Chapter 65: The Restless Young Man

At the moment when the scrambled eggs with tomatoes made by Zhou Yi's mother were entered, Yan Min desperately suppressed the tears in his eyes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info because he misses home, misses his parents.

In fact, for Yan Min, he thought that homesickness and missing his parents would not happen to him again, but he didn't expect that today, at Zhou Yi's house, he ate a home-cooked meal, and he actually opened the emotional valve.

He left his parents and hometown at a young age and came to Shanghai, where he traveled alone. Although Shanghai has always been the central city, Chongming Island at that time was very barren, and he didn't go anywhere on the island every day except for training, just stayed in the dormitory of the training base.

At first, I was a little homesick for my parents, especially after his friends from other places like him "went home" through the relationship between relatives in Shanghai, and the local children in Shanghai also went home, and the training base was much more deserted. At that time, the loneliness came like a tidal wave, which could drown him.

At this time, he ran out of the dormitory with a football and went to the field to practice dribbling.

He completely immersed himself in the world of football, fantasizing that he was facing all 11 men on the pitch and he had to get past them all, some defenders even once, two or three times before he could finish the ball in the back of the net.

Only by devoting himself so fully to the world he imagined could he forget his loneliness and longing for his parents.

Over time, he became less homesick.

Every year, except for the Spring Festival holiday, he stayed on Chongming Island to train, day after day, year after year.

But he wasn't mechanically trained, and he worked so hard because he had an ambition in his heart -- and to him, it was. However, to others, it may be a little ridiculous, at least it will feel that it should not match his efforts - he hopes that one day, he can buy a mansion in the bustling Shanghai, and then bring his parents, who are desperately trying to earn money to support him in their hometown, so that they will not go out to work again, and can enjoy the modernity and prosperity of Shanghai like those Shanghainese.

came to Zhou Yi's luxury apartment today, and the ambition in Yan Min's heart began to pound again.

He is not demanding, there is no need to buy a house in Dortmund, just buy it in Shanghai. If he can make a lot of money as famous as Zhou Yi, it shouldn't be a problem to buy a house in Shanghai, right?

"Mr. Schulzer. Yan Min, who had been silent in the agent's car, suddenly spoke.

"Huh?"

"When will I be able to play?"

Yan Min's question surprised Schulzer, and he even turned his head three times in a row to look at Yan Min who was sitting in the co-pilot.

In the past, on the question of whether to play, he used to worry that the young and vigorous Yan Min would be more impatient. The structure was beyond his expectations, and Yan Min behaved very calmly.

But why do you suddenly care about this problem again?

"Only when you play can you get all kinds of sponsorship contracts, right?" Yan Min asked.

"This ...... Theoretically...... Schulze replied.

To put it bluntly, the football world is a world where you talk about strength, if you have strength, you will win and take all, and if you don't have strength, no one will pay attention. The stronger you are, the more rewards you can get, and relatively speaking, the weaker ones will naturally not make much money.

"I want to get into the fight as soon as possible......" Yan Min clenched his fists.

Schulze was embarrassed: "I'm not a manager, I can't solve this problem." ”

When Yan Min heard this, he loosened his fist a little dejected, he knew that Schulze was right, whether he could play or not, I'm afraid only Klopp had the final say. But as it stands, Jurgen Klopp shows no signs of putting himself on the pitch.

He didn't know how long he would have to wait, he used to think he had the patience to keep waiting, but now, his heart was no longer as calm as before.

'The advice I can give you is to train hard, be positive in the team and then hopefully Jurgen Klopp will see your effort and quality and give you a chance ......to play,' Schulze said as he drove.

Yan Min leaned back in his chair, a little helpless. It seems that there is no other way to do it except this method......

Yan Min, who has returned to the training ground, is as hard and focused as ever, and he can't work harder and focus more because his previous attitude in training is impeccable.

In fact, these attitudes are all in the eyes of Dortmund's coaching staff. But that doesn't mean that a good performance in training will necessarily give you the right to play. A team's lineup is determined by a lot of factors. If the main squad is performing well and is fit, why do you have to put substitutes on at this time?

Even if it is a rotation, there are still people who are higher in the order than Yan Min.

Dortmund's midfield competition is actually fierce right now. Mkhitaryan and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, two new additions, have been outstanding, and players like Kuba, who have been in the team all along, have been consistent. Fortunately, Dortmund is now playing in rotation, otherwise it would not have been arranged at all.

Yan Min wants to play, maybe he still needs to wait for his chance.

Since Zhou Yi came to his parents at home, he has nothing to worry about in life, and he can also put all his energy into training. Klopp was also very pleased with Zhou Yi's performance in training, and he knew that it was his parents' credit, so he asked Zhou Yi how long his parents would stay in Dortmund.

