Chapter 185 The First Goal!
Bayern Munich players don't know much about Manchester City, their knowledge is limited to the explanation of the head coach Magath and the reports of the German media.
In the eyes of most Bayern players, Manchester City and Bayern are not on the same level.
Bayern's third-tier players are all famous stars, with Podolski and Pizarro in the frontcourt, Van Bommel and Santa Cruz in the midfield, and Lucio, Van Buiten, Lahm and other famous stars in the backcourt. In contrast, Manchester City's frontcourt Anelka, midfielders Morris, Tangning, and Dunn in the backcourt are much worse. Except for the few players mentioned, the rest of Manchester City's players are Young players, these young guys may be the big stars of the future, but that's the future, and they haven't really grown up yet.
However, the pessimism of the German media and the advice of head coach Magath also made Bayern players pay more attention to Manchester City. Another point is that Manchester City was also the Premier League champion last season and has performed well this season, ranking first in the league with the same points as Manchester United. The team is not easy to deal with.
The specific situation of the game is still to be said on the field of competition.
Regarding the importance of individual players in Manchester City, Bayern's players in various positions are not unified in terms of personal ideas. For example, Bayern Munich's defensive players in the backcourt, most of them think that the most threatening player in Manchester City is Nicolas Anelka. , because he is the starting striker of Manchester City and a French star who became famous in 2000. He even had the ability to compete with Henry for the Premier League scorer last season, so Nicola Anelka is a player that must be paid attention to.
Secondly, it might be Tangning's turn. Tangning has played a lot in England, at least more than Morris.
So, it was Maurice's turn next.
As for David Silva and others, they are all young teenagers or little-known players, they are not worth paying attention to, facing their offense. Just normal defense.
Bayern Munich players don't know how dangerous this idea is, and when they defend in this way, the lesson comes quickly.
This is in the 16th minute of the game, after Manchester City kept the ball in midfield for one minute, they suddenly launched a fast break!
After sixteen minutes of play. Bayern Munich also knows a little bit about Manchester City's style of play. It is very similar to the Spanish team. There are a lot of passing coordination and all kinds of brainless. Faced with this style of play, all they need to do is to defend strongly and then look for opportunities to counterattack.
This time they did the same.
When Manchester City frequently moved and passed, Bayern Munich maintained the formation, and then tentatively grabbed the ball to create pressure on Manchester City's passing players. Forcing Manchester City to make more passes. In this way, Manchester City players are likely to panic when passing the ball. As long as there is a mistake, it will be an opportunity for Bayern Munich.
This time, Manchester City used the cooperation of goalkeeper James to control the football very steadily. Bayern Munich failed to find any opportunities. When they were about to retreat, Manchester City suddenly launched a fast break. The central defender Dunn handed the ball to Ivan Crewe, who made a direct mid-range pass. Kicking to David Silva on the wing.
When David Silva got the ball, there were no Bayern Munich players around.
However, Bayern Munich is not in a hurry. One is that David Silva has just crossed the midline, and his position is not much threatened. The other is... He is David Silva, a little-known Spanish boy , it doesn't matter at all, maybe he is a young genius in the eyes of Spanish fans and Manchester City fans, but which player in Bayern Munich was not a genius when he was young?
As a result, this negligence became fatal!
David Silva took the opportunity to adjust the ball and made a steady pass to the right, where Tangning ran to the front to receive the ball, and then passed to a dangerous position in the middle.
Morris!
Hargreaves has been defending Morris. To say that among the Bayern Munich players, the one who knows Morris is Hargreaves, because they are teammates in the England team. Hargreaves knows that before this The little-known Manchester City player is very good in terms of technology, especially the occasional threatening ball he can pass, which can always create a fatal blow for his teammates.
But he never knew that Morris' dribbling ability was so good!
When Morris received the pass, Hargreaves was on his right side. He wanted to stick to Morris and not give him a chance, but he never thought that Morris would suddenly turn the ball to the left and his right foot was on the right side. A little light on the ball, the football is like a good baby. It flew into the air obediently, and just bounced off Hargreaves' right leg, and then Morris charged Hargreaves to the front, Then he used his body to squeeze the back to protect the football.
This series of actions made Hargreaves stunned. When he reacted, he had no chance to grab the ball at all, so he could only follow Morris, shouting to his teammates in German, "Stop him, help !"
Lucio ran over.
He deliberately stopped between Morris and Anelka just now to prevent Morris from suddenly passing the ball into the penalty area, but seeing that Hargreaves was passed, he could only go forward to make up the defense, otherwise it would be too much Dangerous.
