Chapter 417: Record Attendance
"Okay, I'm done." Italian veteran coach Trapattoni said to reporters with a smile.
The media reporters in the press hall burst into laughter, they knew what the old man meant, it wasn't that he was humorous, and it wasn't that he really didn't want to live anymore, and the old man was sparing his life. It's just another lapse in Trapattoni's broken German, and he just wants to say: I'm done.
The old coach entered the Bundesliga at the beginning of the year to coach Bayern Munich with mixed reputations, not only regaining the lost salad plate from Dortmund, but also making Kaiserslautern rebel successful, Bayern became the background board for the promoted horse to win the championship 'Kaiser myth'. Seven years on, and last summer when Trapattoni took charge of Stuttgart in the Bundesliga, what hasn't changed is his defensive philosophy and poor German.
.
Meissner received the ball on his back, but was pressed by Khedira behind him, and he passed back to Hitzelsperger five yards away, which was a combination between Stuttgart's two midfielders. Unexpectedly, Zhuo Yang suddenly shot out from behind him, and the football had just left his foot, and was broken off by Zhuo Yang's outstretched foot, and after he dodged Heatersperger, Zhuo Yang directly lifted the door near the sideline 40 meters away from the goal, and the unprepared Hildebrand hurriedly returned to defend and jumped, but the football grazed his fingertips and the narrow gap in the crossbar.
1:0, Madiburg took the lead in the 12th minute of the first half of the 21st round of the Bundesliga home match against Stuttgart.
Meissner and Hitzelsperger are not serious midfielders, they previously played as a full-back and a full-back, but Trapattoni forced a change of position in the middle of the midfield in the new season. Croatian Sordo, who has been with Stuttgart for nine years and captains of the team, has become a bench guard after Trapattoni took over, the first time the 38-year-old has lost his place in the main line-up.
This kind of replacement of the old and the new is the responsibility of the head coach, and others can't say anything, let alone 38 years old. But football is a sport that judges heroes by success or failure, and Stuttgart's waist in the midfield in the new season is not up, so Trapattoni is at a loss, and he can explain that this is to increase the ability to play the ball in the midfield position, but 13 of the 20 rounds of games have been drawn, and his awkward German cannot convince anyone at all.
.
The 25,500 fans poured into the Victor Stadium for this game, which is a terrifying number and the most at Madiborg's home stadium.
Victor is one of the most beautiful stadiums, but it's so small, with only 19,075 designed seats, including seating and standing, which means that today the stadium is 33% overcrowded, which is a staggering proportion. Even so, about 1,000 fans with tickets did not make it to the stadium. The young club made a mistake in ticketing, with a serious overlap between pre-sold tickets and season tickets, member fan tickets, and a large number of realistic fake tickets on the market, causing Hannover citizens to flock to the club this weekend.
The game was even postponed for more than an hour, and the loudspeakers in the stadium promised over and over again that the fans who could not enter the stadium and the original price of the tickets that voluntarily left the stadium were refunded, and 200 soldiers temporarily seconded from the German 7th Infantry Green stationed in Hannover rushed in to provide reinforcements to maintain order and safety in the stadium. In the end, the game was allowed to play after the referee's instructions, but the German Football Association also said that it would punish Madiborg after the game and demanded that similar situations should not happen again.
Fortunately, the stands were warm and not chaotic, and many senior fans volunteered to help the police maintain order. Perhaps because of the city's history and culture, Hannover fans are notoriously moderate-minded in Germany.
Although the stadium is small, the dense and incomprehensible visual sense is extremely shocking, and this scene has become a classic moment in the history of Madiburg Club in the future.
is so popular, there is naturally no other reason, and it is not true.
Coincidentally, when visiting Stuttgart played at the Mercedes Arena and Werder Bremen in the last round, there were also more than 25,500 fans in attendance, which was similar to Victor today, but the Mercedes Stadium could accommodate 60,000 spectators.
The same number of people is palpitating and oppressive in Victor, but in the Mercedes-Benz Arena, it is extremely empty and bleak, and there is no atmosphere at all. The same number of people is the highest in the history of Victor and the lowest in the history of Mercedes-Benz Arena.
After Trapattoni took over Stuttgart, the conservative and dull style of play made the fans drowsy in the stands, and the team seemed to be fighting for a draw from the beginning, and 13 draws in 20 games were also a record in the history of Stuttgart clubs, with boring scenes and mediocre records gradually driving fans away from the stadium.
Trapattoni famously said when he was in charge of Bayern: "The player's body is empty. Now Bild can't help but scoff: "Now he has left Stuttgart's stadium 'empty'." ”
.
Former AC Milan striker, Danish Tomasson received a pass from the side of his compatriot Glen Charre, and wanted to use a reverse pull to avoid the defender to find a shooting opportunity, but was blocked by Rock Delas with a thick chest and failed to do it completely.
As a striker, shooting and scoring has never been something that Tomasson is good at, and being active and diligent is his label, but he couldn't catch up with Pompon, and Luis took two steps to run the football to Zhuo Boss, who had already started.
The midfielder Hitzelsperg was on the wing, and the midfielder Meissner was in the front field, and only Glen Char, who was born as a winger, played to chase Zhuo Yang, and the layman could see that he was reluctant. All the way down to the right area of 30 meters, Zhuo Yang did not stick to the ball, but turned over with his big foot and passed to Grosso, a square piece inserted at high speed on the other side.
Grosso doesn't have a fast bottom, but he has a great sense of rhythm with the ball and has a very good grasp of the fighter. Before he could see the bottom, Grosso swept the ball back to the top of the central arc, and the running Hamsik stepped on the football on the turf, but he kept castrating and continued to rush forward, and Stuttgart defender Babel was confused by him, and involuntarily stuck to Hamsik, who had no ball at his feet.
A second later, the football standing on the ground waited for Zhuo Yang's left foot, the edge of the penalty area was unobstructed, and the small arc ball drawn out hung straight into the corner of the goal.
In the 30th minute of the first half, Madiborg 2:0 Stuttgart at home.
Stuttgart struggled with transfers last summer, with attacking striker Kuranyi and midfield stalwart Hleb at the heart of the midfield, but Trapattoni's push for a replacement was far from the desired effect.
Tomasson, who replaced Kuranyi, has been a substitute player for the giants for many years, and it is still a bit difficult for him to suddenly ask him to be alone, and Tomasson, who has a somewhat wooden personality, cannot play the role of a frontcourt leader. Besides, Tomasson has never been an efficient shooter with a keen sense of smell, and he is characterized by stealthily pulling on the side of the main attacker with great intimidation power, opening up the opposition defence for the team.
However, Tomasson, who has scored six goals in the new season, is already the best performer of the three new signings.
