Chapter 54: The Core Returns

"Haha! Ahaha! A hillbilly is a hillbilly! You think you can hail victory by scoring one goal from us? Dream on!! Daniel clenched his fists in the stands and yelled at the pitch. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The hardcore and diehardest Bayern fans around him are doing the same.

Abel stood in the crowd with his neck hunched, a little frustrated. Hoffenheim finally failed to withstand Bayern's attack, conceding one goal and conceding a second goal soon after...... From his point of view as a spectator, Hoffenheim was disrupted after conceding a goal, a little unbalanced psychologically and inattentive, so Bayern seized the opportunity to score another goal.

And this happened with Bayern Munich - when Hoffenheim scored, Bayern Munich did not do well. But Hoffenheim didn't catch it.

No wonder so many people were optimistic that Bayern could win easily before the game, and it was not for nothing that ...... "Little Abel, my dear little Abel!" You see, this is the real strength of Bayern! Don't think that your little hillbilly team can go against the odds after winning a few games! At the Allianz Arena, this is our place! Want to win us? In another 10,000 years!! Hahaha! ”

Daniel smeared Abel's face with a foaming star. Abel didn't even dare to wipe it.

β€»β€»β€» "Tony! Tony! Oooooooo He finally didn't waste his chance this time, he shot! The ball is in! ”

"Bayern Munich has overtaken the score!"

"It's Bayern Munich!!"

When Toney finally scored, commentators around the world threw praise at Bayern Munich.

'They could have hoped to end the game after Hoffenheim's goal, when Bayern Munich were on the verge of collapse and the team was in disarray, both offensively and defensively. But Hoffenheim himself did not take the chance. Now Bayern Munich has been relieved and scored two goals in a row! ”

"If you want me to say, that's why Bayern Munich are giants and Hoffenheim is just a promoted horse playing in the Bundesliga for the first time! In the face of adversity, the big teams are always able to save the day because of their historical background and accumulation, they have a lot of experience. And the promoted horses are much worse in this regard, they are inexperienced! ”

"It's a shame...... However, Hoffenheim are still a team full of hope. I think in another five years, they will be able to shake the foundation of Bayern Munich's dominance. But this season, they may only be spectators......"

Luca after the goal. Instead of the usual celebratory gesture he was using - putting his right hand to his ear and turning his wrist - he had forgotten to do so in such excitement that he ran out of the box, made a gesture with both hands with his gun, and "fired" at his teammates who rushed up to celebrate!

It was Batistuta's celebration after the goal, and it shows how excited Toney was inside.

How is this like a race against a promoted horse? More like the joy after scoring a goal in the Champions League final.

The Hoffenheim players were frustrated after seeing their opponents score. They played against Bayern for nearly 70 minutes, but they didn't expect the final score to be 1:2, and they fell behind. Could it be that Bayern Munich is really that strong? Too powerful to shake?

Chu Zhongtian was also a little frustrated, but the next second he realized that now was not the time to be depressed, because the game was not over yet, and if he chose to give up now, then Bayern Munich's goal would come. Didn't Bayern's celebrities all publish articles before the game, claiming that Bayern Munich would easily beat Hoffenheim in the game?

Isn't this kind of performance a shame for others?

"Don't give up!" He turned around and shouted at his teammates who were still gathered near the penalty area. "We have twenty minutes left!"

"Now Chu Zhongtian must be hoping that his previous cross was touched into the goal by his teammates......" Seeing Chu Zhongtian shouting at his teammates on the field, Duan Bin said. If that goal had gone in, maybe the game wouldn't have been the way it is......"

While the Bayern Munich players were celebrating their goals frantically and the Hoffenheim players were still on the pitch, Rangnick was quickly emerging from the disappointment of conceding a goal, and he would not have been able to concede a goal in the last minute of the game. But now there are 20 minutes left in the game, and it has not yet reached the point of exhaustion, as long as it is adjusted in time, this game will still be played.

He called Weiss up. Weiss was in agony over the team's second goal.

"Go warm up!" He patted Weiss on the shoulder and pushed him out.

Weiss couldn't care about the pain and regret of the team's loss of the goal at this time, and hurriedly put on his vest and ran to the warm-up area. He knew his chance to play!

