132 Charge! For the pinnacle of the era of free men [10,000 words, kneel and beg for subscription]
Adriano was a filial child.
When he comes to an away game, he wakes up in the morning, eats with the team, and when he returns to his room to rest, he calls his parents in Madrid as soon as possible.
He would care about his father's medication on time, tell his parents not to eat those leftovers from the night, and let them work more carefully......
When he re-signed an agreement with Atletico and received a higher salary, the first thing he did was to get his parents to quit their jobs.
He's not missing his parents' salary.
As Adriano's roommate, that was the first time Deco had seen him arguing with his parents on the phone.
Later, the matter went to the head coach, and Adriano's parents also had their own considerations, they were worried about their children's careers, they wanted to continue working, try to buy a house in Madrid or Brazil, and think about the future......
In the end, it was the head coach who stepped in to settle the matter.
Everyone in the team knows that whenever Adriano makes a mistake, only the manager can handle him.
The morning of the UEFA Super Cup.
When Deco finished eating and returned to his room, he saw that Adriano was already on the phone.
Actually, Deco is quite envious of Adriano, and the relationship between father and son is really good.
"I know, don't worry, I've been doing well lately, and our boss often praises me."
"You know, you know, don't tell me this, pay attention to your own body, don't always let me worry about it......"
Deco couldn't help but laugh out loud on the sidelines.
In the eyes of the whole world, Adriano is a burly, domineering high school striker, who would have thought that he would have such a face in private?
Adriano heard Deco's laughter, immediately covered the microphone of his mobile phone, raised his head, and looked at Deco "viciously", as if to say, you eavesdrop on my phone again, believe it or not, I'm going to die?
Deco hurriedly waved his hand and ran to the bathroom.
"Nobody, nobody, I'm alone in the room, they're all eating...... I've eaten it, so don't worry about it......"
While Adriano was babbling on the phone with his parents, there was a knock on the door to his room.
"I'll come back later." Adriano clutched the microphone of his phone and shouted at the door.
"It's okay, the hotel cleaners, who come to clean it, oops, it's okay, they'll come back later, please, sometimes you're really too verbose...... No, it's not that I dislike you......"
There was another knock on the door.
Adriano looked out impatiently and found that it was still knocking, and he was a little angry.
They all said that you would come later.
"Wait a minute, don't hang up, I'll go talk to the hotel cleaner."
With that, Adriano walked over and opened the door.
As a result, he found head coach Yang Hao standing at the door.
"Boss, why are you?"
Yang Hao snorted, "Sneaky, what are you and Deco doing in there?" ”
"Nope."
Adriano raised his mobile phone and said with a wry smile: "My dad and my mom have to pester me on the phone, it's been more than twenty minutes." ”
Yang Hao believes that he is a ghost.
According to Adriano's parents, they are very distressed about the phone bill, where are they willing to fight for so long?
"Hey, Dad, Mom, don't talk about it, our boss is here, he has something to do with me, hang up."
After quickly hanging up the phone, Yang Hao was welcomed into the room.
When the door was closed, Adriano also tapped the bathroom door specifically, "Deco, the boss is here." ”
Deco inside didn't know what he was doing, so he rushed out quickly anyway, and he didn't hear the sound of flushing.
"Boss."
After Yang Hao entered the room, he looked around and shook his head.
It's a bit messy.
"This hotel cleaner is really good, and he doesn't come to clean up so late." Deco was a little weak-hearted.
Adriano was happy.
He knew that Yang Hao would not care about these details.
"Sit, I'll talk to you."
Yang Hao sat down on a chair in the room, while Adriano and Deco sat at the end of their bed.
"Have you read all the materials for Bayern?" Yang Hao asked with concern.
Both nodded in agreement.
This one is definitely something to see.
Before each game, the coaching staff prepares a copy of the materials for them.
For example, as a striker, Adriano got the material about Bayern's defensive layout, which will be introduced in great detail, listing the various situations of Bayern's defensive line, as well as the attack areas and routes that Adriano can choose.
Judging from the situation this season, Bayern basically plays a back four, but it is not excluded to play a back three.
It's said to be a back three, but it's actually a back five last season.
