It's said that the chapter was sent incorrectly, Old Chen almost lost his soul. At noon, he rushed back to work hastily and fortunately was able to make corrections, otherwise Old Chen would really owe an apology to all the brothers!! There will be updates tonight!!
This was once absolutely the most vicious curse in the world!
I was once the world's most outstanding left-back, and at that time I could single-handedly run through the entire left flank, unstoppable in both offense and defense, with no one able to shake my authority!
I was once one of the best players in the world, I once won with my team the greatest achievement in this world, we once stood together at the top of the world, overlooking all living things!
I used to be a fighter who couldn't die on the field, I used to...
But all these have dissipated with time, and now I can only pursue those irretrievable past in memories.
By November 9th, I will be 37 years old. At my age, there are not many players who can continue to stay on the football field. I have made preparations to leave, but as the head coach said, I am not very willing to give up yet!
The current Kaiserslautern is a young and vibrant team, the players are all very talented, years of playing experience tell me that they all have the potential to become top stars, because their progress speed is absolutely astonishing, they can definitely help Kaiserslautern return to the top of the Bundesliga.
It's precisely because of this that I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled to the fact that when my most beloved team reaches the pinnacle of glory, Andre Hahn's name is not on the roster; I'm not reconciled to the fact that when I witnessed the team being relegated, the vow I made to see him return to the top with my own eyes remains unfulfilled; I'm not reconciled...
I have too many regrets, so I must persevere, I must hold on! Absolutely cannot let myself fall down!
The boss is right, this is a life-and-death match. Whoever can't hold on and falls down first will lose!
I absolutely cannot let myself become a burden on the team!
Bremmer's face was covered in sweat, trying hard to stand up straight, but found that his waist involuntarily arched down, and his two legs kept trembling. Sweat kept coming out of the pores, feeling a bit chilly.
This is a sign of physical collapse!
But when he looked towards the sidelines, Yang Cheng made an inquiring gesture towards him, but he still stubbornly shook his head and squeezed out a smile to indicate that he could still hold on, but in fact this series of actions were all done with gritted teeth.
He's on his last breath!
With this breath, he didn't want to leave the court, he wanted to vent it on his opponent!
In this way, use your own practical actions to tell your teammates that as long as you still have a breath left, you must fight bravely against the enemy! Even if you want to leave, you must choose the most manly and dignified way to leave this stadium!
Yang Cheng on the sidelines watched with a direct head, he was very clear that Bremer's physical ability was no longer good, but he did not easily make the move to substitute him off the court, because the latter still defended Zickler.
It was an indescribable feeling, as if what was supporting Bremmer wasn't his body, but the willpower in his soul, so even when his technical movements were severely deformed, he could still defend against Zickler time and time again.
Trapattoni's tactics were on the right track, even in the second half, he still chose to attack Bremer's left flank, he still chose to trust Zickler, he wanted to use Zickler's repeated attacks to exhaust Bremer's physical strength and force Kaiserslautern to make mistakes.
For Bremer, Trapattoni gave enough importance, Schaull and Zickler two on one, because the Italians were well aware of Bremer's style, so he had to use this way to drag down the old general, but he still underestimated Bremer's willpower.
"Christian, warm up!" Yang Cheng shouted without turning his head.
Chi Wu didn't know when he arrived at Yang Cheng's side, watching Bremmer use a slide tackle on the field, knocking down Zickler and struggling to get up, the whole process was very slow, but he looked unusually resolute, even refusing his teammates' support.
He leaned on himself, slowly getting up from the court, even though his legs were trembling and could hardly support his body weight, but he still chose to grit his teeth and persevere.
"Head, I'm ready!" Qi Wu shouted with reddened eyes.
Yang Cheng grabbed Qi Wu with one hand, pointing to the field, "Kid, wait for you to go up, remember this man, remember his shadow, remember that fighting spirit, you must defend the left road for me!" He almost shouted with gritted teeth.
"Alright, I guarantee it, Captain! I won't let the opponent cross our left defense line even if I die!"
Yang Cheng, it's time for him to be replaced! Paul Maher was also watching from the side and was sweating coldly.
But Yang Cheng still gritted his teeth, shaking his head, at this moment he was thinking of one thing, to make Bremmer complete, let him fight like a man until the end, even if this game lost, he would still do so!
Only in this way can he be worthy of the name of the old general!
Bayern launched another wave of offense, and Yi still chose the left route. Shaoer and Zickler cooperated, Bremer tightly wrapped around Zickler. When he saw Shaoer pass the ball over, he gritted his teeth and rushed out, wanting to cut off the ball in advance, but unexpectedly, his right foot softened, and he slipped to the ground.
Even so, he chose to lift his foot and just in time to flick the ball down, and Gatuzo immediately cleared the ball out of bounds with a big kick.
"Andres!" Kiel immediately sensed something was off behind him and quickly followed.
"Oh my god, captain!" Gatusso and others also rushed over. The players of Kaiserslautern all rushed up instantly, even Bayern's on-field captain Matthaus, Helmer and other old acquaintances also rushed up with concern.
