Step by Step to Win

Chapter 278: Counterattack

The match between Wolfsburg and Dortmund caught the eyes of the entire Bundesliga. With a four-game winning streak, Wolfsburg greeted Dortmund at his home court. This game is a battle between the top of the league and the third in the league. Just like the last time they met, it is another crucial battle to determine the outcome.

For this game, Wolfsburg can be said to be recharged. In this game, they put on the team's strongest lineup, relying on several consecutive games to make Turan start, to hone the skillful cooperation between him and the players, after so many preparations only for this A game, they can not afford to miss the slightest.

The visiting Dortmund was equally confident. They are the top team in the league, 5 points ahead of Bayern, and they are proud of their first place in the league. In the first half of the season, they defeated Wolfsburg with a score of 3-1, but this time they met, they didn't think things would change.

"Today's game is directly related to the Bundesliga championship. The battle between Wolfsburg and Dortmund will have a great impact on the championship between Dortmund and Bayern, as well as the final winners of the Champions League qualification. The impact of this game. Welcome everyone to watch this game. I’m Simon and this is my partner Beckman. We are here to explain this game for everyone.”

This game was also broadcast on German TV One. For this game, the media is also concerned. The two commentators looked at the players on the court, making introductions while observing the expressions of the players on both sides.

They want to know. What do the players think about this game.

On the court, Gao Shunyao's expression was obviously very serious. Players on both sides have been looking forward to this game for a long time. He is no exception. He wants to win in this game, this kind of mind is more urgent than when he is playing against other teams.

There is no reason for him. He feels that it would be a bit embarrassing to be double-killed by Dortmund at home and away.

They are now third in the league, and in the three matches that have been played against the league first and second in the league. They didn't win a game. And if this game loses again, that is to say. As the top four teams in the league, they lost five of the six games they played against the other three teams.

Such a record is definitely a big joke. Faced with a strong team in six games and five defeats. The proper way is to weaken when strong. As a team at the forefront of the league, it is a joke to have such results. Gao Shunyao can't forgive himself if he really plays like that.

Therefore, after the whistle blew, Gao Shunyao was also particularly active on the court, and he wanted to create some trouble for Dortmund's defense. Therefore, he did not spare his physical strength.

Less than a minute after the opening, he almost made his first goal. The kick-off Dortmund encountered full resistance from Wolfsburg in the frontcourt. They had to pass the ball backwards. When the ball passed to Hummels' feet, Gao Shunyao suddenly rushed up, trying to grab the ball. Do a direct assault in the backcourt.

His action almost succeeded. It's a pity that Hummels was more careful than him and solved the fight with a pass back. This pass caused the audience to sigh, and the commentators couldn't help but open their mouths.

"Today's game, Wolfsburg's condition was better than usual."

Seeing Gao Shunyao's performance on the court, Beckman also took the lead in speaking. As an narrator for German TV One. He has always been known for his ability to grasp the situation on the court very well, although his commentary has also been criticized by many people as going with the crowd. But I have to admit that he can at least keep up with the waves.

For this game, he grasped it very well. As soon as the game started, Gao Shunyao began to attack Dortmund's backcourt, which in itself was an obvious signal. Before the game, people had a lot of speculation about this game, and some people believed that the best way for Wolfsburg was to counterattack defensively at their home court. Their strength is slightly weaker, but there is a certain bonus to the home game. If you can save face and defend yourself at home, then a game will become extremely difficult for Dortmund.

But obviously, Wolfsburg didn't do this. They chose to pounce with full force from the beginning of the game. Gao Shunyao's offense is a microcosm. Wolfsburg is constantly pressing on the field, and their midfield is constantly pushing forward, trying to cut off Dortmund’s offensive line. This style of play is obviously more attractive than defending and counterattack. Around the stadium, the cheers of the fans also waved higher and higher. If your team is playing at home, it should be like this.

"Wolf Castle maintains the offensive, the momentum is just right."

For the game, Beckman made a simple statement, but his partner Simon had a different view of the situation. He also curled his lips while watching the game before speaking.

"Wolf Fort maintains an offensive, but I don't know how long Wolf Fort's offensive can last."

Simon's attitude was somewhat disapproving of Wolfsburg's offensive. In his opinion, Wolf Castle is a bit too arrogant to do so. Among the commentators in the Bundesliga, Simon has always been known for his unique insights. Although some people think he is nonsense, his views are also of great reference value.

