King of Competition

Chapter 85 Hertha Berlin

Recently, Heinx, the head coach of Schalke 04, is very happy, not only because Schalke 04 defeated Bayern, but also because of the success of his two offensive tactics, which is also an affirmation of his ability.

The first tactic is the three-four-three tactic of Schalke 04. The three striker is dominated by Don Jack to carry out offensive football in an all-round way. Such tactics are very rare in Bundesliga teams. The second is to deal with the opening tactics of Bayern. Although it can't suppress Bayern, at least it does not let the other side score goals. In the team, it is also a success. The success of tactics made Heinx feel that a road to offensive football was paved in front of him.

Obviously, the success of this tactic is also what Schalke 04 Club hopes to see.

Why?

Most modern football is utilitarian, that is, winning or losing is the most important point. As long as it is a successful tactic, it is a good tactic to win the game. There is a term in football called 'offensive wins fans, defense wins', which is what it means. In order to win, most teams will use defense. Guard tactics.

For example, this season, Portugal has a team called Porto. The head coach of this team is a 40-year-old middle-aged man named Jose. Mourinho, in the head coach industry, a 40-year-old middle-aged man can definitely be described as very young. Such a very young coach has now led Porto to the top eight in the Champions League. In the Portuguese League, Porto is also a solo show, and it is not a problem to win the league championship.

Porto's tactic is to defend!

Throughout Porto's game this season, most of the time there is nothing to watch, but they rely on "1:0" to make the team's results always ranked first in Portugal, and they are even about to win the championship a few rounds ahead of schedule.

This is the victory of defense.

Although many teams, coaches and media despise Mourinho's approach and say that his tactics are 'the regression of European football', Porto has succeeded. At least last season, they have won the league championship, the League Cup championship and the domestic cup championship. Obviously, it is very successful, and this season looks like It's a good journey, and there is even a chance to win the Champions League, which is enough.

This is the proof of the victory of the defense.

What Schalke 04 Club s more about is offensive tactics, which seems to be a little wrong, but in fact, Schalke 04 and Porto are completely different.

In Portugal, Porto is also a rich team with history. Even now, they have the opportunity to win the championship every season, but Schalke 04 is different. The Bundesliga is one of the five major leagues. The strength of the domestic team has won one by one, and Bayern Munich is the unshakable banner of the Bundesliga. It's not easy for Schalke 04 to win the championship.

The more important point is 'offensive to win the fans', which is what Schalke 04 value.

If a club wants to develop, the number of fans is the most basic thing. Schalke 04 is in the Ruhr district where German football is flourishing. The competition between clubs is very fierce. Especially this season, there are three Bundesliga teams in the Ruhr district: Schalke 04, Dortmund and Bochum. The three teams are now ranked in Germany. The fifth, sixth and seventh place, think about how fierce the competition between them is.

In this fierce competition, the competition for fans in the Ruhr area is obviously very important.

If Schalke 04 can ensure the performance and make the team's offensive play well, it will definitely win the support of more fans, which is the most important thing. Only with the foundation of fans can the club develop smoothly, so Schalke 04 Club value the team's offensive tactics so much.

Obviously, at this point, the current Heinx is complatic.

Facts have proved that all two of his offensive tactics have been successful. It seems to be too much to say. It should be said that the two offensive tactics centered on Don Jack have been successful.

How can we develop this offensive tactics and let Schalke 04 truly enter the era of offensive football?

This is the problem in front of Heinx, and it is exactly what he has to consider recently.

The Bundesliga is still going on. With only six rounds left in the league, every game will become crucial. At present, when it is not an experimental tactic, Heinx is also very clear that he is more focused on the next opponent.

Hertha Berlin, this is the next opponent that Schalke 04 will face.

Looking at the football map of Germany, you can find that almost all the well-known clubs are in the west and south, which makes the unified German capital somewhat discount its self-esteem. Berlin, the only world-class metropolis in Germany, is really not good at football.

Berlin's policy is obviously very supportive of football in the capital. Their slogan is that Berlin must keep up with football. This is not only for the people of Berlin, but also for the fans around Berlin, because only Hertha Berlin is in their sight. Therefore, from the common people to the leaders of all walks of life, there is a common slogan: the good show has really begun now.

Both the fans and the support of the government have given Hertha Berlin the capital to succeed. Of course, it also brings unprecedented pressure to the club.

Hertha Berlin is the only football club in Berlin, the capital of Germany. It was founded very early, on July 25, 1892. The club was founded so early. Obviously, it will be the founding member of the German Football Federation founded in Leipzig in 1900.

In the 1930s, Hertha Berlin also had a highlight, which won the national league championship in 1930 and 1931.

Subsequently, due to the spread of Nazi terror in Germany, Hitler's dictatorship and other political reasons, Berlin's special status determined that the team could not have a good record.

Looking back on the history of Hertha Berlin, it can be said that it is step by step. Although it won the third place in the 1998-1999 season, its 18 years of experience in the Bundesliga is really worthless compared with those old teams born in the 19th century, and it was recently promoted to the Bundesliga in 1997.

In 2000, in this cross-century year, Hertha Berlin advanced to the UEFA Champions League for the first time and successfully reached the second round against many strong European teams. In 2000 and 2001, they won the German Cup twice in a row. At that time, Berlin Hahua acquired Germany's new international player, Disna, which became one of the core of the team.

Although there have been some progress in results, Berlin has not won the Bundesliga championship so far. The reason is very simple, because the Bundesliga is almost monopolized by Bayern Munich, and Hertha Berlin's financial resources can never be compared with Bayern. In addition, many players in the field are always poached by other Bundesliga clubs. It is already a good thing for Hertha Berlin to be in the Bundesliga.

These are historical messages. Obviously, these are not too important.

What worries Heinx is the current ranking of Hertha Berlin: the 17th place in the Bundesliga. This ranking may be just a joke in the middle of the league, but now that the league has reached the end, the relegated team will perform better in order to win the relegation qualification. This is Heinke. The reason why I'm worried.
