After the goal, the Bayern players did not celebrate like crazy as before, but clashed with the Manchester City players.

The reason is that at the moment of Lewandowski's shot, Gundogan, who fell to the ground and slid the tackle, brought his left shoe spike to his calf, and fell to the ground in an incongruous position.

Lewandowski, who was not prepared for the impact, sat on the turf and struggled to get up after a tearing pain in his ankle.

An angry Vidal, believing that his opponent was deliberately hurtful, directly pushed Gundogan away.

The two also broke out into a quarrel because of this.

The referee hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and after asking about Lewandowski's injury, he signaled for the team doctor to enter.

After a brief treatment and injury assessment by the team doctor, it was said that Lewandowski could not continue to play.

In the home equalizer, Lewandowski, one of the thighs of the striker, was injured unexpectedly, and it will be a test for the following games.

Lewandowski's role in the team is no less than that of Rossi.

And in the winter window, Wagner, another center forward of the team, transferred to the Chinese Super League to pan for gold due to his lack of playing opportunities, and there was no decent center forward available in the team.

This is a big blow to Bayern, which has just improved.

After much thought, Heynckes decided to send in the veteran Ribery.

Rossi was naturally pushed to the center position.

Bayern's formation changed to 4-5-1.

Lewandowski's injury and departure not only weakened Bayern's threat in the frontcourt, but also made the team lack a front-court fulcrum to break the pressure.

For the remainder of the first half, Heynckes didn't think of a way to break the game for the time being, and re-moved his previous tactics.

Although Muller is a midfielder, once the attack is advanced, Rossi quickly pulls to the side, runs off the ball and pulls the defence, giving up the position in the middle to Muller.

Ribery and Retona, two full-backs, were on the perimeter looking for opportunities.

But this tactic requires the midfielders to have very high passing and running skills.

And those in the team who have the ability to support the front line are all sitting honestly off the field.

James and Thiago.

Heynckes sighed.

He couldn't have used up two substitutions in the first half.

Now one can only hope that the players off the pitch grit their teeth and persevere, dragging the draw into the half-time break.

Rossi, who has been transformed into a shadow striker, has to pay more off-ball runs to mobilize and pull the opposition defense without a strong center forward to cover up.

Fortunately, he used a very beautiful "heavy shoulder" before him to let the opponent see his ability on the wing.

In just ten minutes, Rossi finally understood that shadow strikers were a very difficult job.

When attacking without the ball, you should run without the ball and be ready to protect the ball when the striker is tackled or successfully blocked.

When attacking with the ball, you have to be able to break through with the ball and create scoring opportunities.

What's even more tiring is that you have to seek a second point of attack through the flank run, grab the second landing point, and insert in the back row.

He even regretted a little why he chose such a laborious ability training as "Shadow Striker".

Isn't it fragrant to take a walk in style?

Thankfully, the team had a thrilling chance to drag the draw into the half-time break, and both sides quickly returned to the dressing room to make adjustments.

Bayern's current situation is much more dire.

For more than a decade, no matter how the players in the team are sent, the team must ensure that there is a positive center.

Toney, Klose, Gomez, Olich, Mandzukic, Lewandowski, these pure shooters, are essential for Bayern.

Now, Lewandowski is injured and there are only two second-strikers on the front line.

Rossi and Thomas Mill.

In terms of tactical play, it is very limited.

Heynckes had to be redeployed.

When he returned to the locker room, he immediately brought the tactical board and began to write and draw with a serious expression.

The players saw the serious expression of the old handsome, all like kindergarten children, all sitting upright.

In the locker room, it was so quiet that only the sound of pens ticking on the tactical board could be heard.

"Alright, now you just need to put your ears and put in your head exactly what I say."

"Whoever makes a mistake will be replaced immediately."

"Whoever it is!"

The intermission was very short, and the staff came to remind both sides to get ready for entry.

With the manager's half-time instructions, the players from both sides started the second half of the game.

Manchester City kick off.

After Sergio Aguero passed the ball back, Bayern immediately pressed towards the opponent's half and took the initiative.

In the frontcourt, Bayern sent a group of up to five people, and at one point pressed Manchester City's pass to the goalkeeper's feet.

Feeling bad, Guardiola bounced up from his chair and rushed to the sidelines.

He found that Bayern's formation had changed.

It turned into a very oppressive 2-3-5 formation.

In this formation, the back and forth movement of the two full-backs makes Bayern's attack and defense tend to be balanced.

The front court guarantees a five-man pressing group, which can well target the passing combination of Manchester City's back four.

Once Manchester City returned from midfield, Bayern also pulled out personnel from midfield accordingly to press forward.

The advantage of this is to ensure that there are enough people to oppress.

But the downside is also very obvious, once the full-backs can't come back, the back line becomes very vulnerable.

That's why Bayern's formation tends to be balanced, not really balanced.

Once the 70 minutes have passed, the balance can be upset at any time as the player's fitness drops.

After the opening, Bayern took advantage of this formation and seized the initiative in the game.

Rossi continued to play as a central striker and was responsible for the top battle.

That's right, Rossi is now being used as a pure centre-forward.

But Heynckes' use of him is different from Lewandowski's.

Rossi doesn't need to be like a pure centre-forward and keep the ball at his feet.

What he has to do is use his keen sense of smell, fight for the first point, and try to play the ball in the direction of his teammates.

The rest of the looting ball is completely handed over to your teammates.

If he can grab it, Rossi immediately steps forward and receives the pass.

If a teammate doesn't get it, they'll immediately counter-grab and get the ball back.

That's why Heynckes has so many people up front.

In the 48th minute, Neuer took the ball to the front in the penalty area.

Rossi was interfered with by the defenders, and although he fought for the ball, the ball came between his teammates and opponents.

Retona and De Bruyne went to grab at the same time, but it was the leg-long De Bruyne who poked the ball away first.

Bayern immediately launched a counter-attack, and Retona quickly chased back and snatched the ball back from behind with the help of his teammates.

The cheers of the fans at the scene were boiling again.

Rossi, who was already in an offside position, strode back to receive the ball, and after turning, the four defenders of Manchester City were already in position.

Rossi quickly distributed the ball to the unmarked Ribery on the right and slotted into the box from the middle.

Ribery looked up and saw three team-mates in the City box.

At this time, Rossi's left foot had just stepped into the penalty area.

5v4。

This is the first time since the beginning that Bayern has formed a situation of playing more and playing less.

Rossi and Ribery looked at each other, immediately understood, and came to a cross-run.

Ribery's sudden inward cut drew the full-backs into the defensive position.

Rossi suddenly plunged diagonally into the gap.

Bang!

A very hidden through ball, like a scalpel, passed between the two defenders.

Rossi received the ball with the inside of his right foot, took advantage of the situation to complete the turn, and faced the goal.

Although the action of stopping the ball and turning is very chic, the angle of the shot is very small.

The goalkeeper also stood on the goal line in time, lowered the center of gravity, and expanded the defensive area.

Rossi looked at the corner above the far post, picked the ball up with his toes, and drew an arc above the goalkeeper's head, falling towards the top corner of the far goal.

The home fans invariably opened their mouths, clenched their fists, and stood up from their seats.

Then, after the net rolled up the waves, the mountains roared and the tsunami-like cheers poured into the central court from all directions.

Yes!!!!!!!!!!
