March 21.

Mönchengladbach's home court, Prussian Park Stadium.

"CCTV, viewers, you are watching the semi-finals of the 2011-12 German Cup, with Borussia Mönchengladbach playing against Bayern Munich at home..."

Because Duan Yixuan used too much force in the commentary of the previous league game, he Wei, who was mainly involved in La Liga and Champions League commentary, temporarily replaced his job:

"The two sides basically followed the main lineup of the previous round of the league, and only changed in individual positions. For Borussia Mönchengladbach, their right forward Hermann returned from injury and sat on the bench; while Bayern, Long Shute, who had just staged a seven-star winning streak in the league, also sat on the bench... This should be the rotation taken by Heinx to prepare for the devil schedule of the next week's double matches?"

"That's right," the guest he partnered with was also replaced by Xu Yang. "Next, Bayern will usher in the quarter-finals against Marseille in the Champions League, and Long Shute will also challenge Ged Muller's league goal record. In such a less important German Cup match, he should get a proper rest, so that other teammates can get a certain chance to play..."

Their explanations are very reasonable, but Long Shute doesn't think so.

What does rest mean?

In terms of physical fitness, he is the well-deserved number one in Bayern - a data of up to 21 is enough to explain everything.

Even though he has added some enhanced shots to his extra training events recently, the reason has not reached the point where he affects his official game.

Robben, Ribery, Gomez, Ram, Neuer, Muller, Gustavo, Boateng, Bad, Alaba...

These teammates who played with me three days ago all played continuously today, but they were the only ones who were placed on the bench!

How could he bear this?

Say it, Eunuch Hai.

Is it you, Joseph Heinx, who has become a little ecstatic recently, or do you think I, Long Ritian, can't hold on to the knife?

-

The one who replaced Long Shute was Heinx's beloved player Tony Cross.

Judging from his personal performance, compared with previous games, Kros' enthusiasm on both offense and defense has improved significantly, and even his disliked frontcourt pressing is done well.

Yes, Cross is no fool.

In the past, no one competed with him. Not only did he get a stable starting opportunity, he could even squeeze Robben, who was in poor form, to the bench, but now... the situation is completely different.

7 goals in a single game, Mr. Golden Ball, UEFA's best player...

What a monster that competes with Cross... is such a monster!

In addition, the monster has extremely outstanding physical fitness. It is said that he runs more than 18,000 in 90 minutes. Unless he commits an extremely malicious foul, he rarely gets injured. As long as there is no national team competition, he can keep playing at any time...

If Cross doesn’t work hard, even if his own father comes to be the head coach, he will not have his own position!

-

"Bang!"

Kroos used a long shot to set off Bayern Munich's offensive frenzy in the 5th minute, but unfortunately his shot hit the post accurately, a slight difference from the goal.

Afterwards, Bayern quickly turned away and completely controlled the ball.

While attacking, they did not defend and defend, and the back line was particularly cautious when assisting forward. Captain Ram personally guarded Borussia Mönchengladbach's offensive core Reus, so it was difficult for the Rockets to find an opportunity in the counterattack.

"Almost from the beginning of the game, Bayern has firmly grasped the rhythm. Borussia Mönchengladbach could only defend passively, and there were only one or two chances to counterattack..."

During the intermission, He Wei analyzed the situation like this:

"In the whole first half, Bayern gained an overwhelming advantage. Their possession rate was as high as 71%, and their shooting was even 10 more than their opponents. They threatened the ball, scored the penalty area, passed and accuracy were far higher than their opponents, but..."

He paused for a moment: "The score is still 0-0..."

"Pulse possession is important, but it is definitely not the most important thing, especially when the opponent is firmly defending."

Guest Xu Yang caught this topic:

"Even Barcelona often has a 70% ball possession rate, but when faced with a situation where the Iron Barrel formation is helpless, the head coach's ability to command on the spot is often tested..."

Then the two suddenly changed their mind and talked about the La Liga stadium they were more familiar with.

"Real Madrid has already led Barcelona by 6 points in the league. Ten days later, the second national derby will be staged, and it will soon become a battle of Tianwangshan that determines the league championship!"

"Yes, Barcelona doesn't seem to have come out of the shadow of last season's Champions League defeat. In addition, Guardiola's refusal to renew his contract was revealed some time ago, so their locker room is not quiet..."

There is no way, two Real Madrid fans meet together, and if you don’t complain about Barcelona... I’m afraid it’s definitely not normal.

-

When the game reached 75 minutes later, there was a burst of warm applause from the stands at the Prussian Park Stadium.

