Chapter 197: St. Pauli and Niels

"When you go through a storm...... You'll never walk alone......" Nils was rarely as amused as usual, he looked extremely serious today, and Ye Xin beside him heard him muttering along with the huge singing sound coming from outside.

"Nils? Are you alright?" Ye Xin frowned.

Hearing Ye Xin's concern, Nils raised his head, he smiled reluctantly, shook his head again and said, "It's okay"

"Let's go, the game is on" Seeing that Ye Xin still wanted to ask, Nils stood up and walked to the players' tunnel.

It seems that there is still a story between Nils and St. Pauli, but why there is nothing unusual when he talks to himself about St. Pauli in the first place.

But since Nils didn't want to say more, Ye Xin wouldn't ask more.

In the players' tunnel, although the two teams were only separated by one to the fence, in the first few minutes of waiting for the game, Ye Xin could clearly feel that a small number of young players in St. Pauli were looking at Niels.

They all know Nils obviously, not in the same way that they know the national team internationals, but as if they know old acquaintances.

"Niels ......" Finally, one of the players of St. Pauli said hello to Niels, but Ye Xin was puzzled by the appearance of wanting to speak.

At this time, Nils smiled and didn't answer him, he just rolled up his sleeve to reveal a tattoo on his arm, and then fell silent.

A black pirate flag consisting of a skull and two crossed thigh bones.

It's just that the skull has a big fork on it.

Ye Xin has seen this tattoo on Nils many times, but tattoos seem to be a very popular thing in Germany, so he didn't ask Nils about the meaning of this tattoo, but today it seems that there are many stories between Nils and St. Pauli.

It's also rare to see Nils become so serious.

The player who had just wanted to say a few words to Nils just sighed and returned to his team.

The atmosphere between the two teams suddenly cooled down.

Fortunately, the two teams did not wait too long and walked out of the stadium under the guidance of the staff.

The Ernst Abbe Stadium suddenly boiled, and the Jena fans, who had just been suppressed by the St. Pauli anthem for a while, finally burst out with their greatest energy, singing that they can't win you, and cheering We won't admit defeat.

The St. Pauli fans, on the other hand, ignored the cheers of the Jena fans and continued to sing the team anthem over and over again.

Ye Xin couldn't understand this kind of persistence, but the low sadness made him feel awe-inspired, and the meaning of the lyrics also made him suddenly have a deeper understanding of football.

Football doesn't seem to be just a game.

Just as he lamented the persistence of the St. Pauli fans, he did not notice that there was a pair of eyes on him in the St. Pauli dugout.

Mike Boskens, St. Pauli's rookie manager, took over Andre after St. Pauli's president Stefan Oss took his place.

Before working at St. Pauli, he inquired about the reason for Andre's expulsion, the poor record, the unknown person, and the main factor of the unknown person is the goalkeeper in front of him who is the No. 30 jersey of Jena.

After the last match between Jena and Aachen, he was also the main figure in the incident in which Aachen fans made trouble with the former head coach of Aachen.

As soon as he entered the German Second Division, there was a lot of uproar, so about Ye Xin, he took a good look at his past games.

After reading it, he immediately summed up four words.

Rare.

For a manager who doesn't like to praise his players, it's not easy to say that from Mike Boskens.

And his predecessor Andre did miss out on a strong player.

However, Mike Boskens will not think that Jena's goalkeeper from China is invincible because of a little shock, no matter how strong the striker is, there are times when he does not score, and naturally no matter how strong the goalkeeper is, there are times when he scores.

He also watched Aachen's game, and although Ye Xin's various goalkeeping performances were very good, Mike Boskens scoffed.

He didn't know why a manager could indulge his goalkeeper with such juggling movements and attitudes to face the goalkeeper.

Completely unqualified, this can only be performed when bullying the weak team, and can only be regarded as a clown when encountering a strong team.

Although he was like this in the early stage of those shots in Germany, but his goalkeeping actions were much more regular later, and at this time, Mike Boskens still admired Ye Xin very much, and he could realize that it was very professional to face the attacking players by subtracting the fancy movements.

Unexpectedly, when he first entered the German Second Division, he seemed to show off that he had an attack, and once again used that kind of bells and whistles to win people's attention.

Do you think that after bullying the rookies of Debing, they feel that they have capital?

Thinking of this, Mike Boskens shook his head regretfully, he had seen too many players like this, the lower league was smooth, and when he got to the slightly higher league, he was blown up, and then his confidence collapsed, and he could no longer gallop in the senior league.

Such players will either choose to leave football or continue to play in the lower leagues.

It's a pity that a good seedling.

If he was in his own hands, Mike Bockens would never have allowed him to do these individualistic goalkeeping moves, and until now he has not found Ye Xin to interact with the defender defensively, and the defensive command has not appeared once.

He doesn't seem to know anything that a good goalkeeper should know, such as filling positions, attacking, etc., and just relies on the reaction and prediction brought by his talent to guard the door.

It's all a wild way.

However, glancing at Haike on the Jena coach's seat, he smiled faintly, and he couldn't blame Ye Xin, after all, it was not bad for a team composed of some third-rate coaches to do this.

Jena probably doesn't even have a dedicated goalkeeper coach.

Mike Boskens did guess correctly that Jena did not have a dedicated goalkeeper coach, but that didn't make Heiko want to hire another goalkeeper coach.

At the beginning, he thought the same as Mike Boskens, Ye Xin's movements were not standard, and his defensive posture was wrong, but with one game after another, Ye Xin explained one thing to Haike.

It's that no matter how bad his football foundation is and how exaggerated his actions are, he just can't let others score.

Over time, Haike felt that there was no need to correct any actions for him, perhaps that was Ye Xin's most comfortable defensive move.

In fact, Mike Boskens and Heiko both guessed wrong, Ye Xinxin's non-standard actions are not because he is showing off or because the movements are comfortable, but because he chooses often the fastest and most effective movements.

The escalation of his moves against Aachen only strengthened his mind.
