Super Coach

In the history of football, I am afraid there is no team that will be so addicted to the eldiez system like Argentina.

The so-called eldiez means 10 in Spanish. In the football field, it represents the No. 10 player who connects the midfielder and the striker, which is the traditional front waist.

As early as 1928, a reporter named Pollocko wrote in a magazine called Sports Illustrated: A child with a dirty face, hair is reckless, and his eyes reveal cleverness, wandering and cunning , Eloquent, but also with a flashing gaze, which shows a rogue smile, but there is no change in the mouth, which is full of small teeth, as if nibbling the rest of the bread yesterday will fall of.

He regarded the child he described as a spiritual statue of Argentine football, and the character and characteristics of the child he described until the end of Maradona ’s birth, so that all Argentines were completely Admired, and logically, Maradona has become a symbol of Argentina's football spirit.

Perhaps they are stuck in the quagmire, but they never lack the pursuit of this type of player.

From Maradona to later Ortega, Dali Sandro, Aimar, and even Belon, Riquelme and others can count, the Argentines have been tirelessly looking for their own football spirit The successor of the new player No. 10.

However, whether it is Ortega, Dali Sandro or Aimar, or Belon and Riquelme who have achieved success and certain achievements in Europe. They are ultimately unable to satisfy the football spirit in the minds of all Argentines, because they can not assume the responsibility of the No. 10 jersey.

The world of football has changed. The traditional No. 10 midfielder can no longer be established in the current football system.

The style of the Argentine national team is in the same vein. Through the cooperation of the trio, the ball is quickly transferred to the front court, and then handed over to the front court players to take the ball. Seeing that it is necessary to complete the final pass. It is still necessary to make a breakthrough. This kind of play relies heavily on the core, just like Argentina's dependence on Maradona.

Argentina's famous coach Menotti once described the Argentinian football culture.

"Every player in Argentina always wants to make a fatal blow every time they take the ball. Then win the game, but football does not always happen as you wish, football is like life. Goals are like real love In life, you ca n’t get up at 6 o’clock every morning to find your true love, because love is an encounter but not a request, you can only prepare for the love, and then wait for it to come, you ca n’t go Look for it! "

"The same is true on the football pitch, you always have to do everything other than scoring goals, such as passing, and wait patiently for the goal to arrive. But once our players are on the court, they are always anxious Impatient to find his true love, so we need a number 10! "

However, with the transformation of modern football, the traditional No. 10 front waist has completely withdrawn from the stage. Even players as strong as Riquelme cannot stand in the European League, which proves that the decline of the traditional No. 10 is inevitable.

This trend is also affecting Argentina ’s league. The traditional No. 10 processing plant has been relegated. This also means that the No. 10 player of Argentine football has suffered a serious fault. There is a lack of contact between their forwards and midfielders. . The reins set on their players were broken, and everyone started to run like a wild horse.

Maradona does have an outstanding ability to understand football. He very clearly grasped the problem of Argentine football, so he repeatedly rejected Riquelme. He wanted to transform Argentina and put this Pampas Eagle The dependence on the eldiez system is completely eliminated, making the traditional front waist completely history.

At this point, Maradona is definitely worthy of recognition, but the symbol of Argentine football's transformation of the national team failed, because he gave up the traditional front waist, but failed to give a good Argentina has found an organizer who can bring stability and order to the midfield.

In the end, Maradona had to compromise on this situation. He chose to bet, playing almost 415 tactics, completely handed over the midfield to Mascherano, and then let Messi return to the middle, but Messi ’s responsibility Nor is it the traditional number 10.

However, such reforms ultimately failed, because Mascherano could not cover a large area like the midfield, and Messi, although excellent, could not take on such a big responsibility alone, because he was not Marathi. Dona!

After Maradona, whether it is Batista or Savilla, they want to reform Argentina, but the effect they have been able to achieve has been limited. One important reason is ultimately in the midfield ... Yang Cheng's research on Argentina has been started for many years. From the World Cup in South Africa, he has mastered a series of problems and disadvantages of Argentina. At that time, the scouts of the German national team had conducted a series of studies on Argentina.

In 2010, after Yang Cheng began to take charge of the German national team, he asked the think tank to start tracking and researching the top teams in the world. He almost wanted to treat every top team as the next game. Opponents to study, and then thoroughly study them, once they really meet, they will be more confident.

So how to play Argentina, the German national team has been conclusive from the beginning.

Sevilla is still playing 433 in this game, goalkeeper Romero, the back line is Rojo, Federico Fernandez, Garrett and Sabaletta, the three midfielders are Mascara Nuo, Banega and Di Maria, the front trident is Aguero, Messi and Ravić.

