Chapter 28: Dismount
On August 14, 2010, at 21:30 pm Peking time and 15:30 pm Berlin time, with the referee's whistle, the first official match of the 2010/2011 season of Dortmund and the first round of the German Cup Dortmund away to Burghausen officially began at the Wacker Sports Park Stadium, the home of Burghausen.
Despite playing against a Bundesliga team, Jurgen Klopp has the strongest squad to play.
In the first official game of the new season, he could not afford to fail and had to get off to a good start.
The team didn't disappoint him either.
Just 3 minutes into the opening game, Dortmund, who were away from home, played a wave of fast attack from Burghausen, and then in a wing attack, Gotze broke through the opponent's full-back and crossed the bottom, and the main center forward Barrios fought for the top in the middle, successfully grabbed the first point, and a powerful header hit the goal, and put the ball into Burghausen's goal.
Dortmund took a 1-0 lead away from home just three minutes into the game, and the game entered the rhythm of Dortmund.
Twenty minutes later, in the 23rd minute, Dortmund won another corner kick by central defender Subotic who stepped forward to get the ball into the back of the net.
In less than half an hour, Dortmund was already 2-0 up and the game was largely won.
After taking a two-goal lead, Dortmund slowed down the tempo of their attack.
After all, Dortmund's next game five days later is the first leg of the UEFA Cup play-offs, followed by a first-round Bundesliga tie against Bayer Leverkusen three days later, and the schedule is a bit tight.
Therefore, in the case of guaranteed victory, it is necessary to slow down the pace of the attack and not do unnecessary physical exertion.
So, for the rest of the first half, Dortmund didn't score again.
Of course, the underdog Burghausen also failed to score, and the two sides went into the break with a 0-2 scoreline, with the away side Borussia Dortmund leading by two goals.
Huaguo, Cheng Hai's hometown, in the courtyard of Uncle Cheng Songbao's house, everyone watched and listened to the commentator seriously at the beginning of the game.
But after watching it for a while, everyone found that some people couldn't understand it, even if there was a narrator to explain it, they couldn't understand it.
After all, most of these people are people who have never watched a football game before.
If it weren't for Cheng Hai joining Dortmund and becoming a professional player, a signing fee would have earned money that many of them have not earned in their lifetimes, and they would never care about football.
In addition, Cheng Hai has not been able to play for a long time, so everyone doesn't watch much TV, but uses this place as a place for everyone to chat and fart and enjoy the cool at night, as well as the melon seeds and fruit drinks that Cheng Songquan bought!
Only Cheng Songquan and his wife and a few young people who knew a little about football continued to stare at the TV.
However, Cheng Hai didn't play until the end of the first half, and Cheng Songquan and Xi Yulin were really a little disappointed.
On the contrary, it was the young people who knew a little bit about football who comforted Cheng Songquan and said: "Uncle, don't worry, if you want to change people in football games, you usually don't change until sixty or seventy minutes in the second half!" What's more, Cheng Hai's physical fitness is not good, even if he changes it early, it is useless, and he can't play the entire 45-minute game in the second half. The previous friendly matches were all played for sixty or seventy minutes, so wait slowly! ”
Cheng Songquan and his wife could only continue to wait with a little apprehension.
On TV, the commentators and guests are actually quite bored!
A German Cup game, and a dominant Dortmund match against the Bundesliga, was really nothing to look forward to, and since Dortmund scored the second goal, the game has become very boring.
If it weren't for the expectation that Cheng Hai might come off the bench and usher in his career debut, even the commentators would be eager to stop the live broadcast immediately, and it would be better to broadcast other games or video highlights than to explain this boring German Cup.
At the scene, after a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and fought again.
Not long after the start of the second half, in the 49th minute, Dortmund took advantage of the opportunity at the beginning of the second half and the opponent was a little careless to play a wave of fast attack, and the fullback Grosskloitz made a wave of exquisite short passes with Shaheen and Zidan, and then scored a low shot into the penalty area.
