In the 43rd minute, Bayer Leverkusen full-back Kadlec grabbed the ball from Copado and passed it to striker Kroos.

Kroos drove in long on the flank, broke past Jaisler and headed in a low cross for Bayer Leverkusen centre-forward Kiessling to grab the first spot in a scramble with Hoffenheim centre-back Jankel and head the ball to the back post.

Striker Helmers shook off Gustavo's defence and followed up with a push down the middle to find the ball into Hoffenheim's goal.

Bayer Leverkusen equalised to make it 1-1.

Minutes after Bayer Leverkusen's goal, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half and the two sides went into the break with a 1-1 scoreline.

After 15 minutes of halftime, the two sides changed sides and fought again, and Lu Wenbin was still closely guarded by his opponent.

In the second half of the season, although Lu Wenbin's attributes have improved, because of the attention of the opponent, Lu Wenbin's goals have not improved compared with the first half of the season, but have declined.

However, it is only a decline, not a disappearance.

No one can really prevent Lu Wenbin, who runs as much as 19/19 without the ball in 90 minutes, so that he can't get any chance to shoot.

Not long after the start of the second half, in the 53rd minute, Gustavo cut off Augusto's ball and passed it to Salihovic, and Hoffenheim played a counterattack.

Lu Wenbin shook off the close defense of Rolfes and Friedrich, and received a pass from captain Salihovic in an offside position to form a single knife.

However, the place where Lu Wenbin received the ball was near the midfield, far from the forbidden area, and the goalkeeper Adler did not abandon the goal, and Lu Wenbin could not play a hanging shot, so he could only move forward with the ball.

But Lu Wenbin's speed is really tough, let alone with a ball.

Therefore, when approaching the top of the arc of the forbidden area, Lu Wenbin was still chased by Friedrich, who had just thrown away, and a tackle interception from the side defense was about to break Lu Wenbin's attack.

When Lu Wenbin saw Friedrich out of his eyes, Friedrich's foot was about to touch the ball.

didn't have time to think about it, Lu Wenbin could only slide the ball forward first, and then prepare to jump up and dodge.

But the time was too fast, Lu Wenbin had just slipped the ball out, and before he could fully jump, Friedrich's foot arrived.

Lu Wenbin hung on Friedrich's lap on his toes, and his body lost his center of gravity and threw himself forward, looking like he was about to fall.

Commentator Dickenson suddenly said regretfully: "Friedrich caught up with Lue, tackle and intercept!" Lew was about to fall, and Hoffenheim lost a one-on-one chance. ”

The rest of Hoffenheim's players and fans in the stands also showed regret that the opportunity was gone.

The referee also picked up the whistle and was ready to blow for Friedrich's foul, because instead of tackling the ball, he tackled the opposing player.

However, just when everyone thought that Lu Wenbin was going to fall to the ground and Friedrich was going to be judged to be a foul, Lu Wenbin, who fell to the ground, did not give up.

He felt he could catch the ball and shot it well.

So, in the process of falling down, he put his hands on the ground, staggered on the ground and crawled two steps, and then slammed his hands hard, and then suddenly stood up and continued to chase the ball.

The referee who shouted the whistle saw it, immediately gave up blowing the whistle, and raised his hands flat to signal that the game continued.

Enrique, the central defender who was chasing back at the same time as Friedrich, saw that Lu Wenbin was about to be tackled by Friedrich, so he slowed down and was about to stop, but he didn't expect Lu Wenbin to give up, and the referee didn't blow the whistle.

Enrique was suddenly shocked, and quickly accelerated to catch up, but he could only keep up with Lu Wenbin, who had already run, pulling and colliding, and could not rush in front to destroy the ball.

Goalkeeper Adler also abandoned the goal in shock, trying to grab the ball before Lu Wenbin.

But Lu Wenbin's movements were really too unexpected for everyone, and Adler and Enrique were both a little slower to react.

Otherwise, when Lu Wenbin was hung up by Friedrich and stumbled two steps, they should have been able to grab the ball.

As a result, Lu Wenbin's unexpected persistence and misjudgment led to the loss of the goal.

Lu Wenbin carried Enrique's charge into the forbidden area, fell to the ground and stabbed his toe before Adler, and the ball drilled under Adler's crotch and rolled into the goal.

Enrique, who wanted to learn from Friedrich's side tackle, also failed to tackle the ball, and the ball was stabbed by Lu Wenbin before his foot arrived, but his own instep was kicked by Lu Wenbin's toe after poking the ball.

Then Lu Wenbin, Enrique, and Adler fell into a ball, and then Enrique was still holding his instep and screaming in pain.

The referee circled his finger and blew the whistle for the goal.

“Tooooooooooooooooooooor……”

Dickenson let out a long roar and then excitedly commented: "Lou was not tackled by Friedrich, his persistence paid off, he got the ball into the net before Enrique and Adler, and Hoffenheim regained the lead!" ”

On the sidelines, in the stands, in front of the television, countless Hoffenheim supporters cheered.

Paljic, Demba Ba, Salihovic and others rushed to the 'Big Forbidden Zone' and pulled Lu Wenbin, who was held down by Adler, up and celebrated.

As for Enrique, who is still hugging the instep of his feet, he is not in the scope of Hoffenheim's players' concern!

Anyway, Lu Wenbin did not foul, and Enrique could only consider himself unlucky.

However, after a little celebration at Hoffenheim, Enrique stood up. In fact, he didn't have any big problems, he just wanted to deceive the referee to see if he could sentence Lu Wenbin for a foul.

Seeing that his careful thinking didn't work, he could only quickly stand up and prepare for tee-off.

After all, it was Bayer Leverkusen who were behind now and they had to hurry up for an equaliser.

Bayer Leverkusen restarted the ball and launched an attack on Hoffenheim's goal in an attempt to equalise.

However, Nelsson did perform very well today, and with the occasional drop back of Copado and Salihovic up front, Leverkusen was disrupted on several occasions before they could form a shot.

Even with three successful shots, only one hit the woodwork and was saved by Ozjan.

Of course, we can't ignore the role of Lu Wenbin.

Although he couldn't continue to score, if he stayed in front, he would have to draw the defensive attention of at least two or three opponents, and he couldn't press forward to assist.

Coupled with the involvement of Paljic and Demba Ba, Leverkusen's backline did not dare to step forward at all, resulting in not very strong attacking force.

In the final minutes, Hoffenheim failed to score again, but Bayer Leverkusen could not equalize and dragged the game into extra time.

After 90 minutes, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the match as Hoffenheim progressed to the 2008/2009 German Cup final with a 2-1 win away at Bayer Leverkusen thanks to goals from Lu Wenbin and Demba Ba in the German Cup semi-finals.
