Chapter 241 Despair After Hope
After Zhao Jinge scored the second goal of the German team in the first half, the singing of the Marseilles in the Velodrome Stadium completely disappeared after the start of the game.

All the French people on the scene had already anticipated the final result of the game. It seemed that the star-studded France did not even make it to the second half.

"No one would have thought that the French team would play like this at home, and perhaps many people had foreseen that the Germans would have an advantage in this game.

But I believe that apart from the German fans, most other neutral fans would never have imagined that the game would evolve into what it is now.

Top-heavy, the Frenchman's wings suck, can you imagine that?

Except for two full-backs in their thirties and Griezmann, a striker who can switch back and forth between the center and the wing, the French team has no other players who can show defensive and offensive threats on the wing!

Their offense can only rely on the conduction and counterattack in the middle. After passing the tough interception of Khedira and Toni Kross, they will head-to-head with the top central defenders such as Hummels and Boateng.

If this kind of attack can play a threat, then it really is a ghost!

Royce and Thomas Muller went smoothly on the two sides. In addition, the threat of the German team's two defensive midfielders in the attack also helped Zhao Jinge and 272 completely dismember the French's defensive organization in the ribs.

From the wing to the center, the German attack line is already unstoppable!
There is no suspense!There is no hope!
The Germans are sure to win this game. Let's wait and see how the German team will perform in the final! "

In the live broadcast room of Sky Sports in the UK, Lineker directly concluded the game.

"That's not necessarily the case. Maybe the French can stage another Istanbul."

Andy Gray next to him interjected.

"Oh please, spare AC Milan! They've been ridiculed long enough!
I don't deny that before the end of the game, everything is possible on the football field, but the possibility of the French team coming back is too small, and the old Germans will not give them a chance!
If you can lose in such a tailwind, then you look down on Loew and his German team too much!

If nothing else, the first half is coming to an end now. In the second half, the German team will definitely choose to switch to defensive and counterattack tactics while maintaining the midfield meat grinder!

Just like the second half of the first half when they played against Italy, while maintaining midfield pressure and defensive strength, there are three counterattack strengths in front of Zhao Jinge, Royce, and Muller.

If the French dared to risk their lives to attack in the second half, the German's defensive counterattack may also smash their heads!
They have already reached the semi-finals, and with an old fox like Loew in charge, there will be no troubles in the German team, unless Boateng wants to play basketball again!
Otherwise, I can't think of the French team, what is the comeback point! "

Lineker was talking endlessly, and Andy Gray, who was sitting next to him, didn't make any further rebuttals.

Because this is the case, as long as the German team can be as cautious as ever in the second half, then the French team has no chance of a comeback.

Unless, the German team's defense really made a series of major mistakes as Lineker said,

But after the last mistake, Boateng, who was held by Love for two days in a row, would not give him another chance even if he wanted to play basketball.

The game resumed and the first half ended shortly after the Frenchman re-kicked off.

At halftime, Deschamps did not give Payet a chance to continue his performance in the second half and replaced him with Kingsley Coman.

Didier Deschamps no longer cared about his own defense. He was replaced by a speedy winger and prepared to continue to attack the German team in the second half, even if he continued to concede the ball, it didn't matter!
There is no way to do this. To continue to maintain the situation in the first half is to wait for death, replace Koeman, let Giroud be the team's single arrow, Pogba will be the midfielder, and Koeman and Griezmann will be separated on both sides , continue to attack forward.

In the midfield, Kanter and Matuidi partnered with the midfielder and four defenders to strictly prevent the French from defending the third defensive area. If it is not possible, Matuidi can also press forward to support the front attack line.

Maybe you can survive to win a glimmer of life.

And the German team really changed their tactical system as Lineker said. While maintaining midfield suppression and control, they began to use defensive counterattack tactics to deal with the French team in the second half.

Reduced the intensity of the full-court oppression, concentrated personnel in the midfield, and focused the oppression on suppressing the French team's counterattack and competing with the French team for the ball.

There are two advantages to doing this. One is that you can fight the French counterattack while waiting for work, and the other is that you can maintain the team's physical reserves as much as possible.

