Chapter 248 The Bundesliga overlord has changed from now on?

Chapter 248 Will the Bundesliga overlord change its players from now on?

The referee blew his whistle, and the much-anticipated battle between the North and the South officially began!

Bayern kicked off first. Muller kicked the ball to Mandzukic and then ran towards the frontcourt.

But almost at the same time, Hamburg's frontcourt players also quickly pressed forward.

Some of them rushed towards Mandzukic who was holding the ball, some rushed to the wing, and some rushed to midfielder Lahm.

Behind Hamburg's front three, Kanter, De Bruyne, Casemiro and two full-backs also pressed forward.

Van Dijk, on the other hand, quickly got close to the advancing Muller to prevent him from making any moves.

In an instant, Hamburg players filled the entire stadium.

Seeing that Mandzukic could not pass the ball to Muller in front according to the routine discussed before the game, Mandzukic had no choice but to pass the ball back to Lahm.

Ram, who was standing in the defensive midfield position, had just stopped the ball when he heard teammates on both sides shouting at him: "Be careful!"

It turned out that the opponent's center Vardy had already rushed over.

Vardy's speed is very fast, and it feels like if he hesitates for just 0.1 second, he will already be in front of him.

Ram quickly turned around to protect the ball, and then knocked the ball back to the defense.

Vardy immediately rushed past Lahm and headed towards Dante, who was now about to take the ball.

Ram only felt a gust of wind blowing past him, and then Vardy disappeared.

"What's that swishing thing?"

Ram felt vaguely uneasy.

In the preparation meeting before the game, including the key points during training, Guardiola emphasized how to deal with Hamburg's high center Mitrovic.

Including today's starting lineup, they all want to use the defensive ability of Van Buyten and Dante, coupled with the ability of midfielder Lahm to track back and help defend, to jointly suppress Mitrovic's performance.

But what I didn't expect was that the starting center sent by Pan Yi was Vardy.

He didn't stick with the old lineup just because he won in the Super Bowl!

This made many of Guashuai's targeted arrangements before the game go to waste.

Everyone knows that Mitrovic and Vardy have completely different characteristics.

Mitrovic has strong stance ability, plays the ball with his back, and shoots well in the penalty area, but he is not used to playing wide, is slower, and is less aggressive than Vardy when pressing up front.

Vardy is even more unreasonable and doesn't have many rules to follow when playing football.

In this way, Bayern's double central defender, including two full-backs, is likely to become Hamburg's breakthrough point.

As soon as Ram's thoughts came to this, Vardy pounced on Van Buyten one after another.

This is because Dante felt a little panicked when he saw the opponent attacking so fiercely, so he did not dare to stop the ball and directly hit Van Buyten on the side.

At this time, Vardy did not slow down at all. After a change, he changed direction and rushed towards Van Buyten.

Of course, Vardy is not the only one who presses Hamburg's frontcourt.

At the same time, Son Heung-min on the left and Salah on the right also stepped forward to encircle and suppress Bayern's two central defenders.

Van Buyten was afraid of being entangled by them, so he immediately knocked back to goalkeeper Neuer.

Vardy also immediately dropped Van Buyten and rushed towards Neuer.

Neuer made a big kick to kick the ball, and Vardy did not hesitate to intercept it with a flying tackle.

And Neuer deserves to be the strongest goalkeeper in the world. He dunked with his right foot, avoided Vardy's tackle, and then firmly controlled the ball at his feet.

But when he looked up and looked at both sides, he found that there was no good place to release the ball.

Almost all Bayern players have Hamburg players staring at them next to or near them!

And just when Neuer hesitated for a moment, Vardy had already stood up and rushed towards him again!

Neuer didn't dare to be careless this time.

The same move can only be used once against the Saint!

And Vardy is undoubtedly a smart fighter.

Therefore, Neuer could only kick forward with a big kick.

And this ball was grabbed by Casemiro who was standing behind the arc in the center circle.

He lightly headed the ball and handed the ball to Kanter in front of him.

Therefore, Hamburg seized the ball through the team's pressing cooperation after the opening.



This is almost a microcosm of the first ten minutes of the game.

Hamburg's very aggressive positioning, running without hesitation, and effective high-pressure team pressure, it seemed that they were the masters of the Allianz Arena today, and they seemed not to give Bayern any chance to breathe.

As a result, what Bayern is best at, or what Guardiola is best at, is short-pass penetration, which is a bit difficult to play.

Their backcourt players, especially the two full-backs like Raphinha and Contento, are often forced to make long passes under pressure.

The result of the long pass is often the same as Neuer's kick at the beginning, where the landing point is firmly controlled by the Hamburg players.

Even if Mandzukic sometimes succeeds in the top challenge, Hamburg's control of the second goal is better. It seems that there are Hamburg players in every position, so the ball will easily fall into Hamburg's hands, and Hamburg will immediately hold on.

