On 3 September, Hoffenheim will face Freiburg, also in the state of Baden-Württemberg, in the fourth round of the league. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Freiburg is a team that is not well-known, but they have produced some famous figures, and the current head coach of the German national team, Joachim Loew, made the first stop of his former professional career.

Now Freiburg can be regarded as the elevator of the Bundesliga and the Bundesliga, and since the nineties of the last century, they have frequently risen and fallen in the two leagues.

Of course, although in the eyes of the top league teams, Freiburg is a bully, but at this level of the Bundesliga, they are a well-deserved veteran powerhouse!

Even stronger than Munich 1860!

Hoffenheim had a tough game and Rangnick took the risk of bringing in new players who hadn't been honed for a few days.

The formation was a 4-3-3 that Rangnick had deliberately practiced last season. Obasi, Eduardo and Ibisevic played as the front trident.

Demba Ba, Copado, and Salihovic make up the midfield three.

Taking out this lineup, Rangnick is clearly going to play with Freiburg offensively.

Freiburg is coached by Robin Dart, who is also an old acquaintance, and he was the coach of the Stegal Kickers last season!

However, taking over the position of head coach of Freiburg, Dart can be described as a lot of pressure!

His predecessor was the legendary coach of Freiburg, Volker Fink (the longest-serving manager in the history of German professional football), who had been in charge of Freiburg since 1991 and brought Freiburg to the Bundesliga for the first time in 1993!

Similarly, because the team has almost failed to qualify for the Bundesliga for the past two years, veteran coach Fink resigned as head coach in May.

After Dart took over Freiburg, the team's record was not ideal, at the beginning of the season, one win, one draw and one loss, the same points as Hoffenheim, but after Hoffenheim, it looked like a difficult brother like Rangnick.

The record is not good, and Dart is under a lot of pressure from the management, so this game, he must win!

Last season, he was beaten by Hoffenheim, Dart can be said to have a deep understanding of Hoffenheim, although he did not guess Hoffenheim's lineup, but his 4-4-2 formation is still very inhibiting Hoffenheim's attack!

The 4-4-2 formation means that the midfield is very strong, Hoffenheim's midfielder is composed of Demba Ba, Kopado and Salihovic, obviously top-heavy, with the ability of Demba Ba and Kopado, the passing is okay, but the ability to connect the team is not at all as good as the orthodox midfielder!

Sure enough, Hoffenheim's failure to attack at the beginning cost them!

In the 9th minute, Freiburg's right winger Kalim Matmoor suddenly hit the frame of the goal from outside the box, but the Hoffenheim player was unable to clear the ball in time and was kicked into the goal by Cape Verdean striker Cafu, who was small but unusually flexible!

However, Hoffenheim's new attacking combination in the front court also showed its power, with the impact ability of Obasi and Demba Ba, as well as Eduardo's various dribbling on the wing, this kind of sharp attack made Freiburg dare not take advantage of the victory to pursue.

But after all, he is a new player, and he doesn't get along with his teammates enough, and he makes frequent mistakes. Kicking and kicking, a one-person performance show began to advance wildly!

This kind of attack is what the German team wants to see!

Obasi and Demba Ba were chased and intercepted in the penalty area with frequent dribbling balls, Hoffenheim's attack was fierce but there were very few shots that really hit the woodwork!

Wasted opportunity, but punished!

In the 40th minute, Freiburg's central defender Daniel Schwab cut in from behind and fired a shot at Loew's foot, but the ball was refracted into the goal behind him!

It's an own goal!

Rao is calm and steady, Loew pulled his hair, and his face was annoyed.

However, towards the end of the first half, Obasi finally lived up to his 5 million euro transfer fee, in the Freiburg penalty area, Salihovic a high long pass, Demba Ba's header was ferried, and Obasi grabbed the goal.

Hoffenheim pulled a point back with difficulty!

In the second half, Rangnick took the initiative to make adjustments, and he replaced Jankel, who made frequent mistakes in the first half, with Weiss, to a certain extent, to strengthen the passing of the midfield and reduce the pressure on Salihovic.

Immediately afterwards, he replaced Eduardo, who was particularly sticky in the first half, with Gustavo, to strengthen the defense at the back.

Rangnick's substitution choice was correct, and after Hoffenheim's midfield tandem was strengthened, Hoffenheim finally equalized the score in the 70th minute!

It was Obasi's goal, Copado was not greedy, his pass in the penalty area set up a gun for Obasi.

However, Hoffenheim was doomed to bad luck in this game!

The first goal conceded was made up after the middle goal frame, the second goal was an own goal by the unlucky guy Loew, and the third goal conceded was a foul by Jaisler, who started today, and directly gave the opponent a penalty!

In the 79th minute, Dennis Ogo, one of Freiburg's hopefuls in recent years, hit the penalty, and Hoffenheim was once again in a behind-the-scoring position!

Although Hoffenheim were awarded a free-kick in the final moments, Beta ran up from the back and opened up with two skills to head home, but it was only an equaliser.

The game ended in a 3-3 draw, and Beta stood at the back, looking at his teammates who were still optimistic, feeling a little helpless.

He didn't blame his teammates!

New team-mates such as Obsi and Demba Ba actually played hard, and with Freiburg's tight defence, they could feel that a draw was not unacceptable.

But Beta was still a little unwilling......

Just like his previous hunch, he had too few resources to gain in the game!

In the past, team-mates would try to get a corner when they didn't find the right opportunity in attack. But Obasi is very stubborn and has to shoot with their feet when they don't have a chance.

"Actually, we have a chance to win!" Beta deeply felt that Freiburg's team was balanced in attack and defense, and its strength was not weaker than that of Munich 1860, but their shortcomings were also obvious, and none of the eleven players on the field, except for the goalkeeper, exceeded 1.9 meters!

Such a team, there is no one who can compete with Beta for the header, look at Beta's header in stoppage time at the end, I am afraid that Beta can easily score the ball without opening the "Angel Blessing".

Demba Ba and Obasi also have the ability to head the ball, but Beta can see from this game that these two guys, in terms of technique and jumping ability, are still far behind themselves.

"How do you convince Rangnick? Convince him that I can score goals too? For the first time, Beta felt lost.
