Chapter 765: Press friction

Players from both sides line up in the player channel of Wembley Stadium!

The players looked straight ahead without squinting, and there was no conversation.

A reporter lowered his body, carried the camera, and from the angle of the camera, the camera swept past the players!

While the players were waiting in the same way, where did the coaches and substitute players from both sides walked out!

Gao Bo slapped the players one by one. He didn't do anything else, but all the players knew that this represented the coach's confidence in winning!

Everyone did not speak, and waited quietly for the appearance.

The coaches on both sides walked out of the tunnel.

Gao Bo and Klopp shook hands, but they did not speak.

Before this, Gao Bo and Klopp did not have any intersection, and naturally there was no grudge.

Moreover, on such an occasion, the two can be regarded as deadly opponents, and the two head coaches naturally have no intention to greet each other.

In the center of the stadium, the five-star flag representing the Champions League logo has been spread out by the caddies in the middle circle. At this time, the caddies are holding the flags with the emblems of the two final teams on both sides, which will be the team at that time. Guide to appearance.

The stadium was full of seats, and the moment the two coaches came out, violent cheers rang out, and the surrounding stands were like boiling hot soup.

When the majestic Champions League theme song sounded, the hot soup boiled completely, and the explosion resounded through Wembley!

The players are about to play! !

In the exciting music, players from both sides filed out!

The Dortmund fans cheered, and a huge banner rose up!

1998! !

Dortmund hopes that today's game can make them dream of 98!

And Manchester City fans do not want to be suppressed by Dortmund fans in their momentum, they desperately raise their own volume!

For a while, the sky above Wembley Stadium was full of cheers, and this sound resounded all over the world!

The camera swept across the players, across the court.

At the same time, it is fixed on the two head coaches!

Both head coaches have a close-up.

Gao Bo stood in front of the coach's bench, applauding for his disciples. There was no sadness or joy on his face, no expression on his face.

Compared with Gao Bo, who appeared to be a little calmer, Klopp seemed a little uncomfortable. He paced slightly in front of the coach, applauded for a while, looked into the stands, and looked at the field for a while.

The expression on his face is also very rich. The German is a passionate coach. A great sight in the Bundesliga is the crazy celebration of the personality coach after Dortmund scored!

"I don't know if we can see Klopp celebrating in this Champions League final!"

This is obviously the German commentator. Although Dortmund is inferior in strength, this is the final, and any situation in the final can happen.

In a football game, the strength of the paper does not determine the outcome of the game.

This is a sport of great chance. Everyone knows that whether it is Manchester City or Dortmund, they have no idea that they must win. The final result can only be known until the end of the game.

The players have entered the court.

Kompany and Weidenfeller are in the middle circle, ready to complete the ceremony of tossing the side.

In the end, Manchester City won the right to toss and Dortmund won the kick-off right.

Then the game is ready to start.

The stadium suddenly became quiet.

Everyone is looking forward to it.

Everyone knows that the game is about to begin.

When the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game, flashing lights in the stands!

For a time, the stands turned into galaxies!

In the shining galaxy, Lewandowski kicked the ball out and the game began! !

"Audience friends!! Audience friends!! Welcome to the 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League final match. The two teams are facing Manchester City from England and Dortmund from Germany! This is the first time the two teams have played in the Champions League. Before this, the two teams had not many records of the match. This was an encounter! A match between teams that did not know each other!!! But at the same time, this also represents this. It’s a matchup at the highest level of European football and even world football!! Who wins and who loses! After the game is over, everyone will know the difference!!"

In the stands, the commentator Duan Xuan of CCTV was sitting in a seat in the commentary booth.

At the same time, the other commentators in the commentary booth quickly started to work as if they were winding up.

Klopp is indeed nervous now.

This is his first Champions League final.

He looked at Gao Bo, who was not far away.

What Klopp must admit is that Manchester City's paper strength is indeed above Dortmund.

Of course, this does not mean that Dortmund is about to give up.

