Chapter 41 The way to deal with glory (7000)
Glory scored again in the 11th round of the league.
This time his opponent is Frankfurt. Werder Bremen defeated Frankfurt at home, and Rongguang contributed his second goal to the team.
At that time, Frankfurt had just equalized the score, and Rongguang used a long shot to help Werder Bremen take the lead again.
The performance of Glory made the entire Wesser Stadium crazy.
Rong Guang was in excellent condition, and Werder Bremen was in excellent condition. In the 12th round, Werder Bremen swept Hannover 3 away, and Rong Guang scored another goal.
In the 13th round of the league, Werder Bremen defeated Bochum at home. Although Rongguang did not score, he used his breakthrough to disrupt Bochum's defense many times and helped Werder Bremen defeat Bochum at home.
In the 14th round of the league, Werder Bremen challenged Hamburg away, and the two sides finally tied at 22.
Rongguang scored twice in this game. This is his second time in the season.
His two goals saved Werder Bremen and avoided the team's failure.
"This is the most wise signing of Werder Bremen this season. We not only strengthened our strength, but also weakened our competitor Bayern Munich's strength. In this round of the league, Bayern Munich was tied by Cologne at home 22. Heathfield has already felt the threat of being dismissed and we are at the top of the list."
After the game, the local media of Bremen, the Wesser Messenger, reported the game in such a joyful tone, and his praise for glory was beyond words.
Why do local media in Bremen specifically call Bayern Munich?
Because the next round of the league will be the home match between Werder Bremen and Bayern Munich.
Although Bayern Munich's current ranking is not ideal, Bremen still dares not take it lightly. After all, Bayern Munich is the overlord of the Bundesliga. The lean camel is bigger than the horse, and his remaining power remains. Werder Bremen dares not be arrogant at home.
Judging from the current scoreboard, Werder Bremen ranked first at the top of the list with 35 points, but their top spot is not safe.
Because Stuttgart, ranked second, also has 34 points, only one point less than Werder Bremen.
If they lose to Bayern Munich at home or tied by Bayern Munich, then the league's first place may be out of stock.
Schaff wanted to win the winter championship.
Because in the history of the Bundesliga, 80% of the teams that can win the winter championship eventually became league champions.
Winning the winter championship means winning the league championship.
This temptation made Schaff pay great attention to every game before the winter break.
Playing against Bayern Munich at home is the best time to beat Bayern Munich.
Defeating Bayern Munich has very important symbolic significance.
Bayern Munich has long been the overlord of the Bundesliga, and for other Bundesliga teams, it is like a giant.
If you can defeat a team like Bayern Munich, the morale improvement for Werder Bremen will be very significant, and it will greatly enhance the confidence of the players, and will be much greater for the next game.
※※※
At the same time, Bayern Munich also attaches great importance to this game.
In the 14th round of the league, after Bayern Munich was tied by Cologne at home, Heathfield was under tremendous pressure.
So far, Bayern Munich ranked fourth in the league, with 28 points, a total of seven points away from the league's first Werder Bremen.
This embarrasses the defending champion.
The next direct conversation with Werder Bremen will be the best time for them to shorten the gap between the two sides.
At the same time, for some personal reasons, Heathfield is also very eager to beat Werder Bremen away for some personal reasons.
To this end, it has been a long time since he studied Werder Bremen.
In fact, since he drew a circle on the calendar on December 6, he has been preparing for this competition.
He studied Werder Bremen and focused on studying Glory.
He had to put away his eyes that he didn't like, and carefully studied Rong Guang why he performed so well after going to Werder Bremen, slapped himself in the face one after another.
In order to defeat Glory and Werder Bremen, Heathfield doesn't even want face.
But it is a bit ironic to say that - if he had done so earlier, maybe he would not have to grit his teeth and study glory at this time, but should in turn give Bayern Munich's opponents a headache for glory.
※※※
In Bayern Munich's tactical class today, Heathfield showed the players video of Werder Bremen's game. Unlike usual, today's game video only has one person, not a team.
That is glory.
"I believe you are not unfamiliar with him, but you must not know him enough. In fact, I don't even know him enough..." Heathfield mocked himself, but did not cause everyone's laughter.
Bayern Munich players are not fools. Everyone knows that their former teammates have caused the head coach to have a headache. He can laugh at himself, but he will never be happy that others laugh at him...
So no one laughed.
Besides, there was nothing funny about this.
Originally their teammates, they have become their opponents, and they are also very threatening opponents.
Rongguang's performance in the Bundesliga this season has been enough to blind many people's eyes, making many Bayern Munich players feel ashamed. The reason why they can stay in Bayern Munich is just because they have a better experience. In terms of performance, they are really not as good as Rongguang.
Glory's performance made many Bayern Munich players feel embarrassed.
"…The main reason why Werder Bremen is ranked first this season is that their offense is very strong." Heathfield began to teach his disciples tactical lessons after self-deprecating. "In the fourteen rounds of the league, they scored forty-two goals, which is the most in the league. And the reason why they have such a performance is inseparable from Rong's outbreak."
After saying that, Heathfield began playing the game clip of Glory.
This is all sorted out by the video coach, which gathers all the performances of Rongguang in the game, edits them in a targeted manner, and then shows them for the players.
Cooperating with the coach's explanation, players can easily understand Rong Guang's game habits, his strengths and weaknesses, and find a way to deal with him in the game.
