Seven Crowns

Chapter 142 Difficult game

At 19:00 local time on April 29, 2008, at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Germany, with the referee's whistle, the 2007/2008 German FA Cup final match between Bayern Munich VS Hoffenheim officially started.

Ibisevic kicked the ball lightly to Lu Wenbin and ran forward. Lu Wenbin turned and kicked the ball to Eduardo behind him, and then ran towards the half of Bayern Munich.

Then, Eduardo, Copado, Salihovic, Gustavo and others began to pass the ball, and Hoffenheim's overall formation pressed forward and started the attack.

Hoffenheim originally envisaged to use the time when Bayern did not pay much attention to Lu Wenbin and the marking was not so tight at the beginning of the game to create a shooting opportunity for Lu Wenbin to see if he could score at the beginning of the game.

As a result, Lu Wenbin just ran into the Bayern goal within 30 meters, and the opponent's No. 16 midfielder Aotel was attached to his side.

After running back and forth, pulling and running horizontally for a while, seeing that Aotel was still closely following him, Lu Wenbin knew that he was being closely guarded by Aotel.

The dignified Bundesliga giant Bayern Munich sent a special defensive midfielder to a 17-year-old Bundesliga striker to closely guard, which shows that Heathfield attaches great importance to Lu Wenbin.

At the pre-match press conference, Hoffenheim strategically despised Hoffenheim, but tactically, Lu Wenbin, who was the biggest threat to Bayern's goal, did not despise him at all.

This is also the reason why people can become famous coaches. Hoffenheim's plan to start the attack failed.

Able to play the main force in Bayern Munich, Otell's defensive ability is needless to say.

His full-time personal marking made Lu Wenbin feel much more pressure against the Bundesliga and even Dortmund.

In the 4th minute, Lu Wenbin successfully received a pass from Copado at the front of the penalty area.

However, before Lu Wenbin's ball stopped, he was gently pushed by Aotel beside him, and his body tilted.

Although he did not lose his focus and fell to the ground, Lu Wenbin also lost the opportunity to kick the door.

And Otell did not foul, the referee was indifferent and did not look like he was going to blow the whistle at all, because such a slight push action is too common on the football field.

Before the game, Bayern took into account Lu Wenbin's ability to score free kicks, and would not easily foul within 30 meters of the goal, but simply used the advantages of height, weight and experience to prevent Lu Wenbin from easily facing the goal.

When Lu Wenbin stood firm and held the ball again, the central defender Van Buiten had already rushed out and grabbed the two of them from front to back. They quickly took advantage of their height and long legs to stab Lu Wenbin's ball away. .

In the face of Ottel and Van Buiten's snatch, Lu Wenbin didn't even shoot the ball, he was stabbed before he even had time to pass the ball out.

Originally, I thought that the other party was the Bundesliga hegemon, so he might be proud to underestimate the enemy and give Lu Wenbin a chance.

Looking at it now, come on, the difficulties that Hoffenheim and Lu Wenbin faced were much more difficult than expected before the game. Bayern Munich and Heathfield were not affected by the media's one-sided optimism about them.

In fact, if Bayern Munich were so easy to be proud of their opponents and lead to losses, they would not have been so stable and dominated the Bundesliga for so many years.

Against the backline of Otell and Bayern head-on, with Lu Wenbin's height, weight, physique, and dribbling ability, it is indeed very difficult to get the chance to catch the ball and hit the goal.

Therefore, Lu Wenbin can only strengthen the movement without the ball, through the change of rhythm, use the unexpected return movement and sudden change of direction to create a short gap to catch the ball.

After all, defense is passive. No matter how dedicated and serious Aotel is to perform the task of marking Lu Wenbin, other defenders also pay attention to assisting defense at any time, but in 90 minutes of a game,

How could it be possible to completely stare Lu Wenbin to death?

After all, Lu Wenbin's off-ball movement is still 13/13, not zero.

Moreover, Lu Wenbin is short in stature. Although he can't count on heading the ball, he has an advantage over Aotel, Van Buiten, Lucio and others in terms of running flexibility.

Therefore, in the next game, Lu Wenbin began to move continuously through changes in rhythm to create gaps for catching the ball.

This is indeed a lot of physical consumption, but fortunately, Ralph has already started to prepare for this game.

The early replacement of Lu Wenbin in the league and the physical reserve of Lu Wenbin in the usual training, the coaching staff are very attentive, just for this final to give Lu Wenbin enough physical strength to support until 90 minutes, or even the end of the 120-minute game.

Although Lu Wenbin may not be able to play in the next league after the final, as long as there is a chance to win the German Cup, what does it matter if you sacrifice a league?

Lu Wenbin thought so too.

Therefore, in order to get the chance to catch the ball and shoot, Lu Wenbin began to increase the number of runs without the ball without hesitation, so that Autel could only passively chase behind him.

However, although Lu Wenbin stepped up his movement without the ball, he was unable to get any decent shooting opportunities until 20 minutes of the game passed.

On the one hand, Lu Wenbin's suddenly accelerated rhythm change not only made Aotel uncomfortable, but even his own teammates Eduardo, Salihovic and others could not figure out which direction he would run in the next second. The accuracy is naturally reduced a lot.

On the other hand, Bayern Munich's attacking power in the frontcourt is stronger than that of Hoffenheim, and the attacking group composed of Schweinsteiger, Ribery, Kroos, Sousa, and Toni has the attacking power in the whole of Europe. They are all top-notch, let alone in Germany.

Therefore, not only the full-backs and midfielders have almost no chance to move forward to support the offense, but even Copado, Salihovic, and even Eduardo are sometimes forced to withdraw from the backcourt to participate in the defense, allowing Lu Wenbin to obtain pass support. The number of times is much less than the previous Bundesliga games.

Fortunately, Hoffenheim successfully defended Bayern Munich's offense by using the overall help defense and the high-spirited efforts of the players.

Although Bayern almost broke the goal twice, once hit the post, and once was saved by Haas, but after all, no goal was conceded.

However, it is not enough to be beaten passively all the time.

Therefore, Salihovic, Copado, Eduardo and others have been working hard to find opportunities, trying to pass the ball to the front and give Lu Wenbin a chance to hit the goal.

Although I don't know why Lu Wenbin's shot at the door is so perverted, the players at Hoffenheim know that as long as Lu Wenbin is given a chance to shoot in the penalty area, he will be able to score in nine out of ten.

This is also the strength of the Hoffenheim team's strong fighting spirit and the ability to wrestle with Bayern Munich.
