Football: Starting from the Ronaldinho template

Chapter 147 A Game for the Brave! Dazzling Skills! Threading the Needle! The Radiance of the Wolfsburg Twins!
After returning to the locker room.

Dieter Hecking didn't talk much about tactics, after all, he had analyzed Bayern very thoroughly before and repeated the tactics and techniques countless times.

"I remember that Pierre de Coubertin, the father of the Olympic Games, once said: 'What matters in life is not the triumph, but the struggle.'"

"It means very simply: there can only be one general who can return victorious, but everyone needs to fight for their ideals. If a person loses his fighting spirit, then he is not a responsible person."

Dieter Black sat at the round table in the center of the locker room, speaking as if chatting with a friend.

Qin Ming knew the head coach was trying to comfort him, so he stood up and looked at Gustavo, "Luis, I'll need you to cover for me in the second half. Ricardo, you can move up a bit, and we'll work together to break down Bayern's flanks!"

"Okay!" Rodriguez and the other man smiled knowingly.

They still prefer the confident Qin Ming, because that confident and vibrant aura will unconsciously assimilate them.

"OK! Since you have no problems, let's go with the tactics. Qin, you need to increase the frequency of your ball handling, and Kevin needs to follow up in time and look for opportunities."

Dieter Black Gold clapped his hands in satisfaction.

"By the way, based on my many years of coaching experience, when a team has won many championships, it is no longer at 100% performance, but rather at 90% performance."

He sat back down and laughed, "It's like a bottle of soda water; if you unscrew the cap for a while, the gas inside will decrease."

"That's the situation with Bayern right now. They've won too many titles and lost their respect for other teams."

"Today, let's show them that even an ordinary team in their eyes can overthrow the giants' dominance!"

Dieter Black Gold's voice was slightly weathered, yet full of power.

"Defeat Bayern Munich!"

Qin Ming immediately raised his arms and shouted.

In the away team's locker room.

Guardiola was giving the players a lecture; the tactical board was covered with arrows.

"Wolfsburg's defense is still the same old thing. If they want to target our midfield and defense, they will reduce the transition links and send the ball forward directly!"

"Also, we can relax a bit on the defensive end. We need to score again before the 65th minute and try to end this game as soon as possible!"

"Because there's an even more important match waiting for us at the Allianz Arena!"

Guardiola's head, reflecting the light, gave him an air of wisdom.

“Then I will make appropriate forward runs to make up for the lack of wingers, and also allow Thomas to enter the penalty area, which is where his stage truly belongs.”

"I asked Ram."

"No, no, no! You still need to stay on the flank. That kid isn't that simple; he always manages to surprise people."

Guardiola shook his head. "And Wolfsburg's number 14, we have to contain him, otherwise the two of them can create miracles, just like Rio at Camp Nou."

“Okay.” Ram didn’t object.

He was actually quite uneasy. Even if he lost some offensive intensity, as long as he could stabilize the defense on the flanks, it would be fine.

Anyway, they're in the lead now.

Even if we take a step back and assume Wolfsburg scores another goal, the match will end in a draw.

Bayern Munich's goal difference is almost twenty more than Wolfsburg's.

The fifteen-minute break was over quickly.

The players from both sides returned to the pitch, making the stadium noisy again.

"Viewers, welcome back!"

"Wolfsburg and Bayern Munich have switched sides, and the score is now 2-3, with Bayern Munich in the lead!"

"The second half looks set to be even more exciting!"

He Wei explained.

The comment section of the match report on Dongqiudi is already overflowing.
-
[Will Bayern Munich's campaign be delayed from here on out?]
-
[No, what happened to the pride of top-tier clubs? Shouldn't they be playing an attacking style of play?]
-
Pride is nothing compared to the real value of a championship.
-
[You can tell Guardiola has compromised by seeing Lahm stay on the wing; he doesn't want to fight Wolfsburg to the bitter end at such a crucial moment.]
-
[Will Wolfsburg's championship run end here?]
-
All I can say is that I believe it!
-
[45 minutes left. Trust Wolfsburg, trust Qin Ming, trust Ding Ding!]

【.】

The match is already underway at the Volkswagen Stadium.

Wolfsburg didn't control the ball after the kickoff but instead pushed forward.

The losing side has no room to drag things out; they have no choice but to fight with their backs against the wall.

Bayern's tactical intention was clear: to press and defend in midfield to prevent Wolfsburg from getting close to the danger zone.

There weren't many tests.

The two sides quickly got into a heated exchange, and in the 57th minute, Bernat's excessive forward pressure created an opportunity for De Bruyne.

Snap! A sharp through ball cut through Bayern's formation, allowing the advancing Perisic to easily receive the ball.

Seeing this, Rafinha knew he couldn't hesitate any longer. Just as he was about to be beaten, he committed a tactical foul, pulling Persic to the ground.

