Chapter 506: Cristiano Ronaldo scores a winning goal, Real Madrid and Manchester City will battle for the top of Europe!
  Zidane's adjustments confused many people, but the situation on the field really showed results soon after he made these adjustments.

Real Madrid's offensive power began to increase, and Ronaldo, who had performed abnormally in the first 30 minutes, began to regain his form.

Isco's performance is also improving, constantly trying to use his excellent dribbling and breakthrough to find opportunities.

For a time, Real Madrid launched a massive offensive and launched a mighty counterattack against Bayern.

The scores of both sides are on the same starting line, but as long as Real Madrid can score a goal at the Allianz Stadium, it is equivalent to having a 2-goal lead.

Before the rule of away goals was abolished, the value of away goals was so high!
  Seeing that the situation was not good, Heynckes immediately made tactical adjustments.

He asked the wide players on both sides of Bayern to get as close as possible to the opponent's ball player when defending, driving the opponent from the center to the wing, and then took advantage of the weakness of the wing players having fewer options to focus on cutting the opponent's ball. Formation to block the opponent's passing lanes.

Force the opponent to pass the high ball to the frontcourt!
  This move is very commonly used by Atletico Madrid in La Liga. Bayern has also encountered some opponents using this high-pressing style in the Bundesliga.

Now seeing that the situation was not good, he decisively used this trick, giving Real Madrid a sense of déjà vu against their mortal enemy in the same city!
  As we all know, the longer the distance of the ball, the greater the chance that the ball will be intercepted.

Bayern's intention is obvious, which is to use this method to force Real Madrid to make mistakes, thereby recovering the ball and even getting a chance to counterattack.

Seeing this, Zidane sneered: This trick was already cracked by Manchester City in the match between Manchester City and Atletico Madrid yesterday.

Bayern actually wants to use this trick to take advantage of Real Madrid. They are looking down on us!

He made adjustments again, adjusting Real Madrid's players in the backcourt. Instead of letting the defender pass the ball, he asked the defender to pass it back to the goalkeeper, allowing the goalkeeper in a safer position to hand the ball to a player in a safer position. .

After all, the number of players Bayern can press in the frontcourt is limited. With two wingers plus Lewandowski, and at most one Muller, four players are already the limit.

If more people are added, the defense in the front and backcourt will be a bit disjointed.

However, after Real Madrid has the goalkeeper involved, including the four defenders and Bell who retreated, there are a total of 6 players.

The existence of six people gives any one of them five different options when holding the ball.

With only four people involved in the press, Bayern naturally cannot completely restrict Real Madrid's ball route.

So Bayern's trick was cracked!
  However, this does not mean that Bayern's move is completely ineffective. After Real Madrid's four defenders, especially the two full-backs, are suppressed in the backcourt, it is difficult to rush forward to participate in the attack in the first place.

This has greatly reduced Real Madrid's support on the wing, and the offensive threat in the frontcourt has also weakened.

The situation has reached a stalemate again!
  However, just when everyone thought the first half was going to end with a score of 1:0, something suddenly happened on the court!
  In the 44th minute of the first half, when Bayern took a corner kick, Martinez was preparing to fight for the top in the penalty area, but he was hugged by Real Madrid center back Pepe and knocked down in the penalty area.

The referee had a keen eye and saw all this clearly. He blew the whistle without hesitation, showed Pepe a yellow card, and awarded Bayern a penalty kick.

The appearance of this penalty made Zidane unable to sit still. He stood up and protested excitedly to the fourth official, believing that this penalty was definitely a misjudgment.

An assistant coach from Bayern next door was so angry that he pointed at Zidane and asked:

"Damn it, don't you have eyes? You actually said it was a misjudgment for such an obvious foul. I really wonder if there is something wrong with your eyes!"

Zidane himself is not a good-tempered person. When he heard the other party's sarcastic words, he immediately retorted.

The more the two sides talked, the more excited they became, and they were ready to fight directly without saying a word.

Seeing the opposing coach's lack of grace and dignity, the Bayern fans at the Allianz Arena booed the Real Madrid coaching bench.

The team is about to take the lead, and what Bayern fans, who feel they have a huge advantage, want to see most now is the incompetent and furious look of the Real Madrid people.

