Chapter 98 Is there such a good thing? [Ninth update please subscribe! 】

Werder Bremen had some problems with the operation of the midfield and frontcourt after De Bruyne was dismissed.

The players seemed not used to Lin Quan appearing in the attacking midfielder position, and the cooperation between the two sides did not form a tacit understanding.

With Lin Quan at the winger position, they are relieved.

But with Lin Quan in the attacking midfielder position, there will be a question mark in the minds of his teammates.

Seeing this, Lin Quan took the initiative to retreat and actively cooperated with his teammates.

Seeing him taking the initiative to catch the ball, Fritz had no choice but to pass the ball to him.

After Lin Quan received the ball, he was immediately pressed by many Schalke players.

The commentators were also worried for him. If he lost the ball in this position, it would be dangerous.

But Lin Quan didn't give the opponent a chance. He passed the ball steadily.

"The ball was passed quite well, there's nothing visible about it!"

The commentators commented very objectively.

A few minutes later, the ball was passed to Lin Quan's feet again.

Before stopping the ball, he observed the positions and running routes of the players on both sides of the field, and then tried to pass a long pass.

Unfortunately, there was no tacit understanding between his teammates and him. After the ball was passed, no one followed up. As a result, his pass did not look like a pass, but more like a mistake.

Lin Quan shook his head and took the initiative to take responsibility, indicating that he had made a mistake.

He overestimated the movement of his teammates. If this was on the Spanish national team, even on the national youth team, there would be players who would understand his intentions and form wonderful cooperation.

But on the club side, the players are not familiar with his playing style, so it is difficult to achieve such cooperation.

It seems that we have to make it simpler.

Schalke's players were relieved when they saw Lin Quan making such an outrageous mistake.

Because the opponent was very famous and had scored their goal before, Schalke's players were very afraid of Lin Quan.

When they saw the other side's abnormal attack, they were worried at first, thinking that the other side had some trump card.

After playing for more than ten minutes, they found:

That's it?

If this is the only level, then they can rest assured!

There is not much time left in the game, and Schalke, who wants to reverse the game, has no time to play games with Werder Bremen.

They began to step up their offense, trying to change the score at the last minute and take all three points.

The opponent's main midfielder was injured and retired. If they still couldn't win despite such a huge advantage, they would have no way to explain to the more than 50,000 fans present.

Former Bundesliga golden boot Huntelaar, who had not yet scored in this game, seemed very hungry. He waved for the ball several times in the frontcourt, wanting to be the hero who changed the score.

But Werder Bremen was well aware of his threat, defended him very tightly, and did not give him a good chance.

However, substitute Drakles and Schalke's No. 10 Holtby had several threatening shots during the game, which almost changed the score.

Seeing that the team was suppressed, the Werder Bremen coaching staff began to worry.

"We put Lin Quan in the attacking midfielder position. The team's offensive coordination in the frontcourt was not able to cooperate, and the threat was reduced a lot. Is this choice really reasonable?"

Assistant coach Rolf said worriedly that the situation on the court looked like he was about to lose.

"Be patient, his playing time is still short, and you can't see anything yet!"

Another assistant coach, Hoenebach, was much calmer. As someone who had witnessed Lin Quan's miracles many times, he had a deep trust in Lin Quan.

This request to play as a midfielder was made by Lin Quan himself. He must have his reasons for doing this. Since you can't guess it, just choose to believe him!

After defusing the opponent's attack, the ball returned to Werder Bremen.

After Lin Quan received the ball, he began to change his playing style. When he encountered the opponent's pressing again, he did not pass the ball immediately.

Instead, he tried to break through. This kind of playing style is also rare among attacking midfielders.

Because if they lose the ball, it will lead to a transition between offense and defense. When they are committing troops to launch an attack, if they suddenly lose the ball and are counterattacked by the opponent, their own defense will have a big loophole, and it is easy for the opponent to score if they are not careful.

Because of this, many strong teams will emphasize the timing of counterattacks, and like to catch the opponent's counterattack when the opponent counterattacks.

Schalke's players did not expect that the opponent would choose to break through. After receiving the ball several times before, he always chose to pass the ball honestly.

This made them less vigilant, and they seemed to have forgotten that the opponent was a sharp winger before.

A player who is good at breakthroughs, whether he is on the wing or in the middle, if given a chance, he can pass.

After passing the pressing player, Lin Quan had many more passing options.

He passed the ball to Elia on the wing and quickly moved forward to receive the ball.

Elia and Lin Quan cooperated many times, and they had a tacit understanding and passed the ball directly to him after the opponent moved.

Lin Quan caught the ball and looked up at the penalty area.

At the front of Schalke's penalty area, substitute Peterson was sprinting with all his strength.

He was running aggressively but didn't seem to notice that he was already in an offside position.

Lin Quan did not pass the ball to him, but continued to dribble forward. He hit the wall with another forward Hunter and hit a long shot outside the penalty area.