In this moment, excitement and anticipation prevailed over pain and disappointment. To be able to play Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena is like a dream for Weiss!

β€»β€»β€» The game restarted, Bayern Munich took advantage of the momentum of their goal, launched a fierce attack on the Hoffenheim penalty area, they hoped to score another goal to rewrite the score to 3:1, so that Hoffenheim was completely out of play.

"Let's defend first!" If he was playing in Metz, Chu Zhongtian would definitely say so. But now at Hoffenheim, he's thinking, "We've got to find an opportunity to attack." You can't always be pressed and beaten by Bayern, then sooner or later it will collapse. We have to attack, and we have to attack to let Bayern know that we're not dead! ”

For this reason, he refused to let Ibisevic come back to defend, because Ibisevic is the center forward at the top, if he comes back, then who will he go to pass the ball when attacking?

Seeing his team take the lead, Ribery was alive again, and he frequently raised his hand on the sidelines to ask for the ball.

After receiving the ball, he singled out Chu Zhongtian.

Although he was anxious and worried about the current situation, Chu Zhongtian was still meticulous when defending Ribery. Against Chu Zhongtian, Ribery was still unable to deliver a lethal pass to his team-mate.

This continued for five minutes, after which the fourth official held up a sign for substitutions on the sidelines.

Twenty-one Gustavo down, seventeenth Weiss.

After Weiss came on the field, he ran straight to Chu Zhongtian and said to him: "I'll defend Ribery, you go to the middle." ”

Rangnick liberated Chu Zhongtian, obviously he also knew that if he wanted to fight back, Chu Zhongtian's role was irreplaceable.

Chu Zhongtian didn't express surprise, this was also the best solution he could think of.

Weiss is already a defensive midfielder, so it would be appropriate for him to defend Ribery.

Soon Ribery found that Chu Zhongtian had left his side and appeared in the position of the lower back.

He was overjoyed and thought his chance had come.

However, in the face of Weiss, who had just come on the field, his dribbling still did not form a breakthrough. The ball was kicked off the touchline by Weiss one step ahead.

Ribery will find that this "German Gattuso" is no easier to deal with than Chu Zhongtian.

β€»β€»β€»"Chu Zhongtian appeared in the position of the lower back...... It looks like Rangnick has made his adjustments. In this way, Chu Zhongtian can be completely liberated! In fact, it should have been this way a long time ago! ”

When Chu Zhongtian just returned to the midfield position, no one had paid attention to this adjustment, and the Bayern Munich players wanted to score again. But soon Fan. Bommel's ball was broken by Chu Zhongtian.

For the first time, the two midfielders went head-to-head, with the Bayern Munich captain losing to Hoffenheim's captain.

Fan. Bomel was obviously unprepared for Chu Zhongtian's robbery, and patronized to observe the surrounding situation, but he didn't expect Chu Zhongtian to move so quickly. After the ball was broken, he reacted quickly and immediately reached for it, hoping to use a tactical foul to organize Hoffenheim's fast break - although he was ahead, he did not forget what Hoffenheim's characteristics were.

But he underestimated how strong Chu Zhongtian was.

It didn't pull it down, but Chu Zhongtian shook his arm and got rid of Fan. Beaumel's defense, dribbling and killing!

There were four people in front of him - Ibisevic, Obasi, Demba. Ba and Eduardo, of which Eduardo and Ibisevic are the most advanced, while Obsi and Demba. Ba assists the defense on the wing.

Seeing Chu Zhongtian take the ball forward, Obasi and Demba. Barton threw down his defensive mission and rushed forward!

"Hoffenheim's counterattack is coming!" Duan Bin shouted.

Chu Zhongtian had no intention of passing the ball and broke through Fan. After Bommel's defense, there was only Ze who was not far away in front of him. Roberto. The Brazilian has won 66 per cent of his last 15 league games, with an additional 26 successful interceptions.

He is a player who defends well.

But in the face of such an experienced veteran player, Chu Zhongtian still had no intention of passing the ball to avoid his edge.

