Tuchel has studied Dortmund, and Yebala has naturally also studied Mainz.

Compared with last season, Mainz is like a complete transformation.

Last season, Mainz finally ranked fifth in the southern U19 League and missed the playoffs.

However, they ranked second this season, and squeezed the youth training team Bayern Munich behind and qualified for the playoffs.

What do they rely on?

Very simple, one person.

Last summer, Mainz Club invited a youth training coach named Thomas Tuchel.

This is not an unknown person, but he is still famous in the German youth training world.

Before coming to Mainz, Tuchel coached in the youth teams of two clubs. When he first came to Stuttgart, he studied under Ronnick, who is now leading this small village team to create a half-mile in the Bundesliga. Tuchel led Stuttgart U19 and won the national championship in 2005.

Later he went to the U19 youth team of the Augsburg club where the player morale once played. It was not until 2008, last summer that he came to Mainz to coach Mainz U19.

In just one season, he led this team to the playoffs of the U19 National League, and his ability to train the team is indeed extraordinary.

So what is he relying on?

attack.

Mainz is a team with pretty good defense. They have conceded 26 goals in 26 rounds of the Southern League this season. They are not only the team that conceded the least goals in the entire Southern League, but also the team that conced the least goals among all the teams in the three divisions.

In the southern division last season, although Mainz ranked fifth, he conceded only 27 goals, and he is still the team with the least goals conceded in the southern division.

It can be said that Mainz's defense has a fine tradition.

But relying solely on defense cannot move the team from fifth to second place.

After Tuchel came to this team, she injected offensive passion into the team.

Last season, Mainz only scored forty-three goals in the 26th round of the league, and this goal count was very mediocre.

But what about this season?

Sixty-one goals!

Mainz's goal count is second only to Freiburg, which creates an average of 11 scoring opportunities per game. Freiburg is only 68 more than them.

Tuchel activates Sherle, and Sherle drives the entire team's offense.

In the southern division, Sulle scored 16 goals 22 times at home. He is the team's top scorer. This is his best season in three years at Mainz U19.

So Yebala believes that Mainz is a team that is good at attacking and dares to attack.

Dortmund likes to play the most is a team that is willing to attack, because if both sides play against each other, it means that there will be a lot of space on the court, which is very beneficial for Dortmund to play the fast pass and fast running tactic.

Now, after having a trident, Dortmund dares to play against any team.

Whether it is Schalke 04. or Freiburg.

Therefore, in preparation for the war, Yebala always asked Dortmund to fight Mainz head-on, to attack and then attack, and not to be afraid of making mistakes.

But after the game started, Yebala soon discovered something was wrong. This "quick" didn't even have a minute.

Because when Dortmund took the ball to attack, he found that Mainz's retreat was very, very fast...

It's as fast as if you're not ready to attack at all and just focus on defending.

Just as Dortmund passed the football to the back line, Mainz's players all retreated back to the front of their own penalty area, and the one who was at the forefront was their arrow character Xuerle.

This is not the attitude that Mainz, who plays offensive football, has...

Yebala has studied how Mainz plays football normally and how they run after the opponent kicks off. Naturally, it is clear that it is definitely not like this in front of him.

This sudden abnormal situation made Yebala a little suspicious and a little... vigilant.

※ ※ ※

When Dortmund attacked forward, the speed of passing through the midfield was very fast. Zhou Yi, Gotze and Mark passed through the midfield with two or three passes and hit the front of Mainz's 30-meter area.

Tuchel, sitting on the coach's seat, adjusted her sitting posture, waiting to watch Dortmund, who was like a storm of waves, slapped on Mainz's breakwater, and then shattered into countless water droplets, flying all over the sky, blowing away by the wind.

At that time, Mainz will intercept the ball. The backcourt players will directly hand over the football to Xuerle in the frontcourt and he will fight back.

At this time, Yebala, who had been thinking about Mainz's abnormal behavior, suddenly had a bright light in his eyes.

"Oh..." he blurted out.

The assistant coach next to him said strangely: "What's wrong, Peter?"

"Mainz doesn't plan to fight against us!" Yebala said anxiously.

He knew very well what Mainz was going to do.

This can be fatal to the unprepared Dortmund!

