If there is any team that is the most terrifying in the Bundesliga right now, it is not Bayern Munich, nor Werder Bremen, not Stuttgart, but this Schalke 04 under Mirko Slomka.

Schalke 04 was founded on 4 May 1904, hence the name of the club. Schalke 04 Club has a very simple slogan called "One for all, all for one". It's like the old coal miners in Gelsenkirchen, the Ruhr industrial region where the team is based, simple and united. And that's the kind of spirit that the team needs most at the moment. The team's goal this season is to win the Bundesliga title, and a team that lacks cohesion and unity will not be able to win the title. After the harrowing memories of the 2001 season of 'four minutes', Schalke has never been more united than this season, and their hunger for a silver plate in the Bundesliga has never been stronger.

The so-called 'four-minute champion' refers to the final round of the 2001 German Bundesliga, when Hamburg scored in the 90th minute of Bayern Munich's match against Hamburg, and if this score is maintained until the end, Schalke 04 will win the Bundesliga title that year. However, in stoppage time, Bayern Munich won the Bundesliga title by holding Hamburg to a draw with a free-kick goal. It is also the closest Schalke 04 has come to winning the Bundesliga.

In the face of such a Schalke 04 team aiming for the championship, the Wolfsburgers felt that they were no opponent at all, and they had a sense of powerlessness.

This feeling of powerlessness is contagious, and when one person comes out, more people are affected by it. Finding that they were not opponents at all, they began to give up, to give up resistance. Then, thinking about it, the opponent is the leader who is in the limelight now, and it doesn't seem shameful to lose to Schalke 04, and when they think about it like this, they feel that it doesn't matter if they lose. If Wolfsburg wants to get enough points for relegation, the target is teams like Mainz and Bielefeld, not strong teams like Schalke 04, and the double kill of Bayern Munich is enough to make some players proud for a long time.

Yang Fan was stopped by several Chinese reporters as he passed through the mixed zone, and his attitude towards these compatriots from afar was still good, although the current situation of the team in the first half made him not feel good.

For these Chinese journalists, although Wolfsburg is now behind in the score, in the first half of the game, Yang Fan scored a goal, and they were very happy. To put it mildly, they don't care too much about Wolfsburg's results, as long as Yang Fan is excellent.

In this way, because of the interview, Yang Fan was delayed a little time, he was the last to return to the locker room, pushed the door in, and felt a kind of 'indifferent' aura coming to his face, and even made him feel that he was in the wrong place- Wolfsburg had such an atmosphere before, and that was during the game against Eintracht Frankfurt, but after Yang Fan came off the bench and turned the tide with a hat-trick, especially after the subsequent away win over Bayern Munich, the frustration that had surrounded the relegation team was gone. ()

In the first half, the whole team's table was very bad, and a goal was also a sneak attack. Yang Fan thought that when he returned to the locker room, he would see the depressed looks of his teammates, but as soon as he came in, he saw that everyone was busy, some were listening to music, some were tidying up their hairstyles, and some were chatting loudly. It's not at all like the dressing room of a team that is two goals down in the half and completely passive.

Is this really the team's dressing room? Are you sure this isn't the dressing room of Schalke 04 who belong to the leading side?

There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and it was their opponents, several Schalke 04 players, cheerfully and loudly chattering, passing by the door of the dressing room in Wolfsburg and turning into the visiting team's lounge.

Obviously, Schalke 04 are in a good mood, which can also be understood as they think that this game, the victory is in their hands.

The laughter of Schalke 04 people deepened the stimulation of Yang Fan.

"I said, why aren't you in a hurry! In the locker room, a voice suddenly rang out.

Everyone looked up in surprise and looked at the person who spoke...... Yang Fan stood up suddenly, and he finally couldn't help but speak.

He stood up and continued to shout to his teammates: "Did you just give up the game? Don't forget that we killed Bayern Munich away from home! Are you afraid of Schalke 04?"

"It's not that I'm afraid!, it's the opponent in this game, not the one we are going to score points against. Captain Hovlan looked at Yang Fan, who was a little angry, and said helplessly.

"Yes, the strength of our team obviously does not have the conditions to fight hard with every opponent. A team like Schalke 04 is not something we can win with all our might, we have to build up our strength and be ready to play against important opponents. Someone followed.

