While the Hoffenheim players cheered for the prize money in the dressing room, Schalke 04 manager Rüten (fred_rutten) was instilling in his players the trick to deal with Hoffenheim - "You have to be ferocious!" To disrupt their attacking rhythm with their attack, to force them to slow down and press harder, they will have a lot of mistakes in their passing coordination, and our job is to take advantage of those mistakes......"

Overall, Schalke 04 did not intend to spare Hoffenheim in this game, and Rüten's instructions to the team were to use rough moves to disrupt Hoffenheim's fluid attack. The best thing this team is at attacking www.biquge.info, and once their offense doesn't work, the young Hoffenheim will become impatient, and their already weak defense will have problems, there will be a lot of holes, and then it will be Schalke's chance.

"They want to win the winter championship? Then we have to ask if we agree! ”

The 26,000-seat Karl-Benz Arena was packed today, and Hoffenheim fans came to say goodbye to the stadium. Before the start of the season, Hoffenheim, who had just been promoted to the first division, were promoted to the first division because of their original home stadium Dietma. The Hope Arena was too small to accommodate 5,000 people, and there was no way to expand it to meet the requirements of the German league committee, so the Karl Benz Stadium was temporarily leased. In this strange stadium, they have created a miracle that has impressed the whole world, in this stadium, they are unbeaten with seven wins and one draw, in this stadium they have 35 league points, in this stadium they have become the first in the league, in this stadium they will become the winter champions!

If it weren't for the fact that the stadium could only accommodate 26,000 people, I am afraid that there would be many more.

Fans sang loudly in the stands as a way to warm up on this somewhat chilly winter night.

On the pitch, the captains of both sides had already picked the side, and Schalke 04 won the tee-off.

After all 11 players from both teams were on their feet, Gagelman blew the whistle for the start of the game, and the final match of the 2008 German Bundesliga began!

Perhaps influenced by the prize money and the new goal of winning the title, Hoffenheim did not behave normally after the start of the game, they did not show the kind of indomitable momentum that has been a tradition for Hoffenheim for the past half season, they launched a fierce attack from the first minute of the game, attacking the opponent's goal, and few teams can withstand such an attack.

But today Hoffenheim did not show such momentum.

However, Schalke 04 offensive is very strong. Just three minutes into the game, they had a great chance. Peruvian midfielder Farfan (jefferson_farfan) crosses from the right flank. Altentop (halil_altintop) nodded in front of the ball and the unmarked Asamoah (gerald_asamoah) faced Daniel in the left corner of the six-yard box. Haas volleyed hard, but he sent the ball away.

Six minutes later, Khalil. Altentop won the ball in the box and turned away from Camper's defence before shooting, this time by Daniel. Haas pounced.

The home team was on the back foot, not even shooting with their feet, and Effenberg (stefan_effenberg), the commentator in charge of the game, couldn't help but understand: "I thought I would see a high-spirited Hoffenheim...... There's no reason why they shouldn't be doing well in this game: it's their last game at the Karl Benz Arena, where they are unbeaten with seven wins and one draw, and Bayern have just won, so the two teams are now level on points, and if Hoffenheim want to win the winter title, they can't afford to lose by at least four goals......

"It looks like the players are affected, you should have announced it after the game, Ralph ......," assistant coach Zeidler said to Rangnick, who was sitting next to him.

"I thought it would motivate the team." Rangnick pushes the glasses on the bridge of his nose, "What do you think of ......"

"If you only talk about money and don't mention champions, I think you can achieve such an effect. It's just that the league title had too much impact on the players, and I don't think they can focus on the game. ”

"No, it shouldn't be that, Peter. We're not a relegation team, we're always going to fight for the title, so if you don't want to play just because you hear that, that's not good. They have to adapt to that – we are a team with quality to compete for the title. ”

Rangnick got up from his chair and walked to the sidelines and shouted into the field: "Salihovic, Weiss!" What are you doing? Too far to the side, shrink a little to the middle! Get in touch with Chu! ”

※※※ Chu Zhongtian really wanted to attack, but he lacked support, and Ibisevic was stared to death by the opponent's defender - the current Ibisevic is too terrifying, scoring 19 goals in 16 rounds of the league, which is completely "God blocks and kills God, and Buddha blocks and kills Buddha". No team dares not to take such a dangerous person to heart.

