"Hoffenheim won a corner......" the commentator's voice sounded. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info but louder was the shouting and singing of the Rhine-Neckar Stadium coming from the television. Even through the TV screen, you can clearly feel the warm atmosphere of Hoffenheim's home stadium.

It has always been known that England fans are the most fanatical, and the atmosphere in the Premier League is the best. But that's because they have developed media that can convey this scene to the rest of the world. In fact, the atmosphere of German football is not inferior at all, you must know that the stadium with the highest decibel level in the world is in Germany, and the average attendance rate of the Bundesliga is second only to the Premier League of 91.2 percent, and the average attendance rate of the Bundesliga is 85.2 percent. The Serie A league, which was once a "mini-World Cup" and has fond memories of countless Chinese fans, has the lowest average attendance rate among Europe's top five leagues, at only 57.6 percent.

In terms of madness, German fans are no less than English fans. It's better than the German media, which has always kept a low profile and didn't promote these things much. In addition, English is the lingua franca of the world after all, and there are many people who understand English, so it is natural to promote the Premier League, but German is different.

But don't let that make you think that the German fans are not passionate and enthusiastic, and no one watches the German league.

Listen to the singing of the Stade Rhine-Neckar, which has been full since the day it was built, whether it is a strong team Bayern Munich or a weak team like Ketbus, the stands are always full. What does this mean? It shows that Hoffenheim fans don't come to watch the game for the stars of those strong teams, they are here to support their own team, so they have nothing to do with the opponent.

If the Chinese fans could understand German, they would know that the Hoffenheim fans were shouting: "Hoffenheim! Hoffenheim! Give them a taste of our football!! ”

In the midst of such shouts, several of Hoffenheim's big men rushed to the goal in the penalty area and tangled with Bayern Munich's defenders.

Chu Zhongtian didn't go in, he was standing at the top of the arc of the forbidden area. He's good with bounces and great headers, but he doesn't like to squeeze in front of goal and fight for the ball. No matter how good his header is, it is not wise to fight for the top in the most difficult places. The smart thing to do is to avoid the enemy's most heavily defended parts and attack from the weakest spots.

And on the outside, you can avoid being noticed by the opposing defenders. Now Chu Zhongtian's header kung fu is already a little famous in the Bundesliga, whether it is defense or offense, everyone knows that this person's heading ability is excellent. In the FM football manager game played by SI, which has always been biased against the Bundesliga, in Hoffenheim's Chu Zhongtian, the header value is eighteen, which is already very high.

Bayern Munich forgot this when they were defending, maybe Heynckes didn't tell them before the game, maybe they did, but they forgot now, anyway, Hoffenheim have two central defenders and a full-back, and the equally tall Demba. When Ba and Obasi both rushed to the goal, Bayern's defenders suddenly felt that the defensive strength was stretched, and even one person could not mark one, let alone take care of those who were not in front of goal. Even if they knew that Chu Zhongtian's header was very powerful, I am afraid that they would not take him to heart at this time, after all, he was far away from the goal, and generally players would feel that the farther away from the goal, the lower the threat, and the closer to the goal, the higher the threat, and the defenders should of course give priority to the players with high threats.

Only Ribery noticed Chu Zhongtian, but just as he was about to rush over to defend, he was blocked by his team-mates and Hoffenheim players in front of him, and then Salihovic's corner was kicked out...... Ribery, who was in the crowd, could only watch as the football drew an outer arc, bypassing the crowd in front of the goal, and flying towards the penalty spot, and then his teammate in Metz, Chu Zhongtian, rushed in from the outside, jumped high in the sprint, and then shook his head to attack the goal...... "Chu!" Header! goooooooooooal！！ ”

"It's ...... Header! Ay? The ball is in! The ball is in!! ”

The Rhine-Neckar Stadium burst into thunder.

"Chu! Clear! Clear! The shouts resounded in the sky.

Chu Zhongtian, who landed in the air, turned his head to look at Bayern Munich's goal, and from the crack, he saw that the football was falling in Bayern Munich's goal.

Confirming his goal, he spread his arms and turned and ran towards the South Stand, where the hardcore Hoffenheim fans gathered. It was a sea of blue, and Hoffenheim fans were waving blue scarves in their hands and chanting the name of their captain.

Chu Zhongtian waved his fist at the enthusiastic fans, and as he moved, the fans in the stands shouted louder and louder.

At this critical moment of deciding whether to win the championship or not, everyone was enthusiastic and forgetful.

※※※ Emily looked at Chu Zhongtian who opened his mouth wide and shouted in front of the TV, fascinated by him who was focused. She can only cheer for her lover in the United States in this game, but she has already booked a ticket to Germany the day after tomorrow, and she will be with Chu Zhongtian in the last game of the league this season.

Mom walked over and glanced at the TV, just in time to see that the live broadcast gave Chu Zhongtian a close-up, and Chu Zhongtian's expression in the picture even looked a little hideous.

"Did he score?" Miranda was a little surprised.

