At 2: 45 a.m. Beijing time on April 4th, the second round of the Champions League1quarter finals began. Bayern Munich beat Marseille 2-0 at home and advanced to the semi-finals with a total score of 4-0 in two rounds. Bayern's sharp attack in the game is impressive, but the defense of the Bundesliga giants is always scary. Considering that Bayern's semi-final opponent is likely to be La Liga giant Real Madrid, it is really embarrassing.
In the face of Marseille, Bayern played very easily in the attack, and Ribelli completely dominated the game. His assists and instigation made Olic score two goals easily, while the long-range shots of Cross, Jimosechuk and others were also quite threatening. If it weren't for the brave performance of Marseille goalkeeper Mandanda and the help of the post, Bayern could obviously score more goals. However, on the defensive end, the performance of the Bundesliga giants is not so terrible. Badstuber was even easily thrown off by his opponent's crotch. When defending Remy in the restricted area, he was easily thrown off by his opponent to finish the shot. If it weren't for the excellent performance of goalkeeper Neuer, Bayern's goal would have been breached by Marseille. Bayern's next opponent is most likely Real Madrid. The other side has a large number of top attackers in the world. With Bayern's current defensive ability, I'm afraid opponents will find many opportunities.
Another weakness of Bayern is the thickness of the bench. Today Heynckes specially arranged for Robben to rest, and Muller was injured in the game. When Cross left, Bayern's midfield became pranjic, Rafinha, Tymoshenko, Gustavo and Ribelli. Rafinha was originally a right-back, but he wanted to be a right-back in the game, while pranjic, who was born as a left-back, hit the front waist instead of crossing, which is also the reason why Bayern failed to expand the results. At present, there are not many players available in Heynckes' hands. Bayern has only one injured player, Van Bitt, and Wayne Tiger is the only player who has been suspended. The coach also asked the players to change positions in the game, which also showed that the thickness of Bayern's bench was seriously insufficient, and Bayern's schedule in April was quite difficult. In this case, in the event of injury or suspension, the fighting capacity of this Bundesliga giant will be greatly reduced. In contrast, Real Madrid's lineup will impress Bayern fans.
Since Real Madrid beat the Greeks 3-0 away in the first leg, and this team from Cyprus is too weak, there is almost no suspense for Real Madrid to become Bayern's opponent in the semi-final. For Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho, Bayern is also his favorite opponent. The team he coached before has fond memories of facing Bayern in the Champions League: in the 2004-05 season, Mourinho's Chelsea met Bayern in the 1/4 final. In the 2009- 10 season, Mourinho, who coached Inter Milan, met Bayern in the final. This time, his team won 2-0 and successfully reached the top of Europe. As for Bayern, Heynckes once had the experience of coaching Real Madrid, and Robben also played for the La Liga giants. However, times have changed and Real Madrid has changed a lot every year. I'm afraid these two people won't know Real Madrid better than others.
Bayern and Real Madrid have known each other for a long time. They have sent their fans to the top many times. The last time the two teams played against each other was in the Champions League 1/8 final in 2006-07, when Real Madrid beat Bayern 3-2 in the first leg at the Bernabeu Stadium, while Bayern, who returned to Allianz Stadium, scored the fastest goal in the Champions League by Ma Kai and scored an away goal 2-/KLOC-0. 1 1 years ago, when Bayern reached the top of Europe, it also met Real Madrid in the semi-final. As a result, Bayern beat their opponents at home and away with the excellent performances of stars such as Kahn and Elber. However, the disadvantage for Bayern is that they will play at home in the next semi-final and then away. Under this schedule, Bayern eliminated its opponents only once. In the 87-88, 0 1-02, 03-04 seasons, Real Madrid had the last laugh, and in the 86-87 season, Bayern eliminated its opponents and advanced. But in Bayern's favor, in Munich, Real Madrid won only one draw in the 2003-04 season and lost all other games. Moreover, in 2009- 10 Bayern eliminated Florence, Manchester United and Lyon, which was the first schedule at home and the second away game. It can be said that these players in Bayern are quite comfortable with this arrangement. This season, Bayern's goal is to reach the Champions League final at Allianz Stadium and then win the cup at home. Now Real Madrid has become the last obstacle for Bayern to advance to the final, and Bayern must defeat this level of opponents if it wants to become the king of Europe.
