Chapter 292 The League Ends
At the Weser Stadium, when the referee blew the final whistle, all the substitute players who had already stood up and looked expectant rushed into the field, gathered in the center of the field with the main players, and surrounded Zhou Tiancheng.

Everyone knows who is the real hero of the team. Not to mention the perfect penalty kick, if Zhou Tiancheng hadn't organized the midfield in an orderly manner and was proficient in assists and scoring, the team would never have lifted the salad for two consecutive seasons. disc opportunity.

"Zhou, well done! Hahaha, we are the champions!"

"The thing I don't regret the most in my life is being a teammate with you, Zhou, haha!"

"Brother Cheng... Oh my god! It's almost..."

"Oh! Haozi, why are you pinching me?" Zhou Tiancheng suddenly let out a miserable howl.

Jiang Hao chuckled: "It's true, it's true, now I believe it, this is not a dream."

"I can't believe you pinched yourself, why did you plot against me?"

"I'm afraid of pain. Brother Cheng, you have thicker skin than me, so pinching it won't cause any serious problems."

Zhou Tiancheng spent a lot of effort to push away the mountains that were pressing on him, and then ran to the coach's bench and hugged Magath: "Boss, let's celebrate together at such a festive moment." "

Magath patted Zhou Tiancheng's shoulder with a smile: "You boys are doing well. Go ahead and be happy. I'm an old man, and I'm just like you. How is this decent?"

Magath obviously squinted his eyes with joy, but he still paid attention to his image.

Winning the away game was exciting, but it didn't make everyone happy enough. There was no must-have after winning the championship in the locker room: champagne.Everyone feels that there is no atmosphere at all. If it is at home, you can take a wine bath comfortably at this time, spray each other's faces, and slowly flow down every strand of hair. That feeling is refreshing , This is the feeling that winning the championship should feel.

Now, there is really nothing to make these young people vent themselves, except to let go of their voices one by one, but soon everyone stopped doing it, and they really looked like a bunch of idiots.

Magath originally didn't intend to stop everyone today. This moment is very rare. There are not many Bundesliga champions except Bayern Munich. It is not easy to do this. Happy.The season is not over yet, and the more important UEFA Champions League final is still to come. Magath originally wanted to wait a few days before coming back, but now it seems that he doesn't need to say more.Keep it up, it's fine.

On the night of winning the championship, Zhou Tiancheng received a call from Yang Cheng.

"Brother Cheng... Ha, awesome, what a beautiful job!"

Hearing the somewhat incoherent tone on the other end of the phone, Zhou Tiancheng couldn't help laughing: "Old Yang, did you make a long-distance call just to compliment me? Haha, I take it. I'm more awesome now. It's me There are still a few, so I don’t need to remind you.”

"Uh, yes, look at how excited I am. I want to ask Brother Cheng, since he has successfully defended his title, do you want to organize some activities for everyone to have fun?"

Zhou Tiancheng was silent for a few seconds on the other end of the phone, and then rebuffed: "Forget it, Lao Yang, I know that everyone likes this kind of event, but you tell everyone, I really don't have time now, the next two weeks in Germany The Cup final and the Champions League final are enough for me, and the club has even postponed the championship celebration, so let everyone bear with it, and when I win the next two championships, we will make a big one together."

"Okay, Brother Cheng, I'm actually saying the same thing, but everyone is too excited to wait."

Zhou Tiancheng smiled: "Then let me give you a benefit first. You can count how many people are going to Madrid to watch the Champions League final in the past two days. I will transfer a sum of money to the club account first. As I said, everyone will go abroad. Watching the game, I have to pay for it.”

"Okay, I'll ask in the past two days, but I guess it will cost a lot, brother Cheng, I guess most people can make time for it."

Zhou Tiancheng waved his hand at the head: "That's okay, everyone will come to support the crowd, I can't wait for it."

……

Schalke did not return to Gelsenkirchen, but set off directly from Bremen to Mainz, the capital of the Rhineland-Palatinate state, to prepare for the final league match against Mainz.Magath expected that if he returned to Gelsenkirchen, he would inevitably be surrounded by the media from all sides, so he simply left where he was, so that it would be more conducive for everyone to concentrate on the game.

Although the final game of the league is already tasteless, winning or losing does not matter, but in the eyes of Magath, there is no game that can be handled casually.

Of course, lineup rotation is another matter, that's tactics.

In the last game, Magath carried out a big rotation of the starting lineup. Not only did Zhou Tiancheng not play, but his position was replaced by Baumjohn. Even Van Nistelrooy and Jiang Hao were both put on the bench. Edu played for the first time.Magath is obviously preserving his strength, so the final 0:0 result is not everyone's focus.Everyone knows that Schalke will not go all out for this irrelevant game.

After the 34th round of the Bundesliga, all the suspense and dust settled. Schalke won the championship with 23 wins, 77 draws and [-] losses with [-] points. It will be the Champions League team of the Bundesliga next season. Bayer Leverkusen and Schalke's rival Dortmund are ranked fourth and fifth respectively, and have qualified for the Europa League.The two unfortunately relegated teams are Bochum and Hertha Berlin, and the third-to-last Nuremberg will have to participate in the relegation play-offs to decide their fate.

What makes Zhou Tiancheng a little happy is that Hannover and Freiburg are on the edge of the relegation zone, which means that Ming Tao and Chen Pengfei can continue to stay in the Bundesliga.

Zhou Tiancheng expressed his congratulations in the group of several of them, and now the group of four has become five, and Hao Junmin was also pulled in.The "five little dragons studying abroad" who are currently the most concerned about Chinese football communicate and understand each other in this way.

With the end of the league and the Bundesliga players entering the holidays one after another, Schalke has now become the absolute protagonist in German football.They shouted out the goal of the Triple Crown in a high-profile manner. Whether it was those who expected them to perform miracles or their opponents who were waiting to see their jokes, they all focused their attention at this time.

It's time to lift the lid, and the next two weeks will determine whether Schalke will be a Bundesliga miracle or a joke that will be around for years.

According to the experience of the league, the mainstream view is that Schalke will probably become the latter. Although they have conquered most of the German media, careful analysis shows that their hard power is not enough to form an absolute dominance in the Bundesliga, let alone All of European football.Not to mention the lofty Barcelona, ​​even Bremen, the final opponent of the German Cup, just played a draw with them, which is obviously not a soft persimmon.
