Chapter 532 Bundesliga opponents, you are in trouble!

Many fans actually have serious misunderstandings about the Bundesliga, thinking that the Bundesliga is Bayern's only show.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with this. Bayern is indeed the only team in the Bundesliga, but it does not mean that other teams in the Bundesliga are not competitive. On the contrary, as long as Bayern relaxes a little, they will be immediately defeated by other teams in the Bundesliga.

The Bundesliga's competition system gives them a natural advantage that other leagues do not have when they compete in the Champions League.

If you carefully compare the competition systems of the four major European leagues, it is not difficult to find that the start time of the Bundesliga and the Premier League is the earliest, and the war was ignited on August [-], while La Liga and Serie A will not be until the end of August.

However, looking at the time of the final match, the Premier League ends the earliest, on May [-]. The Bundesliga, Serie A and La Liga are all a week later than the Premier League, around May [-] and [-].

Then the interesting thing comes. As we all know, the Bundesliga has only 34 teams and only [-] rounds.

In other words, a Bundesliga season is longer than the Premier League, Serie A, and La Liga in terms of time span, but they have fewer games, four games less, so the pressure of the game is naturally lighter, and the burden on the players is also lighter.

In addition, the Bundesliga has a very obvious advantage, which is the super long winter break.

From the map, Germany’s north-south span is quite large. It borders Denmark and other Nordic countries on the north. It is snowy in the severe winter and it is difficult to play football games. Therefore, the Bundesliga often has a winter break of about one and a half months at the end of December and January.

Of course, the Bundesliga teams will still adopt training camps and warm-up matches during this period, but the players do not have too much competition pressure. For the second half, they will be more prepared and in better condition.

And this is still very advantageous for the Bundesliga team to compete in the Champions League.

Especially for the Premier League, when the Bundesliga has a long winter break, the Premier League has ushered in the most intensive Christmas devil schedule throughout the season. Under the ebb and flow, the Premier League is indeed at a disadvantage in terms of schedule.

It can be said that the Bundesliga has a unique advantage in terms of schedule and competition system.

…………

In the new season, Bayern's first game is the first round of the German Cup.

The opponent is Burghausen on the border between Germany and Austria.

This is a fourth-tier league team, although it is an away game, but Bayern did not take them seriously.

Heynckes refrigerated players such as Sudong, Mascherano, Modric, Pepe, Marcelo and Robben, allowing them to stay in Munich and focus on preparing for the weekend's first round of the Bundesliga against newly promoted Rostock.

Franck Ribery, Klose, Schweinsteiger and other players all went away to challenge Burghausen.

Logically speaking, this should be a sure-fire match, and the strength gap between the two sides is too great.

But no one thought that in the away game, Bayern encountered a tenacious sniper from Burghausen.

After the score was zero to zero in the first half, Burghausen used a free kick in the second half to break through Bayern's goal. Demichelis did not keep a good eye on the opponent when defending, resulting in a conceded goal.

Bayern launched a fierce attack, but it was not until the end of the game that Ribéry used a corner kick to assist Miroslav Klose with a header to equalize the score.

After that, the two sides entered overtime, and then entered the penalty shootout.

In the first five rounds of penalty shoot-outs, the two sides fought [-]-[-], and Demichelis also missed a penalty kick. Fortunately, Kahn then saved two penalty kicks in a row, saving Bayern Munich and allowing the Bundesliga team to rely on penalties to beat their opponents in a thrilling away game.

In the 120 minutes of the whole game, Bayern left 52 shots in the away game and only scored one goal.

……

After the German Cup, the entire German football world was in an uproar.

Bayern, which had just spent a huge amount of money in the summer transfer market to restructure, almost made its debut in the new season. It stumbled on a fourth-tier league team, which shocked the German media and fans.

The biggest upset in the first round of the German Cup was Leverkusen's [-]-[-] away loss to St. Pauli, but the problem is that St. Pauli is at least a newly promoted Bundesliga, and its strength is still good.

But Bayern's opponent Burghausen is a fourth-tier team. Even if Bayern played with half the main force, they almost capsized in the gutter, is it justified?

When Heynckes was interviewed by the media, he was not satisfied with the team's debut. He believed that the team created enough scoring opportunities, but the efficiency was still poor.

"This may be related to the fact that the players have just gone through summer training and have not yet fully found the state of the game."

But such rhetoric is unsatisfactory.

Bild wrote an article pointing out that the most serious problem of Bayern's debut was that they scored more than [-] shots and only scored one goal.

"If Bayern wants to start the new season with such a performance, I am afraid that the Bundesliga competitors will be very happy."

Bayern chairman Franz Beckenbauer also pointed out in his column that the Bayern players were too big, their mentality was too relaxed, and they did not pay enough attention to their opponents. This caused Bayern's debut to almost screw up.

