519 You have taken away all the bamboo shoots on the Alps!
On the evening of April 3rd, Allianz Arena in Munich.
In the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, Bayern faced AC Milan at home.
Su Dong accepted the invitation from Bayern's Big Three and sat in the chairman's stand at the Allianz Arena to watch the game together.
Wang Chuqing sat beside Su Dong. Although Su Dong had never announced it to the outside world, everyone was already used to her presence.
The Big Three attach great importance to this Champions League, not only because AC Milan is one of the strongest teams in European football at the moment, but also because this is the home court. Bayern can only have a chance to advance if it wins AC Milan at home.
But from the first minute of the game, Bayern's performance was unsatisfactory.
Heynckes still arranged a stable 442 formation, with Podolski partnering with Ma Kai. This is Bayern's best forward combination except Sudong this season, especially Podolski, who has performed well in recent games.
The recovery in status is obvious.
But the rhythm of the entire game was completely dominated by AC Milan.
Ancelotti deployed a Christmas tree formation tonight, which is 4321, with five players in the midfield.
This can be regarded as an adjustment made by Ancelotti to AC Milan after Shevchenko left the team this season. The purpose is to control the midfield through the middle three and two.
Pirlo was at the end, and Gattuso and Ambrosini also retreated, freeing Pirlo so that the midfielder had no worries about defense and could devote himself to organization and offense.
Before Pirlo, Seedorf and Kaka were also key. Seedorf was good at organizing, passing and attacking, while Kaka was a weapon for the team to switch from defense to offense, especially his speed.
Su Dong only watched it for ten minutes and was not satisfied with the start of the first half.
"We retreated a little too far. Heynckes said before that we must press out as much as possible, but now we are always retreating unconsciously, which is not good." Su Dong shook his head.
Neither Van Buyten nor Lucio is the kind of central defender who can stand in his position. Once the formation shrinks, Bayern's defense problems will be exposed, which is not a good sign.
"We are at a disadvantage in terms of ball control and technology, which makes us too passive." Beckenbauer saw through the crux at a glance.
Playing at home, the opponent has an attacker like Kaka and a scorer like Inzaghi. If they lose possession of the ball and have no technical advantage, Bayern does not want to give away goals to their opponents, so naturally they can only seek stability.
Mentality is very important. Many times players act unconsciously and subconsciously on the court.
In the first ten minutes, Bayern could barely produce some offense, but after ten minutes, the game was completely dominated by AC Milan.
This made the situation on the court worse and worse.
"Marquet and Podolski didn't put enough pressure on Nesta and Maldini, and Jankurovski was too active, which made our right wing afraid to press forward. Sagnol
There is no threat on this side." Hoeness also felt helpless, as this was a characteristic that Bayern did not display.
Sure enough, AC Milan soon seized an opportunity.
After Nesta stole the ball from Podolski's feet, he quickly launched a counterattack.
After Kaka cut inside with the ball, he sent a diagonal pass with his left foot. Seedorf stopped the ball, turned around, dribbled the ball horizontally to avoid Bayern's two central defenders, and volleyed without much interference.
Van Buyten made a very fatal mistake when defending Seedorf's attack head-on. He jumped up directly.
Seedorf's kick was a ground ball, but after he jumped up, the ball passed through his crotch and flew directly into the goal.
This conceding goal made Bayern's three giants lose their composure.
Beckenbauer stood up directly and kept shouting: "I can't understand! I simply can't understand!"
The football emperor found it difficult to understand such a conceding goal, because it was definitely a mistake by the defensive player.
What's even more terrible is that after scoring a goal, AC Milan pursued the victory and continued to launch a series of fierce attacks on Bayern.
Two minutes later, Odo made a pass from the right and Inzaghi headed the ball towards the goal, but Kahn confiscated it.
But just a minute later, AC Milan launched another attack. Jankulovski passed a low pass from the left, Gattuso sent a direct pass from the center, Seedorf knocked his heel, and Inzaghi stopped the ball with his right foot.
Push shot and scored again.
Zero to two!
This time, Inzaghi didn't even have a defensive player next to him.
Van Buyten and Lucio are both out of position!
AC Milan's Christmas tree formation focuses on the midfield, especially passing and attacking in the middle.
When Mascherano faced Kaká and Seedorf alone, he was inevitably a little concerned about one thing and not the other. When the two central defenders were positioned to guard, there were serious problems, especially in the situation of AC Milan where there was a lot of horizontal pulling.
They can easily lose their position.
The midfielder's control ability was insufficient, the frontcourt offense did not pose a threat, and Ma Kai and Podolski were even more ineffective.
Bayern was completely defeated in this first half!
…
When the game changed sides in the second half, Heynckes made a substitution and replaced Ma Kai with Pizarro.
Bayern began to send out positive offensive signals, but AC Milan, with two goals in hand, began to retreat steadily, waiting for Bayern to press out before counterattacking behind Bayern.
This puts Bayern in a dilemma.
