Chapter 185: First Goal!

The Bayern Munich players don't know much about Manchester City, and their knowledge is limited to manager Magath's explanations and reports in the German media.

In the eyes of most Bayern players, Manchester City and Bayern are not teams of the same grade.

Bayern's three lines are all famous stars, with Podolski and Pizarro in the front, Van Bommel and Santa Cruz in the midfield, and Lucio, Van Bitten, Lahm and other famous stars in the backfield, in contrast, Manchester City's front Anelka, midfielders Morris, Downing, plus Dunn in the backfield, are much worse, and except for a few players mentioned, the other players of Manchester City are young players, these young people may be big stars in the future, but that is the future, and now they have not really grown up.

However, the pessimism of the German media and the advice of head coach Magath have also made Bayern players pay more attention to Manchester City, and on the other hand, Manchester City is also the Premier League champion last season, and has also performed well this season, ranking first in the league with Manchester United, such a team is not easy to deal with.

What is the specific situation of the game, it still has to be said on the competition field.

In terms of the importance of Manchester City's individual players, Bayern's players in various positions are not unified in their personal ideas, such as Bayern Munich's backfield defenders, most of them think that Manchester City's most dangerous player is Nicola Anelka, because he is Manchester City's starting striker, and he is also a French star who became famous in 2000, and he even had the ability to compete with Henry for the Premier League top scorer last season, so Nicola Anelka is a player who must be paid attention to.

Secondly, it may be Downing's turn, Downing still has more appearances in the England team, at least more than Morris.

So, it was Morris' turn.

As for David Silva and others, they are all young players or players who are not well-known, so they are not worth paying attention to. In the face of their offense, as long as you defend normally.

The Bayern Munich players didn't know how dangerous this thinking was, and when they defended along the lines, the lesson was not long in coming.

It was in the 16th minute of the game, and after Manchester City had been in possession of the ball in midfield for a minute, they suddenly launched a fast attack!

After sixteen minutes of play. Bayern Munich also knows a little bit about Manchester City's style of play, which is very similar to the Spanish team, with a lot of passing and all kinds of brainless feet, in the face of this style of play, all they need to do is to defend toughly, and then look for opportunities to counterattack.

This time they did the same.

When Manchester City frequently ran and passed, Bayern Munich maintained the formation, and then tentatively grabbed the ball to create pressure on Manchester City's passing players, forcing Manchester City to make more passes. In this way, the Manchester City players are likely to panic when passing the ball, and if there is a mistake, it will be a chance for Bayern Munich.

This time, Manchester City used the cooperation of goalkeeper James to control the football very steadily, Bayern Munich could not find any chances, and when they were about to retreat some, Manchester City suddenly launched a fast attack. Centre-back Dunn handed the ball to Ivan Crewe, who played a direct mid-range pass. Kick to David Silva on the wing.

When David Silva got the ball, there were no Bayern Munich players around.

However, Bayern Munich is not in a hurry, one is that David Silva has just crossed the halfway line and there is not much threat in the position, and the other is that he is David Silva, a not much famous Spanish boy. It doesn't matter at all, maybe he's a young talent in the eyes of Spanish fans, Manchester City fans, but which Bayern Munich player wasn't a talent when he was young?

As a result, this negligence became fatal!

David Silva took the opportunity to adjust the ball and steadyly played a long ball down the right. There, Downing ran to the front to receive the ball, and then kicked it into a dangerous position in the middle.

Maurice!

Hargreaves has been defending Morris, if you want to say that among the Bayern Munich players, what they know about Morris is Hargreaves, because they are teammates in the England team, Hargreaves knows that this Manchester City player, who was not well-known before, is very good in terms of technique, especially his occasional threatening ball, which can always create a fatal opportunity for his teammates.

But he never knew that Morris's dribbling ability was so good!

When Morris received the pass, Hargreaves was on his right side, he wanted to stick to Morris and not give him a chance, but he didn't expect Morris to suddenly turn the ball to the left, his right foot on the ball lightly, the football was like a good baby, obediently flew into the air, just bounced off Hargreaves' right leg, and then Morris carried Hargreaves to the front, and then squeezed the back with his body to protect the football.

This series of actions stunned Hargreaves, and by the time he reacted, he had no chance to grab the ball at all, so he could only follow Morris and shout at his teammates in German, "Stop him, help!" ”

Lucio ran over.

He had just deliberately blocked between Morris and Anelka to prevent Morris from suddenly passing into the box, but seeing Hargreaves being passed, he could only step forward to make up for it, otherwise it would be too dangerous.

