Chapter 793: The Third Ball

"Thirty-five minutes into the game, Bayern Munich was already 0:2 down, but after conceding two goals, Bayern Munich consciously strengthened their defense and pressing, and it seemed that they were gradually getting into the rhythm."

Sky TV commentators analysed the situation of the game.

Ferguson smiled, "But it's a little slow, if they started the game with this kind of pressing and pressing against Tottenham Hotspur after the opening, maybe the game would have to be played, but now, they are too passive, and we have all noticed that Tottenham Hotspur began to consciously attack the side of Alaba." ”

'It's a normal tactic and you've got a yellow card at the full-back, so I'm going to focus on that.

Bayern Munich's pressing also consciously focused on their own left side, that is, the right side of Tottenham Hotspur, after all, Ribery and Kele? Walker is active on this side, so Bayern Munich is also defending heavily on this side.

Once Kyle? Walker won the ball on the right, Bayern Munich had two players pressing at the same time, but Kyle? Walker knocked the ball across the gap to Pirlo, who then crossed to Ramsey, Ramsey knocked back, Pirlo ran forward, received Ramsey's knockback, and after receiving Ramsey's knockback, he made a big pass with his right foot directly over the top.

Ribery rushed forward quickly, and Alaba was left behind by him, forming an anti-offside position.

"Eh, the referee didn't blow for offside, a great chance for Tottenham Hotspur!" The commentator also became excited, and all the fans in the stadium almost held their breath, and many people involuntarily stood up from their seats.

"Ribery was very fast, rushed to the penalty area, faced Neuer, a feint, passed, passed!!!"

"Single Knife !!!!" The narrator shouted almost hoarsely.

I saw Ribery wade past Neuer with a feint, quickly catch up with the ball, push with his right foot, and the ball was sent into the goal line with a diagonal line, 3:0!

"The ball is in!!!!! Tottenham Hotspur's third goal!!!! ”

"It happened in the 39th minute of the first half, Tottenham Hotspur scored the third goal of the game, from Frank? Ribery's brace!! ”

French Scarface rushed out of the stadium with a strange roar all the way excitedly, opened all his teammates along the way, rushed to the front of the home team's coach's seat in one breath, opened his arms, opened his mouth and roared, hugging Ye Qiu tightly on the sidelines, and even the momentum threw Ye Qiu's whole person on the turf of the court.

He's so excited, he definitely has reason to be excited, because he feels like he has endless power in this fight, he feels like he has endless strength, he feels like he's so excited, this fight has made him burst out of form and fighting spirit like never before.

In the past few years, the qiē he has endured, the qiē he has suppressed, and now this game has completely exploded!

Tottenham Hotspur players rushed up one by one, pulled Ribery and Ye Qiu up, and surrounded them in the middle, 3:0, this is almost a goal that sentenced Bayern Munich to death, this is simply a rhythm of Tottenham Hotspur to slaughter Bayern Munich, and the Bundesliga squad is powerless to resist!

Contrary to the excited celebration of Ye Qiu and others, Heynckes slapped his forehead hard, his face was full of frustration, and he returned to the away team's coach's seat and sat down, looking extremely lonely, because he knew better than anyone that Bayern Munich had no hope of reversing this game, unless there was another miracle at the Luzhniki Stadium!

But the creator of the miracle at the Luzhniki Stadium is Tottenham Hotspur, would they be stupid enough to create the same miracle for their opponents?

"Heynckes' frustration seems to indirectly confirm the strength of Tottenham Hotspur!" The narrator said with a sigh.

"Tottenham Hotspur are definitely the strongest team in football today, not only because they have a very good group of top superstars, but also because they have a very strong overall fighting ability, and more importantly, they have a very good team philosophy and are always looking for balance and variety, which is very rare. ”

"You know, when a lot of managers take over the team, the biggest problem, which is that their biggest enemy is not the opponent on the pitch, but the pressure of results, and they are worried about getting out of class, so the first thing they do when they come on stage is make sure they don't get out of class."

Ferguson also has a lot of experience in this area, even if he claims to have focused on developing young players as soon as he took charge of Manchester United, but in fact, Erik? The statements of Harrison and others confirm that the most important thing for Ferguson at that time was to gain a foothold at Manchester United, and the class of 92 was promoted precisely after he established himself.

"Ye Qiu has no pressure on grades, so he doesn't worry that he will get out of class, so he builds the team according to his own ideas and concepts, how reasonable, how effective, how to do better, how to come, which makes Tottenham Hotspur's progress and growth very fast."

"Perhaps the biggest test for Tottenham Hotspur now is after Ye Qiu leaves, Mauro? The question of Tasottti's succession, but judging from the current situation and the feedback information, there are not many problems, and as long as the succession is successful, with the current strength of this Tottenham Hotspur team, we will continue to see their invincible figure in Europe in the next few years. ”

When the live TV screen repeated the process of scoring just now, the director also switched to the situation in the stands by the way, and saw British Prime Minister Cameron and London Mayor Boris? As soon as Johnson and the others saw Ribery score, they immediately rushed out of the seat excitedly, raised their arms high, and shouted with the fans, looking extremely excited.

