"Hi, Messi" In the player tunnel of the Allianz Stadium, a hand suddenly stretched out from behind and put it on Messi's shoulder. Looking back, it was Robben. Messi smiled and nodded, "Hello, Robben." The two just said hello and passed by because they had no friendship. Not far away, several players on the team were talking to the Bayern Munich players. They didn't seem to have much thoughts. Perhaps this is because they are inherently optimistic and positive. After playing against Bayern Munich in the first round, Ye Qiu really hid many players in the team in one breath in the game against Sunderland. Many people may not notice anything, but Messi knows very well that this time The ban was true, or in other words, this was Ye Qiu's most severe warning. Having followed Ye Qiu in football for so many years, Messi knows Ye Qiu¡¯s character very well. First he lost to Southampton, and then he was tied with Bayern Munich at home. Ye Qiu must have been mad, because so far this season, the team has The momentum is unprecedentedly good, the FA Cup is extremely lucky, there is no strong opponent, and the league is won early. Under this situation, Ye Qiu must have pinned his hopes on the Champions League, but the team's performance made him feel very dissatisfied. He got angry in the locker room and gave all the players the opportunity to hide in the snow during the game against Sunderland. As a wake-up call, he was reminding everyone not to offend his nirvana. Although he was not named, Messi is also very clear that his performance this season is indeed poor. Ye Qiu has also mentioned this several times in the past. In the games against Southampton and Bayern Munich, Messi's performance was not enough. Ideal, especially when playing against Bayern Munich, he seemed to have disappeared, which made Ye Qiu very dissatisfied. Sometimes when he thinks about it, Messi doesn¡¯t know what he is doing. He loves Tottenham Hotspur and is also very dissatisfied. I respect everyone on the team, including Mauro Tassotti, but he just always feels a little unmotivated and not excited enough to play. In the past, he could be happy for a while when he scored a goal, and sometimes he even had that kind of scalp. A tingling feeling. But now, for him, scoring goals is as common as eating and sleeping. Many times, he repeatedly reminded himself to work hard, be diligent, and persevere, but he didn't know why. After a game, he might have scored a goal, or he might have assisted, or he might have performed well, but he just couldn't find that early The feeling I had when I was playing football in 2016, the feeling of being full of anticipation and freshness in every game. "Is it really because I'm slacking off?" Messi sighed secretly in his heart. Bayern Munich, playing at home, sent out all its main players in this game. The goalkeeper is Neuer, the defense is Alaba, Dante, Boateng and Rafinha, and the double midfielder in the midfield is Bastian Schweinsteiger. And Lahm, the frontcourt is Thomas Muller, Tony Kroos and Robben, and the lone forward is Mandzukic. This is also Bayern Munich's most powerful main lineup this season. It is different from the 433 tactic that Guardiola promoted in Barcelona in the past. It uses a 3l double midfielder tactic. In this game, Tottenham Hotspur still has cold main left back Marcelo, goalkeeper Cech, and the defense is Azpilicueta, Thiago Silva, Kompany and Kyle Walker. , the midfielder is Ramsey, Matic and Vidal, and the frontcourt is a combination of Ribery, Lewandowski and Messi. Because it was a home game, at the Allianz Arena, Bayern Munich pressed forward from the beginning, adopting the midfield and frontcourt pressing and pressing tactics that Barcelona is good at, while Tottenham Hotspur sought stability in the opening, so they were smaller. return. After the opening, Bayern Munich quickly created an opportunity. Thomas Muller on the left received a pass from Bastian Schweinsteiger behind him and wanted to cut inside, but Vidal had already blocked the position first, so he He made a direct pass, trying to find Mandzukic in the middle. At the front of Tottenham Hotspur's penalty area, Mandzukic leaned against Thiago Silva and stopped the ball with his foot. He felt that Thiago Silva behind him was obviously restricting his left Side, that is, not allowing him to turn towards Tottenham Hotspur's right wing, because he is a right-footed player, so it is very convenient for him to turn around and hit the goal with his right foot. As a last resort, Mandzukic could only choose to turn to the left, but his left foot was not good and he was outside the penalty area. Moreover, Kompany was also disturbing him, so the shot did not have any strength at all and was directly missed. Cech was confiscated. After that, Bayern Munich still adopted a highly proactive ball-possession style, but their style of play was very different from Heynckes' period or Guardiola's Barcelona period, but it also had many similarities. The place. For example, when the team gets the ball from the defense, the first thing Bayern Munich thinks of is not to launch a counterattack immediately, but to find a way to control the ball first, observe the situation clearly and then launch an attack. But in this way , there is no way to talk about counterattack, and some prime time for counterattack is wasted. This is also very similar to the Barcelona period. For example, Xavi's spinning in circles is actually to protect the ball. Ye Qiu knows Guardiola very well. It¡¯s not that the Spaniard doesn¡¯t understand the current situation and trends in football. He understands it, but he is arrogant and wants to find his own football. He has to insist on possession tactics and play. , further seeking changes in rhythm and incorporating more things, such as height and body. There is no so-called good or bad style of play. If Guardiola follows this set of ball control play and effectively finds an operating mechanism that can suddenly attack at a high speed while controlling the ball at a slow speed, then their set His playing