Chapter 419 The situation is clear
In the No.30 round of the league, Hoffenheim will challenge Wolfsburg, which is ranked second, in an away game. The gap between the two teams is only one point. If Wolfsburg wins, they will be able to surpass Hoffenheim.

Even Leverkusen and Bayern Munich are paying attention to this game. Of course, they hope that these two teams can fight for both sides, so that they are only three or four points away from the top of the list.

It would be best if the main players of both sides could get two, three, four, five, six or seven injuries in this game, and they won't win in the last four rounds, that would be great!

Originally, among the four teams, Bayern's situation was the worst, because they had the least points, but after five consecutive victories, they have quietly caught up.

On the contrary, Leverkusen, which was originally in the best situation, was not good. They were three points behind Hoffenheim, and their results were the worst in the final stage of the league. They lost all the games against Hoffenheim and Wolfsburg. This was a huge blow to the morale of the team.

They also have an away game against Bayern in the penultimate round. If they lose this game, there is really no hope of winning the championship. At the same time, their pressure is also the greatest among the four teams. As a strong team, they have never won the German top league championship. This makes their players unconsciously think that maybe they just don't have the chance to win the championship...

The result of this round of competition made Leverkusen and Bayern Munich both satisfied and regretful.

They each defeated their opponents and scored three points, while Hoffenheim drew Wolfsburg with a [-]-[-] draw in the away game, and the lead was narrowed.

There are still four rounds left in the league, but the points for the top four in the Bundesliga are still not separated, and it has become even more chaotic.

Hoffenheim is first with 64 points, Wolfsburg and Bayer Leverkusen are tied for second with 63 points, and Bayern is with 62 points.

In the past seasons, the most common situation was that Bayern was thriving, and then the two teams were entangled until the last moment. Like the current situation where the top four are entangled and no one can take the advantage, it is really the first time.In the following four rounds of competition, there is no shortage of direct matches between Hoffenheim and Bayern at home, and Bayern and Bayer Leverkusen at home. The result of any game may have the greatest impact on the trend of the league.

********************************************
After returning from the away game, Rangnick was very happy.

Taking a point from Wolfsburg's home court is already a pretty good result. Rangnick led the team to the Volkswagen Arena for a point. He calmly analyzed the current situation of the team and concluded that a draw with Wolfsburg would still lead the opponent by one point. The gap between Leverkusen and Bayern is more than three points. Even if they narrow the gap, Hoffenheim will still have the lead in points.

One point may seem inconspicuous, but in the sprint stage of the league, one point can solve big problems!Just like China's college entrance examination, sometimes one score does not know how many competitors can be overwhelmed!
In the last four rounds of the league, Hoffenheim has two away games and two home games. The next two rounds of the league are against Cologne at home and Bielefeld away. As long as Hoffenheim can hold these six points in their hands, the situation should be clear after the last two rounds!

In this way, the penultimate round of the home game against Bayern Munich will be an important game that determines the trend of the entire season!

Hoffenheim can firmly hold the initiative in their own hands. With this advantage, they don't need to look at others like they did last season!

This is important and crucial.If the fate of a team cannot be controlled by themselves and depends on others to give it, then how can their players have the ability and confidence to win honors!
In the next round of the league, the opponents of the four teams capable of winning the championship are not very strong. Hoffenheim will play against Cologne at home, Bayern will play against Cottbus at home, Leverkusen will play against Bielefeld at home, and only Wolfsburg will have stronger opponents. They will challenge Stuttgart in an away game.

