Chapter 380 Huo Cun Miracle Must At Least Enter the Group Stage

(Thanks brothers, thanks a hundred thousand, got the No.5 classification, and got rid of the seventh hat.)
In this round of the UEFA Champions League group match, the three teams in the Bundesliga, Bremen, Stuttgart, and Schalke 04 all lost, which frustrated the Bundesliga fans and the media. However, in the knockout match before the UEFA Cup group match, the German team Achieved a record of complete victory. The Hamburg team beat Bulgaria's Litex 3-1 in the away game. Leverkusen defeated Portugal's Liala 2:1 at the Bayer Arena. Hoffenheim [-] :[-] Repelled the Bucharest Rapid team, Bayern Munich, the default champion of the UEFA Cup, which is widely expected by the outside world, only won Lisbon Bilenense [-]-[-] at home.

Although the Hamburg team only scored one goal, they did not allow their opponents to score an away goal. After Bulgaria, a draw and a small loss with a goal could allow them to advance.Leverkusen leads by two goals, so there is basically no worry about advancing. Bayern also won [-]-[-], but there is no need to discuss their advancement. If even reaching the UEFA Cup group stage needs to be discussed, all Bayern Munich players A complete jump down from the Alps.

The most unfavorable of the four teams is Hoffenheim. Their promotion situation is the most complicated. Although they won at home, they only scored two goals and allowed their opponents to score an away goal. After Romania, the Rapid Bucharest team can eliminate them with only a 1:0. Hoffenheim is neither offensive nor defensive.

After the game, among the [-] games in the first round of the UEFA Cup, among the [-] teams, UEFA's official website talked heavily about Hoffenheim, because the rise of Hoffenheim is in line with the newly elected European team. "All members of European football are equal. There is no such thing as a small club and there is no so-called big club." This is an egalitarian policy program.

"Hoffenheim won a victory in the UEFA Cup for the first time. Before that, they also won the German Cup and the league for six consecutive victories. The league beat Bayern Munich to the top of the table. It is a miracle that Hoffenheim is a young and fearless team, their average age is only 3000 years old, with local players as the team, coupled with the outstanding performance of foreign talented players, it is today's Results. Among the UEFA Cup opponents of the four Bundesliga teams, Rapid Bucharest is the strongest, but at the Karl Benz Stadium, Hoffenheim turned their opponents into a Bundesliga second team. Li Huan shined in this game shot, he opened the scoring with a signature free kick, then assisted a goal, and let the opponent's defender get a red card. In this game, Li Huan showed great potential. With time, he will become a great player. He has been in European football for a long time. There are no other Asian players who are eye-catching. The last one in the Bundesliga was Cha Bum-geun, and the last one in the Serie A was Hidetoshi Nakata, but Li Huan obviously has more superstar potential than the two of them."

Not only did UEFA look at Hoffenheim differently, the Hoffenheim game shocked the media of other countries, because in the previous Champions League matches, the Bundesliga team performed too badly, and the Premier League and La Liga teams looked down on the Bundesliga. , I feel that Hoffenheim has won a few games while the major traditional strong teams have not woken up from their vacations. Romania's Rapid Bucharest team is considered a good team, but at Hoffenheim's home court, the leased stadium was almost turned into a Bundesliga team. Fight back.If it weren't for Hoffenheim's poor luck, the Bucharest Rapid team would have to return home with at least four or five conceded goals.

The British "Sun" commented after the game, "Hoffenheim continued their good form in the Bundesliga. In their European debut, they defeated the incoming Bucharest Rapids 2:1. The next round of the away game won the opportunity. In this game, Li Huan, known as Xiao Li Feidao, made a pass and a shot, and became the team's winning hero. Under the leadership of the Chinese defender, Hoffenheim played in the The European arena continues to create miracles. Now no one knows when they will stop winning. Maybe only Bayern, Schalke 04 and Werder Bremen can beat them in the Bundesliga. Inexperienced, the 2:1 score advantage is too weak, it can only be regarded as leading by half a goal, and the next game in Romania will definitely be a fierce battle."

