Hoffenheim played fiercely in the second half of the first half, after all, it was their home turf.

But today Lady Luck did not favor Hoffenheim at all, neither Demba Ba, nor Weiss or Eduardo, but none of them could score with their shots.

As for Sanogo, who was pinned on by Rangnick, his performance in this match can be said to be a big disappointment for fans.

He wanted to make a difference, but the more he frantically he was, the more he made mistakes, and in the end, he was turned into a football black hole by the Leverkusen players – as long as his teammates put the ball at his feet, there was basically no possibility of passing it back.

"Hey!" There were bursts of regret from the fans on the sidelines, and on the field, an anti-aircraft gun was flying in the air.

Sanogo single-handedly dribbled the ball into the siege of Bayer Leverkusen, and finally forced his feet, naturally hitting the anti-aircraft gun.

Rangnick's brows on the sidelines were about to tie knots, and he sighed in his heart: "Sure enough, you can't train him as the main force!" ”

Sanogo is a substitute and a surprise player to be the X-factor on the field, but his single, easy-to-target approach to offense is doomed to not be the team's starter.

"Marić, you let Obassi warm up!" Rangnick finally made up his mind to bring on Obasi at the start of the second half.

Now that the first half is almost over, Rangnick still wants to save some face for the players, and he can't blow Sanogo's confidence away.

But at this moment, after being suppressed for more than twenty minutes, Leverkusen came out.

This time it was the tacit cooperation of Barnetta and Helmers on the left, first Kiessling received the ball and burst forward, attracting Beta's defense, and then Kiessling passed the ball to Bannetta.

Barnetta calmly passed the ball to Jaisler and Nelsson before Jaisler and Nelsson closed the doors!

Baker catches up with Helmus, who receives the ball, but Beck pounces too hard and is shaken off by a feint from Helmers!

Realizing that something was wrong, Beta immediately shook off Kislin, who was pestering him, and rushed over, but it was too late!

Even if it was a fleeting opportunity, Helmers took it. In the middle of the movement, he braked sharply, and with a slight shake of his right calf, the football turned into a black and white arrow and shot towards the goal!

Hildebrand's eyes widened, he didn't expect Helmers' shot to come so suddenly, but he reacted quickly and immediately fell to the ground to save.

However, Hildebrand was unable to hold the football, and his right hand was touching the football.

It is clear in the camera that the ball twists on his glove, but it still refracts into the goal.

“Oh，my—God！” Beta grabbed her hair helplessly.

Fans still can't imagine that it's almost half-time, Hoffenheim conceded another goal?

Schmeichel was neutral and did not hesitate to shout "Goal" for Bayer Leverkusen's goal.

"This is not wonderful news for Hoffenheim!" Schmeichel said somewhat gloatingly.

Some of the impatient fans couldn't help it, and they let out a shrill boo.

Yes, harsh!

Beta felt panicked when she heard this, the fans didn't just boo their opponents! This is also a boo of dissatisfaction with their performance!

Schmeichel was commenting when he saw Hope, who was sitting with Bayer Leverkusen chairman in the VIP compartment of the stadium in the camera, with a subtle expression.

Subtle, of course!

Before the game, Hope was full of ambition and was looking forward to welcoming a good start in this new home stadium!

Now, Hope listens to the ridicule of Bayer Leverkusen chairman Schad, and he can't hold his face, and he secretly holds a grudge in his heart: "Damn, I let you concentrate on preparing for the Bundesliga game, and you will give me half-heartedness to play this one?" ”

Hope is now so annoyed that he forgot that Hoffenheim sent all the main players in this game (let's think Sanogo is the main force), and there is no intention of slacking off at all! And the Europa League matches haven't started yet, where is the half-hearted statement?

"Hehe, Mr. Hope probably regrets choosing this game as their first game in their new home." Schmeichel said meaningfully, "If Hoffenheim loses, Rangnick will have a hard time!" ”

……

Not long after the game resumed, the referee declared the end of the first half. During half-time, Rangnick announced a change to replace Sanogo.

Sanogo didn't react strongly, and the Ivorian seemed to have a premonition, so he just nodded silently and sat in the corner. He is no longer the shining star of the Bundesliga Player of the Month who was named Player of the Month in the Bundesliga during his time at Kaiserslautern, and he has become accustomed to the taste of the bench after years of moving to teams such as Hamburg and Bremen.

However, Rangnick and other players are also not taking into account Sanogo's feelings now, and Beta, Salihovic and other players sit around Rangnick and listen intently to Rangnick's arrangement.

This game, they all want to win!

"Although we fell behind 1:3 in the first half, it was only a gap of two goals, don't be afraid, believe in your own strength, let's chase the score back and take back the victory!" Rangnick never utters something exciting, but his encouragement always fills the players with strength.

War!

……

At the start of the second half, Hoffenheim, who had the ball, took the lead and tried to beat Bayer Leverkusen to gain a firm foothold and dominate the half.

However, to Hoffenheim's surprise, Obasi, who had just been substituted, made a mistake when he was tackled by Bayer Leverkusen left-back Mike Kadleć.

Cadridge saw that Obasi's ball seemed to be too strong, so he decisively kicked down, and Obasi didn't expect the other party to be so bold, he actually dared to tackle the ball in the penalty area, and he was stunned for a while, thus losing the ball!

"Not good!" Beta, who was not far from the front of the penalty area, had his heart beat, and he hurriedly turned around and ran wildly.

Enrique defended Kadlic's break, and then he shook off Obasi's counter-attack and sent the ball to midfielder Bannetta's feet with a long pass!

Barnetta ran wildly on the wing, and in an instant, the passive defense of Bayer Leverkusen became the attacker, and their offensive speed far exceeded the speed of Hoffenheim's defense!

Beta resolutely turned and chased after Banetta, but fortunately, he started early and intercepted Banetta near the corner of the box.

Bannetta had no intention of struggling with Beta, as he glanced up at the box and prepared to pass the ball in.

There's Helmers and Kiessling who have already been killed!

Saying that it was too late, Beta, who was calm and saw clearly, suddenly raised his right leg and intercepted Baneta's pass.

"Smack"!

Bannetta's pass was blocked by Beta, but the angle was not well blocked and the ball was still high off the line.
