Chapter 172 German Tanks VS Steel Lines of Defense!
"Pellet and Eder, this should be the striker combination sent by the Italians."
Before the start of the friendly match against Italy, on the afternoon of the game, Loew continued to instill his tactical arrangements to the German players in the locker room.
Loew posted the No. [-] represented by Pellet on the tactical board, placing him alongside another striker, Eder.
"Conte's tactical formation has not changed much throughout the European Cup qualifiers, and it has always been a variant of the back three.
In tonight's game, I believe he will still play [-]. This is also the most suitable formation for Italy. They have the three central defenders who cooperate best in the world, which is a rare asset in the national team. "
"Goalkeeper: Buffon.
Defense: Chiellini, Bonucci, Barzagli.
Midfielders: De Sciglio, Giacherini, Sturaro, Parolo, Florenci.
Forwards: Eder and Pellet.
According to the starting list submitted by Conte this morning, their starting lineup should be as expected.
In addition to De Rossi and Thiago Motta, the two veteran midfielders, the Italians played their strongest lineup.
However, De Rossi's retirement due to injury is not good news for us. Italy, with De Rossi behind, will be stronger in my opinion.
In addition to these players, there are also some players on their bench to pay attention to. Candreva, who played well in Lazio, Shalawi, who moved from Monaco to Rome in the middle of the season, and Insigne from Naples.
To be honest, I think Insigne is more worthy of the starting position than Eder, but in the hands of Conte, he seems to prefer to use him as a substitute. "
"Italy's offensive methods are mainly long-range shots from the midfielder. As a center, Pellet is more of a fulcrum. Of course, his header and shooting ability are not bad.
However, compared to our strikers, their strikers are not very lethal, and we need to pay more attention to their ability to score goals on set kicks.
You need to pay attention to one thing. In the recent European Cup qualifiers, the most common method for the Italian team to score goals is to use the opportunity of set kicks and corner kicks to score goals with headers from central defenders and forwards!
Therefore, the defense of the defense against set kicks is our top priority in today's game.
In the situation on the side, we must be the main attacker and the Italians are the main defender. If they want to get more offensive opportunities, they must seize the loopholes left by our offense.
In other words, we must pay attention to the rhythm of offensive and defensive transitions, and we must also pay attention to the control of the ball while attacking.
After losing the ball in the offense, it is necessary to counter-grab immediately to slow down the opponent's counterattack and not give the Italians a chance to get close to our defensive core area.
Minimize their chances of getting free kicks and corners and get past their defense as quickly as possible without conceding a goal.
Facing the steel defense of the Italians, I need everyone on the offensive line to show their best form, as a member of the German tank, crush them! "
"Against Germany, we had enough psychological advantage.
This victory will help build more confidence, and then focus more on this year's European Cup, which is the game we value most in this competition cycle!
The current Italian national team is not what it was two years ago. Under my adjustments, the Italian team has undergone profound changes. We have the best defense in the world.
We are fully capable of blocking the attacking Germans, just like in history, no matter how powerful they have a striker, they will always be crushed in front of the Italian defense! "
This is what Conte said to the media at the pre-match press conference after the training session the afternoon before the match against Germany, and it was exposed by the media and TV stations all over Europe that night.
Everyone understands that this is Conte's psychological warfare against the German team.
The purpose is to bring back the painful memories of the German team in previous competitions, and at the same time inspire the confidence of the Italian players.
After all, in the last World Cup, Italy suffered a disastrous defeat, and their opponent Germany became the new world champion.
Moreover, after Zhao Jinge joined, he has been in the limelight recently, and he just slaughtered the England team, which has a strong lineup.
Therefore, appropriately speaking harsh words is also a means of relieving pressure for the Italian team.
This friendly match is a key battle for both sides to check their own status and verify the team lineup. Both sides also sent their strongest lineup as much as possible.
Therefore, both teams have the intention of defeating their old opponents to accumulate momentum and impact this year's European Cup.
