Grassroots Glory

God...goooooooa1!!!

The sudden change in the score also surprised Marcel Leif, but his subsequent reaction was still very professional. As a commentator, of course we must focus on the goal scorers at this time.

No. 17 in Freiburg, netg-fei (Chen Pengfei)... Oh, let me call him Chen, after all, the Chinese name is too convoluted, haha! He is nineteen years old this year, and this is his first Bundesliga season. Speaking of which, like Zhou, he comes from as far away as China. He has also experienced the university league. He is also the main winger in the Darmstadt u19 youth team and the first team. Last year Darmstadt reached the German Cup In the semi-finals, he contributed three assists and one goal. After Zhou Zhou, he may be the next Chinese young man worth looking forward to. In addition, Hannover 96 also has a Chinese goalkeeper who has played in the German Cup. very nice……

Marcel Leff showed a very high professional quality to this introduction. Obviously, they had done a lot of homework on the key players on both sides of the match. After all, Chen Pengfei was not as famous as Zhou Tiancheng. It was not so easy to find out about him in the public media.

Chen Pengfei's goal caused some fans in front of the domestic TV to get into a tangle. If it ends with this score, Chinese player Chen Pengfei rides thousands of miles alone to defeat the defending champion, such a headline is very encouraging from the standpoint of ordinary Chinese fans. It proves that Zhou Tiancheng is not the only one who can support the appearance of the young generation of Chinese football!

But these entangled fans are all fans of Zhou Tiancheng, so they still have a small selfish thought in their hearts: It is best for Zhou Tiancheng to turn the tide at the last moment, so that the result will be perfect.

At the last moment, Magath replaced the highest-level Altintop among the three forwards. In fact, when he was chatting with Jiang Hao and Matip, Magath stared at him for nearly a minute. He was thinking about whether to make a strange move. After all, Jiang Hao's speed was just right for the current situation, and the opponent certainly didn't know much about him.

After a brief struggle, Magath gave up such an idea. It is better to take it step by step. At this time, a heavy responsibility is entrusted. Of course, it may get better and better if it is done well, and it will soar into the sky. But if the performance is mediocre, whether Jiang Hao's mentality will be affected when he plays again, Magath can't guarantee. He can see that Jiang Hao is a person with a strong desire for self-demand and performance on the court.

However, at the last moment, Altintop's appearance did not play a big role. Freiburg, who had a one-goal lead, shrunk more resolutely. A central defender has been added to the defense.

Now Freiburg is completely a 5-4-1 bus, and even the defensive midfielder Banovic's position is often similar to the depth of the central defender. It is not wrong to say that it is 6-3-1. The purpose of the opponent still keeping one person in the forward line is to hope that when the ball occasionally kicks into Schalke's backcourt, someone can take the ball and stay as long as possible in Schalke's backcourt.

Now time is Freiburg's friend, and all tactical arrangements are designed to exhaust the final game time.

Of course, Freiburg's move to delay time was naturally booed by the fans of the home team Schalke. Any tactics of lying on the grass are normal. Even just after 85 minutes of the game, the Freiburg striker's first reaction when he received the ball in the frontcourt Just to the corner flag.

In this regard, Chinese fans often criticize domestic games for using all means to delay time, which is actually a bit wronged. In the global professional arena, when strength cannot guarantee a steady win, all players will try their best to opportunistically.

In fact, knowing how to procrastinate is also a valuable quality. The kind of behavior that leads the score and does not take it to the corner flag, but also dribbles the ball, fires anti-aircraft guns outside the penalty area, and gives people a chance to kill, is truly brainless.

In this case, it becomes very difficult for Schalke to score goals, and the defense line shrinks too tightly. As long as Zhou Tiancheng has the momentum to attack the goal around the penalty area,

At least two players stretched their feet or fell to the ground to block the hole.

...

In the fourth minute of stoppage time, Schalke made the last corner kick in O4, Altintop's header went over the crossbar, and the referee's final whistle blew.

The home fans didn't immediately walk towards the exit, many people left their seats, stood up and stared blankly at the field.

It was the Freiburg players and coaching staff in dark brown jerseys who celebrated wildly on the field, not the great home team Schalke O4 in their minds.