Borussia Dortmund sealed the win 3-0 and there was no suspense left for the rest of the game.
For the reporters at the scene and the Chinese fans in front of the TV, the only thing worth looking forward to is that Klopp will not give Cheng Hai the opportunity to come on as a substitute and make his career debut.
As the clock ticked, after 60 minutes, all eyes were on the bench on the sidelines and not much on the game.
However, to everyone's disappointment, until the 70th minute, Klopp did not let Cheng Hai warm up.
Didn't Klopp plan to let Cheng Hai play today and make his career debut?
In fact, Klopp on the sidelines was also hesitating to send Cheng Hai as a substitute.
In fact, with the progress of training and friendly matches, Cheng Hai's status in Klopp's heart has risen rapidly, and he is not only a rookie substitute, but a real killer on the bench.
After this period of weight gain and physical training, Cheng Hai is much stronger than when he first came to Dortmund, and he can play about 40 minutes in training matches.
This German Cup match with little pressure, although it is a real professional game, the opponent has been defeated by Dortmund, and there is no sign of confrontation or counterattack at all, so it is no problem for Cheng Hai to play for 20 minutes.
But on the basis of a 3-0 win, is it necessary to let Cheng Haihai, who is a killer feature, waste physical energy and waste time, Klopp is a little hesitant.
Jurgen Klopp had been thinking about it since the 60th minute, and by the 70th minute, he hadn't thought about it yet.
However, in the 72nd minute, Klopp turned his head to look at Cheng Hai's eager eyes on the bench staring at the field, and finally decided to let Cheng Hai warm up.
He was ready to change Cheng Hai to kick for a while.
It's not for Cheng Haihai to score goals, but for Cheng Haihai to feel the real professional game.
After all, Cheng Hai's previous matches were all friendly matches and training matches, and there was no real professional match.
It is also a Bundesliga team, and the teams in the Bundesliga, Bundesliga, and regional leagues that Burghausen and Dortmund met in friendly matches before today are certainly different.
The attitude towards the game is definitely different.
Therefore, letting Cheng Hai play for a while, make his career debut, and feel the real professional game without the pressure of scoring goals and winning or losing, it will definitely be good for Cheng Hai to come off the bench in the next game.
Therefore, after making a decision, Klopp said to Cheng Hai on the bench: "Cheng Hai, go warm up!" ”
Cheng Hai has naturally been paying attention to the head coach, and has long been looking forward to the head coach asking him to warm up.
After this period of unlocking, most of the German Cheng Hai used in daily life has no problem, which shocked Fu Hangyi and the whole team, and called Cheng Hai a language genius.
Even in this game, Fu Hangyi was in the stands, not on the bench to help Cheng Hai translate.
Klopp's simple warm-up, Cheng Hai naturally heard no obstacles, immediately got up, left the bench, and began to jog back and forth outside the sideline to kick his legs to prepare for the warm-up before going on the field.
In the CCTV-5 live broadcast room, the commentators and guests were still boring commenting on the game, but they had actually been paying attention to Dortmund's bench.
When Klopp didn't let Cheng Hai warm up, the two were actually a little anxious and disappointed.
But now, they finally saw Klopp turn his head and shout something to the bench, and then they saw Cheng Hai get up and leave the bench and start warming up outside the touchline.
Warm-up is not a sign that you will be able to come off the bench, but at least it is a sign that you are likely to play.
The director of the live broadcast probably also knew what the audience in front of the TV set was watching in the second half, so he kept an eye on Dortmund's bench.
As soon as he saw Cheng Hai get up and go to warm up, the live broadcast equipment aimed at Cheng Hai and took a close-up for a few seconds before turning back to the game.
Therefore, the commentator, who was bored for most of the half, suddenly perked up and raised his voice to explain to the domestic fans and viewers who were paying attention to the live broadcast:
"Good!"
"Audience friends, we saw that the head coach of Dortmund asked our player Cheng Hai to warm up."
