Chapter 391

Ibrahimovic took the ball in front of the penalty area, and the Greek "Papa" was about to press it up, but before he was in place, Ibrahimovic had already distributed the ball. After receiving the ball, "Cavani" on the right didn't stop the ball, pushed his arch directly, and passed a high ball.

Ibrahimovic, who was inserted into the penalty area, took off with his back to the goal under the double-team of "Hummels" and "Subotic". When he vacated to the shoulder height of "Hummels", Ibrahimovic raised his right leg high. How high is it?Higher than the top of your head!Yes, Ibrahimovic chose "Barb Rinkong"!

The 1-meter-long Ibrahimovic barb on the spot flew so fast that Hummels had no time to block it. In this way, Ibrahimovic slammed the ball towards the goal, and the ball flew out with a strong uplift. Weidenfeller jumped up and missed it.

After the ball went out of bounds, there was a burst of exclamation from the fans in the audience. Some people couldn't help thinking "it's dangerous", but of course more people were thinking "what a cow".This is Ibrahimovic, out of the ordinary way!

After landing, Ibrahimovic looked back and saw that the ball was not scored. The Swede made a regretful expression, and Cavani came over and patted Ibrahimovic, indicating that he did a great job.

There is a story in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" of "Three Great Britain vs. Lu Bu". Just now Dortmund's three defenders-Papa, Subotic, Hummels fought Ibrahimovic, but Ibrahimovic just tore apart Dortmund's defense line with one pass and one shot. The power of the Swedish tower can be seen.

In the last game, Paris Saint-Germain’s offense was chaotic (mainly due to unreasonableness), because there was no core in the frontcourt. Although Cavani, Lavezzi, Verratti, Matuidi and others are very strong, I am afraid that everyone will not be convinced if they really want to overtake each other. But it is different with Ibrahimovic.

Therefore, the most significant change brought about by Ibrahimovic's first start in this game is that the "Great Paris" offense played smarter and more efficiently, instead of making infinite breakthroughs on the sideways again and again as in the previous game.

If you want me to make an analogy, Ibrahimovic is equivalent to "Vud Nicholas" plus "Sneijder". He is a player who can straddle the two positions of forward and midfielder. In fact, when he was still in Ajax, Ibrahimovic often retreated to play the midfielder.

Just kidding, Ibrahimovic should wear both No. 10 and No. 9 jerseys.

Within 5 minutes of the opening, Ibrahimovic has completed 2 extremely threatening shots, and at this time Dortmund fans have not even put away "TiFo". It seems that the guiding ideology of Paris in this game has not changed, that is to grab the start!

*****

In this game, for Dortmund, Klopp put a lot of effort into the starting lineup. It can be said that not only the players on the field have changed, but more importantly, Klopp has changed the "team building program".

Goalkeeper - Weidenfeller.

Defense - Sven Bender, Subotic, Hummels, Papa.

Double midfielder-Shaheen, Gundogan.

Avant-garde line-Royce, Mkhitaryan, Pischek.

Single striker - Aubameyang.

The essence of modern football is that 11 people are twisted into one rope, emphasizing overall football. When we often see people talking about Africa, they will say-"the individual ability is good, but the integrity is not good".

And Klopp's thinking in this game is exactly the opposite of the mainstream thinking. He cut three lines, and the defense line is purely defensive, using 4 central defenders (Bender played as a central defender in the German national team).

The two defensive midfielders purely control the ball, and then the front four purely attack. This kind of play that cuts the three lines into three parts and divides the work can be said to be very strange. Not to mention the Champions League, it is not seen even in low-level leagues.

So what did Klopp think of it?Perhaps it was inspired by the industrial assembly line. The biggest feature of the industrial assembly line is the division of labor. One type of work is responsible for one task. For example, those who screw screws are specially screwed, and those who install batteries install batteries all day long.

Klopp thought that with the current strength and personnel situation of Dortmund, it would definitely not be comparable to Paris Saint-Germain as a whole.

Of course, football speaks by results. Whether Klopp's innovation is a myth or a joke can only be known after the game is over.

Another major change of Klopp is to transfer the "right back" Piszczek to the "left winger".

