Football’s First Defender

1 to 0, after Bayern broke the deadlock, they were only one goal away from the big score, and they were only one goal away from Bayern's promotion.

There is still enough time for the game, and the Bayern fans at the scene used their biggest cheers, hoping to help the team cheer and equalize the total score as soon as possible.

Bayern, who scored a goal, is full of momentum.

Their game has gotten faster on the offensive end.

And Yang Feng, after a period of defense, finally discovered Bayern's tricks.

"Lewandowski hasn't received a pass on the offensive end for a long time."

And this kind of not catching the ball was not because Yang Feng defended so well, but because the ball never passed to Lewand's side at all.

Except for the few passes at the beginning, Lewandowski was completely ignored by his teammates when he was in the penalty area for as long as 20 minutes.

"Is this a tactic designed by Bayern?"

Recalling the form of the game for nearly 20 minutes, Yang Feng also discovered that Bayern's handling of the final pass was completely different from the previous game, and Lewandowski turned out to be a feint point.

However, can he give up defending Lewandowski?

This is a conspiracy.

It is a clear pairing tactic. If Yang Feng abandons his defensive tactics against Lewandowski, then Bayern's offense may immediately change to focus on Lewandowski.

It is to clearly use Lewandowski's threat to attract the defense, and then hand over the end point to other teammates, but Liverpool's response is actually extremely limited.

Recalling that Bayern's offense was concentrated in the front and rear areas, not only Lewandowski became an "abandoned son", but even Thomas Muller was also a feint point.

The real threat is like Thiago who just scored a goal. Under the cover of the players in front, he suddenly inserted into the threat area and completed a kick.

Yang Feng can only be on the field, temporarily organize his teammates, strengthen the defense of the space in the penalty area, and mark the attacking players after Bayern.

However, Bayern's offensive state today is indeed hot.

When Liverpool's press cannot limit Bayern's pass advancement at all, Bayern can unscrupulously carry out some exquisite short pass cooperation in front of Liverpool's penalty area.

This is the Allianz Arena, and Bayern, who sits at home, knows how to take advantage of the venue to pass the ball to the accurate position faster.

Liverpool played quite passively.

Although it is still necessary to pay a lot of defensive energy when defending Lewandowski, lest Bayern find opportunities on Lewandowski's side again.

But after knowing certain tactics of Bayern, Yang Feng is still willing to share part of his energy and try to expand his defensive range so that he can help other teammates complete part of the defensive tasks.

However, with Lewandowski's active running, the defensive range that Yang Feng can expand is extremely limited. After all, Lewandowski's "activeness" still forces Yang Feng to keep moving with him.

So when Yang Feng was able to make up the defense, he almost always passed the ball towards Yang Feng's area. If it was a little farther away, Yang Feng would be a little weak.

Even with Yang Feng's reminder and occasional supplementary defenses, the reality is that Bayern still has a considerable offensive advantage and created quite a threatening offense.

This is because Liverpool's staffing is still a level behind Bayern.

Especially in the defense of the center.

Although Liverpool's central and frontcourt configuration is mainly defensive, the real defensive player sent in this game is Lucas alone, plus Henderson who can't run to death.

Although the rest of the midfield players, Lallana, Sterling, Coutinho and Sturridge are not bad in defense, their defensive skills and positioning skills are not so good.

It is the willingness to defend, but in front of Bayern's world-class attackers, there are actually too many defensive loopholes.

Thiago's goal before was a realistic display. Lallana maintained a certain following, but he had no corresponding defensive ability at all, which could completely limit the opponent, allowing Thiago to get a header. space.

This is also a loophole in Rogers' ranking formation, which was directly caught by Guardiola.

Liverpool's pressing tactics will fall into such an embarrassment when the pressing cannot gain a defensive advantage.

Of course, Bayern's offensive style of play is not available to all teams.

Because there are very few teams with Bayern's staffing and players with such a strong tactical execution ability.

Bayern's pass and control system, and players such as Ribery's explosive performance, can quickly break through Liverpool's midfield press defense.

If they can get a two-goal lead at halftime and take the initiative, it will be safer for Bayern.

Guardiola hopes that his disciples can achieve such a goal, and he is constantly urging the team on the sidelines to continue to strengthen their offense.

Ribery continued his wonderful offensive play.

Not only was he attacking Liverpool's right wing alone, Alaba behind him was also constantly slipping forward to create a threat.

This time it was a small-scale cooperation between the two. Ribery made an inward cut and broke through, and then passed the ball directly to Alaba who was plugging in from the left side.

Alaba quickly went to the bottom and directly hit the goal with a cross.

This time Yang Feng rushed forward decisively, abandoned Lewandowski, ran to the forward position, and completed a header clearance before Thiago, who only gave Bayern a corner kick.

Alonso's corner kick was still aimed at the front point. Under Yang Feng's reminder, Liverpool made sufficient defensive preparations to protect the front and rear points.

Alonso's pass to the front point this time was first cleared by Lucas with a header.

Afterwards, he continued to look for a forward pass, but was cleared by Yang Feng to get out of the baseline.

Two consecutive forward corner kicks did not pose too much threat. Alonso chose a short corner kick this time.

The ball was sent to Alaba on the left.

Alaba tried to pass the ball, but under Liverpool's rapid forward pressure, the ball could only be passed back to Lahm who was lagging behind.

Sterling's quick press wanted to steal the ball, but under the impact of Sterling, Lahm still stabilized his body and kicked the ball to the right.

After Bernat received the ball, under the already scattered offensive formation, he chose Boateng who had just passed from the penalty area.

Seeing that his side still holds the right to attack, Boateng, who was about to return to defense, chose to pull to the open space on the right.

When Bernat passed the ball, Boateng was empty.

Moreno rushed over from the penalty area, but although Boateng's movement speed was very slow, there was enough distance and space for him to complete the pass preparation freely.

A bottom pass from the right passed directly to the goal.

This is not a high ball pass, but the effect of kicking a fallen leaf ball.

In the front position, Thomas Muller threw his body out, trying to complete the grab, while Yang Feng desperately stretched his legs to block in front of Muller, trying to complete the block.

However, Muller kicked empty!

Yang Feng's defense is also air defense.

Boateng's pass landed early, allowing Muller to kick in the air. The ball just missed, and the goalkeeper Mignolet at the near corner couldn't react in time.

And the football that missed to the back point was successfully picked up by Thiago who inserted from the back.

With a late kick, Thiago easily hit the empty goal and scored twice!

In the 39th minute of the game, Thiago helped Bayern lead 2-0.

And completely regained the score, occupying the initiative to advance.