"Hmm!" Emily couldn't take her eyes off the TV screen and nodded vigorously, very happy.

Miranda pouted, she had already heard her daughter say that Hoffenheim could become the Bundesliga champion. She is not a fool, and she also knows that if Hoffenheim becomes the Bundesliga champion, it will be a good thing for Chu Zhongtian.

But seeing that kid so proud, she was still a little unhappy in her heart. The script she wrote for her daughter was originally well acted, she learned drama acting, hooked up with famous Hollywood producers, came to Hollywood to develop, became a star, and then found a rich and famous man who loved her...... Unexpectedly, at Wimbledon, a Chinese kid who had never heard of her was born and changed her script, and since then, her daughter has taken a different path and got involved with a football player...... In the UK, there is a lot of negative press about footballers, and it has never stopped. In Miranda's view, Hollywood movie stars are gentlemen, while football players are gangsters from the slums, they are uneducated, and it is easy to lose themselves with a little money.

Although Chu Zhongtian is not an Englishman who likes to drink heavily, he is also a football player.

It's just that her daughter is so infatuated with that man, and even runs away from home for him, and she can't do anything about it...... ※※※ Bayern head coach Heynckes was so shocked by Chu Zhongtian's goal that he got up from his seat, and this balance was broken and made him feel very tricky.

The team's morale, which had finally recovered, was beaten back by this goal. To make matters worse, the goal upset the balance on the pitch and Hoffenheim took the lead. The leader tends to play better because they have a psychological advantage, and psychology always plays an important role in the game, and no one dares to underestimate the impact of psychology on the players.

The main reason why the Hoffenheim players have a huge psychological advantage is that they scored another goal five minutes after conceding to regain the lead, which would be a hint to the players: we are better than them, and lo and behold, we scored again, we are still ahead!

Such hints will make players more confident on the field, and many difficult actions that they dare not do can be done well.

On the contrary, Bayern's players will be negatively affected.

So Heynckes reacted violently to the goal, he knew what the goal meant to Bayern, he needed to pay a lot of price and effort to save the situation, and he didn't know if it worked...... Bayern Munich didn't immediately launch a counterattack after conceding the goal, they were obviously a little stunned by Hoffenheim taking the lead again so quickly.

Although Heynckes was on the sidelines to direct the game for the rest of the game, Bayern Munich's performance never improved.

However, Hoffenheim took advantage of the victory and launched a number of dangerous attacks, and if it wasn't for their goalscorers not taking full advantage of their chances, or if they weren't lucky, the score would have been unknowingly even...... Marcel. Leif was even in the mood to tease Ibisevic lying on the bed: "How would Ibisevic feel if he saw his teammates in front of the TV? If Ibisevic had been there, maybe the game would have lost its suspense in the first half! ”

Until the referee Weiner blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the score was still 2:1, and the home team Hoffenheim took the lead.

Singing erupted at the Rhine-Neckar stadium, and in the midst of these songs, Bayern head coach Heynckes' expression was very ugly.

Most of the proud Bayern players walked off the pitch at half-time with their heads down, and this first half was not a good one for them, except for one time when Franck Ribery shone brightly, Bayern's performance was lackluster for most of the time.

On the contrary, Hoffenheim's players walked off the pitch with relaxed expressions and most of them still smiling. Rangnick, on the other hand, stood on the sidelines and when he saw a player coming down, he went up and patted them on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement and approval.

When it was Chu Zhongtian's turn, he didn't pat his shoulder, but hugged Chu Zhongtian. This special treatment shows Chu Zhongtian's status in Rangnick's heart.

"Well done, Chu." When hugging, he said in Chu Zhongtian's ear. "It was a very timely and beautiful goal!"

※※※ At halftime, there was no game to watch, but Albert was very happy, at first he thought that Hoffenheim was hanging in the balance, but he didn't expect that the Chinese Chu would score again so quickly. It was a great deal for Hoffenheim, who did not score again before half-time.

He was surrounded by people who went to buy beers, others who stayed in their seats and discussed the first half with great interest, and it was a happy and wonderful forty-five minutes for the Hoffenheim fans. Of course, if it weren't for Chu Zhongtian's header, it would be difficult to say these forty-five minutes.

Abel was a little shy at first, surrounded by people he didn't know, and he was just listening. Later, everyone was in high spirits, and he listened to it with itching, and when he had ideas to say, he simply intervened and expressed his opinion on other people's opinions, either to praise the performance of the Hoffenheim players, or to predict the performance of both sides in the second half.

His views were mostly convincing, and gradually, everyone turned their attention to him. And the more he talked, the more interested he became, and he forgot all about his shyness and everything...... ※※※ Abel talked loudly in the crowd of fans, and the players of the two teams could behave differently in the locker room.

The Hoffenheim players were in high spirits and they came back to the dressing room talking loudly about the first half of the game and looking happy.

And there was some silence in the dressing room of Bayern Munich.

Heynckes is not the kind of manager who will scold his players in the dressing room, he is a mild-mannered old man, which may have something to do with his early years of wandering around the world, after all, when he coached the team as a foreign coach, communication, respect and sensitivity were crucial to the success of the team.

