Picture newspaper: There is a spirit called persistence!

This game against Brazil was regarded by countless people as the dullest game in this Federation Cup. Although the German team finally defeated Brazil 2:0, the ugly scene and the poor process were indeed not like the strong dialogue that two world-class teams should have performed...

However, during this game, there are also many details that make people feel satisfied and missed.

The first one I want to propose is Sven Bend!

Perhaps, when many people mention Sven Bend, the first picture that comes to mind is defense. Indeed, the role of this midfielder in the overall tactical system of the national team is defense, but also defense, Sven Bend is always interpreting his role again and again. He uses games after game to prove that his success is not accidental!

The most impressive scene happened in the second half of the Brazilian team, facing the world footballer Kaka and Sven Bend, one-on-one, did not give up and chose to chase him back. He persisted until the end and blocked Kaka's way into the penalty area at the front of the penalty area.

There are many players in the game. Once the enemy passes his defensive area, he will choose to leave because it no longer belongs to his defensive range, but there is also a group of players worthy of respect. They choose to do more and contribute more. Sven Bend undoubtedly belongs to the latter.

The final foul was decisive and determined. He should not be blamed, but should be praised!

Following behind, Hulk's corner kick focused his body. As long as everyone heard the muffled sound of the powerful shot, they could easily feel how strong the shot was. However, after enduring such a impact, Sven Bend still chose to poke the ball to his teammates as soon as possible, and sounded the team's horn for counterattack.

My eyes did not follow the ball at that time, but saw Sven Bend. He knelt on the grass, bent over because of the pain, and knocked on the grass. I was moved at that time. The urge to cry, because I could feel that everything he had done just now was done by enduring the pain in his body.

I thought, if the German team's goal to break the deadlock was rewarded based on merit, then Sven Bend should definitely be the first, because if it weren't for him, I wouldn't have imagined that there would be this counterattack.

After the game, I specifically reminded our newspaper reporters to ask Sven Bend, when he asked this kick, he seemed to smile and shook his head indifferently and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore." After coming back, our reporter told me that from Sven Bend's smile, he saw happiness, and was happy that someone could realize his dedication and dedication.

Best friend Yang Cheng, he has emphasized many times that a team that only stars will never win, because behind the stars' shining halo, there must be a group of unknown people to provide support behind them. Sven Bend is undoubtedly the unknown person in this German team.

After the game, Yang Cheng said that the warning brought by the success of the German team is the overall victory of football!

He felt that he knew clearly and understood the role of Sven Bend, but he could not comment on Sven Bend alone. Although he must have praised this midfielder who he valued most more than once, he could not say that in public because he knew clearly. Every word of his own may cause unnecessary trouble to the players.

Like Sven? Bend is not because of his great skills, but because of his persistence, humility, and unfaithful dedication and dedication to the team!

The second thing that impressed me was that I saw a mature, patient, knowing how to persevere, and never give up until the last one!

The Brazilian team's tactics in this game are conservative. Perhaps we can even say it bluntly, it is extremely ugly. Scolari never claims to be an artistic head coach. He also pursues victory as his only pursuit, so he doesn't mind what kind of tactics he uses.

After watching the first half, I was worried that I would collapse. Under the opponent's tenacious pressure and pressing, and the opponent's constant harassment and influence, will any players be unable to help getting angry?

Happy, they did not, but used their attacks and continued unremitting efforts to finally defeat the Brazilian team!

After the game, during the interview with the players, I noticed that several players mentioned the locker room. Although we didn't know what was going on in the locker room, we could find something from the players' words.

Schweinsteiger said that this game made us more mature, more responsible, and more understanding of persistence, because we were always overly dependent in the past, just like a child, but after this game, we will learn to take responsibility bravely, share the burden for the head coach and teammates.

Ram said that during the halftime break, many people thought the game was over, and they all started to complain and began to get angry, but they were used to it, and they calmed down all of us and made us feel hope again for the second half and full of desire for victory!

After the game, I met Barack and asked the former national team captain with a smile, what happened in the locker room?

Barack replied with a smile, nothing happened!

I want to beat him up, but I can't, because nothing may really happen, or maybe it's just this group of young players who have completed a mature transformation in an instant, just like a man who is prone to suddenly realize that he should take on more and more important responsibilities after his child is born.

But there is no doubt that I clearly feel that Yang Cheng's team is constantly changing.

