Chapter 120 Balance

Muller's goal helped Bayern Munich equalize the score.

For Arsenal, in addition to protesting and putting pressure on the referee, they also need to keep a calm mind and not be shaken by losing the ball.

Of course, for now, how to conduct the second half of the game is the key.

After Bayern Munich scored, there was only about a minute left in the game.

To this end, both sides slowed down the pace in unison, and they decided to decide the outcome in the second half.

When the midfield whistle sounded, players from both sides began to return to the locker room one after another.

"The first half is over. After 45 minutes of competition, the current score is 1:1."

"Bayern Munich tenaciously equalized the score in the final period, which also made the game suspense in the second half."

"Based on the performance of the first half, Arsenal still had more initiative, and for Bayern Munich, they need to put more pressure on the attack in the midfield and frontcourt. This time, Muller scored a goal. But in the second half, Arsenal would not give them this kind of transfer opportunity again.”

"As for Arsenal, they can still continue the tactics they used in the first half. After all, this has proven that they can effectively control the game."

In the commentator's words, the players from both sides came to their respective locker rooms.

Their breathing was very rapid.

Although they only played for 45 minutes, the pressure of the Champions League final and the intense competition were seriously draining their physical energy.

In addition, in their subjective consciousness, they know that this is the last game of the season, so they almost always run without any effort.

This is also the reason for their rapid decline in physical fitness.

During the halftime period, players need to recover as much physical fitness as possible.

After the Arsenal players entered the locker room, they took off their jerseys one by one and wiped their bodies with towels to make their bodies drier and to keep their bodies in a range that would not allow them to cool down as much as possible.

Mourinho was the last to enter the locker room. He did not make any comments on the first half and directly made tactical arrangements for the second half.

"Bayern likes to play breakthroughs from two wings, with Lewandowski and Muller in the middle, which can connect their offense."

"We focused more on our positioning in our defense in the first half, but we need to change some strategies in the second half!"

Mourinho looked at the crowd and said: "Cut them off!"

Lucky and other Arsenal players showed understanding expressions. After working together for so long, Mourinho put forward the general tactical scope, and they knew how to implement it.

This does not require Mourinho's hand-in-hand instructions, position by position.

"At the same time, the two wingers should retract more frequently." Mourinho looked at Saka and Mane and said: "Not only are you attacking, you also have to drive the midfielder to attack together to form a numerical force. gap."

"If the opponent's defense is not fast enough, you can also wait appropriately!"

Saka and Mane nodded in understanding.

Finally, Mourinho looked at Lucky and said, "Kay! In this game, you try more long shots!"

In response, Lucky pursed his lips and said: "I will try, but if there is a chance, I will give the ball to Giroud."

He believes that passing the ball to Giroud is a better option than taking a long shot.

Unless there is no other way, Lucky will choose a long shot.

Mourinho didn't say anything about this, and he also trusted Giroud.

On the other side, Bayern Munich's locker room seemed more noisy.

Although they equalized the score, Bayern Munich was suppressed throughout the first half.

For this reason, they are under great psychological pressure.

"Push it out! You must push it out! If we let Arsenal steal the ball in our half, we will still lose the ball."

Boateng said seriously.

Judging from the first half of the game, Arsenal's pressing in the frontcourt needs to be better.

This also makes Arsenal frequently threaten their goal.

Neuer is an excellent goalkeeper, but that doesn't mean he can save every ball.

The defense in the first half almost relied on Neuer's saves. Although he also conceded a goal, there was really nothing that could be done about that goal.

"Actually, we played well at the end of the first half. We can try more hand movements."

"Will the referee change the penalty scale? I saw Arsenal starting to protest."

"Let's try it first. If the referee's attitude is clear, we will stop!"

Bayern Munich also has a lot of experience. In addition to tactical issues, they are also taking advantage of some referee factors.

"Okay, boys, the second half of the game is about to begin."

"I'm very pleased that you were able to score at the end of the first half and equalize the score."

"But I need you to remember that our goal is to win the championship, not to chase Arsenal's butt!"

"So, once you have the chance, you must shoot more and let us take the lead."

At this time, a rally whistle came from outside the house, which signaled the start of the second half.

Bayern's coach shouted: "Go! Guys, I'm waiting to lift the trophy with you."

The Bayern Munich players shouted, turned around and walked out of the locker room, and once again entered the game.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought.

The fans in the stands continued their fierce cheers. They never stopped from the moment the game started. The continuous noise and cheers made the atmosphere more lively.

In the stadium, the players of both sides also changed sides and came to the other side to prepare for the second half of the game.

In the second half, Arsenal took the lead in kicking off.

Giroud stepped on the ball and waited for the kick-off. His eyes were drooping, as if he was thinking about something.

The same was true for other Arsenal players. At the beginning of the game, they were all thinking about how to play the game better.

And when the whistle sounded, Giroud passed the ball decisively.

Arsenal also immediately got into the game.

Arsenal passed the ball back, and Bayern Munich also took advantage of the situation to enter Arsenal's half. Just like Arsenal in the first half, they also launched a fierce high-pressure pressing at the beginning of the game.

This high-pressure pressing can suppress the opponent's ball, and at the same time, it can also gain a certain increase in morale.

The ball was passed all the way to Hummels' feet, and Bayern Munich also rushed to the front of the penalty area and continued to press.

Seeing that it was difficult for the central defender to pass the ball, Lekai decisively chose to run back and began to actively involve and assist in the backcourt.

After Lekai retreated, the transmission behind became much smoother.

With Lekai as the core, the pass was constantly connected, and gradually began to show a posture of advancement.

During this period, Bayern Munich did not reduce the intensity of the press, but they also could not stop Arsenal's advancement.

"Shit!"

Thiago couldn't help but curse.

Arsenal, a team with the "passing and controlling gene", is also very good at playing this kind of pseudo-passing and controlling.

It is basically just a tactic for advancement, which also prevents Bayern from completing the steal.

From this aspect alone, Bayern Munich fell into a disadvantage.

After all, in the first half, they faced Arsenal's pressing, and they chose to kick more.

One is a messy clearance, and the other is an elegant advancement.

From the perspective of viewing pleasure, the latter must be more pleasing to the eye, and it also teases the mentality of Bayern Munich players.

Sure enough, the next second, Thiago rushed over and tackled Eriksen who was holding the ball.

This tackle was very fierce, and there was also suspicion of foul.

With a sharp whistle, the referee ran to Thiago, motioned him to stand up, and then took out a yellow card from his pocket.

Thiago led the yellow card for his first foul in the second half.

This made Thiago unacceptable. He should at least give a warning, and the next foul should be a set card, right?

But the referee did not follow this routine at all.

At the same time, the mentality of Bayern Munich players also sank slightly.

Their experience told them that the referee began to find a balance.

And this will definitely benefit Arsenal.

I just hope that Arsenal's sense will not be so sharp, at least it will be delayed for some time.

At this time, they will feel bad if they increase their offensive strength instantly.

Whatever is terrible will come.

After seeing Thiago get a card, Arsenal suddenly stepped up their attack.
