Section 335 Dead Bayern
The Wolfsburg players never dreamed that when the game came to the end, they would be beaten by Porto with a fairy ball against the sky. In this game, they were already quite careful, but Ronaldo's magic kick still made Wolfsburg taste the bitter fruit of defeat.
The 1-2 score lasted until the end of the match. While Wolfsburg's idea was to use a draw to gain some advantage in their second round, the ruthless truth showed them that they were not the lucky side. Porto's talents have dealt a heavy blow to Wolfsburg, forcing them to carry more pressure when playing at home.
"Wolfsburg is still a new team in the Champions League after all, and they don't have much of an advantage in the Champions League. Although they played well in the group stage, when it came to the real-for-tat Champions League match, Wolfsburg had a big problem. Against Porto, they played too conservatively, and the whole game did not really form an effective containment of Porto's talents, and losing the game can be said to be a matter of course. ”
After the game, the media also commented on Wolfsburg's loss. In their opinion, this game Wolfsburg lost in terms of tactics and experience. After all, if you are simply a player, Gao Shunyao of Wolf Castle plays just as well, but their tactical thinking seems to be wrong from the beginning.
"Maybe what Wolfsburg need is to learn from Bayern Munich how to play better in the Champions League. Compared to the defeat at Wolfsburg, Bayern used their quality to prove what is the best team. ”
At the same time, if anything, there is nothing that can be said to be a disaster. Then there is good news from Bayern. Bayern and Wolfsburg's Champions League tie took place in the same week, with Bayern beating Arsenal 3-1 away when Wolfsburg lost. It was a shocking victory, and it was definitely the one thing that had the biggest impact on Wolfsburg.
After the Champions League match, Wolfsburg is about to face Bayern. And this matchup between the first and second in the league originally touched the hearts of thousands of people. Bayern were three points ahead of Wolfsburg, but lost to Wolfsburg at home. Wolfsburg has a great convenience in returning to the home stadium this time, and it was time to take advantage of the situation to chase and destroy Bayern in one go.
However, at this time. Wolfsburg suffered a morale blow from the defeat away, while Bayern won 3-1 away. Three away goals, such a result not only allowed Bayern to basically enter the last eight, but also returned to the league against Wolfsburg, they are even more imposing.
"After a 3-1 win against Arsenal. Bayern Munich have been more sure of their quality as one of Europe's top teams. In the entire Champions League this year, except for Real Madrid and Barcelona, other teams cannot pose a threat to Bayern. Bayern's regret last year will have to be made up for this year anyway. The best way to redeem himself after the Sanya King is naturally the Triple Crown, and Bayern has the strength to hit the Triple Crown this year. ”
Bayern's victory in the knockout rounds of the Champions League, against Premier League giants Arsenal, made them the heroes of the Bundesliga immediately after the game. After the game, the media also began to re-fancy Bayern to win away from Wolfsburg. Got the win. After all, no matter how good Wolfsburg is, there is still a certain gap compared to Arsenal. If Bayern can beat Arsenal away, then why can't they beat Wolfsburg away?
At this point, it seems that the media is no longer willing to remember that Wolfsburg also beat Arsenal away. After all, it was a matter of the group stage, and the victory or defeat in the group stage has nothing to do with the overall situation, who knows how much real effort Arsenal used? No matter how well Wolfsburg played in the group stage, they lost in the knockout round, which was enough to make the media unhappy.
Therefore, after the game, the media also had a variety of discourses. Some people think that Wolfsburg is the second team after Dortmund, and a team like theirs does not play well in the Champions League, and they are desperate in the league, which is completely a cancer in the Bundesliga. And some people think that Wolfsburg lost this game, which is very undeserved, and they should apologize to the fans and ask for forgiveness from the fans.
Originally, before this game, Wolfsburg had always been the hero who dared to challenge Bayern's royal power this season, but with this game, Wolfsburg has become a guy who creates obstacles for the hero team of the Bundesliga. The strength of a Champions League has caused Wolfsburg to lose the support of many media, and the media have turned against each other and began to speak to Bayern.
Such an approach will not affect the strength of Wolfsburg, but suddenly there is no one to support him, and it is unknown whether the morale of Wolfsburg will be affected. After all, after losing, no one comforts you but a scolding, and anyone who is replaced will feel very uncomfortable.
However, contrary to the media's expectations, the Wolfsburg players at this time were not particularly demoralized. Although they immediately became the target of bombardment by the German media after returning to Germany, they have always turned a deaf ear to the comments of the media.
