Chapter 98 Is there such a good thing? [The ninth update, please subscribe! ]

After De Bruyne left the field, Werder Bremen had some problems with the operation of the midfield and frontcourt.

The players seemed not to be used to Lin Quan appearing in the attacking midfielder position, and the two sides did not form a tacit understanding in their cooperation.

They are very confident about Lin Quan playing as winger.

However, his teammates have a question mark in their minds about Lin Quan's position as attacking midfielder.

Seeing this, Lin Quan took the initiative to retreat and cooperate with his teammates.

Seeing that he took the initiative to retreat to receive the ball, Fritz had no choice but to pass the ball to him.

After Lin Quan received the ball, he was immediately pressed by several Schalke players.

The commentators were also worried for him. If he lost the ball in this position, it would be dangerous.

But Lin Quan did not give the opponent any chance, he passed the ball steadily.

"This ball was passed in a standard way, I can't tell what it is!"

The commentators commented very objectively.

A few minutes later, the ball was passed to Lin Quan again.

Before he stopped the ball, he observed the positions and running routes of the players on both sides of the field, and then tried a long pass.

Unfortunately, there was no tacit understanding between him and his teammates, and no one followed up after he passed the ball, resulting in his pass not feeling like a pass but more like a mistake.

Lin Quan shook his head, took the blame and indicated that he had made the mistake.

He overestimated the positioning of his teammates. If this happened in the Spanish national team, or even in the national youth team, there would be players who understood his intentions and formed wonderful cooperation.

But on the club's side, the players are not familiar with his playing style, so such cooperation is difficult to achieve.

It seems that we need to make the fight a little simpler.

Schalke's players were relieved when they saw Lin Quan make such an outrageous mistake.

Because the opponent was very famous and had scored against them before, Schalke's players were very wary of Lin Quan.

When they saw the opponent abnormally playing as a central midfielder, they were worried at first, thinking that the opponent had some killer move.

After playing for more than ten minutes, they found:

That’s it?

If it was just this level, then they would be relieved!

There was not much time left in the game, and Schalke, who wanted to reverse the game, had no time to play games with Werder Bremen.

They began to intensify their offense, trying to change the score in the final minutes and take all three points.

The opponent's main midfielder was injured and left the field. If they still couldn't win despite such a big advantage, they would not be able to explain to the more than 50,000 fans at the scene.

Huntelaar, the former Bundesliga Golden Boot winner who had not scored a goal in this game, seemed very hungry. He waved for the ball several times in the frontcourt, wanting to be the hero who changed the score.

But Werder Bremen was well aware of his threat and defended him very tightly, not giving him many good opportunities.

However, Drakles, who came on as a substitute, and Schalke's No. 10 Holtby had several threatening shots in the game and almost changed the score.

Seeing that the team was suppressed, the coaching staff of Werder Bremen began to worry.

"We put Lin Quan in the attacking midfielder position, and the team's offensive coordination in the frontcourt can't be played out. The threat has decreased a lot. Is this choice really reasonable?"

Assistant coach Rolf said worriedly that the situation on the field looked like they were going to lose.

"Be patient, he has only been on the court for a short time and we can't tell anything yet!"

Another assistant coach, Hernebach, was much calmer. As someone who had witnessed Lin Quan create miracles many times, he had a deep trust in Lin Quan.

Lin Quan took the initiative to ask for the position of attacking midfielder. He must have his reasons for doing so. Since we can't guess, we should just trust him! After resolving the opponent's offensive, the ball returned to Werder Bremen.

After receiving the ball, Lin Quan began to change his playing style. When faced with the opponent's pressure, he did not pass the ball immediately.

Instead, he tried to break through, which is a rare style of play among attacking midfielders.

Because if they lose the ball, it will lead to a switch in offense and defense. When they are investing troops to launch an attack, they suddenly lose the ball and are counterattacked by the opponent. There will be big loopholes in their own defense, and it will be easy for the opponent to score if they are not careful.

Because of this, many strong teams will emphasize the timing of counterattacks, and like to seize the opportunity when the opponent counterattacks to counterattack.

Schalke's players did not expect the opponent to choose to break through. After receiving the ball several times before, he chose to pass the ball honestly.

This lowered their vigilance a lot, and they seemed to have forgotten that the opponent was a winger with sharp breakthroughs.

A player who is good at breaking through, whether on the wing or in the middle, he can dribble past opponents if given the opportunity.

After passing the pressing player, Lin Quan had a lot more passing options.

He passed the ball to Elia on the wing and quickly moved forward to receive the ball.

Elia and Lin Quan cooperated many times, and they tacitly passed the ball directly to him after the opponent moved into position.

Lin Quan received the ball and looked up at the penalty area.

At the front of Schalke's penalty area, Peterson, who came on as a substitute, was sprinting with all his might.

He ran very actively, but did not seem to notice that he was in an offside position.

