Chapter 156: Costa's Hanging Shot!
In Bayern's offensive system, the two wings of Ribery and Robben are the team's sharpest and most powerful weapons, and in last season's best offensive combination selection, the "Robery" combination ranked first in European football, which proves the strength of Bayern's two wings.
However, in this game, Robben was unable to play, and it was the Swiss teenager Shakiri who replaced the Dutchman. Although Shakiri is young, he has a strong impact, but it is still unknown whether he can replace Robben's role.
In other words, the offensive responsibility of this game will fall on the head of Ribery alone.
Two threatening flanks have become one, and Bayern's attacking firepower has inevitably been greatly weakened.
As for Boateng, the German central defender, who is about to turn 24 years old, has become the absolute main force in Bayern Munich's backline since last season. It is also because of his rise that Belgian star Van Bitten, who once made great contributions to Bayern, is now squeezed into the bench by him.
The most consistent central defender at the back could not play, and Bayern had to use the veteran Van Bitten. However, Van Bitten is old and has not played many games this season, so it remains to be seen what his form will be.
It can be said that Bayern has hidden dangers at both offensive and defensive ends in this game, and even if Heynckes is confident and big, he does not dare to pack a ticket and say that he will be able to knock down Atletico Madrid, who is in good form, away from home.
So his goal is very practical, which is to win the draw.
Bayern's tactics in this game are to defend solidly and look for opportunities to play quick counter-attacks. When the player lineup is not complete, and it is an away game, it is really a good choice to defend and counterattack. Ribery has a super impact ability on the wings, plus Mario Lee. At Gomez's high point, playing defense may not be able to receive good results.
Bayern's calculations are good, but there are always accidents of one kind or another on the football field. They wanted to play at a slow pace, but Atletico didn't do as they wanted, and the home team, as always, pressed all over the game from the start of the game, and began to scramble in every corner of the stadium.
Bayern had possession for less than two minutes before possession changed hands. Qin Shou and Garcia teamed up in the midfield to steal Kroos successfully, and Kroos was overturned to the ground by Garcia's small movements, but the referee Atkinson didn't say anything - his vision was blocked and he didn't see it, so he naturally decided that it was a reasonable scramble.
That's when the accident happened.
Bayern Munich wanted to play Atletico Madrid's defensive counterattack, but they didn't expect that not long after the game time, they were beaten by Atletico Madrid with a quick attack.
After Atletico successfully broke off the ball, the football was handed over to Qin Shou's feet for the first time.
Because the game was in the tentative stage, Bayern's line was quite neat, even Kroos was suddenly cut off, it did not make their formation disordered, and Atletico Madrid's side did not have many people in the front field at all, except for Griezmann and Costa running forward, no other players followed up.
In this case, it is not suitable to move forward quickly.
But Qin Shou just sent the football to the front. He just glanced at the field and kicked the ball over.
Qin Shou's long pass was very imaginative, and it seemed that he wanted to dribble the ball back, but he suddenly turned around and rubbed the football with the outside instep.
The ball scurries forward in an eerie curved trajectory, reaching its highest point in the air, and then bending and falling rapidly. And the ball also has a clear and strong spin, so after the ball hits the ground, it continues to jump forward like a spring, and it jumps not low.
This pass was beyond everyone's expectations, to be exact, after the pass landed, it bounced up and rushed forward to take it, which made everyone shout incredible.
The football landed in an open space about 28 meters in front of the penalty area, and when Bayern's defenders reacted and wanted to rush over to clear the siege, the football jumped up violently and jumped forward at a very fast speed, and the landing point was Costa's running route.
The football was like a nimble little snake that drilled through Bayern's defense, and like a mischievous spring ball, it bounced high on the ground, just above Costa's head.
"This ...... What kind of long pass is this...... I think this was an accident, if Qin really did it on purpose, then his mastery and use of footwork, as well as his unbridled imagination, are absolutely amazing! ”
"It's an incredible scene, it turns out that football can still be passed like this...... China Qin really taught us a good lesson, and he has raised his posture! ”
"Whether it's intentional or not, football has found Costa, and now it's up to Costa's to do it...... Oo......oo
If Qin Shou's unconventional long pass surprised the fans at the scene, then the next scene made the fans stunned.
