Football: The butcher in the midfield at the start, the magic bird stunned

Chapter 364 Commander Tu, the opponent's army has arrived at the Allianz Arena in Munich!
Chen Xiaoliang put the ball on the penalty spot, picked it up again, and then looked up at Kepa.

The Spanish goalkeeper had been standing on the penalty spot just now, with his hands on his hips, as if he was "helplessly" watching the referee's penalty.

However, Chen Xiaoliang's eyes were pitted and a sunken penalty spot was stepped on, which still exposed Kepa's tricks.

Facing Chen Xiaoliang's eyes, Kepa frowned, lowered his head and pretended to straighten his gloves.

Chen Xiaoliang bent down, stepped on the surrounding turf again, and put the ball on it again.

According to the order in the team, Rashford, B Fee, and Chen Xiaoliang are the top three penalty shooters, but B Fee has already left the field. Rashford saw Chen Xiaoliang's firm attitude, and this ball was created by Chen Xiaoliang on his own initiative. Rashford also gave himself a lot of assists and passes this season, so Rashford patted Chen Xiaoliang on the back to express his encouragement, and stood with his hips akimbo outside the penalty area and waited.

After Chen Xiaoliang set the ball up, he took a step back, pointed at the ball with his right foot, and aimed at the left side of the goal to make a few gestures.

Kepa certainly noticed the scene.He thought it was Chen Xiaoliang's psychological warfare.

Even the broadcasts in many countries think so, aiming at the false kick to the left, which is deliberately sending a signal to Kepa and disrupting his judgment.

Aiming to the left, the most obvious first-level judgment, this is a deliberate fake action, but actually kicks to the right.

To further understand the second level of judgment, it is to let the opponent's goalkeeper have the above idea, go to the right, but actually kick the left.

To understand further, if you guess the opponent's goal, you will think of the second floor. In fact, this wave is on the third floor and will kick to the right.

Kepa couldn't make up his mind for a while, but he also has his own way, which is to do the opposite, pointing with his right hand to the left side of the goal, which is his right side, which can be regarded as Chen Xiaoliang's behavior Same purpose.

"Beep!" The referee Atwell whistled, and Chen Xiaoliang, who retreated a few meters, began to run up.

Zhan Jun: "Xiao Liang runs up!"

"Guess the steps very well!"

"Hit left!"

"Wow! This goal is scored!"

"Kepa guessed the right direction and stretched out his hand, and the angle of Xiaoliang's ball was not tricky, but the speed of the ball was too fast."

"UI!"

After scoring the goal, Chen Xiaoliang rushed to the sidelines, jumped high and punched out, and pointed to No. 7 behind him with both thumbs after landing.

In fact, he didn't do psychological warfare just now, he simply aimed his foot at the left side of the goal.

Although 15's penalty ability is not weak, it is not too strong. In addition, Kepa is by no means a general among goalkeepers, so the ball is not necessarily sure.

But just like what Zhan Jun said, "only fast can't break", Chen Xiaoliang, who lacks precision but definitely has more than enough strength, is going to use a strong shot to solve his opponent.

3 to 2, the score leads again.

Zhan Jun: "This is already Xiaoliang's fourth goal in the new season! This round of Manchester City's away game against West Ham United has not yet started, so his current goals have been tied with Haaland, tied for first place in the scorer list !"

"In addition, he has 3 assists, the same as De Bruyne, and also tied for the top of the assist list!"

"Wow! A player ranks No. 1 in both rankings. Although the league has only played 4 rounds, it is enough to prove Xiaoliang's seamless connection and automatic adaptation to the Premier League!"

Zhang Lu: "The form is very good. Of course, today is also the first game against a strong team. Manchester United's opponents at the beginning of the new season are generally weak."

"It really takes time to play Arsenal, Liverpool, Newcastle, and especially Manchester City, to have a bigger spark."

Zhan Jun: "Don't forget, three days later they will have an away game against the Bundesliga giant, Bayern Munich!"

It just so happened that the players had just finished celebrating, and the camera came to the stands, where a man wearing a sun visor and an unfamiliar face was recording seriously.

Zhan Jun immediately showed his profound reserves of football knowledge: "Wow! Say Bayern, Bayern will be there! The person in the picture is Tuchel's assistant coach, Arnaud Michels, who can be called the right-hand man and caring confidant." !"

