This time, Rodriguez swept across the front of the restricted area and gave the ball to Gao Shunyao. In the restricted area, Gao Shunyao pushed the ball at close range, and Wolfsburg finalized the victory. Wolfsburg won the game and successfully advanced to the first round.
Wolfsburg’s state of four wars and four wins seems to have been found back, and after confirming that he was in full state, Wolfsburg didn’t fight with his opponent again in the league game on the 14th. When the first round of the league game came, Hertha Berlin was surprised to find that Wolfsburg didn’t send Gao Shunyao and other main players. They were absent-minded after the game.
Hertha Berlin didn’t know whether they should be depressed or happy. They felt despised by their opponents, but it was good news for them that they drew their opponents instead of losing to Wolfsburg.
And this draw is not bad news for Wolfsburg. On the 19th, the Champions League match is just around the corner. Wolfsburg also chose to give up a league draw rationally, which is nothing for them now, and they are completely acceptable to it.
After the first round, Wolfsburg scored 16 wins, two draws and three losses and remained in the second place in the league. After the first round, they scored 5 points, but they were still the second team in the league.
Behind them, Leverkusen has been scored by Wolfsburg because of a bad start for half a season. After losing two of the four games, they now have 46 points, and the gap between them has widened. Even though Wolfsburg failed to win in this round of the league, at least they don’t have to worry about Leverkusen chasing after them head-on.
But they don’t have this worry, but they also have to accept another reality. At the same time, the Wolfsburg score was gradually dropped by Bayern in front of them. In the past, Bayern still had two draws. From the first round until now, they have not made mistakes and won 13 games in a row. They have been winning.
The 13-game winning streak is about to catch up with the Bundesliga’s best record, and the unbeaten distance in the first round after the start is only 3 games, which is even better than the Bundesliga’s unbeaten record of 8 games in a single season. Now it seems a bit precarious in front of Bayern. This team’s performance this season is simply suffocating, with a difference of 9 points from the second place in the league and 13 points from the third place. Such a leading score is rare in both Bundesliga and European football.
This opponent is really terrible. It seems that their goal is not to win the championship, but to break all the records. The Wolfsburg players are also a little surprised to find that if Bayern really wants to go for the record, his team may also be in trouble.
Bayern’s fourth round match happened to be against Wolfsburg, and the unbeaten record of the first four games in the Bundesliga has always belonged to Leverkusen. If Bayern wants to set a new record in Leverkusen, they must beat Wolfsburg before they can do it. They are afraid that they will have a hard battle.
On the one hand, they are really jealous that Bayern can have such a strong and outstanding strength, on the other hand, they do have some admiration and appreciation for the strength of their opponents. Which of these two emotions makes Wolfsburg players full of expectations for the four rounds of competition?
They’re not interested in being easily remembered on their own bodies-it’s too bad to be remembered as a stepping stone.
However, the Wolfsburg players also know another thing at this time. They have other more important things to take care of before playing Bayern. After all, Wolfsburg’s goal this season is not to play against the strong enemies, which is interesting, but they are really somewhere else.
Not to mention that the fourth round or the first round is not something they need to consider now. For Wolfsburg, there is one thing they need to consider now, that is, they are approaching the Champions League on the 19th, and their really important game is about to begin.
Section 427 The enemy is strong and we are weak
When the Champions League match day came on September 19th, when the Wolfsburg players boarded the plane for Manchester, they listened to their teammates playing music in the cabin and watched their teammates humming along with the music. Gao Shunyao suddenly felt a little emotional.
A few months ago, when the Wolfsburg players went to Manchester before the Manchester United game, although they knew that they were facing a team that had just changed coaches, their strength might not be as good as that of the previous team, at that time, Wolfsburg still had some inexplicable fear and attention to the enemy, and in a few months, they were going to challenge Manchester City, which was at its peak, but at this moment, the Wolfsburg players were all gearing up to do something big.
It was a more difficult game, but at this time, Wolfsburg’s confidence soared. They didn’t have the same kind of foresight as before. On the contrary, they were full of momentum. For a while, Gao Shunyao didn’t know whether it was because their opponents were not giants, which made them have enough confidence or because they didn’t have a retreat, so they all had to win.
He doesn’t know what the morale of his team came from, but whatever the reason, the high morale of Wolfsburg now makes Gao Shunyao very happy. This game, Wolfsburg really needs some momentum to win, which is one of the few things that they may be better than their opponents.
The two rounds between Wolfsburg and Manchester City are about to start, and the first game is also an away game at Manchester City’s home. Wolfsburg’s requirements for this game are very accurate from the beginning. For Wolfsburg players, winning this game is their greatest requirement.
The requirement of winning away from home is a bit high, but it is a last resort for Wolfsburg. Although theoretically speaking, Wolfsburg has an advantage in the schedule, the schedule can make the team have an advantage in its own home game at the final decision time, but the problem is that the Bundesliga team has never been superior to the Premier League team’s home record, which also makes Wolfsburg dare not think too much about the draw away from home.
