Chapter 57: The Golden Boy Challenges the Big Mac

Bayern Munich defeated Leverkusen in the away game, fully demonstrating the true strength of the Bundesliga giants.

The headline of the German Bild newspaper on the second day said: "When Bayern suffered an unprecedented bad start at the beginning of the season, everyone thought that Bayern Munich this season was over, but the winning streak before the winter break allowed them to jump to the league. Second, the German Cup 14 final that ended last night was even better than Leverkusen, which has remained unbeaten in the league this season...At this time, I just want to say one thing...Wolf is coming!"

Wolf is coming is the common headline of this issue of German mainstream media. This is not the so-called headline party, but Bayern Munich, which has rebounded strongly, does have such strength.

With Bayern Munich defeating league leaders Leverkusen on the field, more and more German media and mainstream European media believe that Bayern Munich will undisputedly beat Borussia Dortmund in the weekend league.

These reports made Dortmund fans very unhappy.

Isn't it just an away game against Leverkusen?

They are obviously focusing on the league, and they don't want to go further in the German Cup at all, otherwise they won't use a half of the main lineup.

When Tang Zheng saw these media reports that were not conducive to Dortmund's preparations, he also felt very uncomfortable, but he knew that in many cases, he needed to respond with strength.

The vigorous Tang Zheng shined in the DFB-Pokal 14 final at Westphalia 1un in the middle of the week. One shot and two passes were his answer sheets at home.

In the end, Dortmund relied on Tang Zheng's excellent performance to help Dortmund beat Hoffenheim, the biggest dark horse of last season, 4:1 at home.

From the moment the whistle blew for the end of the game, all the fans in Westphalia 1un chanted Tang Zheng's surname, especially in the sacred South Stand, where a huge poster was hung, which read: robsp; The general idea is: Fuck Bayern!

When Tang Zheng followed the field captain Weidenfeller around the field to thank the fans, he didn't make any particularly touching moves, he just gave a high thumbs up to the 25,000 fans in the south stand, and then moved his palms back and forth. Press down and end with the thumb pointing towards yourself.

The meaning I want to express is very obvious, that is to be calm, everything is up to me!

The response to Tang Zheng was naturally hysterical cries, deafening.

Countless Dortmund loyalists standing in the south stand, looking at the confident Tang Zheng, seem to feel that a future superstar of world football is slowly rising...

At the regular press conference after the game, Hoffenheim coach Rangnick did not hesitate to praise him. He said: "There is no doubt that the winner of the Golden Boy Award in the new European state has great potential. The Cup 14 final will determine the result of the game, and I believe Dortmund will also beat Bayern Munich under his leadership in the weekend's focus match at the Allianz Arena!"

Rangnik had such a high opinion of Tang Zheng that the local media in Dortmund did not react to it.

Süddeutsche Zeitung, which supports Bayern Munich, immediately stood up and questioned Rangnick's words: "Is there something wrong with your expression? Why do you think that Dortmund, which defeated Hoffenheim, will win Bayern Munich away?"

Lannik lifted his glasses frame, smiled, and faintly said two words: "Intuition."

Next, the home team accepted the routine press conference after the game. The head coach Klopp faced reporters and said that Rangnick was optimistic about Dortmund's weekend league. He said bluntly: "Why not?"

A very simple sentence expresses Dortmund's ambition to go to the Allianz Arena.

In the 22nd round of the Bundesliga in the 20092010 season, there is only one focus match, that is, Bayern Munich vs. Dortmund, which is likely to enter the top three in the league this season, so the game time arranged by the German Football Association also takes care of the two teams.

Bayern's German Cup is played on Tuesday, while Dortmund's German Cup is played on Wednesday, and the league between Bayern and Dortmund is played at 5:30 pm on Saturday, which is 12:30 am on Sunday.

Although this time period did not particularly take care of the Bundesliga's largest overseas customer,

But considering that this day is the traditional Chinese Spring Festival, I was relieved.

How enjoyable it is to spend the Spring Festival and then watch a hearty German national derby?

Central 5 is also frantically promoting this Bundesliga focus match in the past few days at the end of the year. They gave the game a very nice name: Golden Boy Challenge Big Mac.

It has to be said that this title is very distinctive, and at the same time it raises Tang Zheng's compulsion to the pinnacle.

Of course, this wasn't a blind sales promotion by Central 5. Tang Zheng's performance this season was already very good, and he was also the double winner of the European Golden Boy Award and the South American Footballer of the Year award. He was fully worthy of this title.

From the end of the year to the present, Tang Zheng's appearance rate in China is very high, and he is the key promotion target of Nike in China. Nike stores all over the country have his large posters, so this Bundesliga will be very likely. Create new ratings.

According to the news from the staff of Central 5, the advertisements before and after the Bundesliga league were sold at sky-high prices.

