At 6:30 p.m. at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Ralph was making the final mobilization of his players in the away team's dressing room.

Ralph said: "In this game, the outside world thinks that we are lost, and the championship must be Bayern Munich, but are you willing to let Bayern take the championship trophy away?" ”

"I don't want to!" Lu Wenbin and his teammates replied in unison.

Ralph asked: "Do you want to taste what it's like to lift the German Cup?" ”

"Yes!" The team members replied louder.

Ralph nodded and said:

"That's good! The match was broadcast live not only to the whole of Germany, but also to Europe and dozens of countries and regions around the world, including China, Lu's home country, with a population of more than one billion. ”

"If you can beat Bayern Munich in this final, it will mean a lot to Hoffenheim as a team and to your own future: Hoffenheim will be famous all over the world, and you will be a world-famous star."

"Bayern Munich are strong, that's true. But football is not about who is strong and will win, otherwise what else is there to watch in football? Otherwise, why are there so many unpopular results, so many classic battles in which the weak defeat the strong? ”

"So, no matter what difficulties you face in the game, what kind of adversity you face, I hope you always keep your fighting spirit and 12 points of concentration until the end of the game. Only then will we have any hope of winning. ”

The players nodded vigorously, and everyone's hearts rose with the fighting spirit to defeat Bayern Munich and make a name for themselves.

Ralph then proceeded to make the final tactical arrangements.

This game is the same as the 1/4 final against Dortmund, with Ibisevic at the front to give Lu Wenbin the ball, Lu Wenbin as a shadow striker and offensive finisher, and gather the strength of the whole team to deliver cannonballs to Lu Wenbin.

Of course, Hoffenheim did this before, and everyone knew it, including Bayern coach Heathfield, who must have taken precautions.

Although Lu Wenbin's ability to run without the ball has improved a lot in this game, it was only a performance in training, and Ralph is not sure what Lu Wenbin looks like in the actual game.

Moreover, even if Lu Wenbin's off-ball running attributes have improved, in the powerful Bayern Munich penalty area, under the defense of world-class central defenders such as Lucio and Van Bitten, it is still a question whether Lu Wenbin can receive the ball and form a goal.

Therefore, Ralph gave Lu Wenbin and others a few more words in this game.

If there is really a situation where Lu Wenbin is stared to death, then everyone has to adapt to the situation, and they can't really rely on Lu Wenbin completely.

……

As the clock ticked and the time drew closer, the players from both sides left the dressing room and came to the players' tunnel, ready to play.

The lineups of the players from both sides were also played on the big screen, and the on-site commentary was also read out one by one.

The first to be read out was Bayern Munich's starting lineup, which was No. 22 goalkeeper Rensing, No. 2 defender Sagnor, No. 3 defender Lucio, No. 5 defender Van Bitten, No. 30 defender Lyle, No. 16 midfielder Otter, No. 31 midfielder Schweinsteiger, No. 7 forward Ribery, No. 39 forward Kroos, No. 20 forward Sosa, and No. 9 striker Luca Toney, with a game formation of 4231.

Just look at Bayern's lineup to see how luxurious this Bundesliga giant really is.

Sagnol, Lucio, Van Bitten, Schweinsteiger, Franck Franck, Franck Ribery, Luca Toney, etc., are all big stars from Germany, Europe, and even the world, and fans are familiar with them.

Almost every player's name is shouted out, which will cause applause from the fans in the stadium.

Moreover, there are superstars with names such as Kahn, Klose, Podolski, and Lahm on the bench, which is simply extravagant to the extreme.

When the on-site commentator read the Hoffenheim lineup, the applause was much smaller.

Only when Lu Wenbin's name was read that the applause was much louder.

Because of this period of time, Lu Wenbin's performance has attracted the attention of many neutral fans, and because there are many more overseas Chinese viewers applauding Lu Wenbin.

Hoffenheim's starting lineup for this game is No. 1 goalkeeper Daniel Haas, No. 13 defender Sauter Law, No. 24 defender Nilson, No. 14 defender Yankel, No. 3 defender Jaisler, No. 21 midfielder Gustavo, No. 22 forward Kopado, No. 23 forward Salihovic, No. 33 forward Eduardo, No. 19 center forward Ibisevic, No. 90 forward Lu Wenbin, and the game formation is 442.

At 18:50, the appearance ceremony began.

First up was the flag of the German Football Association, followed by the flags of Bayern Munich and Hoffenheim.

In the end, it was Lu Wenbin and other starters of the two teams who led the little caddies to play.

When Lu Wenbin walked past the trophy at the exit of the players' tunnel, he took a deep look at the trophy.

It was the first time he had the chance to touch a trophy from Europe's top professional league, but Lu resisted the urge to reach for it.

Because there is a famous curse in football, or superstition, that is, you can't touch the championship trophy before the final, and whoever touches it loses.

On the night of Istanbul in 2005, AC Milan's Kaka touched the Champions League trophy when he came out.

Then, the whole world knows what happened that night.

While the curse wasn't 100 per cent effective, the players preferred to believe it and basically resisted the urge to touch the trophy before the game.

Although Lu Wenbin didn't believe it, he didn't want to put extra pressure on his teammates who believed in this curse because of his outrageous behavior.

Facing Bayern Munich is already a lot of pressure, if Lu Wenbin still touches the trophy before the game and is seen by the teammates behind, it will undoubtedly cause more pressure on the teammates who believe in this curse.

Lu Wenbin didn't want to lose to Bayern and lose the championship.

Therefore, Lu Wenbin restrained his impulse and led the little caddie to walk calmly next to the trophy.

None of the other players from the two teams touched the trophy, and some didn't even dare to look at it, as if they would fly if they looked at it.

To the applause of the fans, the 22 starters entered the stadium, lined up and began to play the German national anthem.

After the national anthem is played, the caddies and flags leave the field, the players of both sides shake hands, take a group photo, and then the captains of the two teams guess the coins and pick the sides under the auspices of the referee.

When guessing the coin, Salihovic won the tee for Hoffenheim.

The players of both sides then take up their positions in their respective halves and wait for the game to begin.

Lu Wenbin and Ibisevic were preparing to kick off in the center circle, and the referee frequently raised his hand to look at his watch outside the center circle, ready to blow the whistle for the start of the game.
