On the evening of May 20th, Berlin Olympiastadion.
German Cup final, Werder Bremen vs Bayern Munich.
The game is about to start.
Former Bayern forward Pizarro and former Porto forward Almeida stood in the center circle, waiting for the kick-off.
Su Dong stood outside the center circle. The rain had completely soaked his jersey. From time to time, he would reach out to wipe the rain off his face.
This is going to be a very bad experience in a rain fight!
But that's what Berlin is like at this time of year.
Pizarro, Almeida, and Sudong are all familiar with each other. The former was once a Bayern player, while the latter was the center promoted by Mourinho in Porto and also played with Sudong in the Portuguese Super League.
There was a time when Portugal hoped to call Su Dong into the national team, but failed, so Almeida was asked to replace Su Dong. Because he was also tall and strong, the Portuguese football world had high hopes.
But in the end, Almeida failed to grow into what everyone expected.
Just a week ago, the Copa del Rey was held as scheduled. Barcelona defeated Athletic Bilbao four to one and won the Copa del Rey without any surprises, achieving a double crown.
Mourinho's team is only one Champions League away from winning the Triple Crown.
It was also after this final that Mourinho issued a high-profile challenge to Bayern Munich, threatening to defeat Bayern in Rome.
Not only that, Mourinho also said that he has confidence in Barcelona's defense and firmly believes that the team can defend Sudong because Barcelona has the best defensive players in Europe.
"When I met Su Dong, he was just an unknown rookie. I watched him transform from a rookie to a star. No one understands him better than me, and no one knows how to defend him better than me.
."
"Really, I won't let Su Dong score at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome!"
As for Barcelona, Mourinho said that Messi will become the team's decisive player.
"He is more talented than Su Dong!"
Obviously, Barcelona is already one step ahead of Bayern on the road to the Triple Crown.
…
As the referee blew his whistle, Almeida and Pizarro took the lead.
In the stadium, fans of both teams let out deafening cheers.
Diego was very active right from the start.
The Brazilian midfielder is one of the best midfielders in the Bundesliga this season, but just a few days ago, Werder Bremen officially announced that Diego will transfer to Werder Bremen for a high price of 25 million euros.
Juventus in Serie A.
In other words, Diego will leave Werder Bremen after this season.
Before the game, Diego said that he was very grateful for all the help he received at Werder Bremen. He hopes to leave a championship for this team, so he will give his best in the German Cup final.
Help Werder Bremen defeat Bayern.
At the beginning of the game, Diego showed a very sharp threat, leading Werder Bremen's attack group to launch a fierce attack on Bayern, and created a free kick opportunity in the frontcourt.
Diego personally took the free kick and accurately lobbed it into the penalty area. Center defender Pledel grabbed the spot and headed the ball towards the goal.
Neuer's concentration was very concentrated and his reaction was quick enough. He hit the ball with one hand and almost resolved a crisis.
After that, Werder Bremen continued to maintain offensive pressure on Bayern.
Schaff's team has always been known for its offense, and tonight was no exception.
In the 11th minute, Neuer rushed out of the penalty area, stole Werder Bremen's direct pass, and quickly passed the ball to his teammates.
But Werder Bremen suddenly stepped up their pressure and Frings successfully intercepted the ball. Seeing that Neuer was a little far away from the goal, he directly lobbed a long-distance shot straight towards the goal.
Neuer quickly returned to defense and lifted the ball over the crossbar with one hand, making everyone break out in a cold sweat.
Heynckes could only rush to the sidelines and signal Neuer not to take any more risks.
I have to say that this German goalkeeper is very fierce. When he performs well, he is really good.
Very happy.
If we really talk about footwork, as a goalkeeper, Neuer's footwork is really good.
But unfortunately, Heynckes is old and has a bad heart, so he can't stand playing like this.
…
One characteristic of Bayern under Heynckes' training is that they are good at attacking from behind.
In the first ten minutes of the game, Werder Bremen had an overwhelming advantage, but Bayern gradually stabilized their position and slowly reversed the situation, and soon organized a threatening counterattack.
Lahm dribbled the ball straight from the right without cooperating with anyone, and directly dribbled the ball to the right side of Bremen's penalty area.
This sudden attack from behind shocked everyone in Bremen.
After rushing to the right side of the penalty area, Bremen left back Bernisch only focused on blocking Lahm's pass, trying to cut off Lahm's pass to Su Dong. Unexpectedly, Lahm suddenly buckled the ball back and passed the ball.
Return to the front of the penalty area to Robben.
After stopping the ball with his left foot, the Dutchman made a slight adjustment, passed the ball past Nardo, and fired directly.
However, this shot failed to create a threat and was hugged by goalkeeper Wiese.
Although he failed to score a goal, this attack also created momentum for Bayern.
Just four minutes later, Bayern made a comeback again.
After the attack from the left failed and the pass was passed back, Schweinsteiger and Modric made consecutive cross passes. Modric passed the center line and passed the ball to Lahm on the right.
