Chapter 999 (Monthly Pass)(1/2)
"Fallen, Ibrahimovic fell in Bayern Munich's penalty area."
"Dant is signaling that he has not fouled."
"The referee Rizzoli's whistle sounded, and he pointed to the - penalty spot! penalty! penalty! At the end of the first half, Rizzoli called the penalty, and he believed that Dante had a foul on Ibrahimovic in the penalty area."
Rizzoli's penalty aroused strong dissatisfaction from Bayern Munich.
Bayern Munich captain Ram defended Rizzoli, saying that it was not a penalty kick and Denter did not meet Ibrahimovic at all.
Dante shook his hand repeatedly, complaining with a bitter look on his face, "I didn't meet Ibrahimovic!", he shouted loudly.
Aston Villa ignored Bayern's behavior, and they were celebrating the penalty.
At this time, there is no need for Aston Villa's players to intervene in the quarrel between Bayern Munich players and the referee, otherwise the situation will only expand and will make the referee dissatisfied with Aston Villa's players.
Yes, when this happens, the profitable party should not join in the fun, and the referee does not need their support and assistance. The referee has a unique law enforcement power on the court. He hates conflict and does not need players to "protect him". As long as you honestly do not cause trouble.
...
Rizzoli's attitude was firm, and he insisted that it was a penalty kick.
"Okay, everyone, I can see it very clearly. This is a penalty." Rizzoli said to Ram, "Please let your teammates disperse!"
"You are favoritism..." Ribero yelled angrily, and Ram quickly pulled Ribery away, but it was too late.
Rizzoli showed a yellow card to the emotional Ribbery.
Seeing this, Ram could only signal his teammates to leave. He could see that the referee was already very popular, and it would only get worse and worse if he was entangled at this time.
"Ribery received a yellow card for protesting. After the game started today, Ribery was in good condition and was very active. He is definitely the one in Bayern Munich who most eager to win the Champions League championship." He Wei said.
"Ribery, what do you mean? He should win the championship, of course, this championship is not easy to win. Villa has now won a penalty kick. If this penalty kick is scored, Villa will lead again." Zhang Lu said.
After Ribery became famous in the 2006 World Cup in Germany seven years ago, the media was very optimistic about him. The general view was that the French Scar Swordsman would become the supreme superstar in football.
However, seven years have passed, Ribery has always lived under the shadow of generations of "football players" such as Kaka, Cro, and Messi.
Although over the past seven years, some authoritative statistical agencies have pointed out that Ribery's one-to-one breakthrough ability and breakthrough success rate are definitely one of the best in Europe.
No one denies that Ribery is a champion player. After all, three Bundesliga champions, nearly ten other cup trophies, and countless German and French Football Awards all prove his extraordinary talent.
However, Ribery has not been recognized by the world enough. One important reason is that he has not achieved outstanding intercontinental trophy results.
Especially in the Champions League final, the World Cup final missed the championship trophy, and this time he fought on the stage of the Champions League final again, which made Ribery extremely eager for this championship trophy.
Therefore, Ribery's emotions are more anxious than other teammates.
...
Slow-motion replay shows that after Ibrahimovic received a pass from Lewandowski in the penalty area, Dante came to defend. The somewhat frizzy Brazilian defender stretched out his right leg and indeed touched Ibrahimovic's support foot, which was a foul.
There is indeed a foul, and there is no problem with the penalty kick.
James Milner is Aston Villa's first penalty kicker.
Milner picked up the football and walked towards the penalty spot.
Ibrahimovic looked at Milner, a little jealous, and he also wanted to punish this penalty.
However, the proud Ibrahimovic did not go to Milner for this penalty.
Another point is that Ibrahimovic is very clear about Fang Jue's strict military management. Although Zlatan is proud and conceited, he is not a fool and will not feel unhappy with the team boss.
Another point is that Milner's penalty kick was not only appointed by Fang Jue. After coming to Aston Villa, Ibrasimovic was dissatisfied with a full-back who came to take the penalty kick at the beginning.
However, Milner's horror of penalty shooting percentage in training defeated everyone...
Ibrasimovic was "surprised" to find out that Milner's penalty kick was so stable!
The penalty kick technique is not mentioned, and the strength and angle are controlled very well: the lower left shot and the lower right shot are basically aimed at the inner corner of the side net, and the goalkeeper has no need to save at all!
Occasionally, there is a burst shot, all of which are high-quality, and the goalkeeper has no time to pounce.
This season, Milner's penalty kicks have maintained an astonishing 100% shooting percentage in all competitions. Even those who are proud of Ibrahimovic have to recognize Milner's position as a penalty kicker.
...
The whistle of referee Rizzoli sounded.
Milner runs up and shoots.
This is a shot with a blast!
Although Neuer judged the right direction, Milner's powerful shot was too fast and he did not touch the football at all.
“Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!”
