Chapter 273 Chaqiu King and Sun Qiuwang

Hamburg is really resolutely playing a defensive counterattack now.

Many of their players stayed in their own half, and Sun Xingmin and Salah, who had been swimming on the two wings, have now retreated to the position of the winger.

Hamburg's formation now looks more like a 451, or 4141.

Because among the five midfielders, the defensive midfielder Casemiro often retreats to the back line to play the role of a central defender, so sometimes Hamburg plays like a more defensive 541.

In front of the "five defenders", there are two players who can't run to death, Paulinho and Kanter, sweeping away. One can imagine how difficult it will be for Atletico Madrid to advance.

This is Pan Yi's current style of play.

He just wants to disgust the opposing team to prevent counter-starts.

Who doesn't know how to defend and counterattack?
Today I want to use magic to defeat magic!

Of course, the goal just now is also crucial.

With two goals in hand, there is no need for Pan Yi to fight against Atletico Madrid anymore.

The consumption of physical energy is one thing, but the most important thing is to preserve vitality!

At the Calderon Stadium, it is not a good thing to have too much physical contact with Atletico Madrid players.

Now that one De Bruyne has been injured, even if Hamburg's bench is deep enough, it won't be able to withstand a few more injuries!
They have passed Atletico Madrid, and there will be the German Cup final and the more important Champions League final!
And Hamburg waited for Atletico Madrid to take the initiative to attack, but Simeone was a little overwhelmed.

Although Hamburg was also defensive at the beginning, it was still a balanced formation after all, and the two wingers were not so far behind.

In this case, Atletico Madrid's center and side attacks can still play some cooperation.

But now, Hamburg seems to have really set the bus after the goal!

This makes the Atletico Madrid players a little uncomfortable.

You know, most of Atletico Madrid's midfielders and wingbacks are engineers.

Perhaps only Turkish player Arda Turan's foot skills are better, but he has not reached the level that can break through thousands of troops.

In front of the bus in Hamburg, Atletico Madrid's players had a very narrow space to advance, and they made frequent mistakes in cooperation.

They failed to function in the midfield, the ball was not organized, and it was even more disordered in the frontcourt.

And once the ball is taken by Hamburg, either Casemiro, Van Dijk, or Rudiger will make a long pass without hesitation to find Vardy in front to launch a counterattack, and basically will not let the ball Stays on the feet for too long.

In this case, it is difficult for Atletico Madrid's frontcourt to restrict Hamburg's backcourt. At most, it can only run over to interfere.

In addition, Diego Costa, who was originally very aggressive, now has a yellow card on his back. He also knows that he escaped the punishment of the red card just by chance, so the kick is not so ruthless;

And Villa itself is not a very fierce player, and continuous high-speed running and oppression is not his strong point, and he is 32 years old this year, not at the peak of his career, and his physical function is also declining;
Therefore, the weakness of Atletico Madrid's two forwards has also reduced the transmission pressure of Hamburg to a certain extent.

Of course, since Hamburg is now pressed very far behind, the encounter line is almost all behind its own half, so most of the counterattacks launched from the backcourt can only find Vardy.

This led to Atletico Madrid's three central defenders actually being able to easily defend against Vardy and Hamburg's counterattack.

As a result, neither side actually created any threatening offenses, and they became a bit stalemate after kicking and kicking.

……

Of course, Pan Yi was not in a hurry for this situation.

Hamburg are now two goals ahead and have an away goal in hand.

In other words, even if Atletico Madrid can score two goals to equalize the total score, Hamburg will still advance.

Of course, this also means that this game is destined to be impossible to enter overtime.

And now if Atletico Madrid wants to enter the final, they must score more than three goals!
This task is obviously very difficult.

It seems that there is no team that can score three goals in Hamburg in one game this season?
Not to mention such a "Atletico" Hamburg team.

So under the same situation, of course Simeone on the other side became more and more anxious.

He started waving on the sidelines, adjusting his 352 while directing the team's offense.

Of course, to be precise, this is not an adjustment, because this is a variant of 352 that will appear when it is fully attacking.

That is, in the positional battle against Hamburg, through the forward penetration of the wing guards and the forward penetration of the second striker (Billa) and one of the midfielders (Turan and Gabi) in the middle, the 235 offensive formation can be quickly achieved!

In this way, Atletico Madrid has five people who can directly enter Hamburg's penalty area, and use their own methods to deal with their own body, and attack Hamburg's 4-back system through the ribs.

This can be said to be the craziest offensive mode.

Because at this time, Atletico Madrid only had two central defenders in the entire backcourt, and even Alderweireld went to the midfield.

