Chapter 832 The Devil in Lewandowski's Heart

"TOOOORRRR!!!!"

"The ball is in!"

"Gnabry's goal!"

"1:0!"

Bayern Munich has indeed been studying Manchester United diligently, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to score the first goal today.

Gnabry was very excited after scoring the goal and rushed out before the referee blew the whistle.

boom!
Swish swish!
Gnabry slid to his feet, opened his arms, and hugged Davis tightly.

“Bayern!”

“Olè, Olè, Olè!”

"FC Bayern!"

"Stern des Südens!" (Southern Star)

The video first shows Bayern Munich fans jumping around in the stands, followed by a gritted-teeth Ten Hag.

Eric doesn't usually grit his teeth, which shows how well Bayern's attack was just now.

"Manchester United..."

"Hey, he dodged the penalty, but he couldn't stop Bayern's attacking play!"

It is well known that Manchester United's weakness lies in their defense, with both full-backs and center-backs being major vulnerabilities.

Bayern Munich did an excellent job of exploiting their opponents' weaknesses; their continuous passing and stretching were exactly what Varane and De Ligt feared.

Live match report: Bayern's attacking play culminated in a header pass from Müller, which assisted Gnabry's goal, making the score 1-0.

Many Premier League fans are probably already laughing at this.

Manchester United, those scoundrels, have finally been punished.

What goes around comes around. Manchester United were overly concerned about their unbeaten league run and their early title win.

Stealing the championship is nothing short of banditry, and now they will finally be punished by justice!
Pooh!
Tang Ye spat out his chewing gum and quickly comforted De Ligt and De Gea.

“Focus!”

Tang Ye slapped the Dutch center-back on the forehead: "I won't say anything else, just focus, or you'll be off the field in the second half!"

De Gea reached out and touched the muscles near Tang Ye's ribs, indicating that he understood.

"We're already down by one goal, we can't afford any more mistakes!"

Rodri stood in his position, seemingly unsure of what to do next, so he ran over to find Tang Ye. Manchester United's captain and second captain were having a private conversation, while Ten Hag also called Luke Shaw away.

The match restarted, and the Allianz Arena was filled with shouts of "mia san mia (We are who we are)".

Taking the lead over Manchester United is certainly a very comfortable thing, as Chelsea experienced before.

Bayern's lead this time is obviously more valuable, because if they can maintain this score, they can eliminate Manchester United!
There's movement on the Manchester United bench!
Ten Hag had Bailly, Wan-Bissaka, Ziyech, Bruno Fernandes, and Cristiano Ronaldo start warming up at the same time.

Seeing this, Nagelsmann secretly chuckled to himself.

So Eric can panic too.

Steady!

Everything's safe!

Bayern Munich has it all in the bag today!

"..."

"Lucas Hernandez..."

"Just attack!"

"But, haha!"

"Hernandez's shot hit Rodri!"

The rebounding ball was caught by Musiala.

However, Musiala was indeed too inexperienced, and he didn't choose to pass the ball in the first place. The next second, Dalot kicked the ball away.

Oh!

Possession of the ball fell to Tang Ye.

I have to show off my skills.

Tang Ye used a V-shaped pull to feint, quickly widening the distance between himself and Hernandez.

Run forward to advance the ball.

Manchester United's counter-attack!
Tang Ye kept shaking his head from side to side as he advanced with the ball. Although he didn't make any passing moves, Nagelsmann was visibly nervous watching him.

Snapped!
A through ball from mid-range was played to Luke Shaw, who was making a quick run up the left flank.

Luke Shaw and Rashford combined to push forward.

Let Rashford launch a deeper attack later!
"Come!"

Tang Ye left the midfield position to Luke Shaw and De Jong, while he moved towards Rashford.

clap clap!

After hitting a wall, Tang Ye tried to switch positions with Rashford, but was blocked by Davis.

They wanted to continue, but unexpectedly Rashford chose to shoot directly from that position.

boom!
The ball bounced off the edge of the penalty area and into the net.

This is a shot from the bottom right corner of the goal!

"Oh my God!"

"Marcus Rashford!"

"Pretty!"

A goal from Rashford makes the score 1-1.

"Nice Marcus!"

Tang Ye was still thinking about the follow-up to the previous attack, but it was all useless now.

Rashford got into his rhythm and took a shot, easily leveling the score.

On the wing, Rashford, with Tang Ye and Luke Shaw hanging behind him, pressed his index finger to his temple.

"xuuu!!!"

"Fuck you!"

Why did they concede a penalty in the European Championship?

"..."

Clap clap clap!

[Rashford!!! This is the true Manchester United crown prince!]

[There's no denying it; Rashford was truly unstoppable in the first half.]

GGBond deserves a huge credit for this!

Phew...it's alright now. I thought Manchester United was going to lose, but it's Bayern Munich who's going to lose.

Bayern Munich were in a very favorable position, but then Manchester United suddenly scored a goal.

Manchester United's greatest strength is attacking, so how do you get them to find their attacking rhythm?

Isn't this about to explode?

Bayern Munich quickly paid the price for their negligence.

Tang Ye delivered a 45-degree cross, not looking for Haller or De Ligt, but directly to Luke Shaw's position.

Luke Shaw stood on the grass without jumping, tightened his grip, and headed the ball into the goal.

Was this ball offside?
"Hiss...it looks like offside?"

"Ale and Dembele are both in offside positions."

After the goal was scored, the players from both sides started arguing right there in the penalty area.

"No offside! No offside!"

