Conquest of Germany Chapter 327 You are number one in the world
The 2007/2008 Bundesliga season is nearing its sprint stage, with Bayern Munich leading the league, reaching the semi-finals of the German Cup and the quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup, with a good chance of lifting three trophies. [To read the latest chapters of this book, please search]
In such a situation, some media in Munich were in a good mood and even began to sing praises to the soon-to-be-retired captain in advance
On the 14th of March, the Munich Evening Post published an article thanking Kahn for his appearance. Among them, the strong reluctance is moving.
"This is Kahn's last season and we will never see that name in Bayern's squad again. Many people say that he is old, slow to react, and sluggish to move. They will say that he is no longer the lion king Karn he used to be, and they will say that he is no longer the number one in the world he used to be. But it doesn't matter, Ollie is still the greatest captain in the hearts of our Bayern fans
Kahn's performance this year was very 'colorful', and many of the performances even surprised us a little. Gradually, we find that he himself is changing. He's changed, after conceding the ball, he no longer glared at his teammates' mistakes, he didn't shout at their noses anymore, he changed, he had fewer and fewer off-field 'flowers', and at the same time, his appearance on the pitch was getting better and better: he had changed, he wouldn't play the ball again. Annoyed by the banana peel that the fan threw at him (in fact the unfriendly spectacle is almost extinct), he has changed, he has even become a little warm, although he will make some nonsensical remarks at certain moments, but most of the time he will be like a mascot in the team, everyone will joke with him, will play tricks on the old man with the 'flower' heart, and will also send him a sincere hug after the victory.
He is the big brother of all and a role model for all. In his final season, Oliver Kahn truly felt like he was: a legend.
If you ask me what it means to be a great player in the truest sense of the word, look no further than Kahn. ”
At the end of the article, the Munich man also wished Kahn the best of luck in leading Bayern Munich to a semi-final against Wolfsburg in the German Cup, and also reaching the final and lifting the German Cup trophy. For Bayern Munich fans, the trophy is undoubtedly the best gift for the veteran captain who is about to leave the field.

The Munich people are very warm, but they don't know that at this time, Bayern Munich's head coach Heathfield did not intend to start Kahn against Wolfsburg at the beginning, he intended to start the substitute 'goalkeeper' Rensing.
Speaking of which, Rensing is also a poor man, and it would be difficult for any 'goalkeeper' to be a substitute for Kahn. This season, Rensing is still used as a substitute for Kahn, the difference is that because Kahn is older and often has a small 'sexual' injury or some 'personal' matter that he can't play, he has a little more opportunities than before, but only a little. So far this season, Rensing has started a total of nine games, which is not bad. Although there are still rumors from time to time that Bayern is going to buy a certain 'goalkeeper' to play the main force in the future, the Munich senior management seems to be relatively satisfied with Rensing, the 'goalkeeper' trained by their own academy. The statement of the team's top management gave Rensing some confidence, and they said that the future Bayern's number one 'goal' will belong to Rensing.
Speaking of which, Lensing must not have a good feeling in his heart, looking at Adler, who is his contemporary, Neuer is now on the rise, and in comparison, Lensing's achievements seem much less 'colorful', of course, it seems that Lensing is about to come out, because Kahn is finally retiring.
Knowing that the head coach Heathfield will send himself to start in the semi-final of the German Cup with Wolfsburg, Rensing is also very happy, although this is only a cup match, but, because it is a semi-final, because the opponent is Wolfsburg, so Bayern Munich can be said to attach great importance to this game, so, in this case, the head coach chose to start him, which also shows the importance and trust in himself.
Rensing will even think that it was the last time the team lost at home to Wolfsburg, and Kahn boss was poured four goals by Yang Fan, so that Heathfield lost trust in Kahn, so he would give himself a chance?!
※※※※※※※
Don't say it, Rensing's guess is right, although Kahn's overall performance this season is still excellent, but, thinking that the opponent he is about to face is Wolfsburg, Heathfield is not very comfortable with Kahn, because, in the duel with Yang Fan, even at the Allianz Arena at home, the old Kahn's table can be said to be miserable, being scored three goals at a time, and scoring four goals at a time, which can be said to be a very humiliating 'sex' bad table.
Heathfield even had to wonder if Kahn had been scared by Yang Fan? Although such an idea is unfair to a veteran with outstanding achievements, it is no wonder that Heathfield is cranky as a head coach.
So, he decided to rest Kahn in this game and let Rensing play.
Kahn was told during a training break the next morning that he wouldn't be starting for the evening's game, and his face changed immediately.
However, Karn's temper was indeed a little more restrained now, he did not have a seizure on the spot, and he still trained seriously and as usual. Others didn't see any clues.
After practice, Kahn knocked on manager Heathfield's goal.
Heathfield has been in charge of Bayern Munich for many years, Kahn is his favorite protégé, and the relationship between the two has always been good. In 2003, when Kahn was criticized and questioned for his extramarital affairs, Heathfield resisted the pressure and 'supported' Kahn, and continued to give Kahn absolute trust.
It may be a little too much to say that these two people are like father and son, but the deep affection between the two is beyond doubt.
"Oliver, what are you looking for me?" Heathfield asked, a little surprised, when he saw Karn.
"Boss. "Today's game, I'm going to start. ”
Heathfield was stunned for a moment, his face became grim, he and Kahn had a good relationship, but one thing had to be clear, as a manager, his authority was unquestionable, not even Kahn.
However, Heathfield did not get angry immediately, he knew Kahn, although he was a little arrogant and 'dominant' within the team, but he still respected himself and should not be unreasonable.
"Tell me your reasoning, Oliver. Heathfield said.
"Yang Fan!" Karn said a name.
"Yang Fan?"
"Boss, I have to start, I'm going to retire this season, now, in the rest of the games, there are very few opportunities to meet Wolfsburg, because the opponent is Yang Fan, so the 'goalkeeper' he is facing, I hope it is me! I, Oliver, Kahn, have been playing for 20 years! I don't want to be knocked down by the same person several times in my last moments! Kahn is old, but old Kahn has the pride of old Kahn, and I hope I have been fighting! Kahn is not a coward. ”
"So, you're not sure you'll win him?" said Heathfield, moved, but still very sensible.
"That's right—" Karn nodded, but his eyes were full of fighting spirit, the old lion was still the 'Lion King'!
Just as Karn was thinking of saying something else to convince Heathfield, Heathfield spoke.
"Oh well. Heathfield patted Kahn on the shoulder, "Oliver, remember, you're number one in the world. ”
"I remember it all along. "This text is provided by If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the creation of a recommendation vote, a monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. )
