Chapter 288: A Different Away Game
After scoring a brace, Lu Wenbin did not score again for the rest of the first half.
However, Eduardo took advantage of the gap formed by Lu Wenbin to take away two defenders in the 40th minute, and broke through directly from the middle to the forbidden area and shot successfully.
Hoffenheim took a 3-0 lead in the first half.
After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides again in the second half, and Hoffenheim continued their attacking football and did not shrink their defence because of a three-goal lead.
In the 58th minute, Salihovic broke through from the wing and sent in a low cross, Paljic and the opposing central defender rose up in front of the post, but no one could reach the ball.
However, Lu Wenbin squeezed away the two players who were closely marking him with his strong physique, jumped in the forbidden area to fight for the first point, and shook his head to attack the goal.
Although Lu Wenbin's header attribute is not high, the ball hit the angle slightly right, but because the distance was too close, Benaglio just subconsciously waved his hand, but did not touch the ball.
The ball slipped past Benaglio and into the back of the net.
Lu Wenbin, who has become the highest-paid player in the Bundesliga, lived up to expectations and scored a hat-trick in the Super Cup to help Hoffenheim lead Wolfsburg 4-0.
At this time, Ralph began to make substitutions, allowing Obasi, Ibisevic and Simunic to come on the pitch to find a feel for the game.
When Lu Wenbin was replaced by Obasi, he received warm applause and cheers from 30,000 fans at the scene.
Later, Wolfsburg finally took advantage of Simunich and Nelson's unfamiliar cooperation to score a goal, but it only saved a little face.
In the end, the unofficial 2009 German Super Cup ended with Hoffenheim's 4-1 victory over Wolfsburg.
Lu Wenbin, the highest-paid player in the Bundesliga, performed well, scoring a hat-trick in 58 minutes to lead the team to victory, which countered the criticism of some media that the 19-year-old Lu Wenbin's annual salary was too high, and also made a good start to Hoffenheim's new season.
It stands to reason that the Super Cup experience between the league champions and cup winners of the five major leagues should be more than the League Cup, because the cup winners are sure to participate in the League Cup, and the league champions are sure to be able to participate in the Champions League.
Hoffenheim and VfL Wolfsburg are both Champions League participants next season, and the Super Cup between them is unlikely to be less experienced than the UEFA Cup.
But because this game is not an official game, the intensity of the game is not so great, and it is not even a champion in the eyes of the system, so in the end, Lu Wenbin's experience is only the same as that of the Bundesliga.
In the end, Lu Wenbin won 20,000 with 30,000 goals + 20,000 goals, and received a single reward of 50,000 experience in total, and the experience rose to 1.412 million/2 million at level 16.
After the game, Lu Wenbin, who scored a hat trick, was unanimously praised by the media, saying that Hoffenheim Club did not hesitate to renew Lu Wenbin's contract with the highest salary in the Bundesliga, which was an extremely correct decision.
Lu Wenbin ignored the comments of the outside world, he trained seriously every day, and when he went home, he went to the nearby stadium with Noel to practice faster, which caused many fans to watch.
The media also tracked and reported on Lu Wenbin's training, and quoted Noel's statement, saying that Lu Wenbin's speed is also very talented, but it has not been excavated yet, and everyone should not be too surprised that Lu Wenbin will become a fast horse on the court in the future.
It can be regarded as achieving Lu Wenbin's goal and giving everyone a preventive shot.
Then, a week later, on 27 July, Hoffenheim hosted a friendly against Getafe in La Liga.
La Liga teams are more unrestrained than the Bundesliga, and most of them play attacking football.
Not to mention Hoffenheim, even if they go to the Bernabeu and Camp Nou, they will play against Real Madrid and Barcelona.
In the end, Hoffenheim scored six goals in the battle against Getafe and won 6-3 against Getafe.
Lu Wenbin scored a brace in the first half before being replaced by Ralph at half-time.
In this friendly match, Lu Wenbin won 2 goals and 2000+ wins, a total of 4000 experience rewards, and the experience rose to 1.416 million/2 million at level 16.
It was the last friendly game before the start of the new season, and Hoffenheim, who scored six goals, continued to attack, but the back line was still a little shaky.
However, after Simunic is integrated into the team, presumably Hoffenheim's backline will be able to improve a notch.
Next, it's time to wait for the start of the new season.
In this context, on July 31, the first round of the 2009/2010 DFB Cup kicked off with six matches and kicked off the new season of the German professional league, including strong teams such as Wolfsburg and Bayer Leverkusen.
In the end, Wolfsburg, who lost 1-4 to Hoffenheim in the Super Cup, also defeated Wayne Wiesbaden of the German League 4-1 in the first round of the German Cup, which can be regarded as a good start in the official competition.
Over the next few days, the remaining teams will play against each other, with the lower-ranked teams enjoying the right to play at home.
Playing against strong teams in the Bundesliga and Bundesliga, with the participation of stars, can make the lower-level teams sell more tickets, which can be regarded as the professional league's care for the lower-level teams.
As last season's Bundesliga champion and treble winning team, Hoffenheim's first round of the German Cup is naturally away.
On 2 August, Hoffenheim played away to Obrande in the Northern German Regional League.
Under the Bundesliga, there are also Bundesliga B and Bundesliga, and below the Bundesliga is the German regional league.
Therefore, Obrande is only a fourth-tier team in Germany, and the gap between him and Hoffenheim is too big.
Nothing more than hope for a win over Hoffenheim in Obrandd's home fans were just a goal and a look at the stars from the Bundesliga.
Especially the European Golden Boot like Lu Wenbin, fans of their regional league teams, except on TV, are rare to see.
When Hoffenheim entered the stadium, Obrand, which could only accommodate more than 4,000 people and many of them were standing, was full.
Except for about two or three hundred Hoffenheim fans who came with the team, the rest were all home fans.
Hoffenheim fans were not interested in this kind of game at all, so not all of them came, but the home team fans were very interested and filled the stadium completely.
When entering, Lu Wenbin originally waved to the Hoffenheim fans who came with the team, but it caused a burst of applause, cheers and screams from the home team fans in the stands.
In particular, some female fans shouted Lu Wenbin's name unscrupulously, looking like a nymphomaniac, but they did not arouse the disgust of the fans of the home team around them.
It can be seen that the fans of the opponent Obrande were not hostile to Hoffenheim who came to the game at all, and they were even very excited to see a star like Lu Wenbin on the spot.
Of course, not only Lu Wenbin, but also Eduardo, Salihovic, Gustavo and others received applause from the away fans.
This is the first time that Lu Wenbin has not been booed by the home team fans away from home, and he has enjoyed such treatment, which makes Lu Wenbin quite surprised and happy.
Lu Wenbin decided to go all out and put on a show of a few great goals for these Obrande fans who liked him.
