Chapter 122 Drag into our rhythm

In the following period of the first half, Hoffenheim did not organize any effective offensives, and the players seemed a little impatient. They seized every opportunity to roar at the referee, protesting his previous misjudgment.

Although the referee did make a mistake, it is obviously not a wise approach if this misjudgment affects the entire game.

Until the end of the first half, the scores were 0:1, and Bayern Munich, who played away, led the way. Although Hoffenheim seemed to have a strong offensive, there was nothing that could make Rensing's shot that was a knelt.

When he returned to the locker room, Rangnick criticized everyone with a humble face.

"When we were behind them last season, we could turn the defeat into victory. Why didn't this season do it? When we were led by Bayern Munich last season, I could see the fighting spirit and belief in you, so I feel relieved. But today I was very worried on the sidelines. I was worried that you would lose the ball again! Can anyone tell me what happened to you? Because I won a league championship, do you all think the game should be as you think?"

Rangnick looked at the player with a serious expression. Although he didn't roar loudly, and like Ferguson, he didn't spit a slut, everyone felt the pressure. Some coaches didn't need to swear and raise the volume to make people feel stressed.

"Yes, the referee blows our goal, which is an obvious misjudgment! But this is not a question you should consider. You should think so - he blows our goal, so we will score another goal! This is the attitude you should have in the game, instead of focusing on chatting with the referee!"

"I won't re-arrange you any tactics, my tactics are fine. Do you remember what I said to you before taking a vacation? 'Forget the honor of the championship and start over' Now you have forgotten this sentence, right? Then I will say it again, starting today, completely forget that you were the league champions last season. Starting from scratch. Honors only belong to the past, and after the holidays, there is no meaning. In the Bundesliga, there are many examples of winning a league championship but sinking. Think about Kaiser Slau

Teng, what happened after creating the miracle of the new team? I am very glad that our first game was against an opponent like Bayern, not a new team, because this allowed me to discover the problem earlier - there was no problem exposed in the warm-up match. I know you wanted to beat Bayern Munich before the game, but what should I use to prove your determination? Are you quarreling with the referee on the court? Adjust your mindset! We are not defending champions, we are still champion challengers!”

When Rangnick was teaching his players a lesson, Van Gaal was praising his players. Van Gaal is not the kind of coach who is happy, but he is still very happy to be able to lead Hoffenheim in this first game. His purpose of accepting Bayern Munich is not to regain his strength in the domestic league. For Van Gaal, the Bundesliga is simply the back garden of Bayern Munich. He can do whatever he wants. Even if he doesn't play well at the beginning, Bayern Munich only needs to be a little later.

With a slight effort, you can win the league championship. Such a league is too boring. His purpose in coming to Bayern is to re-establish Bayern Munich's reputation in the European arena. As a representative of German football, Bayern Munich has never done anything in the Champions League since winning the UEFA Champions League in 2001. Their sluggishness in the Champions League is also seen as the sluggishness of German football, which shows the significance of Bayern Munich to German football.

After taking office, Van Gaal once said in the team that Bayern Munich just took a nap last season. As long as they don't take a nap this season, the league championship will still be theirs.

In order to prove his own statement, the best evidence is to defeat the league champion in last season in this game.

※※※ Neither head coaches made any adjustments to the tactics in the second half, nor did they substitute them. In their opinion, the tactics were not problematic, and the players' performance was determined by the result of the game. Van Gaal believes that there is no problem with the performance of his players. Although Bayern Munich was a bit messy by Hoffenheim's attack after the opening, fortunately, he quickly stabilized his position - in fact, he would have to thank the referee Rafati. If it weren't for that misjudgment, it would be hard to say what the situation would have turned into.

The only requirement for players is to strive to seize the initiative as soon as possible after the second half begins. As long as you take the initiative in the game in your own hands, with Bayern Munich's background and strength, the game will develop in a direction that is beneficial to them.

Rangnick's requirements for the players are exactly the same, and he also wants the players to bring the game to their familiar rhythm as soon as possible after the game begins.

The rhythm of the football game is a very important thing. If the rhythm is not right, you will not be able to get into the state. You may be sleepwalking throughout the game.

It is obviously Chu Zhongtian’s job to control the rhythm.

Rangnick just told the team that they needed to enter the rhythm they were familiar with as soon as possible. As for how to enter, it was Chu Zhongtian's own business, and Rangnick didn't interfere much.

What is the familiar rhythm of Hoffenheim? Of course it is fast, just like a gust of wind, coming fiercely and quickly.

Bayern Munich is a veteran family and is used to the steady pace.

If you want to catch them off guard, it will be fast.

How should we be fast? As a winger, fast means to lead the ball to the extreme speed and break through the bottom. This is fast. But as an organizational midfielder, fast pace is definitely not to rush forward with the ball. The organizational core speed is to drive the whole team to follow.