The offensive ability of the Trident in the frontcourt is indeed impressive. Among them, Aguero and Messi are the top players in the European League goals, plus a player who has already passed Serie A training Victory, the Argentine trident is luxurious enough to be coveted. Moreover, top benches like Tevez and Higuain are also on the bench.

Yang Cheng's arrangement in this game is also a bit similar to 433, but the position of the players is different.

Goalkeeper Neuer. The back lines are Ram, Bad Steuble, Hummels and Jerome Boateng. This line is the best line of defense in the World Cup so far. Throwing a ball, so almost the media all over the world rave about this line of defense.

But Yang Cheng is not clear, the German team's defense is the overall defense. Relying on the back and forth cutting tactics of the fan-shaped defensive system, he did not directly expose the defense line in this game, but arranged the defense line to be responsible for the trident of Argentina.

Argentina has no front waist. Mascherano protects the line of defense, Banega is responsible for sorting out, but the position is also relatively backward. Di Maria is more on the wing, so Yang Cheng arranged three midfielders in this game. Sven? Bender was responsible for setting up behind the Argentine Trident, especially behind Messi. Interception zone.

Specially arranged for such a delayed midfielder, Yang Cheng's intention is actually to keep Sven? Bend in the shadow of Messi's retreat, he believes that Eswen? Bend's ability can certainly complete his layout. Mission.

Schweinsteiger was in charge of looking at Banega, and Tony Cross was relatively close. Direct threat to Mascherano.

Left and right side roads, on the left is Thomas Muller, pressed up to wrap around Sabaletta, Podolski is in a relatively backward position and walked back to the midfield. Helping to defend Di Maria, while Gomez is at the forefront, responsible for Federico Fernandez and Garrett.

In addition to such a one-to-one targeted arrangement, Yang Cheng also made the back line shrink closer than usual, he was clear, as long as Thomas Muller could entangle Sabaletta. Argentina's wing threat will lose a lot. Once the defense line shrinks and guards the restricted area, forcing Argentina to pass, then their offensive threat will lose the greatest threat.

Strangling Sabaletta, suppressing Argentina's midfield, forcing Argentina to take Messi's retreat, and then let Sven? Bend entangle Messi, so that the threat of Argentina's front attack will be greatly weakened, will Become chaotic!

At the same time, Yang Cheng let two Argentina central defenders take the ball, but as soon as the ball came out of the central defender, the German team immediately began to press step by step, forcing Argentina's ball to run smoothly and unable to promote effectively.

The situation of the game seems to be proceeding according to Yang Cheng's plan. From the beginning of the game, Argentina has been contained very badly, especially their midfielders, they have always been unable to effectively transfer the ball, because the German team's three midfielders , Plus a Podolski who always retreats to the midfielder when there is no ball, can always arrange a defensive line between the Argentine midfielder and the Trident.

Once the connection between the midfield and the frontcourt was cut off, Argentina had to take the Messi retracement route.

Argentina didn't even have a threatening chance to pass the ball into the German team's penalty area until the 13th minute. It was still Messi's retreat to take the ball and use his personal ability to break through Sven? Bender. Under the pinch, he just put the ball into the penalty area, but Ravić's response was late, and Neuer made a decisive shot to win the ball.

Yang Cheng has been observing the situation very seriously since the opening, constantly adjusting the team's defensive layout, especially the containment of the Argentine midfielder, plus Sven? Bend's position is behind, so Messi once To withdraw, you must move away from the goal with a diagonal line and go to the sides to get the ball.

In this way, Messi ’s threat has been greatly weakened, and the German team ’s shrinking defense can always effectively ensure the quality of the defensive midfield, and thus stabilize the situation.

After stabilizing the situation, the German team began to consciously prepare to counterattack ... Tony Klos is a smart player, at least everyone who has seen him play football will think so.

In this game, Yang Cheng arranged for him the position of the front waist, defensive task is not heavy, is responsible for harassing Mascherano, the defensive focus of Argentine midfielder, but he also has a responsibility to mobilize the offense.

But I have to say that Mascherano is a very good defensive midfielder. Tony? Clos failed to get even a little cheap from him, several times in Mascherano The loss at the foot made the German midfielder sigh, "No wonder the boss said. This guy is as difficult as a dog skin plaster!"

After losing the ball, Tony Clos also caught Mascherano for the first time, delaying Argentina's counterattack, and then Argentina's Ravić crossed on the right, but Humels in the penalty area was steady. The ball is cleared out of the bottom line, corner kick.

Tony? Clos ran back quickly, sweaty, he looked pressured. At this moment, Ram approached.

"The boss just said, seduce Mascherano to the right!"

