Midfielder Ruler

Chapter 218 The winning streak is about to end?

The camera of the live broadcast successfully captured Wenger's coming to the Allianz Arena to scout the enemy's situation, but he became a commentator with topics other than the game, but it did not cause their topics to be biased outside the game. After all, the focus of the game was Bayern and Dortmund. ?????·

At the beginning of the second half, Heynckes did not take the lead in making substitution adjustments. Schweinsteiger suffered a small injury during the international break. Considering that Gustavo's defensive ability is better, only Maintaining the status quo.

In his heart, he was more worried that Klopp's Dortmund would do the opposite at the beginning of the second half.

as predicted!

Taking advantage of the kick-off, Dortmund launched an offensive. They advanced layer by layer through the pass control ability of Tang Zheng, Pirlo and Gotze, slowly threatening the goal guarded by Neuer.

Thanks to the presence of Gustavo in the middle, Kroos can focus more on switching from defense to offense, so he doesn't need to pay too much attention to defense.

Dortmund's attack was very efficient and a shot was formed, but Gotze, who received the ball, hurriedly completed the shot under the interference of Boateng. The crosshair was not adjusted properly and went wide of the goal.

Neuer did not kick the ball forward with a big kick, but slowly controlled the ball through the back line and passed it to the midfield.

But Klopp mainly mentioned this during the break, and the frontcourt players must press high when Neuer took the short goal kick, forcing them to avoid mistakes in the midfield and clear the siege.

Bayern's frontcourt Gomez has height and strength, but it is difficult for him to fight for the landing point in the double-team of Santana and Hummels, and even if he barely wins, he cannot accurately ferry to his teammates.

It is a big taboo in the game that the offense does not turn into a change of possession, and Bayern just made such a mistake.

Dortmund's high pressing tactics allowed them to quickly gain control of the football, and then the experienced Pirlo chose the attacking method in the midfield.

If Tang Zheng gets the ball in the frontcourt, he will take advantage of Bayern's failure to gain a firm foothold to speed up the offensive rhythm in the midfield, so as to achieve the goal of being closer to the goal.

The former Borussia Dortmund legend and current Bayern Munich executive Sammer commented on Tang Zheng in this way. He said: "Tang is terrifying when he runs, and the most terrifying thing is that he is close to the goal."

This sentence is not unreasonable, because the running Tang Zheng can use his personal influence to disrupt the opponent's defense system and benefit himself.

The reason why he is more terrifying near the goal is that he can pass and shoot, but you can't defend the pass when you defend the shot, and you can't prevent the shot if you defend the pass.

This is also the fundamental reason why Tang Zheng got double 20+ data last season.

Five minutes into the second half, Dortmund had the upper hand.

Both Ribery and Robben, who were placed high hopes by Bayern fans, failed to show their own characteristics, and Heynckes had to consider substitutions in advance.

In the 52nd minute, Schweinsteiger, an active German international, replaced Gustavo, a defensive midfielder who was unable to support the team's offense on the offensive end.

There is no problem for Bayern, who is behind in the score, to strengthen the offensive organization ability in the middle, but when Gustavo is off, who will do the dirty work?

Kroos was born as an attacking midfielder, and now he plays an organizational defensive midfielder. Schweinsteiger is also known for his offense, but his defensive ability can only be said to be average. Therefore, the commentator of German TV Z2 Michael Reti said a little puzzled: " There is nothing wrong with substituting and adjusting thinking, but isn’t the time for substituting a bit early?”

It is no wonder that he has such thoughts again. The lack of a strong midfielder is quite passive in the transition from offense to defense, so that Bayern had to use tactical fouls to link Dortmund's quick counterattack. ·

Two minutes later, Klopp also made a substitution adjustment. He replaced Gross Kreutz with the faster Kuba to increase the counterattack speed.

※※※

Heynckes aims to increase midfield control,

Klopp's purpose is to strengthen the counterattack speed, and the two different ideas create a completely different situation in the next game.

Bayern Munich regained control of the midfield by increasing the ball-holding points, while Dortmund had to shrink the defense under Klopp's arrangement and assist the defense through the active movement of the midfielders.

This is Klopp's tailor-made tactics for Dortmund.

The young people are physically fit, and they can't sleep without running 13,000 meters in each game. The young people can also perform the defensive tasks assigned by Klopp well.

So even if Schweinsteiger's appearance in the game helped Bayern regain the disadvantage, it did not actually help Bayern increase their chances of shooting.

