Chapter 26: Conquest of Westfaren Stadium

In the heated discussion of German and Chinese media and fans, the whole Dortmund team also took the plane to leave Turkey.

However, after leaving Turkey, the entire Dortmund team did not fly directly back to the club, but flew to Munich.

Because just one day later, it will be the team's fourth friendly match, away against Munich 1860.

Munich 1860 is currently in the Bundesliga, ranking 8th in the Bundesliga last season, and its strength is average.

But no matter how general, it is also a team in the Bundesliga, plus Dortmund flew from the station to Turkey, and from Turkey to Munich, there was only a day in between, and everyone spent the flight journey.

Except for Cheng Guo, who can successfully enter a deep sleep and rest well with dream training at night, the players have relatively poor energy.

Therefore, on July 24, Dortmund played a game against Munich 1860, which was also a little difficult, with the score at 0-0 at the end of the first half, and neither side scored.

Jurgen Klopp made a couple of changes at half-time, but it was still 0-0 by the 69th minute of the second half.

Just when Klopp summoned Cheng Hai, who was warming up, back and gave a few orders, he was ready to wait for the dead ball to let Cheng Hai come on the bench.

As a result, at this moment, the clock came to the 70th minute, and Munich 1860 launched an attack.

In this attack, Munich 1860 striker Raut ran into an open opportunity in the penalty area to receive a clever pass from his teammate and volleyed, and the score became 1-0.

Klopp, who was about to make a substitution, was stunned and felt that his luck was terrible.

Fortunately, this is only a friendly match, not an official match.

The goal also happened to be an opportunity to make substitutions, so Klopp hurriedly gave way to Cheng Hai, replaced Barrios, and partnered Lewandowski as a double striker.

After the publicity of the German media, Cheng Hai was already well-known in German football at this time.

The manager is not a star, but the coach of Munich 1860 must have mentioned it to the players before the game, and everyone knows that Cheng Hai scored 5 goals in the first three friendly matches and his strength is good.

Therefore, after Cheng Hai played, the defenders of Munich 1860 paid great attention to him, not only one defender was always around him to mark the defense, but others also paid great attention to the help defense to prevent Cheng Hai from running out of a good opportunity to run out of the gap.

In the 74th minute, although Cheng Hai ran out of a gap and received a pass from his teammates to form a shot, he was arrived in time by another defender of the opposing side and blocked the ball by flying to block the gun.

This is the consequence of being taken seriously by the other party.

In the 77th minute, Dortmund broke the ball to form a counterattack. At the moment when his side broke the ball, Cheng Hai wanted to catch the ball in an offside position to form a single knife.

As a result, the opponent's back line collectively took a step forward, causing Cheng Hai to be on the offside line in an instant, and the straight plug that received his teammates was also blown offside by the referee.

However, although Cheng Hai has not scored a goal after the game, his physique and off-ball movement have created huge pressure on the opponent, so that the opposing backline has to pay more attention to him.

This gives the rest of Borussia Dortmund more chances.

So, in the 80th minute, Lewandowski received a pass from Shinji Kagawa and scored the ball into the goal of Munich 1860 to tie the score at 1-1.

After Lewandowski scored, the opponent's defense was a little out of line, wanting to defend Lewandowski, who had already scored and was in good form, and Cheng Hai, who was a huge potential threat.

As a result, the opponent's defense was more distracted and unable to concentrate on Cheng Hai.

And Cheng Hai's full-value off-ball running played a powerful role in the 89th minute.

In this attack, Dortmund kept passing on the left, causing both formations to press to the left.

The right side of the result is a bit empty.

Cheng Hai ran out of a huge gap near the right corner of the big penalty area under such circumstances.

Although the opponent's defenders followed closely behind him, Cheng Hai's full physique was also not vegetarian, and he stuck the opponent behind him.

Then, Shahin, who was holding the ball, made a hidden diagonal long pass, which penetrated the defense of Munich 1860 and sent the ball to the right rib of the big penalty area in front of Cheng Hai.

