Football irons are burning

Chapter 32 Rehhagel's Decision

Most of the media believed that Li Tie's punishment was too light. After all, Li Tie's nature at the time was still a bit serious.

However, the local media in Kaiserslautern thought the sentence was too heavy and complained instead.

This is the difference among our own people.

Suspension means that Li Tie will miss his home debut in the next round, and will also miss the strong confrontation with Stuttgart.

After the penalty decision was made, Li Tie received many comforting calls, including calls from teammates from the national team.

Of course Li Tie didn't take the punishment decision to heart, but he also thanked them for their kindness.

Despite the suspension, Li Tie still insisted on training with his teammates as always.

On February 2th, in the 5nd round of the Bundesliga, Kaiserslautern played against Bochum at home.

Without Li Tie, the team was not affected much, and still defeated the opponent cleanly 3:0 and scored 3 points.

On February 2, Kaiserslautern challenged Stuttgart away. Now, the impact of Li Tie's absence is reflected!
The Stuttgart team's offensive power is very strong. Without Li Tie, the entire Kaiserslautern defense line is exhausted.

In the 29th minute, captain Bremer kicked Balakov over and got a red card and was sent off.

Throughout the game, the team challenged with 10 players and was beaten by Stuttgart.

But the final result was a bit embarrassing. Stuttgart had 29 shots and none of them scored.

On the contrary, Kaiserslautern took 3 shots and scored one.

In the 82nd minute, Marshall made a long-range shot from outside the penalty area. The ball was not powerful, but it had a good angle. It just passed the opponent's goalkeeper's fingertips and scored.

This one is enough for Kaiserslautern to take away 3 points.

This is not over, the good news is that in another game, Bayern was defeated by Hertha Berlin 2:1. Now, Kaiserslautern's lead has expanded to 8 points.

This luck is extremely good, and God will help.

Although this point gap has not yet declared that Bayern is hopeless to win the championship this season, it also makes them quite desperate.

Up and down in Kaiserslautern, there was a burst of joy.

The most fortunate person is Li Tie. He was suspended with a red card, but the team won consecutive games, which means that he did not become the team's sinner.

However, he also felt that in the dark, it seemed that there was really a will of God. In another time and space, wouldn't Kaiserslautern win the championship?Perhaps without themselves, this is also their fate.

At this time, Bowman brought news that the endorsement has been finalized.

Taking time out, Li Tie first signed the Puma contract, and then went to sign the Volkswagen contract. When he saw General Fan and Hero Wei this time, he naturally laughed a lot.

These two guys really stabilized their main force and helped their respective teams win two games in a row.

"Tiezi, why do you have so much beard? You don't look like us Chinese anymore." General Fan laughed.

Li Tie was a little embarrassed. This beard did grow quite fast. Could it be that after he merged the abilities of several foreigners, he also merged his physical characteristics along the way?
On both sides of the cheeks, the beard is very obvious, and it is still very lush. Although Li Tie shaves every day, it still grows very quickly.

"I can't help it, let's not talk about me. You two have adapted very quickly. This is the main force, and you played very well in these two games." Li Tie laughed.

"Who says it's not? I feel really good now, but it's a pity that I came out too late and missed a lot of opportunities." Wei Daxia also felt emotional.

"After filming the commercial, let's get together again, have a meal, and talk later." General Fan said.

The shooting of the advertisement is quite simple. The three of them just put on some poses and say a few words. They must have a professional team to process the content, as long as the three of them are in the picture.

After filming the advertisement, the three of them looked for a place to eat.

"Have you heard? Now the Football Association is contacting the German coach again, and the Brazilian coach hesitated again." General Fan has the most gossip, and he also has many friends in China.

Li Tie laughed and said, "It doesn't matter whoever does it. In the short term, it won't do much. However, the German coach's tactical ability is better, and the management of the team is stricter. This is good for us."

"Not necessarily. Didn't the old man you invited last time prove that he can't do it?" Wei Daxia said.

He was talking about Lao Shi, who not only failed to beat Iraq with the national football team, but even lost in Yemen, so many people thought he couldn't do it.

Li Tie smiled and said: "You can't look at it this way. It may also be that we didn't understand the tactics they arranged. No matter how much it is, let's be ourselves. The strength has improved. No matter who is coaching, we will have something to do."

After the three broke up, Li Tie was thinking to himself, who should the Football Association invite?There are not many famous coaches in Germany who are unemployed at home now?
Back in Kaiserslautern, Li Tie was called to his office by Rehagel.

When Lei Hagel spoke, Li Tie couldn't help being surprised.

"Li Tie, the cadres of your country have come to approach me and asked me to coach your Chinese football team. I want to hear your opinion. Would you like me to coach?" Rehagel said with a smile.

Li Tie thought to himself that this is really inviting a German coach, but after much deliberation, he never thought that the Football Association would invite Rehhagel.

However, he also knows Rehhagel's ability to coach the national football team, so it must be no problem.

In another time and space, people have staged Greek mythology, maybe with the national football team, they can also stage a Chinese mythology.

He hurriedly said: "Coach, I welcome you to coach the Chinese team. If you need any help from me, then I will definitely help."

Rehhagel smiled and said: "What I want is your words. I have talked with your cadres. I am interested in coaching the Chinese team, but I need absolute authority. Otherwise, I will not take risks. I hope you can convey these words, because if I tell them directly, I am afraid everyone will lose face."

Rehagel is obviously very cunning. If he said it himself, the cadres of the Football Association would not agree, and he would lose face. If he agreed, the cadres might lose face.

Li Tie smiled and said, "Coach, I don't really have that many worries. You can just say it directly. Chinese football has its own characteristics. It's fine to adapt. Okay, I'll talk to them later."

The next day, the cadres of the Football Association found Li Tie. Since they all came to Kaiserslautern, of course they would contact Li Tie.

After exchanging pleasantries, Li Tie also directly stated Rehhagel's intentions.

"Leader, there is no doubt about Rehhagel's coaching ability. A newly promoted team like Kaiserslautern is now the top team in the Bundesliga, which proves his ability. For this kind of coach, we must respect him and give him enough power. This will help us achieve good results in the World Cup. I have a hunch that if we let Rehhagel coach, we may achieve good results."

Li Tie said.

After hearing this, the cadres also felt that Li Tie's remarks made sense.

At this time, there were still some superstitions about foreign coaches, and they didn't kill foreign coaches because of Lao Shi's failure.

Therefore, the cadres felt that Li Tie was right, and immediately decided to sign a contract with Rehagel.

The next day, the two parties signed a contract, and Rehhagel will go to China after the end of the Bundesliga season to officially coach the national football team.

After the news spread in the country, it was basically a word of welcome.

Rehhagel's reputation is now quite big in China. Because of the broadcast, he appeared on camera many times, making Chinese audiences know him.

And now that Kaiserslautern's performance is so good, everyone believes that his ability will definitely bring better results to the national football team.

The Kaiserslautern club also extended their blessings very generously, wishing Rehhagel a smooth coaching and leading the Chinese football team to achieve good results.
