Section 503 The Contest Mirrors

When the match between Tottenham and Bayern was over, for a long time, the British and German media discussed this excellent game.

Reus scored the opening goal, and then, Bayern's two-way style of play also showed good attacking power. However, before Bayern could show the power of their attack, Di Maria fired a long-range shot that made the Bayern players really scared. The game was full of twists and turns at the beginning, which can be said to be very good-looking, and even more so at the end.

Moreover, in this game, the managers of both sides showed a lot of good things. Li Bin arranged the rotation of two substitute players, which caught Bayern off guard, and Bayern's side, when it was dying and struggling, showed an extremely remarkable level.

Although in the second leg, Tottenham showed their counter-attacking ability. Di Maria's long-range shot from the wing nearly routed Bayern and sent Tottenham out of all their momentum. But Van Gaal was completely unmoved, and insisted on putting on a desperate posture. He knows very well that Bayern have no chance of winning if they continue to follow the rules, but if they go to the death, Tottenham may be able to play better in the next round.

And his persistence made Tottenham's side, Coentrão quickly received a yellow card, which also made him suspended in the next game, no matter who he played against. And he obviously did a lot - Bayern is dead, I don't care so much, Li Bin doesn't want to let more players eat cards for a game that must be won, that kind of thing can't be done at all, so he also let the team start to converge.

Van Gaal judged Li Bin's idea correctly, but he couldn't change the balance of strength between Tottenham and Bayern. In the second half of the game, they simply couldn't afford to attack much. The team dominated by the wing, in terms of overcoming strong opponents, itself has a natural disadvantage, Tottenham Hotspur in the second half of the appearance of a dead defense, Robben did not dare to break into the penalty area, which made Bayern simply unable to break through Tottenham's defense. Aside from a header from Orić who breached Manuel Neuer's goal, they didn't have much to accomplish at all. After the game reached its worst, it was a 1-1 draw, Li Bin won a place in the quarterfinals, and Bayern got a goal, although it was not helpful to the overall situation, but it also gave their players some psychological comfort: this kind of psychology of believing that their team is not weak is very important for their recovery.

"Bayern deserves respect in this game, they played with the style and strength of a big team." After the game, Li Bin also expressed his regret to Van Gaal, also because he did think that Bayern performed well: in the case of conceding the goal at the beginning, Bayern was able to maintain a strong psychological quality without collapsing, which is indeed worthy of respect.

It's just that the media also complained about his words: as a giant team, it was kicked and defeated at home, and the away game was conceded at the beginning, where is this situation worthy of respect?

However, such statements, after all, are in the minority. Li Bin behaved politely, and the media did not have too many accusations. And, after the game, more attention was paid to Tottenham's winning, but to the performance of Tottenham's players.

Because after the game, in the face of Li Bin's praise for Bayern's approach, Bayern also made a salute. After the game, Hoeness also expressed his appreciation for the Tottenham players, and some of them are quite interesting.

'I'm proud to have players like Reus and Boateng in Germany – of course, it would be nice if such players could come back to play in Germany. The Bundesliga is developing now, the Bundesliga needs good players, and we should be aware of the return of players. ”

Hoeness's words made many media ridicule: this guy also said before the game that Reuss, as a player of red and white Allen, is not worth comparing with Bayern's players at all, and after the game, he has already begun to say that he hopes Reus and Boateng will return to Germany - everyone knows that the salary of the German team is not high, and the reputation is not good, and this kind of thing poaching people from big teams is basically only Bayern can do, Hoeness's words, it is not so much that Germany needs them, but that Bayern needs them.

In one game, Hoeness swallowed his words back, which made the media quite excited, mocking Hoeness's lack of eyes. But at the same time, people are also thinking about another thing: how high is the level of these two players who can make Bayern's chairman so disregard for face and pull down his face to snatch the players?

At least, in this game alone, they are amazing. If it is not unusual for people to have predicted Bayern's defeat before the game between Bayern and Tottenham, then before the game, people expected that Li Bin put Boateng and Reus on the field in order to let them show their level, and this expectation is completely predictable.

Even the English media, who said before the game that they wanted to teach Loew how to use people, did not expect that the two most outstanding people in the game between Tottenham and Bayern were really these two Germans. Before the game, their words were somewhat joking about the German team, but after the game, they really began to discuss: Do these two people really have the strength of the national team?

At least, in one game, they didn't show any bad quality. Reuss's ability to play the ball in the front court completely overshadowed Bayern's Muller, and Boateng, who also has the body, speed, long pass, and positional sense as a right-back, also completely outperformed Bad Stuber. Since both Muller and Bard can be selected for the national team, why can't these two players?

