April 17, 7:30 p.m., Ruhr Stadium, German Cup semi-finals, Bochum vs. Freiburg.

Since the rules of the German Cup are a winner-or-loser, before the final, the home and away games are decided by draw, and Bochum were lucky to be drawn at home in the semi-finals, and if it was away, it would be more difficult for them to play this game.

Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich slaughtered another Bundesliga side VfL Wolfsburg 6-1 in another German Cup semi-final that was already played around yesterday at the same time yesterday, so the winner of this game will face Bayern Munich in the German Cup final at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin.

In the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals held a week ago, the Bundesliga defeated Juventus 2-0 away and defeated the opponent 4-0 on aggregate to advance to the semi-finals.

But regardless of the outcome, they will give it their all.

The match was also almost full of fans, who came to see the Bochum vs. Freiburg game, although the opponent is a Bundesliga powerhouse, the team's situation is not optimistic, they still choose to come to the scene to support the team, after all, this is the only chance they have to win the title at the moment.

"The opponent is a strong team in the Bundesliga, this game is very difficult to play!"

'I've watched their previous games, they've won three in a row in the Bundesliga, and they've scored six goals in those three games, three of which were scored by their top scorer, Kreuzer; And they have only scored one goal in these three games, so it can be said that they are in good shape. ”

'I don't expect them to win, as long as they score.'

"What do you say? Now that we're in the semi-finals, for the win, of course, come on, boys! ”

"yes, hopefully they can bring us back a championship this year!"

In addition, there are many people who choose to watch live streaming at home to support the team.

And Shen Peng's face was a little weird at this time.

Because he is going to use a morale boost (small) in this game, but the way to use this thing is to ask him to say something encouraging, and the system will add a motivational effect to these words to achieve the purpose of boosting morale.

Words of encouragement......

Shen Peng really didn't know what to say about this "encouraging word", and this kind of word was mostly said by the spiritual leader of the team, usually by the captain.

So he hesitated, but decided not to use it for the time being, and this thing would not disappear anyway.

'It's a tough game because Freiburg's two top scorers, Schmid and Kreuzer are in perfect shape, so the pressure on your defence can be a bit big; And they're very solid in defence and it's not going to be easy for you to find the back of the net, but as long as you do your best and learn from them, it's enough and the result doesn't matter. ”

Neururell says so, but who doesn't want to win? It's just that in addition to technical tactics, the head coach must also learn to decompress the players, once the pressure on the players is too much, it is easy to play abnormally.

At the moment, it seems that the pressure relief is working well, and the players look eager to try, and there is no tension at all that he imagined.

On the other side, in Freiburg's dressing room, their head coach Streich is also mobilizing, but his expression is much more relaxed.

'It was an away game, but I think we deserved to win it, against a normal Bundesliga team.

"The core of their current team is the person named Shen Peng, according to our previous tactics, in this game, Schuster you will be responsible for keeping Shen Peng in charge, as long as Shen Peng is prevented to death, their team is just a middle and lower German B team."

"Although this kind of cup competition has always been a hotbed of underdogs, you should not be too underestimated, as long as you show the form of fighting your opponent in the Bundesliga, it will not be difficult to win this game."

"Also, a few of your defenders should pay attention to preventing Shen Peng's passing, and the midfielders should pay attention to the back insertion of their midfielders, and if you find this situation, you must follow up immediately."

"Well, I've said enough about the other tactical aspects before the game, I just hope that by the end of this game, we have already reached the final of the German Cup!"

……

At the start of the first half, Bochum served first.

Scheidhauer and Glashvili immediately ran forward after serving in the centre circle, and the ball came to Gorezka after a couple of passes.

Faced with the pressure of the opposing player, Gorezka noticed that Glashvili seemed to have a free space, so he got up and passed the ball directly.

Glashvili turned around to catch the ball flying in the air, stopped with his chest, and was about to look for an opportunity, only to find someone behind him coming up and pressing it.

Of course, he was not arrogant enough to think that he could pass the opponent, so he moved with his feet, passed the ball back to Shen Peng, and then ran towards the opponent's penalty area.

Shen Peng saw the ball rolling over, and when he saw the opponent's defensive position, he suddenly remembered something, and his heart moved, and he shot directly with his feet!

He didn't use skill in this goal, but an ordinary shot.

I saw the ball pass through the two defenders of Freiburg, bounced twice on the ground, and rolled directly into the goal!

Freiburg's goalkeeper only made a save, but his reaction was noticeably slower, so even if he stretched out his hand, he was still a few centimeters away from the ball.

There was a brief silence on the pitch, followed by a landslide and tsunami of cheers.

In the opening 42 seconds, Shen Peng opened the scoring and scored the first goal for the team!

It's a fantastic start!

Neururell originally thought it would be a hard defensive battle, but Shen Peng surprised him as soon as he started, and he jumped on the sidelines with excitement.

But he immediately sensed that the goal seemed to have been seen somewhere – by the way, wasn't it the same goal Alaba scored in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Juventus?

The two goals are strikingly similar, whether it is the time of the goal, or the position and way of shooting, the only difference is that Alaba shot into the bottom right corner of the goal, while Shen Peng shot into the bottom left corner.

Not long after I talked about it, this kid was applied to actual combat, good boy!

The coach of Freiburg next to him, Streich, obviously did not expect the team to be scored by the opponent at the beginning, and immediately yelled on the sidelines, in his opinion, the goal should not have been scored at all.

Whether it was just starting and not getting into the state, or underestimating the enemy and being negligent, in short, he had to quickly remind the players to get serious.