"Overnight, we became villains in the Bundesliga. After losing this game, it seems that we should not want to win the championship anymore. ”
For the media, the Wolfsburg players are just laughing. The media is so fickle that listening to them can always be unpleasant. However, a team that aims to win the title cannot be affected by a few nonsense words in the media, and the Wolfsburg players know what they aim for, and they also know how much advantage and disadvantage they have now.
After all, this situation was also expected.
Although the Bundesliga has four teams playing in the Champions League this year, in the eyes of many media, the team that is really likely to challenge for the Champions League will only be Bayern and not other teams.
Schalke and Wolfsburg are relatively weak teams after all, there is a big gap in their strength, in the group stage, they can play well, but in the knockout round, once everyone gets serious, they meet those top Champions League powerhouses, I am afraid that they are all fierce and unlucky.
Borussia Dortmund's quality is good, but last year's bottom of the group was hard to forget. If a team has ever thought of giving up the Champions League and defending the league, it will be difficult to wash away its reputation. Although it seems that Dortmund has stopped focusing on the league this year. They haven't finished in the top four in the league yet, but the Champions League has been playing well, but. With such a criminal record, how can any media dare to bet that they will win the championship?
Therefore, the Bundesliga team that really has the impact of the Champions League title seems to be only Bayern. Therefore, Wolfsburg has expected it from a very early on, and as Bayern play better and better in the Champions League, the pressure on Wolfsburg will increase.
The media is definitely biased towards teams that are good on the outside. It's a normal thing to do, and they're doing the right thing. And how much criticism was given to Dortmund last year at the bottom of the group, they have seen with their own eyes what kind of situation they will face this year. Naturally, they guessed.
However, Wolfsburg doesn't care much about this situation, and if they really care about the comments of the media, Magath can't arrange their own team to defend when they are away from home in the Champions League. Wait to go back to the home court to fight it out.
The Wolfsburg players have long made up their minds. The media says everything as a fart. Borussia Dortmund played worse than them in the Champions League last year, and they were under more pressure from the media, didn't they survive the same? In the end, they still received a lot of praise. Compared to Bayern, Dortmund's ability to withstand pressure is what they really need to learn.
As for the nagging from the media, Wolfsburg's response was also very simple, and in the face of the media's accusations against Wolfsburg, Magath expressed his opinion with his characteristic attitude.
"We know what we're doing. We are very happy with our results. We don't think we have anything to apologize for, it's not over yet. We haven't been eliminated yet and there is no need for the Wolfsburg players to apologise for a momentary defeat. Now the most important thing for us is to win against Bayern, and we don't care about anything else. ”
If you lose away from home in such an important game as the Champions League knockout round, you will always be a little embarrassed to return to the league. The media has been comparing the wins and losses of the two teams, asking Wolfsburg to apologize to the fans and make a statement about their failures. But apologizing at this time is tantamount to admitting that you are a loser, what kind of football do you play before you fight?
Now is not the time to apologize, and Magath knows that. Therefore, he also used his arrogant and unreasonable attitude to directly block the media back. He refused to admit his mistake and made it clear that he wanted to smash Bayern in the league. As soon as such words came out, he directly drew all his attention to himself, and let the media point the finger at him.
In the face of Magath's attitude, the media suddenly found that they had nothing to do. If someone else dares to make such an offense with the media, the media will also be very unhappy. But if it's Magath...... He's always been so arrogant and unreasonable.
This man's temper is stinky and hard, and he has always been the most unreasonable person. Other coaches in the league respect the media, but he always thinks about that. It has long been a daily routine for the media to hack him, and he is also comfortable with it, and it seems to be a bit difficult to find him trouble.
For this hard stinky stone, the media can only curse viciously, hoping that Wolfsburg will be defeated by Bayern, so that Wolfsburg will also know what is the strength of the top team.
The media has a lot of confidence in Bayern. After all, they have just beaten Arsenal, and their morale is like a rainbow and their strength is strong. In contrast, Wolfsburg actually lost to Porto and was out of form.
But Wolfsburg themselves are confident in themselves, and their reason is also because they have just lost to Porto.
"Against Porto, we deliberately kept the game and saved enough energy for ourselves. And this one is back at home against Bayern Munich and we have to play our full strength. Bayern just played a fierce game with Arsenal, and under 3-1, the physical consumption is not small. And we sacrificed a game win in exchange for going all out against Bayern. ”
When it comes to the game, Magath's view is different from that of the media, "Our morale will not be exhausted by a loss, but their physical strength may be insufficient because of a fierce battle!" In the last game, it was them and not us who had the loss. Compared to them, we have a greater advantage. And now, let's turn the advantage into a victory! (To be continued.) )