The World Cup is not a trivial matter, and at this time, the performance of any player at the explosive level is enough to make people discuss it for a long time. Tottenham was able to play a very good game, which was naturally enough to make the media talk about it.

Naturally, Loew's attitude is the most important thing in this kind of discussion. As the head coach of the German national team, it would be impossible to say that he did not pay attention to this game. Moreover, Loew has always been good-tempered, and the media don't mind asking him how he feels at this time to see if he regrets being clumsy.

'I think I would consider calling up Jerome Boateng, he's very good. And Royce, all I can say is, he is still young and has a future. One or two games of play can't represent anything, Coach Li Bin's tactical arrangement is very good, it doesn't mean that their strength is very good. ”

In an interview, Loew also made his own statement. In his opinion, Li Bin's blatant request for the national team quota for the players is a bit excessive, and his attitude has made the media regretful, but in the regret, the English media was also the first to raise an important question, "The matter of the World Cup is still far away." But for now, the question we need to focus on is: how many good players are there in the Tottenham squad right now? If Reus and Boateng can both become marginal countries in the German team, doesn't that mean that the entire Tottenham team is full of international-level players? Is this kind of strength really possessed by a team that is not a giant? ”

After the problems of Reus and Boateng were over, it was discovered that almost everyone at Tottenham had national team experience, except for third goalkeeper David Burton, young youngsters Sturridge, Walker and Rose. Even O'Hara and Jagielka have been selected for the national team in previous seasons. Even if it is a giant team, it is difficult to make its first team of players all national-level strength, especially the first team of players, and they are basically football power internationals - at this time, the English media does not hesitate to count themselves as football powers.

"Terrible thickness, terrible lineup, terrible eyes. Coach Li Bin used his excellent vision to tell people what it means to be a top-level reinforcement. When he left Serie A two years ago to come to Tottenham, people thought he would not be able to create the same glory as Serie A, but in less than two years, he has done better than Parma in Serie A! Even if Parma was back then, there were Melo, Mota, Cannavaro Jr. and other players who were not at the international level, but now Tottenham, the lowest limit of the lineup, is a little higher than Parma. Such a team is simply immeasurable! ”

The voice of the media is no longer clear whether it is boasting or jealousy. Tottenham's ability to have that kind of quality would have been unimaginable to too many people. Especially looking at Tottenham's lineup, even those who do not have the opportunity to play in the national team, Sturridge, are very likely to be selected for the England national team in the future, such a squad thickness, where to find a second share!

In the past, people ignored Tottenham, but the tournament was like a mirror, allowing people to see how terrible Li Bin's vision was. Wenger is recognized as having a good vision, but he is also buying eliminated products from Ligue 1 and Serie A, but Li Bin has been shopping for treasures all these years, how did he do it?

And in the midst of all the boasting, Tottenham won the game against Bolton. In the game, Bale was rotated on the pitch from the start, and outside the box, after receiving a pass from Raul, he broke the door for Tottenham. Raul, who started as the main starter, set up Bale once in the opening game, and then assisted Sturridge once in the second half for substitute Cavani, and also relied on a chance to fall in the box to exchange for a penalty for Tottenham.

With Yaya Toure and Suarez not playing, Bale took the penalty. Since the second half of the season, his strength has been getting better and better, and in the league, there are already signs of becoming the team's thigh.

3-0 and Tottenham go on the next one. The only regret is that Chelsea and Manchester United have also won. The score difference between the three teams has not been widened, and it is still tightly entangled.

"However, compared to Tottenham, they will be able to open the gap with Chelsea immediately. Chelsea can basically only rely on their own team of main players to play now, Kalu, Mikel, Ferreira and others on the bench can not be regarded as very reliable, if Ancelotti uses them, he is looking for his own thoughts. And on Tottenham's side, even on the bench, there is a group of international players, and such a gap will make Tottenham stand out. ”

A while ago, when the media talked about the issue of winning the league championship, they were all more optimistic about Chelsea, but with the problem of friends' wives, the media was always embarrassed to scold them while saying that they were the favorites to win the championship. Therefore, in the eyes of the media, the biggest favorite to win the championship is Tottenham.

This kind of media propaganda does not help Tottenham Hotspur to improve its strength. However, it is of great significance to the blow of the opponent. In the history of football, there have been teams that have collapsed because of psychological problems – Ancelotti himself has even experienced it more than once – and the media has a lot of power to make players feel very uneasy, especially in the context of the World Cup.

Therefore, Li Bin is also happy to see the media now touting Tottenham, and he is happy to see that Tottenham has changed from a weak team to a strong team that everyone values.

However, Tottenham had some mistakes that could not help but boast, but they made it again at this time - in the midst of a lot of boasting, Tottenham's FA Cup game was played again.
