However, for Wolfsburg, although Manchester City is a strong enemy, it is not impossible for them to seek victory in the face of this enemy. When their bad luck lamented, Wolfsburg players also found that although the lottery was not very good, it was not impossible to win.
After many discussions and studies in Dubai, I feel that my team is likely to win.
Manchester City is very strong, but Wolfsburg also has many advantages, not to mention, first of all, Wolfsburg has taken advantage of the schedule.
The draw for the Champions League knockout round was held after the Champions League group match in January, and it was almost exactly two months before the Champions League knockout round started. During these two months, for some teams, there were many games to cope with, for example, the Premier League was extremely busy during this period without the winter break, and they still had to work hard during this period. At this time, they had to welcome the so-called Christmas schedule, and in this period, they had a close match to welcome the New Year.
Compared with a Bundesliga team in Wolfsburg, their biggest advantage is that they get a full rest at this time, because there are four fewer games and one less game. The Bundesliga is much less than the Premier League, and the long winter break in the Bundesliga makes Wolfsburg have no games all January, and Wolfsburg players can also have a full rest. One side is overworked and the other side is ready to go. This is also a great advantage for Wolfsburg when it faces Manchester City.
Although Manchester City has not played very well in the past two years, the players in Wolfsburg must admit that they are still weak in the face of Manchester City, and the weak team will naturally hope that the other side will not be in the best state in addition to strengthening themselves, because only in this way can they have a greater chance of winning and make Wolfsburg happy. However, Manchester City will definitely not have much advantage in physical strength.
There is no winter break in the Premier League, and this damn system has been vomited by several coaches. Coming to the Premier League is a fast pace against high-level games, and there are two cups, which require a lot of physical fitness for the players. Because there is no winter break, their team will continue to play in a continuous tight schedule during this period, which is also a major test for their physical fitness. What’s more, playing football at Christmas is not only a physical test but also a psychological test. This system in the Premier League can be said to be completely unscientific, and everyone with a little common sense can see it.
When Wolfsburg players are enjoying their holidays in Dubai, Manchester City players will continue to play football, which will naturally lead to a physical gap between the two sides. After a winter break, Wolfsburg players can return to their best state, and Manchester City may have this gap due to the increase of injuries in the season. Wolfsburg will have a reliable advantage to guide them to victory when they play against Manchester City.
Of course, if Manchester City is cruel enough to give up their Champions League results in the league and deliberately not play well, then maybe they will still be in good physical fitness and still threaten Wolfsburg, but the problem is that things will definitely not happen less this season. Manchester City will never give up the league and play in the Champions League this season, and the players in Wolfsburg are very confident about it
The reason why they won’t give up, of course, is not because when they changed their bosses a few years ago, the boss vowed that Manchester City would win the quadruple in 1314. Now it seems to be a joke and madness. Now, even if Manchester City wants to determine a quadruple, it is not easy to brag in those days. It is precisely because they are not easy to win the championship that Wolfsburg will recognize IE, and they will not give up the league. Because Manchester City seems to have great hopes of winning the championship in the league all season.
The biggest difference between cup and league in football match is that cup is very fortuitous. Sometimes, a very strong team may lose a game, but the league game will be much smaller by chance. Even if the team has made some small mistakes in the long league, it will still be able to get a good ranking if it wants to give full play to its strength for a long time. Therefore, in many cases, the weaker the team, the more they like to bet on the chances of cup success, and the stronger the team, the more they want to stabilize their league results. Because cup and league have different chances of winning for them.
This season, Manchester City’s chances of winning in the League are significantly higher than those in the Champions League and Wolfsburg, so it doesn’t matter whether they are second or third. Manchester City now sees the Premier League champion and hopes that they will win the League and will not give up the League easily.
This season, the Premier League is quite chaotic. In the league, it used to be the overlord. Generally, in Manchester United, the coach changed directly and disappeared. However, Chelsea welcomed their old coach, but it also brought their players back to life. They needed a change of blood. This is not a short time to finish their work. Both teams know that they are not expected to win the championship. It goes without saying that Manchester United and Mourinho have indeed tried to win the championship since the beginning of the season. They can be said to have withdrawn from the championship competition early.
