Chapter two hundred and sixty-six Bayern Munich nemesis

When Dortmund's players walked into the Allianz Stadium, they were greeted with cheers like tsunamis.

But of course the cheer was not given to them, but to the Bayern Munich players next to them.

Bayern Munich fans use this method to put pressure on Dortmund players to make them clear whose territory it is.

In fact, when introducing the rosters of both sides, Dortmund's players had already felt the "passion" of Bayern Munich fans.

This is no longer uncommon for Dortmund players. Now that you enter the Allianz Stadium, if you don’t hear the sounds created by the opponent’s fans, you may not be able to adapt.

Before players from both sides stepped onto the court, the head coaches of the two teams had already shook hands on the sidelines.

This is not the first time Klopp has fought Guardiola. It is not counting as the first round of the season, and this is not the first time.

As early as the 2011-2012 Champions League, Klopp had already faced Guardiola.

"...Klopp has remained unbeaten in three games against Guardiola, which is something that few coaches in the world football world can do..." Marcel Leif is introducing to everyone. "I won't talk about the first encounter between the two sides this season. Dortmund, who is in a bad situation, tied Guardiola's Bayern Munich 3:3 at home. In the 2011-2012 Champions League, Klopp also had a record of playing against Guardiola. At that time, Dortmund tied Barcelona 0:0 at home. After Barcelona returned to home, they were tied 2:2 by Dortmund, but was eliminated because they did not have the advantage in away goals..."

"So it cannot be said that Klopp has not lost to Guardiola. It has to be said that Guardiola has not beat Klopp yet... In addition, in the history of the Bundesliga match between Dortmund and Bayern Munich, although Bayern Munich has the upper hand with 38 wins, 29 draws and 22 losses, in recent years, Dortmund has completely suppressed Bayern Munich. Since the 2010-2011 season, in the league, the two teams have fought seven times, and Dortmund won five wins and two draws remain unbeaten. Which team can do this when facing the Bundesliga giant Bayern Munich? There is no second team except Dortmund."

It would be fine if this history is not reviewed, but it can be scary - everyone knows that Dortmund and Bayern Munich have been entangled in recent years. Dortmund won the Bundesliga championship for three consecutive seasons, but Bayern Munich also performed very well. The two teams should have a win or a loss, right?

In fact, it is not the case. Looking at the statistics, Dortmund actually completely gained the upper hand, which can be said to be a "beating" Bayern Munich.

In the 2010-2011 season, Dortmund beat Bayern Munich 2:0 at home and 3:1 away.

In the 2011-2012 season, Dortmund defeated Bayern Munich again with two 1:0.

In the 2012-2013 season, Dortmund defeated Bayern Munich 1:1 away and 2:1 at home. Especially this 2:1 is very critical. It was the victory of this game that allowed Dortmund to surpass Bayern Munich, who was one season ahead of Bayern Munich in the standings and became the first in the league. Then, until the end of the season, he never got off the top.

The situation is very similar to this season.

This season, the first time the two sides met was in the 13th round of the league. Dortmund was in a very bad situation at that time. Many main players were injured and the entire defense line was almost ruined. Although they were fighting at home, no one was optimistic about them. There was no suspense about the outcome of the victory or defeat. The only suspense was how many goals Bayern Munich could win away.

As a result, the whole team of Dortmund was like a chicken blood. They fought back and forth, and they actually tied Bayern Munich 3:3 at home.

It was that draw that made the championship competition this season so fiercely, and it still maintains suspense until now.

It’s not that a single point in that draw can influence the league championship. The significance of that game to Dortmund was to rebuild Dortmund’s confidence at the lowest point - we didn’t even have a complete defense line, and the wounded soldiers were all over the camp. Despite this, we can all maintain an unbeaten record against Bayern Munich. So what else can we be afraid of?

Once this idea is buried as a seed in the hearts of Dortmund players, it may sprout as long as the right time is encountered.

Originally, Dortmund has remained unbeaten against Bayern Munich for three consecutive seasons, so Dortmund has a psychological advantage when facing Bayern Munich, which is not an exaggeration at all.

As mentioned before, there are almost no teams in the Bundesliga this season who will not collapse after dealing with Bayern Munich for 60 minutes.

Why emphasize "almost"?

Because only Dortmund did it before the last round of the league draws Bayern Munich's Hoffenheim.

