Tottenham Hotspur defeated Bayern Munich 2-0 in the first game of the group stage and temporarily topped the group with a goal difference. This news really shocked many people. You know, when predicting before the game, the number of people who are optimistic about Bayern's away win is far more than the fans who think Tottenham can win at White Hart Lane. After all, no matter what, Bayern is the well-deserved super overlord of German football, with the best players in Germany; while Tottenham is just a new Champions League team that just emerged last season, and was still beaten in the summer. Other teams have poached several main players and important rotation players, and their game experience and tacit understanding are far inferior to Bayern Munich. For the above reasons, people were more optimistic about Bayern Munich's final victory before the game.
But what's the result? Throughout the game, Bayern did not show the slightest bit of the demeanor of a top team. Instead, they were suppressed by Tottenham from the beginning to the end. In the end, they were beaten 0-2 by the home team without any temper. It is very likely that they lost this game. A key battle that will determine the qualifying situation of the entire third group!
Although Bayern was so passive in this game, a large part of the reason was that main players such as Sagnol and Pizarro were absent due to injuries, but even so, it is difficult for fans to accept such a reason emotionally. ——As one of the top giants, Bayern Munich, could it be that after several main players were unable to play, it became impossible to win even a team of Tottenham's level?
You know, except for Sagnol and Claudio Pizarro, who are considered the absolute main players, the other players who cannot play are all just members of Bayern's rotation, and the two core offensive players Ballack and Roy ·Ma Kai also started all games. Under such circumstances, it is really unreasonable that Bayern would be defeated by Tottenham without any temper.
What's more, everyone who has watched this game knows in their hearts that if Tottenham hadn't slowed down their offensive after taking a two-goal lead to conserve energy for the weekend's league, Bayern would have suffered a defeat at White Hart Lane. A pretty miserable defeat! It can be said that the score of 2-0 cannot explain the real gap between the two teams in this game at all!
It is for this reason that after this game, Magath's situation at Bayern suddenly became extremely difficult. Many Bayern fans and players have begun to miss Hitzfeld, who has just resigned, and believe that he is more suitable than Magath to lead this Bundesliga giant forward!
Let’s stop talking about Bayern, now let’s get down to business. The reason why Tottenham were able to top the group standings with a goal difference after their first victory in the Champions League was because in another Group C match at the same time, Ajax played at the Amsterdam Arena and the visiting Juventus scored a big score of three to four, which resulted in the Bianconeri, who only had a goal difference in this round, having to accept the reality of finishing second in the group!
The head coach who led Ajax to such a soul-stirring game was the Czech offensive maniac Zdenek Ze who created the Foggia miracle in the early 1990s and later coached the Roma duo. Man!
Replacing Ronald Koeman as the head coach of Ajax with Zeman, who has struggled in Italian football in recent years, was George's request after his successful acquisition of Ajax. The reason for making such a decision is that, on the one hand, George admired this Czech coach who regarded offense as his life in his previous life, and wanted to give the other party a chance to prove his coaching ability without having to be in the shadow of Juventus like in his previous life. On the other hand, it is because George hopes that Zeman can cultivate more good talents in Ajax, the star dream factory, so as to bring more benefits to him and Tottenham!
In terms of carving and training young players, Zeman can be said to be the best in the entire European football coaching circle. There are not many coaches who can compare with the Czechs in this aspect. For example, now, although it has only been more than two months since Zeman took up the coach of Ajax, the Czech coach's transformation of the team has already achieved initial results - if it were not for Uruguayan teenagers Luis Suarez and Local midfielder Wesley Sneijder and several other young players who have improved rapidly under Zeman's training performed well in this game. So how can Ajax, which has suffered serious blood loss this summer, be Juventus's opponent?
It is foreseeable that under Zeman's coaching, young players such as Suarez and Sneijder are bound to get more performance opportunities and greater room for improvement!
The brilliant performances of Tottenham and Ajax in the first round of the group stage made George and Zeman the focus of European football overnight. Especially George Nelson, who led Tottenham to successfully overthrow Bayern, is the subject of many media reports!
However, George himself has no intention of arguing with the media at this time, or becoming arrogant in this wave of praise - Tottenham's devilish schedule in September has just made a good start, if it is because of a victory If you get carried away, then the only ones who will die next are George himself and the Tottenham Hotspur he coaches!
Therefore, on the third day after leading Tottenham to a good start in the Champions League and achieving an impressive record of seven consecutive wins in all competitions this season, George took the Tottenham players to Stamford Bridge on time by bus. Stadium, prepare with the fullest spirit for a battle with Chelsea!
Before the start of this game, Chelsea led by Mourinho had achieved four wins, one draw and 13 points in the five Premier League games that had ended, temporarily ranking third in the standings with a difference of two points. Tottenham, which has won five consecutive games in the league, are neck and neck with Arsenal in the standings. Therefore, the result of this game will determine the league leader to a large extent!
In Mourinho's view, the young and energetic George will definitely strive to win this game in order to ensure that Tottenham will not be overtaken by their mortal enemy in the standings. Therefore, the Portuguese carefully prepared a set of anti-counterattack feasts, intending to open the eyes of their little junior brother!
However, what Mourinho didn't expect was that George seemed to have seen through his intention. Because after the game started, the Tottenham players ignored the Chelsea players' move to shrink their formation and move their defense line back. They concentrated their forces on the fence and defended their own half, without any idea of attacking!
Come on, when did George, the kid, become so pragmatic? Looking at Tottenham who also put on a defensive counterattack posture, Mourinho couldn't help but be a little stunned. He never expected that George not only was not fooled by the aura of seven consecutive victories and victory over Bayern, but also made a very clear-headed judgment to secure a tie and win the game!
"Jose, this guy, underestimates me. He really thinks that I will be proud of my winning streak at the beginning of the season and let the players take the initiative in this game? Haha, are you dumbfounded now?" Looking at Mourinho not far away, George said to old Charlie with some gloating. Obviously, George was quite proud of being able to defeat his "madman" senior brother in a head-on confrontation.
"George, this move of yours is really cunning."
