Is it really that fast?
Wow, they scored even faster than Leverkusen! It's only been a little over 3 minutes, let's say 4 minutes?
I feel like this Gulacsi is not as good as me. It should be easy for him to get this ball out of the penalty area, right?
[Damn it, Mr. Goodman hasn't even touched the ball yet, how did Leipzig fall behind?]
"Oh!"
After scoring the goal, Götze ran towards the corner flag and let out a roar to release his emotions.
Scoring goals is nothing unusual for him.
But this goal was scored just 4 minutes into the game!
"Bayern's counter-attack was truly textbook-perfect!"
"Yes, that should be Götze's fastest league goal so far. Gulacsi actually had a lot of problems with that goal, but Orban also didn't handle it well!"
"1:0!"
"Bayern Munich is in the lead!"
The stadium was filled with boos, all directed at Götze by the home team fans.
But it must be said that Bayern's counterattack was indeed quite effective.
From the perspective of a neutral fan, the away team certainly deserved that goal!
"Calm down, stay calm! It's okay!"
Poulsen is fulfilling his duties as captain.
Fortunately, with the experience from the previous match against Leverkusen, the Leipzig players did not panic too much when they suddenly fell behind by one goal today.
It's true that I'm not panicking.
It's true that I'm unhappy!
I'm truly impressed.
Hao Ren slowly rubbed the grass with the cleats of his sneakers: "Mr. Goodman hasn't even touched the ball yet—"
"take it easy!"
Paulsen patted Hao Ren on the shoulder.
"Whoa!!"
The game continues.
"RBL!"
Boom!
"RBL!"
Bang bang bang!
The Leipzig fans were under a lot of psychological pressure after falling behind 0-1 so early in the game.
Considering their opponent is the invincible Bayern Munich, Leipzig fans are not worried about losing the game, but rather about losing by a large margin!
This is a media battle between the Bundesliga champion and the 2. Bundesliga champion.
If Leipzig loses by too much, their fans won't be able to act so arrogantly in front of other Bundesliga teams anymore!
12th minute!
9
Go go! Don't hesitate! Watch the flanks, attack their flanks!
Guardiola shouted and gestured at the same time.
The Spaniard speaks very quickly, but he gestures even faster than he speaks.
It feels like there's chakra hidden inside me!
"Coman is charging out down the wing!"
"Leipzig's side—well, actually, a speedy winger like Coman is still very troublesome, especially for Leipzig."
"Yes, speed is the ultimate weapon in martial arts. Leipzig doesn't have any defensive players who can keep up with Coman, which is a big problem."
While chatting and laughing, Coman had already reached the Leipzig baseline under the cover of his teammates.
But that wasn't the end of it. After reaching the bottom line, Coman started moving towards the middle lane again.
Does he want to play the hero?
"this!"
Rod received the ball as he made a forward run, then flicked it behind him.
So actually, Rod was just a decoy; his real purpose in getting the ball was to cover for Coman to go to the left wing!
Coman dribbled the ball toward the left baseline.
Snapped!
The pass was delivered to Müller.
"I'll do it!"
Hao Ren gestured for Kimmich to go find Vidal, while he himself faced off against Müller.
With his hands behind his back, Hao Ren stared intently at Muller's waist.
Müller pulled to the left, and Hao Ren decisively followed.
right!
Keep following!
Hao Ren and Müller argued for a long time, but in the end, Hao Ren did not give the latter a chance to cross the ball.
Müller had no choice but to pass the ball to Bernat behind him.
"Bernat!"
"The cross went in!"
"Rhodes!"
"Header!"
"Hey, goal!"
"Leipzig's defense has serious problems."
A 45-degree cross followed by a header – a simple and decisive combination by Bayern players opened up Leipzig's goal once again.
The score is now 2-0!
Bayern extend their lead!
The Leipzig players were incredibly frustrated as they watched their opponents run right past them.
Gulacsi even questioned Comper: "If you had interfered with him even a little bit!"
"I!"
Compper helplessly shook his head.
Man-to-man marking seems simple; you just need to mark one player closely.
However, sometimes, especially when there is a large gap in ability between the offensive and defensive players, man-to-man marking may not be effective.
Compper never expected Rhodes to suddenly change direction!
The situation was urgent, and Rangnick finally couldn't hold back any longer. He immediately called all the players on the field to his side.
"From now on, we will focus more on defense."
