Chapter 122: The Debut

The match between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich is part of the German Youth League, and this is the first time the two teams have met in a season. Borussia Dortmund are currently in eighth place, while Bayern Munich are in second place, and the difference in quality between the two teams is as clear as this ranking. Recently Bayern had a young goalscorer in the squad who scored ten goals in four games over fifteen days! His efficient goals made him the top scorer in the youth league and caught the attention of Bayern's first team.

In this game, Bayern also came to shoot the whole game, just to let the head coach Magath have a deeper understanding of the youngster's ability.

Jose Paulo Guerrerogonzales, whose name is from Peru, came to Munich in 2002 alone, leaving the domestic Lima team as a professional player and joining the Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich as an apprentice. During these two years, he trained hard for the Munich youth team and played for the team in the amateur league...... In short, do your best to prove yourself.

Now he's starting to shine in the youth league, and the path of football he's been pursuing is finally coming to him.

Compared with Van Mawek's goalkeeper headache, Bayern head coach Magath is worried about the striker. Dutchman Roymakaay is in great form, but unfortunately he is prone to injury. Paraguayan striker Roquesantacruzcantero has suffered a serious injury and will be out for three months. And the Iranian Vahidhashemian, who was bought in this summer, has been unable to integrate into the team. At the moment, Magath only has two strikers available, Mackay and Claudiomiguelpizarro, and if any one of them has a three-strong and two-short, it will cost him his life. Thankfully, Guerreiro was at the youth level at this time, and he has scored thirteen goals in the youth league this season, which is an astonishing efficiency.

Magath naturally took his eye on the twenty-year-old, and after three consecutive games of scrutiny, Magath decided to take another look at him, and if he continued to perform so well, he would move Guerreiro to the first team.

And this game is the match between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich youth.

One game decides the future of two youths.

β€»β€»β€»

Borussia Dortmund's youth boys were particularly positive in their pre-match warm-ups, as first-team manager Donny van Mawek was sitting in the dugout, chatting with Rheinberg next to him.

Anke was warming up under the guidance of the goalkeeper coach and he also knew that Van Mawek was watching him from the sidelines. Be sure to behave well and let him remember himself.

The coach kicked a half-high ball to Anke's left side, Anke flew and pounced, and could have held it directly, but he slipped his hand and let the football bounce to the goalpost, and let it go!

The coach smiled: "Ann, I know what you're thinking, but there's nothing to be nervous about. ”

Anke picked up the football and kicked it back to the coach, muttering to herself, "It's strange that you know!" Where am I nervous? ”

Anke really wasn't nervous, he was too excited.

As soon as he thought that he could be selected by Van Mawijk and be selected for the first team, become a real professional player, make several times more money than now, and it is much better than returning to China after college to find a job, when the time comes, he will not only support himself, but also support his parents, buy a villa, buy a sports car, let his parents retire early and enjoy the blessings at home, and he will also be interviewed by reporters, newspapers, and TV when he returns to China...... He was shaking with excitement, how could he just grab the ball?

β€»β€»β€»

The game began, and since it was a youth team game, not many people came to watch the game, and many of the people present were scouts from various clubs. Bayern's assistant coach picked a good position, set up the camera and began to faithfully record Guerreiro's 90 minutes.

Van Mawijk also sat up straight and locked his eyes on goalkeeper Anke, who wanted to carefully observe how capable the Chinese, who was strongly recommended by Rheinberg. In fact, he did not have much expectations, as long as he could barely reach the level of the Bundesliga, he would move Anke to the first team, and he would last for two months until Weidenfeller returned from injury.

At the beginning of the game, there were no waves on the field, and both sides were testing each other. Occasionally, a few long-range shots were either blocked by a defender or either high or deflected. Anke has not had a chance to perform except for the goal kick so far, he was in a hurry, so he almost asked the defender to pass him back directly, and then ran away with the ball towards the opponent's goal.

Guerrero received a through ball from the midfielder, he got past the defender and then slotted into the box, one-on-one!

