Chapter Twenty-Four: Not Attracting Envy Is Medicity
readx;
There is not only one Tinga who wants to give Chu Zhongtian a good look, but also countless Dortmund fans. It was his celebration after his goal that he celebrated www.biquge.info goal that made him an instant rival to Dortmund fans. No matter how long it will take in the future, when Chu Zhongtian follows Hoffenheim to Dortmund's home stadium Westphalen, he will be warmly "welcomed" by Dortmund fans.
After the game restarted, as long as the Dortmund fans saw Chu Zhongtian take the ball, they were booed, when he passed the football and when the boos stopped. And because Chu Zhongtian is the core player of Hoffenheim, he needs to often take the ball, control the ball, dribble the ball, and pass the ball, so the boos of Karl Benz Stadium continue to sound.
It is rare for Chinese foreign players to be booed by opposing fans in the game, which is not to say that Chinese foreign players are all good gentlemen and have good popularity. This situation is due to the fact that the Chinese players are not strong enough to pose much of a threat to the enemy, and the enemy's fans are naturally not interested in wasting saliva on a nobody.
When had the Chinese TV commentators seen this - as soon as Chu Zhongtian took the ball, the Dortmund fans booed as if they were in command - he was inexperienced, and he didn't know how to deal with it, so he fell into silence.
Later, he felt that it was not good to remain so silent, so he began to talk about him left and right, completely ignoring the boos of the Dortmund fans.
When the boos got up, he said something: "Chu Zhongtian got the ball", "Chu Zhongtian is very good at protecting the ball", "Chu Zhongtian's exquisite passing", "Chu Zhongtian stops the ball very steadily" and other nonsense, not mentioning boos at all.
As a result, many Chinese viewers in front of the TV set did not understand the significance of Chu Zhongtian's celebration after the goal. After all, as Chu Zhongtian became more and more famous in China, there were also many new fans who didn't watch football at all before, but only started to watch Chu Zhongtian's games out of the psychology of supporting Chinese compatriots.
It wasn't until Tinga collided fiercely with Chu Zhongtian in defense that the Dortmund fans in the stands booed, and the commentator came out to say a few painless words.
Why did the Dortmund fans boo, because judging from this collision, it was their Tinga who suffered a loss, lying on the ground for a long time without relieving himself, and Chu Zhongtian stood up again immediately after falling to the ground. So it looks like Chu Zhongtian deliberately collided with Tinga.
But in fact, it was Tinga who wanted to give Chu Zhongtian a little bit of power, and took the initiative to crash into Chu Zhongtian in a ball with a five-to-five chance between the two sides.
Unexpectedly, what he hit was not a person, but a stubborn rock full of edges and corners.
Tinga, who was lying on the ground, was hit in the ribs, and the pain was so painful that he grinned his teeth.
Facing the referee who came up to warn him, Chu Zhongtian just shrugged his shoulders and pouted. Of course, he knew that Tinga had hit him on his own initiative, but there was nothing to excuse him, because it was useless to say it - it was not him who was lying on the ground and couldn't get up, but Tinga.
If Tinga knew that Chu Zhongtian had a hard fight with Kana, who was known as the "killing machine", in the French league and made the killing machine deflated, he would definitely not have moved the idea of "giving Chu Zhongtian a little bit of power...... This time, Tinga was stretchered off the pitch and underwent several minutes of treatment before returning to the pitch.
But after that, he was much more honest, and there were no superfluous thoughts other than executing the manager's tactics.
After conceding the third goal, Dortmund tried to fight back, and although they were already three goals behind, the dignity of the old powerhouses did not allow them to concede defeat so easily in front of the promoted side.
Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen Klopp stood on the sidelines to personally supervise the game, and while the Hoffenheim players were celebrating their goals, he pulled Shaheen aside to give him a good lesson. Asking him to be more active on the offensive end, and at the same time, in order to ensure that he has more energy to devote to attack, Klopp also specifically told him not to go back to participate in defense.
Shaheen has just turned 20 years old, but he has already shown his talent in attack. He can't play in the main team at Dortmund now, but Dortmund has positioned him as a promising star for the future, and as long as he performs well, he will have more opportunities in the future.
This is an important premise - as long as he performs well.
So far in this match, his performance has not been great, and it can even be said that he has been a bit of a failure. As the team's playmaker, he didn't create any dangerous attacks for Borussia Dortmund. There are zero appearances in TV close-ups, and many times he is on the field like a person who doesn't play at all.
