Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid

It goes without saying that Bayern fans have trust and expectations for Robben, but if they want to make a comeback at this moment, just replacing Robben is not enough.

Playing Robben will at best lead to a breakthrough attack on the right.

But the defensive void in the midfield is still there.

It is completely unrealistic to play Muller and then Thiago, putting all the burden of midfield defense on Schweinsteiger's shoulders.

In the past, they played in the Bundesliga and some teams in the Champions League that were not strong enough to be top-notch. Bayern could forget about arranging the starting lineup like this.

But now Chelsea, who are playing the hardest counterattack in Europe, Bayern still dares to make such a starting arrangement. To put it harshly, it is completely seeking death!

Not to mention playing Chelsea in this round, if you draw lots randomly, Bayern will not be able to pass the test against Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.

Martinez is still needed. Without him, Schweinsteiger will not be able to play his all-round role.

On the contrary, it will become a complete defensive black hole because Thiago does not return to defense in time.

After all, his personal ability has declined significantly compared to last year.

In this case, it is completely unreasonable to accuse Bastian Schweinsteiger of defensive negligence.

Mueller also did his best.

He is an attacking midfielder, and when his teammates lose the ball, he returns to defense with all his strength, and even rushes directly back to the front of his own penalty area. Isn't he working hard enough?

Thiago even said that the tactical arrangement made by Peregone before the game was to let him press forward to organize the offense.

You can't ask him to press into Chelsea's half to organize and dispatch, and at the same time ask him to return to defend in front of his own penalty area every time, right?

He is not a B2B guy like Li Ang who is as strong as steel.

If we really want him to learn how to play like Li Ang, then he will only have 50 or 60 minutes of competition stamina. If he can't run, just send it!

For a moment, everyone in Bayern's midfield trio felt aggrieved.

Pellegrini was a little helpless sitting on the coaching bench.

When Bayern approached him, they promised him that they would build a new Bayern based on his tactical concepts.

Moreover, Bayern's top management also gave him authorization, suggesting that he can start cleaning up the veterans in the team.

Pei Gong has his own set of tactics. He also walks very smoothly on the path of offensive football, and it is not a bad idea to use offense instead of defense.

If Bayern really wants to use the double defensive midfielder and 4231 system that Hai Shuai used before, then Bayern can just find a Bundesliga coach and copy the previous tactics. Asking him to come is completely unnecessary.

He definitely doesn't want to be a tactical puppet.

And when the new official takes office, he also has his favorite midfielder Thiago.

Under the premise of not moving the old men Muller and Bastian Schweinsteiger, he naturally can only move Martinez, who has been injured a lot this season.

Letting Gotze take over and gradually replace veteran Robben also has hints from Bayern's top brass.

So Pellegrini also doesn't think he did anything wrong.

Conceding a goal at this time, the game situation was very serious, but Pellegrini still could not easily bow to Robben and Martinez on the bench.

If you need to make substitutions or adjustments, that's fine.

But not at this moment, not in the first half of the game.

Making adjustments at this time is equivalent to Pellegrini admitting his mistakes and bowing to the tactical philosophy left behind by Heynckes.

It's true that Pei Gong is a good old man, but he also has his own tactical pride.

It is difficult to distinguish right from wrong, only suitable or inappropriate.

Li Ang didn't know the ideological struggle in Pellegrini's heart at this moment. He just felt very relieved after seeing that there was no action on the Bayern coaching bench.

In general, Bayern's current tactical play is very separate from the tough style they have played in the past few seasons.

The old Bayern players still retain a lot of Heynckes' tactical style.

But Bayern players like Thiago, Gotze and Lewandowski who are actively moving closer to new head coach Pellegrini have another tactical idea.

One group accepts it conservatively, while the other group actively moves closer.

However, Pellegrini does not have many excellent championship honors to show off to convince Bayern's locker room.

If you think about it on a deeper level, the factional issues within the Bayern team are really too complicated.

Reflecting on the court, Bayern's starting players at this moment do not seem to have the sense of close unity and team strength that they had last season.

Lahm was still encouraging the morale of other Bayern players, but few Bayern players responded to his spiritual call.

In contrast, the Chelsea players who had just finished their celebrations looked so united!

Li Ang held Cross's shoulders intimately and said something in his ear, and then both of them laughed.

Ibrahimovic was still rubbing the head of Hazard who scored, and De Bruyne and Azpilicueta hugged again to celebrate.

At this time, Terry was still waving his arms toward the stands, stimulating the enthusiasm of the home fans!