Well done! Anke was overjoyed in his heart, and then planned to abandon the door, but as soon as he rushed out two steps, he saw that the other party had the intention of shooting directly! Standing in place again in a hurry, Guerrero's left foot seemed to hit the near corner, Anke did not hesitate to pounce on the near corner, but Guerrero buckled the ball, changed his right foot, and shot!

The soccer ball arcs and flies towards the far corner!

Anke was too late to react at this time, he could only watch the football fly past him and then burrow into the far corner of the goal!

In the first 22 minutes, Bayern Munich led 1:0!

And this conceded goal stems from Anke's hesitation when he attacked, and suddenly stopped during the attack, which is a one-on-one taboo, which can only give the opponent a chance. Anke was too excited just now, and wanted to rush out to perform as soon as he saw the other party pass the defender, not considering that the other party was still seventeen meters away from him at this time, this distance was enough for the other party to do anything, and there was already a defender behind him catching up, Anke could take a look at the situation and make a decision.

For this conceded goal, Van Mawejk shook his head at the following view: This goalkeeper is too frizzy, how can an unsteady goalkeeper keep the goal well? Looks like he's still young!

Although Rheinberg was also very dissatisfied with Anke's low-level mistake at the critical moment, he saw Van Mawijk shaking his head, and hurriedly explained: "He's just a little nervous, maybe I shouldn't tell him the news you're coming......"

But Van Marwijk still shook his head: "No, no. A goalkeeper is not a good goalkeeper if he is nervous under pressure. ”

Anke, who had lost the ball, didn't even look back to watch the game, but looked directly at the coach's bench on the sidelines. When he saw Van Mawijk shaking his head, he suddenly chuckled in his heart, it's over! Left a bad impression in the manager's mind, there was no hope for the first team; The interview was hopeless; The villa is hopeless; There's no hope for a girlfriend anymore...... He was going to die with remorse in his heart, why did he stop at that time? Even if the attack is wrong, you have to rush forward in one go!

"Stupid!" Suddenly a loud shout woke Anke up, and also attracted the attention of the others, a lewd old man was standing in the stands and yelling into the arena. "You're a disgrace to me! How did I teach such an apprentice as you! ”

"Drunken old man?!" Anke was surprised that it was the first time he had come to see his game. I hadn't seen him since I "graduated" from him three months earlier, and I had only heard Rheinberg say that he had left Dortmund to earn money elsewhere. But why did he suddenly appear here today? Could it be that he was fired again?

"Who told you you could brake when you attack?! What's going on in your head? A sucker! Oliver was still scolding, leaving others dumbfounded. I don't understand what the relationship between him and Anke is, and I thought it was a drunk who came here to make trouble.

"He's ......," Van Marwijk asked, pointing to Oliver, to Rheinberg.

"Oliver Odeh, Anke's goalkeeper coach before he came into our team."

"An alcoholic?" Oliver's rosacea is as conspicuous as a red light at an intersection, and others can guess his "occupation" at a glance. Van Mawijk spoke with obvious disbelief, if this was the case, then a student taught by an alcoholic would not be much better.

Reinberg sensed the disdain in Van Mawijk's tone, and he still said politely: "At the same time, he is also the goalkeeper coach of the German national team's main goalkeeper Oliver Kahn. ”

This sentence startled Van Marwijk, he could not know who the drunkard was, but he could not have known Oliver Kahn. As one of the best goalkeepers in the world at the moment, he almost single-handedly brought the underdogs Germany to the final in the 2002 World Cup, and won the Yashin Award, and became the first great goalkeeper ever to win the World Cup Golden Ball. If this man was really Karn's Initiation Coach, then Anke, who was also his student...... He had to take a fresh look at the young man who was "communicating" loudly with Oliver.

"Hey, old man, why are you here?" Anke shouted at the stands.

"Less nonsense! The game is about to start, put your mind on the game! "If Oliver had a bottle in his hand now, he wouldn't hesitate to throw it at Anke's idiot.

β€»β€»β€»

The game started again, and after being scolded by Oliver like this, Anke sobered up. There are too many things in his head, which is really not conducive to his own performance, not to mention how can he be sure that the manager is disappointed in him after only one mistake?