The ball initiates another attack.

All this was seen by Guardiola on the sidelines, but he was not particularly surprised.

After all, the three-sword ax of Hamburg can now be said to be Pan Yi’s well-known trademark.

Although he did make some mistakes in judgment on Pan Yi's starting lineup, he also believed that with the ability of Bayern players, he could still adjust quickly.

After all, he still put Lahm as insurance in the midfielder position. As long as the captain is there, he can make up for the lack of speed in the defense. In this way, Vardy's characteristics may not be fully utilized.

And as long as they survive Hamburg's three blows and the Hamburg players are relieved of their initial anger, then it will be Bayern's moment of performance!



really.

After another five minutes, Hamburg seemed to no longer implement the full-court press strategy at the beginning.

Their pace slowed down slightly.

Then, Hamburg's forward Vardy began to move more to the right, and together with Salah, De Bruyne and Carvajal, they attacked Bayern's left flank guarded by Contento.

Guardiola stood up and walked to the coaching area.

He had obviously seen Hamburg's move before and had plans for it.

This is the strong side overload attack that Pan Yi often uses!

At that time, they used this move to destroy Barcelona's left wing, and now they are doing it again.

It's just that this time it seems that the overload is more intense, there are more people, and the pressure is more fierce, so Contento is really under a lot of pressure.

If you don't respond in time, you may be crushed like Barcelona's Adriano.

So Guardiola began to give his latest instructions:

"The midfielder can support more on the left side! The defense can press forward a little more, don't retreat too far! Especially on the right side, you can attack more and put some pressure on them!"

Guardiola knows that when facing an attack like Hamburg's, simply retreating is not the answer.

With the current ability of Hamburg players, there is always a way to score the ball into the penalty area or even score the goal.

There have been too many cases in the Bundesliga where teams tried to deploy buses to defend against Hamburg but failed.

Guashuai knew that he couldn't defend him, but he didn't want to defend him either.

This is Bayern at the Allianz Arena!

This kind of scene of beating others is what Bayern should do!

So Guardi is now asking his players to try their best to push the opponent out and stay as far away from his penalty area as possible.

At the same time, taking advantage of the fact that Hamburg's attack focused on their right wing and the left wing was relatively empty, Rafinha allowed Raphinha to attack as much as possible.

It is best to create scoring opportunities. Even if there is no shooting opportunity, you can still "surround Wei and save Zhao" to relieve the pressure on Contento's side.

Therefore, when Bayern gets the ball, they will consciously hand it to Rafinha on the right.

After getting the ball, the Brazilian right back quickly moved forward.

But just as he was about to cross the halfway line, he was blocked on the wing by his fellow Brazilian Casemiro.

This guy moves very fast. Wasn't he supporting Hamburg's attack on the other side just now? Now he's here again.

Rafinha didn't have time to think about it, so he tried to pass the ball to Mandzukic who was retreating to support him, and then quickly rushed forward to form a cooperation.

Unexpectedly, Rudiger, who was still behind Mandzukic, suddenly stepped forward and poked the ball, preventing Mandzukic from getting the ball.

Casemiro, who turned back to defend, received the ball first, and before Raphinha, who was on the spot to counterattack, approached, he quickly passed it to Kante on the side.

Raphinha abandoned Casemiro and went straight to Kante, trying to push Hamburg's defense back.

After Kanter stopped the ball, he passed it to De Bruyne on the right.

De Bruyne only glanced ahead and quickly kicked a long pass.

The ball drew an elegant arc from the edge of Hamburg's penalty area, jumped over layers of defenses, and landed behind Bayern's defense.

On the left side of Hamburg's frontcourt, a white figure was sprinting quickly.

That's Vardy!

Why does he appear on the left?

"Oh——" The Bayern players in the entire Allianz Arena couldn't help but exclaimed. Many people had already stood up, staring at the ball and the man who was chasing the ball.

The two stands filled with Hamburg fans suddenly started to boil.

"Vardy!" "Vardy!" "Vardy!" shouts were heard endlessly.

At this time, Rafinha also realized the loophole behind her and began to chase back desperately.

Ram, who was currently on the other side, quickly ran over there.

In Pep Guardiola's offensive system, Rafinha's offense is based on Lahm's defensive support behind him.

In this way, even if the ball is lost during the attack and the full-back has no time to return to defense, Lahm will be there to establish the second line of defense.

But at this time, since Hamburg's overloaded strong-side attack was on Contento's side, Ram also moved there to help defend.

As for Vardy, he didn't know when he had slipped to the other side, which was the large space left by Raphinha after his attack!

At this time, Vardy had already caught the ball and started to cut into the ribs of the penalty area with the ball.

The only thing Bayern can stop Vardy is the deep-lying right center back Van Buyten.

