When Chu Zhongtian and his teammates warmed up at the Karl Benz Stadium, he saw that the stands were all full. The fans in the blue jersey www.biquge.info support Hoffenheim, who are about 10,000 people. The yellow and black jerseys were definitely the Dortmund fans, there were about 5,000 of them, and the fans who were dressed in colour and colour were non-Hoffenheim and Dortmund fans. In previous games, these people were neutral fans, but today it was different, and there were quite a few people in this group who clearly supported Dortmund, as you can tell from the slogans they put up.

The slogan "Legion of Bitches" still appears in the stands of the stadium, Hoffenheim have played four league games and have seen it all since the first game. The first "feat" made by Cartbus fans quickly became popular across the country, and fans of any team that rivaled Hoffenheim would display such slogans during the game to attack Hoffenheim.

"How did we become the villains of the movie?" Ibisevic was somewhat unhappy with the way the fans did this. Players are human beings, and even professional players have no reason to accept such insults.

Chu Zhongtian tugged at his arm: "Okay, don't worry about it so much." You can't stop them from scolding you, and even if you score their goal, they'll just scold even crazier. "He's always believed in the creed of not having a war of words with anyone because he knew it didn't work. Just as the media and fans questioned his decision to move to Hoffenheim, he never opened his mouth to defend his explanation and argue with those people. The power of silence is because no matter how much you say, it is better to make achievements.

"So how do you stop them?" Ibisevic is still unhappy. Of course he is unhappy, he was scolded as a "bitch" for no reason, who can feel cool? Even if a real bitch wants to set up a chastity archway, let alone someone who is not a bitch at all. He paused for a moment, then suddenly said, "What if...... I mean, if we win the Bundesliga. Will they shut up? ”

Chu Zhongtian glanced at the fans who held up the slogans insulting Hoffenheim and greeting the female relatives of Hoffenheim club owner Hope, and shook his head: "No, they will still scold you." ”

"So what about how many championships I won? I don't know if it's the Bundesliga champion or the Champions League? Ibshevic asked again.

Chu Zhongtian continued to shake his head: "No, they will still scold you." ”

Ibishevi screamed strangely: "It's not endless! ”

Chu Zhongtian smiled and patted it: "You're going to die of this heart, Ibi." I tell you, don't take your opponent's insults and attacks as insults, just take them as compliments. ”

"Praise? How can this be considered a compliment? Do you think they're calling you a 'bitch' and you're still happy? Ibisevic felt that Chu Zhongtian's statement was too strange.

What surprised him even more was that Chu Zhongtian actually nodded.

"Of course, that's what I've always seen. They scolded us, which means that they are afraid of us. You see, if we were a Bundesliga team and we had to fight to stay in the second division every season, and any team could easily fix us when they saw us, would their supporters be so crazy about attacking us? ”

Ibisevic froze for a moment, then shook his head.

"So yes. Man will never attack the ants under his feet with the most vicious language, because it is too easy to crush them. But we will insult an enemy who is a great threat to us, so why should we curse? Because we have no other way to do it than scold them and let out breath with our mouths, we can't defeat them, and we can't resist them, so we can only scold with our mouths. Now that's what they are. Chu Zhongtian pointed to the slogan of "Legion of Bitches" in the stands and said to Ibisevic.

"They know we're strong, they know they don't have a chance of winning, but they don't want to throw in the towel, so they have to fight back like that. But being scolded by them doesn't make us lose, so they scold if they want. I don't care anyway, and I'm still happy. Because the more frantically your opponents attack you, the more dangerous you are to them. It's a disguised compliment, and they may not admit it themselves, but that's what it is. So, they're praising us because we've made them panic. ”

After speaking, Chu Zhongtian continued to do his pre-game warm-up.

Ibshevic stood still, recalling Chu Zhongtian's words. Then he looked at the slogans of the fans in the stands, and then tilted his head and muttered, "Afraid of us? Will Dortmund be afraid of us? ”

The Dortmund fans chanted slogans from the stands for Hope to die, and the Hoffenheim fans were not to be outdone, they also fought back with the slogan: "If you're jealous, just say it!" ”

Dortmund fans immediately responded: "Dortmund jealous of Hoffenheim? It's the funniest joke I've ever heard in my life! Hahaha! ”

The Mannheim police, who were in charge of security for the match, were on the verge of being a formidable enemy.

German fans have never let the English be the best when it comes to making trouble.

Germany and England have a long-standing feud and both sides have to compete in all aspects, especially in football, and the national team and club competitions are naturally the focus of competition between the two sides, but when it comes to football hooliganism, both countries are not willing to be left behind.

Before the game even started, the atmosphere at Karl Benz Stadium was already a bit tense.

This surprised many Chinese reporters who came to the scene - this is just an ordinary league game, and the two teams have no grudges before, why is there such a strong hostility in the stands?

