Chapter two hundred and ninety fourth turning point(1/2)
Bayern Munich made quite careful preparations before the game, and they did regard Hoffenheim as a very dangerous opponent.
The game went so smoothly that they didn't expect it. Not every team could calculate that they could score goals in three minutes of the game.
They did feel comfortable playing for the past forty-five minutes.
As the halftime break ended and the players walked onto the court one after another, Ribery was chatting with Robben.
"Be careful, Frank." Robben reminded.
Ribery shrugged: "I know. I don't want to miss the finals anymore. If I miss the finals for two consecutive times, I'm really bad!"
Robben laughed.
Sometimes he wonders if Ribery played in the Champions League final last year, whether they would still lose to Inter Milan.
Of course, there is no if in the football world. After the game, it is a very amateur behavior to say what will happen if this happens or that.
He just felt that if Frank and his health were fine this time, he would not be able to get the trophy back if he reached the final. By then, no matter whether he was facing Barcelona or Real Madrid, he would kill them!
When the two were about to reach the sidelines, Chu Zhongtian ran up from behind. He patted Ribery on the shoulder and said to his friend: "Be careful in the second half, Frank."
Ribery grimaced at him: "It's you who should be careful, Chu! It seems that we are the ones who are going to Wembley this time!"
Chu Zhongtian smiled and shook his head at him: "See you on the field, Frank!"
Robben looked at Chu Zhongtian's back and said, "He is indeed a dangerous person..."
Ribery curled his lips: "We are in danger, too!"
※※※Hoffenheim fans were worried during the break, and they were worried that the opponent would expand the score gap in the second half. Hoffenheim did not understand in the first half. They hadn't seen Hoffenheim, who was so defeated, hadn't seen Hoffenheim for a long time. It seemed that since Rangnick came to this team, such a thing had never happened again.
Everyone gathered together to discuss and were worried about the team's prospects.
"Fart!" Konilia said disdainfully. This female fan from Hoffenheim is the most loyal fan of Hoffenheim's team, or the people in their entire village are the most loyal fans.
She was very dissatisfied with these people's pessimism.
"Now the team needs our support. If we don't even believe them, then who will believe them?"
"But we are two goals behind now..."
"So what if you're behind two balls? With Chu Zai, everything is possible!"
Ke Nilia keenly trusts Chu Zhongtian because Chu Zhongtian has proved that he can turn the tide in countless games.
"You must trust our captain and believe that he can lead us through the difficulties!" Koniriya said loudly to everyone with her fists.
"The game begins later. We will sing! Sing! Let our voices be heard in the entire Allianz Stadium! Sing to our opponents and to our teams, so that they know that we support them!!"
As soon as Koniriya's generous speech ended, players from both sides ran out one after another.
She turned around and shouted at the Hoffenheim players on the court: "Hoffenheim! Come on!!woooooooooooooow!!"
※※※ Chu Zhongtian stood on the court, with his teammates standing around him. Everyone stood in their respective positions and waited for the kickoff. He looked around and looked at the fans on the stage, waving the flags and scarves in their hands.
The fans have not given up, so what reason does the players have to give up?
"Brothers!" he raised his hand and shouted, "Listen!"
Everyone turned their attention to him.
"We must go to Wembley!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the referee's whistle sounded, and the sound of the scene suddenly became louder.
"The second half is about to start!"
※※※Ribery and Robben performed very well in the first half. Bayern Munich's ability to lead two goals has a lot to do with their active wing.
In the second half, they continued to make trouble on the wing.
But soon they found that their wing attack was not that smooth.
Hoffenheim is also looking for opportunities on the wing. Originally, Hoffenheim's wing attack was very sharp, but he didn't perform in the first half. Once they performed normally, Bayern Munich might not be able to get a bargain for the wing.
The resistance Ribery and Robben encountered did not come from Hoffenheim's defensive players, but from offensive players. Because Hoffenheim's wing offensive became active, Ribery and Robben had to undertake more defensive tasks. They could no longer gallop in the frontcourt like they did in the first half, and they would not have to go back to defend if they lost the ball.
The good day is over.
The commentator also found that Hoffenheim's performance in the second half was completely different from the first half.
"Actually, it's enough to see if Hoffenheim is normal. Just look at one person. Chu's performance in the second half obviously improved, so Hoffenheim is also good."
Chu Zhongtian's outstanding performance was mainly reflected in his running and passing. His running was more active, and he was not aimlessly running, but purposeful. In addition, his passing was more decisive and sharper, which was completely different from the first half.
But it is not that Chu Zhongtian performed poorly in the first half, but that Chu Zhongtian received support from his teammates in the second half. His teammates who were sleepwalking in the first half were gradually waking up.
In the 52nd minute, Chu Zhongtian suddenly passed the ball to the side near the central circle, and the football was received by Salihovic. The Bosnia and Herzegovina stopped the football with his chest and then passed it.
Ibisevic, who followed up in the middle, headed the ball, and Butte pushed it out of the crossbar.
Although there was no goal, this offense was the most threatening Hoffenheim's game.
From this point, we can also see that Hoffenheim has returned to normal.
Hoffenheim fans in the stands sang their songs happily to cheer for the team.