Bayern is coming again, and Guerrero is again. Maybe he knew that there was a team of people watching him, so he was extra active today.

After dunking a defender, Guerrero shoots hard!

But this time Anke didn't let him score again, he flew to the side, grasped the incoming ball firmly in his hands, and then landed, folded his arms, and leaned on, holding the football firmly in his arms.

Since a mistake has made a bad impression on the manager, I have to redeem my image through performance. This time in my future, I will hold it firmly in my hands and never let it go!

β€»β€»β€»

That save Van Mawek thought it was just a reaction that any good goalkeeper could make, and it didn't mean anything, and he had to keep watching. But in the remaining time, the surprised expression on Van Mawijk's face became more and more obvious, the goalkeeper called "Anke" seemed to be getting more and more courageous, he could shoot any kind of goal, Bayern never scored a goal again after scoring the first goal, and this is almost all due to Anke!

Bayern shoots from outside the box! The ball hit the defender's leg and changed the line, but Anke didn't stop the ball, he pounced in the opposite direction! The soccer ball bouncing off to Guerrero on the other side!

Will this goal be scored?

Guerrero was clearly unprepared, he should have pushed the empty goal, but the foot he raised in a hurry stopped the ball a little wider. When he played again, Anke pounced like lightning, and with a flick of his fingers, the ball went over the crossbar and landed on the net!

The goal didn't go in!

Anke got up from the ground under Guerrero's surprised gaze, and then spit out the grass clippings in his mouth with all his mightβ€”he had just fallen head-on to the ground in order to save the ball, without even a cushion, and landed in a real "dog-gnawed mud" style. "Phew! Bah! It's not simple, it's not simple! Anke's teammates are used to this sentence, which is the sequelae of watching too much of this comic, and Anke puts the anime lines on his lips when he has nothing to do, but it's not the same thing as what he said at all. But the first time Guerrero heard it, and it was when he saw Anke magically counterattack back, the shock can be imagined. He took Anke's casual words seriously!

Oh, my God! Is this goalkeeper still human? It was almost a blink of an eye to pounce back from the right to the left, and he still retained his strength! Yourself, can you really shoot through his ten fingers?

Van Mawijk didn't hear Anco's gibberish, but he was no less shocked than Guerrero. He was a bystander, so he saw the whole process very clearly.

The opponent shoots at goal, and Anke pounces in the right direction. If nothing else, he will get the football without any suspense. But at this time, the Dortmund defender stretched out his foot to block the ball, and the ball hit his calf headbone and bounced to the other side. And this one is Aoanco who just fell to the ground.

Guerrero stopped the ball, and by this time Anco was already quickly getting up from the ground. Just as Guerrero swung his foot, he flew and lunged in the direction behind him. When the ball arrives, the ball jumps up and pops out of the goal.

It should be said that Guerrero's stop adjustment gave Anke time to pounce back, and if he pushed directly, nothing would have happened. But even so, being able to make such a quick and accurate movement in such a short period of time, that reflex nerve and that spirit of never giving up is not something that any goalkeeper can have, right?

Van Marwijk is also a coach who excels at developing young players, and from his observation in the first half, he can basically confirm that this goalkeeper has what it takes to become the world's top goalkeeper.

It was only in the first half that he decided to let Anke report to the first team tomorrow, and let him replace the injured Romanweidenfeller as the main goalkeeper.

In the second half, Anke continued his heroic play and continued to command the defense loudly. In comparison, Guerrero, who flashed once in the 22nd minute of the game, was much bleaker. Even the assistant coach in charge of the video pointed the camera directly at Anke, this game was not Guerrero's bad performance, but he met the Chinese goalkeeper.

β€»β€»β€»

At the end of the game, Dortmund, who had been pressed and beaten, could not equalize in the end, but under Anke's almost crazy performance, they did not concede another goal. The score remained at 0:1 after the 22nd minute until the end of the game.

