long live football

"After the intermission, players from both sides stood on the court again."

"Munich 1860 and Bielefeld both made substitutions. Auston replaced Sven Bender with the Chinese player Shao. The tactics have not changed, but Bielefeld has used striker Artur Vergenia. Lake replaced defender Roberto, and the team's tactics changed from the traditional 442 to the offensive 433. Obviously, Bielefeld will strengthen their offense in the second half."

"The score on the field is 0:1 now, and the only goal contributed is the Spanish player Javier Portillo, so the visiting team of Munich 1860 is currently leading."

"Bieelefeld is in a backward position in the game. It stands to reason that they shouldn't be so impatient to weaken the defense and strengthen the frontcourt attack... But they can't do anything. It is not difficult for them to break into the Munich 1860 penalty area. When five or six shots on target didn't lead to a single goal, if I were the manager of Bielefeld, I would try to add another striker and take the risk."

Depending on the same 433 formation of both teams, the game was not dull, but no matter how many dazzling attacks on the pitch, the goals were by no means too many.Especially for Bielefeld's midfielders, no matter how tricky their shooting angles are, the tall man in front of the goal seems to be able to grab the football from any dead corner as long as he reaches out.

"Three strikers, plus Michael Fink, a very good attacking midfielder, Bielefeld's strength up front cannot be underestimated. Sterman went forward, took the ball...he didn't hesitate at all, and after receiving the ball, he went straight into the Munich 1860 penalty area!"

"A beautiful acceleration...Westman raised his foot...What a precise volley!"

The football is like lightning, and it slides towards the goal of Munich 1860 like a sharp arrow.

The moment it was about to get into the goal, a hand suddenly appeared in the air.

It was a very delicate-looking hand (at least from a distance) with only a heavy blue glove on it.

No one believed that such a thin hand could stop a high-speed flying football.

The weight of the football itself, coupled with the force it carries (everyone can see how hard Westerman volleyed), can probably break this hand-many Bielefeld fans are thinking like this, While shouting full of tyrannical emotion: "Knock him! Knock him! Give this kid some color!"

But a few seconds later, the hand stood firmly on the spot, while the black and white football was falling from mid-air, and finally rolled helplessly onto the grass in front of the door.

"Oh." The commentator didn't even make a sound of surprise this time. He said dryly in the most bland voice: "The Bielefeld striker did another useless effort. Their luck today is really bad." gone."

Although the commentator blamed the home team's bad luck for the repeated misses of the Bielefeld forwards, the fans had their own ideas.

Bielefeld fans are going to hate the 1860 Munich goalkeeper now, really.

……

As a goalkeeper, when teammates in other positions are all working hard towards the goal of averaging [-] meters per game, as long as they can stay vigilant and patrol around the goal every once in a while, they will be considered as doing their duty.

For example, the goalkeeper of Bielefeld, his performance is very "standard and correct": he is firmly nailed to the front of the goal line and does not move, his eyes are looking forward to observe the situation of the whole field, and he only moves when the opponent's striker pushes into the penalty area. one time.

Compared with Bielefeld's goalkeeper, Lambert Koch is undoubtedly much more active.

The youngster, who just turned 18, hasn't let himself be idle since the start of the game. He has been walking (albeit only from one end of the goal to the other) and is tense when he dribbles the ball into the half from the opponent's player. Tighten your nerves and adjust your angle and position according to the opponent's position at any time.

This kind of performance that is always ready won him unanimous praise from 1860 Munich and neutral fans, and of course, crazy boos from opponent fans.

Behind the Munich 1860 goal is the home fans stand. The Bielefeld fans who are so close to Koch began to boo strongly as soon as they saw the Lions goalkeeper walking around.

They stared at the blue figure and mocked: "Lambert Koch must have ADHD, look at how he can't sit still!"

"Since you like to move so much, why don't you go out of the restricted area and go outside to have a look?"

"It didn't take long for him to get tired, and he was like a puddle of mud in the goal area, easily broken by our forwards."

But no matter how desperately the Bielefeld fans hoped, their wishes have not been fulfilled.

No attack could break through the defensive line named "Lambert Koch" and rewrite the numbers on the scoreboard for Bielefeld.

The cruel reality made the Bielefeld fans angry, and they booed louder and harder when Koch made a save.

It seems that the sound waves can be turned into sharp swords, poking holes in the goalkeeper of Munich 1860.

When the game progressed to the 70th minute, the Bielefeld forwards who had been working hard and running finally felt tired. Their footsteps began to slow down, and their expressions were not as aggressive as they were at the beginning. Some even felt a little helpless.

The Bielefeld fans panicked, fearing that their players would surrender to reality before them, so they shouted cheers every moment their team took the ball, trying to encourage the players not to give up and keep going .

A few minutes later, seeing that the incentive didn't work, they instead booed and cursed the players of Munich 1860, trying to weaken the morale of the Lions with the momentum of the home team.

Especially in the stands behind the 1860 goal in Munich, the fans here are more excited. They have witnessed more directly and clearly how Bielefeld's offense was blocked again and again than anyone in the stands in the stadium. , and their anger is stronger than others.