What is the reason for all this?
It's Hoffenheim's number eight.
He was standing next to Shaheen at the moment, less than five meters away from him.
Now it's Dortmund attacking, Hoffenheim is on the defensive, Chu Zhongtian is mainly responsible for clearing the threat for the back line in the defense, and the threat he can't clear will be leaked over to the back line, if he can't even deal with the back line, he can only hand it over to goalkeeper Ozjan. Ozcan can't handle it either, and that's conceding the ball.
To put it simply, the team's defense is like a filter composed of several layers of filters, layer by layer, from the coarsest and easiest to clean impurities to extremely fine dust, if the first few layers of filters are handled well, then the last thing that flows to the goalkeeper is clear water.
In fact, it would be unfair to say that Shaheen had not performed at all before. In fact, Sha Xin also performed, but whenever he wanted to be active, he would be filtered out by Chu Zhongtian's filter...... Borussia Dortmund are now desperate to pull a goal back so that they have hope in the remaining forty minutes.
Sha Xin glanced at Chu Zhongtian next to him, a little worried. But as soon as he thought of the manager's special advice to him, he still raised his hand and asked his teammates for the ball.
The ball was passed by his team-mate, and he felt Hoffenheim's number eight pressing again.
This is what he is most afraid of, if the opponent is just stuck in the position and not pressing, he can also calmly make moves to induce the opponent to show his flaws, or simply pass the football out.
But if the other party presses, he can't make any moves.
That's how the first few times I lost possession.
This time was no exception.
Sha Xin was just about to catch the ball when Chu Zhongtian bumped into him from behind. The violent impact prevented him from even stopping the ball, and the ball bounced off his toes.
Worst!
Shahin secretly screamed badly, and when he tried to chase the ball again, he saw that a figure had already passed by him, and in the blink of an eye, the figure was copied in front of him, and a back number was very clear - 8.
It was no different from before, even the result was the same, he was once again broken by the number eight.
But this time, it can't just end there. Sha Xin struggled to chase back, and he grabbed Chu Zhongtian's shoulder with one hand, trying to hold him, but there was an obvious gap between the two in terms of strength.
As a result, such a strange scene was created - Chu Zhongtian seemed to have a person running forward with a person hanging on his body.
Shahin himself knew that this was too ridiculous, and he couldn't stop the other party at all, so he could only let go of the shovel.
As a result, the number eight in front of him passed the ball a second before he decided to tackle it.
Since the opponent doesn't even have the ball, if he puts a tackle again, it will be a typical foul. Shaheen is not the kind of villain who will do anything to hurt opposing players. He let Chu Zhongtian go.
Taking this opportunity, Chu Zhongtian instigated another offive, after the football hit the left side, it was passed to the goal by Salihovic, and Ibisevic received the football and shot hard from eleven meters away on the right side of the penalty area, and the football hit the crossbar!
"Hoffenheim had an attack...... Ibisevic!! Yes...... Hit on the beam! ”
"Look at this ball...... Ball...... Almost! The ball didn't go in! It hit the beam and bounced out...... Oh! ”
Ibisevic's call beam startled everyone out of their seats. The Hoffenheim fans were ready to cheer again, while the Dortmund fans were scared.
Klopp's eyes widened and his mouth opened unconsciously the moment Ibisevic shot at goal. At this moment, he thought that the team was about to concede another goal.
Fortunately, God is on his side at this moment. The ball hit the crossbar.
But Klopp's mood didn't get any better. Because judging from the scene, his team is still completely at a disadvantage, this disadvantage is really inexplicable, and he himself doesn't know why. In terms of strength, his team is definitely higher than Hoffenheim's promoted team, in terms of the player's fame, the club's heritage, Dortmund has completely beaten the opponent, in terms of form, Dortmund's recent form in the league is not bad, and Hoffenheim has just experienced a two-round winless run, a heavy defeat, and a draw.
Why is it your own team that is now inferior on the field from the score to the field?
Klopp couldn't figure it out, and if he didn't figure it out, he couldn't turn the tide.
Now, in the face of Hoffenheim's wave after wave of attacks, he really feels helpless.
However, his helpless form did not last until the end of the game, nor for long, and Hoffenheim woke him up with wave after wave of attacks.
