Football: Start with 99 stamina, prevent vomiting Rio

After seeing Lin Jie's goal, the referee on the field looked at the time.

Then he decisively blew the whistle to end the first half.

After hearing the referee blow the whistle to end the first half, Manchester City's players also lowered their heads, looked depressed, and reluctantly left the field first and walked towards the locker room.

Only the Dortmund players on the field were celebrating wildly.

Because for Dortmund's players.

In the first half, they played such a perfect defensive performance and scored another goal away from home.

Currently leading by two goals in the total score, they are infinitely close to entering the Champions League final.

Just like Manchester United at that time, half a foot has already stepped into the stage of the Champions League final!

On the sidelines, as the head coach of Manchester City, Guardiola could only touch his shiny forehead helplessly.

Before, he was still considering whether he needed to adjust the offensive formation.

Put more troops into the offense to equalize the score.

And with Lin Jie's header.

Manchester City is currently two goals behind in the total score!

Guardiola can no longer think and struggle.

Will Dortmund's counterattack be more effective after strengthening the attack?

The score difference has been further widened.

Because the score difference has now been widened to two goals.

In the second half, Manchester City needs to attack actively and try to equalize the two goals as much as possible.

Fortunately, Guardiola made this assumption before the game.

Manchester City also has a corresponding change of tactics.

Now it is necessary to change tactics during the halftime break.

And Guardiola also saw the expressions of the players leaving the field at the end of the first half.

Guardiola is very clear that he also needs to cheer up his players during the halftime break.

Lin Jie's superb defensive performance in the first half must have had a certain impact on the mentality of the players on the field.

It can be seen that in the last stage of the first half, Manchester City players took the initiative to give up the attack, and a big reason was that they felt desperate about Lin Jie's defense.

Guardiola needed to eliminate the players' fear, helplessness and despair of Lin Jie's defense.

During the halftime break, Guardiola needed to adjust tactics and change the lineup to score a goal.

In this way, he told the Manchester City players on the field that Lin Jie's defense was not so indestructible!

They are Manchester City!

They have the ability to break through Dortmund's defense!

They also have the ability to break through Lin Jie's wall of sighs!

And cheering and encouraging, commonly known as chicken blood and tactical adjustments, are all Guardiola's traditional skills.

So during the halftime break, Guardiola's generous and energetic voice continued to be heard in Manchester City's locker room, constantly encouraging Manchester City players.

In contrast, in Dortmund's locker room, Marco Rose tried his best to calm his players down.

Although he was also very excited, the team currently had a two-goal lead and was the first to score in the second round of away games.

But he also knew clearly that the opposing team was called Manchester City!

That was a top Premier League giant!

Although they were behind now, once Manchester City had a chance, they could launch a counterattack frenzy in a moment and instantly equalize the two-goal lead.

In the first game, Dortmund also got off to a dream start.

But in the next nearly an hour of game time, Dortmund was suppressed by Manchester City who had come to their senses.

Until Manchester City equalized the score, Lin Jie seized the mentality of Manchester City players who were eager to overtake.

Seizing the opportunity, Manchester City pressed the space behind them with a high position, and assisted Haaland to score with a long pass.

This saved Dortmund's original decline.

Now this is the second round of the game, and there is no room for error for Dortmund players to make mistakes.

And a mistake that has been made once must not be made a second time.

Therefore, Dortmund has only one goal for the second half, which is to maintain the current score and advance to the final!

Of course, the most important thing about the halftime break is to calm down the Dortmund players who are a little excited at the moment as soon as possible.

They need to concentrate and prepare for the hysterical attack of Manchester City players in the second half.

…

Soon the halftime break was over, and the players from both sides returned to the field to prepare for the kick-off.

In the second half, the two sides exchanged venues and Manchester City kicked off.

"Okay, then we can see the second half of the game officially start!"

"Alas, here we originally expected Manchester City to make personnel adjustments in advance, but it didn't happen."

"You know, in the first half, Manchester City players didn't play well against Dortmund's defense. It's still difficult to make tactical adjustments without personnel adjustments at this time!"

Zhan Jun was also a little confused about Guardiola's lack of personnel adjustments.

"Oh, yes, who said it wasn't!"

"There are still many good players on Manchester City's bench!"

"Like Sterling, Gundogan, Jesus, Palmer and many other good players."

"Manchester City, as a wealthy team, also has its foundation as a wealthy team."

"This is Manchester City's advantage, but I don't know why Guardiola didn't make adjustments."

Coach Zhang was also very confused about this.

"Well, then I'll analyze it superficially."

"First of all, the offensive ability of the lineup sent by Manchester City on the field is sufficient. ”

“And the players on the field are relatively familiar with Dortmund's defense after the first half of the game.”

“A rash substitution may not necessarily yield particularly good results.”

“Although the new substitutes can attack Dortmund's defense more effectively”

“But they may still be a little uncomfortable facing Dortmund's defense.”

“From Guardiola's point of view, he also wants to give the players on the field a little time to see if they can break through Dortmund's defense.”

“And the current starting players on the field have strong offensive capabilities, and the players on the bench may not be as strong as them.”

“And after the current lineup is deployed, we can actually clearly see that Guardiola has made adjustments.”

“At present, Manchester City has directly deployed the lineup and the entire army is pressed forward, leaving only two central defenders behind. ”

“The two full-backs, except Walker's position is a little further back, Cancelo has been completely moved forward to the left wing or even the left winger position!”

“From the lineup point of view, Manchester City's lineup has become 3-4-3 after this all-out attack!”

“This is obviously an offensive signal!”

“Although Guardiola did not make any personnel adjustments during the halftime break.”

“This is quite unexpected.”

“But there are still significant adjustments in formation and offensive tactics!”