Use direct transmission more often, use less, or try not to return or cross transmissions.

But a direct pass is a very dangerous double-edged sword. Maybe he will hand over the ball to the opponent. He is just about to accelerate and suddenly faces a sudden brake. Therefore, such "fast" is very difficult for players who control the rhythm.

A more clever "fast" is to not only lead your team to fast, but also lead your opponent to fast. If the opponent is not adapted to his own rhythm, there will inevitably be many mistakes. Although there will be mistakes here, the team that is more adapted to this rhythm can best gain benefits from such mistakes.

Chu Zhongtian decided to let Bayern dance with Hoffenheim's rhythm.

In this fast-paced dance, Bayern Munich's dance steps will stagger and stagger.

So shortly after the game started, after he got possession, he did not wait for his teammates to insert or observe around, and he pushed the ball straight ahead without hesitation. This seemed a bit reckless because the teammates in front did not have a good chance.

"Chu Zhongtian pushed straight...but seemed to be too anxious..."

Before he finished speaking, the football was snatched by Bayern Munich's central defender Van Biten, and Ibisevic, who was inserted diagonally behind him, made a pass.

Sana screamed from behind, complaining that Chu Zhongtian gave up the ball so easily.

Chu Zhongtian glanced at the front, then turned around and shouted at him: "Just grab the ball back!"

After shouting, he rushed forward and headed straight for Van Bomel. Sana then muttered and found Schweinsteiger beside him. They all knew that these two key players in Bayern Munich midfield were.

While rushing towards Van Bomer, Chu Zhongtian shouted at Ibisevic and others: "Press!Press!"

How can we make Bayern Munich come up with them? How can we make Bayern Munich make too many mistakes? That is to create tension for them, make mistakes through pressing, grab the ball and then make a quick counterattack, so that they have no time to think and control the rhythm, and then they will be gradually dragged into the rhythm that Hoffenheim is used to.

Ibisevic first understood Chu Zhongtian's intention. When he saw that he had not got the ball, he did not stand there and hug his head and complained that Chu Zhongtian did not pass the ball well, but turned around and rushed towards Van Biten.

Van Biten did not expect Ibissevic to be so active and quick in robbery. He was stunned and the opponent had already been behind him. As a central defender, everyone knew what the consequences would be if the opponent's forward was entangled in this position. Van Biten did not dare to delay any more. Although he had not observed the situation before, he could only pass the football first.

So he rushed the football and gave it to Van Bommel in front.

Just as Van Bomel received the ball, Chu Zhongtian also got a flying tackle. In fact, this was not to kick off one of the Dutch legs. All he had to do was to create tension for Van Bomel, making Van Bomel think Chu Zhongtian would kick him, so he could only get the ball in a hurry.

Van Bitten made a hasty shot, Van Bermel also made a hasty shot, and then maybe Schweinsteiger, or Baum John, anyway, everyone else made a hasty shot, so Bayern Munich’s rhythm was messed up. There are many reasons for hasty shots. On the one hand, Hoffenheim’s tight defense put too much pressure on them. On the other hand, after the previous person made a hasty shot, the passing was too hasty, and it was not possible in terms of accuracy and strength, which made it uncomfortable for teammates to pick up. If they couldn’t stop the ball well, they would have to

Spend more time to adjust, so when Hoffenheim players force them up, time no longer allows them to adjust, so naturally they can only continue to pass it hastily... In fact, there has not been so many "hurried shots" links, Bayern Munich's counterattack this time ended with Van Bomel, because Chu Zhongtian's terrifying flying tackle, Van Bomel missed the football pass. He wanted to pass it to Schweinsteiger in front, but Sana, who had already been stuck, intercepted it.

When Chu Zhongtian was still lying on the ground, he turned around and looked at the football. After seeing Sana intercept the ball, he immediately got up from the ground.

As soon as Sana looked up, he saw Chu Zhongtian's figure, so he quickly passed the football over.

Without pressing, even if the ball passes quickly, there will be no big mistakes, so the ball was accurately sent to Chu Zhongtian's feet.

The whole process was no more than one minute. Chu Zhongtian lost the ball a few dozen seconds ago, and the football returned to his feet after a few dozen seconds. It seemed that these dozens of seconds had not existed, and everything returned to the starting point... No, it is different now from the one before. Because the opponent was in a "defense to offense" situation within those few dozen seconds just now, so there are some loopholes in their defense line. Perhaps it is difficult for ordinary people to discover these loopholes, but in Chu Zhongtian's brain, these loopholes are many and clear.

Ibissevic just grabbed Van Biten and walked back again, not offside, and Obasi was not offside. This is the opportunity!

Chu Zhongtian shook his feet and passed it straight again!

The football rolled forward quickly against the turf. This time, Chu Zhongtian did not directly pass to Obasi or Ibisevic, but to Van Biten and Badstube!