He made a substitution, replacing Federico with Polish midfielder Błaszczykowski (jakub_blaszczykowski). Błaszczykowski is fast and good at breaking through, and has the title of "Polish Figo" in Poland. Jurgen Klopp is clearly hoping that the 'Polish Figo' can use his pace and breakthrough to break down the game and find a way for Dortmund to score goals.
Shaheen has been completely frozen by that Hoffenheim's eight, and the middle lane is impassable, so he can only make a fuss from the side.
He then replaced the 34-year-old Argentine veteran Diego Diego with 22-year-old Albanian striker Sadriaj (bayram_sadrijaj). Klimovich (diego_klimowicz). Klimovic moved from Wolfsburg last season for €1.1 million for Borussia Dortmund and scored six goals in 28 appearances last season. Now at the age of 34, his physical fitness has dropped significantly, and he has not performed much in this race, and he can't run anymore.
Jurgen Klopp used up all of his substitutions and the rest of the game was beyond his control. All he could do was wait quietly and see if his substitutions worked.
In fact, the head coach's influence on the game is very limited, after all, he is only responsible for formulating tactics and making adjustments, but the people who put his tactics and adjustments into practice are still the players, if the players do not perform well, even if the coach's tactics are subtle, no matter how good the adjustments are, it will not help. For a manager, it's a "result determines the process" profession, and if the result is right, then everything you did before was right, and the result was wrong, then even if you were in the same process before, it was wrong.
Jurgen Klopp made his adjustment in the 64th minute, and he began to wait for it to take effect.
Unfortunately, he waited for his team's fourth goal three minutes later.
Hoffenheim's right-back Baker threw a throw-in from the side, Chu Zhongtian received the ball near the center circle, and then passed through, and Eduardo went to the meeting in an offside position. He faced the onrushing Weidenfeller with a left-footed shot from inside the arc of the box, and the ball rolled past Weidenfeller into the net.
4:0!
"The fourth! The fourth! Hoffenheim scored their fourth goal of the game! Carlos. Eduardo! It was his first goal in the Bundesliga! ”
"What a coincidence today, Chu scored his first goal in the Bundesliga and Eduardo also scored his first Bundesliga goal......"
"Eduardo from Brazil has scored! The one who assisted him was my country's player Chu Zhongtian! Let's take a look at the replay...... A very beautiful through pass, Dortmund's defenders originally wanted to create offside, but Chu Zhongtian completed the pass before them, Eduardo ran calmly, received the ball, and was not offside! Look closely, it's really not offside! ”
The scene of Chu Zhongtian's direct pass from the middle circle before the goal just now was being played on the TV screen, and the picture was frozen back and frozen, repeated, and replayed from two different angles, just to let the TV audience see clearly whether the ball was offside.
Dortmund's players raised their hands to signal offside after Eduardo received the ball, and from the time, it seemed that Eduardo was really suspected of offside this time.
But the TV slow motion clearly tells everyone that at the moment of Chu Zhongtian's pass, Eduardo and Dortmund's fullback Schmelzer were parallel, and just when the football left Chu Zhongtian's feet and rolled forward, Eduardo rushed out, Schmelzer also took a step forward, and the two of them pulled away two positions at once, if you only look here, you will think that Eduardo has been offside by at least two meters. But that's not the case.
This scene, which needs to be seen clearly with the help of TV broadcasts, is not mistaken by the linesman, which really has to be admired.
Of course, what is more worthy of admiration is Chu Zhongtian who passes the ball.
He had already seen Dortmund's intention to create offside before the pass, but the young Schmelzer was a little distracted at this moment and did not form a tacit understanding with the other three defenders when he was offside. This allowed Chu Zhongtian to seize the opportunity.
He didn't hesitate to pass the ball, the timing was just right, and in such a tight situation, his through ball of more than 20 meters was able to pass to Eduardo's feet accurately, which was also remarkable. And that's all thanks to his relentless passing practice from his time at Wimbledon and until Hoffenheim.
This fourth goal was the last straw that broke the Dortmund fans.
For Borussia Dortmund's players, they have seen a lot of defeats, even if they lose by four goals, it is nothing, and the defeat to the promoted side is just a sad night. But for the Dortmund fans who came all the way with the team, it was unacceptable.
Before the game, none of them took Hoffenheim seriously, believing that although it was an away game, Dortmund would crush Hoffenheim like an ant, and Bayer Leverkusen was the best example.