When the game was over, Anke was called in front of Van Mawijk under the envious eyes of his teammates.

"Tomorrow you're going straight to training with the first team, Ann." Van Mawijk said to Anco.

Only this sentence made Anke almost ecstatic, and he nodded desperately: "Okay, sir! Yes, sir! Yes, sir! ”

Van Marwijk smiled and didn't say anything about Anco's gaffe. From his surname, he is an extrovert and a game-type goalkeeper. The more difficult the goalkeeper is to play, the stronger the opponent, the better he plays, and the psychological quality is good. The frizz problem can be reminded of him in training and games, but it is also an experience problem, and when he plays more games, the problem naturally disappears.

In the next round, four days from September 18, Dortmund will face fierce rivals Bayern Munich at their home stadium of Westphalia. With two wins, one draw and one defeat just one draw away from Bayern's worst start in 25 years, Magath and the rest of the squad are feeling the pressure as they take on Borussia Dortmund this time away and will not be willing to settle for a draw, desperately needing a win to get themselves out of their current awkward position.

And this match is also a great time to test Anke. To be able to win Van Mawejk's trust once and for all, the first step in his own football path will be crucial. And this match was also selected by Germany and China as the live TV broadcast, and it is believed that Anke will become a household name in China. That's exactly what he wanted.

But if you fail, you will not only face pressure from the team, but also face criticism from fans all over China, ridicule, and even pressure from parents.

The question is, in the face of pressure, between defeat and fame, which path will his actions take him?

There are so many possible surnames in football, no matter how arrogant Anke is, he can't say for sure that he will succeed, right? All he can do is to seize the four days and train with the team, cultivate a tacit understanding with the defenders as soon as possible, and firmly grasp his happiness and future in his own hands, and never let go.

β€»β€»β€»

The training in the first team went well, and now there is no goalkeeper, and it is normal to temporarily draw one from the second team. Everyone doesn't care about Anke's nationality, they are all professional players, it is normal to come from any country, as long as they have strength, they have their own position.

But Anke was still excited. When I saw a lot of football stars, it felt like a joke said: "I used to admire the name for a long time, but today I finally see a living person!" ”

Just the day before the competition, Anke had just returned to his apartment after training when his mobile phone rang, a call from home in China. When he saw the caller ID, he was a little surprised. The family almost never took the initiative to call him, and every time he called home regularly to report that he was safe. Could it be that his parents found out about him dropping out of school to play football and came to Xingshi to ask for guilt? It is true that many Chinese reporters have come to interview these days, but the club has helped him block a lot of interview requests on the grounds that "the big game is imminent, and it is not appropriate to disturb the players too much", but the vast number of reporters can't inquire about anything? Maybe like digging Zhang Jun and Li Yongle, they will go directly to Luoyang for an interview?

When I got on the phone, it was my father. "Hey, Anke. How's it going? ”

"Also...... It's fine. Anke stammered.

"Oh, how's it going?"

"That's it, that's it, as before...... The same. Anke said humbly, don't my parents know about me?

"Really? What have you learned? It's a new semester, have there been any changes in your classmates and teachers? ”

How can this Anke answer? He hadn't been to school at all, so how did he know what he had learned? "Uh, learn, learn......" Anke felt that his back was soaked, and he had always been most afraid of his father, so much so that he would inexplicably get nervous when he heard his father's voice.

"You haven't been to school at all, have you? Anke. "Listening to the voice, my father seems to be angry." You're still lying to us! ”

Anke's heart beat rapidly, and despite being separated by a continent, Anke's heart was as afraid as if his father was standing in front of him, questioning him viciously. "I, I...... It's not ......"

"If it weren't for a reporter coming to my house to say an interview, I would have thought you were going to school all the time! It turns out that you actually dropped out of school for me without permission! How dare you fool us with a fake report card! Hide from me and your mother to do some training! Your mother and I are working hard to make money in Luoyang just to let you play football? I was so sleepy that I had to send you out just to let you play? I'm telling you, if you dare to play in tomorrow's game, we won't have you as a son! ”

Anke froze and didn't play? How is this possible? Borussia Dortmund now have no goalkeeper other than him, so it's impossible to let Kohler's big man make a cameo appearance as goalkeeper for 90 minutes, right?

