Chapter 244: Enjoy the Competition, Enjoy the Competition
readx;
Chu Zhongtian's sudden appearance in the TV camera surprised many people, and the most surprising were the Real Madrid fans, who were all looking forward to another Muhammad counterattack and another goal. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info didn't think that the counterattack didn't succeed, and he killed Chu Zhongtian halfway!
"Chu! Clear! Chu - goooooooooooal!! β
The whole Rhine-Neckar stadium shook, and the TV cameras kept shaking.
The football shot by Chu Zhongtian had a small arc, and it was this arc that allowed the ball to bypass Casillas in the air and into the back corner of the goal.
In the face of such a world wave, even St. Igor is powerless!
Alonso shoveled Chu Zhongtian head-on, and he successfully tripped Chu Zhongtian, but it only made Chu Zhongtian stumble a little, and it was after he had already shot the football, so it was completely meaningless. Chu Zhongtian stumbled for a moment, but quickly maintained his balance, and he stepped over Alonso.
Alonso, who fell to the ground, looked back at the goal, but he didn't see the process, only one result - the ball spun rapidly in the net, finally came to a slow stop, and then fell into the goal. In the end, he still didn't stop the ball from going in...... In the 38th minute, Hoffenheim equalized!
β»β»β» "This is Hoffenheim's tenacious declaration!" This game is directly related to their qualifying situation, and it is a game that must not be lost! After trailing for the eleventh minute, Hoffenheim equalised! Chu's goal was very, very beautiful! Such a shot, even Casillas can't do it! β
The German narrator was almost insane.
The Hoffenheim fans also went crazy, waving their arms and shouting loudly in the stands.
"This is Chu Zhongtian's fourth goal in this Champions League! Another beautiful kick of the world wave! He inherited the glorious tradition of being stronger when encountered! Once again, he played the team's key man at a crucial moment in a crucial match! Hoffenheim's only superstar is him! He Ping was just as excited.
"Oh-oh...... Chu, he scored! This should not be a ...... of scoring chances" In the eyes of the Spanish commentator, Real Madrid's defense is fine, it can be said that it is airtight. But he still let Chu Zhongtian forcibly break in, and with a somewhat unreasonable shot, he actually penetrated the goal guarded by Casillas...... Should I say I was lucky, or did I have that ability?
After the goal, Chu Zhongtian was also very excited, he rushed to the sidelines, and then waved his fist towards the stands, venting the emotions in his heart to the fullest.
And his teammates were even more excited than he was.
They can even use swear words to express their inner excitement.
"It's pretty!"
β»β»β» Seeing the team conceding the ball, it turned out that Cristiano was preparing to counterattack in front. Ronaldo clapped his hands in disappointment, and then he stood with his hands on his hips as he watched the Hoffenheim players celebrate their goal. If he's going to tee off, he's even going to have to move β he's in the centre circle right now.
However, the conceded goal did not affect his mood much, except for a little disappointment, everything else was fine. Anyway, there is still time in the game, if you lose a goal, you will score again. He's the best at scoring goals.
If that goal had happened in the 85th minute, he wouldn't have been so calm.
The team's number one star is not in a hurry, someone is in a hurry. Mourinho angrily got up from his chair after seeing the lost goal below, trying to find something to fall on, but found that there was nothing to fall except for the small notebook in his hand. He had no choice but to change the subject, turned around and kicked on his seat.
Then he didn't care if the chair was clean or not, and sat down.
The angry look on his face could be clearly seen.
Although Real Madrid's attacking prowess has improved a lot under his rule, winning every game by a big score, Mourinho's most important thing is always defense, and he cares more about the goal he concedes than scoring five goals. If possible, he wants his team to not concede a goal in every game.
What's more, this conceded goal also equalized the score.
Before the game, there were fears that Mourinho would release water for next Monday's world war, the national derby. It turns out that Mourinho did not release the water, and Real Madrid are still very positive. However, Mourinho has been thinking about next Monday's game against Barcelona, but his approach is not to release water in this game, but to ask everyone to give it their all, to finish Hoffenheim early in this game, and he can adjust the rest of the time to make sure everyone is in shape, and at the same time, he is not injured and the physical consumption is not too much...... Unexpectedly, his wishful thinking was ruined by Chu Zhongtian's unreasonable long-range shot. At least for a while in the second half, his team had to give it their all, otherwise they could really capsize in the gutter.
β»β»β» The first half continued, and both Real Madrid, which was equalized, and Hoffenheim, who equalized, still insisted on attacking.
However, no one scored again, and after a minute of first-half stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the half-time break.
Both teams went into the dressing room with a score of 1:1.
