Dear Gua

Chapter 346 The Silent Commander (Daily Transition)

"Goal!"

"Double!"

"Li Kang has once again triumphed in his duel with Boateng!"

"After changing direction, he continued to cut inside, finally unleashing a powerful shot into the far corner!"

"A dazzling display of skill!"

"A golden left foot!"

"A wonderful combination of explosiveness and coordination."

"A dribbling rhythm that's impossible to fault!"

"A perfect cut-inside goal!"

"Li Kang shines at the Allianz Arena!"

Duan Xuan was so excited that his voice trembled slightly, and he wished he could pluck a leg hair as a celebration!

Having been responsible for commentating on the Bundesliga for Ctv5 for many years, he was already a Bayern fan.

He had even been criticized by netizens on social media for his biased commentary in favor of Bayern.

But for some reason, he just wanted to see Li Kang shine at the Allianz Arena...

...

Li Kang took the initiative to hug Morata.

Before the goal.

It was the Arsenal striker's diagonal run that made Benatia hesitate, thereby reducing the pressure of cutting inside.

Sanchez, who provided the assist, also ran up quickly, jumped, and hung himself on Li Kang.

The Chilean star had already won two Copa América titles.

He had long been thirsty for the Champions League trophy, and even showed signs of delusion last season, laughing foolishly when behind and crying on the bench!

His stubborn psychological problems also disappeared without a trace with the victories on the Champions League stage.

Arsenal fans in the away stands were shouting themselves hoarse.

"Lee!"

"Lee!"

"Lee!"

In Arsenal's half, Čech was also clapping his gloves hard.

If it weren't for Li... the score on the big screen might have been reversed.

...

Boateng looked distressed and turned to apologize to Neuer, saying that he had interfered with the goalkeeper's vision when blocking the line.

Neuer shook his head.

There was nothing he could do.

Li was simply Bayern's nemesis, even more so than Frankfurt, Hoffenheim, or even Mönchengladbach.

If Arsenal's number 10 away jersey wasn't yellow, Müller almost would have celebrated along with them... it was too similar, the moment Li Kang changed direction and cut inside to score was exactly like Robben in the 12/13 season...

Robben sensed the confusion in his teammates' eyes and spread his hands helplessly.

Many people can cut inside.

But Li's running posture and rhythm after starting... were too similar to his own.

Why are there so many "Messi successors" in the world? Many excellent young lads are imitating Messi's posture of sprinting with his body bent...

...

In the live broadcast room.

The audience watched the goal replay on the big screen, savoring it endlessly.

-【I'll never get tired of watching it!】

-【Li Mönchengladbach, why is he so invincible whenever he meets Bayern?】

-【Highlight reel +1! My girlfriend who doesn't even watch football... remembers who Boateng is now!】

-【Boateng embarrassed himself because his defensive prediction ability is too strong. If Li Mingdeng (Li the Guiding Light) encountered a second-rate defender, he would have already passed him with the first feint. There's no need to continuously touch the ball to change rhythm and adjust his center of gravity...】

-【Sanchez passed the ball well, very decisively, knowing that Arsenal's passing and cutting is difficult to break through Bayern's defense, so he chose to break through and then make a wide-range transfer.】

-【Morata's run was also crucial. Before Li Kang cut inside, he suddenly retreated, and after Li Kang entered the penalty area, he made a reverse diagonal run, forcing Benatia to not dare to leave an open space and also interfering with Neuer's judgment!】

-【As long as there are no injuries, this Arsenal team may really go to the Millennium Stadium!】

...

On the sidelines.

Everyone on the Arsenal bench stood up excitedly, raising their fists.

Bould exclaimed excitedly: "Boss, we're two goals ahead, we can take off Cazorla and bring on that Mustafi kid! Five defenders... we still have Holding, and Gabriel is recovering well..."

Wenger patted his old partner on the shoulder and said, "They will all have a hard time supporting Li in attack..."

The bald assistant coach looked puzzled: Leading Bayern by two goals, and you still want to attack?

On the other side.

Ancelotti tried hard to control his expression.

His right eyebrow pressed down slightly.

Looking at the famous coaches of this historical period, he was also one of the slower ones to make on-the-spot adjustments.

Ancelotti's Bayern, with Müller who hadn't yet begun to evolve... was a double-edged sword.

"Let Martínez warm up!"

...

The game continued.

The Gunners, with their morale greatly boosted, launched a frenzied press.

Five against two in midfield.

Vidal was running himself ragged.

Even if the aging Alonso had strong pressure resistance, it was difficult for him to find a suitable passing environment.

With great difficulty, he passed the ball to Alaba or Coman.

But Schweinsteiger repeatedly disrupted Bayern's attacking rhythm.

In the VIP box.

The German legends couldn't sit still and gestured wildly, "commanding" the players from afar:

"The attack is too simple, Li can guess what Alaba is going to do with his eyes closed!"

