At the beginning of the game, Bayern Munich launched a fierce offensive against Metz's goal. They obtained the kick-off and took advantage of this opportunity to continuously hit Metz's goal.

Because the first leg of the two sides was a draw, and Metz still scored a away goal, if the total score remained until the end of this game, Bayern Munich would be eliminated because of Metz's away goal. So they must attack at the Santa Forian Stadium, strive for goals and score more goals, first offset Metz's away goal advantage, and then lead Metz in the total score.

At the same time, Bayern Munich actually despises Metz. They think that Metz and their own strength are completely different.

In the last game, I just didn't seize the opportunity and relaxed at the last moment of the game, which allowed Metz to score the equalizer goal. As long as I get serious in this game, Metz will definitely not be their opponent.

Theoretically, their idea is correct - no team should be underestimated when it comes to seriousness.

But the question is, can they really get serious?

Ribery was particularly active in the game, frequently raising his hands to ask his teammates for the ball. Once he got the ball, he would use his sharp breakthrough to threaten Metz's goal.

And Metz fans also kept booing him after he got the ball.

The atmosphere between the two sides was not friendly at all.

Not long after the game started, Ribery received the ball on the left. He did not pass the ball to anyone, but made a false move to break through to the bottom line, and suddenly changed direction and dribbled across the side and then took a long shot outside the penalty area.

Winby tried hard to save the football, and the kick won the Metz fans in the stands very dissatisfied. In their opinion, you are already inauthentic in the digging of our Chu. You are still so desperate in the game. Do you want to see Metz being eliminated?

Now that the relationship between fans and Ribery is at the lowest point, they certainly would not consider that such hard-working games are a problem of basic morality of a professional player. Just a week ago, Ribery was also working so hard on the turf of Allianz Stadium, but Metz's fans still gave him applause.

Chu Zhongtian was a little worried about the booing from the fans, and he was worried that it would stimulate Ribery to perform very well. Ribery was the kind of person who refused to give in. The more injustice he suffered, the stronger his rebound would be.

Rather than trying to stop Ribery from playing, it is better to try to get Metz to score first.

After the game, Chu Zhongtian's strength gave Bayern Munich coaching staff a new understanding, and his role in Metz was also very obvious. In this game, Heathfield asked Bayern Munich's midfielders to strictly guard Chu Zhongtian. He could not be allowed to move freely in the midfield.

When Chu Zhongtian got the ball, he faced Bayern Munich's tight defense. Van Bomel is a midfielder with both offense and defense, but his main task in this game is to defend Chu Zhongtian.

Bayern Munich's starting lineup in this game was exactly the same as in the last round. In midfielder Schweinsteiger was responsible for organizing the offense, while Van Bomel focused on defending Chu Zhongtian. Of course, his teammates would also help him in defense.

Chu Zhongtian and Fan Bomel fight in midfield.

Chu Zhongtian took the ball, and Van Bomel came up to press. Chu Zhongtian turned around and protected the football in front of him. Van Bomel pushed him from behind, preventing him from turning around easily.

Then Schweinsteiger ran up from the front and wanted to complete a front and back attack with Van Bommel.

Chu Zhongtian did not compete with these two people for his skills, but instead passed the football sideways.

However, Ribery had already guessed that his pass had come to his mind. He moved ahead of time and snatched the ball in front of Obertan.

Obetan was a little surprised. He was still waiting for the ball on the spot, preparing to turn around and break forward. He didn't expect Ribery to intercept the ball so quickly.

After Ribery intercepted the ball, he looked back at Obertan.

As his apprentice at Metz, Obettan's performance really made him feel dissatisfied - how could he stand in place and wait for the ball? Don't you look at the surroundings before you catch the ball? Idiot!

Ribery scolded Obetan in his heart and wades the football away.

Chu Zhongtian didn't bother to complain to Obetan, so he turned around and ran back. His target was Ribery.

Of course, Ribery knew what choice Chu Zhongtian would make after conceding the ball - he would definitely chase back. The two of them have been teammates for three seasons and are very familiar with each other's habits.

So Ribery did not show off her skills in front of Chu Zhongtian, and passed the football out before Chu Zhongtian caught up.

Then Bayern Munich launched an attack, and Tony's shot was finally held in his arms by Wimbie.