The two full-backs, Lizarazu and Sagnol, will be positioned a little further forward, falling back when defending, but pressing forward when attacking, acting as a flank in central midfield and widening the team's attack.
This is actually very similar to Carlo Ancelotti's Christmas tree formation at AC Milan.
The most extreme situation of Bayern Munich was against Real Madrid in the semi-finals of the Champions League last season, with five defenders and three midfielders, which were extremely conservative.
In the end, relying on Elber's counterattack, Real Madrid was dragged to death.
Otherwise, there is no way, in the face of the attacking lineup composed of Zidane, Figo, Morientes and Raul, who is sure to fight against Real Madrid?
As attackers in central midfield, Deco and Adriano are naturally more concerned with the backline.
"Deco, you have to pay attention in the game, if Bayern is playing a back three, their two full-backs will definitely press forward, and when you and Baraja organize the attack in the midfield, you must use diagonal passes as much as possible to tear their wings, and I will ask the two wingers to pay attention to the forward."
Yang Hao made a single-knife straight action.
With the speed of Atletico Madrid's wingers, whether it is Vicente, Joaquín or Reyes, or even Villa and Torres, they can make good use of Bayern's wide holes.
But the premise is that this kind of oblique transfer must be fast, stable and accurate!
Deco was smart and he immediately captured the manager's intentions.
"Ade, after Deco withdraws, the opponent's back line and back midfield, this area, basically vacant for you, you have to play more actively, the range of movement can be larger, keep running gaps, create opportunities, so that teammates can pass the ball to you."
Adriano nodded incessantly.
Yang Hao had repeatedly mentioned these to him many times during the previous training camp.
I know how to play, but how to cooperate well, how to play in the game, which requires on-the-spot play.
'If the midfielder moves to the wing, no matter where you are, move forward as soon as possible.
"Understood."
In the 4231 formation, the key to the entire offensive tactic is the forward midfielder in the tenth position.
But after switching to 433, the key to offensive tactics is instead on the forwards.
To put it simply, if your player's individual ability is not strong enough, but there is a good midfielder, then it must be the right time to play 4231, and it will be more consistent.
But if your players are very individual, then play 433, because this tactic can maximize the ability and strengths of the players.
"If Bayern are playing in a back four, then you have to be a little more bold and give me the two central defenders who are against them, whether it's Kufuor, Robert Kovacs or Thomas Link, they can't stop you!"
In this regard, Yang Hao is very confident.
Adriano is also confident in himself and in the manager's judgment.
……
Because before the meeting, Yang Hao had already talked to the players one by one about the specific tactical details, so in the morning tactical meeting, Yang Hao emphasized the most about targeted defense.
Needless to say, Elber's ability is also emphasized by Yang Hao.
Carsten Yankel.
A lot of people like to talk about tactical centre-forwards, and then they think Drogba should be the first of this type.
But it's not.
In the history of European football, what type of player has been constantly emerging, constantly iterating and improving.
Carsten Jankel is also a very typical tactical centre-forward.
With a height of 1.93 meters, he is very tall and strong, and his strength is also extremely strong, and the destructive power of the impact is very amazing.
He doesn't have great technique, he doesn't have great speed, and he doesn't have great goalscoring efficiency, but his ability to pull and play the ball in the box is a headache for any defender who touches him.
Bayern Munich has two sets of attacking play, one is Elber and the other is Jankel.
Jankel receives long balls in the box and helps his team attack, which is one of Bayern Munich's best weapons.
Of course, Heathfield wasn't so easy to figure out his routine.
Yankel is a very obvious point, but he just doesn't use it.
He will push Yankel up, draw your defensive attention, force you to focus more on Yankel, and then use other players to attack and even assist Yankel in the build-up.
This kind of back-and-forth routine is a change taken for different teams and different defensive strategies.
As a world-class coach, Heathfield has long used this perfectly.
But no matter how Bayern uses it and how it changes, for Atletico Madrid, Yankel must be taken seriously.
"In front of you, I have never concealed my truest thoughts."
"It's the same this time."
'My goal is to win, and the goal for the new season is La Liga and the Champions League.