"After more than ten years of working together at Mainz, Dortmund, Chelsea, and Bayern, he appeared here today. In all likelihood, Tuchel sent him to inspect the status of Manchester United."

"After all, for the coach of Bayern Munich, the league championship can only be said to be a guarantee, and the performance in the Champions League is the embodiment of the coaching level."

On the field, the game continued.

Without Leo, Mudrick, who is physically weak, is replaced. Although the running position has become flexible and the defense has become more active, the threat on the left is still greatly reduced.

On the right side, after Timber gradually became familiar with Thuram, and Thuram was too aggressive in the first half, his physical strength began to decline after 70 minutes, and the offensive threat was much less.

In the middle lane, Enzuo followed Chen Xiaoliang and kept running. Although he was mentally prepared and knew that this old teammate's stamina level could be called a monster, but when Chen Xiaoliang kept running back and forth quickly without the ball, Enzuo gradually began to feel uncomfortable. Can't keep up.

Chen Xiaoliang ran more and more energetically, and his physical strength had already been fully recovered at this time.

Being equalized twice and leading again made the fans of Old Trafford very satisfied. The strong will that the team lacked for a long time seemed to be back, especially the hand-to-hand fight between Chen Xiaoliang and Leo.

Sometimes fans know that certain behaviors will be prohibited by the rules, but looking back, behaviors like Cantona's kicking fans, after a long time, make the fans feel a little happy and enmity. To put it simply, It's just cool.

Just like everyone knows that war is cruel and peace is precious, but when you look through history books and see that a general has been successful and his bones are ruined, "the cannon is fired and his mother is fired", it will still arouse the ambitions in many people's hearts.

If you really want the shells to fall on the roof of your own house, you will not use ambition.

The same is true for team leaders. Many people hope that players will be tough, and even dare to fight and kill, but there is a premise, don't get a red card or ban, otherwise it is stupid.

In the rest of the game, Pochettino changed his tactics a few more times, but Chen Xiaoliang, who retreated to the midfielder position, teamed up with Casemiro, not only blocked the middle, but also cooperated with the full-backs on both sides to open the side. The road is also tightly blocked.

Pochettino really had nothing to do. In the 78th minute, he replaced Enzo and Lukaku, played a double center forward, and then kept kicking high balls from both sides into the penalty area.

All of a sudden, Chelsea's high-altitude shells kept hitting Manchester United's penalty area, and it really felt like "the cannons are firing and blasting his mother".

Lukaku, who really wanted to prove himself in the Premier League, exerted 200% of his energy, fighting for the top, blocking, and running, but his increasingly unmanageable weight greatly affected his jumping. After leaving Sesco, he replaced the team's "strategic weapon"-the aircraft carrier Maguire, and played a pragmatic formation of five defenders.

Maguire is really not good at being faster than his feet and faster than turning around, but without the ground ball, it is purely high-altitude bombing, he can really do it.

Manchester United's first-choice captain and iron-clad substitute Leng relied on his own anti-aircraft firepower again and again, so that Chelsea's high-altitude bombing failed until the end of the game and failed to achieve results.

3 to 2, a goal battle, BIG7's first game Manchester United successfully defended the home court, and also gave Chelsea, who had a strong recovery this season and won three consecutive victories, their first defeat.

Manchester United, who has not been the big brother for many years, has won a wave of four consecutive victories and ranked first in the long-lost standings with 12 points.

但在身后，同是三胜一平的曼城和阿森纳积10分排在第2、3两名，本轮6比0大胜升班马谢菲尔德联队的利物浦和切尔西位列第4、5。

Newcastle, who defeated Tottenham by 2 goals in an away game, ranked sixth with 2 wins and 2 draws. Although they are not at the top, they have played Manchester City and Tottenham in the first four rounds. The two BIG6 teams also played Villa. For teams other than BIG7 to achieve such results, Eddie Howe's coaching ability has been unanimously recognized by the outside world.

A big battle made the starters except Chen Xiaoliang feel quite exhausted, but the team had no time to rest. They came to Carrington Base the next day after the game. To prepare for the game, simulate Bayern's tactics and play offensive and defensive drills.