And Salihovic and Weiss, like Rangnick shouted, were too far away from him, it was very difficult to pass the ball to them, and there was a good chance of being cut off and then playing a counter-attack.

Chu Zhongtian couldn't find a suitable passing object, so he had to shoot from a distance by himself, and in the first ten minutes, he had two long-range shots, which was relatively rare in previous games.

"This Hoffenheim team is out of the ordinary!" Duan Bin, a CCTV commentator, also found it difficult to understand. "Could it be that the Winter Championship is within reach, but it makes them think too much about all the miscellaneous things? Young teams often lack the experience to deal with a variety of situations, and this is particularly evident in Hoffenheim today. ”

Duan Bin is right about one thing, that is, this team does think too much, but not because of the winter champion, a winter champion can't make the team perform abnormally, what makes the team think too much is because of the league championship.

Are we really going to compete with a team like Bayern Munich for the league title?

This is just our first Bundesliga season...... Kaiserslautern did pull off miracles, but Kaiserslautern wasn't a weaker team in the first place...... Well, are we the underdogs?

Nor is it ...... So why did I feel so sudden?

The bonus of 3.5 million yuan, I really feel my heart beat faster when I think about it...... This team is really coming to the right place!

…… All sorts of thoughts were churning in the players' minds, like boiling water. God forbid that they haven't conceded a goal in such a situation...... There are not many players who perform normally, Chu Zhongtian later simply made a long pass in the backfield to find Ibisevic in front, and Ibisevic can be regarded as a member of the normal performance - the person who has won the League Cup, I am afraid that only the Champions League championship can make him abnormal.

Schalke 04 didn't understand what made Hoffenheim behave so badly after the start of the game, because they hadn't started to use the methods that the manager told them to do...... But this is their chance, Hoffenheim, who have been so apaceed, have not appeared once in the first 16 league games, and this first appearance has made them run into it, which is good luck!

Schalke 04 quickly reversed the guest and pressed Hoffenheim to bomb indiscriminately.

By the 18th minute, they had 60 per cent possession, overtaking Hoffenheim.

In the nineteenth minute, Schalke 04's player Ernst (fabian_ernst) tackled Salihovic from the side, the referee's whistle sounded, Schalke 04 fouled, and Hoffenheim won a free kick thirty meters from the goal.

The referee gave Ernst a yellow card, but Ernst didn't apologize at all, which is exactly what the manager asked of them.

Chu Zhongtian ran quickly towards Salikhovich, the Bosnian who was getting up from the ground.

"How does it feel, Sayyad?" Chu Zhongtian leaned up and asked.

Salihovic didn't understand what Chu Zhongtian meant-he was shoveled down by the other party and asked how he felt? Isn't this knowingly asked?

"Are you clearer now?" Chu Zhongtian asked again.

Only then did Salihovic understand why Chu Zhongtian asked this. It turned out to be a joke that his previous performance was too bad...... Chu Zhongtian was about to run away after questioning Salihovic, he didn't plan to listen to Salihovic's answer, this kind of questioning was mainly to remind his teammates, not necessarily to let the other party answer something. As soon as he turned around, he was pulled by Salihovic: "You are here to see if I am awake." He pointed to the spot.

Chu Zhongtian's question stimulated his self-esteem, he wanted to give Schalke 04 a little bit of power, and he also wanted to give Chu Zhongtian a little bit of power.

Chu Zhongtian smiled silently, he really didn't run away, he stood beside Salihovic, waiting to see him take the free kick.

"Chu Zhongtian and Salihovic were both standing in front of the ball...... But there is no suspense about this, it must be Salihovic who is in charge, and Chu Zhongtian is not good at taking free kicks. Maybe there will be some free-kick combination between them? Duan Bin was puzzled.

