Chapter 241 Encirclement and Suppression at the Press Conference
The post-match press conferences of the two games have become the focus of the media, but the game between Bayern Munich and Hoffenheim is the center of attention - although Dortmund won Stuttgart, it was a bit difficult, but it is not unthinkable. . However, Bayern Munich was tied with Hoffenheim at home, which really surprised everyone.
After the game, the reporters went to interview Bayern Munich goalkeeper Neuer. He conceded three goals in this game. Everyone wanted to hear what he thought about the game.
Neuer was frustrated by being tied, but he did not simply and rudely refuse to be interviewed like his teammates. He still stood in the mixed zone and talked about his views on the game.
"...We were indeed out of form today...but even if we were not in condition today, we should have won the game. But we had some internal problems...maybe we imagined this game too easily before the game Already..."
A reporter asked: "Are you distracted by the constant news from Dortmund?"
Neuer was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "No, no. There is no external influence, it is our own problem..."
After saying that, he waved his hand, stopped accepting interviews, and left the mixed zone alone.
The reporters looked at his back. His height of 1.93 meters suddenly became much shorter at this time. With his head lowered and his back hunched over, his back looked very lonely.
Soon, the mixed zone welcomed the jubilant Hoffenheim players.
The first to be interviewed was their centre-back Vestergaard. Although he only scored one point, looking at his expression, it was as if he had scored three points.
"... We are very satisfied with the result of this game. Even in the end when Bayern Munich pressed hard, our counterattack might have scored... Of course, Robben had a good chance in the end, and Bayern Munich almost won 4:3. … It’s great to get a point, which makes us all happy because we all made a great effort, and after all we drew with Bayern Munich…”
Next, Hoffenheim winger Flanders also accepted an interview: "...You must give your best against Bayern Munich. We had almost no time to rest after the game on Wednesday. The best thing today is as a team Everyone is united and our flexibility is closely united, so we can get a draw..."
Seeing the Hoffenheim players happily accepting the interview and then jumping and leaving with arms waving, the reporters were really moved.
"People who don't know think they won..."
"It's almost like victory. After all, it's Bayern Munich!"
"Bayern Munich...ugh!"

The first person to be interviewed at the post-match press conference was Hoffenheim head coach Gisdol. He was very satisfied with the team's performance: "The whole team's performance was brave, and we were rewarded at the end of the game. We were able to It's not easy for Hoffenheim to score three goals and get a draw here, today is a good day for us... I know we haven't conceded three goals at the Allianz Arena this season. Where’s the ball! Haha!”
Then he changed the topic: "Of course, for us, Bayern Munich's ability and strength are still beyond our reach. We work hard to show our abilities and hope to play a good game, so I am very optimistic about the whole team. I am very happy with the team’s performance, although in some stages of the game everyone did not play very well and was a bit chaotic..."
A reporter asked: "Do you know that on the other side, Dortmund defeated Stuttgart 3:2 away from home, so you drew with Bayern Munich today, which may even change the outcome of the league?"
Gisdol smiled: "I know. It feels amazing, as if it has changed the course of history... But I still want to bless Bayern Munich and hope they can get a result that satisfies them..."
After all, we are on someone else's territory, and more than 80% of the people sitting in the audience are local reporters from Munich.
Gisdol still understands the principle of "being a man with his tail between his legs". A draw with Bayern Munich is enough to make the opponent uncomfortable, so he shouldn't rub salt in their wounds anymore...
Then Guardiola came on stage for an interview. He looked a little tired and haggard in the camera. Even the wrinkles on his face seemed to be more and deeper... This is a reflection of the huge pressure a head coach has to bear, so the main It makes sense that coaches are more likely to suffer from heart disease than the general population.
It was obvious that the draw had hit him hard, but he still maintained his grace.
"Congratulations to Hoffenheim, they showed their very good level..." he said, his voice a little hoarse and low.
"We found a good way to score goals in the first half. But we didn't play well enough in the second half. We should have controlled the ball more to ourselves, so problems did arise. The offenses from both sides came and went, and then we Just lost the ball..."
He then said that he now needs to look forward: "There will be a Champions League game in the middle of next week. So this game is a wake-up call for us. We need to analyze the problems in this game as soon as possible, and then focus on preparing for Tuesday's Champions League game. . Then our performance must improve. If we perform the same as we did in the second half today, we will not be able to beat Manchester United on Tuesday..."
He also talked about Thiago's injury: "...Alfat told me that it is very likely that the knee ligament is partially torn... He will definitely miss the game against Manchester United. He is very important to our midfield..."
A reporter immediately asked whether Thiago's injury would not only affect the Champions League, but also the following league games.
"I don't know, I still need more opinions and information from the medical team..." Guardiola did not want to talk about this issue.
But reporters, especially those in Munich, certainly didn't want to let him go easily. Although he had a lot of halo when he came to Munich, his continuous victories also made the Munich media praise him as a god. But once something goes wrong, the picky Munich media will immediately point the finger at him without any mercy.
This is Bundesliga Hollywood. It can enjoy supreme glory and attention, but must also bear the pressure to match it.
"In this game, you rotated the lineup, was it because you were considering the next Champions League game? But when the situation of winning the league is still unclear, is it a bit risky to do so?"
"When Neuer was interviewed after the game, he said that the team's internal underestimation of the opponent was the reason for losing the game. What do you think of his words?"
"The game information from Dortmund always comes here through various channels. Does this affect the performance of the players on the field? As the leader, do Bayern Munich care too much about others? And you have said before that you I don’t care what Dortmund is like…”
"Faced with Dortmund's aggressive pursuit, was Bayern Munich underprepared and panicked?"
…
These explosive questions were thrown out one after another.
Faced with these unkind questions, Guardiola chose to withdraw from the press conference directly - he walked away!
Seeing Guardiola having to flee under the questioning of reporters, many reporters in Munich felt as if a thick cloud was hanging over their heads.
This space team seems to be falling back to the earth...
※※※
The next day, not only Munich, but other German media also covered Hoffenheim's 3:3 draw with Bayern Munich.
"Paniced Bayern Munich!"
"Underestimating the enemy before the game, Team Cosmos destroyed the Great Wall!"
"The tenacious Hoffenheim deserves respect! The proud Bayern Munich has paid the price!"
"Guardiola refused to answer reporters' questions and ended the press conference early!"
"On April 12, the decisive battle against Allianz!"
Some media did not even put a text title, but put two photos on the front page. One was a photo of Klopp laughing during an interview at the post-match press conference, and the other was a photo of Guardiola pushing the door and leaving. The back view of the press conference.
Without any words, it is enough to explain everything. This is the power of pictures.
Trailing by two goals in the away game, Dortmund finally defeated Stuttgart 3:2 and also contributed a great comeback. However, they were unable to occupy the front pages of other media except Dortmund's local media. However, for Dortmund, They must be very happy to do so.
If the previous entangled chases only made the sky darken, there were signs of a change in the sky.
So now there are heavy raindrops falling down, strong winds are blowing - the weather has changed!
