Van Gaal saw that Robben was severely restricted by Lazio, so he decided to modify his tactics and let Thomas Muller take on more offensive responsibilities.
Then, after attracting the defensive attention of the Lazio defender, he passed the football to Robben.
The idea is good, but Robben has lost his form under the defensive defense of Jose Passarella and Pavon.
He did have what looked like a good chance before the end of the first half
But it just “looks good”
Because as soon as he got the ball in the penalty area, Jose Passarella came forward and got stuck inside him, forcing Robben to control the ball with his right foot.
Robben's left foot is world-class, and his right foot is not much different from amateur level...
Robben, who controls the ball with his right foot, is not only unable to pass people, let alone shoot.
In the end, he forced a shot and ended up kicking the plane.
Didn't even get a corner kick
This was Bayern Munich's best scoring chance in the first half
The first half then ended. Lazio temporarily led Bayern Munich 1:0 with Cazorla's goal in the first half.
Although there are not many goals and the lead is not big, anyone who has watched this game will think that Lazio has the upper hand.
Advantages are not simply reflected by the number of goals scored.
At halftime, the atmosphere on Lazio's side was much more relaxed than that on Bayern Munich's side.
This kind of ease is completely different from the ease of AC Milan who led by three goals in the first half and opened the champagne at halftime.
Lazio's players hope that the second half will start quickly. They have a strong desire to fight and win.
Their fighting spirit is high
Not arrogant and underestimating the enemy, not relaxed
Chang Sheng only used one sentence to praise the team's performance in the first half.
Then he started to tell everyone what situations they would encounter in the second half and what they should do.
Everyone can see that the core of Bayern Munich's midfield is Bastian Schweinsteiger. In the first half, it was mainly Ledesma who restricted him. In the second half, he will continue to restrict him. As long as Schweinsteiger does not perform well, Bayern Munich will
You can only use Robben
Thomas Muller is talented, but he is not a center forward.
Robben's poor performance and Olic's mediocre strength are forcing Muller to be a center forward.
What did he do well?
Although Lazio plays a fantasy offense like Barcelona, their defensive hardness and intensity are not inferior to those of real defensive counterattack teams.
Another thing to watch out for is Lahm and Van Bommel's forward shots.
Of course, the most important thing is to stick to Lazio's own rhythm
"As long as we increase the rhythm and speed, Bayern Munich will not be able to keep up... Just like our goal in the first half, we were very fast, and Bayern Munich would just follow us and eat dust! In the second half
We must continue to fight like this! Let us drive away so that they can only eat our exhaust!"
One word, quick!
Two words quickly!
Three words, very fast!
This is the core idea of the ever-victorious Lazio
In the world of martial arts, only fast ones are invincible. Only fast ones are invincible.
Like a tornado, it sweeps through quickly. The slow opponents can only be swept up and run into the sky, or they can dance with them in the same rhythm as Lazio. But this consumes physical strength quickly and has not been professionally trained.
It’s hard for an ordinary team to last for ten minutes
Or it will be completely destroyed by the tornado and torn into pieces.
This kind of fast, unreasonable, and me-centered
In addition, any player can participate in the offense and become an organizer, making it difficult for opponents to defend themselves.
This is why many people are now analyzing and studying Lazio's tactics. Their analysis is clear and logical. There are many research results, but there are still not many teams that can beat Lazio.
My strengths and weaknesses are all there. Anyone can see me and let me know, but you still can't deal with us!
What does it mean to be unreasonable?
This is so unreasonable
I'm so quick and I drag you away, what's going on?
You have the ability to keep up with my speed!
Either follow or die
Of course, in fact, keeping up is a dead end in the end, because almost no team can maintain this fast pace for just ten minutes. When they slow down, that is when they die.

Louis van Gaal suffers headache in Bayern Munich dressing room
He knew that Lazio's tactics were all about speed, and he took the overall speed to the extreme, forcing Bayern Munich to follow their rhythm.
This will definitely be too much for Bayern Munich. Even if your physical fitness is fine, because you are not used to this fast pace, you will easily make mistakes after getting up quickly.
These mistakes were finally caught by Lazio, but they were still a dead end.
In fact, if they don't want to fall into Lazio's rhythm, Bayern Munich just needs to slow down.
Shrink the defense and not attack easily
but……
Now Bayern Munich has conceded the goal
What’s the point of shrinking defense?
