The biggest change in the 4-2-3-1 formation for Schalke was that it wouldn't look so passive as it used to against the opponent's all-out press.
Werder Bremen's frantic counterattack, this time for real, started to launch a frenzied attack on Schalke.
Unlike Wing play tactics, Thomas Schaaf didn't let his team play mainly on the wing.
After carefully studying Schalke's last round of games, Thomas Schaaf had discovered the loopholes in Schalke's defense in the middle of the field.
Thomas Schaaf, who watched his team members frantically attacking Schalke's center, coldly glanced at Magath, who was not far away from him.
Although this game, Magath also in order to make up for the loopholes in the middle of his own, added an additional defensive midfielder.
But the new formation didn't have that much time to get used to it.
Unlike Su, who is a passer-attacking midfielder.
Bremen attacking midfielder Alan Hunt, who was born in 1986 and is only 24 years old this year, has a strong and fast blitzing ability.
Today, in Thomas Schaaf's system, he plays the role of the sharp knife that is used to plunge into Schalke Midfield.
Facing the first time rushing Su.
Alan Hunt just flicked the ball to the left, then accelerated and passed Su with ease.
Although Su showed his tenacious spirit, but helplessly, the defense was garbage, even if he followed Alan Hunt, it was not useful at all.
Only, after Alan Hunt saw that his teammates did not have any good catching point, he actually flicked the ball directly backward and made a smooth juggling turn.
This turn also made Su, who was close to him, pounce at once.
Su just wanted to turn around, the flirtatious Alan Hunt actually played in front of Su on the bicycle!
This provocative action also caused Su to be upset for a while.
Su is not a good bully, just when Su is ready to give him a love toehold, someone on the other side of the room is the first to move!
Niemeyer Baumann, Su's pet baby, couldn't stand to see his baby being used as a stake.
With his long legs, Niemeyer Baumann madly charged at Alan Hunt, who was still showing off his skills in front of Su.
“Bang!” The sound.
Alan Hunt was directly knocked over to the ground with a ball by the ferocious Niemeyer Baumann.
Su also had a moment of fear when he looked at the ferocious Niemeyer Baumann.
This blow was really too vicious.
Alan Hunt, who had just flaunted himself in front of Su, was now rolling on the turf in pain.
The referee naturally blew off the game for this kind of collision.
However, the honest Niemeyer Baumann didn't make any additional moves.
The referee gave Niemeyer Baumann a little warning and left it at that.
However, the referee did not give a card, and Alan Hunt, who was still playing dead, immediately got up and complained.
The rest of the Bremen players also gathered around the referee and started to chirp about Niemeyer Baumann.
Stolen novel; please report.
“Don't worry Su, defense no you don't have to worry about it, I've got it!”
“I'll do the dirty work!”
Looking at the referee who was surrounded in the center, Niemeyer Baumann walked to Su's side with a calm face and patted Su's shoulder to comfort Su.
At this moment, a wave of warmth suddenly filled Su's heart, which had just been slightly hurt.
Especially after seeing Niemeyer Baumann's serious look of “you know me, I know you”.
In the seventh minute of the match, Werder Bremen also got a free-kick from a bad position.
Alan Hunt took the free - kick, and instead of lifting it directly into the box, he passed it directly to Arnautović, the team's right winger on the right side.
Arnautović received the ball, moved it forward a bit, took a few steps, and then handed it back to Alan Hunt, who ran in to take it.
Bremen was still perched in the middle of Schalke's play.
“Defense is still a problem, although Su's attacking ability is already unquestionable, Bremen is determined to use Su's middle as a breakthrough!”
“Although Magath's side arranged a double defensive midfielder formation, the biggest hidden problem now is the cooperation between No.2 Peer Kluge and No.35 Niemeyer Baumann, who made his first appearance this season!”
“You know, DOUBLE DEFENSIVE MIDFIELD is the configuration that tests the tacit understanding of teammates the most!”
