Bayern scored the first goal!

This goal was beyond words!

Even Leicester City, which had a solid defense throughout the season, could only shake their heads helplessly at this moment.

This attack was too unsolvable.

In the live broadcast room of England Sports TV, two video replays were being played.

They were Ribery's goal process and Mahrez's attack process just now.

Carragher shook his head repeatedly, looking like he was disappointed.

"Look at Ribery's goal, and then look at Mahrez's way of handling the ball,

"It's really a big gap.

"Although both of them chose to go it alone, the effect was completely different.

" Ribery took advantage of Simpson's grab angle and used his strength to play,

"He used his body to block Kante's defensive position, which was a very smart move.

" And Mahrez obviously had a better chance to pass the ball, but he chose to continue dribbling.

"As a result, he failed to pass Alaba, but his attacking opportunities were destroyed. What a pity.

" This is the gap between Premier League players and Champions League players. "

Carragher said this, and Alan Shearer next to him was a little unhappy.

"I admit that Mahrez had a better chance if he passed the ball,

"But he has no problem dribbling the ball himself, he can try it.

"Ribery also failed to dribble several times just now, why didn't you say anything?

"This kind of goal after dribbling must have a tolerance rate, we should not blame them."

Carragher curled his lips: "You are on Leicester City."

Alan Shearer: "I am not on Leicester City, but on the Premier League. If you criticize the Premier League top team like this, then some Premier League giants with a long history have not even made it to the Champions League, isn't it more embarrassing."

Carragher: "You are overdoing it..."

The two people were bickering in the live broadcast room, and the players on both sides on the court were still fighting hard.

After losing a goal, Leicester City experienced a brief panic and quickly returned to normal.

Losing a goal away from home is not an unacceptable result.

So the Leicester City soldiers are still playing steadily.

During this period, Leicester City made a temporary position adjustment, and Drinkwater and Xia Xing switched positions.

Drinkwater went to defend Robben, and Xia Xing went to the middle to organize the offense and defense.

This adjustment was not Ranieri's idea, but Xia Xing's suggestion.

Now on the field, Xia Xing's suggestion is even higher than Ranieri's instructions.

As the absolute organizational core of Leicester City, Xia Xing has the right to make independent adjustments according to the situation on the field.

Especially now that the team is in trouble, Xia Xing is even more responsible.

After this adjustment, the task of defending Robben was given to Drinkwater.

Although his defensive ability is not as good as Xia Xing, it is definitely a first-class Premier League level.

Coupled with Fox's defense behind him, Robben's activity today is obviously not as good as Ribery's side.

And Xia Xing was freed from the left defense, and he could do more in the middle.

Facing Thiago and Muller, Xia Xing alone blocked their offense.

And he can also pass the ball quickly after stealing the ball and use a killer move.

In the 34th minute of the game, Xia Xing tackled Thiago, stood up and passed the ball directly!

The ball flew to the left side, looking for Vardy!

Vardy sprinted quickly and shot low in front of Benatia!

The ball was saved by Neuer!

This shot was amazing, and the save was also world-class!

Leicester City almost equalized the score!

Three minutes later, Xia Xing made another long pass with a half-high ball!

Straight to the direction of Van Persie!

Van Persie half-volleyed!

The ball slipped out of the goal!

Just a little bit!

After two consecutive counterattacks, Bayern's midfield and backcourt also paid more attention.

Especially players such as Lahm, Kimmich, and Thiago, their assists were also much smaller.

In this way, Leicester City's defensive pressure was also reduced.

The whistle at the end of the first half sounded, and Leicester City temporarily fell behind 0-1.

At halftime, Ranieri made substitutions.

He replaced Albrighton and removed Van Persie.

In this game, Van Persie was almost completely blocked in the penalty area. Except for a shot after receiving a pass from Xia Xing in the first half, he was almost invisible for the rest of the time.

After the adjustment, Leicester City's formation also changed to 4-4-1-1.

Xia Xing was pushed to the front midfielder position.

In front was Vardy.

On the left and right were Albrighton and Mahrez.

Behind were Kante and Drinkwater.

This midfield combination was full of vigor and fighting spirit.

Leicester City was looking forward to equalizing and overtaking as soon as possible in the second half.

However, just as the second half began, they found that Bayern had also changed their formation!

They also removed Lewandowski, who was in poor form, and replaced him with the talented midfielder Gotze, and pushed Muller to the center position.

This is Guardiola's favorite method, not using a center forward tactic, but putting the more flexible Muller in front.

Just like Messi's use in Barcelona.

The talented midfielder Gotze is behind him, like Iniesta.

Xabi Alonso is like his Xabi.

In the second half, Bayern played more possession time and used the two flanks less frequently.

For many Bayern fans, Guardiola is doing something new again.

Since he came to Bayern, he has been abandoning Bayern's traditional tough style of play and wants this German giant to play technical football.

It's natural to sweep the domestic field, no problem.

But in the Champions League, he still needs to prove his tactical usefulness.

However, there is not much time left for him to prove it in the Champions League.

Especially in the second half, Bayern's offense was obviously weaker.

Not only did the number of effective shots decrease, but Leicester City also had more counterattacks.

Xia Xing sprinted after getting the ball twice in a row, cooperating with Vardy and Mahrez.

If it weren't for bad luck and Neuer's heroic performance, I'm afraid Leicester City would have equalized the score.

Until the 88th minute of the game, Xia Xing also shot through Neuer's ten fingers.

But in the end, it hit the post and bounced out, which was extremely regrettable.

When the referee blew the final whistle, both players were a little dissatisfied.

Both sides thought that this result was a little bit off.

Bayern failed to get more goals, and Leicester City did not get an away goal.

All the suspense will be left for the second round!

On the court, the players of both sides exchanged jerseys.

Mahrez and Ribery exchanged jerseys.

The two faced each other throughout the game, and they were sympathetic to each other.

Robben found Fox and exchanged jerseys with him.

Fox played very steadily in this game and was praised by Robben.

Xia Xing's jersey was taken by Thiago.

The two faced each other many times in the midfield, and Thiago admired Xia Xing's skills very much.

Not only is his defense excellent, but his offense is also very sharp.

He is simply a talented new star who can attack and defend both.

And he looked at Xia Xing's Chinese face and couldn't help but say a sentence.

"Xia, your appearance, temperament and excellent skills are very similar to a Chinese friend of mine..."
