"Are you ready?"
When Yang Cheng's enquiry was heard quietly in the locker room, all the players stood up together, nodded toward Yang Cheng, and their expressions looked very serious.
"Then let's go!" After that, Yang Cheng, who stood at the entrance of the locker room, opened the door of the locker room, and the sound of the closing ceremony swept into the locker room, making everyone feel it. A final atmosphere.
Under the leadership of Captain Ram, the players walked out of the locker room one after another, and Yang Cheng walked out after trailing the team with his coaching staff. There was no communication in the whole process, as if all Waiting for the finals seriously.
In the waiting room of the player aisle, players from both teams lined up to play. When the players of the Spanish national team saw Yang Cheng, they all messed up with each other and greeted Yang Cheng nonstop. The shouts shouted into a ball, which shows how many Yang Cheng's veterans are in this Spanish team.
"Don't fight too fiercely!" Yang Cheng saw the nearest David? Silva, the first to meet him, hugged the kid.
David Silva was surprised for a while, apparently not knowing how to deal with it.
"You too!" Yang Cheng turned to hug Harvey Alonso.
Then Iniesta, Aveloa, Della Red, Villa and Ramos, and finally Spain ’s captain Casillas, Yang Cheng smiled and hugged him, and he was kind to each other. A few words.
At this time, the referee of this game also greeted the players to play, Yang Cheng deliberately fell behind, after the players of both teams walked out of the court, he followed out of the player channel.
As soon as Yang Cheng appeared, there was an overwhelming burst of cheers from the entire Kiev Olympic Stadium. There were even a lot of fans on the scene who sang banners and slogans to cheer on Yang Cheng to show their support and support for Yang Cheng. sure.
Since the two teams were preparing to line up to play the national anthem, Yang Cheng returned to his visiting team coach seat, and he turned his head. Seeing Bosque walked out of the court earlier than the players, he stood in front of the home team's coach seat and prepared.
Finished playing the national anthem, the audience cheered again, and then the players of the two teams returned to their own half. Spreading the formation, ready to start the game, and Yang Cheng was at this time, took the initiative to move to the Bosque in front of the home team coach.
"Ha, hello, Vicente!" Yang Cheng and Bosque hugged tightly.
"Hello, Caesar!" Bosque also embraced his old friend. It just seems that the competition is coming, his smile is a little bit stiff, obviously his mood is not relaxed at all, even if he has experienced so many battles.
Such an event, there may be only one game in a lifetime, and everyone will inevitably feel nervous.
"Hello, Tony!" After Yang Cheng and Bosque hugged. Shaking hands with Tony Grande, then Francisco Jimenez, and finally Mignano. He was familiar with this group of people and greeted each other.
"Are you ready to accept the failure, my world champions?" Yang Cheng asked deliberately before leaving.
Saw him like this, everyone suddenly smiled.
"I just said, it wouldn't be Yang Cheng if you didn't provoke it!" Bosque replied with a smile.
Yang Cheng also smiled, waved towards them, and returned to his coaching area. Now that he has guessed the side, the game is about to start, and Spain first got the kick-off right.

"Audience friends. Audience friends, the 2012 European Cup final is about to start at the Olympic Stadium in Kiev, Ukraine. This is the most important game this year. The two teams against the World Cup champion Spain and Caesar Yang The German team led by Cheng can be said to be the two most powerful national teams in football today. "
"Now we can see the starting lineup and the tactical formation of both sides. Spain still played a forward tactic in this game. Bosque arranged a goalkeeper Casillas. The back lines are Alba, Pique and Ramos. And Aveloa, Xavi Alonso in the midfield, De Lared and Xavi in the midfield, the three players in the front are David Silva, Mata and Iniesta respectively Real Madrid attack lineup! "
"We can see that of the 11 players in this Spanish team's starting lineup, there are a total of 8 players from Real Madrid. Only Xavi, Pique and Alba are from Barcelona, of which Alba was transferred this season. Barcelona, and their opponent Yang Cheng, has been the head coach of Real Madrid for the past 6 seasons! "
"This game is seen by many people as a contest between Western-style Yang Cheng and German-style Yang Cheng, because this Spanish skeleton player and core tactics are from the Real Madrid team led by Yang Cheng!"