"Dad, this can't be! I've got to play, ......."

"If you dare to play, you try!" After yelling, my father threw the phone back. Anke held the phone and listened to the blind sound inside.

I just wanted to surprise my parents, so I didn't tell my family about my entry into the first team, but how did it become like this now?

β€»β€»β€»

The wife watched her husband slam the phone back, and her face turned red with anger. "Why bother? He's our son after all, isn't there anything we can't say well? After the reporter explained his intentions, his face was always wrong, and after finally dealing with the reporter, he called Anke.

"Say it well? That bastard took our money to play football, but lied to us that we were still in school, how can you make me say it? We worked hard to make money just to get him to play? ”

"Even if Anke didn't lie to us, you can't say that to him! You're making it hard for him, hey! You're a fan too! The wife sighed softly.

"It's because I was so obsessed with this stuff when I was young that I'm so unproductive now! Every day at work, I have to worry about being laid off. He's going to do this now, it's beautiful, but there is an age limit for professional players. What happens when he retires? Will his savings be enough for his family for the rest of his life? There are many people who can't live after the star retires! What will he do in the future if he doesn't learn more now? Father said angrily.

The wife didn't know what to say, just sighed.

β€»β€»β€»

Anke sat limply on the bed, his father's words still ringing in his head.

"If you dare to play in tomorrow's game, we won't have your son!"

He couldn't understand why his father was so angry and said such heartless words. Dad is also a fan, he thought that his family would not support him as a professional footballer, but he would not oppose it either, and it was so fiercely opposed.

Zhang Jun, Yang Pan, and Li Yongle are very supportive of becoming professional players, why is it their turn, but they are like this?

Can't you really play? Are you kidding? I've finally reached this point, and if I give up, won't all the things I have paid and lose for this be wasted?

But if you don't give up, then dad he ...... Anke understands that his father is really possible to do what he says and not recognize him as a son. In that case, even if you are successful and rich, what is the use?

When Anke was distressed, the phone rang again, and when she picked it up, she was still calling from home, and it couldn't be her father calling again, right? Forget it, just scold. Anke smiled wryly and answered the phone. "Huh, Mom?" He was a little surprised.

"It's me." Mom kept her voice low. "Still bothered by your dad's words, aren't you?"

Compared with her strict father, Anke doesn't have that kind of fear for her mother. "yes, I can't figure it out......"

"Fool, don't pay attention to your dad, he's talking angry. You shouldn't lie to your dad with fake transcripts, he's angry because of that. ”

"I'm sorry, I know it's wrong......" Anke also knows that deception is indeed a very wrong act.

"It's good to know that you're wrong, don't hide anything from us in the future, are you afraid that we will hold you back? Hehe! Don't think too much, your dad and I will persuade him, you have to play well in tomorrow's game, and we will cheer you on in front of the TV! Mom deliberately said "we" just to let Anke know that his dad would also watch the ball.

"Well, I see. Where's Dad? ”

"He's gone to sleep, so I have time to call you! Anyway, don't worry about it so much, play well, and don't embarrass your dad! ”

"Mom, I'm ......"

"Hehe, your dad is also for your good. No matter what, you will always be his son, and that will not change. Play well, you know? ”

"Iβ€”I know!" Anke nodded vigorously.

"Okay, I won't say more, long-distance is expensive, hehe! Goodbye, son! ”

"Goodbye, Mom!"

An Keci, who put down the phone, found that it was already the beginning of the lights outside the window, and before he knew it, it was dark. It seems that tomorrow's game will only succeed and not fail in any case.

The pressure is a lot greater than before, but for Anke, any pressure is not called pressure at the moment, and he is confident that he will make his debut.

This time it was not only for Dortmund, but for the discovery of his Rheinberg, for his mentor Oliver Oder, and for himself. More importantly, in order for him to enjoy football, his father, and his mother, who has always understood him and supported him.