The commentators have said it was a great first half, even though both sides only scored one goal each. "This first half was quite a good first half! The two sides played offensive football, and the people who watched it were very enjoyable! β
"Remember the first meeting between the two sides? That game changed people's impression of Jose Mourinho's Real Madrid, and since then everyone has gradually accepted and become accustomed to seeing Mourinho's Real Madrid score goals and goals in the game, beating their opponents by a big score. Now that the two sides have met again, they have not disappointed us, and it is still a wonderful battle against us! β
'Hoffenheim was full of power as soon as they got back at home, which was a bit of a magic thing indeed. It seems that there really is some magic in their home stadium...... In the last league game, Jose Mourinho left the dressing room early before the end of the first half, and he seems to be used to doing so. But today he waited on the sidelines until the whistle blew at the end of the first half. It seems that this opponent makes him dare not take it lightly......"
In the dressing room, Mourinho was unhappy with the goal he conceded, but he didn't dwell too much on it, he just asked the team to continue to attack in the second half. Fight to win.
As soon as the Hoffenheim players entered the dressing room, they were not talking about the first half of the game that had just ended, but about another group game in France.
"How's the Milan game?" Someone asked out loud.
The result may only be known to the substitutes.
β0:0οΌβ Someone answered them.
"Oh!!"
There was a flurry of whistles and applause in the locker room.
That's what they want to hear. A draw for AC Milan means the gap between the two sides remains five points. If everyone ends in a draw, the final round of the group stage will be meaningless, and Hoffenheim will definitely qualify early. So for the Hoffenheim players, AC Milan haven't scored so far, which is really good news.
"Come on, Auxerre!"
"Hey, Chu! Your teacher is helping us! "There are also teammates who joke about Chu Zhongtian.
Chu Zhongtian just shrugged his shoulders and was not as excited and happy as the others. He told his team-mates who were joking with him: "Don't get too happy, we could lose at home to Real Madrid in 45 minutes and AC Milan could win AJ away." β
Of course, he knew that Auxerre emphasized defense, but after playing two games with them, Chu Zhongtian already had an understanding of how strong Auxerre's defense was, and Allegri gradually entered the state, and now AC Milan is much more difficult to deal with than before, so he really doesn't have much hope that Ousterre can stop AC Milan. Besides, AJ Auxerre have no hope of qualifying, even if they are fighting for third place in the group to play in the Europa League, and they are just as unlucky as Hoffenheim, with the last two group games being AC Milan and Real Madrid, two superpowers, and the chances of winning both games are lower than Hoffenheim's.
Hearing the captain say this, everyone was a little disappointed, and they were not as excited as before. Because the captain is right, this halftime draw doesn't mean anything. Unless half a long time later, AJERRE leads AC Milan by a big score of 4:0 and 5:0. However, the probability of this happening is much lower, and it is almost impossible.
Rangnick followed into the locker room and saw that everyone was there, and it was relatively quiet, so he coughed and began to speak.
As soon as he came up, he praised the team's performance, especially Chu Zhongtian, who was praised by him several times.
He was really happy with Chu Zhongtian's goal. After Chu Zhongtian scored, he jumped up from the coach's seat, rushed to the sidelines, raised his arms and cheered for a long time. Chu Zhongtian's goal meant that the team could go into halftime with a draw, which made him a lot more relaxed when arranging his tactics, at least he didn't have to break the kettle at the beginning of the second half. This is a big move, you can only use it once in a game, you use it too early, and when you lose your strength later, you will use it in vain.
He once used such a big move in the league, replacing two strikers in one go, counting the three strikers who were already on the field, and five strikers. This trick doesn't always work, sometimes you can win, sometimes it doesn't work.
Chu Zhongtian's goal made him feel more at ease, and the team's morale was even higher. How to play in the second half? Of course, it was still attacking, Hoffenheim would not attack anything but attack, no matter what the situation was attacking.
But how exactly to attack?
Rangnick studied the Real Madrid game and found that Marcelo's assists tended to be more active in the second half than in the first, and it is not known if this was an intentional arrangement by Mourinho, but it was true. He felt Hoffenheim could take advantage of Marcelo's side in the second half, and he went up to assist and then attacked the way.
On the other side is Arbeloa, who is not very good at assists and is not as active as Marcelo in attack. Maybe there will be some improvement in the second half, but Hoffenheim's focus will still be on Marcelo's wing.
Jose Mourinho's side are all about attacking from the wings, and there will be gaps behind them. It's up to Hoffenheim to catch it.
The intermission passed quickly.
The Hoffenheim players returned to the pitch, but the Real Madrid players were nowhere to be seen, and they were still in the dressing room.
It wasn't until the last minute of the break that they walked out of the aisle one after another and appeared on the pitch. Mourinho was talking to his players all the way, and finally he put his arms around Alonso's neck and whispered as he walked out of the aisle.
'It looks like Mourinho must have said so much in the dressing room that it was fifteen minutes full and he hadn't finished yet.' The narrator teased after seeing this scene.
Of course, there are other commentators who don't think so: "Ha! Not again! This is one of Mourinho's most customary tactics β letting the opposition players come on first at half-time and then waiting on the pitch, his men are always late. Germany was a little cold on November 23rd, and if it was a little later and it snowed, it would have been even better, haha! β
Jose Mourinho does like to make some of these off-the-market moves, and although they are always controversial, they work. There's nothing people can do about him.
