Chapter 573: Su Dong's Personal Show

During the halftime break, when returning to the locker room, all Bayern players seemed extremely excited.

Three to zero, Bayern temporarily took the lead in the first half thanks to Su Dong's hat trick.

This is already an extremely good score, and it can even be said that Bayern has basically won the game.

But this does not mean that Bayern can be careless, because there is still the second half and the second round.

In a competition of the level of the Champions League knockout stage, even the slightest carelessness can lead to very serious consequences.

When Heynckes pushed the door and walked into the locker room, his legs were full of wind.

The German old man was smiling throughout the whole event. He probably didn't expect that the game would go so smoothly. He couldn't believe the result. He was secretly laughing outside for a long time before he calmed down and came over.

"In the first half... everyone did a good job!" Old Man Hai finally couldn't help it and praised everyone with a smile, but his admiring eyes always fell on Su Dong.

He really didn't expect that Su Dong would have such a big outburst tonight.

The players in the Bayern locker room were also very excited. They couldn't believe that they were leading 3-0 in the first half, but precisely because of this, they were very satisfied with their own strength and performance. They became more confident, and everyone's spirit became different.

Heynckes analyzed and adjusted some situations that occurred in the first half, mainly when Barcelona was in possession of the ball. Bayern sometimes involuntarily retreated too deep, which was contrary to Heynckes' pre-match deployment. He required the players to put enough pressure on the opponent when Barcelona was in possession of the ball.

It would be easier for a team like Barcelona to create threats if they don't exert some pressure when they have the ball.

Simply put, defensive contraction doesn't work for Barcelona.

Treat others in their own way, this is the advice given by Su Dong.

Use Barcelona-style pressure to deal with Barcelona.

What to do after winning the ball? This is another point where Bayern didn’t do well enough.

Heynckes believes that the team did not do well enough in switching from defense to offense in the first half.

"I watched it and every time we successfully stole the ball, Barcelona would try to counterattack, and at this time we often had problems with our handling. The best way should be to pass the ball quickly, transfer it out, and instigate a counterattack as soon as possible."

In the first half, some of Bayern's actions were not reasonable. They either kicked the ball too blindly or stuck to the ball too much, missing the best opportunity for counterattack.

Heynckes believes that the purpose of Barcelona's on-the-spot counterattack is to slow down Bayern's counterattack speed and create more time for the midfield and backcourt to get into position. What Bayern needs to do is to organize a threatening offensive as soon as possible before Barcelona's midfield and backcourt fall behind.

"Everyone, after the first half of the game, I believe that each of us has a very clear understanding of the game. What we need to do in the second half is to make up for the shortcomings and mistakes in the first half."

"I firmly believe that as long as we continue to maintain this fighting spirit and momentum, we will leave the Nou Camp with our heads held high with a victory. This will be a classic game worthy of being recorded in Bayern's history and even in the history of the Champions League!"

In the locker room, every player seemed to be energized and extremely excited when they heard what Heynckes said.

Beat Barcelona, ​​reach the Champions League semi-finals, and even go one step further to reach the Champions League final. Bayern wants to revive the glory of the beginning of the century! …………

…………

After the start of the second half, neither Barcelona nor Bayern made any substitutions.

Rijkaard did not even make any changes to the team's technical and tactical approach, but instead let the team continue with the passing and controlling style of play in the first half.

Bayern also continued to adopt the defensive counterattack strategy in the first half, but focused on strengthening the pressure on Barcelona in the midfield and frontcourt.

Ribery and Robben retreated very deep tonight, protecting the two wings more in the midfield. Their offense relied more on quick runs in counterattacks, and their contribution in defense was also great. Both players conscientiously completed the tasks assigned by the head coach.

It can be said that the entire Bayern team is working together to organize their defense.

From Su Dong in the front to Kahn in the back, the eleven players were tied together as one.

This meant that although Bayern only had a possession rate of more than 20% in the first ten minutes of the second half, their defense was very tightly organized and did not give Barcelona any chance to threaten them.

Fighting as a whole and as a team has always been the advantage of the Bundesliga teams.

Barcelona began to become anxious.

In the 56th minute, Henry got the ball on the left and tried to dribble into the penalty area to create a threat. Although he got rid of Lahm, he was blocked by Lucio, who intercepted Henry's pass.

Henry and Bojan tried to steal the ball, but Lucio quickly passed it to Mascherano, who passed it back to Lahm who was in an open space.

After the Bayern right-back stopped the ball, Henry approached immediately, but Lahm pulled the ball to avoid Henry's first pressure and quickly passed the ball to the retreating Modric.

As soon as the Croatian midfielder stopped the ball, Iniesta, Yaya Toure who was chasing him, and Henry who was returning to defense, formed a small triangle defense area, clamping down on Modric who had the ball and Robben who was retreating to support him.

