Ibisevic's goal was a blow to Bayern Munich, they didn't expect Hoffenheim to score in such a situation, and what they didn't expect was Chu Zhongtian's 360-degree turn. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Despite the immediate reaction, Timoshchuk did not stop it. He had boasted in front of Schweinsteiger before, saying that he would definitely be able to prevent Chu Zhongtian. What now? He just wants not to be ridiculed by his teammates.

The cheers of the Hoffenheim fans in the stands resounded in the air. Bayern Munich's fans were silent.

"It looks like Hoffenheim is really Bayern Munich's nemesis! Look at their football, it makes Bayern Munich very uncomfortable! ”

"Chu once again showed his masterful passing skills and insight! And the whole Hoffenheim team is also very much in tune with his thinking. Rangnick is said to have been training his team to do this all summer, and that's what they did! ”

"I don't think there is any opponent in the whole Bundesliga! Chu is now the number one midfield playmaker in the Bundesliga! ”

It is the routine work of the commentators to praise Chu Zhongtian, because almost every goal of Hoffenheim is directly and indirectly related to him.

When Ibyshevic celebrated the goal, the first thing he looked for was Kolarov, who passed the ball to him, and then the two of them ran to Chu Zhongtian, both of them knew that without Chu Zhongtian, this goal opportunity would not have been created at all.

A group of new players on the bench saw Hoffenheim's football in action, not in an inconsequential friendly but for the only honour in the German Super Cup.

That's exactly what Rangnick did to put them on the bench, hoping that they would be able to look at Hoffenheim's football from the perspective of a spectator and make them understand that this is the football they played. That way they know how to play with their team-mates on the pitch instead of continuing to play as they are used to.

Coming to Hoffenheim is like learning to play again.

They have to be faster, not only to run fast, but also to think fast. Always run one step more than your opponent and think one step more, this is Hoffenheim football. Rangnick wants the new players to know that.

※※※When the game resumed, Rangnick, who had established a two-goal lead, began to decide to make substitutions.

Because this is no longer a Super Cup similar to a friendly decided by both sides, there are only three substitutions for each team, and if you don't want last season's Super Cup, you can change six players each.

Rangnick first replaced Weiss with Quaresma.

Quaresma ran onto the pitch and high-fived Chu Zhongtian, who was closest to him. This is Chu Zhongtian who took the initiative to come over and stretch out his hand to let him shoot, which also reflects an attitude, hoping that he can integrate into the team. After all, Chu Zhongtian is his guide.

As soon as he came on the field, Chu Zhongtian passed the football to Quaresma, and it could be seen that he was indeed taking care of his new teammate.

Quaresma, however, was still a little uncomfortable with Hoffenheim's football, and instead of passing it directly to Obasi, who was running to pick him up, he chose to dribble the ball himself, only to be cut off by Contento.

"Quaresma is clearly not keeping up with Hoffenheim's pace!"

"Is it not enough to warm up with garlic under his feet?"

"If it's Weiss, the ball goes to Obasi, then Hoffenheim is another dangerous shot!"

The commentators began to criticize. They have to praise Chu Zhongtian vigorously, and they have to criticize Quaresma, a player who has been questioned. Because you say he's playing well, maybe in a month, he'll slap you in the face with a sustained slump.

Anyway, no one is optimistic about Quaresma's prospects at Hoffenheim.

Quaresma, who had conceded the ball, was also frustrated, and he desperately chased back to participate in the defense. He knows that when he arrives in a new team, he needs to perform well, and if he can't attack, he has to defend. At Inter he didn't like to defend but now it's different, and he knows exactly what it means to his career at Hoffenheim. This is his last chance.

His defense wasn't very effective, after all, he wasn't the kind of person who could defend. Bayern Munich finally had a shot on goal and the ball grazed the post and flew off the line. The Hoffenheim fans in the stands broke out in a cold sweat.

When Hoffenheim re-attacked, despite the fact that there were two Bayern Munich players between him and Quaresma, Chu Zhongtian still chose to pass the football over.

The ball went over the heads of the Bayern Munich players and fell to the side. Quaresma was ill-prepared and barely stopped the ball, but lost the best chance to break through and was blocked by Contento. This time Quaresma didn't dribble the ball himself, but quickly split the ball away and avoided losing possession at his feet again.

The commentators shook their heads when they saw Quaresma's performance twice in a row: "What a new signing!" Quaresma couldn't match the rest of Hoffenheim's players at first glance, and their FM didn't match. Chu's pass was exquisite, but Quaresma didn't expect it at all. Maybe he thought there was an opponent's player in the middle, so Chu wouldn't pass the ball to him? But he needs to know that Chu's improvisation is part of Hoffenheim football, and he has to be aware of this and remind himself of it at all times and at all times during the game! ”

Bayern Munich won a corner, but their corner was played by goalkeeper Enyema, and then Sana and Thomas were on the way. Muller defeated the German national team star in the aerial battle, and he headed the ball back to ferry the football to Chu Zhongtian.

