Chapter 46 Next Stop, Cologne
"He should still be in the club's nursing home now!"

When it comes to Burdaric, most of the team members have such thoughts.

But what they don't know is that a huge storm is quietly brewing. At this time, the German football world, which does not seem to have a wave, is actually already turbulent in the dark.

Only Kenny sometimes looked at the head coach's office with a little worry. He didn't know whether the matter about coach Daum would still be exposed after the hidden danger Brdaric was injured. He helped Italy win the championship and changed history once. I don't know how it will end this time.

Time seemed to pass by peacefully day by day, and in a blink of an eye came September 2000, 9.

Leverkusen sits at home against the underdog Unterhaching.

Facing this Munich team, which was promoted from the lower league to the first division, the Leverkusen team, which made the most of their main force, broke through the gate of Unterhaching in 35 minutes with the free kick of the midfielder Michael Ballack. The victory is locked.

In this game, Kenny continued his previous outstanding performance, making Unterhaching's defense miserable.

After successfully completing the redemption mission against Stuttgart, he also increased his speed from 82 to 86, his dribbling from 76 to 80, his physique from 68 to 70, and his overall ability reached 69 points. It is only a little bit away from the actual combat mode in the system.

Kenny, whose strength has greatly increased, is naturally enthusiastically sought after by the fans, but after the game, all the focus of the reporters is on one person. He is the coach of Leverkusen and the most popular candidate for the German national team. Christopher Daum.

According to the exact news, the German Football Association will finalize the contract with Daum on October 2002 to officially appoint Daum as the head coach of the national team and start preparing for the [-] World Cup!

This is undoubtedly great news for the entire national team and German football. The national team with a worrying record and prospects welcomes such an iron-blooded coach, which fills people's hearts with hope.

Reorganize the national team single-handedly and lead it to the World Cup. I believe this is also the dream of every head coach.

At this time, Dom is only one step away from this.

Looking at the head coach Daum surrounded by many media like stars and moons, Kenny felt a burst of emotion in his heart. The so-called wall is overthrown by everyone. I don’t know if it is true in ten days or so, the media here will come. What a face at that time!
Thinking of this, Kenny shook his head to drive away these negative thoughts in his mind. At this time, Ballack just happened to come over. As the only player who scored a goal in this game, he was naturally received by the fans wherever he went. They cheered like a tsunami.

He smiled and put his arms around Kenny and asked, "Loris, what's wrong with you? Are you not happy after winning?
This is really a good start, with seven points in three innings! "

Seeing Kenny's gloomy expression, Barack was also taken aback.

Then he followed Kenny's gaze, no doubt he also saw Dom surrounded by reporters in the center at this time, just as Kenny thought, he was also a little worried, but he immediately adjusted back, as As the core of the team and an important figure in the championship, he naturally knows more inside information than Keney, for example, Brdaric has been placed under house arrest somewhere.
Thinking of this, he patted Kenny on the head and said, "Hey, Loris, don't think too much, we are going to a beautiful city soon!"

"beautiful city?"

Facing Kenny's puzzled face, Barack smiled and blinked and said, "Have you ever been to the Rhine?"

A few days later, Kenny finally understood the meaning of Barack's words. Sitting by the plane window, Kenny looked down and saw only a long river running across the land flowing through Germany.

It is conceivable that this is the world-famous Rhine.

Barack and Neuville, who were sitting next to Kenny, explained the situation of the Rhine River to Kenny, a foreigner.

This is the largest river in Western Europe that originates from the Alps in Switzerland. It flows northwest through Liechtenstein, Austria, France, Germany and the Netherlands, and finally flows into the North Sea near Rotterdam. It can be said that countless European people have been born. The length of the part is 865 kilometers, and the drainage area accounts for 40% of the total area of ​​Germany. It is a well-deserved cradle of Germany.

The Rhine River flows through the main industrial areas in Europe, which are densely populated. This is also the case in Germany. There are many important cities and industrial parks on both sides of the Rhine River, such as the Ruhr area, Mainz, and Koblen. Z, Bonn, and of course the destination of the Leverkusen players' trip, Cologne, a city with a population of one million across the banks of the Rhine.

After getting off the plane, taking the team bus, Kenny and his teammates entered this ancient city.

Unlike the city of Milan where Kenny grew up and Leverkusen where the club is located, walking on the streets of Cologne makes Kenny feel like he is in the middle ages. The Romanesque churches and Gothic cathedrals that can be seen everywhere make Kenny feel shocked.

And Cologne's landmark building, the Cologne St. Peter's Church standing on the Rhine River, made Kenny sigh for a while. The 157.31-meter-high St. Peter's Church has two Gothic spiers, and the north tower is 157.38 meters high. meters, the south tower is 157.31 meters high, and is currently the tallest twin-tower church in the world.

Walking on the side of St. Peter's Church, a sense of history follows.

Different from the feeling of Chinese national architecture, perhaps because he grew up in the Western world in this life or because of his own rebirth, Kenny at this time is still in awe of such a huge religious building.

As the oldest big city in Germany, Cologne, founded in the Roman era, has maintained an important historical position at all stages of history, just like the football culture here.

Founded on February 1948, 2, FC Köln is a founding member and first champion of the German Football League.

As the most successful team in the early days of the Bundesliga, Cologne has a substantial fan base and fanatical loyalists. Such an old aristocratic team is far from Leverkusen just because of the Rhine Energy Stadium, which can accommodate more than [-] people. The home field can be compared.

Cologne, which was unfortunately relegated in the 1998-99 season, successfully returned to the Bundesliga last season. This time in the new season, they hope to sweep away all obstacles in front of them and achieve revival!

Facing such a tough bone, the whole Leverkusen team is ready to fight. In the last season, they did not get any benefits from Cologne. This time, they hope to take away from the Rhein Energy Stadium. three points.

　The plot is coming to a climax step by step, and I hope all the viewers will recommend and collect more. I heard that Real Madrid bought a 4500-year-old teenager for 16W today.
