Chapter 191: Tottenham Hotspur (Reward League Leader Plus 2 for "Yunxi Mo")

After the sixth round of the Bundesliga, Hoffenheim remains at the top of the Bundesliga standings with 15 points from six games, five wins and one loss, followed by Hamburg with 13 points and Werder Bremen with 11 points.

On September 28, Lu Wenbin and other main players began to resume training after a three-day rest to prepare for the next game.

After the second leg of the League Cup match with Udinese, Lu Wenbin received 3 goals of 120,000 + the team won 3-2 and 80,000, a total of 200,000 experience rewards, and the experience rose to level 14 228212/500,000.

With such a rich reward in the League Cup, Lu Wenbin is even more looking forward to the group stage.

The 40 teams are divided into 8 groups of 5 teams each, with four group games. If you win all and add a penalty, then you don't have too much experience.

However, Lu Wenbin also deeply felt that his physical fitness was insufficient, and he had already decided that the next upgrade would add the physical attributes of OnePlus 13/13 no matter what.

Otherwise, I am afraid that his appearance and goals will be affected by lack of physical fitness at a critical moment in the third-line battle this season.

After a few days of training, on 2 October, in the second round of the 2008/2009 DFB Cup, Hoffenheim played away to Freiburg, who are currently third in the Bundesliga.

After 90 minutes, the score on the big screen was fixed at 1-4. Freiburg in front and Hoffenheim in the back.

Hoffenheim advanced to the round of 16 of this season's German Cup, which is the quarter-finals.

Although Lu Wenbin started this game, he was replaced in the 65th minute of the second half.

As a result, Lu Wenbin only scored two goals, but assisted Eduardo to score a goal and the other goal was headed in by Ibisevic from a corner.

After the game, Lu Wenbin received 1 assist in the German Cup, 1000 + 2 goals, 4000 + team wins 4000, a total of 9000 experience points in a single game reward, and the experience rose to level 14 237212/500,000.

Three days later, in the seventh round of the Bundesliga, Hoffenheim faced Eintracht Frankfurt at home, who were ranked fifth.

For this Bundesliga team that is famous in China because of Yang Chen, Lu Wenbin has no merciless thoughts.

In the cheers of more than 20,000 fans at the Karl Benz Stadium, Lu Wenbin scored four goals with a 19/19 run without the ball, completed the senior happiness, and led the team to a 5-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt.

After the game, Lu Wenbin received 4 goals and 40,000 + 20,000 team wins, a total of 60,000 experience points, and the experience rose to level 14 297212/500,000.

The next day, after all the Bundesliga matches in this round, Hoffenheim continued to rank at the top of the Bundesliga table with 18 points from seven games, six wins and one loss.

After all the Bundesliga matches are over, the league is suspended and the FIFA breakday stage begins, and the next round of the league will be rekindled in more than 10 days.

Some of the international players in the team are going to the national team to report on the World Cup in South Africa and play in the World Preliminary Tournament on all continents, but there is nothing to do with Lu Wenbin.

The Chinese team was eliminated in the top 20 of the Asian qualifiers for the World Cup in South Africa long before the Olympics, and the top 10 matches are none of the business of the Chinese team.

Moreover, because of the failure of the Olympic Games, the Football Association at this time was in chaos, and even friendly matches were not arranged, and naturally no one came to Lu Wenbin.

Lu Wenbin continued to stay at the base and continued to train with other teammates who were not selected for the national team.

During this period, on October 7, UEFA held a draw ceremony for the group stage of this season's UEFA Cup in Niang, Switzerland.

According to the rules for the avoidance of teams from the same country in the group stage, six German teams were placed in different groups.

In the end, Hoffenheim were placed in Group D, along with Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League, Spartak Moscow in the Russian Premier League, Nijmegen in the Dutch First Division and Dinamo Zagreb in the Croatian First Division.

This group is not bad for Hoffenheim, except for Tottenham, who may be a little more difficult to play, and the other teams do not pose much of a threat to Hoffenheim, who are the top team in the Bundesliga.

The point is, there are three qualifying spots for each group in the UEFA Cup, which is quite generous.

Basically, Hoffenheim and Tottenham Hotspur are likely to qualify the most in Group D, with the other three teams battling it out for the last remaining spot.

The first matchday of the UEFA Cup group stage is 23 October, when Hoffenheim host their biggest rivals, Tottenham Hotspur.

Therefore, the whole team must be prepared for hard fighting, and Lu Wenbin must be physically prepared.

Fortunately, because of the national team's match day, Lu Wenbin can get more than ten days to prepare.

When the time comes, it will definitely be no problem to play the whole game, and it will not be as tiring as playing Udinese.

In the pre-season friendly match Hoffenheim was an expedition to Blackburn Rovers across the sea, and it was the first time to play a Premier League team, and Lu Wenbin was a little mentally unprepared.

So Lu Wenbin didn't play very well in that game, only scored one goal, and Hoffenheim also lost to Blackburn Rovers in the end.

But now, this time, not only Hoffenheim is at home against Tottenham, waiting for work, but also Lu Wenbin has sufficient psychological preparation, and his personal strength has also been greatly improved compared with the beginning of the season.

Against the Premier League team again, Lu Wenbin is ready for a good big battle.

The next step is to train peacefully and wait for the national team break day to resume playing.

During this period, because of his outstanding performance in the European League Cup hat trick, Lu Wenbin's endorsement value increased, and Mendes signed an endorsement for Lu Wenbin for a German sports equipment company, adding an additional income to Lu Wenbin.

More than a week later, the national team competition ended, and the main players returned to the team one after another to start preparing for the eighth round of the Bundesliga on October 18.

At 14:30 noon on October 18, in the 8th round of the Bundesliga, Hoffenheim challenged Hannover 96, which ranked sixth from the bottom of the Bundesliga.

In this game, Lu Wenbin, who had rested for more than ten days, easily scored 3 goals away from home and completed a hat trick.

The 19/19 off-ball run and the 20/20 shot on goal made Lu Wenbin's goal efficiency really more and more terrifying.

However, one of those three goals was scored from a direct free-kick.

After completing the hat-trick, Lu Wenbin was replaced by Ralph to prepare for the next game against Tottenham Hotspur and avoid accidents in this game.

After Lu Wenbin left the field, Ibisevic played well, scoring two goals in a row to complete the brace, and the final aggregate score was fixed on Hoffenheim's 5-2 away win over Hannover 96.

After this game, Lu Wenbin received 3 goals of 30,000 + 20,000 team wins, a total of 50,000 points of experience in a single Bundesliga reward, and the experience rose to 14 levels 347212/500,000.

After all the matches in this round were over, second-placed Hamburg were held to a draw at home by their opponents, earning only one point.

As a result, Hoffenheim, who has 21 points in 8 games, 7 wins and 1 loss, is 4 points ahead of Hamburg, which has 5 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, and only 17 points, widening the gap with the second place.

With good momentum in the league, Hoffenheim are about to play their first match against Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League in the group stage of this season's UEFA Cup.