After Chu Zhongtian received the ball, he strode forward with the ball. It's Hoffenheim's favorite scene, and it's what they do best – fast attack! All the Hoffenheim players involved in the attack rushed forward desperately to create opportunities for Chu Zhongtian's pass.

Chu Zhongtian has several passing points to choose from, such as Salihovic on the left wing, Ibisevic in the middle, and Obasi on the ribs. But he ended up passing the football to Quaresma!

It was the third time in a row that he had given football to the disappointing Portuguese player.

Quaresma was very well prepared this time, he ran forward with all his might, and just happened to receive the ball from Chu Zhongtian. In the face of Contento, who retreated in a hurry, he made a gesture with his right foot to the outside, deceived the opponent to shift the center of gravity outward, and then slammed the ball to the middle with his right foot, so he easily passed the opponent!

"Oh! Pretty! ”

Now Quaresma has a lot of space in front of him, Bayern Munich's defenders are only Demichelis and Lahm, and Tymoshchuk are in retreat, and they are pressed behind by Ibisevic and Obasi, because they are afraid that Quaresma will pass the ball to these two forwards, and they dare not come up and force Quaresma.

This gave him the opportunity to rush straight into the ribs with the football.

Seeing that he was about to burst into the penalty area, Bayern's players had to come and surround him, and at this time he passed the ball!

The football fell to Chu Zhongtian's feet, and Chu Zhongtian shot directly without stopping!

The soccer ball is slightly higher.

Although he didn't score, it is a fact that Quaresma was better than before.

But the commentators were still very stingy with Quaresma's excellent performance and refused to praise him. They were obviously frightened by Quaresma's "drive high and go low" style.

※※※Chu Zhongtian, who completed a shot, extended a thumbs up to Quaresma and thanked him for his pass.

Rangnick then made a second substitution, replacing Baker with Srna and continuing to strengthen his attack on the right.

In the 78th minute of the game, Bayern Munich finally relied on an assist from Franck Ribery to score a goal through Klose. After this goal, Ribery was also replaced, and Van Gaal considered that he had just recovered from injury, and it could even be said that he was not good enough, and he was afraid that he would be injured again, so he replaced him. But he obviously didn't want to go off early, at this time Bayern had just recovered a goal, it was the time for a big counterattack, how could he miss such an important moment?

Ribery, who walked off the field, looked a little unsightly.

Rangnick then replaced Salihovic with Hlosek to rest him while continuing to keep the pressure on Bayern Munich's backline.

Both sides had chances to score in the final ten minutes of the game, but neither found the back of the net.

When the referee blew the full-time whistle, Hoffenheim won 2-1 as they beat arch-rivals Bayern Munich in the German Super Cup!

"Congratulations Hoffenheim! They won the first German Super Cup in the club's history! ”

"It was a really good game! Hoffenheim's Chu is radiant! He once again led the team to the last laugh in the competition with Bayern Munich! It seems that the name 'Bayern nemesis' will continue to be used by Hoffenheim! ”

Amid cheers, the Hoffenheim players celebrated their victory on the pitch. Even though it's just a Super Cup, it's a championship anyway. A championship is the perfect start to a new season!

"This is Hoffenheim's second trophy since promotion to the Bundesliga, and this small team from the countryside is growing at the pace of the Rockets. In the Bundesliga, they let Bayern Munich know that this is not their backyard. In the European arena, they also made the whole of Europe know them with two wonderful games! ”

"The new season of Hoffenheim is very much to look forward to! I'm not saying that because they won the Super Cup, I'm sure everyone who watched this game will think that - this is an emerging force with a lot of energy, speed and power, their football fascinates us, I love this kind of game, I love their football! ”

The commentators gave their opinions on the game, and poor Bayern Munich once again became a foil in the battle with Hoffenheim. For the Bundesliga bosses, this experience is not very common.

Van Gaal stood on the sidelines, his face pale. He didn't care about losing the Super Cup, it was just a chicken game, nowhere near the league and the Champions League. What makes him unhappy is that the team has no upper hand in a team like Hoffenheim! And his dislike for Hoffenheim as a team, he didn't want his team to lose to them.

Rangnick walked up and held out his hand to him. Although it wasn't very cool, basic politeness was still necessary, and Van Gaal shook Rangnick's hand before turning and leaving the pitch.

Rangnick, on the other hand, joined the players in the revelry celebration with his arms raised.

The German Super Cup may not be taken lightly by some teams and used as a warm-up match like training. But for the young Hoffenheim, they are hungry for any humble title. This team is not one of those big teams, their past is blank, their future is blank, they are hungry for glory. It's this hunger that makes Rangnick willing to lead a country team around the city.

Because he knows that with this desire to win** and the pursuit of championships, anything is possible.

When Chu Zhongtian, as the captain, took over the rebuilt Super Cup from the hands of Zwan Ziger, the president of the German Football Association, on behalf of the whole team, the blue and white bright color bar representing Hoffenheim was sprinkled over the pulse arena in Augsburg.

Hoffenheim's new season, Chu Zhongtian's third season in the Bundesliga, kicked off with a championship.

※※※ A lot has happened in world football this summer, and the turnover of players is very frequent. But none of this has much to do with Hoffenheim in the small city of Sinsheim.