Without any cooperation, Salihovic's subsequent actions answered Duan Bin. When the referee signaled that he could kick, he ran and kicked the football out, while Chu Zhongtian stood next to him motionless.

The soccer ball goes around the wall and spins towards the bottom right corner of the goal!

Young goalkeeper Manuel Neuer (manuel_neuer) flew to save and flicked the ball out with the tips of his fingers!

"Beautiful!" Duan Bin shouted. "Shoot beautifully, pounce beautifully!"

Seeing that the football was pounced on by Neuer, Salihovic did not hold his head in his hands to express regret, but looked back at Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian gave him a thumbs up: "Beautiful." ”

He ran into the Schalke 04 penalty area and shouted to his teammates who had come to attack: "Hey! Hey! What's wrong with you guys! Throw those messy thoughts aside! ”

※※※ Salihovic's corner kick flew high in front of the goal, Chu Zhongtian jumped up in the crowd, and then shook his head to attack the goal!

The ball was about to fly into the goal past goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, but it was pushed out by Rafinha at the post!

"Ball in...... Ah! Duan Bin couldn't wait to announce that the ball had been scored at first, but before he finished shouting, he saw Raphinha push the ball out, and quickly changed his words. Raphinha's header is crucial! It's a pity that Chu Zhongtian didn't score his fifth goal in the Bundesliga! ”

The Hoffenheim fans let out a sigh from the stands, but they cheered again because the team's attack was not over!

Raphinha's ball fell to Weiss, who dared to pass the ball in front of the Schalke 04 players before they were in a collective offside position, a low ball that could have crashed into the back of the net if it flew in front of goal, no matter who touched it...... Schalke 04's left-back Westermann (heiko_westermann) made a difficult move in front of goal, and he half-turned and kicked the ball out.

But the action was so difficult that it didn't work out well, and instead of kicking it far, Obasi received the ball 14 meters in front of goal, and the Nigerian striker pushed it directly with his left foot, but the ball went over the crossbar...... At this point, Hoffenheim's series of offensives came to an end, and the hearts of Schalke 04 fans could also fall back temporarily.

This series of attacks symbolizes the return of the familiar Hoffenheim!

"Hoffenheim have been attacking a lot during this time, it was just one attack but they played three times, and all three times they threatened the goal and almost scored!"

"This is Hoffenheim, and their attack is suffocating to all opponents. This game is only now on for real! ”

※※※Seeing the team's performance like this, Rangnick, who had been looking outside for ten minutes, finally returned to the coach's box.

The previous Hoffenheim was "** type", and now this Hoffenheim is back to normal.

Hoffenheim, who had returned to normal, began to lay siege to Schalke's goal, and in the 23rd minute, Chu Zhongtian shot from outside the penalty area, and the football was saved by Neuer very beautifully, and the supplementary shot of Ibisevic was deflected wide by Westermann's interference.

Four minutes later, Hoffenheim made a comeback, Chu Zhongtian split the ball to the side in the middle, Weiss crossed from the right, Ibiševich jumped high but did not get the ball, and followed his demba. Ba was interfered with and the ball hit him in the back and bounced towards the goal. But such a soft shot was no threat to Neuer.

In the 30th minute, Hoffenheim's three forwards played together, Obasi passed the ball on the right, Ibisevic did not shoot after receiving the ball, but passed straight to the left side of the penalty area, Demba. Ba burst into the box to receive the ball and met the onrushing Manuel Neuer on the edge of the six-yard box, but the ball went wide of the left post and hit the side-netting...... Schalke 04's head coach Rüten was displeased to see his team at a complete disadvantage in Hoffenheim's stormy attack, and he frequently got up from his seat and then rushed to the sideline and roared.

"Forgot what I said to you before the game!"

He's going to make the team be a little rougher defensively, and he thinks his players have been too civilized during this time.

In the 32nd minute, Salihovic retreated to answer Chu Zhongtian, Chu Zhongtian planned to play a one-two with him, he passed the football over, and then ran forward by himself, without saying anything or making any gestures, this kind of coordination is too common.