"Defense! Or replace defense with offense!"
"As for the transition between offense and defense, let's put that aside for now!"
Ok?
Hao Ren was stunned, thinking he had misheard.
But as he listened further, Hao Ren realized he hadn't misheard.
Rangnick wants his players to temporarily abandon the transition between offense and defense.
Simply put, it means that midfielders can position themselves further back.
Hao Ren, Kimmich, and Dem's primary task is to limit the opponent's attacking players.
They can no longer afford to think about retaliating!
"Defend well and hold on for the first half!"
"Langnick roared."
The coach's saliva sprayed all over Hao Ren's face, but Hao Ren simply wiped it off.
His attention was completely focused on what Ronnick had just said.
"Hold on for the first half!"
"Is it possible?"
"no problem!"
Hao Ren clenched his right fist and lightly punched Rangnick in the chest, then clapped hands with Dem and Kimmich respectively.
"Keep it up!"
30th minute!
FCB: 67%.
RBL: 33%.
The difference in strength between the two teams is gradually becoming apparent in the statistics.
-
Although RB Leipzig has been in phenomenal form in recent seasons, they still appear quite flustered when facing Guardiola's possession-based tactics.
"Don't rush!"
Hao Ren charged toward Muller.
With Dem's help, Hao Ren successfully gained a good position.
Müller put his hand on Hao Ren's shoulder.
"screw you!"
Hao Ren thrust his buttocks backward, startling Muller.
This move also gave Hao Ren the opportunity to contest for possession of the ball.
He passed the ball to Dem, turned forward, and received a through pass from Dem.
"Leipzig starts moving possession forward!"
"Yes, that's what they need to do now: keep the ball in the opponent's half as much as possible to reduce the risk of conceding a goal."
Wow!
"Hao Ren!"
"Hao Ren got the first point!"
"Clear the ball out!"
"pretty!"
Ten minutes later.
Leipzig's repeated successful defenses caused Guardiola to repeatedly clutch his head on the sidelines.
The fans at the stadium weren't fools; they immediately saw through Leipzig's intentions.
They've given up on scoring in the first half!
We must defend the goal!
"Push them back down the flanks!"
"Stop standing there, get to the side!"
Guardiola looked a little anxious.
He didn't really like the feeling of constantly controlling the ball but being unable to shoot.
"We are the pride of the East, yes, we are!"
"Vom Nordpol bis zum Südpol, singt mit uns im Chor (From the South Pole to the North Pole, we sing together)"
"WirsindderStolzdesOstens, jadassindwir!"
RBL!
'
Boom!
RBL!
'
Bang bang bang!
A long ball flew from afar, and Hao Ren and Poulsen rushed to the landing point together, clamping Alonso down between them.
"I'll do it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hao Ren jumped high and headed the ball.
Leipzig won the first point.
Werner then kicked the ball to the wing again!
Leipzig completed this defensive play!
"Wrong, this is what we were talking about earlier. Hao Ren is a very strong player, both on the ground and in the air, with a very high success rate!"
"but----"
"!"
"Vidal's through ball!"
"Götze has the ball!"
"Blow on the door!"
"Goal!"
"3:0!"
"3:0!"
Beep beep beep!!!
Chaos erupted as Leipzig players rushed toward the referee.
Seeing the home team make a move, the away team Bayern players also followed suit.
"Offside! Offside!"
Klostermann and the referee emphasized, "They had at least half a body length more."
"I know, I saw it!"
The referee gave Alababy a no-go gesture, indicating that he should not come over: "I already know the situation regarding this ball."
"Goal disallowed, understand?"
Wow!!!
【offside】
"call!"
"Damn, that scared me to death, cough cough!"
While the two sides were arguing, Hao Ren gasped for breath.
Are you alright?
Kimmich bent down and helped Hao Ren, who was holding his knees, up, then glanced at the timer board outside the court.
"It's the last 8 minutes, I'll give you some extra support. You need to rest a bit, Goode, otherwise you won't be able to play in the second half."
,"I can----"
"It's alright, it's alright, leave it to me!"
Kimmich patted his chest.
Despite being far behind, Leipzig will ultimately fight back.
For the resistance to be effective, Grandpa Niu must have plenty of energy before the resistance begins.
This was the key to Leipzig's success in the second half!
"Leipzigallez! (Go Leipzig!)"
"Leipzig allez!"
"...
'
Boateng rushed out.
Just kick him!