There are many ways to attack, and what Hoffenheim need now is a morale-boosting attacking defence, and there's nothing quite like getting past multiple defenders and then directly threatening the opposing goal.

Chu Zhongtian decided to pass him!

Marsh. Roberto wasn't sure if Chu Zhongtian had thought about him or wanted to pass the ball, he had observed it before, Obasi and Demba. The two wingers, who were supposed to assist the defence, were moving forward, while Ibisevic and Eduardo were dropping back slightly to pick up, and the clever thing to do at this time seemed to be passing. But...... Looking at Chu Zhongtian, who was getting closer and closer, he couldn't make up his mind again.

In close proximity to Ze. When Roberto, Chu Zhongtian slowed down slightly, leaned slightly sideways, and faced the right side, making a move to pass the ball to Eduardo on the right.

Marsh. Roberto was unmoved. Maybe it's a feint? He thought so.

It wasn't until Chu Zhongtian's right foot was raised, which was indeed a preparatory action for passing, that his center of gravity quickly shifted. But then he saw Chu Zhongtian's right foot fall, but instead of passing, he twisted his ankle and hooked the football back, and then kicked it with his left foot. Roberto's side of his body wiped over!

"It's over, pretty!!" Duan Bin applauded Chu Zhongtian's excellence. Although he is a Bayern fan, he must support his compatriots at this time.

The Hoffenheim fans in the stands shouted and cheered for Chu Zhongtian.

Hoffenheim had been pressed and beaten by Bayern Munich before, and they could only listen to the cheers of Bayern Munich's fans. Now Chu Zhongtian's superiority has made everyone angry-we are also attacking, and we have also begun to fight back!

Over Ze. Roberto's Chu Zhongtian directly faced Bayern's defense, Lucio and Van Bitten, Lucio was pulled out by Ibisevic, and Van Bitten was protected in the back.

Ibisevic leaned on Lucio and faced Chu Zhongtian. This is a standard receiving position for a center. On the other hand, it also shows that Lucio's defense is very successful, and Ibisevic cannot turn easily, so he can only receive the ball with his back to the attack.

Chu Zhongtian did not continue to dribble the ball, but passed the football to Ibisevic, and then he continued to run forward. Seeing him continue to run forward, both Lucio and Van Bitten became nervous - this is a typical one-two position!

Lucio continued to wait for Ibisevic, but Van Bitten did not protect him in the back, but moved his position sideways, blocking the front of Chu Zhongtian's running route, preparing to defend Chu Zhongtian.

Ibisevic didn't stop the ball, and at the same time as Chu Zhongtian passed the ball, he leaned back and was ready to pass the ball directly. But he didn't pass the football to Chu Zhongtian, but to Eduardo, who was picking up him on the other side!

Lahm had already gone up to assist, Eduardo's side was empty, and Chu Zhongtian's movement attracted the defensive attention of Bayern Munich's central defenders for Eduardo.

It was a beautiful fit!

Eduardo received the ball without a single defender around.

Lucio saw that it was Eduardo who received the ball, and hurriedly threw Ibisevic to save Eduardo. At the same time, Van Bitten was also moving towards Eduardo, Eduardo did not continue to dribble the ball, and when he saw that Bayern's defense was loose, he directly got up and crossed at a 45-degree angle outside the penalty area!

Chu Zhongtian happened to run to the penalty spot at this time, he jumped high in the run, header!

"Chu Zhongtian shook his head and attacked the door-"

Lensing jumped up to make a brilliant save as he single-handedly lifted Chu Zhongtian's header over the crossbar.

"Hoffenheim's offensive line this time is clear, fast and concise, when Chu completes the header, Van Bommel who lost the ball has just returned to the front of the penalty area - from breaking the ball to completing the shot, Hoffenheim only took 20 seconds, three passes, it is really a typical Hoffenheim attack!"

"This is the Hoffenheim we know! Ha! Chu finally returned to his best midfield position, personally broke the ball and then launched an attack, and finally completed the shot himself. At a time when Hoffenheim needed someone to step up and turn the tide of things, Chu stepped up! When Bayern Munich was on the verge of collapse, it was Lahm who stepped up, and this time Chu became the pillar of Hoffenheim! ”

Chu Zhongtian, who scored with a header, turned around and hooked his hands at his teammates, signaling them to come up and take a corner kick.

