Chapter 74: It's Derby Time Again (2)

The media in Stuttgart believes that Karlsruhe's victory can only exist in fantasy, this Stuttgart team is indeed not completely run-in, whether in attack or defense, they have exposed certain problems, but it was in the Bundesliga, Stuttgart met the team is a Bundesliga team, even if Stuttgart is full of problems, Karlsruhe did not force Stuttgart to show the ability to show flaws, the strength of the two teams is there, Glenschal's value is 3 million euros, Almost ten times more than Federico. And Glen Schal's value is nothing more than a very ordinary one in the Stuttgart team. Karlsruhe does not have any international players in their squad, Li Huan and Federico are still amateurs, while Stuttgart has at least eight international players. And the vast majority of them are active international players, although heroes don't ask about their origins, but bears don't care about their origins either.

The media in Stuttgart first talked about the coach, Becker is a good coach, and that is only in the Bundesliga, in the range of Baden-Württemberg, but Trapattoni is definitely a world-class gold medal coach, he has won the top of Serie A eight times, won the Italian Cup three times, won the Bundesliga once, won the three major European cups, won the Toyota Cup, and has won 21 championship trophies so far. Because from now on, it will take him 21 years to win one championship a year and equal the Italian's honor. In the contest between two coaches who are not at the same level at all, Trapattoni definitely beats Becker. The Stuttgart media also talked about the annual salaries of the two, Trapattoni was 1.8 million euros a year, while Becker's was 200,000 euros, and the Stuttgart people mocked that maybe ten Beckers could catch up with one Trapattoni.

Secondly, in the comparison of the team's stars, Karlsruhe's star is their trump card, super defender Li Huan, who has scored 16 league goals so far, and Li Huan, who has scored 23 total goals, is the most capable defender of all time, and Li Huan also contributed 15 assists, almost supporting most of Karlsruhe's attack. But Karlsruhe is only Li Huan's strength to be able to stand in the Bundesliga, but there are at least five or six 'Li Huan' in Stuttgart.

Li Huan galloped unbeatably in the German Second Division, and his speed of 100 meters and 10 seconds 3 seconds can be called a boy chasing the wind, with absolute speed, sharp turn and sudden stop. He took the ball on one side, and the people who defended him left him three or four meters away to defend him, but Li Huan was still able to rely on speed to pass others. There are not many feints, except for going to the middle, there is no shaking at all, every time it is eaten alive, and it is clear that the speed is compared with the opponent, so all the left defenders will almost take the initiative to choose to retract when playing with Karlsruhe, and do not give Li Huan space to sprint, otherwise it will definitely be burst into a sieve.

But Li Huan has now met an opponent, Danish Glenshire is on the left side, he and Li Huan have about the same speed, similar physical fitness, similar endurance, and even like Li Huan, he is also a sprinter, Chelsea before Mourinho came basically relied on this wing player to support, Glen Char's breakthrough success rate can not be said to be 100% at least 90%, the speed is very fast, and the emergency stop and turn is very powerful. Chelsea's style of play at the time was simple, with the ball in the hands of Glenschal and Lesaux (mostly to Glenschal), who burst forward and sent low crosses. Although Glen Schal can break through almost every time, the quality of his crosses is relatively poor, and the head coach Larni will be a headache for this love. He once said: Glen Charles really broke me down! He can run half the pitch, get past three or four defenders, and finish with a cross kick. Although Glen Charles can't be compared with Li Huan in crosses, it is difficult for Li Huan to break through his defense with speed, it can be said that Li Huan's offensive ability will be greatly reduced under Glen Char's deterrence, and if he can't pass Glen Char's defense, he may even disappear in the game.

But Glenschal is not Stuttgart's only trump card, the air bully Gomez in the front, the opportunist Danish international Tomasson, the attacking and defensive German international Hitzelsperger, and the German international Hildebrand. These are all international players who are much more famous than Li Huan, and even if these players can't be perfectly integrated, they will make Karlsruhe unable to resist if they go it alone.

