Chapter 344 He is back(1/2)
In the sixth round of the Bundesliga on Friday night, Bayern faced Wolfsburg at home.
The time was moved from Saturday to Friday night in order to allow Bayern to prepare for this season's Champions League.
In addition to Anderlecht, Scottish Premier League Celtic and Ligue 1 tycoon Paris Saint-Germain are in the same group as Bayern.
In the middle of next week, Bayern will go to Paris to challenge this French Ligue 1 team.
In the starting lineup, Ancelotti chose Tolisso, Vidal and Thiago in the midfield to shoulder the responsibility of running the team.
James entered the 18-man roster, but he still needs to be on the bench, waiting for opportunities.
Wolfsburg introduced many players this season to strengthen the lineup, but the results at the beginning of the season were not good.
But after several rounds of running-in, the tactics became increasingly mature, and the players were young and very impactful in the frontcourt, which caused some trouble for Bayern's defense.
Bayern's three midfielders did not have a full-time defensive midfielder, so they seemed a bit passive when faced with the back-and-forth impact of this group of young wolves.
Vidal received a yellow card in the 15th minute of the first half, which is enough to show that there are defensive problems in the midfield.
The midfielder is passive and can provide little support to the forwards.
Robben returned to the starting position as a right winger. He often had to return to the midfield to get the ball and use his personal abilities to make trouble on the wing.
After gradually adapting to Wolfsburg's pressing pressure, Bayern began to have more possession of the ball in the midfield.
Old man Luo started dribbling the ball towards the center.
Different from the past, Robben's threatening area is on the right side of the penalty area.
As long as he cuts inside here, no goalkeeper in the world can block his shot.
But in this game, Robben started to walk towards the middle more after halftime, handing over the vertical offensive line from the wing to Kimmich, allowing him to attack the opponent's defense.
Not only that, while Luo was dribbling the ball toward the center, Rossi also leaned to the right, creating an advantage on the wing.
This forced Wolfsburg's formation to begin to tilt to this side.
However, Old Man Luo suddenly moved the ball to the weak side, and Rafinha, who advanced along the sideline, faced only one defensive player from the opponent.
Defender Verhacher quickly rushed to block the ball, but before he could get into position, Rafinha passed the ball to the center.
Near the penalty area, center Lewandowski has retreated here to receive the ball and attracted the defense of center defender Tisserand.
After Wolfsburg moves the entire formation, it needs to mark and cover the offensive players. During this period, there will be a moment or two of panic.
Rossi seized this second opportunity and quickly inserted into the space behind the central defender who was taken away by Lewandowski.
Of course, ordinary teams cannot achieve such fast-paced offensive coordination.
But a powerful club like Bayern can do it.
[Lewandowski passed the ball into the penalty area! 】
【Rossi strikes again!】
【Robben is empty!】
【Shoot!!!】
[The ball is scored, Bayern takes the lead!]
[What a wonderful collaboration, the three of them completed a scalpel-like pass in the opponent's penalty area!]
[Finally, Robben has the final say!]
[Bayern’s offense this season is smoother and more pleasing to the eye!]
The Allianz Arena in Munich instantly became excited.
The fans chanted Robben's name, and the sound echoed over the stadium.
Robben rushed to the sidelines and performed a celebration that he had not done for a long time.
What he felt was that scoring a goal was so easy and comfortable.
As he grows older, Robben's explosive power is also diminishing, and he can no longer cut inside and knock on the opponent's goal as frequently as he did when he was young.
This kind of kicking method can save more physical energy for yourself, and use this physical energy where it is needed.
After all, I no longer have the capital to squander when I was young.
This can also be regarded as an advanced health-preserving kick.
After scoring the goal, Bayern players played more relaxedly, attacking wave after wave, overwhelming Wolfsburg.
As the first half was about to enter stoppage time, Rossi also scored a penalty kick for Bayern.
Lewandowski made the hit himself, extending the score to 2:0.
Unwilling to lose, Wolfsburg replaced an offensive player at the beginning of the second half and changed the formation to 4-1-4-1 to strengthen the pressing and attack in the frontcourt.
Their main target is Bayern's midfielder.
This radical offensive method is conducive to frontcourt pressure and counterattack.
But there will be huge holes in the defense.
If Bayern's midfielder cannot be suppressed, all it takes is a ball from behind to completely penetrate the defense.
Under the opponent's crazy attack, Ancelotti called James to his side in order to regain the initiative.
The Colombian star was tidying up his socks on the sidelines and getting ready to go out, but the fans in the stands looked calm.
From the high expectations at the beginning to the indifference now, it all reveals disappointment.
The score is now leading, but it's not time to relax yet. The opponent's pressure keeps running with high intensity.
Replacing James with James made the fans feel that Ancelotti had selfish motives.
In the 65th minute, James replaced Tolisso, and there was sparse applause from the stadium.
The moment James stepped onto the Allianz Stadium, he leaned down, scratched the turf with his fingertips, made a cross in front of him, and prayed for himself.
Bayern serves.
The first time James touched the ball, he passed it back to the defense and then connected backwards.
When he took the initiative to retreat, he pointed forward to indicate Thiago's condition.
The defender returned the ball to James, and Wolfsburg rushed over immediately.
Oops!
With a slightly unexpected sigh, James used a fake move to escape from the double team and dribbled the ball toward the baseline.
Kimmich was about to come back to meet him, but was stopped by James James.
I can do it!
He told everyone with his firm eyes!
James retreats very deep to get the ball. Once the opponent presses him alone, he will immediately get rid of the defense.
Although the ball is still in the backcourt, Bayern has absolute control over the ball.
Huh?
David on the side was a little surprised, is this still James?
Despite his lack of defense, he was able to keep the ball firmly at his feet.
Gradually, Wolfsburg's frontcourt press began to press to one side.
At this moment, James suddenly turned around, got rid of the defense, and kicked off suddenly.
Bang!
The ball drew an arc in the sky above the court and landed accurately at the feet of Kimmich on the weak side.
【What a ball!】
[James’ pass is definitely a master level one!]
[Bayern begins to switch from defense to offense!]
Wolfsburg pressed forward aggressively, causing the two wing-backs to be exposed.
James' pass just penetrated the defense.
Midfielder Camacho quickly stepped forward to block the ball and knocked Kimmich down without hesitation.
He knows very well that once the ball is passed to Kimmich, the defense will encounter a disaster.
drop!
Yellow card, Bayern has the ball.
After Kimish played the ball, Hames quickly came to respond and transferred the ball to the other side.
After several passing, Bayern's midfield organization began to become smooth, and the passing idea was very clear.
Hamez took the ball back, and there was Bilda protection around him. He could stick to the ball at will and attracted the defense.
However, the opponent's defense line is loosened. After using his personal ability to get rid of, quickly split the ball to Tiago.