style will become very threatening, but from the current point of view, there are many things restricting him. For example, the Bayern Munich players' technical skills, passing and receiving skills and shortcomings in running make Bayern Munich's threatening passes much less than Barcelona's. Therefore, at first glance, they have an advantage on the scene, but in fact they have no effective As for offensive methods, they lack penetrating offensive weapons. In the past, in Barcelona, ??there were Xavi and Iniesta, as well as Pedro, plus Van Persie in front, and a whole set of technical and tactical frameworks as the basis, so Guardiola's Barcelona could play very smoothly and gorgeously, but Mandzukic Not Robin van Persie, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Lahm, not Xavi and Iniesta. A lot of details make Guardiola¡¯s tactics somewhat acclimatized. When Ye Qiu and Mauro Tassotti were preparing before the game, they combined the experience of the first round of the two sides and clearly formulated a set of targeted tactics. Because Mandzukic is a right-footed player, they targeted the left-footed player. Thomas Muller restricted his inward cuts, cut off his connection with Mandzukic and Toni Kroos, and did not let him go down, but allowed him to cross. Because of such a cross, it is difficult to pose much threat to Tottenham Hotspur's defense. Azpilicueta on the right is different when defending Robben. Robben's sharpest weapon is cutting in, and his left foot will be on the right, so he is allowed to go down, but try to reduce his crosses. And the connection with Mandzukic. Judging from the opening, Tottenham Hotspur's defensive position was stretched very wide. Bayern Munich took the initiative to press forward and adopted high-intensity midfield and frontcourt pressure, hoping to directly suppress Tottenham Hotspur in the half. , or even within a thirty-meter area. To use what Guardiola said jokingly when he met Ye Qiu before the game, he wanted Ye Qiu to see the progress he had made after a year's rest. At the very least, he wanted to let Ye Qiu see the difference between him and the Guardiola of the past. . In fact, there are differences, but progress is not necessarily the same. This kind of thing is a matter of opinion and wisdom. ??At least, from the perspective of game dominance, Bayern Munich now is not as good as Barcelona at its peak. Tottenham Hotspur played on the field and wanted a stable start, so they did not play hastily. However, Bayern Munich was very involved from the beginning, especially the kind of players who actively ran around to create a numerical advantage in local areas and invested troops. It was very big, but after ten minutes of playing, Guardiola also realized the danger and did not dare to continue playing like this. As soon as Bayern Munich retreated, Tottenham Hotspur's overall formation came out, and the two sides began to stalemate in the midfield. However, from the beginning, Tottenham Hotspur had very little time to control the ball. On the contrary, Bayern Munich almost Total control of possession. Seeing that his side had such an obvious advantage in possession, but failed to form an effective offensive offensive, Bastian Schweinsteiger also began to further increase his efforts to push forward. After all, there is Lahm beside him. . But when Schweinsteiger pushed forward, Vidal, who had been prepared for a long time, chased back from the front, stole the ball, and passed the ball to Kyle Walker. The moment the ball was lost, Bayern Munich's reaction mechanism was exactly the same as Barcelona's. The difference was that they did not have a player who could stick to Kyle Walker immediately, and many people had to run over, such as Thomas Muller. Kyle Walker caught the ball on the right and saw Thomas Muller and Bastian Schweinsteiger approaching him. He immediately passed the ball back and passed it behind center defender Kompany, and Belgium The central defender ran back and passed the ball back to the penalty area before Mandzukic could get close. Cech could not hold the ball with his hands, but he stopped the ball with his feet and kicked it out to Thiago Silva. At this time, the Brazilian central defender had already moved to the left side of the top of the penalty area and was receiving the ball. When he got the ball, he turned around calmly, because Cech passing the ball to him was actually reminding him that he was safe. If it is unsafe, Cech will remind him loudly and will not even pass the ball to him. Thiago Silva turned around and Mandzukic was a bit far away from him, so he led him forward, pulled Robben over, and then passed it to Azpilicueta who was close to the left wing. After the Spaniard stopped the ball, without waiting for Rafinha to get closer, he passed it back to Matic who was pressing forward in the middle. Matic stopsFinally, there was Ram in front of him. At this time, he was already close to the center line, but Matic did not stick to the ball too much, because he saw that Rafinha was grabbing the ball, and there was a large gap behind him, and Riviera Berry was on the left side, raising his hand for the ball. I saw the Serbian rub his left foot and deflect the diagonal pass from the left. It crossed the center line and came to the left side of Bayern Munich's 30-meter zone. Close to the left sideline, Ribery stopped the ball with his chest. Moving forward, he quickly caught up with him, and no one in front was guarding him. After Ribery rushed into the 30-meter area, Boateng realized the danger and left the penalty area. But as soon as he moved, Ribery passed the ball diagonally behind him. Ramsey quickly passed Boateng. He rushed into the penalty area, received the ball on the left side of the penalty area, passed across the middle, and Lewandowski followed up and shot with his right foot. "GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL" "Lewandowski scored. Tottenham Hotspur scored in the 17th minute." "This was a well-planned counterattack after stealing the ball. Bayern Munich's midfield and