Chapter 15: Keep an eye on Sun Xingmin
Early in the morning, Li Lei couldn't sleep.
With his understanding of Leverkusen, the more lethal one is center forward Son Heung-min.
This guy is from South Korea, he is 22 years old at this time, and he is an out-and-out dark horse.
Thinking of this, he came directly to the Bayern club early.
Head coach Flick is already training here, and Klose and others are already warming up here.
Seeing Li Lei appear in the club very early, Klose and others were very surprised.
"Huaxia, isn't it your first time as a starter, a little excited."
"yes, I think so, at Barcelona, he didn't start once." Muller laughed.
"Actually, no matter what, at least he came to the club early." Ram cast a friendly look at Li Lei.
Lewandowski on the side did not speak, because his main attention was focused on Coach Flick's analysis.
His main focus was on striker Keessling, midfielder Brandt and goalkeeper Leno.
It's no wonder that Sun Xingmin at that time was a no-name junior at all.
The opposing head coach has placed him in the midfield position, and he seems to be an obscure character.
By the time Frank had analyzed all of this, the team had a heated discussion.
"Coach Flick, I think you're taking Bayer Leverkusen too seriously." Mueller laughed.
"I think so, he's just a second-rate team, and even Muller alone can break down their defence." Lewandowski laughed.
"Especially the Kiessling you mentioned, he is quite good for a weak team, and against our Bayern, he basically has no chance." Klose also said confidently.
Li Lei didn't speak, because Sun Xingmin's explosiveness is quite amazing.
If you rashly bring it up now, I'm afraid it will be attacked by my teammates.
However, out of gratitude to Coach Flick, he still chose to remind.
"Coach Flick, have you noticed a member of the Bayer Leverkusen team named Son Heung-min?"
When Mueller heard the name, he immediately showed a strange expression.
He looked Li Lei up and down, and then made a grimace.
"I've heard the name, it seems to be Asian, from the country of sticks."
There was a kind of contempt in Mueller's tone, and Li Lei's face immediately changed.
He said sternly: "Mr. MΓΌller, please be respectful to Asians. β
Mueller spread his hands and looked indifferent.
"I'm sorry, but that's what I, Mueller, have always said. I just don't feel the need to focus on this Asian guy. β
Klose also smiled contemptuously: "I also think that person is a little-known person at all, and our main focus should still be on the main players of the other party." β
Lewandowski never spoke, but he focused on Li Lei.
He was not surprised by Li Lei's remarks, but surprised by what he was based on?
"Mr. Li Lei, I think you are fabricating this basis out of thin air, there is really no need for an unknown young player to be like this." Lewandowski's words are still relatively rational.
Compared with them, Ram is constantly encouraging Li Lei at this time.
"Mr. Li Lei, don't take their words to heart, after all, you are in the midfield position, and you can choose who to defend independently."
This sentence reminded Li Lei, yes, the opponents that these guys don't pay attention to can be paid attention to.
He cast Ram a grateful look.
Flick's line-up is still relatively conservative, and Neuer is still the first goalkeeper.
Once all the positions of the players were announced, the players got on the bus and headed straight for Bayer Leverkusen's home stadium.
Along the way, the other team members were still enjoying the scenery along the way.
Li Lei just kept thinking about Sun Xingmin's dribbling characteristics in his mind.
The most powerful thing about this guy is his personal breakthrough ability and his explosiveness.
In this competition, Li Lei decided to completely block Sun Xingmin alone.
If it had been placed in the past, such a decision might have been extremely absurd, after all, he and Sun Xingmin were not at the same level at all.
But now that Li Lei, who has taken the soul water, his physique has reached an astonishing second-level level.
In other words, even against those first-class football players, it is not much inferior.
More importantly, Li Lei is a player who has just joined Bayern, and other teams will not care about him at all.
This just gave Li Lei a chance to create a miracle unexpectedly.
The players soon arrived at Bayer Leverkusen's home stadium, where they were warming up.
Far away, Li Lei saw Sun Xingmin, who was relatively short in the crowd, at a glance.
When the other team members saw the little man, they immediately talked about it.
"This is probably the Sun Xingmin in Li Lei's mouth."
"Is such a strange player also a threat to us?"
"Could it be Koreanophobia? Isn't this something that Chinese people are often afraid of? β
"Then Li Lei shouldn't make the same mistake in this game, right?"
Li Lei didn't bother to deal with the discussions of these team members at this time.
Son Heung-min is in the midfield, but this guy likes to replace the winger the most.
Once the side breakthrough is implemented, the lethality is extremely huge.
Thinking of this, Li Lei no longer pulled with those players, but ran directly to the field to warm up.
Soon, Li Lei attracted the strange eyes of the Leverkusen players.
"I heard that Bayern has introduced a Chinese player, is this guy?"
"It looks weak, could it be a distraction?"
"Whatever, it's a good thing for our team anyway."
"The more chaotic Bayern's team is, the easier it will be for Bayer Leverkusen to beat them."
In the name of warming up, Li Lei quickly approached Sun Xingmin's side.
Although the distance between the two was not very close, Li Lei clearly felt the vitality emanating from Sun Xingmin's body.
"I heard you're from Asia too!" Li Lei took the initiative to speak to Sun Xingmin.
Sun Xingmin didn't have a fight, and immediately smiled at Li Lei.
"That's right, I'm from South Korea, what about you? From China? β
Li Lei nodded confidently, which made Sun Xingmin very impressed.
In the past, those Chinese players were reluctant to communicate with Koreans.
What does it mean that this Huaxia man actually took the initiative to talk to him?
"We will be opponents on the field for a while, and I want to witness your strength." Sun Xingmin said modestly.
"I also want to experience the true strength of the first brother in Asia!"
Sun Xingmin and Li Lei's eyes were full of a strong smell of gunpowder.
At this time, the referee's whistle sounded.
