Chapter 128: Heavy Artillery Assist?!

Müller's shooting is world-class, his celebration is community-level.

He opened his arms, waved his fists, and bounced and jumped...

Lai Wan picked up the ball and ran back to the centre circle.

Beep! Beep-beep~

The referee blew the whistle signalling the end of the first half!

"In the first half, with two players injured, no injury time was added!"

"The Bundesliga referee team is the most punctual among the top five leagues!"

"Let's take a short break, now we go to advertising time! A well-known sports brand reminds you: take protective measures, shooting without panic..."

After equalising,

The away fans' mood relaxed.

Bayern Munich never lacks a good comeback story.

Wolfsburg, who conceded five goals in nine minutes, knows this feeling well.

After the halftime whistle, the home stands quickly emptied.

Since the BayArena implemented the **regulation** in 2009, old fans could only grab the rest interval to run outside and puff clouds.

Lewokusen locker room.

Dino meticulously reviewed the tactical details of the first half.

Tuopu Laotou sat in the corner, arms crossed over his chest, expression solemn.

He felt there was nothing to say for the moment.

Facing Guardiola's Bayern, not making adjustments is the best adjustment.

Li Kang wiped his sweat with a dry towel, chewing on Green Tangerine Fizzy Candy.

He realised that playing against coaches of the 'restraint' system always feels easy, after all, the core of their tactical philosophy is the same.

Although he couldn't understand Guardiola's Bayern's changes, he similarly felt no great pressure.

Bellarabi whispered: "Hakan, are you still going to Serie A? Over there the locker room has a jacuzzi, a masseur..."

Calhanolu's old face turned red as he interrupted: "Lewokusen still needs me!"

Bayern Munich locker room.

Guardiola returned to normal: "Sit down! Drink water! Relax!"

His hands quickly moved the little magnetic pieces on the tactics board.

"Lewokusen has given up high pressing in the front."

"Their players only make tackles in the thirty-metre zone."

"When we advance into the half-space, the speed of positional rotation needs to be faster! Faster!"

"..."

Moments later.

The Bayern head coach finally stopped, letting everyone seize the time to rest.

The players' mood was very relaxed.

To them, Lewokusen's defence is not much different from Wolfsburg's last season.

Assistant coach Torrent shouted at Vidal: "You need to contain Lewokusen's number 10..."

The latter remained silent.

Saying it is easy.

What can we use to restrict him?

In the first half I clashed head-on with that kid once, and I almost had to take an early holiday!

The fifteen-minute halftime break ended quickly.

Both teams' players returned to the pitch.

When a chubby figure stepped onto the green pitch,

Both sets of fans gave warm applause.

"Good evening, friends, welcome back!"

"Bayern Munich made a substitution, bringing on Gotze for Costa!"

"Last year's German World Cup-winning hero, we expect his performance in the second half!"

"Will Li Kang and Gotze form a dialogue in the upcoming match?"

Accompanied by the referee's whistle.

The second half officially began!

Lewokusen possession.

Kiessling kicked off and passed back to Li Kang.

Both teams' formations quickly overlapped.

After a few passes, the ball arrived at Calhanolu's feet.

He hadn't even settled the ball yet.

With a slap!

The advancing Alonso easily completed the tackle!

"Calhanolu went down, no problem, not a foul!"

"Nice!"

"Gotze!"

Bayern's attack-defense transition speed is very fast.

Alonso's motion had no hesitation, delivering an imaginative through pass.

The ball clung to the turf, darting to the left flank, instantly tearing through Lewokusen's left-side defense!

Gotze surged forward, nudging the ball ahead!

Their two touches formed an extremely sharp offensive!

Tuopu Laotou was nervously agitated.

Guardiola jumped up excitedly.

Bayern fans cheered and leapt with joy.

"As soon as Gotze came on, he changed the situation."

"A miraculous substitution..."

Hilbert frantically tracked back; though not fast, he easily blocked the German hero's position!

The ball rolled out over the baseline.

He felt somewhat incredulous about his own performance: how did the German hero become so terrible?

Gotze spat, then gave Alonso a thumbs-up.

-【Tank-type forward!】

-【His World Cup final goal exhausted all his luck.】

-【Don't mock him; Gotze's slump is due to a strange illness, and this season he has gradually adapted to Guardiola's tactical system.】

The match continued.

Calhanoglu and Gotze completed a one-two.

One couldn't hold onto the ball.

The other also couldn't hold onto the ball.

Lewokusen's defense became increasingly easy.

Gotze once was near-ball-king level, with not only superb footwork but also very rich imagination in ball handling.

But now he is plagued by a strange illness, as if hit with a debuff negative effect.

The marking Hilbert doesn't need to think much; using experience and physique he can easily crush him.

Alonso wanted to shift the attack to the right flank.

But Gotze's positioning sense and game-reading ability remain top-notch!

He always can at the right moment complete a positional rotation, link up with teammates, then kick the ball away!

62nd minute of the match.

Alonso lofted a pass into the box!