That was the encouragement given by home fans for the wonderful performance of Mönchengladbach's players.

Heinx couldn't sit still.

His Bayern was obviously in a collective weakness after the second half, Robben, Ribery, Gomez, Ram... The running of these players was obviously not as active as in the first half.

This may be a matter of course.

In the previous two weeks, they played five consecutive games, one every two or three days, and the consumption of physical fitness can be imagined.

After all, not everyone is as physically close to the limits of human beings as Long Shute, not to mention that Robben and Ribery have always been fragile physically towards glass...

When Bayern's physical fitness could not keep up, Borussia Mönchengladbach's counterattack naturally rebounded. Alanggo, Hermann, Hank and Reus shot four arrows at the same time, and used three quick advances to tear Bayern's defense line into a mess.

Although three attacks failed to score, it was because Bayern was standing on the line with Neuer!

If someone else comes to guard the goal, Bayern will lose at least two!

-

"Bayern's situation is a bit dangerous. Their attack has lost its sharp feeling, while Borussia Mönchengladbach's counterattack is very deadly..."

Of course the commentator can see it, because during this period, Borussia Mönchengladbach has threatened three times in a row, and it is no longer a one-sided half-court offensive and defensive drill.

"Oh, Bayern is finally going to make personnel adjustments. Who is Heinx going to replace..."

He Wei's voice suddenly roared:

"Long Shute stood on the sidelines, he is going to make a substitute!"

-

In the 81st minute, Long Shute finally appeared.

The person he replaced was not Cross, but Mueller who was free to move in the frontcourt.

Mueller's ability to run without the ball and find opportunities is of course top-notch, but if he does not have enough physical fitness to support him, and his teammates' response is slow for the first half of the second, the effect of this ability is equal to zero.

The three consecutive wins of the previous Bayern players still kept their spirits in a highly excited state, but they had already revealed obvious fatigue in their bodies, which even all the commentators could see very clearly.

That's right, Borussia Mönchengladbach's lineup has not changed from the previous game, but they have no Champions League mission!

-

"Hynx's substitution is too late, and there are less than ten minutes before the end of the game, and Bayern's entire team is obviously not as good as before..."

He Wei expressed some regret, and then blew up the Real Madrid head coach:

"In this regard, Mourinho is very courageous. Once he finds that a player cannot adapt to the tactics, he will make adjustments as soon as possible, even if the player has just appeared."

Then he immediately closed his mouth.

After Long Shute came on the court, Bayern's offense continued.

A straight pass like a scalpel near the middle circle of Cross sent out a scalpel-like pass through Borussia Mönchengladbach's not strong line of defense.

However, due to excessive physical energy consumption, he could no longer accurately control the power of the pass, and the kick was a little hard.

Gomez had to chase after him hard, and finally controlled the ball from the bottom line near the goal, but he had lost the angle of shooting and could only pass it backwards behind him.

Robben, who cut inward, just ran to this position, but Gomez's chase and pass back was too fast, so Old Man Luo did not react at the first time. The football hit his shin and then bounced to the side.

Robben gritted his teeth and exerted force with his legs, preparing to catch up with the ball and then shot, but a numb feeling came from his calf!

Damn it! Cramps at this time?!

The little Pan staggered. If he hadn't supported his body with both hands, he would probably have fallen to the ground.

He looked at the ball gradually moving away from him unwillingly, hoping to bite his back teeth!

But before he could close his two rows of teeth, he saw a strong calf falling down, and then a red Adi boot was thrust hard behind the ball!

"Bang!"

Borussia Mönchengladbach's goalkeeper Ter Stegen had only had time to take a step toward his right side. As soon as his right hand reached halfway, a black and white shadow flew into the net behind him!

"Swish!"

The city that I guarded for 81 minutes... was just broken by someone?!

-

Heinx grabbed his hair hard.

He didn't know what expression to use to express his mood.

Generally speaking, if you just scored seven goals in the last game, you will be a little tired of scoring the goal in the next game. With his high-profile performance, your opponent will definitely guard him strictly, and the risk of fouls and injuries will undoubtedly increase significantly.

That's why he put Long Shute on the bench, not only to give him a rest, but also to protect him...

But, who knows?

Maybe…this guy doesn’t need rest or protection?

What he needs most...is games after games?

"Beautiful! Long Shute's shot is so close! Ter Stegen has no choice! 1-0!"

He Wei finally made the most passionate voice in this game:

"In the 81st minute of the second half, Bayern No. 8, who came on the bench, scored on his first touch!
Chapter completed!