"Milner! Milner! James Milner! The ball is in! Milner scored the penalty created by Ibrahimovic, 2-1, Aston Villa once again led Bayern Munich in the Champions League final."
"Two to one! Milner will pass the penalty before the end of the first half. Look at the cheers in the stands at the New Wembley Stadium. The excited Aston Villa fans create a huge sound."
Heinx held his hands in his pocket. Seeing the penalty kick being scored, the old coach was pacing with his head down, and his facial expression did not change much. His anger and unhappiness had been vented when the penalty kick was scored, and now he can accept the result of the penalty kick being scored by his opponent with a calm mind.
Fang Jue celebrated with his assistants with high fives.
Aston Villa's bench was also cheering.
It's great to be able to get the score out again before the end of the first half.
Especially when Bayern Munich had just equalized the score, it quickly surpassed the score again. This is not only a boost to Aston Villa's morale, but it can be imagined that it will also bring a certain direct blow to Bayern Munich's morale.
A few minutes later, referee Rizzoli blew the whistle to the end of the first half.
At the end of the first half, Aston Villa temporarily led Bayern Munich with a score of 2-1 in the Champions League final at the New Wembley Stadium in London.
...
Aston Villa entered the locker room with a goal lead.
Aston Villa's players had smiles on their faces. They were satisfied with their performance in the first half and felt that the European champion was getting closer and closer to them.
The Bayern Munich players who fell behind by one goal were more or less frustrated.
Their head coach Heinx stood on the sidelines, patting the shoulders of the players leaving the field, and encouragingly said, the old coach's facial expression in the camera was relatively calm, and it was difficult to judge what kind of mentality he had for the first half, whether he was still acceptable or angry.
Commentators from various countries and regions who live broadcast the Champions League finals expressed their optimism about Aston Villa.
"Aston Villa leads 2-1! In such a final, being able to maintain a leading score at the end of the half will have a very important impact on the psychological impact of both players and even on the trend of the game."
"Aston Villa's tactics are quite successful. They caught Bayern Munich off guard at the opening. Of course, Bayern Munich performed well, and they played beautifully to equalize the score. However, Aston Villa still used a quick goal to tell everyone how well they prepared for this game..."
"The first half was really exciting! There was no dull situation in the final we were worried about. Neither team was conservative. Although there were only three goals, the game process was more exciting than what the game score showed. Audience, this is exactly the peak European showdown we were looking forward to!"
"The score of two to one is only one goal difference, which gives us enough reason to expect the second half to be more exciting," said He Wei.
...
In Aston Villa's dressing room.
The players who were still talking and laughing happily saw Fang Jue looking at them with a serious expression. Soon, the locker room became quiet.
Even if Ibrahimovic is proud, he will put away his sharp claws and be more at ease in front of Fang Jue.
"Two to one, I'm very satisfied with the score and the process. You did a great job in the first half, guys." Fang Jue said.
"Really, I should praise you and congratulate you at this time. But I'm sorry, I can't do this at the moment." Fang Jue shook his head and said.
"What I think now is that if we performed so well in the first half, if we lose the game regretfully, my goodness, this is absolutely unacceptable." Fang Jue continued, "I'm not an exaggeration, you should also know how difficult your opponent is."
"Guys, let's pause the celebration. Remember one sentence, only the real winner is laughing to the end!" Fang Jue paused and said, "Bayern Munich only needs one ball to climb ashore. If one ball is behind, we see victory and championship. Bayern Munich see hope and championship..."
"So, be careful in the second half of the game, guys, we are facing a team that is running carefully and has a high-spirited fighting spirit, and we must be prepared to fight hard."
...
On the other side, Bayern Munich's locker room.
"You guys did a good job, gentlemen." Heinx said to his players.
The players looked up in surprise, and they thought they would hear Heinx's critical words.
Heinx is a veteran German champion coach and has a very high status in German football.
Moreover, this person is a typical old-school German coach and is extremely rigorous in the military management.
Heinx was once described by the media as an old German coach who was 'steady to stiff'.
For example, he always requires the team to maintain the formation at any time, and the forwards must retreat with all their might to defend. Anyone must play firmly according to the established tactics. Players are like screws of precision-running tanks. Just be a good tool guy. You don’t need to be too creative.
However, after entering the palace three times to coach Bayern Munich, Heinx's coaching skills and techniques surprised everyone.
Although it is still a bit rigid, although it is still extremely serious.
But Heinx is changing.
In terms of tactical play, Ribery and Robben's wings flew together to enrich the content.
Because of the existence of Harvey Martinez and Mandzukic, the pressure on Schweinsteiger has also been reduced a lot.
Yes, you read that right. In addition to offensive end, Mandzukic's contribution to defense is also remarkable.
Back to the topic, Bayern Munich's players were surprised to hear that Heinx did not criticize but praised him instead.
Of course, no matter how surprised they were, they didn't think it was Heinx's irony. This old man felt unhappy about you and just cursed him, and would not beat around the bush.
