What is an attacking defensive midfielder?

"Leipzig put pressure on us right from the start. It has to be Rangnick!"

"Maurice, what do you want?!"

"Maurice has moved the ball to the right wing, and now Poulsen has it!"

Poulsen made a slight mistake when controlling the ball, almost hitting it out of bounds, but he managed to keep his balance in the end.

Kimmich moved toward Poulsen, preparing to receive another pass.

The defenders reacted quickly, and Dani Laca immediately ran over to cause trouble for Kimmich.

It seems there's no way to provide backup?

Despite the dire situation, Kimmich remained calm.

Because he knew that Goodman would definitely sneak up to support the flanks!

"here!"

As expected, Hao Ren ran up from Kimmich and easily received the pass back from Poulsen.

!

The away team players clearly didn't realize how fast Hao Ren could run.

With no other option, Dani Lacha immediately turned back, trying to disrupt Hao Ren.

"What is this number 18 from Bochum trying to do?!"

"Damn, those two arms are on Hao Ren's shoulders, referee, that's a foul!"

"This referee is two-armed, he didn't even call it!"

"Wow, Hao Ren has completely outmaneuvered Dani Lacha!"

"Awesome! That's the king of football's move!"

"Hao Ren is dribbling towards the middle!"

Having started as a defensive player himself, Hao Ren has an extremely good understanding of the nature of defensive players.

The naive Dani Radja even considered committing a tactical foul, little did he know that all of this was within Mr. Goodman's prediction!

Pull towards the top of the arc!

Seeing Hao Ren make a strong breakthrough with the ball, Morris and Vlaan entered the penalty area almost at the same time.

Hao Ren was also ready at this time.

After a sudden stop, he launched a through ball with his right foot!

boom!

Proficiency: 32/500

That was a low, through ball!

The ball was won by Morris, who made a diagonal run into the left flank!

Hao Ren's pass was indeed excellent; it was practically feeding the ball into Morris's mouth.

"Break the door!"

"We've got it!"

"Grass!"

"Awesome!!!"

"1:0!"

"Leipzig is in the lead!"

【66666】

[That's fast, guys. Didn't they play in the Bundesliga?]

[The Bundesliga is nothing; it can't withstand the pressure from Mr. Goodman!]

"call!"

Clap clap clap!

After exhaling, Rangnick clapped repeatedly, showing no restraint in praising the players on the field.

Turning to face Almas, Rangnick spread his hands and smiled, "I told you, we're far from reaching our limit."

"..."

Almas remained silent.

Although Rangnick's actions were somewhat unethical.

but……

Is this the difference between an assistant coach and a head coach?

"Beautiful Good!"

Morris rammed into Hao Ren, who clenched his right fist and said fiercely, "Getting into the swing of things, brothers!"

"..."

「3:0吧今天，3:0或者3:1。就根据我对前20分钟比赛的观察，波鸿今天应该已经没机会了。」

"Honestly, guys, none of those 11 guys combined are a match for me, Hao Qiuwang."

Here we go again!

"Haoren shoved Terodde away!"

"Awesome! That's it, ruthless!"

Proficiency: 234/250

You have earned 2 contribution points.

Another violent sliding tackle. After successfully breaking possession of the ball, Hao Ren stood up from the grass, shaking his hand as if the brilliant tackle had never happened.

To be honest, this tackle template is really useful.

Before you know it, you're almost at the expert level!

Seemingly affected by Hao Ren's tackles, the Bochum striker seemed hesitant to make any breakthroughs.

Leipzig's style is inherently high-pressing, and now that Bochum's strikers have become timid, they're even less likely to create any attacking opportunities.

"What are you afraid of!"

"Dribble the ball!"

The away team's coach is going crazy!

He could only watch helplessly as Leipzig pressured his players!

boom!

Compper headed away Bochum's 45-degree cross, but Kimmich collected the ball at the far post.

"Chicken Bro!"

"Oh!"

Just as he was calling out the name to get the ball, Kimmich didn't even turn around and just passed the ball to Hao Ren.

This is the tacit understanding between master and apprentice!

With the help of the [De Jong ball-handling and advancing template], Hao Ren quickly launched his own advance.

On the left, Dem and Morris ran together, frequently coordinating with Hao Ren during the advance.

Finally, Demme, rushing to the baseline, executed a cutback dunk, sending the ball back to Hao Ren's feet once again.

Snapped!

[Xabi Alonso's Standard Long Pass Template (Replica)]

Proficiency: -328/0

A long pass was lobbed out, and Hao Ren found Poulsen waiting on the right wing.

Poulsen controlled the ball, adjusted his position, and delivered a cross.

The target is Kimmich, who is penetrating the penalty area.

Snapped!

"GOOO-AAAA-LLLL!!!"

"Goal!"

"2:0!"

"32 minutes in, Leipzig leads 2-0!"

"..."

As the score gap widened, Leipzig players flocked to the corner flag, with seven or eight of them hugging each other.

Rangnick continued clapping, glancing at the podium every now and then.

Unfortunately, Rangnick's position was too poor; he couldn't see Mintzlaff's expression.

However, you don't need to look to know.

The Leipzig chairman must be jumping for joy!

[Mission Objective: Achieve a three-game winning streak starting now]

Current progress: 1/3

Hao Ren high-fived his teammates and checked his mission panel on his way back to his own half of the court.

I feel like we've already secured this victory!

"..."

Snapped!

Kimmich's long-range shot was punched away by the goalkeeper's hand!

The landing point is Terrazino!

Terracino had just stopped the ball when Hao Ren pounced on him, and the two were now glued together.

With such a good opportunity, Hao Ren definitely didn't want the opponent to clear the ball!

During the physical confrontation, Hao Ren kept observing the movement of Terracino's two feet.

Now is the time!

boom!

Hao Ren suddenly stretched out his foot and successfully poked the ball from Terracino's feet into the penalty area.

Seeing this, Poulsen, who was just about to retreat in the penalty area, quickly took possession of the ball, turned around, and then unleashed a low shot.

[Assist, you have earned 4 contribution points]

"GOOO-AAAA-LLLL!!!"

"3:0!!"

"This was another assist from Hao Ren!"

The camera focuses on Hao Ren.

Leipzig's number 20 just completed his brace with an assist!

Here we go again?

【Defensive Midfielder】

[A steal combined with an assist – what else is that but defense! Haters, stop yelling!]

[Awesome! They're not giving the other side a single chance. It looks like it might be a 4-0 victory!]

Don't bet on the score! If you bet on Leipzig to win against Hao Hao, you're pretty sure you'll win. Guys, let's manage our finances, not gamble.

Mr. Goodman is too kind; this assist has increased the odds for his Chinese fans.

"Beep, beep beep—!!"

The first half is over!

"Is this okay, Chicken Bro?"

Hao Ren and Kimmich walked together, each boasting.

Not only these two, but all the other Leipzig players were in a relatively relaxed state of mind.

After all, they were leading 3-0. In the first 45 minutes of the first half, Bochum was almost completely overwhelmed by Leipzig!

"Master, Master!"

Poulsen caught up from behind, squeezed past Kimmich, and successfully got to Hao Ren's side.

"Sir Goodman, do you think I can score again in the second half?"

"call……"

Hao Ren placed his hand on Kimmich's back, remaining silent and pretending to be an expert.
