Chapter 260 This is the Bundesliga

After a week of training, the team will usher in four friendly matches.

The first three opponents were all low-level domestic teams, and only the last one was against Manchester City in the Premier League.

This is also a battle between Ancelotti and Guardiola.

After four friendly matches, Bayern will travel to the United States to participate in the International Champions Cup.

After the Champions League, the team will take a week off to start the new season.

And their first game was the German Super Cup, against Dortmund.

Therefore, in the first three games, Bayern sent out a semi-main lineup against teams from these regions, just to activate the players' game status and promote teamwork ability.

Despite this, it was difficult for Rossi to get playing time in the first three games.

It makes sense to say that he needs time to adapt to the Bundesliga.

Because of Renato Sanchez, it is also difficult to get a chance to play.

But other members of the team, Kimmich and Kingsley Coman, as members of the German national team in the European Cup, were also placed on the bench, which is very puzzling.

Fortunately, it was just a warm-up match and the fans didn't take it to heart.

They believe that the last friendly match against Manchester City is the key.

However, in this game, Ancelotti sent a semi-main lineup to face Manchester City, who also used a semi-main lineup.

Rossi only had five minutes of playing time against his former opponents in the Premier League.

Amid doubts and doubts, Bayern started the International Champions Cup.

As a commercial event, it was once named the Guinness Cup and is divided into North America, Europe, China, Australia, Singapore and other competition regions.

Like the Emirates Cup, Telecom Cup, etc., it is one of the mainstream warm-up matches.

It can not only achieve the purpose of warming up, but also make money through the competition.

Participating teams in the North American and European divisions include: Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain, Leicester City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Inter Milan, Celtic, Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid and AC Milan.

In three games, Bayern faced AC Milan, Inter Milan and Real Madrid respectively, achieving a record of 1 win and 2 losses.

With a poor record, Bayern returned to China to prepare for the upcoming German Super Cup amid a lot of doubts.

Before the game started, Bayern fans were very dissatisfied with Ancelotti's employment.

Rossi, who the team spent 37 million euros to introduce in the summer, only played a total of 40 minutes in seven warm-up games and his performance was average.

Fans believe that Rossi should be given a lot of playing time so that he can quickly adapt to the rhythm of the Bundesliga.

Under the "pressure" from fans, Rossi's name appeared in the 18-man roster for the German Super Cup.

Hummels, who was transferred together, is already the team's main central defender. He and Javi Martinez form the team's defense.

The two full-backs on the left and right are Alaba and Lahm.

The three midfielders are Thiago, Xabi Alonso and Vidal.

The forwards are Ribery, Lewandowski and Muller.

After Dortmund coach Klopp resigned, former Mainz coach Tuchel became the team's new coach.

This summer, the former golden boy Gotze returned to the team. Dortmund also signed Schurrle from Wolfsburg, French teenager Dembélé from Rennes, and defender Bartra from Barcelona to strengthen the team's strength.

In last season's German Cup final, Bayern defeated Dortmund on penalties and won the cup.

This competition is bound to be a hot scene again.

At the Westfalenstadion, there is a sea of ​​yellow everywhere.

There are some of the most passionate fans in Germany, creating a terrifying home atmosphere.

On the surface, the past few years have been a battle between Bayern and Dortmund.

But the two teams are not mortal enemies, but competitors.

Bayern's mortal enemy is Munich 1860.

Dortmund's only mortal enemy is Schalke 04.

Hummels and Lewandowski in the Bayern team both transferred from Dortmund after becoming famous.

Dortmund midfielder Rod was transferred from Bayern this summer.

As for Gotze, he completed repeated horizontal jumps between the two teams in three years.

The tall and thin Tuchel and An Pang shook hands and returned to their respective command areas.

The game begins and Bayern kicks off.

Dortmund immediately launched a high-position press.

This tactic has become the team's trademark as early as the Klopp era.

Dortmund relied on this tactic to create a youth storm in the Bundesliga and even Europe.

This term has long been equated with Klopp's "heavy metal football".

But Tuchel's high-position pressing can be said to be more pragmatic.

Facing Bayern, which has super offensive power, Tuchel adopted a 4-2-3-1 formation.

Under the premise of focusing on defense and man-marking, energetic midfielders can quickly intercept opponents, thereby allowing their own offensive players to gain more freedom in the frontcourt.

Tuchel's tactics also place more emphasis on ball control and ball transfer.

They always dominate the tempo of the game and make full use of the extremely capable explosive players in the team.

But in Bayern's midfield configuration, Vidal is responsible for defensive interception, Xabi Alonso is responsible for dispatching and organizing, and Thiago is responsible for organizing and revitalizing the midfield and frontcourt series.

The three of them have a clear division of labor and their personal abilities are first-rate.

It is not so easy for Dortmund to steal the ball at their feet.

Vidal also has good offensive ability. When he goes forward to attack, Xavi Martinez will move up and form a double midfielder with Alonso, forming a barrier at the back line.

Facing Bayern's midfielder with excellent footwork, Dortmund's pressing could not pose a threat to Bayern's defense.

Although Tuchel has the nickname "tactical genius", he can formulate corresponding tactics according to different opponents and is also good at changing the position of players.

But his opponent is Champions League coach Carlo Ancelotti.

Ancelotti is also a "chef" who is good at transforming lineups and players.

When Real Madrid won their tenth Champions League trophy, there was not a single player he recommended to introduce.

An Pang was able to optimize a reasonable lineup with the existing staffing.

This is a typical "look at what's on the menu".

In the 7th minute, Bayern's midfielder successfully pushed the ball past half-court through continuous small-scale cooperation and passed it to the right.

Muller, who is not very fast and is not good at cutting inside, made a pass after observing the situation in front of the goal.

Papastaropoulos, who was at the forward point, jumped high, but did not hit the ball.

Instead, it shocked everyone.

Altera in the middle blocked Lewandowski's path forward.

But later on, Vidal's appearance shocked everyone into a cold sweat.

Bang!

Vidal took off and headed the ball hard towards the center of the goal.

When goalkeeper Burki moved, his body took advantage of the situation and made a diving action.

In mid-air, he blocked the ball with both hands.

Seeing that the ball was saved, Vidal fought for the second penalty very quickly after landing. After taking a step forward, before his supporting foot landed, he met the ball with his right foot and shot.

However, the goalkeeper Burki moved faster, and quickly got up to block after falling to the ground.

Dort fans who escaped the robbery, shouted crazy, cheered twice for the goalkeeper.

Sit on the ground, sighing helplessly.

Laiwan, who was copied in the middle, hugged his head incredible.

The reaction of this goalkeeper is too fast.

In just a few minutes, Rossi on the bench felt the charm of the Bundesliga offense.

Once the ball passes through the midfield, the rear defense line is easily penetrated by the opponent's straight ball.

Such a concise and practical offense is compared to the Premier League, and it does not give up.

If the Bayern player who just took the ball, replaced it with Robben.

Well, all Dortmund fans will see his unsolved internal shot again.

This is the Bundesliga!
