Chapter 211 We will become the new Bundesliga champions!
Chapter 211 We will become the new Bundesliga champions!
In mid-week, Pan Yi appeared at the Allianz Arena with Nagelsmann and Inzaghi.
What will be played here tonight is the Champions League quarter-finals, Bayern Munich's home game against Juventus.
These are two "old acquaintances" of Pan Yi. Pan Yi is quite familiar with the head coaches and players of these two teams.
This is also the battle between the No. 1 team in the Bundesliga and the No. 1 team in Serie A this season.
Although not as terrifying as Bayern's dominance in the Bundesliga, Juventus still ranks first in Serie A with 62 points.
Although AC Milan, which lost Pan Yi, adjusted to a certain level in the middle of the league, it can only rank third with 51 points, 11 points behind Juventa, and basically misses the chance to win the championship this season.
Even in front of Milan, there is a Napoli team with 53 points...
Pan Yi brought the coaching staff to watch the game today, just to see what changes Bayern will have in recent games, and to try to find out the opponent's latest weaknesses and weaknesses, and then take advantage of them.
The game will start soon, and Pan Yi also saw the starting lineups of both sides.
By the way, where is the striker Pato that Milan sold to them?
He didn't sit on the bench either.
Due to his poor performance last season, he has gradually lost Conte's trust.
In the first half of the season, Pato came on as a substitute in garbage time most of the time, which also intensified the conflict between him and Conte.
After the winter window opened in January 2013, Juventus sold Pato to the Brazilian team Corinthians for 15 million euros, and the two parties signed a four-year contract.
Huh? Why is it Corinthians again?
Maybe they had to raise money to buy Pato, so they didn't have the money to buy out Paulinho, and finally Paulinho was lured to Hamburg by Pan Yi...
I didn't expect that Pan Yi's big move last year could still affect him in the form of positive feedback today. It was indeed a piece of cake that was like a snake's gray line, but the pulse was thousands of miles away!
Back to this game.
As for Bayern, Pan Yi was slightly surprised by Heynckes' lineup.
Forward: Mandzukic
Frontcourt: Ribery, Kroos, Muller.
Midfielder: Schweinsteiger, Gustavo.
Defenders: Alaba, Dante, Van Buyten, Lahm.
Goalkeeper: Neuer.
It’s actually not Bayern’s strongest main lineup!
Rotated at least three or four positions.
This shows that Heynckes does not even take Juventus completely into his eyes, but is keeping some efforts.
So, why is he saving his energy?
I just want to fuck Pan Yi!
The coach lost to Hamburg in the first half of the season. That game has always been in the memory of the coach and it was very uncomfortable.
Counting the loss to Milan in the Champions League final last season, Heynckes has lost to Pan Yi twice in a row.
He just wants revenge!
Therefore, he did not even play the main lineup in this crucial Champions League knockout match, but was preparing to give Pan Yi a good showdown on the weekend!
This also made Pan Yi feel a little pressured, and at the same time he felt a little flattered.
"This old man is quite interesting." Pan Yi thought silently, "Aren't you afraid of being bitten by Juventus and losing your troops after accompanying your wife?"
…
But the facts proved that Pan Yi's idea was unnecessary, and Eunuch Hai was well aware of his reservations.
Even if Bayern makes a rotation, his lineup can sweep Europe!
They launched a fierce attack from the beginning and even scored in the first minute!
Only 25 seconds into the game, Bastian Schweinsteiger crossed Alaba from the middle. The Austrian youngster caught the ball from about 25 meters away and shot. The ball hit Vidal's foot and changed direction slightly, then bounced in front of Buffon and went into the blind corner.
, Bayern leads 1-0.
In the following games, Bayern also took advantage of the field.
Although Kroos left the field due to injury in the 16th minute, Bayern played more comfortably after replacing Robben.
On the other hand, Juventus played a bit timidly and their rhythm was completely disrupted by their opponents. Fortunately, Buffon played steadily and allowed Bayern to enter the second half with only a 1-goal lead.
In the second half of the game, there was no change in the situation of Bayern attacking and Juventus defending.
Although Conte successively replaced Giovinco, Vucinic, Pogba and others in an attempt to strengthen the offense, it was to no avail.
In the 63rd minute, Gustavo shot a cold shot from the center, but Buffon, who had always performed well, threw the ball away. Mandzukic, who was ambushing in front of the goal, got the ball and made a calm cross. Muller outflanked the center and succeeded in the empty goal. Bayern 2-0.
In the end, Bayern defeated Juventus 2-0 at home and won the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.
Pan Yi looked at it from the stands and shook his head.
On the one hand, he lamented that Juventus did not play well this time. It is estimated that Conte did not unify the players' thinking before the game, which resulted in their overall playing being a bit chaotic.
