Chapter 67: Going to the meeting alone, challenging Neuer

In order to limit Schweinsteiger, Schaff asked winger Hunter to retreat and closely guard him to limit his passing and breakthroughs.

Although it is impossible for Hunt to completely lock down Schweinsteiger, his presence has reduced Schweinsteiger's threat to a certain extent.

However, after Schweini was restricted, Bayern's attack immediately changed.

Ribery began to take over the burden of offense and became the new offensive core.

Bayern also consciously passed the ball to Ribery to increase his chances of breaking through and cutting inside to shoot.

For a moment, Werder Bremen's right side became nervous.

Ribery at this time was definitely at his peak.

His breakthroughs and cuts inside, as well as his cooperation with Robben, give Bayern unparalleled wing attacking capabilities.

Although Robben did not play in this game, Ribery still put in an outstanding performance.

In the 22nd minute, Ribery dribbled the ball inside and passed it to Muller. Muller dribbled the ball sideways, took away the defender and passed the ball back to Ribery.

The two players crossed positions during the pass, making the Werder Bremen players who were marking them a little dazed.

At this moment, taking advantage of a loophole in the opponent's defense, Ribery immediately dribbled the ball into the penalty area.

At the same time, Pizarro had already run into space in the penalty area, waiting for a through ball from his teammate.

One of Bremen's two defenders stepped forward to intercept Ribery, while the other cut off his passing route to Pizarro.

But Ribery was so fast that he accelerated past the Bremen defender and approached the bottom line of the small penalty area with the ball.

At this time he no longer had any angles to shoot, but three Bayern players had already penetrated into Werder Bremen's penalty area at high speed. No matter who he passed the ball to, he would get an excellent chance to shoot.

Just when everyone thought he was going to pass the ball, Ribery saw the gap between the defenders, took a step into the penalty area, and shot directly.

The shot was extremely sudden. Milic didn't expect the opponent to shoot directly. He jumped hastily without being fully prepared, but didn't touch the ball at all.

Fortunately, Ribery's shooting angle was too small, and the ball hit the post and bounced out, allowing Werder Bremen to escape.

The opponent's attacks at the beginning were extremely threatening. If it weren't for the last shot being a little unlucky, Werder Bremen might have been two goals behind by then.

Seeing that the opponent used Ribery as the offensive core, Schaff immediately made adjustments, letting De Bruyne consciously move to the right side of the team to assist Lin Quan in defending Ribery.

Lin Quan and De Bruyne are both players who are strong in attack but weak in defense. It would be too difficult for them to defend Ribery one-on-one.

In addition to strengthening the defense on the wing, his arrangement also has another meaning, which is to make use of De Bruyne's full offensive ability and the tacit understanding between the two to cooperate in the frontcourt and improve Werder Bremen's offense.

If they are always suppressed by the opponent like this, no one can withstand Bayern's terrifying offensive firepower.

They had to bring the battle to Bayern's half! After seeing the coach's gesture, De Bruyne immediately moved to the right, forming a triangle with right midfielder Lin Quan and right back Selassie to block Ribery's breakthrough space.

Ribery did not take the two young players Lin Quan and De Bruyne seriously. After receiving the pass from his teammate, he accelerated and changed direction, preparing to pass Lin Quan.

Ribery is very fast and he does a good job of receiving and handling the ball, which makes his first step in breaking through very difficult to defend and you can't keep up with his rhythm.

Lin Quan's defensive ability was very poor and he was easily passed by.

But he did not give up, but immediately chased after him.

He knew that his teammates would intercept in front, and Ribery could not help but slow down when passing his teammates. As long as he paused, he would have a chance to steal the ball! Seeing Lin Quan being broken through, De Bruyne immediately intercepted Ribery.

De Bruyne's defensive ability was originally very poor, but under Lin Quan's constant training, his defensive ability improved rapidly.

He is almost familiar with all the breakthrough tactics used by general wing players.

Ribery first tried to use the change in rhythm to get past his opponent, but De Bruyne was not fooled. He calmly stepped back, stayed in position, and prevented the opponent from succeeding.

Huh? This guy has good defensive skills! Ribery was a little surprised. He thought he could easily pass the opponent, but he didn't succeed.

So he cheered himself up, lowered his center of gravity and put it on his right foot.

Ribery started his ghost steps, constantly using continuous changes in rhythm to seek breakthroughs.

