Chapter 101 Why is he a striker?
The match between Bochum and Hoffenheim attracted a lot of attention.

Most of these concerns come from domestic reporters. Shen Peng now has the opportunity to lead the team to the Bundesliga and become another domestic player who plays in the five major leagues.

At this time, many domestic reporters were watching the game, ready to send the news back as soon as possible.

"Tell me, if Shen Peng is so good, will he have already been spotted by other Bundesliga teams?"

"It's hard to say, I guess, there should already be a team contacting him, but I don't know which team it is."

"No matter what team, it's better than an upgraded team like Bochum!"

"It would be great if Bayern took a fancy to him. Bayern is now the Cosmos team. In the UEFA Champions League semi-final that just ended, they actually defeated Barcelona with a total score of [-]-[-] in two rounds. If Shen Peng can go to Bayern, he is expected to become the first domestic player to win the five major league titles."

The reporter said that although in the 07-08 season, the Premier League Manchester United also won the league championship, and Dong Fangzhuo was also in the team at that time, but he did not get the chance to play, so he did not get the championship medal.

"I guess it is unlikely. Bayern is not short of people now, and Shen Peng has not proved himself in the Bundesliga. I think the most likely are other mid-upstream teams, such as Schalke 04, Borussia, Leverkusen and other teams."

"Speaking of which, Bochum's official website is really strict. There hasn't been any news about Shen Peng's transfer. Now that the league is over, why hide it!"

"Tell me, why don't we make it up ourselves? Anyway, I guess there are only a few teams, and we can always catch one of them."

"Yes, yes, good idea, I'll go back and edit it after the game is over!"

In this game, Yan Liangkuan also came. Although he did not continue to interview Shen Peng, he was still paying attention to Shen Peng.

Hearing the conversations of his colleagues next to him, he couldn't help snorting—they were speaking Chinese, and he wasn't afraid that other foreigners around would hear them, but Yan Liangkuan could hear them clearly.

In fact, he is also concerned about Shen Peng's whereabouts. In his opinion, a second-tier team like Bochum cannot keep Shen Peng. As for there is no news about Shen Peng's transfer, it is probably because Bochum has not announced it because the club still has a few games to play. Everything will become clear after the German Cup on June 6.

In addition to these reporters, there are many Bundesliga teams who are paying attention to this game, but most of them are mid- and lower-level teams. First, they are really interested in Shen Peng, and many of them have even sent an email to Bochum.

As for the upstream team, because Dortmund eliminated Real Madrid with a score of [-] to [-] in two rounds in the Champions League semi-final, so he will compete with Bayern Munich for the Champions League championship. Naturally, he will not have other thoughts at this time; other teams will naturally not care too much about an upgraded team.

Soon came the day of the match, Hoffenheim's home stadium Rhine-Neckar Stadium already had a lot of fans, and they had already started cheering for the team before the match.

Guisdor got Bochum's starting list. As he expected, Bochum was ready to play a defensive counterattack. The formation was 4-5-1, but when he saw the striker's name, he almost bit his tongue.

"Why is Shen Peng a striker?"

He rubbed his eyes to make sure he read correctly.

"Isn't this guy a back waist?"

If Shen Peng played as a striker, then the tactics and arrangements they had practiced for a few days before were completely useless, and at this time, Bochum dared to let Shen Peng play as a single striker, at least it showed that Shen Peng's striker level was good, so he suddenly panicked.

The Hoffenheim players and other coaching staff members were a little dazed when they saw this list. They never expected that Shen Peng would be a striker in this game.

His mind turned sharply, and Guisdor had no time to think about it. It was too late to arrange any tactics now, so he had to tell the players: "When you play the game, don't attack lightly. Pay more attention to this Shen Peng, so as not to be attacked by him!"

……

The audience also got the list of Bochum at this time, and they were all surprised when they saw Shen Peng in the forward position.

"Why does Shen Peng play forward? Isn't he a midfielder?"

"Who knows, maybe the head coach of Bochum felt that he couldn't play against Hoffenheim in this game, so he simply asked Shen Peng to try as a striker."

"Hey, what you said is also possible, but they have done this in such an important game, so they have already given up, right?"

"I'm just guessing, of course it's also possible. Is this actually their secret tactic?"

……

On the other hand, Neuluerer also got Hoffenheim's starting list. As they prepared before the game, Hoffenheim's formation is still 4-2-3-1, and the personnel in most positions are as expected. Only a few positions have been adjusted.

"Haha... It's the same as our previous training. Let's work hard in this game and try to score a few goals in the away game. In that case, it will be much easier for us to play at home!"

In this kind of home and away two-round match, when the total score of the two sides is generally tied, the away goal will be given priority.

There was no such rule before the relegation playoffs of the Bundesliga. At that time, it was stipulated that if there was a tie, there would be a rematch. Dortmund benefited from this: they drew with Cologne in the 85-86 season, but they were at a disadvantage on away goals.

It was not until the 08-09 season that the Bundesliga relegation play-offs considered taking away goals as a priority for a tie.

Therefore, they have to strive for more away goals in this game, and it will be easier when they return to home in the next round.

"Shen Peng, you have memorized the training before the game, let them see your strength for this game!"

Neuluerer smiled proudly. Before the game, he asked several forwards to train with Shen Peng, and taught Shen Peng some simple skills, and Shen Peng's forward talent also surprised him: Shen Peng has fully adapted to the forward position in a short time, and his performance is not even worse than some of the main forwards in the Bundesliga Bundesliga!

He even doubted whether Shen Peng played as a striker before.And he was still wondering if it would be a waste to let Shen Peng kick the back midfielder, but Shen Peng's defensive ability was also excellent, which made him fall into a contradiction for a while, of course, it was a trouble of happiness.

After all the players came to the field, the referee blew the whistle to start the game.
