Super Marshal

A battle between technology and body!

This is what Gao Han said at the pre-match press conference when commenting on the upcoming showdown between the Champions League giants.

Facts have proved that Bayern Munich's body seems very cramped in front of the technically sophisticated Inter Milan.

Only five minutes into the game, Ibrahimovic and Cristiano Ronaldo were surrounded by three Bayern Munich defenders in a small area in the frontcourt. He took the ball out of the siege and passed it back to the midfield, winning the applause of the San Siro stadium.

Perhaps due to his incompatibility with the climate in Milan, although Magath formed the strongest lineup at San Siro, the players still failed to exert their expected power. Instead, they were lost in the mistakes of Inter Milan players. Among the ball distribution and personal dribbling.

Playing away from home, the mentality was restricted, which made Bayern Munich's crazy pressing and pressing appear to be a bit too hard. Not only did it not have the expected effect, but it caused itself to be at a loss and made frequent mistakes.

Only eight minutes into the game, Demichelis made a mistake in passing the ball in the backcourt, and Cristiano Ronaldo seized the opportunity. He kicked the ball with his right foot from the left rib and dropped it into the small penalty area. Ibrahimovic The two ace centers and Adriano were in place at the same time. In the end, Adriano hit the top five meters in front of the goal.

After that, Cristiano Ronaldo forced a breakthrough with the ball from the left and caused a foul. Figo took a free kick into the penalty area. Van Buyten's header almost caused an own goal, which shocked everyone. Covered in cold sweat.

But two minutes later, Cristiano Ronaldo was still on the left. He suddenly cut inside with the ball and then knocked the ball with his heel and passed it to Evra on the left. The French left back dribbled the ball at high speed and passed in, creating a corner kick.

Veron took a corner kick, and Cambiasso from the outside of the penalty area suddenly shot a volley with his right foot, slightly over the crossbar.

But soon, Inter Milan's frantic attack finally paid off.

Maicon and Adriano cooperated in a one-two on the right, and Ram was shoveled out of bounds. However, Maicon quickly threw the ball directly into the penalty area. When Ibrahimovic stopped the ball in the penalty area and turned around, He was pulled to the ground by Van Buyten.

The referee directly awarded a penalty kick without hesitation.

Judging from the slow-motion replay of the live TV broadcast, Van Buyten did commit a foul, and the penalty kick was undisputed.

Ibrahimovic personally took the shot and calmly sent the penalty kick into the lower left corner, beyond Kahn's reach.

But just two minutes later, Maicon quickly made a pass from the right and Ibrahimovic blocked Van Buyten with his body in the penalty area. After stopping the ball with his chest, he turned around and volleyed with his right foot, hitting again. , rewriting the score to three to zero!

In just twenty-five minutes, Inter Milan scored three goals in a row and completely stunned Bayern Munich.

But what is even more surprising is that the Nerazzurri’s three midfielders, headed by Figo, Veron and Cambiasso, firmly control the situation on the field and continuously create offensive opportunities for the frontcourt. Let the noise in front of Bayern Munich be trembling.

This also makes the three giants of Bayern Munich sitting in the stands ashamed.

…………

…………

"It's like a one-sided massacre!"

Sitting in the stands, football emperor Beckenbauer shook his head and sighed.

He is now watching helplessly as his favorite team is being ravaged by his opponents but unable to do anything.

In less than half an hour, he conceded three goals. What else could he say?

"We were unlucky. We conceded the goal at the beginning, and the players' mentality was indeed a bit bad." Rummenigge shook his head and sighed. He felt that the main reason was that the goal came too early.

"You are wrong." Beckenbauer said with a wry smile, "On the football field, luck is also a manifestation of strength. Inter Milan only has such tyrannical strength to seize such luck."

Rummenigge and Hoeness thought about it carefully and nodded in agreement.

Who says it's not?

"Of course, Inter Milan is indeed very strong, but the main reason is that we ourselves are too weak. We should reflect on it."

Beckenbauer's words made Rummenigge and Hoeness also fall into deep thought.

As the flag team of the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich has always performed well in European competitions, but now facing Inter Milan, they actually conceded three goals in less than half an hour. If you count, the entire game How many should be lost?

"Magath's use of troops is very problematic. I think he is no longer suitable to be the team's head coach." Hoeness thought for a while and said.

To say that Magath is very strong, he does have a very strong side, but in terms of team discipline, he is very incomprehensible.

Let's just talk about Pizarro. He was fined by the traffic police for drunk driving three days ago, but instead of being punished within the team, he was made the starter and entrusted with important tasks in such an important game. What does this mean?

Could it be said that as long as the ball is played well, one can not abide by the team's discipline without being punished?

The most important reason why Germany is called the Deutsche Chariot is that discipline is the basis for team formation. As the Bundesliga class leader, Bayern Munich is even more so.

Magath's actions have caused a lot of controversy within the team.

"During his tenure, we did not win a single victory against a strong team in away games in the Champions League. There are indeed some problems with his formation, which are very worthy of discussion." Rummenigge sighed.

