"Final! Final! Final!!" Rhine Neka's thunderous shouting only repeated this word.

Amid such cheers, Van Gaal's face looked very bad.

It won't work now to seek stability, and you must attack and strive for goals.

But if you press it out... you can't care about that much now!

Van Gaal called Schweinsteiger over and gave him a face-to-face opportunity: "You want to attack!"

Schweinsteiger nodded: "Attack!"

※※The game started again soon, but it was almost impossible for Bayern Munich to equalize the score in the first half. There was little time left. Hoffenheim immediately contracted his defense after taking the lead. As long as they held these five minutes, they could return to the locker room with a better result.

Bayern Munich attacked for a few minutes but failed to blow open Hoffenheim's goal. The referee blew the whistle to the end of the first half.

"The first half ended! Hoffenheim led Bayern Munich 1-0. This result is not too surprising. Hoffenheim has such ability at his home court."

"What kind of adjustments will the head coaches of both sides make during the intermission? Let's wait and see!"

※※※Van Gaal didn't know how to evaluate the team's performance in the first half. Half the time the team performed very well, especially Tymoshchuk, who almost completely frozen Chu Zhongtian in those ten minutes. But Chu Zhongtian still found a solution.

That goal was lost after this.

But the team did a good job, but the offensive results were not significant, and the opponent scored the goal.

No matter what the process is, as long as the ball is lost, it means that the process is wrong.

The key to solving the problem is offense, not defense.

He turned his eyes to Robben.

As soon as he returned to the locker room, the team doctor put a cold compress on Robben's injured ankle. Looking at the ice pack tied to his ankle, Van Gaal's brow frowned.

Robben's role in the first half was very small. Except for the few performances he had just started, he was basically unable to find him at other times. During the offense, he was closely defended by Chu Zhongtian and had almost no chance. Although he was closed, the injury affected his physical function after all. His speed was not as fast as before and his movements were not flexible enough. These greatly affected his performance.

Do you still want to keep him on the court?

Van Gaal was a little hesitant. Robben is the kind of player who can always surprise and hope as long as you let him on the court. At critical moments, his flash may save the entire team. But the problem is, you can't guarantee that he can flash at critical moments in every game... Besides, this is still an unhealthy Robben.

Who knows what will happen?

If you replace him... it's a pity that Bayern Munich lost a sharp knife on the side. Although this knife is a little blunt, it can still cut the enemy's throat.

He decided to ask the team doctor and then make an idea. If the team doctor told him that it was bad news, then replace him.

The team doctor was examining Robben, and Van Gaal was standing next to him.

Robben knew what the coach was going to do, so he spoke: "I have no problem, no problem at all."

Van Gaal ignored him and just waited for the team doctor to finish the examination.

The team doctor stood up and walked out with Van Gaal.

Robben kept looking at the backs of the two men until they disappeared behind the door.

Ribery came up and patted Robben on the shoulder: "How do you feel?"

Robben looked up at him: "I don't think it's a problem."

In fact, as long as his ankle does not move, it is indeed fine, but as long as he moves and exerts force, it hurts very much, and it hurts heartily. Robben knew that after the game was over, his ankle might have to undergo surgery again. He would not be able to make it to the final if he worked so hard - if Bayern Munich reached the final, then why is he doing this for?

Even if the team reaches the finals, he will not be able to play... No, this is not a problem. Because we are a team and I am a member of this team, I hope this team can stand at the top of Europe and must win the honors that they did not receive last season this season.

Ribery saw what Robben meant and said to Robben: "You run less in the second half, I'll be the main attack point here, you can find a chance to shoot."

The two were talking, and Van Gaal pushed the door open and followed the team doctor behind him.

Van Gaal walked straight to Robben and was about to speak, Robben took the lead and said, "I must appear, sir! There is nothing more important than this!"

Van Gaal really wanted to tell Robben that he would not have to play in the second half because the team doctor believed that if he continued to play, it would have a great impact on Robben's ankle injury. He might need to undergo a surgery, and this would be his first surgery? Who knows... "But your injury..."

"I know very well, but I still want to play." Robben refused to let go.

"You are a professional player, Alger, you are not just playing this game. You have never had a rest since last season. You need to rest, and your body can't bear it..." said the team doctor.