It doesn't matter if you attack, it doesn't matter if you don't attack.
Heynckes and Ancelotti took turns making moves, but neither could change the situation.
In the end, Bayern lost 2-0 at home.
The moment the referee blew the final whistle, Beckenbauer looked old.
Sitting on the seat, the football emperor kept shaking his head, "This is the cruelest punishment for us!"
Hoeness is also concerned, "Technology and ball control, this is the trend of European football in the next few years!"
AC Milan had the confidence to play Bayern like this because of its technical advantages and control of the ball.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If it were faced with Barcelona, which has a stronger ability to control the ball, Ancelotti would not dare to play like this no matter how much courage he was given.
In fact, Ancelotti is indeed afraid of Barcelona.
Before the draw, he said that it would be fine not to touch Barcelona.
Even though Su Dong left the team, Ancelotti is still worried about Barcelona's passing and ball control.
"Not only AC Milan, but also Manchester United this season is also adopting technology and adding ball control elements. For example, the joining of Carrick and the transformation of Scholes are all Ferguson's efforts to strengthen the passing and ball control elements in the midfield." Su
Dong said.
The three giants all nodded in unison. Ginger Head did not play like this before. Although he is old, he becomes more and more demonic as he gets older.
The combination of body and technology is the king of modern football!
Tonight, Bayern on the court has the body, but lacks the skills. It is not unfair to lose to AC Milan!
…………
…………
Bayern lost 0-2 at home to AC Milan, and the possibility of advancing to the semi-finals of the Champions League is almost zero.
This made the German football world howl.
Through this game, everyone can see the huge gap between Bayern and the top teams in Europe.
As the Bundesliga hegemon, Bayern is still like this, so the gap between other Bundesliga teams will only be wider.
German newspaper Bild believes that Bayern's loss is foreseeable, but if Sudong and Modric can participate, I believe the situation will be very different, and there is even the possibility of reversing the situation.
Therefore, Bild believes that Bayern's reforms are in the right direction and they should continue to persist and strengthen signings.
In addition, many German media have begun to pay attention to the Champions League's scorer list in the mood of celebrating the funeral.
Many people didn't pay attention before, but now they find that the number one scorer in the Champions League is Su Dong again.
He played six games in the Champions League group stage and scored 12 goals. No one can surpass him now.
Currently ranked behind Su Dong in the Champions League scorer list are Kaka and Real Madrid's Ruud van Nistelrooy, both of whom scored six goals.
This has generally amazed the German media and even the European media.
After only playing half of the season, he ranked first in the La Liga scorer list, and also ranked first in the Champions League scorer list. After coming to the Bundesliga, he actually ranked first.
This is simply not giving people a way to survive!
In the 28th round of the Bundesliga, before Bayern's away game against Hannover 96, when the German media asked Su Dong how he felt about being the top scorer in three competitions, Su Dong did not answer directly, but reminded him
media.
"Actually, I only played sixteen rounds in La Liga."
The media gathered at the scene were stunned at first, and then burst into laughter.
Look, what Su Dong said, win the bamboo shoots!
You've taken all the bamboo shoots on the Alps!
But was Su Dong wrong?
Not only is it not true, it makes perfect sense.
Because the half-way period of La Liga lasts for 19 rounds, and Sudong only played 16 rounds. They did not play half-time, right?
So when the news reached Spain, the Spanish media was in an uproar again, and more and more media were calling for La Liga's shooters to be more powerful and surpass Sudong no matter what.
Do you want to win the Golden Boot after sixteen rounds?
Go ahead and dream of your spring and autumn dreams!
But the problem is that Kanoute, who is closest to Sudong, has been in a scoring drought recently...
…
Su Dong was unable to participate in the Champions League, and there was nothing he could do about the team's defeat in the quarterfinals.
The only thing that can be done is to lead the team to victory in the league and rebuild morale.
So in the away game against Hannover 96, even though the home team played aggressive football from the beginning, which made the demoralized Bayern very embarrassed, in the ninth minute, Su Dong received a direct pass from Modric.
, single-handedly, dribbled the ball into the penalty area, calmly fired, and opened the scoring for Bayern.
Then in the second half, Demichelis relied on a free kick and hit the goal with a header.
Although Hannover got a goal back at 96, Bayern still scored another goal in the 71st minute through Bastian Schweinsteiger.
In the end, Bayern defeated Hannover 96 3-1 in an away game and scored three points again.
This also allowed Bayern, which suffered a heavy defeat at home to AC Milan, to stop its decline in the league in time.
Heynckes issued an appeal, hoping that the team can regroup and play bloody games in the away game, striving to reverse AC Milan and reach the semi-finals of the Champions League.
Although the hope is very slim, Mr. Hai called on the team to fight until the last moment no matter what.
In the end, Bayern equalized the score twice after falling behind twice in the away game, and tied with AC Milan 2-2 at the San Siro Stadium.
But with a total score of 2 to 4, Bayern was eliminated.
