Pintus replied without much thought: "If we continue to play like this at the beginning of the second half, many of their players will not be able to withstand it after 20 minutes."

As a physical fitness coach, what he observes most during the game is the running data of both sides.

Then he analyzed the players' physical condition through comprehensive data, estimated the consumption of both parties, and made predictions about the future situation.

This is a very important assistant for Pan Yi and can help the head coach make correct judgments and decisions.

Of course, Pan Yi believes that there will be similar reports from Manchester City.

Therefore, Pellegrini should also consider how to reasonably allocate Manchester City's physical energy instead of really consuming it all in 20 minutes.

After all, a football match lasts for 90 minutes, and now there is still 45 minutes left to play in the second half!

Therefore, in the second half, Pellegrini could only let the players attack for another ten minutes at most, and then slow down the pace to save energy.

Otherwise, it would be fatal if he was kicked to death early.

And this is exactly the opportunity Pan Yi has been waiting for.

After returning to the locker room, even though he was still one goal behind, Pan Yi praised the team's performance in the first half.

Everyone played really well.

Although Manchester City had many offensive opportunities in the first half, apart from conceding a free kick, Hamburg's defensive layout against Manchester City was still very successful.

Even Dzeko and Aguero did not get a good chance in positional battles.

And Dzeko's best chance was when Rudiger blocked the angle of his shot.

This shows how successful the Hamburg center back was in marking Dzeko, and how well the Hamburg players implemented Pan Yi's tactics.

After the praise, Pan Yi said: "I have good news for you, Manchester City can't break out fast."

All the players looked at Pan Yi, waiting for him to continue speaking.

They are all too familiar with Pan Yi's confident look!

This is the look he has every time the changes on the court are under his control and he feels that he has a chance to win.

Therefore, although Hamburg is still lagging behind, the expressions of the players are the same as that of the young head coach. They have no doubts or worries at all, but are full of confidence and fighting spirit!

"In the second half, they can at most attack once, and then it will be our game time." Pan Yi said with a smile in a relaxed tone.

"As I said before the game, the winner between us and Manchester City will come in the second half, and we are the winner and they are the loser."

"They may feel that a one-goal lead is not safe for them, so they want to score another one."

"Unfortunately, my idea is not to lose a goal in the away game and then come back to the home court to come back. I want to win!"

Hearing this, the players couldn't help but clench their hands.

Facing Manchester City away from home at the Etihad Stadium, only a head coach like Pan Yi would dare to say so boldly that he wants to win.

And now Hamburg is still lagging behind!

This also shows how confident Pan Yi is in his tactics and team execution.

After all, in the knockout stages of the Champions League, actually losing one goal, or even two goals, in an away game cannot be considered a real loss in the strict sense.

This is a 180-minute game. If we lose in 90 minutes, it is just a "half-time deficit."

There are so many examples of losing away games and coming back at home, too numerous to mention, that it has almost become a normal pattern.

And if you can score a goal in the away game, your advantage will be even greater when you return to home, and the chance of a comeback will be much greater.

But it's obvious that Pan Yi's ambitions don't stop there.

He just wants to win Manchester City in the away game, then achieve a double win, and then advance to the next level!

"When Manchester City's physical strength is declining and they are ready to slow down, it is time for us to counterattack." Pan Yi said again.

"When the time comes, listen to me throw the cup as a signal... No, watch me start to make substitutions, and everyone will attack immediately!"

"Kolarov's offense was particularly fierce in the first half, and his consumption was also very high. We must focus on his side."

"It just so happens that our right-side attack has always been very fierce...you continue to follow Vardy to create a strong offensive side and beat him to death completely!"

"Of course, the other side can't be completely let go. If it's time to move, move it, and kill them in the way they are best at..."

While talking, it was almost half time, and Pan Yi had arranged all the arrangements that should be made.

"Everyone!" Pan Yi clapped vigorously and greeted everyone.

Hamburg's players also stood up and gathered in front of Pan Yi.

"I still say the same thing, we will definitely advance to the quarterfinals! Manchester City is very strong, but our Hamburg is not hellokitty either!"