The kick was so right that the goalkeeper easily caught the ball.

Lin Quan gave Peterson a thumbs up, indicating that he had run well and asked him to keep up his efforts.

Peterson thought the opponent would pass it to him, but in the end he didn't wait for the ball.

If it had been before, he might have been very angry and ran to ask why the other party didn't pass it to him.

But now, after knowing clearly who is the boss of the team, he does not dare to have any complaints.

After thinking about it carefully, I seemed to have run a little too fast just now. I didn't even see the opponent's defender beside me?

Schalke's players were surprised. They didn't expect that the opponent would dare to make such a breakthrough in the midfield.

He succeeded by luck. If he failed to pass and was intercepted, he would probably cry.

Although they were hit by a long shot from the opponent, Schalke's players didn't care.

Without Lin Quan to put pressure on them up front, it would be too easy for them to defend Werder Bremen's attack.

Schalke's players even had the feeling of going back to last season, when they easily slaughtered Werder Bremen 5-0 at home.

The opponent is still the same fish belly, nothing has changed!

As the game continued, Werder Bremen's players gradually adapted to Lin Quan's rhythm.

Their opponents felt that Lin Quan played poorly in the attacking midfielder position, even mediocre.

But Werder Bremen's players don't see it that way.

When the main midfielder was suddenly replaced, they did not have time to adapt, but Lin Quanneng ensured that he could cooperate with his teammates in such a short period of time, and ensured the success rate of passing and receiving without losing the ball once.

This is enough to prove his strength!

After adapting to his teammates' playing style, Lin Quan's cooperation with his teammates has continued to improve.

Compared with more than ten minutes ago, he now passes and receives the ball more easily and handles the ball more rationally.

Werder Bremen's midfield was organized by him, which greatly increased the confidence of his teammates in him and made them more willing to actively cooperate with him.

Schalke still knew nothing about this and had no idea that the danger had come.

In the 83rd minute, Schalke launched another attack. They piled up a large number of people in the frontcourt, trying to break Werder Bremen's goal with their numerical advantage.

Schalke created a lot of momentum in front of Werder Bremen, but their attack was more thunderous than rainy.

Several shots either hit the defensive players or were saved by the goalkeeper.

The corner kick did not reach the first place, and their attack was smoothly resolved by Werder Bremen.

It was Werder Bremen's turn to counterattack, and the ball was quickly passed to Lin Quan's feet.

Lin Quan originally thought that the opponent would press him as quickly as before, and he was already ready to get rid of the defensive player.

But what surprised him was that the opponent's players did not rush forward immediately.

Lin Quan was surprised, and after observing for a moment, he saw the Schalke players breathing heavily.

Although they tried hard to intercept, their physical fitness did not seem to support their actions, leaving them with half a shot.

After the crazy pressing in the half, the physical fitness of the Schalke players dropped quickly. The physical fitness that had not been fully restored due to the Champions League game, after this half of the squeeze, there was not much left.

Schalke's players couldn't run anymore!

This is good news!

Werder Bremen has been waiting for this moment!

He raised his hand and made a large-scale attack gesture, signaling his teammates to rush forward.

It's our turn to lay siege to Schalke's goal!

The teammates understood and started running like crazy.

Peterson ran the most actively. He remembered what Lin Quan said before: Don't worry about anything else, just run forward!

This time he learned from the previous lesson and did not rush to the front. He always stayed on the same level as the opponent's defender.

In this case, the opponent will not be able to cause him to be offside.

Schalke's defenders looked down upon him. This guy knew how to run blindly after he came on the field. Other forwards were running into the gaps, but he was better. He ran in a straight line and got in between Schalke's two central defenders.

Did you come here expecting to have a chance to hit the goal?

Schalke's defender was scornful. This guy was running so aggressively and his teammates didn't pass the ball to him.

Coupled with his poor run selection, it makes them feel that Peterson is a cover, a cover used to distract them.

So they ignored Peterson and focused on two points: Aaron Hunter and Elia.

According to Lin Quan's previous playing style, he will definitely pass the ball to these two people.

However, to their surprise, Lin Quan did not look for these two people this time.

While running at high speed, he looked up at the running positions of several teammates in the frontcourt and made a quick choice.

Lin Quan's pass was a curved ball that rubbed the grass and had a slight arc.

This ball was passed very difficultly. It passed Schalke full-back Atsuhito Uchida who was on the outside, turned a corner, and landed right in front of the penalty area.

At this time, Peterson happened to run here.

When Peterson was running, he was still thinking about how his teammates were going to pass the ball around the two defenders.

If it really comes through, how can I get rid of the two defenders around me and kick the ball in?

As a result, while running, the ball suddenly appeared in front of him, and the two defenders around him disappeared at some point.

Is there such a good thing?

Without thinking, he directly raised his leg and kicked him.