The international player of the Belgian national team saw the path of the ball and fell to the ground decisively to tackle.

Dare to do this in a restricted area, which can be regarded as a bold act for a skilled person.

But his movements were still half a beat too slow.

Vardy turned nimbly and barely avoided Van Buyten's tackle. He changed direction again and inserted diagonally into Bayern's small penalty area.

At this time, the entire Allianz Stadium once again let out waves of exclamations.

Because at this time, Neuer was the only one facing Vardy.

Neuer didn't hesitate at all and pounced directly on Vardy.

Vardy lifts his leg and shoots!

Neuer jumped in!

No, Vardy didn't shoot.

He just faked a shot.

After Neuer pounced on Vardy's "shooting" angle and completely lost the Bayern goalkeeper's focus, Vardy flicked the ball again.

At this time, there was only one goal in front of him.

This can be regarded as Vardy's response to Neuer shaking him away at the beginning.

But last time, Vardy didn't grab the ball and only scooped it up;

But this time, Neuer paid the price by conceding the ball!

Faced with this shooting opportunity that "my grandma could score", Vardy certainly would not miss it.

He pushed lightly with the arch of his foot, and the ball slowly crossed the goal line and rolled into the net.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!"

"Vardy, it's Vardy!!!!!"

"In the 24th minute, Hamburg forward Vardy took the lead in breaking Bayern's goal!..."

The Allianz Arena suddenly fell silent.

The Bayern players on the field were stunned for a moment, while the fans seemed to be short-circuited and unable to make any sound.

The visiting team's Hamburg fans from the stands were shouting and roaring at the top of their lungs!

Vardy also ran over there, opening his arms and enjoying the sounds dedicated to him.

Pan Yi on the sidelines also raised his arms and shouted.

When Vardy dribbled the ball past Van Buyten's tackle, he had already stood up from his seat.

When Vardy passed Neuer again, Pan Yi couldn't help but jump up and celebrate in advance.

He played this game with many preparations.

The first step is full-court pressure, combined with the overload strong side to weak side strategy led by Vardy.

Another back-up plan is to consume Bayern's physical strength and energy, waiting for the six-god equipment to crush the opponent in the later stages.

But I didn't expect that I would score a goal with just one move?

Such a good start certainly made Pan Yi happy.

And when everyone heard the crisp whistle, which meant that the goal was valid, members of Hamburg's coaching staff also rushed out and hugged Pan Yi hard.

They were all yelling, although no one could hear clearly who was shouting or what they were shouting, but it didn't matter anymore.

They were all very excited!

This is the Allianz Arena after all, a place that Bundesliga teams cannot conquer!

Now that Hamburg is ahead, can they not be excited by excitement?

"In the first 24 minutes, Hamburg scored the first goal against Bayern. Are they trying to replicate their victory against Bayern in the Super Cup?"

"Actually, this is quite surprising. After all, half a season has passed since the Super Cup. With the ability of a world-famous coach like Guardiola, hasn't he found a way to crack Hamburg's tactics? Bayern still occupies the home court today.

profit!"

"Even fans who have just watched the Bundesliga this season should not be unfamiliar with Hamburg's tactics of attacking the east and attacking the west. This is Pan Yi's signature! But unexpectedly, Bayern was still caught in the trick. Guardio

I still got hit."

"Although we can see that, perhaps due to the influence of the Champions League group stage in midweek, Hamburg players seem to be in better condition, and the continuous pressing and oppression after the opening is more breathtaking, but Bayern's response does seem a bit clumsy.

.”

"Has Guardiola really studied Pan Yi? Did he really make targeted arrangements for Hamburg's opening press? This is definitely not because he underestimated the enemy. After all, he has already lost to Pan Yi.

. Could it be that he is not suitable for the current Bayern team?"

"Now Bayern concedes a goal first, and the situation against the home team is not good. Can Guardiola quickly come up with any way to deal with the current disadvantage?..."

In the stands.

Loew nodded slightly, thoughtfully: "Pan Yi's tactics have actually been upgraded. Although it is still the old method of suddenly shifting from the strong side to the weak side to hit the opponent behind, this time it is led by forward Vardy.

Did you notice?"

Klinsmann beside him also nodded: "Yes. About 15 minutes or so, it was Vardy who pulled to the right and led Hamburg's fierce attack on the right in the next few minutes. And this series of attacks slowly

Guide Bayern's defensive focus to shift there, and then let Guardiola feel that there is an opportunity on the other side, allowing Rafinha to assist, and this loophole was created."

"Yes, after discovering that Bayern was hit, Vardy began to move to the left again." Loew pointed to the corresponding position on the court. "At this time, he took advantage of De Bruyne's accurate long diagonal pass, directly

It penetrated Bayern's defense."

