Chapter 1010 is really not a good thing!
Chelsea reversed Bayern Munich! The news quickly spread around the world.
The media and fans around the world were shocked by this and also gave high praise to Chelsea's reversal.
Whether it was Drogba's header before the end of the game, Cech's save of Robben's penalty in the final stages of stoppage time, or Terry and Lampard's dedicated efforts throughout the game, they all showed the elements that a classic reversal drama should have, and the media and fans all over the world talked about it with relish.
Chelsea's reversal was more due to the tenacious perseverance of the veterans. This also led many British media to single out Villas-Boas and continue to criticize the Portuguese, believing that Villas-Boas made a big mistake in abandoning Drogba, Lampard and Terry.
Now, Di Matteo has re-employed this central axis, and Chelsea's fighting power has not only been restored, but even these veterans have performed very well, and have found a second spring, leading Chelsea to reverse Bayern Munich and reach the Champions League final.
Is there anything more convincing than this?
If there were still some people who were crying out for injustice for Boas when he was sacked, now almost everyone has concluded that Chelsea made the right decision to fire him this time.
Compared to the British media who were vying to praise Chelsea's unexpected reversal, the German media were more lamenting the regret and embarrassment of Bayern Munich's failure to score in the favorable situation and ultimately losing a good opportunity.
Head coach Heynckes said after the game that Bayern should have won, but unfortunately, the team lacked in seizing opportunities, resulting in repeated waste of opportunities when they needed goals the most, and ultimately losing the right to advance.
Bild directed its criticism at several stars in the team, believing that the most important factor for Bayern's failure in the semi-finals for two consecutive seasons was problems with the team's offense. With so many shots in the game, they only scored one goal, which was simply unacceptable.
Kicker magazine even directly criticized Robben.
As Bayern's top star this season, Robben has performed very well both in the league and the Champions League, but if he wants to be the pillar of a top team, it is far from enough to rely on his usual performance. It depends more on his performance at critical moments.
If Robben had scored the penalty in the final stage of the game, he would have won unanimous praise, but unfortunately, Robben missed the precious penalty, which made him subject to overwhelming doubts.
This is also the risk of being a star player.
The greater the honor, the greater the responsibility, and the pressure that comes with it.
Kicker magazine believes that Robben does not have the ability to carry the burden of Bayern. The missed penalty at a critical moment and the failure to lead the team to beat Chelsea in the decisive battle prove that Robben's hard power is not enough.
"After two consecutive seasons of being eliminated in the semi-finals, Bayern Munich's performance is not satisfactory. This is not because Bayern's fans have become picky, but because Bayern has been too brilliant in the past few years, so that people have become accustomed to it winning the championship, and feel that not winning the championship is a failure."
"After consecutive defeats in the semi-finals, it is not difficult to see that Bayern has indeed declined significantly in terms of hard power and tolerance compared to before. The most obvious is the offensive end. Su Dong's departure has brought irreparable defects to Bayern's forward line. Gomez can't fill the vacancy left by Su Dong, and Ribery and Robben are not enough to bear the burden of Su Dong."
Kicker magazine analyzed that after Su Dong joined Manchester City, this much-questioned mercenary team suddenly became a top team in European football, and even defeated the giants all the way and reached the Champions League final. No matter whether it was the group stage or the knockout stage, every game was a tough battle, and Su Dong's performance was obvious to all.
"Bayern now lacks a leader and core like Su Dong!"
Not only Kicker magazine, but many Bayern Munich fans have expressed their nostalgia for Su Dong.
On the morning of the next day after the team suffered a tragic reversal by Chelsea, at the Bayern training base on Sebena Street, there were even Bayern fans who came to the scene wearing Su Dong's No. 9 jersey to express their nostalgia for Su Dong.
That was the happiest time for Bayern fans.
Unfortunately, Sudong now belongs to Manchester City.
…
Chelsea reversed Bayern and reached the Champions League final.
The two Premier League giants meet at the Allianz Arena!
This quickly sparked heated discussions among fans and media reporters around the world, because this was the first time in five years that Premier League teams met in the final again. What's interesting is that Chelsea lost to Manchester United led by Cristiano Ronaldo in the final that year.
Now, Chelsea has reached the final again and faced another Manchester team, Manchester City.
We lost last time, can we turn the situation around this time?
Abramovich has invested in Chelsea for so many years, and his biggest wish is to win a Champions League. Whether it is bringing in Shevchenko or firing Mourinho, there is only one reason, and that is for the Champions League.
Now, Chelsea has finally made it to the Champions League final again, especially facing Manchester City, which is participating in the Champions League for the first time. Everyone in Chelsea is full of expectations and hopes that the team can achieve something in the Champions League and make a breakthrough.
