Chapter 70: Heartbeat
The match ended 2-0.
In the 79th minute, Kuka and Lu Wei played a wonderful cooperation on the left side, after two consecutive two-over-one, the two crossed and switched, Lu Wei ignored You Mo in the far corner of the right side, and made a nudge in the inverted triangle to continue Kuka's continuous goal performance.
The cheers of the fans have not yet subsided, and Werder Bremen, who have pressed for their lives, gave Kaiserslautern another opportunity, but this time, Lu Wei's breakthrough was blocked by the opponent with a foul in front of the penalty area.
Klistov's trademark right-footed curling kick completed the explosion after a long silence.
The Bulgarian after the goal baffled everyone.
Running fifty meters, rushing to the coach's box, and hugging the helpless Rehhagel tightly, it is obvious in the camera lens that he seems to be talking to the head coach constantly!
From the absolute main force to the rotation player, a 21-year-old guy from the C team has long occupied the main position, and the 28-year-old Christov, with less than half of the previous playing time, has seen a decline in all aspects of the season.
In everyone's opinion, the right-hand man who reached the top last season should be resentful or leave after receiving this kind of treatment. At the age of 28, he is still in the prime of his career, and some late-bloomers are at their peak at this time.
In this situation, the impact of not being able to beat the main force is very large!
Any guy with a heart will cherish his golden period very much. In the absence of a significant decline in form, being pressed to the bench to watch the game is a feeling that no one can ignore.
Among the Kaiserslautern team that has been in the focus of public opinion recently, the Bulgarians are the ones who have been sighed the most!
Rumors about him have also been the focus of discussion for a while, and there are all kinds of speculation.
Discord with the manager, isolation in the team. I've long since left
Today's precious goal not only sealed the victory, but also gave him the best chance to make his voice heard.
However, what is it expressed in such a way?
Grateful?
"There are so many things I can't understand about this Kaiserslautern team!"
"No way. As the Red Devils, we were used to the crazy performances in the final stages of the game. But the team's two halves were like the two of them, and Klitov's incomprehensible actions after scoring the goal were full of mystery that was not known to outsiders! ”
'What would he say to the manager?'
"Haha, who can guess?"
"It's impossible to be grateful, to be treated like this, to be able to be a model of a professional footballer without complaining, and to be grateful at this time. That's a slap in the face. ”
"Yes. If he still wants to stay in this team, this kind of behavior is impossible. ”
"Understood?"
"Possibly. Barak's growth is inseparable from his Rang Xian, Rehhagel's reuse of young people's actions, if there is no support from the old players, there will undoubtedly be internal friction, and Yan zhòng will affect combat effectiveness! ”
"However, it is a little confusing to express understanding so excitedly."
"yes. I can't figure that out either. The Bulgarian gives the impression that he has always been a representative of calm players. It's rare to get so excited. ”
"Forget it, don't guess, wait for the post-match press conference."
The 2-0 scoreline moved Kaiserslautern one step further up the table, finishing one point behind Borussia Dortmund's hampered Bayer Leverkusen. Well, oh my goodness! I even ignored it. They are now at the top of the standings! ”
"You just found out? I've been boiling for a long time, and you just found out? ”
"It's amazing, I just want to say, it's amazing, really"
"There's no way not to be incoherent. I'm no exception! This promoted team, which looks mediocre in all aspects, continues to rise in the Bundesliga! After ten rounds, they beat the defending champion Bayern Munihe, the new European champion Borussia Dortmund, the new UEFA Cup champion Schalke 04, last season's German Cup winner Stuttgart, uh, a bunch of runners-up Bayer Leverkusen to occupy the top spot in the standings! ”
"Even if tomorrow is surpassed by Bayern Munich, who have one less round, today has become a legend, recorded in the history of German football in the past century!"
"After leading today's opponent Werder Bremen to establish a dynasty, Rehhagel led a promoted team to create a miracle!"
"Yes, but it occurred to me that when Rehhagel first came to Bremen in '80, that team was also struggling in the second division!"
"Well, they weren't favored by anyone at the time. But in just one season, he led the team to the top, and the following season he established himself in the top flight. Of course, compared to the crazy table of the Kaiserslautern team this season, their table is more normal! ”
"Could it be the prelude to the establishment of the second dynasty?"
"Haha, it's still early. At the very least, it's not too late to continue the conversation after they have crossed the mountains of Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen! ”
"Well, it used to be the center of the topic, but now it's different, their position has become the target of public criticism!"
"The thirteenth round against Bayer Leverkusen and the sixteenth round against Bayern Munihei are the biggest dark horses in the Europa League this season!"