"The German team ’s starting lineup today is goalkeeper Neuer, the back line is Ram, Bad Steuble, Hummels and Jerome Boateng, and the three midfielders are Schwein. Steiger, Sven Bend and Tony Klos, the tridents in the frontcourt are Thomas Muller and Ozil, Klose is at the top. "
"From the perspective of the starting lineup, Kyle's accidental injury before the game is obviously true, so Yang Cheng arranged the last game in Italy to play the bad start of Bad Steuble, and Hu Mei. The other defender's position is basically the same configuration as when playing Italy. "
"In the last game against Italy, the German team performed steadily, especially on the defensive, but in this game, Spain's offensive ability surpassed Italy, which will be a big test for the German team's defense, and this ranking The number one team in the world has not lost in the past two years, which makes people worry about the future of the German team. "
"But it is precisely because of the strength of Spain, so we all expect that the German team can challenge Spain's kingship this time and break Spain's **** of the football world. This will definitely make more fans feel happy and excited."
When the live TV footage was given to the sidelines, the Spanish coach Bosque was first found, and then stayed with Yang Cheng. This has almost become one of the games that Yang Cheng led in recent years. Kind of convention.
"Okay, the game is about to start, let us enjoy this world's top football feast together!"
The narrator just shouted at the scene and heard the referee blowing the whistle at the beginning of the game.

…………
Spain, the first kicker, seemed very proactive. As soon as they kicked off, they quickly turned the ball from De La Reed. Immediately passed to the left to Alba, Spain's left road immediately formed a fast dribble advance on the left, cut into the German team's backcourt.
In this set of defensive system developed by Yang Cheng for the German team, the defense on the wing is mostly done by the midfielder and the full-back. By squeezing, the ball holder is squeezed to the side, while others occupy their positions and defend other players.
In this respect, Yang Cheng introduced the concept and method of chain defense in Italy, because in training, he found out through the drill. If so many troops are also invested in the side lanes, it is a little more than worth it, because whether the side lanes invest 3 or 4, they will definitely lead to an absolute disadvantage in other positions.
Midfielder, the position of the players can be connected in series, that is to say, some players are now the top quartet of this four-person group, but once the ball holder returns the ball. He can immediately become another four-person defensive defender after running two steps, and they are connected in series.
But to the side, due to the restrictions of the sidelines. The angle and position of the wing cannot be like the middle, so he introduced some concepts of chain defense to further improve the wing defense.
It was like this time, because Yang Chengli attached importance to Spain ’s left attack, so he placed Schweinsteiger on the right side of the midfield and defended Jerome Boateng, so the two attacked Alba at the same time. Forced Alba to return the ball.
But after Alba returned, Ramos immediately passed the ball to David Silva, who was already in position when Schweinsteiger approached Alba. Once the ball was scored, the surrounding Sven Bender immediately posted it, while Tony Klos and Schweinsteiger also flanked from both sides, and Hummels was preparing to delay the defense.
This was originally the German team to complete the fan-shaped defensive arrangement against David Silva, but it can be set up too slowly, David Silva has a very sensitive sense of smell. As soon as he realized that something was wrong, he immediately passed the ball.
Saw Della Red plug in from the back, greeted David Silva's ball and slammed the ball, the ball missed!
"After the opening of Spain, he actively launched a fierce attack on the German team's defense. Bosque's remarks before the game were indeed correct. He opened the posture at the beginning of this game, and it was clear that he wanted to fight the offensive tactics with the German team. , Launched a crazy attack on the German team's defense, hoping to break the goal first. "
While the on-site commentator was talking, Yang Cheng was also aware of the problem that the team had just appeared on the sidelines and exposed a flaw and loophole. Otherwise, De La Reed should not be able to face the goal directly.
"This is a normal familiarization process, just a while!" Benitez said.
Yang Cheng nodded his head. The training and the official competition are very different.
His set of fan-shaped defenses, although the German team has been running for many days, the effect is not bad, but it is always done in training, but no matter how high the training is, it ca n’t be compared with the game. Whether it is pressure, speed, rhythm, or conversion, the requirements of the official game will be higher than the training.
The German team ’s defensive system has not yet been tested in the official game, so in this game, the effect is not known, no one knows, this also needs to see whether it can withstand the test of Spain ’s offensive .
Soon, Neuer kicked the goal kick, Klose grabbed the first point in front, but Spain's defensive cleverness directly controlled the second point, Xavi Alonso kicked the ball back to Pique, The latter quickly transferred to Avelloa.
After Boske finished the first game of the group, a big change was the liberation of the full-back. Alba on the left replaced Miguel Torres. This is already a clear signal, even Aveiro on the right Ya also actively participated in the offense, just like this time, after he got Pike's pass, he took the ball forward and attracted defensive attention.
"We can see that after Germany's defense has shrunk, Aveloya took the ball in the center line, Thomas Mueller did not grab it for the first time, obviously this is the defensive strategy of the German team. They don't want Expand the defense area, but to shrink the defense and compress the area in front of your goal. "
When he said this, the live commentator suddenly laughed. "It seems that Yang Cheng did not lie this time. He seems to want to use Mourinho's Chelsea tactics against Real Madrid to deal with the current Spain."
