Chapter 598 The Road to Wales ([-])
The drone took a bird's-eye view of the Allianz Arena at 8:[-] p.m. like a red fluorescent flying saucer.
Several stretching highways are like black dragons, and the Allianz Stadium at the end of the dragon is like a pearl and the eyes of the dragon.
The night scene is so beautiful, the beauty is so intoxicating, this is the beauty of Munich, the beauty of Allianz, and the beauty of football.
After a brief night scene, the camera cuts back to the scene, and the players from both sides are already following the referee, ready to enter the field.
The venue for the 2017 UEFA Champions League final is the "Cardiff Millennium Stadium" in Wales, so there is a small gate at the entrance of the players, which says "Wales Road". After this game, the first team to enter the final will be born.
Way to Wales?
Bell turned around and looked, it was his homeland, and when Bell looked sideways, Li Qiao also glanced, standing on the stage of the semi-finals, who wouldn't want to go further?
As the passionate Champions League theme song played, the players of the two teams stood on both sides of the referee. It was the familiar melody again, but I never got tired of listening to it.
Ronaldo closed his eyes, maybe he was thinking about how to break through Bayern's defense and how to score a goal. When he opened his eyes, Li Qiao stood in front of him and smiled at him, a routine in the pre-match tribute.
Ronaldo extended his hand and smiled at Li Qiao. After the last game, the two exchanged jerseys, but this does not mean that they are friends. Ronaldo thinks that Li Qiao is probably his biggest competitor after Messi.
European football is likely to change from the duo of Messi and Ronaldo to Messi, Ronaldo and Li Qiao. Later facts prove that Ronaldo's vision is very accurate, but that is another story.
After picking sides, Real Madrid kicked off first in the first half.
The fans couldn't sit down at all at this time, perhaps because they were excited, most of the Bayern fans were standing, and they were shouting "Bayern".
"Bayern",
"Bayern",
"Bayern",
Bayern fans' desire for the Champions League is far stronger than that of Real Madrid. After all, Real Madrid's last taste of the Champions League is not far away, but for Bayern, the taste of the championship is already a bit blurred.
Finally, the whistle blew, and the second round of the highly anticipated Champions League semi-final began. After this game, only one side could leave with a smile.
*****
Real Madrid's starting lineup for this game is exactly the same as the previous game.
Goalkeeper - Keylor Navas
Defenders - Carvajal, Pepe, Ramos, Marcelo
Midfielders - Kroos, Casemiro, Modric
Forwards - Bale, Benzema, Ronaldo
Zidane doesn't need to keep it, and it's impossible to keep it. Bayern's side, Sammer's starting lineup is the same,
Goalkeeper - Manuel Neuer
Defenders - Alaba, Boateng, Benatia, Lahm
Midfielders - Javi Martinez, Vidal
Midfielders - Costa, Muller, Joe Lee
Striker - Lewandowski
After the start of the game, the first shot was made by Real Madrid. After Ronaldo broke through the bottom line, he passed an inverted triangle pass back to the penalty area. Kroos, who was waiting there, pushed and shot. The ball flew to the goal against the lawn. Neuer leaned over and held the ball firmly.
After taking the ball, Neuer throws the ball to launch an attack. Neuer's hand throw can be thrown across the half-court, which can be said to be extremely powerful.
Of course, the direction of the ball's flight was to find Li Qiao, but Real Madrid listed Li Qiao as the number one threat in this game, and their defense against Li Qiao was strengthened a lot. Casemiro came to stop the ball halfway, but Li Qiao didn't get the ball.
5 minutes before the opening, Real Madrid's offensive was so fierce that people mistakenly thought it was at the Bernabeu instead of Allianz.
The characteristic of Real Madrid is fast, and they need to score at least one goal, so Real Madrid's offense is full of pressure.
But after a season of intensive training, Bayern has become one of the best running teams in Europe, especially the two midfielders. Therefore, most of Real Madrid's shots are long-range shots from outside the penalty area. It is not easy to score into the penalty area.
Bell kicked an elevator ball and was saved by Neuer to the bottom line. As Real Madrid's offense became stronger and stronger, Summer was also a little worried.
When Real Madrid won a corner kick, both Pepe and Ramos would come up to assist, especially Ramos, whose header from Shui Ye is a must in today's football.
We all still remember the wonderful moment of the savior at the last moment when Ramos shook his head in the Champions League final.
Kroos placed the ball in the corner flag area, Real Madrid players looked for positions in the penalty area, Bayern players did not dare to be careless, one by one man-to-man, everyone was optimistic about the players they wanted to defend.
It was his compatriot Martinez who defended Ramos.
What kind of sparks will be created when two Spaniards get together?At least Ramos and Martinez are smiling, especially Ramos.
Kroos raised his hand, indicating that it was time to kick off, and the penalty area began to move around. Everyone was fighting for positions. Martinez opened his hands, ready to cover Ramos, but the latter unexpectedly did not rush forward, but ran outside the penalty area.
