Chapter 454 The curse of losing the crown if you touch the trophy(3/3)
Bayern Munich's attacking group, headed by Lewandowski, has very high tactical execution. It is up to them to suppress Chelsea's three ball-playing central defenders, especially forcing David Luiz to find it difficult to pass the ball forward effectively.
At the same time, Ribery and Robben were positioned very high on the wings, almost following Chelsea's two full-backs, especially Azpilicueta on the right.
Captain Azpilicueta on the field today has always been good at both offense and defense. He can be said to be the representative of an all-around full-back. Dribbling and delivering the ball are both very important means for the team.
Therefore, today Robben is more active on the right side of Van Dijk, blocking the Chelsea center back's path to the right.
Azpilicueta has fewer opportunities to get the ball on this side. Marcos Alonso on the left is relatively slow and has average breakthrough ability, so it is difficult to create opportunities on both sides.
In the defensive midfielder position, Xavi Alonso initially pressed higher, mainly against Chelsea's Kante, which made Chelsea's midfielder unable to control the midfield as he pleased before.
Hazard and B in front of Kanter, because Bayern Munich's defense line is higher, the three lines are kept very compact, which makes it difficult for Chelsea's two attacking midfielders to get opportunities, and receiving and delivering the ball are not ideal.
.
In general, Chelsea's passing and controlling style of play was curbed by Bayern Munich's aggressive pressing.
In particular, Bayern's off-the-ball movement itself is very good. Each player can form a local double-team situation through large-scale movements, making it difficult for Chelsea to effectively pass the ball.
On the contrary, it was Bayern who counterattacked vigorously, and the threat became greater every time.
It should be said that Guardiola's opening tactics were very successful and the effect was obvious. Chelsea made frequent mistakes in passing and receiving.
It can even be said that if Bayern Munich continues to be suppressed like this, it will be a matter of time before they are scored.
Look at Lewandowski's two shots. If it weren't for Chelsea's defenders and goalkeepers, Bayern might have taken the lead.
Once Bayern scores a goal, Guardiola is likely to change his style of play, focus more on controlling the ball, loosen the pressure on the court, and allocate physical energy more reasonably.
In this way, they are ahead in the score again, and there will not be too many hidden dangers in terms of physical fitness.
This is Guardiola's overall consideration for this game.
Of course, as an old friend of Gua Shuai, Pan Yi already has a plan to deal with it.
"You two, stand back!" Pan Yi shouted toward the court.
He was calling out the two wing-backs Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso.
After adjusting their positions, they stood at the full-back position, while David Luiz pushed forward a little, forming a double defensive midfielder with Kanter.
At this time, Chelsea's formation changed into a four-midfield position that was different from the ordinary one. To be precise, it was a -2 formation.
In this way, Chelsea can accumulate more troops in the center and avoid Bayern's key attacks on its two wings.
Aren't you Bayern very good at grabbing it? Then come and grab it again now!
After Pan Yi finished arranging the first response of the game, he turned around and looked at Guardiola in front of the visiting team's coaching bench.
At this time, Gua Shuai saw Pan Yi's adjustment and happened to look over here, and his eyes immediately met.
Pan Yi hooked his finger in that direction:
"You, come here!"
