Football: Invincible starting from krypton gold

Chapter 73 The arrogant soldier will be defeated
Albertini stood in front of the penalty spot, slowly placed the ball on the penalty spot, and looked at the opponent's goalkeeper calmly.

Maybe this happened countless times in Albertini's career. Albertini's heart, which should have been stagnant after many battles, seemed to have a second spring after joining Mainz, as if he had become younger.

When he first came to Germany, Albertini didn’t have much affection for Mainz. He was just doing what a professional player should do every day. The 33-year-old Albertini only regarded Mainz as a point at the end of his career. But after getting along with these young people for just two months, Albertini felt more and more that it is not a bad thing to retire here.No one knew that Albertini, standing in front of the penalty spot, thought so much.

Following the whistle of the referee, Albertini started to run up. When he got to the front of the football, Albertini smiled at the corner of his mouth when he watched the goalkeeper's movements, and the toe of his right foot jumped lightly. The fans on the scene made a sound of surprise.

The ball Albertini picked out slowly passed the goalkeeper who was already on the ground and fell into the net.

spoon!Albertini showed everyone his calm mind and precise footwork.

3 to 1. In the 57th minute of the game, Chen Xiao was fouled in the penalty area and created a penalty for the team. In the end, Albertini scored the penalty to extend the lead to two goals. Albertini also scored his first goal after joining Mainz.

Mainz used his actual performance on the court to show everyone his strong offensive ability and at the same time tell everyone how united he is.

After the game restarted, Hamburg, which lacked one man, became even more troublesome defensively. Top Taylor had no choice but to replace a forward with a defender. Taylor knew that there was basically no hope for this game. Under the premise of no hope, now he only hoped that the team could lose a few fewer losses.

But things backfired. In order to make their first Bundesliga home game more perfect, Mainz, who played at home, strengthened their offense even more when they saw that Hamburg lacked one player, and they did not mean to let Hamburg go.

And the process of the game was just as Mainz thought.

In the 71st minute of the game, Albertini, who had a rare assist, passed the defender in the frontcourt and then passed the defender with a precise through ball, and passed the ball to Chen Xiao who went forward.

4 to 1, Mainz once again expanded the score, and Chen Xiao scored twice in his second Bundesliga game.

In the 80th minute of the game, Klopp chose to replace Chen Xiao and Albertini.

As the remaining garbage time passed, the game ended at the referee's whistle. In the end, Mainz defeated Hamburg 4-1 at home and achieved two consecutive Bundesliga victories.

The most surprising thing is that after the second round of the Bundesliga, Mainz became the only team with two consecutive victories in the Bundesliga. The other teams were either revealed to be unpopular and tied, or they had a strong dialogue and ended in a tie, or the team that lost in the first round realized their shame and then won the second round.

This result once again put Mainz on the cusp.

But no matter what the outside world thinks, the interior of Mainz is still relatively quiet, but Klopp still found something different from the faces of some players. After these two games, some players felt that the Bundesliga was like this, and they became proud. Faced with such a situation, Klopp knew that he could not solve the problem from the root.

On August 8, Mainz was a guest at the German Stadium to challenge the newly promoted Nuremberg.

With Chen Xiao's free kick in the first half, he directly scored a 1-0 victory, and Mainz also won three consecutive Bundesliga victories.

On August 8, Mainz continued their away trip. This time they came to the Black Forest Stadium to challenge Freiburg away. Facing the visiting Mainz, Freiburg actually chose to attack.

After winning four consecutive Bundesliga victories, Klopp found that the atmosphere in the team was even more weird, especially on the pitch. Sometimes even players like Paul Novicz and van der Meyden who had been in the Bundesliga for many years were a little bit above the ground. However, what surprised Klopp was that apart from Albertini, Chen Xiao, who had always remained calm, remained calm both on the field and in training. .

Knowing that the atmosphere was wrong, Klopp did not make adjustments. In private, Klopp once talked with Chen Xiao and Albertini. Klopp felt that what the current team lacks is failure, and only failure can bring these players back to normal. His primary goal is relegation, and only if he can stay in the Bundesliga will there be other things.

After the game on August 8, Mainz went to Sweden to prepare for the second game of the UEFA Cup first-round knockout round on the 25th, and challenged Malmo away.

In the end, Malmö was eliminated 4-0 with a total score of [-]-[-] with Troshovski's goal.

After the UEFA Cup, Mainz rushed back to Germany overnight to prepare for the next Bundesliga game.

On August 8, Mainz will face Borussia at home. For this game, Mainz fans and most players in the team believe that Mainz will win in the end.

The outside media have also praised Inz as the biggest dark horse in the Bundesliga this season and will be a strong contender for the final Bundesliga championship. Borussia will not be the opponent of Mainz who is currently in full swing at the Opel Arena.

Many media even predicted that Mainz would beat their opponents 3-0 at home and win five consecutive Bundesliga victories. In this atmosphere, many players in the team were very lax in their preparations. Neither Chen Xiao nor Albertini could change this atmosphere. Seeing this situation, Chen Xiao couldn't help saying an old saying: "A proud soldier must lose!"
