Chapter 2942: Germany learns from Dortmund’s youth storm, will the visiting team take the lead?
The result of this game can be described as quite satisfactory.
The fans who came to watch the game also felt that the trip was worthwhile.
After all, Ye Chen personally took to the field and gave everyone a wonderful performance by dribbling past three players and then volleying the ball into the goal.
When the football hit the net, the Ukrainian fans at the scene cheered louder than the German fans who came from afar.
In the words of many fans, Ye is not a German player, but an Earth player.
If there is any football battle to defend the Earth in the future, Ye Chen will definitely be the captain of the team and a well-deserved striker general!
However, Ye Chen shivered and only felt better after entering the locker room and taking a warm shower.
In fact, it is not easy for players.
Especially when playing football in the middle of winter...
It would be even better if it happens to rain!
After attending the post-match press conference, Löw returned to the hotel with the players.
Before going to bed at night, he held a high-level meeting of the team.
As the team leader, Ye Chen naturally participated in it.
It can be seen that Löw still attaches great importance to Switzerland.
After all, Switzerland is very close to Germany, and most of its players play in the Bundesliga.
He also knows the tactics of the German national team inside and out.
In order to avoid a disaster, he had to give the top management a shot of prevention first.
Never underestimate the enemy!
In fact, such a pre-match press conference is unnecessary for Ye Chen.
After all, Ye Chen is someone who will give his all when playing against a German third division team.
What's more, Switzerland is really awesome. You know, standing at the door is Bayern's nemesis, Sommer!
One game plunged Bayern into despair.
There are also stars such as Xhaka in the midfield and Shaqiri on the front line.
It can be considered a gathering of stars.
If Ye Chen remembered correctly, Switzerland could defeat one or two top teams in every major competition.
There are only three days between November 28th and December 1st.
It takes time for players to recover.
So Löw took the initiative to rotate the players in this game.
Ye Chen took to the field, and Havertz, who shined at AC Milan, was also included in the starting lineup.
When German fans saw this list, they felt two words: stable!
The venue for this match is the RheinEnergieStadion, Cologne's home stadium.
The stadium has a long history and can accommodate 50374 fans on normal days, and 46134 fans on international match days - because standing fans are not allowed during international matches.
The weather is still cold.
But the atmosphere is more lively than previous club competitions.
In any case, the UEFA Nations League A is also FIFA's top official competition.
When there was no World Cup or European Cup, these competitions were relied upon to increase ratings and attendance.
Ye Chen had a rest for one game, and this time he finally started.
At the pre-match press conference, Löw announced the news in advance.
Löw also said, "Inspired by Ten Hag, I decided that this time we should also set off a youth storm!"
When the fans saw the list, they shouted "Wow!"
Fans exclaimed: Wow!!
Even Neuer did not start, but was replaced by the younger Leno.
Neuer is 34, while Leno is 28.
"CCTV! CCTV!"
As the game was about to begin, He Wei was already ready.
The passionate voice immediately made the fans focus on the TV.
At the same time, Ye Chen walked into the court with the caddy, followed by a large group of young players!
"Germany today is very different from the past!"
"Leno is the goalkeeper!"
"The back four is Gosens, Rudiger, Ginter and Kimmich."
Gosens is 26, Rudiger is 27, Ginter is 26, and Kimmich is 25.
As a defensive player, he is definitely a young man!
"Three midfielders: Kroos, Goretzka and Havertz!"
"Brandt on the left, Ye Chen on the forward, Werner on the right."
In this lineup, except for Kroos who is 30 years old, the others are all under 30!
Generally speaking, if Ye Chen starts, Wang Chu will also start.
But this time Wang Chu was not selected for the roster due to injury.
"Holy crap, is Germany trying to do something?"
"Is this a failure? It seems like Löw is looking down on Switzerland!"
"Why are you panicking? Ye Shen is here."
"I think there's nothing wrong with this starting lineup. The World Cup is coming up in two years. If we don't practice it, how can we win the next one?"
"The person above is crazy! No team has ever won three consecutive World Cup titles!"
"There's a miracle called Ye Chen! As long as Ye Shen is here, let alone three consecutive championships, maybe even five consecutive championships!"
"..."
As soon as the first release came out, it caused heated discussion across the entire Internet.
In fact, this lineup is also a bold attempt by Löw.
Because the World Cup is in two years, the UEFA Nations League is more of a training session for him.
So he must let young people take over and become the backbone of the team.
Of course, apart from Neuer, this lineup is the possible starting lineup in his mind.
"The Swiss side is in a 442 formation!"
"Goalkeeper Sommer."
"The back four is Ricardo Rodriguez, Akanji, Nico Elvedi and Sylvain Widmer."
"The midfield four consists of Bale, Xhaka, Floirer and Shaqiri."
"The two forwards, Seferovic and Gavranovic!"
There are many familiar people here.
Ricardo Rodriguez is Ye Chen's former teammate, Akanji is his current teammate, Xhaka and Shaqiri are both famous football players.
The energy that this group of people unleashes when they get together is beyond your imagination!
But Ye Chen is not afraid...
By the way, although Akanji is a Dortmund player, he only recently returned to the team because of a serious injury he suffered at the end of last season.
And in the last round of the German Cup match, the last substitution was Akanji.
With the return of Akanji and Zagadou, the originally short-staffed central defenders now have enough.
In fact, this is also the reason why Ten Hag did not buy a central defender before, but signed Mazraoui first.
There is a real shortage of full-backs, and no one is injured...
"Beep!"
Accompanied by the referee's whistle.
This highly anticipated game has officially begun.
No one expected that the visiting team Switzerland would be the first to launch the attack.
2 minutes 52 seconds.
Xhaka in the middle made a beautiful pass to Shaqiri on the right.
The Swiss Messi did not make any fancy feints and accelerated towards the baseline.
Just when everyone thought he was going to pass the ball, he made a beautiful spike.
Then a low cross came directly.
The ball was aimed at Froyler who was coming in from behind.
But just as the football flew over, Kroos quickly fell to the ground.
The football was stopped directly.
However, the ball accidentally ended up at the feet of the advancing striker Seferovic!
"The interception turned into an own goal assist!"
"Seferovich half-single-handedly faces the door!"
At the critical moment, Leno remained calm and quickly moved towards the forward position.
However, Seferovic was also very calm, and he swung his right foot and shot...
"Oh!"
This ball hit Leno's crotch!
P.S.: Some fans don’t like watching Wang Yudong’s plot, so I’ll write less about it next time!! Let’s continue with our main storyline!!
