Step by Step to Win

Chapter 440: Relax

Strictly speaking, this attack by Wolfsburg was not really a sharp counterattack. Although it took a short time from the frontcourt to steal the ball to the backcourt to pass to Mandzukic’s feet, there was nothing particularly surprising about the whole process, whether it was a combined attack in the backcourt, a coordinated attack from the side, or the attraction of a center forward. After the defense, the pass makes the teammates pressure, these are nothing unusual. From a tactical point of view, Wolfsburg's offense is definitely not unusual, and it can even be said that their offense is mediocre, nothing new and special.

But having said that, no matter how plain tactics are, if they are used effectively on the court, they can produce very good results. Although Wolfsburg's offense is simple, it is fast, and it is all about Dortmund's shortcomings. Their offense can also be said to have played a miraculous effect.

In this game, both sides can be said to be disabled. Both of them were on the bench, and they all suffered a lot of trouble. Wolfsburg has lost the ball, and at this moment, Thrall has also made an important mistake. After being bypassed by Mandzukic, he could not keep up in time. Instead, he ran to the goal line, trying to save the ball on the goal line.

This approach made goalkeeper Weidenfeller feel helpless. There is a goalkeeper in front of the goal, but the defender ran to save the ball. This is completely ignorant of his defensive mission. This kid is so inexperienced, it is really unlucky to play with him.

In desperation, Weidenfeller could only choose to attack. He could only rush forward. Want to grab a football at the feet of Mandzukic. Did he not know that Mandzukic's shooting skills are very good, he can shoot a dead corner to make himself helpless. But at this moment, he has no more choices.

He can only gamble that he can block Mandzukic.

However, in the face of his attack, Mandzukic appeared quite calm, he did not rush to shoot, but in front of Weidenfeller. The dribble flashed a step to the side and avoided his attack. He left him behind.

After not playing for two months, Mandzukic was obviously suffocated. He doesn't want to play as simple as it is, he wants to play something interesting. In front of the goal, he passed the goalkeeper. Then, taking a look at Thrall who was standing on the goal line, he pushed the ball out.

In his opinion, this is already an empty door.

He wants to block the goal line, but Mandzukic believes that his shot can completely bypass him.

Mandzukic is quite satisfied with his shooting skills. He believes that his shot from a dead corner can immediately let Wolfsburg get back the score. After not playing for two months, he recovered his disadvantages for Wolfsburg as soon as he played. Such a return is satisfactory enough.

With a kick out, Mandzukic is even ready to celebrate. His hands were raised. Cheers have also mentioned the throat, scored a goal himself, and helped the team save the situation. He seems to have seen it and he has become the team's hero again.

However, his other preparations did not have any problems. Only his push has a problem.

The football rushed towards the blind spot, but the angle was deviated. On the side of the goal post, the football that should have entered the blind spot stuck to the goal post and slid out of the goal!

Facing the empty gate that no one guards, Mandzukic missed it!

Around the court, an unbelievable sigh rang. No one thought that they had been looking forward to Mandzukic's return for a long time, but Mandzukic's return was not a victory, it turned out to be a missed opportunity. Rodriguez and Gao Shunyao tried their best to send the ball to the front court and to his feet, but he actually missed the ball.

The fans think this is incredible. They have always trusted Mandzukic's shooting skills, but who knows, he had a problem at a critical moment. Standing on the court, Gao Shunyao watched Mandzukic's shot, but he had no words. This result was something he didn't expect.

Mandzukic's comeback is also what he has been looking forward to for a long time. He originally thought that after a long period of rest, Mandzukic was already anxious to play and was ready to score for the team. However, he has forgotten that after such a long break, no matter how good a player is, it is impossible to maintain his state. Mandzukic may have recovered physically, but his condition is obviously problematic.

This ball, if he normally does, would definitely not be a problem, but this time it was missed. Obviously, the injury has brought him the impact of his poor state, and this impact, I have not considered it at all. Now Mandzukic is not the thigh of the team, but a player who needs to recover!

And his deviation from this foot almost caused Wolf Castle to suffer the most. Such a determined counterattack didn't even score a goal. For Wolfsburg, the blow was too big.

Looking at his mistake, Mandzukic was almost stunned. He didn't expect that, but he hadn't played for two months and his footwork had been rusty in this field. It was supposed to be a beautiful dead-corner goal that made the opponent unable to cry, but he actually missed the shot.