But who knew that what I saw now was such a scene - the team I supported was defeated by the opponent by four goals in a row away from home. These fans are not pseudo-fans who follow the blind coaxing, they have watched football for many years and have a deep understanding of football. Naturally, it can be seen that his team's loss is not a fluke, but from the beginning of the game to the disadvantage, until now it has not come back, the scene has been like this, even conceding four goals can only be said to be "natural".
This reality makes them even more deeply disappointed - why is Dortmund so poor? Why is it powerless to be beaten in the face of a small promotion horse?
Why? Why?
There's an easy way to find a problem in yourself – in other words, they don't really want to find a problem in themselves – and that's to find a problem in someone else. It's easier to say "it's someone else's fault" than to admit that you've made a mistake.
So the reason for this scene naturally lies with Hoffenheim.
If it weren't for the fact that Hoffenheim's owner was so rich, recruiting everywhere and spending more than 200 million euros, how would Hoffenheim, a team that should still be in the regional amateur league, be qualified to play against us in Germany's top league?
If it weren't for the number eight, how could Hoffenheim have such a clear advantage on the field?
Now that the culprit has been found, things will be easy.
They're fans, they can't really jump off the pitch to help the team win, but they can bargain for a bit of a mouthful.
This time they opened their mouths to sing, but it was no longer just insulting. Just simply scolding "I**" is obviously not enough to make them angry, they have to be more fierce now.
"Old man Hope, we know where your home is!!"
Don't simply think that this is a very common phrase, in fact, it contains a threatening flavor. We know where your home is, so you can guess what we're going to do when we know where your home is.
That's why you will never give your home address to someone else, not to mention that this person has a great hatred for you.
"Dietma. Hope, your end is coming! ”
"I promise you won't see the sun tomorrow!"
Not only did they physically threaten Hope, but Chu Zhongtian, who had always performed well, did not run away.
Hope is also a German no matter how he says it, everyone is a member of the same country, even if it is threatened, he has to talk about it, and he will not be so naked.
But it is different for Chu Zhongtian, Chu Zhongtian is a Chinese, a yellow race, and there is nothing polite to this kind of alien.
"Chinese monkeys! We'll cut your head off and kick it as a ball! ”
"You better watch your car, Yellow Pig!!"
The radical fans of Dortmund kept chanting these personal threats, and soon Hoffenheim president Dietmar was sitting on the podium. Hope could hear some of the radical Dortmund fans singing. Originally, he was very happy to see his team leading by a big score, but after listening to what those fans were singing, his face suddenly turned blue.
But as the home team, as the host, he had to maintain his demeanor and continue to sit in his place and watch the game while listening to the fans threatening to kill him. Beside him, Dortmund club president Laubar (reinhard_rauball) suddenly got up, apologized to Hope, and walked straight out.
Generally speaking, the president of a team's club leaves the pitch early in the middle of his team's game because his team is not performing well and is dissatisfied with the game. However, Raubal definitely did not take a sudden position because of Dortmund's poor performance, which he made clear when he apologized to Hope because he was very embarrassed by the performance of some of the Dortmund radical fans in the stadium that made him very embarrassed as the president of the Dortmund club.
Chu Zhongtian also heard what the radical fans of Dortmund sang, his face changed slightly, but soon returned to normal, and continued to organize attacks in the game, intercepting Dortmund's defense, and it looked no different from before.
But head coach Rangnick couldn't sit still, he was very worried about what bad impact it would have on Chu Zhongtian for Dortmund's radical fans to attack his players like this, even if it didn't pose any bad influence, he couldn't let his own people be attacked like this. There is no way he can stop the Dortmund fans, he can only replace Chu Zhongtian.
So when there were fifteen minutes left before the end of the game, the biggest contributor to Hoffenheim's big win in this game, Chu Zhongtian was replaced in the threat to the lives of the radical fans in Dortmund and the cheers and applause of the Hoffenheim fans.
Chu Zhongtian raised his arms when he was substituted, clenched them into fists, and waved them at the Dortmund fans in the stands.
He's demonstrating to them.
Just scold me, be afraid of me, the louder you scold, the more afraid you are of me!
How deep should they be afraid of themselves to be able to make the opposing fans make death threats against them during a game? What a high honor...... Not attracting envy is a mediocrity, and I Chu Zhongtian is not a mediocre talent.
Thank you!