No matter how good the physical reserves of the German players are, after six battles, except for a few young people like Zhao Jinge, the physical reserves of most Mesozoic and veteran players have begun to turn red.

This is because the first five games went particularly smoothly. The team has no injuries and no overtime, so Loew has enough room for rotation to maintain his physical condition.

As for the Portuguese and Belgian teams that have experienced overtime in the first half and rely on a set of main players to dominate the world, their overall state is undoubtedly worse than that of the German team.

If they can pass the French team smoothly, then the German team will definitely retain a considerable amount no matter which of the above two teams that have lost a lot of vitality in the knockout rounds in the upper half. big advantage.

After changing the candidates and tactics, the second half of the game officially started.

The two sides have changed sides and fought again. Under the current game situation, Loew and Deschamps are naturally in very different moods.

One side has the chance to win, while the other side is forced to the edge of the cliff.

At this moment, Loew is looking forward to whether his team's defensive counterattack can completely seal the victory for the German team.

Deschamps pursed his lips and silently prayed that his team could further speed up as he wished.

After all, if the French team failed to play their own rhythm after the formation change, but fell into the trap of the German team's defensive counterattack, then the game would be completely gone.

After kick-off in the second half, the two wingers of the German team were positioned near the center line, leaving only Zhao Jinge forward.

The formation of the German team is also almost shrinking near the center circle to play midfield control and the intention of strangling the oppression is obvious.

As long as Royce or Neymar change positions on this basis, they can form a standard counterattack double arrow with Zhao Jinge.

272 can be added to the wing on this side at that time, and such a four-four-two anti-reverse formation has emerged, and it is very convenient to change formations.

This is a set of evolution system that the German team has played quite skillfully. I don't know how many strong teams have died in this routine before.

If the French team also falls into the rhythm of the German team, it will be really difficult to make a comeback.

On the other side, the Frenchman has also completed his transformation, and the under-20-year-old Kingsley Coman was ordered in danger.

"The French team has changed, it seems that the French team still wants to do their best in the European Cup held in their home country!

Deschamps knew that fighting in the middle of the midfield was a dead end, and the French team couldn't hold back the offensive of the German team's wings, so he chose to hedge on the side!

If you can't defend, then strengthen the offense, and use the same side attack to force the two German team's two wingers to converge!Very courageous adjustment! "

The commentators on the scene were both surprised and excited. The game is getting more and more interesting until now.

The strong suppression and scoring of the German team is what all fans expected, but the tenacity and boldness of the French team are a complete surprise.

This is the rhythm to carry resistance to the end!

Hector looked at Koeman, who was as thin as a bamboo pole, in front of him, but he still didn't care. He was just a young player who had just come off the bench for Bayern.

Contempt is not counted, but I feel that the opponent's coach is a bit taken for granted. Maybe he is not as threatening as Payet in the offense!
But looking at Griezmann who moved to his side again, Hector still cheered up.

From the first half to the present, although Griezmann only took two shots, it seemed that he had no chance to shoot, but one shot was successfully saved by Neuer, and the threat of two shots is self-evident !

His ghostly running position and quick breakthrough caused a lot of trouble for the German team's defensive players. Griezmann, who entered the semi-finals of the European Cup, has reached the peak of his career in terms of state and performance!
That is almost the super high level of the third person in the world!

Boateng was almost stunned by Griezmann before.

If Hummels hadn't fallen to the shovel in time, maybe Griezmann would have gotten a single chance.

Good technique, coquettish movement, the key is that there is also an amazing spirituality that can be seen. The current Griezmann really cannot be underestimated.

Hummels and Boateng are not afraid to defend together. With the defensive midfielder in front of them, it is not a big problem to defend Giroud, but it is more difficult for Hector to face Griezmann alone.

Therefore, Hector did not dare to be careless. Griezmann is a threat he cannot relax his vigilance. After all, his performance and performance are too good
Deschamps' tactical adjustments can be regarded as maximizing the support given to several forwards.

Koeman and Griezmann were also very active at the back. Pogba's precise long pass gave them many one-on-one opportunities with the German defenders.

Although Griezmann and Hector have played against each other several times in the first half, they are still in the test of each other.

After the two face each other, they can be regarded as winning or losing each other on the offensive and defensive ends.