The paper strength does not mean that Dortmund will definitely fall in the game. Real Madrid's paper strength is better than Manchester City, but they were eliminated by Dortmund. Although in the second round, at the Bernabeu Stadium, Dortmund was almost defeated by Real Madrid. It was a comeback, but it is undeniable that Dortmund's ability to play Real Madrid 4-1 at home in the first leg speaks of their strength.

In Klopp's view, Dortmund wants to win this game, the most important thing is to be able to play to their true advantages.

Therefore, he did not make too many targeted defensive arrangements for Manchester City before the game, but put more emphasis on Dortmund's own play.

Klopp has a set of ideas, he has a set of his own tactical ideas, or philosophy.

Moreover, he is convinced of his own set!

At the beginning of the game, Dortmund tried to speed up the tempo. Klopp's team was very good at playing at a fast pace.

They first launched a wave of offensive quickly, and then after the offensive failed, they did not immediately return to their own half, but immediately launched a frenzied frontcourt oppression in the frontcourt.

This was not beyond Gao Bo's expectations.

Although he has never played against Klopp, it does not mean that he does not understand Klopp's tactical thinking.

Dortmund put out a lineup in the frontcourt that made Gao Bo quite familiar.

In the 4231 formation, the goalkeeper is Weidenfeller. Since Hummels defected to Manchester United last summer, Klopp could only introduce Papasta Sopoulos to replace Hummels and Shubertitch. Partner with the central defender, the right defender is Piszczek, the left defender is Schmelzer, a combination of two midfielders, this game Klopp sent a combination of Swende and Gundogan, in their bodies Before, it was Gotze, Royce, Grosskreuz, and Lewandowski on the front line!

In Gao Bo's memory, in another period of history, Goeze was injured and missed the final. Now, Goeze is not injured, but in a state of bravery.

Although Gotze will move to Bayern Munich next season, which makes his relationship with Dortmund fans and even some players worsened, it cannot be denied that Gotze thinks he has considerable strength.

Therefore, despite the fact that Dortmund lost Hummels in comparison with the original history, they had a grid in the final, and their offensive strength was strengthened!

Dortmund's frontcourt players are generally very fast, and they can achieve good results when they play behind their opponents in the counterattack from defensive to offensive. However, they do not tend to use the backcourt intensive defense to wait for opportunities to play the opponent's half-court defense. Fight back. Head coach Klopp implemented the oppressive tactics for the team, that is, after the team loses the ball in the front court, multiple players together force the opponent to take the team member and regain the ball as soon as possible.

In this time and space, this kind of oppressive football was played by Gao Bo first. Perhaps it was also affected by Gao Bo. Klopp’s oppressive tactics are more perfect than before. Their oppression strength and rhythm control, All become better.

On the offensive end, Dortmund’s youth army is also doing quite well, combining a quick pass with the players’ high-speed movement to speed up the transfer of the ball and force the opponent’s formation to move at a high speed, pulling the opponent’s defense. Passing and catching the ball should be done with one foot as much as possible. Running and passing are basically carried out at high speed. After a quick counter-attack in the front court, immediately put in a counterattack. When the opponent has obvious loopholes, directly pass the opponent forward or behind. From defensive to offensive, the midfielder moves quickly without the ball, moves quickly to the gap in the opponent's formation or the area that the opponent's formation cannot cover, and receives the ball from several positions, the receiver and the ball player. To form a polygon, the ball holder has at least three **** to choose the route. At least four players form a rapid mutual pass cooperation, to achieve the goal of moving the dribble faster than the opponent's defensive center of gravity in the ball area, and ultimately make the opponent midfielder lose an effective defensive position, and then tear the midfield defense line. Directly face the defender line to implement anti-offside.

However, there is always a weakness in any tactic. Klopp’s oppressive style of play is based on the fast-paced offensive and defensive conversions and on-site counter-grabbing in the frontcourt. This means that in order to maintain their formation, the central defender is afraid of the back line. In the area behind them, in order to maintain the formation, they dare not directly push up like the defensive midfielder. The disconnect between the defensive midfielder and the central defender is inevitable, and it is easy to be used by the opponent's counterattack.

Therefore, in this game Gao Bo was not too afraid of Dortmund's offense, their defense is flawed.

