The Green Superstar - Chapter 534
When Bayern Munich and Manchester City met in the Champions League semi-finals, Fleet Street thought it was an opportunity for Guardiola to “retaliate” against Bayern Munich.
This view is very strange.
Simply nothing to look for.
If there is no topic, then create a topic.
When Tang Hong hugged Lewandowski and Neuer before the game, he said to Neuer: “Suddenly I feel that the times are changing rapidly and Bayern Munich is about to become unknown to me.”
Neuer said helplessly: “I always feel that you have something in your words. If we stay the same, do we want you to repeat the previous game?”
Tang Hong shrugged, before talking about this topic, he said to Neuer: “You shave more and you are more handsome if you are clean.”
Neuer touched his short beard, and almost nodded.
I have to say that among the opponents of these years, Neuer must say that Tang Hong is the one who hates most, but it is Tang Hong who can’t bear any hatred.
At least Tang Hong’s professionalism on the court, as well as his personal experience from the Portuguese Premier League to the English Premier League, from the Bundesliga to the French Ligue 1 and now to Manchester City, Tang Hong’s personal achievements and experience are indeed heartfelt admiration.
He engraved his name in the history of this era, the most shining.
Neuer belongs to a person who witnessed it with his own eyes. He is not an audience, but Tang Hong’s opponent.
Want to be crowned king in Europe, Bayern Munich is not too bad luck to always meet Tang Hong, but the competitiveness of the decision.
If Tang Hong was not a frequent visitor to the Champions League semi-finals and finals, he would not have the four Golden Globes now, nor would he write a series of records.
The players of the two teams walked into the Allianz Arena without spectators. The atmosphereless game really did not match the level of the Champions League semi-finals.
Manchester City started 433.
Goalkeeper: Edson.
Defenders: Kyle Walker, Stones, Laporte, Mendy.
Midfielders: Rodri, De Bruyne, Fernandinho.
Forwards: David Silva, Tang Hong, Sterling.
Bayern Munich started 343.
Goalkeeper: Neuer.
Defenders: Alfonso Davis, Boateng, Alaba.
Midfielder: Gretzka, Thiago, Muller, Kimmich.
Forwards: Gnabry, Lewandowski, Perisic.
Just look at Bayern Munich’s lineup, the first time you will feel strange.
But the problem that Bayern Munich is facing now is the unbalanced lineup, strong offense and weak defense.
Having to use players in the corresponding positions to create a plausible system is prone to problems that are too obvious.
Frick did a good job in fighting the fire halfway, the main reason was that he didn’t set the 433 formation according to the book, and adopted the method of encircling Wei and saving Zhao.
There is definitely a problem with Bayern Munich’s back line, but it is impossible to make up for without the right players. It would be better to play a strong midfielder to replace the defense.
The last slaughter of Barcelona was a classic battle.
The midfielder continued to oppress the counter-grab, fast break, and directly played the originator of the pass so that he could not even kick the ball!
When the game started, Manchester City did not ask Dafei to attack Bayern Munich’s defense.
David Silva looks like a winger, but he is actually more of a midfielder.
Bayern Munich’s midfield interception and anti-grab ability is indeed excellent, Manchester City directly gave up the pass and control, came up with the quick, simple and direct British attack.
The ability to pass in the midfield and the backcourt will never delay the coordination of the position, because the more you pass and cooperate in the midfield, the more it looks like you are playing with fire!
Don’t say Guardiola knows the urinary nature of his own defense, and the players on the court also know it well.
Sterling pulled the side to the limit, and Tang Hong waited for the opportunity in the front.
Tang Hong is mostly watched by Kimmich, with Bayern Munich’s three-back in front, but as long as Sterling can successfully cope with the wing and start to advance forward, Manchester City’s offensive threat will come out.
The two teams continue to pose threats to the opponent’s defense. Bayern Munich’s midfielder quickly passed and cooperated, and the two wingers made an inward breakthrough, which brought huge pressure on Manchester City’s defense line, which then formed the threat of side-to-center coordination. Bayern Munich The offensive is in full swing.
For Manchester City, even Tang Hong and Sterling are enough to put pressure on Bayern Munich’s defense.
Tang Hong has been acting as a fulcrum for Sterling in the early stage of the game. After receiving the ball, he controlled the ball to attract firepower. Sterling moved inward, he passed the ball, and Sterling attacked!
After three years of playing for Manchester City, Tang Hong can become the core of the team, but not only depends on his personal scoring ability, but also his excellent team consciousness makes his teammates happy to follow his rhythm.
In the 27th minute of the game, Bayern Munich scored a continuous attack by Gnabry.
Bayern Munich lead Manchester City 1-0.
Guardiola watched Bayern Munich’s performance in a real shock.
Logically speaking, Perisic and Gnabry are definitely not as good as Robben and Ribery back then!
However, Bayern Munich’s thick-to-fine, hard-to-thin play style makes their wing attack particularly strong!
Looking at it now, his coaching mentality at Bayern Munich was indeed wrong!
You know that the Bayern Munich midfielder lineup was stronger than it is now!
Schweinsteiger, Kroos, Alonso, Thiago, Muller and more.
