Volume 3 The Myth of the Gunslinger Chapter 216 Demi's Law
Arsenal fans cheered and were excited by Li Huan's volley, Bayern fans were also very calm, not frustrated because they were behind, and there were not many people who blamed the wrong central defender Demichelis.
This strange phenomenon among Bayern fans is because of the Demy's law, which is a miracle created by Demi in the course of this season's European Champions Cup, as long as Demy makes a mistake, no matter how much Bayern is behind, even if it is three goals behind at halftime, Bayern will be able to turn the tables.
Bayern knocked Juventus in the last round of the group stage, in the first half, Demi held the ball in the backfield and passed two people, and was about to charge Buffon who was 80 meters away, but unfortunately the ball was broken, Trezeguet took advantage of the gap left by Demi to score, and then, Bayern came back to his senses and broke the world's first goal Buffon 4 goals in a row, and won to advance to the round of 16.
Another marking error against the Purple Lily allowed Kroldrup to score, and Bayern were able to advance to the last eight. At Allianz, Demy was even more outrageous, giving a big gift in the opening minute, unforced to fall to the ground and watch Wayne Rooney break through Bout's goal, and at Old Trafford Demy lost 2 minutes and 45 seconds to lead to Gibson's first goal, but in the end Bayern still managed to turn the tables and reach the last four.
Now that Demichelis has made another mistake, will Bayern reverse Arsenal again?
Arsenal's attack is not over!
After the first hit, the Gunners continued to control the football at their feet through the passing and playmaking ability of the midfield, tearing away Bayern's defence with cross-pass backs and occasionally. Lure Bayern's players to press and scramble to open up the defensive space at Bayern's back, making full use of Cesc Fabregas's through ball and Li Huan's ability to cross the bottom.
And at this time, Bayern also began to exert force, under the leadership of Olich, Schweinsteiger, and Robben, Bayern launched a crazy rush from the front, and Olic followed Li Huan like a mad dog, even if Li Huan did not have the ball, he did not relax his marking of Li Huan, so that Arsenal lacked a stable point of possession in the backfield.
Arsenal and Barcelona have similar characteristics, but Arsenal has many direct passes and fast attacks, this is not that Arsenal does not want to control the ball in the backfield, but their back line lacks the tacit understanding and ball control ability of Barcelona, and Li Huan is a rare defender with strong ball control ability on the Arsenal back line, so when the opponent is pressing, the defenders and the back waist often pass the ball to Li Huan, and now Li Huan is being marked by Olich, Bayern's front court is pressing, and Arsenal's backfield can only choose to kick off. After the ball is driven to the front, Arsenal does not have an advantage, after all, in terms of high-altitude balls, Arsenal is not at all like the Premier League team he is in, whether it is Van Persie or Eduardo in front, or even Bendtner sitting on the bench, he is not good at heading points.
After Li Huan's goal, Arsenal's possession time plummeted, Bayern didn't have control of the ball and didn't see any big disadvantage, and after Arsenal didn't have the advantage of possession, the threat immediately decreased, and Bayern took the opportunity to launch a counterattack.
“…… Robben underneath ...... Yes! Cut in...... Long shot! Almunia saved the ball ......"
'Lahm goes down, Klich fouls, free-kick...... Lahm crossed the ball into the box and Vermaelen headed it over...... Van Bommel hits the ball over the crossbar. ”
Schweinsteiger made a series of passes on the edge of the box, a shot on goal, the ball was cut off, and Vermaelen cleared it with a big foot...... The ball was won by Bayern again......"
Bayern's attack is not as cumbersome as Arsenal's, either a low cross, a long pass from the back, or an inward shot from Robben and Lahm, and occasionally a breakthrough with the ball from Piggy Schweinsteiger. Although the success rate of such an attack is not high, the continuous shooting makes Bayern's attack full of momentum, and it feels like a black cloud is about to destroy the city.
In the thirtieth minute of the game, Schweinsteiger pulled to the left wing of Arsenal and attacked Klich and Song with Robben, Schweinsteiger broke through French full-back Klich, but was immediately brought down by Song. Bayern Munich win a free kick near the corner area.
Bayern Munich was about to take a free kick, right-back Lahm stood in front of the ball, due to the angle, even Li Huan could not score directly, so Robben stood not far from Ram, ready to play a tactical free kick with Ram, and the Arsenal players did not defend against Robben, Walcott has been following Robben.
In the penalty area of the arsenal, Muller, Demichelis, Van Bitten and other good headers kept moving repeatedly in the penalty area, trying not to let the Gunners die. The best way to make a breakthrough in a situation where you are not as skilled as your opponent is to open gaps from set-pieces and counter-attacks.
