Chapter 455 There are already five formations in 20 minutes

"Pan Yi's targeted arrangements are really fun."

After seeing Pan Yi's provocative little finger stretched out to him, Guardiola quickly understood Pan Yi's intention for this adjustment.

From three defenders to four defenders, and at the same time, the defensive midfielder has also changed from one Kanter to two, and there are instantly more ball-playing points in the backcourt, which greatly relieves the pressure on Chelsea's midfielders and backcourt players to get the ball.

Even if Bayern's attacking group can run well, it will be difficult to steal the ball from the six players in Chelsea's backcourt.

After all, everyone in Chelsea works well together. If the pressure is fruitless, it will be a waste of energy.

Moreover, after Marcos Alonso and Azpilicueta shrink back, if Ribery and Robben continue to push forward, the space behind them will inevitably become larger. Chelsea's counterattack

It will be more comfortable to fight.

Another point is that after this adjustment, Chelsea has formed a combination of double midfielders + double central midfielders in the middle. The positions of the three lines will be more balanced, and it will be more difficult for Bayern to make trouble in the Blues' ribs and midfield.

And if forced to play long passes, only Lewandowski has a strong ability to compete for the top of Bayern's front line. Others like Robben, Ribery, and Muller will have a hard time competing with Chelsea.

Van Dijk, David Luiz and others to compete.

In other words, after Pan Yi used this trick, he almost cracked the opening tactic that Guardiola had thought about for a long time to break Chelsea!

This also makes Guardiola feel a little helpless.

Pan Yi's just a change of formation on the spot was worth the tactics he had thought about for a long time. This guy was so terrifying!

Of course, Guardiola doesn't have to worry too much now.

After all, after this change of formation, Chelsea's defense in the center became stronger, but its offensive firepower on both wings also dropped significantly.

The two wing-backs have become regular full-backs, and their positions are also deeper.

In this way, as long as Bayern does not advance rashly, Chelsea will not be able to get any decent offensive opportunities.

So Guardiola started dancing on the sidelines again and began to remind his players.

Especially for Robben and Ribery, they must pay attention to their positioning and not be lured into the hinterland by their opponents, thus exposing the large space behind them!

As a result, in the next ten minutes or so, the game began to calm down.

Chelsea stabilized their position and began to control the ball in the backcourt, and then moved forward layer by layer.

Bayern, on the other hand, no longer carried out crazy pressure in the frontcourt, but instead blocked Chelsea's advancement in the midfield.

The two sides formed a balance of power.

This is the situation Pan Yi wants to see.

In other words, the current situation is developing in Chelsea's favor.

Otherwise, if they keep playing like they did in the first ten minutes, Chelsea may not be able to withstand it!——

"Pan Yi made a good move and successfully defused Guardiola's initial attack."

Mourinho in the stands nodded and said.

Today's Champions League final can be said to be a duel between the two most tactically proficient head coaches in the world. Naturally, it attracted many colleagues to watch the game.

In addition to Mourinho, who is about to leave for Manchester United, there are also Liverpool coach Klopp, Arsenal coach Wenger... and even former Manchester United coach Sir Alex Ferguson, etc., all came to the San Siro Stadium.

At the beginning, Bayern had the advantage on the field, which actually surprised the famous coaches, but it is understandable.

After all, it can be said that Guardiola knows Pan Yi better than anyone present. It is understandable that he can develop an effective opening tactic against Chelsea.

But Pan Yi's response was even more amazing.

This can be seen from the recent changes in the situation on the court.

From being continuously attacked into the penalty area by the opponent for ten minutes or so, and being in danger and unable to even hold the ball, now he is able to stabilize his defense, hold the ball, and even continue to advance forward and start a counterattack. This all proves Pan Yi's ability.

How effective the adjustment is.

"But from my observation point of view, Guardiola also took the initiative to slow down the intensity of pressing, which gave Chelsea a chance to breathe." Dortmund's current head coach Tuchel said.

Among this group of famous coaches, Tuchel's status in the world is relatively low, but he is also considered a leader among the younger generation of coaches.

He became the head coach of Mainz in 2009. In the 2010-11 season, he led Mainz to seven consecutive victories in the Bundesliga. Tuchel also became famous in German football.