"Are you alright, Andres?" Matt Birdos was sweating profusely but looked concerned.
Braemer lay motionless on the ground, his whole body soft and weak, without a hint of strength. However, in his open eyes, there was an unusual sparkle, and a satisfied smile spread across the corners of his mouth.
The team doctor came and examined Bremer's condition, no physical contact, no injury, just a collapse of physical strength.
Braemer painfully tore the captain's armband off his own left arm, but instead of handing it over to deputy captain Kosch, he handed it directly to Barack and patted Barack's hand tightly holding the captain's armband.
"I'm going down, it's up to you now!..."
Barack's eyes suddenly turned red, nodding constantly, and said in a trembling voice: "I won't let you down!"
Braemer nodded and then looked at Nedved beside him and nodded.
The Czechs were also red-eyed, but squeezed out a stiff smile "Don't go to the locker room, Andres, wait by the field, we'll celebrate the victory with you"
Bremen smiled, he thought the team's spiritual will closest to himself was Nedved and Ballack, but the former saw that foreign aid could not become the team captain, however Ballack could.
Brehme slowly stretched out his left hand, the surrounding players immediately one after another stretched out their hands, tightly grasped together, and then the old general signaled to the team doctor "to put him on a stretcher and leave the field".
As he passed by Yang Cheng's side, Yang Cheng walked forward.
"Sorry, boss... Please forgive me for being so willful..."
Yang Cheng smiled slightly, "No, Andres, you have stirred up the fighting spirit of our players! We will definitely win this game!"
"Shall I go back to the dressing room then?" Bremer chuckled.
Yang Cheng shook his head, "No need." In just over a minute, we'll be celebrating our victory. Will you make it in time?
"Never mind, I'll just sit by the side then..."
The two of them exchanged a glance and burst out laughing.
Zhi Wu replaced Braham on the field and played as the team's left-back.
This young Romanian defender is highly valued by Yang Cheng, and after joining the team, he was arranged to follow Bremer to learn, and then Yang Cheng used three times the growth acceleration scroll to improve his strength.
Left foot, not tall, with excellent physical quality, Bremer saw his own youthful shadow in Zhiwu's body.
In Yang Chen's plan, although Koscielny has excellent defensive skills, his position in the three-back system is not satisfactory for Yang Chen, whether it's in the middle or on the left or right. Plus, with Lucio being the best option for the right center back, the future three-back combination will be Qi Wu, Kyle and Lucio.
The reason why Kehl was chosen in the middle is that this central defender, apart from his outstanding defensive ability, also has excellent skills. When attacking, he can make timely insertions, undertake necessary organization and coordination tasks. As for the left and right center-backs, Ze Roberto and Lucio, both have the ability to make insertions, especially the latter, who is particularly skilled at bringing the ball forward.
The full-back's forward runs can suddenly break the balance on the field, so Yang Chen attaches great importance to Lucio and Qi Wu. Klose's speed makes it impossible for him to have the ability to make forward runs, plus his technique, making it difficult for him to meet the requirements of a central defender. Therefore, slowly but surely, Yang Chen will let Lucio replace Klose when reforming the defense line.
After Chi Wu replaced Bramer on the field, the game resumed.
As soon as he came on stage, Qi Wu used a fierce shovel to directly knock down Shao Er, clean and neat, without fouling.
The Romanian youngster made a stunning debut and then also defended very maturely against Zickler and Sauer, speed is not his strong point, so he learned from Bremer to compensate for the lack of speed with positioning and anticipation, and behind him there was an increasingly stable and majestic Keel, Bayern Munich's offense was frozen again.
"Under-17s Christy Uwakwe and Sebastian K?ser, 17-year-old Kelechi Iheanacho, plus 19-year-olds Lucio and Luis Holtkamp - the young defensive line of Kaiserslautern is endless and every player has shown great strength!"
After seeing Ziwu's performance, even the live commentator couldn't help but marvel at Yang Cheng's coaching of his players.
At the age of 17 and 18, players in this age group may lack experience and awareness even if they have excellent skills, but Kaiserslautern's young players have shown astonishing maturity.
If Kehl is ready to establish himself this season, then Ze Roberto's performance will be a highlight, he was the left center back that Yang Chen insisted on introducing last summer and will definitely be reused, plus Lucio who has accumulated experience for a whole season.
It's not just the backline, even in midfield, the oldest is Nedved, who will turn 25 this season, Schneider is 24, Bellon is 22, Barak and Van Nistelrooy are 21, Dahl-Jensen is 20, and Gattuso is 19. The entire Kaiserslautern team is undergoing a vigorous youth reform in just over a year.
However, Yang Cheng is not blindly pursuing youth, he is targeted, if the board of directors did not intervene this season, Lutz and Kaderabek would still be left behind, Wagner would also be left by Yang Cheng, at that time the team will form a good age layer configuration, under the condition of ensuring the team's vitality, experience and competitiveness will not be affected too much.