Another day later, the team assembled in the morning and took the opportunity to go to Munich.

Unlike the hasty change after taking over halfway last season, Tuchel, who has a full summer of preparations, has already labeled Bayern his own "Tu Commander".

Although in the summer, they missed Osimhen because they were unwilling to bid with Chelsea, missed Kane because the players were unwilling to leave the Premier League, and missed Muani because they decided to go to Tottenham with the coach, but bought from Atlanta. The young striker Hoylund, who was left behind, put Shupomoting, who was thought to be the main center forward, on the bench with 2 goals after two games.

The 20-year-old Hoylund is already the main striker of the Danish national team. He scored 2 goals in 5 games in the European preliminaries. He joined Atlanta in the summer of 2022. He thought he was a future seed, but he did not expect to play nearly half of the time. When he came off the bench in the second half, he scored 33 league goals in 11 appearances in one season, and scored a total of 16 goals in all seasons, scoring 160 goal every 1 minutes. This is already among the ranks of efficient strikers in Serie A.

With the scarcity of pure centers, such a performance immediately became a potential target for the major giants.

In the end, Bayern beat Inter Milan and bought him for 5700 million euros. This season, he also used actions to repay Tuchel's trust.

Compared with Cesco, who was stereotyped as the fulcrum of the restricted area in Rome, the 191-height Hoylund was called the real little Harland by more people. He is not only strong in body, but also fast. Rand is also left-footed. Although there is still an obvious gap in shooting skills, the 20-year-old age and Tuchel's training have filled the outside world with expectations.

Chen Xiaoliang was also very puzzled. Last season in Serie A, Hoylund didn't play much in the two rounds against Atlanta. He didn't expect to become the starting center of the Bundesliga giants in a blink of an eye.

The away game and unfamiliar opponents are already full of challenges. Manchester United, who just arrived at Bayern on the second day, encountered an accident. Lima felt uncomfortable in his feet during training and was terminated early. He was immediately protected and flew to London for training. examine.

He was reimbursed for a metatarsal fracture last season. He finally recovered from his injury in the summer and is in good form in the new season, but he did not expect to face the possibility of a recurrence of the old injury before the game.

Ten Hag had to change the tactical arrangement, allowing Timber, who hadn't had much time with the team, to partner with Varane, who was rested in the last game, as a central defender, and Luke Shaw, who was rested, as the starting left back.

In other positions, such as Rashford, Casemiro and other players who almost start every game, Ten Hag also promised to give them a rest, but after playing Bayern.

At the press conference the day before the game, Ten Hag said two things:

1. The feeling of returning to the Champions League is very good. Manchester United must strive to advance from the death group;
Second, Bayern is very strong and is the favorite to win the championship, and Tuchel knows both the Bundesliga and the Premier League, so the game will be very difficult.

On the other side, Tuchel is more direct. He said that the biggest task of playing Manchester United is how to limit Chen Xiaoliang. If he can limit Chen Xiaoliang to less than 70%, then the victory will be much easier.

At 9:6 on the evening of September 18, the two sides came to the Allianz Arena in Munich.

Half an hour later, the starting rosters of both sides were announced, and a 4-2-3-1 formation was chosen at the same time.

For Bayern, the starting goalkeeper is the 37-year-old captain Neuer;
Left back Alfonso Davis, center back De Ligt partnered with Pavard, and right back was Cancelo who came over from Chelsea;

The double midfielder is Grafenberg partner Gretzka. The only surprise is that the midfielder did not go to this year's Golden Boy Award and Copa Award after Pedri and Garvey. Kimmich, who has been kicking the midfielder;
Left winger Sane, right winger Kingsley Coman, center Hoylund.

Manchester United, goalkeeper De Gea;

Defenders Dalot, Varane, Timber, Luke Shaw;

Defensive midfielder Eriksson and Casemiro, central midfielder Chen Xiaoliang;

Left winger Kwa, center Sesco, right winger Rashford.

The rosters of the two sides were too unexpected, they were all main players, at most there were only some minor adjustments, but when the players of both sides played, not only surprised the outside world, but even Chen Xiaoliang himself was amused.

Surprisingly, with both Maguire and B Fei sitting on the bench, Chen Xiaoliang "finally" put on the captain's armband and walked in the first place of the team.