Besides these two teams, other teams in the Premier League are also facing eventful events this year. Autumn Hotspur is now in the reconstruction period because it sold Bell. Although they got Bell for 100 million yuan, it turns out that even if they had 100 million yuan, they didn’t know how to spend it. Up to now, they still played badly. Although Arsenal didn’t change much, it was still the top of the league in January, but it was inevitable that Arsenal would decline when the new year came. This has become a natural law. The North London duo competed for the fourth place instead of the league title.
Apart from these teams, the only opponent that Manchester City needs to worry about is Liverpool, which has revived this year and brought some threats to Manchester City. However, it is not easy for Liverpool to return to the top immediately after years of weakness, and it is hard to believe that they can win the championship because of his temper. Unlike Wolfsburg, Manchester City is in excellent condition in the league. It is very likely that they will become the league champion and win another dazzling honor, and it is impossible for them to concentrate all their energy on the Champions League. That is simply the stupidest thing for them.
Therefore, it is also a big question how hard Manchester City will play in the Champions League compared with Wolfsburg. It is possible that they will leave most of their strength in the league to face those competitions. Of course, in Wolfsburg’s view, that is almost inevitable, because Manchester City’s achievements in the past two years are enough to make them lose the courage to compete with strong teams in the Champions League. With the pain of the past two years, they can’t be too bold to continue to fight hard in the Champions League.
It is the best situation for Wolfsburg that opponents can’t try their best, because they are ready to try their best to deal with Manchester City League at this time, and they are not ready to catch up with Bayern any more. Those games should at least be played to cope with the past. Their goal is in the Champions League, which is in Manchester City.
In the past two years, Manchester City has fully proved what virtue they will play in the Champions League when they are absent-minded. With such performance, it is natural that they will not be afraid to think that their opponents can’t go to Wolfsburg in the Champions League.
Maybe they had to worry about the top three in the league before, but with the arrival of De Blau this winter, although he can’t play in the Champions League, he can play enough games in the league to help Wolfsburg’s main players save energy and continue to expand their advantages. With his help, Wolfsburg can also have greater confidence in facing Manchester City.
Of course, it is impossible to get a good state by rest alone, and it is also necessary to adjust to the best. Fortunately, there are still some games to be played in Wolfsburg before the game against Manchester City comes. They have five games to play in this period, and these games are their final preparations for adjusting their state and preparing for Manchester City.
Section DiErSan War reignited
When the end of January came, as the Bundesliga resumed the war, Wolfsburg also embarked on its own journey in half a season, with the idea of further honing their players with enthusiasm for the Champions League. Wolfsburg players also ushered in their own new round of competition in the league when the half-season came.
The arrival of a new round of matches in Wolfsburg has attracted a lot of people’s attention. They met Manchester City, a powerful team, in the Champions League draw. It is said that they are facing an upcoming hard battle, and people have always wondered whether Wolfsburg is strong enough to cope with their enemies in that upcoming game. Can they compete with Manchester City after a winter?
With this problem, many people paid attention to the Wolfsburg game, and they soon found that after a winter to recuperate, the strength of Wolfsburg obviously increased a lot. When the 18th round of the league match between Wolfsburg and Hanover started, the fans were pleasantly surprised. Compared with half a season, when Wolfsburg players played football, it seemed that both offensive and defensive aggressiveness were significantly higher. From the beginning of the two teams’ playing, Wolfsburg players seemed to have always occupied the wind.
Perhaps a month’s rest is really very important for Wolfsburg. The players have shown great energy in the new league. In the game, their defense is more rigorous and destructive, and the attack pace is extremely fast. It seems that everyone has endless strength after the rest. After the adjustment, their strength has been further enhanced. When they meet them in Hanover, they are caught off guard.
Not long after the start of the game, Wolfsburg launched a beautiful counterattack goal, which was not because Hanover was too weak. On the contrary, their attack was actually quite good. In an attack in Hanover, mate diouf tried to penetrate the defense line of Wolfsburg with a long ball. He sent the ball directly to the front of the penalty area from the midfield position, and Bittencourt let him cross the back defense and face the defender directly. This attack is definitely not bad. Compared with some attacking giants, it is also a beautiful attack.
