Being behind in the score did not panic Bayern's players. They are all very experienced players, and they are also mentally prepared for this kind of falling behind - you must know that they all have a lot of honors, including the Bundesliga championship. , Champions League champion
So after Atletico Madrid¡¯s celebration ended, they started to attack, intending to get the score back. They were not worried that they could not score because they had many good offensive players.
However, Hitzfield has already frowned on the sidelines. As a coach, he can always see more clearly than the players on the field. Now Bayern's offense can have some effects and can gain some advantages on the wing, but After pressing the attack, their backcourt gap will appear to be very large. Coupled with the characteristics of several central defenders, their backcourt gap will be amplified even larger!
What to do now? Continue to attack? What if Atletico Madrid continues to hit us with quick counterattacks? Recycle defense? Already one goal behind, the young head coach doesn't mind killing the rest of the time!
If the previous head coaches had to eat very elegantly for honors and championships, and also paid attention to a beautiful victory and image, but Dick, a young man, doesn't seem to care about this at all, as he proved in the UEFA Cup last season. In this regard, he won the two games against Parma in the safest way. In the game against Roma, after winning a big score at home, he started to defend on the away game. In the end, The defense resulted in a draw - the eating appearance was too ugly!
Many head coaches feel that this approach is wrong - just like in the Young and Dangerous movies, those old Young and Dangerous boys angrily said that today's young people do not care about loyalty, do not pay respect to their second brother, and only care about money. They They were unhappy, they were heartbroken, they thought that the general would not be the countrybut Dick didn't care about this approach. He knew that only by winning the championship would he be qualified to leave his name in history!
In fact, there have been such extremely conservative head coaches before. Cooper is a good example. However, Cooper did not win a championship, but Dick has already won two heavyweight championships. There is a lesson from this experience. , Hitzfield really believes that he will be very satisfied with the result of a small victory by one goal.
So he just watched from the sidelines, hoping that the team's offense would go more smoothly, while sighing at the country's unscrupulous generals - if Effenberg, Sauer and Jerry Metz were not injured, then Bayern would not be where it is now. That's a good way of playing, at least you don't need two full-backs to insert too deep to gain an advantage on the wing!
Bayern's offense began to constantly look for opportunities, while Atletico Madrid defended steadily, ready to counterattack at any time - and they did not have too many concerns in defense. Effenberg was not here, and Basler had already left. , Sauer is injured, and Bayern now lacks good players at set pieces, so they also appear to be quite tough in defense.
Two minutes after Atletico Madrid scored, Hector brought down Salihamidzic on the wing. Bayern got a free kick. Sforza passed the ball into the penalty area and was interfered by Thuram. , although Thiam grabbed the first point, he hit it too high and to the side.
The next game seemed dull. Under Atletico Madrid's defense, Bayern failed to create too many opportunities. Bayern also began to pay more attention to Atletico Madrid's counterattack. They would rather pass the ball to Atletico Madrid when attacking. Any chance of counterattack, the scene began to become dull.
Vicente completed a counterattack through a breakthrough. This time, under the defense of Kovac and Hargreaves, he could only barely break through and then shot. Kahn easily got the ball, and Bayern quickly launched During the counterattack, Sforza passed the ball from the center to Sagnol who was assisting. Sagnol took the ball and forced a pass, and then passed the ball into the penalty area under Capdevila's defense. , Elber jumped in front of Thuram and hit the goal, and the ball slightly missed the far post.
"Well, there seems to be a problem with the air defense" Dick thought in his heart. After all, the cooperation between Stam and Thuram is not tacit enough. They have never played together, and Bayern's The offensive ability from the wing is also quite outstanding. If the game continues like this, it seems impossible to maintain this goal lead by relying solely on defense.
"We still need to make a fuss about counterattack"
Dick's eyes swept across the frontcourt, where Atletico Madrid's frontcourt trident was constantly cruising, waiting for the opportunity to counterattack - although at this time, only one of Bayern's two wide players would always go forward. Attack, however, is not without opportunities.
Dick stood up and then made a gesture to return to the court. Atletico Madrid began to strengthen the defense of high-altitude balls in the penalty area. No matter how Bayern's forwards moved in the penalty area, they only guarded a few key points. Without wavering, Bayern's several consecutive crosses from both wings were accurately judged by Stam.Finally, they came out one by one - Stam's strength in this aspect is still extremely outstanding!
