Chapter 1333: Welcome Back to Allianz

While players from both sides were standing in the aisle, waiting to play, Lahm stood by the side of glory as the captain of Bayern Munich.

He didn't go up to shake hands with Rongguang and hug and chat, he stood in his team, and said to Rongguang without twisting his head: "I'm sorry, Rong, this time we are going to beat you and lift the championship trophy." ”

"It's easy to talk big, Philip." Rongguang also looked straight ahead, and said without looking at Ram.

"That's not a big deal, our tactics are very targeted!"

"Oh? How can it be targeted? ”

"Don't try to get information out of my mouth!"

Glory smiled slightly.

"Again, Philip, I'm not going to show mercy in the game." He then said.

"Of course, we couldn't be clearer about that." Ram nodded, he turned his head to look at Glory, and said:

"Welcome back to the Allianz Arena, Hon."

Outside, the live broadcast was broadcasting the names of both sides. Every Bayern Munich player was greeted with deafening cheers.

After all, it is Bayern Munich's home stadium, although the Champions League final should be regarded as a neutral venue, but in the end, there are still more Bayern Munich fans who buy tickets to enter the stadium than Manchester City fans.

In addition to the tickets reserved for fans on both sides of the final and tickets for sponsors at the beginning, a portion of the tickets are usually reserved for the final and sold online or offline to local fans in the final.

Since the final was held in the city where Bayern Munich is located, Bayern Munich fans bought a lot of these fans who should be for neutral fans.

So in the end, there were far more Bayern Munich fans than Manchester City fans.

They will be constantly cheering for Bayern Munich in the final, putting a lot of pressure on Manchester City.

This was felt from now on, and the cheers of the Bayern Munich fans were deafening.

And when it was the turn of the live broadcast to broadcast the Manchester City players, the boos of the Manchester City fans were drowned out by the boos of the Bayern Munich fans.

That's the numerical advantage.

Just because Bayern Munich fans don't hate glory doesn't mean they don't hate Manchester City either.

Bayern Munich fans have a grudge against Manchester City.

In the 2009-2010 season, Bayern Munich did not even qualify for the Champions League group stage, who caused it?

Manchester city.

Although it was glory to score for Manchester City.

But the Bayern Munich fans couldn't boo the glory, so they had to vent their frustration and anger on Manchester City.

In their view, Manchester City was able to take glory away from Bayern Munich purely because of their money. If they don't have glory, they can't even participate in the Champions League, how can they possibly eliminate Bayern Munich in the Champions League group stage?

Hoeness sold the glory to Manchester City, of course, there is a responsibility that must be borne, but at the same time, Manchester City also showed that they had a few stinky money, so they used the money to smash Hoeness and stole their heroic glory.

So when the names of Manchester City players are read, it is normal for Bayern Munich fans to boo.

It was only when the name of Glory was pronounced on the live radio that the boos died down. But there was no cheering either.

After all, they are still opponents in the Champions League final.

Bayern Munich fans, no matter how much they love glory, can't do it to the point of cheering for their enemies.

After the broadcast, the referee led his referee team up from the back of the line, and he motioned for players from both sides to follow.

I appeared!

The Champions League theme song was played, a scene that was no stranger to Manchester City's players, who had just experienced it once last year.

But now this Bayern Munich team is internal, and many people are still a little unfamiliar with it.

Even their core Arjen Robben is playing in the Champions League final for the first time. Robben rose to fame early on, and he was on the radar of the whole of Europe before his move to Chelsea. At Chelsea and Real Madrid, his watch made him one of the best stars on the planet. But this is the first time he has played in a Champions League final this year.

This surprised many people, just as they learned that Robben was only twenty-eight years old this year - many people would think that Robben was in his thirties just by looking at his appearance......

But in fact, people are just a little anxious.

Before this final, Robben did not make any comments about Glory in the media, in fact, Robben was very low-key this time.

It's different from the last time the two teams played each other, and Robben has learned wisely. Of course, there is a painful lesson behind this cleverness......

If he hadn't lost both of his last two fights to Glory, he probably wouldn't have been so honest.

Of course, from another side, it also shows that Robben is mature.

When the players of both sides played, the TV broadcasts gave close-ups one by one, and the most important players of both sides were given more close-ups than the other players.

The TV broadcaster is using this camera language to tell everyone that these players will be the key figures in determining the outcome of the game.

They're basically the best players in their respective teams and are the tactical core.

Before the game, it was assumed that the game would likely be Bayern Munich taking advantage of their home advantage, firmly controlling the football while also controlling the situation on the field, while Manchester City played the counter-attacking style they are good at.

But when the game actually started, everyone realized that they had all guessed wrong......

Bayern Munich doesn't mean to use home advantage to control football and then play attacking football.

Opposite...... They fought back defensively!

Yes, defensive counterattack.

In the first half, it was Manchester City who kicked off, so after they kicked off, they quickly recovered and shrank into a 30-metre area, waiting for Manchester City to attack.

Even Manchester City didn't expect that.

And Bayern Munich's contraction speed is very fast, Manchester City has not yet attacked, Bayern Munich has already completed the contraction defense, and then waited outside the inside.

"Uh......" John Mortenson saw the clue, and he was stunned.

"It seems that Van Gaal has really worked hard...... said Alain Hansen next to him.

Barcelona are currently the best team on the planet in attacking football and the most attacking firepower, but they have nothing to do against Manchester City, and their vaunted attack has no room to play, and in the two legs of the semi-finals, Barcelona scored just two goals on their home turf.

And it's not just this season, in the past three seasons, Barcelona haven't even picked up a draw against Manchester City.

What does this mean?

The most attacking team on the planet meets Manchester City, which is almost like a natural enemy nemesis, which shows that attacking football is useless for Manchester City. Manchester City, who are good at playing defensive counter-attacks, are the team that likes to play that kind of attacking football the most.

Since you can't play offensive football, the only option is to defend and counter-attack.

Jose Mourinho's Real Madrid, who met Manchester City in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, played on the counter-attack.

So those two games were a contest between two teams that were good at defending and counter-attacking.

Compared with the handy face against Barcelona, Manchester City played a little awkward against Real Madrid.

In the end, they still relied on the individual abilities of Glory and Kaka to win this opponent.

The score of both legs was 2:1, which is not a big difference, and it is completely different from the 3:0 victory over Barcelona.

So if there's any tactic that can cause City problems right now, it's probably the only tactic left to defend and counter-attack.

And this Bayern Munich team does have the capital to play defensive counterattacks, Ribery and Robben are both very fast, their individual abilities are also super strong, and their individual combat ability is outstanding.

With Gomez as the fulcrum of the attacking front, and Thomas Muller's nimble running and scoring ability, Bayern Munich does not need to invest too much in the attack to threaten Manchester City's goal.

To everyone's surprise, they didn't expect Van Gaal to really dare to use such ugly tactics in front of so many Bayern Munich fans at Bayern Munich's home stadium......

Isn't he afraid of being booed by his fans?

If Bayern Munich wins the Champions League in the end, that's fine, nothing is a problem. His move could go down in history as a classic tactical duel in the Champions League final.

But if he loses, this is Van Gaal's incriminating evidence, ironclad evidence that he is obstinate and stubborn. At that time, his arrangement will be scolded to death by the media fans, and his position in Bayern Munich may also be in jeopardy.

Van Gaal's choice was risky, but ...... Is there a way in the world to beat Manchester City without taking any risks?