Lai Nuo headed it for a flick-on!

After Muller received the ball in the box, he laid it off to the better-placed Gotze!

Thud!

Gotze the little fatty faced the empty goal, assuming a perfect shooting posture!

He then blasted a high shot!

The whole stadium sighed.

"He didn't score from an open goal!"

"We saw Lai Nuo laughing as he patted Gotze's head."

"Gotze last season still managed an excellent record of 10 goals and 9 assists!"

"This season he's declined across the board!"

At the pitchside.

Guardiola stomped his foot in anger.

Many think he ruined the German golden boy.

But Bayern's head coach put in much effort, still failing to find a fitting point to fully unleash Gotze's ability.

On the other side.

Dino wore an expression of disbelief: "Boss, was Gotze's childhood dream team Lewokusen? Could he even kick this ball away?"

Tuopu Laotou spoke in a heavy tone, lamenting: "His decline is a misfortune for German football."

Lai Nuo kicked off a long goal kick.

The ball fell near the midfield circle!

Klasni leapt in place, flicking the ball toward Li Kang's direction!

Vidal marked Li Kang's position.

Li Kang stepped with his left foot, stepping over Bayern's beastly midfielder's waist, and laid the ball off.

Again forcing the shadow in the brain to spread, all attributes gained a slight boost!

The True Eye's black mist grew ever denser!

Vidal immediately counter-pressed!

His thick, dark thighs stepped toward the ball.

His well-developed, protruding pectorals pressed toward Lewokusen's number 10!

The wind was bitterly cold.

The two felt each other's warm body heat.

Close-range audio equipment transmitted a burst of intense flesh-on-flesh sound!

Li Kang pulled the ball back with his left foot.

Then fiercely turned around!

Bidaer staggered and fell onto the grass!

No hesitation.

The mental shadow tightened, attributes returned to normal.

Li Kang quickly advanced with the ball!

"Who exactly is the beast?"

"His physical confrontation ability is too strong!"

"A midfielder who can hold the ball and complete progression in a high-intensity match is already remarkable!"

Near the center circle.

Gotze, Muller, and Alaba simultaneously surrounded Li Kang!

Most of Bayern's midfield defensive strength was drawn over!

In God's perspective.

Bayern

Li Kang had already found the most suitable passing lane!

He was observing the change in Alaba's center of gravity!

At the moment the opponent kicked.

The ball broke through the layers of encirclement and lightly leapt toward the right flank.

"Nice!"

"The gap on the right flank has opened!"

"Guardiola-style Bayern's formation changes are rich; Alaba and Lahm became double defensive midfielders; Alonso dropped back, forming three center backs!"

"Li Kang seems to be playing by seizing this change!"

The whole world is studying Guardiola.

Duanxuan and He Wei naturally also looked into related data reports.

Praising Li Kang is just the wind vane; you won't be wrong!

Brandt has been waiting on the right flank for a long time!

Upon receiving the ball, he couldn't help but secretly marvel: Li's long pass seems to feel much more comfortable when stopped?

A burst forward!

Brandt the fat turned into a sharp dagger, piercing Bayern's right flank defense!

When he debuted, German media unanimously believed: his playing style is very similar to Gotze's!

Amazing ball-handling ability!

Rich imagination!

But in their growth process, the two took different paths yet ended up becoming Xiao Pang.

Lewokusen's midfield and forward players frantically sprinted!

Bayern players quickly retreated to defend!

Too late!

Brandt brought the ball to the right side of the edge of the penalty area!

"Is he going to cut inside?"

"Benatia!"

Benatia had his hands behind his back, blocking in front of Lewokusen's winger!

Brandt didn't panic, hooked the ball with his right foot!

Smack!

Bayern center-back's long legs poked the ball out from under Brandt's crotch!

The fans were stunned!

-【Who is this Benatia? I've never seen him before!】

-【A product of Serie A, bound to be excellent, the optimal solution for high-pressure defending! Transferred over this summer.】

-【The biggest drawback is that he gets injured every match... came to our team to heal.】

Brandt was also dazed!

He didn't expect Bayern's unfamiliar center-back's tackling ability to be so monstrous.

The direction of the opponent's tackle is hard to predict.

"The crisis hasn't been resolved!"

"Bolresi received the ball!"

"No chance for a lateral breakthrough! Alaba also came back to defend, can only go along the baseline!"

Bolresi quickly brought the ball near the baseline.

He was a bit restless.

His personal ability is two tiers below Bayern's players; hesitating will lose possession!

We must seize the time to observe teammates' runs!

No!

It's Li Kang's run!

Found it!

Before Alaba could get close!

Borges sent out a reverse triangle pass!

The ball clung to the turf, sweeping past Benatia's back.

It rolled to the outside of the penalty arc!

Li Kang shook off Vidal again!

In his view, the silhouette of a young colt suddenly appeared!

And there was the illusion of the black-clad number 13!

Ballack!

Bayern fans couldn't help but exclaim in amazement!

