When everyone was looking forward to the halftime break, both coaches were able to make some adjustments to the team's lineup and tactics to make this game more beautiful, unexpectedly, neither Yang Cheng nor Boske followed their wishes, and no one moved during the halftime break.

The situation at the beginning of the second half was exactly the same as in the first half. Both sides still played targeted tactics, and both regarded the opponent's midfield as the focus of their own disruption. They tried every means to disrupt the opponent's offense and organization, so that the opponent could not threaten his goal and create an effective threat.

Maybe fans will find such a game boring, but just think about it. After working hard every four years, I finally reached the semi-finals. Who is willing to take the risk by taking the hard work of the whole team or even the whole country? Who is willing to take the initiative to make some changes and thus bear greater risks?

Why did Yang Cheng say that Pedro is Boske's biggest trick in this game?

Because Bosque only has two powerful weapons, one is Pedro and the other is Navas, both of which are on the sidelines.

According to the normal head coach's point of view, Pedro had to be on the bench in the second half to be the best result, because the opponent's physical energy was almost exhausted at that time, while Pedro was a fierce and powerful person. At that time, the game was the most effective, but Boske did not. Is he stupid?

No, but because he knew that if he didn't go to Pedro, he could not effectively restrain the right half of the German team's midfield, then Jerome Boateng would likely change the situation, because the latter's cross made more than once, and with a tall and powerful Gomez in the penalty area, Bosque had to pay attention to such hidden dangers.

Of course, when Pedro starts, there are fewer powerful tools to change the situation, which is also a matter of choice.

Well, when the starter was launched, both sides conducted very meticulous research on each other and put in a lot of effort to prepare for the war. Now who is willing to change all this rashly? Because the risks brought by change have both pros and cons, who dares to say that it must be beneficial to themselves?

Such a game is actually destined to not be good from the beginning, because now, the purpose of both sides is definitely not to score goals first, but to arrange tactics based on how to avoid the opponent's goal, and then organize and attack based on this.

In other words, whether it is Germany or Spain, the most important thing is to avoid losing the ball first, and you can even give up the offense for this purpose, because this is a knockout match. No one is willing to take the initiative to come forward and serve as a target for the opponent!

Because of this, it is highly targeted, so neither of the tactics of each other cannot be fought and is completely disrupted.

The one presented on the court is as the live commentator said. These two most powerful teams in the world that are rarely seen are actually playing so unstructured, and they can even be said to be completely messed up. These are the results left by each other's tactical destruction. Moreover, neither side is willing to break this situation.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that you can always laugh to the end if you maintain this situation, because football games are never just a tactical competition and confrontation. They also involve players.

As long as people are involved, they must be full of randomness.

…………

…………

Time passed by bit by bit, Yang Cheng was always on the sidelines, watching the game silently, frowning like a mountain.

He did not make substitutions, but was just making adjustments, but Spain was also constantly adjusting. In the fight between each other, no one could gain much advantage, because the biggest stalemate between the two sides was in the midfield. As long as the knot in the midfield could not be opened, no one could open the situation.

"This kind of game consumes a lot of physical energy!" Benitez also frowned and said without thinking.

Yang Cheng nodded and sighed. This statement seemed to be as follows, but Benitez meant to remind him that such a game would consume a lot of physical energy. In the past, if the German team could last for 80 minutes, it would not be possible to reach this period now because the physical energy consumption was too high.

"The striker is a problem!" Yang Cheng shook his head and sighed.

It’s not that Gomez is not working hard enough or that he is too poor, but that he is indeed unsatisfactory.

Yang Cheng asked him to stare at Ramos and Pique. He worked hard to complete this task, but for a long time, when the team needed him to defend against Busquets who were withdrawing and controlling the ball, he did not have enough awareness to do this.

Yes, he was worried, because Yang Cheng's mission was to let him look at the opponent's two central defenders. He was worried that going to go with Busquets would lead to a mistake in his duties, but he did not see that if he followed Busquets in time, he would have captured the angle of the attack and Busquets could not pass the ball to Ramos and Pique, then these two central defenders would not be threatening.

But Yang Cheng couldn't tell him to let him do this, because the timing on the field changed rapidly, and he could only do it if he understood. Gomez didn't understand, and if you insisted on him doing it, it would only make him at a loss in the end.

"Sometimes, I really want to knock on his elm head and tell him what it means to surrounded Wei and save Zhao!" Yang Cheng smiled bitterly. At this point, Kloze completed better. This guy's consciousness in this regard was absolutely almost demonic.

"Tim!" Yang Cheng thought of this, turned his head and shouted at Tim Hank who was looking at the tablet in the coaching seat behind him.

The latter quickly walked out and came to Yang Cheng's side, put the tablet in his hand in his hand. "Preliminary estimates are that they should be able to last until after 70 minutes, so there can be no more!"

This means that the German team's own physical fitness will be challenged after entering 70 minutes.

"Where is Spain?" Yang Cheng asked again.

