Chapter 299 The Recovery of Bayern Munich
Chapter 299 The Recovery of Bayern Munich
After the official start of the league in the second half of the season, it didn't take a few rounds for everyone to find out that Bayern Munich had changed.
There are more young people playing games.
Schweinsteiger even occupied a main position.
Others, like Misimovic and Trohovski, also got more playing time than they did in the first half of the season.
Sauer has become the main force in the first half of the season and has been reduced to a substitute.
Salihamidzic is no longer the absolute main force.
At the same time, Bayern Munich's performance has also become stable and better.
In the four league games throughout February, Bayern Munich achieved four wins and four wins.
And Werder Bremen has three wins and one tie.
Although the league rankings of the two teams have not changed, Werder Bremen is still first and Bayern Munich is second.
But the points gap between the two teams has been narrowed.
At the most time, at the end of the winter break, Werder Bremen led Bayern Munich by as much as [-] points in the standings.But now the difference between the two teams is ten points, and they are drawn closer by two points.
Rongguang's performance is still outstanding, and his total number of goals in the league has reached eleven.And his threat is not only reflected in goals.He used sharp personal breakthroughs to create opportunities for the team time and time again in the game.
Although Bayern Munich's performance has improved and improved, the voices criticizing and mocking Bayern Munich and Hitzfeld in the media have not diminished.
In particular, Heathfield's adjustment turned out to be to reuse young people!
This is really ironic.
"He has increased the playing time of young players in recent games. It's ironic - you know, why did Rong leave Bayern Munich and go to Werder Bremen? And Lahm, the young man who couldn't play at Bayern Munich, went to Stuttgart, and then under Magath. Bayern Munich started to catch up with Werder Bremen in the league standings, and now we are still [-] points away. Compared with the previous [-] points, we have improved...But I want to say that if Hitzfeld did this earlier, then Bayern Munich has completely thrown off all competitors in the league standings, and maybe we will be able to win the championship early in April!"

In the third round of No.20 in the league, Werder Bremen defeated 2 Munich 0:1860 in the away game. Rongguang didn't score a goal, but had an assist.He assisted Klashnic to score a goal.
But Bayern Munich also won, also on the road, they defeated Leverkusen 3:1.
In the No.20 round, Bayern Munich defeated Rostock 3:0 at home.
Werder Bremen defeated Cologne 3:2 at home.
The two teams are still very far apart.
Werder Bremen's two-game winning streak did not shake off Bayern Munich.
Bayern performed very tenaciously in the second half of the season, and they have won six consecutive victories.
After this league is over, it will be the semi-finals of the German Cup.
Bayern Munich host Borussia Monchengladbach and Werder Bremen host Lubeck.
Considering that the team has always played in the league with a lineup, Schaff is worried that as the league progresses, the team's physical fitness will have problems, especially now that Bayern Munich has shown a trend of resurgence. Schaff dare not take it lightly, so he did not arrange all the main players to participate in this German Cup. Absolute main players like Rong Guang did not even enter the squad.
Schaff has already decided that if the German Cup is eliminated, it is eliminated, it does not matter.
What matters is the league title.
Werder Bremen, who are all substitutes and second-tier teams, are having a hard time playing at home.
They fell behind 0:1 in the first half.
However, their luck was good. At the end of the second half, Elton, who replaced Rongguang in the game, equalized the score for Werder Bremen.
After he scored, the long-lost voice of cheering for Elton finally sounded at the Weser Stadium-this voice has been the main theme of the Weser Stadium in the past few seasons.
But this season, when a new generation replaced the old ones, Elton was gradually forgotten intentionally or unintentionally when everyone was cheering for the glory.
It was revealed in advance that Elton's transfer to Schalke 04 made these fans very dissatisfied with Elton.
But time can dilute everything.
The Werder Bremen fans' hatred for Ayrton has now faded.
Now at this time, Elton's goal saved Werder Bremen's cup life again, and the Werder Bremen fans cheered Elton again regardless of previous suspicions.
Although in Schaff's mind, it doesn't matter if he loses the cup for the sake of the league championship.
But the fans of Werder Bremen are still more flexible. They hope that the team can win both the league championship and the cup championship.It would be great to be able to win a double crown!