There is no guarantee that Mourinho's move is not a psychological tactic.
Hoffenheim's players didn't have to wait long, and Mourinho didn't go too far this time. So Hoffenheim's players didn't feel any disturbance.
After the two sides were settled, the second half of the game began.
β»β»β» In the second half of the game, Real Madrid kicked off, and Real Madrid launched a fierce attack on Hoffenheim's goal as soon as they came up. It seems that they want to score as soon as possible.
In addition to Cristiano. In addition to Ronaldo, Mesut Ozil has also been outstanding. Sana was specifically responsible for marking him, but he didn't follow up in the first half, allowing Mesut Ozil to assist C. Ronaldo for a goal. In the second half, Ozil's performance was more active, and Sana had a hard time.
This Turkish descendant with a pair of goldfish eyes, who is now very popular at Real Madrid, joined in place of the injured Kaka, and just arrived at Real Madrid, he immediately won the love of the fans. His skill and composure made Real Madrid fans forget about Kaka and think of Zinedine Zidane.
Sana struggled hard to keep out Mesut Ozil's shot in defence before getting up from the ground and muttering.
"Damn! How can this kid be more powerful than when he was in Bremen......"
Chu Zhongtian heard his words, turned his head to look at him, and then looked at Ozil. It's not that Ozil is more powerful, it's that the people around him are more powerful, so he can play to his heart's content. In Bremen, trapped by Bremen's overall strength, he can only play so much even if he is a genius. But Real Madrid, a place where there are good players all around, is different.
The surprise between the good environment and the bad environment is here.
So if you change to a better environment, will you perform better?
Chu Zhongtian didn't know, and he didn't want to think about it at this time.
He pointed at Mesut Ozil, then motioned for Sana to defend. Real Madrid are about to take a corner.
Ozil was just a problem for Hoffenheim, and the biggest trouble was for the very active Portuguese.
Cristiano. Ronaldo and Chu Zhongtian are not in the opposite position, he is more often on the wing, Chu Zhongtian is in the middle, and both of them are offensive players, and there will rarely be a one-on-one defensive situation.
But the rivalry between them never stopped.
Chu Zhongtian here has a wonderful pass, and C. Ronaldo on the other side broke through from the side to create a killing opportunity.
Here, C. Ronaldo's shot in the penalty area was slightly wide, and Chu Zhongtian headed the ball in the corner kick and almost hit the ball.
Here, Ronaldo used fancy moves to play Hoffenheim defender Srna, who was defending him, and Chu Zhongtian just relied on the feints of his upper body to shake off Diarra, who was defending him in the back.
The two of them have their own magical powers, and each shows the best version of themselves.
Before the national derby between Real Madrid and Barcelona, everyone was saying "this is the best Cristiano Ronaldo!" "This is the best Messi", but this game is a duel between "the best Ronaldo" and "the best Chu Zhongtian".
Both men scored in this game, and in addition to scoring goals, they were both central figures in their respective attacking systems. Real Madrid's attack is absolutely inseparable from C. Ronaldo, and Hoffenheim's attack is simply launched by Chu Zhongtian.
The commentators also quickly realized that this was a contest between the two cores.
"Ronaldo's ability is truly outstanding, his speed, technique and physicality are top ......"
"Chu's consciousness is outstanding! The passes he gives to his teammates are always the most comfortable and conducive to the team's attack! β
β»β»β»Although the score has always been a draw, Chu Zhongtian really enjoyed such a game. Show your best self against the strongest opponent, and force the other party to show your best self. Play to your heart's content and lead the team forward.
He doesn't know if C. Ronaldo enjoyed such a game, but now he has a smile on his face.
He Ping noticed the smile on Chu Zhongtian's face: "It looks like Chu Zhongtian is enjoying the game...... Such expressions are basically not seen on the faces of our Chinese players. We have seen such an expression on the face of Xiao Luo at his peak before, and Xiao Luo who played football at that time was happy. Now Chu Zhongtian, who is working hard in the competition and sweating, is also happy. Milu once emphasized happy football, and for so many years, only Chu Zhongtian in the whole of China has done it...... Should we say that this is a blessing or a misfortune for Chinese football? β
He Ping, who was named a "poet" because he became famous at the World Cup in South Africa, began to be lyrical again. However, everyone likes his lyricism, although there is a little bit of petty bourgeoisie and literary tone, but it is very suitable for the occasion.
Ronaldo didn't have a smile on his face, but gritted his teeth and fought for every ball. But it's hard to tell from the expression on his face that he's enjoying the game or not, because he has this serious expression in every game, all the way to the end. For him, enjoying the game may be to fight with all his heart, and to fight by any means.
Both of them did enjoy the game, but they enjoyed it in different ways, and they felt that they were enjoying it in different ways.
But there is one thing they must have in common - the pursuit of winning the game, and never stopping to run until the last moment.