Although Manchester City's defense is good, but the offense is obviously stronger, in terms of strength, Manchester City is also stronger than Dortmund!

That being the case, Gao Bo asked the team to attack Dortmund from the very beginning!

Klopp's is the youth army, but Manchester City is not too old!

In Manchester City's lineup, the one who is over thirty years old, that is, Koroture plus Kaka, and the other players are at their peak age.

Good body and stamina!

Even if they pull away to fight against, Manchester City will not be afraid of Dortmund!

So, after Dortmund's round of offense, they soon discovered that Manchester City's offense was stronger than theirs!

The rhythm of the game was driven directly onto the highway by Manchester City!

No temptation, no adaptation, no running-in!

Dortmund was just about to start a counter-grab in the frontcourt, but David Silva, who retreated to catch the ball, directly ignored Dortmund's Qianlong defense line. He directly passed a long pass and hit the junction between Dortmund's midfielder and central defender!

After receiving the long pass from David Silva, Kaka stopped the ball directly in the chest, and then approached Papastasopoulos with a step forward, and then shot directly! !

Bang!

Before everyone reacted, the football flew to the goal! ! !

"Kaka!!!"

The commentators exclaimed.

Manchester City passed the ball with two feet, giving Kaka a chance to shoot!

Dortmund's frontcourt press, so Manchester City broke! !

Fortunately, Weidenfeller still reacted very quickly. He quickly flew up and saved the ball with one hand to the bottom line!

Manchester City's corner kick! ! !

Klopp was startled by Kaka's shot. He jumped directly from the coach's bench and then anxiously came to the sidelines.

When he saw Kaka shoot, Klopp's heartbeat stopped.

It would be too difficult for Dortmund if a goal was scored at the beginning.

Kaka held his head and regretted that he felt very good when he kicked the ball out. The strength and angle of the ball are excellent. If Weidenfeller is slower by 01 seconds, the goal will definitely be scored! !

Gao Bo also leaned back and clapped vigorously.

In the pre-match tactical arrangement for this game, Gao Bo asked the team to play more concisely, and he asked them to shoot as much as possible in the frontcourt.

This is because he focused on increasing the advancement of the frontcourt in the card setup before the game.

In the finals, momentum is very important.

If Manchester City's momentum overwhelmed Dortmund from the beginning, this game would have been easier to play!

Sure enough, after Kaka's shot, Manchester City's offensive soon started!

Five minutes before the opening, Dortmund basically failed to get the ball except for the opening stage.

Manchester City continued to launch an offensive, pushing Dortmund into the penalty area!

In the third minute of the game, Griezmann shot inside!

Weidenfeller once again made a brave save!

In the next corner kick, Kompany jumped high and headed the goal. The football bounced after hitting the ground, slightly wide of the crossbar!

In the stands, Manchester City fans are very excited!

They were singing and cheering in the stands!

The Dortmund fans put their hearts in their throats!

Manchester City's continuous offensive has made all Dortmund fans very worried.

"Man City’s offense is here again! During this time, Weidenfeller became the busiest Dortmund player on the field. He continued to resist high and tried to keep the goal. But this is not the way to go, Dortmund cannot rely on it. Weidenfeller held for ninety minutes"

"Dortmund wants to find a way to attack. They have Lewandowski, Gotze, and Royce. These attacking players are no worse than Manchester City's attackers. They have to find a way. The war burns to the restricted area of ​​Manchester City They cannot make their defense too easy, otherwise, Manchester City can launch a frenzied attack with almost no pressure," the German commentator said.

Klopp frowned and looked at the court. His frontcourt press didn't seem to have a good effect for Manchester City, and during this time Dortmund was suppressed by Manchester City.

Is there really such a big difference in strength between the two sides?

Klopp doesn't think so.

Dortmund needs to stabilize the position first, and then get back some of the game.

At this time, on the Internet, fans who are watching the game are also discussing the game.

"Is Manchester City too strong or Dortmund too weak"

"This is the UEFA Champions League final with the greatest power gap in these years?"

"Dortmund was rubbed by Manchester City"

The fans talked a lot.
