013 The goal of Bayern and Qin Lang, who are in the doldrums
Bayern got off to a good start in the Champions League, and it's really pleasant.
However, Bayern's Bundesliga season has not started the season very well, and the team is already three points behind Hoffenheim and Hamburg at the top of the table, which is a bit of a surprise.
On the other hand, Schalke 04, Wolfsburg and Stuttgart are even behind Bayern, which sounds good, but who knows what the Bundesliga standings will look like after three rounds!
More than the above, this may be the situation at the beginning of the new season for Bayern. It's just that Bayern also knows very well that the Champions League is off to a good start to the moment, but these people can't be careless.
Just like the game against Roma, although the vast majority of fans who stayed up late to watch the game in the first half of the game between Bayern Munich and Roma would be drowsy, the final 2-0 result was a true portrayal of the strength of both sides reflected in this game. It was a resounding victory for Bayern, as evidenced by the possession rate of nearly 70% of the game.
Bayern's pressing defense throughout the game made it difficult for Roma to find time to possess the ball and find an opportunity. Therefore, in the game, the ball is basically passed back and forth at the feet of Bayern, Bayern has always maintained the advantage of the field, and can change the rhythm of the game as they like, when the game is about to end, Roma can't withstand it after all, even if Roma withstands the test of most of the time.
Despite Bayern's win at home and Roma's poor form, Bayern's lead in strength is an indisputable fact. Bayern are strong, and there is nothing to dispute about that.
However, some problems were exposed, such as the impact of the absence of Arjen Robben and Ribery, which was still evident, and Bayern could maintain a huge advantage in the game, but it was not so easy to change the pace of the game when the Roberi combination was not available.
The most important point is the ability of the striker to score, whether it is Olic or Klose or Gomez, or Muller who can play as a striker; Bayern are short of a top scorer and Van Gaal has to take turns trying out different options to try his luck.
Bayern's efficiency is simply too average, which results in Bayern's ability to waste chances even more than their ability to create them.
Bayern need to strengthen their ability to take chances, and they should convert possession and dominance on the pitch into goals. Especially in the league, Bayern really need that.
Not long after the Champions League group stage, Bayern ushered in the fourth round of the league; Their opponents are Cologne, with Bayern continuing to play at home.
originally thought that Ribery was back, and in addition to the injured Robben, Van Gaal made his main debut; This should win the game, after all, Bayern have just broken the 'goal drought'.
But the result was a bitter smile, even if the game had just begun, and Bayern almost scored from a free-kick.
It's just that football doesn't need to be 'near' or 'almost' or anything like that, and if the ball doesn't hit the goal, then it doesn't count as anything. You have a say when you score, and you are nothing if you don't score.
In this game, the play of the two goalkeepers determines the trend of the game, and Qin Lang's performance is very steady; He saved his opponent's powerful shots, long-range shots, and he defused several counter-attacks.
But this time, the game is basically about the god-level play stage of Cologne goalkeeper Mondragon; Franck Franck Ribery's one-on-one attempt, team-mate's near-oolong assist, Kroos' header, Muller's follow-up shot...... Although Bayern has besieged again and again, Cologne goalkeeper Mondragon is really a man.
This game left many impressions on fans and the media, such as Bayern's horrific possession and the god-level performance of the Cologne goalkeeper, as well as the defending champion Bayern's three consecutive rounds without scoring a goal, and Bayern's embarrassing record of not winning at home to Cologne for nine consecutive years!
Bayern is now in a rather awkward position, no one knows what is wrong with Bayern now, no one knows how Bayern has not scored in three consecutive league games.
Indeed, it's really weird to look at Bayern right now, it's not what people think of Bayern at all.
The new season has played four rounds, plus one game in the Champions League, and not a single goal has been conceded. Originally, many fans and media thought that if Bayern wanted to go far in the Champions League, then they should strengthen their not too thick backline.
Bayern's backline, many people think that it is enough to dominate the Bundesliga, but it will definitely suffer in the knockout stage of the Champions League. But looking at it now, the backline, which is considered to be relatively inadequate, has not conceded a goal in five games in the new season, which has to be said to be a miracle.
Since the start of the new season, there are still teams that have not lost, but the only team that has not conceded a goal is Bayern.
