Chapter 261 Gomez's Obsession

Both sides have made sufficient preparations for this game. It is no exaggeration to say that this game will determine whether the overall championship trend of this season will maintain the current three-legged rivalry or become a duo in the Ruhr area. Falling behind so early in the title race, Van Gaal never thought about it. Instead, he felt that this season was a good time for revenge.

Mario Gomez's excellent state gave him such confidence. Currently he has scored ten goals in the scorer list. In the first two seasons, he was only a marginal figure in Van Gaal's tactics, and he is very important in Van Gaal's mind. He has gradually become equal to Klose and Thomas Muller, the new World Cup golden boot, and now he is also the most stable firepower for Bayern's striker.

Van Gaal's pre-war mobilization in the locker room was very interesting. He said to everyone: "Please fight for Mario in this game! This game is a good opportunity for him to catch up with Zhou Tiancheng's goals. All you have to do is Two things: first, shut Zhou Tiancheng up on the court! Never give him any chance to score goals. Second, create more chances for Mario!"

After speaking, Van Gaal turned to Mario and said, "Mario, take it easy and play."

But Van Gaal obviously doesn't understand the psychology of the players. The dressing room is serious and even has a chilling atmosphere, so how can the players not think too much?

The only thought echoing in Gomez's mind now is - I want to score!

He had two chances to win the Bundesliga Golden Boot. The first time was in the 2007-08 season. He had the opportunity to win the Golden Boot when he was playing for Stuttgart. The number of Bundesliga goals in that season was the fewest in recent years. Nine goals ranked second in the scorer list, but lost to Bayern striker Luca Toni by five goals. In the next 08-09 season, he scored 24 goals, tying the The number of Golden Boots last season, but Wolfsburg Shuangsha Grafite broke out helplessly, and Gomez lost another four goals. Gomez doesn't want to repeat the same mistakes this time, especially if he loses to a midfielder, as a striker, what face do you have?

When he walked to the court, he even shook his fist at Zhou Tiancheng in a demonstration while the two sides were shaking hands before the match.

Taking advantage of the first kick-off in the first half, Bayern completed a shot in just 30 seconds of the opening.

"Oh! Mario Gomez! Thanks to Neuer for making a great save!"

Gomez looked regretful after the ball was saved, and gave a high thumbs up to Muller who passed the ball towards him.

Van Gaal on the sidelines was quite excited, punching and applauding. Although he missed the goal by a tiny bit, at least this attack at the beginning allowed him to see the cooperation between Kroos, Muller and Gomez. As a result, this is the offensive routine that the team relies on this season. As long as it can be used, it is only a matter of time before Gomez scores.

Bayern started off a bit anti-customer-oriented, but Magath had expected that Bayern would make such an arrangement. After all, they are now more passive in the general situation. If they don't take the initiative to fight, it is not Bayern.

Schalke is even more aiming at three points this time, but in order to ensure a more secure win at home, Magath chose to shrink the overall formation at the beginning of the game. Even Zhou Tiancheng retreated temporarily, and the midfield became completely three. Defensive midfielder. With Bayern showing their strengths, it is very risky to confront them head-on. After all, Bayern’s offensive ability has always been one of the best in the Bundesliga. Before the game, Magath carefully summarized the key to killing Bayern three times last season: seize the momentary loopholes and quickly counterattack It is the magic weapon for winning.

As long as there is Zhou Tiancheng's counterattack weapon, Magath has full confidence in the efficiency of the counterattack.

So he has plenty of time to wait for the opportunity slowly.

But Gomez grabbed the opportunity above Papadopoulos, which made Magath very dissatisfied. He frowned slightly, but when he saw Zhou Tiancheng walking towards Papadopoulos, he knew that he could not Needless to say.

"Kyriakos, why did you lose your mind? I really admire you, you can lose your mind even when you fight Bayern. This is their big weapon, you can't be sloppy."

Papadopoulos explained angrily: "Just now I thought there would be trouble with Benedict."

Zhou Tiancheng glanced at Hewedes, then stood directly in front of him, and said, "Is this okay? I'll help you."

Papadopoulos was a little worried again: "Is this okay? You are in charge of the offense."

"Why not? Didn't the boss say that we should do our best to defend first? Just do your own thing well. If you are a leader, don't be so cautious."

...

After the opening trial, Bayern saw the effect, and quickly and firmly played a high ball towards the middle. With Robben and Franck Ribery's breakthrough ability, it is not difficult to create a space in the cross, but in the middle, Gomez was just about to take off, and suddenly felt huge pressure on him from both the front and back. It's not good to give birth to two points. Was flanked.

Feeling the huge pressure, Gomez knew that he couldn't take off at all, his waist and abdomen were stuck, and he had no support for his power point, but seeing Robben's extremely beautiful arc ball in front of him, he directly followed the goalkeeper and the goalkeeper. Passed from the area between the defenders, as long as he can touch it, he can go in. Gomez is heartbroken, relying on the characteristics of his height and long arms to prop up the ground with one hand, and slams forward, relying on the inertia of the body, The whole person jumped out directly.

It's just that compared to Robben's ball speed, Gomez's rush to the top was still a bit slower. He almost flew past the ball with his scalp.

"Mario Gomez, today he is the one who most wants to score goals. This is a good opportunity to catch up with Zhou. It is understandable that he is so urgent. How many times can a striker have the opportunity to compete for the Golden Boot?"

Although Duan Xuan said so, Van Gaal didn't necessarily think so. He suddenly regretted that all his offensive tactics revolved around Gomez. The usually calm Gomez is the team's big killer, but today he seems to only have the goal in his eyes, and he has left behind his responsibilities as a tactical fulcrum.

Holding Zhou Tiancheng and Papadopoulos outside the penalty area, Gomez was very tough this time. Muller had already slanted into the penalty area by his side, but Gomez didn't see it at all. Instead, he forcibly pulled the ball and turned around to volley, but Zhou Tiancheng blocked him with his body, wasting a potential opportunity to score.

Van Gaal looked at Gomez who was dominated by his obsession, feeling a little irritated in his heart, but he chose to forget what he said in the locker room. Gomez must have half of the credit for becoming a lone wolf on the field. .

Coaches who know how to control the atmosphere in the locker room will definitely not emphasize such words, but if Van Gaal can understand that, Harvey will not publicly say to the media that he once thought Van Gaal was a SB.

PS: It will be delivered in the middle of the night, and we will continue tomorrow. Ask for a monthly pass, and come to the bowl quickly!
