In the 25th round of the Bundesliga, the match between Wolfsburg and Bayer Leverkusen was played at the Volkswagen Arena. Because the German Cup match two days later will face the strong rival Schalke 04, Schmidt did not send the main force on the field this time.

Sun Xiang, Arnold, Kuba and others were all on the bench. Hinds, Mobius, Di Mata and others all played.

CCTV got the broadcast rights for this game and the next Copa del Rey quarterfinals, and the host He Wei told the national audience about the starters.

After learning that Sun Xiang was not in the starting line-up, some fans who watched the play joked that Wolfsburg would not win until Sun Xiang came on the field.

I don't know if it was unintentional, but the live broadcast camera swept to Sun Xiang who was on the bench.

Energetic, he didn't seem to be unhappy because of the rotation, and he chatted with Brooks beside him one by one.

"It seems that Sun Xiang is in a good mood and hopes that Wolfsburg can win the game without Sun Xiang on the field." I don't know why, I feel like I was infected by Sun Xiang, seeing that he is in such a good mood, I have become very good.

"Bayer Leverkusen's midfielder Brandt's yellow card suspension doesn't know if it will take a hit to his team. You must know that since last season, Brandt, who is only 20 years old, has been the main player of the team. The talented midfielder of the future is on his way to the top of his game. Had it not been for the yellow card for his tackle against Schalke in the previous round, he could have continued his form in this game. ”

And the most interesting thing is that Brandt moved to Bayer Leverkusen at the start of 2014 and played in both the senior and amateur teams in the same year. And it was Wolfsburg that sent him here. They gave away their youth products and did not expect to become Germany's star of hope after three years. How much they must regret it. He Wei said that he couldn't help but regret what Wolfsburg did at that time, and four years later, they sold Sun Xiang in the same way.

Even if Sun Xiang is not from his own youth training, this kind of behavior of forgetting profit and righteousness is still not enough to make people worry.

'It's a bit of nonsense, let's watch the game, now the players from both sides have walked in. In the 25th round of the 2017-18 German Football League, Wolfsburg faced the visiting Bayer Leverkusen at the Volkswagen Arena at home.

The game is about to start and Origi is ready to kick off in the centre circle.

"Kill them!"

"Come on Wolfsburg!"

Fans cheered on their team.

"It's going to be forced at the beginning! Grab the start! Bayer Leverkusen's head coach Heilrich shouted at his players.

Away from home, it's important to get off to a good start. But it also requires taking risks, because it is very physically demanding.

Just like the current Dortmund and Leverkusen during the Schmidt period, they are mainly based on high pressing, which requires a lot of physical fitness from players.

If you can't grab it, you will continue to grab it; Grab it, and attack directly.

No one can do it 100 percent, but Heilrich has that confidence.

Sun Xiang didn't play, this is an opportunity!

He deliberately looked at Wolfsburg's performance when Sun Xiang was not on the field, which can be described as chaotic, just like last season's thrilling relegation, their midfield was never as sharp as when Sun Xiang was there.

Sun Xiang is like a whetstone, with him, Wolfsburg's attack will be extremely sharp.

Now that Sun Xiang is away, he believes his team will be able to do a better job of pressing tactics.

Sure enough, substitute Wolfsburg were clearly afraid of this tactic, and the frequent mistakes in the central midfield and the pressure at the back also worried about whether the young backline would be defeated under such pressure from Leverkusen.

Finally, their fears became a reality.

In the 29th minute of the game, Wolfsburg's pass in the backfield was wrong again, Lemar's pass was too light and was cut off by the full-back Resos, who attacked directly along the right side, and crossed directly after passing the grabbing Gerhardt, although the ball was cleared by Tiseran for the first time, but then the second penalty Wolfsburg lost again, Russ Bender directly met the ball and volleyed, the ball passed through the penalty area There was an obvious change of line, and Castles could not react to watch the football enter the goal.

1:0, Bayer Leverkusen took the lead away from home.

Russ Bender was thrilled after the goal, his second goal in recent season, and the first goal also happened to come at home to Wolfsburg. He ran to the stands of the away fans and interacted with the fans who had come from afar.

Finally, the referee signaled them to watch the time, and the celebration ended.

The Wolfsburg fans booed, unhappy with what the Leverkusen players were doing.

"In 29 minutes, 1:0 down, although it was a substitute lineup, but we couldn't see anything that could be called a match, we couldn't help but fall behind the score, and the scene was also down. I don't know what Schmidt thinks at this time. Will he send Sun Xiang? ”

But then he denied it himself. With just half an hour into the game, there should be no substitutions, unless they are forced to make substitutions due to injury.

In the case of substitutions in half an hour, the most occurring is still in the field of the Chinese Super League. After the introduction of the U23 policy, each team had to contribute a valuable starting spot. Some teams have replaced young players in the first 10 minutes or so in order to cope, which will undoubtedly be a big blow to the self-confidence of young players.

After Sun Xiang became famous in the Bundesliga, some experts called on China to start a 10-year plan similar to Germany's.

In 2000, Germany was eliminated in the group stage of the European Championship, which made the Germans realize that there was a "talent crisis" and "technical bottleneck" in German football. Thus, a decade-long "Discover Young Talent" program began.

The initial lack of success, and the failure to qualify for the knockout rounds of Euro 2004 made the German people question the implementation of the plan.

But fortunately, the appearance of players such as Anoer, Mertesacker, Ozil, Gomez, and Lahm has awakened this former football hegemon.

After finishing third at the 2010 World Cup, they will reach their fourth Hercules Cup in their first World Cup after 10 years of planning.

They now have an impressive record in all major international competitions, with Germany scoring 43 goals and conceding just four goals in 10 World Cup qualifiers in the 2018 World Cup qualifiers, making them one of the favourites.

And China also released a copy not long ago, which began with the "Chinese Football Five-Year Plan for the Future".

In the copy, the Football Association will target the top four in the 2019 Asian Cup and the 2022 Qatar World Cup, and introduce some new policies on the Chinese Super League. Youthfulness may become the future label of the national football team.

And Sun Xiang will definitely become an important member of the national football team in the future plan.