Tang Zheng's running position on the offensive end was erratic, and his position selection on the defensive end was also reassuring. He would always appear where he should appear most.

It wasn't until the fifteenth minute of the second half that Bayern Munich scored their first shot on goal since the start of the second half.

The fanatical atmosphere at the Allianz Arena continued, and the players on the field played harder and harder.

It was Bayern Munich's defensive right that worried the home fans, who once again left Gotze with a tactical foul, and Dortmund captain Kyle put pressure on referee Stark for another yellow card.

Perhaps because of Bayern's home court, Stark just smiled and didn't speak.

Heynckes naturally saw the crumbling defensive right, and he even had a premonition that if Rafinha was not replaced as soon as possible, the team's defense would have problems sooner or later.

Boateng and Schweinsteiger have successively come to the right to assist in the defense. If the referee hadn't given face just now, it is estimated that another team would have sent off one person.

In a subsequent dead ball opportunity, Bayern were forced to make the second substitution adjustment of the game. Planic replaced Rafinha. He played at left back, allowing Lahm to return to the familiar right and cooperate with Robben. .

Although this substitution was forced and adjusted, the effect was very good.

Ram, who was born as a right back, cooperated tacitly with Robben on the right. The defense of Schmelzer, Kyle and Santana had no way to prevent the cooperation between Robben and Ram.

Fortunately, Tang Zheng chased back very deep and made up for it in time. With a shovel, he kicked the football out of the baseline, only giving Bayern a corner kick.

Seeing the big number ten behind him, Robben naturally clenched his fists. He was very distressed. If he had been braver and chose to forcefully speed up and wipe it in, it might have created an opportunity.

It turned out that the aggressive Tang Zheng had no choice but to compromise and asked for a corner kick.

Hey……

Such an opponent is really a headache.

Ribery's corner kick was pushed out by Lewandowski who returned to the penalty area to help defend. Piszczek, who was actively running, grabbed control before the football bounced off the sideline, and Dortmund turned from defense to offense.

The Bayern players did not love to fight, nor did they press as high as Dortmund. That was not their style of play, but filed back to their own half, waiting for the next wave of offensive opportunities.

After getting the ball, Pirlo saw that he had no chance to counterattack, so he signaled his teammates not to rush and advance slowly.

The game passed very quickly with the two sides coming and going, and it entered 70 minutes in a blink of an eye.

Although no goals were scored, both the fans at the scene and those sitting in front of the TV were very satisfied with the game.

Both sides have played their own technical and tactical level, the only pity is that they did not score.

※※※

As the game entered 70 minutes, the running enthusiasm of the players on both sides declined.

Bayern has always been a big player in international football, and Dortmund, as the winner of the European Triple Crown last season, also contributed a lot of international football to the national teams, so players who participated in the international match day have physical problems.

Besides, there will be Champions League matches in the middle of next week, so I have to be distracted by it.

Lewandowski played two games on behalf of Poland on the international match day, and his running enthusiasm dropped significantly. Klopp made a second substitution adjustment, replacing Lewando with Barrios for the unadjusted Vsky.

Since Barrios was injured in the Copa America this summer, his state has not adjusted well, but he still played well against Bayern's defensive players who ran for more than 70 minutes.

He fully followed coach Klopp's tactical requirements to move around and help Gotze and Kuba attract firepower.

For the Bayern players, although Barrios has not adjusted to the best state, the defensive players did not underestimate him. As Dortmund's goal scorer in the past two seasons, he has this deterrent power.

That's... exactly what Klopp wants Barrios to do.

Klopp turned his head to look at Tang Zheng, who also had a certain decline in running, and frowned.

Tang Zheng is the player with the best physical fitness in the Dortmund team, but he flew more than half of the world on the international match day, and the physical energy consumption caused by the long journey is no less than that of the German national team.

However, as Tang Zheng is the most important part of Dortmund, he cannot be replaced, especially in this kind of Bundesliga peak match.

Standing on the field, he will pose a huge threat to Bayern.

Eight games, eleven goals, not everyone can hit the data.

Of course, physical exertion is serious and mutual.

Robben and Franck Ribery both represented the national team in the 2012 Euro Cup qualifiers held during the international break, and their energy consumption was no less than Tang Zheng's, so the game situation was relatively balanced.

German sky commentator Marcel Leff watched Tang Zheng complete a long-range shot but fired an anti-aircraft gun in the live broadcast, and raised his brows: "Tang's long-range shot is really outrageous, I think... this is the first time he is in The international match day is directly related to representing the national team in the World Cup qualifiers..."