"What are you talking about? It couldn't be offside! Look at Shaw, don't look at him, he didn't touch the ball!"

The referee pressed his earpiece, waiting for news from the assistant referee.

The assistant referee didn't give a clear answer, so the referee ultimately had to rely on himself. "Beep!"

Draw a square in the air with your index finger.

【VAR Checking】

"Ugh, I'm so nervous."

"Haha, indeed, my heart is beating faster now."

Zhan Jun placed his hand on his chest, a moment that fans couldn't see.

“Oh, it really was offside. Haller and Dembele were clearly offside. But look, neither Haller nor Dembele touched the ball during the whole process, nor did they interfere with the defender next to Luke Shaw.”

"But Ale's position can affect the goalkeeper's judgment."

Okay, this is a 50/50 situation. You can call it a penalty, or you can argue it wasn't; there's a reasonable explanation for either ruling.

It all depends on which side the referee is on today.

Blow it away! Blow it away!

"Blow that ball away, and I'll call it for you after the game is over!"

Fans are shouting at the referee.

"I'm really going to brag about it!"

There were many temptations off the field, but the referee remained unmoved no matter what.

The referee was very focused, and after careful consideration, he made his cautious decision.

"Beep!"

"The goal stands!"

"Luke Shaw scores with a header!"

"2:1!"

Luke Shaw ran backwards, and his jump and spin was incredibly cool.

"..."

"Manchester United are really getting into form! They're feeling it!"

"Yes, this will make things very difficult for Bayern from now on."

Nagelsmann paced back and forth.

Upon closer reflection, Bayern's goal did indeed come a bit too early.

After all, the other side consists of bandits; you can't just go up and chop a knife into their head.

Because bandits can be terrifying when they're angry!

The game is nearing the end of the first half.

Judging from the footage, both the Bayern coaching staff and the Bayern fans in the stands were quite nervous.

Because Nagelsmann made a very radical choice – to position Müller and Lewandowski further forward, thereby threatening Manchester United's defense.

Regardless of whether this tactic is theoretically feasible, its effectiveness is quite evident in practice.

Musiala dribbled inside again, and the Bayern prince maintained a relatively slow dribbling pace.

Dalot is backing away!
The moment Musiala changed direction, Dalot reached out and made a steal!

"Pretty!"

"Dalot is in perfect condition today!"

"But the ball bounced out!"

The ball, which had been intercepted, came to Alphonso Davies' feet.

A high cross!

Inside the penalty area, Lewandowski.

boom!
The header went high!
"Depend on!"

Nagelsmann gritted his teeth.

Bayern Munich were hoping to equalize the score before the end of the first half, but it seems that achieving this will be quite difficult.

Let's check the situation next door.

Manchester United's bench was full of players warming up; you had absolutely no idea what Ten Hag was planning in the second half.

"..."

"Beep, beep beep—!!"

Halftime report: Lewandowski misses penalty, Gnabry scores, Bayern Munich 1-2 Manchester United temporarily reversed the score at home, Dalot is in excellent form.

"xuuu!!!"

"Beep beep beep!!!"

The jeers from the opposing fans in the stands were unpleasant. Tang Ye shook his head, and he and Rodri were talking about something.

Muller was right behind him.

He really wanted to go over and listen to the conversation between Tang Ye and Rodri, because, unsurprisingly, the two Manchester United captains were probably discussing some key tactics for the team.

……

"They're definitely going to make a major personnel change soon."

In the home team's locker room, Neuer, with a towel around his neck, was sharing his thoughts with his teammates.

"It's not that we can't win, our defense isn't too bad, so you need to be more confident. Manchester United's attack is indeed too aggressive, and it's okay if you can't stop them sometimes, but you can't panic!"

"The defenders are the last line of defense. If you mess things up, their striker will charge straight at me with the ball. What am I supposed to do?"

Neuer did not appear very happy.

"Fortunately, Dembele's shot wasn't very accurate, otherwise we would be down by two goals now."

While Neuer was speaking, Nagelsmann finished his drawing on the tactics board.

“We don’t know what they’re going to do in the second half yet, but I’m pretty sure they’ll bring Bruno (Fernandes) on in the second half. It’s only a matter of time before they do. That’ll be our chance.”

"We're launching a counter-attack down the middle!"

Snapped!
Nagels clapped his hands: "We need to capitalize on their midfield mistakes and launch counter-attacks through the middle. I think I told you before that if the opponent is Manchester United, we should launch counter-attacks through the middle."

"Since it was a mistake in midfield, then our opponent's most prized midfielder was unable to get back in time to defend!"

"..."

"3, 2, 1!"

Go Munich!

The locker room door was opened, and the players walked out one after another.

"how are you feeling?"

Müller inquired about Lewandowski's condition.

Lewandowski didn't speak at first, but after Müller put his hand on his shoulder, he said, "We can't lose today, we really can't lose."

"We must win."

"..."

Müller licked his lips and patted Lewandowski on the back a few more times.

Lewandowski is quite pitiful, really.

If Tang Ye hadn't dominated the past two seasons, he would most likely have won two Ballon d'Or awards.

In addition, Tang Ye also went to the Bundesliga last season and snatched the Bundesliga title from Lewandowski!
Tom's greatness is superficial; behind the Manchester United captain's Ballon d'Or journey, countless corpses have fallen.

Among these corpses, you can see Lewandowski's face everywhere.

They're all Lewandowski's corpses!

"..."

"Alright, welcome back, everyone!"

"The second half has begun!"

"Manchester United's substitution: Bruno Fernandes comes on as a substitute for Haller!"