Cheng Hai rushed into the penalty area while stuck with the opponent's defender behind him, and volleyed the ball into the lower right corner.

The goalkeeper couldn't pounce and could only watch the ball go into the net.

Cheng Hai scored in his fourth consecutive friendly match, helping Dortmund turn the score around again, bringing the total number of goals to six.

However, Cheng Hai failed to score again.

Three minutes after stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, and Dortmund came back from a goal to win 2-1 to make it four consecutive friendlies.

Cheng Hai was not systematically rated as the best player in this game, so he was not rewarded with the experience of the best player.

But the team won, and Cheng Hai still won the winning prize of 10,000 experience.

With this 10,000 experience winning prize, Cheng Hai's experience has risen to level 13 52,600/50,000, and it will be automatically upgraded to level 14 0.26/70,000, and he will get an upgrade reward of 20 skill points, with a balance of 21 skill points.

In terms of skills that are randomly opened with upgrades, Cheng Hai has obtained the skill of "Crossing", and the initial attribute is 5.

This is the main skill of a winger or a full-back or full-back, and Cheng Hai is currently using very little.

There are so many pass masters such as Gotze, Schmelzer, Grosskloitz, Shinji Kagawa, and Shahin, and there is no need for Cheng Haila to go to the side to get the ball and break through, and then cross.

Therefore, the skill points that Cheng Hai obtained with the upgrade were not added to the cross, but all of them were added to the "grabbing" skill that has never increased the chance of shooting.

20 skill points, one point up every 5 points, soaring his "grab points" skill from 15 to 19, which is close to the full value.

20 full value of off-ball running, with 19 "grab points", plus 20 full value of the physique. Cheng Hai believes that in the next game, he will be able to get more shots on goal.

Two consecutive away games just one day apart made the players tired.

Therefore, after playing a friendly match against Munich 1860 and returning to the station, Klopp gave everyone a day off and resumed training on July 26.

On July 27, in the team's intra-team training match, Cheng Hai scored four goals in more than 30 minutes, and his high goal efficiency and stable shooting skills shocked and delighted the whole team.

Of course, I am happy that with such a stable goal point as Cheng Hai, everyone can have more expectations for the club's new season.

The only regret is Cheng Hai's physical fitness problems, which limits his greater performance.

If Cheng Hai can play the whole game, I don't know how many goals will be scored in a game.

Of course, at the moment it is only based on the judgment of friendly matches and training matches.

When it comes to the official professional competition, whether Cheng Hai can adapt to it, as the media said, everyone still has some questions.

On 29 July, Borussia Dortmund's fifth pre-season friendly was played away to Bundesliga side Troesden.

It was a weaker opponent and Borussia Dortmund took a 2-0 lead in the first half.

In the 56th minute of the second half, the opponent tied the score at 1-2.

But it didn't take long for Dortmund to score another goal in the 68th minute to extend the score to 3-1.

Klopp didn't give Cheng Hai much playing time in this game, and didn't replace him until the 82nd minute, which was almost only 10 minutes.

However, even in such a short period of time, Cheng Hai still managed to score.

In the 87th minute, Dortmund won a corner.

But after the corner kick, neither player grabbed the first point. The ball fell into the box, causing a wave of confusion between the players on both sides.

In the chaos, Cheng Hai, who rushed in from outside the penalty area, suddenly grabbed the ball with his full physique and keen ability to grab points, and then stabbed the ball into the opponent's goal.

Cheng Hai continued to score goals.

It was his fifth consecutive game of scoring and his tally to seven, all of which came off the bench.

This is no longer a newcomer, but a phenomenal performance.

Although it was all a friendly match, such a performance was enough to attract the attention of all the media.

Therefore, not only the media in Germany and China, but also some media in Europe have reported the news of Cheng Hai's consecutive goals.

