Glory's subsequent performance justified the telecast's favor for him.

Villarreal's dense defence was a success in the first half, conceding just one goal at the end of the first half – meaning they didn't concede a goal after they switched to defensive stance.

So it looks like they're defending really well.

If it goes on like this, it really seems that they will really have to go back to Spain with a small goal.

It was at this time that only six minutes into the second half, and Glory blasted Villarreal's goal for the second time with a sudden long-range shot from outside the box.

2：0！

Pellegrini's wishful thinking is completely out of order!

Falling behind by two goals is already a dangerous scoreline.

If that score is over, then even if he returns to his home turf, he is not too sure that his team will be able to knock out Bayern Munich.

That means Villarreal will have to score three goals at home, or score two goals before taking the game to penalties before passing Bayern Munich out of luck. But the German team played penalties...... Obviously more advantageous than the Spanish team!

And if it's just one goal down, then Villarreal is much less under pressure.

Now the score of 0:2 makes it difficult for the Engineer to make a decision.

Pressing out to attack and try to get away goals? If the score is 1-2, it will be even more beneficial for Villarreal, who will only need a narrow 1-0 win when they return to their home stadium.

However, there is also a high risk of doing so – in order to score goals, they will have to invest more in attack, which will inevitably reduce the number of players in the team, as the number of players on the field is limited and fixed. The more troops you put into the defense, the fewer people you will be involved in the offense. Conversely, if you have more people in the attack, then there will be fewer people in the defense.

When there are fewer people, it is easy to have a lot of problems.

For example, it will be easy to be scored by the opponent.

Therefore, it is very likely that his side has not scored yet, but was scored by Bayern Munich first.

You must know that Lu Daorong's speed is very fast, Villarreal pressed the attack, and the space behind him ...... It's simply a natural racetrack for Glory, allowing him to gallop freely.

At the end of the day, Manuel Pellegrini made a decision and decided to make a "limited" counterattack on the basis of a solid defence.

That is, only when the opportunity is particularly good, will more troops be invested in the attack, otherwise continue to defend, and only let two or three people try to impact the Bayern Munich backline.

It's a compromise that exemplifies Pellegrini's hesitant mindset when making this decision. I want to attack and I don't want to concede the ball.

But how can there be such a perfect thing in the world?

So the result is that Villarreal have neither scored away goals nor continued not to concede goals.

Towards the end of the game, Schweinsteiger grabbed a penalty in front of the box and scored the ball for the third time into Villarreal's goal.

Now, even the suspense of the second round is over!

Just after Schweinsteiger scored, Glory was replaced by Santa Cruz.

He received a standing ovation from the Bayern Munich fans.

In this game, the glory of scoring two goals is definitely the biggest contributor, if it is not for his timely goal, no one knows what this game will be like after the most reckoning.

Thankfully, we are honored!

That's what a lot of people think at this time.

In the first two seasons, they were not honored, so he was only able to watch Werder Bremen dominate the domestic league.

And now, it has been replaced by Bayern Munich fans to enjoy the privileges of glory.

They're upset!

In his post-match press conference, Magath also expressed this sentiment.

'We were a bit slow to get into the game and the players weren't very focused. And the opponent played very well, so for a while we were dangerous. But at this time, Rong scored, and the whole team returned to normal. Rong's goal was crucial. Football is a team sport, and I don't want to put the credit or role of one person over the whole team...... But I still have to say: thank goodness Rong is our player! ”

Manuel Pellegrini said: "We almost got the lead. Once we get the lead, things will definitely be different. Our tactics were right, there were no problems. It's just that...... It's a pity that we didn't have Rong. ”

The Chilean spread his hands and spoke in Spanish, with a rather helpless look on his face.

Yes, what else can be done besides helplessness?

A manager, tactically right, he did everything he could.

But there were still some things he couldn't control.

That's the brilliance of a talented player.

Of course, he can use some means - tactical, technical - to curb the performance of the opponent's core players, but even if he can strictly limit the opponent for 89 minutes, it is difficult to match the opponent's talent flash for a minute.

It only takes a minute for the genius to undo his carefully prepared tactics.

This is something that makes the manager very helpless and frustrated.

There's really not much they can do. When the game starts, there are many times when whether they can win or not has less to do with their tactical arrangement, but more about the performance of the players.