'But we need a game to see if we have the quality and the qualifications.
"As last season's Champions League winners, there is no doubt that Bayern Munich is the ideal opponent."
After Yang Hao introduced the tactics, he began to mobilize before the game.
In the evening, in the dressing room, there will be another one, so that everyone can be in the best spirits, at the stadium of Louis II.
"You're probably going to see some reports as well, and a lot of people are talking more about losing and winning, whether we win the quadruple or Bayern kill us as a dark horse and defend the authority of their European giants."
"But I want to say, none of that matters."
"The important thing is that we need to go through a game to see more clearly what we are capable of, to see how far we can grow and improve, to see if we are qualified to continue to charge against La Liga, against the Champions League!"
When Yang Hao spoke, all the players in the conference room had very grim and solemn faces, but their eyes were full of longing.
That look is like a lonely traveler in the vast desert, who has not drunk water for three days and three nights, hungry for water and thirsty for an oasis.
'I said it, I have a lot of confidence in you, I always felt that we have the ability and the opportunity to be the best team in European football, and last season's La Liga and the UEFA Cup were the best proof of that!'
"But that's not enough, and I'm sure you won't be satisfied with that."
"So, forget about the wins and losses of the game, forget about the inconsequential titles, forget everything, this game for us has only one purpose, and that is to use Bayern's test to see what kind of quality we have."
"If we can beat Bayern, we will definitely be able to charge for the Champions League and La Liga!"
……
Monaco is just a small country, and the Louis II stadium is not big.
With less than 14,000 fans in attendance, the stadium was almost filled.
Every year on the stage of the UEFA Super Cup, there is no shortage of bright stars, and celebrities from all walks of life are even more common, and tonight is the same.
UEFA president Johansson arrived with a whole leadership team, and it was all routine.
Those who have just participated in the Champions League group stage draw also came to the stadium to watch the match, which is also a regular event every year, as the draw and the Super Cup are in Monaco.
There were also politicians from France and Monaco, as well as legends of European and world football.
This makes the UEFA Super Cup more of a feast.
Johansson, accompanied by French legend Michel Platini, German football emperor Beckenbauer, and Spanish Football Federation president Angel Bilal, walked into the administrative area of the rostrum stand.
As the leader of UEFA, Johansson is like the emperor of European football, and he is warmly welcomed everywhere he goes.
A short pre-match show takes place in the stadium, which is also a regular event every year.
But Yang Hao still heard the movement in the chairman's stand behind him, turned his head, and saw the scene of the UEFA president entering, and he was also very emotional.
Who would have thought that during the UEFA presidential election in '07, Platini and Johansson, who fought bloodied, are now as good as wearing the same pants?
Few of these people in the chairman's stand are simple, even Beckenbauer.
It's really not that Yang Hao has any prejudice, but that they want to mix in this circle, which is not simple in itself.
Platini began to mix in UEFA and FIFA when preparing for the World Cup in France in '98, when he was the chairman of the World Cup organizing committee, and after the World Cup, he quickly entered FIFA and served as a follower to President Blatter.
In Yang Hao's previous life, Platini was a famous godfather, so what should Blatter, the godfather of the godfather, be called?
FIFA's headquarters are in Switzerland, and so is UEFA's headquarters, so Platini is now running at two ends.
He is not an exception, as is Beckenbauer, the president of the Spanish Football Federation, Bilal, who also serves at both FIFA and UEFA, and is the vice-president of the UEFA referees committee and a member of the FIFA referees committee.
But there is one thing that Yang Hao has always thought is very strange, it stands to reason that Bilal is in such a critical position, how could he let the stick hack Spain in the 02 World Cup?
What's even more outrageous, do you know?
The chairman of the UEFA referee committee is Italian, and he also serves as vice president of the FIFA refereeing committee, and as a result, both countries have been hacked with sticks.
Who to talk to?
Therefore, after Bilal was eliminated from the competition in Spain, he resigned from the refereeing committee in anger.
The twists and turns in this, if it are made public one day, it can really be written as a book in the competition area at the starting point.
But now, no one knows what will happen next year.