It's just like the current central defender combination, Yang Cheng values Qi Wu, Kyle and Lucio, but he will never arrange for three young players to join forces. At least these three are not yet capable of coping with major tournaments, so he used Bremer and Kosch, old bringing new, which gives young people a chance to train and can guarantee the team's results.
This pattern will continue this season, and Kosc is only 27 years old, in his golden age, he will be the mainstay of Yang's defense line.
This player joined Kaiserslautern from a small village team, SV, in the fourth tier in summer 1995. The highlight of his previous career was in the first round of the German Cup in the 94/95 season, where he led his team to a surprise victory over Bayern Munich with a score of 1:0.
Since joining Kaizerslautern, every time he encounters Bayern, Koschy has been able to perform exceptionally. This game was no exception, and he almost showed the strength of a needle that calms the sea. Steady and seasoned, Janker couldn't gain any advantage over him.
After Kuschke suppressed Yanker, his partner also became more casual, previously Bremer, now Zhiwu, and the Kaiser's defense line became solid.
This is where the importance of veteran generals comes in!
The solid defense line allows Kaiserslautern to invest more troops in the offense.
With Gatusso as a dedicated defender, plus the positional requirements and proactive participation in organization and response from Kiel, Bayern's midfield pressure was very strong, maintaining constant pressure on Bayern's midfield.
Trapattoni's defensive counterattack was indeed sharp, but that was based on the premise of being able to counterattack. The midfield and frontcourt were suppressed, Jankel was locked down in the frontcourt, Bayern's defensive counterattack was difficult to play, unable to organize an effective counterattack, with only Zeckler as a counterattacking weapon, but no use, like a gun without bullets.
Looking at Kaiserslautern, they controlled the game and maintained pressure in midfield, constantly creating opportunities, especially after Bremer was substituted out. Yang Chen quickly replaced Schneider with Larsson, and Belon moved to the right flank as a wing forward, which is also his position in the Argentine domestic league.
But for Kaiserslautern at this moment, the positional boundaries are no longer important, just like Bellon, who seems to be on the right road, but in fact he is more likely to return to the middle road. Gattuso is sprinting all over the court, while Keir is a central defender, but he is equivalent to a defensive midfielder. Nedved frequently shuttles back and forth between the left and middle roads.
Bayern Munich's defense is indeed excellent, with two defensive midfielders plus the backline, and the team's three lines of retreat, doing a great job in limiting space, so Kaiserslautern players can only find gaps to exploit.
As a result, it has become a seemingly disorderly yet actually very orderly running state.
Yang Chen watched from the sidelines as Bremer came off, the players' running and coordination on the field, he really had an urge to shout loudly, because he saw almost the most brilliant running segment since he coached Kaiserslautern, whether it was the back line, midfield or forward, every player's running was aimed at the loopholes in Bayern's defensive system.
They complement each other, echo each other from afar, and pass the ball very smoothly. Because running creates space, creates opportunities, and increases passing options, reduces mistakes, and increases threats, all of which are directly proportional!
"We will definitely win this game!" Yang Cheng suddenly burst with confidence!
Paul, Bayer on the side also looked at with a face of surprise, because he understood Yang Cheng's tactics, knew that the team's current kick was already very close to Yang Cheng's requirements for them, and the players finally began to integrate the essence of Yang Cheng's tactics.
"After going back, we must edit all the videos of the last 10 minutes of the game from various angles and let the players study and familiarize themselves with them repeatedly!" Yang Cheng was very satisfied with the team's overall performance in the final moments of this match. He believed that this was absolutely the peak state that this Kaiserslautern team could achieve at present.
Paul, Beyer and others apparently also strongly agree with this.
"My god, Kaiserslautern completely dominated Bayern Munich in terms of momentum, tactics and the overall situation. The latter could only barely withstand the impact of Kaiserslautern's offense each time, but the Red Devils' attack seemed to be wave after wave, showing no signs of weakening."
"It's best if Trapatonni can adjust and make substitutions to turn the situation around as soon as possible, otherwise this game is going to be a tough one for Bayern to get out of!"
Sometimes football matches are like this, when one side's advantage accumulates to a certain extent, scoring is just a matter of time!
It's hard to describe this advantage, it can only be felt through experience. The more you watch football, the more you'll understand what I mean.
In a game where one side completely overwhelms the opponent but fails to gain an advantage, this feeling will not be obvious, because the dominant side must have made mistakes in some aspect.
To put it in a famous phrase, as long as one game can create 15 scoring opportunities for the players, even if the opposing goalkeeper is a god, even if it's an amateur player, they can still score goals, and even multiple goals.
Yang Chen has this feeling now, and as the end of the game approaches, this feeling becomes stronger. The players on the field are more and more invested in the game, running and passing the ball more smoothly. Bayern was almost suffocated in their own half of the court.
In this case, as long as Bayern's iron back line has a slight crack, Kaiserslautern's tidal wave-like offense can sweep in from the crack and completely destroy this impregnable iron castle!