"And," Van Gaal took over the conversation. "This is the semi-final. You may not be able to catch up with the final after you finish this game. Is it necessary for you to do this?"

The conversation between several people attracted the attention of all Bayern players in the locker room. They stopped what they were doing and cast their eyes on.

"It's necessary, I'm a member of the team." Robben told the answer he had thought of before.

The answer is simple, but it leaves Van Gaal with nothing to say.

He stared at Robben for a while and found that there was no confusion or depression in the other party's eyes, so he turned around and nodded at the team doctor: "Let him play another fifteen minutes in the second half."

The team doctor shrugged his shoulders and shook his head: "I don't agree, but if he insists, I can't do anything."

Van Gaal came back and nodded at Robben: "Okay, you can stay on the court, but if I think it's necessary, I'll replace you."

Robben nodded: "No problem."

Then Van Gaal turned around and said to the onlookers: "Did everyone see it? Alger sacrificed himself for the team. So what reason does he have to not win it in this game!"

The experienced Van Gaal used the situation in front of him to motivate the players, boost their morale, and allow them to fight to the death in the second half.

Now looking at the players' eyes, Van Gaal knew that his words worked.

※※※In Hoffenheim's locker room, Rangnick is developing a second-half strategy for the teams. Leading a ball is not something to be happy for him, and he should be worried about reactions. Because this means that the opponent's counterattack in the second half will be more fierce, and the team must bear it, otherwise everything will be in vain.

"We are the same score as them now, and we only have an advantage by scoring away goals. But as long as they can score a goal in the second half, the situation will reverse. At that time, they will lead the overall score and we will fall behind. So they have to stop them from scoring, or score another goal before they score."

Rangnick looked at Chu Zhongtian again and said.

"I think the referee will reflect on his first half penalty yardstick during the half-time break. After all, this is our home court, and he cannot ignore this factor. Therefore, Tymoshchuk should be restrained in the second half. Make full use of our advantage of speed and impact Bayern Munich's defense!"

The magic weapon that Hoffenheim can rely on is fast. Although it is very simple, there are not many teams that can defeat them. The world's martial arts are invincible, but fast is not broken.

※※※ Guardiola was chatting with his assistants during the halftime break. This time he was not from Sinsheim alone. He brought his assistant coach to watch the game with him.

The two exchanged opinions during the intermission.

"I think Bayern Munich will definitely counterattack in the second half, and the strength is very strong. Hoffenheim may not be able to withstand it. They lack experience, especially the experience of playing football in this situation. Maybe they will take it for granted that they have won the victory. If that is true, Bayern Munich will definitely win." Assistant coach Bilanova analyzed.

His analysis made sense, and Guardiola nodded repeatedly when he heard it.

"It depends on what Hoffenheim will respond now." Biranova continued. "Chu is indeed the core of this team, and it can be said that he is the only person who can solve the problem. Bayern Munich has a hard time curbing him..." As he said that, Biranova frowned. He was thinking about how to curb this almost unsolvable player if he was replaced by his own team... Guardiola knew what he was worried about, so he took the sentence and said: "One method alone is impossible to defend him. At that time, we must make a complete set of tactics against him alone."

In fact, Guardiola heard about Chu Zhongtian's name a few years ago. At that time, some good media linked this person with their team. But that's all. He only knew the name and did not know what was behind it. Barcelona's midfielder was extremely strong, with Xavi and Iniesta in the organization, Messi in the goals, and Bootsques in the defense, and there was no place to accommodate the so-called all-round midfielder. It's funny to say that this game was the first time he saw Chu Zhongtian playing football with his own eyes... He did not deny Chu Zhongtian's strength, but football was not played by one person after all, and no matter how powerful a person was, it would not play a decisive role. Especially in games like the Champions League final, the entire team must be strong.

In Guardiola's view, Hoffenheim's overall strength is more than one level worse than Barcelona.

The key to defending Chu Zhongtian may not be Chu Zhongtian... Now this is just a vague idea, and I believe it will be formed after I go back.

The two were chatting, and the players from both sides appeared and the second half was about to begin.

The Rhine Neka Stadium was filled with huge cheers, welcoming the players. With 45 minutes left, everyone was a little impatient. Who can go to Wembley? Is Bayern Munich reaching the finals for two consecutive times to defend the glory of German football? Or is the dark horse Hoffenheim creating a "rural miracle" and becoming a new force in German football in European football?

