Football: Start with 99 stamina, prevent vomiting Rio

Both coaches could accept the score result in the middle of the game, but they were not willing to accept it.

For Dortmund, they were two goals ahead of Manchester City in less than 11 minutes.

But in the following games, they never found a chance to score again.

At the end of the first half, they still maintained the two goals in the first 11 minutes.

This was very unacceptable for Mark Ross.

However, the goal was lost around the 28th minute of the game.

Manchester City broke through Dortmund's defense with just two passes, which made him feel worried.

He was afraid that Manchester City, which would regain its form, would attack more oppressively.

It might be necessary to equalize the score in the first half, or even complete a reversal.

After all, his players consumed too much energy under the high-intensity pressing in the first 30 minutes of the first half.

Fortunately, Lin Jie's outstanding performance prevented Manchester City from equalizing the score in the first half, which was acceptable to him.

But obviously, such a long goal drought is not good for Dortmund.

How to find the previous goal-scoring status in the second half.

This is also what Mark Ross needs to consider during the halftime break.

After all, the first round of the game is at Dortmund's home court.

If you can't establish a big enough lead in the first round.

With only one goal lead at present, it may not be guaranteed to maintain this one-goal lead in the second half.

For Dortmund, it will be quite stressful to go to the Etihad Stadium in the second round.

And the defensive choice of Dortmund players on the field in the first 30 minutes of the first half, continuous high-pressure.

Although it created a dream start of two goals in the first 11 minutes.

But the subsequent high-pressure pressing effect was not good.

Obviously, the players on the field can't continue to play freely in the second half.

This is also what Mark Ross needs to consider how to formulate the corresponding defensive tactics in the second half.

Try to keep the score as much as possible to get a bigger lead.

As for Guardiola.

At the beginning of the game, his team lost two goals in less than 11 minutes.

It was undoubtedly a wake-up call for him.

But fortunately, the adjustment ability of Manchester City players is very strong.

Facing Dortmund's crazy high-pressure pressing, Manchester City players also performed with ease.

And in the second half of the first half, they gradually adapted to the rhythm of the field.

And they also seized the opportunity of Dortmund's frequent high-pressure pressing, which led to a larger space behind them, and scored a goal.

This is what makes Guardiola relieved and satisfied.

But at the same time, Manchester City did not quickly equalize the score after regaining its form in the second half.

Instead, it fell into a stalemate again.

Facing Dortmund, whose physical strength has dropped significantly, Manchester City did not play the offensive performance it should have.

Especially De Bruyne.

Under the special care of Lin Jie, the help provided to the team on the offensive end was not particularly great.

In the last stage of the first half, Guardiola was not satisfied with the team's weak offense.

He was not willing to enter the halftime break without equalizing the score.

After all, after experiencing such crazy high-pressure pressing in the first half, the physical consumption of Dortmund players was far greater than that of Manchester City players.

Dortmund had a lot of deformation in some technical actions on defense in the last stage of the first half.

As a result, Manchester City still failed to equalize the score.

This made Guardiola a little worried about whether he could equalize the score or even complete the reversal in the second half.

So for the team's offense in the second half, Guardiola needs to think carefully about how to organize and arrange tactics.

And let De Bruyne, who has been stared at by Lin Jie, get rid of Lin Jie's defense and play his due effect.

This is also what Guardiola needs to consider.

Of course, the team can't relax easily on the defensive end.

If they can't open up on the offensive end, Dortmund will seize the opportunity to counterattack and widen the score again.

Then for Manchester City, they will also have offensive pressure when they return to their home court.

After all, Guardiola has also seen Dortmund's defensive ability.

It is still difficult for Manchester City to break through dense defense.

After all, Manchester City at this time does not have a high center forward like Haaland who can play a certain fulcrum role.

So this halftime break is very time-consuming for both coaches.

There are still many things they need to explain to the players!

Bring the rightFor them, the 15 minutes of halftime break may determine the direction of the second half, the entire game, or even the entire series!

…

Under the tight tactical arrangements of both sides, the halftime break time is fleeting.

Both coaches are trying their best to instill the adjusted tactics into the players.

In the second half of the game, the two sides exchanged venues and prepared to kick off again.

It was Manchester City who kicked off in the second half!

After Guardiola's tactical adjustment during the halftime break, the main offensive choice of Manchester City was changed from De Bruyne to Bernardo Silva.

After all, in the short 15 minutes of halftime break, Guardiola found after careful consideration that it seemed to be quite difficult to get De Bruyne to get rid of Lin Jie.

Since there is no way to deal with it, then avoid Lin Jie!

Anyway, Lin Jie is only one person, and the defensive area he can cover is relatively limited.

When Lin Jie focuses more on De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva will have more space to play.

So Manchester City's main attack direction also shifted from De Bruyne's left to Bernardo Silva's right.

After reconfirming the core of the attack, Manchester City's offense once again found the backbone.

After the players regained their form, they got another halftime break to adjust.

Manchester City's offense was quite active and threatening at the beginning of the second half!

And this wave of Manchester City's attack was very clear, that is, bypassing the left side where Lin Jie was!

The main attack was on the right side where Bellingham was relatively weak in defense.

And Lin Jie didn't dare to let De Bruyne go easily.

Although he was restricted for half a game, Lin Jie believed that as long as he was given a chance.

De Bruyne was able to quickly find the weakness of Dortmund's defense and then come with a fatal blow!

Moreover, Manchester City's attack was a bit disorganized at the end of the first half.

This also caused Dortmund to misjudge.

It was believed that Manchester City's attack intensity would be strengthened even at the beginning of the second half.

However, Lin Jie still had some confidence in his players and believed that his teammates could defend Dortmund's Manchester City attack.

Therefore, Lin Jie did not retreat immediately in this wave of Manchester City's attack.

Instead, De Bruyne continued to pull him on the left!