Bayern Munich has lost its wolfishness in the pursuit of transmission and control!
Flick, who not many people expected, reactivated the lost blood of Bayern Munich.
Bayern Munich, who led the score, did not change their play, nor did they have a choice to change!
Because once they lose the sharpness of offense and oppression, their offensive threat will definitely decrease first, and secondly, the drawbacks of the defense line will be exposed after losing the initiative!
They must maintain offensive intensity and pressure.
Manchester City began to quietly change the attack.
When Tang Hong has no threat of shooting in the frontcourt, Bayern Munich will most likely think that Tang Hong lacks De Bruyne’s feed at the center position, and the opportunity to fire is difficult.
Looking at it head-on, this is the success of Bayern Munich’s defense.
But in fact they did not realize that Tang Hong was just waiting for the right opportunity.
In the 41st minute of the game, when Tang Hong knocked the ball across the right in the frontcourt, David Silva quickly followed up. Alaba was ready to intercept frontally, but David Silva would knock back diagonally. .
De Bruyne made a diagonal long pass in the center zone to shift the offensive to the left.
Sterling rushed to the left and cut the ball as soon as he stopped. Alfonso Davis consciously blocked his inner cutting line, but Sterling passed the ball at this time.
When the football rolled to Tang Hong’s feet, at this time, he met in front of the penalty zone line, stopped the ball on the spot and then made a gesture to pass the ball to the Stirling line. The entire pass has been made, but his left foot is in front of the football. Flicker half a circle.
After Boateng’s center of gravity was skewed a step, he realized that he was being swayed, but Tang Hong had already turned around and walked the arc to the ball!
Kimmich stretched his leg to intercept at the moment he started, and Tang Hong slightly provoked the ball to the right rib of the penalty area when he waded with his right foot.
Passing by Kimmich and rushing into the restricted area to form a single shot!
This set of back-to-back faux-shaking operations made Boateng completely unable to keep up!
It’s just not as embarrassed as when Messi fell to the ground directly after a breakthrough.
Facing Neuer in the penalty area, Tang Hong volleyed first!
The football goes straight to the far corner of the goal!
The ball speed is too fast, Neuer’s save action is obviously slow.
Manchester City 1:1 Bayern Munich!
The Bayern Munich players are particularly lost.
Watching Tang Hong being surrounded by Manchester City generals celebrating the goal, they were neither convinced nor reconciled.
But this is the ability of a superstar!
If you really dare to let Tang Hong use full firepower like Bayern Munich did bombing indiscriminately, I am afraid that Bayern Munich would have been beaten as a tortoise.
There are not many opportunities, just seize once or twice.
Manchester City played more restrained and rational today.
The two teams ended in a draw in the first half and changed sides to fight in the second half.
Bayern Munich continued to attack wildly, and indeed the Manchester City defensive line plus two midfielders to play almost in a barrel formation.
Bayern Munich’s offensive is booming, but unexpectedly the fire in the backyard is exceptionally sudden!
When David Silva received De Bruyne’s precise pass from the right front of the field, he dribbled to the center and cut two steps inward and sent a diagonal pass.
Tang Hong took the initiative to hit the ball with his right foot in front of the penalty area and immediately turned around and drove into the penalty area!
Boateng once again lost Tang Hong!
When Manchester City’s attack line is rolled out to contain Bayern Munich’s defense line, even if there is no frantic attack, as long as Tang Hong creates an environment for singles Boateng, then Tang Hong has absolute confidence to hard-eat his opponent!
When Tang Hong faced Neuer on the right side of the penalty area, he pulled the ball with his left foot towards the bottom line, and Neuer hurriedly tried to block the angle of Tang Hong’s empty goal.
But he didn’t expect Tang Hong to pull the ball with his left foot and then the CHOP change of direction with the ball behind his right foot!
After the two staggered, Neuer was unable to save any more, Tang Hong grabbed the ball with his left foot and shot into the empty goal before Kimmich was in place!
The Bayern Munich generals are like a bolt from the blue!
They were unbelievable about Tang Hong’s performance!
It is no exaggeration to say that Bayern Munich is the ceiling of the Bundesliga’s combat power, but none of them can destroy the defense line as easily as Tang Hong!
Giants duel, superstars decide success or failure!
Guardiola was determined.
The next game will be better.
As long as you seize the opportunity of a fast break, you can break Bayern Munich’s defense!
Bayern Munich have substituted one after another to add vitality to the team’s frontcourt.
Coutinho, Tolisso and Koman have appeared one after another.
Manchester City is standing still.
In the 75th minute of the game, when Tang Hong started to dribble and break through from midfield, Kimmich did not dare to be big and retreated all the way to the penalty area line with Boateng. Alaba formed a three-person defense to resist Tang Hong.
But when Tang Hong was in front of him, he teleported diagonally into the left rib area of the penalty area.
Sterling inside cut an offside and successfully formed an excellent chance to score. This time he did not play happy football again, and simply sent the ball to the far corner of the goal!
Manchester City lead Bayern Munich 3:1.
Sterling smiled and rushed to hug Tang Hong, Manchester City all rushed to celebrate the goal together!
Almost the overall situation is set!
