"Liverpool first made a defensive counterattack and were not in a hurry to counterattack. The offense and defense on the field were clearly defined. Bayern was mainly offensive and Liverpool was mainly defensive."
The 17th minute of the game!
"Thiago controls the middle, and Vidal tries to block Lin Chen."
"Thiago passes the ball to the left side and gives it to Ribery!"
Liverpool's defense wanted to be offside, but Gomez accidentally fell behind!
Ribery made a comeback and had a one-on-one opportunity!
Gomez chased back desperately, trying to steal the ball, but he couldn't do it!
Seeing that Ribery was about to enter the penalty area, Gomez made a ruthless move and hit Ribery's running heel with his calf from behind with a seemingly concealed move, causing Ribery to lose balance and fall to the ground in an instant!
Gomez then pretended to be innocent and raised his hands to indicate that he had not committed a foul.
But this did not fool the linesman who had been following on the left side, and he immediately waved his flag to signal the referee that it was a foul.
Lin Chen held his head in his hands, he knew what this foul meant.
"Foul! Joe Gomez blocked Ribery's one-on-one shot!"
"Gomez is too young. His delay caused Liverpool's defense to fail to create offside, giving Ribery a chance to score alone."
Liverpool players surrounded the referee, trying to change the result through pressure.
But the referee still resolutely pulled out the red card and sent Joe Gomez off!
"Okay, the hard truth."
"Joe Gomez got the red card, he was sent off."
"He can go take a shower first and his teammates won't pick up the soap."
"Liverpool will then have to play 10 against 11 on the field and they will be one man down."
Joe Gomez was frustrated and Klopp made a substitution.
He originally wanted Gomez, who was better at defense, to stop Ribery, but he didn't expect that the young Gomez paid the price in the Champions League!
Arnold came on as a substitute for Mane. Klopp had no choice but to do this as defenders are the most important.
"Liverpool changed their formation to 432, but Klopp still didn't give up the chance to counterattack."
"Thiago took the free kick from a good position and not far away."
"This midfield maestro has a great free-kick ability."
All eyes were on him. Thiago took a run-up, then raised his foot to take the penalty kick, which hit the upper right corner of the goal!
Mignolet stood there in a daze!
The ball was moving fast and falling quickly, and he had no time to make a save!
With the crisp sound of the ball going into the net, Thiago rushed to the sidelines and slid on his knees in celebration!
The Allianz Arena is on fire and Bayern is celebrating with excitement!
"It was cruel for Liverpool, they paid the price of a red card for preventing Ribery from scoring.
"But Thiago still scored the goal, Bayern Munich led 1:0 and had one more player than Liverpool!"
The situation happened too quickly, and it was completely beyond Liverpool's expectations.
But Klopp still did not give up counterattacking. He understood that only by having the ability to counterattack could he stop Bayern Munich's attack to a certain extent.
But Liverpool, playing with one man less, struggled on the field.
He Wei explained to the fans in the live broadcast room.
"Football is a sport for 11 people because everyone has to play an important role in the area they are responsible for."
“Now that Joe Gomez has gone off and Mane has been replaced by Arnold, it means Liverpool will not be able to control the situation on their right side.”
"The left-back of Bayern Munich has more space to attack, that is Alaba."
He Wei is right, Alaba is doing this.
His frequent sprints and pressure turned himself into an offensive defender. Alaba also had very good ball control skills. He controlled the ball in the midfield and helped Bayern gain a numerical advantage in the midfield.
Bayern's four-man midfield passed the ball quickly to resolve Liverpool's three-man press.
The 26th minute of the game!
"Bayern Munich's attack, Lin Chen went up alone, Henderson and Emre Can fell back to protect him."
Only Lin Chen went up alone. Henderson and Emre Can did not dare to go too forward to avoid being hit from behind.
Lin Chen pressed Javi Martinez, who immediately passed the ball to Thiago.
Thiago dribbled the ball to the left and found Alaba, who made a straight pass!
Ribery made another forward run on the left, but fortunately Arnold managed to keep up the pace and forced himself to intercept the ball.
But Lewandowski's subsequent pressing almost caused Arnold to make a mistake!
England's young full-back was forced to clear the ball with a big kick, and Liverpool played in a very embarrassing way!
"Liverpool are completely under pressure. The situation on the field gives me the feeling that they may concede a goal to Bayern at any time. That's it."
As He Wei was speaking, there was an opportunity for a sideline ball and Alaba threw the ball towards the middle with a powerful hand.
Lewandowski retreated, headed the ball and found Thiago at the top of the penalty area!
The midfield master unloaded the ball steadily and stopped it two steps to the left of his body!
Then he drew his bow and arrow and raised his foot to shoot!
Emre Can runs sideways!
He wanted to intercept, but the slippery grass made his feet slip!
The interception turned into a tackle!
"what!!!"
As Thiago screamed, Lin Chen stood there in a daze. Because he was the closest, he could clearly see Emre Can kicking Thiago's ankle hard.
The slippery grass caused Emre Can to make a passive mistake!
The referee took out another red card without a doubt!
Although Emre Can tried his best to explain, he couldn't escape!
He Wei's voice revealed deep concern, just like the emotions of all Liverpool fans at the moment.
"Another Liverpool player was sent off!"
"Emre Can was sent off, Liverpool will face Bayern Munich with nine players in the remaining 70 minutes or so!"
"I don't know how this happened, but this is football!"
"Liverpool have bad luck!"
"Oh my god, how are they going to get through the next 70 minutes?"
Lin Chen turned his head to look at Klopp, but Klopp did not make any substitutions.
Kravitz next to him was holding a tactical board, looking a little confused.
"Boss..."
Klopp patted Kravitz on the shoulder, chose to accept the result, and started shouting at the players on the field!
"4-2-1!"
"Deploy defense with Lin as the center!"
"Be good at defense!"
Klopp pulled Lin Chen to his side and spoke.
"The time is now, Lin!"
"Kravitz and I have always believed that you have the courage to stop anything, but now is the time!"
"Explode completely!"
"we need you!"
