Chapter 497: A Critical Match

There are many reasons for Bayern's defeat, Bayern has less attack on the right, and it is really no wonder that Muller is at this point.

His dribbling ability, speed and ability to create chances in one-on-one or even one-to-many situations are good, but Muller cannot replace Robben in this aspect.

The tactical choice of attacking the right side, on the one hand, Bayern is out of helplessness, on the other hand, when crossing, there can be one more person in the penalty area to grab points, if Muller crosses, Bayern's attack line is only Lewandowski has a better ability to grab points.

In the face of Real Madrid's stacked defense, Muller's characteristics of tearing apart the opponent's defense are not easy to play.

Focusing on the left flank also limits Kimmich's ability to play in attack, and although Robben is good at wasting chances, at least he can create a lot of chances and lead Kimmich's attack.

Kimmich has recycled his position in the middle of the game, and if Robben doesn't cut inside, it will be difficult for Kimmich to come down and his characteristics will be difficult to play.

At the same time, Raphinha's assist ability is also weaker than Alaba's, so the left side attack can only rely more on Ribery's solo play.

Xavi Martinez is a very good defensive midfielder, but his characteristics are not well used in this kind of game, because Real Madrid have given up control of the midfield to a certain extent, and the hardness he can provide in the midfield is also very limited.

Thiago and James are similar in their characteristics, both of them can protect the ball in small areas and distribute and transfer the ball, with Rodriguez providing the assist and Thiago also contributing some good passes after the opening.

However, their ability is somewhat repetitive, especially under Bayern's tactical system of playing on the wing, if there are one or two more people in the penalty area to grab points, the effect will be much better.

Lewandowski's presence in this game is not very strong, but because of this, it cannot be said that Lewandowski does not work hard in this game, even if it is Ronaldo, except for the shot after the handball, there is no sense of presence in this game.

Lewandowski's connection with the midfielder was blocked by Real Madrid, and the pure scramble for a header in the penalty area is not Lewandowski's characteristic.

In summary, the above points are the reasons why Bayern's players cannot be effective, in addition, Bayern got a lot of set-piece opportunities in this game, and also created several chances.

The missed opportunities also show that the Bayern players are still a little impatient in their hearts, of course, the result of the game is sometimes determined by a few details.

After the game, Kodic approached Jones, who thought he was going to talk to him because he wasn't in great shape.

"Jones is going to have the next fight and we can defend the title, and I'm very excited right now, especially you, you're only 18 years old and you get to where you are, and I don't know who to talk to, so I'm coming to talk to you."

Jones was stunned for a moment and said: "Coach, I thought you were going to criticize me, I was not in good shape in the last game, and I didn't score." ”

Kodic smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said: "It's normal for players to have ups and downs, you've had a season of highlights, you just didn't score in a game.

Now you've scored almost 90 goals without a season finished, and you've shocked anyone with your performances, and if you want to be criticised for your performance, the strikers all over the world are committing suicide. ”

"How can I be so good!" Jones said embarrassedly.

Kodic laughed: "What's so embarrassing, we must win the next game so that we can focus on the Champions League!" ”

Jones replied loudly, "No problem, coach!" ”

…………

On the topic of Jones' lack of a goal in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, the English media said: "Jones has finally stopped scoring consecutive goals and faded the magic on his body, which is a signal that the team has found a way to deal with him!"

He's going to be back as a normal star, and Jones finally didn't score, which is something to cheer about, which shows that he can't do everything either! ”

Liverpool Daily said: "Jones has stopped scoring in a row, his weakness in the game against Liverpool is unmistakable, and it seems that as long as he limits Jones at his speed, there is nothing he can do!" ”

The Times said: "A miraculous record has finally come to an end, and this season Jones is sure to score as long as he plays, scoring in 52 consecutive games, and Jones' record for consecutive goals is fixed at 52 games!" ”

'Chelsea and Liverpool drew 4-4 and Jones was in a slump and didn't score a goal!' Many British media even cheered for it, which also fully shows how much impact he has had on the British media, and it is a miracle that a player has no way to criticize them for a season.

…………

However, none of this will affect Jones and Chelsea, as the next game will be a crucial game for them to defend their league title!

A match in the 35th round of the Premier League was played at Stamford Bridge, with Chelsea at home to Huddersfield, a match that attracted more Chelsea fans.

After the first 34 rounds of the league, Chelsea have played 34 games, with 31 wins and three draws, and are in first place in the league with 96 points.

Huddersfield have a record of 9 wins, 9 draws and 16 defeats, with 36 points and 15th in the table.

Chelsea and Huddersfield Town have met 65 times in their history, with the Blues winning 29, drawing nine and losing 27.

The last time the two teams met was in the 17th round of the Premier League this season, when Chelsea won 3-1 at Huddersfield.

In the league standings, Chelsea have 96 points and Manchester City have 84, and for Chelsea, a win in this game will be all it takes to successfully defend the league title!

Against Liverpool in the last round, Costa and Eden Hazard played brilliantly, scoring twice and contributing to Chelsea's equaliser.

With Costa continuing to start for Chelsea against Huddersfield, Olivier Giroud and Willian will find it difficult to shake Costa's and Eden Hazard's main positions, and Chelsea fans will expect Costa and Hazard to continue their magical performances.

Chelsea starting line-up, formation 3421: Thibaut Courtois; Andreas Christensen, Cahill, Azpilicueta; Alonso, Cesc Fabregas, N'Golo Kante, Moses; Hazard, Jones; Costa

This is the absolute main lineup of Chelsea this season, and in this crucial game, Kodic is naturally the main starter!

Huddersfield formation 352: Lesser; Zanka, Schindler, Kongele; Smith, Adair, Jonay, Hogg, Mooy, Malone; Meunier, Pritchard

Chelsea picked up the tempo of the game from the start of the game and Jones will now have to find his form with his goals, having scored every game since he played in the Premier League.

Scoring goals has become a habit, when he didn't score in the last game, he always felt that something was wrong, and coupled with the ridicule of the British media, he wanted to score even more.

In the 10th minute of the first half, Alonso assisted on the side and made a cross!

Costa, who was ambushed in the middle, battled with the opposition defender and the ball flicked over his head and flew backwards.

Jones looked at the football and the defender in front of him, his body shook to the right, and immediately started to the left front, and ran towards the football!
