Chapter 99 Bayern! Counterattack!
"Attack at the start!! Bellerin's lob!!! A brilliant and resolute attack, Arsenal launched a surprising attack right after the start!! "
Andy Gray jumped up and shouted loudly.
He thought the two sides would test each other for a while, but Arsenal had no intention of testing at all, and started to pass the knife in the first attack.
It was obvious that they were not going to play tricks with you, but to fight head-on.
I have to say that this attack was really inspiring.
Even the two commentators Ferguson and Wenger stood up at some point, and Wenger's eyes flickered.
"A brilliant attack!! Arsenal played a great attack this time! This attack gave them the initiative at the start!"
Ferguson couldn't help but admire.
Don't underestimate this attack. After Arsenal pressed forward, the overall tactics developed in the form of suppression.
This also gave Arsenal more offensive and even shooting opportunities.
And in terms of entering the game state, Arsenal was faster.
Wenger also said; "When Kai passed the ball to Aubameyang, Bellerin was already standing in the center circle. We should have been curious about why he was standing there, but it turned out that this was designed before the game. Mourinho wanted to take the initiative! Look at the moment Aubameyang received the ball, Bellerin had already started, and he was even faster than the Bayern Munich players!"
In the wide-lens replay, Bellerin started the moment Aubameyang received the ball.
At this time, everyone's attention was on Aubameyang. It was not until Bellerin made a forward run that the Bayern players saw Bellerin's figure and discovered the danger.
If that cross was headed by Giroud, then Bayern would be in danger.
Fortunately, Boateng's defensive skills were profound and he successfully restricted Giroud.
But the rhythm of the game was also taken away by Arsenal.
Everyone looked at the big screen expectantly, and Arsenal sent a sideline ball on the court.
Lekai moved left and right, shook off the defensive players, and stepped forward to receive the ball.
Robertson threw the ball to Lekai, which was a parabolic half-air ball with a slow speed.
Lekai also paused for a moment, and after the opponent's defensive player followed up, he retreated a little, successfully hit J Luo, and then met the falling ball with the back of his foot.
The ball immediately passed between two Bayern players, and Robertson moved forward at the right time and passed the ball again.
"Here it comes again!!!"
The ball flew to the middle again, and the landing point was far back. Neuer could not take the initiative to attack, so he could only prepare to save it.
Giroud and Boateng were entangled again, but this time, Giroud suddenly hit Boateng away with a collision and completed the jump.
He threw the ball towards the goal with a head shake.
Although it was full of force, it was too straight.
Neuer was in a hurry and could only use his arms to resist. The ball hit his arm and flew out of the penalty area.
The Bayern players turned their heads in a hurry.
They saw the ball land and bounce.
The next second, a figure wearing Arsenal's away light blue jersey appeared in front of the ball.
"Robertson made a cross, the quality of this cross is very good, God! Giroud shook off Boateng and jumped to head the ball!! Neuer!! Wonderful save, the ball flew out of the penalty area, can anyone catch up? Someone!! Someone!! Kai!!! Long shot!!! This ball"
Andy Gray supported the table with both hands and stared at the big screen with wide eyes.
The other three people on the commentary desk also dared not breathe.
Wenger clenched his fists, and his toes were curled up nervously.
They looked at the trajectory of the ball forming an arc, and flew rapidly towards the goal.
Ding!!!
The ball hit the goalpost and flew out of the bottom line!
"Ah!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn goalpost!!!!"
Andy Gray hugged his head, with a look of regret on his face.
The other three also showed regretful expressions.
Ferguson even stroked his chest and shook his head, saying, "This game is so thrilling!"
Andy Gray said excitedly, "In just two minutes after the start, Arsenal completed three attacks and two shots!"
"Two of the shots hit the goal frame. Arsenal's performance on the road was too wonderful. They played too strongly!"
That's right!
Arsenal played too strongly.
It was so strong that the Bayern fans in the Allianz Arena were so nervous that they couldn't speak.
In the first two minutes, Bayern fans held their breath and were so nervous.
Seeing that Luka's long shot hit the goal post, they breathed a long sigh of relief and fell heavily on the chair, with a feeling of surviving a disaster in their hearts.
