Chapter 265

It's a good thing for the team to have the national team match mixed in after the League loss, which can make them slow down. But it's not necessarily good for the reputation of the team, because it also allows the media to find many opportunities to criticize the team.

Wolfsburg lost to Dortmund a while ago, there were a lot of negative comments in the media. In that game, they were hanged by Dortmund, but they lost in the end. They made a foul move that made people extremely disdain. This kind of behavior also made Wolfsburg bear a lot of pressure during this period of time.

Magath's team has never been very popular in Germany. A while ago, Wolfsburg's rise was very fast, and even reached the second place in the league in a short time, which also made the media panic. However, with their failure, the media seems to see their weakness. Many media think that maybe Wolfsburg's strength is just a flash in the pan. Compared with the real strong team, it is not in the same level. This loss may be the turning point of their fate.

Maybe what the media said about strength is right. Compared with Dortmund, Wolfsburg is still far behind. However, it can not be ignored that Wolfsburg still has a great advantage in the face of other Bundesliga teams. Especially when Wolfsburg fight at home, their advantage is very big, which is no one can deny.

In the 13th round of the league, Wolfsburg didn't let the media talk any more. In the game, they proved that they didn't sink after losing with their performance.

Wolfsburg won a beautiful home game against Mainz. The first 23 minutes, Wolfsburg rely on a manzuki pull after the cooperation, making Salihamidzic into the penalty area. Wolfsburg opened up to the other side of the penalty area for a shot from close range.

After one goal, the retired veteran continued to prove his strength with great performance. After an opponent fouled and got the set piece, he used a free kick of nearly 30 meters to shoot directly and opened the opponent's door twice.

Wolfsburg this season, this is the first time there is a free kick direct goal, this goal, but also let people see that Wolfsburg's morale is absolutely not down, they still maintain a strong morale, can also play a good ball.

Mainz, the opposite of them, did not want to fight back. Before the end of the first half, Mainz also used a quick counterattack to score a goal. Unfortunately, their efforts were quickly broken in the second half.

Shortly after the start of the second half, when Salihamidzic took the ball again, relying on his performance of scoring two goals, he attracted many opponents to watch. After attracting the opponent's attention, the old player also made a beautiful pass: he passed the ball directly to the other side of the penalty area, making Gao shunyao have the chance to attack.

Gao shunyao didn't live up to this pass. He didn't even stop the ball to shoot again. Instead, he made a beautiful header to head the ball into the goal. With his goal, the score became 3-1, which proved that Wolfsburg is not only a Salihamidzic, but also a fighter.

The 3-1 score gave Mainz no idea to pull back, but tightened the defense in an all-round way, but it didn't make their situation much better. In the final stage of the game, Pollack, who came on as a substitute, scored a goal and declared Wolfsburg's morale with a 4-1 game.

This victory, let people see the Wolfsburg still exist fighting capacity and morale. However, people are more concerned about their next game.

As everyone knows, Wolfsburg's problem is not at home, but away. Their away game against Augsburg is what people pay attention to.

As a promoted polo team, Augsburg is certainly not a particularly strong enemy. Just upgraded, they are not outstanding in strength.

However, after the battle with Dortmund, Wolfsburg also had a new view on the away game. Their pursuit is no longer simply to win, but how to consolidate their defense in the away game: with the attack, they can beat Hamburg, Augsburg and other teams, but no matter how many such victories, as long as they can't win against Bayern, Dortmund and other strong teams, their victory will be empty talk after all In contrast, how to steadily improve their defensive ability is what Wolfsburg need to care about.

The players in Wolfsburg's back line still have some of their own strengths. First of all, their midfield strangling ability is very strong, and the two midfielders can well withstand the midfield pressure of strong teams, which is an advantage that other teams can hardly achieve. It's just that their back line is relatively weak.