Spain's "World Sports News" exclaimed: "In addition to Bremen, there is another crazy offensive team in the Bundesliga. Even in the defensive European arena, Hoffenheim still does not change their offense. The style, the full-court oppressive style of play made the Romanians almost collapse, two goals, two goal posts and countless shots made the Romanian champion feel ashamed in front of the 3000-strong country team. The score of 2:1 is not true Reflecting the advantage of Hoffenheim in the game, if they can also play at this level in the home court of Rapid Bucharest in the next game, there will be no problem in advancing to the group stage. In this game, Hoffenheim's right back Li Huan once again He showed the demeanor of a star, and made the European forwards and midfielders feel ashamed with one pass and one shot. As we suggested earlier, Barcelona should consider introducing Li Huan during the winter break. The Chinese defender is the most suitable defender for Barcelona in the world. They can make Barcelona beat European invincibles, and the Chinese can also bring countless Chinese fans to Barcelona, ​​and the benefits brought to the development of the Asian market are not only at the competitive level."

Because the UEFA Champions League is too sad and Bayern can only play in the UEFA Cup, the German media focused on the UEFA Cup. "Bild" believes that there is no Bundesliga team except Bayern that can compete in the UEFA Champions League. Competitive teams, Schalke 04, Stuttgart, and Werder Bremen are only a little stronger than other teams, far inferior to the super strength of the top four in the Premier League, the duo of La Liga and the three heroes of Serie A.Dortmund, the only one that won the European championship title, fell early, and now the German team can only start with the UEFA Cup if they want to win honor in Europe.In the competition of mid-range teams, the Bundesliga teams still have a great advantage.This year it happens that Bayern is going to play in the UEFA Cup, and maybe some teams playing in the UEFA Champions League will fall into the UEFA Cup. The German team should win the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup and turn the UEFA Cup into a civil war in the Bundesliga.

Since Hoffenheim is a newly promoted team, although they have won five consecutive league victories and also won this European game, "Bild" still believes that relegation may distract them a lot of energy. It's too big. The chief commentator of "Bild" Stratten commented on Hoffenheim: "Hoffenheim is young and has just stepped into the Bundesliga and European arenas. They are full of fighting spirit and passion, but fighting on the third line , the arduous schedule and strong opponents will reduce their passion and fighting spirit. At this time, the shortcomings of young people's lack of stamina and instability will be exposed. If they can't focus on one game, I assert that they have three fronts They will lose all of them. Of course, it does not mean that they will not even be able to avoid relegation, but that they will not achieve the record they expected. The UEFA Cup is changing, and the knockout after the group stage is too accidental. Hoffenheim should not take it The UEFA Cup is their main goal. They have already won the German Cup once. The freshness and hunger of the players is definitely not as good as last year. This year they should focus on the league. The goal proposed by coach Lannick is very good. First get 38 points for relegation, and then think about other things. If they can really do this, maybe next season they will appear in the European arena."

The comment of "Kicker" is still concise, "Hoffenheim has made a good start in the European war. The score of 2:1 is full of uncertainty. The game is far from over. Whether Hoffenheim can advance or not depends on their defenders Li Huan's performance."

"Rhine Neckar Zeitung" and "Mannheim Daily" used the rationality of the Germans to count and calculate after the game. In the history of the UEFA Cup, after the first leg of the home game was 2:1, how likely is it to advance. In the end, they It is concluded that the team that wins 2:1 at home has only a 40.00% promotion rate, which makes the reporter very pessimistic.

The reporter of "Mannheim Daily" believes that the UEFA Cup is a luxury for Hoffenheim now. They should focus on the Bundesliga. The next two opponents are Rostock and Schalke 04. Of these two teams, one is a newly promoted four-game losing streak. Now they are almost red-eyed and want to bite people in order to avoid relegation. Hoffenheim will not be easy to play against them.The other team is Schalke 04, who just lost to Valencia in the Champions League. They were not only the runner-up of the last league, but also eager to regain their form at home, and the game was even more difficult.Since qualifying in the UEFA Cup has become very difficult, they should not waste their energy.

"Rhine Neckar Zeitung" believes that Hoffenheim should make two-handed preparations, the league is the foundation, and the UEFA Cup game should not affect the league game no matter whether it wins or loses.It’s better to play as a substitute like last season’s German Cup. If you play well, you will go all out to win the championship. If you don’t play well, it will not affect the cause of the league. war.

Hoffenheim's head coach Rangnick gave a clear response to the comments from domestic and foreign media. He said: "Our goal is the league. The team is now preparing for the league games, but we must at least score in the UEFA Cup. In the group stage, we need to let European fans understand Hoffenheim. In the next game in Bucharest, we will still choose to attack. Attacking is our team’s eternal style of play and philosophy.”
