There is a dream called football

Chapter 532 Li Shan's Historical Moment

In 2018, the last round of the Bundesliga Bundesliga, Nuremberg played against Bielefeld at home.

This is a life-and-death battle, because although the Bundesliga has three promotion places, No.3 is actually going to play a play-off with the third-to-last Bundesliga.

And this game has also received widespread attention from the Chinese media, not because there are Chinese players in Nuremberg, but because the current Nuremberg coach is Chinese and Li Qiao's father Li Shan.

Li Shan crossed his arms and stood on the sidelines, looking at his players. If he wins this game, he will be guaranteed the first place in the league and will be promoted directly. If he loses, he will probably fall to third in the league.

Regardless of the fact that Nuremberg was first in the league before the game, it was only 2 points away from Darmstadt, and it was evenly tied with the second Köln, but with a few more goal difference, Nuremberg ranked first. The competition in the Bundesliga is so cruel in the end.

Li Qiao at the VIP seat was also a little nervous. He knew that such opportunities would not always appear, and in football games, when opportunities arise, they must be seized, otherwise the head coach who has failed in success will actually have no chance to succeed again.

There are too many such examples in the history of football. To give a history, Daum of Leverkusen, Leverkusen led by him is always overtaken by Bayern Munich at the last moment, and he has also lost the nickname of the second in the millennium.

Luo Linda held Li Qiao's hand, "Don't worry, Dad will be fine."

Lorinda and Li Qiao got married two years ago. They settled in Manchester United. Later, Ronaldo left, but Li Qiao stayed at Manchester United until Sir Alex Ferguson left. Under Moyes, Li Qiao spent a depressed season, but after Van Gaal came, Li Qiao was reused again.

Now Li Qiao is 32 years old, maybe he will leave Manchester United soon, but Li Qiao doesn't feel any regrets, his career is perfect.

Of course, what Li Qiao wanted to see most was his father's success as a coach. Only he knew how much his father had paid to become the head coach, and these prices far exceeded what Li Qiao had paid.

Because Li Shan was in his 40s when he changed his career.

Looking at the stadium outside the VIP room, Li Qiao shouted in his heart, "Dad, you must work hard."

During the intermission, Li Shan watched the match between Cologne and Darmstadt. The two teams were ahead of their opponents respectively.

This puts Nuremberg in third place in real time, which is terrible, and if it ends with such a score, then a season will be in vain.

Just when Li Shan was in a hurry in the locker room, there was a knock on the door.

Li Shan opened the door impatiently, probably someone from the Football Association, but unexpectedly, it was Li Qiao who appeared at the door.

The players suddenly opened their eyes wide, like a foodie seeing delicious food.

"Li Qiao."

"Li Qiao."

"It's really Li Qiao from Manchester United, the World Footballer of the Year."

Li Qiao walked into the locker room, "Hello, nice to meet you."

"My goodness."

The locker room became restless, and the players were all very happy. They didn't expect to see their idols on this occasion.

Someone laughed and said, "Coach, you have changed your mind."

Everyone knows the relationship between Li Shan and Li Qiao, and the club has repeatedly hoped that Li Shan would invite his son to the club for activities, but Li Shan sternly refused, saying that he was here for work and had nothing to do with his son.

The Germans, who always like business affairs, also understand very well. Since then, no one has mentioned Li Qiao in front of Li Shan, but this time...

That's why the players were so shocked.

Before Li Shan could speak, Li Qiao smiled and said, "I'm just here to take a look, I don't want to disturb Coach Li Shan's teaching."

"Don't bother, don't bother." Everyone answered with one voice instead of Li Shan.

Li Shan could only chuckle in his heart, "These bastards, if they don't play football well, this time they are really excited."

Li Qiao said with a smile: "If possible, I really want to wear the Nuremberg jersey and play with you, but this is impossible, so I can only encourage you mentally, and I want to tell you a story."

Everyone pretended to want to hear the story, so Li Qiao began to talk about Li Shan's story. He started from an amateur team. At that time, Li Qiao lent him money to train the team.

Then there is the fifth level of the league in Germany, then the fourth level, and finally the professional league, which is the Bundesliga.

Afterwards, Li Shan's talent was discovered, and he moved to Aachen, Fürth and other German teams. Finally, in 2015, Li Shan accepted Nuremberg, which was in the quagmire. It took three years for Li Shan to take Nuremberg from the bottom of the Bundesliga crane to the point where they can now compete for the Bundesliga championship.

When the Nuremberg players finished listening, what they saw was Li Shan, who was in tears. He could be said to be in tears.

It has been too difficult for so many years, misunderstandings, cynicism, language barriers, financial difficulties, and all the hardships that can be endured, but Li Shan still persists, just for his football dream.

The Nuremberg players also cried after listening to it. They read the coach's resume on the Internet, but the text was pale and did not resonate with people. At this moment, everyone knows how difficult it is for the head coach.

At this time, captain Meyer stood up, "In the second half, we will fight for the head coach."

"Fight for the head coach."

In fact, it is not easy to unite such a club, because it is very simple. At this time, a few capable players in the team have already hooked up with the Bundesliga team, and left at the end of the season.

What Bremen, Schalke, their scouts are watching, so for many players, the interests of the team are no longer important, but Li Qiao's words changed the mentality of many people, and they decided to fight in the second half.

But Nuremberg, which was fully fired, suddenly changed. After all, it is the first in the league, and its strength is still very strong. Soon Meyer scored a beautiful header. When Nuremberg opened the goal account, everything became very simple.

After the game, Li Shan burst into tears again. His dream came true, it came true. After so many years of hard work, he can finally become the head coach of the Bundesliga.

You have to know that there are 10 professional coaches in Germany, but there are only a dozen or so who can make it to the Bundesliga stage, which is really one in a million.

Li Shan is embracing his players. He is the happiest person at this moment.