Frederick is a bit older and hasn't been in good shape since he suffered a serious injury last year. Ruth has just entered the team for half a year, and his talent itself is relatively limited. Keyar is skilled and well-known, but his playing style seems not to match the Bundesliga all the time, while Rong is not like a defensive player. His contribution is more in attack.As far as the lineup is concerned, they are not very good. Wolfsburg's game many times there are some helpless mistakes, is not a new thing. Their defense problem is very big, especially in the middle of the defense, but also with has been doing well. It is also for this reason that Bayern, who plays on the side, can only play 1-0 against Wolfsburg, while Dortmund, who plays in the middle, plays 3-1.

If you want to improve the strength of the team, naturally you have to improve the defensive ability first, which is also the most important truth that Wolfsburg players understand after Dortmund thoroughly pierced the defense.

In the face of Mainz, Wolfsburg players are still thinking about how to adjust their offensive line, first play enough morale, so that the team does not sink, and in the face of Augsburg, Wolfsburg, who has recovered their morale, is thinking about how to adjust the defense and enhance the overall strength.

"The forward line should grab the ball more and interfere with the opponent's delivery on the restricted area line. The back waist should pay attention to the connection with the guard line, and do not strive for mutual cooperation and interaction, and do not ignore each other. Attack and fast attack and defense conversion, through the long pass and side to complete, make good use of our height advantage to complete the fast transfer.... "

For how to defend, magate has been conducting counseling during this period of time. Compared with the previous period of time, his requirements can be said to be more and more detailed.

Many teams have different opinions on how to defend to maximize their advantage. In the past two years, the most popular Tactical Idea in the world is to emphasize the Barcelona Style playing method of controlling the ball. It emphasizes that as long as the ball is controlled under the feet, the opponent will not have a chance. Such tactics, in the Bundesliga is not no one to learn, at least Dortmund's klopp, has been saying that he is learning from Barcelona.

However, for this kind of tactics, Magat is not interested in learning. To die because he does not like to learn, but because his tactical thinking and Barcelona have some differences. In his defensive concept, let go is achieved by the whole court's pressing and all the players' joint efforts. From Stuttgart on, his tactical idea is that midfield all-round player, wide open space, his tactics will be adjusted, but it is difficult to adjust his thinking.

Therefore, for Wolfsburg now, he can only make some more detailed adjustments: for example, Gao shunyao, who requests to withdraw and pull more sides, interferes with the opponent's ball on the line of the restricted area, requires the midfield wingers to participate in the counter seizing, and requires Mattic and keyar to make more linkage to enhance the defense of the back court, but he will not propose to let the team play technical It's a good control strategy.

It's not his style, it's not something the Wolfsburg players can do. What they can do is to mend and modify magate's tactical thinking.

From the day he returned to Wolfsburg, he has been in charge of Wolfsburg for 30 games. Even this season and the friendly match, Wolfsburg have played more than 20 games. There are many requirements and inner ideas of magate. After he mentioned them, the team can quickly understand them, which also gives him room to play his tactical details.

For example, if in the past, he and Holmes said that they interfered with each other's ball in front of the penalty area, Holmes would certainly not be able to do so. But now, Gao shunyao in this position, but can do this tactical arrangement. If it is in the past, Mattic has not been integrated, where can he take care of keyar? But now, he was able to connect the whole court.

However, the tactics just adjusted have many problems when they are used. What a good team pays attention to is the integration of attack and defense, which can realize the rapid transformation between attack and defense. At the same time, it must be invincible. However, Wolfsburg is not such a good team. They can't take care of both at the same time now. Therefore, what they are pursuing now can only be one of them.

Facing the game of Augsburg, Wolfsburg chose the active defense of the whole field. They didn't attack much. Instead, they used the poor attack of Augsburg, a promoted horse, to practice their defensive level on them.

Their experiment is quite successful. At least 90 minutes of the game, Augsburg failed to capture Wolfsburg's door. However, Wolfsburg also paid the price, the game, they did not break the door of the opponent.

But it's all worth it.

"At least in this game, we played away, but we didn't lose the ball."

On this game, magate made an evaluation with the most concise sentence.

Others may not understand the significance, but Wolfsburg players understand: Wolfsburg away this season's performance is quite poor, up to now only won two games, can not lose the ball, has the very great significance to them.

Only when you have a firm foothold can you hit others. With a solid back court defense, Wolfsburg can go further in the league.