Just like Freiburg didn't expect Dortmund to play the fast pass and fast run tactic with them, he was caught off guard in the German Cup final.

Yebala felt that she was also caught off guard by Tuchel...

※ ※ ※

When Dortmund's offense advanced to the frontcourt, the football fell to Zhou Yi's feet. If it was normal, at this time, Zhou Yi should quickly transfer the football to Mark's feet. Then continue to step forward.

In this case, he and Mark would even be shot to death on Mainz's wall.

But he didn't do that. After receiving the ball, Zhou Yi turned around and passed it back!

The smile on Tuchel's face, waiting for the show, froze. He did not see the scene he wanted to see. This twist surprised him a little.

After Zhou Yi passed the ball, he looked up at the situation in front of him.

Everyone, everyone, everyone, everyone.

This is what Zhou Yi observed in his eyes.

Apart from Mainz players, they are Dortmund's own players. In short, they are all crowded with people.

So it’s not that he doesn’t want to pass the football forward, but he can’t pass it forward.

Mainz built one defense line after another at the front of their penalty area, and the two defense lines were not far apart. At the same time, because the entire team contracted very far behind, they didn't have to worry about the depth behind them being used by Dortmund.

If he passes forward, it is equivalent to giving up the ball. He is not stupid.

Dortmund's fast pass and quick cut tactic is originally very low error tolerance. Once the football is passed, the speed is very fast. A slight mistake will be amplified, which will eventually lead to the failure of the offense.

Mainz's way of building a wall in front of the penalty area greatly compresses the passing space of Dortmund players, and will increase the mistakes of Dortmund players when passing.

If you continue to move on quickly, you will just hand the football to Mainz’s feet without any effort and let the opponent fight back.

So Zhou Yi chose to pass back. At this time, he would rather slow down and give up the tactic of fast pass and run, and he should first make sure to hold the ball.

At this time, don't think about taking risks and getting it straight.

Yebala, who was on the sidelines, saw Zhou Yi suddenly choose to pass back, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Zhou Yi did not play as planned before the game, but suddenly changed the direction of the pass, allowing Dortmund to escape.

He could see that Mainz was waiting for Dortmund to bump into him...

Fortunately, the person who controls the rhythm of many Tymond is Zhou Yi, not someone else, otherwise he would have fallen into the trap...

Zhou Yi almost hit him head-on. If he hadn't had "Hawkeye", he could still see the floor plan of the court while advancing quickly. Through the floor plan, he could understand Mainz's defense position, and at the same time guessed Mainz's defensive strategy.

In the virtual world, Zhou Yi played with this team many times, and Mainz played the most commonly used offensive football style in the season, and it was not the tactic of defending the penalty area at all.

Now it seems that the effect of the simulation competition before the game has been reduced by half.

This is a test for Zhou Yi.

What should he do when he can't familiarize himself with his opponent's tactics through a lot of simulations? As a commander, you can't just rely on various plans to react, right?

An excellent commander is always facing various emergencies. What should he do at this time?

※ ※ ※

Zhou Yi's sudden pass back would of course make the whole Dortmund team slow down, so Zhou Yi did not stand there and secretly said he was lucky, but ran quickly towards his passing target and signaled him to pass the football again.

But Mark, who was waiting in front of him, turned around and found that Zhou Yi didn't pass the football back. It was strange.

"Why did it pass back?" he shouted at Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi waved his hand to his back and had no time to answer him.

But Gotze, who was next to him, answered Mark's confusion: "Look at you, Mark."

Then Mark turned around in confusion and observed, and found that everyone was surrounded by Mainz players.

"I can't pass it forward." Gotze understood. "They shrink their defense."

"Ah...this..." Mark was a little regretful and disappointed.

Didn’t it be agreed before the game that it was against the opponent?

Now it is completely different from what we prepared before the game. What should we do?

He turned his attention to Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi received the ball from his teammates, but he didn't even turn around and passed the ball back again. However, this time he passed it further and directly to the feet of central defender Rasse Sobehe.

After passing the ball, Zhou Yi was still following a Mainz player next to him. He ran straight back, getting further and further away from Mark and the others.

Gotze also ran back, Mark looked around and ran to the midfield with Gotze.

A Jinchek is left in front.
