The second round of the Bundesliga is quietly coming in the midst of intense preparations from all the players in Karlsruhe, who will take on Kaiserslautern at 2pm on Tuesday.

In fact, when Karlsruhe was studying how to deal with Kaiser, Kaiser's head coach Stephen was also studying Karlsruhe, although the first game of the league was a 4:0 victory, but it was the goalkeeper Wu Feng who made 8 super saves in a row that caught his attention.

Kaiserslautern is also now struggling with how to break down Wu Feng's goal, and in order to find a way to win, Stephen also specially found the video of Wu Feng's game, but to Stephen's surprise, there was only one warm-up game and two video footage of the first round of the game.

At this time, he found out that Wu Feng was just a newcomer, and he couldn't help but secretly sigh at Becker's good luck, sitting and waiting for geniuses to join.

Despite the headache, Stephen still spent a week rehearsing the new tactics, and this time they also carried out defensive counterattacks, determined not to take the initiative to attack first, Burghausen is their example, and winning a point away is his goal.

Speaking in the pre-match press conference, Becker said: "This is our first home game in Karlsruhe and although Kaiserslautern is strong, we are vowed to take all three points in this game and we will respond to the fans who supported us with three points. ”

Coach Kaiser was very modest and did not say anything about scoring a few goals, "Coming to Wilder Park to face us, our goal is to get a point, after all, I also watched the last game, and Wood's goal is not so easy to break." When we didn't have confidence anymore, we chose to take just one point, the league is still long, we can't be careless. ”

Joss Zeitung, a reporter for the Karlsruhe Zeitung, disagreed, asking: "Is it necessary for Kaiser, as a first-class team in the German Second Division, to be so conservative?" You know you're a team that has won the Bundesliga. ”

Stephen said with a smile: "This friend also said that we are the team that won the Bundesliga, but we are in the Bundesliga now and what we have to do is first of all to qualify for the Bundesliga this season, so every point is important for us. In today's game, we will aim to get a point. ”

In the face of criticism from the media and fans, Stephen no longer made any remarks, as a coach he must think about the whole season, not just a game or two wins and losses, rather than trying his best to get a point that may not get a point, it is better to easily win a point and save more energy for the next games.

At 7 p.m. on the 21st, the more than 36,000 seats in the Wilder Park stadium were almost full, and nearly 30,000 Karlsruhe fans sat in the stands and kept cheering for their team.

Instead of using the 3-4-1-2 formation of the previous game, Becker switched to the traditional 5-3-2 defensive formation.

Goalkeeper: Wu Feng

Defenders: Eichner, Stoll, Boden, Dick, Franz

Midfielders: Federico, Polcello, Booker

Forwards: Freis, Capalani

Kaiserslautern used a traditional 4-4-2 line-up, which can be attacked and defended, and Becker saw the implications, which was a test to test them, and if there was an opportunity, then take the opportunity to take the three points, otherwise rely on the defense to only need a point.

At this moment, Becker had to sigh, Stephen is really an old fox, he wants to win this game, it seems that the defensive counterattack is not necessarily enough, but the lineup has been arranged, and it can only change in the second half.

Kaiserslautern's line-up

Goalkeeper: Ernst

Defenders: Blanco, Dam, Belec, Ruyt

Midfielders: Bellinghausen, Nelinger, Liald, Bowmer

Forwards: Jankel, Sanogo

Karlsruhe actually sent five defenders, which made the commentator Jermais, a little strange, and he questioned: "Coach Becker is a bit conservative in today's lineup, although he is facing a first-class team in the Bundesliga, but today is our home field, we still have team, and we can completely let go of the play." Now that Karlsruhe has only three midfielders, we may have a lot less possession, is Mr. Becker intimidated by Kaiser's team? Regardless of the result, I don't want the players to play too conservatively at our home stadium, but we're going to make it to Karlsruhe in the first division. But Mr. Becker has his own ideas, and it's hard to say anything at the moment, so let's wait and see. ”

Stephen on the other side of the field was also shocked when he saw Karlsruhe's lineup, and he couldn't imagine that the opponent actually wanted to stabilize his position first, which was somewhat the same as his mood when he only scored one point.

This formation made him a little bit want to attack and try, anyway, Karlsruhe sent not enough attacking players, in the face of his own defensive line, he may not be able to break through, fight by himself, maybe he can win three points, after a shock, there is a trace of joy in his heart.

However, Stephen didn't plan to attack at the beginning for the time being, and decided to play the original plan for twenty minutes first, if that was the case, then he would attack unceremoniously, after all, who wouldn't want to win.

Young people play inconsistently, Wu Feng played well in the last game, this one is not necessarily the same magical, as long as Yankel and Sanogo can score first, he can slowly play with Becker, thinking of this, the corner of Stephen's mouth showed a smile.

Before the game even started, the fans in Karlsruhe cheered excitedly, and their biggest hope for this match was Wu Feng. For fans, Wu Feng is more reliable than forwards Capalani and Freis.

"Woo! Five! Five! This kind of crying has not stopped from the beginning, for this peculiar surname, although the Germans do not understand it very well, but it does not prevent them from calling vigorously, and now Karlsruhe fans can already shout Wu Feng's somewhat peculiar surname pronunciation clearly.

There weren't too many fans in the away stadium who didn't have the full enthusiasm for such an away game against Karlsruhe. After all, they have experienced the top league such as the Bundesliga, and they have won the Bundesliga title, and they don't value the second round of the Bundesliga very much, as their manager Stefan said, the league has just begun.

Seeing the Karlsruhe fans chanting the strange name of the Chinese goalkeeper at the beginning, the fans of Kaiserslautern couldn't help but say disdainfully, "Tubaozi, I haven't seen the world, and I regard a goalkeeper as a savior, what kind of competitiveness does such a team have!" ”

In their view, football is all about attacking to win.