Sure enough, as soon as Aveloya was about 40 meters away from the goal of the German team, Thomas Muller began to exert pressure actively, and Tony Clos behind him was also ready for the first time. But after Aveloa snatched it, he passed the ball across to Xavi.
As soon as Harvey took the ball, Tony Cross was forced up the first time, Thomas Muller and Ozil were responsible for the strategy, and Sven Bender was behind them to assist. This time the four people converted The speed is fast, and Harvey just got the ball, and Tony Cross is forced. Then formed a siege.
No way, Harvey watched that the pass line in front was cut off and blocked. He had to knock the ball back to Xavi Alonso behind him, but Klose forced it up for the first time and Xavi Alonso knocked back again.
As soon as the ball came out of the German team's threat zone, the German team's pressure and defense became weaker.
…………
…………
"Not quite right!" Tony Grande wondered.
When defending Alba and David Silva just now, he still didn't feel it, but now when he sees the German team defending Avelloa and Xavi in succession, plus Xavi Alonso, he has worked hard He looked very sturdy, and he immediately noticed something was wrong, but what was the specific. He couldn't speak again.
This glue took about 5 minutes. In these 5 minutes, Spain failed to effectively send the ball into the 32-meter area of the German team. It could only be outside this threat zone and near the center line. Possession of the ball is difficult to create a threat.
"I will say. This kid is never very sure about the battle. He must be prepared for closed-door training. It seems that he intends to die with us to the end!" Bosque shook his head and smiled.
Today's Spanish ball possession rate is high, because from the beginning to the present, the German team is almost always defending, and Spain is holding the ball to attack, but failed to enter the threat zone, which is equivalent to failing to create a threat.
Comparison of the number of shots of Spain and Germany team, 1: 0, both sides did not shoot right, which can also be seen how tight the situation is.
"Is he studying Mourinho?" Jimenez asked with a smile.
Tony Grande shook his head. "No, it's not Mourinho's defensive tactics. As long as they are in the middle, they always form a four-person combination. The distance control is also very good. It seems that they have worked hard. Grab, two countermeasures, after a long delay, great! "
The Spanish's tactical sense of smell is also keen. Just a few minutes saw the staffing of Yang Cheng's defensive system. It can be seen that it is one thing, whether it can be broken, but another.
"We can't always control the ball in the periphery, we must advance!" Tony Grande said.
Bosque himself knows this well. If the ball cannot be pushed into the threat zone, their ball control will become meaningless, but now the German team's defense is on the line, Spain must think about it as soon as possible. Method.
"Let them take more sidewalks, speed up, don't stick the ball, succinctly pass the ball forward, use the speed to tear the German team's defense from the sidewalk, and then plug in to find opportunities!" Bosque made the decision.
Mignano immediately communicated to the players, and Tony Grande clapped his hands.
From a series of details, it can be seen that the German team's defensive system is good, which is true, but because it is good, it is somewhat complicated, whether it is an organization of four people, or offensive and defensive It takes time to adapt to the handover, especially the transition from the side road to the middle road.
Obviously, the German team ’s defense on the wing is different from that in the middle. The wing has angles and line limitations, making it impossible for them to be like the middle. If the ball passes from the side to the middle, the German team ’s defense needs to be converted. However, it is obvious that their conversion is not very smooth, or it can be said that they are quickly running in and familiarizing themselves.
In this case, once Spain slows down, it is equivalent to giving the German team a run-in and familiar time. Once they are grinding into the shape, it is the copper wall and the iron wall, so Bosque said to play fast, because the fast, it was not exposed. Problems, this will soon be fully exposed.
Thinking of this, Tony Grande looked at Bosque without admiration.
Many people think that the Spanish coach is a kind father's head coach, like a humble parent, but in fact, he definitely has a tactical sense and keenness not to lose to anyone, at least he can learn about the German team's After the strategy, the first time to respond to the decision immediately, rushing to this ability, you can determine his strength.
As he was saying, he saw Spain once again organized an offensive, and Alba led the ball again on the left. This time, after attracting the defensive attention of two players, he quickly passed the ball to Della behind him. Reid, the latter passed to Harvey.
Harvey didn't make any adjustment after taking the ball. He kicked the ball over the top and hit the ball. He gave the German team the right side of the penalty area and saw Mata suddenly inserted from behind Bad Steuble. Go up and grab the ball before everyone.
This kid is also very clever. He knows that Bad Steuble and Ram are desperately chasing back. If he takes the ball and rushes forward, he will be blocked in front of the bottom line, so this time he did not continue Going forward, but at the moment of getting the ball, there is a sudden emergency stop, turning around, taking a step back, and waiting for the player who plugs in later to come and make a cross!