Throughout the game, they were almost completely overwhelmed by Bayern, which Pan Yi did not expect.
Although it was an away game, the Serie A leader was overwhelmed by Bayern and was unable to fight back.
On the other hand, it reflects that this Bayern team is really too powerful!
There were almost no flaws in the entire game, nor did Juventus have any threatening shooting opportunities.
After watching the entire game, Pan Yi couldn't think of any good way to restrain the current Bayern team.
They haven't even landed Javi Martinez and Jerome Boateng yet.
With the two of them, Bayern's defense and ball-playing abilities in the midfield and backfield will be even better.
Pan Yi turned to Inzaghi and Nagelsmann. The two assistant coaches also looked at each other in confusion and could not make any good suggestions.
"NND, it seems that we can only try the prescribed medicine and try the tactics we used against them last time to see if we can break their midfield operation..." Pan Yi thought while rubbing his nose.
…
weekend.
Allianz Arena.
In the 27th round of the Bundesliga, Hamburg challenged Bayern Munich away.
As the number one dark horse in the Bundesliga this season, second-ranked Hamburg is of course more favored by neutral fans. Everyone expects them to be able to stop Bayern's winning streak in such a strong dialogue.
Pan Yi has indeed arranged his strongest lineup.
He just wanted to see how far behind his Hamburg team was compared to the strongest team in Europe and the world.
This can even provide some guidance for his recruitment next season.
And coach Heynckes, who is determined to take revenge, also plays with the strongest lineup. Javi Martinez, Jerome Boateng, and Robben who were hidden in the Champions League also all started!
In fact, Pan Yi can really understand Heynckes' behavior.
This veteran coach is preparing to retire at the end of this season!
If he cannot defeat Pan Yi, it will become a lifelong regret in his coaching career - of course, as for his subsequent comeback to put out the fire for Bayern, that is another matter.
After the game started, Bayern players sacrificed their lives and launched a fierce attack on Hamburg's position amidst the cheers of 70,000 fans at the Allianz Arena.
The coach wants revenge, and so do the players!
In other words, the players wanted their coach to leave no regrets before retiring, which fueled their strong fighting spirit and boosted their combat effectiveness in this game.
The Hamburg players strictly implemented Pan Yi's instructions before the game, setting up a tight defensive line in front of the midfield line and trying to cut off the connection between Bayern's double midfielders and the wingers.
But Heynckes was obviously well prepared this time.
He asked Robben and Ribery to cross and change positions frequently, and sometimes the wingers and full-backs would also change positions. Alaba and Lahm often appeared on the offensive line.
This left Hamburg players a bit at a loss, and loopholes began to appear defensively.
In the 24th minute, Alaba passed back from the left, and Robben dribbled the ball from the left into the penalty area and volleyed into the far corner of the goal. Bayern led 1:0.
In the 38th minute, Harvey Martinez made a long pass. Robben cut into the penalty area from the right and passed the cross. Mandzukic in the middle squeezed Kjaer's defense and pushed the goal. Bayern led 2:0!
Although Hamburg scored a lightning goal from Son Heung-min shortly after the kick-off shortly after the start of the second half, it did not help.
Bayern still firmly controls the initiative on the field.
In the 73rd minute, Ribery passed the ball in front of the penalty area, Muller made a selfless cross, and Robben pushed the ball into the goal. 3:1, Bayern secured the victory.
Faced with Bayern's absolute strength, despite all of Pan Yi's efforts before the game, he was ultimately unable to change the situation.
At the end of the game, thanks to Robben's brace, Bayern defeated Hamburg at home, handing Hamburg their third defeat of the season and also giving themselves ten consecutive league wins.
At the same time, this is also the end of Hamburg's 19-match unbeaten streak in the Bundesliga this season.
The 2-goal defeat was also the biggest defeat since Pan Yi coached Hamburg.
These records actually reflect from the side how outstanding Hamburg’s performance is this season!
They just lost to a better team, a strong team that can go down in football history.
Facing Bayern at the Allianz Arena, they have done well!
"Come on, raise your head, don't be downcast!"
In the locker room, Pan Yi cheered on the players who came in one by one.
"It's okay, just relax!"
"It's nothing to lose a game, you guys performed very well!"
"Come on, give me a smile..."
Of course Hamburg's players knew that losing to Bayern on the road was not a huge deal, but they just felt uncomfortable.
No one likes to lose, not to mention they haven't tasted losing for almost half a year!
Some players also have illusions in this game. For example, if they really beat Bayern, will they still have a chance to compete for the Bundesliga championship...
But now, everything is gone.
The gap in strength between the two sides lies there.
