After lunch at Braun's house, Li Huan walked around the city of Stuttgart alone, the last time he came and went in a hurry, he didn't have time to understand this place, he took a casual look at the long-awaited Mercedes-Benz and Porsche museums, and went to the Wilhelm Seahorse Zoo in the middle. Although it was only a glimpse, it made Li Huan lose his pride in the four major Chinese inventions that the Chinese relied on to compete with European civilization, but made him feel deep sadness, in the face of Europe's inventions and creations that changed the whole world, maybe China can only rely on the ancestors to cover up the shame.

It wasn't until the evening that Li Huan returned to Karlsruhe, and the first thing Li Huan did when he got home was to turn on the computer, today's German Cup draw ceremony should have ended, and he wanted to see which team the opponent was.

The Bundesliga and the Bundesliga are professional teams, and according to the original format, professional teams do not need to participate in the first round, but

From the 2000-2001 season onwards, all professional teams were on an equal footing with amateur teams, starting in the first round. In order to prevent strong teams from going out prematurely, in the first four rounds, the professional teams are divided into one gear, and the amateur teams are divided into one gear and drawn out to face each other. It was not until the semi-finals that the draw was held randomly.

The result of the draw made Li Huan very surprised, they happened to meet Hoffenheim in the same state of Baden, Li Huan is very familiar with this team, the next year after the team invited Rangnick, immediately reborn, into the Bundesliga, next season immediately into the Bundesliga, complete the triple jump, and then almost created the glory of the promotion horse to win the championship, although they did not win the championship, later they still became the giants of the Bundesliga, Hoffenheim still has the strength to win the championship when Li Huan crossed. However, Flick is an incompetent player at the current manager, and they have not even scored in the Bundesliga this season. Li Huan thinks that as long as Karlsruhe remains vigilant, they will be able to win this German C team, because at this time, Ibisevic, who is famous in the Bundesliga, is still fighting in Ligue 2, and Obasi and Demba Ba don't know where they are.

Many years have passed, Li Huan doesn't know the real history of the two teams in this game, Li Huan can't even remember which team won the German Cup this year, for Li Huan all this is not important, and there is no need to think so far, he has not yet taken on the qualification of the team to win the championship and qualify, and it is the most important thing to be able to stand firm and become the main force.

During training the next day, Becker announced to the team that they would face Hoffenheim in the German Cup this week, which everyone had known through TV and computers, but Becker still caused a lot of discussion when he announced, some players thought that it didn't matter which team they met, anyway, they were all amateur teams, but the old players thought they were unlucky, they had to play against a strong German team, and they had to play a very uncomfortable state derby, And a giant like Bayern has only encountered an eighth-tier amateur team that they can't even name.

Becker swept the players' expressions and comments, after the team drew with Bayern, the team's morale and confidence have been greatly improved, the next two warm-up games have also been won, fans and media are aiming for the three places to promote to the Bundesliga, from the number of fans outside to watch, you can know the enthusiasm and confidence of the fans in this team. Becker is happy about this change, but he can only be happy in his heart, because he knows the current Hoffenheim team very well, although Flick did not bring the team to the Bundesliga last season, but Flick's five years of stable coaching have made this village team cooperate with the skillful fighting positive, once they are underestimated, it is easy to be upset. Becker has suffered from Flick, and last season, that is, the season when Hoffenheim defeated Leverkusen to reach the quarterfinals of the German Cup, Hoffenheim defeated Karlsruhe 4-0 before encountering Leverkusen, but Karlsruhe was not as famous as Leverkusen at that time, so it was ignored. Karlsruhe was in a severe economic crisis and on the verge of bankruptcy, but the 4-0 score was enough to make Becker unforgettable.

"The game against Hoffenheim is our first official game of the season, we must play well, we have a lot of newcomers in the team in the past two years, but there are still a lot of old people, you should know how we lost to Hoffenheim in two years, the four goals as long as the name Hoffenheim is mentioned will be played in my mind like a movie, now the opportunity for revenge is coming, but if we think we can draw Bayern and don't take Hoffenheim to heart, then what awaits us will be a failure." Becker's expression was heavy, without the slightest pre-war passion.

Captain Stoll said: "I was still in my current position in that game, when they were still a five-level amateur team, we didn't take them to heart, but after the game we found that their strength was much better than we thought, very capable of running, we were quickly broken and scored a goal in counterattack, and then we were a little confused, and the opponent played better and better, no matter how to play, in the end the confidence of teammates was lost, and the coach shouted that it was useless." Losing four goals to an amateur team in the fifth division was an eternal pain in my heart. ”

After Stoll and Becker finished speaking, the veteran players of the Karlsruhe team were embarrassed, none of them would forget that game, and the players who did not participate in that game were also infected, and they asked their teammates about the situation of this team, and many Baden players did not know what kind of team Hoffenheim was. When they heard that this was a team built in a village of 3,000 people, they all laughed. Martins laughed and said, "We're not going to lose to a team like this." Kars also couldn't help but laugh: "Fortunately, they drew us, if it is Bayern, I am worried that their stadium will not be able to accommodate Bayern fans." ”

Hoffenheim is under the jurisdiction of the city of Sinsheim, and the young left-back who lives in Sinsheim said: "It's possible that it won't fit because the Hoffenheim stands have only 5,000 seats. But the stands are so close to the stadium that you can see the faces of every fan, you can hear their voices, and if you go to the stadium, you will be scared of the fans. ”

Kars and Eichner are rivals, and the relationship is not very good, sneering: "Do you think I am a hillbilly who has never seen the big world?" I've been to the 70,000-strong Bayern Olympic Stadium and played the UEFA Cup, but I was representing Freiburg. ”

Becker waved his hand to stop the players' chatter, "The league will start soon after the German Cup, and we only have one warm-up game scheduled in between, so we have to play this game as if it were a league and show our new look in front of the fans and the media, so that they will come to support our game." Work with us to get into the Bundesliga, and each of you has a chance, and I want you to train well. ”

Note: (This is a fantasy novel, and it does not fully match the facts, so please do not take it seriously.) In fact, this season's German Cup Hoffenheim played Stuttgart, drew 2:2, and Stuttgart won in extra time. This season's German Cup is also played after the start of the league. ）