"The situation is probably similar to ours. Although they are in control of the ball and their physical fitness is not as good as ours, they are under a lot of pressure and pressure, and the players run a lot. In addition, their physical fitness is originally relatively disadvantageous, so they are probably similar to ours."

Yang Cheng nodded. Such a high-intensity game is a serious challenge to both sides' physical fitness. No team can keep playing a fierce and intense confrontation of 90 minutes. That's Superman, not a player.

In other words, they must break the deadlock as soon as possible before their physical energy enters the vacuum period.

Yang Cheng believed that Boske was also thinking about the same thing, because he turned his head and looked at it. Boske was also discussing something with Tony Grand there. If nothing unexpected happens, he would definitely be studying the physical fitness of both sides.

Everyone knows that if you continue to fight like this, in the end, both sides will consume their physical energy, but everyone knows in their hearts that which one enters the physical energy vacuum first, the one who enters late may use the time difference to break the deadlock and reverse the situation.

After looking at the time, the second half had been going on for 8 minutes, Yang Cheng looked at Paul Bayer again. "Paul, go and ask Milo, how long will it take to go? I want him to be warm as soon as possible and play in the shortest time!"

After hearing this, Paul Bayer immediately walked to the front of the bench and approached Klose, "Go to warm up immediately. Come on the court in the shortest time, hurry up!!!"

Klose stood up and approached Paul Bayer. "I just went to warm up, and I don't need it now!"

When Paul Baier heard this, he immediately laughed. The old guy was indeed a monster. He patted his shoulder and immediately walked towards Yang Cheng.

When Yang Cheng saw Klose, he waved his hand and called him over, "Did you notice Busquets below just now?"

"Well, pay attention. Boss!" Klose nodded, "He often retreated to the defense line!"

"Very good!" Yang Cheng praised. It doesn't need to worry about talking to smart people. "He retreated to the defense line. Although it was conducive to ball control, it exposed the area in front of the defense line. This is our opportunity. If someone can be with Ozil at this time, he will make a roundabout way..." Yang Cheng made a surround gesture with both hands.

Klose doesn't need Yang Cheng to say much. He has been playing under Yang Cheng's command for so many years and knows what Yang Cheng means better than anyone else. If he hits Busquets at this time and successfully grabs the ball, it will be beneficial for the German team to directly attack the front area of ​​Spain's defense line. Here, whether it is a straight pass behind or a long shot, it can exert a huge threat.

"I know how to do it, boss!" Klose nodded.

"It's good to be able to score goals, but if you can't, you can at least kill Busquets for me!" Yang Cheng patted Klose's shoulder.

This task does not rely on shooting skills, nor does it require a good state. As long as Klose has that consciousness and as long as he has enough running ability, he can complete this step.

"You watch here!" Klose walked to the sidelines with a smile!

…………

…………

"The German team took the lead in making substitutions. It seems that it is about to replace Klose!" The commentator on the scene saw Klose walking forward and immediately exclaimed. This was Yang Cheng's two consecutive games arranged for Klose to play on the bench.

Taking advantage of a dead ball, the German team took the lead in making a substitution and replaced the starting striker Gomez with Klose.

But unlike the last game, Gomez scored twice in the last game against Argentina and walked off the court with a hero's crown, but this time he was depressed because he did not make much contribution.

Yang Cheng comforted Gomez specifically, then pointed out his problem and signaled that he could stay on the sidelines.

Boske, who was standing beside him, looked at the time, "Is this guy really unable to help it?"

Normally, if the physical fitness reaches 70 minutes, the 60-minute substitution will change the situation and stimulate the players' physical fitness again. This is what many head coaches will do, and it is the most natural. However, Yang Cheng has not done this now, but instead, he replaced the players in advance, and even advanced nearly 10 minutes in one breath.

"I guess he thinks the same as you!" Tony Grand smiled.

Boske was also planning to substitution 5 minutes in advance, replacing David Silva with Navas to strengthen the impact and advancement of the right. His idea was the same as Yang Cheng, who wanted to take the opportunity to substitute early to turn the situation around. Unexpectedly, this guy was one step ahead of him, which also made Boske and Tony Grand laugh.

Now they think that they should take a good look at whether there will be any changes to the situation after Klose comes on the court!

But as the game started again, they did not find any difference between Klose and Gomez, because although Busquets often retreated to control the ball, they did not retreat every time the ball was controlled. And even if he retreated, Klose would not seize the opportunity every time he retreated.

This kind of thing focuses on hitting with one blow, and timing and efficiency!

Seeing that there seemed to be no problem, Boske replaced David Silva with Navas in the 60th minute.

…………

…………

Yang Cheng looked at Boske's substitution, but he was thinking about the situation after the substitution.

He could expect that after Navas went up, Spain's two sides would play more vigorously, with Pedro on the left and Navas on the right, both of which must be to solve the problem of strategic width and widen the German team's defense line.