Beep! The referee awarded a free kick and showed Rafinha a yellow card.

"Well done! Don't give them any chance!"

Guardiola applauded from the sidelines.

Free kicks near the right side are difficult to take, since Wolfsburg doesn't have any left-footed players, so they ended up having to hurl high balls into the penalty area.

But Bayern were well-prepared with their man-marking, and Boateng, with his even stronger physique than his brother, squeezed past Dost and headed the ball out of the penalty area.

"Boateng!!!" Bayern fans chanted Boateng's name.

With him around, Bayern's penalty area is a no-fly zone!

As possession of the ball continued to change hands, Bayern Munich made the first adjustments.

"Guardiola substituted Götze for Müller and Ribery for Bernat. Is he trying to score more goals?"

He Wei was very puzzled.

"The strategy should be to attack to suppress Wolfsburg's attack, forcing them to focus on defense and thus reducing the pressure on their backline."

Liu Jiayuan analyzed.

"Huh! Gustavo intercepted Thiago's pass, Bayern seems a bit weak!"

"Is this a lingering effect of the match against Barcelona a few days ago?"

He Wei immediately perked up and looked down at the green field.

After regaining possession, Gustavo immediately passed the ball to De Bruyne, their playmaker.

But Xabi Alonso kept pace.

Regardless of whether you can get the ball or not, at least make your game uncomfortable.

This is exactly what a defensive midfielder should be doing.

"How annoying!" De Bruyne couldn't find any openings, and his teammates were all tightly marked, so he could only pass the ball back to Maranda.

Time was wasted on such ineffective attacks.

Bayern no longer focused on possession; as long as Wolfsburg didn't enter the danger zone, they leisurely adjusted their defense.

The 67th minute of the game.

Qin Ming dropped back to midfield to receive the ball, and this time he chose to take it himself.

Because his teammates lacked the ability to make consecutive breakthroughs.

Since he has it, then we should do it!
In front of him, Ram stood firm, blocking the outside line.

The inside players were guarded by Thiago, who had dropped back.

There seemed to be no room for breakthrough, but Qin Ming knew that space was created, and there would never be any space if he stayed still.

Seeing Qin Ming lean to one side, Ram immediately shifted her center of gravity accordingly.

He is not afraid of being deceived.

As long as Qin Ming dares to break through, he is confident that he can hold the position.

But why didn't the ball move?

Ram was filled with doubt, and then alarm bells rang in her mind. She looked down to see clearly.

But the football was blocked by Qin Ming's body.

"coming!"

Qin Ming had been waiting for this moment. He took control of the ball by moving the inside of his right foot forward, his body twisting as if into a pretzel.

At the moment of approaching Ram.

The point of contact with the ball smoothly transitions from the inside to the outside!

The football traced an unpredictable trajectory on the grass, leaving Lahm unable to react.

The fans at the scene couldn't see anything clearly. All they saw was Qin Ming using dreamlike footwork, displaying dazzling footwork skills, and showcasing his extreme flexibility, fully demonstrating his agility and dynamism.

When people awoke from their reverie, they discovered that Ram had already been killed.

Whoosh! The entire stadium erupted in a cacophony of noise, causing the decibel level to spike dramatically.

Near the sideline on the coaching bench, Guardiola's pants pocket was ripped, and he stared at Qin Ming in disbelief.

Why does this scene feel so familiar?

Threading a needle in a cross shape!

Ronaldinho used it before.

Fortunately, Thiago got back in time to defend, so he should be able to stop it, right?

Guardiola felt a moment of relief, because he saw Qin Ming's dribble pass bypass Thiago, who rushed forward to intercept.

"Foul, you idiot!"

Guardiola couldn't help but curse out loud.

On the field, Qin Ming listened to the cheers around him, and his body seemed to be filled with energy again. He strode towards Bayern's penalty area with his long legs.

At the same time, he also used his peripheral vision to observe what was ahead.

Benatia kept retreating, Boateng marked Dost closely, and Persic was positioned further back.

De Bruyne!

Even though Ding Ding wasn't fast enough, he gritted his teeth and kept up, right at the edge of his field of vision.

In an instant, Qin Ming made a decision, abruptly reducing his dribbling speed.

"He's going to cut inside, guard against his shot!"

Benatia shouted at Boateng.

Upon hearing this, Boateng gestured for Rafinha to look at Dost, while he himself stepped forward fiercely.

If he can't stop Messi, can't he stop Qin Ming?
"Kevin, catch!"

Qin Ming had managed to get past Ram and his opponent twice in a row, but he was starting to struggle.

But he was never fighting alone.

Thud! The ball was passed across to the edge of the penalty area, not particularly fast.

Just enough for De Bruyne to make a run from behind.

Boateng quickly changed direction, but De Bruyne had already taken a shot.

