Chapter 25 The Storm Center is Calm

Chu Zhongtian was replaced, but the game was not over yet. Dortmund was still trying to launch an attack. They no longer hoped that they could equalize the score or turn the defeat into victory. They just hoped to save some face for themselves in this game.

Nori, who was not as tough as Chu Zhongtian, had no temper before. Shahin gradually became active after Chu Zhongtian was out of the court, and Tinga and Kyle no longer had to focus all their energy on a player in Hoffenheim. Although Brazilian midfielder Gustavo, who appeared as a substitute Chu Zhongtian, is a very potential player, in terms of current strength, he is still a big gap with Chu Zhongtian.

He is not enough to make all three of Dortmund's midfielders move.

Dortmund's continuous attack finally received a reward. At the last moment of injury time, they got a corner kick. Shahin took a corner kick from the left, and Kyle's shot was blocked by several Hoffenheim players. Philippe Santana got a bargain eight meters away from the middle and shot low with his left foot. The football rushed into the lower left corner of the goal.

1:4.

Dortmund finally scored a goal that saved his face.

However, this ball did not affect the Hoffenheim fans' mood to celebrate the victory.

This is the biggest victory of the team since entering the Bundesliga, not only because of the big score, but also because they defeated Dortmund, who once won the European Champions League. The doubts from the outside world made them and these fans feel very painful, so they really made a sigh of anger in this game!

Dortmund fans seemed very frustrated. Except for a few radical fans who were singing songs that threatened Dietma, Hope and Chu Zhongtian's life, everyone else left the Carl-Benz Stadium with their heads down. For them, this afternoon was really painful, and they wanted to completely forget this afternoon in one night.

On the road, facing a newly promoted team who has never played in the Bundesliga, but lost so badly... This is simply unbearable to look back on.

※※※As soon as the game ended, Chu Zhongtian became the focus of the media's pursuit, because his performance in this game was so perfect. His performance well interprets the concepts of "midfield core", "midfield hub", and "on-field commander".

"If anyone still doesn't know what a qualified midfielder is, let's see how Chu performs in this game!" German pay TV Premiere (Author's note: I found a lot of information, but I didn't find the correct Chinese translation of this TV station. I'm not used to using a foreign word that no one can understand in Chinese writing articles, so I encountered similar situations before, and I would find the Chinese translation of those words and mark the foreign name in brackets. This time I really can't find it. If any friend is familiar with German football or Germany, please help me, you can directly

Post your translation name in the book review area. I will give you some more thanks for seeing it.) The commentator was also impressed by Chu Zhongtian's performance in this game. When he was doing league analysis programs before the season, the commentator was a guest. He was not optimistic about Hoffenheim's prospects and believed that there were many bosses who would spend money. However, football does not mean that the richer the more successful he is. Chelsea boss Abramovich spent so much money and won the European Champions League? No. Similarly, Hoffenheim, who is not as good as Chelsea in history, could not turn into a phoenix because he has a boss worth 6.3 billion euros.

At that time, he asserted that the team's goal this season should be to relegate. As long as they can continue to stay in the Bundesliga next season and stay in the Bundesliga for at least five seasons, then this team can be considered a success.

Unexpectedly, Hoffenheim's performance was so eye-catching at the beginning of the new season.

The previous results can be said that everyone did not understand Hoffenheim, which made them take advantage of loopholes. However, the commentator is not a pseudo-fan who doesn't know anything, he is also an expert. After explaining this game, he believed that Hoffenheim is indeed qualified to succeed.

First of all, the boss is rich. Modern football is not the world that was fifty years ago. Without money, you can’t play. A rich and willing to invest is a dream for all teams. Now Hoffenheim has it. Money is the foundation of the sport of football. An ordinary football enthusiast has to pay for football and sneakers if he wants to play football, let alone professional football? Rich clubs may not necessarily succeed, but clubs without money will definitely not win the championship. This is the characteristic of modern football.

In addition to being rich, Hoffenheim's boss has also created a very good hardware environment for the club, from the best high-tech clinics in Germany to first-class training grounds.

In addition to a good hardware environment, Hope also used a lot of money to create an excellent software for the team - the coaching team. Ralph Rangnick, a representative of the German Football Academy, was formerly the head coach of the German men's hockey team. Peters (Bernhard_peters), who was once a person Klinsmann admired, but he failed to work in the German national team due to the opposition of the German Football Association. He could greatly enrich Rangnick's ideas in tactical terms.

After having these, Hope gave head coach Ralph Rangnick full autonomy in team building and management. Rangnick became another head coach who exercised the power of a British football manager in the Bundesliga team in addition to Magath. In the transfer market, all Hoffenheim bought in the past three seasons was decided by Rangnick himself, and all Hope had to do was pay for money to sign the check.

