Chapter 205 The pre-match training is all about revenge
On January 1, Hamburg beat Werder Bremen 27:3 at home.

In this game, Bremen coach Schaff obviously learned the lesson of the first round of defeat.

He abandoned his own 433 system, but also used 4231 to deal with Pan Yi's "diagonal transfer" style of play.

Junuzovic and Fritz sit in the double midfielder and compete fiercely with Hamburg's midfielder.

This tactic has also paid off.

In the 80th minute of the game, the score was still 2:2.

For Hamburg, Sun Xingmin and Vardy made contributions respectively, while for Bremen, Lukimya and Papastathopoulos scored a goal each.

But when the game entered the final 10 minutes, the fierce fighting had already increased the fatigue of Bremen players.

At this time, Hamburg seized the opportunity of a corner kick. Taking advantage of Bremen's lack of marking, Kjaer scored a header.

In the end, Hamburg still won the goal battle and took all three points!
Shafu, in the end, still failed to fulfill his desire to revenge Pan Yi.

……

The victory over Werder Bremen was just the beginning.

In the next three rounds, Hamburg will usher in a devil schedule.

They will play against Eintracht Frankfurt, Borussia Dortmund and Borussia Mönchengladbach in succession.

After the 19th round of the Bundesliga, these three teams ranked fifth, fourth, and seventh in the standings.

In other words, every game is a tough battle!
Especially the first two games are a severe test for Hamburg.

In the first half of the season, Hamburg lost to Frankfurt and ushered in Pan Yi's first Bundesliga defeat.

As for Dortmund, Hamburg only won by one goal at home. This time it is the turn of the away game, and the pressure will definitely be greater.

But no matter what, meals have to be eaten bite by bite, and battles have to be fought one by one.

At least these three games did not have such a special situation as a double match in a week, and Pan Yi didn't need to make any special arrangements, just do it!

The first is the first home game against Frankfurt.

The last defeat was largely due to the fact that Wu Lei and Casemiro were injured during the international match and could not play, which affected the tactical deployment.

Now that Hamburg has all the staff, Paulinho and Robertson have also been added as two strong players. Who else is afraid of him?

So Pan Yi gave a speech before the game:
"Since the last time we lost to Eintracht Frankfurt, I know you are getting more revenge. You must all remember that day, the anger and loss is unforgettable."

"Frankfurt is a very strong team, and the process of this game will definitely be difficult. But we have to believe in ourselves and will strive to play the best of ourselves in this game."

"Because we are stronger! They are ranked fifth, but we are still ahead of them, we are second!"

"When facing a team that has beaten us before, I hope that everyone will instinctively arouse the emotion of wanting to prove themselves against the enemy in the game, and the unforgettable anger at that time. I think for me , and our fans are the same, we have to go all out!"

Well, sure enough, it was very useful to click the option of "revenge" in the pre-match preparation meeting. After hearing this, the boys rushed out of the locker room screaming!
……

When the game started, Frankfurt striker Rakic ​​kicked the ball to his teammate Mel, and the Hamburg players on the opposite side launched a violent attack towards Frankfurt's position at the same time, all approaching the opponent's defense line.

This made Frankfurt a little bit flustered for a while and didn't adapt.

Their starting lineup today is almost exactly the same as the last time they faced Hamburg. They just replaced the original starting center Okern with a new aid from the winter window, center Serdan Rakic ​​from Croatia.

The winning team does not need to change, Frankfurt's head coach Aminfei is also convinced of this truth.

He just wanted to use basically the same lineup to beat Hamburg again, so that the sullenness in his heart could be relieved.

Yes, kicking burgers is also revenge for Aminfei.

He was actually the head coach of Hamburg two seasons ago, but after being defeated by Bayern in a 2011-3 score in March 6, he was ordered to sack get out of class.

This meritorious coach who once led Stuttgart to win the Bundesliga championship in the 2006-2007 season is of course not very happy in his heart.

He felt that Hamburg should give him more time.

Later, the Frankfurt team in the second division threw an olive branch to him, so Aminfei went to lead the team, returned to the Bundesliga a year later, and then performed well this season, completely breaking away from the relegation zone.

After defeating Hamburg in the third round, Aminfei was of course happy. He felt that the senior management of Hamburg had found out that it was wrong to fire him.

But the taste of revenge and slap in the face, I naturally want to taste it again after tasting it once.

Therefore, he determined to beat Hamburg in this away game as well, and have a home and away double play, so that he can truly prove his worth!
It's just that the oppressive posture that Hamburg has put on since the beginning of the game today feels a bit difficult to deal with?
The rhythm of the game was full at once, which was not a good thing for Frankfurt, which is not good at physical strength and fighting.