To be more precise, it was a roundabout run, a fan-shaped run, so that Martinez was caught off guard.
When Martinez reacted, he was blocked by someone in front of him, and he could only watch Ramos escape from his defense.
Kroos kicked the ball in an outward arc, that is, the ball flew in the direction outside the penalty area. This kind of corner kick is rare in today's football. Now the mainstream corner kick is to turn into the goal.
The ball seems to have been designed to fly to the top of Ramos' head, and Ramos also jumped high, with the running inertia to push the ball towards the back corner of the goal.
There were all people in front of the goal, Neuer's line of sight was blocked, and when the ball flew to the back point, Neuer made a sideways save at the fastest speed.
The ball got into the back corner of the goal, the ball went in! !
Real Madrid moved back a goal! !
After Ramos scored a goal, he made a domineering kneeling on the sideline, which was very arrogant. Now Real Madrid is leading, and the attack was successful, and the way of scoring is also very domineering.
The Allianz Arena was a little quieter, and while a goal wasn't enough to frustrate the fans, it was a little depressing.
At this moment, when the camera turned, Zidane put Carvajal on his back and whispered something. Although he covered his mouth, he could guess that it must have something to do with Li Qiao.
I have to say that Zidane is a good coach who is good at learning. He suffered a big loss from Li Qiao in the last game. In this game, he will make great efforts to prevent Li Qiao from dying.
*****
At the re-kick-off, Sammer asked the players to speed up the pass and strengthen the running, so Sammer came to the sidelines to direct the game.
Back then, Dortmund's trick against Real Madrid was to run to the opponent's death. It was not easy, but it worked, and Sammer's strategy was the same.
Control violence with violence, play fast with fast, the rhythm of offense and defense on the court changes very quickly, and the fans are very happy.
Bayern took a shot in the frontcourt. Navas took the ball and drove it to the frontcourt. Ronaldo soon completed the shot, and then Neuer threw the ball to attack. After the midfield pass, Costa shot from the corner of the penalty area.
In this way, within 10 minutes, the two sides basically did not need a midfielder, they passed the ball directly from the backcourt, took the ball in the frontcourt and adjusted it slightly before shooting.
This kind of attack is very beautiful, but it is very tiring. It will not last long, and the pace of the game will soon slow down.
In this BBC game, Ronaldo and Bell worked hard, but Benzema seems to have disappeared, and his position is also very strange. Originally, he should be in front of Ronaldo and Bell, but now his position is similar to that of the attacking midfielder.
Sammer ignored Benzema, and Sammer was upset about his negligence five minutes later.
Modric advanced with the ball in midfield. After halftime, Magic Flute pretended to look ahead, but Ronaldo and Bale were closely watched by Bayern, but when everyone thought Modric would pass the ball to the striker, Magic Flute flicked his ankle and passed the ball to Benzema.
There was a defensive vacuum in front of Bayern's penalty area, and Benzema began to accelerate. This is the way the center retreats to get the ball. It is very simple, but sometimes it works.
Vidal stepped forward to defend, and Benzema speeded up and waded through. In this way, the space was even bigger. Martinez made another pounce, but still did not pounce the ball.
At this time, Boateng, who was defending Ronaldo, made up the middle to help defend, but Benzema was too fast, and it was too late, and Benzema rushed 30 meters, and he was exhausted. He saw Bell on the right and passed the ball decisively.
The moment Bell took the ball, Lahm shoveled over. If Bell shot directly at this time, Lahm could just block it, but Bell didn't do so.
Bale's footwork was terrifyingly accurate, the ball went straight to the near corner of the goal, Neuer was beyond his reach, the ball scored, and Real Madrid had already led 2-0 at Allianz.
*****
Real Madrid is celebrating, but Bayern fans are heartbroken. The last time Real Madrid was a guest at Allianz, they scored 4-0. Is history going to repeat itself?
In fact, few people mentioned the 0-4 game before the game. Everyone felt that Bayern is not the same now, but the current score reminds everyone of that fiasco.
At the time of that disastrous defeat, many people in the Bayern team were not there now, Li Qiao was not there, Vidal was not there, Lewandowski was not there, but Sammer was on the sidelines at the time, and he must not let history repeat itself.
"Cheer up, think about the sweat we have shed in the past year, the road we have run, and the courage you still insist on finishing the run while lying on the ground. We are not the Bayern of the past," Summer shouted towards the stadium, although no one heard what he shouted.
Real Madrid's celebration was crazy. On the way to promotion, they reversed once. It was Wolfsburg from the Bundesliga.
Zidane ran towards his players, only this time his trousers were not torn, and the fans booed sporadically as they watched Real Madrid play wild at Allianz.
And almost everyone's eyes are on one person, and that is Li Qiao. It has almost become the consensus of Bayern to find Li Qiao if it is difficult.
