To be precise, the era of the Big Three has long ended at Bayern, but that is only the end in name, in fact, it is still the Big Three who are in charge at Bayern, and their accumulated prestige is too high, but now the Big Three are really finished.

Uli Hoeness was arrested by the German police last year for tax evasion, and was subsequently tried by the court and sentenced to three and a half years in prison, and is still in prison.

The current chairman of Bayern Munich is Karl Hopfner, who is also an old man who has worked in Bayern Munich for many years, of course, he was selected as Hoeness's replacement last year, which must also have the influence of the Big Three, and most of this role is transitional, and when Hoeness is released from prison, he will be considered the end of the chairman.

Hopfner is not young, and has now repeatedly stated that he will retire after Hoeness's return.

Now his task is equivalent to Hoeness optimistic about this home, Bayern Munich does not look at this home at all, as the world's well-known Bayern Munich, will never be satisfied with just the domestic arena, they last won the Champions League back to more than ten years ago, and now the team is up and down, fans are eager to lift the Champions League trophy again.

Bayern Munich invited the championship harvester Guardiola for this purpose, Bayern Munich is like a breakthrough in the domestic arena, but it is still not very satisfactory in the Champions League, it is impossible to say that the top management of Bayern Munich is 100% satisfied with Guardiola, and it can cost a lot of money after Guardiola arrives, but this result is somewhat unreasonable.

This season, he has touched the nerves of Bayern Munich's top management twice, the first time was the loss to Shakhtar Donetsk in the round of 16 away, this is a demon team, but for Bayern Munich to lose to Shakhtar Donetsk, it is simply a shame and unforgivable, and Guardiola's glorious impression at Bayern Munich's top management has dimmed a little.

The second time was at Anfield Stadium, Liverpool didn't look at last season, and this season introduced superstar Zhang Yuan, but people in the football circle are so stupid, everyone knows in private that Liverpool's level is also the level of a quasi-strong team, and saying that it is second-rate does not mean that it is first-class, it can only be said to be quasi-first-class.

In the face of such Liverpool, Bayern Munich was beaten all over the ground to find teeth, at that time Hopfner's face in the stands was quite bad, I admit that you did suffer a lot of injuries, but you are a famous coach, you have to come up with the tricks to defeat the enemy in the predicament, you can't lose the game and lose!

Hopfner has no idea of firing Guardiola, this candidate is not selected by him, it is selected by the Big Three, it is Hoeness, and in general Hopfner also wants to give a little more time, now his mind is not as good as thinking of the reversal miners not long ago, since they can reverse the minkhtars, why can't they reverse Liverpool, Liverpool is still lacking Zhang Yuan.

Hopfner appeared in the box very early, and after a while, Beckenbauer and Rummenigge also arrived, they began to talk about Guardiola in the small bar of the box, Guardiola is really Hoeness's strong advocacy, Beckenbauer has an objection to this, saying that these two occasionally have to contradict each other, to say that Beckenbauer is more successful as a player, but when it comes to the influence of Hoeness, the club's owner, cannot be underestimated.

"If he can't win Liverpool today, I think he should get out, and he should be out of the season at the end of the season!" Beckenbauer is now only the honorary chairman of Bayern Munich, but he also has the supreme authority of the emperor, and when he was chairman in the past, Hoeness and Rummenigge could not object, and it was simply a word.

"I'm very confident in this game, after a bad away game, Pep Guardiola should have come to his senses! I'm very confident in our quality! Franz, are you too worried?!" Hopfner did not answer, but Rummenigge, the chairman of Bayern Munich's board of directors, who is also the president of the European Club Association and is very powerful, did.

Everyone is an old friend, and they speak very directly.

"I think so, and hopefully he'll make good on his pre-match promise!" Hopfner said.

After losing to Liverpool away, Hopfner once had a face-to-face communication with Guardiola, the core of which was the battlefield problem of the Champions League, and the arrogant Guardiola did not defend at all, he assured in front of Hopfner that the team was 100% qualified.

And at the press conference before the game, Guardiola did not say anything low-key: "I know it's difficult, but I want to say that we will definitely complete the reversal at home, we will definitely be able to!"

Compared with Bayern Munich's high-level worries, Liverpool's top management is more relaxed but by no means very relaxed, Qian Huan's mood at this moment is nervous and excited, nervous because after all, Bayern Munich is Bayern Munich, Guardiola is a world-class coach, don't underestimate your enemies, excited because if Bayern Munich can be eliminated, it will be the first time he has entered the Champions League semi-finals since he joined Liverpool, and Liverpool has not entered the semi-finals for almost ten years.

Zhang Yuan still had some problems with his legs, he was not easy to move, so he sat in the stands early, waiting for the start of the game.

After waiting for a while, Qian Huan also came to sit down beside him, Qian Huan smiled and said, "I'm still a little nervous!"

"Nervous?!It's nothing, it's normal, in fact, I'm also worried!The crazy Bayern is also terrible!" Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "But I still have absolute confidence, because we have a two-goal advantage, and they can't easily close the gap!"

"Hopefully, I've thought about it for the past two days, and if we can win the Champions League, I've decided to have a very big parade in Liverpool and I'm going to have a concert for Liverpool fans to watch for free. Qian Huan began to fold his fingers to calculate his plans.

Brother, you are thinking too much, Zhang Yuan really wants to laugh when he hears it, Qian Huan's heart is also restless, he is eager to win the Champions League, you don't want to think about how much you invest, Abu has invested ten years to get the championship, as for Manchester City's investment so far, it hasn't even bubbled, and the championship is not so easy to get.

Zhang Yuan didn't want to dampen the enthusiasm of Young Master Qian, so he listened to him beside him!

At this time, the theme song of the Champions League began to sound, the players on both sides have come to the field, the game is about to start, Liverpool lacks Zhang Yuan, things are easy to do, Sturridge was placed in the middle, Sterling returned to the starting list, or 433 formation, and the personnel are almost the same.

Unlike Bayern Munich, Liverpool have too many useless people, Klopp is unlikely to rotate in major games, while Bayern Munich has suffered injury problems and many people are unavailable.

This game is still the same, Bayern Munich is still short of people, Guardiola's starting line has only changed from the previous game, from 433 to 4231, Lewandowski is in the center as the center forward, behind Gotze, Muller, Thiago, the midfielder is Lahm and Alonso continue to form an iron gate, the back line is similar to the last game, only Bad Stuber replaced Dante, who played badly on the field.

Guardiola stood on the sidelines with his head bareheaded, his expression was not very serious, in fact, he was nervous to death, in fact, he was under absolutely less pressure at Barcelona than Bayern, this is not Barcelona, he is not familiar with everything, if he doesn't want to leave Barcelona then he can not leave, even if he has a relationship with the high-level, but not here, even if he has a good relationship with the high-level, sometimes he has to leave.

Pep Guardiola has always had his own tactical ideas, he is not only a famous coach but also a tactical researcher, he is a lecturer in UEFA's coaching forum, in short, he is a prestigious celebrity coach, now he doesn't want to smash his signboard, in the first year of the Champions League, there is nothing to say that the new coach still needs to adapt, then the second year this can not get anything, even he is a little embarrassed.

If he can't beat Liverpool and can't get into the last four, then it will be a disaster for him personally.

Because of this pressure, Guardiola, who released cruel words before the game, was also nervous.
