"Alright, now the players are lined up!"

Led by the referee, the players walked out into the middle of the field.

The 50,076-capacity stadium is packed to capacity, and despite the home team's poor results, the team's fans still have a strong love and support for the team, just as they did when it was relegated three times before and then promoted three times.

With a solemn stadium and enthusiastic fans, this away game made Sun Xiang full of expectations.

"Dear fans and friends waiting in front of the TV, in the 17th round of the Bundesliga, Cologne will play Wolfsburg at home!"

"It is worth noting that Sun Xiang appeared in the away list for the first time, can he have any outstanding performance in the first game of this game?"

After the pre-match ceremony, the players stood in formation on the pitch.

The referee blows the whistle and the game begins!

"The 2017-18 season, the relegation battle for the 17th round of the Bundesliga now begins! The first to serve was the away team Wolfsburg, who ......were wearing traditional green jerseys and attacking from left to right in the screen," host He Wei introduced.

From the very beginning of the game, both sides did not reserve, and the atmosphere of the game was even more enjoyable for the fans.

In the first 30 minutes of the first half, both sides had a great chance each.

First of all, Cologne's penalty area was the first to attack.

In the 19th minute of the game, Wolfsburg found a good opportunity on the left side of the penalty area.

Malle picked up the ball on the wing, shook off the opposing players who came up to defend and knocked back to the middle, and the ball came to Sun Xiang's feet. The latter stuffed the ball straight into the box without stopping, just past the two defenders.

Hinds faced the attacking goalkeeper and tried to push the far corner, but unfortunately he did not stand on his feet, and the ball was inaccurate and went directly over the crossbar.

Then in the 30th minute, Cologne had a very good chance to score.

Captain Lehmann's long-range shot flew off the Wolfsburg player and Cologne won a corner.

Ritser came to take the penalty and Guirassi grabbed the header from position, but the angle was too good for Castles to get his hands on. The Ligue 1 graduate has scored twice in his first few games of the season, which is good for a 96-year-old youngster, who has previously expressed their affection for Gillassie.

"The process of the game is getting more and more intense, although it is not yet the critical moment of relegation, but the standings in the points still make the two teams fight. I wonder if Wolfsburg can win a crucial victory on the Rhine this time? ”

I don't know if the director heard what the host said, the camera immediately focused on Sun Xiang on the field, and Sun Xiang at this time was looking for space back and forth in the middle of the road.

"Sun, can he continue to fight for the team today?" Tony looked at the number 28 running around the pitch and couldn't help but ask.

In a bar in Wolfsburg, people in green jerseys sit at the bar and tables in groups and drink Germany's stouts.

This is the Wolfsburg fan base, and when the team is playing away games, some fans who can't travel with the team come here to watch the game together and create a small home atmosphere.

In the centre of the bar is an LCD TV showing the match between Cologne and Wolfsburg.

In the 40th minute, Sun Xiang took the ball and was brought down by a Cologne defender, and the referee gave the latter a yellow card.

This also made the Wolfsburg players very dissatisfied, and captain Camacho came up to question the referee, but the referee ignored him.

"Boom!"

A middle-aged man with a big belly slammed the wooden table with a beer glass in an angry manner.

"Damn the referee, the eyes let the dog eat? This ball is clearly a foul! "He was also unhappy with the referee's decision.

Through slow motion, it was shown that the Cologne defender's tackle was indeed worthy of a red card.

Sun Xiang received a pass from Alexander-Arnold and took the ball with his back, and behind him was Cologne defender Sorensen. The tall Danish centre-back put a lot of pressure on Sun Xiang as soon as he came up.

After Sun Xiang suffered a lot of losses from him again, this time he also gave up his plan to fight him. With a slight heel knock and a light turn, Sun Xiang at 185 is certainly a lot more agile than Sorensen at 193.

The heel is worn through the crotch!

Sorensen went straight down the tackle, his tall body turning too slowly, and it was just past the perfect time to tackle.

This shovel went directly to Sun Xiang's feet.

After getting up, he tried his best to explain to the referee that he really rushed to the ball. Because he knew it would be a red card if it was strictly speaking.

Fortunately, the referee opened the net, but it was only a yellow card warning.

"Did you see, this dog thing is going for Sun, he must be trying to destroy him!"

The big belly drank all the remaining beers in one go, then put the empty glass on the bar, "Mr. Wall, have another drink!" ”

"Mark, you've already drunk 7 glasses, be careful that no one can lift you if you get drunk for a while!" As she spoke, Mr. Wall filled Mark with a large glass of dark beer.

The owner of the bar is Keith Wall, a former Wolfsburg player who also had a certain place in the hearts of Wolfsburg fans at the time, and later opened the bar after retiring from the game, and it is open to fans for free every away game.

"I said Mr. Wall, what do you think of Sun, I mean do you think Sun really wants to be the flag of Wolfsburg as the media says?" Mark asked drunkenly after taking a long sip of his wine.

"Sun, that's a good kid, but who knows what the future holds?"

Wall took a puff of a German cigar as the smoke rose, and he looked at the young man on the TV gritting his teeth and rubbing his ankles, as if he saw his past......

.....................................................................

“Sun！ You okay! ”

After the foul, Sorensen ran to Sun Xiang's side and asked, he himself knew that the action just now was too big.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm fine." Sun Xiang smiled reluctantly and patted Sorensen on the shoulder with his hand.

Fortunately, it was a hard injury, but if it hurt the ligament, it would be troublesome.

After receiving some emergency treatment on the sidelines, Sun Xiang returned to the court.

When Sun Xiang was being treated on the sidelines, Wolfsburg's set-piece had already been opened, but unfortunately it did not pose any threat to the Cologne goal.

“Sun！ Take the ball and shoot long when you have a chance! Talk to Camacho and Malle too! The head coach said to Sun Xiang.

The latter made an OK gesture and then relayed the manager's intentions to the other two.

A long-range shot is indeed a key to victory, just like this game.

Two minutes later, Wolfsburg changed the scoreline, and the goal happened to be scored from a long shot.