'It's a sign that there is a possibility of coming off the bench.'
"We have the potential to witness Cheng Hai's professional debut."
Finally, the narrator began to ask the guests: "Mr. Zhang, how long do you think Cheng Hai can come off the bench, and what performance can he perform after he comes off the bench?" ”
The guest named Teacher Zhang said "hehe" twice and said, "Now the time has reached more than 70 minutes, and it is less than 20 minutes before the end of the game." Therefore, even if Klopp really lets Cheng Hai come off the bench later, it is mostly a factor that allows him to play to feel the atmosphere of the professional game, and everyone should not expect too much from Cheng Hai's goal. Let's give Cheng Hai a little more time, as long as Cheng Hai can come off the bench and make his career debut today, it will be a victory. ”
The narrator immediately nodded in agreement: "Not bad! Time is a bit short, let's not put too much pressure on Cheng Hai! Today, as long as Cheng Hai can come off the bench and make his career debut, it will be a victory. ”
Cheng Songquan in front of the TV couldn't help but nod his head again and again, he was afraid that the commentators and guests would lead fans and viewers across the country in the direction of hoping that Cheng Hai would score. If my son doesn't score in the end, I'm afraid it will be a lot of pressure.
It seems that these two commentators and guests are still reliable.
In fact, Cheng Songquan didn't know that after so many years of twists and turns and failures, the Chinese people were very tolerant of domestic football while scolding and hating iron and steel.
As long as any player can perform at a slightly above average level, everyone cherishes it, and I hope that this kind of hope will not be ruined.
Therefore, the commentators and guests' tolerance of Cheng Hai was actually expected, and even the commentary on this situation was expected and prepared before the live broadcast began.
At the scene, Cheng Hai naturally didn't know the situation in China, and he couldn't pay attention to it, he just wanted to warm up well and get ready to play.
Cheng Hai's warm-up time was a bit long, and he warmed up for almost ten minutes.
In the 83rd minute, Klopp finally called Cheng Hai back and was ready to let him play.
The fourth official has already raised the substitution card, Dortmund 9 up, 10 down.
In the excited commentary of the commentator, the courtyard of Cheng Hai's uncle Cheng Songbao's house immediately became silent, and everyone stopped talking and quietly looked at the young man who was standing next to the fourth official and preparing to play, both familiar and unfamiliar.
Familiar, because it's the child they watched grow up.
is unfamiliar because the stage on which Cheng Hai is standing has exceeded the imagination of many people in this courtyard.
Germany, professional football, CCTV live broadcast, football stars and other words have nothing to do with them before.
And today, they will watch a child who grew up officially appearing on the field of German professional matches in the CCTV live broadcast, step by step towards the road of football stardom!
In addition to Cheng Hai's family, relatives and neighbors, there are countless fans and viewers sitting in front of the TV at this time, watching the live broadcast of CCTV-5, full of expectations for Cheng Hai's appearance.
Finally, in the midst of much anticipation, a Dortmund attack was broken off the touchline by the opposing full-back, forming a dead ball.
The live announcer at the Wacker Sports Park stadium read in an emotionless voice: "Dortmund substitution, No. 10 Zidan, No. 9 Cheng Hai!" ”
In the applause of more than 1,000 Dortmund away fans who accompanied the team, about dozens of overseas Chinese fans waving five-star red flags, and several Chinese reporters, Zidan walked to the sidelines, hugged Cheng Hai, and said "come on" to Cheng Hai.
In the expectation of countless people, Cheng Haiqiang, who completed the hug and substitution with Qi Dan, suppressed the violent beating of his heart and ran into the stadium!
Cheng Hai finally stepped onto the field of professional football and made his professional debut.
When he came on the field, Cheng Hai naturally had the dream of scoring a goal on his career debut and becoming famous with one goal.
But in reality, it's hard.
On the one hand, because of the lack of time, and on the other hand, because of the attitude of the opponent.
