Chapter 150: We Are the Champions
After the game restarted, Bayern Munich, which was behind the score, naturally wanted to attack aggressively, intending to equalize and drag it into a penalty shootout.
Moreover, Heathfield did not make any substitutions, for fear of delaying the final offensive time.
However, he didn't make substitutions, and Ralph began to make substitutions.
He didn't change anyone before, but now he started to make substitutions to delay time after scoring the goal.
Moreover, not all three of them are exchanged together, but one by one.
Bayern got the touchline ball, and Ralph had to make a substitution; Bayern got a corner, Ralph has to make a substitution; Bayern have won a free-kick and Ralph has another substitution.
Heathfield stood by with an angry face on his face, glaring at Ralph, but he could only stare at him dryly.
It was already 115 minutes when Lu Wenbin took the free throw, and after the goal, he celebrated for a while, and Ralph's substitution strategy repeatedly interrupted Bayern's attack.
Even with the one-minute stoppage time given by the referee, it was only a few minutes, and Bayern Munich did not play any decent attack at all, and was dragged by Ralph until the end of the game.
With the final whistle of the referee, the final of the 2007/2008 German FA Cup came to an end.
Hoffenheim won the first heavyweight title in the club's history with a 3-2 win over Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich in 120 minutes.
The commentators shouted:
"The game is over, the game is over, the German second division team Hoffenheim beat Bayern Munich 3-2 and really staged a dragon slaying legend and won the German Cup this season."
"A miracle, it's a miracle! A country club that has only been promoted to the Bundesliga this season has won the German Cup by defeating Bayern Munich, the Bundesliga hegemon with many superstars, in the final of the German Cup! It's an absolute miracle! Tomorrow, Hoffenheim's name will be known all over the world! ”
"The amazing Chinese Lu, he can not only score goals in the Bundesliga, but even in the German Cup final he can lead Hoffenheim to beat Bayern Munich to win the championship with two goals and one assist, Lu is a football genius from the East!"
The commentator in the Chinese webcast room also shouted: "Win, win!" Lu Wenbin's Hoffenheim won the German Cup by beating Bayern Munich with two goals and an assist from Lu Wenbin. Lu Wenbin sank the Bundesliga giant ship by himself and became famous in Europa! This is the first heavyweight title won by a Chinese player in Europe, and it definitely deserves our celebration for Lu Wenbin! ”
……
On the court, after hearing the final whistle, Lu Wenbin suddenly raised his head to the sky and roared, venting the excitement in his heart.
Although there is a lot of luck in winning this game, winning is winning, luck is an important part of football games, and Lu Wenbin doesn't care about better luck in the future.
He won his first title since arriving in Germany, not only completing the system task of the German Cup, but also adding another heavyweight honor to his star journey.
Lu Wenbin was shouting excitedly to celebrate, and the coaches and substitutes who couldn't wait on the sidelines also rushed into the stadium in an instant, hugging, diving, or shouting with the main players on the field to celebrate.
Many of Bayern Munich's stars are depressed, others are speechless, and full of disappointment.
Although Bayern is a giant, they will not be too many champions, otherwise they will not fight desperately for the Bundesliga title, the German Cup, and the Champions League every season.
Losing to a Bundesliga team, the disappointment of these famous stars can be imagined.
Reporters who had been preparing on the sidelines also rushed into the stadium to find the star they most wanted to interview for filming and interviewing.
Of course, Lu Wenbin, who scored two goals and had an assist in the final, naturally became the subject of most reporters' interviews.
"Lu, congratulations on winning the German Cup!"
"Lu, what was it like to lead the team to beat Bayern Munich in the final?"
Lu Wenbin smiled: "How do you feel? Of course I was excited! ”
Then, Lu Wenbin yelled "We are champions" and turned to celebrate with his teammates. The reporters didn't dare to stop them, so they could only chase after Lu Wenbin and take pictures of Lu Wenbin's celebration.
In the stands, all the spectators also stood up and gave Hoffenheim a round of applause.
Even those Bayern fans expressed their gentlemanly demeanor expressionlessly at this time, applauding and saluting the champion.
Hoffenheim fans even sang and danced in the stands to celebrate.
Some older Huocun fans left tears of excitement.
Founded in 1899, Hoffenheim finally won the first German Cup, which is definitely the most memorable day in the club's history.
In the VIP box, Dietmar Hope was also enjoying the congratulations of many celebrities around him.
Whether it is the whole Hoffenheim team or Lu Wenbin's individual performance, Hope is very happy and gratified.
……
On the pitch, after the Hoffenheim players and coaches celebrated wildly for a while, Ralph and Salihovic beckoned everyone to the stands gathered at Hoffenheim to thank the fans, which made the fans even more excited.
After thanking the fans for a while, the Hoffenheim and Bayern Munich players returned to the dressing room to change into new commemorative jerseys to receive their awards, which read: Champion - Hoffenheim.
Although I don't know if I will win the championship before the game, the club will definitely have to do this preparation.
No, Hoffenheim really beat Bayern Munich to win the championship, and everyone can wear such a commemorative jersey to receive the award.
The guest of honour was German football emperor Beckenbauer.
Beckenbauer is not the current president of the German Football Association, but he has a great reputation and is a well-deserved emperor of German football.
Moreover, he is also the former president of Bayern Munich and the helmsman who took Bayern to the top of Europe.
Therefore, the Football Association invited Beckenbauer as a guest of honor to present the award for the final, with the intention of allowing him to enjoy the glory of awarding the award to the club he supports.
Unexpectedly, Hoffenheim from the Bundesliga overturned everyone's good ideas, and Bayern Munich was defeated by a Bundesliga team and lost the championship.
But there was no substitution at the award ceremony that had been arranged, and Beckenbauer could only force a smile and put on the silver medals for the Bayern Munich players one by one and comfort them.
Lucio, Ribery and others received the award one by one in a depressed mood, and when they stepped down, they ripped the silver medal off their necks: no one likes silver medals.
After the runners-up were awarded, it was Hoffenheim's turn to present the winner.
Although he was a little unhappy, Beckenbauer still put on a smile on his face and put on the gold medal for each Hoffenheim player.
It was only when it was Lu Wenbin's turn that Beckenbauer showed a smile of genuine appreciation.
He said while putting on a medal for Lu Wenbin: "Lu, your age and performance surprised me. Congratulations, you deserve your championship and look forward to your better performances in the future! ”
This is the appreciation and encouragement of a successful senior to the young man he admires, and Lu Wenbin thanked Beckenbauer for his appreciation.
Then, it's time for the all-important championship trophy to be awarded.
To the applause of the audience, Salihovic received the golden German Cup trophy from Beckenbauer on behalf of Hoffenheim.
Lu Wenbin and a group of teammates surrounded Salikhovic on the podium and shouted loudly:
“3!”
“2!”
“1!”
"We are champions!"
At the same time, Salihovic held the trophy high, and blue and white color bars in the same color as the Hoffenheim emblem sprayed out from around the podium, and a group of people jumped and jumped on the podium, laughing loudly, and the song "We are the champions, we are the kings of the world" resounded throughout the audience.