Morris is already dribbling to the penalty line!

Lucio judged for the first time that Morris was most likely to split the ball to the two wings, or find an opportunity to pass directly to Anelka in front, so he came up very slowly, mainly using his body to block the angle of wanting to pass forward, which showed Lucio's incomparable experience, he just wanted to force Morris to distribute the ball to the side, so that the danger of the goal was removed, regardless of whether the pass was accurate or not, Manchester City wanted to find an opportunity to do it again.

By the time Lucio was about to come up, Morris still didn't pass the ball.

Lucio was overjoyed in his heart, as long as he passed, he could wrap up Morris with Hargreaves one after the other, but at this moment, Morris suddenly rushed forward, his speed was actually not fast, but Lucio was coming towards him, and he was nervous to stop him head-on.

At this moment, Morris was short and seemed to be about to make a forward move.

The distance between Lucio and Morris was a little deeper, and he accelerated to stop Morris directly, but Morris did not continue to dribble the ball, and instead picked up his right foot.

That action is almost about to shoot!

Even the Sky Sports commentator shouted, "Maurice, shoot!" This obviously deceived Lucio, at the front end of the penalty area, although the threat of shooting is not big, but it is also quite dangerous, so seeing that Morris is ready to shoot directly, Lucio did not dare to slack off, and flew out directly, and at the same time blocked it with his legs, and he also planned to use his body to block the angle of the shot.

Not to mention Lucio, Morris's movements are so realistic that even the camera is shaken, and the TV screen is followed by a brush of his head, chasing the goal to the Bayern Munich goal, but there is nothing in front of the goal except Kahn, who is almost about to make a save.

And what about football??

The TV camera soon shifted to find out that the football was still at Morris's feet, he gently buckled the ball to the left, and then flicked the ball with the tip of his left foot, dribbled directly horizontally, and shook off Lucio who flew out!

"Hula"

The cries of the Allianz Arena followed up a notch, and Bayern fans were worried about their goals.

At this time, there is another player who comes and defends, and that is central defender Daniel van Bitten, who is a Belgian football star who transferred from Hamburg to Bayern Munich for 10.5 million euros in the summer, Magath expects him and Lucio to form a double central defensive combination to stabilize Bayern Munich's defense. When Morris broke through Lucio with the ball, Van Bitten was defending Anelka, seeing Lucio going to defend Morris, he thought there was no problem, Lucio is the backbone of Brazil's defense, and his ability is widely recognized, but what he didn't expect was that Lucio was actually deceived, so Van Bitten had to give up the defense of Anelka and rushed over to make up for Morris.

Morris raised his left foot slightly in the face of Van Bitten, and almost everyone thought Morris was going to pass.

There is only one Lahm on the left around Anelka, it is difficult for him to stop Anelka from taking the ball, Anelka also adjusted his position backwards to prevent being in an offside position, and Van Bitten is the same, at the moment when Morris raised his foot, he seemed to be pressed the switch, and directly made a move to raise his leg to block the ball, in order to block Moris's pass to Anelka.

It's a pity that it's still a feint!

Morris dipped the ball with his left foot, deceived Lucio, and took a step forward, and now he was completely facing the goal.

Lucio followed, he was about to stick to the right of Morris, Hargreaves also chased after him, trying to do something from behind, Morris was almost caught in the middle of the three, but he ran one position in front of him, already facing Bayern goalkeeper Kahn.

With the rhythm of the run, Morris swung his right foot again!

"It's a shot this time!"

Sky Sports' Champions League commentator Lyle Statham let out a loud "shoot-" at the same time, Kahn burst out of the goal, his arms raised to his sides like wings of a roc, roared, and pounced on his feet with both feet.

He was trying to block Morris's shot from the angle of the widest possible range.

Often, when Kahn does this, the opposing striker will be flustered, especially his trademark yelling, which can shock the opponent's heart, but this time when he jumped up and made a pounce, he immediately regretted it, because he saw the Manchester City midfielder in front of him, and did not choose to shoot directly, but gently pushed the ball to the side.

The ball rolls diagonally over.

The camera camera follows the direction of the ball and sees Anelka, who is already ready to shoot with his foot raised.

"Bang!"

After a muffled sound, the ball turns and flies straight towards the goal!

Karn wanted to intercept, but now he couldn't do anything but turn his head and send the ball into the net the moment he threw himself on the grass. (To be continued.) )