"It's not just them, it's no Bundesliga team that doesn't ignore their status as promoted horses. Defeating them will break the dark horse miracle in one fell swoop, and this kind of thing will give people a great sense of achievement! ”
"A big tree will inevitably attract the wind! It seems that Rehhagel and his disciples are about to go through a real test! ”
"Expectation, it's really exciting! With them this year, there is enough talk for the whole of European football! ”
"It's an itch! Okay, let's listen to the post-race mixed zone interview. ”
"What do you mean, 'Don't be sad, you still have us'?"
"Wrong, all wrong, no one guessed the real answer!"
Rehhagel was treated like an enemy by his former disciples, and he was not as angry as he had imagined. His affection for Bremen was deeper than anyone else's. After receiving this kind of treatment, his biggest mood is sadness! ”
"The guys from the Kaiserslautern team in front of me seem to understand this. In order to quickly calm down in the second half, with a real professional attitude, he taught everyone a lesson! ”
'Yes, being able to stay calm when the opposition is so provocative and finally get the game back into play is a model for all players to learn from.
"How did Rehhagel do it. Listen to an interview with him. ”
"Huh?"
"Oh my God! He actually said, 'At halftime, he didn't go into the dressing room, he didn't know what was going on inside!' Is it true, Mueller, I can't believe it! ”
"Incredible, incredible! We two old guys, outsiders. I didn't see it clearly, but they saw it at the same time as the game! Moreover, in just 15 minutes, everyone clearly felt Rehhagel's true feelings, and did not use angry revenge to continue the team's first half table! ”
"The players consoled the coach, oh my God. I lived to be almost 60 years old. First time I've heard of it! ”
"What is so strange about what makes sense! In such a way, Kristov made the old man's heart open up all at once! ”
"Yes, with them, the past is no longer important. The damage is just a passing moment! ”
"Well, their goals are big, there are many difficulties, they really don't have the energy, and they are indulging in sadness about the past!"
Thomas Schaaf walked over. It was only when he walked in front of Rehhagel that he stood still, stretched out his hand, and said nothing.
"You're still so reticent."
Rehhagel reached out and held it, the corners of his eyes twitching a few times.
"You've been disappointed." Thomas Schaaf nodded slightly, using some strength in his hands.
It's mid-October, and the cold weather is dispelled by the temperature from the palm of his hand, which makes him feel a trace of warmth in his heart.
"No, I see my shortcomings. What used to be thought to be a fluke in Basler has now become a bigger problem. Rehhagel shook his head slightly, speaking quickly but with a distant look.
"So, I refuse to admit that I am like you in every way." The corners of Thomas Scharf's mouth moved, as if a smile was about to run out, but in the end, there was no time to slip out of the closed corners of his mouth.
"Okay, let's change. Me, and the whole of Bremen. Rehhagel stopped his sad memories and turned his gaze back.
"Well, a game like this might make them realize something."
"You're welcome."
"I haven't said thank you yet."
"No, your burden is heavy, so you don't have to spend your mind on this kind of thing."
"Understood."
"Wait!"
Lu Wei, who was walking quickly to the locker room, was stopped and turned back in some surprise.
"Let's do it together." Rehhagel took two quick steps and walked side by side.
"Oh, do you have something to say to me?" Lu Wei's face was calm, as if he had already guessed the other party's intentions.
However, he clearly underestimated Rehhagel this time.
"When I was a teaching assistant, are you interested?"
"Uh, sure, no problem." Lu Wei was a little surprised, and he was stuck for a while before he smoothed out, but his face was still a little surprised, looking at the other party.
The old man looked serious and put his hand on his shoulder.
"Don't be surprised, and don't worry about anything. It's a reward you deserve, but at the same time, it's a lot of responsibility and pressure. ”
"Well, as you wished, I didn't refuse." Lu Wei's face calmed down, and he raised his head with a smile.
"I haven't figured out the exact plan yet, but you don't have to worry about it. Outside criticism is nothing, and I'm sure you won't be affected by those distractions. It's just that there is some worry that you are putting too much pressure on yourself. Rehhagel laughed too, but in a tone and a little worried.
"No, I don't have any plans to rush it." The smile on Lu Wei's face rarely turned into an unstoppable smile, slipping out of the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, and scattered in the air.
"That's good!"
Rehhagel's laughter was much more hearty.
The empty and dark tunnel of the players, like a staircase to the top of the podium, is full of hope.
Life, maybe that's it, in the reincarnation, there are always some moments worth remembering.
If you do it all over again, it's still exciting. (To be continued......)
