Chapter 716: This old man Heynckes is so bad!
On the evening of February 20th, in the 23rd round of the Bundesliga, the Bavarian derby, Bayern challenged Nuremberg away.
Strictly speaking, this isn't a match worth watching.
Bayern is far ahead and leading the Bundesliga standings. Nuremberg is ranked 17th in the Bundesliga and relegation is a high probability event.
In the match between these two teams, even if Bayern is playing away, it will be no problem for them to win.
But before the game, Ribery was injured again.
The Frenchman had just been out for four months due to injury. After finally returning, he was injured again after playing just a few games.
Fortunately, this time it was only a minor injury, but it is still worrying.
As the team had just faced AC Milan in the middle of the week, Heynckes made rotations for this game.
Contento replaced Marcelo in the starting lineup, Badstuber also appeared in the starting lineup, and with Toni Kroos and Thomas Muller, Bayern arranged a younger lineup.
In the first half, Thomas Muller's goal opened the scoring for Bayern, but after the second half, Gundogan helped Nuremberg equalize the score, and the two sides returned to the same starting line.
The game then fell into a stalemate and no one could break the situation.
In the 65th minute of the second half, seeing that the team had been unable to break the deadlock, Heynckes finally lost his patience and immediately made a substitution, replacing Klose with Su Dong.
…
In the 77th minute, after Bayern's midfielder intercepted the ball, Schweinsteiger stopped quickly in the midfield and sent a long pass over the top.
The ball fell accurately behind Nuremberg's defense.
Su Dong quickly made an offside move and quickly moved forward. After Schweinsteiger's long pass was stopped in the left side of the penalty area, he faced goalkeeper Schäfer nine meters in front of the goal. He first made a feint, then shot with his left foot. The ball passed through Schäfer's right side and just hit the left post into the net.
Two to one!
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"Just after coming on as a substitute, Su Dong used a beautiful offside move to create a one-on-one opportunity and scored another goal for Bayern."
“Two to one!”
"Every time Su Dong plays, he can score goals for Bayern, and tonight is no exception."
…
Bayern finally defeated Nuremberg 2-1 away from home thanks to Su Dong's goal and won the Bavarian derby.

…………
A week later, on February 27th, in the 24th round of the Bundesliga, Bayern faced Hamburg at home.
This is a very special day.
One hundred and ten years ago, on February 27, 1900, Bayern Munich was officially established! In order to celebrate the 110th anniversary of the club, Bayern Munich held a series of celebrations. In the past week, the football atmosphere of the whole Munich was mobilized, and the whole city cheered for Bayern.
Coincidentally, on the anniversary day, Beidawang Hamburg welcomed the German North-South Derby.
Bayern fans are full of anticipation for this game, and are particularly eager for the team to beat Hamburg at home as the best gift to celebrate the team's 110th anniversary.
The same is true for the team.
Heynckes sent out all the main players in this game, even Robben who had just recovered from injury was arranged to start, not to mention Su Dong.
On the night of the game, the entire Allianz Arena was filled with cheers and celebrations from Bayern fans, especially the huge 110th anniversary number on the presidential stand, which was extremely spectacular and made people feel the love and passion of Bayern fans for the club.
But when the game really starts, Hamburg will not show mercy to Bayern.
Hamburg head coach Labbadia made a harsh statement before the game that he and his team went south with the mentality of disrupting the game, with only one goal, which was to ruin Bayern's celebration.
Currently, Hamburg ranks fourth in the Bundesliga. If they work harder, they will have a chance to enter the Champions League zone. This is also the most ardent expectation of Labbadia and everyone in Hamburg, so in the game, the King of the North showed a very tenacious fighting spirit.
…
As soon as the game started, both sides started a fierce fight in the midfield.
The scene was extremely heated and tense, and no one was going to hold back.
In the 13th minute, after Bayern intercepted the ball in the midfield, Schweinsteiger made a low pass and accurately sent the ball behind the two central defenders. Su Dong immediately started and shook off the defensive players at the fastest speed. After successfully making an offside, he got the ball and rushed into the penalty area.
At the front of the penalty area, facing the attacking goalkeeper Rost, Su Dong shot the ball lightly, which flew over Rost's head and into the goal line of the Hamburg team.
One to zero!
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
The entire Allianz Arena seemed to have erupted like a volcano in an instant.
All Bayern fans burst into extremely hot passion in an instant and cheered for Su Dong on the field.
Su Dong also ran all the way to the sidelines, pulled up his jersey, revealing a white T-shirt underneath with the Arabic numerals 19004 written on it. This was a commemorative T-shirt for Bayern's 110th anniversary celebration.
Bayern's players also rushed over and pulled up their jerseys, revealing that they were all wearing such T-shirts underneath.
The fans at the scene became even more excited and the atmosphere in the stadium became even more heated.
…
After Sudong scored the first goal, Bayern launched a fierce attack on Hamburg.