Therefore, they are all still guarding the side of Johansson, the emperor of European football.
……
All thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, Yang Hao turned his head, and his attention returned to the court.
At this moment, the players of both teams have already entered the field.
Bayern played in a back three.
This should be Heathfield's game strategy.
But Samuel Kufuor was not in the back three, but Guinean player Pablo Thiam.
The 27-year-old Guinea international, who arrived on a free transfer from Stuttgart in the summer, has always played in midfield, but is 1.86m tall and has a good matchup, so Heathfield put him in defence.
Once the players of both teams have set up their positions, Bayern's back three will be more obvious.
It's the 343 formation.
Goalkeepers: Kahn;
Defenders: Robert Kovac, Thiam and Thomas Link;
Midfielders: Lizarazu, Hargreaves, Sforza and Sagnol;
Forwards: Salihamidzic, Elber and Pizarro.
On Bayern's bench, there are also players such as Yankel and Santa Cruz.
Yang Hao did a lot of preparation before the game, and as soon as he saw this lineup, he roughly guessed Heathfield's intentions.
"I'll just tell you, he's still going to stick to a back three, right?"
Yang Hao walked back to the coach's seat and smiled at Lillo.
Lieho really didn't know how to react, "This old man is too stubborn. ”
Stubborn?
Maybe.
Didn't Bayern start the season with 4 games, 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss?
The first round of the league was a 1-0 defeat away to Borussia Mönchengladbach, when Thiam did not play.
But in the next three games, Bayern beat Schalke 04 3-0, drew 1-1 away to Bayer Leverkusen, and beat St. Pauli 2-0 at home.
And in all three games, Thiam started and played every minute.
Many people may be wondering, is it a return to last season's back five?
Younger.
Heathfield went straight back to the days of the free man.
Thiam is a defensive midfielder who plays in central defence and plays the role of a libero between Kovac and Link, often rushing forward with the ball in play.
Of course, the Guinea international is not bad, he has amazing strength and great speed, he is a midfielder and his skills are also very good, so once he gets the ball and rushes, many teams can't stop him.
Bayern had already agreed with him in October last year and eventually signed him on a free transfer this summer.
Everyone originally thought that Thiam was coming to replace the old Effenberg, but they didn't expect Heathfield to play a big game directly.
"Let me tell you, Juanma, once a person is old, it is easy to indulge in the glory of the past and find it difficult to extricate himself."
Yang Hao said with a smile.
Heathfield has always been fond of the German-style free man tactics, and when he was in charge of Borussia Dortmund to win the Champions League, there was a Summerer behind him, and then when he was in charge of Bayern, there was a Mateus in the team.
Last season, Bayern's success was actually due to the back three.
Patrick Anderson may have been a joke at Barcelona, but he was instrumental in Bayern's Champions League triumph last season, and without him, Bayern would not have won the Champions League at all.
The Barcelona management is really bad, but at least the buyers don't buy blindly.
So, Heathfield has always had a strong back three complex.
Now he wants to train Thiam, and he is so good that Bayern has performed well in the first three rounds of the league.
Continuing into this UEFA Super Cup, Heathfield continued the free man tactics of a back three, what is the problem?
At this point, don't blame Heathfield for being stubborn.
How many people in German football are still immersed in the era of free men?
How many coaches are trying to recreate the glory and glory of the free man era?
Standing in 2023, of course, I think this is a group of ridiculous old stubborns, but in 2001, when Bayern just won the Champions League with a back three, what's wrong with that?
Many people even say that if it weren't for Matthaus' sudden transfer to the Major League Soccer in March 2000, Bayern would have lost to Real Madrid in the semi-finals?
No kidding.
Do you know that in the second round of the group stage, Bayern and Real Madrid were divided into a group, what is the score?
4-1 at home and 4-2 away, Bayern beat Real Madrid twice, and Real Madrid had almost no power to parry.
In those two games, Mateus played as a libero!
Even, in the 99/00 Champions League, until Matthaus's departure, Bayern played 10 games in the Champions League, Mateus played 9 games, Bayern's record is 5 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss, and the remaining one is also a draw.
