Chapter 444 Rong's counterattack

"Rong--!" Marcel Lef pulled out his voice and screamed. The sound sounded like an air raid sirens, shouting heart-wrenchingly.

As a German commentator, he is very familiar with Glory. He knows very well what this situation means.

It means that Glory will transform into a sharp dagger and easily pierce into Bayern Munich's chest!

Rong Guang swept the football into the penalty area, and now only one Schweinsteiger and goalkeeper Neuer are left in front of him.

Out of his understanding of glory, Schweinsteiger quickly retreated instead of meeting him when he saw glory rushing over.

If he meets him, he will be left behind by Rongguang with an acceleration.

And now he can still continue to stand in front of glory.

Manchester City fans in the stands were cheering desperately, while Bayern Munich fans were cheering for their team.

But in fact, they knew in their hearts that the current situation was already very dangerous.

Who is the one who takes the ball now?

It's glory!

It is a glory they are so familiar with!

※※※

Schweinsteiger was nervous when he faced glory.

If you cannot successfully complete the defense, you may concede goals.

Should I stick it up or continue to retreat?

But Rongguang did not give him a chance to continue hesitating. Facing Schweinsteiger's frontal defense, Rongguang just used the outer instep of his right foot to slid the ball to the outside, and then accelerated!

It was that simple, he dribbled the ball into the penalty area.

Neuer also made a quick attack, intending to attack Rongguang with his teammates who were following Rongguang, forcing him to miss the football.

Rongguang faced the attacking goalkeeper Neuer, swung his right foot and made a shot.

Neuer quickly fell to the ground and reached out to jump at the football.

But Rongguang was just a fake move. He gently stroked the football outside his right foot, allowing the football to avoid Neuer's fingers.

Then he accelerated over Neuer and chased the football.

Schweinsteiger skipped Neuer from the inside and continued to chase after glory.

Outside Glory, Contento had not given up yet, and he tried to reach out to take over Glory's shoulders.

Glory caught up with football, but the shooting angle also became very small.

Rongguang did not directly swung his right foot and shot!

This time I really shot!

Just as Rong Guang shot, Schweinsteiger also flew out, intending to use his legs to block Rong Guang's shot.

But he was still late, so the football rolled over his toes, then rolled over the goal line and into the goal...

"The ball is in-!!" John Motson whistled to the sky.

※※※

"Rong! Rong! Rong—! The ball has entered! Alas!" Marcel Leif couldn't help sighing, and then fell silent.

The Bayern Munich fans in the stands of the Allianz Stadium were also silent.

This is a result they could have expected, but when this scene really happened, many people still find it difficult to accept it.

They were scored by Glory!

This is not the first time that Glory has sent football into Bayern Munich's goal.

But this time... it was the most painful thing for them.

※※※

The glory after the goal was not celebrated. Inertia made him rush to the billboard behind the bottom line before stopping after shooting.

When Allianz Stadium was originally designed and built, it was referenced to the English Stadium, so the audience seats of Allianz Stadium were very close to the stadium area, with only one billboard between them.

So now Rongguang has had a closest contact with Bayern Munich fans.

He lay on the billboard and stopped his body, while Bayern Munich fans were half a meter away from him.

When Rongguang raised his head, he saw a surprised face.

It was an elderly Bayern Munich fan with gray hair on his temples. He seemed to be unable to accept the reality that the team lost the ball. He stared blankly at the glory that was close at hand, his eyes were dull and he had no focus.

Rong Guang supported the billboard with both hands and then retreated his body.

Next, he turned around and ran back to the court.

And his teammates had already flocked to him and rushed towards him, instantly submerging him.

Manchester City players began their celebration in front of Bayern Munich fans.

Rongguang did not celebrate the goal. He was held by his teammates throughout the whole process. He did not raise his arms and waved it, nor did he hug his teammates.

He is in a passive state.

When his teammates finally finished their celebration, and as they ran back, Rongguang turned his head and glanced at the old fan.

He sat in his position, holding his head with both hands, and could only see the slightly oblique top of his head, and he could not see his expression.

But Rongguang knew that this old fan must be in pain.