On the contrary, German Chancellor Angela Merkel looked gloomy, she looked very embarrassed in her position, but the Chinese Premier sat next to Merkel with a subtle smile, and the two whispered something from time to time, looking very generous.

More than half an hour has passed since the game has been played so far, and everyone who watched the whole game will feel that Tottenham Hotspur has almost won this game in advance, not only because of the three-goal lead, but also because in the past half hour or so, Bayern Munich has almost been beaten by Tottenham Hotspur without temper.

This is a devastating offensive battle, Tottenham Hotspur in the first half completely played their own advantages and characteristics to the fullest, especially in the attack and pressing, the combination is very perfect and effective, so that Bayern Munich simply can not find a strong opportunity to resist, and then throughout the first half, Bayern Munich blocked the number of shots on goal to three, no shots on target.

'As I said before the game, Tottenham Hotspur is not only strong in the starting line-up, but also because they have a lot of tactical changes and a lot of personnel, so Vidal can play on the left wing, Marcelo can play as a winger, Ribery can play on the right, Messi plays as a midfielder, these are not a problem, and even they can play other types of players such as Drogba when necessary.

"But Bayern Munich is relatively simple, their substitutes seem to be well-staffed, but in fact, they don't change much, especially their entire midfield, Schweinsteiger, Toney? Neither Klos nor Gustavo can move, Robben and Thomas? Muller is also unable to move, and there is no substitute for the entire backline. ”

"In this case, Bayern Munich at first glance seems to have plenty of bench depth, but in fact, apart from the two center forwards, Gomez and Mandzukic, they don't have much room for change, and even their style change and characteristics are relatively simple."

"So in this case, Heynckes doesn't want to adjust, but can't find an effective way to adjust, unless he fights Tottenham Hotspur now, but it's too early to fight, it may backfire, and in turn Tottenham Hotspur will play a round of wild attacks to create a shameful big score, which is also what Heynckes needs to consider."

Ferguson also felt helpless about Bayern Munich's passive situation, because the changes in their lineup, as well as the function of the players, compared to Tottenham Hotspur, are indeed relatively simple, which is quite a disadvantage.

Even if there is no first half, even if they really keep Tottenham Hotspur's attack, they may not be able to defend to the end, because Ye Qiu still has a lot of changes to keep behind, such as choosing to go to Drogba according to Bayern Munich's situation and further strengthen the battle, or simply take Cavani and change to a winger to further play the advantage of personal ability in the frontcourt.

These are all valid options for Tottenham Hotspur, but Bayern Munich obviously don't have many options in these areas.

…………

…………

In fact, Ferguson's judgment was not wrong, and there is really not much variability in this game for Bayern Munich.

At half-time, Heynckes made a controversial substitution, replacing the midfielder Toni with defensive midfielder Timoshchuk. Cross.

The former is a veteran of Bayern Munich, with excellent defensive ability and can even play at central back, but he does not support much attack, while Toney? Kloss has always been seen as the most suitable midfield partner for Schweinsteiger, as the duo's presence will ensure Bayern Munich's midfield possession and delivery.

But now Tymoshchuk has replaced Tony? Klos, this substitution caused dissatisfaction among Bayern Munich fans in the stands, because they felt that it was a weak substitution, and the team should consider counter-attacking rather than conservative tactics when they were three goals down.

"What about Heynckes, in fact, this substitution is indeed a bit controversial, because the midfielder replaced Toney? It is difficult for the team to carry out an effective attack, which is indeed a bit of a weak and conservative suspicion for Bayern Munich, which is three goals behind, but the problem has to return to the game, the first half was too dangerous. ”

Ferguson has some views and understandings of this.

"Sometimes the fans watch the game and think, why is the manager so adjusted? Why such a substitution? ”

"In fact, the fans themselves don't understand, the manager has his own considerations many times, just like this time, I think Heynckes' substitution may cause controversy, but he has his own reasons, he is worried that the team will concede another goal in the second half, and even eventually turn into a humiliating slaughter of big scores, which is not what he wants to see and accept."

"Relatively speaking, you are already behind, now Tottenham Hotspur wants you to press out, if you really press out to play, then you will fall into the trap of Tottenham Hotspur, so Heynckes adopts another strategy, I don't press out anyway, you continue to attack, I defend, hold and then fight you to counterattack, stealing a goal is a goal, maybe there is a chance."

But as the second half of the game progressed, everyone noticed that Tottenham Hotspur changed the bombardment of the first half, pulled down the rhythm of the game, changed the team's style to possession tactics, and the tactical formation changed back to the familiar 433 tactics.