Interestingly, the opponent in the first round of the group stage was Valencia, another team in the final, and Bayern drew 1-1 with Valencia in both legs.
So, how many people are regretting letting Mateus go away from the American Major League.
And now, Heathfield is sticking to a back three, which is really justified.
Even many people think that Thiam is very similar to Mateus.
Yang Hao asked himself, if it were him, it was estimated that he would also think about how to find the three guards and find the peak of the free man era.
……
"In the afternoon, I went to the hotel to ask for a cup of coffee from Otmar, and he told me that he was starting to feel it."
In the chairman's stand not far behind Yang Hao, Beckenbauer pointed to the two teams in the stadium and said confidently.
He said that he and the team have a very good feeling in the last three games, and he feels that Bayern has a good chance in the new season, and may even defend the title.
As soon as Beckenbauer's words came out, everyone around him, including Bilal, the president of the Spanish Football Federation, laughed.
Instead of laughing, they felt that Beckenbauer's statement was fresh.
But Bayern are indeed one of the strongest teams in Europe.
"Times are different, a lot of tactics have to change, but the essence of football will not change." Beckenbauer asserted.
"Actually, I think Thiam is a bit tall." Platini took over.
Several of Germany's best liberos are not tall, with Beckenbauer and Sammer both around 1.8m, and Mateus even shorter.
The reason is actually quite simple, just like Patrick Anderson last season, when he is tall, he is slow, and his feet are not flexible.
A free man is to go up and down quickly, and there must be work under his feet.
"It's a few centimeters taller, but he's really fast, especially when he rushes up with the ball, it's very feeling." Beckenbauer replied to Platini's words.
Then he laughed again, "Africans can rest assured in terms of speed and flexibility." ”
Everyone around them burst out laughing again.
"If that's what you say, I'm a little worried about Atletico tonight." Johansson laughed too.
For them, it doesn't matter who wins or loses.
It's a show.
"Atletico are still competitive." In the end, Bilal should still defend his own team.
Beckenbauer nodded, "It's really good, that little ghost's 4231 tactics last season played a little interesting, but there is nothing too new, this is also a problem in La Liga now, all play 4231, the characteristics and styles are similar, this is not good-looking." ”
"That's right, the league still has to be varied to be exciting." Platini agreed.
When Atletico opened the line-up, Deco and Adriano kicked off in the center circle, and Vicente and Joaquin stood on the two flanks, so it still looked the same as last season, 4231.
"However, it's not easy, I won the League Cup at the age of 26, and I slowly accumulated experience, and maybe I can survive it in the future, but if you want to talk about genius, it's over." Beckenbauer is a genius himself, so he does not recognize Yang Hao's coaching talent.
At least, in Yang Hao's Atletico team, there are not many amazing tactical concepts.
Even if there is, it is a micro-innovation in the tactical environment of La Liga, a series of 4231, not a genius.
"Franz, what do you think the score will be?" Johansson was suddenly interested.
Beckenbauer thought for a moment, "Two fingers, 2 to 0, we win." After saying that, he showed a very confident smile, obviously full of confidence in the Bayern players and Heathfield.
"Michelle, what about you?"
Platini smiled, looked at Beckenbauer, and then at Bilal, "2 to 1, Bayern won by a small margin." ”
Johansson turned his gaze to Bilal, "Angel. ”
'I'm bullish on a draw in 90 minutes, Atletico's defence is still very solid.
"Impossible, you know, why did we spend 7.5 million euros to sign Pizarro from Werder Bremen?"
'Robert Kovac is here to strengthen the defence, Nico Kovac is to strengthen the midfield, Pizarro scored 19 goals in the Bundesliga last season, he is here to strengthen the attack, he is very similar to Elber, he has a lot of individual ability, and he is more comprehensive, and the combination of the two is quite good.
Speaking of this, Beckenbauer shook his head and said: "Atletico can't hold it tonight." ”
Platini nodded on the side and agreed: "Indeed, from the current point of view, Atletico Madrid's defense will be difficult, once it is almost consumed, in the second half, there is still a Yankel." ”
Bayern this season can be described as strong, ambitious, and full of tactical means.
From the moment the team was formed, Bayern Munich had only one goal.
