Football: Starting from the Ronaldinho template

Chapter 144 Bayern Munich Blitzes Wolfsburg! Overcoming adversity to catch up, showcasing incredible teamwork! A bicycle kick!

Beep! ! !
The referee blew the whistle on time, and the crucial match of the 32nd round of the Bundesliga officially kicked off.

Bayern Munich has possession of the ball.

Lewandowski kicked off and passed the ball across to Müller, who then passed it back.

Wow! Amid the noisy atmosphere at the stadium, Bayern didn't insist on possession-based football. After a few passes in midfield, they launched a long pass directly to Lewandowski.

At this moment, Schweinsteiger and other midfielders pushed forward, putting immense pressure on Wolfsburg's defense through their runs.

Xabi Alonso retreated to Benatia's side.

"Lewandowski's heading ability was fully utilized, winning a touch and passing it to Schweinsteiger!"

"The German is a typical versatile midfielder, capable of both playmaking and defensive interception, making him a very important part of Bayern's midfield!"

"Schweinsteiger has the upper hand in his match against Maranda!"

"A long diagonal pass with the left foot to find Müller!"

On the right side of the pitch, Müller received the ball, looked around, and noticed that Lewandowski was being closely marked by Naldo. He then decisively went down the wing to try and cut into the penalty area.

But Rodriguez kept his eyes on him, seizing the opportunity to clear the ball out of bounds.

"Corner kick, corner kick!" A sly glint flashed in Müller's eyes. His real goal wasn't to break into the penalty area, but to create a set piece to find an opportunity.

In the 4th minute of the match, Bayern won a corner kick on the right, making the 30,000 fans in the stadium tense.

Guardiola also took his place in the command area.

The penalty area was crowded and chaotic, but the Wolfsburg players were very focused on marking Lewandowski.

He is Bayern's biggest weapon in set pieces.

Xabi Alonso held up three fingers, signifying the use of a third tactic.

Snap! The football, spinning, was kicked towards the near post. Müller's sudden diagonal movement forced Knoch to follow up.

"Let it slip through!"

Lewandowski's stern shout rang out inside the penalty area, and Müller immediately ducked his head in response.

The soccer ball grazed his hair as it flew toward the center.

There, Lewandowski, carrying Naldo, jumped to a height where he could touch the ball and headed it towards the left side of the goal.

Swish! Benaglio was also fooled by Müller's feint, and by the time he realized it, the ball had already entered the net, making a crisp sound as it made contact with the net.

0-1! ! !

Bayern scored just four minutes into the game!
"MIA SAN MIA!" The away stands instantly turned into a sea of ​​celebration, with Bayern fans raising their arms and shouting wildly.

They are Bundesliga giants; even with a roster full of injuries, they are not to be trifled with, and they certainly won't lose their salad bowl.

"Three wins against Wolfsburg in a single season!"

"The German Cup is ours, and the league title is ours too!"

"Whether it's rotation or starting lineup, the final result is the same: you will fail!"

Bayern Munich will win!

"."

Having scored with a lightning-fast attack, they are now full of confidence for victory!

This also swept away the gloom of being defeated by Barcelona.

If they can't beat Barcelona, ​​can't they at least beat Wolfsburg?

On the sidelines, Guardiola could not hide his excitement; no matter how proud he was, he had to admit Wolfsburg's strength.

I thought today would be a protracted battle.

But judging from this, their offensive firepower is too strong, and Wolfsburg seems unable to withstand it.

If he can win easily, he will have enough energy to play the second leg of the Champions League semi-final four days later.

"After we gain an early advantage, we can slow down and play possession-based football, slowly wearing down Wolfsburg."

This is exactly the situation Guardiola wanted.

With good stamina at the start, they did their best to score first, thus creating a chain reaction.

As he was thinking, he touched his pocket and breathed a sigh of relief when he found it intact.

