Chapter 276 Do you think Chaqiu Wang just said something nice?

Leverkusen has done its best in defense this time.

But it still couldn't stop Bayern from scoring.

This is the dominance of the Bundesliga overlords.

"It doesn't matter, the goal just now was just luck."

Off the field, the Leverkusen head coach constantly encouraged the players.

This gorgeous passing coordination is a flash of inspiration between the players.

If you train them a hundred times, it will be difficult to replicate them.

After the restart, Leverkusen's morale was not affected.

Bayern scored the goal through Thiago's wide-range dribbling in the midfield, tearing apart the defense.

Then Leverkusen can also take advantage of the large space in the midfield to create opportunities.

Midfielder Campur is technically not as comprehensive as Thiago.

But with the help of his teammates, he can also pose a threat to Bayern's defense.

The player who helped him was Calhanoglu.

After Lahm strictly defended him, it was difficult for him to help defend him.

Coupled with the forward pressure of other Leverkusen midfielders, the elderly Alonso had to deal with Campur alone.

Alonso can use experience to intercept.

But it seems a little inadequate for him to defend the ball carrier one-on-one.

Off the field, An Pang sensed the threat and asked full-back Kimmich to defend the wing. Lahm had more energy to cover the space in the midfielder.

In the 35th minute, Alonso once again defended Campur alone.

Faced with the sudden change in the opponent's rhythm, Alonso turned around and tried to use a sliding tackle to destroy the ball.

But Kampl's feet hit the ball one step faster than him, not only avoiding the tackle, but also getting rid of Alonso's defense.

The midfielder was passed, and Kanpur faced Bayern's defense.

Lahm could only abandon his defensive area, go straight to Kanpur, stretch out his right foot, and tackle the player with the ball.

drop!

After the referee trotted over, he showed Lahm a yellow card and gave Leverkusen a free kick in the frontcourt.

This position is about 27 meters away from the goal, and it is relatively to the left. The shooting angle is very small, which is suitable for crosses.

When Calhanoglu stood at the penalty spot, Bayern's players were fully focused and did not dare to relax in the slightest.

This guy's free kicks can threaten the goal from any position.

Neuer is carefully arranging the positioning of the wall.

Last season, Calhanoglu was in the same position and scored the goal he was guarding.

This time, Neuer formed a wall of four people to ensure nothing went wrong.

"Dance as hard as you can for me later. Whoever doesn't dance, after the game is over, I will kick his butt hard, stand him upside down, and stuff him into a beer barrel."

Neuer threatened his teammates loudly towards the wall.

He must spare more energy to defend crosses.

Calhanoglu, who had always remained calm, suddenly had a murderous look in his eyes during his approach.

Rossi, as the fourth pick, felt his murderous intent.

As a free kick taker, although he is new to the game, he can see the contempt in the smile on the opponent's lips.

This is shown by his special confidence in his free throws.

Bang!

The moment Calhanoglu's right foot hit the ball, Rossi covered his crotch with both hands, jumped up hard, and turned his head to the side.

Fortunately, the ball did not roar past their heads, but drew an exaggerated arc and flew towards the penalty area.

Hummels, Martinez, Lewandowski, Bayern's three high points, all seem to have full confidence in the placement.

Middle road.

Not only the three of them, but also the offensive players were sure that the ball would land in the middle.

But what they didn't expect was that the ball's trajectory was further back than where they expected.

Hummels jumped up hard and tried to break out.

But the ball was very stable in flight, and seemed to be precisely guided, going around his head and landing on top of Brandt's head at the back point.

Neuer's expression changed drastically. While jumping back, he spread his limbs and tried to prevent the opponent's header by expanding the defensive area.

But Brandt's shot was directed towards the upper right corner of the goal.

Even if Neuer was well prepared, he could not prevent the ball from entering the net.

【The ball is scored!】

[Just five minutes after Bayern scored, Leverkusen equalized the score.]

[Calhanoglu’s ultra-long pass once again showed his excellent footwork.]

[It passed Bayern's three high-point defenses and appeared at the weakest defensive point.]

[What Brandt has to do is to hit the ball lightly. 】

[This goal, although not as good as Bayern’s previous goal, gives people a dazzling feeling.]

[But the wonderful arc of this long pass is also worth recalling. 】

The well-rehearsed defensive set-piece tactics were actually vulnerable in front of the opponent, which made Bayern's generals look a little embarrassed.

It also left the home fans stunned.

The quality of Calhanoglu's cross can transform a second-rate forward into a top-notch forward.

After the score was equalized, there was no more amazing offense from both sides, and it quickly entered the halftime break.

Back in the locker room, the Bayern players thought they would be scolded by An Pang.

Unexpectedly, when An Pang returned to the locker room, the first thing he said was...

"Seize the time to rest. We need to speed up in the second half and reduce defensive mistakes."

"The opponent's free kicks are very strong, and we have to cut off their advantage at the source."

"When defending, don't think about stealing the ball, otherwise you won't create set-piece opportunities for the opponent."

"Everyone cheer up, it's just a draw now."

An Pang's words completely relaxed the nervous minds of the players.

In the second half, Leverkusen continued their solid half-court defense.

From the 4 draws and 1 win in the Champions League group stage, we know that their defensive integrity and tacit understanding are very good.

After stabilizing their defense, taking advantage of set-piece opportunities to score is the most direct and effective tactic they use against strong teams.

Bayern still couldn't break the defense after trying for ten minutes.

Ancelotti made a bold decision.

When the team gets a chance to counterattack, the central defender must boldly press forward and even attack the opponent's goal.

The threat of midfielder Alonso from behind is far less than what he was at his peak.

He can push into the back line and take up the role left by the centre-back.

In the 55th minute, Lahm successfully stole the ball in the midfield and quickly launched a counterattack, passing it to Robben on the wing.

At this time, Hummels opened his long legs and ran all the way from the backcourt to outside the opponent's penalty area.

Rossi and Lewandowski had already put pressure on Leverkusen's defense. Facing Hummels who came in from behind, their defense was obviously insufficient.

Kimmich stepped in, received a pass from Robben, and made a pass.

The ball flew towards the center of the penalty area. Without any defense, Hummels sprinted forward, jumped up with all his strength, and hit the middle of the ball with his head.

When he took off, it even felt like a plane rumbling by.

The powerful header went straight to the center.

The goalkeeper had no time to move his feet and subconsciously opened his right arm.

But the ball was one step ahead of him, whizzing past him and into the net.

2:1!

The Allianz Arena was bombarded by this header, igniting passion once again.