He knew that these two people had never partnered before, because it was Bad Stubbe's first time playing in the Bundesliga. As a central defender partner, it is fatal to not have enough tacit understanding. What Chu Zhongtian caught was that the two of them did not have enough tacit understanding.

Sure enough, when the football passed through the area between the two, Van Biten thought Badstube was going to make up for defense, so he went to guard Ibissevic, while Badstube thought Van Biten was coming to intercept the ball, so he turned around and planned to follow Obasi. As a result, no one went to stop him, so he let the football pass through between them.

Ibisevic inserted diagonally the moment Chu Zhongtian passed the ball. When the football came from between Van Biten and Badstube, he happened to receive it. When Van Biten turned to find Ibisevic, he found that Ibisevic was no longer in the position he had seen before, but was inserted behind him.

Badstube raised his hand to signal the lineman and referee, Hoffenheim's Ibisevic offside.

Based on his own experience, Van Biten believed that the ball should not be offside, so he directly shoveled towards Ibiseyvic. He judged that Ibiseyvic would definitely shoot directly - any forward who controls the football when facing the goalkeeper directly will choose to shoot, rather than anything else... So he shoveled towards Ibiseyvic's forward, raised his legs high, hoping to block Ibiseyvic's shot.

At the same time, Bayern got goalkeeper Rensin abandoned the goal and prepared to block Ibisevic's shot.

Unexpectedly, Ibisevic did not shoot directly, but made a pass directly!

He passed the football to the other end of the penalty area, and the football almost rolled over to the toes of Van Biten who rushed back. If it was a little later, it would be destroyed by Van Biten. Of course, it might also cause Van Biten to score an own goal.

Obasi was completely unguarded. When he was also in front of Ibisek, he pulled a little to the outside, just avoiding Badstube's defense. Then, when Badstube saw that the situation was not good, he ran to the middle to make up for defense, and there was no one on his side.

When he turned his head, he saw Bayern Munich's goal. The huge goal was empty. Its guarded Rensin had rushed to the edge of the small penalty area, at Ibicevic's side.

What Obasi had to do was very simple - he adjusted his posture, then raised his left foot and beat his left foot outward. When the football rolled over, he gently exerted force inward. The football changed direction and rolled towards the goal!

All Rensing can do now is turn his head and watch Obasi complete the entire process in less than a second. As for the other Bayern players, they are all powerless.

Football flew into Bayern Munich's goal under everyone's gaze.

Rhine Neka Stadium burst into cheers when Chu Zhongtian made his second straight pass, and the sound reached its peak the moment Austria scored the ball into the goal.

"Hoffen!Hoffen!Hoffenheim!"

"The ball went in-! They equalized the score!!"

"Ibisevic's pass is really timely and selfless! And Obasi's shot is also very decisive!"

"Obasi scored their first league goal for Hoffenheim in the new season, which came from Ibisevic's assist!"

Everyone was applauding these two people.

Perhaps until now everyone thinks that Chu Zhongtian's first direct pass was a mistake, but in fact, every time it is in his calculations.

The real hero of this goal was him.

However, he had no intention of taking credit for himself. After seeing the goal, he opened his arms and rushed towards Obasi and Ibisevic.

Of course, Rangnick knew that Chu Zhongtian was the biggest contributor, so he stood up and applauded Chu Zhongtian. From Van Biden's intercepted the ball, Bayern Munich actually fell into the rhythm of Hoffenheim.

"Hoffenheim returned to normal in the second half. From this series of attacks, it can be seen that they are very purposeful and no longer play randomly in the first half." It can be seen by someone. "Chu played his core role!"

The singing of Hoffenheim fans sounded again. After the last season, everyone was familiar with this song. As long as you hear this sound, it means that Hoffenheim is coming!

Van Gaal was a little angry at the conceding goal. The team lost the ball after only three minutes of the second half. His arrangement of halftime was useless.

He didn't expect Hoffenheim to get in the second half so quickly, and they seemed to have changed their playing style...※※※At Abel's home, after seeing Obasi kick the football into the goal, Abel suddenly raised his hands and jumped out of his seat.

"Oh-!" he cheered.

Daniel glared at Abel, he did not wave his fist because he knew who was "home" here. He just grabbed his hair that was not much in anger.

The TV broadcast happened to give Bayern a close-up, just like Daniel.

Looking at the cheering Abel beside him, Daniel could only lower his head and scold Bayern in his heart. How could he let his opponent score a goal so quickly?

"This game is difficult for Bayern Munich!" The commentator's voice was still making things difficult for Daniel. "Hoffenheim won one win and one draw last season when he was a new player. It seems that Hoffenheim had a psychological advantage when he played Bayern Munich..."

Abel also heard what the interviewer was saying. He remembered that he could watch the game with Daniel now, and dared to cheer so freely in front of him. He really couldn't do it a year ago... It seems that he also had a psychological advantage when facing Daniel?
