Chapter 925
"Nicholas (Bendtner), run faster..."

"Theo (Walcott), follow the midfield and stay onside..."

"...Lee, Lee...don't be joking, be serious..."

Assistant coach Rice yelled loudly in the middle field. Today, Professor Wenger flew to Berlin, Germany to watch the German Cup final. Rice presided over the team's training work at home. The old Rice will retire next year. Won the league championship and reached the Champions League final, which made the old coach refreshed and trained with extra vigor.

After completing a set of confrontation training, Rice let the players rest, then went to the locker room to take a shower and eat a nutritious meal at noon.

With the rise of Arsenal in the Premier League and Europe, many fans and reporters came to the Kearney training base. After seeing the training of the Arsenal players, the reporters and the staff discussed interviewing the stars, and the fans They all waved and shouted for the stars they admired, asking for autographs and group photos.

Professor Wenger was not at home, and the players were like wild horses that had let go of the rein. Some went to be interviewed by reporters they knew well, and the Kearney training base became twice as lively as usual.

Rice has always treated the players very gently and did not forcefully stop them. He didn't invite the players to take a shower and eat nutritious meals until most of the fans and reporters were satisfied.

During training in the afternoon, more fans came, including many Chinese fans. These fans came after hearing the news from the fans who got autographs from the stars in the morning.

Because Wenger called in the evening and asked the players to watch the German Cup final between Bayern and Werder Bremen in the studio. The players had a lot of time after training. They tried their best to meet the requirements of the fans and reporters who came to watch. Let every fan return with satisfaction, and even big names like Li Huan and Cesc Fabregas accepted brief interviews with reporters.

In an interview, Li Huan told German reporters that he hoped that Bremen would beat Bayern Munich in the German Cup, because he hoped that German football would no longer be dominated by Bayern Munich, which would be detrimental to German football, but Li Huan believed that Bremen It will be difficult to beat Bayern in the final, and he predicts that Bayern will win the DFB-Pokal.

When a German reporter asked him which Bayern player he was most worried about, Li Huan did not mention Arjen Robben or Ribery, but instead named Muller. Li Huan believed that this young player was actually the most dangerous player in Bayern. Because his strength has surpassed Ribery and Robben, but Muller has a strong strength and has not been noticed by the outside world.

Li Huan finally said that although Arsenal lacks the experience of playing in the Champions League final, Arsenal will definitely win the Champions League this season. The defense has been very unstable, which is Bayern's fatal injury.

The afternoon was very long. After the training, the Arsenal stars went to the training place of the youth team to give advice to the young people, and then went out to the hotel for dinner, and then returned to the base to watch the live broadcast of the German Cup. In the final of a cup match, it is absolutely impossible for Bayern to hide their secrets. Arsenal can clearly see Bayern's strengths and weaknesses and the state of the game.

The game started at 15:20 local time on the 14th. Before that, Bayern Munich had won the championship 7 times and was crowned the domestic "double champion" 110 times. This season happened to be Munich's 6th anniversary celebration. Bayern's players won the championship The desire is very strong, the opening is like Bremen launched an onslaught.The defending champion Bremen is also a well-known technical team in the Bundesliga. Bremen has won the championship 1 times before. Last season's final defeated Leverkusen 0-4 with Ozil's goal. If Schaff can win the championship again, he will also create [-] times Leading the team to win the German Cup record.

Because of this, Wenger thinks this game is more worth watching.Facing Bayern's attack, they did not hesitate to attack back. The two sides launched a battle at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin.

Arsenal's players are not watching aimlessly. Every player is watching the players they are facing in order to be more prepared for the Champions League battle at the Bernabeu. This German Cup is a godsend opportunity for Arsenal .

What Li Huan watched was Bayern's left back and left midfielder. In this game, Bayern Budstuber replaced Contento as left back. Scarred Ribery still appeared in the position of left midfielder. Against Ribery, Li Huan didn't pay much attention to it. They played against each other many times and met in league and cup matches. Li Huan is very familiar with Ribery's technical moves. There is no need to observe now. Li Huan's main energy is on the opponent's left back. .

Badstube and Contento, who started this game, may both start in the Champions League final a week later. Li Huan dare not be careless, he should use his full strength to fight the lion, and he should use his full strength to fight the rabbit, and he will not underestimate any weak opponent , not afraid of any strong enemy, this is one of the reasons why Li Huan is invincible.

