Chapter 103 Pervasive Tension
The latest website: Hoffenheim is the first time to enter the Europa League, and the first time to enter the Europa League final.
There are too many firsts for this team, which also makes many people always have great deviations when studying Hoffenheim.
Just like the previous Munich 1900 used last season's data to analyze this season's Hoffenheim, this in itself is a wrong method.
For a team like Hoffenheim, their biggest feature is... change!
Perhaps many giants are emphasizing stability, a continuously strong stability.
But for a club like Hoffenheim, what they need more is change, to find a path that suits them amidst constant changes.
Today's Hoffenheim has firmly moved towards its own road to prosperity and launched an impact on the most dazzling stage.
…
When mentioning Red Factory, many people will think of the old professor.
This old man who has worked hard in Red Factory for 30 years can be said that the glory of Red Factory was created by this old French man himself.
Although Red Factory did not have any European honors, no one dared to underestimate him, and no one felt that he was not worthy of the title of giant.
Eight Premier League titles speak volumes.
Today's Red Factory is only one European honor away, and this time is the closest they are to the Europa League championship.
The old French professor will not let go of this opportunity, just like he put down harsh words in the media.
He has waited too long for this day, and he doesn't have many seasons to waste. He needs a championship, and Red Factory also needs a championship.
From this sentence, you can feel the old professor's desire for the European Championship.
Unknowingly, the old professor is close to 65 years old, and it is unknown how long he can lead the Red Factory.
Many people feel that this is the last chance for the old professor to realize his dream.
The time came to May 20.
On this day, the entire city of Baku was shrouded in a heated atmosphere.
Looking around, there are densely packed fans of the two teams.
During these years of operation, the Red Factory has a large number of fans, and this time is the closest they are to the European Championship, which naturally arouses enough expectations.
And Hoffenheim is not too far behind.
For every Hoffenheim fan, they watched Hoffenheim fight their way up from the lower leagues.
Starting from entering the Bundesliga, galloping and fighting in the European war, and even reaching the Europa League final, such a record is enough to make them proud.
And this Europa League final, they naturally cannot let it go.
From the Rhine-Neckar region, more than 100,000 Hoffenheim fans came to Baku.
Most of them did not have tickets, but came to see the team's winning style.
yes!
They believe that Hoffenheim will defeat the Red Factory and win the final.
The surrounding area of Azerbaijan Olympic Stadium has been completely surrounded.
The fans of the two teams, without distinction, carried a trace of hostility towards each other.
As long as any party dares to make provocative actions, it will definitely be a large-scale brawl.
For this reason, the surrounding police force also watched the two lineups vigilantly.
Luckily, they're pretty safe.
Starting at 15:00, fans will enter the stadium first.
The stadium with a capacity of 100,000 people was gradually filled by the continuous influx of fans.
The organizers prepared 30,000 seats for fans of the two teams.
The remaining 40,000 are reserved for local neutral fans.
However, the popularity of the Red Factory is still higher than that of Hoffenheim. For this reason, many neutral fans are more inclined to the Red Factory, resulting in the number of fans being slightly higher than that of the Red Factory.
But Hoffenheim didn't care about this, they directly hung up the huge TIFO that had been prepared.
Hoffenheim's TIFO culture has become a tradition.
In important games, a huge TIFO must be shown.
But this time, the TIFO they put up looks extremely grand.
For half of the stands, Hoffenheim fans used small boards to construct a 'huge team crest', and on top of it was a faintly falling crown.
The crown is in an uncrowned state, which means that the situation of this game is still unclear.
But as long as Hoffenheim gains an advantage, these fans will definitely put the crown on the head of the team emblem.
The two teams started singing...
Red Factory and Hoffenheim fans sang loudly, which made the atmosphere on the field more tense.
At this time, in the player tunnel, the Hoffenheim players also heard the chaotic but high-pitched singing.
Gudong!
Ranie swallowed, and gently rubbed her palm on the trouser leg.
Hubbard noticed this scene and couldn't help asking; "Are you nervous?"
"Fart!" Ranier said angrily, "I didn't even get nervous when I played in the final of the World Youth Championship."
"But it's the same, you know." Habr said with a light smile.
Ranie said firmly; "I'm not nervous, I just can't wait to kill them."
Just as Habr was about to speak, Ludimod on the side said: "It is a good thing to have confidence, but don't underestimate Red Factory."
After finishing speaking, he pointed to a player beside him and said, "Be careful with that guy..."
Habr and Ranier turned their heads and saw a player with freckles, blond hair, and an extremely young face.
Most importantly, this guy wears the No. 10 jersey.
The number ten of the Red Factory does not have any special meaning, or there has been a great player.
But that was number ten after all.
The representative of the absolute core!
For Hoffenheim, Leo hasn't got the number ten yet. This guy named Fati has already put on the No. 10 jersey of the Red Factory. It's impossible for him to have no skills.
Rudimod said solemnly; "His name is Fati, and he is one year older than you. I heard about him when I was in the Red Factory. He is a talented all-around midfielder."
Ranie couldn't bear the limelight the most, and couldn't help but wonder: "Maybe he's just lucky?"
"You're lucky, but you won't be able to wear number ten!" Habr said with a serious face; "I've seen his video, and he's really strong. He's better than me in terms of breakthroughs."
Ranier froze for a moment.
Don't look at Hable's usual humble appearance, but among this group of friends, this guy is the proudest.
And this guy also has proud capital.
After all, who told him to hold the power to score goals!
Ranie seldom sees Haburkwa people, so he couldn't help asking; "What about other aspects?"
Habr raised his chin slightly, squinted and said, "In terms of vision, passing, and rhythm, I crush him!"
Ranier has a toothache.
So, you compliment him just to elevate yourself?
Ludimod also shook his head helplessly. He originally wanted to raise the vigilance of these guys, but he didn't expect them to be more proud than each other.
But pride is also a good thing, at least not stage fright.
The stage like the final is an opportunity to show yourself.
If you want to play in the final, a big heart is indispensable.
