Chapter 394 Will

The halftime break was not long. When the fans in the stands finished their work and were ready to watch the game again, the players from both teams had already returned to the field.

At this moment, the Olympic Stadium, which had seemed a little messy just now, immediately erupted in thunderous cheers. Both the Blues fans who came with the team and the local fans of Bayern were cheering for their team crazily.

After the players from both sides took their positions, everyone's attention was immediately focused on the center circle.

There are Salihamidzic and Guerrero, and not far in front of them are Drogba and Wang Li.

The football was at Salihamidzic's feet. He stepped on the football with his right foot and looked up at Chelsea's formation. Guerrero was watching the referee from the side. It seemed that he was ready to rush forward at any time when he heard the whistle.

On the other hand, Drogba of Chelsea stood there with a kind face, looking harmless, but it was hard to make people think that he was harmless. Wang Li casually put his right hand on his waist and looked at the fans in the stands around him.

His eyes seemed casual, but in fact, if you look closely, you can find that the corner of his eyes is staring at the football under Salihamidzic's feet, and he is obviously planning to make a sudden steal.

"Beep..." The referee Temenk blew the whistle.

In an instant, Wang Li's body formed a black shadow in the midfield, and he rushed towards Salihamidzic quickly.

However, the latter was no rookie on the field. He was not in a hurry. He passed the ball to the backcourt with a heel and then headed towards Chelsea's hinterland.

Wang Li returned empty-handed.

The Blues fans who were about to cheer for Wang Li's outburst were frustrated and couldn't shout out. However, it was just a failed steal, so Wang Li didn't care. He just walked slowly towards the frontcourt. He ran very slowly, but he was always chasing the ball.

This may have made the Bayern defenders who were passing the ball in the backcourt a little nervous. Lizarazu even stopped the ball too far once, and he quickly kicked it to Hargreaves on the wing.

Although Hargreaves was challenged by Wang Li several times in the first half and his performance was not very good, head coach Magath did not replace him. In fact, his positioning in Bayern is not bad, at least he is an absolute main player. Although he is not good in defense, he is an important player for Bayern in offense. At the same time, his occasional powerful long-range shots can also increase Bayern's offensive firepower a lot.

This time, with Wang Li behind him, Hargreaves was not afraid of being intercepted. He took two steps forward steadily, and when he was intercepted by Joe Cole, he suddenly started quickly and passed Joe Cole in an instant.

He broke through

In the audience, Bayern fans gave their cheers to Hargreaves generously. They shouted to support this non-native English player, hoping that he could help the team get opportunities.

Hargreaves did a good job. After passing Joe Cole, he dribbled the ball straight to the bottom line and then passed it back to Frings who was following him.

Torsten Frings is 29 years old this year. He is now the main defensive midfielder of the German national team. His position has changed from the wing during the Korea-Japan World Cup to the current stable front center. In the European Cup last year, Torsten Frings played as the main midfielder and scored a goal against the Netherlands. He was one of the only two scorers for the German team in that tournament.

Last year, when Magath took over as Bayern coach, he bought him from Dortmund. It can be said that Magath was the one who facilitated his arrival at Bayern. However, his performance in the team was not good, and he could only barely occupy the starting position.

But it is undeniable that his long passes and occasional long shots are very sharp offensive weapons for Bayern. Many Bayern fans even call him the Beckham of Germany.

This time, Frings showed this ability again. He kicked the ball and passed it directly to the right side of the penalty area, where the young player Guerrero was.

There are three defensive players in the Chelsea penalty area, namely John Terry, Scott Parker and young player Glen Johnson. There are also two Bayern players, namely Guerrero and Ballack. In this situation, it is not easy for Guerrero to grab the ball. Two of Chelsea's three defenders are tall and strong, and they have an absolute advantage in heading the ball.

However, the three-man defense target was all on Ballack. This German midfielder was famous for his heading ability. His tall stature gave him a very strong innate advantage. The young-looking Guerrero was ignored.

And Frings' pass was also very accurate, which made it easy for Guerrero to receive the ball, and he even stopped the ball with his right foot.

It's really easy.

Guerrero's strength may not be outstanding, but his on-the-spot performance is pretty good. After getting the chance, he immediately changed direction to avoid Glen Johnson's interception. This action looked very casual. Of course, the main reason was that Chelsea defenders did not dare to commit fouls in the penalty area.

After dodging Johnson, Guerrero had a chance to shoot, and he immediately raised his foot to shoot

The ball was only about 10 meters away from the goal. Guerrero's shot was very steady and the speed of the ball was very fast. Under the eyes of everyone, the football instantly went to the left corner of Chelsea's goal, the bottom corner. It was a low shot.