If they couldn't equalize the score, even if they didn't concede a goal in the second half, they would just lose the game with a score of 0:1 in the end.
It's just that from the score point of view, their defeat was pretty good. After the game, they could still say, "Facing such a powerful Lazio, it was an honor for us to lose."
But this result means nothing to Van Gaal
As the head coach, you led the team to the finals just for the sake of a game that would be glorious even if you lose?
Stop talking nonsense!
※※※
While Louis van Gaal cried at halftime, Bayern Munich fans were relatively optimistic
They admitted that Lazio had an absolute advantage in terms of the scene.
But precisely because of this, the score of 0:1 is so precious.
In a situation where they were completely at a disadvantage, they only conceded one goal, which just shows how tenacious and powerful Bayern Munich is!
They already knew that Lazio was better than Bayern Munich.
As long as they win, it doesn't matter how they win.
If Bayern Munich, which is weaker than Lazio, wants to win, it will naturally be more difficult.
As long as they can defend solidly in the second half, stop conceding the ball, and then make a few efficient counterattacks, they'll be fine.
They don't compare with Lazio in possession of the ball, they don't compare in the number of shots, they compare in efficiency.
Efficiency is king!
They can only have four shots in a game, but they can score two goals
And even if there are forty shots, so what? You can only score one goal!
※※※
After the start of the second half, Bayern Munich did not choose to defend and counterattack
Maybe Van Gaal knows that defense is useless at this time.
His team is still attacking
Hope to equalize the score before Lazio
He is not greedy either, as long as he can score a goal
Score a goal, equalize the score, then immediately ask the team to shrink the defense, defend until the end of the game, and finally take a penalty kick
Bayern Munich defeated Lazio for the first time on penalties
This is the only way to beat Lazio
※※※
Chang Sheng guessed what Van Gaal was thinking when he saw Bayern Munich's playing style. This approach was really bold.
It's worthy of admiration, but not worthy of sympathy
Lazio will not show mercy just because Bayern Munich bravely chose to attack
They will only use more rapid attacks to completely destroy their opponents!
Lazio loves to attack
This means there will be a lot of space behind the opponent
For a team like Lazio that is good at passing the ball at high speed, these spaces are very easy to exploit.
So just ten minutes into the second half, Lazio scored again!
Or after Bayern Munich came up to attack, Lazio counterattacked.
Three passes and two passes to the frontcourt
David Silva dribbled the ball towards the ribs to approach Bayern Munich's defense. Bayern Munich's right back, their captain Lahm was not allowed to come up to defend David Silva.
Cavani's movement from the center to the ribs created the illusion of meeting David Silva. In order to prevent him from easily establishing contact with David Silva, Bayern Munich center back Van Buyten followed him.
In this way, Cavani took away one of the original two central defenders, and their defensive strength in the middle was suddenly much empty.
Upon seeing this, David Silva did not pass the football to Cavani, but passed the ball laterally... and passed the football to the center!
Gotze came to the center from the wing and received the ball!
The remaining center back of Bayern Munich, Demichelis, stepped forward to defend head-on.
Gotze is a dangerous man. Although he is not yet 18 years old, he has already been compared with Messi.
It is naturally impossible to ignore such a character...
Demichelis faced Götze, who was facing the goal, as if facing a formidable enemy.
This posture is the favorite for offensive players.
because they have many choices
Demichelis' main focus was on defending Gotze's shots and breakthroughs.
Gotze made a fake move to take a long shot, but pushed the football into the space between Demichelis and Badstuber!
Pass the ball!
※※※
"Cazorla!" accompanied the narrator's exclamation.
Cazorla came in from the ribs
Badstuber quickly turned around and pounced sideways.
But how can he match Cazorla's speed?
He stretched out his hand to grab Cazorla but didn't catch it!
Demichelis also turned back to defend at the same time!
Then he relied on his physical advantage to lean towards Cazorla, hoping to squeeze Cazorla to the baseline and make him lose the angle of shooting.
But Cazorla moved faster than him. As he leaned forward, he took a shot!
The football hit Demichelis' outstretched leg and suddenly bounced up!
This time it just bypassed goalkeeper Bute who blocked the shot from the near corner...
Next, the football fell towards the back goal post...
Another central defender, Van Buyten, rushed back and tried to clear the football with a very difficult overhead kick.
But he missed!
The football crossed the goal line and entered Bayern Munich's goal for the second time! (To be continued...)