"woo woo woo"

At the same time, the Bayern fans at the Allianz Arena seized the opportunity to boo loudly, laughing at Tang Zheng's long shot and firing anti-aircraft guns.

But Bayern goalkeeper Neuer did not laugh, but rushed out of the penalty area and yelled at Kroos: "How can you let him take a long shot from this position?"

Cross felt very wronged, Tang Zheng fired anti-aircraft guns in his long-range shots, why is he still responsible?

In fact, it was no wonder that Neuer reacted so strongly, the goals he scored by Tang Zheng were all insulting in nature, if Tang Zheng scored another long shot in this game, then he would definitely lose face.

Kroos, who wanted to say something, was pushed away by central defender Boateng, so as to avoid quarrels with his teammates.

The on-site director keenly captured this end, and Duan Huan, the commentator of Central 5, said with a smile: "I think Tang Zheng's goal has cast a huge shadow on Neuer, so he will be dissatisfied with Kroos for allowing Tang Zheng to shoot long shots."

This scene also shocked the Bayern fans, they were complacent just now because of Tang Zheng's long shot and fired anti-aircraft guns.

With the reduction in running caused by the decline in physical fitness of both sides, the excitement of the game has dropped significantly. British Sky commentator Andy Gray complained to the German Football Association: "How can the national derby be arranged after the international match day? This is very unprofessional .”

The head coaches of both sides can naturally see that the players' physical fitness has declined, but there is no way to solve these, so they can only grit their teeth and persist.

The most troublesome thing is Heynckes. If Dortmund wins a game at home, they will be relegated to second place in the league.

The best way to reduce physical fitness is to make substitutions and adjust, but Bayern has no one to change.

Gomez is in good condition and can be a bridgehead in front, and he cannot be replaced.

Robben and Ribery are even more so...

Cross, Muller?

just forget it.

The bench players may not be comparable to them.

Klopp's thinking is relatively simple. The team is now leading without any pressure. Even if it takes 10,000 steps back to draw an away game, it is acceptable. Anyway, there will be one less game, and defeating Leverkusen in the make-up match can also reach the top of the standings.

But there is no rush to adjust the last substitution.

Because now it is Bayern that is in a hurry!

The two sides continued to switch offense and defense rhythms in turn, but failed to create absolute opportunities.

It is worth mentioning that the fanatical atmosphere at the Allianz Arena is still fanatical, and every fan at the scene cheers hysterically for the team they support.

This is an offensive opportunity for Bayern, and Schweinsteiger organized the attack as patiently as possible after being instructed by the head coach Heynckes.

Robben, who had been hugging the winger, suddenly retracted, and Schmelzer followed.

The football was still passed back and forth at the feet of Schweinsteiger and Kroos. The trio of Tang Zheng, Kyle and Pirlo were not in a hurry and chose to stick to their positions.

Suddenly, Schweinsteiger, who had the ball, made a long pass to attack the right flank, where Schmelzer had been.

A red figure is cutting in at high speed along the right sideline, running in the same direction as the football flying in mid-air!

"Philipplum"

German TV 2 commentator Michael Reti shouted suddenly.

Gotze's physical decline after participating in the international competition day was also obvious, and he gritted his teeth and buried himself in pursuit.

Lahm, who was running, unexpectedly chose to keep the ball and sweep the football into the penalty area about seven or eight meters away from the baseline!

No one thought of this choice, because Bayern's offensive rhythm has always been very slow.

Now suddenly speeding up, Dortmund's defensive players didn't have time to react at all.

But Gomez, who had been waiting for his teammates for a long time, was like a tiger descending the mountain. Hummels didn't hold back. He suddenly accelerated from the middle to meet the front point where the football was flying.

The tacit understanding between Santana and Hummels is not as good as that of Subotic, and the positions of the two have not been clearly explained.

Gomez swung his right foot in the running, and by the time Santana reacted, it was too late, and Gomez kicked the football first.

Goalkeeper Weidenfeller's body instantly pressed down, but the shot was close at hand, and Gomez's shot was very accurate, and the football flew into the goal before Weidenfeller...

In the 79th minute of the game, Bayern Munich, who were playing at home, equalized the score when Dortmund should not have conceded a goal!

Central 5 commentator Duan Xuan raised his eyebrows and said: "Could it be... is Dortmund's winning streak against Bayern coming to an end?"