There are some head coaches who can thrive in middle and lower-tier teams and can establish absolute authority. However, once they reach a wealthy team, they will be very uncomfortable with the gameplay of the wealthy team, and their performance will decline, and they will eventually become disgraced. After leaving the coaching position of a wealthy club, some coaches even failed to recover.

There is no doubt that Magath's results during his tenure at Bayern Munich did not meet the expectations of the management.

Bayern Munich's three giants are all outstanding professional players, and they are very familiar with professional football. They all know what the problem is with Bayern Munich today.

The team's own strength has indeed been weakened, but Magath is also to blame.

"The head coach does have problems, but our management should also reflect on it, especially in terms of signings." When Beckenbauer said this, he suddenly envied Inter Milan, because during Gao Han's coaching period, Inter Milan did not invest enough. Although there are many players, they have introduced a group of high-level reinforcements and built a strong European team in a short period of time.

"Perhaps, we should no longer just focus on the Bundesliga, but start looking for some stars in European football who can bring qualitative changes to our team and provoke a lot of team players."

Although there are currently a number of well-known players and international players in the Bayern Munich team, such as Lahm who became famous in the World Cup, Brazilian international Lucio, Dutch striker Ma Kai, Dutch midfielder Van Bommel, etc., these players are all strong players. But he is not the commander-in-chief, nor can he become the leading star of the team.

What Bayern Munich needs is Cristiano Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic and Adriano from Inter Milan, and Ronaldinho from Barcelona, ​​because they can arouse the strength of the team. Qualitative change.

"We all know that, but how can such a star be so easy to find?" Hoeness shook his head helplessly and sighed, "And you also know that we are not as rich as Real Madrid and Barcelona. Every penny spent has to be paid. Budget wisely.”

After the Kirsch Group went bankrupt, the operations of the Bundesliga teams fell into a difficult situation. Although they have improved over the years, especially Bayern Munich, whose commercial operating income has developed rapidly, they still cannot afford to burn money.

Looking at today's European football, there are only a few teams that can afford to spend money.

Real Madrid and Barcelona are Spanish membership teams, and Chelsea has a wealthy owner as its backer. As for other teams, even Inter Milan and AC Milan, which burned a lot of money in the past, have tightened their money in the past two seasons.

In this case, Bayern Munich spent 20 to 30 million euros, let alone burning money, and had to think about it for more than half a year.

"Difficulties are for sure, but it is still very necessary to work hard, tighten your belt, bring in one or two big stars, and improve the team's strength. Otherwise, we will be even less competitive next season." Bei Kenbauer admonished.

Rummenigge and Hoeness still attach great importance to Beckenbauer's opinions and know very well what the football emperor means.

That's not wrong at all.

Professional football is a money-burning game.

Of course, how to burn it and whether it is worth burning is another matter.

"We will discuss this matter carefully when we get back, but the most urgent task right now is to determine the next step for the team."

Although the game only lasted thirty minutes, it completely exposed Magath's weaknesses and Achilles' heel, and also made Bayern Munich's management completely cold towards him. His dismissal was inevitable, and it was only a matter of time.

Who can be replaced as head coach?

"Looking at the past few years, from Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Arsenal, Real Madrid, and now Inter Milan, the development trend of European football in recent years has been very obvious. Physical strength confrontation is gradually being eliminated and is struggling. On the contrary, teams that insist on technology and passing and control style are becoming more and more popular."

When Beckenbauer said this, he pointed to the game on the court, "Inter Milan is the best proof, and last season's Champions League final was a duel between Barcelona and Arsenal, which was also a powerful proof. On the contrary, someone like Mourinho Austria's Chelsea, Benitez's Liverpool, Capello's Juventus, and us all basically had a hard time."

Rummenigge and Hoeness nodded, and they both saw this.

Therefore, they decided to invite Gao Han to coach before, but Gao Han declined.

"Previously, we decided to launch a reform of youth training, which was to promote technicalization. We have made great achievements in recent years. Klinsmann has done a good job in the national team, and we at Bayern Munich must quickly follow suit. "

When Hoeness heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Is it possible to recruit Klinsmann to the club to coach?"

Rummenigge also thought it was a good idea when he heard it.

The performance of the German national team in the World Cup has won unanimous recognition, and Klinsmann's reforms are indispensable.

"In addition, there are not many head coaches in European football who pursue a pass-and-control style of play. Ancelotti is one, and Rijkaard of Barcelona is also quite good."

Hoeness feels that these three head coaches are relatively promising. As for Arsenal head coach Wenger, there is no need to think about it. It is impossible for him to leave the Gunners.

But the Big Three also know in their hearts that these candidates are not the best choices.

Although Klinsmann has successfully reformed the national team, he has no convincing results in the club and lacks experience; Ancelotti has been criticized for his conservative playing style in the past few years, that is, when he came to AC After Milan, after having many creative midfielders, he developed a passing and controlling style of play based on food.

As for Rijkaard, after his assistant Tenkat left the team, his coaching level was also highly doubtful.

Only him...

Bayern Munich's three giants all looked at the man in front of the home team's coaching bench.