Chu Zhongtian soon discovered that as long as he got the ball, he would be filled with Bayern Munich players. No matter which direction he passed the ball, he might be cut off.

Simply put, he fell into the trap that Bayern Munich prepared for him.

Van Bommel was stubbornly stubbornly, but he was not the main person who intercepted the ball. Others who intercepted the ball might be Schweinsteiger, Ribery, or Ze Roberto. They might even be Podolski and Tony who retreated.

This is very difficult for ordinary people. But for Chu Zhongtian, the greater the difficulty, the more opportunities he has.

Why?

Think about it, what happens elsewhere when Bayern Munich players are surrounded by him?

Empty, emptiness... Although Chu Zhongtian was surrounded, he was still trying hard to find the other party's empty place.

Although this is a bit difficult, sometimes his feet will be cut off because of slow shots, and sometimes he will make a pass mistake due to haste shots.

But he is still insisting on this approach, and he believes that as long as one pass is successful, it will be enough to threaten Bayern Munich's goal.

After seeing the difficulties faced by Chu Zhongtian, Metz's players also rushed to support him. For example, the other three midfielders consciously moved closer to Chu Zhongtian to reduce the distance between them, which also reduced the difficulty of Chu Zhongtian's passing.

They shortened the distance between them and Chu Zhongtian, which indeed reduced the pressure on Chu Zhongtian.

However, this has led to a disconnect between the midfield and frontcourt. In order to maintain a close enough connection, as the striker, Ibissevic and Menez must retreat and respond. Once they retreat, the distance between them and Bayern goal will be farther. As the striker, the further away from the opponent's goal, the smaller the threat. Metz's offense has not improved much during this period, and it is also related to the current entanglement between the two sides in the midfield.

After all, Bayern Munich is stronger than Metz. They can still gain the upper hand in such a tug-of-war. Sometimes they can intercept the ball in the midfield to launch a counterattack. However, because Ribery, Ze Roberto, Schweinsteiger approached the middle, the personnel were too concentrated and the support for the forwards was actually very limited. Therefore, there are not many opportunities that could truly threaten Wimbee.

The game lasted twenty-five minutes, and the two sides were still in a stalemate in the midfield. Metz could not score the goal, and Bayern Munich could not start the deadlock.

Regarding the current situation, Metz's head coach Jean Fernandez is happy to see it. Because a draw without scoring on both sides can also ensure that Metz advances. He sat on the coach's seat and did not make any adjustments, or he believes that the current situation does not require him to make major tactical adjustments, but only the players need to make small-scale self-adjustment themselves.

Bayern Munich's head coach Heathfield couldn't sit still. His team was not qualified to spend so much time with Metz in the midfield.

The tactics he set up specifically for Chu Zhongtian now seem to be self-bound. Although it restricts Chu Zhongtian's performance, it also makes his attack lose its threat. This kind of "killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred themselves" is too unpaid.

Seeing that the first half was halfway through, if the game continued like this, I could only count on luck to stand on Bayern Munich.

He stood up from his seat, walked to the sidelines, and sent a signal to the field.

He signaled Bayern Munich's two full-backs to increase the number of assists to go forward.

Since the midfielder is going to have a tug-of-war with Metz, then use the assists from the full-back to open up the situation.

Ram was originally a defender with super assists. The first goal in Germany's World Cup was when he suddenly scored a long shot after breaking through on the wing. On the other hand, Jason almost was a German international, and he had the ability to shoot a long shot and made a good cross.

As soon as Bayern's two full-backs came up, the situation changed immediately.

While the two sides were having a midfield tug-of-war, the attacks from both sides made Metz overwhelmed with the defense. The goal guarded by Winby began to be in a hurry many times. He also became the Metz player with the most frequent appearances in TV close-ups.

※※In the 40th minute, Chu Zhongtian took the ball in the midfield. As usual, there was Van Bomel who was inseparable from him, and Ribery was not far away, and Schweinsteig was also rushing towards him.

Van Bomel is still constantly infecting him with his feet to control the ball. As long as he is not careful, he may lose the ball.

In desperation, he had to pass the football back.

The football returned to the center back Rodriguez. After Rodriguez got the ball, he looked at Chu Zhongtian's situation and passed it back again. It was probably still a return pass.

You can't always rely so much on Chu Zhongtian, and you must seek ways to relieve his pressure.

