Chapter 366: Admiration

When the ball shot by Ballack finally fell into the goal of Bayern Munich, the whole Allianz Arena was suddenly quiet for a moment. m

"Lazio rhythm" is very famous, and now the whole world knows what it means.

So after Lazio scored, everyone thought of the word "Lazio rhythm".

The fans of Bayern Munich felt like they were falling into an ice cave.

It was not just them who felt like they were falling into an ice cave, but also the players of Bayern Munich.

They knew very well what they were going to do in this game before the game. The goal of their training was not to lose the ball.

0:0 is the best result.

All the preparations were for this purpose.

But now, this purpose is gone and has become a bubble.

Then their efforts before the game will naturally lose their meaning.

This is a big blow to the morale of Bayern Munich.

So when Ballack scored, many Bayern Munich players held their heads with their hands and looked painful.

Because they knew that the plan had failed.

Heynckes stood on the sidelines, looking at everything happening on the court with a wooden expression.

It is indeed Lazio...

He sighed in his heart.

Just before the goal, Bayern Munich concentrated four defensive players in the middle area in front of their penalty area. This defensive strength is already very strong.

Plus Lazio's own four offensive players.

There are eight players in that narrow area.

Any normal team will consciously avoid this dense middle road when attacking. Although the middle road is important, the opponent also knows this and will inevitably deploy heavy troops.

Attacking in the middle road is often a waste of time and takes a lot of time. But there is no breakthrough.

So everyone will choose to go to the side road,

and will open the situation from the side road. The easiest way to use the side road is to cross the side road.

Lazio did want to develop to the side road at the beginning, so when Azpilicueta pretended to break through vertically, Contento would be easily fooled-this is a routine.

But he didn't expect that Lazio would not take the usual way. Azpilicueta quickly passed the ball to the middle road, and the ball soon returned to the middle road.

What happened next was all in the narrow area of ​​the middle road.

This kind of confidence and skill cannot but be admired.

Although they are opponents, Heynckes still wants to praise Lazio's performance.

After the ball was passed to the middle, everyone was still running and supporting, especially Ledesma's forward insertion, which made Bayern Munich think that Lazio's attack would still develop to the wing, and then hit back to the middle until in front of the goal.

So even if there is a gap in the middle, Bayern Munich's players have no time to take care of it at this time, and all their energy is on defending the ribs and the gaps on the wing, which gives Lazio an excellent opportunity.

In the end, Ballack decisively rushed from the middle, like a sharp dagger, directly stabbing into the heart of Bayern Munich.

A fatal blow!

Heynckes turned his head and glanced at the Lazio coaching bench. Their head coach Changsheng stood up from his seat. He waved his fist and walked to the sidelines.

It was this person who trained Lazio to what it is now.

What an amazing young man...

This was the first time Heynckes played against Changsheng.

He understood why his predecessor and Barcelona would lose to this young man.

Although Lazio's foundation is a little lacking, it is not a real giant.

But Heynckes knows very well. Lazio is creating foundation under the leadership of this young man. In a few years, this will be the foundation of Lazio's giants!

※ ※ ※

Balak didn't celebrate much after scoring the goal, because Bayern Munich is the team he played for. He also grew into the world's top midfielder in Bayern Munich.

He has feelings for Bayern Munich.

Now he plays for Lazio and scored a goal against Bayern Munich. It also means that he deprived Bayern Munich of the hope of winning.

So he didn't celebrate.

He didn't celebrate, but it didn't mean that others didn't celebrate.

His Lazio teammates rushed up, surrounded him and hugged him.

This goal broke Bayern Munich's defensive tactics, and the next game was much easier for Lazio.

Now they have an away goal, they can choose to shrink their defense and slow down the pace. If Bayern Munich doesn't press out, then it will be good to win 1:0 away from home until the end of the game.

Anyway, when it comes to Lazio's home court, Lazio has the final say and will never give Bayern Munich a chance to turn the tables away from home.

And if Bayern Munich wants to press forward to attack and equalize the score.

Lazio will quickly change from a slow pace to a fast pace.

They are very skilled in this rhythm change.

It won't be a problem at all.

So if Bayern Munich dares to press forward to attack, they will be overwhelmed by Lazio's more fierce offensive artillery fire...

