Super Marshal

Someone once asked Gao Han, who was also watching the game from the sidelines, what is the difference between ordinary fans and the head coach?

After thinking for a long time, Gao Han gave the answer, that is, the perspective is different.

What fans see may be a wonderful performance by the players, a wonderful pass, or a very threatening attack. They will be excited about it, but in the eyes of the head coach, what they see is A certain area has lost momentum, or one's own tactical flaws have not only been exposed by the opponent, but also exploited by the opponent.

One is focused on details, while the other is based on the overall situation.

Just like the current game situation.

The twenty-two players on the court are like twenty-two chess pieces. Gao Han and Ferguson each fight with eleven black and white pieces. They each arrange their troops and try their best to attack the opponent.

At the beginning, Ferguson attacked, but Gao Han was forced to lose the opportunity and could only retreat.

However, Ferguson failed to achieve his tactical goal and was unwilling to give in and continued to attack.

This move has two tactical purposes. One is to score goals, but at the same time it disrupts Gao Han's arrangements and prevents Manchester United from losing its advantage and initiative on the field after Bayern Munich gains a foothold.

If Gao Han's trick to crack Manchester United's tactics just now was considered to be exquisite, then Ferguson's step-by-step approach was also excellent.

What's even worse is that after Manchester United moved forward as a whole, they accelerated their pressing and pressing again, forcing Bayern Munich's midfielder and backfield to make frequent mistakes in passing and receiving. Once Manchester United grabbed the ball, they immediately hit the ball behind them.

Rooney and Tevez took turns stepping in to create threats, and even Giggs frequently pulled into the center to take long-range shots.

Gao Han did not dare to be careless about Manchester United's advancing step by step and immediately pulled Modric back.

The Croatian midfielder is both offensive and defensive. The performance in this game does not look very good, but in fact the effect is very obvious, especially after Bastian Schweinsteiger retreats to the defense line, he is both the father and the boss in the midfield. Mom, you have to defend, connect the frontcourt and backcourt, and do everything you can to get the ball and pass the ball.

It's not easy to be able to hold on in front of the wolf-like Manchester United midfielder.

After Modric retreated, Vidal's position immediately followed suit, wandering around Modric.

When Gao Han had to pull Modric back, Bayern Munich barely stabilized the defense in the midfield and backcourt, but the price paid was also high, and the forward channel from the center was almost completely blocked.

…………

…………

"It's just unbelievable."

"Twenty minutes into the game, Manchester United have already shot eight shots, but Bayern Munich has not had one shot so far. This is simply unbelievable."

"All of us know that Gao Han's team is always known for being the best at attacking in the opening game, but in this Champions League final, they were very embarrassed by Manchester United's opening game. They didn't even have a shot in the 20 minutes. This is simply unbelievable.”

"Manchester United started the game very smoothly and almost suppressed Bayern Munich in the half."

"Since the knockout rounds, the Red Devils have performed better every game. This game was even able to suppress Bayern Munich in such a miserable state. It is really unexpected. Ferguson's reputation as a master tactician is well-deserved."

"Gao Han should make adjustments as soon as possible now. Bayern Munich has never been known for its excellent defense. What they are best at is offense. They should find Manchester United's loopholes as soon as possible and attack them. Otherwise, the result of this game may be different." It’s beyond everyone’s expectation.”

"Okay, let's take a look at Manchester United's attack this time."

"Carrick passed the ball to the left, and Giggs chased it along the left. He caught the ball on the left side of the penalty area and passed it back."

"Matic took a long shot from behind!"

"The shot was too direct, but it was very powerful."

"Neuer's position was very accurate, and Matic's long shot seemed more like it hit his arms."

"The German goalkeeper saved Bayern Munich again."

"Manchester United's offensive was really fierce after the start. I feel that Bayern Munich has not fully found its rhythm and state."

"But this is a 90-minute Champions League final. If the Bundesliga giants cannot adjust as soon as possible and stabilize their position, I am afraid they will lose this game."

"We saw Gao Han walking to the sidelines again, seeming to be waving at Neuer and the players in the backcourt, shouting something."

"Is this the first time in this game that he has come to the sidelines to give instructions?"

"I'm afraid many people don't remember it, but what is certain is that facing Ferguson's Manchester United, Gao Han felt unprecedented pressure. He made frequent adjustments in the first half, but still could not reverse the situation on the field. Bayern Munich even He hasn’t even taken a shot with his feet, which is definitely not in line with the strength of the Bundesliga giants.”

"But this is the Champions League final!"

"Ferguson's Manchester United is like a boxer. After finally knocking down his opponent with one punch, he naturally has to pursue the victory without giving the opponent a chance to breathe. He strives to kill the opponent in one go and will never give the opponent a chance to gain a foothold and counterattack. "

"Bayern Munich's goal kick was slightly adjusted. Neuer threw it directly to Lahm who ran back to take over."

Ram's retracement allowed the team to change from the original long pass to a ground ball.

And one obvious change is that the two full-backs, Lahm and Marcelo, are spread far apart and almost always get the ball close to the sideline. This forces Manchester United's entire pressing formation in the midfield and frontcourt to open up. Bayern Munich seized the opportunity and let two full-backs step in to organize the attack.