He got so excited during the Barcelona game that his pants pocket ripped, revealing a huge hole, and the photographer even managed to capture it.

As a world-class coach, he also has his pride, right?
I had the tailor reinforce the seams of my trousers today.

the other side.

"Bayern's center forward is too strong, and our defense has a hard time stopping him. We still need to stick to our plan and fight in midfield. Only in this way will we have a chance."

Dieter Black Gold sighed helplessly.

"Boss, I think this is Bayern's three-pronged attack. They've never played like this before. They'll get back to their original rhythm soon."

Thorn-Lockhoff holds the same view.

Meanwhile, outside the penalty area, Maranda stared dumbfounded at Lewandowski's celebration. He had imagined countless scenarios of conceding a goal before the match.

But unexpectedly, they conceded a goal just 4 minutes into the game.

This is really demoralizing!

"I knew Bayern wouldn't be an easy opponent, even though they put up a fight against Barcelona."

Qin Ming spat, a fire seemingly burning within him that made him feel no frustration.

We've already walked the last leg of the journey; the steps to the finish line are right in front of us.

Even if it means climbing, we have to climb up.

There was no time for sentimentality. He glanced at Bayern's half and said, "Kevin, our pressing intensity in the attacking third isn't enough. When Thiago or Lahm receive the ball on the wing, you guys need to move forward quickly, force Bayern's passes to the wing, and then we'll attack each other."

Lewandowski's header goal made Qin Ming realize one thing.

That means trying to beat Bayern by parking the bus is an impossible thing.

We must continue the attack!
Compared to his offensive prowess, he's really not afraid of Bayern.

With De Bruyne providing support, he only needs to make two consecutive breakthroughs to make Bayern shift their defensive focus to him, just like when they played Barcelona.

The opportunity will come then.
Of course, it's easier said than done.

But at least it's a clear line of thought.

After exchanging glances with De Bruyne, Qin Ming returned to his position.

After the game restarts.

As Dieter Hecking predicted, Bayern slowed down, relying mainly on penetration through the middle and the overlapping runs of Thiago, Müller, and Lewandowski.

After a brief period of adjustment, Qin Ming pointed forward to his teammates.

What do you mean?
grab!
They aim to disrupt Bayern's backline organization and create local numerical advantages.

Don't be afraid of a counterattack!

If you're afraid, you won't be able to win possession of the ball; if you're afraid, you won't be able to establish an advantage!

"The ball was passed to Thiago's feet, and Qin Ming rushed forward to intercept it!"

"Wow! Thiago's dribbling is beautiful! He's going for a through ball to Müller up front!"

"No! This is a defensive trap by Wolfsburg. Rodriguez is hiding behind, waiting for Thiago to pass the ball!"

"Rodriguez intercepts the ball and launches a counter-attack!"

At the Volkswagen Stadium, Wolfsburg fans stood at attention, eagerly awaiting a goal.

"Ricardo!" After intercepting the ball from Rodriguez, Qin Ming stopped harassing Thiago and instead made a diagonal run into the flank.

Rodriguez immediately passed the ball after hearing this.

Thump! Qin Ming felt an impact from behind, and he knew without a doubt that it was Xabi Alonso.

Those involved in the Istanbul Miracle are now positioned at Bayern Munich as doing the dirty work.

*Snap!* Qin Ming leaned back slightly against Xabi Alonso, his right foot seemingly under a spell, pulling and hooking as if to make a sudden attack from the left.

"Not going to join?"

Qin Ming noticed that Xabi Alonso was unmoved, so he faked a move and cut inside to the middle lane.

Bang! Taking advantage of the tiny opening, he unleashed a powerful shot!

The football whistled towards the goal, but suddenly a pair of hands caught it steadily.

"Neuer's brilliant empty pick!"

"Actually, that shot was of very high quality, but he still chose to catch it instead of making the save!"

"What a skillful and daring person!"