Snapped!
Boateng's long-range shot blasted into the stands.
The first half ended with Guardiola looking speechless.
"Whoosh, beep whoosh!!"
The score was 0-2, and the defenders were exhausted.
All I can say is that Leipzig had a really tough time in the first half.
However, they managed to hold on and prevent their opponents from scoring a third goal.
After clapping hands with Almas, Hao Ren heard fans chanting his name in Chinese as he walked toward the players' tunnel.
"Hao Ren! Keep it up!"
Looking up, I saw several Asian faces, who were probably international students from China.
"It's okay, don't feel pressured, just do your best in the second half!"
"Go Hao, the King of Balls!"
Hao Ren clenched his right fist and raised it slightly to indicate that he had heard the fans' shouts.
"Honestly, their style of play is suffocating."
"It wasn't just the attacking third; the defense was also using short passes, which rendered our pressing completely ineffective."
Snapped!
Poulsen kicked a water bottle off the ground: "Damn! I feel like we're being walked like dogs, you know? Their defenders are on leashes, they tell us where to run, and we have to run there!"
"They are indeed more capable."
Klosterman sighed.
Soon, Rangnick updated the contents of the tactics board and pushed Poulsen back into his chair.
"And you, Goodman. You'd better sit down and eat a banana; that shouldn't matter, right?"
"certainly!"
Hao Ren also sat down.
At this moment, only coaches Rangnick and Almas were standing in the locker room.
"We were heavily pressured in the first half, and we need to think about why we were pressured."
"Yes, the root cause of the suppression is the difference in understanding. They understand football tactics better than us and know how to play better. This is a very troublesome thing because once there is a gap in understanding, it is simply impossible for us to turn the tide in a short period of time."
Rangnick's point is that if Leipzig wants to reach Bayern's current level of strength, it will need several more seasons of development.
"But unfortunately, the competition has already started, and we don't have many seasons left. So we have to do something!"
'
dong dong!
Rangnick tapped the tactical board: "In the second half, all the midfielders will push forward, and we'll start playing purely high up the pitch."
"No need to say anything, I know what you want to say. Bayern is very strong, and our high position may not be effective. Yes, that's right, but we have to do it this way. Because if we continue with the original method, we will definitely lose, so we can give it a try."
this----
The Leipzig players were somewhat surprised.
Ralph seems to have gone mad?
"We need to make the game unfamiliar to our opponents. When they don't know why the game has turned out this way, our goal is achieved!"
clap clap clap!
After tidying up a bit, the team members in the room all stood up.
"We did a great job in the first half, so everyone! Listen to me, let's not put pressure on ourselves!"
"This isn't a one-sided match, but rather an opportunity for us to showcase ourselves!"
"Come!"
The players all placed their hands on Poulsen.
"Leipzig!"
"Alright, everyone, welcome back. This is the second half of the match between RB Leipzig and Bayern Munich."
"For Leipzig, Naby Keita comes on as a substitute, replacing Forsberg!"
"Hmm, this substitution... I feel Leipzig still has the desire to attack. Although they were heavily pressured by Bayern in the first half, but—"
"Let's see how Leipzig's players prepare to face this 0-2 deficit after the halftime adjustments!"
Boateng dribbled up the field and delivered a pass that struck Götze with a "thud".
Götze prepared to turn around, but Orban blocked his position.
At this point, the correct thing to do for Götze would be to pass the ball back to his teammate.
But with a two-goal lead, Götze played very aggressively.
And the result of such arrogance is—
He lost the ball!
Keep moving forward!
There's a chance!
Hao Ren ran forward immediately.
Snapped!
A long pass from Leipzig's backfield found Keita up front.
"Stop!"
Keita chested the ball down, and possession fell to Poulsen.
Soon, Hao Ren, who had been catching up from behind, arrived and took the ball from Poulsen's feet.
Snapped!
A through ball was sent into the penalty area.
The ball was received by Naby Keita, who had just rushed into the penalty area!
boom!
Keita took a shot, but Rafinha blocked it while he was on the ground, and the ball bounced back to the shooter's feet.
"Give me!"
"Poulsen shouted."
He received a pass from Keita, drawing the defense in the process!
Now is the time!
Leipzig's captain seized the brief opportunity and successfully passed the ball to Hao Ren.
This also gave Hao Ren a chance to face the goalkeeper directly!
boom!
"T000ORRRRR!!!"