"We lack an organizer in the frontcourt, even if Müller pulls apart Arsenal's defense... it can't be converted into a threatening attack."

"Why is Kimmich retreating to the defensive midfielder position again?"

"Alonso was tackled by three people!"

"Oh, my god! Is this still Arsenal?"

...

Ancelotti's Bayern, after taking off Thiago, was like a sword hilt without a blade.

In the 70th minute of the game.

Li Kang completed a steal and quickly dribbled the ball forward.

Sanchez and Walcott widened the attack.

Morata's diagonal run also provided a narrow attacking depth.

"Here it comes!"

"The running distance is very wide, Bayern's high defensive line doesn't have a numerical advantage!"

"They're attacking the right flank again!"

"Fierce Arsenal!"

"The distance is starting to shrink!"

"Schweinsteiger is also rushing up!"

"What a beautiful and sexy advance!"

...

The speed of the football rolling on the grass was very fast.

Bayern fans were frightened.

The little brother who was always beaten up by them suddenly went crazy and beat them black and blue?

The distance in the middle of the advance suddenly contracted.

One-two pass.

Bypassing the young Kimmich!

Li Kang chipped a pass!

Morata stopped the ball with his heel!

Schweinsteiger rushed forward to receive the ball and ran wildly!

Imaginative passing coordination made Benatia and Boateng unable to cope!

How to defend?

Too crazy.

The 200 million commander led the Gunners to wreak havoc at the Allianz Arena!

...

Ancelotti cursed Barcelona a hundred times in his heart!

If this kid Li hadn't left Barcelona, he might not have had so much freedom and ball possession!

But he was sent to Arsenal!

His opponent was a fusion of Cruyff and his passing philosophy!

...

Vidal used all his strength to run back to defend.

Too tired.

Ancelotti's Bayern in a 4-4-2 formation, if it lacks a midfielder of Thiago's style, it is simply a disaster for the other two holding midfielders.

It's not about how strong Thiago is.

But Ancelotti's Bayern really needs a player of this style.

The pressure in the midfield is now all on Alonso and Vidal.

Once they lose the ball.

They face Arsenal's torrential counter-attack!

Running and running, Vidal despaired: Li Kang once again attacked Bayern's penalty area!

...

"Li Kang sends a diagonal pass on the right! The timing of the pass is perfect!"

"Morata runs into space!"

"No adjustment!"

"Shoots directly!"

"This ball is in!"

Bayern fans were tense!

Clang!

Accompanied by a crisp sound.

Morata's right foot unleashed a powerful shot!

Neuer was still able to accurately predict the direction!

But the orange gloves failed to touch the ball!

Clang!

The football hit the post heavily, did not fly out of the baseline, but bounced to the front line on the left side of the penalty area!

Morata rubbed his hair in annoyance.

"It didn't go in?"

"A good chance to kill the game!"

"Too bad!"

"Bayern's danger has not been resolved!"

"Iron Piglet!"

Duan Xuan couldn't even say Schweinsteiger's full name for a moment...

...

At the landing point.

Schweinsteiger, without any interference, raised his right leg high!

He became a member of Bayern's first team at the age of 18.

His sweat sprinkled on every part of the Allianz Arena's grass.

From a young boy, he became a hero of Bayern Munich.

Returning to his homeland.

But he stood on the opposite side of the Bundesliga giant.

Amidst bursts of exclamations.

The football, like a cannonball out of the barrel, blasted open Bayern Munich's goal!

Neuer, who fell to the ground, didn't have time to get up again to save...

0:3!

"It's in again!"

"Schweinsteiger slays his former master!"

"This may be the last time in his career that he sets foot on the Allianz Arena as a player!"

"The Iron Piglet's volley kills the suspense of the game!"

"There's no problem!"

"Arsenal locked in the victory!"

"Three valuable away goals mean that the Gunners have one foot in the Champions League semi-finals!"

Schweinsteiger didn't celebrate, but raised his hands high.

His eyes were red.

The Allianz Arena was filled with applause.

Over time, the memories of the Iron Piglet and Bayern will always be cherished in the hearts of fans.

...

Morata nudged the somewhat moved Sanchez with his elbow and said, "Don't be so sentimental, today is not a farewell match, Bastian is much more successful than us! The girlfriends he's dated are all great beauties, he's won the World Cup, the Champions League... so many championship trophies."

Li Kang smiled.

He didn't know which stadium he would hold his farewell match in before he retired...

He didn't continue to think about it.

The second season of his career wasn't over yet, how could he think about things more than ten years later.

...

In the live broadcast room.