Dortmund's new signing Cheng Hai is in hot form, scoring 7 goals in 5 friendly matches. 》

"Dortmund has added another talented young player, and Chinese teenager Cheng Hai has scored consecutive goals in 5 friendly matches. 》

"Goals per game, the total number of goals in five friendly matches has reached 7, the most anticipated new star of the Bundesliga - Huaguo player Cheng Hai! 》

At the same time, the abundance of German media coverage has also made Dortmund fans look forward to the rising star.

You know, when I first learned that Dortmund signed a contract with Cheng Hai, many fans still thought disdainfully: What kind of football will the Chinese people play? Their forte is table tennis!

Unexpectedly, Cheng Hai slapped them in the face again and again with his actual performance.

Even Mario Gotze, known as Westfalun's darling, was completely overshadowed by Cheng Hai's performance.

Before he even played an official professional match, Cheng Hai has become a much-anticipated supernova.

It's just that this kind of fame has advantages and disadvantages.

If Cheng Hai can't perform well in his first professional game, I'm afraid that the trolls' saliva will completely drown him at that time.

But in any case, the current Dortmund fans are still full of expectations for Cheng Hai.

The previous five friendlies have all been away from home.

In the sixth friendly match on August 5, Dortmund finally ushered in a home game, and the opponent was Manchester City, a Premier League powerhouse, which was full of gold.

Coupled with the fans' expectations and curiosity about Cheng Hai, as well as their support for the team's preparations for the new season, wanting to see the team's state in the new season, and other factors, the Westfalen Stadium, as the largest stadium in Germany, was sold out this time, which was shocking.

On the one hand, this proves the die-hard loyalty of the Hornets fans, and on the other hand, it is also related to the team's results in the first five friendlies.

After all, everyone wants to see victory, not defeat.

With a winning streak and a friendly match that had not been played at home before, everyone's enthusiasm was fully released in this game.

At 14:30 p.m. on August 5, 2010, when the team began to warm up before the game, Cheng Hai stepped into the famous Westfaren Stadium, and was immediately startled by the cheers of the landslide and tsunami in the stadium.

Although he had already signed with Dortmund and had previously conducted adaptation training on this stadium many times, Cheng Hai really didn't expect that after all the more than 80,000 seats on the scene were filled, it would become so exciting.

Cheng Hai felt his blood burning.

It's amazing to think of scoring a goal in front of more than 80,000 spectators and shouting your name like a tsunami in the stadium.

At this moment, Cheng Hai did not regret signing Dortmund at all. Although when signing the contract, Dortmund took advantage of the asymmetry of information and took advantage of it.

It's a great experience to be able to play in Germany's largest stadium like Westfalen Stadium!

In addition, Cheng Hai also unexpectedly saw a bunch of overseas Chinese fans holding five-star red flags in the stands, about one or two hundred people, which surprised him.

He didn't expect that he, who didn't even have an official professional match, would be able to attract so many compatriots to watch a friendly match with him.

It seems that only after coming on as a substitute for a while and desperately trying to score goals to repay the support of his compatriots!

After the two sides completed the warm-up, at 15 o'clock in the afternoon, in the cheers of the fans, with the referee's whistle, Dortmund's sixth friendly match of the new season and the first home friendly match at Westfarun Stadium officially began.

The opponent is Manchester City, who finished 5th in the Premier League last season, and they are definitely strong opponents.

The game was also evenly matched, with the first half tied at 1-1, with Dortmund, who were playing at home and having 80,000 fans cheering, not taking advantage of it.

Moreover, Manchester City's goal was a sports goal, but Dortmund's goal was a penalty.

Seriously, Dortmund are even slightly at a disadvantage.

This situation made Klopp a little dissatisfied.

As the first home friendly match of the new season, the full attendance also made Klopp a little pressured and wanted to win.

But the team's offense has been a bit sluggish.

It's not that chances aren't created, but it's always a fraction of a second, and it's always a miss.

Finally, this time Klopp didn't wait for the 70th minute, and replaced Cheng Hai in the 60th minute.