"That's where Tottenham Hotspur is tough, you can press up, you can attack, you can retract, you can defend, you can play a slow pace of possession with a gentle drizzle, you can play a stormy fast-paced attack, you can't find a more effective way to fight against a team like this."

If the first half was a fast-paced battle of attack and defense, then the second half was a very dull play of possession.

Tottenham Hotspur has a three-goal advantage and is clearly consciously slowing down the tempo, and it is best to drag the game straight to the end and win the Champions League early.

In this case, Tottenham Hotspur's ability to control the ball is reflected, Bayern Munich still wanted to rush up and press at first, but Tottenham Hotspur's quick kick of the ball can quickly transfer the ball, and take advantage of the gap created by the pass and catch to hit the hole behind Bayern Munich, which makes Bayern Munich feel very painful.

If you want to turn the tide or even score a goal, you have to press up, but the problem is that once you press up, you leave space behind you, and once the attack is frustrated up front, Tottenham Hotspur's counter-attack is very threatening.

But if you don't press it, the whole situation becomes very tight, and Tottenham Hotspur will want to drag the game down.

Heynckes was behind and had to make another change, replacing Mandzukic with Gomez and Gustavo with Pizarro in the 70th minute, hoping to step up the attack and launch a fierce attack on Tottenham Hotspur in the final 20 minutes.

But Ye Qiu also made two consecutive substitutions five minutes later, one was to replace the winger Ribery, who was very good in this game, with Hazzard, and at the same time replaced the veteran Andrea Pirlo with Pogba, so that Ramsey, Pogba and Vidal formed a midfield three.

These two substitutions are mainly aimed at the team's physical fitness, Ribery played very eye-catching in the first half, while Pirlo is not young, both players have physical problems, so Ye Qiu replaced them with the more impactful Hazzard, and the midfielder has a stronger ability to hold the ball and is more physically energetic Pogba.

After two substitutions, Ye Qiu saw that Bayern Munich's offensive was still not contained, so he made another substitution adjustment, replacing Cavani with Nesta, and the team adjusted again to form three central defenders to restrain Bayern Munich's double forwards.

With Nesta's play, Tottenham Hotspur's tactics have also changed to 352 tactics, with Kompany, Nesta and Thiago? Silva formed a three-man central defence, Marcelo, Aaron Ramsey, Paul Pogba, Vidal and Kehl? Walker formed the midfield, with two of the wide players playing deep.

The two players in front are Messi and Hazzard, which are specially used to counterattack, it depends on whether you Bayern Munich dare to press up and play, as long as you dare to take the lead, I dare to hit behind you.

Tottenham Hotspur's adjustment effectively froze the defensive hardness in the 30-meter area of their side, Bayern Munich did not have a very effective way to fight in the position, and the middle lacked penetration ability and could only rely on the wings.

But in the 84th minute, Tottenham Hotspur backfielder Thiago? Silva made a long diagonal pass, Hazzard quickly countered offside, and formed a single knife after winning the ball, and when the last pass to Messi, if it wasn't for Neuer's quick reaction to save the ball, Tottenham Hotspur would have scored the fourth goal.

With this sharp counterattack, Bayern Munich also completely dispelled the idea of pressing on the attack.

It's not that Heynckes doesn't want to, but because he knows very well that it is not easy to break through Tottenham Hotspur's defense now, on the contrary, if he is not careful, it is very likely that Tottenham Hotspur will score in turn and further expand the score.

"Ye Qiu has obviously prepared more fully for this game, and we can all clearly see that he has been very confident and calm in response to every change and adjustment of Bayern Munich during the game, and it is obvious that he has made a plan in advance, which is very rare."

"Personally, I think it's still thanks to Mauro? Tasottti, he is the style of a typical Italian manager, the details are very fine, the tactical ideas are very clear, and he knows everything about Tottenham Hotspur, so he knows better than anyone how Tottenham Hotspur should play! ”

"So I personally think that even if Ye Qiu really retires, Tottenham Hotspur will continue to remain strong, because Mauro? Tasotti can take over Ye Qiu's class very well, perhaps from the perspective of personal coaching ability, there is still a gap between him and Ye Qiu, but the problem is that he inherited a Tottenham Hotspur whose strength has far surpassed any team in professional football at the moment. ”

During the dull period of the game, Ferguson also expressed his feelings about Tottenham Hotspur's strength, because he knew very well that Ye Qiu chose Mauro? Tasotti was a natural succession, and unlike his own choice of Moyes, he looked more like a choice he had to make out of desperation.

"As Cruyff said a year ago, the current Tottenham Hotspur team only has time to beat them, and we can only hope for Pirlo to age, this player is too important to Tottenham Hotspur, he belongs to the heart of the organization and so on, once he gets old, Tottenham Hotspur's midfield is bound to face a round of turmoil."

"Perhaps, this is the opportunity that other teams are about to have!"