"Do you think Wolfsburg's physical strength is not enough to support the offensive, and it can't last for a long time?" Beckman asked rhetorically after listening to him.

Beckman’s question made Simon laugh. "No, I don’t have this idea: The coach of Wolfsburg is Magath. There is absolutely no problem with their physical strength. The offensive lasts for as long as possible. The problem I said is not theirs. The offense will suffer from insufficient physical strength. The trouble I said is Dortmund's counterattack."

As a commentator, Simon has watched a lot of games after a season. He has enough knowledge about the characteristics of these two teams. And as he said, as soon as he came up, he was raided by Wolfsburg. Dortmund did not choose to defend himself. On the contrary, they were also making a counterattack at this time!

On the court, a through ball from Turan was stopped by Hummels. He gave the ball to goalkeeper Weidenfeller, and Weidenfeller immediately gave the ball to Piszczek. Dortmund's full-back got the ball and immediately ran forward. Facing Wolfsburg's attack, Dortmund did not choose to shrink the defense. Although it was an away game, their response was a sharp counterattack.

On the frontcourt, Shinji Kagawa got a pass from his teammate. He took the ball and ran forward for two steps, and then immediately divided the ball to the full-back who was on the side. On the wing, Gotze also moved closer to the middle. During the counterattack, Dortmund moved extremely smoothly. Although the players on the stadium were madly blocked by Wolfsburg, they were still attacking in their own way.

Their choice is to have a face-to-face confrontation with Wolfsburg!

"Wolfburg should not choose to play proactively. This is the most unfavorable state for them. Apart from Bayern in the entire Bundesliga, I don't think there is any team that can play against Dortmund. Who will do it? Such a choice is tantamount to seeking your own ideas."

Dortmund’s heroic spirit made the Wolfsburg fans a little bit silent, but Simon continued to speak at this time, and when he heard what he said, Beckman also asked, "Do you think Wolfsburg’s offense is inferior to Dortmund? "

"Of course not as good." Simon didn't even think about it. "Isn't this something obvious? Wolfsburg is far worse than Dortmund."

"Their ranking differs by only two."

"But the difference between the two is that one has a championship and the other does not." Simon retorted, "Their gap is the difference between the championship team and the general team. This gap is very obvious."

Watching the game, Simon was also talking about his own views. For these two teams, he knew enough about the two teams, and he could also say something, "The gap between the two teams is fundamentally very large. Dortmund's Football relies on the active running of the players. Their running is very good. When each player is running with the ball, there will be people around to catch up immediately. This kind of overall football attack is considered the most advanced in the Bundesliga. Tactical concept."

"The tactical concept of Wolfsburg still stays in the age of Magath. Magath hopes to rebuild the frontcourt of the fantasy trio of Wolfsburg and win the championship again. Unfortunately, his success back then was accidental. On the one hand, he is catching up with Bayern when he has no money to build the stadium. On the other hand, he has encountered good enough players. Without good enough players, it will be difficult for him to form a good tactic."

"Gao Shunyao and Mandzukic, the level of these two players is not bad, but when it comes to skills, they are far inferior to Dzeko. Both of them have body and impact ~www.ltnovel.com~ but they are underfoot. The level of delicacy is far worse. They can't do the work at the feet that Dzeko can do. It is precisely because of this that in the offensive system of Wolfsburg, there needs to be a Perisic who is on the wing from time to time. To make up for the lack of detail in Wolfsburg’s frontcourt. However, even so, they still lack organizational skills. They don’t have a Misimović-style field-controlling player. This is their biggest problem. They are. That’s why Turan spent a lot of money in the winter to introduce Turan. However, Turan has only played a few games after the transfer, and I hope that he can play a good goal right away. Is this possible?"

Simon's analysis can be said to be very reasonable: Wolfsburg's offense is indeed not as beautiful as Dortmund, which is also recognized by people. Is it really possible to count on the forward line that is far inferior to the 08-09 season, and to work a miracle with a Turan who has just transferred for a short time?

However, sometimes, a beautiful offense is not necessarily the most effective offense. Wolfsburg has been preparing for the game for a long time, but it did not come for failure. Just as Simon's voice just fell, there was already a cheering around the stadium!

"Wolfburg scored a goal!"

At this time, Beckman had already spoken first. Compared with the chattering partner just now, his words are very short, but the weight is a lot heavier, "Wolfburg took the lead, and now Wolfburg has a 1-0 lead!" (to be continued)
