Chapter 744: Dude, I want to rush!

Bang~bang~bang~
When the two players stepped out of the player channel one after another, there were vibrating drums all around, followed by thunderous cheers!
Do you think this is the Allianz Arena?
Wrong, this is Southampton's Glory Square!
Glory Plaza is the artificial island where Southampton’s new stadium is located.
In order to welcome the first round of the Champions League semi-final match, the club will broadcast the game live on the large advertising screen on the outer wall of the Glory Stadium, so that all interested fans will gather in Glory Plaza to watch this game together. game.
On this day, all the shops in Glory Plaza opened grandly!
Especially the Saint Harry's Bar, after a non-stop rush to work, was completed the day before and officially moved to Glory Plaza.
Not only that, the brands in Glory Plaza, including Heineken, Karon Family, Cadbury, Pepsi, etc., all opened together on this day and carried out a huge promotional activity.
Therefore, this night, the Glory Square was full of people.
Thousands of fans gathered in front of four large screens surrounding the stadium.
Wearing saints jerseys and bringing a variety of fan props, they gathered here to cheer for the saints in Munich, Germany!
Although no official statistics have been made, at this moment, Glory Plaza has attracted at least more than 50,000 people.
Therefore, when the players of the two teams walked out of the player channel on live TV, the entire Glory Plaza looked like a volcano spewing out, creating a momentum that could move the entire city.
"We have now got the starting lineup of the two teams."
"Bayern Munich's starting goalkeeper is Thomas Kraft, this is Bayern Munich's youth training player."
"The defensive lines are Contento, Boateng, Dante and Rafinha, the three midfielders are Schweinsteiger, Thiago and Lahm, and the trident in the front is Ribery. , Thomas Muller and Robben."
"This lineup can be regarded as Bayern Munich's strongest lineup this season. The staff is very complete."
"Southampton is also strong and strong."
"The goalkeeper is Neuer. This German goalkeeper once approached Bayern Munich in 2011, but was cut off by Southampton halfway through. This angered the Bayern Munich executives, but it also contributed to The top position of the youth teenager Kraft."
"However, in recent seasons, Kraft's performance has not been satisfactory, so Bayern Munich's pursuit of Neuer is still very enthusiastic, but Neuer, as the captain of the Saints, has always been on the Saints defense line. Dinghai Shenzhen."
"On the back line, David Alaba also came from Bayern Munich’s youth academy, but he didn’t get a chance and moved to Southampton. The two central defenders are a combination of Harvey Martinez and Varane. The right back is Azpilicueta."
"The Southampton midfielder still adopts a double midfielder configuration, a combination of Tony Cross and Modric."
"The three offensive players in the front court are Hazard, Suarez and Sanchez, and the center player is Ibrahimovic!"
"Interestingly, when Ibrahimovic switched from Barcelona to Southampton, he had a very difficult relationship with the then Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola, and this is the first time the Swedish center reunited after leaving Barcelona. Guardiola, so before the game, the Swedish center said that he would definitely prove it to Guardiola with a goal!"
"The players of the two teams are entangled with each other, and it is the crucial Champions League semi-final, so the smell of gunpowder on both sides before the game is very heavy."
"The referee in this game is Pedro Proenza from Portugal."
When the players of the two teams lined up in front of the player channel, the camera scanned the players of the two teams and the referee group one by one from front to back, and then came a big panorama.
At the same time, the shots were also given to the coaches of the two teams on the sidelines, Guardiola and Bielsa.
"We saw that Guardiola took the initiative to shake hands with Bielsa. It is said that before Guardiola coached, he went to Argentina to ask Bielsa for advice. Many of Guardiola's tactical concepts are also Born in Bielsa."
"So, in the eyes of many people, this will be a duel between the master and the apprentice!"
The camera went up again and fell to the chairman stand of the Allianz Arena.
"We can also see that the top management of the two teams attached great importance to this game!"
"This is the interim chairman of Bayern Munich, as well as the chairman of Adidas Herbert Heiner. Heiner assumed the position of interim chairman after he resigned from all positions in Bayern Munich due to the tax turmoil at the beginning of the year."
"This is Rummenigge, the CEO of Bayern Munich, and we can also see that Bayern Munich's honorary chairman Beckenbauer also appeared in the chairman's stand."
"Sitting next to them is the Southampton boss, Yang Huan from China. This is also a figure in the European football scene in recent years. In just four years, he has brought out a strong Southampton team. Called a miracle!"
"Next to Yang Huan are Saint's Executive Chairman Nicolas Cortez, CEO Peter Kenyon, and Chief Operating Officer Ron Gurley. It can be described as a gathering of high-level executives!"
"We also have every reason to believe that this will be a wonderful showdown!"
When the TV commentator said this, there was a crisp whistle.
With the whistle of the referee Pedro Proenza, the game officially kicked off!
There was a burst of thunderous cheers in the entire Glory Plaza. Almost all the Saints fans were cheering and supporting the team thousands of miles away!
…………
…………
Yang Huan frowned from the first minute of the game.
Because he found that Southampton’s tactics were a bit strange today.
The starting lineup is weird, why use Suarez?
