Step by Step to Win

After the defeat in the Cup, Guardiola's explanation was still endorsed by many media. To prepare for the Champions League early, the media is absolutely very supportive of such a plan. Although Bayern has already lost in a panic during the Cup, thinking about the future possible Champions League defending, the media is now full of praise for Guardiola's choice.

Guardiola has not been embarrassed by too many people. After all, as a world-class head coach, Guardiola has always had a good relationship with the media. He has never been a coach who likes to work against the media, so in many cases, the media is willing to say good things to him. Faster, losing the cup is really not a big deal for Bayern. For the coach who has just led the team to win the league championship, the Bundesliga media is still full of support.

The media did not suspect that Guardiola was just making excuses for his failure. After all, the Bundesliga media all want to see Bayern win the Champions League again, and they are also willing to believe in Guardiola. Their thoughts are just as strong as the Bundesliga media want to see Wolfsburg's successful victory over Atletico Madrid, making the Bundesliga team achieve victory in the Champions League final for two consecutive years.

Last year's Champions League final, Bayern and Dortmund met in the final, which made the German media extremely proud. And this year's Bundesliga seems to have the possibility of copying last year's success. Bayern and Wolfsburg are now the semi-finals of the Champions League, and the media also hope to see them once again defeat the La Liga teams and fight again in the Champions League final.

It is true that Wolfsburg seems to be inferior to Dortmund, but Atletico Madrid is also less famous than Real Madrid. Since Wolfsburg can come here all the way as a dark horse, it is not impossible for a black horse to be in the end. For these two teams in the Champions League, they are still continuing to add glory to the Bundesliga. The media is also very much looking forward to seeing these two teams achieve greater success.

It is not only the media who have such expectations for continuing to create brilliance in the Champions League. The Wolfsburg players are also extremely looking forward to this. In fact. After the end of the game with Bayern, the players of Wolfsburg have devoted themselves to preparing for the upcoming Champions League game. Even the remaining four rounds of the league were completely forgotten-at the last moment, Wolfsburg chose to abandon the league and chose the Champions League as their goal.

This choice is due to the fact that the Champions League is indeed more important, and on the other hand, their choice is also related to the fact that the remaining leagues are not easy to play.

The last four rounds of Wolfsburg. The opponents are Hamburg, Freiburg, Stuttgart-Mönchen, and if you really want to win these games, it will not be particularly easy. The current league rankings of the first three teams are 14,15,16, even the highest ranked Freiburg, have not escaped the shadow of the relegation zone, in order to relegation. They will definitely work hard in the game. The last team, Borussia, is now sixth in the league, for them. A place in the European war will also make them very excited, and it is impossible to give up easily.

The opponent's pursuit will make these teams all become very good and tough. After all, no team can sit back and watch their team relegated. And Wolfsburg, which is destined to have no league champions, would be a bit boring if he fights hard with these teams in the league. There is no need for his own team to go further, and they have to spend a lot of effort to deal with the relegation team. This is also quite an inauthentic thing. Maybe it will make the two clubs feud. The Wolf Castle was not prepared to do this either.

In contrast, they are still striving for victory in the Champions League. It seems more valuable. Therefore, Wolfsburg also made an early decision: there is no need to fight for league results. The second and third are all acceptable. These two results are not much different for them anyway, as long as they can get results in the Champions League.

The results of the semi-finals are actually satisfactory results for Wolfsburg. Being able to enter the semi-finals has achieved the goal that many teams dream of, and further things are originally very difficult, but now that it has reached this position, it is a pity not to try it.

Therefore, after defeating Bayern and confirming his successful qualifying for the German Cup, Wolfsburg has also put his energy on the Champions League during this period. Although they are not like Bayern, they can abandon the cup for the Champions League, but at least for the Champions League, they are still willing to see how to deal with their opponents.

During this time, what they mainly do is to watch the Atletico Madrid match in their team and learn all the information about the opponent they are about to face.

And after understanding, they also found that this opponent is indeed not very good to deal with.

Their opponents are very strong. This is something they have known a long time ago. Atletico Madrid's league results this season are very good. Now the 34th round of La Liga has passed. Atletico Madrid leads the league second with Barcelona by 4 points, and overwhelming rivals Real Madrid by 5 points, leading the league , Such results have long let the players of Wolfsburg know that they are not easy to cope with.