Thinking of this, Yang Cheng immediately issued an adjustment order to the court, and the oppression of de la Reed and Iniesta continued, but relaxed in Iniesta appropriately, but Sven Bend must firmly occupy the front of the penalty area of ​​his side. Protect the defense line and the ribs, and at the same time let Thomas Muller look at Aveloa.

Soon Yang Cheng made another request to Schweiingsteiger and slowed down the pace appropriately!

This is not to create the illusion of physical fitness, but to allow Spain to see the opportunity to advance, and to force Navas to retreat on the side to get the ball!

A purely speed-type wing assaulter like Navas has an important feature, that is, when you pass the ball to him, you must pass the ball to them when he approaches the opponent's fullback. In this way, they can accelerate and catch up directly, and at the same time, the speed does not need to be slow, and directly dribble the ball at the fastest speed on the wing. Their advantages are fully utilized.

But once such a player passes the ball to their feet or forces them to retreat to get the ball, their threat will be reduced by at least 80%, because what can a wing assaulter who cannot sprint?

If there is Xavi, Alonso or Xavi, Yang Cheng may not dare to do this, because both players have excellent long pass abilities, which allows them to have enough means and abilities anytime and anywhere to transfer the ball to Navas, and thus allow the wing assaulter to exert the greatest threat.

But now there are no two long passers. Even if they change to Navas, as long as the balls given to other Spanish players are forced to be under his feet or ask him to retreat, Yang Cheng's goal of limiting Navas will be achieved.

Moreover, the rhythm slowed down and catered to Busquets' taste, and this ball handler liked this rhythm.

…………

…………

It must be admitted that Klose is indeed more suitable for the current German tactics than Gomez.

Ozil discovered that when Klose was not available, his team's offensive advancement encountered great trouble, and both him and Thomas Mueller encountered great problems.

For him, if it were Gomez, he would be more likely to be pinned by the opponent's central defender than Klose, and he lacked the most suitable opportunity to come back to support him, so Ozil often faces the opportunity to not have much space to pass better passes, while Thomas Muller is facing the double-team of an opponent's full-back and a central defender anytime and anywhere.

If you encounter teams with relatively loose formations, this situation rarely occurs, but once you encounter teams with high intensity oppression like Spain, the problems of the German team will be exposed.

So in the first half they always struggled to pass the ball to the threatening area, and this is the reason.

The combination of the Iron Triangle, Klose, Thomas Muller and Ozil, is a headache if you lack two at the same time. If you lack two at the same time, you're sorry, the overall offensive strength of the German team will definitely decline a lot.

Klose brought Yang Cheng's latest substitute to the bench, and Ozil also got some new things, so every time when Busquets retreated to the central defender to get the ball, Ozil would naturally press on it, occupying the area that originally belonged to Busquets, waiting for the opportunity, but if Busquets gets the ball, he would retreat.

The back midfielder is the most critical area for vertical offensive advancement among all tactics!

This time, when Busquets was harassed by Ozil and returned to Ramos and Pique again, Ozil once again stood in the Spanish midfielder area. Klose, who was supposed to be pushing towards the central defender, remained silent and waited for an opportunity to ambush around and wait for the opportunity.

Alba was entangled by Podolsky and passed the ball to Pique. The latter was threatened by Klose and immediately passed it to Busquets. This immediately made Klose, who had originally forced Pique, turn to Busquets at the first time.

Ozil and Klose had a very tacit understanding. He knew what the German striker was going to do when Klose forced Pique to Pique, and immediately approached Busquets because he knew that the angle from Klose to Pique was to force Pique to pass the ball to Ramos, either to pass it back to Alba or to Busquets.

According to convention, it must be Busquets.

When Busquets got the ball, Ozil wrapped around him. The latter wanted to protect the ball, but at this time, Klose forced him up from behind and joined forces with Ozil to attack one by one.

"The German team successfully intercepted the ball, beautiful, Klose made a beautiful steal!!!"

This sudden change surprised everyone, because Klose suddenly changed direction, and coupled with being harassed by Ozil before, Busquets' attention was on Ozil, and he ignored Klose, which led to being cut off by the German striker and stabbed the ball directly to Ozil.

As early as when Klose suddenly turned, Ramos and Pique realized something was wrong and were about to come to pick it up. When they saw the ball was intercepted, they were both shocked because they knew better than anyone else how big the threat was to concede the ball in the area near the defense line.

The first person to react was Ramos. He saw him reacting suddenly and shouted, "Beware of Mueller!"

Ozil didn't wait for the ball to stay at his feet for a while. Klose poked the ball directly in front of him. He rubbed his left foot and rubbed a half-high ball directly, passing through the middle of Busquets, Ramos and others. It was difficult to intercept it unless someone wanted to use his hands, but it was in the penalty area, and it was deliberate handball in the penalty area, which was a penalty!

If you don’t have a handball, you can only watch the ball fly by next to them and land on the left side of the penalty spot.
Chapter completed!
