Chapter Twenty-Six: Coach, I Want to Play!
The points rules announced by the system made Lin Quan feel a little relieved in his heart.
He only got one point in this game, which seems to have something to do with the low level of the game.
Because the opponent is a team from the Bundesliga, and Werder Bremen did not have a good result last season.
Therefore, in the judgment of the system, the level of this game is equivalent to the level of the five major leagues and sub-leagues, that is, the German Second Division, the English Championship, the Spanish Second Division and other leagues.
The rewards for this type of league are a notch lower than those of the top five leagues, and if the league is lower, the rewards will continue to be reduced.
Like the Chinese Super League in China, a game of this level can only get 0.5 points or even less for winning a game.
However, these leagues were basically out of Lin Quan's consideration, so he just glanced at them and didn't pay attention to them.
There are only 18 teams in the Bundesliga, with only 34 games per season.
That's less than in La Liga and the Premier League.
Not only that, but the Bundesliga also has fewer cup competitions than other leagues, with only one German Cup.
Werder Bremen, on the other hand, were not in the European league last season and did not qualify for either the Champions League or the Europa League.
So, their main competitions this season are the Bundesliga and the German Cup.
There are a total of 34 rounds in the Bundesliga, and as long as he is not injured and performs consistently, he should have no problem playing consistently.
As for the German Cup, it depends on the strength and luck of the team, and if you are lucky, you may be able to make it all the way to the final.
If the signing luck is not good, you may encounter a strong enemy as soon as you come up and be swept out of the game directly.
So for Lin Quan, he has to do his best to win every game.
Otherwise, he may not be able to accumulate enough points in two seasons!
Thinking of this, Lin Quan secretly warned himself not to get carried away and not to have any slackness.
He has to work harder to improve his quality so that he can improve his team's winning hopes, even against some strong teams, there is a possibility of winning the opponent.
So, early the next morning, Lin Quan came to the training ground early, and before the team started formal training, he practiced for himself alone.
Half an hour later, De Bruyne also arrived at the training base.
Seeing that Lin Quan was training, he immediately changed his clothes and participated.
"Come on, old rules, I'll defend your attack!"
Is this guy addicted to abuse?
Lin Quan couldn't help but slander, but if someone was willing to train with him, then he would definitely not be able to ask for it.
So, the two began to practice familiarly again.
The training attitude of the two infected the players of the team, and after the players who arrived later saw the training of the two, they did not chat or play on the sidelines as usual, but joined in and began to train.
This scene surprised the members of the coaching staff.
"I didn't expect that the arrival of these two people would bring such a change to the team!"
"Yes, young players at this age, once they become famous, many of them will feel complacent, get carried away, and then don't train seriously, and then gradually degenerate, and finally disappear, and there is no such person found.
There is no shortage of such geniuses in the football world who have been ruined by praise and flattery from the outside world!
But the two of them can calm down, not arrogant or impatient, this mentality is very rare! ”
The players are so serious and the coaching staff can't afford to be behind.
So, they began to arrange tactical drills in earnest to prepare for the next warm-up game.
On 26 July, Werder Bremen continued to play at home against veteran Scottish Premiership rivals Aberdeen.
Werder Bremen made some changes to their line-up for this game, as striker Nils Petersen, who is on loan from Bayern Munich, was pressed to the bench due to a poor performance in the previous game.
In place of him, the team's own academy training, born in 93, is now 19 years old young player - Niklas Phil Kruger.
The future Germany international was still young at this time and not as strong as he was later.
Unlike the arrogant Nils, Phil Gluke has previously played in the youth team, so he cherishes one of the few opportunities to play in the first team.
He knew that he was young and limited, and the coach arranged for him to play as a fulcrum in the front court with the advantage of his height and fitness, not to let him play the role of the team's finisher.
Therefore, he has a very clear cognitive positioning for himself, that is, he is willing to be a green leaf, not to be a safflower, and not to steal the limelight of the team's bigwigs.
In this game, Phil Gluke was very good up front.
After he has the ball up front, he can withstand the interference of opposing defenders, get the ball back and pass it to teammates in better positions.
This is completely different from Niels, in the last game, once the ball was passed to Niels' feet, he would not pass the ball easily unless he was caught by the opponent and really had no chance to hit the goal.
He didn't pass the ball and couldn't form a dangerous shot, and the result was that Werder Bremen had a poor offensive performance, and the team had many chances, but they couldn't find the back of the net.
But Phil Gluck doesn't stick to the ball on the field, doesn't do anything, can pass the ball, can cooperate with teammates, and will actively chase back when defending.
This has made the team's attack more fluid, and the defensive intensity of the midfield has also increased a lot!
As a result, in the first half of the game, Werder Bremen took an early lead.
Kevin De Bruyne scored twice in the 23rd and 38th minutes of the first half to almost kill the suspense of the game.
It is worth mentioning that De Bruyne's second goal came from an assist from Phil Gluk.
The latter already had a good chance on goal, but he opted for an unselfish pass to Kevin De Bruyne, who was in a better position.
This earned him the admiration of Kevin De Bruyne, who ran over to him and hugged him after the goal.
On the sidelines, after seeing De Bruyne score the second goal, Lin Quan's heart was both happy and worried.
His friend did a great job, and he was sincerely happy for each other.
However, with such a big lead in the first half, if the coach felt that the advantage was too big and did not let him play, then he would have to say goodbye to this point.
Tintin, Tintin, you can quickly collect the supernatural powers!
Score two goals, save some face for the visiting team, and don't score again!
Let me help you score the rest of the ball!
Just when Lin Quan was worried about whether he would be able to play in the second half, the coaching staff was also discussing this issue.
"Aberdeen is also a veteran powerhouse of Su Chao, why do you feel so unbeaten?"
"Could it be that our strength is too strong?"
"Aberdeen is a friendly opponent that we have invited all the way to come, and if we give each other a heavy defeat at home, it will be a bit difficult to get by!"
"Well, let the players keep a little bit, this is not an official game, there is no need to humiliate the opponent, if there is really a tragedy, we are afraid that we will not be able to make an appointment with the opponent of the friendly match in the future!"
"Then do you still have to arrange Lin Quan to play in the second half? With his attacking ability, I'm worried that something will really happen......"
Shaaf scratched his head and glanced at Lin Quan, who was sitting on the bench.
Because of his outstanding performance in training and in the last game, Lin Quan is already an absolute workhorse in his tactical system for the new season.
In this game, he originally planned to arrange Lin Quan to play to continue to practice, and by the way, to enhance the tacit understanding between him and other players in the team.
As a result, the game situation was too smooth, and his plan was a little unable to keep up with the changes.
Lin Quan felt the coach's gaze, so he looked at the coach with great sincerity.
The meaning conveyed in the eyes is:
Coach, I want to play!