Therefore, from the perspective of Hoffenheim's players, they are all very suitable for this team. Although they are not very famous, they have the strength to be underestimated - they have fully proved this in the first five rounds of the league.

Speaking of players, we have to focus on Chu Zhongtian, a Chinese player who spent 30 million euros this summer and became the Bundesliga transfer betting this season.

Previously, the media were very puzzled by Hope and Rangnick's spending so much money to buy a Chinese player who only played in the Ligue 1 and the League Cup, and even slammed Hope for using money indiscriminately. This is why the Bundesliga club chairman who is very careful to buy a player is worthy of.

Although Chu Zhongtian won the League Cup and although Chu Zhongtian has a record of leading Metz to defeat Bayern Munich, who can prove that he can still be as good as a fish in the Bundesliga? Look at Metz's performance last season. After leaving Ribery, the team ended up losing nothing. Doesn't this tell the problem? Besides, even if Chu Zhongtian is an excellent player, it is not worth 30 million euros... Ribery was bought from Metz by Bayern Munich last season and spent 30 million euros, but the 30 million is still paid in installments. If Bayern Munich cannot qualify from the group stage in the Champions League this season - although this possibility is very small - Ribery's actual value is 24 million.

The main reason why Ribery is worth 30 million is not his outstanding performance in the League Cup, but his performance in the German World Cup. This is why Bayern Munich is willing to pay him 30 million euros.

What does Chu Zhongtian have? Apart from the League Cup, he has no achievements that can prove his ability. He has been dragged down by the Chinese national team's performance in the World Cup and has never even shown his face. Why is such a player worth 30 million euros?

Some media simply questioned Chu Zhongtian's agent and Rangnick's private agreement, saying it was 30 million. In fact, some of the rebates were put into the pockets of Rangnick and his agent. This kind of thing is not uncommon in European football. Some well-known head coaches have been exposed to the scandal of joining forces with their agents to take rebates.

This kind of doubt about Chu Zhongtian's personal ability has always existed. Therefore, although a high value can satisfy Chu Zhongtian's vanity, it also puts heavy pressure on him. If he cannot show his ability to match his value, then criticism will overwhelm him and completely submerge him. Several years later, when Chu Zhongtian struggled in the low-level teams in the low-level league, people recalled the halo of the "Bundesliga transfer betting" he once created, and I wonder what he would feel.

Fortunately, this scene has not happened yet.

Chu Zhongtian's performance in this game made many people look at him with admiration, and the previous doubts have become much smaller now.

Maybe someone will doubt his value, but at least no one will think that Chu Zhongtian is a squatting product.

The team won the strong rival Dortmund with a big score, which made Chu Zhongtian feel in a good mood. Although he could always hear the personal threats from Dortmund radical fans at the end of the game, he did not take them seriously.

Chu Zhongtian, surrounded by Chinese and German reporters, smiled happily and answered the questions raised by the reporters one by one.

Of course, he did not arrogantly attribute all the victory of the game to himself. He said that the team's ability to win was all due to the team, and even head coach Ralph Rangnick's contribution was much greater than his.

It cannot be said that he is modest, because what he is telling the truth is that without Rangnick, he would never have performed so well in the game, because he would not even be the core of letting the entire team revolve around him. And if only him and Rangnick and the other ten teammates do not cooperate at all, then no matter how outstanding he is, it will be useless.

But in the eyes of the media, they all highly appreciate his humility.

Suddenly a German reporter asked a question that had nothing to do with the previous question: "Chu, have you heard the singing in the stands?"

The German journalists next to them looked a little bad, and even the Chinese journalists were disgusted. What did Dortmund radical fans do, these people knew very well, but this matter was more sensitive and no one was willing to talk about it. Chinese journalists were afraid of rising to the level of diplomatic conflict - don't think that this kind of thing has little impact. People and South Korea can protest specifically by the embassy because of the criticism of Korean football by Chinese commentators - German journalists felt that this matter was too embarrassing... Unexpectedly, they did not hear Chu Zhongtian's angry criticism, but smiled: "I think it's okay, this means they are afraid of me. And they are afraid of me, which means I performed very well."

His answer made the reporters breathe a sigh of relief. No matter if Chu Zhongtian really thought so, he just didn't want everyone to embarrass everyone's answer. In short, his response made everyone very satisfied.

This matter has just passed.

Chu Zhongtian won the highest score in this game after the game - one point, and he naturally won the best of the game in this game.

※※※Chu Zhongtian did not take the personal threat from Dortmund's radical fans to him in his heart, but it does not mean that everyone doesn't care.

