Hannover (CNN) – Congratulations to the 25th championship, no one wanted to accept at Bayern Munich. The champions too was after the lackluster 3: 1 (1: 1) at Hannover 96 and further grown point cushion at VfL Wolfsburg already dealt with the Champions League
“The. is a final, we have to win, “said Bayern coach Pep Guardiola to major quarter-finals on Wednesday against Shakhtar Donetsk. That the Second Bundesliga Wolfsburg after the defeat in Augsburg definitively is not a serious competitor more, little interest there. Also Matthias Sammer dodged the issue. “I was always bad in times past,” the sporting director said when asked if he would ever make a hook at the 25th title of Bavaria and rather reminiscent of Donetsk. “We need to get a top performance, it is a very very tough game. “
Already on Wednesday, the eleven-point lead over Wolfsburg could feel just like a consolation prize. After the lean 0: 0 in the first leg Bayern are under pressure. Such a portly performance as the ailing 96-team Guardiola’s team can not afford against the Ukrainians. “We know what we need to do,” said the coach and named what needs to be better against Donetsk: “.. You have strikers who are very, very quickly, we must not let them run”
This is exactly what caused the Bayern defense in Hanover, namely a few times. The champions were lucky that 96 currently seems to be very busy in the face of Sieglos series of eight games with yourself to take advantage of this over on Saturday. Guide 1 by Xabi Alonso (28) and Thomas Müller (61. / penalty) questionable referee interpretations
What can happen in Bavaria designed for dominance of play when the team in a fast footballers: There were before 1. at a higher level than the hits of Hannover, you could at 0: 4 against Real Madrid last Champions League quarter-finals and the 1: 4 in Wolfsburg see in January. “We are humble and know that this is a dangerous opponent,” said Sammer, but added: “. We are ready”
As a measure of Donetsk also Guardiola wanted the game in Hanover, where he Franck Ribery, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Robert Lewandowski First Reserve left on the bench and spared not apply leave. “The defense of Donetsk is completely different from that of Hanover. Hanover’s zone defense and Shakhtar’s Marking” analyzed the Catalans. Problem, however, does not seem the offensive, in which a genius flash one of the top individuals is always possible. As before deciding to 3:
On the problem on the defensive instead defender Dante developed, consisting of 1 in Hannover, when substitute Ribéry showed his skills and Müller’s second goal (72 ‘) strongly prepared. tactical reasons, had to leave the field after a good 30 minutes and then worked badly bent. “This is obviously extremely bitter. But it was not about him, but simply that we have taken a back out because we are extremely difficult to have done,” reported double-scorer Müller.
What unmentioned remained: Guardiola decided not exactly no reason for the extremely poor Brazilians and not for one of his side people Jerome Boateng and Holger Badstuber. When 0: 1 by Hiroshi Kiyotake (25) patzte Dante. Even before the for some time criticized former Gladbach had some weak scenes. Did not want to say something self Dante. For all other talking about him. “We should now open no barrel, but see to it that we all stand to Wednesday behind FC Bayern,” said about Mueller. And again it was all about Shakhtar Donetsk.