Many of them have not been in contact with Hoffenheim for a long time, and it is impossible to know everything about German football except when they are in Sinsheim and report on Hoffenheim. Naturally, I don't know much about the German fans' feelings towards Hoffenheim.

Some Chinese journalists began to worry about whether the tense atmosphere would affect Chu Zhongtian's performance, and whether Chu Zhongtian could still perform at a normal level in such an environment, just by looking at the swear words and aggressive slogans in the stands.

Amid the bickering of fans on both sides, Hoffenheim and Borussia Dortmund have finished their warm-up and returned to their respective dressing rooms. After a 20-minute break, they'll be back on the pitch and that's when the game begins.

Promoted horses usually encounter a strong team like Dortmund, and the first thing they think about must be relegation. But this rule doesn't work for Hoffenheim.

Now Hoffenheim, the whole team is holding back their energy, because the media is one-sided that they will lose, and other fans except the fans of the team also support them to lose, which makes them full of fighting spirit, vowing to win the game and prove it to everyone.

Hoffenheim really didn't come to relegate from the First Division, we did try to win every game.

Rangnick looked at his men, he already saw something like this in the eyes of these people. The game itself doesn't need him to say anything more.

He just said to the players: "Don't be distracted by outside factors and play our football well." Remember, our goal is not relegation, we have bigger goals. ”

Everyone nodded.

Yes, they are not reconciled to just relegation, they want to stay in the Bundesliga in addition to the glory.

On the other side, Borussia Dortmund's manager Jurgen Klopp (jurgen_klopp) is mobilising his players.

"Hoffenheim are a team that is very attacking but not defensive. We can't hold out from behind, and if you don't put more pressure on them, they'll do whatever they want outside our box! Think of Stuttgart. ”

Klopp believes that the reason why Stuttgart was embarrassed throughout the game was that they relaxed after the first ten minutes of attacking smoothly, which allowed Hoffenheim to seize the opportunity to completely turn the situation around, and the game was always in Hoffenheim's hands after that.

And that's what he wants to do to avoid that. Therefore, he will never give Hoffenheim a chance to turn the tables, he will put huge pressure on the opponent as soon as he comes up, and use the offensive attack to press Hoffenheim has no time to counterattack, and can only be exhausted in defense, and finally make mistakes in the rush and completely collapse.

"So we have to attack, we have to dare to press out and fight against them!"

At the same time that Klopp said this, Rangnick said something similar in front of his players.

'Our specialty is attacking, and against a team like Borussia Dortmund it's useless to counter-attack, we have to press them with attack, just like we pressed Stuttgart. So attack, don't stop! ”

The tone of the game was set by both managers.

When Chu Zhongtian and Weidenfeller (roman_weidenfeller) led their respective teams into the stadium, the fans at the scene let out a deafening shout.

At this time, the Dortmund fans could not care about attacking Hoffenheim, and they had to cheer for their warriors.

Next, the captains of the two sides exchange flags and guess the coins to pick the edges.

Chu Zhongtian still remembers the words of head coach Rangnick, asking the team to attack as much as possible and keep attacking, just like in the game against Stuttgart. So he deliberately lost the right to pick the edge, allowing Weidenfeller to get the right to pick the edge and his own right to kick off.

Then Chu Zhongtian waved his hand and asked his teammates to surround him.

Hoffenheim's starting line-up was almost their strongest line-up.

He looked at his teammates and didn't have any extra words, just said to them: "Attack this game, score as many goals as you can, guys!" ”

No matter how beautiful the words are, it is useless, the leader still has to lead the team by practical actions, this is the difference between "give me up" and "follow me". Chu Zhongtian is very clear about this. So he just reminded his teammates and didn't say anything more.

The players from both sides returned to their positions and stood still for kick-off, and the shouts of insults to Hoffenheim in the stands rang out again, only before they could form the climate before they were overshadowed by louder chants from the Hoffenheim fans.

"Come on! Come on! Hoffenheim club is the best!! Come on! Come on! Hoffenheim club is the best!! ”

While the fans were doing all this, the owner of the club, Dietma, who was sitting on the rostrum watching the game. Hope sang along with them.

After singing, he sat down to the president of the Dortmund club, Reinhard. Dr. Laubal (reinhard_rauball) smiled and apologized: "You know, Dr. Laubar, I'm a die-hard Hoffenheim fan. ”

Dortmund's club president nodded: "Of course I know, you're at your own convenience, Mr. Hope." ”

On the field, Hoffenheim's Ibisevic and Demba. Ba went to tee off, and Chu Zhongtian gestured to Ibyshevic from behind, telling him to rush forward as soon as he kicked off and burst through the middle.

Ibisevic nodded his head to indicate that he understood.

The televised footage of the signs in the stands insulting Hoffenheim was taken, and one of them was given a close-up. It was a slogan insulting Chu Zhongtian: "Go back to your mother's stomach and eat semen!" Chinese bastard! ”

The camera pulled out again, and Chu Zhongtian happened to be on the same line as the slogans, but he looked focused, looking straight ahead, and was not moved by those slogans at all.