"Occurrence! Attack! The blood of the attack will always flow!!"
"We are Hoffenheim! Let you taste our football!!"
※※※How can fans not see what Van Gaal, an experienced coach?
He quickly adjusted his tactics to make the team focus on offense and defense. Anyway, Bayern Munich is now in hand, and as long as he keeps the advantage of these two goals, he will win. With a 2:0 score, the pressure will be much less.
He shouted on the sidelines, allowing the two full-backs to minimize the number of assists forward, and at the same time asked Ribery and Robbendo to participate in the defense. In the middle, Dimoshchuk performed close-knit defense against Chu Zhongtian.
"Bayern Munich defends... The second half has just begun. It seems that Van Gaal is indeed very afraid of Hoffenheim's attack..."
The Hoffenheim fans in the stands stopped doing it, and they kept booing Bayern players: "If you have the ability to come out and fight us to the death!"
"Don't learn to shrink your head, Bayern!"
"You are the symbol of German football! How can you do this!"
The scolding and booing of the visiting fans was soon drowned in the singing of Bayern fans.
※※※ Hoffenheim players did encounter trouble. With Bayern's contraction, their offense resistance was even greater. Chu Zhongtian's direct pass could not be used because Bayern Munich was very familiar with his set. This contraction defense was to prevent his direct pass. Direct pass could not be used. Most of the time, Chu Zhongtian could only pass horizontally or return.
How should I score a goal in such a hungry situation?
Chu Zhongtian is waiting patiently for the opportunity.
In the 63rd minute, Bayern Munich cut off Quaresma's ball and then counterattacked. Ribery passed directly to the other side of the court, and the football fell to Robben's feet.
When Robben stopped the football, Chu Zhongtian was already ahead of him.
The Dutch Pan had no intention of passing the ball. He rushed forward with the football, intending to fight Chu Zhongtian alone.
The two of them have played in the Bundesliga three times and know each other.
Of course, Robben knew that Chu Zhongtian had strong one-on-one defense ability, and Chu Zhongtian also knew that Robben was good at constantly changing lines while running.
However, Chu Zhongtian knew that as long as he stuck in the inside, Robben's threat would be much smaller.
He now put himself in Robben's inside line, making it impossible for him to break through directly and could only lead along the sidelines.
Robben accelerated and rushed forward. If Chu Zhongtian followed, he would stop and change the ball and cut in. If Chu Zhongtian did not follow, he would break through the bottom line and walk into the penalty area in one breath. At the worst, he could get a corner kick.
Chu Zhongtian did not mean to let him go like this, but ran down with him. In terms of speed, Chu Zhongtian was definitely not as good as Robben, but he had an advantage that he chose the position very accurately. As long as you plan to force a breakthrough by speed, you will definitely hit him with a football.
Robben was very clear about this. Therefore, when he saw Chu Zhongtian following him, he gave up the idea of forcing a breakthrough by speed, and suddenly used his right foot to thrust the ball to the left, and at the same time he used his left foot to support his foot, twisted his body, and turned to the inside.
Chu Zhongtian also made an emergency stop while Robben stopped and spiked. Then he turned his body and opened his arms. Robben just ran into the ball with the football!
The ball was lost and the person was overturned.
"Penal!!" Bayern Munich fans in the stands shouted loudly.
But the referee did not whistle. He signaled Robben to get up quickly, then turned around and ran forward. Hoffenheim had already launched a fast attack.
Chu Zhongtian broke the ball and did not look back at Robben, who was lying on the ground in great pain, but directly passed the football forward with a long pass.
Instead of getting up, Robben continued to lie on the ground, holding his ankle and rolling.
Bayern Munich's player signaled to Ibisekic that someone had fallen in their penalty area.
To be honest, Ibisek really didn't want to kick football out, but after thinking about it, he still had to abide by sports ethics... With a 120,000 unwillingness, he kicked the football out.
The football rolled out of the sidelines, and Bayern Munich's team doctor was able to enter the field for treatment.
Because he had a collision with him just now, Chu Zhongtian still turned back to see the situation. Robben fell to the ground and looked painful, and it didn't seem to be pretending... Since he was not pretending, he should still express his apology and friendship, although he did not commit a foul. Chu Zhongtian walked up and bent down and patted Robben on the head. Then he ran away to gather his teammates. He planned to use this time to tell his teammates, tell them not to worry, and tell them what to do.
After examination, the team doctor thought that further treatment was needed on the court, so he came up with a stretcher and carried Robben down.
Hoffenheim fans have been booing, thinking Bayern Munich was deliberately delaying the game.
Robben was treated off the court, and the game on the court started again. Bayern Munich threw the football back to Hoffenheim's players, and Hoffenheim continued to launch an attack.
However, this time they have lost the opportunity to get a fast break. Bayern Munich players have already set up their defense in their half, and Hoffenheim has no time to get into.
The turning point happened after Robben took the field. He only persisted on the court for three minutes before raising his hand and making a substitution gesture!
"Robben asked to be replaced! It seems that when he collided with Chu, he was hit hard! Robben is a very important scoring weapon for Bayern Munich. If he is replaced... Then Bayern Munich's attack will only rely on Ribery and Thomas Muller!"
To be continued...