I was slightly surprised because Ten Hag did not disclose it to the public before the game, but Chen Xiaoliang, who was very successful in Rome and received full support from the dressing room, also took over the captain's armband at Manchester United. has been expected.

What made Chen Xiaoliang happy was that when the two sides shook hands with each other, not only he smiled, but also the referee.

Emma, ​​old acquaintance, Osatu from Italy is the on-duty referee tonight. Although the list has been released long ago, the two "old friends" couldn't help but smile knowingly when they met.

During those two years in Serie A, Roma created difficulties for Osatu. Whenever Mourinho scolded the referee at the post-match press conference, the Italian Football Association would recruit Osatu to brag about Roma games. , to settle the controversy.

In the last round of the league, Augsburg's Bayern, which beat the big team, had two more days of rest than Manchester United. It has greatly exceeded their expectations, even including Chen Xiaoliang, who has won the Triple Crown and played for many wealthy clubs.

Commander Tu's troops are fighting in their own fortress today, and the battle plan is very clear and simple.

The reason why the midfielder didn't play Musiala with delicate skills is that his physical fitness is too far behind Chen Xiaoliang.

The so-called front midfielder Kimmich is basically a front defensive midfielder. With the genuine double midfielders performing their duties, the experienced Kimmich, who is 28 years old and in his golden age, does nothing else. , focus on containing Chen Xiaoliang.

With the assistance of Gretzka and Grafenberg, Bayern's three midfielders are almost used to target Chen Xiaoliang tonight, preventing him from taking the ball, passing the ball comfortably, and preventing him from getting up to speed easily. .

If the defense is handed over to the armored troops on the front, then the offense is all handed over to the mobile troops on the two wings.

Tuchel, who relied heavily on the wing when he played three central defenders at Chelsea, can be regarded as finding his favorite team.

The four wide players, Alfonso Davis and Cancelo may be one of the fastest left and right full backs in European football, while the two wingers Sane and Kingsley Coman, The speed is definitely not lost to Leo and Marcus Thuram in the Chelsea team that Manchester United faced in the last game.

Arnold Michels' last game was really worth watching. The scene of how Leo and Thuram ravaged the two sides, forcing Chen Xiaoliang to kick the midfielder at the end, was fully used by the Bayern coaching staff .

Because of Pochettino's failure, they accidentally discovered a key that may not have been discovered by all the teams that faced Chen Xiaoliang before.

The previous coaches used all kinds of defensive methods to contain Chen Xiaoliang, but the incredible speed, incredible strength, and stimulant of this red man could not reach such a perverted physical strength, which made them work hard time and time again. It all came to naught, and it led to losing again and again.

Although Leo left the field like two arms and caused the loss, he achieved the "feat" of using his own flank to put Ten Hag and Chen Xiaoliang back in the midfielder.

In this way, Chen Xiaoliang, who was unable to play a series function in the central midfielder position, instigated his teammates to advance with the ball from the midfield and then sent a deadly pass, which became a large number of attacks with long passes in the backcourt.

It is self-evident which of these two methods is more efficient.

So today Tuchel simply brought the characteristics of his players to the extreme.

The tactics before the game repeatedly emphasized that as long as you get the ball in the middle lane tonight, you should divide it to the side, stare at one side, and hit this side until there is a lot of noise and the trees are full of soldiers. Let Chen Xiaoliang come to defend, then play the other way, and wait for Chen Xiaoliang to come. Change again, and this cycle makes Chen Xiaoliang run back and forth on the two sides to assist in defense, consuming his energy in offense.

To put it bluntly, Chelsea let Tuchel discover that Chen Xiaoliang's biggest weakness is his teammates!

After the opening, Bayern really resolutely implemented, first of all, the main left.

This Alfonso Davis, 22 years old, Canadian, became famous at a young age, Chen Xiaoliang naturally knew him a long time ago.

But meeting tonight still surprised Chen Xiaoliang.

As far as the fastest defender ever played before, Ashraf from Paris is definitely one. To this day, Chen Xiaoliang still feels that even if Ashraf’s speed is slower than his own on the football field, it is only a fraction of a second slower. .

But tonight's roster is sure to add another Alfonso Davis.

This speed... Teo will cry when he sees it, and Leo will be silent when he sees it.

