Neuer threw himself in front of the penalty area line, roared angrily, and beat the grass with both hands.

Unwilling, humiliating, angry, helpless...

Various complex emotions filled his face, making him look a little hideous.

Over the years, he has been focusing on Yang Yang.

There is no reason. He is the world's number one top goalkeeper, and Yang Yang is the world's number one top scorer. The two are born mortal enemies. More importantly, Neuer was teased by Yang Yang many times, and he was unwilling to accept it.

Just now, Yang Yang gave a direct free kick, and Neuer made a precise prediction and blocked the ball with one hand.

This brought unprecedented confidence to the German goalkeeper, who believed that he could seal Yang Yang tonight.

But just now, the angrily shot at the front of the penalty area was once again broken by Yang Yang, which made the German goalkeeper feel extremely embarrassed and helpless.

Before the game, the German team had a full understanding of Yang Yang. Tony Cross also repeatedly emphasized in the locker room to pay attention to Yang Yang, especially during the halftime break, when Loew asked Kimmich to go forward and participate in the offense more, Tony Cross did not agree.

"Don't be fooled by the rumors outside. Yang Yang left Real Madrid not because he is old or because his strength has declined. On the contrary, he played very high standards last season, especially in shooting ability."

"I'm not sure if our central defender can freeze Yang Yang!"

This was Tony Cross's original words at that time. He was admonishing Loeff to not make such a big bet.

If you lose the bet, Germany's trip to Russia's World Cup will be completely over.

Kröloff finally decided to bet.

Perhaps he didn't think the Chinese team was able to strike a decent counterattack at all, or he felt that Yang Yang, who performed mediocrely in the first half, didn't seem to have much lethality. As long as the German team scored a goal, the Chinese team would be dead.

But the development of the results was surprising.

The Chinese team defended for 77 minutes and even made a counterattack.

The young player Jule was dealt with in the first encounter with Yang Yang. Hummels was old and could not block Yang Yang's position as soon as possible. What's even more serious is that Yang Yang's shooting skills are too fast and his angle is too tricky.

At the beginning, Neuer's vision was blocked by Jule. When Yang Yang picked the ball past Jule, he shook the angle and then directly hit the ball. The shot was very fast and the angle was very tricky. Hummels tried to block it, but he was a beat slower.

Neuer claimed that he had a very fast reaction, but when he saw Yang Yang shoot, determine the ball path, and fly sideways, it was too late.

Tony Cross was right, Yang Yang is indeed old.

He lost his speed and impact power when he was young, and even his ability to dribble through the ball was greatly reduced. However, his shooting ability has become sharper, his movement frequency is faster, his footwork is more secretive, and his grasp of the timing is more unique.

Neuer dares to say that he couldn't save the shot just now, and no goalkeeper in the world could save it!

This is Yang Yang, a guy who gets more and more monsters as he gets older!

Lof shook his head when he watched on the sidelines.

He knew that his big bet would probably lose.

Yang Yang's shot forced him and the German national team to the edge of the cliff, either reversed and turned the tables or completely fell into decline.

But what is the German team going to make a comeback now?

He remembered Tony Cross's reminder during the halftime break that if Kimmich was in position, Jule would not need to rush to play. The two central defenders would be closer to the middle, and Yang Yang would be able to kick the foot in a smaller angle.

But at that time, Kimmich was in the frontcourt.

Lof still underestimated the difficulty of this World Cup and the evolution of skills and tactics.

Perhaps it was the last World Cup that won him and his team that made him have some blind and unrealistic fantasies, so that they all began to become a little out of reality.

He admired Guardiola very much, but at this moment, he suddenly remembered the case of Manchester City's first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals knockout match, but was defeated by the Reds three-to-zero.

How similar!

Guardiola also lined up a four-two-three-one formation at that time, goalkeeper Ederson, defense line Laporte, Kompani, Otamendi and Walker, double midfielders Fernandinho and Gundogan formed double midfielders, Sane, James Rodriguez and Bernardo Silva were ahead, and single forward was Jessus.

It is obvious that Guardiola's strategy in that game was also a requirement for stability, and he also wanted to control the midfield and ball rights.

He succeeded!