Bundesliga and Champions League defending!
In Bayern's eyes, only Real Madrid is their opponent.
Atletico?
Far from it.
Bilal is also not optimistic about Atletico Madrid competing with Bayern, and he will not say anything more.
It was at this time that the referee from Portugal, Vito Pereira, blew the whistle for the start of the match.
……
When Atletico kicked off first, Bayern's midfield was quick to get forward.
A trio of players, led by Elber, Pizarro and Salihamidzic, pressed towards Atletico's backline at the same time.
Atletico were forced to play a long ball up front, but Thiam stepped forward and headed it back.
Bayern immediately went on the offensive.
Sforza sent a long pass straight to the right side of Atletico's penalty area.
Elber was quick to get behind the Atletico defence, but Van der Sar came out and picked up the ball on the right edge of the box.
Van der Sar played a long ball and tried to go to the front to find Adriano, but the Brazilian centre-forward was fouled by the referee when he was fighting with Linke.
Bayern took a quick free-kick from Hargreaves on the left and Kovac headed forward for Lizarazu.
The French left wing-back is another long pass, still going to Pizarro and Elber.
Lucio was in good position and headed the ball over to Cambiaso.
The Argentine chested the ball and split it to the left.
"Hey, Fabio."
Yang Hao shouted loudly at his left wing-back from the sidelines.
In the first half, Bayern attacked from left to right, and Atletico Madrid attacked from right to left, so Aurelio was near Yang Hao.
"The pace is too fast, control it appropriately, don't worry, be steady." Yang Hao walked to the sidelines and shouted.
"Understood." Aurelio replied.
But the Bayern defender immediately pressed on, and Aurelio took it back and passed it to Carvalho.
Bayern pressed again.
Carvalho passed Cambiasso again, and the Argentine kicked back again, directly to goalkeeper Van der Sar.
Bayern only then slowed down the pace of pressing slightly.
Atletico began to control the ball at the back.
Yang Hao signaled that the team's formation should retreat a little and stay compact.
In the opening minute or so, Atletico Madrid was stretched too wide by Bayern's onslaught.
Once a player is too far away, the success rate of the pass drops and there are fewer points to answer.
Atletico Madrid continued to go back and forth at the back, while Bayern's front three players took turns to scramble.
In the second minute, the ball was back at Van der Sar's feet, and the Dutch goalkeeper raised his right hand high, still signaling his team to hold steady and control the tempo.
Atletico Madrid's advantage lies in passing and technology, and it doesn't make sense to blindly fight with Bayern at a fast pace.
But just when everyone thought that Atletico Madrid would continue to fall at the back, Bayern's midfield began to press forward, especially Elber and Pizarro, who were ready to encircle Van der Sar, the Dutchman suddenly made a long pass.
Van der Sar's long balls have always been very accurate.
This time was no exception.
The ball flew over most of the pitch and landed directly into Bayern's 30-metre area.
Bayern's entire defence was coming back quickly, while Adriano was cutting forward at high speed.
In the end, it was Adriano who barely managed to get to the first spot, heading the ball to the right wing.
Joaquín cut in at high speed, and after stopping the ball, without waiting for Kovac to get closer, he crossed diagonally with his right foot into the big penalty area to find Adriano.
But by this time Link was in place, and he took the lead to head the ball out.
On the edge of the box, Hargreaves headed it out again.
The ball was picked up by Baraja, who was inserted in the back row, and passed to Deco.
Bayern's entire defensive formation began to press forward.
But at this time, Deco suddenly distributed the ball to Aurelio, and the Brazilian made a long pass and hoisted the ball behind the Bayern defence again.
"Adriano quickly stepped forward, single-handedly !!!"
"My God......"
"The linesman has raised the flag!"
The entire Louis II stadium sent out the joy of Bayern fans and the lamentation of Atletico Madrid fans.
Atletico played very suddenly this time, but Adriano didn't get the timing right.
"Atletico Madrid's attack is very characteristic."
"Look at Bayern this time, Kahn is still fast."
The ball was first given to Thiam but quickly shifted to the left.