Guardiola's hands unconsciously clung to the bald head again!

Dino and Tuopu Laotou stared intently at the ball's trajectory!

「Good chance! 」

「Li Kang's long-range shot! 」

On the pitch.

Vidal's pulling and tugging couldn't stop the advance of Lewokusen's number 10!

Li Kang met the ball.

His body leaned.

He lifted his left foot.

With tremendous force!

Bang!

A booming explosion echoed through the night sky!

Made Noerin's expression turn grave a bit!

The ball was like a thunderclap!

Fierce and domineering!

Momentum like a rainbow!

Howling!

Spinning!

Booming toward Bayern Munich's goal!

Smack!

Accompanied by a terrifying crisp sound!

A tall, dark silhouette blocked this long-range heavy shot with his buttocks!

「Boateng! 」

「He achieved redemption! 」

「No! 」

The spin Li Kang applied was too strong!

The trajectory of the arcing heavy shot slightly deviated!

Flew toward the end line!

In the frame, another tall figure appeared before everyone's reputation!

Belalabi!

This guy had already lurked in Bayern's goal area.

Facing the oncoming dark shadow!

He instinctively wanted to dodge!

But he couldn't dodge it!

Smack!

Another crisp sound!

The ball slammed hard into his face!

The trajectory of the arcing heavy shot shifted again!

Boomed into the near corner of Bayern's goal!

Noerin, who was on guard, stared dumbfounded, with no chance to make a divine save.

Damn it, this heavy shot curved twice!

3:1!

!

Bayern Arena, at this moment it boiled over!

「Beautiful! 」

「This ball went in! 」

「Li Kang delivered a splendid pass, and Belalabi's header scored! 」

「Boateng gave it his all! His blocking timing was perfect! Bad luck, the ball wasn't cleared out of the penalty area... but instead became an assist for Lewokusen to score! 」

「Unbelievable, Lewokusen holds a two-goal lead in this Bundesliga showdown! 」

「Bayern needs to hurry up! 」

Belalabi didn't celebrate right away.

Strictly speaking, it's impossible to celebrate.

On his braised-egg-like face, a large red mark appeared, and nosebleed poured out.

The head referee quickly called for the team doctor to come onto the field!

The team doctors rushed toward Boateng immediately!

They pulled down his pants to take a look.

They helplessly shook their heads and sighed.

"Very red! Very swollen! Very black... uh... it was already black!"

"Can't continue the match!"

Boateng wanted to cry but had no tears; he exerted all his strength, and at the moment Li Kang lifted his leg to kick, he lunged to block the shot!

Yet he still couldn't change the fact that a goal was conceded!

Bayern teammates gathered around him, constantly comforting him.

At the sideline.

Tuopu Laotou and Dino wanted to celebrate, but felt something was missing.

"Boss, Bellarabi probably can't continue the match; we have no one available up front!"

"What about Havertz? Where is he? Where did he go warming up?"

The other side.

Guardiola squatted on the ground, his gaze vacant.

Originally thought it would be a peak battle of wits, the La Masia inheritance showdown...

Why were all three conceded goals so dramatic?

The livestream.

The big screen replayed the goal moment.

Danmaku flew across.

-【Heavy cannon assist? Li Mingdeng is awesome!】

-【Bundesliga's conscience, is this the close-up I can see for free? Boateng's butt got blasted swollen! Brutal!】

-【Not a big problem, human buttocks have strong protective ability; for this level of injury, as long as it hasn't split open, lying down for two days will heal it!】

-【Boateng is very capable; ordinary center backs really can't react in time, it's just too unlucky! Logically this ball should have been bounced out!】

-【Most of those who drown are people who can swim.】

-【Bellarabi scored with a header? Is this guy's motion meant to head the ball? Obviously he was trying to dodge it!】

-【Li Mingdeng is even more of a threat to Bayern than last year's De Bruyne! Two shots, one assist!】

Li Kang also felt surprised by the trajectory of that heavy cannon shot.

He ran over to check on the conditions of the two injured.

For a moment he didn't know how to comfort them, so he imitated No Yin Er, rubbing their little braised-egg faces.

After simple treatment.

Bellarabi and Boateng were carried off the field on stretchers.

The ball was placed back on the center circle.

The match resumed.

"Leverkusen made their first substitution adjustment, Havertz came on for Bellarabi!"

"On Bayern Munich's side, the youngster Kimmich came on for Boateng!"

"He is a youngster who transferred from Red Bull Salzburg in this summer window! Only 20 years old!"

"Strictly speaking, Stuttgart activated the buy-back clause, allowing him to join Bayern!"

"The future of German football! A genius right-back!"

"No problem, Lahm and Alaba can fill the central defensive positions!"

Kimmich is a bit nervous; he still isn't really adapting to Guardiola's coaching style.

In past matches, while playing, he always ended up shifting to the defensive midfield position.

Guardiola shook his hands.

Looking at the LED scoreboard above the BayArena.

He realized that the time left for him was not much.