Of course, Salihovic understood what Chu Zhongtian wanted to do, so he didn't stop the ball and directly used the outside instep to smooth the ball. But just as he kicked the ball out, he was also brought down from behind by Asamoah.

Asamoah's kick was definitely not for the ball, and although he raised his arms as soon as he was fouled, it didn't change the fact that he deliberately fouled him.

Chu Zhongtian had already received the ball, he looked back and saw Salihovic on the ground, he now had two options - first, continue to attack, because there was already an empty space in front of him. Second, kick the ball out and then put pressure on the referee to play Asamoah.

Chu Zhongtian quickly twisted his head back, and he made the choice to continue attacking.

The referee did not stop the game immediately, because the ball was at Chu Zhongtian's feet, and he stretched out his hands in front of him and made the gesture of "the offense is favorable, the game continues".

Chu Zhongtian ignored Salihovic, who fell to the ground, and continued to attack with the ball. However, the players of Schalke 04 frequently raised their arms and pointed at Salihovic, signaling Chu Zhongtian that he had a teammate fall to the ground, and at this time he should kick the football out and let him receive treatment, instead of continuing to attack with the ball...... After Schalke 04's players made such a reminder, Chu Zhongtian had almost rushed to Schalke 04 back Engal (orlando_engelaar), at this time he slowed down his speed, Engal thought Chu Zhongtian would kick the ball out, and he didn't come up to force it, just pointed to Salihovic behind Chu Zhongtian, signaling Chu Zhongtian that his teammates were still on the ground...... Chu Zhongtian saw that his defense was lax and his surroundings were full of flaws, so he suddenly turned the ball to the side, and then accelerated violently! Just like that, he rushed past the unsuspecting Englaal!

It was only at this time that the players of Schalke 04 realized that Chu Zhongtian did not mean to "carry forward the style" at all, and immediately panicked, and a group of people did not care about their respective positions and who they were targeting, with Chu Zhongtian as the center, they flocked to him! Chu Zhongtian was like a whirlpool in a torrent, sweeping everything on the surface of the river.

Ngral chased from behind, Ernst pounced from his left, Jones (jermaine_jones) on the right, and in front of Chu Zhongtian, central defender Hevedes (benedikt_howedes) and right-back Raphinha were only five or six meters away from him.

He was completely surrounded by the Schalke 04 players, and in the middle of the five Schalke 04 players in white jerseys, the blue figure loomed. Seeing Chu Zhongtian smashing Huanglong with the ball, Hevedez and Raphinha also rushed up.

The encirclement was closing rapidly, Engelal's hand had already grabbed Chu Zhongtian's shoulder, Ernst could hear Chu Zhongtian's breathing, and Jones could also receive the heat emitted by Chu Zhongtian's body...... As long as they stretched their feet, they could make Chu Zhongtian unable to bring the ball, and in fact, they were preparing to do so!

Just when everyone thought that Chu Zhongtian would be cut off by the opponent, the football suddenly burst out from the right side of this encirclement! The football was like a visitor from outside the world, no one thought that Chu Zhongtian would be able to pass the ball out under such circumstances, and it was like a sharp arrow, straight into the opponent's heart!

The ball rolled out between Hwedes and Jones and fell right at the feet of Ibiševic, who ran right behind Hwedes, who was in front of him in an open field and not a man in a defensive position! Another centre-back, Kelstajic (mladen_krstajic), was pinned down by Obasi and was still a little far away...... "Nice pass! Ibisevic received the ball, he dribbled forward and into the box! Neuer strikes...... Ibisevic shoots-"

Chu Zhongtian was still in the encirclement, and all this happened so quickly that the players of Schalke 04 basically had no time to react, only Hevedes had just turned around, and Jones went after Ibisevic. He saw through the crack that Ibisevic calmly stood up in the face of the attacking Neuer, and then the ball drilled between Neuer's two teams, and hit Neuer's calf as it passed, bounced slightly, but it did not change direction, it flew into the goal ...... bouncing into the goal "Ball-in---!!" ”

The Carl Benz Stadium is finally boiling.