Coman's performance on the other side was quite satisfactory, but he still dared to make moves, and he did not show timidity in front of Hewedes.

But it is a bit difficult for him to do more. After all, Hewedes is now a top right back in Europe and the starting international of the German team.

For Koeman, who was under 20 years old last time, not to mention anything else, his physical fitness was completely crushed.

Koeman's speed advantage can't get too much from Hewedes here.

Therefore, compared to the right, the French team's left offensive is still not very active, and Giroud needs support from time to time.

Because the German team changed their game tactics before, this meeting did not form a confrontational situation with the French team. Instead, they safely deployed defenses in the midfield.

Khedira and Kroos are very focused, plus a 272 who can pull the side to help defend at any time, the German team's defensive efficiency is always online.

All they have to do now is wait patiently for the next opportunity.

Time is completely on the side of the German team, so there is no need to worry, Loew is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.

As time passed, the French team's offensive rhythm gradually slowed down after the German team's continuous defensive success.

Just as the German players on the field had gotten used to the Frenchman's indifferent attack on the wing and in the center, the situation changed suddenly.

The French midfielder Matuidi and Kanter on the field formed a double-team to Muller who was holding the ball, and Pogba in the center quietly began to advance.

When Zhao Jinge saw Pogba's movements, he subconsciously hurried back!
"Watch out, Pogba!"

The sound of Zhao Jinge's roaring reminder had just sounded, and Pogba had already received a direct pass from Kanter after the steal. 272 ​​It's too late to do interference restrictions at this time!
"Beautiful double-team defense! No foul! Pogba went forward!"

Under Pogba's organization, the football quickly passed to the frontcourt after several passes.

Koeman dropped back to get the ball just past the half-time circle of the German team, and Pogba started to move forward quickly, and then received Koeman's return pass.

In front of him on the right, Griezmann, who is in excellent form, has penetrated to the right side of the German team's penalty area.

Da Giroud leaned against Hummels at the front of the penalty area.

The French team's most offensively threatening frontcourt trio have all entered the heartland of the German team, waiting for an opportunity!

Facing several receiving points ahead, Pogba, who is currently at the peak of his first career, did not choose to play the ball.

He directly stepped on his two long legs, showing everyone the dribbling advancement of a top attacking midfielder.

A tall man of 1.9 meters first used a sideways turn after an emergency stop to change direction, and swayed past Teacher Tony who came to stop him!

Then he used a Marseille roundabout to pay tribute to Zidane, and dunked Khedira who came to defend.

"This big man, well-known in Juventus, penetrated the German team's midfield defense by himself!
In today's game, he showed why he was named the best player in Serie A last season!

The German restricted zone is dangerous, and a beast from France is keeping an eye on it! "

The French commentator at the scene stared excitedly at the scene on the field.

In the eyes of everyone, Pogba made a diagonal pass, delivered the ball accurately, and cut to the right side of the German penalty area.

Giroud immediately moved towards the left side of the penalty area tacitly, pulling Hummels out of the center of the penalty area.

Facing Hector's interception, Griezmann, who was in extremely hot form this season, made a false shot and passed the ball back to the top of the German team's penalty area.

Then he went directly to the middle of the German team's penalty area. Pogba, who was in the middle of the German team's penalty area, used his back to hold Boateng who was about to grab, and then took advantage of the opportunity to slant the ball in front of Griezmann. One push!
The French fans at the scene had already clenched their fists nervously, holding back for nearly 10 minutes, and the French team finally ushered in an excellent opportunity!

Facing Pogba's through pass, Griezmann took advantage of the opportunity and slammed the goal vigorously!The goal is the upper right corner of the German goal!
Neuer, who was the last line of defense of the German team, made a judgment in the blink of an eye.

Tall and long-legged, he jumped high, and at this critical moment, his stretched fingers finally blocked Griezmann's shot!
"My God! Neuer made a world-class save! Griezmann's shot was only a centimeter or two away from the goal!"

After the shot, Griezmann, who was looking forward to celebrating the goal, froze in place after Neuer's extreme save, and could hardly believe his eyes.

All the French people who were about to cheer at the scene also completely quieted down at this moment. There is nothing more desperate than giving hope and then giving despair, and the current French team is like this!