"We have killed the super death group, what else can't be done?" When Pan Yi spoke, his eyes scanned every player in front of him.

The matches are played one by one, and the confidence is accumulated step by step.

He told everyone when the team was divided into the group of death that as long as they could get out of such a group, there would be no opponents to fear.

This is the boost of confidence that each victory brings to the team!

What's more, Hamburg continued to win consecutively in the group of death, qualifying two rounds ahead of schedule!

"For the second half, it's up to you! Let's defeat Manchester City and go home happily!"

After saying that, Pan Yi stretched out his right hand.

The players came over one after another, folded their hands on Pan Yi's, and shouted in unison:

"come on, come on, come on!"

…

In the stands of the Etihad, in addition to Manchester City's senior management paying attention to the game, in another corner, there was a shining bald head who was also watching quietly.

He is the owner of Tottenham Hotspur, Daniel Levy.

Today he brought the team's director, Italian Franco Baldini, to watch the Champions League round of 16 match.

And the purpose of their coming here is of course not to simply enjoy a football match.

They are here for Pan Yi!

Since Levi took over Tottenham, this North London team has gradually transformed from a mid-table team into a strong team that can compete with major giants.

In recent years, they have even entered the BIG6 series and become a force that cannot be ignored in the Premier League.

The increase in strength also brings about an increase in ambition.

Levi is no longer satisfied with the team just competing for the Champions League spot, he has begun to covet the Premier League championship!

In the last season, that is, the 2012-13 season, Levy invited former Chelsea coach Villas-Boas to replace Harry Redknapp as the team's new coach, but in the end Tottenham still lost 1 point.

Poor, ranking fifth behind arch-rival Arsenal, and missing out on qualifying for the Champions League.

In the summer window of this season, Tottenham sold Bale, raised a huge sum of 100 million pounds, and introduced Chadli, Soldado, Capoue, Ziriches, Lamela, Eriksen and other talents.

Send out stars, but the team suffers consecutive humiliations.

They were beaten 0-6 by Manchester City in the away game, suffered an upset loss to West Ham United 0-3 at home, and were swept by Liverpool with a score of 0-5 in the 16th round. All these became the triggers for Villas-Boas's dismissal.

After 16 rounds of Premier League games, Tottenham ranked 7th in the Premier League with a mediocre score of 8 wins, 3 draws, 5 losses and 27 points.

Because of this, despite Tottenham qualifying with six consecutive wins in the Europa League group stage, Villas-Boas was fired.

Levy asked assistant coach Tim Sherwood to serve as the interim coach to lead Tottenham, but of course he still hopes to have a truly famous coach to lead Tottenham into a truly wealthy team!

In his eyes, the position of head coach has become the biggest obstacle to Tottenham's development.

After Sherwood led the team, Tottenham's results still showed no improvement, which made Levi even more unable to sit still.

And he naturally set his sights on Pan Yi, the most popular talented young coach in world football in the past two years!

This young coach of the Dragon Kingdom came out of nowhere in 2012. He first served as an assistant coach to help Milan win the Triple Crown, and then went to Germany to lead Hamburg to the Bundesliga runner-up. He led the way this season and also reached the top 16 of the Champions League.

.

Of course, Levi didn't just look at Pan Yi's results.

He also found many people in the industry to learn about it, and many people were full of praise for Pan Yi, thinking that he is one of the best head coaches in world football now.

The key is that his coaching style is very likable, he is good at offense, and he can build a strong team within a certain budget.

Burgers are the best proof of that.

So today, Levi was full of expectations and brought director Baldini to the Etihad to watch the match between Manchester City and Hamburg.

He hopes to get to know Pan Yi up close.

The results of it……

The game has now entered the second half for more than ten minutes.

Whether it's the score or the scene, Hamburg is quite passive, and this Pan Yi doesn't seem to be as magical as everyone says.

Levi just wanted to ask: "Is this the talented young coach you are talking about? A young coach who is good at attacking? Isn't this just an ordinary team being beaten by Manchester City? Just like Manchester United!"

Levi was indeed doubtful in his heart.

Because the British media always likes to exaggerate about their own players, such as British stars, playing football all day long, but in the end they are not very good.