Wolfsburg made a lot of preparations before the Manchester City game, and it is also important to investigate the experience of a Bundesliga before the Premier League. When they opened the previous records, Wolfsburg players also found an embarrassing fact. Although the situation in the Bundesliga seems to be excellent in the past two years, it seems that the Bundesliga’s home advantage has never been great in terms of Champions League experience.
From a few years ago, Manchester United played against Schalke and reached the final. Chelsea played Bayern and won the Champions League. Arsenal played Bayern and lost at home, but they won. At least, they went home and died. Even last season, Wolfsburg didn’t win at home. In recent years, the Bundesliga met the Premier League in the Champions League. Even back in 1991, Bayern beat Manchester United only by winning at the last minute. Although it is said that Wolfsburg won this season. I have won Manchester United at home, but this season Manchester United is regarded as a weak chicken in Europe. It seems that there is no problem. So how big is the home advantage when the Bundesliga faces the Premier League? This problem is also worth exploring.
Although most of those losses are strictly Bayern’s painful memories, Schalke’s loss to Manchester United is not surprising at all, but it is also a very high probability that things will go wrong when the Bundesliga plays the Premier League at home. If Wolfsburg really want to win this game, then they’d better not think that their pig farm will definitely win the away game, and they’d better strive for victory.
At home, they may not be able to win the away game, but they’d better try to win, which is more secure. In any case, the other side can’t turn out too much, and they can’t relax until they win this Wolfsburg game.
After having a certain understanding of the game situation, the Wolfsburg players also knew early that it was not easy for them in this game, especially when they saw the list of the opposing players’ fields. They felt that it was not easy to win away from home, and it was even more difficult for them to look at the list of the opposing players.
In this game, Manchester City put out a 4-3-1 formation. Their goalkeeper was English international Hart defender Richards Demichelis Kong Pani Kolarov, who formed their defense line. In front of them, Manchester City put a pair of backyards, Yaya Toure and Er Nan Di Neo. Their three offensive frontcourt were navas Silva and Nasri. They chose to make the striker former Wolfsburg striker Zhe Ke.
This array can be said to be the best that Manchester City can arrange now. Their defenders are all excellent. Hart is one of the few English goalkeepers who can be trusted, and their defender Kong Pani has always been regarded as the top five defenders in the world. This season, Kolarov has gradually integrated into their attack, which is reflected in his excellent performance in the ball scene, and in the middle scene, each pair of midfielders is worth 30,000. This combination is even more amazing.
Apart from Bayern, Wolfsburg played against teams with this level of midfielders. It’s really no worse. The frontcourt players in Manchester City seem to be no worse than Wolfsburg. Silva is the core of Manchester City, and his reputation is also world-class. navas on both sides of him is a Spanish international with top-level dribbling breakthrough level and bottom-level ability, and Nasri has also ushered in a resurrection this season, which has reappeared in the glory of Arsenal. These two players are equally amazing, even if they are not as horrible as Bayern.
What’s more, the front striker of this team is Zhe Ke, who used to be the core player of Wolfsburg, and now he also plays in Manchester City. His strength is as white as Wolfsburg, and the name has long been the odd one of this team, but now he is the enemy of this team.
This team is really strong.
What makes people feel even more horrible is that although the opponents are very strong, in fact, this team has not finished its state. It is also a fact that continuous fighting has brought them very serious problems. Before this confrontation, many players in Manchester City suffered injuries, and this is already their state after injury.
There are many injured people in Manchester City. Let’s not say for the time being that among the main players, the main left-back of Manchester City, Sabaletta, suffered an injury at this time, which should be an important part of Manchester City’s tactics. Although he was injured in training some time ago, he has now returned to the court because of his poor state, and another injured player is the core player of Manchester City’s main striker Aguero’s team-an Argentine suffered an injury in January just after the injury, which made him in a very bad state. This game did not enter the big list.
These two injuries have a great impact, not to mention Manchester City and a series of other injuries such as jovetic Milner. They have already encountered a lot of trouble in this game, but their strength is still excellent.
And I can imagine how much pressure the team will face if they can’t seize the wind in this game, and when their players come back, even if they don’t have a chance to catch their breath, the players in Wolfsburg must strive to win.
However, victory is never something that can be decided by enthusiasm. Wolfsburg does not occupy the wind after the start of the game. After all, Manchester City’s attack after the kick-off at home is much smoother than Wolfsburg.
Manchester City’s formation is much better than Wolf Castle, and since the day of its formation, Manchester City has been striving for the beautiful goal of attacking football. After spending a lot of money to introduce many good players, Manchester City’s tactical foundation has been established, and their players’ offensive power is also very strong
If you are facing a top team like Barcelona and Real Madrid, Manchester City may be a little restrained and dare not attack too much. However, facing a team like Wolfsburg, Manchester City has no intention of thinking carefully before fighting. From the beginning of the game, Manchester City controlled the rhythm of the game by relying on its superior technology. Their players kept trying to get the ball forward, forcing Wolfsburg players to recycle it and fail to attack in their own half.
