Chapter 59: Lucky's Problem
Robben is dumbfounded!
This also means that Arsenal's tactics are very successful. After all, their tactics themselves are aimed at Robben. Google search reading
Limit the impact of this old Dutch man from various aspects.
Wenger also breathed a long sigh of relief on the sidelines.
Lucky, the single defensive midfielder, withstood the pressure. If Lucky was blown away, Arsenal would really not know how to play the game.
Fortunately, Lucky lived up to Wenger's expectations!
Compared with last season, Lucky this season appears to be more comfortable in confronting Robben.
Of course, Bayern Munich also noticed this problem.
And their choice was decisive.
Switch sides and fight!
Robben's path doesn't work.
They use the right as their offensive line.
Although Ribery is injured, Bayern Munich has Gotze on the right wing.
This talented player that Bayern spent 37 million euros to dig out from Dortmund, Mario Gotze!
"Mario, let's start kicking you on the wing."
Cross said towards Gotze.
Gotze's eyes lit up. After coming to Bayern, his performance has been tepid. He thinks this is the reason for the tactical focus. After all, he performed very well in Dortmund.
Now that Robben is in trouble, Bayern needs him, and his tactical status will also improve. This is what Gotze hopes.
"no problem!"
Gotze nodded fiercely, his heart burning.
On the other side, Arsenal still defended Robben tightly.
Cross was holding the ball near the center circle, and Lucky subconsciously moved towards Robben, but the moment Cross took off, Lucky's body suddenly stopped, then turned around and ran towards the other one.
At the same time, Lucai shouted:
"It's the right wing!"
Lucky's roar echoed throughout the entire stadium, and Arsenal's defense players also reacted quickly. It can be seen that the entire defense line tilted towards the right side at an extremely fast speed.
As soon as Gotze got the ball, Lucky rushed to the position near Gotze and took the lead in fighting to delay time.
Arsenal's defense also followed suit, directly blocking Bayern Munich's offensive line.
"Shit!"
Cross waved his kick angrily, his eyes fixed on the Chinese not far away.
Why is this guy's defensive sense so sharp?
As soon as he passed the ball, this guy had already reacted and at the same time led Arsenal's defense to start a quick shift.
And Arsenal’s defense line shifts too quickly, right?
Lucky rushed over in a hurry, but Gotze's speed had already picked up.
Although some interference was carried out, it was not completely contained.
Lucky could only chase after Gotze, after all, speed was not his strong point.
Gotze's breakthrough was extremely sharp. He changed direction twice, passed Jenkinson, and immediately completed the cross.
Mertesacker and Mandzukic compete for the top spot.
But Mandzukic did not have much game time this season, and his state fluctuated severely.
On the other hand, Mertesacker was in excellent header form, earning the first point very steadily and completing the clearance.
Seeing this, Lucky couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He stopped and looked at the short figure not far away.
Gotze is not tall, only 176 centimeters tall, but this guy is flexible with his feet and is a great threat in the frontcourt.
Suddenly, if Lucai hadn't reacted quickly, the ball would have been dangerous.
At this stage, Gotze has not yet been tortured by injuries. He is still the same 'Super Mario' and is at the peak of his career.
Arsenal focused too much attention on Robben, but ignored Gotze's existence.
Now Bayern Munich obviously wants to use both wingers together. Lucky understands that the real test is coming.
"Arsenal's reaction was very quick. It should be said that Kai's reaction was very quick. He has a natural keen sense on the defensive end and directed Arsenal to carry out a quick coordinated defense."
After Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray finished speaking, he paused and said with a hint of worry; "But the danger is even greater. Bayern Munich's two wingers have become more intense. Robben is enough to give Arsenal a headache." , Gotze's sudden advances from time to time will also cause Arsenal's defense a lot of trouble.
As the receiver said, when Bayern activated both wings and relied on Kroos to complete the transfer work, Arsenal's defense became extremely difficult.
Lucky couldn't just fall to one side and ignore the other side.
Therefore, he can only stand in the middle.
In this way, although the restriction is greatly reduced, it can respond and command better.
Yes!
Lucky almost gave up personal defense, mainly because he couldn't defend himself.
Lucky's speed is not its strong point.
Because he is sitting in the middle, he cannot prepare well, so in most cases he starts hastily, which creates more of a delaying effect, and then uses coordinated defense to restrict the opponent's wings.
But this defensive strength was ultimately greatly reduced.