Once the opposing player plays better and exceeds their expectations, then the game can change dramatically.

"Good thing we have him!"

After the game, the German newspaper Bild used such a headline, and the photo used the moment when Rong Guang scored the first goal.

Anyone who watched yesterday's game will have to take a look at the title to know what Rou Dao is talking about.

That's right, we're glad we have him!

Timo Brower was silent in this match.

Because there is nothing black about the performance of glory.

Naturally, China's media has begun a new round of hype.

Chinese fans are used to it, but they still eat it – as long as Rongguang has a good performance in the game, they will look forward to seeing what the Chinese media has to say after the game, especially if they look at the European media reports summarized by Chinese websites on the Internet.

That's the coolest thing.

Looking at those authoritative European media who used to feel particularly cold, scrambling to praise the glory, all kinds of surprises and exclamations, Chinese fans feel very happy.

There is a feeling that the former princess has now become their concubine.

After playing against Villarreal, Bayern Munich were held to a 2-2 draw at home by Cologne in the league.

The brightest man in this match was Cologne youngster Lukas Podolski.

He scored twice in the game to help Cologne hold Bayern Munich to a 2-2 draw away from home.

However, those who watched the game at the time would think that Bayern Munich should have drawn Cologne at home......

Podolski's two goals gave Cologne the lead on the road.

In the sixty-fifth minute, Magath was replaced by glory.

After Glory came on, he used a personal breakthrough in the 82nd minute to create a killing chance. At that time, the entire Cologne backline pounced and gathered around him.

Because everyone knows how powerful he is.

At this time, he passed the football out!

Glory passed the football through the crowd!

Lucas Sutton slammed the ball into the back of the net with no one to defend at all!

2：2！

Bayern Munich "drawn" Cologne in this way......

After the game, many media praised Pordowski's performance, while the media in Munich questioned Magath's appointment.

"In the first leg against Villarreal, Bayern Munich had already beaten their opponents 3-0 and it can be said that they advanced early. There is no need to retain physical strength or anything for the second round, so let Rong sit on the bench. This game Rong can start...... If Rong starts, Bayern Munich will not be in suspense at home to beat Cologne......"

"Sources say Magath did this because he was worried about Rong getting hurt...... I think Magath's protection of Rong has reached the point of perversion - Rong is not a flower in a greenhouse, it needs to be cared for so carefully......"

“…… It's not that you can't rotate, but rotation also has to be purposeful. There are some positions that obviously cannot be rotated...... For example, Rong's position does not need to be rotated, there is no problem with his physical strength, and he is rarely injured, so why rotate him? ”

In the eyes of these media, if Magath does not rotate Glory, but lets Glory continue to start in this game, then in this game, Bayern Munich will not be forced to draw by a team like Cologne.

Nor will it let that Podolsky be in the limelight.

But the clones don't think they're taking advantage.

'If it hadn't been for the win, we should have taken away a win away from home and I'm sorry we didn't...... So even though I scored two goals personally, it's insignificant in the face of the team's results......" Podolski said with some frustration in his post-match media interview.

The young boy has a bit of a "newborn calf is not afraid of tigers" momentum, and when his teammates are happy to draw away to Bayern Munich, he frowns and expresses his dissatisfaction.

Come to think of it, if it weren't for the glory, he would have become the hero who led Cologne to defeat Bayern Munich away, and that would be a real fame!

The situation had been in Cologne's favor until then, but when Glory came on the field, the situation changed - it is not an exaggeration to describe the sudden change of scenery.

Driven by glory, Bayern Munich regained its rhythm and initiative, and was forced to be a little scrambling by Cologne before, and then when it wanted to attack, it couldn't find direction and rhythm.

After Glory came on the field, the most important role was to give Bayern Munich's attack a direction.

This direction is glory, and where the glory is, football will go.

And it can be clearly seen that when Rong Guang came on the field, the players of Bayern Munich were obviously more confident in attack, and they knew how to play.

If it weren't for the fact that time was running out after the worst, Bayern Munich could have reversed it.

This is also for the sake of other Cologne players who feel that they can draw away from Bayern Munich is already remarkable.

And it is precisely because of this contrast between before and after Glory on the field that Podolski also feels uncomfortable.

Anyone who faces this kind of "cooked duck can fly" situation will be unhappy......
