The combination of Miaud and Dembele in the front line is a deadly threat to any Bundesliga team.

The three are not slow. Although Dembele is not as tall as Yonex and Aubameyang, he is the fastest among the three.

Once Dembele bursts out and attacks the opponent's defense, Aubameyang, who is tall and strong, and Yonex, who has erratic movements, accurate passes and violent headers, are very deadly to any team.

If you keep an eye on any one of them, the other two can also make very threatening shots, which is absolutely terrifying in front of a relatively second-rate team.

Although the three did not score a goal in this attack, Tuchel's eyes lit up on the sidelines.

He had been thinking about how to match the front line before, and this cooperation of the three gave him inspiration.

He picked up the tactical board and started writing and drawing. Next, he would create the most impactful offensive line based on the characteristics of the three.

Three minutes later, Miaud and Dembele repeated the same trick. This time, Yonex seemed to be passing the ball, but he directly lobbed the ball to the goal.

Lossl made a great contribution this time. He barely managed to lift the ball out of the goal frame, and Dortmund won a corner kick.

At this time, the first half of the game had entered the injury time period, which meant that after this corner kick was taken, Dortmund would end the first half of the game after completing this attack.

Dembele took a corner kick and directly lifted it to the 12-yard spot. Miyuan jumped up to compete for the header with the help of the tall Bale, but Bale had a pulling action that interfered with his jump height, and his head just brushed the football and headed the ball high.

As the ball flew out of the baseline, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half of the game.

Dortmund temporarily led 1:0 in the first half. The players of both sides quickly returned to the locker room to rest. The afternoon game was really uncomfortable.

Back in the locker room, the players were blinded by a neat row of bathtubs.

After seeing the ice buckets, the players couldn't wait to sit in them. This method can quickly relieve their local congestion and effectively relieve muscle fatigue.

At least two players were squeezed into one bathtub. Everyone was hissing and laughing to quickly cool down and replenish water. Tuchel on the stage was also reorganizing the tactical board.

After a few minutes, he would reallocate the tasks for the second half to Mioden and the other two.

This type of cold therapy can relieve physical fatigue and is a very good way to eliminate pain and swelling.

Of course, this is also for athletes after exercising in high temperatures. Ordinary people should never try it.

Five minutes later, the players who had recovered, wrapped in bath towels, sat in their seats and listened to the tactical arrangements of the head coach.

Tuchel looked at the players who were receiving massages and said,"Everyone performed very well in the first half. When attacking in the second half, Aubameyang, you should move your position forward, and Mignolet and Dembele should move back. The three of you should form a triangle offensive formation."

Soon after the halftime break, the players from both teams returned to the field and changed sides to continue the game.

After the Mainz players kicked the ball out, the Dortmund players quickly deployed their formations. As the players from both teams moved on the field, Shi Qing in the live studio exclaimed in surprise.

Lu Ming looked over in confusion. Shi Qing pointed at the screen and asked:

"Lao Lu, did you notice that Dortmund's formation in the second half was a little different?"

After hearing Shi Qing's words, Lu Ming also stared at the screen and watched carefully.

"Do you mean that Aubameyang's position has been moved forward?"

Shi:"Yes, you see that Dortmund's three forwards have now formed a triangle formation, with Michy Batshuayi and Dembele standing further back to better support their midfield teammates."

Lu:"What you said, I also noticed, and their positions are closer to the ribs. Now the entire Dortmund's frontcourt has formed a diamond formation, which effectively makes up for the disconnection between the two wings when attacking in a 433 formation." Shi

:"Yes, I wonder what kind of miraculous effect this on-the-spot change of formation will have."

Lu:"Look, now Mainz's attack has been intercepted by Dortmund's backcourt, let's take a look at this counterattack."

After the conversation between the two commentators, the audience's attention was also focused on Dortmund's offensive formation on the screen.

Of course, more fans are just watching to see if this attack can score a goal.

Miyuan and Dembele are both left-footed players. When the formation changes from defense to offense, the two of them often interfere with the opponent's judgment through unexpected left-foot passes.

As the fulcrum of the midfield, Rod passed the ball to Paslak who came up to the side. After controlling the ball at the sideline, the latter passed it diagonally to Dembele who was making a forward run.

Dembele stopped the ball with his left foot, and after attracting Mainz players to block it, he did not pass the ball, but suddenly passed it to Miyuan.

Miyuan, who was on the right side of the penalty area, unloaded the ball in front of him with his chest and directly He cut into the penalty area with the ball.

Aubameyang, who had rushed into the penalty area, suddenly turned around and rushed out of the penalty area. Bale, who was marking him, immediately chased after him.

Aubameyang, who rushed to the edge of the penalty area, suddenly stopped abruptly. While he was stopping abruptly, Miyuan's pass also arrived.

Aubameyang shot sideways, and the football went straight to the lower left corner of the goal.

It was a pity that the shot went wide of the goal frame, but it scared Lossl and a group of defensive players into a cold sweat.

What was going on? Why was Dortmund's offensive coordination so smooth in the second half?

From stealing the ball to shooting, it was like an assembly line, without any hindrance.

What tactical adjustments did they make in the midfield?

The two wings fully utilized their respective advantages. Aubameyang, who was in the front, only needed to wait for an opportunity to get rid of the defensive players. The Mainz players on the field were not happy, and coach Martin off the field was also a little confused by Dortmund's changes.

Only Tuchel showed his signature smile and walked to his seat with his hands in his pockets.

He was very satisfied with the performance of the three. As long as he adjusted the players in the midfield and stabilized the defense, he would be able to fight no matter what kind of opponent he faced this season. Even if he encounters powerful Real Madrid, Barcelona, and the old powerhouses of the Premier League, he is not afraid.

However, the problem of injuries is also something he needs to consider. He has enough chips in his hand this season, and he only needs to let the players play their respective roles.

The game on the field continued, and the sun was obviously not as hot as it was at the beginning.

The offense organized by Mainz was completely broken. He could not penetrate Dortmund's last line of defense.

He could only choose long shots from the outside, but unfortunately he could not penetrate Burki's ten fingers.

The game was deadlocked for a while, and Tuchel began to make substitutions. He first replaced Castro, who was over-exhausted, with young player Weigl.

Running violently in the high temperature, the 29-year-old Castro could not keep up with the rhythm of the whole team, and it was understandable to replace him early.

When Castro left the court, the fans at the scene gave him warm applause and recognized his wonderful performance on the court.

Castro also raised his hands and clapped his hands in response to the fans at the scene.

After the substitution, Weigl, who had just come on the court, showed his vitality. He actively fought and defended, integrating into the offensive and defensive rhythm of the whole team.