Mourinho stood on the sidelines and applauded his disciples enthusiastically.

With a smile on his face and confident eyes, he seemed to be winning.

The Chelsea players who returned to their own half cheered each other up, alerted each other, and prepared to continue the game with high morale.

The mental outlook of the two teams is in sharp contrast at Stamford Bridge at this moment, and they look completely different.

Many neutral fans who were naively optimistic about Bayern before the game also quickly stood on the fence and changed their rhetoric.

The game restarted soon, but this time Chelsea didn't play any tricks with Bayern. They really started to stick to it!

However, the uninformed Bayern players on the field and Pellegrini on the sidelines did not dare to be careless.

Bayern and Chelsea, who did not continue to press forward aggressively, seemed to have formed a tacit understanding on the field and directly slowed down the pace of the game.

Bayern's attack was weak, but Chelsea defended resolutely. For a moment, Bayern seemed to have no way to deal with Chelsea's stubborn defense.

The game went on until the 30th minute of the first half.

Many players on the Bayern bench also began to warm up on the sidelines.

Not only Robben and Martinez, but also Bayern's substitute forward Pizarro and substitute midfielder Rod all started warm-up activities.

It wasn't until the 35th minute of the first half that Bayern regained its momentum and once again pressed forward to attack Chelsea's half.

But facing Chelsea's 451 formation, which was directly changed at this moment, Bayern did not have a good solution to break the situation.

Ribery tried to break through with the ball on the left wing and caused several fouls on Azpilicueta.

But Lewandowski's performance in set-piece opportunities is still mediocre.

In the entire first half, he only contributed one shot and seemed almost invisible.

We cannot directly ignore his fulcrum role, but compared to Mandzukic last year, Lewandowski's performance in this half was simply not even qualified.

But now Bayern doesn't need him and has no other better center available.

Both Mandzukic and Gomez were sold in the summer window last year. Between Lewandowski and veteran Pizarro, Bayern fans can only choose the younger Lewandowski.

When the final whistle sounded, Bayern's players walked towards the tunnel in a hurry.

Pei Gong also walked quickly to the locker room without a smile.

For Chelsea, their preparations for the second half will be much easier.

Mourinho first praised all Chelsea players in the locker room, and then emphasized the importance of stabilizing defense in the second half.

“The more solid we defend, the more defensive flaws they will reveal; the less anxious we are, the more anxious they will be!

Of course, if they choose to call it quits in this game, then we will totally make a profit~

In this game, all I ask of you is not to concede the ball!

Attack carefully and defend first. If we do this in this game, we will be invincible when we go to the Allianz Arena in Munich in the second round..."

Mourinho's earnest instructions are engraved in the minds of all Chelsea players.

At the beginning of the second half, Chelsea still put on a defensive posture, no matter how tempted Bayern was, they would not be fooled!

And as Mourinho said, as long as Chelsea can stay calm, Bayern will only become more anxious as they play.

Chelsea faced Juventus in the last round. At least Allegri was able to suppress the players in the team. That means that if you face defenders, you must face defenders.

After conceding a goal first, it didn't give Chelsea many chances to counterattack, and the suspense of the game was postponed to the second round.

But Bayern can't do this. First of all, Pellegrini can't suppress all the Bayern veterans in the team.

The glory of last season's treble also made Bayern's players unbearable to lose the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals with Chelsea like this!

Even if we lose, we can't lose in such a frustrating way.

Chelsea died in the charge last season, so there is no reason why Bayern should be a coward this season.

Ribery took the lead in launching the charge.

Chelsea's entire team stood firm and remained undisturbed. Under Thiago Silva's close surveillance, Lewandowski still didn't have any good opportunities to grab points.

However, Muller did have several good connections with Ribery at this time. The two fired long-range shots one after another, which tested Cech's saving skills.

But given Bayern several corner kick opportunities, Chelsea's defenders were not afraid.

Terry very strongly asserted his defensive sovereignty in the penalty area.

It was not until the 70th minute of the second half that Pellegrini chose to make a substitution.

But Pergone did not directly remove a midfielder or defender and add an offensive player. Instead, he replaced Muller, who had performed well before, with Robben!

This substitution was completely beyond the expectations of all Bayern fans. They thought that Perez would at least replace Gotze, who did not perform well today, with Robben...

Muller's face didn't look good, but he finally obeyed the coach's arrangement and left the field depressed.

In front of the camera, Muller still gave Peggy enough respect. After hugging Pellegrini, he walked to the bench.

