Champion’s Heart

v2 Chapter 65: Tuchel's breakwater

   Tuchel studied Dortmund, and Yebara naturally also studied Mainz.

   This season's Mainz is almost the same as last season.

   Last season's Mainz finally ranked fifth in the southern division of the U19 league and missed the playoffs.

   And this season, they ranked second, and the youth training team Bayern Munich squeezed behind, to qualify for the playoffs.

  What do they rely on?

   is very simple, alone.

   Last summer, the Mainz Club invited a youth coach named Thomas Tuchel.

   This is not an unknown soldier, and is still famous in the youth training field in Germany.

  Tuhel coached in the youth teams of the two clubs before coming to Mainz. When he first started in Stuttgart, he studied with Ronnick, who now led this small village team in Hoffenheim to create the Bundesliga half marvel. Tuchel led Stuttgart U19 and won the national championship in 2005.

   Later he went to the U19 youth team of the Augsburg club where player morale had played. It was not until 2008, that is last summer, that he came to Mainz to coach Mainz U19.

  In just one season, he led this team to the playoffs of the U19 National League. The ability to tune the team is indeed extraordinary.

   So what does he rely on?

   offensive.

Mainz is a fairly defensive team. This season they lost 26 goals in the 26th round of the Southern League. This is not only the team with the fewest goals in the entire Southern League, but also all the **** in the three divisions. The team with the fewest goals.

  In the southern division of last season, although Mainz ranked fifth, but the number of goals conceded was only 27, still the team with the fewest goals in the southern division.

   It can be said that Mainz's defense has a good tradition.

   But defense alone cannot make this team go from fifth to second.

  Tuher came to this team and infused the team with an offensive passion.

  In the 26th round of the Mainz League last season, Li only scored 43 goals, and the number of goals was very mediocre.

   But what about this season?

   Sixty-one goals!

  Mainz scored second only to Freiburg, who created an average of 11 scoring opportunities per game, and Freiburg is only 68 more than them.

   Tuchel activated Schulle, and Schuler led the team's attack.

   In the southern division, Schüller scored 16 goals at home twice and was the team's top scorer. This was the best season he played in Mainz U19 for three years.

   So Yebara thinks Mainz is a team that is good at attacking and dares to attack.

   And Dortmund's favorite is to play this kind of offense team, because the two sides play against each other, it means that there will be a lot of space on the court, which is very beneficial for Dortmund to play fast pass tactics.

   Now this Dortmund has the courage to fight against any team after having a trident.

  Whether it is Schalke 04 or Freiburg.

   So in preparation for the battle, Yebara has always asked Dortmund to be head-to-head with Mainz, to attack and then attack, not to be afraid of making mistakes.

   But when the game started, Yebara soon discovered something was wrong-this "soon" didn't even take a minute.

  Because when Dortmund was attacking with the ball, he found that Mainz's withdrawal was very, very fast...

   is fast as if he was not prepared to attack at all, he just wanted to defend.

  Here Dortmund passed the football to the defender line, the Mainz players all retracted to their own frontier of the penalty area, and the one at the top was their arrow character Schüller.

   This is not the attitude of Mainz playing offensive football...

   How Mainz played when he was normal, and how they ran after the opponent kicked off. Yebara had studied it, and it was naturally clear that it was definitely not like this.

   This sudden anomaly made Yebara somewhat suspicious, but also... vigilant.

  ※※※

   When Dortmund attacked forward, the speed through the midfield was very fast. Zhou Yi, Goetze, Mark passed the midfield with two or three feet, and hit the front of the 30 meters area of ​​Mainz.

Tuchel, who was sitting on the coach's seat, adjusted his sitting posture, waiting for Dortmund to watch the attack like a slamming wave. .

   When Mainz broke the ball, the backcourt player would hand over the football directly to Schüller in the frontcourt, and he would fight back.

   And at this time, Yebara, who had been thinking about the abnormal behavior of Mainz, suddenly shined.

   "Oh..." He blurted out.

The assistant coach next to    strangely said, "What's wrong, Peter?"

   "Mainz didn't plan to play against us!" Yebara hurriedly.

  Want to understand, he knew too well what Mainz planned to do.

   This can be fatal for Dortmund, who is unprepared!

  Just like Freiburg didn't expect Dortmund to play fast pass with them, they were caught off guard in the German Cup final.

