Chapter 252: This Premier League Champion, There's Something
After Rossi's goal, it was Carlo Ancelotti who was most excited.
He clasped his hands tightly and swung them down forcefully, the huge pressure on his body was relieved.
It was he who tried his best to bring in Rossi, and he wanted Rossi to play more than anyone else.
But the stubborn problems of the team forced him to make compromises.
The first is the Robery combination that created Bayern's brilliant treble.
Ribery is 33 years old and Robben is 32 years old.
In Pep Guardiola's final year in charge, the two were no longer in their prime.
At the beginning of Ancelotti's coaching, when he received the medical examination reports of the two from the team doctor, the idea of finding a successor for the two came to his heart.
Kingsley Koeman, a youngster on loan from Juventus last season, is a good seedling.
But until he has made a formal move to Bayern, Ancelotti will never let him take Robery's place.
Thomas Muller, an outstanding product of Bayern's youth system, has been a testament to all.
Muller's movement and one-shot ball are world-class, and he can threaten by cutting into the box from the ribs under the cover of Levan and Robery.
But with the frequent injuries of Robery and the others, making it much easier for opponents to defend, there is enough energy to help Muller move forward.
He also slowly cruised down the flanks and used crosses to help his team-mates score.
The shortcomings of speed made him lose his advantage in defensive counterattacks.
So, Ancelotti thought of Rossi, who was killing all sides in the Premier League.
He has a flowing style of play, world-class forward movement and, most importantly, a better start than Muller.
Therefore, Ancelotti's original tactical concept was to play a 4-4-2 system, taking one of the three from Robery or Muller and vacating the spot for Rossi.
But in these positions, they are not easy to mess with.
Once the relationship is not handled well, it is very easy to cause conflicts in the locker room.
Therefore, after Ancelotti introduced Rossi, he did not arrange for him to start.
Instead, he was pressed on the bench, so that the fans' dissatisfaction continued to accumulate, and then he made a "helpless" substitution.
Rossi, too, repaid Ancelotti's trust with a goal that broke the deadlock.
Now, he has taken the first steps towards reform, but it is far from over.
Next, he also has to complete the replacement of the old and the new in the midfield and the back.
The scolding from the home fans did not stop, and the manager Tuchel crouched down on the pitch and pondered calmly.
After Ribery's departure, Bayern did lose the speed of counter-attacking on the wings.
However, their midfielders can use the passing organization to pass forward with strong penetration.
Laiwan's pull on the side made the team have to focus on defense, which gave Rossi the opportunity to form a 1v1 in the middle.
The deft runner of the Premier League's Golden Boot is the nemesis of Germany's tall centre-back.
"Luo, make up beautifully!"
Captain Lahm patted his face with his hand and encouraged: "Kick like this and you'll get the championship trophy after playing your first official match." ”
The other players also gathered around and congratulated him.
Dort, who was behind, immediately launched an attack after kick-off.
After Bayern took the lead, Carlo Ancelotti allowed the defence to shrink to avoid exposing too much space to the opposition.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is in hot form and can't give him a chance.
Bayern's counterattack was launched from two full-backs.
Faced with Dortmund's high pressing, Bayern's midfield team struggled to play the ball as calmly as they did in the first half.
At this time, goalkeeper Noyer began to play the role of the ball.
He found Lahm on the wing at the back, who then passed the ball behind the Dortmund defence.
Dortmund, who had been using long balls to hit the gaps behind the opposition, were attacked in the same way by the opponent.
I was at a loss for a while.
In the 62nd minute, Lahm's pass broke through Dort's backline.
It's a pity that Laiwan, who was inserted forward, was interfered by the opposing defender and couldn't easily get the ball.
Bayern were not in a hurry after taking the lead, and their switch between attack and defense was very simple, which was Alonso's position.
When the team is attacking, Alonso will appear in the central midfield position, responsible for the organisation, and Bilda will protect him on the side.