“Compared to the double - central - backs who only need to complement each other near the penalty area, the defensive area between them is much bigger!”
“Without sufficient bonding, the double defensive midfielder is likely to be counterproductive at times!”
The words had not yet fallen.
Bremen's side really did catch the gap between Peer Kluge and Niemeyer Baumann.
Alan Hunt, who received the ball, turned at the first opportunity and headed directly towards Schalke's backfield.
Niemeyer Baumann did not hesitate to rush again.
However, just when Niemeyer Baumann was about to rush to Alan Hunt, Alan Hunt directly left foot to the ball to the left, handing the ball to the backfield inserted his own defensive midfielder Torsten Frings.
Then he went straight behind Niemeyer Baumann.
Normally in a double defensive midfielder formation, the other defensive midfielder would be ready to fill in for his teammate as he moves up the field.
But Niemeyer Baumann was too quick to give Peer Kluge a chance to react.
After a simple one-two, Torsten Frings quickly gave the ball to Alan Hunt, who was frantically moving forward.
At that moment, Schalke's other defensive midfielder Peer Kluge was still defending the left side.
In an instant, Schalke's right side was directly penetrated by Werder Bremen.
Thomas Schaaf on the sidelines was excited to see his tactics working, his fists were clenched and his face was red with excitement as he waited for the moment of success of his tactics.
The speedy Alan Hunt rushed to the front of Schalke's penalty area in no time, and now Metzelder, who had been keeping a close eye on Claudio Pizarro in the penalty area, had to put down his opponent and rushed to Alan Hunt.
The cunning Alan Hunt was waiting for this moment!
With his right foot, he shoved the ball forward.
The soccer ball goes straight past Metzelder and appears at the feet of the unmarked Pizarro.
The 33-year-old Bremen veteran doesn't let go of this golden opportunity.
Aiming his right foot at Neuer's hand, the goalkeeper pushed the ball over!
Despite Neuer's best efforts to cross his body to pounce on the soccer ball, the soccer ball still crossed his fingertips, and finally rolled into the goal against the goalpost!
“Beep!”
A whistle blew!
The referee pointed his right hand to the center circle to indicate that the goal was valid!
And at this moment!
The originally silent Weserstadion felt like it had been detonated!
“GGGGGGG----OOOOOOO----AAAAA----LLLLL!!!”
“GGGGOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLLL!”
“Claudio P..izarr.... .o!!!”
The Weserstadion live DJ erupted into a terrifying hiss!
All the Bremen fans in the stands celebrated even more wildly.
Pizarro, who scored the goal, also jumped right over the billboard of the stadium and rushed into the excited fans!
In an instant, Pizarro was drowned out by the celebrating crowd!
“Oops! We've lost the ball!”
“I told you! Double defensive midfielder in the middle will have problems!”
“I didn't expect Bremen to play right through it so soon!”
“Niemeyer Baumann rushed this ball too much!”
“He should have communicated with Peer Kluge in advance!”
“That's the reason for the lack of understanding!”
Watching the opponent equalize just minutes after taking the lead, Duan was also bitter!
-[wocao, Duan, your poisonous tongue is too powerful, you concede a goal with this mouth!
-Haha, this isn't the first time, haven't you noticed that when Duan tells Schalke to pay attention, Schalke loses the ball?
-The poisonous tongue has been activated!
-Damn, I'm laughing my ass off!
-Hey, it's still a problem with the middle defense, no way, a strong offense can only result in a relatively weak defense.
-It's okay, the game has just begun! Don't worry, Su has a minimum spend, I don't want to force it, just assist hat-trick!
-Wocao, you think Bundesliga is run by Su, you can have a hat-trick if you want!
........
While all the Chinese fans were still marveling at Schalke's goal.
Far away in Barça, Spain.
Sitting in his mansion, Messi, the king of Barça, was shocked!
At this moment, in front of him .....