Bayern fans are cheering

This type of ball is the most troublesome for goalkeepers, because if they want to defend it they have to fall to the ground and save the ball, but the probability of saving it is very small. This is even more difficult than saving a penalty kick, because in a penalty kick you know that the opponent will shoot, but in this type of ball you don't know when he will shoot.

But Thomas made a great contribution this time.

When Guerrero got the ball, he immediately tensed up and took a horse stance, ready to deal with crisis at any time. This was the starting move in the Fu Hu Quan atlas taught to him by Wang Li. This starting move could ensure that he could burst out at any time.

Now, when someone asks Thomas why he is successful, he always says with relish: "Alan is my master", which puzzles others.

Even Wang Li felt it was a shame to have such an apprentice, but Thomas enjoyed it.

This time, Thomas's super fast reaction speed allowed him to react instantly. The moment Guerrero raised his foot, he jumped to the left and pounced on

The cheers of Bayern fans came to an abrupt end

"Wow..." The whole audience was filled with nonsensical noise.

"pretty"

On Sky TV, Graham was excited again: "It was Thomas Clarke, this outstanding young player has made another contribution. He saved the shot that Bayern player was sure to score. He is so outstanding. He is the hope of England's goalkeeper."

The commentator of the court TV also commented: "This player is very capable. Seeing him reminds me of Buffon. He is really a genius."

Thomas's save was indeed beautiful, but in addition to his super fast reaction speed, a lot of luck was also involved in his ability to save the ball.

However, there are only success and failure in football, and now he has succeeded.

On the sidelines, head coach Mourinho looked up with pride and turned to look at Magath on the opposite side of the Bayern coaching bench. His expression seemed to say: "See, you have Kahn, who is really good, but we have a better goalkeeper, and our goalkeeper is only 19 years old. Your goalkeepers are already old. We have the present and the future, and you only have the present."

Magath felt as sick as if he had eaten a fly, even though he was about to celebrate the goal.

"When did Chelsea have such an outstanding goalkeeper? Isn't their main goalkeeper that Petr Cech?" At this time, he looked at Thomas on the court in confusion, turned his head and asked the team's first scout Zaher Kroos next to him.

It's no wonder Magath was confused. In the previous Champions League games, Cech played most of the time for Chelsea. In the last match against AC Milan, although Thomas played, Magath's eyes were always on other players and he ignored the goalkeeper position. Even if he noticed that the goalkeeper was not Cech, he would probably just think that he was injured or rotated.

Although the rotation of the goalkeeper position is a bit strange, Magath doesn't care about it.

"The goalkeeper you're talking about now?"

Kroos turned to look at Magath, but with a 'are you kidding me' expression on his face: "That's Thomas Clarke. He has long replaced Cech as the starting goalkeeper. In recent games, he has been the starting goalkeeper for Chelsea."

Kroos didn't understand why Magath had never heard of Thomas. You know, the hottest players in the European football market are Thomas and Cech. Chelsea has two strong goalkeepers. Although they are rich, they will definitely sell one in the summer transfer window - no goalkeeper is willing to be a substitute.

Looking at Kroos' expression, Magath frowned and said nothing.

Bayern has Kahn, the absolute main goalkeeper. How can he pay attention to the goalkeepers in the transfer market?

…………

Although Bayern failed to score a goal in this attack, it gave Bayern a lot of confidence.

After the team scored the first goal in the first half, their attack failed to pose much threat to Chelsea's defense, but now the team almost scored a goal at the beginning of the game. If it weren't for the opponent's goalkeeper's outstanding performance, the score would have been equalized by now.

It is undeniable that Chelsea's defense is tight, but it is not unbreakable.

As a result, Bayern's attack became more fierce.

On the court, Ballack was always wandering around the front court looking for opportunities.

As the pillar of Bayern's midfield, Ballack was under great pressure before the war. Many media compared him with Chelsea's Lampard and Wang Li, and concluded that his personal ability was not much different from Lampard's, but his overall view was slightly worse, and he was not comparable to Wang Li at all.

Of course, these are the conclusions of the English media. The German media believes that he is better than Lampard, but they do not think he is better than Wang Li.

In comparison with Wang Li, the Germans gave Ballack another evaluation: strong header ability and more offensive momentum

But Ballack himself knew that this evaluation was just said by the Germans to comfort themselves and him. In fact, in the minds of the public, he and Wang Li are still not comparable. After all, there is a big gap between an offensive core who scores 2 goals in a game and a semi-core who scores one goal in 2 games.

Ballack was not convinced in his heart, but he cared more about the result of the game.

Now, Bayern Munich is behind. Although he does not have much affection for Bayern, he does not want to disappoint the fans and he wants to win.

He must work hard. This is the spirit of a professional player and an unyielding will.

The will of the stars, the soul of the stadium