"It's awesome, it's really awesome." Klinsmann laughed. "I've watched one or two Hamburg games before, but the broadcast footage really doesn't show the whole process of scoring. I watched it live today.

, this Pan Yi is really powerful, even a master tactician like Guardiola has fallen into this trap."

Loew also looked at Klinsmann with a smile: "How about it, can we continue today's bet? Friendly reminder, surrender and lose half."

Klinsmann snorted: "His tactic is based on the almost crazy high-position pressing after the opening. The strong offensive side created in this way has great pressure. But how long can they persist? Their players

Can the whole game run like this? I think Bayern still has a chance to equalize and take the lead."

"Okay, let's continue reading." Loew didn't argue with his old friend. Anyway, it was the other party who invited him to dinner, so why not?



Guardiola does have a headache now.

It's not that he doesn't know the threat of Hamburg's style of play.

It is precisely because of this that he arranged for a more flexible and faster player like Lahm to serve as a defensive midfielder and be responsible for assisting the defense.

But he really didn't expect that today's overload strong side played by Hamburg would be so decisive and sharp. This made Ram have to stay on one side to defend for a long time and had no time to care about anything else.

Then there was a sudden change of pace in Hamburg, Vardy changed sides, and Hamburg's attack direction also quickly changed sides, making it impossible for the Bayern players to keep up.

Throughout the entire process of conceding the ball, Hamburg demonstrated their highly unified tactical thinking, and their players' coordination and movement were also superb.

In the end, De Bruyne's long pass and Vardy's goalkeeper shot were the finishing touches.

So, what should Bayern do now?

Guardiola recalled the Super Cup when Hamburg scored Bayern's goal in the first 15 minutes. He did not make any adjustments at that time. Hamburg quickly scored another goal, which put Bayern into defeat all of a sudden.

No, this must not be the case today!

Therefore, an idea came into Guashuai's head: wait for a while and stabilize before talking.

And this idea is actually a bit embarrassing for both Guardiola and Bayern at home.

After all, Bayern is a Bundesliga giant. How can it be possible for Bayern to play positional defense like a mid-to-lower team, without controlling the ball or making scenes?

No shame!

But in the face of today's breathtaking high-intensity pressure in Hamburg, it seems that this method is more reasonable.

Guardiola also saw from the opening period that Bayern's players were not as good as their opponents in terms of condition and physical fitness today. It was better to avoid their sharp edges first, wait for the opponent's anger to subside, and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack.

Hamburg players will definitely make mistakes by then, and so many Bayern stars are "masters of error correction", such as Muller, such as Ribery...

In short, no matter how ugly the scene is, it is always better than conceding more goals!

Thinking of this, Guardiola made a gesture of pressing down with both hands to the players on the field, and then pointed in the direction of his own defense.

This means asking Bayern players to stabilize their position and start to defend in position!

Although the Bayern players had questions in their minds, they still followed the instructions.

After all, they are all excellent professional players, and the first responsibility of professional players is to listen to the instructions of the head coach.

Otherwise, if you kick yours and I kick mine, why would you need a head coach?

Not to mention that if the tactical thinking is not unified and the field is scattered, defeat is certain.

But when this scene fell into the eyes of the guests and celebrities in the stands, they were a little confused.

They looked at me and I looked at you, looking at each other in confusion.

Bayern Munich, at the Allianz Arena, fell behind by one goal and set up a defensive position????

This is truly a scene I haven’t seen in countless years.

Even people like Beckenbauer, who have watched Bayern football all their lives, have never seen it! A real live-action one!

Even if Bayern loses, they can't lose so cowardly!

What about the iron-blooded spirit of the Germans?

Someone couldn't help but mutter:

"We at Bayern have always played efficient and concise offensive football. Now that Guardiola has come, he can't stand playing like a sissy. Why are we still playing defensive football?"

"This is so inconsistent with the spirit of our Bayern club. 'FC BAYERN, forever number one, we are outstanding!' The team song does not say that we have to sit back and drive the bus!"

"We are still one goal behind! Doesn't Guardiola want to come back? Lose less and win instead? Has he forgotten that he is at Bayern and at the Allianz Arena?"

"Having said that, Hamburg's current playing style has a shadow of ours last season...even playing faster and more oppressive! By the way, has our club considered hiring Pan Yi..."

And some people have solemn faces, such as Kahn.

He could see that Guardiola was forced to make a choice out of desperation.

Pan Yi’s burgers are really good!

Even a team of Bayern's level cannot compete with them in terms of fighting and controlling the ball.

And this represents Pan Yi's tactical victory.

Kahn actually had a chat with Guardiola before the game. He also heard Guardiola talk about Pan Yi's tactics, and even mentioned that Pan Yi's football represents the future trend of football!

And today's scene seems to prove this.

Is it true that no one can stop Pan Yi?

Will the German football hegemon be replaced from now on?
