Chapter 147 East Asian Derby
The game is about to start, and the starting lineups of both sides have already been played in the center of the screen.

Both sides lined up a 4231 formation.

Away team Nuremberg:
Center: Porter.

Frontcourt: Franz, Hiroshi Kiyotake, Eswein.

Midfielder: Simmons, Balic.

Defenders: Pinola, Nelson, Tim Klose, Chandler.

Goalkeeper: Schaeffer.

Home Team Hamburg:

Center forward: Vardy.

Frontcourt: Sun Xingmin, De Bruyne, Wu Lei.

Back midfielder: Casemiro, Makoto Hasebe.

Defenders: Ogo, Rudiger, Kjaer, Carvajal.

Goalkeeper: Keylor Navas.

And this lineup of Hamburg is the real main force in Pan Yi's mind!
Among the starting 11 players, except for left forward Sun Xingmin and left back Ogo who were originally in Hamburg's team, the remaining 9 players were all bought by Pan Yi in Xia Chuang.

Of course, at the position of left back, Pan Yi still considered candidates.

In fact, winger Jansen, including the center back captain Westman, can play this position, but in the end Pan Yi decided to let Ogo play the main force.

This 2010-year-old guy who was once selected for the German national team to participate in the 25 World Cup is also a fringe figure of the national team.

In the third and fourth finals of the World Cup in South Africa, the German team defeated Uruguay 3-2 to win the third place in the World Cup. Ogo got the chance to come off the bench in the 86th minute of the second half and completed his World Cup debut.

And this is also Ogo's only appearance in this World Cup.

Compared with Jansen and Westerman, Ogo's speed, crossing and passing skills are better, of course he is also younger, these are what Pan Yi values.

Although in Pan Yi's 4231 formation, the burden of attacking the backcourt falls more on the right back Carvajal, but the left side cannot be pulled down too much.

And once Carvajal is plugged in, when Ogo needs to recover and form a three-back formation with Rudiger and Kjaer, his good flexibility and defensive ability can also add an insurance for Hamburg's defense.

Needless to say about other locations.

Not to mention that all of them will be famous players in the future, even today, most of their players are capable enough to gain a foothold in the Bundesliga!
And after nearly two months of training and running-in, after being familiar with the advanced tactical concepts taught by Pan Yi, Pan Yi is of course confident that they will win Nuremberg at home today!
"Today's starting lineups are interesting." Duan Xuan said with a smile, "Nuremberg has Japanese international Hiroshi Kiyotake who just transferred from Osaka Sakura, and Hamburg has Makoto Hasebe and Sun Xingmin. Of course There is also our young player Wu Lei. Together with Hamburg head coach Pan Yi, this Bundesliga is simply an East Asian derby."

Zhang Lu sighed: "Yes. But this kind of East Asian derby, even Japanese derby and Korean derby are actually very common in the Bundesliga. There are too many Japanese and Korean players here. This is also the key to improving the level of their national team. Fortunately, we have seen Pan Yi in the Bundesliga this season, and we have also seen Wu Lei he brought from China. I hope they can gain a firm foothold in the Bundesliga, and can also inspire more domestic coaches and players to come out! Only They have all come out, and there is hope for Longguo football..."

Duan Xuan: "I hope so. We also noticed that coach Pan Yi's starting lineup this time, compared with the German Cup, turned out not to have a single player. Regarding this kind of operation, what do you think of Director Zhang? ?”

Zhang Lu said with a smile: "This seems to be Pan Yi's routine operation. He did this when Milan played against Inter Milan last season. The difference is that last time he played against Inter Milan with a full substitute lineup. This time, I think the one who will play today is the main force in his mind."

Duan Xuan: "Director Zhang means that Hamburg played against Karlsruhe with full substitutes. In fact, coach Pan Yi is not going to do anything in the German Cup?"

Zhang Lu: "Yes, he may have considered the pressure of the two-line battle on the team, so the strategy gave up the German Cup and put all the emphasis on the league. This also confirms our conjecture just now, that is the German Cup. They don't care about the loss at all, the results of the league are what they value most..."

While the two were talking, the match had already begun.

In the first ten, twenty, 10 minutes after the opening, the game was very stalemate.

The Nuremberg team did not rush to attack at the beginning, but did a good job of defending first, and tested the reality of Hamburg.

And Nuremberg's defense is still doing well.

Their double defensive midfielders Simmons and Balic are experienced veterans. Under their command combination, Nuremberg's four lines are kept very tight, and there is very little room for leakage.

In terms of offense, they relied on the scheduling of Japanese international Kiyotake Hiroshi to provide support to center Porter on the front line.

However, the main reason for the stalemate in the game is actually Hamburg.

First of all, the defense line of Hamburg is also doing very well.

In the position of the defensive midfielder, Hasebe Makoto is also a veteran of the Bundesliga, with a solid defense and reasonable shots.

Although Casemiro is a newcomer, but he has played in Brazil for two years, he is young and mature, and he has no stage fright.

The four players on the back line, except Rudiger who is a little green, the cooperation between the other players has been relatively tacit, coupled with the goalkeeper Keylor Navas who often has wonderful performances, this makes it difficult for Nuremberg to penetrate them line of defense.

However, although Hamburg did not allow Nuremberg to play a smooth offense, its own offensive coordination was not good either.

The frontcourt players are still a little nervous!

Although Pan Yi asked the players to relax before the game, it felt completely different when he actually went to the field and played in the roaring tsunami of tens of thousands of fans.

Especially Vardy and Wu Lei.

Although both of them have played for several years, neither has played in the top league.

It was difficult to adapt to the Bundesliga-level offense and defense and atmosphere from the very beginning.

In the case of psychological tension, the technical movements are often not in place, so it is natural for mistakes in coordination to cause the attack to fail.

But after 20 minutes of the game, the situation began to slowly improve.

On the one hand, as time goes by, young players are gradually getting used to this rhythm.

On the other hand, Pan Yi also kept reminding them on the sidelines, reminding them of how they felt during training and warming up, and then quickly regained their status.

As a result, the offensive in Hamburg gradually started, and the Nuremberg side felt the pressure immediately, and the scene fell a bit towards Hamburg.

Nuremberg coach Weisinger unknowingly stood on the sidelines.

He found that when these young people in Hamburg started to run, this kind of high position oppression was a bit suffocating!

Counterattack as soon as the ball is lost, counterattack as soon as the ball is grabbed, and the rhythm is fast.

Under such a fast pace, his players seem to be a little uncomfortable, losing the ball frequently.

Weisinger couldn't help but glanced at the assistant coach Rahman next to him.

Before the game, Rahman patted his chest and said that Hamburg's set was under control, but he didn't seem to have heard him say that the opponent's rhythm is so fast?

At this time, Rahman was sitting quietly on the bench thinking, pretending not to see Wiesinger's gaze-could he tell the head coach that he hadn't actually watched Hamburg's training before? Was kicked out of the team?

It didn't take long for Nuremberg's passivity on the pitch to start to have consequences.

In the 28th minute, Hamburg took the lead in breaking through Nuremberg's goal!

Right winger Wu Lei took a dribble, used speed to forcibly break through the defense of Nuremberg left-back Pinola, rushed to the bottom line on the right side of the penalty area, and crossed to the goal.

Vardy, who followed up in time in the middle, took the first step and sent the ball into the goal guarded by Schaefer before the opponent's central defender.

1:0, Hamburg leads at home!