He is still the same. So although his face was not very good at the end of the first half, he returned to the dressing room and still did not scold the whole team. But he didn't speak, he didn't know what to say, and his own mind hadn't calmed down at this time.

Bayern's players were also uncomfortable with a bad first half, or overwhelmed, and kept their heads silent at this time. For a moment, there was no sound in the locker room except for the sound of breathing and footsteps.

It was only after a while that Heynckes decided to say something.

'You played badly in the first half, nothing but one goal. That goal was the result of a defensive mistake by the opponent. If you don't find a way to turn it around in the second half, then we're going to lose. ”

He said, looking at the players.

'We're in a dangerous position right now, think about it, what would happen to us in the league table if we lose here to Hoffenheim? We could lose our qualification for next season's Champions League. We've already lost the league title, should we lose the Champions Cup? Which of you would like to play in the UEFA Cup next season? ”

Heynckes asked, and no one said they wanted to.

What kind of team is Bayern Munich? They are the giants of the Bundesliga and have dominated the country's top flight for decades, giving other teams a chance to make waves except for the occasional nap. Such a team is Germany's Real Madrid, the second place in the league is a failure, not to mention that they can't even qualify for the Champions Cup, it can be described as a "scandal", especially since they just participated in the League Cup last season, and if they are participating in the next season...... Will the media call Bayern Munich a "UEFA Cup-level team" in the future? How can this be embarrassing for the always proud Bayern players?

To be able to play for Bayern is a top honour for a German player, and playing at Bayern Munich gives the players a natural sense of pride. Maybe this is the aristocratic temperament, which is different from the grassroots like Hoffenheim. They cannot tolerate failure and being insulted, especially by grass people.

If you lose to Hoffenheim away from home, you will undoubtedly be insulted by the grass people.

"In the second half, we have to strengthen our defense against their number eight and stay ...... an inch"

Heynckes has seen the change in his players and he knows his words have made a difference. For Bayern players, pride is their trait, proud they can underestimate their opponents, and proud they can also burst out with great energy in adverse situations, causing all opponents to disappear. This is the heritage of the wealthy family.

And that's something Hoffenheim doesn't have.

※※※ Over there, Bayern Munich was studying how to deal with Chu Zhongtian, and Hoffenheim here was not carried away by the excellent performance in the first half. This team has suffered a lot of defeats this season, especially in the second half of the season. These failures are invaluable assets for Hoffenheim today.

Rangnick once proudly said to the media that Hoffenheim is a team that can grow from every defeat and keep going. He has a point. Hoffenheim did learn from those defeats and now they don't go too far ahead of Bayern.

They still listened attentively as Rangnick told them about the second half.

'Ribery is a dangerous guy and in the first half he changed his style of play and no longer moved on the flanks and aggressively demanded the ball, but went into the box and ambushed like a striker. That's how Bayern's goal went in. This should be your concern and someone has to deal with Ribery in the second half. ”

"But coach, we all have a fixed target...... Cumper should pay attention to Tony, I have to guard against Podolsky...... "Pell. Nelson asked, raising his hand.

"I'll go defend Ribery." Without waiting for Rangnick to answer, Chu Zhongtian took the initiative to ask. Just like Ribery regarded this game as a contest between himself and Chu Zhongtian, Chu Zhongtian also had similar thoughts, this game is of course related to whether Hoffenheim can finally win the league championship, but Chu Zhongtian does not mind competing with Ribery in the game. On the surface, Ribery has always been a head above him in every way - he has joined a team that is a big club, a higher salary than him, has participated in the World Cup, and has won the World Cup runner-up, and is a world superstar. As for himself, his resume is similar to his, his honor is similar, he is always looked down upon, he is not a mud bodhisattva, and he also wants to prove that he is not worse than Ribery.

Rangnick smiled. He thought of the fact that he had put Chu Zhongtian on the right side to keep an eye on Ribery, but he didn't expect that Chu Zhongtian would still be asked to keep an eye on Ribery in this game.

Of course, Chu Zhongtian only defended Ribery when Bayern was attacking, and what should he do at other times. This requires Chu Zhongtian to keep shuttling back and forth at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, and even sometimes has to repeat the sprint, which is a great test of his physical fitness, and the weather is hot today, and the physical consumption is greater.

But Rangnick is not worried that Chu Zhongtian will be physically exhausted, in his opinion, Chu Zhongtian is the most physical player he has ever seen. Such a task, other players may not be able to complete it, but Chu Zhongtian should be able to.

So he didn't say anything, and nodded: "Then you pay attention to defending Ribery's shots." ”

"Let's take a look at the others...... "Originally, Ribery was Bayern's biggest threat, but when Chu Zhongtian took the initiative to ask for help, in Rangnick's view, the biggest threat was a solution, so he naturally focused on other Bayern players.

Chu Zhongtian smiled slightly, hoping that Ribery would not be too surprised when he saw him in the second half......