On the court, Ronaldo put his hands on his hips, panting heavily while looking around the entire court, not knowing what he was thinking.

His performance in this game was not outstanding, and he has not scored a goal for the team so far.

Real Madrid is only one goal away from the final. As long as they can score a goal in the away game, even if the opponent scores the penalty kick, they will advance to the final.

It's just that Bayern is really a tough nut to crack. He has tried his best, but he can't get enough of it.

Do you want to admit defeat so easily?
  Do not!
  I will never agree!
  My journey should not stop here, I have to go to the final stage to defeat that guy with my own hands and take revenge on him!
  Cristiano Ronaldo's fighting spirit was ignited, his eyes became determined, and his whole body exuded an unstoppable momentum!

……

After the referee awarded a penalty kick, in the penalty area, Lewandowski and Thomas Muller were discussing who would take the penalty kick.

According to the seniority and the ranking of penalty takers in the team, Muller should be the first penalty taker, and he should be allowed to take the penalty for this ball.

But Lewandowski feels good about himself, and he is more confident in his shooting skills, so he wants to discuss it with Muller to see if he can take the penalty.

Mueller hesitated for a second, and finally shook his head firmly.

This is his responsibility and he doesn't want to pass it on to others.

Especially in such an important occasion as the Champions League semi-finals, if the opponent misses a penalty, he may be scolded by the outside world after the game, which will definitely have a huge impact on his future career.

As a veteran of Bayern, how can he put such pressure on a newcomer who has joined the team for less than 2 years?
  In the end, Muller stood at the penalty spot. Seeing Muller slowly retreating, Real Madrid goalkeeper Courtois jumped in front of the goal, trying to put pressure on the opponent.

Muller is experienced and has not been interfered by the opponent.

He glanced at the lower right corner of the goal and then sent the ball in this direction.

However, his sneak glance at the lower right corner was caught by Courtois.

He also didn't know what Muller's penalty kick style was, whether he was upright and hit wherever he wanted, or whether he was like Lin Quan, who pointed east and west.

I felt that the honest-looking Muller was not a very thoughtful person, so Courtois chose to make a save in the lower right corner.

He was right!

Muller was very straightforward and sent the ball here, and then Courtois pounced on the ball while it was flying!

Whoa!
  The tens of thousands of Bayern fans at the scene were in an uproar, and it seemed that they could not believe the result.

Muller was also stunned after missing the penalty kick.

He realizes he screwed up!
  This kick is not just a penalty kick, it may be Bayern's chance to enter the final or even win the Champions League!

The morale of both sides seems to have been affected by this penalty. The difference is that Real Madrid's morale has been greatly boosted, while Bayern's morale has been frustrated.

This change in morale was quickly reflected on the field. In the 54th minute of the second half, Bell, who was placed in the backcourt by Zidane, finally played his due role. He used his signature way of passing people from the wing, rushing from the back to the frontcourt in one breath, and finally passed the ball to the penalty area.

Benzema leaped high and passed the ball to Ronaldo on the line of the penalty area.

Ronaldo calmly dunked the ball after taking it, avoiding the defensive player who was trying to grab him. After taking a look at the goalkeeper's position, he calmly completed the shot.

Neuer tried his best to save, but the angle of Ronaldo's shot was too tricky, and he couldn't save it despite all his efforts.

The score on the field became 1:1, and Real Madrid equalized in the second half!

At this time, the total score between the two sides has reached 2:1. Real Madrid not only leads the total score, but also has an away goal in hand.

This means that if Bayern wants to advance, they need to score at least 2 goals.

For a game with less than 40 minutes left, it can be imagined how difficult it is to complete this task.

So after seeing Ronaldo's goal, Zidane and the assistant coaches on the Real Madrid coaching bench all hugged each other excitedly.

This goal can be said to be the winning goal, and this goal alone is enough to send them to the final!
  On the court, after scoring this goal, Ronaldo ran all the way to the corner area and used his signature SIU celebration to celebrate this crucial goal.

"Ahhhh, Ronaldo! I love you!"

Some fans in the stands nearby, especially female fans, shouted his name at the top of their lungs.