In the following minutes, Robben and Ribery took turns to get the chance to shoot, but both failed to score.
But Bayern's attack became more and more active, and Ribery and Robben then made a cross-position switch.
In the 18th minute, in a quick counterattack, Robben dribbled the ball all the way along the left side, broke through Hamburg's right back Demel, and sent a cross from the left side of the penalty area.
In the middle of the penalty area, Su Dong followed closely behind, made a high-speed run, predicted the landing point of the ball, and without waiting for it to land, he volleyed the ball directly, making a powerful shot and blasted the ball into the goal that was close at hand.
The whole shot was extremely brutal, but it gave people a hearty sense of pleasure and was full of violent aesthetics.
Hamburg's defenders and goalkeeper Rossiter were all stunned and stared at the team.
2-0! Su Dong scored twice!
Bayern's players rushed out of the field again, and once again pulled up their jerseys, revealing the commemorative T-shirt.
…
After scoring two goals in a row, Bayern continued to launch a fierce attack on Hamburg.
The King of Beida was forced to defend himself strictly.
But in the 77th minute of the second half, Badstuber made a long pass from the backcourt, Su Dong grabbed the first point and headed the ball behind the defense line. Ribery made a high-speed run and received the ball on the left side of the penalty area. Facing Demel who had returned to defense, he dribbled the ball flexibly and cut inside. After shaking off Demel, he kicked a curved ball with his right foot, scoring another goal for Bayern.
Three to zero! The entire Allianz Arena erupted in thunderous cheers, and all the fans, with the joy of the festival, gave waves of cheers and applause to the players on the field.
Afterwards, Heinckrodt deliberately replaced Su Dong in advance and let him receive the cheers and applause of the fans.
With two shots and one assist, Su Dong became the best player in this key battle, bringing a perfect end to Bayern's 110th anniversary celebration!
The Bayern fans in the stands also understood, and they all gave Su Dong warm applause and cheers at the top of their lungs.
…
In the end, Bayern defeated Hamburg 3-0, giving the best gift for the 110th anniversary celebration!

…………
A week later, in the 25th round of the Bundesliga, Bayern challenged Cologne away.
After a long struggle, Cologne finally made it out of the relegation zone, but its ranking is still low.
Bayern was distracted by the Champions League in the middle of the week and did not dare to be careless. Therefore, they sent out all the rotation and substitute lineups in this game, leaving enough elite players to prepare for the Champions League knockout round in the middle of the week.
The result was a 1-1 draw with Cologne away from home.
Podolski scored against his former club in the first half for Cologne, but Toni Kroos pulled one back for Bayern in the second half.
In the end, the two sides shook hands and made peace with a score of one to one.
…………
…………
In the middle of the week, the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 knockout round.
In the away game with a 3-1 win in the first leg, Heynckes fully demonstrated his qualities as an old man with a slow growth spurt.
During the game, Bayern focused on defense and did not compete with AC Milan for the ball. Instead, they focused on counterattacks and attacked hard whenever they got the chance.
Leonardo's team suffered a crushing defeat at home, so they had to score more than three goals away from home, so they attacked from the start.
There is no other way. Time is limited. If we don’t hurry up and score a goal, AC Milan will really give up.
Milan's attack at the beginning was indeed effective, but they were still a little short of scoring a goal. However, as they attacked more and more anxiously, Bayern seized an opportunity in the 13th minute and launched a quick counterattack.
Robben took the ball on the right and passed it diagonally back to the right baseline. Lahm ran all the way, caught up with the ball and passed it into the penalty area.
Su Dong overpowered Thiago Silva and scored a header to open the scoring for Bayern!
One to zero!
This goal actually did not have a big impact on AC Milan, because they still needed to score three goals, and they were more hurt by Bayern's counterattack.
Afterwards, Milan's attack became a little cautious.
They were also very worried and didn't dare to let Bayern counterattack again.
This bad old man Heynckes is really bad. When he saw Milan didn't press forward, he was happy to shrink back.
So, Bayern's retreat directly extended to the second half.
What's worse, Heynckes asked Bayern to launch a direct attack at the start of the second half.
Damn, this is completely beyond Leonardo and Milan players' expectations, okay?
Under Bayern's sudden pressure at the start, Pirlo made a mistake in passing the ball back to Thiago Silva. The Brazilian player stopped the ball too far, and Ribery seized the opportunity to send a through ball. Su Dong quickly inserted himself, blocked Nesta with his body, and shot from the left side of the penalty area, scoring another goal for Bayern! 2-0! The total score was 5-1!
This is going to be exciting! Leonardo and Milan's morale is completely broken.
Everyone can see that under this situation, it is basically impossible to reverse the situation.
Bayern and Heynckes have a firm grip on AC Milan, and Milan is completely powerless.
In the end, Bayern defeated AC Milan 2-0 at home and 3-1 away, with a total score of 5-1, and successfully qualified for the quarterfinals of the Champions League.