At home, Manchester City’s strength was really quite good, and after occupying the wind, they were obviously not prepared to let Wolfsburg have too many adjustment opportunities. When Wolfsburg was forced to recover after it was opened for a long time, Manchester City quickly launched its own attack. When Kolarov got the football, the Manchester City storm followed.
The fourth quarter hit the wall
Before the official start of the Champions League, if the players of Wolfsburg took victory as the ultimate pursuit from beginning to end, then the players of Manchester City seemed to want more. Before the game against Wolfsburg came, the British media had already created momentum in Manchester City. Many media boasted that it belonged to Manchester City for one year before the game. Manchester United and Chelsea rebuilt Liverpool and Arsenal. It was not enough to worry that Manchester City was destined to rise this year. In the media’s view, Manchester City will achieve a great harvest this year, and in the Champions League, Manchester City should consider not winning, but winning several issues.
Maybe Manchester City, a team that has suffered many defeats in the Champions League in recent years, decided from the beginning that it must be the winner, and it was a bit too careless to think about how many teams it would win before the game started, but Manchester City never recognized itself. What is the mistake? In their view, it is necessary to win in Wolfsburg. I haven’t heard much about what opponents the team is.
In Manchester City’s eyes, a team like Wolfsburg has never been an opponent that they should pay attention to. Although this team played against Arsenal last year and Manchester United this year, they all played fairly well. But in Manchester City’s eyes, Manchester United has been a joke this year, and Arsenal has always been their own youth training team. Beating them doesn’t necessarily mean that they are very strong, especially if it is just a group match. Who will try their best in the group match? What makes them compare with themselves in the Champions League knockout?
Although strictly speaking, Manchester City has never played in the Champions League knockout, they are still confident that their players will play well in the Champions League knockout. When they heard that their opponent is Wolfsburg, Manchester City considered things other than who the opponent would be in the first round, that is, how to play against Wolfsburg in order to make people more satisfied.
The Manchester City team had an idea early on.
It goes without saying that the best way for a team to show its strength is to attack, which makes people feel at a loss to cooperate and suppress their opponents in the backcourt. Finally, it is accompanied by a beautiful big score. In Manchester City’s view, if they can play the dominant level at home against a weak team, then people will know who is the real boss when a game comes. From the beginning of the game, Manchester City has set the tone of the game. From the beginning, they are ready to attack and completely defeat Wolfsburg.
And that’s what they did in the game. Not long after the game started, the Manchester City attack was launched from Kolarov.
Manchester City left-back Kolarov has always been a very distinctive player. This player’s defensive ability is relatively insufficient. His defensive ability is still at the level of a leaky spoon, but this player’s ball dealer is good and has an excellent ball, which also enables him to shoulder an important attack on the ball scene. He can be said to be a perfect attack. However, when the players in Wolfsburg were frustrated after the opening of the game, Kolarov also keenly grasped the opportunity and he launched an attack, which also followed suit.
In the backcourt, Kolarov directly chose a long ball. A winger Kolarov’s speed is not particularly advantageous. He knows that even if he inserts quickly, he may not be able to have a good influence. Compared with his long ball level, it can be said to be quite excellent. The ball is sent through the midfield directly from the backcourt.
In the middle scene, Yaya Toure has read his thoughts since he kicked the ball. In the middle scene, he can quickly insert the football to the front. Yaya Toure has already reached the landing position. He unloaded the ball on his side shoulder, and then the horse tilted the ball to the side. Nasri’s foot completed an attack and diversion.
Manchester City’s attack effect is obviously quite good. Kolarov directly sent the ball to the vicinity of the restricted area with an oblique foot, and it was in this position that Nasri had already got the football. They were almost the last in an attack.
A team is proud of such an attack, but it’s a pity that Manchester City’s attack is still a little too anxious. When the football reached the side, Nasri got the ball with his foot, but before he came to run, he was already wrapped around him.
If Manchester City carefully prepared for the battle against Wolfsburg before the game, they would know that Wolfsburg could do quite well on the defensive side in the past, even against top teams such as Bayern Real Madrid. The players of Wolfsburg really had to retreat after the opening because of Manchester City’s excellent technology, but this retreat does not mean that they have lost their ability to fight. On the contrary, it is also a common tactic for Wolfsburg to start shrinking defense when a line is stable.
Wolfsburg never rejected defensive counter-attacks. On the contrary, they played so many times against strong teams. In the face of defending Manchester City in this way, if an attack is carefully conceived, it may break the opponent’s defense, but it is extremely difficult to succeed in such a sloppy attack.
