Seven Crowns

Next, Hoffenheim began to change tactics. Eduardo, Salihovic, and Pargic no longer passed all offensive opportunities to Lu Wenbin, and Lu Wenbin completed the final blow.

Given the opportunity, they can also shoot themselves!

In the 35th minute, after Salihovic made a fake pass to Lu Wenbin, he smashed the ball and prepared to break through from the opposite direction. Bernish, who lost his focus, had no choice but to pull Salihovic down with a tactical foul.

Bernish received a yellow card and also gave Hoffenheim a free kick.

However, Lu Wenbin's free kick missed the goal.

In the 38th minute, Eduardo and Salihovic completed an exquisite two-to-one match outside the penalty area, and Eduardo entered the penalty area and kicked the door.

The ball had already escaped the save of goalkeeper Wiese, but it slammed into the goal post, bounced back into the field, and was cleared out of the penalty area by full-back Naldo with a big foot.

Although the goal did not score, it also made the Werder Bremen team nervous.

Obviously, Hoffenheim has discovered Bremen's strategy of focusing on marking Lu Wenbin and adjusted the focus of the attack.

For a while, Werder Bremen's back line also began to become unstable.

However, fortunately the aggregate score is leading Bremen, they have the upper hand.

Therefore, the three midfielders Ozil, Cunha and Frings can often step back to participate in the defense and stop Hoffenheim's attack.

From the change of tactics to the 44th minute, Lu Wenbin did not get a chance to kick the goal except for a free kick that did not score and a few ordinary passes and receptions from outside the penalty area.

Therefore, Bremen gradually became a little paralyzed and relaxed the marking on Lu Wenbin.

As a result, in the 45th minute, Lu Wenbin, who was originally on the wing, suddenly turned away from Bowman and went straight into the penalty area. Pargic passed the ball in time. Lu Wenbin made a non-stop shot while running. The gesture caused a burst of tension in Bremen.

Not only was Pledel, who was closely following Lu Wenbin, pulling Lu Wenbin all the time, but also another central defender, Mertesacker and full-back Nardo, who also left other Hoffenheim players and rushed towards Lu Wenbin. Nervously, he rushed towards the near end of Lu Wenbin's goal.

Everyone thought that Lu Wenbin would shoot as long as he touched the ball, so he tried his best to save and block the hole.

However, after Lu Wenbin's foot fell, he did not shoot, but stabilized his body and shook his ankle, passing the ball to the other side of the penalty area.

Eduardo, who cooperated with tacit understanding, appeared on the path of the ball, pushed the ball without stopping, and scored the ball into the goal.

Weizer, who returned, was out of reach and could only watch the ball go into the net.

In the last minute before the end of the first half, Hoffenheim was assisted by Lu Wenbin and Eduardo scored a goal to tie the score at 1-1, with a total score of 3-3, and Hoffenheim had the advantage of away goals. , the game situation is biased towards Hoffenheim's side.

Hoffenheim celebrated for a while before the game resumed.

However, before Werder Bremen completed a complete attack, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half.

At halftime, Ralph made a more detailed tactical arrangement.

Because the situation is favorable for Hoffenheim, Hoffenheim still has to try their best to stabilize the back line in the second half and try not to let the opponent score.

At the same time, the attack must be flexible.

Just like the last period of the first half, Lu Wenbin had no chance to break through and shoot by Eduardo and others.

Lu Wenbin passed it to Lu Wenbin when he had a chance, but Lu Wenbin felt that when the chance of scoring a goal was low, he could attract the attention of the opponent and then pass the ball to other players to complete the goal.

On the other hand, Schaff could only continue to let the players stare at Lu Wenbin.

Even if he knew that the opponent knew his tactics and made targeted arrangements, he couldn't change it, because Lu Wenbin's threat was too great.

Schaff can only ask the players to strengthen their running, and the midfielders have to retreat to participate in the defense. and,

Because the situation is not good for Bremen, the midfielder is also responsible for the attack.