At the same time, in order to show that CCTV attaches importance to this focus battle, CCTV 5 sent two ace commentators, Duan Xuan and He Wei, to Munich for on-site commentary.

On the second day after Dortmund defeated Hoffenheim, Yang 5 and his team arrived in Germany.

They did not stay overnight in Munich, but came to Dortmund.

Duan Xuan has come to Dortmund many times to make on-site comments, but he is also very familiar with some officials of the Dortmund club, and occasionally even meets familiar Dortmund fans on the street for a few words.

As a Bayern fan, he is now witnessing Tang Zheng's progress in the Bundesliga. He has gradually changed from a Bayern fan to a Dortmund fan, so seeing Dortmund fans will feel an inexplicable sense of intimacy.

It wasn't the first time He Wei came to Germany, but it was definitely the first time he came to Dortmund, Germany as a fan of Tang Zheng.

As soon as the team training in the Stobelari Training Center ended, the sports director Zork led the staff of Central 5 into the training ground.

They have only one goal, and that is Tang Zheng, the focus of the focus battle.

Tang Zheng and Duan Xuan were good friends in the past. It was the first time he met He Wei, but he didn't feel uncomfortable after hearing him explain the La Liga before, and he cooperated with the interview.

The weather in Germany in February is still relatively cold. For example, Schleswig-Holstein, the northernmost state of Germany, is still snowing. Dortmund, which is close to the southwestern part of Germany, has a good climate. Although there is no snow, the temperature is also a few degrees. In between, it is easy to catch a cold just after training, so the interview time is not long.

As the away game against Bayern Munich in the league draws closer, head coach Klopp and two assistant coaches Geri Kobvac and Peter Kravitz are becoming more and more nervous.

From a competitive perspective, this focus battle is proof that Dortmund itself has the strength to challenge the Bundesliga giants.

At the same time, Tang Zheng also needs to prove himself in the game, because he has never lost a game representing Dortmund. It can be said that he is the lucky star of Dortmund. Dortmund fans hope that Tang Zheng will be lucky.

Even if you don't beat the mighty Bayern at the Allianz Arena, at least you can't lose, otherwise you will stay away from the first group in the league.

Although the league championship is not Dortmund's goal this season, as the saying goes, soldiers who don't want to be generals are not good soldiers.

In the same way, a team that doesn't want to win doesn't deserve to be a great team at all.

Facing difficulties is what a strong team does.

Dortmund's technical and tactical play with Tang Zheng as the core has gradually taken shape after more than half a season of running-in, so Klopp did not make changes to the tactics before the game, which would make the game full of uncertainty. What players need is confidence .

Have the absolute confidence to defeat powerful enemies!

Especially the core players must have full confidence in winning the game!

The Dortmund team arrived at the hotel where they stayed in Munich. According to the usual practice, the whole team will have a meeting similar to a collective meeting before challenging the strong team away.

But this time is a little different from the past. After the whole team had dinner together, Klopp dragged him directly to the small conference room of the hotel.

However, what surprised Klopp was that Tang Zheng was already full of confidence, and even said to him: "Head, you never have to worry about me, because for me, the greater the pressure, the greater the motivation. Never afraid of any challenge, even against Bayern Munich."

Klopp's mouth was half open, and he couldn't close it for a long time.

About five minutes later, assistant coach Jerry Kobvac sat across from Klopp: "Hey Jurgen, how was the talk?"

"We are all too nervous, but Tang sees it the most thoroughly. I believe... this road trip, there may be unexpected surprises."

Klopp took a sip of the latte that was just served, tasted the bitterness in it, and said lightly.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Klopp held a team meeting in the hotel conference room according to the tradition he came to Dortmund.

This meeting was neither aimed at changes in our own skills and tactics, nor to study the recent performance of Bayern Munich players, but Klopp used his language, body, and knowledge to instill in the players the concept of winning.

With the cooperation of Tang Zheng and the two captains, the team members showed full confidence and high spirits, wishing for the game to come soon.

At the same time, at the hotel where Bayern Munich stayed, coach Van Gaal also called the players to have a meeting in the hotel conference room.

Compared with Dortmund's confidence building, Van Gaal is more inclined to analyze Dortmund's recent situation.

Van Bommel and Bastian Schweinsteiger, who will play together in tomorrow's game, were highlighted by Van Gaal. Dortmund's central defensive success rate is the highest in the entire Bundesliga this season, so they should pay attention to dividing the ball between two players. On the wing, Robben and Ribery are looking for opportunities on the wing.

For that, they both don't make sense.

In terms of offense, Van Gaal looked to Thomas Muller, the biggest player in the Bayern team this season.

From an offensive point of view, the spiritual Thomas Muller's swing in this game is likely to determine the outcome of the game.