Of course Simeone knew it would be risky to do so, but he had no other options.

Now that he has lost the capital to fight against counterattacks, he can only bite the bullet and press out!

Such changes are obviously effective.

Atletico Madrid's suppression of Hamburg is in place.

After 30 minutes, Atletico Madrid has completely taken control of the midfield and began to create a lot of shooting opportunities.

And Hamburg can only threaten Atletico Madrid's defense through some sporadic long passes.

In the 32nd minute, Arda Turan started from the midfield, faced multiple defensive players and broke through consecutively, and was finally destroyed in the penalty area.

In the 33rd minute, Felipe broke through from the left, and then the pass was blocked by Van Dijk.

In the 34th minute, Cork went straight, and Costa shot a low shot from the right side of the penalty area and passed the goal.

In the 36th minute, Hamburg had a chance to counterattack. Vardy attracted the defense and made a diagonal pass, but Sun Xingmin volleyed in the penalty area and kicked it away.

In the 37th minute, Gabi distributed the ball to the left, Villa made adjustments and pushed the shot, which was resolved by Navas.

In the 38th minute, Raul Garcia forced a breakthrough from the right, swayed from an angle and shot slightly high.

In the 39th minute, Costa made the ball. Villa hit the goal in the penalty area and was blocked by Navas. Cork missed another shot.

In the 40th minute, Atletico Madrid launched an offensive with a pass from the right. Costa turned around and shot at close range and was rescued by Navas.

There were constant dangers in front of Hamburg. Nagelsmann and Inzaghi were a little anxious, but Pan Yi still sat firmly in his seat, motionless.

Even the commentator Zhan Jun began to sweat for Hamburg.

"During this period of time, the game was very intense, and there were constant shooting shots. However, most of these shots belonged to Atletico Madrid, and Hamburg only had a counter-attack shot high."

"Atletico Madrid showed a very strong desire to win. They rarely put on a siege posture and invested a lot of troops in the Hamburg penalty area."

"The current defense of Hamburg is still stable, but I am a little worried that it may not last long under the fierce attack of Atletico Madrid."

"Although Hamburg currently has a two-goal lead, if this continues..."

But Zhang Lu has a different view:

"Although it seems that Atletico Madrid has taken advantage of the field and got some shooting opportunities, how do I feel that this is intentional by Pan Yi?"

"Don't look at Atletico Madrid's lively play, but Hamburg's defense is still very tight. Atletico Madrid's shots are often rushed, so the quality is not very high."

"As for Hamburg's counterattack, although it is easy to crack due to too few points in front, it also seems to paralyze the vigilance of Atletico Madrid players. This is not the first time that Pan Yi pretended to be a pig and eat a tiger!"

"Don't forget, just a week ago in the first round of the match, Pan Yi deliberately showed weakness in the match against Atletico Madrid, luring Simeone to make a decision to directly change to three players, and defeated him in one fell swoop."

"This time...hehe, it's hard to say whether Pan Yi will repeat his old tricks. After all, his formation is very flexible. As long as two wingers push up, an attacking formation of three strikers will immediately form."

"Hey? Look, look, Pan Yi has stood up, and he is going to direct the game!"

……

At this time, the game time of the first half has passed 40 minutes.

Only then did Pan Yi take a slow look at the chronograph, then stood up and walked to the command area.

He does have to fine-tune his style of play.

As Zhang Lu said, Pan Yi is preparing to advance the positions of Sun Xingmin and Salah a bit to increase the strength of the frontcourt counterattack!
However, he made this decision not as a "replay of old tricks", but as a "temporary idea".

Because he saw that after the onslaught of about 10 minutes, the running ability of Atletico Madrid players has declined to varying degrees.

In fact, Atletico Madrid was unable to grasp after creating a shooting opportunity, and a large part of the reason was that the physical support was not enough.

Not having enough physical fitness will make you unable to make the last and most important effective shot after passing people or grabbing points.

This is also the reason why many people "be like Messi, shoot Hesky".

And the last stage of the first and second half, that is, 40-45 minutes, and 85-90 minutes, is when this happens the most.

But if at this stage, if the team with better physical strength and stronger will can fully exert its strength, it will have more opportunities to score goals!

Pan Yi also saw this opportunity.

Because the players in Hamburg have maintained a stable formation under the solid defense, and the distance between each other has also been maintained very well, and they have not consumed too much physical energy at all.

So now at least in terms of physical fitness, Hamburg has an absolute advantage!
It's great to hold onto a two-goal lead, but wouldn't it be perfect if we could score them one more goal?
Therefore, Sun Xingmin and Salah no longer stood in the position of winger, but mentioned the initial winger position.