frontcourt pressing tactics faced Tottenham Hotspur did not work, especially their excessive emphasis on regional pressing, which caused their players to press too close, leaving a large gap behind them." Tottenham Hotspur rushed up and down everyone. After leaving the stadium, they rushed to the sidelines and hugged each other. "Tottenham Hotspur are temporarily ahead in the total score I. The current situation is a bit unfavorable to Bayern Munich because they need to score goals, which may allow them to play more proactively." Ye Qiu saw Lewandov After Ski scored, everyone laughed, "He said he wanted to give me a report card, and I will teach him a good lesson." Mauro Tassotti, who was standing next to Ye Qiu, was also in a similar mood. Yes, in fact, these were the details he focused on before the game. Vidal stared at Schweinsteiger. Don't push the piggy too hard. Instead, give him some opportunities and space to press up. After he presses up, try to steal the ball and counterattack. Bayern Munich has a Achilles heel, or in other words, they also press in the midfield and frontcourt, but their pressing and pressing efficiency is much worse than Barcelona, ??so they often have to invest more running and troops, but there are only so many people on the court. The more troops you invest, the more flaws will be exposed in other areas. This is a detail issue that affects the whole body. After the restart, Bayern Munich is obviously strengthening its attack and pressure on Tottenham Hotspur. This is their only bargaining chip to win the game, because in terms of offensive methods In terms of rich diversity, they are not as good as Tottenham Hotspur. In terms of defensive solidity, they are not as good as Tottenham Hotspur. Even in terms of midfield strength, they are still not as good as Tottenham Hotspur. In this situation, the only thing they can rely on is ball control and pressing tactics. Guardiola has yet to find an effective way to enrich the team's offensive methods. The offense is not flexible enough. This is an old problem that has existed since the Heynckes period, so don't look at Bayern Munich beating opponents everywhere in many games, but when they encounter a team with a relatively compact defensive formation, or It is said that Bayern Munich is a team with better defense, but there is nothing they can do about it. It¡¯s like the beginning of this game. In the first ten minutes, Tottenham Hotspur retreated and adopted a stable defensive strategy, letting you attack. Let me see how you attack. What¡¯s the result? Bayern Munich started to pass, and started to pass, from left to right, from right to left, and kept passing, but they were all back passes and cross passes, and there was no way to pass the deep and threatening ball. It should be said that Bayern Munich's only more threatening offensive pattern is the right wing. Robben takes the ball and cuts inside, and the right back inserts himself into the cover. Coupled with the presence of an attacking midfielder, Bayern Munich's right wing offense is in trouble. Teams whose defensive formations are not rigorous enough or whose frontline coverage of the penalty area is not strong often take advantage. But Tottenham Hotspur shrunk their overall formation after the start. Even if Tottenham Hotspur only adopted a defensive posture because of the away game, Bayern Munich had no way at all, because as soon as the right wing was restricted, they There is no way to resist. Therefore, after losing the ball, Bayern Munich wanted to counterattack, but they did not dare to press easily on the right. Instead, they relied on Robben to fight alone in front, and Rafinha was asked not to press so hard. Go up, so Bayern Munich's offense is greatly reduced. Tottenham Hotspur were not in a hurry. Ye Qiu did not ask the team to retreat this time, but asked them to press forward and fight against each other. So an interesting phenomenon appeared on the scene. When the ball reached Bayern Munich's feet, the rhythm slowed down, but once the ball was intercepted by Tottenham Hotspur, the rhythm immediately sped up. "We have to admire that Tottenham Hotspur's players can always find quick routes and connecting points for the ball on the court, so their kicks are very skillful and very fast" The commentator's praise is not exaggerated, because on several occasions Tottenham Hotspur used concise and direct two or three kicks to pass the ball directly to Bayern Munich's half, even thirty meters area. Just like this time, it was another three-legged pass. Ramsey passed the ball diagonally from the center line to the left. Ribery stopped the ball on the left and moved forward, accelerating to catch up. This time, both Rafinha and Ram were Running after Ribery. In the penalty area, Lewandowski rushed to the right corner of the small penalty area alone, Vidal had already rushed to the top of the penalty area, and Ramsey was also rushing forward quickly, which made Bayern Munich's entire defense Attention falls on the front and middle points. Ribery was one-on-one on the left, but he showed no fear. Facing Rafinha, the French scarface accelerated and sprinted, stopped suddenly, and then accelerated again. He continuously changed speed and finally earned money from the Brazilian full-back. After reaching some gaps, he pulled out half his body and made a cross with his left foot. I don¡¯t know if this pass was intentional or if the intensity was not accurate. In short, it did not land in the front or middle of the penalty area. Dante took off and jumped, but still failed to get the ball. When Messi and Alaba were on the right side of the small penalty area, they saw Messi blocking his position first and stopping Ribery's cross with his chest. Moreover, he stopped in front of him on the right sideline of the small penalty area. In the area, he quickly caught up and hit a very difficult arc shot with his left foot. I heard a bang, and the ball drew a weird arc and shot toward the goal. Even Messi didn't know if he could suppress the ball and hit the target accurately.
