt complicated, "Bayern, Hoffenheim, Jiangshan, I... Alas..."

The game lasted 30 minutes. Hoffenheim was in a defensive state most of the time, but the scene was not at a disadvantage. They were very successful in the midfield strangulation. Foirna and Misimovic had no chances and could not score.

Correspondingly, Hoffenheim's forwards did not get many opportunities, and the sporadic shooting opportunities were not grasped well, and the last pass needed to be improved.

At the end of the first half, the two sides were tied 0:0. The fans of Bayern's amateur team gradually became quiet. They recognized Hoffenheim's strength and were not an ordinary soft persimmon.

Jiangshan declared before the start of the season that he would lead the team to upgrade, and it was not just talk.

Gerland walked into the locker room and suddenly came to his senses, "Schweinsteiger, you play in the second half."

"You should be very clear about their deployment and player ability." After saying that, he patted Schweinsteiger on the shoulder, "We are all optimistic about you."

Schweinsteiger nodded.

Jiangshan returned to the locker room with a solemn expression. The team's offensive handling was still too rough, completely different from training, and the running-in was not sufficient, and the operation was sluggish.

"Did you feel the intensity of the German Southern League's game? Their boos and their fighting power are different from the team last season, right?"

The players did not answer and listened quietly.

"They want to eat us, can we just sit there and wait for death?" Jiang Shan said coldly, "I know everyone has a fire in their hearts, burn it up, burn it out, and burst out the greatest energy."

"Kai, I asked you to play, not to make you invisible. Don't pass the ball to the person next to you when you see the pressure. Observe the running position of your teammates at any time. I want you to get rid of it on the spot and send a long pass."

Kai played the defensive midfielder position in the official game for the first time. He was a little nervous and lacked confidence. When facing the pressing players, he immediately sent the ball to Larn or Hitzlsperger next to him, but he didn't dare to get rid of the person.

If this ring can't be opened, the team's offense will be greatly affected.

"Afraid of mistakes? What mistakes are you afraid of? You have Larn and Hitzlsperger next to you, and there are Hunt and Insram behind you. They will help you get it. We are a team."

"Yes, we are a team. In the second half, everyone should cooperate more when attacking." The new captain Dorante said quickly.

Jiang Shan arranged some details again, and even thought of how to deal with Schweinsteiger after they sent him.

In the second half, Schweinsteiger appeared on the field. Facing his former teammates, he felt a little weird. He always wanted to pass the ball to familiar people and familiar companions.

However, Rahn didn't care who he was. As long as Schweinsteiger had the ball, he would defend closely. With the help of hidden small movements, Schweinsteiger's weakness was suddenly hit, and his performance was limited.

Jiangshan knew him too well. Every technical feature and technical movement was carved out by him. This was a work that he had carved for a year. How could he not understand it?

Gerland patted his head, "I only thought that Schweinsteiger knew Hoffenheim, and forgot that they also knew Schweinsteiger. This is bad."

To be fair, Bayern's amateur team performed better than Hoffenheim overall. They have played in the German Southern League for several seasons, so they are naturally relaxed. With the addition of first-team players, their strength has improved.

Hoffenheim's running-in has just begun, and many problems have not been solved. The offense is intermittent, and the counterattacks are sporadic. They rely entirely on solid defense to deal with the opponent.

Rahn steals Schweinsteiger again and passes it to Kai. Facing Foirna's steal, Kai turns 360 degrees on the spot and gets rid of it.

Kick, long pass.

To the frontcourt. Kuranyi has started, ran forward a few steps, received the ball that fell to the ground, and the front is flat.

Most of the players on both sides are strangled in the midfield, and there is a large empty space in the backcourt, with room for sprinting. On the other side, Didik sprints and takes away the defensive players.

Dorante retreats and cruises in the middle. His speed is not fast enough. He mainly relies on Kuranyi and Didik in the counterattack, and he retreats to become the second attack point. If the counterattack fails, he can reorganize.

Kuranyi rushed forward, following the familiar running route, changing direction, familiar angle, entering the penalty area, facing the defender, using the change of rhythm to dodge the space, and calmly shooting.

Whoosh!

The sword stabbed out. No blood was seen, but it had already penetrated the flesh.

The goalkeeper dived down, but it was too late. The ball slipped through his armpit and into the goal.

A successful counterattack, sharp, clean and neat.

Jiangshan stood on the sidelines, raised his hand, and scored. The team's mentality will relax, this is a good start.

Kuranyi rushed to Kai who passed the ball well, picked up the freckled boy, turned around, and almost knelt down to propose.

Kai smiled like an octogenarian, with no teeth, and his confidence grew unconsciously. It seemed to have returned to the unstoppable state of last season.