"Great! Cristiano! Nice cum!"

While some male fans gave him a thumbs up, they were busy climbing over the railing, planning to rush down and give Ronaldo a warm hug!

In such an important game and such an exciting occasion, it is not surprising that the fans will do anything crazy.

Ronaldo was in a very good mood, as if he had returned to the high-spirited era two or three years ago.

It’s this feeling that I haven’t seen for a long time!
  In the box, Lin Quan and Guardiola had the same judgment in their hearts after seeing Ronaldo's goal.

"It seems that our opponent in the final should be Real Madrid!"

"Well, Bayern's hope of coming back is relatively small. Real Madrid should strengthen its defense next and won't give Bayern too many chances!"

When a wealthy team is really determined and puts down their dignity and defends tightly, it is very difficult to break their goal.

The problem on Bayern's side is actually very serious. Ribery and Robben are not in good condition, and their threats on the court have dropped a lot compared to three years ago.

This is not surprising, after all, Ribery is 33 years old and Robben is 32 years old.

As they age, their physical fitness in all aspects is no better than at their peak three years ago, with physical strength, speed, explosive power and other aspects declining.

In addition, the fatigue for most of the season and the large number of injuries they accumulated in various games have further affected their state.

It can only be said that time is not forgiving, and heroes also have a moment of twilight.

If they had been three years younger, Real Madrid's wings might have been blown out in this game.

In the following time, Real Madrid shrank its defense line and defended with all its strength, just as the two men had guessed.

Bayern launched a crazy attack on Real Madrid. Although Bayern's wing strength has declined, the arrival of Lewandowski has made up for Bayern's offensive firepower on the front line.

In the 74th minute of the second half, Bayern launched a counterattack from the wing. Ribery sent a cross. Vidal headed the ball back to Lewandowski in the penalty area. The latter adjusted his posture and easily used it less than 2 meters away from the goal. On the first point, while completing an alley-oop, he headed the ball into Real Madrid's goal.

The score became 2:1, and the total score became a 2:2 tie. Bayern saw hope of advancing to the finals!

After scoring the goal, Lewandowski immediately rushed into the goal, hugged the football and ran back. At this time, time was running out and it was too late to celebrate.

Seeing Lewandowski's positive attitude and his ability to step forward and score such a crucial goal even when the team was in an extremely disadvantageous situation.

The fans at the Allianz Arena spontaneously applauded him and applauded the entire team's performance just now. I hope they can continue their efforts and use the last 20 minutes to score another goal!
  Bayern's goal brought the suspense of the game back, and the morale-boosted Bayern launched a more ferocious attack.

On the Real Madrid side, the whole team was nervous and gritted their teeth and defended desperately.

Guardiola and Lin Quan, who had been preparing to leave early, saw this and sat down again.

"Can Bayern make a comeback?"

Guardiola asked with some uncertainty.

Lin Quan shook his head: "It's very difficult, although it's only one ball away!"

In addition to Bayern's own good performance, the goal just now has a lot to do with Real Madrid's defense not being focused enough and being careless.

When Ribery completed the cross, Real Madrid's defenders were all staring at Vidal, but no one tried to restrict Lewandowski, allowing the latter to score easily without being marked.

However, it is impossible for Real Madrid to make such a mistake again.

It is no longer feasible to use a cross from the wing and find a header from the center in the penalty area to deal with Real Madrid.

Of course, Bayern is not just a center. Although the wingers on both sides are older and their condition has declined, their experience is still there. No one can guarantee that they will not suddenly break out in the final stage of the game.

If Ribeiro and the two suddenly break out, Real Madrid may not be able to stop them.

However, the miracle did not happen.

After Bayern worked hard for 20 minutes, Real Madrid's goal remained motionless.

When the final whistle sounded, the score was finally fixed at 2:1.

Although Bayern once again defeated their opponents at home, they were still eliminated by their opponents just like last year.

The Southern King of the Bundesliga finally fell before the threshold of the final and once again missed the Champions League final.

Real Madrid also successfully broke out of the siege and joined Manchester City at the top of the Champions League.

In 20 days, the two teams will duke it out at the San Siro Stadium to determine the winner of the 2015-2016 Champions League trophy!