Van Bitten rushed over and squeezed Costa with his body, Costa in turn carried it with his body, the two of them were entangled, the football began to fall, Costa leaned on the Bayern central defender, clicked the football with his head, leaned around, borrowed force, and hooked the football out with his right foot sideways.
Costa also had no choice, there was no point in front of him to pass the ball, Van Bitten entangled him again, he even had difficulty getting the ball, so he simply grabbed the gap and came to shoot on goal, as for the result, he didn't think about it for the time being. You can't let the opponent get entangled, and then be surrounded by the Bayern defenders to cut off the ball - the same is the loss of the ball, shooting and being cut off are two concepts, and the worst can delay a little time, so that the opponent's quick counterattack after getting the ball can't play.
It's just that what Costa didn't expect was that his shot that came out of his sense was ultimately turned into a goal.
Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer stood in front of the small penalty area, and he was almost close to the big penalty area. He has a large range of activities, often staged a good show of rushing out of the penalty area to clear the siege, many netizens on the Internet have joked, "striker Neuer", "midfielder Neuer" and "defender Neuer", referring to Neuer likes to attack everywhere, to paraphrase a colloquialism, although he is a goalkeeper, but he has an attacking heart that is not lost to the striker.
This is both an advantage and a disadvantage.
At some point, that's the Achilles' heel.
Like at this moment.
When Qin Shou passed for a long time, Neuer took a few steps forward, if it wasn't for Van Biteng rushing out, maybe the "unprofessional" goalkeeper would have rushed to the top with a beautiful fish leap by himself...... Of course, it is to break the siege with a fish leap.
When he saw Van Bitten rushing over and entangled with Costa, Neuer paused and became a spectator with some depression. Only in the next moment, before he could react, the football rushed out from above the entangled two, and then, in the direction of the goal, it rushed extremely fast, and then fell......
Looking at the trajectory, it was clearly heading towards the upper left corner of the goal.
Neuer was stunned for a moment, and then showed his superhuman reflexes. Standing on the edge of the penalty area, he moved quickly and backwards, but he still couldn't keep up with the speed of the ball's fall.
Neuer, who couldn't retreat, gritted his teeth ruthlessly, threw his body backwards in the retreat, and raised his right hand high, trying to lift the falling football out.
His efforts were in vain, and the ball passed less than 10 centimeters above his right palm. When Neuer hit the ground hard, the ball fell into the net almost simultaneously.
This unexpected hanging door, an unexpected goal, made the Calderón stadium silent. Not to mention the away fans, even the home fans were in shock, with surprises and incredibly complicated expressions on their faces.
Qin Shou stood near the middle circle, also speechless. In fact, he did want to find Costa with a long pass, but after the ball was passed, he found that he had less force. It's just a blessing that after the ball hits the ground, it continues to bounce high and move forward, and finally finds Costa.
However, when Costa was entangled by Van Bitten, Qin Shou felt that this attack was probably over. Van Bitten's physical fitness is not lost to Costa, and Costa is even more squeezed to the point that it is difficult to even turn around, let alone control the ball well and turn around.
But no one expected that Costa would use an almost juggling move, tap the football with his head, and then shoot with his hook foot...... How unreliable is this, it's just a big luck.
The most speechless thing is that this great luck hit it, and it was really special.
Qin Shou shook his head speechlessly, but Costa reacted, his face first showed a look of disbelief, then it turned into ecstasy, and then, taking off his jersey, revealing his strong muscles, he roared and ran in celebration. And the other Atletico players also rushed forward, shouting along with him, and the excitement was boundless.
“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! The ball is in! It was Diego who scored the goal...... Costa...... Although it seems that there is a lot of luck involved, it ...... It's still a great lob shot! ”
“1:0! Atletico Madrid's luck was on the charts, and Costa's lob shot gave them a perfect start! ”
'It's a brilliant lobble, but Manuel Neuer has to take a lot of responsibility for the goal he conceded, and it's because he's in a position up front that it happened!
"Luck is also a necessary factor on the football pitch and in any case, Atletico Madrid took the lead, they took the lead in the two-legged contest!"