You know, in many games this season, Bielsa started with Suarez and Ibrahimović at the same time, all of which arranged for the Uruguayan to play the wing, and the center was basically James Rodriguez.
Even in some Champions League matches, Bielsa used Kaka in the front midfielder.
But in this game, Kaka and James Rodriguez did not play. Instead, Suarez played the front midfield and cruised behind Ibrahimovic, which is quite surprising.
What is even more depressing is that Bielsa's team has been shrinking defense from the beginning.
This is not Bielsa's style at all!
You know, the most interesting thing about the Argentine lunatic is his desperate offense.
But now, play defense as soon as you come?
Doesn't this become Mourinho?
Southampton's shrinking defense allowed possession of the ball.
But when Beckenbauer sitting next to Yang Huan saw this situation, he seemed to frown deeper than Yang Huan, and he sighed and said, "This game is difficult!"
"Yes, I didn't expect that even Bielsa has become so pragmatic!" Rummenigge also smiled helplessly.
Yang Huan wants to say that he can watch football, but if he compares with people like Beckenbauer and Rummenigge, he is still inferior. At least he has been dealing with football all his life, and he has played 20 or 30 years. Can professional football be the same in 2015?
But from their words, Yang Huan vaguely figured out a point, that is, Bielsa's change made them feel uncomfortable, as if it happened to be stuck in some of their weaknesses.
What makes the opponent uncomfortable is certainly true!
Therefore, Young Master Huan laughed at this moment, and he was in a good mood.
Good pragmatic!
Yaya Gope’s, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​etc., reaching the Champions League semi-finals is as easy as eating, but we are Southampton, and it’s not easy. After more than a hundred years of tossing, we only reached the fourth. Strong opportunities, can you not be pragmatic?
Besides, Bielsa is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very shrewd.
He has been reflecting since Argentina suffered a humiliating Waterloo in the World Cup in Korea and Japan.
After coming to Southampton, he came into contact with the first-tier European competitions, and with the accumulation of experience, he also kept improving.
At least he understands that sometimes professional football has to be pragmatic!
Just ask, is it that the Barcelona Dream Team, which is better than Guardiola, has not been pragmatic?
They desperately brush the ball possession rate, isn't it a kind of pragmatism?
Besides, with Bielsa's personality and character, no matter how pragmatic he is, he will not become Mourinho!
And as the game gradually unfolded, Yang Huan also gradually saw the doorway.
The Saint’s overall tactics are mainly defensive, which is understandable. After all, they are facing such a powerful Bayern Munich as a guest at the Allianz Arena and the first round of the semi-final. Defending is the most reasonable tactic. .
But Bielsa's defense is exquisite.
When Bayern Munich took the ball, Southampton steadily contracted backwards, allowing Bayern Munich to press.
When the ball entered their own half, Ibrahimovic and Suarez withstood Bayern Munich's defense line, the defense is mainly to cut off Bayern Munich's passing route.
Don't you want to control the ball?
Okay, I let you control the ball, and I don’t fight you for the ball. As long as I can hold it, the longer you hold the ball and the more passes, the more likely it is to have problems, and as long as I catch you I will resolutely fight back.
It was at this time that Yang Huan realized why he had to go to Suarez.
In the defense against Bayern Munich's three midfielders, Southampton also treats them differently.
Focus on Ram and Thiago, relax Schweinsteiger.
This is also exquisite.
Guardiola is not satisfied with Schweinsteiger this season, thinking that his playing characteristics are more adventurous, always inclined to advance, and the turnover rate is higher.
Statistics show that Schweinsteiger loses the ball one point per game, which is three times that of Lahm.
Therefore, there was a time when Guardiola used Ram to play single midfielder.
Similarly, the defense against the Trident in Bayern Munich's frontcourt is also very targeted.
Bayern Munich used Thomas Muller to start in the middle, so Bielsa asked Azpilicueta and David Alaba on the two wingers to defend more to prevent Ribery and Robbennete. Let them pass from the bottom.
Because you missed the point in the middle, what's the use of your passing?
No bottom, no cross, go inside?
That's fine, double midfielders Tony Cross and Modric are firmly covering the front of the penalty area.
As long as you go inside, I can at least guarantee that there is a full-back and a midfielder to double-team you.
No matter how strong you Robben and Ribery are, how good they are, how many people can you still bring the ball from the double team?
I am afraid that even Messi can't do it, right?
And if I succeed in double-teaming, once I break the ball, then you are in danger!
Don't tell me~EbookFREE.me~ Less than eight minutes after the opening, Southampton really had a chance.
Since the start of the game, Southampton has been passively beaten. The chances of getting the ball are very few. More often, it is a hastily bigfoot clearance after getting the ball.
On the other hand, Bayern Munich has an overwhelming advantage, constantly infiltrating and harassing Southampton.
But just when Ribery took the ball from the left and wanted to find his teammates inside, Azpilicueta decisively followed the defense, Tony Cross outflanked it, and the two moved at the same time to squeeze Ribery in the middle. .
After successfully stealing the ball, Tony Cross looked up.
The entire Bayern Munich backcourt is a large area of ​​open space.
Suarez has already raised his hands high.
The expression seemed to say, buddy, pass on time, I want to charge!