It is not easy for any team to beat the two teams in the Western Super League, especially the current Western Super League duo. It seems that there is no sign of decline: it is true that compared to the two teams in the previous years. By the time they reach three-figure points, they seem to have regressed a bit, but as long as they are still leading the league's fourth-place Athletic Bilbao by nearly 20 points, we know that they are still overwhelming in La Liga. Advantage. And while they are still able to kick out such results, Atletico Madrid can keep pace with them, which has to make people admire their strength.

How difficult it is to compete with the super strong team, Wolfsburg knows, after all, there is such a behemoth in their league. Last season, Bayern's center was injured for half a season, and they kept pace with them. This season, after Bayern's staffing has been further strengthened, it has easily thrown away more than a dozen league points from Wolfsburg. Competing with such a team, on the one hand, the opponent's excellent strength makes it almost impossible for your team to make mistakes in any game, and on the other hand, you also need to have a strong psychological endurance to be able to keep going all the way. .

Now it seems that Atletico Madrid seems to have done both of these very well, otherwise, they would not be the league's first. Over the past season, Wolfsburg has also heard a lot of rumors about Atletico. Whether it is their top goalkeeper Courtois, or their excellent forward Diego Costa, or their midfielder Cork, coach Simeone and others, this time has always been extremely eye-catching names. , Wolf Castle wants to know it is very difficult. As for the strength of this team, Wolfsburg wants to take a closer look.

In the past few days, they have been watching videos in their team, and they have learned a lot about Atletico Madrid.

"First of all, we have to admit that our opponent is indeed very strong. It is definitely not accidental that they can become the top of the La Liga list. Look at their defense, this is really good, such a guy will be a good opponent. ."

After studying the video of Atletico Madrid, the players of Wolfsburg are also talking about their feelings. As for this opponent, Mandzukic first expressed his views, and his views also made the surrounding teammates nod and say yes.

Indeed, if there is anything about Atletico Madrid that the players care most about, it is the monkey team's defense.

Atletico Madrid’s tactics really make Wolfsburg feel a bit familiar: they are very similar to Dortmund in terms of high position press. Their siege is as sharp and will cause a lot of trouble to their opponents, but after the frontcourt’s failure, they The level of defense and defensive strength of the defensive retreat is very similar to Bayern's level last season. They also grasp the level of defense and position very well.

Their defense seems to have successfully combined the advantages of the other two Bundesliga teams, and this defensive feature is also amazing: as old opponents, the players of Wolfsburg know very well that Dortmund's counter-grab is excellent. To a large extent, thanks to their players' excellent cooperation in the frontcourt, this also makes their positional defense ability slightly insufficient. Bayern’s positional defense is of course very good, but in comparison, in order to retreat in time ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, their frontcourt pressing force is also inferior to Dortmund. And want to make the frontcourt counter grab and backcourt positional defense can have such a perfect connection, which is not achieved by Bayern and Dortmund, and how much effort it takes to have this kind of defensive ability, Wolfsburg can also imagine . With this kind of defense, Atletico is really strong and terrible.

For a long time, the defense of La Liga teams has not been particularly praised. Compared with the generally good offensive skills of La Liga teams, La Liga teams rarely get unanimous recognition in the football field in terms of defense. Even if Barcelona are at their strongest, their defense is not top-notch, and Real Madrid's defense has become the laughing stock of football all over the world from time to time. Compared with their two opponents in the same league, Atletico Madrid's current defensive performance is simply surprising. Such a defense is simply top-notch.

Wolfsburg has already encountered Chelsea in the previous Champions League games, but even Chelsea, compared to this Atletico defensive, can not be said to be more winning. Chelsea attaches great importance to the interception and sweep of the mid-length. Their defensive midfielder allows them to become extremely good bones in the face of any enemy. However, in terms of defensive hierarchy and overall formation, they are indeed inferior to this Atletico Madrid.

Compared with backcourt sweeps, the advantage of this more integrated defensive tactic is that they can better balance offense and defense-and this is what this Atletico does well. (To be continued.)