Morris has taken the ball to the penalty area line!
Lucio immediately judged that Morris was most likely to score the ball to two flanks, or to find an opportunity to pass directly to Anelka in front, so he came up very slowly, and mainly used his body to block and want to pass forward. The angle of the ball, which shows Lucio's incomparable experience, he just wants to force Morris to distribute the ball to the wing, so that the danger of the goal is lifted, regardless of whether the pass is accurate or not, Manchester City. Looking for a chance to come again.
When Lucio was about to come up, Morris still didn't pass the ball.
Lucio was overjoyed, as long as he went over, he would be able to double-team Morris with Hargreaves, but at this moment, Morris suddenly rushed forward, his speed In fact, it was not fast, but Lucio was coming towards him, and he was immediately nervous to stop him directly.
At this moment, Maurice's body was short, as if he was going to make a forward move.
The distance between Lucio and Maurice got a little closer. He accelerated to stop Maurice directly, but Maurice didn't continue to dribble the ball. Instead, he swung his right foot.
That action is almost a shot!
Even the commentator of Sky Sports shouted, "Morris, shoot!" This obviously deceived Lucio. Although the threat of shooting at the front of the penalty area is not big, it is quite dangerous, so Seeing that Morris was going to shoot directly, Lucio didn't dare to neglect, he flew out and blocked it with his legs at the same time. He also planned to use his body to block the angle of the shot.
Not to mention Lucio, Morris's movements were so realistic that even the camera was shaken, and the TV screen was followed by a swipe, chasing the goal towards the Bayern Munich goal, but in front of the goal, in addition to almost making a save Kahn of action, nothing else.
So... football! ? ?
The TV camera soon transferred, and people realized that the football was still at Morris's feet. He dunked the ball gently to the left, and then flicked the football with the tip of his left foot, dribbling it horizontally and shaking it away. Lucio rushed out!
"Hula..."
The voice of the Allianz Stadium followed to a higher level, and Bayern fans were worried about their own goal.
At this time, there is another player who came and defended, and that is the central defender Daniel Van Buiten. He is a famous Belgian football player. In the summer, he transferred from Hamburg to Bayern Munich for 10.5 million euros. Magath expects him and Lucio to form a double central defender combination to stabilize Bayern Munich's defense. When Morris dribbled the ball to break through Lucio, Van Buiten was defending Anelka. When he saw Lucio guarding Morris, he thought there was no problem. Lucio is the backbone of Brazil's defense and has the ability to Widely recognized, but unexpectedly, Lucio was deceived, so Van Buiten had to give up his defense against Anelka and rushed over to cover Morris.
Morris raised his left foot slightly in the face of Van Buiten, and almost everyone thought that Morris was going to pass the ball.
There is only one left-sided Lahm around Anelka, and it is difficult for him to stop Anelka from getting the ball. Anelka also adjusts his lower position backwards to prevent him from being in an offside position, as does Van Buiten. At the moment Morris raised his foot, he acted like a switch was pressed, and he directly raised his leg to block the ball, in preparation to block Morris's pass to Anelka.
Unfortunately, it's still a fake!
Morris dunked the ball with his left foot, and after fooling Lucio, he took a step forward, and this time he was completely facing the goal.
Lucio followed, he was about to come over from Morris' right side, and Hargreaves chased after him, wanting to do something from behind, Morris was almost sandwiched between three people, but he Running forward, he has already faced Bayern goalkeeper Kahn.
With the running rhythm, Morris waved his right foot again!
"It's a shot this time!"
Sky Sports' Champions League commentator Lyle Statham roared, "Shoot--" At the same time, Kahn also rushed out of the goal, his arms raised to the sides like a big peng spreading his wings. With a roar, he slammed his feet on the ground and rushed over.
He wants to block Morris's shot angle as far as possible.
Often when Kahn does this, the opponent's forward will be very flustered, especially his iconic roar, which can shock the opponent's heart, but this time when he jumped up and made a ball throw, he immediately regretted it. , because he saw the Manchester City midfielder in front of him, and did not choose to shoot directly, but gently pushed the ball to one side.
The football rolls sideways.
The camera rolls in the direction of the football, and there is Anelka who is ready to lift his foot to shoot.
"Bang!"
After a muffled sound, the football turned and flew directly to the goal!
Kahn wanted to intercept, but now he can't do anything, the only thing he can do is turn his head and watch the football go into the net when he pounces on the grass. (To be continued ~^~)
