Football’s First Defender

Finally got the starting list of both sides!

Bayern, the home team, still chose the 442 system that the team is more familiar with in this game!

The goalkeeper is Captain Kahn! As the team's meritorious goalkeeper, Kahn, who will retire after the end of this season, is still in front of Bayern's goal, dedicating his last energy. The goal he guards is important to most teams. Words are still insurmountable barriers!

On the back line, the two full-backs of the German national team, Jansen and Lahm, are separated on the left and right. The two central defenders are still the main force, Demichelis and Lucio!

In the midfield, Ribery, Ze Roberto, Van Bommel and Schweinsteiger lined up from left to right! All four of them can play an important role in the attack!

Especially on the left side where Ribery and Ze Roberto are, the cooperation of the two, coupled with Jansen who can insert at any time from the rear, can turn the opponent's right defense upside down! This will be Zenit's goal. This game is the biggest test on the defensive end!

And on the striker line, Klose and Podolski partnered to play double strikers!

Podolski, who became famous at a young age, was firmly pressed on the bench by Tony this season, but in the limited playing time, he still scored 9 goals for Bayern in various competitions! This game started, I believe it is also holding my breath and wanting to prove myself!

Compared with Bayern Munich's more offensive formation and players, Zenit, which has always been known for its offense, has a slightly conservative lineup for this game!

Zenit's starting lineup has changed a lot in this game, and the positions of the players have changed a lot!

The main goalkeeper is Malafeyev. He has performed very well recently and has made great contributions to Zenit in front of the goal!

The back line is still the left back Anyukov, the center back Yang Feng and Skrtel's partner, and the right back chooses Riksen to fight against the opponent's ace Franck Ribery!

Ricksen's defensive ability is naturally very good. He has also played the position of right back in his career. He also played the position of right back before Zenit. His performance is not bad!

However, in such a crucial game, choosing such an unexpected personnel arrangement, I believe Zenit's coaching staff must have their own ideas!

In midfield, Denisov is still on the left, Tymoshchuk and Shrokov are in the middle, and Ziryanov is on the right!

As for the striker, it's Pogrebnyak and Arshavin!

But this is the official positioning map. Compared with the 442 formation that Bayern often plays, Zenit may have a greater possibility to let Arshavin retreat to the right and make Zilyanov return to the middle position. , Participate in defense and offense, change the formation to 451, these must be observed during the game!

However, Rixon's cameo as a full-back can be seen as a special arrangement made by Zenit in response to Bayern Munich's strong offensive ability on the left! After all, in terms of defensive ability, Rixon's defensive strength , in today's Zenit team, it must be the top! I just don't know whether Zenit's adjustment at the cost of giving up the right back attack will have the expected effect!

After the song was played and the captains of the two sides confirmed the side and ball rights, the two teams adjusted, and the game officially started with the referee's whistle!

After the kick-off from Zenit, Arshavin passed the ball straight back to Tymoshchuk!

Tymoshchuk didn't stop the ball, and directly chose to walk the ground and pass the ball to Arshavin who had already pulled to the right!

Bayern Munich's defense is not yet deployed!

Arshavin also did not delay the running of the football, and directly passed the ball to the penalty area!

Pogrebnyak slammed into Bayern's penalty area at the kick-off!

The opening is only 10 seconds!

Pogrebnyak unloads the football on the penalty line and wants to hit the goal!

This is an opening attack tactic that Zenit had planned for a long time, but Lucio had already posted it when Pogrebnyak unloaded the football!

Although Boshen's body is dominant, it's not enough to crush Lucio, and he can't get a chance to swing his legs comfortably. At the same time, Ram rushed to steal the ball directly. Boshen didn't complete the final goal. one strike!

And after Lahm steals the ball, he also advances quickly. Taking advantage of the Zenit players' chance to retreat, he directly makes a long pass to the open space in the frontcourt, trying to find Klose who has already rushed to the open space!

Although this ball seems to have a good landing point, but because of the pursuit of the landing point, the speed is not very fast! Although Yang Feng can't catch up with Klose who started early, he still relies on his height advantage. Under such circumstances, he took the lead in reaching the football and headed the ball towards his own goalkeeper!

Less than a minute after the start of the game, both sides had a fairly threatening attack!

Malafeyev kicked his feet directly and looked for Pogrebnyak in the frontcourt!

However, Lucio's positioning is very accurate. Although Boshen still has the physical advantage, he cannot fully control the direction and strength of the header in the physical confrontation. Although Boshen competed for the incoming ball in this ball, But the second goal is still Bayern's ball!

There is still no intention of wasting time to control the ball. After Lahm took the ball, he directly passed a short pass to Van Bommel in the midfield. Van Bommel quickly transferred the ball to Ribery who had already inserted on the left!

After Ribery got the ball, he attracted Zenit's defensive attention!

At this time, Bayern's left back Jansen has already quickly inserted. Ribery waited until Jansen got the ball, and stuffed the ball directly to the left front!

Yang Sen took advantage of the fact that the opponent's defense had not yet shifted to his side, and made a long pass without stopping the ball!

This time the 45-degree long pass is for Klose in the penalty area!

Just when the ball was transferred to the left, Klose and Podolski had already entered the penalty area!

Because the pass was a bit late, Skrtel, who was in charge of marking Klose, did not hit the football. Instead, Klose, although unable to head the ball directly, still struggled to take off and rubbed the ball to the right of the penalty area. side!

Schweinsteiger! Has quickly entered the penalty area from the right! On the right side of the big penalty area, there is no Zenit defender who can step forward to interfere!

Just hit the door!

This ball!

Plenty of power!

It's a pity! It's still biased!

Maybe less than 10 centimeters from the goal post!

The opening is only 58 seconds!

Schweinsteiger almost rewrote the score!

This is Bayern Munich!

The counterattack process just now was smooth and flowing, without delay!

Obviously Zenit's offensive round, but in an instant, Bayern almost completed a fatal counterattack opportunity!

Obviously Zenit has assembled many defensive players in the midfield, but just now, with almost no resistance, they let Bayern penetrate the defense and complete an excellent goal!

When Schweinsteiger hit the goal, there were no players around him to defend. I hope this goal can sound a wake-up call for Zenit. You must defend well. Even if it is your own offensive opportunity, you must be careful about the opponent's direct attack. Fight back! This Bayern team is not the opponent they faced before, they are fully capable of killing the game in an instant!