However, after all, Aminfei is a coach who has won the Bundesliga championship. He naturally studied the recent Hamburg games before the game.

He knew that sometimes Pan Yi would rush to start the game. If he could score a goal, he would completely control the rhythm of the game in his own hands.

By that time, Frankfurt will be very passive.

And Aminfei was already prepared.

He allowed Rod and Schwegler, the two midfielders, to recover as much as possible, including the midfielder Mel also retreated to the midfield to help defend.

In this way, although the Frankfurt players were violently impacted after the opening and were very passive on the scene, they could still retreat steadily and stabilize their position.

"Come on, just press forward, wait until we defend against your three axes, and see how I will fight your counterattack!" Aminfei thought to himself.

Defensive counterattack is the foundation for Frankfurt to gain a foothold in the Bundesliga this season.

Stronger than Dortmund, Frankfurt was not defeated under their onslaught, and finally tied with their opponents.

And some teams that like to play strong offense and are weaker, such as Werder Bremen and Mainz, are often defeated by Frankfurt's counterattack, losing him by two or three goals.

So Aminfei is very confident that Frankfurt can definitely use the same routine to beat Hamburg again.

This will also allow him to defeat Pan Yi again.

Aminfei's most well-known period was when he led Stuttgart to the championship.

But this season he has led newly promoted Frankfurt to the top six in the Bundesliga, which also made him famous again.

Had it not been for the better record of Hamburg led by Pan Yi, who is from the Dragon Kingdom on the opposite side, Frankfurt would definitely be the dark horse of this season.

Therefore, if Hamburg can be defeated again in tonight's game, then Aminfei can not only prove that the original decision of Hamburg executives was wrong, but also prove that he is stronger than Pan Yi!
Wouldn't the face-slapping plot where the ex beat the incumbent be more exciting?

However, as the game progressed minute by minute, Aminfei slowly discovered that Hamburg's offense may not be described as "three axes".

They are four axes, five axes, six, seven...

The offensive is wave after wave, without stopping!

Gradually, Aminfei couldn't laugh anymore, and the expression on his face became more and more serious.

……

After adapting in two official games, Pan Yi sent what he believes is the strongest main lineup in Hamburg at present, and it is also his ideal complete body:
Center Vardy.

Front midfielder De Bruyne, left winger Sun Xingmin, right winger Wu Lei.

Double midfielder Paulinho + Casemiro.

Left back Robertson, center back Rudiger+Kjaer, right back Carvajal.

Goalkeeper Navas.

Therefore, Pan Yi also started to use his advanced oppression tactics in this game.

This set of tactics, he was born out of "Madman" Bielsa's wonderful 3313 formation, and improved it into this set of 4231.

First of all, it is necessary to form a diamond-shaped pressing team with 4 people in the front field. When attacking, the 4 people are 1 center forward, 2 wingers and a midfielder. When defending, the 4-man team will immediately press the front court. Defensive drop position.

Then the two full-backs hug each other, step forward to support the winger when attacking, suppress the opponent's side when organizing, and fall to the position of the full-back or full-back when defending.

This requires two people to run up and down, and one person supports a sidewalk.

This is also the biggest reason why Pan Yi introduced Robertson!
Due to his existence, Hamburg's running ability and offensive ability on the left have been greatly enhanced, and now Pan Yi does not need to use the overload method on the right to play like he did in the first half of the season.

And has been using the right attack mode, once Carvajal is restricted, the overall advancement of Hamburg will be affected.

Now that Robertson is here, such problems can be easily solved, and Pan Yi can also use a new oppression and offensive system freely.

And to cooperate with these two fullbacks is one or two "gates" in the middle, that is, Paulinho and Casemiro.

They sweep in front of the defense and help the backcourt to play the ball when attacking.

And the two central defenders concentrate on dealing with the opponent's single center forward, which has a numerical advantage and is easy to defend.

If the opponent is a double striker, one of the double midfielders—usually Casemiro, who is more defensively capable—retreats a bit in front of the double central defenders to defend against their double forwards together.

Under such a tactical system that is balanced on both sides and up and down, Hamburg's current frontcourt pressing system is also more organized.

When the opponent's central defender holds the ball, the center forward of one's own side cuts off the connection of the two central defenders while rushing up, and the two wingers cut off the opponent's pass to the full-back.

In principle, this is still approaching the player with the ball while cutting off the opponent's short pass.

In this era when goalkeepers generally have no ability to play the ball, the lethality of this four-man pressure in the frontcourt is huge. The opponent can hardly organize an attack from the ground, so they have to use their feet.

At this time, Paulinho, an all-round midfielder, can play a role. He can assist the central defender to easily control the high ball.