The Werder Bremen fans in the stands were cheering for Elton, and the teammates on the sidelines were also celebrating the goal.
Even Rong Guang was cheering for Elton in the stands - he didn't want Werder Bremen to be eliminated. He was also greedy and wanted to win both the SA championship and the cup championship.
Because, that's all money!
There is a prize for the champion!
In fact, before the game, he also took the initiative to ask the head coach Schaff to fight, and he told Schaff that his physical fitness was not a problem.
But Schaaf told him that not letting him play was not only due to physical considerations, but also worried about his injury.
The current glory is the treasure of Werder Bremen, and it cannot be easily injured.
To ensure a healthy body, you can make more contributions to the team.
Rong Guang liked Schaff's statement very much - he didn't let himself play because he valued himself.
So he didn't count things like losing a game's appearance fee.
Instead, he happily sat in the stands and watched the game with Deborah and Sun Fengyang.

A late goal from Elton sent the game into overtime.
The game was almost over, but he came back from the dead, which boosted the morale of the Werder Bremen players.
They were brilliant in extra time, scoring two goals, while Lubeck only scored one.
In the end, with a total score of 3:2, Werder Bremen eliminated the second-tier team Lubeck and advanced to the final in a thrilling manner!
When the game was over, the Weser-Arena erupted into loud cheers celebrating the team's progress to the final of the DFB-Pokal.
The TV broadcast captured the footage of Schaff voluntarily hugging Elton after the game. The two used such actions to resolve their previous grievances.
"I think that Bayern Munich's six-game winning streak in the second half of the season made Schaff also feel great pressure. When the competition in the league is gradually becoming fierce, Werder Bremen also needs to maintain unity and tranquility within the team, and at the same time need more rotation players to help the main lineup. Elton is such a good candidate. Schaff took the initiative to appease Elton and prepare for the next league decisive battle with Bayern Munich."
The narrator Beckman analyzed the significance of Schaff's move for everyone.

A day later Bayern Munich beat Borussia Mönchengladbach 1-0 at home.
Also advanced to the finals!
The two teams competing for the championship in the league will meet in the final of the German Cup. This is really dramatic.
In other words, if Werder Bremen wants to win this season's double, they will have to beat Bayern Munich in both the cup and the league.
For Bayern Munich, this arrangement also gives them the opportunity to personally prevent Werder Bremen from reaching the top.
In the league, the difference between the two sides is very large. This gap is still within a safe distance, but if Bayern Munich continues to win like this, I believe it will still bring some pressure to Werder Bremen.
"...The Bundesliga this season suddenly looks good..." said the presenter Beckmann in the ace program "Sports News" of DFB.
He spoke out the feelings of many people.
In the first half of the season, Werder Bremen went all the way, perhaps only Werder Bremen fans will feel happy.
For fans of other teams, watching the suspense of the league championship end early is really boring.
And such a thing is not a good thing for the entire Bundesliga.
Why is the Premier League the number one league in Europe, because they are highly competitive.The Bundesliga has long been dominated by Bayern Munich. This season, Werder Bremen has finally emerged. As a result, Bayern Munich has been sluggish again, and Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen have also fallen into trouble.
In the entire league, no team can pose a threat to Werder Bremen.
If this continues, the Bundesliga will always be an uncompetitive league.
Fortunately, Bayern Munich has recovered in the second half of the season. Although Dortmund and Leverkusen are still not performing well, at least one team can pose a threat to Werder Bremen.
The league has returned to competitiveness.
And the drama is restored.
Werder Bremen and Bayern Munich are two teams competing in the league and cup double-tier arena, whoever has a chance to win the double crown.
The league has progressed to the last third, and this is something to watch.
※※※
In a press conference after the semi-final, Hitzfeld made his ambitions known to reporters.
"I'm very happy that Bayern Munich has the chance to fight for the title again. We made too many mistakes in the first half of the season. But now everything has been solved and the team and I are back on track. What happens next? Let's wait and see!"
Hitzfeld is definitely not the kind of coach who likes to talk, he is relatively low-key.So it is rare for him to announce something so forcefully and domineeringly in front of the news media.
This time, he broke the routine, which shows that the pressure on him this season is really great.
Since he drove away Rong Guang, he has always been shrouded in various controversies and pressures.
When Rong Guang performed well at Werder Bremen, and Werder Bremen topped the table, many people were waiting to see Hitzfeld's jokes.
In the first half of the season, he has heard too many such taunts.
The old handsome also has a temper.
So he has been suffocating in his heart, wanting to prove himself again and show those who laugh at him!
He, Heathfield, is not dead yet!