At first it was just boos, then some yelling, then some personal insults, and finally, food started falling from the sky, picked up by angry fans and thrown into the stadium.

The management of Bundesliga stadiums is not as strict as that of Premier League stadiums. They do not prohibit fans from bringing food into the stadium.It is well known that German fans like to jump and shout while watching the football. Watching a 90-minute game is very exhausting, so when the fans go to the scene to watch the game, they often bring enough food——bread, Fruit, hamburgers, hot dogs, pizza, sausages and even beer.

Some of the food was stopped by the guard nets around the stands, but some of the food that was easier to throw flew over the guard nets and fell near the stadium.

A banana flew over the fence in front of countless fans, and then landed near the halftime baseline of 1860 Munich.

This golden and attractive object inspired a Bielefeld fan. He looked at the banana lying on the turf, then at Koch in front of the goal, and suddenly shouted to his friends: "Look!" That kid's hair! Does he look like a golden monkey?"

This fresh insult really pleased the die-hard Bielefeld fans, who laughed and said: "Like it! It's like it!"

"Monkeys and bananas are a perfect match!"

"Who's got any bananas? Give me one! I'll make this kid eat his fill for the day!"

I don’t know who made the first move. The Bielefeld fans in the stands behind the 1860 Munich goal looked for fruits everywhere, especially things shaped like bananas, and then passed them to the strong fans. Toss outside.

It rained bananas at the Alm Stadium.

……

Carl didn't realize at first that the things that appeared on the field were bananas.

He did see angry Bielefeld fans throwing things into the field, but he thought it was mineral water or a lighter or something - a little more valuable, and maybe a mobile phone or even a car key.

The furious fans didn't care how valuable the things they got were, they just picked up the closest ones and threw them into the field just to vent their anger, and then realized how much they had lost. Only when you have a lot of money, you will regret it.

You can find everything in the guard net in front of the stands, jerseys, sneakers, food, fruit, beer. Karl also heard that after a game, the stadium security found a broken laptop in the guard net.

Anyone could be booed and thrown by the fans during the game, so Karl didn't pay much attention to it at first. He was just worried that the brainless fans would throw unopened beer, filled mineral water bottles or other things into the field. Such things, these things are inherently heavy, coupled with the gravity effect of falling from a high altitude, may even kill people.

"Don't hit anyone." Just as he was so worried, Karl looked towards his own half, and happened to see bananas everywhere near the goal.

There are countless golden bananas lying in a mess all over the half of Munich 1860, especially near the goal where Koch is located, which is the hardest hit area.

Some of them may have rotted when thrown (or fell on the ground), leaving the skin open to reveal the bright yellow flesh inside, which is as slimy as melted cheese.

Carl frowned, feeling a little baffled: Bananas are the favorite food of African orangutans (monkeys), so when many fans in Europe discriminate against black or yellow players, they throw bananas into the stadium, implying that they are monkeys. mean.But why are Bielefeld fans throwing bananas at the goal?Is it trying to slip someone up, or is it just because they're carrying a lot of bananas today?

At this moment, various shouts sounded in the stadium: "Monkeys eat bananas!" "Hey, golden monkeys!" "Koch, look at the bananas!"

These shouts were not neat and messy, but the volume was loud enough for the entire audience to hear clearly.

"Bieelefeld defender Schuler made a header, and he passed the ball to..." The commentator was stunned for a moment when he heard the clear shouts in the stadium, and forgot to continue explaining the game.

Carl lowered his face and went straight to the fourth official: "I request that the game be stopped immediately until those bananas are cleared from the field and the Bielefeld fans stop insulting my players!"

The fourth official hesitated and looked towards the court: "The game was not disturbed by these things..."

"Can't you see the rubbish that's all over half the pitch? So many bananas, what if a player slips and falls?"

The fourth official nodded to Carl: "I'll go and communicate with the referee."

After 2 minutes, the game was suspended, and the referee signaled the cleaners to clean up the court.

There was no rubbish in Bielefeld's half. Everything was thrown in the half of Munich 1860. When the cleaners carried the trash cans to the field, Koch, Jankel, Dante and other Lions players began to turn around. He lowered his head to pick up something, and other players near the midfield saw it and ran over to help.

Koch has the most bananas around him, so he also picks up the most, almost holding his whole arms.

Behind him, whistles were heard from the Bielefeld fans stands, and there was a loud laugh: "Look at the way he bends over and bows his head!" "Monkey picking bananas hahahaha!"

Karl looked around at the Bielefeld fan stands, the chairman's box and the coach's bench. His eyes began to tinge with anger from the faces and movements of those people laughing.

The unusual atmosphere in the stadium affected many people. Ozil and Lars ran to Koch and asked him for something: "Give us the banana, those bastards are laughing at you."

Koch glanced at his teammates, then straightened up suddenly, wrapped his left arm around the banana in his arms, pulled out his right hand from inside, and after using the power of his mouth to push the outer skin away, he faced the Bielefeld fans stand and opened it slowly. mouth, took a big bite.

"Well, it's sweet." Koch commented while chewing.

The eyeballs of Lars and Ozil almost popped out.

Koch raised his chest to his teammates again: "I got so much for free, do you want one?"

The Almstadt was silent.

Carl burst out laughing.