This requires a lot of running ability, but Schaff has no choice but to arrange it like this. Whether the players can complete it is not under his control.

After a fifteen-minute rest, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Werder Bremen, who was at a disadvantage, could only continue to attack, but the backcourt also gave Hoffenheim more opportunities.

In addition, two or three people are required to mark Lu Wenbin, and Eduardo and others have more opportunities.

Within the first 20 minutes of the second half, Eduardo, Salihovic and Baker had three consecutive chances to kick the ball, one of which was within the range of the goal frame and almost formed a goal.

So, everyone unconsciously relaxed their vigilance against Lu Wenbin and focused on Eduardo and others.

But in fact Hoffenheim's tactics are flexible.

Seeing that Lu Wenbin's defensive pressure was reduced and there was a chance to catch the ball, Eduardo and others passed the ball to Lu Wenbin again.

In the 69th minute, Lu Wenbin received a pass from Salihovic with Pledel and Baumanka behind him in the penalty area.

Then Lu Wenbin turned around and hit the goal. Not only did he continue to firmly attract the attention of the two of Bowman, but even the goalkeeper Weizer was nervously moved to the near end of the goal by Lu Wenbin.

As a result, Lu Wenbin knocked the ball with his heel after completing the half turn and passed the ball across the middle of the penalty area.

Center Pargic grabbed the shot before Mertesacker cleared the siege and swept Lu Wenbin's good heel pass into the goal.

Lu Wenbin scored two assists and Hoffenheim also led Werder Bremen with a score of 2-1 and a total score of 4-3.

Bremen blocked Lu Wenbin's shot, but he couldn't prevent him from assisting his teammates after attracting the opponent's attention.

After the total score is behind, Bremen had to strengthen the attack.

Now they only need to score a goal to not only tie the aggregate score, but also wipe out Hoffenheim's away-goal advantage, dragging the game into extra time or even a penalty shootout.

On the Hoffenheim side, they also felt unsafe with the 2-1 score, and they continued to pursue goals when they had the chance.

Lu Wenbin, who scored twice with assists, was naturally the focus of Bremen's defense, allowing Eduardo and others to gain a lot of offensive opportunities.

However, their shot accuracy is indeed too far off.

In the next 10 minutes, Salihovic and Pargic each had a shot, but they failed to hit the goal frame.

The biggest threat to Hoffenheim is Lu Wenbin.

Therefore, in the 82nd minute, when Lu Wenbin took a shot after receiving a pass from Salihovic, it once again caused tension in the entire back line of Werder Bremen, and goalkeeper Weizer was attracted to the near end by Lu Wenbin.

As a result, Lu Wenbin passed the ball upside-down in the same way, and Gustavo, who suddenly inserted, shot a long-range shot from the top of the penalty area and smashed the ball into the goal.

Lu Wenbin did not score or break the record under Werder Bremen's three-player defense strategy, but he completed a hat-trick of assists, helping the team lead Werder Bremen 3-1 with a total score of 5-3. The victory is locked.

In the next few minutes, Werder Bremen launched a Jedi counterattack and scored a goal in the 91st minute of stoppage time, but to no avail.

In the end, Hoffenheim defeated Werder Bremen with a total score of 3-2 at home and 5-4 in two rounds and advanced to the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup this season.

Many people were disappointed that Lu Wenbin did not score a goal or break a record, but the performance of assisting a hat-trick still made people amazed at his performance.

In addition to scoring goals, Lu Wenbin can also use his attractiveness to create opportunities for other teammates and assist them to score.

This is much harder to defend than a simple goal machine.

Even if other opponents learn from Werder Bremen and completely block Lu Wenbin's goal with three-man marking, it is estimated that the team will be difficult to win.

Because there are other people in Hoffenheim, Lu Wenbin can also assist.

Lu Wenbin has completed the nuclear weapons on the court to break the balance, making it impossible for the opponent to start.