They will still retreat on the wing to press Atletico Madrid's wingbacks on both sides, but when Hamburg's backcourt gets the ball, they will also insert more actively to target the natural deadly force behind Atletico Madrid's wingbacks. free time!
It is matched with Hamburg's midfielder.

On the left, Kanter and his partner Sun Xingmin attacked Atletico Madrid's left wing position, supplemented by the off-ball running of Paulinho and Salah on the right, aiming at the possible gaps in the middle of the opponent's three defenders.

And such a change of formation was also accompanied by a sudden change in rhythm, which made Atletico Madrid, who was still immersed in the onslaught, suddenly feel something was wrong.

But they failed to keep up with this rhythm in time.

First, Salah tried to cut inside. After being blocked by the opponent's central defender in time, Salah immediately passed the ball back to Paulinho.

On the Atletico Madrid side, Gabi and Cork ran over immediately, trying to double-team Paulinho together.

After the Brazilian midfielder stopped, he glanced at Vardy in front of him, then at the left, and suddenly picked the ball with his left foot, and picked the ball directly behind Godin, outside the left corner of the penalty area.

I saw a white figure quickly coming forward from behind Godin, and after stopping Paulinho's pick pass to the front, the whole person's speed did not decrease, and he wanted to rush directly into the penalty area.

It's Son Heung-min!

He didn't know when he had come up from the midfield position, the speed was really too fast!

For a while, the entire Calderon Stadium exclaimed again.

If Sun Xingmin shoots the goal, Atletico Madrid's goal will be in danger again!
But at this critical moment, Alderweireld, who had been chasing desperately, came out from the side, and hit Sun Xingmin from the side and rear, directly knocking the Korean striker into the air, and fell into the penalty area.

Alderweireld immediately raised his hands to signal his innocence, but the referee immediately blew his whistle and showed him a yellow card.

Will this be a penalty?

Alderweireld's foul seems to be in the penalty area!
Then, the referee's arm is raised at a 45-degree angle, which means...

It's a free kick!

Not a penalty!

Suddenly there was a soft cheer at the Calderon Stadium, highlighting a blessing.

But the visiting stands were not satisfied.

They booed harshly, expressing dissatisfaction with the referee's penalty.

In their opinion, this is a [-]% penalty!

"The referee believes that this is a foul on the penalty area line, so only a free kick is awarded, not a penalty."

"Let's watch the slow motion replay..."

"We can see that Sun Xingmin's sudden advance made Atletico Madrid's defensive players a little too late to react. Alderweireld, who was chasing back, had no choice but to hit him."

"He didn't have any chance to touch the ball at all, and he threw his arm in the face of Son Heung-Min... So it was a foul without a doubt. So, where is the foul place?"

"Look at the position where the two touched... Ah, it's really inside the penalty area. This should be a penalty kick! The referee made another misjudgment!"

"Speaking of which, even if the goal is not a penalty, Alderweireld is the last defensive player. Sun Xingmin is about to face the goalkeeper and was knocked down. Shouldn't Alderweireld be shown a red card? "

"The referee once again showed mercy. If you count Diego Costa's malicious foul on De Bruyne, Atletico Madrid should have received two red cards, and now they can only fight with nine people!"

"Maybe the referee is trying to keep the game from losing suspense early. But such a penalty makes people wonder, is this the home court advantage?"

……

On the field, Sun Xingmin was still lying on the grass covering his face, and the Hamburg team doctor entered the field again.

Soon, the team doctor made a substitution gesture in the direction of the visiting team's bench.

"Damn! Are you injured again?" Pan Yi's eyes widened.

I'm really afraid of what's coming.

Where is Atletico Madrid playing football? This is murderous football!

Although Pan Yi's adjustments paid off immediately, and Sun Xingmin's pressure on the left side directly created a great threat, but this "consumable" style of play is really difficult to stand up to.

But now there is no other way but to substitute.

Pan Yi glanced at Sun Xingmin's stretcher as he passed by. Sun Qiuwang's face was swollen a lot, and he really couldn't kick it.

Pan Yi thought for a while, but made a somewhat unexpected decision.

He didn't let Wu Lei play and make a counter-substitution.

Instead, Charhanoglu went up to replace Sun Xingmin, and the cha ball king was replaced by the sun ball king!

Pan Yi doesn't want to consume too many players anymore.

If you score less penalties, you will score less points. Just the lead of these two goals is enough!

And even if there is consumption...

