Chapter 365 5 Minutes in History
"Toni Kroos cross...Gomez misses...Müller header! Goal, goal!!"

In the 83rd minute, when Thomas Muller pushed Kroos's pass into the goal guarded by Petr Cech, Duan Yixuan was so excited that he almost overturned the table in front of him!
No wonder he was so excited, just look at the players on the field, you can understand this mood.

In the first 83 minutes, Bayern had shot 36 times towards Chelsea's goal, but Muller's header just now was their fourth shot on target. That is to say, for every 4 shots of Bayern players, Only once will the goal be scored...

Perhaps some people will say that Bayern was unlucky today, and hitting the post twice is the best evidence.

But a more experienced person will know that such a shot is more because Chelsea's defense is too good.

Chelsea's defense is very tight, so whether it is Robben, Ribery, or Gomez, they are destined not to get too much time with the ball, so they can't take the most comfortable way to shoot, and those who force the ball Foot shot, of course, can only fly to the stands.

36 shots, 17 corner kicks, 11 free kicks in the front court, but only one goal was exchanged. Even so, it was enough for Bayern players and fans to celebrate!

Schweinsteiger, Gomez, Lahm, Kroos, Arjen Robben, Ribery...they put the goal hero Muller under their bodies, and everyone slapped Erwa hard Shoulder, wishing to eat him into his stomach, the joy is self-evident.

Muller was trembling with excitement, and didn't want to get up from the ground even after the celebration was over.

This is a valuable Champions League final goal!His goal is very likely to bring back a trophy for Bayern! -
"Although the goal came late, but... the goal is so beautiful!"

Duan Yixuan and He Wei did not consider the Chelsea fans in front of the TV at all, they chose to support Bayern Munich.

Tao Wei's face flushed even more, while Zhang Lu couldn't stop laughing.

None of them had any problem with Bayern leading by one goal. If there is one regret, it is that their compatriot... did not play.
-
"Daniel, get ready to warm up."

Long Shute, who was sitting on the bench, had just had a simple celebration with his teammates when he heard assistant coach Herman Grande conveying the head coach's tactical intentions.

The one who was called by his name was the defender who had been absent for half a season due to injury since 2012-Van Buyten. He finally recovered before the Champions League final, and finally let Bayern's stretched defense finally have a substitute player... …

"We need to defend solidly, time is running out."

Long Shute heard Heynckes turn his head and said again.

His seat is directly behind Eunuch Hai, so he can understand that this is the explanation given to him by the head coach.

Yes, Bayern leads by one goal, as long as they defend well, they will win the championship, so you don't need to work hard...
-
When the game restarted, it was the lagging Chelsea who were the first to make substitutions.

Di Matteo used Torres, who sealed the victory in the semi-finals, to replace Kalu, who was physically weak, in order to strengthen the offense, but his substitution adjustment was ridiculed by most commentators.

"Di Matteo's substitutions didn't have any bright spots. Does he still expect the Spanish Holy Child to destroy the team?"

Alan Smith, the commentator of England's Sky TV, scoffed at this-after all, he is an Arsenal star:

"Forget it, Torres in the semi-finals was just lucky. When Bayern defended with all their strength, the Spaniard, whose physical fitness has seriously declined, could not find a chance to shoot!"

In the view of the German commentator McKenna, Di Matteo's formation has been problematic from the very beginning:

"Compared to Torres, Chelsea should use the young, fast and impactful local striker Daniel Sturridge, but Di Matteo excluded this striker from the squad!"

Even the CCTV commentators who generally have a good impression of Torres basically have this attitude.

Seeing Torres playing, Tao Wei even felt a lot more relaxed, but in order not to give Bayern a bad reputation, he chose not to speak.

Duan Yixuan did not have this concern, he made it very clear that he was not optimistic about Torres at all:

"If it is a situation where the two sides are attacking and defending each other, Torres may still find opportunities, but now Bayern's defensive trend is very obvious. With Torres' current state, it is difficult for him to break through such an iron barrel formation."

And He Wei is describing Bayern's tide-like offense:
"As of now, the Bayern team has contributed a total of 36 shots. The previous shots were either poor or rejected by the goalkeeper and the goal, but... Cech can block the opponent's one shot, two shots, and ten shots. , even more than 30 shots, but they couldn't stop the opponent from always shooting. The quantitative change caused a qualitative change at this moment. Bayern's persistent attack finally paid off. The elusive Thomas Müller broke through the Czech Republic with an extremely unexpected header. The door god's incomparably strong ten-finger pass..."

Zhang Lu, who has commented on Serie A all the time, said:

"When Bayern adopts a dense defense, Chelsea need a strong center like Drogba. Only this kind of battering ram can smash the opponent's defense line. It is difficult for a shooter like Torres to find a way to attack the city. .”

They were still condescendingly commenting on Di Matteo's substitution, and Heynckes also made his own adjustments.

Just 2 minutes after Torres played, Van Buyten replaced goal hero Muller.

There was a burst of applause at the Allianz Arena.

This is not only an expression of gratitude to Muller for breaking the deadlock, but also an expression of encouragement to the veteran Van Buyten who has returned to the arena after more than four months.

Several commentators commented again.

"Sure enough, Heynckes is still seeking stability, but this is also the most correct choice," Duan Yixuan nodded again and again, "Replacing an offensive player and replacing a defensive player, Bayern is preparing to maintain the 1-0 result. to the end."

"It's a pity. It seems that this game does not require Long Shute to play." Zhang Lu shook his head.

He Wei smiled: "Isn't this better? If we can win the game like this, we don't want the injured Long Shute to fight bloody for the game, right?"

Tao Wei said proudly: "Fighting in blood? That's what Long Shute did when he played for Ajax and the Chinese team. In Bayern Munich, we don't need this kind of superhero who always turns the tide..."

Before he could finish expressing his pride and arrogance, the situation on the court changed suddenly.

40 seconds after Van Buyten came on the pitch, Chelsea won a corner kick. It is worth noting that this is only the first corner kick of the game for the Blues, which shows how lacking a threat their offense is...

It was already the 88th minute of the game. Almost all Bayern players gathered in front of the goal. In front of Neuer, there were black and white heads, black and white. A group of big men like beasts crowded together, exuding a strong hormonal smell.

Mata took a corner kick, the football spun and flew towards the penalty area, and there was a sudden chaos in front of the goal.

In the crowd, someone suddenly exclaimed!

A dark monster jumped up high, he got rid of the reins that bound him, and smashed the ball into the net!

Didier... Drogba!

He equalized for Chelsea in the 88th minute!

Bayern's lead... not even 5 minutes!