After Stam made another header to clear the ball, Dick raised his thumb to the court, and then sat back in his seat with a satisfied look. After seeing this scene in the broadcast footage, some people The commentator sighed: "Dick is indeed a coach who pays great attention to defense Stam's joining has once again set a new record for Atletico Madrid's single signing, and from now on, this money is spent very much. It's worth it. Atletico Madrid's defense was already very good last season. It was the key to them winning the league championship and the UEFA Cup championship. However, Atletico Madrid seems to be a little worse when it comes to defending high-altitude balls. Now that Stam has joined There is no doubt that this flaw has been made up for. Although the cooperation between him and Thuram is not tacit enough, for players who have only played four games together, this performance is good enough. As time goes by, As time goes by, Stam's performance will only get better and better. It is almost impossible for such a superstar, especially a defensive player, to suddenly decline in form. This season's Atletico Madrid has set off its own wave in the Champions League. It seems that There will be no more objections.
Seeing that Dick seemed to sit back with peace of mind, Heathfield frowned, and then looked down at the time - it was almost forty minutes into the first half. If he stepped up his attack to equalize the score at this time, it seemed that the second half would still be over. That's a dozen
So Heathfield stood up and made a sign of attacking.
At the same time as he stood up, Dick also stood up and also made a pressing gesture towards the court!
When Bayern's players began to organize an attack in the frontcourt, Atletico Madrid began to press forward. When they saw that Atletico Madrid no longer retreated to defend in the penalty area, Bayern's players felt that this was their opportunity to attack. , however, soon, they began to feel the tremendous pressure brought to them by Atletico Madrid!
Bayern's midfielder wanted to pass the ball to the forwards, allowing three forwards with good speed and skills to break through Atletico Madrid's defense, which had begun to become a little loose. However, they soon discovered that the pressure in Atletico Madrid's midfield Next, they had no way to do this. When they were forced to pass the ball to the wing, Atletico Madrid had already expanded its pressing area to the wing!
After Sagnol received the ball, he was immediately pressed by Vicente who returned to defend. At the same time, Baraja also pressed from one side. Seeing that Pizarro in front of him was also being marked by Capdevila, in the middle The two midfielders were under pressure from Makelele and Belleron. In desperation, Sagnol could only choose to pass back, but the ball had just flown halfway when Belleron lifted his foot in the middle and passed the ball. It stopped midway!
Seeing Belleron steal the ball in the middle, Bayern's midfielder immediately started to press Belleron, and on the other hand, he quickly started to defend for fear of Atletico Madrid's fast break. However, Belleron was not in a hurry to launch an attack. He pulled the ball and turned around to get rid of Sforza who came up to press him, and then passed the ball safely to Baraja. Baraja and Hector passed the ball back and forth before passing the ball back to Bei again. Lairon's feet.
"Atletico Madrid has shifted into a positional battle It seems that Bayern has become very wary of Atletico Madrid's counterattack after scoring a goal on Atletico Madrid's counterattack!"
During the commentator's explanation, Atletico Madrid players gradually pushed the ball into the midfield, and Bayern began to press in their own half. However, under Belleron's organization, Atletico Madrid was not disrupted by the opponent's press. The position was lost - of course this has a lot to do with Bayern's reduced midfield control.
Under Atletico Madrid's back and forth pass, Sforza could only interfere with Atletico Madrid's pass. Although Hargreaves could run, he could not move his position too far forward, because if he moved forward If so, there will be no protective force at the front of the penalty area
Heathfield's three-four-three lineup is far inferior to the three-five-two lineup three years ago in terms of midfield pressure, especially in the middle - but Heathfield can't help it. This is also a coincidence. It's hard to make a meal without rice. Although there are many people in the midfield, but three main players were injured in one go. Even Bayern will be quite embarrassed in terms of personnel scheduling.
Belleron passed the ball to Baraja, and then ran towards the wing. His running attracted the attention of Bayern defenders, but Baraja did not pass the ball to Belleron. The ball was passed to Jorgensen who inserted from the side to the center.
Jorgensen picked up the ball at the front of the penalty area, and Hargreaves pressed forward. He seemed to be unable to stand due to Hargreaves, so he could only choose to turn around to protect the ball. At the moment of turning around, he raised his foot. The ball was distributed to the wing and handed to Belleron who took the ball from the wing!
Lizarazu and Link began to press towards Belleron. Bayern's defensive focus once again shifted from the center to the wing, but Belleron raised his foot at the moment of receiving the ball.??Left it to the middle again!
After Jorgensen attracted Hargreaves out, a small gap appeared at the front of Bayern's penalty area. Belleron seized this opportunity to pass the ball over, and Jardel caught the ball at the front of the penalty area!
Thiam immediately pounced on him. Jardel's turn and volley from this place was also quite threatening. He pressed forward immediately, intending to use his body to block Jardel, but he ignored one thing - Jardel Del is a Brazilian player. Although his foot skills are not particularly good, facing Thiam who rushed over hastily and quite fiercely, Jardel was still very confident in rushing past him
When Thiam was about to stick to Jardel, Jardel quickly dunked the ball and then rushed past him!
The Atletico Madrid fans in the stands simultaneously let out cheers of surprise!