Tony? Clos stunned. Looking at the sidelines, Yang Cheng made a code word towards him, indicating that he would go to the right to get the ball. Let Podolski participate in the defense in the midfield, and this is obviously an adjustment change after Yang Cheng observed the situation.

Why?

Tony? Clos wondered a little, because he always hit the middle road, why suddenly asked him to pull to the right?

Soon, Tony Clos noticed a phenomenon, that is, because the German team suppressed the Argentine midfielder, Banega and Di Maria in order to shorten the distance to the trident in the frontcourt, so the position was pressed more reliable Go up, but Mascherano did not dare to leave his line of defense, resulting in a slightly longer distance between the two sides.

Mascherano is the kind of player with excellent personal ability. It goes without saying that the defense, one-on-one is almost difficult to break through him, so under normal circumstances, the distance is slightly larger.

As soon as he thought of this, Tony Cross immediately understood Yang Cheng's thoughts. Pull away Mascherano!

To understand, Tony Klos also knew what to do. When the German team attacked again, Tony Klos ran to Mascherano ’s right to raise his hand, Podolski The ball was quickly brought to his feet.

Tony? Clos's movement is clever, and the position selection is also interesting. He chose an area not covered by the defender's defense, which is closer to Mascherano, but if Mascherano wants to defend, he must leave the middle.

But this time the latter seemed to be a little hesitant and did not leave his position. Tony Klos turned after the ball and passed the ball to the foot of Gomez pulled from the middle to the right side. The German forward was fast. After a stop and a draw, the ball will go straight to the goal of Argentina like a shell.

Romero showed a solid performance this time, steadily put the ball on, let Gomez complained!

When he shot just now, the angle was blocked by Garrett. If he can get a little bigger, he can have this shot!

But this attack also gave Argentina a wake-up call, that is, if Tony Cross is allowed to take the ball here, the danger is not high, but he can't get the defender to grab, even if it is left-back Rojo. Going up, but if Podolski goes to the bottom and Tony Kroos passes to the side, then it is directly a cross from the bottom.

Gomez's deterrent in the penalty area is not a joke, so Tony Klos has a great threat to take the ball in this area.

The fight between you and me was fierce. After the one-time leak, Mascherano also began to realize the threat of the thin-looking German in front of him, so when he saw Tony for the first time When Clos pulled into the empty area on his left to take the ball, he immediately chose to pounce.

If Mascherano leaves his area as usual, Banega should return to the front line to protect and fill the gap between Mascherano, but when they are too long, Banega Lack of sufficient co-defense consciousness, leading to Mascherano leaving the center, no players filled this vacuum well, which immediately exposed the hole in front of the defense.

After Tony Klos got the ball on the right, he did not fight with Mascherano and knocked to the front of the penalty area.

The ball almost ran back against Mascherano. As soon as the latter reached Tony Klos, the ball passed by him, almost parallel to the line of the penalty area, and passed directly to the top of the arc.

Because Gomez just ran to the right to answer, almost scored a goal, so this time when Gomez ran to meet Tony Klos again, Gare also followed, leaving Fernandes in Midfield defense.

When Thomas Muller quickly sprinted from the left along the front of the big penalty zone towards the top of the arc, Fernandes also wanted to grab, but Thomas Muller took the initiative, faster, after the ball, the **** He took the ball into the penalty area.

This trip is not very fast. After entering the restricted area, his body just shook off Fernandes.

Both Garrett and Mascherano immediately realized that something was wrong, because they felt that they had won, so they immediately rushed from the right side, but when they noticed Thomas Muller again, the German strong scorer He has lifted his right foot, volleyed against the ball!

"Muller !!!"

The live commentator was also at the moment Thomas Muller got his feet, shouting his name loudly.

"Goal scored !!!"

Echoing the roar of the on-site commentator was the cheers of countless German fans and countless German fans waiting at the moment at the TV. They must have been cheering, for the German team in the 24th minute I was amazed when I took the lead, but I was excited.

The live TV footage kept repeating Thomas Muller's right foot volley after throwing off Fernandez, the ball from Romero and the right post, the goal scene, the whole In addition to Fernandes, the Argentine did not even come back in time to defend.

"In the final analysis, Argentina ’s overall formation is still too loose, especially in the midfield, and Banega and Mascherano are always easy to disconnect, especially when Barnega is turned from attack to defense. At that time, there was not enough time to return to the front to help Mascherano! "

"The two consecutive attacks are to fight this point, Savilla must learn a lesson!"

But the German players ignored so many, they all rushed out of the stadium excitedly, celebrating on the sidelines that the team finally broke the deadlock on the field, 1: 0! (To be continued)
