Football’s First Defender

Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich! At this time, the road to the excavator has begun, but it is not as crazy as digging later!

Excavators now only dig out top players, unlike later on, players from other Bundesliga teams started digging when they showed signs of being kicked out!

However, last season's Bayern Munich encountered the lowest moment in recent years. As the defending champion, Bayern Munich's performance in the league is really bad! In the end, he only finished fourth and missed the Champions League! Can only be forced to play the European Cup!

Although the team re-invited the meritorious coach Heathfield to take over the coach again during the winter break! However, at that time, the team's morale had been dissipated. Although Heathfield made great efforts to improve, adjust the mentality of the players, and enhance their competitive spirit, they were still powerless and did not qualify for the Champions League!

In the summer transfer period before the start of the 07/08 season, Bayern Munich completed a drastic reform of the team lineup! Whenever the team's record is bad, it's time for the giants to change their blood! In other words, before the intentional big change, the team will inevitably shake, resulting in a serious decline in record! (That's right, I'm talking about my emperor! Let's see Zhenzhang next season! Hmph!)

Fired, sold, and rented out a total of 9 people! While cleaning up the team personnel, 8 new aids were introduced!

Especially the introduction of high center forward Luca Toni from Fiorentina! Bundesliga rival Werder Bremen has dug its main striker Klose! Winger Franck Ribery was introduced from Ligue 1 Marseille!

These three generals have performed extremely well in Bayern. From the beginning of the new season, they have destroyed the city of Bayern Munich, which has been reborn from the ashes!

Luca Toni even scored 8 goals in 9 rounds before the start of the game, showing his terrifying scoring ability!

Relying on the offensive firepower that has returned to the peak, Bayern Munich has been leading the standings in the new season. Until the final stage of the league today, it still maintains a 10-point lead over the second-placed Werder Bremen!

In the German Cup, Bayern Munich also has an unusually correct attitude this season. They are advancing all the way, rushing to the double crown, no, if they can win the European Cup, they will be the triple crown, and work hard!

Although the content of this triple crown is a bit low, for Bayern Munich, which was empty of the four majors last season, this season is their own battle for rectification. Who would think there are too many championship trophies!

Zenit is about to face such a strong opponent now! A high-spirited Bundesliga class bully-Bayern Munich!

Bayern Munich, in the European Cup, its strength itself is at the highest level. For all teams, fighting Bayern is a super problem!

Don't look at him being tied 2-2 by the Scottish Super League team Aberdeen away, and also defeated by the Belgian team Anderlecht 2-1 at home!

But the knockout rounds are two rounds. For Bayern, one game can solve the battle, and another game is not impossible! The 5-1 home slaughter of Aberdeen and the 5-0 away bloodbath of Anderlecht may be the true strength of this Bayern Munich team!

In the European Cup, even in the knockout stage, they can still crush their opponents without any pressure!

That is to say, taking advantage of the injury of Tony, who played a fulcrum role in the frontcourt of Bayern Munich this season, the Spanish team Getafe, relying on their own tenacious will and tireless running, dragged Bayern Munich into the last round of the game. In fierce battle!

The score of 1 to 1 in the two rounds may indeed startle the Bayern players in a cold sweat!

But in the end, Bayern Munich was superior and advanced in a thrilling way!

Otherwise, if Getafe really eliminated Bayern in an upset, then Zenit would not have to think so hard about how to cross the mountain of Bayern now!

no way! The lineup of the giants is really strong! Everyone in Zenit, who are so confident in their excellent offensive ability, dare not boast that Haikou can beat this Bayern Munich team, even if Tony may still be unable to play due to injury!

At this time, although Bayern is still in the process of changing from old to new, most of the renewal of veterans has been completed, and the degree of running-in of the team has basically completed the chemical reaction as the season progresses! Except for the injury factor, the team lineup has already been finalized, and there will not be much change!

Um! Hitzfeld is not a coach who is willing to change the main lineup frequently!

As the goalkeeper Kahn who is about to retire this season, no surprises, this will be his last season in European competitions, and the starting position should be safe!

Although Kahn's status in the club declined after the 2002 World Cup, his rich experience and prestige in the team brought Bayern Munich more than just the help of an excellent goalkeeper. He is also the spiritual leader of the team, the existence that can bring the team together!

Of course, Bayern's various positions are basically the main players of the major national teams!

Argentine international Demichelis and Brazilian international Lucio form a central defense line. Although they sometimes make mistakes, their personal strength is definitely world-class! The line of defense formed by these two people formed an indestructible city wall in front of Kahn! Even in the Bundesliga, which advocates offense, Bayern has only conceded 17 goals in the 29 rounds so far. These two central defenders definitely contributed!

The two full-backs Lahm and Jansen are also German internationals, but in the national team, Lahm plays the main position! These two guard the left and right sides, both offensive and defensive, and can support the front attack as much as possible, enrich the offensive tactics, and open up space on the side! Retreat can defend with peace of mind, assist the two central defenders, and the defense limits most of the opponent's offensive methods!

And Ribery, the explosive point on the left, is the biggest explosive point in Bayern's offensive tactics! His breakthrough ability on the wing, his ability to pass threatening balls or hit the goal personally is extremely strong. Sometimes one person can tear apart the entire defense line of the opponent. He is definitely a thigh-level figure! It will be another difficult game for Anyukov to face this opponent general!

Klose on the forward line is a well-deserved starting striker. He has maintained an efficient scoring ability in recent years, and he is not tall, but his header ability is extremely good. He is good at interspersed running. Under such circumstances, he will be the biggest threat to the defense line formed by Yang Feng and Skrtel!

Other positions may be fine-tuned as the formation changes, but no matter which player is on, they are definitely at the international level. This is the background of the giants!

Although Zenit has a slight advantage in the schedule first, the away game against Bayern Munich is definitely the biggest test that Zenit has encountered so far!

After passing this hurdle, whether the opponent in the final is the Glasgow Rangers or Fiorentina, they will be Zenit's stepping stones on the way to the championship!