If before the 2012 European Cup, Yang Cheng had great hope for the German team to play a refreshing offense, then losing to Spain in the first European Cup made Yang Cheng clearly realize that this hope was based on the castle in the air, so he gave up his unrealistic delusion and chose a defensive counterattack tactic that was more in line with the national conditions of German football.

Open and proactive defense is a set of tactics tailored for the German team. After that, the German team's tactical style changed drastically, and they stood out from the group of death. They finally reached the final and finally defeated Spain. The concept of fan-shaped defense has caused a huge response in the football world all over the world.

Even now, the European Cup final was still regarded by countless head coaches as a classic showdown that changed the concept of football's defensiveness. The defensive system played by the German team in this game was learned and learned from countless people.

But now, we can clearly see that on the premise of stabilizing defense, the German team is further strengthening the team's offensive cooperation and tactics, diagonal offense, and high-level infiltration and advancement. When the wing forward is pushed forward, the German team's offensive routines are constantly improving and changing.

There is a data on hand. In this Federation Cup, the German team's shooting percentage in the penalty area reached 59.4%, which proves that the German team is more pursuing to complete the last shot in the penalty area, which also makes them ranked first among the eight teams in the shooting percentage, higher than Spain.

Also, if we analyze the forward progress of the ball as a data analysis, the German team has ranked first among all teams with 56 forward advancements so far, and their 64.5% success rate is also ranked first among all teams, with 27 successful long passes. It is also the first.

I don’t know how to describe such a team. The defense is unbreakable, the offense is changing, and full of weird changes, which makes people unable to defend, but what I can be sure of is that this German team is definitely stronger than the German team that won the European Cup during the European Cup, and it makes people feel even more scared!

15 years ago, the youth training plan implemented by Yang Cheng in Germany had just begun to be implemented. Even Yang Cheng and Beckenbauer and others had never expected that with this huge reform of German football, talents would emerge quickly and their style would gradually become lost.

15 years later, it was Yang Cheng who led this national team again. He won the European Cup, laying the foundation for a strong team. Now he has led the team to show amazing progress and strength in the Federation Cup, showing a new style of German football.

What causes all this is the unremitting efforts of all German footballers over the past 15 years, and it is also the result of Yang Cheng's continuous supervision and reminder of German football in the past 15 years. In the past few years, Yang Cheng led the national team to always stick to his own path and constantly improve and improve his own strength.

In 2010, after Yang Cheng took over the national team, he stated that he would strive for the World Cup championship in 2014!

Today, three years later, we see hope!

Perseverance has created the prosperity of German football back then, and will surely create the great rejuvenation of German football in the future!

And Yang Cheng, no matter whether he can win the Federation Cup or whether he can lead the team to the World Cup next, he will leave a strong mark in the history of German football and become the greatest head coach in the history of German football and the most far-reaching influence on German football!

The comments on this front page of the Photo Newspaper have caused a huge response in German football and the whole world.

Perhaps many people think that the German team is boring to play against Brazil, but there are also many people who see the transformation of the German team from this game. At least this team saw hope and confidence in the first time in a strong dialogue.

Unfortunately, Yang Cheng, who is in Brazil, did not see this report. After leading the team to play against El Salvador, he asked Barack and Paul Bayer to take the team back to Sao Paulo for training, while he went north with Benitez to Recife and watched the game between Côte d'Ivoire and Uruguay on the spot.

Veteran Drogbay fought because this may be his last major competition, but unfortunately, Uruguay was better. In the end, with the goals of Cavani and Suarez, he eliminated Côte d'Ivoire 2:1 and successfully qualified from the group.

In this way, the semi-final showdown list came out, Brazil met Spain, and Germany met Uruguay.

After completing all the group stages on the 23rd, the first semi-final will be held on the evening of the 26th. The German team is lucky than Uruguay because they play one day earlier and can get an extra day of rest time. The game will be held in Belo Horizonte.

"I didn't expect that we would go around and around. Our opponent was still Uruguay!" After watching the game, Yang Cheng smiled and shook his head when he returned, because Germany and Uruguay had played a warm-up match before the game.

But to be honest, this warm-up match is of little significance to the tactical investigation of both sides, because neither of them did their best in the warm-up match, and everyone was using this warm-up match to run-in and adjust their state. Therefore, the performance of both teams in the warm-up match is of no use. The key is to look at the performance of both sides in the official Federation Cup match.