However, Hanover’s attack is not bad, but Wolfsburg’s defense is definitely stronger. Their players’ defense standard is to be ready to face the giants’ opponents and kill them in front of the penalty area. This is not enough to make Wolfsburg players give up. On the contrary, it is the best opportunity for them to test their defense.
Wolfsburg didn’t panic when Hanover penetrated through their midfield line. At this time, the horse set up a backcourt defense. Kiel rushed to Bittencourt for the first time. He was stronger and oppressed Bittencourt to hold the ball, and Nadal made up the position well behind him. Bittencourt’s shooting angle was locked. Even the back waist was brushed. At this time, they didn’t give up because of mistakes. At the same time, the horse made a contraction defense. By successfully intercepting the opponent’s team’s receiving line, Bittencourt’s attack was completely turned into a bubble.
Bittencourt, a young player, still has some strength. Although he didn’t come out in Dortmund and was sent to Hanover, it doesn’t mean that he is really poor in strength. No matter how powerful a player is, he will adapt to the wolf castle’s strict defense against him, which has completely eliminated the possibility of his outbreak.
Even if he is strong, he is always stronger than Levan, and Wolfsburg’s defense is to rush to lock Levan’s striker to face the physical blockade of Wolfsburg players. He can also resist his feet. Although he controls the football, he can find an effective shooting angle to kick the ball out. He buckled the ball twice in front of the penalty area, but he still couldn’t find a chance.
However, even the slightest hesitation in the ball scene will bring failure to his team. Bittencourt shot the horse with the ball, which had very serious consequences. Kyar was close to his physical advantage in Mali and oppressed him. At the same time, he also found an opportunity to kick the football and poke the ball out.
In the back scene, the defender was so bold as to poke the ball out, which was actually somewhat unsafe. However, for Wolfsburg, they didn’t think so. Many defenders were stationed in various positions. When the ball was poked out, Rodriguez had already rushed. He controlled the ball at the foot and then kicked it out to Shaheen’s foot.
When Rodriguez sent out the football, he rushed to the front on the left. The attack on the left was never weak. He also wanted to help his team attack at this time. His strength is well known. Although he didn’t catch the ball from Shaheen’s foot when he ran forward, his impact was enough to attract people’s attention.
Hanover’s defence has moved to the right at this time, trying to intercept Wolfsburg’s quick attack this time.
However, their defence changed accurately and fell into Shaheen’s eyes by mistake. He seized the opportunity and sent the ball out with one foot. This time, he did not give it to Rodriguez, but directly sent it to the restricted area with a long record!
If the opponent’s defense line is loose, then the most direct attack will be carried out. Compared with half a season, it is obviously cruel. Many opponents know how to attack the ball forward directly, and they will be better at it.
Compared with the striker in Wolfsburg, Bittencourt, Hanover, Gao Shunyao was not a rookie. When the football came from behind, he was already running forward. His foot quickly accelerated and left the opponent’s defender. He suddenly jumped forward with a mallet and hit the ball to the goal!
Wolfsburg’s first goal in half a season came into being. From breaking the ball to scoring, they completed a beautiful attack after three passes. Cheers resounded through Wolfsburg in an instant, and they won their beautiful goal again.
Compared with half a season, the Wolfsburg on both ends of the attack and defense have made significant progress. Close defense and precise attack have made them more deadly in the competition, but poor Hanover realized that their first sacrifice was also tortured in this competition.
Of course, actually, according to Wolfsburg’s pursuit of playing the Champions League this season, they have finished in the league for half a season, and there is no need to strive for victory. They are now in the second place in the league, and their achievements should not be easily left behind, and there is no need to continue to fight hard.
However, the Wolfsburg players don’t seem to think so. First, although they don’t have any pursuit in the league, they still want to continue to warm up by relying on the league. Second, they also know that when the Champions League officially begins, they may also win the Champions League. It is not a bad thing to give up some league games properly and make themselves go further by making more reasonable choices. If they can’t determine their advantages as soon as possible, they will have to fight later. In contrast, the Wolfsburg players hope to build up their advantages completely at this moment and get rid of a psychological burden early.