Conte also commented on the German team in the interview.
The Italian coach believes that the German team played very well in the second half of the qualifiers and the recent friendly match. Even against the two strong teams of France and England, especially the England that was massacred a few days ago, it was indeed a rare game. The offensive storm showed the momentum of the German team.
"But it's obvious that most of their transformation depends on Zhao Jinge, a talented player!
As long as we can find a way to limit his performance, the German team's offense will encounter problems, and their offensive threat will definitely drop significantly.
Just like the predicament they encountered in the first half of the European Cup qualifiers.
And the Italian team is the best defensive team, I have prepared a targeted defense for him, let us wait and see in the game! "
Conte's speech was as usual, with a strong personal touch, straightforward and without hesitation.
Almost by name, Lu Fu and Zhao Jinge wrote a war letter.
But precisely because of this, Conte's remarks further aroused the anger and fighting spirit of the German team.
Loew also challenged the Italian team in the pre-match press conference, saying that the team will not be conservative at home and will use all its strength to overcome the Italian defense.
"As I said before, my team and I are eager for more victories at the Olympiastadion in Berlin and to return those humiliating defeats to the Italians!
We are waiting for our opponents at our home court with a heart of revenge, and we will do our best to fight for a victory!
This will be a complete victory. How can a team that was eliminated in the World Cup group stage be the opponent of the world champion? ! "
Under the exaggeration of the coaches of the two sides exchanging harsh words, the strongest duel between spear and shield will be officially staged at the Berlin Olympic Stadium!
On the evening of March [-]th, at the home court of the German team, the match between the German team and the Italian team had reached the second half.
The score on the scoreboard was zero to zero.
Although the players of the German team tried their best to use various means to attack, the experienced Italian defense still seemed impregnable.
Moreover, they also relied on the loopholes left by the German team when they took the initiative to attack, and they broke through the oppressive blockade of the German players many times by switching offenses, and played a threatening counterattack.
Only 1 minutes into the first half, the Italian team took advantage of the opportunity when the German team was too high to obtain an excellent counterattack opportunity.
Florenci sent the ball behind, Pellet stopped the ball in the chest and entered the penalty area. Before Hummels, he volleyed and almost broke the German team's goal.
This attack caused the German team's defense to break out in a cold sweat. Loew, who was watching the game from the sidelines, also jumped up from his coach's bench and rushed to the sidelines to roar dissatisfied with his players:
"How many times have I said it! Don't give them a chance to counterattack, pay attention to the rhythm of offensive and defensive transitions, how can you let them enter our penalty area so easily!
Take control of the ball, let me keep an eye on the Italian's two forwards in the defense!If you give them such an easy chance again, you will definitely have no good fruit to eat! "
Under the roar of the head coach, the defensive players of the German team were terrified, and all the defensive players began to maintain their positions at all times.
Due to the need for manpower in the frontcourt attack, Kimmich interspersed in the frontcourt to participate in the attack. Another full-back Hector and two central defenders formed the new defense of the German team and established a three-central defender system similar to that of the Italian team. .
Hector and Hevedes entangled the two Italian forwards respectively. Hummels was in charge of delaying the back. Goalkeeper Neuer also showed his goal waist characteristics, standing at the top of the arc of the penalty area and observing the forwards. field situation.
The German players in the frontcourt also began to press harder. After losing the ball, they also meticulously implemented Loew's tactical arrangements.
Therefore, although the Italian team also played a lot of counterattacks in the following games, none of them caused too much threat. Like the attack in the opening ten minutes, it was the best opportunity for the Italian team so far.
Subsequently, the game completely fell into a stalemate.
The German team showed an aggressive momentum from the very beginning, and continued to attack without any fear or holding back, but showed a determination to use offense to fight the Italian team to the end.
This made Conte realize that the offensive and defensive battle that Loew said before the game is becoming a reality.
This is a showdown!A decisive battle that no one wants to lose!