When he heard Zhou Yi say that it might only be a month, he was still a little disappointed.

He felt that for Zhou Yi, the most important thing now may be to start a family as soon as possible.

As long as he has a stable family environment, he can bring out all his energy on the court.

When the time comes, the Dortmund team will naturally be the biggest beneficiary.

But this kind of personal emotional problem, Klopp can't manage it. Fortunately, even if Zhou Yi doesn't have a girlfriend, unlike players like Grosskreutz who likes to hang out in nightclubs, he can manage his schedule and state well.

On September 13, the fifth round of the Bundesliga will begin, and Dortmund will host Hamburg on the evening of September 14.

Borussia Dortmund face their first Champions League game of the new season in midweek, away to Napoli.

Considering that the game against Napoli is more important, and considering that they have just played for the national team, many internationals are tired.

So in the Dortmund vs. Hamburg game, Klopp naturally used the rotation.

Some of the players who are not in great physical condition remain in the squad for the game against Hamburg.

Because of this, Yan Min was put into the eighteen-man squad for the competition for the first time.

This is Yan Min's first time since joining Dortmund.

Although Zhou Yi has criticized the Chinese media, asking them not to pay too much attention to when Yan Min will be in the squad and when he will be able to play.

But the news still excites the Chinese media and fans who are obsessed.

Before the game, for the first time, the number of Chinese reporters who went to interview Yan Min exceeded the number of reporters who interviewed Zhou Yi.

"I'm very happy to be on the squad......" Facing the microphones and cameras of reporters, Yan Min was very happy as he said.

I was stimulated just now, and I was selected for the squad, so of course I will be excited.

However, a reporter asked him: "Do you think you can have a chance to play?"

Yan Min was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "I don't know......" His happy expression disappeared by half.

At this time, Zhou Yi walked up, stood next to Yan Min, and said: "I think the most important thing for Yan Min is not to think about when to play, but to be yourself, and then wait until the opportunity comes." Thank you, everyone......" and made a farewell gesture.

When the reporters saw that Zhou Yi had come forward, it was not good for them to continue to surround Yan Min and ask questions, so they had to get out of the way and watch Zhou Yi and Yan Min leave.

After leaving the encirclement of reporters, Zhou Yi said to Yan Min: "Patience, patience, Yan Min. You're on a five-year contract with Borussia Dortmund, which is a long way off. ”

Accompanied by Zhou Yi, Yan Min nodded, but did not speak.

He understands the reason, but he still wants to get a chance to play as soon as possible. However, he didn't lose his temper because of this, he knew that Zhou Yi was for his good, and he could be in the second, but he couldn't be ignorant.

※※※

In the match between Borussia Dortmund and Hamburg, although Klopp rotated the starting line-up, it was not enough to be completely sent to the second team.

At least Zhou Yi started the game.

Considering the rotation of Dortmund's squad, pre-match analysts were convinced that Dortmund should be able to win this game at home, but the process of winning will not be smooth.

But the actual results were surprising.

In the opening ten minutes, Hamburg, who played away from home, were still evenly matched with Dortmund, and it seemed that Dortmund was really affected by the national team's breakday and rotation, although at their home stadium, the performance of the players was not very exciting.

But in the 19th minute, it was Kuba who opened the scoring for Borussia Dortmund with a beautiful long-range shot.

The deadlock on the field was broken!

In the 22nd minute, just three minutes after Kuba's goal, Mkhitaryan extended Dortmund's lead.

Borussia Dortmund leads by two goals!

However, the good times did not last long, and in the 26th minute, Lin Zhijian, a German-Chinese player who played for Hamburg, used the world wave to pull a goal back for Hamburg.

This player has this oriental face, but he is not Chinese. He was born in Hamburg, Germany, his father is from Hong Kong, China, and his mother is German.

The player, who played for Hamburg's first team in the 2011-2012 season, is not a rookie in the Bundesliga.

After the goal, Lin Zhijian was very excited. It was his first goal in the Bundesliga.

CCTV's commentator He Ping also briefly introduced Lin Zhijian's information and situation to the TV audience.

He also mentioned that he could play for Hong Kong, but he could also play for Germany, after all, he has already been selected for Germany's Under-20.

As for playing for the Chinese national team......

In the past, Chinese fans may still look forward to Chinese players like Lin Zhijian, who were born and raised abroad and can't even speak Chinese, play for the Chinese team.

But now that they have Zhou Yi, everyone's interest in this kind of person is much colder.

And after Zhou Yi, we came out with Yan Min again, doesn't it mean that Zhou Yi has a successor?

To be a great China, you still have to rely on yourself.
