Chapter 279 Li Mingyu's Little Trap
At Leipzig Red Bull, Julian Nagelsmann showed his outstanding ability.
On November 2019, 11, Leipzig Red Bull played against Zenit St. Petersburg. After the game, Nagelsmann became the youngest coach in history to lead the team to participate in 7 Champions League games at the age of 32 years and 105 days.
2020年2月20日，欧冠1/8决赛，莱比锡红牛对阵热刺队，这也让现年32岁零211天的纳格尔斯曼成为欧冠历史上最年轻带队参加欧冠淘汰赛的主教练。
2020年3月，莱比锡红牛在主场3-0击败热刺，以4-0的总比分晋级欧冠联赛8强。
The 32-year-old and 231-day-old Leipzig Red Bull coach Nagelsmann was able to break the record again and became the youngest coach to lead the team to advance to the Champions League knockout round.
2020年4月14日，在欧冠1/4决赛的比赛中，莱比锡红牛2-1淘汰马德里竞技晋级欧冠四强，纳格尔斯曼也因此以33岁零21天的年龄，成为率队晋级欧冠半决赛最年轻的主教练。
Finally, in the semi-finals, the Leipzig Red Bull lost to Paris Saint-Germain, and the magical footsteps finally stopped.
However, the semi-finals of the Champions League, this is also the best result of the Leipzig Red Bulls in the Champions League.
In the UEFA Champions League in the 2020-2021 season, the Leipzig Red Bull once again reached the top sixteen, but they met the thriving Liverpool team and finally stopped in the top sixteen.
In the summer of 2021, Nagelsmann, who left from the Leipzig Red Bull, finally agreed to Bayern Munich's invitation and became the helm of Bayern Munich's Bundesliga hegemony.
Nagelsmann built this Bundesliga chariot perfectly. In his first year at Bayern Munich, he once again led Bayern Munich to the Champions League final.
The opponent he faced was the team standing in front of him now, Manchester City.
As a result, Bayern Munich's striker Lewandowski showed his prowess and helped Bayern Munich win his seventh Champions League trophy.
Head coach Nagelsmann also became the best coach in Europe last season.
Facing this young and famous head coach, Guardiola did not dare to relax at all.
He kept shouting on the sidelines to remind the players on the field of their positions and not to be confused by the opponent's actions.
After Lewandowski retreated to receive the ball, it was like a tiger entering a deep mountain. Several consecutive threatening balls made the Manchester City players miserable.
No. In the 60th minute, Lewandowski retreated again to take the ball. The central defender Stones couldn't help but took two more steps forward, and there was an empty space behind him.
Lewandowski sent the ball behind Stones with his heel, and winger Sane quickly inserted like a magic soldier, and dribbled the ball into Manchester City's penalty area.
Laporte hurried to defend, but Sane had already completed the shot.
Goalkeeper Ederson made as many saves as he could, but was too far to prevent the ball from entering the net.
2:2 tied, the big score is already 5:4, and the gap between the two sides is only one goal left.
Inside the Etihad Stadium, the fans cheered suddenly louder.
Fans inspire the team in their own way.
The eyes of the Manchester City players showed evil spirits. Most of the players on the field have experienced the pain of last season's Champions League final.
This time, at his home court, he must not repeat the same mistakes again.
After the re-kick-off, the Manchester City team unexpectedly gave up the previous defensive and counterattack style of play, and began to consciously press the formation, preparing for a bayonet duel with Bayern Munich.
After Guardiola scored the goal just now in Bayern Munich, he waved his hand and decided not to be a turtle.
Bayern Munich's tactics made the Manchester City players a little bit tied. At this time, Guardiola made a very wise choice and handed over the game to the players.
"Li, I leave this game to you, don't let them be so arrogant!"
Guardiola called Li Mingyu to his side and whispered in his ear.
Li Mingyu nodded seriously, and said, "Boss, don't worry, the next game will be left to me, and I will definitely not let you down!"
Looking at Li Mingyu's back, Guardiola felt an inexplicable sense of stability in his heart.
Manchester City's aggressive pressure made Bayern Munich feel uncomfortable for a while, because Manchester City's tactics throughout the game today are defensive counterattacks, and there are rarely such aggressive attacks.
Li Mingyu kept running in the midfield, constantly sending footballs to the two wings, pulling Bayern Munich's line constantly, trying to find space for passing the ball.
However, Bayern Munich's execution is still very firm. After a short press from the high position, they all retreated to within half of the court, and then launched a small-scale siege, making Manchester City's offense difficult every step of the way.
Li Mingyu was running around in a calm manner, passing and controlling, sorting out Manchester City's offense clearly.
Nagelsmann on the sidelines looked at Li Mingyu enviously. Such a player is really rare. If he gives himself this player, he can create a Champions League dynasty for Bayern Munich.
Li Mingyu's continuous passing of the ball made the Bayern Munich players somewhat impetuous. After all, they are still lagging behind.
Kimmich saw that Li Mingyu was observing when he was catching the ball, and that the ball under his feet was slightly out of control, so he quickly rushed up, ready to intercept the ball.
But this is a small trap of Li Mingyu.
Although it looked like the football was slightly out of Li Mingyu's control, Li Mingyu was actually using this ball to fish.
Seeing that the fish had taken the bait, Li Mingyu lightly pulled it with his right foot, and then flicked it lightly. The football slipped between Kimmich's legs very obediently.
Kimmich, with a panicked face, quickly closed his legs, but his body staggered involuntarily, and almost sat down on the ground.
Kimmich, who had already lost his defensive position, could only watch helplessly as Li Mingyu wiped past him and got the football passing through his crotch.
Kimmich's loss of position made Bayern Munich's defense suddenly mess up.
The central defender Alaba, who came to defend, wanted to use his body to lean against Li Mingyu, but Li Mingyu accelerated outwards and easily swayed Alaba past.
After shaking Alaba away, Li Mingyu raised his right foot without any pause, and with an exquisite through ball, sent the football behind Boateng, the last central defender in the penalty area.
When Boateng saw the ball pass, he was very uncomfortable, because the ball was passed too stealthily, it was right in front of his eyes, but he just couldn't reach it.
He could only watch helplessly as the football slid past him and rolled towards the back of the goal.