Gotze started to exert his strength, and Robben's breakthrough gradually gained momentum.
Arsenal encountered the biggest crisis since this game.
"Relying on Gotze to activate Robben's point, Guardiola's tactics worked." Zhan Jun sighed.
He could see that Lucky was a little exhausted.
Arsenal's sweeping efforts in the midfield are also gradually reducing.
Guardiola completely caught the point that Lekai was not fast and targeted it.
Guardiola on the sidelines also showed a smile on his face.
There is no perfect genius in this world!
He admitted that Lekai has strong defensive ability and full functionality, and is the midfielder that every head coach dreams of.
But Lekai also has shortcomings!
That is speed!
In the case of a single midfielder, Lekai's speed will become a shortcoming.
With both wings flying together, a slow midfielder can't manage it.
Guardiola turned his head and looked at Wenger with a smile on his lips.
'I won this round! '
Wenger looked at Lekai and suddenly sighed.
So, young players lack experience!
Sometimes, he really thinks Lekai is a bit stubborn.
Bayern Munich's frontcourt hand throw, taking this opportunity, Wenger caught the retreating Walcott and said; "Let Kai retreat deeper, his position is too forward!"
Walcott nodded.
Just after returning to the field, before he could pass the message, the referee had already blew the whistle, and Bayern Munich suddenly launched an attack.
The ball was thrown directly to Kroos, who passed it to Gotze.
Lekai sprinted towards Gotze, and at this moment, Gotze suddenly stopped and turned sideways, fiercely kicking the ball.
Lekai's eyes suddenly widened.
"Nimma!"
His calves suddenly swelled, and he kicked the ground fiercely, instantly completing the acceleration and rushing towards the ball's transfer route.
Seeing the ball getting closer and closer, Lekai directly put down the shovel, trying to intercept the ball.
His right foot stretched straight, and he desperately hooked the ball with his toes.
There was a touch from the toes.
Touched?
No! It just touched it, and it did not change the trajectory of the ball, but only reduced some of its speed.
Robben saw this scene and quickly started to rush towards the ball.
He got the ball near the penalty area line and shot at the ball.
Koscielny made a block.
Lekai screamed: "It's a fake move!"
But it was too late, Robben flicked his left foot sideways, creating space for shooting.
He then slammed his left foot towards the ball.
Robben's shooting ability is very strong.
The ball was close to the ground and rushed to the far point on the left.
The angle was extremely tricky!
Arsenal goalkeeper Szczesny wanted to make a save, but it was still an inch short.
Swish! !
The ball went into the net!
In the first half, in the 26th minute, Bayern Munich scored a goal with the connection between Gotze and Robben!
German commentator: "Goal!!! Robben!!! Tricky shot!"
"In the connection between Gotze and Robben, Arsenal's wall began to collapse, and their trusted genius midfielder was fooled!"
"This goal was entirely caused by the gap in the midfielder position. Wenger trusted Kai too much. You know, he is only 20 years old and he is still a child! He can't fight against Robben!"
The entire Allianz Arena, Bayern fans were cheering wildly.
After 26 minutes of offensive and defensive confrontation, Bayern Munich scored the first goal.
This is extremely wonderful news for them.
Robben!
Robben!
Robben!
Bayern fans at the scene were calling Robben's name.
And Robben and his teammates celebrated wildly in the corner area.
Lekai got up from the ground and clenched his fists in hatred.
Although he was very unhappy, he was broken through by Bayern at this point!
"Kai!" Walcott came over.
Lucky turned around: "My problem, I will find a chance to make up for this mistake."
Walcott was stunned for a moment, then smiled; "What are you talking about, you have done well enough, I am here to pass on the message, the professor asked me to tell you that you need to retreat deeper."
Lucky blinked.
Walcott shrugged and said, "The professor said that you have a good sense of position, but it is precisely because of this that you tend to get stuck in some problems!"
"Why do you have to fight them in the defensive midfielder position? If you retreat deeper, you can better estimate the advances on the left and right sides."
Lekai frowned and said, "If so, my connection with Cazorla"
"Don't worry about it, Cazorla will find a way, don't forget, we are a team, when you are in trouble, you can also choose to trust us!"
Walcott said very seriously, and Lekai took a long breath and said:
"Okay, guys, I won't participate in the offense, I will focus on defense and won't let them expand the score, and your task is to score goals!"
Walcott; "No problem!"
