Original title: lucky! Bayern's defensive tactics to start the game nearly sent 0-2 so play Paris really hanging
3-0! Bayern took down Lyon to advance to the final. But the game wasn't as easy as the scoreline suggests. Before Bayern scored to break the deadlock, Lyon was actually closer to scoring. Unfortunately, Depay and Ekambi missed their chances to score. And Lyon's missed chances were eventually "punished" as Gnabry and Levin scored 3 goals in a row to kill the game ......
Before the match, Bayern manager Frick repeatedly reminded the Bayern players that they must maintain 100% concentration during the match. But after the match, Lyon's players seemed to enter the state earlier. In the 4th minute, Lyon backfield a precise straight to tear Bayern's defense, Depay high speed with the ball into the Bayern penalty area has Boateng and Alaba behind. Facing Neuer who abandoned the door to attack, Depay tripped the ball to the right and prepared to shake the angle, but unfortunately his last shot was deflected.
If one missed chance wasn't enough to ring Bayern's alarm bells, Lyon actually came one step closer to scoring in the 17th minute. Still straight from the right side of the backfield, Depay's striker partner Ekambi once again burst into the box, he first got rid of Davies, and then deducted over Alaba who was replacing him, and his low shot from the right side of the box had already crossed Neuer's ten fingers, but unfortunately the ball hit the post and bounced out.
Two sharp direct counterattacks, one closer to a goal than the other, Lyon would have even been 2-0 up on Bayern if they could have capitalized on their chances. However, Bayern's strength lies in its ability to quickly adjust itself during the game and capitalize on the chances it creates. Although there are some problems in the back line, Bayern's offense is as smooth as ever. Gnabry's two cuts from the right side of the field changed the course of the game. When Levin scored a goal in the second half, it completely killed the game.
Although wish to be among the final, and is 3-0 big score to advance, but still should see the Bayern back line there are some problems. Especially in the case of high press overall defense premise, Bayern how to guard against the opponent's counterattack, which is definitely a problem Bayern need to solve in the final. After all, Mbappe, Neymar and Di Maria and other world-class attackers have both speed and technology, as well as the stability of the door to grasp the opportunity, compared to Depay, Ekambi is certainly a lot stronger. If Bayern still give so many chances, Paris will definitely "smile".
In addition, Bayern's back line is not completely over the top in terms of single-player defense. Even against Lyon, neither Boateng and Alaba at the start, nor Güller, who replaced Boateng in the second half, could fully cope with the opponent's impact. Especially in the face of impact forwards, the Bayern backline always seems to be less than reassuring. If not for Neuer's control of a much larger range of control than the average goalkeeper, Bayern obviously difficult to ensure that this campaign zero shutout opponent. The face of Paris individual ability is very strong attack group, how to make up for the lack of individual defensive ability through the team defense, is also Frick in the final before the need to solve a problem.