After Lahm got the ball, he passed it straight. After Robben stopped the ball in the 30-meter area, facing Bernisch, he first made continuous small steps to adjust, and then suddenly dribbled the ball laterally and cut inside.
Robben suddenly cut inside and got rid of Bernisch, attracting the attention of Bowman and Nardo. On the right side of the penalty area, he sent a straight pass with his left foot to behind Nardo.
Su Dong suddenly made a diagonal pass behind Naldo from the top area of the arc. He was extremely fast. After getting the ball, he rushed past Predel's defense and dribbled the ball to the right side of the front edge of the small penalty area. Facing goalkeeper Wiese, Su Dong
After a fake move, Dong suddenly pushed the ball to the near corner.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wiese reacted quickly and tried to block the ball, but was a little slower.
The ball missed the right post and entered Werder Bremen's goal.
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"In the 16th minute, Bayern opened the scoring!"
"Goal from Su Dong, one to zero!!!!"
Su Dong was soaked all over, but he ran all the way out of the stadium and went straight to the stands where the Bayern fans were.
Tens of thousands of Bayern fans in the entire stadium were shouting Su Dong's name in unison, with great momentum.
…
With Sudong's goal, Werder Bremen also gradually suspended its offensive.
Obviously, Schaff and his players are also clearly aware that continuing to attack will only allow Bayern to keep scoring goals.
The situation of the game gradually turned around, and Bayern began to show enough patience.
The first half ended with 1-0.
But as soon as the second half began, Werder Bremen couldn't sit still.
They began to use the opening to launch a wave of attacks, trying to score a goal.
But Bayern was just waiting for Werder Bremen to come out and play.
First, Su Dong received a long pass from the backcourt, then turned around and passed the ball to Robben. Robben took the ball one-on-one, knocked down Werder Bremen's Flins on the left, and broke through on the right side of the penalty area.
Bernisch hit the goal again.
Although it was saved by goalkeeper Wiese, Robben's wonderful performance was breathtaking.
Just three minutes later, there was another backcourt counterattack. After Su Dong received the ball sideways, he dribbled the ball forward, just past the center line, attracting the attention of Predel and Naldo, and passed the ball diagonally behind him.
Ribery quickly stepped in, dribbled the ball straight in, and scored with a single push shot, giving Bayern another victory.
After scoring the goal, the French scarface rushed directly to the sidelines, fell down on the slippery grass, and slid out of the stadium.
Bayern players also rushed over to celebrate his goal.
Robben was relatively depressed. His performance was even better, but he had no luck with his shooting tonight.
…
After Bayern took a two-goal lead, especially after the 60 minutes of the game, Werder Bremen could only step up their attack and step up their attack, while Bayern began to steadily adopt a defensive counterattack strategy.
Both sides came and went, and the competition was very fierce.
Until the 73rd minute, Bayern once again launched a quick counterattack.
Modric cooperated with Lahm on the right. After receiving the pass, he glanced at the penalty area and directly passed the ball diagonally to the left side of the penalty area.
Su Dong quickly stepped in and, under the force of Predel, stopped the ball with his chest. Just before he lost his balance and fell to the ground, he stabbed the ball with his foot.
The ball crossed a straight line and entered the lower right corner of Werder Bremen's goal.
Goalkeeper Wiese only focused on the near corner and ignored the far corner.
Three to zero!
“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!”
"It's Su Dong again!"
"Predel was all over him, but he still took the opportunity to score."
"Two goals! Franck Ribery's goal just now also came from an assist from Su Dong!"
"Three to zero!"
"Bayern seems to be a sure winner. Werder Bremen once again fell at the feet of Bayern."
"Su Dong has also continued his excellent form since the winter break and is simply unstoppable."
…
Although Bremen tried to counterattack in the final stage, there was no way in the end.
Heynckes' formation was quite sophisticated and stable, and did not give Schaff the slightest chance. This left Bremen with nothing to do, and they did not dare to rush forward, for fear of being counterattacked again, conceding more goals, and even worse.
Face is dull.
In the end, in the German Cup final, which German football and even the entire European football world paid close attention to, Bayern relied on Su Dong's two goals to defeat Werder Bremen 3-0 and successfully defended the German Cup championship.
In this way, the Champions League final will become interesting.
Bayern and Barcelona have both won the league and cup championships, and are waiting for the Champions League winner to complete the treble.
After the game, Su Dong also accepted the media interview for the first time, responding to Mourinho's various provocations before the game.
He said that Messi is indeed the most talented superstar he has ever seen.
"He is a phenomenal player. No matter how much we value him, we cannot overestimate him. He will be Barcelona's most threatening player."
Su Dong was quite polite to himself and his followers, but he was not polite to Mourinho.
"He would say this before every game with me, but after every game, he would give himself a lot of reasons and excuses to explain why he lost. I'm used to it!"
