"Schweinsteiger passed the ball and gave Tony Klos..."

"Tony Klos passed to Ozil, and Ozil passed directly to the right side of the penalty area, and Klose quickly got rid of Bonucci..."

"Klose got the ball in front of the baseline, and passed it back, beautiful, Thomas Muller inserted it, and pushed it into it..."

"Oh, Chiellini! Chiellini blocked Thomas Mueller's shot in front of the goal!"

"But we can see that German captain Ram seems to be protesting to the referee, believing that when Chiellini cleared the ball, the ball had crossed the goal line, but the referee obviously trusted the referee's decision very much. They unanimously believed that the ball did not cross the goal line, and we can also see from the slow motion that although the ball seemed to have entered, it should not cross the goal line!"

"It's really a pity that the German team has been creating murderous intent since the 22nd minute. Now, just 15 minutes have passed. They have scored a total of 6 very threatening shots and attacks in these 15 minutes. Among them, Ram's long shot outside the penalty area and Thomas Muller's push shot almost penetrated the Italian goal!"

The live TV camera was given to Yang Cheng on the sidelines. When the Chinese saw Thomas Mueller pushing the shot, he slapped his forehead hard, feeling that the ball was not even made, which was a bit too scam!

Then he was given to Plandelli, who seemed to be shouting at the players and making adjustments.

"We can see that after the opening, the German team began to steadily adopt a strategy of playing defense well while taking into account both counterattack and offense. After the opening, Italy's attack made Yang Cheng take the opportunity to fight back, and his counterattack was not conservative at all, and he frequently created threats."

"I don't know what kind of adjustments Plandelli will make, or he will find a way to stop the decline in the first half and re-arrange targeted tactics during the halftime break. I personally think that Casano should retreat to assist the midfield. Although doing so is equivalent to giving up the offense, the midfield is completely suppressed, and the two forwards have no effect in the front."

But this only represents the view of the on-site commentator. It does not represent Plandelli.

At least after adjustment, Plandelli still had no intention of rushing to assist the midfield. He planned to focus more on how to break the German team's control, but once the German team's situation has become, it will not be easy to break it.

"Rafa, do you believe it or not? Sometimes people are really weird!"

Yang Cheng stood on the sidelines. As the situation was controlled by the German team, he began to feel in a mood to chat with Benitez.

After experiencing a little chaos at the beginning, the German team quickly got into the state and reflected the effects of the secret training over the past few days on the court, especially the targeted defense against Italy, which was done very well, and the counterattack and offensive cooperation also created a large number of threats.

Yang Cheng couldn't think of anything else to be dissatisfied with in this situation.

"What do you mean?" Benitez asked, holding his seemingly seven-month-old belly.

Yang Cheng smiled slightly, "We either easily believe in our first intuition, or we start to become hesitant. Often, for a long time, we hesitate for a long time, or after this period of time, we have caused immeasurable mistakes, we look back and think about it before regretting not doing it according to our first intuition."

After hearing this, Benitez immediately remembered the current situation on the court. He knew that Yang Cheng was talking about the current hesitant Plandelli. At least if he had some courage, the latter should have made major adjustments, but he still made small fuss.

With the current situation in Italy, there is only one choice that can be made, that is, to maintain a balance between the midfield and the German team again, which requires them to invest at least one more force into the midfield, either withdraw from the front line or raise from the defense line.

The German team's frontcourt run range is large, and Thomas Muller and Ozil take turns to create threats to the wing. It is obviously unlikely to pull out a player from the back line. The risk is too great, but if you want to withdraw one from the front line, who will you have to withdraw?

Casano is not good for singles, Balotelli is very domineering, but the problem is that the German team's defense line, especially the two central defenders, are both in the back. The purpose is to fear and curb Balotelli's speed. England's defense line is higher, allowing Balotelli's speed to be fully displayed, and Yang Cheng naturally cannot make the same mistake.

In other words, whether it is to remove Casano or Balotelli, Italy's offense will be severely weakened. Plandelli is unable to accept this yet because he is also very clear that just one goal can completely change the current situation, so he still wants to continue to hold on and continue to adjust around Pirlo.

Previously, Plandelli wanted to use Ram to insert it to create articles and let Balotelli hit the back, but Badstuber is getting more and more into the state. Under Kyle's command, he steadily blocked the left side and frozen Balotelli's threat, which made the latter never create murderous intent.

In addition, Yang Cheng himself is very clear about the risks of forward attacking the full-back, so he specifically plays on the left and right Jerom Boateng only moves forward when Ram retreats, but he usually goes to the midfield and plays his cross and diagonal passes, and rarely advances to the frontcourt to directly participate in the offense.

