In the 1/8 final of the German Cup against Rostock, Hoffenheim played 442 tactics.

The two starting strikers were the main centre-forward No. 19 Vedad Ibisevic and the No. 17 substitute striker Tobias Weiss.

Ibisevic, who is 188cm tall, burst forward to make a fulcrum, and Weiss, who is only 170cm tall but has good speed, hides behind Ibisevic and waits for an opportunity to shoot.

In order to keep his strength for the next league game, the two main strikers of No. 29 Demba Ba and No. 20 Obasi did not even enter the squad.

After Weiss fired another good ball from Ibisevic wide of the post, Ralph Rangnick slapped himself on the head.

Although the German Cup is not in sight, if Hoffenheim can beat the first division team to advance to the next round, it will also be good for the confidence of the whole team and to compete for the top three in the table in the second half of the season.

Therefore, Ralph Rangnick still wants to win.

After seeing another goalmouth shot from Weiss, Ralph decided to switch to a more accurate striker.

So, after he turned around and glanced at the bench, he said to Lu Wenbin: "Lu, go warm up!" ”

In fact, Lu Wenbin was already anxious on the bench.

If Hoffenheim can't beat Rostock to advance to the next round, he will say goodbye to Mission 10 and Mission 11 in advance.

However, as a pure newcomer to the first team, he can't go and say to the manager, "Replace me". Not to mention him, not even those absolute main forces have the courage to do this.

Even if you have the courage to say it, you won't get it! Because this is a challenge to the authority of the head coach and the arrangement of the troops, negating the previous tactics and personnel arrangements of the head coach.

Under normal circumstances, not only will they not be approved, but they will also be beaten into the cold by the head coach.

If this authority is not guaranteed, how can a manager control the team?

Probably only that kind of ball bully dares to interfere with the head coach's arrangement and personnel arrangement as a player!

There is no such ball bully in Hoffenheim at present, and Lu Wenbin is not either, he can only wait for Ralph to take the initiative to replace him.

Hearing Ralph tell him to warm up, Lu Wenbin finally relieved himself and quickly took off his coat and warmed up on the sidelines.

A few minutes later, Lu Wenbin was called to Ralph's side to arrange tactics and tasks.

Ralph said to Lu Wenbin: "Lu, you can replace Weiss later." When you come on the pitch, you play Weiss's position, run around Ibisevic, let Ibisevic play the ball for you, and then use your precision to shoot. Whenever you have the opportunity, give me a knock on the door, and don't be afraid to waste the opportunity. ”

Lu Wenbin nodded and stood on the sidelines, waiting for the chance of a dead ball.

In the 77th minute, Rostock won a sideline ball, the fourth official played a substitution sign, and the live broadcast began to broadcast: "Hoffenheim substitution, No. 17 Tobias Weiss, No. 90 Lu Wenbin up." ”

After seeing the substitution sign, Weiss ran over, high-fived Lu Wenbin expressionlessly, and then walked to the bench and sat down, ready to see Lu Wenbin's performance.

He knew he didn't play well in this game, so he was replaced by the coach. But if you change a 17-year-old player, will you be able to perform better than yourself and help the team win against Rostock?

Weiss didn't think Lu Wenbin could do it.

The training ground is a training ground, and a real game is very different from training.

Weiss was ready to see the jokes of Lu Wenbin and the head coach.

Seeing Lu Wenbin replace Weiss, the audience in the stands had different expressions.

Most of the villagers in Hoffenheim knew Lu Wenbin, knew that he was Chinese, and knew his outstanding performance in the last three games of the youth team, so they gave Lu Wenbin warm applause and shouts to cheer him on.

Other fans who had travelled from Rhine-Neckar County or Sinsheim were amazed by the excessively young No. 90 yellow man.

"Where did this 90 come from, and why haven't I seen it before?"

'It could be a new player Ralph has just come up from the youth team.

"So young, I'm afraid I'm not even 18 years old, right? The height is about the same as Weiss, but the body size doesn't look as strong as Weiss, will he be knocked down? ”

"Yes, now the score is scorching, if such a young player comes up, will he be weak?"

In addition to those fans who didn't know Lu Wenbin, the players of the Rostock team also felt a little contemptuous of Lu Wenbin's play.

Although Lu Wenbin's height of 171cm is about the same as Weis, he is barely qualified. But his weight of 62kg is far from Weiss's weight of 68kg, so he looks a little thin.

Such a young, thin short Asian player, I'm afraid he will fall down as soon as he hits him, right?

With this in mind, as the game continued, Rostock tilted their defensive focus a little towards Ibisevic.

In fact, Lu Wenbin's body does not have the same advantage as the domestic high school league when facing the Bundesliga team in the Bundesliga and even the Copa del Rey.

However, the 13/13 physique is not a weak physique, and it is not the appearance that it will fall down as soon as it seems on the surface.

If that were the case, Ralph wouldn't have sent Lu Wenbin on the field.

As long as he doesn't get knocked down, Lu Wenbin has a chance to complete the shot.

In the 83rd minute, Lu Wenbin got such an opportunity.

It was a counter-attacking opportunity from Hoffenheim, and after the ball was kicked up front by No.3 defender Jaisler, centre-forward Ibisevic headed the ball over to No.33 striker Carlos Eduardo in a tussle with the opposing player.

Eduardo is a Brazilian player with excellent technique and a threat when he scored a goal in the first half.

Therefore, seeing that it was Eduardo who received the ball, the two closest Rostock defenders rushed towards him at the same time, causing Lu Wenbin to be in a short unguarded gap.

Eduardo saw Lu Wenbin's position, shook off an angle and stuffed the ball straight into the big penalty area.

At the same time, Lu Wenbin rushed diagonally towards the penalty area and stood out from Rostock's back line: anti-offside.

It was only then that the Rostock players realized that they had missed someone, and Brooks, the nearest No. 5 defender, immediately turned back to defend and rushed in the direction of the ball.

As the distance approached, Brooks found that Lu Wenbin was slightly ahead of him, and it was a little difficult for him to grab the ball before Lu Wenbin.

So, he changed his mind, put his hands behind his back when he was about to enter the forbidden area, and bumped into Lu Wenbin with his body.

It's a reasonable ram move.