This was a helpless move after Li Qiao was injured. Klopp really wanted to keep the tactics of flying with both wings, but without Li Qiao, Dortmund seemed to have broken a limb. In the last game, "Aubameyang" retreated.

If you have seen the 2031 Champions League semi-finals - Real Madrid vs. Dortmund, you should have an impression of "Piszczek". At that time, Dortmund's three Poles-Lewand, Kuba, and Piszczek formed a "Polish right" that was invincible in Europe.

Now Klopp wants to find someone like Li Qiao in the team who has a sharp breakthrough and accurate cross, then Piszczek is the ideal choice.

Compared with Dortmund's big fight here, Paris's starting lineup is basically unchanged. Except for Ibrahimovic who replaced Lucas in the first place, everything else is exactly the same as the last game.

Goalkeeper - Sirigu.

Defender - Van der Weel, Thiago Silva, David Luiz, Maxwell.

Midfielders - Verratti, Matuidi, Pastore.

Frontcourt - Cavani, Ibrahimovic, Ravitch.

Paris Saint-Germain basically maintained the consistent style of "Blanco"-solid defense and waiting for opportunities to counterattack.

*****

After the passivity at the beginning, Dortmund breathed a sigh of relief. Klopp knew that it was impossible to defend "Cavani", "Ibrahimovic" and "Lavezzi".

In fact, it is very simple, because the possession of the ball is in the hands of the opponent, and Paris Saint-Germain's midfielder can't hold the ball, so no matter how powerful the striker in front of them is, it is useless.

If it was the previous game, when Dortmund advocated overall football, Klopp actually didn't have much confidence in the midfielder to get the ball. At that time, Klopp's requirement for the midfielder was to pass the ball quickly, which was a transition, not to organize the center of possession.

But now that Shaheen is back, Klopp has confidence. Shaheen and Gundogan can control the midfield, so Klopp gestures and asks others to give the ball to Shaheen or Gundogan.At the beginning, the players were not used to this style of play. The reason is very simple, because in previous games, Dortmund players kicked forward as soon as they got the ball in the midfield, and then handed it to Li Qiao and Royce.

But after 10 minutes, Dortmund forcefully adapted to this style of play. It was as if strong magnets were installed on the feet of Shaheen and Gundogan, and the ball was naturally attracted to their feet.Professional players are very smart. Teammates prefer to give the ball to him who has a strong ability to control the ball, because it saves the most effort to play like this.

If you think about it, if you give the ball to an unreliable person, if he loses the ball, the opponent will counterattack, and you have to chase back desperately, then you will not be exhausted.

Dortmund gradually took control in the midfield, which made "Blanco" a little anxious, "Why is it so difficult to kill the Germans"?Blanco thought.

In fact, since the two rounds, Paris Saint-Germain always felt that they could kill their opponents with one beat, but miraculously, after a stormy attack, Blanco looked up and saw that Dortmund was still alive!

German football has this kind of ability, just like in the World Cup final in Brazil, the German fans must have been terrified, because it seems that Argentina is about to overwhelm the German team's defense line.

It's the same now, after the opening pass, if you look up at the big screen, you won't believe your eyes. The ball possession rate shown on the big screen is 57% for Dortmund, and on the scene, Dortmund has also controlled the midfield.

Both Gundogan and Shaheen have top-notch personal abilities, coupled with mutual protection, it is difficult for Paris to steal the ball in the midfield.

Blanco anxiously whistled at his midfielder. He pointed to "Matuidi" and made a pressing gesture.

The situation was reversed, and Klopp was happy but also worried. He himself played football and knew that the most obvious feeling when a player returned to the court after his injury was that his legs were weak. Klopp knew that Shaheen's possession of the ball had basically recovered, but his confrontation ability may only have recovered 60%.

Fortunately, Gundogan did a good job of protecting Shaheen. As soon as the opponent stepped forward, Gundogan immediately stepped up to meet Shaheen. In this way, the Paris players have not yet had a chance to attack Shaheen.

But the Paris Saint-Germain players gradually discovered this. Shaheen seemed to be always avoiding the ball, so the Paris Saint-Germain midfielder began to focus on Shaheen. Verratti began to approach Shaheen.

Obviously, this was a well-prepared grab for the ball. Shaheen was cut off from the point of departure, and Verratti pressed very tightly. Under the tension, his legs were a little weak.
