Chapter 427: See you in the final, brothers

The arrogant slogans shouted by Li Ang after the game made countless Meilingge feel refreshed!

Of course, Barcelona's fans were angry again, but when the anger and depression faded, they still couldn't raise the momentum to fight back against Leon in the field of public opinion.

There is no way, they really have no confidence in the face of Li Ang.

If the person who shouted the phrase "let Barcelona greet Real Madrid" was Ronaldo or Ramos, then Barcelona fans would have taunted and fired back at the first time.

Because the team they support has beaten Real Madrid led by Cristiano Ronaldo and Sergio Ramos on several occasions.

There is a history of big victories there, and you can turn it over at will, and you can find the words of counterattack and the mentality of superiority.

But against Leon, whether it was Real Madrid or Chelsea, Barcelona never won even once against his team!

Oh, maybe that's a bit unrigorous.

After all, when Li Ang was selected for the Real Madrid first team, Barcelona also slaughtered Real Madrid, although Li Ang was not selected for the 18-man squad at that time, he was an important member of the Real Madrid first team~

If you really want to pick out the words, then Li Ang can barely be regarded as losing to Barcelona, but the Barcelona fans are not so thick-skinned after all, and they didn't take it out to talk about it.

This time they were ridiculed by Li Ang blocking the spring water, and Barcelona fans held their breath and felt ashamed, but the experience of losing several important games in the past has also made them gradually get used to it...

With such a habit, it will be mentally prepared in advance, even if it is very reluctant.

But let's be honest, the vast majority of Barcelona fans have already expected this to happen.

And what happens after that?

Do you really have to follow the traditional rules of La Liga to greet Real Madrid, who won the championship early?

The smart Barcelona fans no longer jumped out in advance to discuss the so-called "countermeasures" this time, as if they completely ignored Real Madrid's early victory, and they didn't discuss this matter on the Internet at all.

There were other fans who provoked and mocked them as if they couldn't see it, completely throwing the responsibility for dealing with the matter on the club, or more accurately, to the team's current manager, Ernesto Valverde.

What's even more interesting is that the Barcelona players also remained silent at this time, as if they had made an appointment with their fans, and left the matter completely to Valverde.

So after shouting the slogan and waiting for Barcelona's response, Li Ang suddenly felt bored.

He has no grudges with Valverde, and he can't afford to force a good old man to carry such a big pot.

In fact, he would prefer to fight the big-mouthed Pico or Alves in the field of public opinion, but he really didn't expect that these two guys would also become foxes this time.

In this case, even if the whole Barcelona team greets Real Madrid at the Bernabeu, it will become a farce of their players and fans.

Bullying Valverde didn't bring much joy to Leon.

Seeing that the other Barcelona players were not hooked, Li Ang lost much interest in this matter.

After a simple in-team celebration with his teammates, he put his energy into the second leg of the upcoming Champions League quarter-finals.

In the first leg, Real Madrid's 2-0 victory over Bayern at the Allianz Arena in Munich actually reflects the current strength gap between the two teams.

After all, the Robery combination was affected by age, and the threat of playing at full strength was still there, but it could not maintain peak firepower output.

Javi Martinez's defensive ability has also declined rapidly due to several major injuries.

But now he is partnered with either Thiago, who is in charge of organization and scheduling, or Vidal, who likes to cut forward.

Both of them are not bad in terms of defensive ability, but neither of them can compare to his partner Schweinsteiger back then.

One of the big problems that plagued Bayern's midfield was the shrinking area of defensive coverage.

If Vidal had dropped back and focused on covering the tackles, the defensive pressure on Javi Martinez's shoulders would have been much easier.

But in this way, Thiago has to play more positions with Leon and Modric in the premise position.

At that time, Bayern's entire midfield's ability to organize and distribute the ball is bound to be seriously affected.

This is also a problem that Bayern's midfield has not been able to solve since Schweinsteiger's departure.

In other words, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find a midfielder like Piggy who can keep the whole team running and contribute important defensive protection.

Even though Kovac has a lot of grooves in his chest and doesn't have the right players, he can't solve the current shortcomings of Bayern's midfield.

Before the game, some German media came up with the idea of using Xavi Martinez as a single midfielder, and then Thiago and Vidal as double central midfielders, so as to protect the flanks of the midfield.

But in the end, these German media had to admit that Bayern really adjusted the lineup for the second leg as they suggested.

That should be more likely to be broken through the entire midfield defence by Real Madrid......