Although Dortmund are much stronger than Burghausen and Dortmund are already 3-0 up, Burghausen will not completely give up resistance, allowing many Temund to continue to score easily, turning the 3-0 score into an even bigger slaughter.
This is an official match, not a friendly match. Although the defeat is certain, Burghausen will not completely give up resistance and let Dortmund score as they please.
And Cheng Hai, a superstar who has not yet had a professional game experience but has recently made a name for himself in Germany, is naturally known to the players in Burghausen.
To be honest, many players in Burghausen are envious, jealous, hateful, and unconvinced of Cheng Hai.
Some of them are twenty-six or seventeen years old, but they are still working in the Bundesliga.
And Cheng Hai, as an 18-year-old, yellow-skinned Asian, has never participated in a professional league before, and has no experience in the youth academy of a professional team, but he joined the Bundesliga giants Dortmund as soon as he came, how can this not make people jealous?
Therefore, when Cheng Hai came on the bench, some of the Burghausen players had already decided to give Cheng Hai a little color to see, so that he could feel the deep malice from professional football.
So, less than 2 minutes after playing, Cheng Hai encountered the opponent's malicious collision when receiving the ball outside the penalty area.
This time the ball did not involve shooting, it was just a transfer for his teammates with Cheng Hai's back to the goal.
But at the moment when Cheng Hai was about to catch the ball, Kiel, the Burghausen back on the side, rushed over violently, and put his shoulder on Cheng Hai's side, wanting to knock Cheng Hai down.
Even if you can't knock it down, you have to knock Cheng Hai away and lose control of the ball.
On the one hand, it is to give Cheng Hai a dismount, and on the other hand, he can also take the opportunity to grab the ball or poke the ball at the feet of his teammates and try to counterattack.
Kiel, who is 180cm tall and weighs 78kg, rushed over violently, facing Cheng Hai, who is only 177cm tall and weighs only 65kg, which is very impactful in comparison.
The two look too different in size.
Even Cheng Hai's parents, uncle, relatives, friends and neighbors in front of the TV, as well as many Chinese fans and viewers, all saw their faces change, and they were afraid that Cheng Hai would be injured by such a fierce collision by the other party as soon as he came on the field.
Many people shouted in their hearts: "Get out of the way!" ”
However, Cheng Hai didn't seem to see it, or in the hearts of many people, he was stunned and didn't react at all, so he didn't react at all, so he continued to stand in place and stretch out his feet to receive the pass from his teammates.
Then, just when Cheng Hai received a pass from his teammates and pushed the ball to another teammate not far away without stopping, Kiel, who rushed from the side, also hit Cheng Hai with one shoulder.
Just when countless people felt a little unbearable to witness and thought that Cheng Hai was going to be knocked away, they saw that Cheng Hai was still standing in place, but his body shook slightly.
On the contrary, Kiel, who bumped into Cheng Hai, with the strong kinetic energy of sprinting, not only did he not knock Cheng Hai away, but he didn't even move a step, but Kiel himself was hit by the strong reaction force and screamed, fell to the ground with his back to the sky, and rolled over his shoulders and screamed in pain.
He was injured by Cheng Hai's 20-year-old physique.
This unexpected scene stunned countless Chinese people in front of the TV.
When it was over, everyone immediately clenched their fists and shouted:
"Good!"
"Cheng Hai is awesome!"
"The physical fitness is so good?"
"Even the Europeans can't touch him?"
"This physical fitness is simply amazing!"
Even Cheng Songquan and his wife were dumbfounded.
They know their son's body, he often plays football, and his body is better than that of ordinary people, but it shouldn't be so good, right?
Just looking at the size of the player, Cheng Songquan and his wife thought that their son was going to be knocked over, or even injured, and was carried off the field on a stretcher.
Unexpectedly, the son was not only fine, but stood still, knocked the other party who rushed to the ground, hugged his shoulders and screamed in pain, it seemed that the other party was injured.