After the game, Hope slammed Dortmund's radical fans in the media for this approach. "They are now beyond the limit - they are calling for murder." He told the Mannheim Morning Post. "This is no longer a joke made by simple children. We need to have decisive measures to stop this behavior, otherwise it will be out of control and eventually become accustomed to it."

He not only condemned this practice in the media, he also called the police.

Many media in Germany have paid attention to this matter, and Chu Zhongtian took it for granted. After this round of league, he became the most exposed player.

First, he helped Hoffenheim defeat Dortmund with a surprising score of 4:1. Second, he was named the best player in the round after this league and was also selected for the best team in the round.

"But his outstanding performance on the court brought him trouble" - this was the words of the German media. He had been booing and insulting from Dortmund fans during the game, and in the end these insults turned into racist remarks and threats of life.

German media began a new round of criticism of racist forces and neo-Nazi forces. This criticism was not limited to football, but also expanded to the entire society. The fuse was Chu Zhongtian, a Chinese player.

Dortmund Club Chairman Dr. Laubar also violently criticized some Dortmund fans in an interview with the media, saying that what these people did put Dortmund Club in shame and stained the Dortmund team badge.

Although clubs always try to please their supporters, it does not mean that they will like and support anything they do under the banner of supporting the club. Although some of those football hooligans are also hard-core supporters of the team, any team would rather they than like themselves. Doing "hate" things under the banner of "love" is definitely not an honor, but a shame for the person they "love".

Dortmund's general manager Hans-joachim_watzke has apologized for the actions of some fans and believes that the time is "embarrassing, shameful and unworthy". The club also stated that it will do its best to support the police's investigation.

A 19-year-old Dortmund boy has been detained by police. Once convicted, he will be banned from entering all courts in Germany.

In addition, local Chinese groups in Dortmund, Germany also protested against the Dortmund club and the German Football Association, protesting that racial discriminatory remarks against Chinese people appeared in the Bundesliga last weekend. Although Chu Zhongtian has not achieved anything in Hoffenheim, his wonderful performance has made German Chinese regard Chu Zhongtian as their pride.

Yang Chen had enjoyed such treatment before, and his best result in Frankfurt was just to help Frankfurt successfully relegate. Today, eight years later, it is about Chu Zhongtian.

This incident has caused a lot of commotion among the Chinese fan group after reporting by Chinese media, but these are reactions privately and online. The attitude of mainstream media is restrained, which is normal. CCTV will never strongly condemn the fans of the German Dortmund Football Club in the news broadcast for posing personal threats to a Chinese player. This is too nonsensical.

So the most lively thing is on the Internet. Many netizens and fans condemned Dortmund's radical fans online and supported Chu Zhongtian. Some equally radical people even shouted slogans that were no less than those Germans.

Dortmund also has a group of loyal fans in China. They are probably the most painful group in this matter. Because it is impossible for everyone to be very rational and know that "there are injustice and debt are in charge." In this incident, more people simply pointed their finger at Dortmund Club and scolded Dortmund Club into a garbage concentration camp where neo-Nazis are concentrated, snakes and rats are nesting.

※※※The reactions on the domestic Internet and media have little to do with Chu Zhongtian. However, his parents, girlfriend and agent were a little nervous after learning about this.

His father Chu Zuosheng supported Chu Zhongtian's football game, but he still reminded Chu Zhongtian to pay attention to his own safety in this matter. He knew that his son was used to being careless in some aspects.

Zhou Xiaoxiang, who was a mother, became even more nervous and even wanted Chu Zhongtian to hire a few personal bodyguards. Of course, this was unrealistic... Chu Zhongtian did not directly object to it, and he did not intend to follow the action in his heart.

The first thing Emily called was to care about Chu Zhongtian's safety and let him pay more attention to it. If he noticed that there were strangers swaying outside his home, he would call the police immediately. The second thing was to tell Chu Zhongtian that he was about to finish his work in the United States and come to Germany to accompany him for a while.

This is the first time that the two of them met after they parted in Sichuan, China. Although they only had a week of reunion, Chu Zhongtian was very happy. He had long thrown the threat from Dortmund fans out of the sky.

In fact, as soon as the game ended, he stopped thinking about that. His club owner, Mr. Hope, also called the police, but he never thought of this.

The agent James Merry's phone number is no different from that of others, just reminding him to pay attention to safety.

Although Chu Zhongtian took it seriously, he knew that everyone was kind-hearted. He was not a dog who bit Lu Dongbin, he didn't know that he was kind-hearted and ungrateful. So he expressed his gratitude verbally.

In fact, this incident had no effect on Chu Zhongtian himself. It was very lively around him, and he protested and scolded him. As for everything, he took a complete set of equipment and drove to Taubbischowsheim to practice fencing with Coach Bell on the second day after the game.