The Rhein-Neckar stadium is full again, and there is nothing that can stimulate attendance more than a chance for the team to win the league championship. Although the population of Hoffenheim is only a few thousand people, and even the population of Sinsheim where they are currently located is only over 3, but with the excitement created by Hoffenheim one after another in the game, the residents of the Rhein-Neckar area where they are located have become loyal fans of Hoffenheim!
Apart from residents from Hoffenheim and Sinsheim, most of the people who come to Rhein-Neckar Stadium to watch football every weekend are fans from the surrounding cities of Heidelberg and Heilbronn. This area was originally a traditional football desert in Germany. Now there is a Hoffenheim. The fans in this area quickly found their spiritual sustenance!
Cologne was originally a traditional strong team in the Bundesliga. They used to be the team that won the most domestic championships except Bayern Munich. However, in the past ten years, they have been reduced to an out-and-out underdog.

Amidst the shouts of [-] Hoffenheim fans, Cologne resisted for half an hour, and then their defense collapsed under the ferocious blow of Hoffenheim.

Long Bisheng opened the scoring for the first time—this is his No.20 four goals in the league. Now he is unshakable at the top of the Bundesliga scorer list. The goals of Zeko and Gomez, who are ranked second and third, are only 21 and [-]. With four rounds left in the league, although it cannot be said that there is no chance to catch up, but the hope is not too great.

What's more, the closer to the final stage of the league, the more likely Long Bisheng will score.

After receiving Ibisevic's pass, Long Bisheng flicked the ball to the side, dodged the opponent's defense, and then immediately volleyed from the penalty area line, and the ball flew into the goal of Cologne like a cannonball!

After taking the lead, Hoffenheim began to grasp the situation on the field. Anyway, at this point, the goal difference is not too big, and the difference between a small victory by one goal and a big victory by five goals is not too big.If Cologne wants to equalize the score, they have to attack. At that time, through the frontcourt Long Bisheng and Ibisevic's ball, Marin's speed is enough for Cologne to drink a pot.

Cologne did not attack, and Hoffenheim was happy to kill time while saving the players' energy.

In the second half, Hoffenheim scored another goal, which completely defeated the fighting spirit of Cologne, which had successfully relegated.

After winning Cologne, Hoffenheim got good news—finally some teams started to fall behind—Wolfsburg lost 65-[-] at the feet of Stuttgart in the away game.

With the Champions League knockout game involving energy in the second half, Bayern's overall advantages began to play out, and Hoffenheim's performance was not inferior to them at all. On the contrary, Leverkusen and Wolfsburg, who were focused on the league, failed to withstand the pressure!
In the next round, Bayern will face Leverkusen at home, which will be another good opportunity for Hoffenheim to expand their advantage!
If they beat Bielefeld, Bayern has a little mistake at home, maybe they can expand their advantage to four points, then even if they lose to Bayern at home, they still have a chance to win the league championship trophy in the last game!

No.30 played away to Bielefeld in the second round, and more than [-] Hoffenheim fans spontaneously went to watch the game away!
Due to the small number of Hoffenheim local fans, their away games are often worthy of the name. For example, in the second round of the Champions League, there were only a few hundred Hoffenheim fans who went to the Nou Camp to watch the game.
On May 2000th, more than [-] Hoffenheim fans turned Bielefeld's home stadium Alm into their home stadium!

The situation of winning the Bundesliga this season is unprecedentedly fierce, and the situation of relegation is equally fierce. With three rounds left in the league, no team has been relegated in advance. There are at least five or six teams behind.

Absolute strength is very important when aspiring to relegation meets a society that is aspiring to win the championship and has the same fighting spirit!
The players of Bielefeld worked hard, but they didn't have a shooter like Ibisevic, a side attacker like Marin, an excellent organizer like Eduardo, an excellent defender like Li Jie, and more importantly, they didn't have a Long Bisheng who had never been so eager for victory and honor!

Dragon must win again!When the two sides were stalemate on the field, he opened the door to victory for Hoffenheim with a thunderous header!
In the second half, Eduardo's cold shot in front of the penalty area established the victory!

And in other games, Wolfsburg draw!They were five points away from Hoffenheim!Leverkusen lost two games in a row, they were smashed away by Bayern!Seven points behind Hoffenheim!This result means that Leverkusen missed the championship again!
Hoffenheim's only opponent is Bayern!