After the referee and the fourth official on the field exchanged time, the whistle for the start of the game was blown.

※※※ "CCTV, CCTV. Good evening ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the 2008-2009 Bundesliga Bundesliga, the highlight of the fifth round of the tournament with Borussia Dortmund away to Hoffenheim. Now the game has begun. Hoffenheim in the blue jersey attacking from left to right, while Dortmund attacking from right to left in the yellow and black jersey. In this game, my country's player Chu Zhongtian still started the game, and he now got the ball...... "The game has just started, and the CCTV commentator has not had time to introduce the list of appearances to everyone, Chu Zhongtian has already received a return pass from Ibisevic.

After Chu Zhongtian got the ball, he didn't pass the ball directly forward, although Hoffenheim's football style is to pass back and cross as little as possible, and pass the ball forward desperately. However, Rangnick also gave Chu Zhongtian absolute tactical freedom on the field, and he could decide for himself what to do next, so it didn't matter if he passed back to the cross bed. When Hoffenheim was in the second division last season, Rangnick forbade players to pass the ball back and horizontally, believing that most of such passes were unnecessary and would only make the players slack, so he had to use rules to force the players to do so.

But this season is different, because there is one more Chu Zhongtian in the team. Rangnick believes in Chu Zhongtian's understanding of football and judgment of the game situation. So there are no restrictions on him, everything is free for him to play. He is not worried that Chu Zhongtian will slow down the offensive rhythm of the whole team because of frequent return passes and horizontal passes, so that the team will miss a good opportunity to score.

For Chu Zhongtian, Rangnick trusted him so much that he didn't even arrange a specific location. The formation that was discharged for outsiders to show Chu Zhongtian was the back midfielder, but his teammates all knew that Chu Zhongtian was the most special person in the team, he had no specific position at all, left, middle, right, front, back, middle, as long as he felt necessary, he could move freely. At the back he can keep in touch with the back line and defend solidly. Up front, he can maintain a tight formation with the likes of Salihovic, Eduardo and Ibisevic to press the opposition's defence.

In terms of specific tactical requirements, Rangnick rarely talked to Chu Zhongtian. He would only tell Chu Zhongtian a general idea of himself before the game, and then Chu Zhongtian would be responsible for showing all the details in the game.

After four rounds of league games and several warm-up matches, Chu Zhongtian is now much better than when he first came to understand Rangnick's tactical requirements, and the cooperation between the two is becoming more and more tacit, which is reflected in the fact that in the last round they pressed the Stuttgart team to bombard indiscriminately, almost making Stuttgart, a strong team in Baden-Forten, planted in the gutter.

After Chu Zhongtian took the ball, he observed the situation, turned around and passed the football back. The ball was passed three times by the defenders before returning to his feet. At this time, the three-line formation of Dortmund, which was originally very tightly compressed, had been torn apart, and they rushed up in a swarm, wanting to "keep the pressure on Hoffenheim and not let them turn over", as manager Klopp said.

Seeing this, Chu Zhongtian passed the football to the defender Baker who was inserted on the side. I also ran forward.

Baker and Weiss made a one-two on the flanks and continued to break forward. Just when everyone thought he would cross from a 45-degree angle, he suddenly swept the ball sideways to the middle of the edge of the penalty area.

Chu Zhongtian did not hesitate after receiving the ball, but shot directly with his feet!

The football was hit by the instep of his right foot, and it flew towards the goal with a bang!

Football is like a cannonball, from Borussia Dortmund's centre-back Felipe Murphy. Santana (felipe_santana) was whistling in his ears, and the Brazilian even felt a little pain in his ears from the wind.

Goalkeeper Weidenfeller (roman_weidenfeller) watched the ball fly towards him, but he didn't have time to make a concrete save, just reflexively raised his hand.

Then he felt a pain in his wrist and the ball made contact with his hand...... In his sight, the football hit his raised hand and then jumped high, over the crossbar and onto the billboard behind him.

"Chu's shot! Powerful! It's a pity that it's too positive......"

Chu Zhongtian unexpectedly shot from a distance, so that Weidenfeller didn't even react, but it's a pity...... But this long-range shot was beautiful! ”

The German and Chinese commentators both coincidentally gave praise to Chu Zhongtian.

Weidenfeller held the wrist hit by the football with one hand and looked at Chu Zhongtian.

This kid shoots with great power...... It seems that I need to pay more attention in the game.

Then he turned his head and shouted, "Corner!" Watch defensive!! ”

Chu Zhongtian withdrew his gaze from Wei Dengfeller, and slowly walked into the forbidden area, where he was ready to fight for the top.

The long-range shot was not meant to make Weidenfeller pay more attention to himself, as it was not a warning. Rather, it was the Charge, telling his teammates that the general assault had begun!