After coming on the field, Robben trotted all the way to the right, while Gotze came to the middle of the midfield.

Now, Bayern's two-wing formation is back, but the old enemies of Li Ang and Gotze are once again facing each other.

So what else is there to say?

Of course, Li Ang will not be polite to Gotze. As long as Gotze wants to hold the ball and walk in the middle, he will definitely go up and give his old friend a hard blow.

And after Bayern made substitutions and adjustments, Li Ang also saw hope of further expanding his lead.

Bayern's midfield defense was already very problematic before.

But now Pellegrini replaced Muller, who was actively returning to defense, and asked Gotze to play in the middle.

That is completely a matter of focusing on the head rather than the body, further exaggerating one's own defensive disadvantage.

Sure enough, after Bayern replaced Robben, they further strengthened their offense, and their two-wing tactics also played very well.

However, in the middle of the midfield, Gotze and Thiago were both pushing too far forward. At this moment, the midfield defense almost relied on Schweinsteiger alone.

Li Ang waited patiently.

As Mourinho said at halftime, attack with caution.

At this time, the first thing he has to ensure is the integrity of his own midfield defense.

However, Bayern's slightly anxious attack quickly gave him a chance.

In the 79th minute of the second half, after Robben came on as a substitute, he took advantage of his more abundant physical fitness and technical advantages to quickly open up the situation on the right.

Both Bertrand and Matic can only defend passively on this side.

Taking away the space in the rib area, Robben tried to make a threatening pass behind the Chelsea defense, but Gotze and he obviously did not think of going together.

Robben sent the ball in advance, but Gotze only advanced halfway before stopping. He thought Robben would safely send the ball to his feet first.

In fact, both of them were right. If I had to say it, Robben was a little more anxious.

But at this time, there is not much game time left. If you want to equalize the score at Chelsea's home court, you have to make more risky attempts.

Robben's intention was good, but unfortunately his partner is no longer the agile Muller...

Terry, who succeeded in picking up the miss, quickly swept the football towards Cross who was retreating to receive the ball.

Kroos split the ball to the side immediately after receiving the ball. De Bruyne on the right led the ball into the middle, directly avoiding Bernat's counterattack!

And in the next moment, Li Ang started to advance forward like an arrow, and De Bruyne also sent a forward through ball with great understanding!

The passing and running cooperation between the two directly penetrated Bayern's entire midfield defense!

Bastian Schweinsteiger struggled to catch up, but Boateng, who was at the end of Bayern's defense, did not dare to attack easily. There was Ibrahimovic beside him, so he could only retreat passively.

Li Ang advances very quickly with the ball. This is also an excellent opportunity for Chelsea to counterattack!

After seeing Ibrahimovic restraining Boateng's defense, Li Ang took the ball slightly to the right side of the midfield, wanting to observe Hazard's speed.

However, in the gap between turning his head, Li Ang was keenly aware of Neuer's positioning problem.

The German national goalkeeper likes to attack, and his range of activities is also quite large.

At this moment, his position is far away from his own goal and closer to the penalty area line.

A very crazy idea suddenly came into Li Ang's mind.

After estimating that the position where he was holding the ball would not be more than 40 meters away from Bayern's goal, Li Ang's heart suddenly changed, he immediately adjusted his steps, and then swung his legs with full force!

Commentators from various countries were simply stunned at this moment!

So much so that when Li Ang swung his legs and hit the goal with great force, many commentators seemed to be stuck and didn't know what to say!

On the court, Li Ang's shooting action was completed very quickly. Almost in an instant, the football he kicked was already roaring and falling suddenly while rising!

Neuer was really panicked now!

His retracement speed is actually not slow at all, but compared to the speed of the football falling towards the goal, his save is still a beat slower!

Suddenly, Neuer felt as if he had returned to three years ago.

In the noisy National Stadium in Warsaw, he was so helpless when faced with Balotelli who came to attack alone but chose to blast the goal with heavy artillery!

After waving his hands in vain and making a final pounce, Neuer couldn't help but close his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, the crisp sound of football rubbing against the net came to his ears!

And the overwhelming waves of crazy cheers!

After scoring this 36-meter-long shot, Li Ang excitedly took off his shirt, rushed to the sidelines and raised his arms to receive the admiration and cheers from all the Chelsea fans!

This moment is like going back in time!

In front of Noelle, the devil has arrived again!

The third update may be after midnight. I’m really sorry. Foodies will try to complete the third update before one o’clock in the morning.
