Chapter 38 The Wind Blows the Southern Territory
After half a season of competition, the top 16 of the German Cup have all been released.
Among the 16 teams, the Bundesliga teams occupy 12 places, the Bundesliga 3 and the Southern Regional League one.
Hoffenheim is very abrupt among these 16 teams.
It's like a lamb among lions.
After entering the top 16, Hoffenheim has also been noticed by the national media. Three years ago, they became popular in Germany because of their popular home show.
But now, they have rushed to the third round of the German Cup with their strong strength, becoming one of the top 16 teams, tying the historical record of low-level teams in the German Cup.
On January 29, Anton Keith, the head of the youth section of the well-known German magazine "Sportsman", suddenly made a statement on Twitter.
[Hot German Cup! Hot Hoffenheim! If miracles have colors, they are destined to belong to black and red! 】
Immediately afterwards, the famous German actor Julia forwarded this tweet and said:
【go ahead! Hoffenheim, I will pray for you! 】
Finally, Polly, a well-known narrator of German TV station, also reposted this tweet, saying at the same time:
[A gust of wind is brewing in the south, and sooner or later it will sweep across Germany! 】
And finally the Dortmund players, Morsi also retweeted this:
【I'm glad to hear from you. I feel very conflicted. I hope you can advance, but I don't want to meet you in the German Cup! 】
Celebrity produces great chain hair hard.
Whether it is Anton Keith, Julia, Morsi, Polly, etc., they all have great influence in their respective circles.
Not Julia and Morsi.
The former is a well-known actor, and the latter is a super striker who has recently emerged in Germany.
The two themselves have great enthusiasm, and their remarks also pushed Hoffenheim into the national vision.
Many fans are wondering, who is Hoffenheim?
Why are Julia and Morsi cheering for her?
and,
Does this team name seem familiar?
Soon, the media who got wind of it started to work.
Various information about Hoffenheim was picked up.
Looking at this information, the German people were shocked.
For example, three years ago this was a team in the seventh division of Germany!
In the past three years, he completed a triple jump and came to the German fourth-tier league, which can be described as a crazy counterattack.
In addition to these, they have cultivated Morsi.
Many people think that Morsi is from Saarbrücken, but they don't know that a long time ago, Morsi was a player who could only play in low-level leagues.
In addition, words such as '20 million debt sheet', 'country team', 'hot home court' and so on entered their field of vision.
This time, Hoffenheim completely appeared in the eyes of fans across the country.
Fans have left messages in the report...
"It's cool! Isn't it? To build a training base, they borrowed 20 million euros. They are very bold! I like this kind of team!"
"A dark horse in the country? Germany is too rigid, it needs a miracle!"
"This is the German seventh division team from three years ago? God! They've tripled now?! Cool!"
"I watched their game against Saarbrucken three years ago, and the atmosphere at home was absolutely amazing!"
"A miracle? A miracle from the countryside? That's awesome!"
"Come on! Hoffenheim! Fuck those Bundesliga teams! Hahahaha!"
For the unchanging German football, the public has already felt fatigued.
Every year, it is a situation where the "one super three" reach the top, and the competition is the same every year.
They need stimulation, they want to see change.
And Hoffenheim suddenly rushed into the top 16 of the German Cup, which surprised them, but also expected that this team could go further.
Of course, some fans scoffed at this.
"It's just luck, the champion of the German Cup still belongs to Munich 1900, who makes him a rich man!"
"Yes, she is a rich man!"
"A giant that can only poach the corners of other teams, has the ability to poach the corners of other league giants!"
"Hang in the nest! The Munich 1900 style makes me sick."
"It will be different after the round of 16. It is estimated that Hoffenheim will fall in this round, and the next stage will be the Bundesliga team!"
"Don't play against 1900 Munich. If you don't play well, you will lose. If you play well, unfortunately, they will hollow you out!"
"The miracle stops at the round of 16, and then the stage of the Bundesliga teams!"
Against Hoffenheim, Germany's internal football scene became lively.
Some positive and negative fans are expressing their views.
Some people believe that Hoffenheim can continue to create miracles and get close to the quarter-finals strongly.
Some people think that the miracle will come to an abrupt end in the round of 16.
Both sides firmly believe in their own views and continue to discuss and argue on the Internet.
Of course, many people don't think that Hoffenheim can go further.
For low-level teams, the third round of the German Cup is over!
…
"GoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaL!!"
Polly, the commentator of the German Cup broadcast station, stood up suddenly and roared at the top of his throat.
His voice became sharp because he was too excited, and his eyes were fixed on the referee on the big screen.
Who would have thought!
Who would have thought!
In the third round of the German Cup, Hoffenheim VS Wien Hamburg, it was Hoffenheim who scored the first goal.
Wien Hamburg was the champion team of the German Cup four years ago. This is a serious Bundesliga team.
But it was such a team that was scored by Hoffenheim on the German Cup stage.
This was a clever anti-offside attack after Hoffenheim's opening, and Ji'an succeeded in anti-offside and scored the goal.
All eyes were on the referee, including Polly.
Under the gaze of everyone, the referee pressed the earphones as if communicating something. After a while, he pointed to the middle circle with one finger and blew his whistle.
The goal is valid! !
boom! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ——
At this moment, the entire Filzmore Stadium was boiling.
The Hoffenheim fans jumped up.
They hugged each other, cheered, and shouted.
Even they didn't expect that their home team would score the first goal and played so wonderfully.
At the coach's bench, Loel Christopher and Wagner embraced each other.
Wagner shouted excitedly: "It succeeded! It succeeded! It really succeeded!"
They have carefully studied the team of Wien Hamburg and found that the opponent is not a team that takes the initiative to make trouble, and the rhythm is very slow in the early stage, and the speed of entering the game is also very slow.
Hoffenheim will seize this.
Start a sneak attack in the early stage to see if you can score first.
And now Hoffenheim's tactics are working.
They successfully took advantage of Wien Hamburg's underestimation of the enemy and some habits to score the goal first.
"Defend! Defend! Go back and defend!"
After the goal, Loel Christopher shouted loudly, urging the players to go back to defend.
There is still a gap in strength between Hoffenheim and Wien Hamburg.
Now they rely on their cleverness to score the first goal, and then they need to come up with the classic bus formation.
"Nice job! Guys!"
Gray clapped his hands loudly, and encouraged him: "The advantage is now on our side, but we must pay attention to defense, Zarno, don't forget the task given to you by the boss!"
Zarno shouted; "Don't worry, I will keep an eye on the other party's No. 10, no matter where he goes, I will follow him!"
Gray nodded, turned and shouted, "Kira! Run!"
With a bang, a figure passed by him.
He saw No. 33 chasing the ball.
"Already running!"
