In the home team's dressing room before the game, Hertha Berlin coach Carsten Heine did not speak for a long time.
After a long time, he slowly spoke out his thoughts.
"Guys, you must execute my request accurately in this game - retreat across the board and strive for a tie!"
After hearing what Hai Nei said, several offensive players on the team frowned.
"Coach, we still don't understand. Today we are just facing a relegation team. Are we so cautious?"
"What, a relegation team?" Heine snorted, a little dissatisfied, "At this point, do you still think Cottbus is just a relegation team? Do you think their championship declaration is just a joke, just Yunsheng Was it a slip of the tongue? They have great ambitions this season!"
"Just looking at their main lineup, Hildebrand, Sauer, Adriano, Cassano... these players are all top players in the Bundesliga. They deserve to compete for the Bundesliga championship! And they have now won eight They have a winning streak, and I definitely can’t let them get nine consecutive wins here!”
"Everyone must strictly implement my arrangements before the game! If a goal is lost due to carelessness in this game, I will never allow it! Remember, you have to play Cottbus as an opponent like Bayern today!"
The players of the two teams were accepting the coach's final arrangements in the locker room. At this time, in the live broadcast room, Schroeder and Haesl were also predicting the trend of the game.
Schroeder looked at the Cottbus starting list in his hand and nodded repeatedly: "4-4-2 formation, goalkeeper Hildebrand, defenders from left to right are Waksmut, Kukielka, Da Silva and Ipsa, the four midfielders from left to right are Shao Jiayi, Li Tie, Sauer and Yu Hai, and the forwards are Adriano and Cassano. The seven substitute players are: Trey Merle, Fick, Cvetanovic, Lyle Hill, Rost, Shaheen and Tretko.”
"Cottbus has a complete starting lineup and is in excellent form recently, so I think they have a great chance of winning this game. Haesl, what do you think?"
Haesl, who has always disliked Cottbus, had just talked to the audience about Yunsheng’s declaration of winning the championship: “Yunsheng actually said the declaration of winning the championship. He really overestimated his capabilities! Even if Cottbus won Eight consecutive wins in the league does not mean that they are qualified to compare with teams like Bayern, Schalke 04, and Werder Bremen. I guess Cottbus will return with a big defeat in this game!"
Schroeder shook his head: "Man, you can't be black just for the sake of being black. Cottbus has been in great shape recently. It's too unreliable for you to say that they will lose..."
Haesl said with a serious face: "I definitely didn't do black for the sake of being black this time, because Cottbus definitely doesn't have an advantage in this game. The away disadvantage and the pressure of public opinion are all disadvantages for Cottbus. But their biggest problem is that the team’s physical condition is not very good.”
"They just experienced a week of double matches. In the midweek game, the main players such as Sauer, Shao Jiayi, and Adriano all got the opportunity to play, especially Sauer and Shao Jiayi, who played full games. It’s definitely a big problem for this game.”
"Although Cottbus has had a good start to the season, they do not have the experience of double matches a week and are not good at physical adjustment. In addition, their bench is not deep enough. This game will definitely be a comeback due to physical reasons."
After listening to these analyses, Schroeder couldn't help but nod: "Well, that makes sense. Cottbus will indeed encounter a lot of trouble in this game."
As the two chatted, the game had already begun.
The referee blew the whistle and Cottbus kicked off first!
"Cottbus attacked with all their strength at the beginning! Sauer controlled the midfield and cooperated with Li Tie, and the ball passed to Shao Jiayi's feet."
"Shao Jiayi's forward route was blocked. He did not force forward, but chose to move in a large area!"
"Yu Hai on the right side of the penalty area received the ball! After stopping the ball, he passed the ball! Adriano headed the ball towards the goal! Under the interference of Simunic, the ball flew away!"
"In this game, Simunic, who is 1.95 meters tall, is marking Adriano. His body is not at a disadvantage!"
"Hertha Berlin controlled the ball in the middle and wanted to stabilize the situation. The ball was intercepted by Li Tie!"
"They lost several midfielders in the summer. Basturk moved to Stuttgart and Dejaga went to Wolfsburg. Therefore, Hertha Berlin's midfield strength has obviously dropped a lot!"
"Li Tie did not stick to the ball after intercepting it, but handed the ball to Sauer. Sauer made a precise through ball and the ball was handed to Cassano's feet! He had a chance to score a goal. This is a goal. Good opportunity!"
"Friedrich fell to the ground to make a tackle and the ball was intercepted! This excellent German international made Cassano come back in vain!"
"Today Hertha Berlin deployed a 5-4-1 formation. The combination of unknown defenders is definitely at the top level of the Bundesliga. Whether Friedrich, Simunic, Shahed or Walschlag, they are all Bundesliga players. One defender after another. Hertha Berlin's offensive ability is very poor this season. The reason why they are ranked in the middle of the Bundesliga is entirely due to the excellent performance of the defense."
"In the first ten minutes, Cottbus has already had three chances to attack. Hertha Berlin is fully defensive today. Except for one forward, they are all outside their own half. It seems that they are planning to keep a tie today. .”
On the coaching bench at this time, Sumad was very excited, and Sandel also looked happy.
If we keep playing like this, it will only be a matter of time before we score.
But Yun Sheng, who was sitting in the middle, frowned.
Things are not going well!
According to his considerations, because the media is hyping up his declaration of winning the championship, and this is Hertha Berlin's home court, most of the domestic players will choose to attack with all their strength and strive to win a beautiful victory.
But until now, Hertha Berlin has retreated from all fronts without even a single shot!
Yun Sheng glanced sideways at Hai Nei on the home team's coaching bench and saw Duan Ran sitting firmly with a calm expression, not worried about his team's ugly scene.
It seems that this is arranged domestically!
Yun Sheng leaned back hard, frowned, took a deep breath, and showed worry on his face.
Sumad looked at Yun Sheng in confusion: "Don't worry. Although we haven't scored a goal now, we are taking the initiative. It won't be long before we can score first."
Sandel also whispered: "We clearly have the advantage in this game, you don't need to worry too much."
But Yun Sheng shook his head: "Guys, this game is much more difficult than you think. Maybe our league winning streak is about to end..."
