"...Beautiful, Schweinsteiger intercepted the ball... There were three Spanish players around to counter-rob..."

"Oh no, the ball was cut off, Xavi Alonso cut off Schweinsteiger's ball...passed to David Silva... David Silva broke through to the penalty area, passed the ball...Mata shot..."

"Neul saved the ball steadily. Mata's shot was too pursuing the angle and failed to hit the force. Neuer, who was responding quickly, hurriedly saved the ball. This was the most threatening attack since the start of the second half of Spain. The German team lost the ball again in a short time after intercepting the ball, almost causing the goal to concede!"

When the live commentator talked about this scene, which happened in the 62nd minute, he seemed shocked. Just like all the fans in the stands of the stadium, they were excited by the fierce collision between each other and the fiercely.

However, after Mata's shot was saved by Neuer, Spanish fans obviously sighed, while German fans shouted Neuer's name excitedly. This German goalkeeper has been regarded by them as Germany's most promising super goalkeeper after Kahn.

This scene was also seen by Mourinho and Ferguson, who were sitting in the stands. Heathfield was sitting next to them. They were all sitting in the chairperson's stands, and they obviously received invitations from UEFA to watch the final.

"You guys say, is it that feeling good if you are defeated by yourself?" Mourinho asked with a smile and relaxed look.

This game has nothing to do with him, so he looks very good. As for what he said about Yang Cheng's jokes, everyone can hear it, because Boske's response is to some extent exactly what Yang Cheng did when coaching Real Madrid.

"Boske's response cannot be said to be a complete copy. There are almost no players in the German midfield who can really hold the ball. In terms of physical condition, Schweinsteiger is good. However, his skills in taking the ball are not detailed enough, and he is easily lost when he is pressed tightly. The midfield, especially the defensive midfielder, is very dangerous!"

"Tony Close's skills in getting the ball are not to be said. He was also the best candidate, and he had enough passing vision, but the problem is that his physical confrontation is too weak. Once he is closely guarded and impacted, he will lose the ball directly, which is also a big hidden danger. I have to say. Yang Cheng's team is really the best!"

Heathfield is quite familiar with the staffing of the German team. Once he analyzed it, he couldn't help laughing. Even he himself felt that Yang Cheng was definitely the biggest contributor to this German team who could play to this level and compete with this almost perfect Spain in the current situation.

Without Yang Cheng's words, this German team would not be able to qualify even in the Death Group!

"Don't worry, this kid should have a trump card!" Ferguson said with a smile, and it seemed that he was very confident in Yang Cheng.

When Mourinho heard this, he turned his head and looked at the old sir, "Do you have a trump card?"

"Not reaching the last step, no one knows how many good cards this kid is holding. And even if he really drags into overtime, the victory may not necessarily belong to Spain, and the German team has enough advantages to win!"

Mourinho curled his lips, "Why do I think he is planning to defend the penalty shootout?"

Hearing this, Ferguson was immediately happy. "Do you think he is you?"

Everyone laughed at the bickering between Ferguson and Mourinho, but they all knew in their hearts that the current situation facing the German team was actually the issue of the goal point.

Yang Cheng’s counterattack strategy has been formulated, that is, as long as I have a way to pass the ball behind your defense while my players face your defense line, I can create a threatening shot opportunity.

But now, the strong oppression and counterattack tactics of Espanyol have curbed the German team's counterattack routine.

As the party involved, Yang Cheng naturally couldn't see the problems that the old friends in the stands could see.

"I don't believe that the Spaniards can always maintain this high-intensity oppression!" Yang Cheng said.

If you want to maintain this high-intensity oppression, the Spaniards will face a huge problem in physical energy consumption. At least, they may not even know how long they can maintain such a tactic.

As Yang Cheng, who has been immersed in the head coaching field for more than ten years, he knows very clearly that the main reason why football games can remain interesting and fascinating despite obvious strengths and gaps, which makes the whole world crazy is that there are no offensive and defensive restrictions on the tactical level of football games.

In other words, if you attack countless times but fail to score a goal, as long as I attack once and score a goal, I will be able to defeat you. So, winning a football game is actually not anything else, but the question of how to score goals and preventing opponents from scoring goals.

…………

…………

As time goes by, Spain still maintains high-intensity attack and oppression against the German team, and also counterattack on the spot. They dare not relax at all, because the German team has been waiting patiently for the opportunity.

After entering the 70th minute, Yang Cheng took the lead in making the first substitution adjustment in the whole game. He replaced Ozil with Podolsky. The latter's physical fitness had obvious problems. Podolsky's speed and counterattack ability were excellent, and he could adapt to back and forth sprints and suppress Spain's left.