He never pursues power in his shots, but rather the ultimate angle, thrusting his right foot out with a powerful push.

Bang! The football bent the green grass and pierced the Bayern goal like a sharp blade.

Neuer chose his position very well, and his body was relaxed; he could even feel the touch on his fingertips.

chap!
The next second, the football grazed his fingertips, hit the inside of the right post, and bounced over the goal line.

3-3! ! !

"Great! Wolfsburg has scored again, leveling the score!"

"Qin Ming! He used his agile and dynamic skills to make Ram unable to make effective predictions, causing him to lose his advantageous defensive position!"

"Not only that, he also got past Thiago and passed the ball to De Bruyne!"

"De Bruyne did not disappoint him either, using an extremely tricky shot to pry open Neuer's defenses!"

"The Wolfsburg twin stars are shining brightly at this moment!"

He Wei thought Qin Ming was incredibly charming.

why?
What makes football so captivating isn't dribbling skills, but the heroism they evoke.

When your team is in a stalemate, you single-handedly break through the deadlock.

This is so exciting to see.

"Jaaaa!!!" In the stands of the Volkswagen Stadium, the waves of people and cheers surged wildly. The Wolfsburg fans were flushed and cheering so hard that they could hardly breathe.

On the pitch, De Bruyne no longer celebrated at a neighborhood level; his baby face was full of excitement as he sprinted toward the corner flag and slid down to his knees.

This time, there were no unexpected events.

After all, we had practiced many times before, and the court was quite damp today.

After a smooth sliding knee slide, De Bruyne got up, clenched his fists and waved them a few times, still making up for the neighborhood-level celebration.

"Kevin!"

Qin Ming jumped onto De Bruyne, grinning broadly and laughing heartily.

Who says he lost the courage to break through again after being dispossessed by Lahm? His best song is "Courage"!
"Qin! That dribbling move just now was really beautiful. I don't think I could ever do that kind of movement in my life, crossing my right leg over my left leg and making that kind of motion."

De Bruyne praised it.

"Haha! Your shot was beautiful too!"

Qin Ming jumped off De Bruyne's back and pointed to the bottom right corner of Bayern's goal, "Even the world's best goalkeeper couldn't stop the two of us!"

Neuer was furious when he saw Qin Ming pointing at him.

He is a proud man.

But in the past week, they have conceded three goals to Barcelona and three goals to Wolfsburg.

What's the difference between this and a sieve?
Even though Bayern faces strong opponents, people won't focus on those; instead, they'll blame the goalkeeper.

"Man-to-man surveillance—"

Neuer was about to complain when Lahm interrupted him, "Let's pretend the game has just started and score another goal!"

Ram didn't bring up her problem again, as it was pointless.

The game has now reached its most crucial moment.

Both teams were on edge, and whoever scored first had the best chance of winning, because the opponent's momentum would dissipate.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

On the sidelines, Thorn Lockhoff raised his hand in a battle cry, shouting at the top of his lungs for several seconds before hugging Dieter Hecking excitedly and saying, "Boss, I'll remember this game for the rest of my life, no matter if we win or lose!"

"Yes! I will remember this for the rest of my life as a coach of such a team and such players."

Dieter Black's gaze swept over the Wolfsburg players.

Among the 11 players on the green field, there are dazzling stars and ordinary pebbles.

But with their love for football and their desire for victory, they quickly grew and improved themselves in each match and training session.

Ultimately, they became heroes who could stand up in adversity.

Dieter Black gazed at Qin Ming and De Bruyne walking side by side, "These two promising young men will write their own legendary stories sooner or later."

He firmly believed this.

Then he glanced at Guardiola next door, the world-class coach holding his head, completely unaware that his trouser pocket was ripped open, revealing a huge tear.

Even the usually impeccably dressed Guardiola has had his share of wardrobe malfunctions.

It's really amazing.

Dieter Black Gold chuckled twice.

Guardiola, once a top midfielder, noticed the strange looks from the crowd and then realized that his thigh felt cold.

It crashed again?
The suits from Stone Island are of such terrible quality!

I'll never wear it again!
Guardiola returned to his seat, took off his suit jacket and covered his legs with it, and told his assistant coach, "Have them strengthen the midfield defense. There are less than 12 minutes left in the game. We need a draw!"

Faced with the Champions League semi-final three days later and the pressure of winning the Bundesliga title, he finally chose to compromise.

“Great!” Hermann-Grand also felt that this was the best solution at present.

Bayern Munich are truly out of options. They used both of their substitutions, but not only did they fail to make any changes, Wolfsburg managed to equalize the score.

This completely disrupted Guardiola's plans.

Guardiola looked deeply at Qin Ming, and regret welled up in his heart once again.

"It's all Eric Ten Hach's fault!"

He cursed inwardly.

Meanwhile, in the away stands above him, a middle-aged man wearing a hoodie sneezed for no apparent reason.