Lin Quan did not pass the ball to him, but continued to dribble forward, made a wall pass with another forward Hunter, and hit a long shot outside the penalty area.

The kick was so straight that the goalkeeper caught the ball easily.

Lin Quan gave Peterson a thumbs up, indicating that he had run well and encouraged him to keep up the good work.

Peterson thought the opponent would pass the ball to him, but in the end the ball never came.

If it were in the past, he might have run over angrily and asked the other party why he didn't pass it to him.

But now, after knowing clearly who is the boss of the team, he dare not complain.

After thinking about it carefully, I seemed to have run too fast just now. I didn’t even see the opponent’s defender around me?

Schalke players were very surprised. They didn't expect the opponent would dare to make such a breakthrough in the midfield.

He succeeded by luck. If he had failed to dribble past the opponent and the ball had been intercepted, he would have cried.

Although Schalke's players were hit by a long shot from the opponent, they did not care.

Without Lin Quan putting pressure on them up front, it was too easy for them to defend against Werder Bremen's attack.

Schalke's players even had a feeling of returning to last season when they easily slaughtered Werder Bremen 5-0 at home.

The opponent is still the same weak opponent, nothing has changed!

As the game continued, Werder Bremen's players gradually adapted to Lin Quan's rhythm.

Their opponents felt that Lin Quan played poorly or even mediocrely in the attacking midfielder position.

But the players of Werder Bremen don't see it that way.

With the sudden change of the main midfielder, they had no time to adapt, but Lin Quan was able to ensure coordination with his teammates in such a short period of time and ensure the success rate of passing and receiving the ball, without losing the ball even once.

This is enough to prove his strength!

After adapting to his teammates' playing style, Lin Quan's cooperation with his teammates has continued to improve.

Compared to more than ten minutes ago, now he can pass and receive the ball more easily and handle the ball more reasonably.

He organized Werder Bremen's midfield in an orderly manner, which greatly increased his teammates' confidence in him and made them more willing to cooperate with him.

Schalke knew nothing about this and had no idea that danger had arrived.

In the 83rd minute, Schalke launched another attack. They gathered a large number of people in the frontcourt, trying to break through Werder Bremen's goal with their numerical advantage.

Schalke created quite a stir in front of Werder Bremen's goal, but their attack was all talk and no action.

Several shots either hit the defenders or were saved by the goalkeeper.

The corner kick did not get the first point, and their attack was successfully resolved by Werder Bremen.

It was Werder Bremen's turn to counterattack, and the ball was quickly passed to Lin Quan's feet.

Lin Quan thought that the opponent would press him as quickly as before, and he was already prepared to get rid of the defensive player.

But to his surprise, the opponent's players did not rush up immediately.

Lin Quan was surprised and after a quick observation, he saw the Schalke players breathing heavily.

Although they tried hard to intercept, their physical strength seemed not to support their actions, causing them to fail halfway.

After the crazy pressing in the first half, the physical strength of Schalke players dropped rapidly. Their physical strength, which had not been fully recovered due to the Champions League game, was almost gone after the pressure in this half.

Schalke's players are starting to run slower! This is good news!

Werder Bremen was waiting for this moment! He raised his hand and made a gesture of attack, signaling his teammates to rush forward.

It's our turn to attack Schalke's goal! My teammates understood and started running like crazy.

Peterson ran the most actively. He remembered what Lin Quan said before: Don't worry about anything else, just keep running forward! This time he learned from the previous lesson and did not rush to the front. He always kept on the same level with the opponent's defender.

In this way, the opponent will not be able to make him offside.

Schalke's defenders looked down on him. This guy just ran around after he came on the court. Other forwards ran into the empty space, but he ran in a straight line and got between Schalke's two central defenders.

Did you come here expecting to have a chance to shoot? The Schalke defender was full of contempt. This guy was running so hard, but his teammates didn't pass the ball to him.

Coupled with his poor running selection, it made them feel that Peterson was just a cover, a cover to distract their attention.

So they ignored Peterson and focused on guarding Aaron Hunt and Elia.

According to Lin Quan’s previous playing style, he would definitely pass the ball to these two people.

However, to their surprise, this time, Lin Quan did not look for these two people.

While running at high speed, he looked up at the running positions of several teammates in the frontcourt and quickly made a choice.

Lin Quan's pass was a curve ball that brushed the grass with a slight arc.

The pass was very difficult. It passed Schalke's full-back Atsuto Uchida on the outside, turned a corner and landed right in front of the penalty area.

At this moment, Peterson just happened to run here.

As Peterson ran, he was still thinking about how his teammates would pass the ball around the two defenders. If the ball was really passed, how would he get rid of the two defenders around him and kick it in?

As he was running, the ball suddenly appeared in front of him, but the two defenders beside him disappeared at some point.

There is such a good thing? Without even thinking about it, he swung his leg and kicked.