Conte sat in the visiting coach's bench with his hands clasped on his knees, his eyes fixed on the situation on the pitch like lightning.
"It's almost 10 and [-] minutes, why are they still pressing like crazy at the beginning of the game!"
Conte seemed to be muttering to himself, and seemed to be asking the assistant coach Pasili who was sitting next to him.
He felt very puzzled, they were all professional players, and they participated in the same game, and even the players of the German team ran more than the Italian team, but why did they seem not to be tired?
And what about the Italian team?Obviously, the player's performance and on-court activity have declined a lot.
"Most of them are 26 or even younger! We are all over 30 except for two wing backs"
Pasili expressed his opinion with an ugly expression.
That's the average age of the players on the field for both teams.
But Conte shook his head:
"Not only that, they seem to run a lot, in fact they do run a lot, but they run more as a whole, so their physical energy consumption is much smaller than ours.
And there are a few players who can't run to death on the opposite side, such as Toni Kroos and that scary Zhao Jinge. "
Pasili has also been Conte's assistant for many years. When he heard Conte's words, he immediately understood.
Although the players of the Italian team are also holistic, they still rely more on the individual abilities of the players to solve the problem, which leads to the fact that their players' running is very uneven.
For example, Florenci and De Sciglio on the two wings, they have been running back and forth non-stop, which consumes a lot, while some players run very little or even not much.
For example, several players on the defensive line have been staying in their own big penalty area, and the running distance is relatively much less.
In contrast to the German team, their offensive players in the frontcourt have always maintained an orderly overall movement, and the defensive players in the backcourt have also formed an obvious defensive level. There are very few scenes of running back and forth across the court.
Although the running distance of the players varies, it is still average. The biggest advantage of this is that the players run more at a constant speed, and the consumption is much smaller than that of frequent switchbacks.
After Conte figured out the account at this moment, he couldn't help feeling a little ominous in his heart.
From the beginning to the present, the German team has always been proactive, playing unconservatively, and pressing hard in the frontcourt, forcing the Italian team to make many mistakes in passing and receiving the ball in the backcourt.
However, relying on the timely remedies of the players on the back line, the German team's offense failed to form a goal in the end.
Goalkeeper Buffon has made four very good saves, which shows that the German team's offensive threat is still not small.
In particular, Zhao Jinge's two long-range shots from outside the penalty area were all sudden and heavy bombardments. If it weren't for Buffon's excellent form, Italy's goal would have been lost long ago.
However, Conte's arrangement before the game was really good. Apart from these two long-range shots, Zhao Jinge had no other threatening shots.
Bonucci defended him very well, coupled with Chiellini's supplementary defense, there was almost no chance for Zhao Jinge to break through the Italian defense, and even very few shots in the penalty area.
For such a defensive result, the Italian's defense has been a very successful defense to some extent.
But now the key point is that it is already almost 10 minutes, and the players of the German team still have spare energy, and they can continue this kind of high pressure that has been maintained for the whole game.
After persisting for almost an hour under such a tide of attack, even the Italian defense line couldn't bear it.
When Conte thought that with such an attack, the German team could even last a whole game, and his scalp tingled.
In particular, Zhao Jinge, who is the most offensive threat, has the ability to help the German team's midfielder counterattack on the spot even when he has done a good job on both ends of the offense and defense. Counterattack, this kind of physical reserve is simply outrageous.
"This guy's running distance is already close to [-] meters! Judging by his condition, it is estimated that there will be no problem in running another four kilometers."
"If this continues, our defense will have problems sooner or later!"
The uneasiness in Conte's heart suddenly increased a lot, and his difficulty with the German team was raised to another level.
"Just the introduction of a new striker, the German tank, which had slipped a bit, recovered perfectly!
I have to say that Loew's luck is really outrageous, and he can get such a powerful striker! "
Conte sighed involuntarily, if his Italy had such a battering ram, how great it would be!