"To be honest, I personally hope Hoffenheim advances. I'm a little tired of seeing Bayern Munich's face every time, haha!" The neutral commentator joked about Bayern Munich.

However, he expressed the thoughts in some people - they wanted to see Hoffenheim appear in the finals and see how many highlights this team that has brought surprises this season can give everyone. Maybe it will be a little different from Bayern Munich...※※At the time of the halftime, many TV stations analyzed that Robben might end up because he was injured and his performance in the first half was not good, so it was obviously restrained by Chu Zhongtian. But after the second half, everyone was surprised to find that Robben continued to stay on the court, and neither side made a substitution adjustment.

"Robben continues to stay on the court? It seems that Van Gaal still has high hopes for this Dutch fellow..."

"I doubt how useful Robben is to stay on the court... He did not perform at all in the forty-five minutes of the first half..."

No matter how everyone questioned or surprised, Robben stood on the court like that.

To be honest, Chu Zhongtian was also a little surprised when he saw Robben still on the court. He originally thought that after a mediocre first half, even if Robben disagreed, head coach Van Gaal would replace him. Unexpectedly, Van Gaal actually agreed to stay on the court... It seems that both Robben and Van Gaal were really fighting in this game.

※※Although Robben is still on the court, it is no different from the first half. He is not the core of the team's offense. Bayern Munich's main attack direction is still on Ribery's side.

Ribery was more active than in the first half. He kept sprinting on the side and moved to the middle to cooperate with his teammates. He took the ball and broke through or crossed, which was extremely threatening. Of course, he couldn't forget his shot.

Sana and Serner have to do their best to stop this flexible Frenchman.

Bayern Munich played well on this side, and at the same time, Hoffenheim focused all his attention on this side. Apart from Chu Zhongtian appeared on Robben, basically no one paid attention to it.

Robben often only appears in the penalty area to compete with Hoffenheim's defenders, which is obviously not what he is good at. His body cannot squeeze the strong defenders at all.

Such an arrangement is simply incomprehensible. Live TV also frequently aimed the camera at Van Gaal, and no one could see through why Van Gaal did this.

※※※Robben grits his teeth and frowns every time he runs. His ankle hurts so he can't take any effort to do the movements.

His running is no longer active. Even after his teammates pass the football over, the fans can't see him driving the ball to accelerate the long-distance raid. He passes the football quickly, and then jumps up like a frightened rabbit to avoid Chu Zhongtian or other Hoffenheim players' defensive moves that seem to kill him.

In the words of Chinese Internet hot words, Robben is now a "sauce" person on the court.

Even so, he still had to stay on the court because he was waiting for opportunities and his own opportunities. Ribery helped him attract his defensive attention. The only problem was that Chu Zhongtian, who kept staring at him in a gloomy manner and did not relax his vigilance.

In fact, the healthy Robben is confident of breaking through Chu Zhongtian's defense, so he relies on his own speed and quick reaction after a sudden stop and change direction. It is very simple but it is used.

He is accumulating strength, waiting for an opportunity, letting his ankles rest first, and then suddenly explode when the opportunity comes.

Robben knew his body very well, and there was only one chance like this, and if he missed it, he would never wait again. His feet could not hold on to the game and would be replaced.

Opportunity is enough for one time. As long as you can score a goal, the game will develop in a direction that is beneficial to us...※※In the 58th minute, there is still two minutes left before the fifteen minutes stipulated by Van Gaal. Bayern Munich launched an attack again, and Ribery was still the main attack point. The football was passed to his feet.

Ribery did not break through from the bottom or cross, but suddenly cut inside and dribbled the ball horizontally!

He dribbled the ball at the front of Hoffenheim's penalty area. His speed was not fast, but it made Hoffenheim's players very nervous. Because everyone knows that this Frenchman has a good scoring ability.

Ribery knew what was the key to Robben's performance - his good friend Chu Zhongtian almost locked on Robben. If he didn't attract his attention, Robben wouldn't have a chance.

That's why he suddenly cut the horizontal wheel inward. It can be said that he took the initiative to find Chu Zhongtian.
To be continued...
