"No matter what the reason is, we will have one less person in the second half, so we need to adjust our tactics. First of all, defense is a must. There is no doubt that our defense is very solid, but Bayern's offense is very strong, whether it is in the air or on the ground.
Both inside and outside the penalty area, so we need to concentrate on the game. However, with one less person, it is difficult for us to really give them no chance at all, so while we are defending, we must be ready to counterattack at any time...
James, Kevin, you two can retreat a little, but don't retreat too far. Rely on your breakthrough and passing to create a threat. Romelu and Luis take turns to retreat to help defend, but no matter what
Every time, there must be someone in the frontcourt, ready to counterattack at any time, do you understand?"
The players nodded one after another. The meaning of Ji Ya's words was very obvious. While defending, you should not give up counterattack. It is useless to defend. On the contrary, you will lose a good situation. If you don't counterattack, then if you want to maintain a draw at home, you will be afraid.
It will all be difficult.
Noriya did not make any other substitutions. Although there are still four players in the frontcourt who are good at attacking, they are not bad at participating in defense. The most important thing is that they are still needed in counterattack.
As for the two full-backs who made bold assists in the first half, they now need to concentrate on defense.
Ji Ya didn't make any substitutions, but Guardiola did.
Before the start of the second half, he replaced Boateng with Rafinha. Martinez returned to the central defender position to partner with Dante. Raphinha served as right back to strengthen the wing attack. Lahm returned to the central defender position.
From the defensive midfielder position, he is responsible for organizing the offense.
At the beginning of the second half, they immediately launched a fierce attack.
This is normal. Under such circumstances, it would be a joke for them not to attack.
Trailing by two goals, they are on the road and have one more player. If they launch an attack at this time, even if they score one goal, they can still take advantage.
This is the characteristic of the twists and turns in the two rounds. When they were leading by two goals, Southampton seemed to have qualified early, but after just one penalty, the situation changed dramatically!
Bayern began to attack almost unscrupulously, while Southampton could only recover its defense.
If Bayern's offense in the first half was suppressed by Southampton as a whole, and Southampton fans did not feel the power of last season's Triple Crown, then at this time they really began to feel the power of a top team.
The level of the team.
Robben forced a breakthrough from the wing and won a set kick. Kroos drove the ball into the penalty area. Mandzukic grabbed the first spot, but due to the interference of Wundt, he headed the ball high.
A few minutes later, Gotze's cross from the wing hit Klein and flew out of the baseline. Kroos took a corner kick. Mandzukic once again grabbed the first shot, but this time he was also interfered by Lukaku who was returning to defense.
Top high.
"Concentrate on playing high center? Impossible, just to distract our defensive attention..." Ji Ya thought in his heart.
Then he made a gesture to the field, asking them to continue to focus on Robben's ball.
Robben is the core of Bayern. Even if Guardiola tries to downplay this after taking office, it is still difficult to downplay it because Robben's strength and characteristics are indeed the core of Bayern.
This is especially true when Franck Ribery is not on the court now.
Sure enough, Bayern's offense soon began to focus on Robben's feet.
Gotze ran to the center to get the ball, and then passed it to Robben on the right. Robben dribbled the ball inside and hit a beautiful curve ball with his left foot despite the interference of Luke Shaw!
The ball flew towards the goal. Gulacchi made the first reaction, fell sideways to stop the ball, and then quickly pressed the ball under him again.
"Peter performed really well, but he wasn't so steady when he first came here." Ji Ya couldn't help but say.
"After all, he hadn't played for a long time at that time...and the level of goalkeeper training should be higher," Benali replied.
Ji Ya nodded. Indeed, even if Liverpool is also a strong team in the Premier League, they don't have any particularly outstanding abilities in training goalkeepers. Southampton's goalkeeper training plan was redeemed by Ji Ya from the Achievement Point Store, and
It also costs achievement points to update and upgrade every year, so it must be the best training plan in the world. Under such circumstances, it is normal for Gulacchi to still be making progress at the age of twenty-three.
The goalkeeper is a late bloomer. With the improvement of experience and continuous training of reactions, movements and saves, goalkeepers can always maintain good condition and even continuously improve.
Now it seems that Gulacchi's talent is quite good. Even with a little experience accumulated at Southampton and good training, he has still made rapid progress.
A few minutes later, Robben repeated his old trick by cutting in from the right and then shooting with a curve ball. The quality of this shot was still very high, but Gulacchi, who was used to shooting like this, also moved quickly with his feet and then flew over.
The ball was pressed beneath him.
Two consecutive successful saves, plus the penalty kick saved in the first half, made the Southampton fans completely relieved. They cheered loudly and cheered for Gulacchi.
"Looking at Gulacchi's current performance, even if Navas cannot play in the second round, Southampton seems to have nothing to worry about! In other words, Navas should be more worrying, not Southampton..." Commentator
The member laughed and said.
Indeed, it is not uncommon for a substitute goalkeeper to be called upon at a critical moment and then perform well. Generally speaking, the substitute goalkeeper will then take over and occupy the main position with a series of outstanding performances...
This kind of competition is actually what the club wants to see. Whoever is better will of course be more worthy of being the main goalkeeper.
But soon, after an attack, it was proved that Bayern is still very sophisticated, and at the same time, whether it is Southampton, Ji Ya or Gulacchi, they all look a little younger...
Ten minutes into the second half, Kroos picked up the ball in the midfield. At this time, Lahm switched positions to the wing and began to advance forward. Kroos immediately gave the ball to Lahm. When Lahm received the ball, Robben began to run horizontally.
The move attracted Luke Shaw's attention, but Lahm did not pass the ball to Robben, but chose to cut inside himself!
This caught Luke Shaw off guard. Ram successfully cut into the penalty area and then approached the bottom line.
Luke Shaw began to defend desperately, and Southampton's entire defense also recovered. At this moment, Lahm passed the ball back to the top of the penalty area. Cross took the ball at that position, and then resolutely took the shot.
!
The quality of this mid-range shot was quite high. Gulacchi, who had just been defending Ram's cut shot or pass, just turned around and the ball flew into the penalty area. Although he made a save, he still
A step too late, the ball quickly flew into the upper right corner of the goal!