But Boske quickly responded, replacing Miguel Torres with Alba, who had mixed reputations and complaints, which was obviously a substitution against the German team, which immediately put the situation on the scene in a stalemate again.

"We can all see that Yang Cheng and Boske both restricted each other's tactics to the point of being tightly. Under the current circumstances, it is difficult for anyone to easily break the deadlock on the field, because they all know the other party's substitution and purpose, and are all carrying out targeted defenses."

"Boske's Spain met Yang Cheng's German team. This game also made us fully realize that Spain is not flawless. At least when the German team shrinks three lines to defend, Boske's team obviously lacks an effective fulcrum in the front."

"Maybe many people will find it strange, what is the function of the fulcrum?"

"I remember that in Yang Cheng's tactical book, he described the role of the frontcourt fulcrum as the top of an umbrella. Once the fulcrum forward to hold the opponent's defense, it seemed that the umbrella was opened. The teammates behind him immediately opened up along both sides of the fulcrum, forming an offensive echelon."

"At present, Spain has no striker tactics, Bosque also knows that his team lacks an effective tactical fulcrum. So when facing the German team's attack like a iron wall, they seem powerless, and now they are even afraid of the opponent's counterattack, which must have made Bosque feel helpless."

While the commentator was talking on the spot, the situation of the game remained stalemate, and no one could get a little advantage from the other party, and everyone was waiting for the other party to make a mistake on their own initiative.

But just as the time was about to enter 80 minutes, the fans and everyone in the stands suddenly saw that Barack left the table and went to the sidelines to warm up on the bench of the German team, which immediately caused an uproar in all the German fans in the stands.

"The German team is going to substitute!" The commentator on the scene also shouted in surprise, "We saw that Barack was warming up on the sidelines. Is Yang Cheng going to replace him? Or is this another smoke bomb for Yang Cheng? After all, Barack has only appeared on the bench once in this European Cup. In such an important final, let Barack play on the bench?"

This is not just the doubt of the on-site commentator. I believe it is also the doubt of everyone, that is, is it feasible to hand over the task of breaking the deadlock on the field to Barack?

…………

…………

Many people say that in the past decade, German football has been the era of Barack and Kahn, and since Kahn left the national team, German football has entered the era of Barack.

Barack has become a representative symbol of German football. He is like a flag of the German team and the spiritual core of the team. He can bring a sense of security to the players in the team and let them know that no matter what pressure they face, he will be in front of them to help them with it.

Don’t underestimate this effect. Because often you will know the value of this spiritual effect only when you lose it!

Every professional player's old age will definitely be accompanied by controversy. Kahn, Raul, and Ronaldo. Looking at the past professional football, there are only a few superstars who have left professional football with glory. There are probably only one Zidane, but Zidane's situation is a bit special.

The same is true for Barack's twilight years of his career. Both the club and the national team are not very popular with him, especially during the period of Loew, when he was slapped by his teammates on the court, which ruined the prestige of the German team captain, but what about it?

When Barack was slapped, Yang Cheng once said something to him, which caused great controversy at the time. He said: "Every player will leave the day. Barack will leave the national team sooner or later, and Lou will give up on him sooner or later. But the key to the problem is that the way you want him to leave makes him feel unacceptable and makes many people feel uncomfortable. This is the problem you have when dealing with things!"

"Now the whole of Germany is criticizing Barack and criticizing him, but I dare to stand up and say a word to my former students. No matter what you say, it cannot change a fact. German football owes Barack a decent farewell!"

So, after Yang Cheng replaced Lov to take over the German team, he directly found Barack and told him that he wanted to give him a decent farewell, and the most decent way to say goodbye is undoubtedly the championship trophy in a major competition!

Along the way, Yang Cheng worked hard. He led the team hard and fought one hard after another. The purpose was to support the champion placed in the middle of the player channel!

While warming up, Barak looked at the Delaunay Cup. It was beautiful and beautiful, which made him involuntarily want to reach out and touch it, but he finally held it back because Yang Cheng had previously warned the players that anyone who touched it before the game would cause the trophy to pass through the cracks of his fingers.

Back in the coaching area, Barack was immediately shouted in front of Yang Cheng.

When the two looked at each other, Barack was a little taller than Yang Cheng, but at first glance it was almost the same, so the two could almost be said to be looking straight.

"I think that trophy is so beautiful and tempting, right?" Yang Cheng asked with a faint smile.

Barack smiled slightly, nodded, and said nothing, but the meaning was already obvious.

"I don't want to drag this game into overtime. I hope to end the battle within 90 minutes!" Yang Cheng concisely expressed his thoughts and intentions.