   And Yebara felt that she was also caught off guard by Tuchel...

  ※※※

  When Dortmund's offense advanced to the frontcourt, the football fell to Zhou Yi's feet. If it was usual, at this time, Zhou Yi should quickly transfer the football to Mark's feet, and then continue to insert himself.

   In this way, he and Mark will even be shot dead on the wall of Mainz with the ball.

   But he didn't do it. After receiving the ball, Zhou Yi turned around and passed a kick back!

   The smile on Tuchel's face waiting to watch a good show solidified. He didn't see the scene he wanted to see. This turning made him a little surprised.

  After Zhou Yi passed the ball, he looked up and looked at the situation in front.

  Everyone is everybody.

  This is what Zhou Yi has observed.

   In addition to the Mainz players, Dortmund's own players, in short, densely packed.

   So it's not that he doesn't want to pass the football forward, there is no way to pass it forward.

  Mainz built a line of defense at the front of their penalty area. The two lines of defense are not far apart. At the same time, because the entire team shrinks very backward, so they do not have to worry about the depth behind them will be used by Dortmund.

   If he passes forward, it is tantamount to giving up the ball. He is not stupid.

   Dortmund's fast pass and quick cut tactics had a very low error tolerance rate. Once the football was passed, people ran and the speed was very fast. A little bit of mistakes will be amplified, and eventually the attack will fail.

   And Mainz's way of building a wall in front of the penalty area greatly compresses the passing space of Dortmund players, which will increase the errors of Dortmund players when passing.

  If you keep going fast, you will only needlessly hand over the football to Mainz's feet and let the opponent fight back.

   Therefore, Zhou Yi chose to pass back. At this time, he would rather slow down and give up the tactics of fast pass and fast run, but also make sure to hold the ball first.

  Don't think about adventuring at this time.

   On the sidelines, Ybala saw Zhou Yi suddenly choose to pass back, and finally relieved-Zhou Yi did not follow the pre-match deployment kick, but suddenly changed the direction of the pass, allowing Dortmund to escape.

  He could see that, Mainz was waiting for Dortmund to hit him...

   Fortunately, the person who controlled the rhythm of Dortmund was Zhou Yi, not someone else, otherwise he would be caught in the net...

Zhou Yi almost hit him. If he didn’t have “Eagle Eyes”, he could still see the floor plan of the stadium during the rapid advancement. Through the floor plan, he could understand Mainz’s defensive position and guess Mainz’s Defensive strategy.

   In the virtual world, Zhou Yi played with this team many times. Mainz did play the most common offensive football game in their season. It was not such a tactic in the dead zone.

   It now appears that the effects of the pre-match simulation games were suddenly halved.

   This is a test for Zhou Yi.

  When he can't get familiar with the opponent's tactics through a lot of simulation, what should he do? As a commander, you can't just rely on various plans to respond?

   An excellent commander, facing various emergencies in general, what should he do at this time?

  ※※※

  Zhou Yi suddenly passed the ball back, of course, the Dortmund team's rhythm will be one of the stagnation, so Zhou Yi did not stand in the dark spot fluke, but quickly ran to his pass goal, indicating that he passed the football again.

   And Mark, who had been waiting to catch the ball, turned around and found that Zhou Yi did not pass the football back~lightnovelpub.net~ It's strange.

   "How did it pass back?" he shouted to Zhou Yi.

   turned his back against his Zhou Yi, waved his hand and had no time to answer him.

   It was Gotze next to him that puzzled Mark: "You look around you, Mark."

  Mark turned around and looked around doubtfully, and found that all the players around Mainz were around.

   "There is no way to pass forward." Getzer understood clearly. "They contract defense."

   "Ah...this..." Mark was a little sorry and disappointed.

   Didn't you say it was a match before the game?

   is now completely different from the preparation before the game, what should we do?

   He set his sights on Zhou Yi.

  Zhou Yi received the ball from his teammates, but he didn't even turn, so he passed the football back, but this time the pass was even further back, directly to the center defender Russell Sobeh.

After passing the ball, Zhou Yi still followed a Mainz player. He ran straight back, and they were farther and farther away from Mark.

  Getze also ran back. Mark looked around and ran to the midfield with Goetze.

   left a golden check in front.

  Just like this, Dortmund's quick attack was stillborn...