In the process of oppression, Pan Yi's requirements for the "rotation" of oppressors are also more reasonable.

The 6-7 people in the frontcourt will alternately rotate to the first line to press the opponent, and those who retreat to the second line can get a temporary "rest", so that from the perspective of the team, the crazy oppression can last for 90 minutes.

After all, no matter how good Pintus' training level is, human beings always have a physical upper limit.

No one can run at full speed for more than 10 minutes without getting tired, let alone 90 minutes.

And if at this time the opponent withdraws a midfielder to assist the backcourt to play the ball-just like Frankfurt now let Mel recover.

Then Hamburg will immediately add another midfielder to participate in the oppression. This person will usually be the more versatile Paulinho.

This is actually what Pan Yi is happy to see.

The more opponents retreat, the less defensive pressure your side will have. If you dare to retreat, I, Pan Yi, dare to press all of them!

Therefore, on the current field, Hamburg only left 2 central defenders in the backcourt to deal with the opponent's striker and the opponent's long pass, vying for the opponent's big kick, and everyone else was participating in the oppression of the frontcourt.

This made Frankfurt completely suppressed in its own half, and it was difficult to play the counterattack they are good at.

And even if an opponent successfully hits the ball in the backcourt once in a while, the Hamburg players will use various means, such as close counter-grabbing, tactical fouls, etc. to delay the opponent's advance, and all players will also take the opportunity to quickly retreat and set up a defensive position.

This style of play is actually reflected in some teams, such as Dortmund and Atletico Madrid, but Hamburg under Pan Yi's execution is more aggressive.

They will use more defense around the front, and their desire to grab the ball is stronger!
This is almost unique in today's world football. This kind of inhuman oppression and super aggressiveness make Frankfurt players at a loss.

After withstood Hamburg's [-] axes, they finally couldn't stand it anymore.

Coupled with the cheering buff of more than 5 fans in People's Park, Hamburg became more and more courageous!

During a frontcourt press, Paulinho successfully intercepted Mel's ball and quickly passed it to Vardy in front.

With his back to the attacking direction, Vardy leaned against Frankfurt's central defender with his body. After stopping the ball with his back, he took a step back and suddenly crossed to the right side of the top of the arc.

Someone behind De Bruyne was watching closely there, but the Belgian didn't stop the ball, but pushed it lightly with the arch of his foot.

This is equivalent to setting up a cannon for the person plugged in behind.

And the person who ran up to fire the cannon was Paulinho!
This is also one of his most important characteristics.

He can be defending the interception one second, and come in from the back row to help the offense the next second.

This time, he had already swung his thigh, facing the cross pass and shot angrily!

The ball was about 30 meters away from the goal, but Paulinho hit it very powerfully, and the ball went straight to the dead corner of the goal!

Frankfurt's young goalkeeper Trapp was a little stunned. He didn't even have time to make a save before he saw the ball go into the net.

1: 0!

Hamburg leads at home!

Paulinho was so excited that he ran throughout the game, cheering and celebrating the goal.

This is his first goal in an official game since he joined Hamburg, and it is also his first goal in the top five leagues!
Pan Yi also jumped up excitedly on the sidelines and punched continuously to celebrate, but soon began to direct the players to pay attention to stabilize their mentality, and to slightly reduce the intensity of oppression, and the front line also retreated a little.

Now the game has been going on for 30 minutes, and the Hamburg players also rushed for 30 minutes.

In the absence of a goal, it is true that Pan Yi asked everyone to rush and attack, but now that the deadlock has been broken, there is no need to maintain such intensity.

After all, no matter from the perspective of physical consumption or avoiding player injuries, it is necessary for the team to relax in order to achieve sustainable development in the long season.

As soon as Hamburg received it, Frankfurt didn't dare to press it immediately.

After all, Aminfei is also an old man, he always felt that there must be some conspiracy behind Pan Yi's actions.

So he told the players to play steadily and wait patiently for the opportunity.

In this way, the two sides seem to have a tacit understanding.

You seek stability, and I also seek stability. Frankfurt is not in a hurry, and of course Hamburg is in no hurry.

So the last 15 minutes of the first half were spent calmly.

But in the second half, Aminfei found that something was wrong!
Why is Hamburg still so slow, as if it is going to make a 1:0 and go home with three points?

Now he is in a hurry.

After all, the one behind is Frankfurt!
As a result, Aminfei began to direct the players to counterattack again.

Of course, he still has to guard against Hamburg's counterattack.

He knows that De Bruyne, who currently ranks first in the Bundesliga assists list, is Hamburg's most important offensive starting point and the core of Hamburg's offense.