The victory in the first round was really just an upset.
This made everyone feel very depressed.
But the head coach doesn’t seem to feel uncomfortable at all…
"This time, if you lose, you lose. Really. There is no shame in losing to such a strong team." When everyone entered the locker room, Pan Yi first started to let the players relax.
"Which team has never lost? Is there any? Even AC Milan or Arsenal, who were invincible before, will eventually lose."
"So it's normal for us to lose. What we have to do is to calm down immediately, sum up the experience and lessons from the game, and put our energy into the next game!"
Seeing that the players' emotions had calmed down a little, Pan Yi changed his tone and began to say:
"I don't mean to bow to Bayern when I say this. We will lose and they will lose too."
"We have defeated them before, and today they took revenge. Then, next time, it will be us who come to take revenge!"
"To truly defeat them and convince them of their defeat, we need to perform better in future training and competitions!"
"A sage named Lu from our Dragon Kingdom once said that only those who can withstand failure are qualified to embrace success!"
"We cannot be defeated by such a failure. Are you the ones who give up easily?!"
In the locker room, all Hamburg players stood up in unison, raised their heads, looked at their head coach and shouted:
"No! We will not admit defeat!"
Pan Yi smiled with satisfaction, then clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth:
"Then, please remember the failure here today."
"We will come back here next season and give this loss back to them!"
"at the same time……"
Pan Yi prolonged his voice and finally shouted:
"We will also take the salad plate from their hands and become the new Bundesliga champions!"
All the players at the scene, including the coaching staff behind Pan Yi, felt Pan Yi's strong determination, and everyone roared along:
"Bundesliga Champions!"
"Bundesliga Champions!"
"champion!……"
…
The next morning, all kinds of bickering started again in major German media and newspapers.
Obviously, Hamburg's loss made some reporters who had shut their mouths of doubt become active again.
A lot of media are like this. If you win, they will praise you; if you lose, they will turn against you and step on you harder than anyone else.
In addition, Pan Yi is a coach from the Dragon Country after all. For such a person from a weak football country to be able to dominate a traditional strong country like Germany, it will definitely make some people feel uncomfortable.
So as soon as Pan Yi lost, these people appeared, especially the local newspapers in Munich.
They quoted Pan Yi's statement at the post-match press conference:
"We lost to the strongest team in Germany and even the strongest team in Europe. We lost heartily. I don't think there is anything to be ashamed of."
"I will not look for any excuses for this defeat, nor do I want to find any reasons. If we lose, we lose. Our opponent is stronger than us and performed better than us. That's it."
"I am very grateful to Heynckes and his Bayern. They allowed me to see the strength gap between Hamburg and the strongest teams in European football today, and also to see our own weaknesses and shortcomings."
"This game has given us a lot of valuable experience and lessons. We will sum up and strive to make progress, so that one day we can really beat Bayern..."
"Süddeutsche Zeitung" believes that this shows that Pan Yi has been completely frightened by Bayern. He has also realized the huge gap between Hamburg and Bayern. From now on, he should not think about competing with a truly strong team like Bayern.
"Munich Mercury" also pointed out that after this battle, Pan Yi and his supporters should know who is the boss of the Bundesliga and can put away their endless flattery!
But more media outlets fought back.
"Bild" said that what they saw was Pan Yi accepting his failure calmly and expressing his determination to challenge Bayern in the future.
This is a rare mentality for a young coach and a young team.
Don’t be arrogant when you win, don’t be discouraged when you lose, and dare to challenge the strong. These are the qualities that all successful people must have.
The "Hamburg Morning Post" even wrote that according to a No. 7 player of the Dragon Kingdom who did not want to be named, in the Hamburg locker room after the game, head coach Pan Yi even shouted the slogan of winning the championship next season!
This further shows that Pan Yi's speech at the press conference was just a speech.
His real ambition is to defeat Bayern and take away the championship from this nearly invincible team!
This reflects the fighting spirit of Pan Yi and his Hamburg players who are not afraid of strong enemies and dangers.
Of course, not only many media in Germany are still supporting Pan Yi, but the media in Longguo, thousands of miles away, all speak for Pan Yi!
"Sports Weekly" listed the net worth of all players from Hamburg and Bayern Munich, and finally said that Bayern's total net worth has exceeded 500 million euros. Such an investment beat Hamburg, which has a total net worth of only tens of millions, and is really nothing to be proud of.
What's more, the value of Hamburg players was mostly achieved after Pan Yi led the team, and it was even lower before.
"Football News" said that Bayern Munich actually won one game against Hamburg at home this season, and the total score was 3:3. I really don't know what to be happy about.