He didn't shout any grandiose words, but his team-mates were much more energetic in their running movements – and they saw hope of an equaliser from the attack. Chu is right, the game is not over yet, there are still twenty minutes left!

β€»β€»β€»After Chu Zhongtian returned to the position of the midfielder, Hoffenheim's attack returned to its normal level. He didn't just build a line of defense in front of his own back line, so that Van . Bommel and Ze. Roberto has a lot of headaches and can also use his big picture and passing to create a killing chance for his teammates. He handles the ball cleanly in a midfield position and he often has a plan about what to do next before he even gets his hands on it.

He didn't have to stop and look around and think: What should I do? What should I do?

Many players are hesitant to pick up the ball on the pitch because they don't know what to do and what to do. In junior high school, God didn't have such troubles, his super intuition allowed him to always be one step ahead of the situation and grasp the opportunity. There are some things that don't need to be analyzed, and his intuition tells him what to do and how to do it.

It's a gift.

When he was in Metz, this talent was not obvious enough, and Chu Zhongtian needed to observe the running position by himself, and at the same time cooperate with the whole team. And now after coming to Hoffenheim, this talent is becoming more and more obvious, and fortunately, Hoffenheim is a team that pays attention to speed, and the whole team's running and thinking are used to this fast football method, so that they can keep up with Chu Zhongtian's ideas.

Chu Zhongtian encountered such an embarrassment in the national team - his ideas were too advanced, but his teammates couldn't think of it, or he thought that his body couldn't keep up, resulting in no one receiving his passes, and it looked like Chu Zhongtian couldn't pass the ball, and he always lost the football.

In Metz he controls it, in Hoffenheim he doesn't have to control it, and he can use this talent to the fullest.

In the 75th minute, after Hoffenheim's attack rewrote the threat to Bayern's goal, Rangnick decided to add fuel to the fire by bringing on Salihovic for Obasi.

Salihovic was held back for a day, and Rangnick slapped him twice on the shoulder before coming on the pitch. Rangnick still hasn't explained why he was on the bench, but the duo have worked together for more than two seasons and everything that needs to be said is in this shot. Salihovic knows that manager Rangnick still trusts him, and that's enough.

The team went from 433 to 442, with Salihovic playing at left midfield, Eduardo playing as a central midfielder and Weiss on the right, as Ribery returned to the left wing. Schweinsteiger was average, and Klinsmann replaced him with Borowski (tim_borowski), who was all-around with his left and right feet, and he went to play on the right wing.

The two sides are back on the track of attacking each other, and the scene of Bayern Munich pressing Hoffenheim to play, or Hoffenheim pressing Bayern Munich to play is gone.

It's just that because Chu Zhongtian is in the middle of the road, Fan. Bommel and Ze. Roberto and the two of them will always actively return to the defense after stepping forward to participate in the attack - the previous attack when Chu Zhongtian almost knocked on the goal guarded by Lensing, the two of them seemed a little less active in the process of returning to the defense. Beaumel ran too slowly, Ze. Roberto was not actively pursued after being passed. This made Klinsmann very unhappy off the field. Now the two of them have to do a little bit more defensively. It didn't matter if they didn't do their best before, Gustavo hadn't sent them too many troubles and threats. But Chu Zhongtian is different, he is the core of Hoffenheim, he is the transfer target of the Bundesliga this season, and he has proved that he is worthy of the 30 million euros with his actual performance in the first fifteen rounds of the league. He can score goals, he can play key defence in key places, and his playmaking skills are outstanding.

Chu Zhongtian was defeated by Fan after a pass in the midfield. Bommel went down, it was a foul against Chu Zhongtian, not a steal against football. Chu Zhongtian caused a lot of trouble for Bayern Munich in the midfield. Bommel had to use this way to warn Chu Zhongtian to be honest.

The referee gave the Bayern captain a yellow card.

Fan. Bommel didn't take it seriously, he just stared at Chu Zhongtian. He hoped that this time he had made that Chinese suffer...... Deterrence on the pitch is also a very effective means of defense.