When defending, Alonso will step up to the backline and act as a central defender to strengthen the team's lateral coverage.
Regardless of how Dortmund transfers, Bayern's defence has remained compact.
Although the forward line is not fast enough, with the forward combination of Rossi and Laiwan, the team can switch to positional battles.
Gradually, fans discovered that Ancelotti's style of play had some similarities with Heynckes' Bayern.
The midfielder led his feet back and forth, controlled the ball, and then coldly stuffed the ball to Rossi and Laiwan, who ran out of the vacant position, and let them complete the fatal blow.
Dortmund's attack, on the other hand, did not have many options and did not pose a threat with crosses.
In the 65th minute, the managers of both sides had to make substitutions.
On Bayern's side, Kimmich is sorting out his socks.
Dort's assistant coach is holding the tactics board and explaining the next tactics to Schurrle and Weigel.
The substitutes were waiting for the game to be interrupted, but Bayern's Vidal was accidentally stepped on by Adrian Ramos in a steal and fell to the ground in pain.
The referee stepped forward to check the injury and motioned for the team doctor to enter the field.
The sudden change made Ancelotti temporarily cancel the substitution.
He's going to find out if Bilda can continue playing.
The gesture from the team doctor told him that Vidal would not be able to keep the game going.
In desperation, Bayern had to replace Vidal with Kimmich.
Borussia Dortmund replaced Dembelai and Sergio Ramos.
Schurrle's appearance strengthens the team's forward threat, and he also has a long-range shot.
Just a minute later, Dortmund's cooperation in the front, Schurrle received a pass from a teammate, and the ball was directly rubbed without stopping, and was safely picked off by goalkeeper Noyer's hands.
After that, the two teams struggled in midfield and struggled to push into each other's boxes.
The passage of time made the Dortmund team impatient.
They have beaten Bayern twice in the Super Cup for three consecutive years to win the title, and are the only team that can monopolize Bayern to win the domestic title.
Under this huge psychological record advantage, the current one-goal deficit makes the Dort team very impatient.
And after Rossi scored a goal, he didn't have a bright performance.
It also has to do with Bayern's tactics.
Away from goal, his threat is greatly reduced.
In the 78th minute, Dortmund replaced Aubameyang with Moore, who was respectfully called "Little Messi" by Dortmund fans.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was very active in this game, constantly attacking Bayern's defence.
It's just that teammates don't help much, and it's difficult to form an effective attack.
The physical exertion made it difficult for him to support his final match.
Moore's arrival meant that Dort would start a frantic attack in the last ten minutes.
Alaba threw the ball in his hand, and Alonso, who was on the wing, chested the ball and shifted to the right.
Lahm was unguarded in the weak-side area and played a long ball straight into the space in front of him.
Rossi cut in quickly diagonally from the middle, on the right side of the penalty area, and crossed directly without stopping before the defender interfered.
Is it him again?
When did his speed become so fast?
Before Lahm's pass, Rossi was in the middle.
He kept running sideways to avoid offside.
When Lahm passed, he quickly got out of the defence and cut forward quickly.
A classic anti-offside forward cut that tore Dort's defence to shreds.
Muller, who was outflanked in front, grabbed in front of the defender, passed the ball head-on, and cushioned the ball towards the goal with the arch of his foot.
The Bayern fans behind the goal erupted into an earth-shattering roar at the moment of Muller's goal.
This goal basically announced that they would win the German Super Cup again after three years.
After Muller scored, he rushed to Rossi and picked him up.
"Luo, it's too timely!"
If Rossi chooses to stop the ball and pass it again, the defender who is chasing back will most likely block the pass.
But then again, you can run at high speed and cross the ball without stopping.
And the landing point is very uniform.
This solid fundamentals and ball sense are unmatched.
This Premier League MVP is not easy.
You are a genius, remember in a second: Red Sweet Spring:
