This season, whether it is Wolfsburg or Bayern, their games have always been played on three fronts at the same time. In the league they have just decided the winners, and in the Champions League they have reached the last four together. And in the German Cup, they are also opponents in the next round, three fronts, two teams have been competing, now one front is over, the remaining two are still burning.

However, until now, when people talk about their games, people can remember the league and the Champions League very clearly, but the German Cup has always seemed to have no presence and people have always ignored it.

This kind of thing is also a kind of embarrassment in the cup, many times, for the strong team, the cup is a chicken rib: when a league team plays very well in the Champions League, and their top players are very eye-catching in the Champions League, the cup results, in the eyes of many people, are often irrelevant and can even be abandoned. And this season's German Cup is such an existence: it is tasteless to eat, it is a pity to abandon it, for the two teams that have reached the semi-finals in the Champions League, it no longer matters what kind of results they get in the cup.

This time, however, the meaning of the cup seems to be a little different. This season, the battle between Wolfsburg and Bayern Munich has lasted so long, which has also made this game a little different. Thinking that these two teams may win the Champions League, many people also want to see which of them will win in the cup competition at this time.

And most people also think that Bayern will be the one to win. Even, many people have already decided before the game has even started that Wolfsburg will give up the cup again in this game.

Their thoughts are not without reason. For one, Wolfsburg has a track record of doing so, and Wolfsburg has been in the past two seasons. They all gave up the cup. One time they gave up after meeting Bayern, and the other time, they simply lost in the first round. For the cup, they have always taken it very seriously, and no one knows whether they will work hard this time.

Secondly. Bayern and Wolfsburg have played each other twice this season. In those two meetings, Wolfsburg lost the game without resistance once, and the other time relied on the whole game to defend and get a 0-0 draw. In these two games, Wolfsburg did not play very beautifully, compared to the courage of beating Bayern twice last season, Wolfsburg was a little helpless in the face of Bayern this season, which is also something that everyone sees.

In terms of strength. Wolfsburg is already much inferior.

What's more, the current situation is even more unfavorable for Wolfsburg: for Bayern, they have already won the league this season, and he lost 0-100 in the next game, they are still the league champions, and for them, the remaining question is whether they are interested in trying to continue their unbeaten streak. Or an unbeaten season or something, they need to fight for it in the league. It's just some icing on the cake, it's better to have it, but it doesn't matter if you don't have it, it's no longer a situation where you have to fight.

So, not counting those league games, they've had a full season. There are only five games left at most, and if the Champions League and German Cup do not reach the final, there are only three games left. They had too much room to back down because of the early victory, and the rest of their schedule was very loose. Basically, it's all a week, and it's not too difficult at all. Such a schedule is enough for them to take advantage of.

In contrast, Wolfsburg's side is a little more problematic – although in theory, Wolfsburg are now facing exactly the same number of games as Bayern. They are about to meet Bayern in the German Cup, and they are in the semi-finals in the Champions League, they are all the same, but in the league, Wolfsburg is not as easy as Bayern.

Bayern won the title by a lot more than their opponents, and now they have peace of mind. And Wolfsburg has just experienced a loss and a draw, and Dortmund behind them has been silently approaching them. Unlike Wolfsburg, where the three lines have not been eliminated, Dortmund now only has one league to play, and the single-line battle makes them have a great advantage, and although the gap between the points and Wolfsburg is quite large, because Wolfsburg has lost five points in the last two games, they are also quickly approaching. If Wolfsburg don't work harder in the league, it is likely that Dortmund will fight them back in the final four rounds, so that Wolfsburg will eventually fall to third in the league table.

If they don't want to be beaten back by Borussia Dortmund, then Wolfsburg will have to devote some more energy to the league. And if the energy is scattered, then Wolfsburg is only afraid that in the Champions League and the German Cup, there is not much chance of winning: the strength is not as good as the opponent, and it has to take on heavier game tasks than the opponent, and Wolfsburg wants to win, it will be as difficult as the sky.

And when fighting on three fronts, what will Wolfsburg be the first to give up? It doesn't seem to be a problem. Compared with the Champions League and the league, the cup competition is a little underweight after all.

Therefore, in this game, most of the media doubted whether Wolfsburg had the strength to fight, and even whether it was in the mood to fight.

In their opinion, Wolfsburg is already weaker than Bayern, and now their players are injured, which makes it even worse. Bayern recently won the league championship and their morale is high, and this season, they have played a psychological advantage against Wolfsburg. Wolfsburg looks hard to win in every way. Because of this, before the German Cup started, people basically decided that Wolfsburg was the losing side, and even chose to give up.

However, there are still doubts about this. Because it is not impossible for Wolfsburg to abandon the other two fronts.

Halfway through the season, Wolfsburg was already very sure that its league goal was to be third in the league, so even if it was overtaken by Dortmund behind him, maybe Wolfsburg would not particularly care. Anyway, there is no champion in the league, how big is the difference between the second and third? Maybe Wolfsburg will also give up the league.

Moreover, Wolfsburg's league goal is true, but their Champions League goal is only the top four. Now that Wolfsburg have completed their tasks in the Champions League and the league ahead of schedule, they have no reason to work hard. Since they are all desireless, it is still difficult to say which side they will fight for.

How Wolfsburg will choose, people are still a little confused. At least for this time, the media is still talking.

In the eyes of some people, although it seems that the Champions League honor is more attractive, but the Champions League is more difficult to play after all, Atletico Madrid can even beat Barcelona, Wolfsburg meets them with more than lucky, now that the goal of the semi-finals has been achieved, it is better to rely on their current advantage over Dortmund and continue to maintain a leading position in the league. Others think that they have already reached this point anyway, and it would be a pity not to do more in the Champions League. The top three in the league is not much of a quest for Wolfsburg, and as long as they can maintain their current squad, they can become a strong contender for the top three in the league every season. But the Champions League final is a very rare thing for Wolfsburg: such as Manchester United's decline this season, Barcelona's fall, Chelsea's rebuild, and Bayern's chance to meet Real Madrid in advance are not available every season, and it would be a pity not to work hard to reach the Champions League final.

After all, if a team reaches the Champions League final, that's a decade of pride for the team, and even fans of other teams in the same league will be impressed. And in contrast, third or second in the league, who cares in particular? I'm afraid that in less than three years, my fans won't be bothered to remember how many places their team is.

Although Atletico Madrid is strong, Wolfsburg is definitely not completely without a chance of victory. In the opinion of some media, it would be best if Wolfsburg could continue to meet Bayern Munich in the Champions League final this year, and that would be the best thing.

All of a sudden, the media also had different opinions on how Wolf Castle should choose. Interestingly, in this discussion, people seem to be ignoring the game that is close at hand, not the Champions League or the league, but the German Cup, which is close at hand. In their opinion, the choice of Wolfsburg should mainly be those two, not the German Cup.

"These guys are really frustrating. Why do they think that we will definitely lose in the German Cup? It's true that Bayern is quite strong, but in the Champions League, didn't they just get disgraced by Paris? If Paris can do it, why can't we? Could it be that we can't win once against Bayern this season? ”

The Wolfsburg players don't particularly agree with the media's opinion, at least in the team, they are quite unhappy with it, and in the dressing room, they don't think they will definitely lose this game, in their opinion, they still have a lot of hope.

Their views are very different from those of the media, although the German Cup is not a big honor, but this is also a championship, and the current Wolfsburg players are not so bold as to look down on the championship. Last year, they gave up the German Cup for the Bundesliga title, but this year there is no other champion, why don't they work hard in the German Cup?

"We've seen Pep Guardiola's skills. After a season, we have almost figured out his methods. If you want to say that you will win, it is indeed a bit too much, but it is not a bad thing to try to see if you have this luck. On the league side, we are already doomed to have no champions, and on the Champions League side, it is also very difficult to win the championship. In contrast, this is already our most promising championship. Guys, if you don't want to spend the season empty, then let's give it a good fight. (To be continued.) )