The same person, four years ago, after scoring a goal, he must be cheering happily.

but……

Who can blame this?

Rong Guang withdrew his gaze and ran to Manchester City's half with his teammates.

He didn't run fast, but his pace was light.

His Manchester City teammates surrounded him, and their faces were filled with smiles.

This scene hurt many Bayern Munich fans in the stands.

Because once upon a time, they often saw such scenes. At that time, Glory wore Bayern Munich's jerseys, and Bayern Munich's players were surrounded by him.

And now everything has changed.

People have changed, so have jerseys.

※※※

Marcel Leif turned off the microphone in the commentary seat, then sighed and murmured to himself: "I knew, I knew, I knew..."

From the moment Glory left Bayern Munich, he knew that there would be such a day to wait at some point in the future.

Now, this day has come.

Then he turned on the microphone again and said: "Manchester City took the lead! This time, a textbook-like quick counterattack! Taking advantage of Bayern Munich's opportunity to serve a corner kick, Manchester City only used three people to complete the attack. The final goal was Rong, who was very familiar to Bayern Munich fans, and this was also his sixteenth goal in the Champions League this season!"

His tone had returned to normal, making people unable to hear that he was very melancholy before, and no one could feel that he had turned off the microphone.

"Now Rong is only one goal away from the 17 goals he has set in the Champions League single-season goal record. If he can continue to score, he will tie this record. I think Bayern Munich fans must be familiar with this record, because this record was created by Rong when he played for Bayern Munich. That season, Rong helped Bayern Munich win the Champions League championship, and he himself broke the 14-goal record in a single-season goal set by Artafini with 17... But now seeing Rong is about to write a new record in Manchester City, I don't know what Bayern Munich fans feel... No, what I want to ask the most now is what Mr. Hones, general manager of Bayern Munich, feels..."

The TV broadcast also quickly cut to the rostrum and gave Heness a close-up shot.

Hones in the camera looked calm and could not see any expression at all.

But his heart certainly wouldn't be as calm as he showed.

Because his team is behind!

※※※

Glory's goal helped Manchester City take the lead in the score, which was very bad news for Van Gaal, so after seeing Glory score, Van Gaal excitedly jumped from his seat, rushed to the sidelines, and roared inside.

He was very angry and even swearing.

Because he knew very well that if Manchester City led, Bayern Munich's defensive counterattack tactics would not be able to play.

The prerequisite for a defensive counterattack is that you cannot concede the ball, and it would be even better if you can still lead.

But as long as you fall behind in the score, this tactic will not be used.

When the score is behind, if you continue to defend and counterattack, you will hit Manchester City's thoughts.

If Bayern Munich does not attack or does not make much investment in offense, Manchester City will be happy to defend. Anyway, they are the leader now. Even if they are not scoring the goal after that, as long as they can keep the score until the end of the game, they will win.

But Bayern Munich is not good. They must attack, at least equalize the score, so that they can continue to maintain a balanced power.

However, Van Gaal did not lose his calmness and was not panicked by the ball being thrown away.

He was angry, but his anger did not burn his sanity.

If we attack now, it will only allow Manchester City to seize the opportunity to win another goal before the end of the first half...then the game will be over.

So after venting his anger, Van Gaal did not wave his hand and let the team push the attack forward with a big blow. Instead, he kept the existing tactics unchanged and defended and counterattacked. Before the end of the first half, he could not continue to concede the ball. The next step was to try to counterattack if he had the chance.

After the game started over, Manchester City did not intend to take advantage of the morale of the goal just now to launch a fierce attack on Bayern Munich's goal. Benitez also knew very well that if the opponent also made a defensive counterattack, then what they most hoped was to see Manchester City push forward the attack.

At this time, stability is better than everything.

Anyway, leading by one goal is also a good result.

As the head coach who insists on defensive counterattack tactics, Benitez has no resistance to "1:0ism". As long as he can win, he doesn't care whether the winning is good or not.

Over the years, with such an idea in mind, he has achieved great success at Manchester City.

Since Bayern Munich does not plan to attack, Manchester City is not in a hurry, and they are not playing the game at the previous pace.

The game scene returned to a dull state, and no one scored another goal until the end of the first half.