Before the first fight between the two sides this season, Dortmund's confidence and morale fell to the bottom. That period was very difficult for Dortmund. All day long were the prophecies that Dortmund was about to collapse, and all kinds of swearing that they were not optimistic about their voices.

But after half a season of fighting, the situation is completely different

Although Dortmund is still troubled by injuries, the team's morale and confidence are no match for the past.

They just eliminated Paris Saint-Germain and entered the Champions League semi-finals for three consecutive seasons.

They went from being behind Bayern Munich to chasing to only two points in the league, which made Bayern Munich in a mess. In the last round of the league, they were tied by Hoffenheim at home, ending Bayern Munich's record of winning all the home games this season.

Klopp does have his own way of dealing with Bayern Munich, and he also has his own way of dealing with Guardiola.

So Guardiola and Bayern Munich combined and Klopp had a set of ways to deal with it.

This time, in a crucial game, everyone is also curious about how he will deal with Bayern Munich and Guardiola.

※※※

Klopp and Guardiola shook hands and returned to their position. If he could know how everyone commented on him, he would definitely have different opinions - it was not that I had a way to deal with Guardiola and Bayern Munich, but that Zhou Yi had a way to deal with them...

Every time it is a good thing for Bayern Munich, it is basically Zhou Yi. Either Zhou Yi gives out key assists or scores in person.

Especially last season, Zhou Yi's performance against Bayern Munich was amazing.

The league's final moments beat Bayern Munich, helping Dortmund regain its first position in the league.

The Champions League final was also Zhou Yi's last-minute goal, helping Dortmund defeat Bayern Munich and won the Champions League championship for the second time in history.

It can be said that the reason why Dortmund became the double champion last season has a very important relationship with Zhou Yi.

TV broadcasts are actually very clear about this, so when players from both sides enter the court, Zhou Yi's close-up time is the longest among Dortmund players.

Of course, when the players on both sides were sensitive to the appearance before the game, Zhou Yi received the most boos among Dortmund players.

On the one hand, it is because Zhou Yi has been fighting against Bayern Munich for so many years, and it can be called the real "Bayern Munich nemesis", which makes Bayern Munich fans both hate and fear.

On the other hand, of course, Zhou Yi's "crazy words" before the game. Before he played, he appointed Dortmund as the winner, which made Bayern Munich fans very unhappy.

Zhou Yi's crazy is not as direct as Groskreuitz. His "crazy" is very hidden, but in a sense, he is more arrogant than Groskreuitz's bluffing "crazy", because it makes people feel more despised and more annoying when they are underestimated.

※※※

Dortmund and Bayern Munich did not reserve in this game without reservation, and all the main players were sent. After all, there was nothing to reserve. It was basically considered a decisive battle in the league. Whoever wins is the championship. At this time, they still have to be retained. I don’t know what it is to retain their strength.

The prerequisite for pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is to eat it. If it is eaten by a tiger, it will become a real pig.

After all the pre-match procedures were completed, the game officially began.

Because this game is really important, both sides are not very active after the game starts, but are very cautious.

It was not until the tenth minute that the game changed a little.

In the tenth minute, Dortmund organized an offensive in the frontcourt, and Zhou Yi passed the football in front of Aubameyang. Aubameyang fully utilized his speed skills and was about to use his speed to forcibly break through Bayern Munich's starting center back Martinez.

In desperation, Martinez could only reach out and pull Aubameyang to stop Dortmund's rapid attack.

But his foul also caused him to receive a yellow card just ten minutes into the game!

"Martinez is a foul..." Marcel Leif sighed. "His turn is really slow in front of Aubameyang. If there are any weaknesses in Bayern Munich's lineup in this game, I think the central defender composed by Martinez and Dante must be... It's only ten minutes into the game, and as a central defender, he has a yellow card. How do you play in the next game?"

Guardiola on the sidelines also seemed very dissatisfied with the yellow card, but he was not dissatisfied with Martinez's foul, but was dissatisfied with the referee Felix Zwell of the game. He believed that the first foul by Bayern Munich players at the beginning actually showed the yellow card directly, which was really not in line with the normal procedures...

After all, this is Bayern Munich's home court. Even if there is a foul, shouldn't we just give a verbal warning first? Where can we show a yellow card to the home team's central defender?