Bayern has only conceded 13 goals in 27 games this season, 4 of which came from Hamburg. This also shows how sharp Hamburg's offensive line is under Pan Yi's training.
The fans are even more direct.
This doesn't just refer to Dragon Country fans.
Fans in various Asian countries, including Japan and South Korea, all stood on the same front to support Pan Yi and the Hamburg team he led.
There used to be a saying that "the friendship between China and South Korea depends on Japan, the friendship between China and Japan depends on South Korea, but there is no friendship between Japan and South Korea."
But now there is another sentence, "The friendship between China, Japan and South Korea depends on Pan Yi!"
People in these places speak different languages and post various comments on the Internet, but thousands of words converge into one sentence:
"Get out of here! Pan Yi is the best!"
…
The subsequent Champions League games also seemed to prove that it was indeed normal for Hamburg to lose to Bayern.
In the second round of the quarter-finals, Juventus returned to face Bayern at home, but were beaten 0:2 again, and were ultimately defeated with a total score of 0:4.
The Serie A giants still don't have any chance! The two teams simply don't seem to be competing on the same level.
In the other three knockout games, Real Madrid defeated Galatasaray with a total score of 5:3, and Dortmund passed the test 3:2, defeating Malaga in La Liga.
Of course, there is something even more thrilling, that is the powerful dialogue between Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona.
Paris Saint-Germain drew 2:2 with Barcelona at home in the first leg.
In the second round, Pastore scored to help Paris take the lead, but Pedro equalized the score. In the end, the two sides tied again at 1:1 in the away game.
Barcelona advanced to the semi-finals due to the advantage of more away goals!
In the competition for the semi-finals, the Bundesliga duo will face off against the two Western Premier League hegemons.
Dortmund vs Real Madrid, Bayern Munich vs Barcelona.
…
After 27 rounds of the Bundesliga, Bayern's advantage in the standings has further expanded to 12 points.
With 72 points, they almost had the championship trophy in their arms.
Hamburg, with 60 points, is still in second place, but Dortmund, in third place, has narrowed the point gap to 8 points.
But Pan Yi didn't care very much about this.
Now they are still 12 points ahead of fourth-placed Bayer Leverkusen, as long as they can maintain this advantage.
In the Bundesliga, the top three can directly enter the Champions League group stage next season, while the fourth will go to the play-offs.
So for Pan Yi, the difference between finishing second or third is not big, but he must not fall to fourth.
If we really go to the play-offs, it will still have some impact on Hamburg's pre-season preparations for next season, and there is also the risk of overturning and not making it to the group stage.
If we really fail to make it to the group stage, the loss will be huge.
Not to mention not being able to play in the Champions League, there will be less free money, the transfer budget will inevitably decrease, and the attraction to well-known players will also decrease...
It's just that there are only seven games left in the league, but there is still a 12-point advantage. In theory, it shouldn't be a big problem.
But in any case, Hamburg's direct competitors have now become Dortmund and Leverkusen.
In fact, the Champions League seats in the Bundesliga this season are basically these four.
Because Schalke 04, who is ranked fifth, only has 42 points at this time, the gap is even greater!
…
On April 7, Hamburg faced Freiburg at home.
Freiburg drew with Hamburg for the first time and are currently ranked eighth in the Bundesliga. Their strength cannot be underestimated.
But at the People's Park Stadium, under Pan Yi's careful training, Hamburg, which quickly recovered from the shadow of defeat to Bayern, suppressed Freiburg from the beginning, pressing and pressing from the high position, and suppressed the opponent completely.
temper.
In the 19th minute, Vardy opened the scoring for Hamburg.
After receiving a direct pass from De Bruyne from the center, Vardy stepped in on the left side of the penalty area to prevent offside. Facing the attacking goalkeeper, Vardy shot a low shot into the far corner with his right foot. 1:0!
One minute later, Vardy scored twice.
This time it was Wu Lei who sent the direct pass, and Vardy broke into the left side of the penalty area again.
This time, Vardy chose to shoot the near corner with his left foot. In almost the same position, Vardy used a completely different way to complete the goal, 2:0!
In the 40th minute, Vardy returned the favor and provided an assist for Wu Lei.
Vardy sent a direct pass from the center, and the Dragon Kingdom winger easily scored offside on the right side of the penalty area.
Hamburg led by a big score of 3:0 at halftime!
The outcome of the game also lost suspense early on.
In the second half, Wu Lei also scored twice!
Paulinho faked a shot and passed the ball from the center. Wu Lei once again completed the anti-offside game in front of the small penalty area. He very calmly pushed the ball with his right foot and sent the ball into the far corner.
In the end, Hamburg defeated Freiburg 4-0 at home!
Such a big victory also boosted the morale of Hamburg!