And, with Cheng Hai on the field, Klopp also conveyed clear tactical instructions: the whole team plays around Cheng Hai, with Cheng Hai as the offensive endpoint, and attacks with all their might.

The offensive factor in Uncle Scum's heart has been stimulated!

The next game made the more than 80,000 Hornets fans on the scene completely crazy.

On the one hand, as Klopp's new instructions arrived on the pitch, Dortmund suddenly picked up the tempo of the attack and began to bombard Manchester City.

On the other hand, with the full value of the three skills of shooting, running without the ball, and physique, and the ability to grab points has also reached 19 points, Dortmund has greatly improved both shooting opportunities and goal scoring rate.

Although Manchester City already knew how much of a threat Cheng Hai posed in the No.9 shirt, they still had holes in Cheng Hai's defence.

In the 67th minute, Cheng Hai ran an excellent opportunity in the penalty area, and received an inverted triangle pass from Shinji Kagawa after going down the side with his body to block the opponent's defender, and kicked the ball into the Manchester City goal guarded by Joe Hart.

Although Joe Hart reacted quickly and tried his best to make a save, he still seemed beyond the reach of Cheng Hai's shot that went straight to the corner, and finally could only watch the ball go against the post and into the goal.

The moment Cheng Hai's shot flew into the goal, the entire Westfarun exploded instantly, and more than 80,000 fans let out a deafening shout, applauding and cheering for Cheng Hai's goal!

The on-site commentator was even more excited to comment: "In the 67th minute, Dortmund scored a goal, and the goal was scored by Cheng Hai, the No. 9 player from Huaguo, and Dortmund took a 2-1 lead!" ”

Then, the commentator raised his voice and shouted passionately: "Let's cheer the name of the goalkeeper!" ”

"It was ...... who scored the goal"

At Westfalen, this kind of treatment for goal-scorers has long been familiar.

With the shouting of the commentator, more than 80,000 fans in the audience shouted together: "Cheng Hai! ’

Of course, some people don't get this Chinese pronunciation right the first time, and it's a little uneven!

But it doesn't matter, because the narrator shouts more than once!

As the commentator continued to mobilize his emotions, everyone's voices became more and more neat, and the 80,000 people in the audience chanted Cheng Hai's name in unison.

"It was ...... who scored the goal"

"Cheng Hai!"

"It was ...... who scored the goal"

"Cheng Hai!"

"It was ...... who scored the goal"

"Cheng Hai!"

……

The deafening shout made Cheng Hai, who had scored the goal, suddenly feel a rush of blood rushing to his head, and he really felt like he fainted with happiness when he was surrounded by his teammates to celebrate.

Two months ago, he was just an amateur player on the collegiate team, and he really didn't expect that one day he would be able to play in a stadium as famous as Westfalen, and score goals that would be cheered on by the fans.

This kind of feeling of blood gushing out is something that Cheng Hai has never experienced in his life before, and he has never even thought about it.

At this moment, Cheng Hai, who originally just regarded Dortmund as the first springboard for his career, suddenly gave birth to a sense of belonging.

You know, he hasn't played a competitive game for Borussia Dortmund yet!

It was just a friendly and it was only his first friendly goal in Westfalen.

Unexpectedly, the fans gave him such a grand treatment!

Regardless of the bonus, the value, the status, or the championship rewards given by the system, Cheng Hai also feels that he must desperately leave a few heavyweight championships for Dortmund in order to be worthy of their support!

In addition to Cheng Hai, several Chinese reporters in the press box, as well as the hundreds of overseas Chinese fans who gathered together, were also shocked by the scene of the fans chanting Cheng Hai's name in unison.

At the world-famous Westfaren Stadium, more than 80,000 fans chanted the name of a Chinese player, which was simply shocking!

Cheng Hai's outstanding performance conquered Westfaren Stadium and conquered more than 80,000 Hornets fans on the scene!

At this moment, they also completely became Cheng Hai's fans, and they felt extremely proud and proud of Cheng Hai's performance!