The football emperor reminded Bayern players, "The opponents in the Bundesliga will be infinitely stronger than Burghausen!"

…………

…………

On the afternoon of August [-]th, Allianz Arena in Munich.

Except for the motorized seats that must be reserved, the entire Allianz Arena is full of seats.

Seventy thousand Bayern fans gathered at the Allianz Arena to cheer for the team's first league game of the new season.

But everyone is also full of anxiety, especially three days ago, when the team played an away game against a fourth-tier league team, it was so strenuous, which made Bayern fans feel uneasy.

Today, playing Rostock, will it be the same?

The live broadcast was broadcasting the starting lineups of the two teams, and the players of the two teams entered the stadium one after another.

Bayern's goalkeeper is captain Kahn, and the defense is Lahm, Lucio, Pepe and Marcelo. Sagnol has not recovered from a serious injury, Lahm was adjusted to the right, and Brazilian teenager Marcelo started on the left.

This player is strong in offense and weak in defense, and defense is a big problem. Fortunately, Schweinsteiger and Mascherano sit behind the midfield.

Another midfielder is Modric.

Although Bayern adopts a four-two-three formation, in fact, the players' positions in the game are irregular.

The front trident, Franck Ribery, Su Dong and Robben, started at the same time.

Especially when Su Dong entered the field, [-] Bayern fans shouted his name in unison, showing their support for Su Dong.

"Last season, Su Dong alone won three Golden Boots in La Liga, Bundesliga and the Champions League. He is also the winner of the European Golden Boot, showing his No.1 demeanor in world football."

"We hope that in the new season, he can continue his outstanding performance last season, continue to attack the city for Bayern, and continue to bring us more exciting goals."

Accompanied by the voice of the live broadcast commentator, the Bayern fans at the scene shouted Su Dong's name in unison.

There was longing in their cries.

But this time, Su Dong didn't make them wait too long.

……

After the start of the game, Bayern firmly controlled the situation on the field and the possession of the ball, and frequently exerted force on the offensive end.

Ribery received a lot of criticism after playing Burghausen in the last game. Although he assisted Klose to score, he also wasted a lot of opportunities.

In that game, almost every Bayern player was criticized by the media and fans, including Klose.

In this game, Ribery was very active from the beginning, creating threats again and again, but he was a little short of scoring.

Until No. 14 minutes, after receiving a pass from Marcelo, Ribery dribbled the ball diagonally into the left rib of the penalty area, and quickly crossed to the center.

Su Dong rushed over, squeezed away the central defender defending him with his body, took the first step to shoot, and sent the ball into the lower right corner of the goal.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!"

"Bayern's first league goal of the new season!"

"Only 4 minutes into the game, a goal from Su Dong."

"This is an opportunity created by Ribery dribbling the ball to the left side of the penalty area and crossing to the center. Su Dong decisively seized the opportunity and calmly stabbed the goal, opening the scoring for Bayern."

"One to zero!"

After Su Dong scored, he immediately rushed to the sidelines to celebrate.

Ribery and other teammates also followed closely to celebrate his goal for Su Dong.

This is also Bayern's first league goal of the new season.

……

After Su Dong opened the scoring for the first time, Bayern began to get better and better, and they played more and more smoothly.

Franck Ribery is still very active, so that Rostock's defensive center of gravity is tilted towards the right side of its own side, which is Bayern's left side, and the focus is to freeze Ribery.

But in this way, Robben also got a chance to kick, but was saved by the goalkeeper.

Both Marcelo and Schweinsteiger also stepped in to get kicking opportunities, but failed to form a goal.

Until the No.208 minute, Ribéry got the ball in the 30-meter area, the left rib area, and continued to dribble forward, attracting Rostock's defensive players, and sent a kick behind him.

Su Dong quickly slanted into the left side of the penalty area. On the left side of the front of the small penalty area, he caught up with Ribery's through ball. The whole person first made a fake move, followed by a low shot with his left foot. The ball passed under the crotch of the goalkeeper Wicht and rolled directly into the goal behind him.

Two to zero!
"Su Dong made another victory! Scored twice!"

Accompanied by the announcement of the Allianz Arena, all [-] Bayern fans rushed out of their seats frantically, shouting Su Dong's name hoarsely.

Su Dong also rushed to the sidelines again, first waved his fist excitedly at the fans, then turned around, and directly hugged Ribery who assisted him.

He believes that in the future, the defenders of the Bundesliga will find that they are really suffering in the face of Bayern's trident.

One-on-one, they can't defend, but if two or even three double-team, then other places will show their flaws.

Therefore, their only option is to shrink their defense and adopt an iron barrel formation.

But with such a high point as Su Dong's, even if he puts out the iron bucket formation, it may not be able to exert its effect.

So, they are in trouble!

When they met Bayern, they didn't know how to defend!