※ ※ ※

The next game confirmed this point.

At the beginning, Bayern Munich's players still wanted to equalize the score as soon as possible and tie the game.

But when Lazio almost scored two consecutive shots, Bayern Munich learned their lesson.

They no longer expected to equalize the score, and losing only one goal at home was acceptable.

So they retreated all the way.

Hope to drag out the remaining game time.

But even so, they still lost a goal in the second half...

After David Silva's long shot was saved by Butt, the Bayern Munich defender cleared the ball not far away and it fell to Modric's feet.

Modric reorganized the attack.

Then Ledesma kicked the ball into Butt's goal.

"Ledesma - 2:0! Lazio leads by two goals! This is on the road! This score has almost allowed Lazio to advance in advance! Although they only scored two goals! But looking at Lazio's game state, even if the first round of the game ends like this, it will be difficult for Bayern Munich to turn the tables in the second round!"

"Bayern Munich is unable to stop Lazio at home. They are two goals behind... It is almost wishful thinking to want to eliminate Lazio... This Lazio is simply too strong! They are the real invincible battleship universe team!"

"The former Bundesliga overlord was beaten to a pulp by Lazio at their doorstep. This must be a bad taste. But they can only accept it helplessly. Because this is reality. Bayern Munich is weaker than Lazio, and weak strength means being beaten..."

The stands of the Allianz Arena were completely quiet, and Bayern Munich fans had to accept this reality. Their team is far inferior to Lazio.

※ ※ ※

In the end, Lazio won the game 2:0 away from home, and the victory of this game also set the tone for the second round.

Although the second round of the game still needs two weeks, everyone knows that in these two weeks, Bayern Munich will probably find it difficult to make any plans to save the defeat.

They can score two goals against Bayern Munich at their home stadium, so why can't they score more goals when they return to their own home stadium?

Bayern Munich has actually been eliminated.

At the press conference after the game. Heynckes said that he was convinced.

"Lazio's performance is very good, they deserve the victory, they are the strongest team in today's football, I am not exaggerating at all. This game with them also taught us a lot..."

Hearing the old coach praise himself so much, Changsheng's attitude must be better. Others are smiling and welcoming. I can't just slap them in the face.

So Changsheng also gave Bayern Munich a high evaluation.

"Bayern Munich is clearly on the right track. The football they play is very different from last season, and I think it's right. I wish you good luck."

Just like that, in a good atmosphere, the first round of Lazio's Champions League quarter-finals ended.

Lazio returned to Italy and returned to the rhythm of the domestic league.

※ ※ ※

February 27, the 27th round of the league. Lazio challenged Cagliari away.

In this game, Changsheng did not rotate.

In fact, he did not rotate in the first two games.

Since Lazio lost two goals in the make-up match against Udinese, he no longer made large-scale rotations.

The eleven players who started in the match against Udinese have not had a chance to play yet.

This is Changsheng's punishment for them. He would rather risk his team losing the game. He also wants to let the players know that since they have made a mistake, they must accept the punishment.

This is the rule.

No one, no matter if he is the main force or the core. Can't escape this rule.

Everyone is equal in front of his Changsheng rule.

At first, he did this to intimidate the players.

Now he doesn't need to intimidate anymore, and everyone knows this.

So now it's pure punishment.

After the punishment is over. These players will return to the game rotation.

Obviously, it's still in the punishment period.

So even though these players played three games in a week, they still have to continue to start.

Changsheng seems to be squeezing the physical strength of these players, but in fact it is not the case.

In the match against Cagliari, Lazio's tactics are slow-paced, controlling the football under their feet, using passes to mobilize opponents, and running less.

In this way, Lazio's physical strength will be much less than that of the opponent.

So although it is a continuous battle, there is actually no problem with the physical strength of these players.

There is still no problem playing Cagliari.

In the end, Lazio relied on this slow pace to grind the opponent 3:0 away.

In fact, it only took ten minutes to score three goals.

In ten minutes, Lazio scored three goals in a row.

Then the game was no suspense.

In the following time, Lazio passed the ball back and forth, fully mobilizing the opponent while giving themselves time to rest.

So after the game, Lazio's players looked very relaxed.

If you look at their expressions, you won't feel how tired they are at all.

Lazio can continue like this!