In particular, Chen Pengfei, the culprit who caused the loss, was surrounded by his teammates. Without preparing champagne, the teammates took out the mineral water bottles in their backpacks and poured water on his head. The Schalke fans felt even more heartbroken.

His own home field has become someone else's celebration field. This kind of scene has never happened in the whole season of last year.

In the commentary booth, Marcel Leff sighed with emotion: The super upset! The newly promoted Freiburg actually ended Schalke's 30-game unbeaten home game and 14-game winning streak that began last season. No one would have thought , although football is exciting because it is unpopular, it is too cold...

Sitting at home and losing a game that should not have been lost, Magath naturally had to face some doubts. After the game, the Gelsenkirchen media naturally stood on the side of the team and asked Magath whether it was because of Zhou Tiancheng. Because of his height, he hastily put him on the front line, judging from the scene. This is typical of self-defeating martial arts. Zhou Tiancheng's contribution rate in the forward position is obviously not as good as that in the midfield.

However, Magath disagreed with this statement: Is it wrong for Zhou to be a striker if he doesn't score a goal? Goals are one of the important indicators to measure a striker. But Zhou's style of play today is implementing my tactics. He today The task is not to score goals, but to pass the ball in series to attack. We can only say that we were unlucky if we didn’t score. If I arrange a pure shooter task for Zhou, I believe he can complete it. The threatening header is proof of that.

Don't look at Magath who usually puts on a straight face in front of the players and makes people feel majestic and inviolable, but in front of the media, he behaves very protective.

The Gelsenkirchen media may listen to Magath's explanation, because Schalke o4 is the only glory of the city, but other media are different, they only look at the results.

Schalke lost and got zero seals, and Zhou Tiancheng's shooting data dropped significantly.

There is an article to do here. There are endless voices of comments.

[Picture: The midfielder played forward, and Magath made the biggest upset of the season. 】

[Süddeutsche Zeitung: Inefficient Schalke, the season's decline began when Zhou Tiancheng played forward! 】

[Kicker Magazine: Tactical error or ability problem? Data comparison to see Bundesliga No. 1 midfielder Zhou Tiancheng's striker...]

Some of the comments from well-known German media are direct and some are tactful. Most of them point to Magath’s formation. Of course, some media represented by Kicker magazine feel that Zhou Tiancheng’s efficiency this season is not as good as last season. He was so brilliant when he was just a fledgling, and he only scored one goal after playing four rounds in the league, which completely did not match the performance of scoring goals in the opening stage of last season, and then began to question his ability—maybe he was not that strong, but just last season He had just debuted in the professional arena this season, and everyone didn't know him well.

The German media who say so think they have a basis. Looking at the world football, there are countless stars who drive high and low, and Brazilian star Denilson is a typical example. At the beginning of his career, he attracted people with his excellent dribbling skills and gorgeous style of play. He won the America's Cup and the Confederations Cup consecutively. He was also the best player in the Confederations Cup. Joining Real Betis with a world-record value at the time made great contributions to the team's return to La Liga, and also won the King's Cup once (2004-05 season), but the long-term stay away from the top arenas such as the Champions League also made it difficult for the team to return to La Liga. He fell extremely fast. Although he went to the World Cup in 2002, he was only a marginal figure in the top five-star Brazil team. After leaving Real Betis, Denilson played for France, and even played for the Saudi League and the American Major League. Later in his career, he was displaced.

Now, some German media seem to want to use this example to prove that Zhou Tiancheng's career trajectory will be the same. This season's data decline is just the beginning.

There are many such voices outside of Gelsenkirchen, and more than a dozen media outlets have been successfully brought into rhythm by Kicker magazine. Although adapting to the wind is almost a common feature of the news media industry, in this regard, the Chinese media is even more so.

But I have to say that the Germans and even the Europeans still don't believe that the Chinese can play football well, so when Zhou Tiancheng was focused on research and the data contribution was not so high, there were so many voices who made trouble—this is why Right, the Chinese are still more suitable for table tennis.