Manchester City's possession rate reached 66% in that game, and the number of shots was more than Liverpool. Various data seemed to be crushing their opponents, but the final result was that Manchester City lost 0-3 away and lost the knockout round directly.

Why?

It's almost exactly the same as the current German national team!

Lack of side roads.

Sane is ahead on the left, but Laporte cannot provide strong support. Walker is on the right, but there is no attacker in the frontcourt.

On the contrary, in the second half, Manchester City returned to the traditional 433. After replacing Sterling, the situation changed a lot, but at that time, Liverpool had already led by 3-0.

But after Manchester City got on Sane, there was at least one Sterling on the bench, but what about the current German bench?

Lof still clearly remembers that when he saw Manchester City lose to Liverpool by 0-3, he repeatedly reminded himself to be careful not to repeat Guardiola's mistakes, but who would have thought that it had only been a long time since he stepped into a trap that was almost exactly the same as Guardiola.

He regretted not taking Sane!

Far away in Amsterdam, Van Gaal and Van der Sar are still working.

The Ajax technical team gathered in the conference room to watch the live broadcast of this World Cup focus battle.

The result was shocked.

It is not because Yang Yang attacked such a wonderful counterattack, but because Yang Yang's judgment of the current technical and tactical trends in European football and his deduction of future technical and tactical development.

"I really didn't expect that the German team, which lacks wings and width, would play like this." Borgkamp shook his head in disbelief.

That's the German team!

When all fans mention the German tank, their first impression is stability.

Everyone can see that the Chinese team in this World Cup is no longer as good as before, but the German team is unable to take advantage of the Chinese team.

Not only this game, but also against Mexico and Sweden before.

It is OK to say that German players are in poor condition, but how is it possible to say that they lack fighting spirit?

That's the World Cup!

The key lies in the tactical level!

If you can't start the situation in front, you can only pass and control the ball in the backcourt, otherwise what else can you do?

Should we give the ball rights to our opponents and let them fight back?

"After all, he is a star who has been at the forefront of Europe for a long time. Yang Yang's understanding of football and his analysis of skills and tactics are worth our study and deep thinking." Van der Sar was also full of sighs.

If they were a little suspicious before, they even felt that if they couldn't find a suitable right back, Dumfries would force them to do it, but now, they really don't dare to think so.

Yang Yang has used a living case to tell Ajax's management that without a wing, it's a death!

"We have to listen to Yang Yang this time." Van Gaal made a quick decision, "within the acceptable range of the club, at any cost, we must introduce an offensive right-back, and we must not lose money!"

Van der Sar and others nodded one after another.

…………

…………

After Yang Yang scored a goal, the German team began to counterattack wildly.

For them, only by equalizing the score or even killing the Chinese team can they have a chance to advance.

If you lose, there is no difference between losing one goal or two goals.

After the Chinese team led by one goal, their morale was greatly boosted and the whole team began to retreat across the board.

Queros immediately replaced Wu Lei and Zhao Xuri, and continued to strengthen the midfield defense.

The Chinese team adopted the tactic of retreating and was firmly suppressed by the German team within a 30-meter area.

After Gomez came on the court, the German team's balls began to increase on both wings, and they also created several dangerous situations, but they failed to create absolute murderous intent and always missed the goal.

The Chinese team is more confident the more they defend.

Especially when it entered stoppage time, even German goalkeeper Neuer began to rush forward and entered the Chinese team's half, and ignored the goal behind him.

Faced with the German team that was frantically counterattacking, the Chinese team also performed quite tenaciously.

Yang Yang played the whole game, and his physical fitness was consumed very much, but he was still actively participating in the defense.

In the 93rd minute, when he saw Neuer rushing through the center line again and rushing into the Chinese team to receive the ball within the 30-meter area, he immediately returned to defense.

Neuer tried to drive the ball to break through Yang Yang, but Yang Yang took the lead and stabbed the foot.

After intercepting the ball, Yang Yang quickly chased the ball.

At this moment, he was already hot-headed and was just thinking about kicking the ball out as soon as possible, so as not to let the German team continue to create danger near the penalty area in his 30-meter area.

Even if it's just a breath, it's good!

And habitually, after catching up with the ball, Yang Yang directly swung his big foot and kicked the ball forward with all his strength.
To be continued...