When Lizarazur drove forward along the left wing with the ball, Baraja ran over and pressed all the way to the left touchline, while Belletti was on the lookout, looking behind him from time to time.
Cambiaso also came to help, which allowed Atletico to quickly take control of the area.
Baraja, on the other hand, spotted an opportunity and made a decisive move to stop the ball and tripped Lizarazu at the same time.
But the referee didn't blow the whistle.
Baraja quickly kicked the ball to Cambiaso.
The Argentine saw Sforza coming, and instead of stopping the ball immediately, he flicked it lightly with his foot and let the ball slide in front of him, but after avoiding Sforza, he took a small step forward and quickly kicked a long pass.
The ball fell diagonally to the left side of Bayern's defence, that is, to the right of Atletico.
Joaquin cut forward along the right touchline with great speed, caught up with Cambiaso's long pass, jumped up with his back to the right touchline and chested the ball in front of him, and quickly caught up with the ball at his feet.
At this moment, Joaquín paused slightly.
After Kovac got close, Joaquín made a very quick feint, shook off Kovac, and then stepped the ball towards the bottom line and crossed on the right side of the penalty area.
Adriano slotted forward at high speed down the middle and sprinted between Thiam and Link, where Joaquin's cross landed right in front of him and the Brazilian leaped high to get ahead of the onrushing Kahn for the oncoming ball.
The ball swerved in one direction and passed between Kahn's outstretched hands and landed towards the Bayern goal behind him.
Adriano collided with Karn, and both hit the ground.
But the moment he hit the ground, he saw the ball fly into the Bayern goal, and the Brazilian roared, jumped up from the ground, turned and ran, cheering non-stop along the way.
“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!”
"Just over 3 minutes into the game, Atletico scored first!!"
"Adriano scored with a powerful header against Bayern Munich."
'Kahn was clearly unhappy with the goal conceded, believing his team-mates had given Atletico too easily a pass and Adriano's high-speed forward was attacking Thiam's position.
When Adriano rushed to the sidelines, cheering excitedly under the stands of Atletico fans, the whole stadium chanted his name.
The score on the scoreboard also jumped from 0-0 to 0-1.
Atletico take the lead!
……
At the moment when Adriano scored the goal, the president of the Spanish Football Federation, Bilal, almost rushed out of his seat to celebrate.
But he quickly calmed down and forced a smile.
Bilal turned his head sideways and noticed that Platini's expression was also very funny, and he wanted to laugh but endured it.
Beckenbauer was particularly embarrassed.
Just a few minutes ago, he had vowed that Bayern would beat Atletico 2-0 tonight, but as soon as he turned around, Atletico broke the goal against Bayern Munich with a brilliant wide attack.
What's more, Adriano is still attacking Thiam's defensive zone.
'Atletico have started well all the time. Johansson said softly.
Everyone immediately reacted, and immediately followed up to resolve the embarrassment.
Beckenbauer immediately shook his head helplessly, "We really started too badly this time. ”
A winner-winning final, only to be scored by the opponent in the first 3 minutes, how passive is this?
"Still, I am convinced that we can turn the tide."
As the game resumed, Bayern were trying to turn things around, always trying to create a threat in attack.
It even feels like the players are in a bit of a hurry.
It's Atletico.
After switching to 433, the overall rhythm was deliberately slowed, and through their skillful passing, they often controlled the tempo in the back, forcing Bayern to scramble.
Bayern's first threatening attack came in the seventh minute.
Atletico tried to get into the Bayern penalty area, but Thiam was rounded up for a steal.
After the Guinea international broke the ball, he did not pass to his team-mate in front of him, but quickly dribbled forward.
I have to say that Thiam's speed is really fast.
When everyone reacted, he had already rushed to the vicinity of Atletico's penalty area, and sent a pick-up pass, trying to find Pizarro at the back point.
At the critical moment, Van der Sar decisively abandoned the goal, grabbed Pizarro before him, and plucked the ball out of mid-air.
But this time, Thiam's quick forward insertion still made everyone's eyes shine.
His forward insertion was completely different from Lucio's forward insertion, and Lucio didn't dare to rush directly to the front of the opponent's big penalty area like him.