-【Piglet scored! It's a volley again! Huh? Why is he standing on the opposite side?】

-【Why are the midfielders of Arsenal more accurate than the forwards?】

-【Li Mingdeng's improvement to the team as a whole is too strong, Arsenal's shotguns have been replaced with cannons, bombing the Bundesliga giant!】

-【Silent midfield leader.】

-【Meek and cautious in the league, aggressive in the Champions League! Our Gunners are invincible!】

-【If Alonso had the state he had at Liverpool and Real Madrid, Bayern wouldn't be so miserable, and Lahm isn't there either.】

-【Ancelotti needs to make adjustments, with this intensity of competition, Long Ge's (Dragon Bro's) physical strength will have problems sooner or later!】

...

Arsenal's coaching staff.

Wenger and Bould and others were immersed in joy.

"Boss, is this a miracle?"

"No, it's not a miracle! It's Li!"

On the other side.

Ancelotti ignored the Bayern fans' anger.

He didn't regret rejecting Schweinsteiger's return to Bayern in the summer and winter transfer windows.

Bayern's midfielders were overcrowded.

For example, Martínez, who is now 29 years old.

"Listen, stop Arsenal's advance!"

"Solve the defensive problems of Alaba and Kimmich."

Martínez pulled up his shorts and stood on the center circle line.

As Li Kang's teammate in the national team, he was very happy.

As an opponent...

....

"Ancelotti has made a second substitution!"

"Martínez replaces Alonso!"

"It should be a like-for-like substitution."

"The Allianz Arena resounded with applause again, this may be the last time Alonso represents Bayern in the Champions League at the Allianz Arena!"

"Bayern's tactical adjustments tend to not want to concede any more goals."

"After Alonso leaves the field, the pressure of passing and advancing will be given to central defender Boateng, but Martínez can switch to defensive form at any time, his retreat can also allow Kimmich and Alaba to return to their familiar side-inward playing style..."

"This also indicates that... the Bundesliga giant has temporarily surrendered to the Gunners."

"Without the midfield transition, the hope of scoring can only be pinned on set pieces!"

The game restarted in the center circle.

Lewandowski kicked off and passed back to Vidal.

The front and midfields of both sides overlapped again.

Without Alonso.

Bayern had no way to directly make long passes to the side... the football rolled slowly on the grass, they had to wait, they had to wait for the formation to advance to a certain depth before Boateng passed the ball.

Boateng can become a top central defender, not only for his contributions on the defensive end.

This little black egg's offensive awareness, vision, passing ability... and even dribbling is top-notch.

Unfortunately.

Arsenal, who put up a low defensive line, didn't fall for Bayern's long passes from the backcourt.

...

Bang!

The football left the right foot of the Bayern central defender and hung towards Arsenal's half.

Lewandowski leaped high in the thirty-meter area, preparing to head the ball to Müller, who had run into space.

Suddenly.

A big forehead took the lead and headed the ball out.

"Maguire!"

"His ability to compete for headers is too amazing, his contest with Lewandowski in this game will definitely make his value soar!"

"Very detailed! Headed to Li Kang!"

"Arsenal's counter-attack... no counter-attack, they can control the rhythm!"

Bayern players immediately ran back frantically!

But they found that Li Kang did not immediately launch a counter-attack...

...

It wasn't that Li Kang didn't want to counter-attack.

It had nothing to do with the big advantage of leading by three goals.

In God's perspective.

Martínez's appearance allowed Bayern's high defensive line to gain some thickness, his retreat also allowed Kimmich and Alaba to rotate from the wing to the defensive midfielder position.

But he didn't have Alonso's top-notch metronome function.

In short, Ancelotti's Bayern adjusted the attribute points, putting the attack power on the two attributes of defense and midfield control.

...

Time passed by.

The Allianz Arena still had 70,000 fans.

The noise was endless.

The scene gradually became dull.

From a passionate and exciting attack, it turned into a "health game."

Tactical game is tactical game.

Bayern's overall strength is always stronger than Arsenal's.

The individual strength of some opposing players is also the same.

In the 3rd minute of stoppage time.

Robben exploded.

He once again staged an epic cut-inside performance on the right!

Extreme change of direction!

Sudden stop and turn!

Dribbling into the penalty area!

Monreal chased closely.

The next moment.

Robben raised his hands!

The whole person fell into the penalty area!

"Robben's signature falling action! Unchanged for ten thousand years!"

"Penalty!"

"The referee pointed to the twelve-yard spot!"

"Let's look at the slow-motion replay... ah! It was indeed Monreal's outstretched foot that tripped Robben!"

...

Robben patted Lewandowski on the back of the head.

The two understood each other and gave the penalty opportunity to Müller.

Trailing by three goals, there was no mood to be humble.

Müller scored with one kick.

Breaking through Čech's goal.

Beep! Beep beep~

The referee looked at his watch and immediately blew the whistle to end the game.

According to FIFA rules, even if a goal is scored in the last second of stoppage time, the game must be restarted in the center circle before being stopped.

Theory is theory.

Since 2014, the Champions League referee will directly blow the whistle to stop the game when it exceeds the scope of stoppage time.

...

In the end.

Bayern Munich 1:3 Arsenal.
