Chapter 682

"Midfield: Gosens, Goretzka, Toni Kroos, Kimmich."

"The attacking midfielders are Havertz and Musiala!"

"Center forward Werner."

"It's completely different. Löw probably wants Spain to guess his starting lineup, so his starting lineup is completely different from what the fans thought before."

"Not only is the formation different, Havertz is no longer playing as a center forward, he is starting to play as a front midfielder, and Werner is starting!"

"Musiala no longer plays as a left winger, he also starts to play as a front midfielder, and the starting midfielder Gosens is actually a left forward. He is fast and has good offensive ability!"

"But I was a little surprised that Gundogan was not in the starting lineup but Goretzka was in the starting lineup. I hope Goretzka can play normally in this game."

When Hierro saw the German team's starting lineup, he felt it was a little beyond his expectations.

But Spain's starting lineup has already been fixed and will not change.

Hierro felt that there was no need to make adjustments. Since Gaya no longer had to defend Musiala, he could participate in the attack.

Gaya has speed, and full-backs with speed generally have offensive capabilities.

“The starting goalkeeper for the Spanish side is Unai Simon, but there are still many fans who don’t like him starting.”

"Left back Alba, right back Gaya, center backs Laporte and Eric Garcia, now Pau Torres will have to sit on the bench."

"The midfielders are Rodri, Saul and Lin Chen. Pedri did not start this game. Although Saul does not have the midfield attacking ability of Pedri, he can help Rodri in defense and can also help Lin Chen maintain the midfield rhythm!"

"Sarabia will continue to start in the frontcourt, Oyarzabal will become the right winger, and Morata will still be the center forward."

"Fans don't like Morata's performance in this European Cup, but Morata can start and play better every time!"

In the corridor, Lin Chen could feel the eyes of these German geniuses around him eager to challenge him.

Lin Chen is now the most worthy player to be challenged in the entire football world.

The players enter the stadium, the European Cup quarter-finals begin, and the German team kicks off!

"Germany kicked off and, as is their tradition, tried to use blitzkrieg tactics, but Rodri intercepted the ball with a great aerial defence."

"Havertz got the ball and passed it to Musiala."

Musiala started dribbling as soon as he received the ball, and his two feet made the ball keep shaking on the grass. Every shake made Rodri think that he might be about to break through, and then Musiala took control of the ball back.

This made Rodri not know how to defend Musiala, and then the pass flew from Musiala's feet to Werner!

"Werner shoots!"

"There was no danger. Werner's shot didn't even make Unai Simon make a save. Instead, some Spanish fans made a save and mocked Werner."

"The arguments between the two teams before the game must have prepared both fans to ridicule the other side. The Spanish fans got the chance first and they enjoyed it!"

The tactics that Zabia initially formulated were aimed at Havertz, but now he directly applied the same tactics to Werner.

Because he believes that Werner and Havertz have the same weaknesses.

Although he does not have to defend Musiala directly, Gaya often has to help Rodri to double-team Musiala.

Saul's job is to limit Kroos, while Lin Chen has other uses.

In this match of Zabia, Lin Chen focused on attacking Goretzka.

The 17th minute of the game!

"Right now, Goretzka is the player who defends Lin Chen the most. Some people call him a Matthäus-style midfielder, which is true when he is in good form, but if he is not in good form, he will become a player of another level."

Lin Chen dribbled the ball towards Goretzka. The sudden acceleration caused a change in speed that Goretzka could not cope with. It seemed that he was not in the best condition in this game!
