189 Wang Yifan's good start

The ninth round of the Bundesliga is over, and the scene of the standings makes people who don't often care about the progress of the Bundesliga seem unaccustomed.

Freiburg is in first place with 8 wins and 1 loss with 24 points, followed by Bayern Munich with 23 points from 7 wins and 2 draws, and RB Leipzig with 21 points from 6 wins and 3 draws.

The new season's promoted horses collectively showed their strength. On the contrary, Freiburg's opponent in the next round, the old Bundesliga powerhouse Wolfsburg, only 1 win, 3 draws, and 6 points fell into the relegation zone.

Seven months ago, the Bundesliga powerhouse that defeated Real Madrid 2-0 at home in the Champions League quarterfinals fell to this field, which is really embarrassing.

Before facing this down-and-out old powerhouse, Freiburg will play a German Cup match against old rivals Sandhausen on the 26th.

Focused, Bundesliga Streich fielded a mix of old and new line-up, Niederlechner and partner Petersen, and Dalí, Mayford, Habler and Brut in midfield. The backline consists of Günthell, Niedermeier, Gould and Ian Wivski. The goalkeeper is the No. 2 goalkeeper Gukiewicz.

With the exception of Petersen, the main striker who has not played much time, this is Freiburg's second team, and Streich's attitude of not paying attention to the result of this game is self-evident.

However, Philip, Torrejon, Schuster, Franz and Forlenbach were still on the bench and could not rule out letting them play for 20 minutes to maintain their form.

What makes Sunset happiest is that his good friend Wang Yifan is also on the bench and may be able to get some playing time.

For this reason, even Nie Lei, who was in Radotianzel, rushed to Freiburg to cheer for his mutual friend Wang Yifan with Sunset and Gu Shuo.

Nie Lei performed well in the southwest league in Radolfzell with his excellent off-ball movement and ability to grasp opportunities in front of goal. In the 12 league games that have been played, he has started 7 times and made 2 substitutes, and has scored 5 goals and 2 assists in 9 games, becoming the top scorer of FC03 Radofzell and the main player of the team.

Although Radolfzell is not strong and only ranks in the middle of the Southwest League, it is already a surprise for a small club like them, and Nie Lei's performance is considered a windfall for the club. is already talking about changing Nie Lei's short-term contract to a long-term contract, and he will also give him a significant salary increase.

This made Nie Lei, who was very confused about the future, his self-confidence greatly improved, and as soon as they met, he told Gu Shuo and Wang Yifan, who were still struggling, that even if they played in the German lower league, they should not return to China, and Nie Lei, who had played in the domestic reserve team game, thought that both sides were not playing the same football.

Sitting in the stands and watching the game together, they all hoped that Wang Yifan could get some playing time in this game, and it would be better if he could perform some more.

But no one expected that the time would come so soon.

On 19 minutes, Niederlechner, who had been holding his breath to make a performance in order to gain some playing time, was unable to do so, and had to be substituted when his foot twisted when a scramble for a header landed.

Wang Yifan unexpectedly got more than 70 minutes of playing time.

After more than half a year of training in the Freiburg echelon, although it cannot be said that it is better than these European center forwards and central defenders, it is not inferior in confrontation and physical fitness.

Because of the experience of training with a team for nearly 2 months, and the cooperation with the players on the field is not unfamiliar, at least I can cope with it normally as soon as I get on the field.

Wang Yifan played as a center forward after coming on the field, stood in a position, and could also divide the ball, but he was a little restrained but the completion was quite qualified, and he also got the applause and encouragement of the fans in the 32nd minute, which made him slowly let go of his hands and feet.

Freiburg fans have a good mentality and have been very tolerant of mistakes caused by a large number of substitutes on the field, especially young players, who will immediately give them encouraging applause when they have some outstanding performances, so that they can become more and more comfortable with the game.

In the 39th minute, Wang Yifan received a long pass from Ian Wiwski on the side, grabbed a header and ferried it to the Norwegian teenager Dali on the left side, and Dali suddenly shot a cold arrow outside the penalty area and hit the far corner to score.

In the 44th minute, Sandhausen equalized the score with a corner kick from No. 10 Passu and a header from central defender Kist.

However, this did not disappoint the Freiburg fans, who were very clear and understanding of the team's attitude towards the game, and the performance of the substitutes and young players was a surprise for them and they simply did not ask for more.

I was very interested in the emergence of a young Chinese player in the team, and he completed the assist as soon as he got on the field, and after seeing Sunset at halftime, in addition to asking for an autograph, he asked him about Wang Yifan's situation.

At the beginning of the second half, Sandhausen took advantage of Freiburg's slow entry to play a surprise attack, with Passu plugging in the middle, and American striker Woolten countering offside to form a single knife to overtake the score.

In the 63rd minute, Sandhausen striker Passou, who performed well in this game, stole a pass from Niedermeier and shot directly at the goal, rewriting the score to 1:3.

In the 76th minute, Habeler, who switched back to the left side, received a pass from Franz after a steal in front, cut inside from the bottom line, and then stabbed the goal from a small angle. The goal-scorer was clever enough to block the pace of Sandhausen goalkeeper Kenaller, who was up in the front, and contributed to the goal.

In the 81st minute, Franz suddenly broke into the penalty area with the ball on the right side, was pulled down by Sandhausen central defender Kistret, and then scored a penalty by Petersen to tie the score.

The most exciting scene occurred in the 87th minute, Habler collided with Wang Yifan in the front court, distributed the ball to Wang Yifan and continued to insert forward, Wang Yifan directly stuffed the ball back, and then rushed into the penalty area from the middle.

After breaking through the defense, Habler sent the ball into the penalty area, and Wang Yifan jumped up and smashed the pass into the goal.

Wang Yifan was not ambiguous at all when the opportunity came, and unceremoniously completed the lore of Sandhausen.

As soon as this beautiful goal was scored, Wang Yifan's next road to German football basically opened up more than half of it, and Sunset was more excited than his own goal, and jumped up directly with Nie Lei and Gu Shuo.

This footage was also captured by Sky Sports' broadcast camera, which immediately linked Wang Yifan and Sunset's identities and future achievements, and made many German middle and lower teams remember Wang Yifan's name.

Of course, Freiburg also reacted quickly, and as soon as the game ended, sporting director Hattenbach approached Wang Yifan and his agent Thomas to discuss the possibility of a formal transfer and signing.

The double happiness made the foreign football boys very happy, and directly called Habler, Dali and Follenbach out to dinner to celebrate.