And the terrible thing is that even if he is fast and strong, his small-scale dribbling skills are also very good. When he came up to attack for the first time, he made a blast against Rashford, and then Eriksson After the supplementary defense passed, a light fried ball came in front of the veteran and changed direction, and finally the long shot missed the post.

This is going to be a dragon initiated by the backcourt.

One him is fine, there is that man named Sane in front of him...

Although under Guardiola, the Spaniard felt that he was not too smart to play football, and would rather choose Glarish than sell him, but Sane's characteristics are very prominent, or one word, fast.

If Alfonso Davis can come forward, he will cut to the middle, and if Alfonso Davis walks to the middle, he will hug the side to force Dalot.

Poor Dalot couldn't see that the last round of rest was over at all, and he was embarrassed and out of breath by these two people after a few back and forth.

Chen Xiaoliang saw it. If this continues, Dalot can change his name to Bartra, so he can only go to defend the first time after Bayern splits to the left to help intercept.

Although the speed of Cancelo and Kingsley Coman on the right is not as abnormal as that on the left, they are not far behind.

Fortunately, there is Luke Shaw, who is not slow, on the left side of Manchester United, and Casemiro assists in the defense. After the opening, they have not suffered too much embarrassment.

But Manchester United's gates quickly fell.

Tuchel's indirect moves aimed at containing Chen Xiaoliang, in addition to the first move of the midfield armored force meat grinder, the second move of the wing mobile force rushing to force Chen Xiaoliang to help, and the third move, the three midfielders are not vegetarians. However, once Chen Xiaoliang is forced to defend on the side, Kimmich and Grafenberg can wait for the opportunity to attack.

Armored units loaded with ammunition can also kill the enemy and win the battle.

In the 12th minute, in Manchester United's positional battle, Kwa on the left fought with Cancelo, and finally made a cross from a space of his body. Cesco's header was interfered by Dericht and became weak. Neue After taking off the ball, there was no delay at all, and he directly threw the ball to Alfonso Davis on the left.

At this time, Rashford was still participating in the attack in the penalty area, and Alfonso Davies started running from the backcourt, and there was no one in front of him to interfere.

Chen Xiaoliang started at full speed from the top of the arc, chased him diagonally, and ran until his own half before catching up with this speed madman with the ball.

Just after catching up, Alfonso Davies passed a kick to Sane who had been waiting for a long time. Sane pushed left and right for about 10 meters. Dalot was so stunned that he only dared to retreat. Grab on.

At this time, Alfonso Alves had already inserted diagonally into the middle and brought Chen Xiaoliang over. Sane made a cross pass and passed it to Kimmich who was inserted into the rib outside the left penalty area.

Kimmich made a sling pass after getting the ball. At this time, Sane had retracted and brought Dalot to the left penalty area line, and Alfonso Davis, who had circled in the middle, had already returned Slid back to the left and received a pass from Kimmich.

Chen Xiaoliang became angry when he saw it. He had already run back from the penalty area to the wing, and the full-back Dalot was still looking at the retracted winger Sane. He is a central midfielder, not a free man, so it is impossible to defend A player defends into the penalty area.

After Alfonso Davis, who received the ball openly, broke into the penalty area along the baseline, Varane was the first to come up to defend, but it was too late. The Canadian monster raised his left foot and passed the ball back. Hoylund, Gretzka was involved in the middle, Sane was involved on the left, and Kingsley Coman was involved on the right, except for Hrafenberg who sneaked into the right side of the small penalty area after missing.

De Gea, who had to defend the near post against a sudden shot by Alphonso Davies, was helpless.

This Ten Hag's favorite midfielder in Ajax used to help the new coach stab the old coach in the heart!

And among the crowd who rushed up to celebrate, there was another player trained by Ten Hag, De Ligt!

Grafenberg, Ten Hag, De Gea, De Ligt, the four "he" have different emotions, sorrows and joys in their hearts at this time, but Tuchel on the sidelines is there laughing "hehehehe" Keep raising your arms to celebrate.

Chen Xiaoliang completely saw that he was being manipulated. He and Casemiro emphasized to Dalot the priority of defending the wing, while quickly calculating in his mind.

Thinking about how to break this incomprehensibly obvious "conspiracy" against himself.