Modric had no way to pass the ball, so he dribbled the ball between Iniesta and Henry and passed it back to Lahm in his own half.

This looks like a pass that failed and then was passed back to the organization.

But at this moment, Ram just stopped the ball, looked forward, and made a long pass.

Lahm's long pass went very far and landed directly in the 30-meter area of ​​Barcelona's half.

No one understood what was happening and thought that Ram was using his big foot to free himself, but unexpectedly, a red lightning bolt rushed forward at an extremely fast speed.

At first, Abidal tried his best to pull Su Dong, forcing Su Dong to be unable to speed up, but soon, Su Dong broke free from Abidal's entanglement, chased forward at the fastest speed, and kicked the ball into the penalty area before Milito.

Milito and Puyol also chased back very quickly. The Argentine central defender did not get the first point, but he returned to the penalty area in time.

Su Dong chased into the penalty area again and caught up with the ball, but Milito was already blocking him in front of the side, and Valdes also blocked other shooting angles, which made Su Dong's wish to shoot directly come to nothing.

But Su Dong was a man of great skill and courage, and he was quick-witted. After catching up with the ball, he did not kick the ball directly, but took a step ahead and hooked the ball with the instep of his right foot, and hooked it to his left side.

As Su Dong expected, the ball was hooked back to the left side. He then moved his left foot sideways and just passed Milito who was in position.

Puyol also chased back all the way. He reacted quickly and stopped in time behind Milito.

When Su Dong cut inside laterally, he was just behind Milito and he kicked decisively, trying to intercept the ball.

But Su Dong reacted faster. He chased after him and kicked the ball with his left foot again, making Puyol's attempt to steal the ball miss.

After dodging the space, Su Dong kicked out with his left foot without much hesitation.

A curved ball shot from Su Dong's left foot.

At this time, Xavi, who was returning to defense, just caught up with Su Dong. He couldn't stop his momentum and crashed into Su Dong.

But the ball flew out at an extremely fast speed and hit the lower left corner of the goal.

The moment the referee blew the whistle to signal that the goal was valid, the Camp Nou, which accommodated 100,000 fans, fell silent.

Everyone could clearly hear Su Dong's hearty roar, and then they saw Su Dong rushing out of the court, running all the way, with his right hand raised high above his head and showing four fingers.

"Big Four!!!!"

"Tonight is Su Dong's personal show!"

"Let's look at the attack just now. After Bayern intercepted the ball, they made a series of passes and successfully transferred the ball to a safe place. At this time, Barcelona's entire formation pressed too close, leaving a large gap behind them, which gave Su Dong room to play with his speed."

"Abidal couldn't stop Su Dong who was sprinting. Milito returned to defense very quickly, but Su Dong's high-speed hook and lateral cut was also handled very well. The details were very difficult, and the subsequent series of processing was also amazing."

"It can be said that this goal is not only the result of Bayern's teamwork, but also the result of Heynckes' targeted tactics, and it is also a reflection of Su Dong's personal ability!"

"Four to zero! Bayern staged an incredible massacre at Camp Nou!"

"Rijkaard must now come up with a more effective way and try to score a goal. Otherwise, not only tonight's game, but also the second leg, Barcelona will have a hard time winning, and Bayern will get a ticket to the Champions League semi-finals in the first leg."

…………

After conceding another goal, Barcelona finally couldn't help but make substitutions.

Mexican player Marcos replaced Yaya Toure.

This is actually a helpless choice because Yaya Toure's strengths and weaknesses are too obvious.

The advantage is that he can provide the hardness that Barcelona's midfield lacks, and his defense is also good, but the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, his footwork is good, but he is too sticky to the ball and his sense of position is relatively poor.

The most typical example is that he did not return to his position during the first two goals.

Replacing Yaya Toure with Marcos is actually an attempt to maintain Barcelona's previous passing and controlling system.

Bayern played more clearly and confidently.

With a four-goal lead, the players knew that the team's tactics were on target and were almost targeting Barcelona's weak spots, leaving Barcelona almost helpless.

In the minds of many players, this game seemed like the first national derby between the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. Barcelona defeated Real Madrid in a way that left their opponents helpless.

It’s just that now, Bayern is using the same method to deal with Barcelona.

In that game, Barcelona beat Real Madrid 5-0, but what about tonight?

Will Bayern score a fifth goal?

Just when many people at the scene were having such doubts in their minds, something unexpected happened again on the court.

When Ribery dribbled the ball diagonally into the penalty area, he was fouled by Marcos on the left side outside the penalty area, giving Bayern a free kick opportunity in the frontcourt.

Su Dong stepped forward again and said he would take the penalty.