After Klopp left Dortmund, Tuchel also entered the Westfalenstadion and followed in Klopp's footsteps and began coaching the Hornets.

However, the current Tuchel is not the person who can lead the team to win the Champions League and become the best head coach in the world.

Due to the lack of European competition opportunities, he has had relatively few confrontations with famous coaches, so he still doesn't quite understand the game between Pan Yi and Guardiola.

After listening to what he said, his "predecessor" Klopp shook his head and said: "Do you think Guardiola wants to slow down? This is a last resort. After Pan Yi's change of formation, if Bayern continues to attack like the opening, it will only suffer."

It will be myself."

Everyone nodded.

Everyone can see this.

And Tuchel is obviously still a little too green now.

"What should Guardiola do?" Tuchel frowned, "Just give up the attack? Isn't that playing into Pan Yi's plan?"

"I think Guardiola's current response is just a temporary compromise. He must still be thinking about how to score as soon as possible." Wenger thought, "We all know that if we don't score as soon as possible when facing Chelsea,

They often end up in dangerous situations.”

Klopp, Ancelotti, Van Gaal...all those who had suffered losses in front of Pan Yi's Chelsea nodded their heads one after another.

At this time, Ranieri, who had been sitting silently, suddenly stood up: "Look, Bayern's formation has changed again!"

Everyone took a closer look, and sure enough.

While they were talking, Guardiola had already completed a series of arrangements on the sidelines.

Thomas Muller was pushed up front, forming a double striker with Lewandowski.

The forward positions of Robben and Ribery remain unchanged, but Vidal and Xabi Alonso stand together to form a double midfielder.

Bayern's current formation has become one!

This is an extremely offensive formation!

This also made the coaches present exclaim: "Is he crazy? He is risking his life!"

Indeed, even though everyone could feel that Guardiola was holding back some skills, they never expected that he would unleash such a big move!

The tactics of four forwards and two midfielders showed Guardiola's attitude and determination towards this game.

He made it clear that he wanted to go all out and try to score a goal from Chelsea in the first half when the team was still physically fit.

I will not give up until I achieve my goal!——

Not only the famous coaches in the stands, but also Pan Yi was a little surprised in front of the home team's coaching bench.

Guardiola's move really feels like burning the boat.

In most cases, the formation will only be used in some games with clear strengths and weaknesses, commonly known as "cruel games."

Because although this formation looks beautiful and has strong offensive power, due to the disadvantage of the number of midfielders, it is actually difficult to take advantage of opponents of equal strength.

Not to mention that Bayern is actually slightly inferior to Chelsea in terms of overall strength!

And if it is really a close match and one side uses it, it is usually because they are lagging behind in the game and need to score a goal urgently.

But now the Champions League final is still in the first half, and neither side has scored a goal. Guardiola has resorted to such a desperate formation, which is naturally very surprising.

Pan Yi was surprised, but not panicked.

He has seen many big scenes!

After thinking for a while, Pan Yi roughly guessed the reason why Guardiola had the confidence to do this.

This isn't just about risking one's life.

Due to Pan Yi's change of formation, Chelsea's current -2 formation has accumulated a large number of troops in the middle, which makes it difficult for Bayern to attack in the middle.

Therefore, Guardiola decided to simply abandon the attack in the center and instead concentrate his firepower on both sides, which is to hit Marcos Alonso and Azpilicueta!

After this change, in addition to the original full-backs Alaba and Lahm, Bayern's Muller and Lewandowski on the forward line can also better support Ribery and Robben on the wings respectively, against Chelsea.

Two full-backs perform fixed-point blasts!

In other words, under this formation, whether on the left or right, Bayern can form a situation where three attackers correspond to one full-back, with more attacking and less attacking.

This is different from the strong-side overload that coaches often use sometimes, because Bayern's attack focus will not be on one side, but on both sides, 3-on-1, which makes it more difficult for Chelsea to guard against.

It can be said that this change of Bayern's formation is actually a very effective change made by Guardiola after Pan Yi became -2!

"Awesome." Pan Yi couldn't help but praise secretly.

Even he couldn't figure out Guardiola's thoughts immediately.

He also responds quickly to situations!

And this is a manifestation of the charm of football on the court.