Chaqiu Wang Ni can barely take this spot, I still want to keep Wu Lei!
……

After Charhanoglu came on the field, he naturally stood in front of the ball.

Although he is a substitute player, he is the first free kicker in the Hamburg team.

Usually De Bruyne, Salah and others will come to kick free kicks, but if Charhanoglu is on the court, he is usually allowed to take the penalty.

In all fairness, at the beginning of Charhanoglu's career, his free kick skills are indeed outstanding. He can kick all kinds of banana balls and elevator balls, so his teammates are still very convinced.

This is also the origin of his title of "Cha Ball King".

People who can be called "ball kings" by fans, except for those truly awesome players such as Pele and Maradona, actually often represent that this player has relatively outstanding skills.

For example, the chasing ball king who is good at free kicks, the sun ball king who can travel long distances, the three-goal king who can break through from the wing...

Of course, there are many people competing for the only ball king in London...

However, the position of today's free kick was a little too close to the goal.

Yes, too close.

Don't think that the closer the free kick is to the goal, the better.

When a player kicks a free kick, he needs to kick out an arc to bypass the wall, then drop down and hit the goal.

And if the penalty spot is too close to the goal, it will cause the ball to arc up, and it is likely to go out of the bottom line before it has time to fall.

This is especially true for players like Charhanoglu who are better at kicking long-range elevator balls.

Therefore, at this time, besides Charhanoglu, Salah and Paulinho also walked over to the penalty spot.

This free kick is on the left side of the penalty area, and Salah is a left-footed player. If he takes the penalty, he will kick an outspin ball to let the high point in the penalty area compete for the header.

And if Paulinho comes to punish, it may be a low burst shot, trying to see if it can penetrate the Atletico Madrid wall.

At this time, the three players moved closer and covered their mouths, as if they were discussing something.

The diehard Atletico Madrid fans in the stands behind the goal suddenly made a deafening noise, trying to influence the free kick.

But the Hamburg players were obviously not affected in any way. After the discussion, Salah and Paulinho stood between the ball and the Atletico Madrid wall, while Charhanoglu took two steps back.

At this time, the referee seemed to be a little impatient, and blew a crisp whistle heavily.

At the moment of the whistle, Salah gently pushed the ball towards Charhanoglu, while Paulinho stepped forward and fixed the ball on the grass.

In this way, they artificially pushed back the spot of the free kick by one or two meters, which also reached the range of Charhanoglu's arc!

Atletico Madrid players also saw the intention of Hamburg's free kick tactic. Costa and Felipe in the wall rushed towards Charhanoglu, trying to block his shooting angle.

But at this time, Chaball King had already finished his run-up.

He seemed to be pouring all the energy in his body into his feet, and he immediately pulled out a furious shot!

It's not a curve ball!

But because Atletico Madrid's crowd had dissipated, this angry shot just passed through, and flew towards Atletico Madrid's goal with lightning speed.

This ball speed is really too fast!
Courtois reacted quickly, but his sight was somewhat blocked by his own human wall. When he stretched out his hand, he only felt that his fingers could touch the skin of the ball, but he was unable to change the direction of the ball.

"The ball went in!!!!!!"

"In the 45th minute, that is, the last minute of the first half, Hamburg scored again!"

"Now the score has come to 0:2, Hamburg has already led by two goals in the away game!"

"Calhanoglu just came off the bench with his first touch and scored with this beautiful free kick!"

"It was a bit of a dramatic scene. A dangerous foul by Atletico Madrid sent Son Heung-min injured, Alderweireld escaped a red card, and Atletico Madrid was scored again."

"Think of Hamburg's first goal as well. Diego Costa fouled De Bruyne, but Hamburg quickly scored with an attack... Is it lucky or unlucky for Atletico Madrid? ?”

"But no matter what, Hamburg has achieved a three-goal lead in the total score!"

"Due to the existence of away goals, this means that Atletico Madrid must score four goals in today's game to overtake Hamburg!"

"But now the game time is only halftime! Judging from the performance of the first half, Atletico Madrid has not had any good way to take Hamburg."

"I must say that Hamburg has already stepped into the Stadium of Light and entered the stage of this season's Champions League final!..."

After the goal and passionate celebration, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.

But Pan Yi was actually a little confused.

Just scored again?
He still thought it would be enough to win only two goals!

Forget it, just accept this fact reluctantly, three goals are three goals!
Who made Atletico Madrid play so fiercely? Even if the two generals of Hamburg were abolished, they should win him a few more goals, and they should be angry!

Then, Pan Yi also has a good idea of ​​the deployment during the intermission.

That is--

Continue to defend until he cries!