"After I go back, I will ask the think tank to send the report immediately!" Benitez nodded.

When playing Brazil. When the German team faced Hulk's free kick, Deepalma immediately proposed to let the wall be higher, and not to reveal gaps. These are the data provided by the think tank before the game. They found that Hulk was not good at such high-arc free kicks, and they won with strong shots.

In this case, the German team's man wall and defense were targeted, which indeed blocked Hulk's free kick.

Sometimes, the result of the competition is to accumulate a lot of details in the process and finally pile up.

"The three forwards of Uruguay are all outstanding. The trident remains strong!" Yang Cheng said with envy.

Fran, Cavani and Suarez, these three forwards have a tacit understanding in the offense, cooperate with each other well, and have strong scoring and personal abilities, which undoubtedly has become the sharpest weapon in the Uruguay team.

In contrast, the current situation of the German team, the forwards can play Klose and Gomez. The latter is not very consistent with Yang Cheng's tactics, which has to be said to be a big regret, and Klose is now very old.

If Yang Cheng had a Cavani in his hands at this time, he firmly believed that the German team's offense would be a step further than it is now, and the German team's glory period would be longer.

Cavani is a forward with a comprehensive body, tall figure, but very fast, with a large range of movement, and a wide range of deterrence for shooting. He has a hard head, but his skills are comprehensive. Whether he is a center forward's back and turning balls or a forward-scratch goal, he is competent. Moreover, his pulling and running are active, and his counter-attacking on the spot is also excellent.

Such a forward has a huge help to any team's offense, especially for a team like the German team that lacks strikers. It's a pity that Yang Cheng can't use the transfer fee now, which is a pity!

"Have you noticed that Uruguay's midfield organization is not bad, and the ball advancement is more based on the forward retreat to the midfield to complete it!" Benitez thought for a while and asked Yang Cheng.

Yang Cheng nodded, "This is natural. If the midfield cannot pass the ball, there are only two options. The full-back will lead to the ball forward, just like Chelsea asked Ashley Cole to advance on the sidelines, or to go to the forward to retreat to the midfield and connect the offensive promotion route of the midfield."

After hearing this, Benitez smiled slightly and looked at Yang Cheng, saying nothing, tacitly.

To a certain extent, taking the full-back's forward assists is equivalent to adding some hidden dangers to the defense line. Uruguay refuses to take such a route and does not have a suitable full-back, but taking the forward retreat route, because the three Uruguay's forwards are all very strong, so this can be achieved.

In fact, it’s still the same sentence: first ensure the quality of defense and firmness, then consider the offense!

Cavani has a large range of activities, abundant physical fitness, and strong tactical execution. Such a forward is a bit like the Dutch Kuyt or Olic at Bayern back then. They are all of this type of tandem player and have great functions.

However, such tactics also have major problems. One important thing is that taking the forward's routine of retreating to the midfield can indeed play a good role in ideal conditions, but once the forward players are in poor condition, it may lead to the team's full-line passiveness.

Cavani is in poor condition, and Uruguay has problems with the ball path. Fran and Suarez are in poor condition, which directly leads to insufficient pressure on the penalty area, and may also cause chain problems.

Uruguay's trident is indeed excellent. To a certain extent, the tactical system created by Tabares created Uruguay's hegemony in South America in 2011. However, it must be mentioned that Fran is already 34 years old and has long lived up to his courage. Moreover, he has played few games in recent years, and his condition has always been a big hidden danger.

When playing against Spain, Uruguay seemed passive. It was because Spain strangled Uruguay's ball path to advance, exerting strong midfield pressure on Uruguay, and finally crushed Uruguay. Now that he met Germany again, Yang Cheng is also very confident in taking Uruguay.

After all, there is a big difference between strong teams and weak teams.

A strong team has a rich talent reserve, can combine different tactics and can also exert the power of a strong team, but the weak team is different. It is difficult for a weak team to combine a lineup that is enough to challenge and comparable to a strong team, which can be said to be a big deal. Once you encounter problems again or are curbed, you will almost be helpless.

But no matter what, Yang Cheng and Peta Barrez, at least the head coach can combine and piece together such a team when facing Uruguay's current disadvantages and bring Uruguay to the position of South America's overlord. For this reason, it is worth Yang Cheng's thumbs up to Tabarrez.

Of course, admiration is just something off the court, and keep it in mind. On the football field, Yang Cheng will try his best to defeat Uruguay!
