After 17 rounds of the Bundesliga, Duisburg is in first place with 36 points, followed by Cologne with 34 points, Fürth with 33 points, Aachen with 31 points and Eintracht Frankfurt with 35 points.

The media generally expects that the three promotion spots will be produced among these five teams, and the Munich 1860, which is very concerned by Chinese fans, is ranked 9th, and there is little hope of promotion.

In terms of scorers, the top scorer is Cologne's Podolski with 12 goals in the first half of the season, followed by Tang Zhenglong and Kalivan, the scorer from Dynamo Dresden, both with 11 goals, and then the Moroccan striker from Duisburg - Ahanforf.

German Sports One (sport1) will do a summary column after the end of the first half of the German Second Division, similar to the domestic "World Football".

The host Const invited the German legend Schumacher, this is not the king Schumacher, but the former German goalkeeper Harald Schumacher, who played for the Cologne club when he was young.

"Harald, if I'm not mistaken, you played for Cologne."

"That's right." Schumacher stretched out his big hand, "I helped Cologne save a lot of must-score goals. ”

"Haha, so is the German team."

"Let's talk about the Bundesliga, after the halfway point the first three are Duisburg, Cologne, Fürth, did you expect it?"

"Cologne is in the top three, which I think is normal, but Fürth ...... I was a bit surprised, and I was surprised that Duisburg was doing so well. ”

"Yes, a lot of strong teams have been left behind, like Frankfurt in 1860."

"Munich 1860 was the most disappointing team and I'm very disappointed with their performance."

Constance nodded in agreement.

"Let's talk about Cologne, and Podolski in particular, who is said to have been linked to your old club Bayern Munich."

"I watched Lucas play live at the Rheinland Energy Stadium and I have to say that Lucas has exactly what he can do."

"But Bayern Munich have had a lot of problems when it comes to bringing in young players, and Deisler is the best example of this."

Schumacher shrugged, "That's the best team in Germany, if you're going to play for Bayern, then you have to put up with the whole German saliva, there's no way around it, otherwise you're leaving." ”

"Well, that's the big guys."

As for Podolski's future, the seniors in the German football circle are also divided into two factions, one group believes that he should go to Bayern as soon as possible, while the other group insists that Podolski should stay in Cologne and renew his contract with the team.

"Let's talk about another interesting player from Cologne – Don from China."

"Haha."

"I remember the last time I saw Don in the newspapers was when he was sued by Claudia from the Express."

"Haha."

Here's the thing, when Claudia asked to interview Tang Zhenglong, he put forward a condition, that is, if Claudia could agree to spend Christmas with him, then she could be interviewed.

And the angry Claudia sued Tang Zhenglong, and the crime was almost like playing hooliganism.

But it doesn't seem serious, because Tang Zhenglong's lawyer quickly affirmed that it was a joke, but Claudia did not withdraw the lawsuit, and the matter continued.

Const laughed: "Every time I see the news about Don, it's either that he's scoring a goal or he's getting in trouble again, and there's almost nothing else. ”

"Haha, a very interesting player, but I have to say that Stevens promoted him to the first team to help the team's attack, and now Cologne is no longer Lucas's one-man team."

"But Tang's technique is too simple, simply put, he can only score goals."

"Hahaha, are you criticizing Don?"

Const was also happy.

"Don's technique is not good, and his physical confrontation is average, which is likely to limit his development."

"The media expects that as long as the opponent puts more pressure on Don in the second half of the game, then he will not be able to score."

In fact, in other words, Tang Zhenglong's good performance is just that the opponent ignores him, not that his ability is really strong.

Schumacher shook his head, "When a striker scores 11 goals in half a season, it's not a matter of luck. ”

"Let's look at it from another angle, if Don continues to improve his muscle strength and dribbling skills, will he become a second Elber?"

Const smiled, "It seems that you are very optimistic about Don." ”

"Maybe we're all big mouths."

Schumacher's big mouth is even stronger than Tang Zhenglong, and in 1987 his autobiography revealed that the German player was taking drugs, but there was no evidence, and then Cologne swept him away, so that Schumacher later went to play in Turkey.

Such a big mouth likes Tang Zhenglong, it should be regarded as a gathering of likes.

*****

The District Court of Cologne, where simple traffic fines, civil disputes and some matrimonial matters are dealt with.

Tang Zhenglong came here accompanied by Emma, and today is the day of the trial.

Tang Zhenglong and Claudia sat on either side, above which was a male German judge.

"Don, do you have any excuse for this lady accusing you of being a hooligan?"

"Honorable Judge, I deny all the accusations made against me by Ms. Claudia, and I am not a hooligan at all."

Then the prosecution and defense began to fight fiercely, and finally the judge pronounced the verdict, and the two settled out of court.

Half an hour later, Emma and the opposing lawyer's lawyer reached a settlement.

"Don, I have reached a settlement with the opposing lawyer, on the condition that you apologize to the Express and pay 1,000 euros in compensation."

Tang Zhenglong exploded when he heard it.

"No way, I'm innocent, you go and tell her, it's impossible for me to apologize."

Emma grimaced, "Don, this is the best result I can get for you, who told you to have such a big mouth." ”

Tang Zhenglong was upset, "Is it that your level is not good, or let your uncle come." ”

Emma said angrily: "You let the best lawyer in Germany come and do the same, I advise you to accept Claudia's terms." ”

Tang Zhenglong was very unhappy, he suffered a big loss this time, I didn't expect this girl to be so small-bellied, okay, I remember, next time you want my interview, I won't let you spend Christmas with me, but spend a year with me!!

"You tell her that I can apologize, but in the Cologne Courier, if she has to apologize in the Express, then I will not apologize."

Emma was helpless, encountering such a living treasure, in the end, both sides took a step back, Tang Zhenglong apologized in the "Cologne Courier", but the apology statement had to be shown to Claudia first.

****

Cologne Lounge.

Schultz took a newspaper and began to read aloud.

"I, Tang Zhenglong, apologize for my inappropriate remarks to Ms. Claudia and promise never to make the same mistake in the future, and I am willing to donate 2,000 euros in the name of Ms. Claudia to the Cologne Children's Center."

"Hahaha."

The teammates laughed, it was the first time they saw Tang Zhenglong suffer.