Force!
The referee's whistle sounded!
Seeing that he couldn't cooperate with Robben, Lahm sent the ball directly to Arsenal's penalty area to find Muller!
Bayern and Arsenal players were entangled in the penalty area, Muller was held by Vermaelen with his body and had no room to jump, the strong Demichelis was helpless under the pressure of the experienced Galla, and Bayern's defender Van Bitten with a knife happened to be targeted by Li Huan, and Van Bitten was almost desperate for grabbing points.
The ball flew through the penalty area, and Almunia jumped up to take the black and white elf off, but after jumping up, he found that it was difficult for him to hold the ball safely because of his spinning surname, and the Spanish goalkeeper hastily turned the ball into a double fist and knocked the ball out of the box.
Standing on the edge of Arsenal's box were Schweinsteiger and Altentop, two of Bayern's long-range shooters and robbers, waiting on the edge of the box to snatch the ball or a long-range shot. Almunia saved the ball right in front of Altentop.
The Turk chested the ball and didn't wait for it to hit the ground, and fired a volley that flew straight into the top right corner of the goal, and Almunia had not yet returned to his position, and there was nothing he could do about such a long-range shot.
At 1:1, Altentop equalized the score.
"Nice nice long shot! This is a scene of the drama, this is Van Gaal's genius, it was Altentop who broke the deadlock, you must know that in a heavyweight game like the Champions League final, he didn't think about starting at all, and most people didn't expect him to be able to squeeze Ribery to start. What I didn't expect was that he actually scored, in the final, many times a goal can completely affect the ownership of the trophy, and now I really believe that Demy's law invisibly played a role in deciding the game......" the commentator shouted loudly.
Immediately after the goal, Altentop got up from the ground and celebrated wildly, and ran to the dugout with his thick thighs, but his teammates did not catch up with him.
However, it soon became clear what Turkey's Mateus meant, that he was going to hug Louis van Gaal, who had started him. Without Louis van Gaal, without any manager, Altentop would not have been able to start today, because no coach would have put Ribery on the bench.
The Bayern fans in the stands were already getting carried away with excitement, roaring, howling, jumping, cheering for the team's equalizer, and what was even more interesting was that it didn't take long for the fans to start shouting the name "Demichelis", and all the Bayern players understood that it was the fans chanting "Demichelis' Law", and this goal made Bayern fans believe that Bayern would have the last laugh again.
Arsenal was obviously stimulated by Altentop's goal just now, Li Huan broke through Altentop twice in a row with his personal breakthrough ability in a short period of time, if it weren't for Altentop's drag and interference to spell the price of a yellow card, maybe Li Huan would have overtaken the score again.
Driven by Li Huan, Arsenal's attack rose sharply, suppressing Bayern again, and even Klich on the side frequently assisted, forcing Bayern to retreat step by step, only the ability to parry did not fight back, and everyone took out 100% strength to deal with Arsenal's tidal attack, and in the minutes after the goal, Bayern did not even have many opportunities to cross the middle circle.
However, Arsenal's attack has a big hidden danger, because Bayern's counterattack on the right side is very sharp, and Klich assists forward to give the opponent space to counterattack.
Wenger sat silently in the coach's seat, still did not give any guidance on the situation on the field, attacked, and defeated Bayern with attack. This is the tactics formulated by Arsenal before the game, in all fairness, Bayern's staffing and technical ability are certainly worse than Arsenal's, Van Gaal has only been in charge of Bayern for less than a season, it is impossible to compare with Wenger's hard work in Arsenal for more than ten years, Arsenal's initiative to attack is the best strategy, and the attack must take a little risk, but if you want to win the championship, Arsenal must bear this risk.
But Wenger didn't expect that before the game, Van Gaal had bought the staff to get out Arsenal's starting formation and style of play, and was fully prepared for Arsenal's attack.
Arsenal's big attack did not break through Bayern's layers of defense, Olic and Altentop's harassment tactics against Li Huan were very successful, Schweinsteiger did not give Fabregas time to easily dribble and pass, and Klich's insertion was even more than successful, and every time Robben counterattacked, he had to let his companion wipe his ass for him, so angry that Walcott couldn't stop yelling at him.
Looking at the forty minutes that have passed in the first half, the score between Arsenal and Bayern is still 1:1, Arsenal's attack is more fierce, and the Arsenal fans in the stands have also stood up to cheer for the players, hoping that the players can seize the last few minutes of the first half to overtake the score.