De Bruyne also lowered his center of gravity and concentrated his attention, but he saw the opponent suddenly pick up the ball, and the ball flew past De Bruyne's left side. Then Ribery sprinted at full speed, wanting to eat the opponent alive with his speed.

This move is almost Ribery's signature skill. He has strong explosive power and extremely fast starting speed.

The time the defensive player takes to turn around is enough for him to get past the opponent's obstruction, and it is difficult for the opponent to stop him unless he commits a foul.

After De Bruyne turned around, he was indeed half a body length behind, but he had not completely lost his position.

So he stuck to Ribery desperately, trying to stop Ribery from speeding up.

Although Ding Ding was very tall, he was a little light. He quickly fell into a disadvantage in the confrontation with the scarred man. In addition, he was half a body length behind. Before he could hold on for a few seconds, the opponent accelerated and made him lose his balance. He fell to the ground with a thud.

Fortunately, Werder Bremen's full-back Selassie had already rushed towards the ball at this time. He touched the ball first and quickly passed the ball to Lin Quan.

Lin Quan had been chasing back desperately, and there were no other Bayern players around him at that time.

He turned around without catching the ball, and then rushed towards Bayern's half with the ball.

After being suppressed by the opponents for more than twenty minutes, it was finally their turn to vent their anger.

Seeing his teammate break through with the ball, De Bruyne quickly got up from the ground and rushed out, spitting out the grass clippings in his mouth as he ran.

Arnautovic also started running wildly in the frontcourt, trying to run out of space.

Although Lin Quan had no intention of passing the ball, his teammates' movement successfully took away a defensive player, helping him to relieve some of the defensive pressure.

After losing the ball, Ribery kept chasing after the opponent. In Bayern's tactical system, he was responsible for both offense and defense, and the entire left side was his range of activity.

No wonder he is the Allianz King and Robben is not. There is a big gap between the two in terms of defensive enthusiasm and role!

Ribery is very fast, but Lin Quan is not slow either.

He ignored Ribery who was chasing him closely and dribbled the ball directly towards the back half of Bayern.

When Badstuber saw Lin Quan coming with the ball, he immediately stepped forward to intercept him, intending to cooperate with Ribery to attack from the front and back to steal the ball from the opponent.

Lin Quan did not continue to break through along the wing. When he saw Badstuber coming forward to intercept, he immediately cut into the middle.

Gustavo couldn't sit idly by at this time. He rushed towards Lin Quan, intending to double-team him and steal the ball from his feet.

The kid's breakthrough at the Allianz Arena last time left a deep impression on the entire Bayern. Even with three people double-teaming him this time, the Bayern players still did not have absolute confidence.

If it was the first time for Lin Quan to meet Bayern, he might have continued to break through like a fool.

But this time, he chose to trust his teammates.

After attracting Gustavo's pressure, Lin Quan didn't even look behind him, but directly passed the ball horizontally and hit the empty space on the ribs in front of Bayern's penalty area.

Gustavo's departure temporarily created a defensive gap, and Bayern's other midfielder Schweinsteiger was still near the center circle and was unable to rush back to defend in time because he had been very active in the attack before.

Bayern center back Dante, with his rich defensive experience, realized this problem and was preparing to step forward to plug the gap.

But before he could get into position, Lin Quan had already passed the ball.

Immediately afterwards, a green figure rushed over like lightning, appeared here first, and took away the pass that Lin Quan passed over.

Danger!

Dante and goalkeeper Neuer both sounded the alarm bell in their hearts. The opponent is very likely to shoot directly from this position! At this time, De Bruyne also bent his bow and arrow, pulled his right foot back, leaned back, and completed the preparation before shooting! Neuer saw the opponent's posture and knew that this was a heavy artillery, so he immediately adjusted his position and prepared to fly to save the shot.

Dante put his hands behind his back, slightly tilted his body, and raised his right leg, trying to block the opponent's shot.

It is very painful when heavy artillery fire hits your body, and in serious cases you may even get kicked.

Therefore, when intercepting the opponent's heavy artillery, the defensive players need to overcome their fear and dare to step forward to block the shot. This requires a lot of courage!

De Bruyne saw what the two men did, but unexpectedly did not choose to shoot. Instead, he raised the ball high and gently lifted it up. With a lob pass, the ball passed Dante and into the penalty area.

At the same time, another green figure rushed into the penalty area from the left side of Bayern's penalty area at an extremely fast speed.

Werder Bremen's No. 10 received the ball in the penalty area! At this time, the only thing left in front of him was the Bayern goalkeeper and the goal he was guarding!