The Daily Mail, which is close to Chelsea, leaked even more information. After the team reversed Bayern Munich, Abramovich issued instructions to the club management, asking the club to draw up a final reward as soon as possible, hoping to stimulate the team to continue to maintain a high level of performance in the final, strive to defeat Manchester City and win the first Champions League title in the club's history.
But the Daily Mail also revealed that Manchester City also offered an unprecedented reward, also wanting to challenge the club's first Champions League title in history.
It is undoubtedly quite interesting that two teams, both aiming for their first Champions League title in their club's history, meet in the Champions League final.
…………
…………
On the evening of April 30th, at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester.
Ferguson stood in front of the visiting team's coaching bench, watching the intense game on the field intently, occasionally turning his head to look at Manchester City's bench. Any movement there would make Ferguson nervous for a while.
Because Su Dong was sitting on the bench.
It is now the second half and the score between the two sides is still zero to zero.
Guardiola did not arrange Su Dong to start tonight, but let him sit on the bench.
This is actually understandable, because this game has little effect on both sides.
Manchester City has already won the league championship in advance, and Manchester United has also secured the second place in the league early on. The derby significance of this game is far greater than its league significance.
But this is Manchester City's home ground after all.
If Guardiola really wants to win and beat Manchester United twice, he will definitely replace Su Dong in the final stage of the game to strengthen the attack.
This is what Ferguson was wary of.
Guardiola is a young head coach that he is very optimistic about, but he is too eager to win, has no moral principles, and does not know how to respect the elderly. He always thinks that the younger generation will push the older generation out of the way and want to beat the older generation to death on the beach. Is this reasonable? But Ferguson had to admit that if Guardiola tried his best, it would be difficult for Manchester United to stop him.
The key point is that this guy Su Dong is too amazing.
Just as Ferguson was thinking about it, he saw a commotion on the Manchester City bench.
Su Dong stood up from his seat and slowly walked to the sidelines to warm up.
In fact, Ferguson didn't need to pay any attention at all. All the fans in the stadium were staring at the bench. As soon as Su Dong stood up, all the Manchester City fans cheered and shouted Su Dong's name frantically.
Is he going to play?
Ferguson's heart skipped a beat.
Damn, Guardiola is really not a good guy!
…
Amid Ferguson's complaints, Su Dong came on in the 75th minute to replace Dzeko.
Just eight minutes after coming on, Rooney dribbled the ball down the left side of the frontcourt and tried to break through Trippier, but he accidentally kicked the ball out of bounds, making it a throw-in for Manchester City.
The gap between the two sides in this game was very large, especially in terms of data.
Take the throw-ins for example, Manchester City got 14 throw-ins, while Manchester United only had two.
Yes, you read that correctly, only twice.
From this data, we can see that Manchester United's performance in this game was indeed very embarrassing, and they were passively beaten almost throughout the game.
Trippier quickly stepped forward, picked up the football, wiped it clean with his jersey, and threw it out quickly.
Toni Kroos volleyed the ball directly into the unguarded area in the middle.
Manchester United's deep midfield position has always been a weak point, especially in the absence of Carrick, it is more obviously exposed.
After Su Dong retreated and received the ball, there was no one defending him. After stopping the ball and turning around, he didn't hesitate and rushed forward with the ball.
Su Dong rushed forward with the ball at a very fast speed, and he specifically targeted the weak points in Manchester United's defense.
Outside the arc top area, Smalling decisively rushed forward to try to stop Su Dong, but unexpectedly, as soon as the two sides met, Su Dong made a fake move, dribbled the ball continuously, and directly dribbled past Smalling. He rushed to the left side of the arc top area with the ball, and without waiting for Ferdinand to rush forward to assist, he swung his left foot and shot.
The ball flew towards Manchester United's goal like a cannonball.
Although De Gea had been closely following Sudon's movements, his vision was partially blocked by Smalling and Ferdinand. Secondly, Sudon's continuous feints deceived Smalling and also confused De Gea, causing the Spanish goalkeeper to shoot sideways only after seeing Sudon's kick.
But now, it's too late.
The ball went straight into the left side of Manchester United's goal at lightning speed.
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"In the 84th minute, less than nine minutes after Su Dong came on the pitch, he scored the first goal for Manchester City with a wonderful left-foot volley!"
"Manchester City, playing at home, finally broke through Manchester United's goal with their 26th shot."
"This was also Su Dong's second shot after he came on the pitch."
"It is really efficient. I have to admire Su Dong's strong strength."
"Manchester United's central defenders can't stop Su Dong at all, especially when he rushes with the ball, he is absolutely unstoppable!"
