Eintracht Frankfurt fans have been quite proud of themselves lately, as there have been several hot players coming out. China's Zheng Zhi and Yang Chen, Germany's Klose and Schneider, all four players have entered their respective national teams and have performed well. With the addition of players from other countries, there are now as many as 9 internationals in the Eintracht Frankfurt team, of which 4 are Chinese internationals.

Schuster was also aware of the problem for the first time, and when the internationals returned, he gave everyone an extra two days off and didn't let them train with the team.

He also has a lot of experience in this area, having quit the national team because of the lack of coordination between the club and the national team when he was a player, especially when he played in Barcelona.

So he knew very well the pain of the journey.

On the third day, he still noticed that many of the players were tired and not in great shape. He began to worry about the weekend league game, after all, he wanted to do his best to win at home to Wolfsburg at the weekend, but the players on Wolfsburg's side obviously had more rest than Eintracht Frankfurt, and there were not so many internationals.

Especially Zheng Zhi, Yang Chen, Li Weifeng and Salu, they all flew half the world back to play, unlike Klose and Schneider, he deliberately tried the second plan in training, let Zheng Zhi and Yang Chen play as substitutes, but the effect was not good.

By Saturday morning, Schuster had them in the starting line-up. Since the substitutes can't be used, then the only way to do this is to let them continue to play the main force.

The enthusiastic Eintracht Frankfurt fans put up a huge banner for Klose on the spot, and in last week's national team match, they gave the Frankfurt fans a sense of existence, after all, Eintracht Frankfurt has not had a German international for a long time, Klose gave them a long face.

"The spinach company is crazy, dare to give us a flat half handicap? Dare to ignore Klose and them, Leverkusen's lesson is not enough? ”

"I bought 500 marks straight out of Frankfurt."

"This is giving us money for nothing, and it would be foolish for us not to make a fortune."

“500？ I pressed 1000! ”

……

It seems that the fans are full of confidence in Eintracht Frankfurt and directly ignore the handicap offered by Spinach. However, since the spinach company dares to open such a handicap, there must be a reason for it, and the fanaticism of the fans can only say that they have confidence in the team.

The starting line-up of 442 is exactly the same as the one that played Bayer Leverkusen two weeks ago, with no changes. Same line-up, same starters, but when the game started, the players weren't excited. Although Wolfsburg played away from home, they were anti-away and quickly took the initiative on the pitch.

In the fifth minute, they almost knocked on the Eintracht Frankfurt goal. However, everyone thought it was an accident at the time, but after more than 20 minutes of attack, the Eintracht Frankfurt fans in the stands finally noticed that the situation was different. The team doesn't have the same hard work as before, and even Zheng Zhi rarely rushes past the midfield to organize attacks, and more in the backfield and Shure defense.

Grosso and Schneider on both wings advanced slowly, and there was little support for the frontcourt, and Klose and Yang Chen couldn't show their hands.

In the 29th minute, Eintracht Frankfurt conceded a goal at home. Kuchera and Pederson made a mistake in the combination, allowing the opposing striker to easily pick up the leak.

"I don't understand."

"What's going on today?"

"Is this still the Frankfurt we know?"

"Where's our somersault? Zheng? Schneider? Poplar? ”

Just when the Frankfurt fans continued to complain, Shure made a mistake in the midfield pass, allowing Wolfsburg to counterattack, and the team conceded another goal!

In less than three minutes, Eintracht Frankfurt was actually two goals behind.

It's less than half the time.

“……”

“……”

It was so unexpected that no one expected the process to develop like this.

"That's the aftermath of the national team break."

"I can't even get excited about Zheng Zhi, he used to run all over the field, but today he only covered half of the field."

"He is also made of meat, not iron."

"It stands to reason that Schuster should have given him a rest and at least a bench sitting."

Huang Jianxiang pointed out Frankfurt's problems to the point.

"Actually, it's not just Zheng Zhi, but several players who play in the national team are like this, and they are not excited. It is estimated that they will drop points at home today. ”

"Hehe, Zheng Zhi is indeed too tired. Schuster overdrew him. It's really not good, I'll replace him in the second half, and I'm going to play Bayern Munich away next week, I think, just give up Bayern's game, keep the main force to repair it, and concentrate on playing the next few games. At this time, you must know how to make trade-offs, otherwise you will fall short at the last moment, and besides, if the player is injured, the gains outweigh the losses. ”

"Look at Manchester United, those players didn't start, Paul Scholes, David Beckham, the Neville brothers didn't start, Manchester United won 2-0."

"Arsenal went to Seaman and won."

"Schuster still has a little less experience and is not bold enough, but he is decisive."

At half-time, Eintracht Frankfurt was 2-0 down. Schuster certainly saw this, and he expected it, but he didn't dare to take on tired players like Ferguson and Arsene Wenger, and the result was tragic.

Two goals behind, with today's state, can you get it back? He had to think it through. Eventually, he gave in. However, he still did not replace Zheng Zhi, but replaced Schneider and Yang Chen, and went on Brinkman and Salu.

In his heart, he still has illusions about Zheng Zhi.

"Yang Chen and Schneider went down, but Zheng Zhi still didn't go down."

"It also shows that Schuster is full of trust in Zheng Zhi."

Zheng Zhi did instigate a few beautiful attacks later, but it didn't result in a goal. That's because Wolfsburg slowed down the pace of the attack and played steadily.

It was only in the 79th minute that Schuster really conceded defeat and replaced Zheng Zhi.

In the end, Eintracht Frankfurt lost 0-2 at home. Zheng Zhi also received a rare rating of 2.5 for the first time, which was his worst game.

Of course, the analysis of "Kicker", which scored Zheng Zhi, is very objective - the national team's game affected his state, 2.5 points is a true portrayal of his game, but it is not his real strength, worse than Zheng Zhi's score is Schneider 3 points, Yang Chen's 3 points, Klose's 3 points, Li Weifeng is okay, he scored 2 points.

This is not Zheng Zhi's fault alone, but the fault of the whole team, everyone's state is too sluggish, and they can only usher in a defeat.