Another interesting thing is that on the big news of Schalke's o4 loss, the Dortmund media suddenly lost their voices collectively as if they had disappeared. No matter the news about Schalke is good or bad, the Dortmund media always come out with two weird words. When this unpopular news spreads all over Germany, they actually take the initiative to weaken their sense of presence. This is obviously abnormal!

The biggest reason is that Dortmund also lost at the same time, and it was still a big score. Lost to Bayern 1:5 at home in the German National Derby!

After losing so badly, it is natural to keep a low profile. Otherwise, this is not just joining in the fun, but rushing to get your face close to make people slap.

...

Brother Cheng, these media are really too much. Everyone has a bad game or two. When you score a lot, you all come to join in the fun. Now you are in trouble. The degree of change is even more exaggerated than Sichuan Opera. They simply I don’t know how difficult it is for a midfielder to switch to a striker, what kind of trick is it?” Jiang Hao felt unfair for Zhou Tiancheng when he saw the media’s unfavorable remarks on Zhou Tiancheng.

After Jiang Hao finished speaking, he turned his head and found that Zhou Tiancheng was looking at him with playful eyes, and he was immediately confused: Brother Cheng, did I make a mistake?

No. Zhou Tiancheng replied, I thought you were secretly happy... If the devil doesn't arrange for me to play forward in the next match, your chances will be even greater.

Uh...Of course I want to play, but I don't want to be so dark in my heart, ha! The team has no shortage of forwards, and the devil doesn't seem to like me.

Actually, I don't care what the media say at all. They see me as a joke, so let them look after me. I don't have a penny, as long as the coach still trusts me.

Zhou Tiancheng said while arranging his backpack, and specifically checked whether his air ticket was in the backpack.

At the beginning of September, the next two weeks will be the FIFA international match day. Zhou Tiancheng will return to China to participate in the warm-up match against the Saudi team.

Haozi, practice hard. Don't think about whether the head coach likes it or not. When you have the ability, you will naturally have a chance, and although it is difficult to play in Schalke, as long as you grasp the limited opportunities, it is easy to take the lead. Compared with Freiburg, It's much easier for a team like Hannover to get ahead.

Haha, Brother Cheng, believe it or not, I told Dapeng and Xiaotao in the group that you hacked them.

...

With Zhou Tiancheng returning to China to help out, the difficulty for the Chinese team to win at home has been greatly reduced. Even in the case of conceding a goal first, Zhou Tiancheng assisted Hao Junmin, Wang Xinxin and Gao Lin to pull three goals in succession.

At this node, the Saudi team was chosen to warm up, mainly because the Chinese team will face Lebanon, also from West Asia, in the Asian Cup qualifiers. From a technical point of view, Saudi Arabia, which has long been ranked first in Asia, is naturally stronger than Lebanon.

Gao Hongbo was not completely satisfied with the team's performance after the game. In his words, the offensive end played what it should have, but there are still problems with the defensive line.

However, since the announcement of the national team roster, the domestic media only cared about one thing: why is Zhou Tiancheng the only one who came back?

When will Chen Pengfei from Freiburg and Ming Tao from Hannover be shortlisted?

Gao Hongbo did not respond directly to this, but said: The door of the national team is open to any player, but we must make sure that the player's condition can meet the needs of international competitions. When it is time to enter the national team, the coaching staff will naturally not ignore it. You can recall when Zhou Tiancheng joined the national team.

When Gao Hongbo reminded him, many reporters immediately realized that it was true. With Zhou Tiancheng's brilliant performance, he was called up by the national team after playing in the Bundesliga for half a season.

Of course, the fans are very supportive of Gao Hongbo's approach, at least it proves that the coaching staff of this national team did not make decisions on the basis of brains.

After finishing the national team match, Zhou Tiancheng flew back to Germany that night.

Back at the club, the Champions League group stage will start next, but what is left for Magath is a main lineup that has returned from their respective national teams and consumes a lot of energy.

Although there were no injuries or stoppages, in this state, you can basically only display the combat effectiveness of the disabled team. The key is that there is not much time to adjust. Schalke O4 must rush to the away game within four days.

To this end, Magath specially gave the team a day off, and then the whole team set off for an expedition to London.