Winning the German Super Cup is a cause for joy, but Rangnick is asking the team to quickly forget about the title, because the real test is the long season ahead.

This season, Rangnick's goal for the team is basically the same as what Chu Zhongtian said - on the premise of ensuring that he can participate in the Champions League next season, he will strive to move forward in the Champions League, and go as far as possible, until he can't walk anymore.

The team's squad has stabilized early, and there will be no more reinforcements and no sales. Hoffenheim's performances in this transfer window show that they are indeed working towards that goal. A team that is still moving in and out frequently until the end of the transfer period is full at the start.

Hoffenheim have an early squad that frees up plenty of time to train their squad on new tactics, especially those who have just joined the team.

Rangnick doesn't plan to get them a start right from the start, and it will be up to them to adapt to the team's new tactics in training. Only Nyema is an exception, because the goalkeeper position does not require much tactical adaptation, and there is no one else who can be the main goalkeeper except him. Haas, despite his occasional performances, has been inconsistent and the goalkeeper's most fatal flaw is his lack of consistency.

The first round of the league season will be played on 20 August, with Bayern Munich hosting Wolfsburg in the opener. The match in Hoffenheim took place on the afternoon of August 21, the following day, and their first round opponent was Werder Bremen, known as their nemesis...... There is still a German Cup game to be played before that, and this game Rangnick decided to give the new players a chance to play with the substitutes and give them the feeling of the game.

He is still aiming for the first round of the league against Werder Bremen.

Since being promoted to the Bundesliga, Hoffenheim have won the league, won the Super Cup and swept almost every opponent – except for Werder Bremen.

Werder Bremen is the nemesis of Hoffenheim in the truest sense of the word. In the 08-09 season, Hoffenheim was in the limelight at the beginning, defeating Bundesliga regulars Ketbus 3-0 in the first round of the league, which surprised the whole of Germany and called it an upset. Hoffenheim lost 4:5 to Werder Bremen at home. Hoffenheim was brave in that game, the score speaks for itself, but a loss is a loss. Since that game, Hoffenheim have only been able to lose any time they have ever met Werder Bremen, not even a draw. 4:5 home loss, 0:2 away loss, in the League Cup also lost to Bremen, the following 09-10 season, in the pre-season Super Cup, Hoffenheim lost 1:3 at home to Bremen, lost the first German Super Cup, Hoffenheim and Bremen in the league two legs were 1:2 and 0:1 respectively.

It's a really puzzling thing. With Hoffenheim's strength, it will not be so unbearable to face Bremen. They can beat Bayern Munich many times, but Werder Bremen can't do that. They can also beat the likes of Manchester United and Inter Milan in the Champions League, but Bremen's Champions League journey has always been tragic.

Is it really as the media said, in the face of Werder Bremen, the whole Hoffenheim team has a psychological shadow?

※※※ "It's ridiculous, we don't have any psychological shadows. Chu Zhongtian said in an interview with Chinese media.

The league has not even started, and the attention about the first round of Hoffenheim has already begun. This match has a gimmick because of Bremen's title of "Hoffenheim's nemesis".

"Then why did the past record ......"

"Football is such a strange thing, sometimes you try your best and you don't necessarily win, sometimes you don't perform as well as the other team, and you are the one who has the last laugh. I think it's just a coincidence and doesn't say anything. Chu Zhongtian replied with such words, of course, he couldn't satisfy the reporters.

'Now you're in perfect shape, can you score against Werder Bremen?' They asked.

Chu Zhongtian shrugged: "Who knows this?" I cannot tell the prophets. Besides, it doesn't matter if I score or not, it's important if the team wins......"

After answering the question, he gestured to the reporters, left the training ground and returned to the locker room.

Everyone in the dressing room was talking about Werder Bremen. Although Chu Zhongtian claimed that the team did not have psychological problems, it was an indisputable fact that everyone cared about this opponent. Everyone was puzzled as to why they always lost to Werder Bremen, and no one could explain why. In the end, I really felt that maybe Bremen was really their nemesis, just like they were always very energetic against Bayern Munich, so the winning rate was better. Bremen's players may also be tough against them.

Some people think that it is the reason for tactical restraint, but he can't say what kind of restraint method is.

As for the psychological shadows? Everyone disagrees, or rather admits it.

Chu Zhongtian didn't participate in their discussion, he took a shower, changed his clothes, said goodbye to everyone and left.

He was quite busy this night. Mathilde called to tell him that he had been invited to a television show, which was an interview show. Chu Zhongtian is used to attending such shows, and as he became famous in German football, there were more and more announcements inviting him to participate in various programs, and his face often appeared on the TV screens of German audiences.

Chu Zhongtian knew that he would definitely be asked questions about Bremen tonight, who made this team a pain in their hearts?

Now that we've won a Super Cup and made a good start to the new season, what reason is there to allow this scar to continue?

Chu Zhongtian decided to defeat Werder Bremen in the first round of the league at all costs, erasing this old injury and new pain for everyone in Hoffenheim. Let Hoffenheim throw off all the baggage of the past and travel light.