It is really a rare experience for Bayern Munich players who are loaned out of this detail.
In the past, the players who were loaned out were not needed by the team. The team did not need him, which is because there are better players than him in the same position in the team.
But glory is the exception.
"Through the video, we can see that Rong's playing style and habits are fast, so he prefers straight-line breakthroughs. When there is enough space for this kind of breakthrough, it is basically unsolvable."
In the picture, Glory played the first game on behalf of Werder Bremen, and his first goal against Dortmund.
A beautiful 360-degree turn, then accelerated in a straight line, completely knocking away all Dortmund players and hitting the football into the goal.
Everyone is familiar with this extraordinary person, so there was no exclamation in the house.
After that game, Rong Guang's goal seemed to be played by German TV stations many times, and he had already become famous throughout Germany.
The next few glorious goals and successful people all have such a straight-line breakthrough in it.
Even if the route is not a completely straight line, but a little twisted, the general direction is a vertical breakthrough, unlike some players who like to look for space on the horizontal wheel. The personal style of Rong Guang is very strong.
"He rarely passes the ball. As long as the football reaches his feet, he basically takes a belt. Of course, Werder Bremen doesn't need him to pass the ball. They have Miku in the midfield. Currently, Werder Bremen's offense mainly relies on the frontcourt trident, namely Miku, Krashnich and Rong. The three people have clear division of labor. Miku is responsible for organizing the offensive and sending various passes. Krashnich is more versatile, with height and speed, can lead and shoot, and can protect the ball. He is the fulcrum of the frontcourt offensive and captures the fighter's shooting. In Bremen's tactics, Rong's role is very simple, which is to break through and shoot - if you can shoot, you can shoot by yourself, and if you can't shoot, you can break through and disrupt the opponent's defense line, and then either shoot or pass the ball again. Note that passing is the last method he takes, and a choice made under forced circumstances."
Rongguang is a bit unique in playing football, which is his personal reason - only scoring goals can bring high bonuses, so he prefers to shoot by himself.
This can be seen from his technical statistics.
He participated in ten league rounds, scored eight goals and had only one assist.
So in Heathfield's opinion, Rongguang is definitely not the kind of player who likes to assist his teammates, he is more "selfish".
Another reason is Schaff’s tactical arrangement. Schaff obviously discovered the glorious and selfish side, so in the tactics, he did not force him to legend to his teammates, but encouraged him to play by himself and shoot if he can. This seemingly doting approach has brought unexpected good results.
Rongguang's competitive state is very good, and this indulgence tactic has made him play an amazing game. With eight goals, he is already the number one scorer in Werder Bremen.
"Rong's straight breakthrough and speed are his greatest wonder. He relies on this to disrupt the opponent's defense line. Even if he cannot score, his breakthrough can attract the opponent's defensive attention, because it is difficult for a person to defend him from the front. This requires more defensive forces, so that the number of defenders in other positions will be less, and the defense against other Werder Bremen players will be much looser..."
"So, the most important thing for us in this game is that we cannot give Rong a free space and time. We must limit his ability to move around the front of the penalty area and in the penalty area. Wolfsburg's German Cup match against Werder Bremen can provide us with some reference. Although they eventually lost the game, their limit on Rong in the first twenty minutes was very successful. And their conceding of the goal also shows that they did not strictly follow their own tactics. First look at this conceding of the goal..."
A shot of glory entering the ball of Wolfsburg appeared on the projection screen.
Borowsky passed the football to Rongguang, and Rongguang took the initiative to meet the ball, but did not choose to wait in place.
Then, although Rong Guang staggered, he turned around and passed the Calhan who was defending him.
Heathfield pressed the pause button.
He used a laser pen to draw circles on the curtain.
"Here, there is only one Karlhan who pays attention to defending Rong. It is very difficult for a Wolfsburg player to stop Rong, who is flexible and fast. In the previous games, Rong always had at least two players around him, but this time, there was only one person. So Karlhan was broken through. Next..."
The pause ends and the video continues to play.
Rong Guang changed direction again and passed Hans Sape.
Pause again.
"Look, it's still a person, a Wolfsburg player comes up to defend Rong."
Continue playing.
Carlhan caught up from behind and tackled.
"Also alone."
Next, Ponce, Schnor and Nedzipi surrounded Rongguang, but Rongguang still ran out of the encirclement and scored a goal.
"There is no longer any more important behind this. If we let him break through like this, the three people would have failed to snatch him at the front of the penalty area. Why did this happen? Rong used each break to pass one Wolfsburg player after another, thus disrupting Wolfsburg's defense and making their defense completely messy. This is not far from conceding the ball. Why could Rong break through each? Because Wolfsburg gave him too much space."
A court floor plan appears on the screen with a red dot near the middle circle.
"This is Rong's first time receiving the ball. By the time he finally shot, it was about forty meters away. Forty meters of space for Rong was simply to let him run open. Because of the fast speed, the Wolfsburg players could not catch up with him at all. They could only come up one by one and be beaten by him. If Carlhan could be faster when he chased back, the situation would be different. But unfortunately his speed was too slow... So, when we meet Rong, we would never be able to give him such a chance. No matter where he is, at least two people should defend him."
Heathfield doesn't care about Rong Guang's passing. Just one assist shows that Rong Guang is selfish and will not pass the ball unless he has to. Especially when it is very close to the goal, he will not pass the ball. He would definitely rather choose to shoot than pass the ball to his teammates.