Wolfsburg players obviously want to open the gap with other teams early at the beginning of the half season, and soon Wolfsburg found another opportunity in another attack.
This time, after the football reached Shaheen’s foot in the middle of the road, he didn’t choose to grow it directly. He took the ball forward a few steps and then moved it to the middle of the road with one foot. Turan’s foot was slightly to the right in front of the penalty area. Face Turan received the ball from his teammate. He turned his back to the goal and couldn’t see the players moving behind him, but he seemed to have eyes behind him. When the opponent came running from his right to intercept the defense, his foot easily turned left with the ball and dodged the opponent’s defense. Then he accelerated and rushed directly to the penalty area.
Turan’s skill and consciousness are still amazing. It is necessary to rely on several extraordinary experiences and excellent defense of the opponent’s position to predict that he can be so light-handed, and his move is enough to cause the defense line to panic that the opponent has passed so easily, which is simply frightening. The Hanover players in the defense line are quickly recovering. They want to establish an absolute numerical advantage in the restricted area to defeat the Wolfsburg attack.
Close defense in the restricted area is never a bad defensive choice. They are obviously already afraid of doing so. Whether a team can make this tactic good is another matter. At this time, Turan clearly noticed that their recovery speed was too fast, which made a hole in front of the restricted area. He didn’t hesitate more. He sent the ball to Man Zukic with one foot.
Man Zukic got the football in the restricted area. Before him, he was in a panic to recover his opponent’s defense line. The Wolfsburg attack obviously occupied an absolute advantage. Facing this defense line, he didn’t hesitate. He directly volleyed the ball out!
Football is like a cannonball flying towards the right side of the goal, and the opponent’s secret defense has been attacked and blasted out before it is built. Hannover goalkeeper Ziller has witnessed the football flying into the goal Wolfsburg before he even jumped up, turning the game score into!
This game Wolfsburg is definitely a complete victory over the opponent!
Section 424 Revenge War
On January 25th, Wolfsburg scored successively by two strikers in the 18th round of the league, and finally ushered in a victory. After the game, all the media agreed that if Wolfsburg didn’t make too many adjustments after the half-time arrival to let the new team Debrao find his form, maybe this game would be more beautiful. Half a season has started, and Wolfsburg’s strength seems to be even better. So the team has finished the law to stop them.
Compared with the former Wolfsburg, the football is in a better state now, with a lot of energy, aggression, sharp attack and threats. In the face of opponents, the defensive players are in danger and joint strangulation. The midfielders never expect the enemy to take the lead, and the strikers dare to take responsibility and try to shoot. This team is even more terrible than before.
However, it is obviously not proud to defeat only one local tyrant team in the Champions League. Hanover is only the 13th distance from the relegation zone in the league, and it is also a step away. No matter how well they play against such a team, they can’t prove that Wolfsburg is ready for the Champions League. If they really want to prove themselves, they also need to beat some really strong teams to make people believe that they are really ready for everything.
It is not without such a strong team in the Bundesliga. For example, it will be much more difficult for Wolfsburg to face Schalke in the next 19 th round, and whether Wolfsburg can beat them is more important.
The media is very concerned about this, but the media doesn’t know that it is for this game that the Wolfsburg players have been waiting for a long time.
In half a season, Wolfsburg lost three games, one of which was to Schalke’s four hands. That was their first defeat in half a season and a game that made them feel depressed until now. At that time, Wolfsburg was not ready for the league as it is now. At that time, they were still defending champions and were ready to meet the challenge in the league. However, Schalke gave them a blow and knocked them out completely.
If losing to Bayern and Dortmund is not particularly depressing for Wolfsburg, losing to Schalke 4 can be said to be depressing for Wolfsburg for a long time. Both teams are very strong, and even if they lose to them, the players in Wolfsburg are still very weak, which is obviously much weaker than Schalke 4. This defeat is also unacceptable for the players in Wolfsburg.