Many people say that Van Gaal has made Bayern's backline more stable by taking the often-errant Demichelis, but some people think that Qin Lang's progress in the new season is surprising, and he is the most reliable link in Bayern's backline.
But this really doesn't work, Qin Lang's back line can indeed ensure that Bayern does not concede a goal, at most it does not lose the game; After all, the offensive side can't open up the situation, and Qin Lang doesn't have the slightest way.
It is actually unrealistic to expect the goalkeeper to take care of everything, Qin Lang wants to help the team on the offensive end, but there is nothing he can do, that is not his job, what he has to do is to help the team stabilize the position first.
It's really a bit wry, because Bayern only scored two goals in four rounds of league games in the new season; Look at Bayern's game again, there have been four rounds, and the average is only 0.5 goals per game.
Gomez, Olich, Muller, Klose, even if Robben didn't play a game in the new season, wouldn't this still have Ribery! Piggy, Lahm, and Kroos are also players with good offensive ability.
Sitting on a luxurious lineup, the attackers in the team are already full of talent and are about to overflow; However, there were no goals, and now Bayern has only scored a pitiful six points after four rounds of league games, and their team with a super high possession rate is actually the team with the fewest goals in the Bundesliga!
Possession of more than 50 per cent is average, close to 60 per cent is normal, close to 70 per cent possession, so it looks good.
But having so much possession and the number of shots on goal will also crush the opponent, but it just can't score; This has to be said to be a kind of irony, Van Gaal's beautiful attacking football, which makes people feel a little in vain.
"What do I do now, I am all in the limelight, and now it means that my performance is a little better. Signature player, I'm Bayern's barometer. ”
Qin Lang flipped through some reports, he really couldn't cry or laugh; Now there is no doubt that Bayern's record is questioned and ridiculed. But it is certain that no matter how critical the media and fans are about Qin Lang's performance, there is no way to blame them.
There are also some people who will criticize, that is, professional trolls, just to see that Qin Lang is not happy, then you can find a reason to spray, even if it is not a reason, you can spray everywhere. For example, the strength of the opponent in these games is very average, and the number of shots on goal is relatively small.
Looking at Qin Lang's performance, his teammates have so much possession, and Qin Lang has nothing to do throughout the game; So now what official matches have not conceded a goal in five games, this is not convincing at all, it is just pinching a few soft persimmons. Looking at Qin Lang's performance, the saves are all balls with no difficulty, and there is no level at all.
'I'm doing well at the moment and keep not conceding a goal. Now that we've had more than 300 minutes of clean sheets in the league this season, I'm going to see how long I can keep my streak of clean sheets. It's definitely better to keep expanding and never conceding a goal all the time! ”
Qin Lang, who was full of expectations, was thinking about his record of not conceding a goal, and he felt that although he was doing a good job now, it was obvious that he could do better.
It's just that he didn't concede a goal in four rounds, although Qin Lang is quite satisfied with this result; It's just that stimulated by such a performance, Qin Lang certainly wants to make persistent efforts. This is an obvious thing, because to never concede a goal, that is, to maintain an unbreakable record, to be able to maintain a perfect record all the time, that is perfect; If you don't concede a goal, it's perfect!
Qin Lang felt that he might be able to hit some records now, and he felt that he could do better now.
Former Germany international Hildebrand broke the Bundesliga's record for the longest clean sheet held by Lion Kahn in 2003/04 with a clean sheet of 884 minutes, a record that has not yet been broken.
Qin Lang felt that he could give it a try, his current record of not conceding a goal in the Bundesliga is actually very exaggerated; It's just that that's counting a few games from last season, but for Qin Lang, the span between the two seasons is really not interesting. If you really want to calculate it, you must need to complete such a record in a single season.
Now that the league has only played four rounds, the Bundesliga's non-scoring record is not half completed; Although this is just the beginning, Qin Lang does have some expectations.
Qin Lang wants to create a new record of consecutive non-conceding goals in the Bundesliga, which is a record that belongs to him; Maybe this process will not be simple and easy, but it is certain that Qin Lang will definitely like the process of making history, creating records and reaching heights that his predecessors have not reached, this is an extremely interesting thing.
For Qin Lang, one of the goals of the new season and the short-term goal has been confirmed, that is, to create a Bundesliga record of not conceding goals in the Bundesliga, this is the latest goal for Qin Lang, and this is the brilliant record that Qin Lang will leave in the new season.
