? Genius remembers "" in one second, providing you with wonderful novels to read.

In addition to the media in Munich, the media in other regions were also frightened by Bayern Munich's terrifying performance. They all believed that with Bayern Munich's state, even if Dortmund has been chasing after them, it is very likely that they will be defeated in the end. He could only watch his opponent win the championship with a two-point difference. 【】Zhou Yi said very well, be yourself, but if Bayern Munich does not make mistakes, it will be meaningless no matter how well Dortmund does.

Some media believe that with Bayern Munich's current state, when Dortmund and Bayern Munich have a direct dialogue, even if Dortmund has the home advantage, it may be difficult to stop Bayern Munich. As long as Bayern Munich can draw with Dortmund on the road, it will be considered a victory.

For a time, everyone in Germany, except for Dortmund, believed that there was no suspense about the league championship this season. It would be unreasonable for Bayern Munich to fail to win the championship in the end. !

So how did the Dortmund media report on Bayern Munich's performance?

Of course they won't exaggerate Bayern Munich's terrifying strength. What they do is "find faults" - even if your Bayern Munich performance is good, it is not perfect and has shortcomings. Even if it is a slight shortcoming, we will give you a pick. Come out and zoom in.

First of all, they believe that Bayern Munich's performance is not flawless. Of course, this must be true. If they just say "Bayern Munich still has problems", it means saying nothing and can only be despised.

The Dortmund media really came up with useful information.

While almost all of Germany was applauding Bayern Munich's excellent form, the Dortmund media calmly pointed out Bayern Munich's problem - their poor corner kick defense.

In fact, Bayern Munich's defense this season is very good. After 27 rounds of league play, they have only conceded a total of 13 goals.

This kind of performance is not only the best in the Bundesliga, but also the best in Europe - in the entire Europe, they are also the team that conceded the fewest goals in the same period.

In La Liga, the team that conceded the fewest goals in the 27th round of the league is Atletico Madrid. They also conceded 24 goals. This is the result of their having Sun Pan.

In Serie A, the team that has conceded the fewest goals after twenty-seven rounds is Bayern Munich's next opponent in the Champions League quarter-finals, Juventus. They have conceded eighteen goals after twenty-seven league rounds.

At the end of the 27th round of the Premier League, Manchester City, which was ranked second at the time, had conceded 24 goals.

The leader has conceded the fewest goals after 27 rounds of French Ligue 1.

Seventeen goals conceded.

This is the situation in the five major leagues. Ligue 1 is the team that conceded the fewest goals except Bayern Munich, which all conceded 17 goals. Such a foil from peers can further highlight Bayern Munich's outstanding defensive performance.

Among other leagues, in the Portuguese Super League, the team that has conceded the fewest goals is Porto. They have only conceded 11 goals, fewer than Bayern Munich. But considering that the Portuguese Super League has only had thirty rounds in total, and has only played twenty-four rounds so far, Porto has conceded 11 goals in the twenty-fourth round, which is three league rounds less than Bayern Munich. And how many goals did Bayern Munich concede in the twenty-fourth round of the league?

Eight, single digits!

So, if you have to find fault with Bayern Munich, it seems most unwise to blame the defense.

But the Dortmund media just talked about defense.

It's just that they added a qualification - defense in the corner kick.

And if you take a closer look at their analysis, it does make some sense.

In the 9:2 slaughter of Hamburg, although Bayern Munich scored nine goals, they also conceded two goals. How did they concede these two goals?

All from corners.

Hamburg, which was suppressed throughout the game, had only ten shots in total, of which only three hit the goal frame. Bayern Munich, on the other hand, had as many as 22 shots within the goal frame, and only five missed shots, 27 to 10. The huge gap between the two sides in the game can only rely on this technical statistic. You can know a little bit about it.

With such a huge disadvantage, Hamburg only received three corner kicks in the entire game. Among these three corner kicks, two goals occurred. This kind of efficiency is speechless...

If it were just this one game, then the criticism and accusations from the Dortmund media would really seem to be nitpicking.

But the thing is, this isn't the only corner kick Bayern Munich has conceded recently.

The two corner kicks conceded in this game were the third and fourth corner kicks Bayern Munich conceded in the last three official games.

Ever since the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals against Arsenal, Bayern, which has a solid defensive performance this season, has begun to constantly expose its own problem: fear of corner kicks.

In the Champions League match against Arsenal at home, Bayern Munich had the advantage throughout the game, but conceded a point from a corner kick before the end of the game. Koscielny's header once brought the visiting team hope of promotion. After the game, Bayern Munich also was criticized. But just a week later, Heynckes' team once again lost points due to corner kicks in the game against Leverkusen. This time the team's problem seemed very amateurish, and the team did not even have any arrangements for corner kick defense. Someone to protect the back door pillar!

