Chapter 147 014 The Champions League Begins
On September 9, the day before Dortmund's UEFA Champions League group match against Feyenoord, Li Feng's mother, Thomas and the Pilar brothers and sisters all arrived in Dortmund one day earlier.After Li Feng received them, he arranged their accommodation, and took them around the city of Dortmund by the way.

On this day, many hotels in the urban area of ​​Dortmund were booked in advance, but fortunately, Li Feng made the reservations early.

"Feng, will you play in this Champions League game? This is the new court against the old master. If you play, can you play normally?" Bilal said.

"Although we are Feyenoord fans, the most important thing is your fans. So we support you no matter what." Petit said happily.

"Thank you, Petty! You are getting more and more beautiful." Li Feng said.

"By the way, your hairstyle is not as good as it used to be. Did you get hit by something?" Pilar suddenly noticed this.

"Uh, I didn't want all the nutrition to be absorbed by the hair, so I cut it. Does this reason convince you?" Li Feng hurriedly found an excuse.

"What do you think, it's barely enough! Hahahaha!" Pilar said deliberately.

The two looked at each other, and Petty looked at Li Feng who was handsome and sunny, his eyes filled with deep admiration.Yes, it is admiration!

After making arrangements for the Bilar brothers and sisters, Li Feng accompanied his mother and Uncle Thomas to have a sumptuous dinner at home, which was cooked by Li Feng's mother herself.Originally Li Feng proposed to go to the restaurant for dinner, but Li Feng's mother firmly disagreed, saying that she hadn't cooked for Li Feng for a long time.

Seeing his mother's happy appearance, Li Feng was also very happy in his heart.My mother has taken care of him alone for so many years, and she has paid too much for him.He works hard in the professional arena, not only for ideals, but also to make himself stronger, so that one day he can protect the one he loves.

"Are you still used to being here alone? Does Shihan often go on business trips? I worry about you the most. I worry that you won't take care of yourself. What if you're sick?" Li Feng's mother kept saying worried words.

Uncle Thomas on the side expressed his helplessness.

Li Feng said with a smile: "Mom, don't you see that I am very good, I have become stronger and stronger! I can take care of myself by myself. I am an adult, so you don't have to worry. Just take care of yourself."

"What's the matter with your hair? Why did you cut it suddenly? I used to see you with long hair before, but suddenly with this hairstyle, I feel that you are not my son." Li Feng's mother said with a little resentment.

"Uh, you won't know me after you cut your hair. Aren't I more handsome and energetic like this?" Li Feng said with a smile.

"Yes, that's true! My son is the most handsome!" Li Feng's mother said with a smile.

Hearing what his mother said, Li Feng and Uncle Thomas laughed together.

On September 9, Dortmund's Champions League group match against Feyenoord officially began.

"Hello, audience friends! The first match of Group D of the 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League group stage will start at Dortmund's Westfalenstadion. Now we can see that the fans at the scene are in high spirits. Today's Westfalenstadion is full of seats. The preliminary estimate is that the number of fans present today should reach 7 to [-]." The host surnamed Zhang of the domestic sports media said.

"Yes, we can see Dortmund players wearing yellow and black at home and Feyenoord players wearing blue away jerseys are ready to enter the player tunnel today. The reason why this game has received so much attention is firstly how far Dortmund can go in this crowded Champions League, and secondly whether our Chinese teenager Li Feng will come off the bench in this game. This is something we are worth looking forward to," said the host surnamed Zhan.

After the grand opening ceremony, players from both sides entered the field.Li Feng did not start the game, but when he came out of the locker room, he and his former Feyenoord teammates greeted each other.Especially Klassie, he laughed a lot when he saw Li Feng's hairstyle, saying that Feyenoord's Pirlo in the past is gone, which is a tragedy in football history.This made Li Feng extremely embarrassed, and all his former teammates laughed together.

Although they may be rivals on the field, they will always be friends off the field.

The game started after the referee's whistle.The current fans also let out huge cheers and whoops.

Dortmund took the lead.

Today, coach Klopp still sent a 4231 formation, which is also the main lineup.And Feyenoord's lineup is exactly as they had expected before, a 442 formation.The players who started the game were similar to what they had judged before.

Li Feng also wanted to see how the team's tactics changed after he left Feyenoord, whether it became stronger or weaker.

In this game, the outside world is unanimously optimistic about Dortmund.Some gaming organizations even offered a 2-goal handicap for Dortmund, which only appears when Dortmund is extremely optimistic.

"Okay, the game has officially started. Let's take a look at Dortmund's first attack after watching the field." The domestic sports media host surnamed Zhang said.

After the kick-off, Lewandowski gave the ball to Royce, and Royce passed it back to Gotze behind him.

When Dortmund started to push forward with the ball, Feyenoord did not press all the way up to press, but the two strikers Sekusis and Shaken made an interfering press.The space between Feyenoord's midfield and defense was minimal.

When Dortmund all pressed to Feyenoord's half, they suddenly found that they had no way to move forward, because whenever they wanted to penetrate Feyenoord's position, they would be double-teamed by two or even three people, and the space was extremely small, and there was no time to adjust the passing route.

In the end, there was no way, Dortmund could only pass the ball back, and then gradually retreated, allowing Feyenoord's players to press on and pull the formation of the two sides apart.

"We saw that the attacking rhythm of the two sides was not very fast at the beginning, and Feyenoord's defensive position was very stable, and they were not in a hurry to grab." The host surnamed Zhan said.

"Feyenoord coach Koeman is a very patient coach. His defensive counterattack was once famous in the Eredivisie. It can wear down the opponent's patience, and finally it is his chance to counterattack." The host surnamed Zhang said.

"In the first few minutes of the game, Dortmund's offensive situation cannot be opened for the time being. The fast attack that relied on the dual core of Royce and Gotze before will not work when it is caught in a positional battle. Let's see if Dortmund has any good solutions?" said the host surnamed Zhan.

Nearly 20 minutes passed in the first half, and neither side had a few attacks.Dortmund's ball possession rate is as high as 68%, and the entire field looks at Dortmund's players in possession of the ball.

Coach Klopp on the sidelines was also frowning, thinking about countermeasures.Li Feng, who was sitting on the bench, knew Coach Koeman too well.Coach Koeman is actually a very conservative coach in his heart, so in the face of such a big competition, he usually focuses on defense.If once fell into a disadvantage, Feyenoord's defense will fall apart.