Who are Thomas Muller, Budstuber, Contento, Alaba?A year ago, 10 in 1 Bayern fans probably knew everything, and even fewer non-Bayern fans wanted to know.But after the arrival of Van Gaal, these young talents have ushered in the first spring of their lives. Muller has always been a sparring role in the first team under Klinsmann, and has never really played. The trend of deception has become a popular niche in Sebena Street. The inconspicuous Budd has always firmly occupied a starting position. This season, he has scored 51 goal and 1 assists in 2 appearances. He will also be the future of Bayern's defense Dinghaishenzhen, Kong Tentuo and Alaba also got the opportunity to exercise,

After the opening, the offense of the two sides was very fierce, and the two full-backs also frequently stepped forward to assist. However, in terms of offense, the two sides were evenly matched, and no one could do anything to the other, but the pace of the game was dragged faster. Mistakes also occur frequently. Whether you can seize the opportunity depends on the performance of the opponent's striker.

After the opening, the right flank of Robben and Lahm was more fierce, almost completely suppressing Bremen's left flank, while the combination of Badstuber and Ribery was relatively low-key and calm, and did not attack too much. Up front, Ribery is also more of an attacking midfielder and playmaker than a left winger.

Bayern got a penalty in the 35th minute!Thomas Muller picks a pass from the middle of the penalty area, Olic turns and picks the ball with his left foot while running, Mertesacker is sentenced to death for blocking the ball with his left hand, Robben shoots with his left foot and hits the lower right dead corner, 1-0!

This penalty hit Bremen's confidence. This Celtics team has always been known for its nerve knife. They once defeated Bayern with 5 goals in an away game, and also lost to the newly promoted team with 4 goals at home. Leme's army was in a turmoil, and finally failed to block Bayern's tide-like offensive.

In the 52nd minute, the score was expanded. Robben took a corner kick from the right. Mertesacker nodded and made a clearance and hit Van Buyten. Olić shot into the net with his left foot 5 meters in front of the goal, 2-0!

This somewhat own-goal goal completely broke down Bremen's morale, and Schaff replaced Bagfried with Marin, and made a massive counterattack, pressing Bremen's defense to open.In the 63rd minute, Van Bommel made a direct pass from the center line, but Naldo failed to break it. Franck Ribery turned offside and made a single shot. He pushed his right foot into the lower right corner on the penalty area line.
Ribery's attack aroused Li Huan's vigilance, and he began to imagine that if Ribery was not on the left side in the Champions League final, but cruising to the front of the penalty area, Li Huan would feel even more defensive pressure, because he could not be like man-to-man The defender followed Ribery all over the field, and Li Huan began to frown and think about the solution.

Bremen, who was behind by a large score, was impetuous, and Frings received a yellow card for a foul on Ribery.Borowski pulled Thomas Müller's jersey and also received a yellow card before he was replaced by Jensen.In the 77th minute, Frings shoveled Schweinsteiger's calf again, received another yellow card and was sent off!

Then the seasoned Van Gaal began to withdraw his troops. Timoschuk and Klose played successively, replacing Thomas Muller and Olic. One strengthened the defense, and the other continued to maintain the pressure on the opponent on the front line.

Bayern continued to expand the results in the 83rd minute. Lahm moved the ball to the midfield. When no one was pressing, Lahm passed the overhead ball. Schweinsteiger stopped the ball with his chest and went out to the right 24 meters from the front of the penalty area. A volley into the lower right corner, 4-0, Bayern sealed the victory and the German Cup trophy.

Bayern's easy victory gave Arsenal a big lesson. After the game, all the players were silent. Everyone was thinking, if Bayern Munich showed such strength in the Champions League final, could Arsenal stop them? ?
Assistant coaches Rice and Li Huan also fell into silence and shock. This Bayern team is much stronger than it was back then. From the poor start at the beginning of the season, the embarrassing results during several rounds during the Oktoberfest, the shameful abuse of the Champions League Unsatisfactory, doubts and voices of dismissal came overwhelming.Later, Bayern climbed out of the abyss and gradually formed a whole. In the game, no matter whether they lose or win, there are rules and regulations.Van Gaal's clever hands opened up Bayern's two lines of leadership, and Van Gaal's personnel mobilization re-integrated human resources and continued the original tactical system, and the combat effectiveness was greatly improved.

It can be said that the current Bayern is no longer Klinsmann and the Bayern Munich at the beginning of the season. They are a team that can compete with Arsenal for the Champions League. Arsenal must not ignore them. If it is not for this German Cup, Maybe Arsenal will suffer a lot.