Stuttgart's media believes that Stuttgart's weapon to block Li Huan in addition to Grunshire is also Hildebrand, Li Huan's most powerful weapon in addition to speed is his free kick, Xiao Li Feidao is no example, this is the praise of Li Huan's free kick, but that was in the German second game, when facing Germany, Li Huan's little Li Feidao may not be effective, without Li Huan's side breakthrough, if even the free kick can not play a powerful role, Karlsruhe is equivalent to the tiger has been pulled out of its teeth and claws.

The two teams have only met 42 times in the history of the league and cup, with Karlsruhe having won 8 wins, 9 draws and 25 losses, scoring 38 goals and conceding 81 goals; However, Karlsruhe has a decent record at Wilder Park, with 7 wins, 7 draws and 7 defeats, and the number of goals scored and conceded is similar, Karlsruhe scored 22 goals and conceded only 23 goals. With such a good record, Stuttgart's fans and journalists have such a strong confidence

The media of the two sides are arguing hotly, and the two teams did not forget to be interviewed to stimulate the opponent when they were struggling to find a good way to break the enemy, the derby has never been the first friendship game second, the first friendship of the game is not the second, the-for-tat is the main tone, in the state derby between Karlsruhe and Freiburg, Li Huan said that Freiburg is a soft egg, although in the end the game was full of red and yellow cards, Federico was also injured, but Li Huan was more loved by local fans, Fans think that this is more iron-blooded and more German, and some fans even chanted for Li Huan to join the German team when Li Huan was training, looking down on all non-Germanic surnames with German conservatism and arrogance, and this approach is to treat Li Huan as his own.

As the team's number one star, as a prodigal son who speaks unscrupulously, Li Huan will naturally never be forgotten by the media, and in an interview with a reporter from City Daily, Li Huan talked about his views on this derby.

"The derby is a war for me, not a job, and although it is not the first time I have played a derby, it is the same excitement and excitement every time, which makes me feel that my existence is meaningful, and I can also feel that the fans and I breathe the same fate, we are comrades in the trenches. I've heard old teammates like Stoll talk about the history of our derby with Stuttgart, we lost badly, we only beat twice on the road, we barely drew at home, I know Karlsruhe's style, I'd rather die than give in, so we don't lack in fighting spirit, what we lack is quality, but now we are only worse than ever, but that doesn't mean we're going to lose this game because we have the home fans and they're going to give us a lot of motivation to meet this challenge. I'm sure it's going to be a classic fight. Whether it's a hero or a bear, let's see in the arena. ”

Karlsruhe captain Stoll also spoke to reporters, saying: "Stuttgart are giants in the Bundesliga, very strong, they have a world-class manager, and against such a team, it is not surprising that Stuttgart is supported to win." But we're not going to throw in the towel, and I don't think the difference between the two teams is as big as the difference in the squad, and many of our players have the quality to make a name for themselves in the Bundesliga. Trapattoni's thinking is still stuck in the glory of the past, but the reinforced concrete defence he has built is not tight, because his players are not familiar with the Italian style of defense, this is our chance, I believe that Li Huanferes and Capalani will take advantage of the weaknesses of the opponent. The German Cup has reached the quarter-finals and there are only three games left before the final, so we will not give up. See you on the field. ”

Stuttgart's players were also interviewed after training, and the two main players who stopped Li Huan's attack, Glen Charles and goalkeeper Hildebrand, both spoke, Glen Schal spoke in the style of typical Vikings, he said: "I will stop Li Huan, the right side will be the best battlefield for the two of us, we will win the final victory, because our strength is stronger, Xiao Li Feidao is a joke, I have never seen a player with 100 shots from a free kick, if he is really so powerful, he is not a star, He's the god of the ball. ”

Hildebrande spoke in an organized manner than Glen Charles, he said: "I can't wait to play now, three days is difficult for me to get through, the main thing is that I want to know if Li Huan's little Li Feidao is really as powerful as the legend, his free kick is not kicked out with his feet, but with computer control, it is really looking forward to it, I haven't looked forward to a game with such a mood for a long time." But my concern is that he didn't have a chance to take a free-kick because it was very difficult for them to get it on the edge of our box and they couldn't even get into our half. But I still hope that Li Huan and I can have such a meeting, penalty kicks and free kicks are good, I like to go head-to-head with this young man. ”