He looked at the wing and passed it to the full-back!

Seeing that he did not pass the ball out immediately, Podolsky controlled the ball under his feet, looked around and observed it, so he ran up and planned to counterattack on the spot.

Under his press, Rodriguez rushed the ball under his feet to the sidelines, giving left back Frank Signolino.

His ball was very powerful. In order not to let the football go out of bounds, Signolino barely stopped the football in the air with his chest on the sideline. But when he adjusted the football, Philip Ram was already by his side.

Signorino was panicked and had the only idea of ​​breaking through. He planned to poke the football out of the opponent's legs, but Ram had already expected to do so, pressing the center down in advance and closing his legs. He just stopped the football kicked by Signorino.

The Signolino people crossed over and found that the football was not following. When he turned around and chased, Ram had already swept the football out and ran towards Metz's goal.

"Ahhhh! This is a great opportunity! After waiting for forty minutes, there was such a big gap in Metz's defense line. Ram dribbled the ball and rushed forward. In front of him, only Metz's two central defenders and a goalkeeper... Bayern Munich's counterattack!"

After passing the ball, Chu Zhongtian kept moving, seeking cooperation with his teammates.

So he is now the closest Metz player to Ram.

He rushed towards Ram from the diagonal back, intending to intercept the ball. Because it was too late to start, if Ram was not stopped here, it would be too late to wait for Ram to enter the penalty area, so he chose a very dangerous defensive action, which could lead him to get a red card - he ran to Ram's heel with a flying tackle.

Ram, who was driving the ball at high speed, could feel Chu Zhongtian's plan. When Chu Zhongtian came, he gently knocked the football out, jumped high, and flew over Chu Zhongtian!

"Oh! Chu didn't shovel it! He was passed!"

Metz's two central defenders, Rodriguez and Traore rushed towards Ram's direction. There was only one Kabo guarding the huge space in the middle... Ram did not have his own goal. When he saw Tony who was responding to him in the middle, he passed the ball horizontally.

Football passed through Traore and Rodriguez, and Cabo completely missed Luca Tony behind him.

The Italian center, who was 1.9 meters tall, stopped the ball from Ram calmly, and then shot again.

Winbi turned around and rushed forward, it was already late. The football rolled into the goal against the post!

"Oh!" The German commentator shouted. "Tony! Tony! Luca Tony!! The ball was scored-! This is a very critical goal. Bayern Munich not only took the lead in the total score, but also had an away goal! In this way, even if Metz equalized the score, Bayern Munich would not be eliminated within 90 minutes. They can drag the game into overtime...a classic on-site counterattack!"

After scoring the goal, Tony made his signature celebration move - one hand was placed in his ear and kept turning. He wanted to hear the cheers of Bayern Munich fans in the stands.

He got what he wanted.

After being scored, Metz fans were a little lost, and the few Bayern Munich fans gave huge cheers.

"Long live! Bayern!"

※※※"It's so damn!" The goalkeeper Winby was very angry with the concealment of the ball. He shouted at Signolino: "You should be more decisive when handling the ball!"

Signolino, who had chased back to the penalty area but still failed to stop the goal from being lost, was also very aggrieved: "What does this have to do with me? If Javier hadn't passed the ball so hard..."

When Rodriguez heard Signolino pushing the blame on him, he was furious: "Who told you to be so far away from me? If I pass lightly, I will be cut off by the opponent. Look at where you have gone? You have already reached the center line before I pass the ball!"

The two were teammates, but because of this goal, they turned against each other, and no one was willing to admit that it was his own responsibility to conceal the goal.

Chu Zhongtian and Promum rushed over to persuade him to fight.

"Stop arguing, stop arguing. OK, brothers, stop arguing!" Proman pushed away Rodriguez and Signolino who were pushing together.

Chu Zhongtian said to them: "It's just that we lost a goal, and we still have half a game. What's there to argue? Instead of arguing here, it's better to think about how we want to score!"

The TV commentators also noticed what happened in front of Metz's goal, and the German commentator applauded: "It seems that there was an internal strife in Metz, which is good news for Bayern Munich players. Internal strife will greatly affect their combat effectiveness! Our players should seize the opportunity and strive to score another goal before the end of the first half - five minutes left, why is it impossible?"