In this way, the German team's defense is always ensuring one more person than the Italian double striker.

There is one more midfielder and one more backcourt, so the German team's advantage will naturally be obvious and the defense will naturally be firm.

Of course, the so-called "long" does not mean that the German team can play more than 11 players, but a result of running.

It's like Thomas Muller and Ozil, their positions are in the front midfielder, circling around Pirlo, and they are considered midfielders. However, once the German team launches offense and counterattack, any of them can advance to the front line and cooperate with Klose, especially when Thomas Muller is forward, they can directly become a double striker.

The players' position on the court is not fixed, but keep moving and running. Whoever is better at moving according to the situation and creating a numerical advantage in some areas will be able to control a game!

"If Plandelli heard what you said, he would fight you hard!" Benitez said with a smile.

Yang Cheng was holding a bottle of water in his hand and drinking it. After hearing this, he nodded and finally swallowed a sip of water. "Let him do it, as long as I strangle it to death one after another, I will not be afraid of him!"

In front is Thomas Muller and Ozil's defense and freeze against Pirlo, and then in this area where Kyle is located. Balotelli and Casano are good at using the ball to pull out a central defender, and then Balotelli forms a one-on-one attack strategy. But now Yang Cheng uses the experienced Kyle to suppress this area, and put a Sven Bend in front, which has obvious effect.

After drinking the water, Yang Cheng watched the game and smiled confidently: "We have to score first in the first half to completely lay the advantage, and then slowly play with Plandelli!"

In such a knockout match that determines the outcome, the first goal will undoubtedly occupy more initiative. Especially in the current situation of the German team, if the goal is first, it will force Italy to push it out and play.

…………

Almost all those who follow German team games will have a good impression of Jerome Boateng's performance in this European Cup. That is, he almost represents the rapid growth and progress of the German team, and he seems to be a witness to this German team!

When talking about Jerome Boateng's progress, many people will say that he is excellent in defense, one-on-one stability and sophistication, but what Yang Cheng and the coaching staff are becoming more and more satisfied with him is not his point, but his increasingly outstanding sense of position and ability to respond without the ball.

Jerome Boateng has always been good at defense. Defense is a key skill for him, but in terms of off-ball and integration into the offensive system, this is the basis for him to truly stand firm in the main right-back of the German national team. Moreover, his ability is improving and growing in almost every game.

No team can ensure that every time you get the ball, you can pass it smoothly. Therefore, in the current football tactics, crossing across the country is a very important knowledge and homework. In the tactics of the German national team, crossing across the ball to the side is also of great importance. Ram is undoubtedly familiar with this.

But Jerome Boateng is still making rapid progress and adapting. Until the European Cup, whenever the team needs to pass the ball to the wing, Jerome Boateng can always appear in that position just right, and he can help the team re-adjust the offensive angle.

It's like this time, Sven Bend has no place to post the ball, Schweinsteiger and Tony Kloss are both restricted, and even Ram is restrained. If he can't be assigned to the right, he can only pass back, but pass back means reorganization, which means that Italy's defense will have a chance to reorganize.

But at this moment, Jerome Boateng raised his hand and ran forward, and the ball came to him just in time, and he rushed forward along the right after receiving the ball.

When the ball approached the right side, Ozil also moved over immediately, attracting Chiellini's attention, which immediately made Italy's entire defense tilt to the right side. After all, the German team is clearly trying to hit the right side. If their defense does not follow suit, it will easily be blown up by the German team.

But when Italy's overall defensive center of gravity tilted towards Chiellini's left side, Jerome Boateng noticed his left side, and Ram had already run to an area without defense. This was originally a control area of ​​Marchisio, but now it is tilted towards the right side, and Marchisio did not notice that Ram appeared in the large space on the left.

Jerom Boateng made a long pass with a diagonal pass, directly transferring the ball from the right to the left.

Where the arc ball passed, the Italian players looked up and then were surprised at the first time because they realized that no one was defending Ram on the left.

I saw Ram stop the ball in front of him with his chest, then accelerated and chased after him, and then made a strong trip. He quickly launched an attack from the left and soon arrived at the front of the Italian penalty area.

Thomas Muller quickly moved to the left, and Abbott always followed him, just like a dog skin plaster, but when Thomas Muller saw Ram rushing so fast, he immediately stopped and turned around and ran back along the front of the penalty area. This time Abbott did not follow Thomas Muller, but posted Ram.

Even Barzali, who was catching up behind him, was hurrying to pay attention to Ram who held the ball, and did not notice that Thomas Muller was not defending at the front of the penalty area, and all this happened in the blink of an eye, because after a sudden stop, Ram passed the ball back to Thomas Muller who was at the front of the penalty area.