The two goals conceded against Hamburg this time all came from corner kicks.

Hamburg's first corner kick of the game resulted in a goal.

Van der Vaart accurately found Bruma in the penalty area. Dante made a mistake while marking and gave his opponent an easy chance to score with a header. Brufon's header from close range left Neuer helpless. After conceding the ball, Boateng jumped in anger, which fully demonstrated that he was dissatisfied with the way the ball was conceded.

It stands to reason that there was a problem in the defense during the corner kick. Bayern Munich players should be alerted in the next corner kick defense, right? No, Hamburg's second corner kick resulted in another goal. The strong and tall Westermann was not disturbed at all in the corner kick, because the person Bayern Munich arranged to defend him was Toni Kroos... The header was not outstanding, and Kroos, who was not physically strong at all, was in the penalty area. When fighting for position, he was no match for Westerman, and was easily thrown away by the opponent.

So far this season, Bayern Munich, which has only conceded 23 goals in all official games combined, has conceded five goals in the last three games, and four of these five goals were corner kicks.

Through these numbers, you should be able to know how abnormal the recent consecutive corner kick losses are for Bayern Munich, right?

Of course, when the Dortmund media reported on Bayern Munich's corner kick defensive issues, they did not say that they were speaking out for Dortmund, but they were using the guise of asking Bayern Munich to pay attention to this issue in the next Champions League game. It seemed very upright. Guangming, who can’t see the calculation behind it?

In their reports, they mentioned again and again the next Champions League quarter-finals and Bayern Munich's opponent Juventus, and even explicitly told Bayern Munich to be careful about this weakness being exploited by Juventus.

What’s the purpose of this? Can’t a discerning person see it?

Just tell Juventus directly that this is a little gift from us.

Moreover, the Dortmund media also mentioned last season's final. How did Bayern Munich end up being killed by Chelsea despite leading the game? Isn't it just a corner kick at the last moment of the game? Drogba grabbed the ball ahead of him and pushed it in.

This shows that there is a precedent for Bayern Munich to suffer from corner kicks in the Champions League.

Losing the Champions League final on their own doorstep is a scar for Bayern Munich. Dortmund's move is to reopen Bayern Munich's scar and sprinkle some salt and pepper on them.

It stands to reason that the German media should unanimously report foreign wars like the Champions League, but Dortmund's media instead helps Juventus with ideas. This is absolutely "politically incorrect." But the Dortmund media did just that.

And in addition to giving Bayern Munich a surprise against their Champions League rivals, they also sow discord, claiming that Bayern Munich has performed so perfectly under the leadership of coach Heynckes this season. This is certainly worthy of joy, but for Heynck, who is about to take over For Guardiola, this may not be good news.

When Bayern Munich announced that Guardiola would take over as the team's head coach next season, everyone was dissatisfied with Bayern Munich's loss to Dortmund in the league championship in the previous two seasons. They hoped that Guardiola could lead Bayern Munich to a new direction. Back to the top, there is an implicit dissatisfaction with Heynckes' work.

The results of it?

After the news was announced half a season in advance, Heynckes' Bayern Munich played better and better. In the first half of the season, they were equalized by Dortmund at their home court. In the second half of the season, they did not lose at all.

The performance of Heynckes' team is like a protest against the Bayern Munich club's senior management for announcing Guardiola's appointment half a season in advance - although everyone, including Heynckes himself, denies it This statement, but this phenomenon does lend itself well to conspiracy theories…

Therefore, the Dortmund media are desperately promoting Heynckes' outstanding performance at this moment. At the same time, when Guardiola takes over the team on time, most Bayern Munich players may still miss Heynckes. Maybe Bayern Munich is not like this at all, but lies repeated a thousand times become truth. As long as the Dortmund media keeps encouraging and shouting like this, they might lead Bayern Munich into trouble?

This is just like the Munich media's constant hype that Dortmund received too much special care from the referee.

The power of public opinion is very powerful.

From affecting the court to affecting ordinary people, the influence is everywhere, pervasive, and moisturizing things silently. The people affected do not feel that they have been controlled by public opinion.

※※※

From claiming that Dortmund suffered from the referee's care, to offering advice to Bayern Munich's Champions League opponents, to sowing discord between Bayern Munich's two previous coaches, the competition between the two teams has been so fierce this season that they are trying to defeat each other. , supporters of both sides are trying every possible means to stumble the other side, using all possible means.

It's hard to say who is right and who is wrong. This kind of thing is not the first between Dortmund and Bayern Munich, nor is it an isolated case.
