PORTO – Big surprise at the Dragao stadium in Porto and Bayern Monaco. The Andalusians of Lopetegui find the perfect evening and exceed 3-1 samples of Germany, hardly predictable result on the eve. Quaresma (twice) and Jackson Martinez’s goals for the hosts, for the Bavarian network of Thiago Alcantara, seasonal debut in the Champions League.
THE CHRONICLE. BAYERN, START CHOC – Lopetegui recovers Martins Indi in defense and relaunches Jackson Martinez in the middle of the trident. Guardiola also relies on the 4-3-3, but has to deal with the heavy absences are out, in fact, Robben, Ribery, Schweinsteiger and Alaba. In central defense Boateng and Lahm deployed on the line of midfielders. Emotions come within seconds after kickoff: Xabi Alonso naively loses the ball to a corner, Jackson Martinez is skilled to steal it and fly away in the area, Neuer knocks him down and the penalty is sacrosanct. From the spot the former Inter goalkeeper Ricardo Quaresma struck the German, booked for the foul penalty although the hosts asked the red. Not enough, spend a few minutes and get another omelette by Bayern: Dante falls asleep in handling the ball, Quaresma is shrewd to carpirla and fly away alone to Neuer, coolly beating the goalkeeper. Not even 10 minutes have passed and the Port is already 2-0.
THE RESPONSE OF ALCANTARA – Quaresma is uncontrollable and with a spectacular lob in midfield attorney’s admonition Bernat. But then Bayern reacts and starts forcing her to the door of Fabiano. A relaunch guests thinks Thiago Alcantara, who takes advantage of a great cross from the right Boateng, veil of Gotze and former Barcelona realizes his first goal in the Champions League, proving themselves behind the many months in the pits due to injury. At 34 ‘, however Neuer threatens the duck on a tricky cross-shot Alex Sandro from the left: the German goalkeeper misses the exit time and is graced by the crossbar. Before the break off Casemiro headed in a free kick by Quaresma, but without frame the door.
STUNT JACKSON MARTINEZ – In the second half Bayern increases possession of the ball, but does not create special occasions. After a quarter of an hour a matte Gotze gives way to Rode, who immediately tries a shot from distance, but Fabiano defended well in goal. Then the home side the net on a cross from Danilo, where Boateng Herrera is likely to anticipate the own goal and Neuer this time performs a miracle with a big reflection. But at 20 ‘yet another defensive error to guests: a ball towards the defense of Sandro, Boateng hole resoundingly the header, the ball comes to Jackson Martinez, from striker to race, jump Neuer and bags from a tight angle. Dragao stadium explodes with joy for the third time.
ATTACKS ROOMS, ADMONITIONS HEAVY – Guardiola has the short bench and a few cards to play. Muller disappears from the game, the more dangerous it is Bernat the left, but on his cross dominate head Maicon and Martins Indi. Few opportunities and many admonitions: heavy those of fullbacks Danilo and Alex Sandro who were warned and will miss the second leg, scheduled for next Tuesday. Guardiola hopes to recover some key pawn (Robben and Ribery on all) for a comeback is not impossible, but very difficult. Especially if there are gifts like those seen at the Dragao.