Thiago is likely to be limited by Luka Modric, and Leon can easily break through Martinez, who is getting slower and slower to turn, one-on-one.

Do you expect a Vidal to step forward and retreat to make up for it?

Come on, Vidal is just the top B2B player in active football, and Yaya Toure, who was still at his peak a few years ago, is much more fierce than him, but Yaya Toure can't balance offensive and defensive investment well.

Perhaps the only one who can solve this fatal problem in football today is Leon.

Not only is it all-round in offense and defense, but it also has superhuman physical strength.

Kovac didn't have the ability to evolve Vidal into Leon in a short period of time, and he couldn't balance the attacking and defensive problems of his own midfield.

So he ended up taking a gamble and putting the best of the team on the other path!

Offense, offense, or TMD, offense!

On the evening of April 18, after a short period of emergency adjustments, Bayern finally revealed their final starting lineup in the life-and-death battle to the fans.

Lewandowski, who returned from injury, started without any surprises.

It was still Robery's wings that provided him with the passing aid.

Muller lay behind him and tandem up front.

And behind Muller, the double-back combination that supports the operation of the entire Bayern tactical system has become Thiago + Vidal!

Yes, in order to maximize the team's offensive ability, Kovac really fought hard and directly put Javi Martinez, who may slow down the pace of attack, on the bench!

As a result, such a starting lineup has emerged that has surprised and excited Bayern supporters, but at the same time made them feel extremely worried.

On the Real Madrid side, as soon as Ancelotti received the starting lineup list for Bayern's game today, he directly gave up the No. 1 tactical plan to start at the Bernabeu home stadium in the locker room.

There is really no need to fight Bayern in this round, if Real Madrid attack, it will be as Bayern wants.

In the face of Bayern, which has a clear tactical card, the tactical choice that Ancelotti has to make now is actually quite simple.

Shrink formations, control the field, kill game time and... Fight a quick counterattack!

Playing this tactic at home is somewhat conservative, but it is also the safest option.

Li Ang had no problem with this, as soon as the game started that day, he settled into the midfield position, and after receiving the ball, he and his teammates brushed up the team's possession statistics.

Of course, Bayern was unwilling to let Real Madrid kill the game time like this, and directly sacrificed the tactical play of high pressing.

The Champions League has reached this point, and there is really no need to save physical energy.

And Bayern are now eight points ahead of second-placed Leipzig in the Bundesliga, with little pressure to play.

Kovac is planning to fight hard in this game, and Bayern's players are also mentally prepared.

As soon as such a ferocious offensive was pressed, countless fans in front of the TV were excited.

But for the whole Real Madrid team, the defensive pressure is a little bigger, but the scene is not out of control, and they will not be confused by Bayern's attack.

This is also the biggest advantage of Real Madrid's successive Champions League semi-finals in recent seasons, and it has always had the biggest advantage of competing with other strong teams.

The experience has never stopped, and in the face of such a big scene, it is as ordinary as breathing and drinking water, and the technical foundation is extremely solid.

The players on the Real Madrid field, who are as stable as old dogs, are dancing on the tip of the knife, and use one accurate pass after another to cut Bayern's attack into layers of slicing!

While maintaining the dominant possession, Real Madrid's midfielders did not forget to send a long counter-attacking pass to see if they could steal another goal.

Such an old style of play will not make the whole Bayern team shake their belief in attacking to the end, but it also really puts more pressure on Bayern's backfield defense.

The front side is lively, but the back is frightened, the offensive effect that Bayern wants is indeed played, but Ronaldo and Li Ang, who is attacking and attacking, also sounded the alarm for Bayern's back line with two shots!

However, Bayern can't take care of so much at this time, and the momentum of the offensive end is getting more and more kicked.

Playing in the twenty-ninth minute of the first half, Robben really got Bayern a chance to pull back a goal with an experienced "touch porcelain" in the penalty area!

The referee on duty ignored Marcelo, who innocently raised his hand to appeal for himself, and resolutely awarded Bayern a penalty.

Lewandowski, who was in charge, also achieved it overnight and did not give Navas a chance to save.

However, in the live broadcast replay later, more neutral fans clearly saw that Marcelo's outstretched foot in the penalty area did not touch Robben at all!

Robben's fake fall acting skills are so realistic, it really deceived the referee and countless fans!

However, Real Madrid, who suffered an unfair punishment, quickly calmed down under the leadership of several big players in the team.

still sticks to the previous tactical style of play, controls as much as possible, continues to wear down the physical fitness of Bayern's midfielders, and seizes opportunities to counterattack by the way.