In the Sky Sports commentary station, Andy Gray, after calming down, exclaimed: "After the opening, Arsenal used the full-backs to launch three waves of threatening attacks!"

"Bayern Munich put all their attention on the striker, they ignored the Arsenal full-backs' overlapping attacks!"
Wenger also nodded in approval; "Mourinho's full-back forward tactics are well developed, Bellerin's speed and Robertson's crosses are well developed by him."
"These two players have different styles and can execute offensive tactics that they don't understand, which also makes Bayern Munich's defense line more and more confused!"
"And we must know that Arsenal's offensive routines are more than these. The center's retreat, the advancement of the central axis, the free kick tactics, and the corner kick tactics have not been shown yet. Now Arsenal has taken the initiative. Bayern will have a hard time in the future!"
At this time, everyone's face was full of smiles.
Obviously, Arsenal played much better than they expected.
In the stadium, Bayern players also looked solemn.
Lai Wan retreated to find his teammates.
"Pass the ball to me, pass it any way, I will score!"
Lai Wan had this confidence at this time.
During this period of time, Lai Wan just entered the stage of "getting older and more demonic", and the game state was more explosive than before.
After hearing Lai Wan's words, Bayern also changed the idea of the game.
They were ready to pass the ball to Lai Wan for processing.
Of course, the premise is that Le Kai is not there.
They must find the opportunity of Le Kai in the frontcourt and immediately invest in the counterattack.
Fortunately, Arsenal is in an offensive state, and Lukay will often appear in their half.
This is dangerous, but it also represents an opportunity.
Hold on! Then counterattack!
This is the only way for Bayern Munich to regain the initiative.
In the next ten minutes, Arsenal began to bombard Bayern Munich while taking the initiative.
The faces of Bayern fans were a little pale.
They knew that Arsenal was strong, but they didn't expect it to be so outrageous.
They were omnipotent in the Bundesliga, but they were unilaterally suppressed by Arsenal and played extremely passively.
Of course, there was a problem of being robbed of rhythm at the beginning, but more of it was Arsenal's design for the opening and the subsequent tactical ability to push you around the advantage.
All these are telling Bayern Munich how terrible Arsenal is.
On the sidelines, Bayern Munich's head coach Heynckes pursed his lips tightly.
The old coach was also extremely uneasy, but he was not panicked.
He knew very well that Bayern only needed one chance.
One chance is enough!
On the other side, Mourinho loudly encouraged Arsenal's players to continue attacking and put more pressure on them.
Although Mourinho is a defensive player, if he doesn't attack when he has the advantage and rhythm, he is a fool!
Arsenal's waves of attacks continue to bombard Bayern Munich's goal.
Bayern is also struggling to maintain its defense.
They are also waiting for an opportunity.
A chance to counterattack.
Suddenly, Giroud flicked the ball horizontally to create a gap and chose to shoot.
The ball was suffocated in Neuer's arms, and Neuer held the ball steadily.
He felt the blood surging in his chest, but Neuer endured the dull pain and roared loudly: "Counterattack!!!"
Immediately, Neuer took two steps forward and kicked the ball high.
The ball flew to Muller on the wing.
Muller ran wildly, and Arsenal could not retreat immediately at this time.
Muller rushed to catch up with the ball. Before receiving the ball, he ran in an arc and passed the ball directly to the falling ball.
This was a horizontal ball cross, and Muller's pass was just right.
Lai Wan and Hummels, who were running desperately, braked urgently. Lai Wan made a direct shot at the ball, tricking Hummels to fall to the ground to block it immediately.
At this time, Hummels saw Lai Wan's right foot swinging in the air, and the ball rolled from behind his left foot. Lai Wan used his left foot as the axis, turned around and chased the ball. After completing the adjustment, he shot with his left foot! !
This shot was extremely tricky, flying in an arc towards the dead corner.
The ball had a strong inward rotation.
After hitting the goal post, it bounced into the net.
In the 19th minute, Bayern seized their opportunity to counterattack and scored a goal with only one counterattack.