First, Ram dribbled the ball from the right, and Robben ran directly to the center. Aguero shouldered the burden of the arrow and rushed forward, but Ram's cross from the right was cleared by Ferdinand and missed an offensive opportunity.

But soon, Bayern Munich came back again.

Marcelo retreated from the left to receive the ball, then led forward. When he encountered Fletcher's defense, he passed the ball straight to the front court.

Ribery pulled to the left and when he received the ball, he formed a one-on-one with O'Shea.

The scar-faced Frenchman is bold and relies on his strong personal strength to defeat O'Shea alone and pass the ball low from the wing.

In the penalty area, Aguero penetrated Manchester United's defense like a bolt of lightning, got ahead of everyone and formed a single shot, and shot directly without waiting for the ball to hit the ground.

"Aguero volleyed, dangerous!!!!"

"Van der Sar, God, Van der Sar lifted Aguero's volley over the crossbar at the critical moment. This is the fingertips of the Dutch goalkeeper. It was his fingers that lifted Aguero at the critical moment. An angry shot."

"The Argentinian forward looked extremely frustrated. This shot was very beautiful and the angle was very tricky, but Van der Sar was really good and calm. He used his fingertips to lift the ball out at the critical moment."

"However, Van der Sar's finger also seems to be injured. We saw that the referee was summoning Manchester United's team doctor to come in. We hope that Van der Sar will not affect the game. Otherwise, it will be a painful blow to Manchester United."

…………

…………

After seeing Van der Sar save Aguero's volley, Gao Han raised his hands and looked extremely depressed.

After being attacked by the opponent for nearly half an hour, it was not easy for him to seize an opportunity to counterattack, and he still made such a high-level fast attack, but he was blocked by Van der Sar.

"I shouldn't have supported him to go to Manchester United in the first place." Gao Han said with a wry smile and shook his head.

Van der Sar, Matic and Pepe, plus Carrick who can barely count, these four players were all favored by Gao Han, but ended up going to Manchester United for various reasons. Some Gao Han even recommended it to Ferguson.

The result was good, these players performed well, but they became their own stumbling blocks.

Matic, Van der Sar and Carrick all played crucial roles in this game.

But Gao Han's words were just a joke, because he knew very well that even if these players did not go to Manchester United, they would go to other teams. Sooner or later, they would be spotted by wealthy teams, and sooner or later they would become his opponents.

In fact, he never worries about meeting opponents. The stronger the opponent, the more excited he becomes.

There is no doubt that Ferguson is a superior opponent.

But no matter how powerful an opponent is, there will always be weaknesses and loopholes.

Manchester United's advantage since the start of the game is based more on physical running coverage and desperate high-position pressing. However, these will continue to be lost as the game progresses and physical energy is consumed.

If Ferguson wants to gamble on a goal, then Bayern Munich will have to defend their goal.

Sometimes Gao Han feels strange when he thinks about it. In the past, he used high positions to press and suppress his opponents, but now it was Bayern Munich who was beaten in the half-court, and it was a Premier League team.

But Bayern Munich's chances are not without, and that is the disconnect between the three lines caused by Manchester United's high-position pressing.

For example, Lahm and Marcelo frequently get opportunities on the wing. This was impossible at the beginning, but now they have it. Why?

The physical exertion of Manchester United's players is very great, and it is no longer enough for them to cover and run like they did at the beginning.

In fact, Gao Han can conclude that as physical energy continues to be consumed, such opportunities will become more and more obvious, and Bayern Munich will attack more and more times.

That shot just now, if not for Van der Sar, Bayern Munich would have scored.

…………

…………

Van der Sar's finger did not affect his game. After simple treatment by the team doctor, the Dutch goalkeeper quickly returned to the game.

But as if to confirm Gao Han's prediction, Bayern Munich began to seize offensive opportunities.

Bastian Schweinsteiger took a corner kick from the right. Lucio grabbed the first spot in the middle and headed the ball towards the goal. However, the ball was a little too high and flew directly over the crossbar and landed on the top of the net.

However, Bayern Munich's two shots posed a threat, which also made the Bayern Munich fans in the Olympia Stadium very excited and everyone cheered.

There was nothing I could do, the half hour after the game started was really depressing.

The entire Manchester United team was playing like a chicken to the bone, suppressing Bayern Munich in a very embarrassing manner, and the front door was even more dangerous.

Now, half an hour has passed, and Manchester United's physical fitness has begun to decline. Bayern Munich has gradually found the feeling of the game and started to play threatening offense. How can this not make the fans excited?

Just two minutes after Lucio's header, Bayern Munich once again seized the opportunity.

Vidal stole the ball in midfield and quickly handed it to Modric.

The Croatian midfielder received the ball and moved forward. Without waiting for Matic to get closer, he passed the ball through the ball and sent the ball forward against the turf, just behind Evans and Leighton Baines. .

Robben, on the other hand, was like a sharp arrow, starting quickly, passing between two Manchester United defenders, successfully countering offside, receiving the ball before everyone else, and entering the penalty area, another one-on-one!

At this time, there was only one Van der Sar standing in front of Robben.

The entire Olympic Stadium was shocked!