Even Paulinho's goal just now was assisted by De Bruyne!
Therefore, as long as De Bruyne can be firmly pinched, the power of Hamburg's counterattack may be reduced a lot.

So Aminfei arranged for Rhodes to mark De Bruyne all over the court.

As for the front midfielder, the confrontation ability and running ability will definitely be relatively weak. As long as someone is sent to defend, it will definitely not be able to perform.

But Aminfei obviously underestimated De Bruyne.

First of all, De Bruyne is not the traditional classical attacking midfielder. He has the running ability to execute oppressive tactics, and has an excellent overall view to be the core of the team.

Secondly, in Pan Yi's 4231 system, the offense is not completely dependent on De Bruyne alone.

Because Pan Yi knows that when the team's source of inspiration is all concentrated on one person, the inspiration can be easily cut off.

In the 02 World Cup, Veron was the core of the attack, and his sleepwalking performance was an important reason for Argentina's weak attack.

Therefore, Pan Yi asked everyone in the team to move and more or less undertake the task of attacking.

Single-core is not reliable, dual-core is not reliable, what is needed?It is distributed cloud computing! ! !
There is no absolute core but everyone can play a core role. This is also an important concept in Bielsa's football philosophy.

Of course, Pan Yi's tactical thinking is still different from Bielsa's.

Specific to the current Hamburg, the operational policy can be summed up as follows: try to find De Bruyne if there is an offensive opportunity, and attack with all members if he is seen dead!

Therefore, when Frankfurt strictly implemented the tactical instructions to stare down De Bruyne, they discovered that Hamburg began to become full of attack points.

At this time, the Hamburg team seems to have no clear organizer, but everyone is an organizer;
Everyone has to think, but does not depend on anyone's thinking;
When everyone can be a source of offensive inspiration, the opponent can't limit Hamburg's performance!

In the 70th minute, Hamburg played a classic teamwork.

They first made several seemingly meaningless transmissions in their backcourt. When the attention of the Frankfurt players was attracted, Carvajal on the right had quietly ambushed to the right side of the opponent's penalty area.

At this time, Rudiger made an over-the-top long pass and accurately found Carvajal.

After Carvajal stopped the ball, Frankfurt's two defensive players were already in position.

But Carvajal did not rush, but continued to put the ball in the middle and gave it to Casemiro who had already run over to meet him at this time.

Casemiro saw that De Bruyne was surrounded by opposing players, so he continued to cross to Paulinho.

Paulinho made a long pass at a 45-degree angle!
At this time, the left back Robertson has also plugged in at high speed.

With just a few passes, Hamburg's offensive focus has instantly shifted from the right to the left.

And the flying speed of the ball is always faster than the running of people. Frankfurt's defense has no way to keep up with Hamburg's footsteps all at once.

As a result, there was a flat plain in front of Robertson.

After running a few steps with the ball, he made a decisive pass. Vardy inserted in the middle and deliberately missed, and there was no one around the right winger Wu Lei.

The Dragon Kingdom striker didn't waste this opportunity either, as he fired a low shot past Frankfurt's goal.

2: 0!

Hamburg leads by two goals!
Almost at the same time that Wu Lei scored this goal, Pan Yi was preparing to make a substitution.

Rest, give me all rest, and prepare for the next round against Dortmund!

Wu Lei, Sun Xingmin and De Bruyne were all replaced by Lin Zhijian, Westerman and Ogo. Pan Yi actually played a pure defensive formation with five backs, leaving only Vardy in front Continue to harass.

There was nothing Aminfei could do about such a change.

By doing this, Pan Yi is telling you that I just want three points, this game is over for me, what do you want to say!
Although Hamburg moved back after the substitution, the strength and hardness of the defense did not decline.

As long as Hamburg does not make mistakes, patiently shrinks the defense, and maintains a proper physical confrontation, it will be difficult for Frankfurt to score.

Therefore, facing such an impregnable fortress, Frankfurt, who are not good at attacking, have nothing to do. Although they have been attacking at the last moment of the game, they can't play any tricks.

In the end, with the goals of Paulinho and Wu Lei, Hamburg defeated Frankfurt 2-0 at home!
This victory can be regarded as revenge for the loss to Frankfurt in the first half of the season. At the same time, it also allowed Hamburg to win all three games after the winter break!

If you count the first half of the season, Hamburg has remained unbeaten in the Bundesliga for 13 games!

This result is even better than Bayern Munich.

So, at this time, more people are turning their attention to the next round of the Bundesliga.

The previous champion Dortmund will host Hamburg at home.

Many people believe that the Hornet can break Hamburg's undefeated myth at the Westfalenstadion!
