(Thank you, brothers, we are back on the weekly recommendation list, and we are the only one of the strong pushes to be on both lists.) Some brothers feel that the update is slow, but I want to ensure the quality of the update, and I also have to save the manuscript for the shelves, so please forgive me. ）

At a glance, there are boundless fields, cows, horses, and lambs running freely on the grass, white clouds floating in the blue sky, surrounded by green, fog will cover the earth in the morning, only the upper body of the enchanting scenery can be seen, the farmhouse houses are designed and built by the owner himself, with a unique triangular roof Western style, vehicles will give way to pedestrians when crossing the road, and the salesperson will be cordial when walking into each shop...... This is the small town of Hoffenheim in South Germany.

As Becker prepares to avenge the four-arrows feud two years ago in the German Cup, Dietmar in the village of Hoffenheim on the outskirts of Sinsheim. On the Hope Field, the head coach of the German team Hoffenheim was also announcing the results of yesterday's draw, and when he heard that the opponent was Karlsruhe, a weak German second division team in the same state, the players of Hoffenheim were excited and smiled one by one. Because for a Bundesliga team, there is only one way out to get the attention of the outside world and the media, and that is to play the German Cup, so the best draw result for them is to draw the strongest or weakest team, draw a giant team like Bayern and Bayer Leverkusen, which can make them the object of fan attention for at least a week or two, even if it is just as a supporting role, and draw a weak team, such as a team like Karlsruhe, they have a chance to cause an upset, Veteran players can still recall the 4-0 thrashing of their state-based rivals two years ago. That game and the subsequent 3-2 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen were Hoffenheim's only proudest tournament in the last 100 years.

Head coach Flick also thinks it's a signing, is there a better opponent than this? The team in the same state, know the roots, the opponent almost fell into the situation of being with them in the first half of last season, and then stabilized the position of relegation, and more importantly, Hoffenheim has a psychological advantage over Karlsruhe, if you can win this game, make a good start for this year's league, and maybe be able to rush to the Bundesliga in one fell swoop, Flick looked at the green chairman's office in the stadium office building, remembering the conversation between Hope and him at the end of last season, Hoppe's hint is actually obvious, this season will not rush to the BundesligaThere is a good chance that his contract will end early, and Flick can't complain about Hope, who has given him five years and doesn't have the face to stay any longer if he can't make it to the second division. A few days ago, the head coach of the national team, Jurgen Klinsmann, called him and asked him if he could consider going to the national team as his assistant, but he did not agree, because he wanted to fulfill Hope's wish to rush to the Bundesliga.

But now there is some trouble is that Karlsruhe has introduced a few very good players this season, not famous, but very strong, in the warm-up match with Bayern, they actually forced the Bundesliga giant Bayern Munich, although Bayern was a little careless in that game. The best of these signings was the Chinese named Li, who played 30 minutes and completed an assist and a shot, and it was particularly surprising that the Chinese had not played a professional game before. Today, the Chinese player has a legendary nickname among students studying in Baden-Württemberg: Xiao Li Feidao. It is to describe his free-kick skills, it is said that he has never missed a shot. But Flick thinks that Chinese students are exaggerating, they like to be exaggerated, it is impossible for anyone to take a free kick and never miss it, and the penalty kick has a 75% success rate.

Satisfaction is satisfaction, Flick did not show it, he said very solemnly: "From now on, you must concentrate on the German Cup, don't treat the German Cup as a fashion show, play as a league, there will be no team that buys you away because you have passed a few people in this German Cup and scored a few goals." Playing every game well and helping the team qualify, so that you can have a future......"

"Haha!" Suddenly, a young German player burst into laughter. The little boys sitting on the side of the pitch also burst into laughter. They are all villagers of Hoffenheim, a village of 3,272 people, most of whom are members of the club, and the villagers are free to watch and the children to talk to their idols during training.

Frick was interrupted while he was talking, and he said angrily, "Baum, what do you want to do?!" ”

Baum stood out of the queue, a handsome German guy who was only 18 years old this year, and said angrily: "Coach, Strelf squeaked me." ”

"Get out, Stref." Frick yelled.

Straef stepped out of the crowd, younger and more handsome than Baum, with a white and red face that looked like a Russian, and his eyes purred and rolled, without the dullness of a German.

"Streve, if you make any more trouble, I'll send you back to Sinsheim. Even if Mr. Hope intercedes with you again, it will be useless. ”

Strelf looked at Frick pitifully and said, "Coach Flick, I was wrong, please don't let me go, I'll train hard." ”

Strev is only 15 years old, he is not a full member of the Hoffenheim team, nor is he a villager in Hoffenheim, he lives in the city of Sinsheim, 4 kilometres away, but he is a very talented footballer and is loved by the fans, and now trains with the team, and he is hailed by the Hoffenheim villagers as Hoffenheim's future midfield commander. Another reason why this child is loved by players and coaches is that he has a famous older sister Vanna, who won the best new German dance music and is now studying at the University of Karlsruhe.

For such a lovely child, no one can bear to drive him away. Frick snorted, "Go back, your generation really doesn't have a little bit of the rigor and seriousness of the Germanic people. That's why the national team's results are so poor. From today, add an extra hour to your daily training. Unless you can eliminate Karlsruhe, this time they're here with a vengeance. ”

Hoffenheim's captain Matthias couldn't help but ask: "Is the Chinese player that Mr. Hope often talks about lately really good?" ”

Frick pondered for a moment before he said, "Maybe it's more powerful than you think." ”

The surrounding Hoffenheim players all smacked their tongues, and what the owner Mr. Hope said they thought was an exaggeration, after all, the owner could only be regarded as an amateur football back then, and his words were a lot of water, but the mouth of the independent coach was completely different. That's definitely a professional evaluation,

"I heard that 10 seconds 3 seconds in the 100 meters? That's too fast, isn't it? Olhoff said in disbelief, he is Hoffenheim's main striker, but the speed of the 100 meters is only 11.3 seconds.

"Not only is the 100-meter 10.3 seconds, but the free kick is also quite powerful, with 100 shots and 100 hits." Stref said loudly.

"Jokes, all shots, who are you fooling?" The crowd burst into laughter.

Strelf's face turned red and said, "My sister said that she went to school at the University of Karlsruhe and watched the Chinese's training and competitions. ”

"Wow, your sister won't be in a relationship with that Chinese, right?" Baum joked.

Hahaha, the players laughed even harder.

Strelf said angrily: "Nonsense, my sister won't find a Chinese." ”

Flick saw that the training was suspicious of gossip and entertainment, and immediately stopped the players from laughing and began training for next week's German Cup.