On the field, Qin Ming had no time to be upset about it and returned to pressing high up the pitch.

Instead, Xabi Alonso's gaze lingered on him for several seconds longer.

During his five years at Real Sociedad, Xabi Alonso faced Ronaldinho of Barcelona countless times, and he understands the characteristics of this type of player very well.

Every move is a feint, designed to deceive the defenders.

What he needs to do is not be misled by the actions, but rather deduce the psychology from the offensive strategy.

For example, since Thiago was positioned further forward, Qin Ming's first choice was definitely to go to the baseline, so he only needed to defend the outside.

Even if Qin Ming cuts inside to the middle, with Boateng and others around, it will be difficult for him to break into the penalty area.

There's even less to worry about when it comes to shooting.

Neuer is no pushover.

"Wolfsburg's pressure had an effect, but not as great as expected!"

"Bayern's midfield clustering and defensive positioning made it very difficult for Wolfsburg to get the ball out of the box!" "Moreover, Bayern's attitude was very clear: you can shoot, but they won't give you a good angle, because Neuer is there in front of the goal!"

"Huh! Why is Qin Ming moving towards the middle lane and switching positions with Perisic?"

He Wei couldn't quite understand Wolfsburg's tactics.

In fact, this was something Dieter Hecking had instructed in advance: if the side lanes couldn't break through, then they should try to switch positions frequently.

This disrupted Bayern's defensive strategy and created passing opportunities for De Bruyne.

The 17th minute of the game.

Qin Ming weaved through Bayern's defense, his eyes scanning his teammates and opponents, when he suddenly noticed an opening in the right flank area due to Tresch's forward press with the ball.

opportunity!

"Christian!"

He quickly moved to an open space and shouted at Tresch.

Snap! The football was passed sideways the next second, and Qin Ming's dark pupils reflected several defending players.

Xabi Alonso continues to press but not steal.

Qin Ming didn't hesitate and passed the ball directly to Dost on the right side of the penalty area.

The Dutch bald guy knows his role in this game.

Pivot point!

Therefore, he kept passing the ball back, trying to hit the wall with Qin Ming.

However, Xabi Alonso anticipated this and ambushed Qin Ming in his blind spot, waiting for him to receive the ball before stealing it away.

Not only that.

He even had a complete counterattack plan in mind.

"Qin!!!" De Bruyne's voice startled Xabi Alonso, who was incredulously watching Qin Ming let the ball slip behind him.

What do you mean?
Let De Bruyne take the shot, but that won't pose a threat to Neuer.

But then his pupils constricted sharply, and he cried out in alarm, "Watch out!"

De Bruyne, positioned on the edge of the penalty area, seemed to transform into a calm and collected master strategist.

He watched silently as Ram rushed forward, and he watched silently as Qin Ming made his run forward.

He knew exactly what he had to do, just like he had done in countless training sessions.

Send the ball to the spot he wants to send it to.

Amidst the changing winds, he found his opportunity, flicking the ball up with his left foot and gently tapping it with his right!
Pop! A rainbow appeared over the Volkswagen Stadium, stunning the eyes of 30,000 fans.

It's not over yet!

The relay between the Wolfsburg twins has only just begun.

The hundreds of blinding spotlights at the top of the stadium seemed to be shining on one person at that moment.

Qin Ming estimated the landing point of the football.

A direct shot wouldn't be fast enough; Neuer would block it.

Then use the back side!
He paused, turned around, and stared at the spinning football.

Neuer looked puzzled.

What does this mean? Are you afraid to look at yourself?
His expression changed drastically the next moment.

This is going to be fancy!
Qin Ming adjusted his posture with small, quick steps, trying to find the feeling he had during training.

Take a deep breath and stomp your feet on the grass, using explosive power to instantly launch yourself into the air amidst the flying dirt and grass clippings.

The moment the football flew directly above him, his waist and abdomen tightened and his body stretched out.