Even if Bayern's morale was boosted and a more ferocious offensive was launched, the whole Real Madrid team was unmoved.

In the end, under the pressure of Bayern's attack of ten shots on goal in the half, Real Madrid still withstood the pressure and entered the break with an aggregate score of 2-1 over two legs.

Originally, the vast majority of fans who watched this game thought that Real Madrid would definitely start the game in the second half and be caught off guard by Bayern.

As a result, after the second half of the game really started, Real Madrid still maintained the control of the game in a hurry, and it seemed that they were really not worried about capsizing at home.

Bayern's players on the field were overjoyed, thinking that Real Madrid's coaching staff was admitting it at this time, and wanted to keep a one-goal lead until the end of the game.

Inspired by this self-attack, they fought harder, and the offense became more and more relentless.

The offensive effect is still outstanding, but their physical wear and tear is also quite amazing!

Maybe the players on the field of Bayern are not aware of themselves, and before they know it, their running pace is slowly slowing down.

The instincts of the body will gradually overwhelm the mental will, telling them that they need to take a break, at least to take a break, and to rebuild their physical energy.

And when they didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, Real Madrid reminded them with a sudden tactical adjustment that it was time for the game situation to change hands!

In the 67th minute of the second half, Real Madrid suddenly exerted its strength, and a wave of counter-robbery directly disrupted Bayern's offensive rhythm, and then launched a rapid counterattack that almost trampled Bayern into hell!

That is, Neuer, who used a god save at the most critical moment to block Bale's close-range shot!

However, before the whole Bayern team could rejoice for too long, Real Madrid's counter-attacking offensive made a comeback.

Kovac's worst fears were also on the pitch at this time.

Thiago, who was targeted by Leon, began to lose possession frequently, and as soon as Real Madrid grabbed the ball, they would launch a very threatening and rapid counterattack in a very short period of time!

Manuel Neuer was able to save one of Real Madrid's two threatening shots, but in the face of Real Madrid's continuous attack, he was unable to catch it after all.

In the seventy-fifth minute of the second half, Real Madrid played two consecutive strikes in the chaotic Bayern penalty area, Benzema and Leon completed the shot successively, and finally Leon scored the football into Bayern's goal!

Neuer slapped the turf in front of the goal, but at the moment the other Bayern players had no time to frustrate.

Gotta score two more goals!

With two more goals, they can knock out Real Madrid on away goals!

It's hard, but it's not impossible.

Bayern's attacking players, clinging to the last glimmer of hope, waited anxiously in the frontcourt.

But at this moment, the Bayern midfielders who were forced by Real Madrid's reverse impact and had to control the ball first could not give them too much offensive possession.

Unable to get the ball, Bayern's attacking players had no choice but to retreat to respond.

However, they also underestimated the determination of Real Madrid's whole team to fight back at the moment.

After a strangulation and scramble, Leon once again broke the ball from Thiago's feet.

Modric took the ball first, and then split the ball to the right, Bale leaked the ball, and Carvajal, who was inserted forward, led the ball to the edge and went straight to the bottom!

Alaba was also in a hurry, and at the last moment he chose to shovel towards Carvajal from the side behind!

However, Carvajal had already finished his observation before he could make the tackle and delivered the final pass!

Benzema and Ronaldo slapped the goal in the middle of the Bayern penalty area, and Boateng jumped together, but when he saw the football fall to the back of the penalty area, his heart suddenly sank!

Rahm immediately judged the position of the football landing, but before he could jump, a huge figure directly occupied his entire line of sight, and then met the ball with an exaggerated jump height to complete the head-to-head attack!

Rahm was bounced off and Neuer gritted his teeth in Bayern's last line of defence to make a final save!

But the ball eventually avoided his palm with a faster spin and plunged headlong into the goal behind him!!

"The ball is inβ€”β€”!!!!!"

Commentators from all over the world roared passionately at this moment!

And Li Ang, who finally scored a brace, also slapped the team emblem on his chest and completed a long and cool kneeling celebration in the bottom line area of Bayern's half!

The game has been killed early!

Real Madrid, except for Keylor Navas, the players also gathered in the corner flag area to celebrate wildly.

Li Ang has once again become the focus of attention on the live camera.

And after he finished the group celebration, he got a haircut, and then made a "phone contact" gesture to the camera.

And the Chelsea players who are watching this game at the moment also understand that Leon is asking them to meet in the Champions League final!