After getting back knocked by Ram, Bayern's forward went into the penalty area. The direction he cut was right behind Abbott and Barzali, facing the goal directly, facing Buffon, and shot cleanly and flawlessly into the goal from Buffon's left.

"... Italy is dangerous... the goal is scored. The German team scored!!!"

Just as the commentator was neighing, Thomas Muller raised his arms and rushed out of the penalty area excitedly, rushed towards the fans on the sidelines, and then knelt on the turf of the Donetskton Bass Stadium at the corner flagpole, raising his head high, celebrating excitedly.

"In the 38th minute, the German team was formed by Ram and Thomas Muller on the left. Thomas Muller entered the penalty area and scored a goal that broke the deadlock on the court, helping the German team to take a 1:0 lead!"

"A very, very beautiful team goal. From Jerome Boateng's transfer from the right to Ram's fast advance on the left, the German team played very active on the wing, and the Italian side defense once again exposed a fatal mistake."

When the TV replays the slow motion of the entire goal just now, everyone can see that when Jerome Boateng moved to Ram on the left, no one participated in the defense in an area with a radius of about 10 meters centered on Ram. The nearest Marcisio is at least 10 meters away from Ram.

Such a large distance allowed Ram to dribble the ball calmly, advance calmly, and rush his own speed. Then, even when Thomas Muller came to the left to meet, Italy's defense failed to react and make quick adjustments at the first time, which directly led to Abate and Barzali overreacting and ignoring Thomas Muller's threat.

"It really shouldn't be. This is a loss caused by Italy's own mistake, and it really shouldn't be!" The live commentator was full of regret this time, because he could also see that after being scored by the German team, Italy had to fight against the water, and they even had no way out to choose.

"Of course, we can also say that this is the German team's long attack, and Italy's defense finally revealed a flaw, but what we should also see is that Plandelli's diamond position has had very serious problems from the beginning, especially the defense of the two sides, which are fatal."

"I still remember that when Yang Cheng was at Inter Milan, he also highly praised the midfield diamond position, but at that time, Inter Milan's midfield diamond obviously had a larger control range, the players ran more, and had stronger control. At that time, there were both players like Nedved who could attack and defend, as well as players with strong control capabilities such as Deco, Pirlo and Emerson. This allowed Inter Milan to firmly control the control and initiative of the game, which led to the glory of the Inter Milan era."

"But Italy's current control is obviously not as good as Inter Milan at that time. In order to make up for the lack of control, Plandelli compressed the diamond position to a narrower extent. But in this way, the offense is good. Whether it is Montolivo's high position cooperation in penetration at the front midfielder position, or Pirlo's dispatch and long pass transfer at the back midfielder position, the combination is very good, making Italy's offense very beautiful, very ornamental, and can be defended?"

"In this game, the German team keenly found Italy's problem. First, they took advantage of their number of advantages to limit Italy's midfield, especially Montolivo and Pirlo's performance. If they lost these two players, Italy's offensive threat was weakened by half, and then they used the wings to create offense and counterattack, thus disintegrating Italy's entire tactical system."

When the analysis came here, the on-site commentator gave Yang Cheng a sigh and sighed when the camera was just right to celebrate with Paul Bayer and Benitez.

"Many people say that Yang Cheng and Caesar belong to club events. Once they go to the national team competition, especially in this kind of competition-based competition, Yang Cheng will find it difficult to achieve. However, from the past few games, Yang Cheng's tactics are as unpredictable as ever, and his strategy is as terrifying as ever, which makes the opponent feel scared."

"At the beginning, we were all puzzled and strange about the starting lineup of the German team, but during the game, we were surprised to find that the arrangement of every player of the German team had his profound meaning in it."

"Italy has no way out now. Now the German team has begun to take advantage of the victory and Prandelli has begun to signal the team to keep a steady foothold, hoping to defend the score of 0:1 until the end of the first half. Perhaps he still has the next move to use it in the second half."

While the commentator was talking, Italy, which re-telephoned the ball, quickly threw the ball to the German team. The latter took advantage of the situation and launched a wave of attacks, completely suppressing Italy's attack, while Italy began to defend the goal in front of the goal, hoping to defend the score.

In such a game, falling behind by 1 goal is just a passive, but falling behind by 2 goals is almost a sign of despair!

Plandelli is not a fool, and there is still the second half. Now the team is playing in disarray. Naturally, he does not want to give the German team another chance at this time, so he first seeks to stabilize the situation and then find a way to adjust! (To be continued.