"I know, I know what you mean. However, I don't think so. Yang Fan waved his fist and said, "I don't think we should divide the opponent into three, six, nine, and so on, I think that we can win some teams, and some of them have to give up! Have you forgotten the game against Bayern Munich? That game, didn't we spell it out? If we also give up the game like today, how can we have that victory?!"

As the youngest player in the team, Yang Fan has always given people a very optimistic and cheerful image, always smiling, everyone has never seen him angry, and now looking at this angry young man, everyone is shocked and doesn't understand why he is so angry. As a team that is fighting for relegation, there is nothing to make a fuss about when it comes to playing against the leaders.

"I'll tell you. Yang Fan gasped, "That's what I think, no matter who the opponent is, no matter how strong he is, but I won't admit defeat in advance! I won't be willing to fight without real struggle! That's right, I like to win, but this is not to say that I can't accept defeat, the important thing is that even if I fail, I have no regrets! Because I have been fighting at the end! Anyway, I won't admit defeat like this! I don't care what you will do in the second half, but I will continue to look for goals in the second half!" I'm going to show the Schalkes, they want to get the three points, have you asked my opinion?"

After Yang Fan said this, he sat on the seat angrily, sulking alone. The atmosphere of the team made him very unhappy, he was still young, young and vigorous, what to say, he felt uncomfortable, he had to vent, he had to shout out, as for whether this would be the most teammate, where would he think so much at this time.

Everyone looked at the young man who had just suddenly burst into flames.

"That's good!!" Madelen, who has been silent, jumped out, and he was already unhappy with everyone's attitude of 'admitting defeat', but he was also a newcomer who had only transferred to the team for less than a season, and felt that he had no right to speak, and he was easy to make trouble with his teammates, so he never spoke, but now, hearing Yang Fan say this, seeing that he had a comrade-in-arms, Madelen stood up, and he was affected by this much younger than himself. While the words of the young people with younger qualifications were encouraged, they couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, feeling that they were not as brave as Yang Fan, not as brave as Yang Fan, and dared to do and speak.

"Schalke 04 is the leader, so what!" Madelen continued, "I don't think we have the right to choose our opponents! Wouldn't it be better if we had a point that we couldn't have in the eyes of many people?!

Captain Hovlan looked at this scene, and he suddenly felt a little ashamed, feeling that as the captain of the team, he was not even as good as a young man. As the captain, shouldn't you stand up and cheer for the team and encourage the whole team to continue fighting at this time?

He slapped his face, drawing everyone's attention to himself.

"Yang is right, guys. Hovland saw everyone looking at him, and then said, "Yes, a game is a game, we don't have the qualifications to choose an opponent, for us, when facing every opponent, we have to go all out and try to get enough points as soon as possible! If possible, I don't think anyone wants to be desperate for relegation in the final stage of the league, worrying about the future of themselves and the team." ”

Seeing that someone stood up to support Yang Fan, and then, the captain also stood up and spoke, some players who originally felt very faceless and unhappy after shouting loudly at Yang Fan, a small character, really began to think about what they said just now. Someone began to show a thoughtful expression.

The locker room became quieter and a little eerie, but if you look closely, you'll notice the difference. The atmosphere in the dressing room has changed, at the very least, they don't have a 'don't care' attitude anymore, they don't go boring to do their own things anymore, but they start to think, think about what the rookie said, think about the second half of the game.

Organthaler was outside the locker room, just now, he was about to push the door in, when he heard Yang Fan speak loudly, and quickly grabbed assistant coach Ryder, looking at the assistant's surprised inquiring eyes, Organthaler pointed inside, "Don't go in first, listen." ”

Ryder was a little surprised, but nodded.

At this point, the locker room was quiet again. Ryder pushed the door in again, and Augenthaler shook his head again.

'Wait a minute, I'll have to think about the second half. Augenthaler laughed, "That kid said everything I had to say, what else do I say?" for the first half of the team's table. Augenthaler was furious. The scene was passive, which did not surprise him, but the team's attitude towards the game on the field made him angry, maybe the fans didn't see it, but, as the head coach, he could see at a glance that these players had already conceded defeat in advance, and they thought that they were not the opponents of Schalke 04, so they surrendered in advance, and they would comfort themselves, saying that they wanted to retain their strength and prepare for future games.

Augenthaler was so angry that he could accept losing, but he couldn't accept his team losing in this way. A team must have strong willpower and the spirit of not admitting defeat.

Now, he suddenly has more expectations for the second half of the game, especially if he wants to see Yang Fan's watch, can this young man still create a surprise?