Mandzukic's heart was filled with endless annoyance. At this time, he was also complaining about why he had to be so cheap. He had already passed the goalkeeper's empty door. But in the end, he also had a problem because of this ball, and he counterattacked, and he completely failed here.

On the court, Mandzukic held his head and was speechless for a long time. He made a big mistake and caused trouble for the team.

Not entering an empty goal is the biggest blow to the morale of a team. After such a blow, a team often loses confidence because it is often unable to set off another attack because it is worried that there will be problems again. If a team has the upper hand in the game, this problem may not be particularly obvious, but in a deadlocked game, if such a good opportunity is missed, it is tantamount to giving up the opportunity to counterattack to the opponent. .

Wolfsburg is now absolutely afraid to say that it completely defeated Dortmund. At this time, it would be strange if Dortmund did not fight back.

On the stadium, Dortmund did not leave Wolfsburg too much time for reflection. When Mandzukic did not enter the door, which caused the morale of Wolfsburg to plummet, Dortmund has quickly launched a counterattack. The football was thrown out by Weidenfeller and fell to Durm on the left. Durm took the ball and ran towards the frontcourt. Without waiting for the opponent's defense to approach, he passed the ball to Kyle in the middle, completing the offensive transition.

Dortmund fought back, not too slow. Kyle got the ball and immediately moved forward with the ball. This is not his strong point, but while Wolfsburg is still in chaos, Dortmund is overwhelmed as a whole, and the threat posed is obviously greater.

The hearts of the Wolfsburg players have been chaotic, and as long as they create a situation where the soldiers are under pressure, their formation will also be chaotic.

Sure enough, just as he expected, his act of dribbling the ball and pressing on made Gustavo immediately rushed over. Facing the opponent's defense, Kyle immediately sent the ball forward and sent it to Royce's feet. Royce got the ball in the middle, he turned around and accelerated at the same time, and rushed towards the position of Wolfsburg.

In front of him, Sha Xin greeted him. But his step forward also made a gap appear behind him. Mkhitaryan took advantage of the gap in time and inserted it behind him. In the farther place, next to the penalty area, Lewand has already started to move away from Kayar, looking for opportunities.

The defense line of Wolfsburg was also torn. Their defense has also been in a hurry. Mkhitaryan and Lewandang stepped forward together, and Royce had two shots, which also made Wolfsburg's defense at a loss.

Who will Royce pass this ball to? This makes it difficult for them to judge. Lewan’s shooting skills are better, but Mkhitaryan’s impact is also very threatening. Which of them is the most terrifying one, for a while also loosened the line of Wolfsburg.

And this looseness is exactly what Royce wants to see. After seeing this looseness, he never thought about passing the ball to anyone. Just above the midfield, Royce suddenly took a long shot at his feet, and the football suddenly flew out, forming a bombardment toward the goal!

The sudden shot completely exceeded Wolf Castle's expectations. Benalio in front of the door hurriedly jumped up, but he was still a step slower. The football was shot by Royce from a long distance and blasted directly to the upper right corner of the goal. With the sound of wind, the football directly formed a goal and hung into the upper corner of the goal!

Just after Wolfsburg's attack was not smooth, Dortmund seized the opportunity and scored the second goal extremely quickly!

Royce's goal ~www.ltnovel.com~ made the fans on the scene clamor once again, and in the midst of the clamor, Gao Shunyao was actually a little quiet.

This is not to say that he still wants to counterattack, behind 0-2, he also realized that this ball I am afraid there is no hope. However, this failure made him a little relieved.

Since this season, the situation of Wolfsburg has been frequent, and the pressure on the players has always been great. After all, the two-line battle is not suitable for the underdogs. This can be regarded as their experience and lessons learned from personal experience. It is very difficult for a team to just admit defeat, at least until this week, they are still thinking about how to persist. But now, after losing to Dortmund, Gao Shunyao also realized that it would make little sense to stick to it.

7 points difference, I'm afraid it will be difficult to catch up. This season's champion, there is really nothing wrong with Wolfsburg. However, this cannot be said to be absolutely bad. After all, without the burden of the league, the players of Wolfsburg can play more easily in many games. In this way, they are also able to play the Champions League wholeheartedly.

They have already won the league championship. And how far can they go in the Champions League? Perhaps this is the most important issue that Wolfsburg should consider next. (To be continued)
