There is a dream called football

"The game starts and the German team's starting line-up is..."

"The goalkeeper is Lehmann from Arsenal, who is also Li Qiao's teammate. With his excellent performance at Arsenal last season, he finally squeezed out Kahn and became Germany's number one national goalkeeper."

"In the defence, the left back is Lahm, and the two center backs are Metzelder and Mertesacker."

"The right back is Friedrich."

"The midfielders are Ballack, Frings, Snyder, Bastian Schweinsteiger."

"The two forwards are Klose and Podolski."

This is also the strongest lineup of the German team. The camera swept over and showed Klinsmann with a stern expression on his face.

Because for Germany, qualifying in the group is just passing, and entering the quarterfinals is only reasonable. Their goal is the final in Berlin.

After the opening, the Chinese team faced off with five defenders, setting up a steel barrel formation, hoping not to concede the ball first, and then just do whatever they wanted.

However, the German team's style of play was too domineering at this time.

In fact, the way German football is played has gone through a change. The German football that faced South Korea in 2018, which was as grinding as Spanish football, was different from the traditional German football at this time.

At this time, German football was simple and straightforward, with unreasonable long shots in front of the penalty area, and it was impossible to pass them around.

So in front of German football at this time, the Chinese team felt like they were beaten through even if they defended intensively.

Ballack fired an unreasonable shot in front of the penalty area, and the ball roared out of the baseline.

Liu Yunfei jumped but did not touch the ball.

There was a huge sound of regret at the Allianz Arena, causing a sound similar to the feeling of a Boeing plane taking off.

Then Frings made another explosive shot. In the game against Costa Rica, Frings had already scored a explosive shot, but this time it missed a little.

The German team's domineering attitude after the start was to tell the Chinese team that defense was useless in the face of the German offense.

Huang Jianxiang said nervously: "The German team's offense is simple, but the efficiency is too high."

"Three long-range shots are quite reliable. If they hit the goal frame, there is basically nothing the goalkeeper can do."

After the opening, the Chinese team felt what it means to be a suffocating attack. This was something they had never encountered before.

"Now I understand what Saudi Arabia felt back then."

Bastian Schweinsteiger dribbled the ball forward on the right wing, but Sun Xiang couldn't hold him down at all. His speed was okay, but he couldn't hold him down due to physical confrontation.

Schweinsteiger immediately made a pass and a curve ball into the penalty area. This curve ball was aimed at Podolski in front of the penalty area, but there were defensive players around him, including forwards.

He felt it instinctively, so he swung his header back.

But Klose ran a little further and the ball went behind him.

"Oh my God, the ball just happened to be behind Klose, it was just a little bit missed."

"Otherwise, it would be a wide open goal from the back. Not to mention Klose, even I can hit the ball."

The German team used this kind of indiscriminate bombing to deal with the Chinese team's penalty area, but in fact it was Klinsmann who was anxious first.

Because the Chinese team's ability to fight against England has also been demonstrated in the game against England, and it is indeed good. As long as there are no goals, the advantage on the field is of no use.

"Goal."

"Goal."

Klinsmann's requirement is that a goal must be scored in the first 15 minutes, otherwise the goal will be difficult to play because the players will be tired and their physical fitness will be at a low point.

At 15 minutes, the score was still 0-0, and Klinsmann seemed a little anxious.

On the court, the Chinese team is gradually able to get the ball in the backcourt, but only in the backcourt. It is still impossible to enter the frontcourt.

Li Qiao also has a hard time holding the ball in the midfield, usually just passing the ball, because German players are really strong in physical confrontation.

The Chinese team still uses the same football game style as in previous games, passing the ball quickly and avoiding confrontation as much as possible.

But the German team is different. In front of the Germans, the Chinese team basically loses the ball after passing three shots.

Zheng Zhi took the ball and passed it long to Li Qiao, but before the ball could pass, it was intercepted by Germany's Lahm.

Li Qiao slapped his left hand with his right hand. He rarely kicked the ball in such a frustrating way. He couldn't even get the ball.

The German team's defense is a standard chain defense. It will not be fought by one person alone, but by several people in groups.

Needless to say, the benefits of this are that defense is like forming a chain, which is very difficult for Li Qiao.

But this is not enough. The German team's request is to completely freeze Li Qiao. This is the tactic Loew helped Klinsmann formulate, that is, the German team must freeze Li Qiao.

Li Qiao is facing Germany's best full-back Lahm.

In his previous life, Li Qiao liked to watch the German team play. Whether Lahm was on the left or the right, he was a one-stop player.

So Li Qiao paused and tried to get rid of him with a fake move, but failed. Lahm didn't use fake moves at all. This kind of excellent full-back is very good at getting stuck. He is stuck inside and can be released from the outside.

for you.

Someone has said that defense is actually the art of positioning. In fact, defense purely relying on the body is very low.

Li Qiao had no choice but to take the outside line left by Ram, but soon Frins came over. Ram and Frins formed a double-team on Li Qiao, so this opportunity was lost.

There is Hao Junmin in the middle, but there is no ball release point at all.

In the end, Li Qiao could only kick the ball towards Ram. The ball went out of the baseline and the Chinese team got a corner kick.

"This is the first corner kick of the Chinese team in this game, and it is also the first time that the Chinese team has attacked the German team's half."

Li Qiao took the shot himself.

The Chinese team also had a lot of people pressing on them, so they obviously wanted to use this opportunity to make some fuss.

"The set kick is a relatively good opportunity for the weaker side. It depends on how the Chinese team takes advantage of it."

The Germans were also well prepared.

Li Qiao looked at Li Weifeng, who was running at the front point, and kicked the ball low to the front point. Li Wei deliberately missed it, and Mertesacker was behind him.

And soon, the Chinese team protested collectively.

"Handball."

Because the ball missed by Li Weifeng seemed to hit Mertesacker's hand.

At this time, both sides were very excited. Because Mertesacker was so tall, his handball was quite obvious. It depends on how the referee determined it.

About 20 seconds later, the referee blew his whistle and pointed to the spot.

The whole place was in an uproar.

Our team had been attacking for so long without scoring a goal, but the opponent just took a corner kick so lightly and got a penalty kick.

This was unacceptable to the Germans at the scene.

Ballack angrily negotiated with the referee.

"The ball missed so fast that no one could avoid it. It was an unintentional handball."

But the referee determined that Mertesacker's arm was raised and it was a penalty kick.

This time, the Germans were in trouble.