Right foot swings out in a semi-circular overhead kick!

The confident Neuer panicked and instinctively fell to the ground to make a save, but felt nothing.

Swish! But the sound of the football rubbing against the net gave him the answer.

1-1! ! !

"Whoa whoa whoa! Upside-down kick!"

"Wolfsburg equalized in the 17th minute! Look at this incredible goal!"

"Träsch, Qin Ming, Dost, De Bruyne! The four of them tore apart Bayern's defense with concise passing and movement!"

"Finally, Wolfsburg's twin stars combined brilliantly, scoring a bicycle kick to breach Bayern's goal!"

"incredible!"

"Watching them play football always evokes a wonderful feeling!"

"Who exactly is Bayern Munich and who is Wolfsburg?!"

He Wei couldn't help but stand up and look at the electrifying stadium.

The three stands formed by Wolfsburg fans erupted in deafening cheers, causing the stadium roof to tremble slightly.

This season, they have already lost to Bayern twice. Even though they have confidence in their own team, after conceding a quick goal to Bayern, they all felt that the championship was out of reach.

Despite being in such a passive situation, the players on the field scored a near-perfect goal through teamwork and individual skill.

How could they not be excited?
Wolfsburg will win!

"Upset the Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich and etch our names on the trophy!"

Wolfsburg!

When the deafening sound reached the stadium.

Qin Ming felt his blood boiling. He ran towards the corner flag area against the wind, grabbed the corner flag pole, and shouted.

They worked hard all season; everyone put in so much effort.

How could I fall here?

"Qin! You did it! A bicycle kick goal!"

"Well done!"

"Tie it! Tie it!"

Wolfsburg players followed closely behind and carried him in the middle of the crowd.

At this moment, they were like solidified rocks, becoming stronger under the pounding of the waves.

"We can definitely win! Even if we concede another goal, we can come back!"

Qin Ming clenched his fist as he felt the warmth on his shoulder.

“We will definitely win!”

Persic's neck was bright red, indicating he was overly excited.

"One more! Why can't we turn it around and score the first goal against them!" The bald Dutchman shouted, pointing at the Bayern goal.

Qin Ming looked at the excitement on his teammates' faces and felt their strong sense of unity.

On the other side, Neuer got up from the grass, his awkward expression mixed with embarrassment.

He had just recently assured that his goal would not be breached.

Not long after, Qin Ming scored with a bicycle kick, making him the perfect backdrop.

His pride prevented him from accepting it.

"We still need to press aggressively and not give them time, otherwise the defensive line will be under great pressure."

Ram looked at Xabi Alonso and said.

"I know, but no one could have predicted what just happened."

Xabi Alonso nodded and glanced at Qin Ming again.

If it were just Qin Ming alone, he wouldn't be too worried, but with De Bruyne added to the mix...

两人已经不是1+1＞2，而是1+1＞3或4了。

This perfect chemistry is something Bayern Munich lacks and is rarely seen in the entire football world.

"Absolute reason and absolute emotion?"

Xabi Alonso recalled Guardiola's assessment of the two players.

"Use the width of the wings to play fast and connect with Robert, otherwise we will be confined to the backfield."

Schweinsteiger frowned as he expressed his thoughts.

On the coach's bench by the field.

Guardiola has been holding his head in his hands ever since Qin Ming scored, and he still hasn't taken them down, his face filled with disbelief.

He was a little confused just now, whether this was Wolfsburg or Barcelona.

How could they launch such a beautiful attack?

"A system built around the Wolfsburg duo can always erupt like a volcano unexpectedly."

Guardiola rubbed his temples hard, knowing this match wouldn't be easy.

the other side.

Dieter Black Gold trembled as he raised his glass and took a sip of water to relieve his dry mouth.

"Boss! I have a feeling we have the advantage! Bayern can't withstand our attack!"

Thorn-Lockhoff made a strange, exaggerated gesture and shout.
