The opening partner Harland swept the European powers

Time ran out and just four days later, the Champions League semi-final between Manchester City and Bayern was staged.

Before the match, Guardiola and Frick shook hands.

Speaking of which, one of the two is a world famous coach, the other is not so famous, Frick's coaching career began at Hoffenheim.

It was 2000, Frick stayed with the team for 5 years, then moved to the German national team and worked as an assistant coach for 8 years!

Then came to Bayern, started as an assistant coach, stayed in this position for only half a year, and then took office in November 2019 and became Bayern's manager!

Today!

The young and bold Frick has his own ideas, and his formation for this game is also very interesting.

Bayern, 4231

: goalkeeper:

Neuer.

Defenders: Davis, Alaba, Boateng, Kimmich.

Back: Gretzka, Thiago.

Forward: Sane, Thomas Müller, Gnabry.

Forward: Lewandowski.

At this time, Thiago had not yet gone to Liverpool, Kimmich had not got the desired midfield position, shining on the wing, and Lewandowski and Bayern were not so unpleasant.

The Bayern bench is also very luxurious, Juler, Koeman, Coutinho, Pavard, Tolisso, Perisic, Lucas Ellandez, etc., none of them are unknown!

Manchester City, 433

: goalkeeper:

Ederson.

Defenders: Joao Cancelo, Eric Garcia, De Ligt and Kyle Walker.

Midfielders: Gundogan, De Jong, De Bruyne.

Forwards: Chen Feng, Haaland, Mahrez.

After the failure of the last experiment on Manchester City's side, Guardiola did not risk using other tactics and chose to return to 433 to deal with the challenge of the Bundesliga hegemony!

......

In fact, at this time, Thiago has already shown a downward trend, but it is not obvious.

Look at the chance in the 4th minute, Thiago missed and sent the ball out!

De Jong broke the ball in midfield and sent a long pass!

Haaland single-handed!

Even if he faced the world-class goalkeeper Neuer, the demon was not afraid, and after entering the box, the crisp and sharp burst made Neuer have more experience in vain.

Manchester City get off to a fantastic start 1-0!

At the right time, grasping the opportunity to get your hands on it, this is the smell of top shooters, it can only be called perfect.

At the same time, Haaland also scored his 12th Champions League goal!

Trailing Bayern, who were behind, began to fight back and launched two counter-attacks in the 10th and 16th minutes, starting with a 10-minute attacking opportunity.

Gretzka and Gretzka played to kick the wall to cooperate, and in the end, Gretzka's shot missed the right position!

In the 16th minute, Sane played by himself after dunking the defender in front of goal!

Ederson, Sane's former teammate, is familiar with the German striker's insider angle, blocking it in advance and steadily confiscating the ball.

However, one minute later, Bayern's attack returned.

The ball tossed and turned to the right flank with Gnabry, and the German striker managed to cut inside after resisting a multi-man defence outside the box!

Boom -

kick up and blast!

Bayern equalised and Gnabry, who was in great form this season, stepped up when the team was in crisis, saved the impetuous team and dealt Manchester City a heavy blow!

In the 25th minute, Bayern's attack continued, advantageous Gnabry, tried to volley vigorously from outside the box, I have to say, this feel is really good.

Fortunately, Edson is in good shape and won the ball steadily!

For the next 8 minutes, the two teams were safe and sound, until the 33rd minute, when Bayern Munich went to the next city!

It starts with Sane.

Sane left City with complaints, he was not convinced by some of the decisions Pep Guardiola made at the time, so today he came with a task.

On the left wing, Sane swayed left and right, connected several people, and let Manchester City's rear siren sound!

Then, cross to the door!

Lewandowski arrived, and the tackle was blocked by Edson!

Edson thought it would be fine, but in a scuffle, the ball rolled to Sane's feet, and the German striker was overjoyed and directly blindfolded!

Bayern

turned the game around and led Manchester City 2-1!

Good guy, Sane, who finished the goal, raised his eyebrows, celebrated so much that he was almost ready to rush to Guardiola to celebrate.

Fortunately, it was stopped by his teammates in time, but the smile could not be taken back.

Guardiola was upset and changed tactics directly in the second half.

The attacking suppression of 433 began to be reflected in the second half, and Chen Feng and Mahrez's continuous internal cuts made Bayern's defense exhausted!

In the 64th minute of the game, Manchester City's opportunity came, and this opportunity was created by Chen Feng alone!

【Inner Burst】!!

It's just so arrogant, it's just so unreasonable, pulling the two teams back to the same running line!

"Come again!"

"Come on!"

The two teams each shouted different slogans, and in the short amount of time, they launched their own stormy attacks.

Bayern's side relies more on Muller's scheduling, Lewandowski's forward insertion, Gnabry and Sane's breakthrough....

Manchester City's side, relying more on De Bruyne's penetrating passes, Chen Feng's connection and attack, Haaland reckless to the end...

However, the strength of both teams is similar!

So, until the end of overtime, there was no winner or loser!

The game enters the penalty shootout!

Bayern first penalty:

the first free throw was not Lewandowski, but Kimmich, this ball was predicted by Ederson in the right direction, firmly saved, Bayern suffered a disaster!

Manchester City's first free throw was Haaland, the strongest person on penalties, steady penalty!

Bayern's second penalty was Muller, the angle of this ball was very tricky, and it was sent into the goal by Erwa!

Manchester City's second penalty was Mahrez, straight into the middle and scored!

Bayern's third penalty was Sane, withstood the pressure and went in!

Manchester City's third penalty was Kevin De Bruyne, also scored!

The penalty shootout is Manchester City 3-2 Bayern!

Then Bayern's fourth penalty was Gnabry, and the German striker, who performed well today, also scored a steady penalty, dragging the game back.

Manchester City's fourth penalty Gundogan hit the bottom left corner and scored, Neuer was out of par today.

Finally, and the most crucial penalty!

Lewandowski is coming, Polish shooter!

Power!

Then, the picture turned, Chen Feng put the ball on the penalty spot, exhaled a few deep breaths, and smashed it fiercely, the ball was like an arrow off the string.

Oh –

the ball went in!

Beep –

a penalty shoot-out resulted in a win and defeat, and in the end, Manchester City defeated Bayern Munich 5-4 and advanced to the Champions League final with their heads held high, meeting Paris Saint-Germain.

After the game, the audience cried, some excited, some unwilling....