When entering overtime, the players' physical fitness has almost been overdrawn. At this time, the German team's advantage will be weakened and the risk is too great. Moreover, once entering overtime, the uncontrollable factors will increase. Yang Cheng does not like such a game. He likes to end the battle within 90 minutes.

"I need you to go up now, add a midfielder without the ball, and use your unball running ability to activate the midfield!"

"Hold the ball. Pass it to your teammates, or look for Badstuber and Hummels, and let them pass it for Thomas Muller and Podolsky on both sides. Since Spain wants to widen the tactical width, let's use this to beat him!"

Boske replaced Miguel Torres, which basically means rejecting the left-wing fullback and preparing to adopt a more stable tactic, so that the defense line will no longer take risks. While pulling out the width, the frontcourt offensive players cooperate and penetrate in an orderly manner to see if they can directly penetrate the German team's defense.

Barack's health is not as good as he used to be. His skills have not improved more. At least his skills are not very detailed in the German team today, but he has an advantage that other players do not have, that is, his ability to run without the ball as he accumulates experience.

As early as Chemnitz, Yang Cheng had already started training Barack for running without balls, not only allowing him to run within the triangle range, but also began to consciously train him to become the fourth response point. Yang Cheng's move later directly made Barack an all-round midfielder who was very comprehensive and outstanding in consciousness and unball running.

It can even be said that Barack is the best one to use the offense and defense system of offense. At his peak, he was definitely a top superstar figure. What he lacked is a championship trophy that represents his individual.

Although, as he grows older, Barack's condition and physical fitness are far inferior to his peak, he is also very threatened at certain specific times.

There are only about 10 minutes left before the end of the second half. Yang Cheng must make the final substitution adjustment!

Ballack replaced the main midfielder, Tony Close!

…………

…………

Barack's appearance is indeed surprising, because the veteran is about to be 36 years old and has not played in the European Cup several times. Why did Yang Cheng replace him?

However, after playing, Barack quickly showed his threat.

The body and technology of each player's career are developed in a parabolic way, only consciousness is slashed upward. When these three lines meet together at a point, this point is the peak period of the player. After that, the body and technology will decline, but consciousness continues to improve.

The same is true for Barack. He gained a foothold at Chelsea in the later stages. One important reason is that his reading game ability is high. When Lampard occupied the attacker position in the frontcourt, he could only retreat, but his sense of position, defensive horizontal interception and other abilities are excellent. All of this depends on his outstanding unball running.

However, the live TV cameras are always aimed at the ball holder. For non-ball runners like Barack, they don’t pay much attention, or they don’t pay attention.

But Barack also has his flaws, that is, his lack of rhythm control and insufficient technical delicacy, so Yang Cheng asked him and Schweinsteiger and Sven Bend to form a three-midfielder, in order to make full use of Barack's ability to run without the ball, use him to intercept and harass opponents' players, and protect the area at the front of the penalty area.

Not long after Barack came on the court, he completed an interception in the backcourt and directly launched a long pass, but Thomas Muller on the left failed to control the ball under Aveloa's defense, resulting in the ball being cleared by Aveloa. However, Barack's long pass still won the cheers of many fans.

Barack's appearance brought not only tactical changes, but also spiritual levels. After seeing Thomas Mueller fail to control the ball and missed a chance to counterattack, he gave the young player a thumbs up and began to direct his teammates to prepare for the next defense.

It's strange that when some people stand there, you can easily feel a kind of spiritual power, as if he is there, you just need to listen to him, which makes the German players feel a kind of trust and dependence.

Barack did not disappoint everyone's expectations and showed up after he came on the court. He soon was in the backcourt again. While Mata was retreating to get the ball, he pressed the opponent with his body and stole the ball in advance, allowing Schweiingsteig, who was chasing back, to get the ball possession opportunity.

Like every time the German team took the ball in the past, Spain immediately stepped forward and put pressure on it, especially the players in the midfield and frontcourt, who were on the spot to counterattack. Schweinsteiger was chasing back and getting the ball, with his back facing the goal, and Spanish players were double-teaming around him, so he did not choose to force it, but passed the ball into his own penalty area according to the arrangement of the head coach before the game.

Long after Barack intercepted the ball, Badstuber had retreated and pulled a little distance from the defensive player in front. When Schweinsteiger passed the ball back before double-teaming, Badstuber steadily stopped the ball in the penalty area. When he looked forward, all the situation was immediately in his mind.

Then he saw him pull out his left leg, buckle over Iniesta, and rub his left foot into a long distance pass.

This long pass arc is beautiful and has a great landing point!!!
