Ribery came to Sinsheim with the team, which was his first time here. Although he had been to Hoffenheim with the team when he was at Metz, he only stayed in Hoffenheim at that time and did not come to Sinsheim nearby. Of course, it was impossible to see the Rhine-Neca Stadium, which had only been completed in less than half a year. At that time, Metz was still playing against Hoffenheim, which could only accommodate 5,000 people... So in fact, it was his first time to come to Hoffenheim for a new home game.

He went to Rhine Neka Stadium with his teammates to do adaptation training.

There were countless media guarding the field and filming his every move. Few Bayern players paid attention to these media, and they all lowered their heads to adapt to the field.

Unlike the first match between the two sides, before the game, we didn't see the spectacular scene where both sides spitted back and forth for two weeks. Although more than 150 countries were broadcasting the game live, both sides calmed down a lot - in fact, it was mainly Bayern Munich, and they took the lead in every battle of verbalism.

The reason why Bayern is not very excited about verbal battles is their current results. After changing head coaches, although their results have improved slightly, they still have no chance to win the league championship.

Now Hoffenheim is the first in the league and has 71 points, Wolfsburg is the second in the league and 69 points, Stuttgart, third in the league and Bayern Munich are the fourth in the league and 64 points. What does this point mean? It means that even if Hoffenheim loses all the last two rounds and Bayern Munich wins all the way, they will not win the championship.

The only thing they want to strive for now is to be able to win third in the league and ensure their qualification for the Champions League next season. In the last round, they face Stuttgart at home, which is a good opportunity. Of course, they still have a chance before that, that is, to defeat Hoffenheim away.

So don't think that Bayern Munich won the league championship and had no intention of verbal battles, so they would let Hoffenheim go.

On the contrary, Bayern's view on this game is very simple - win. You must win, you must win.

Because the relationship between Bayern and Hoffenheim is not just the winner of this game. Last time the two sides met, Hoffenheim tied Bayern Munich at the last moment. After the game, they became heroes in Germany, while Bayern Munich became a laughing stock. This made the proud Bundesliga overlords really unacceptable, and they had been brewing revenge long ago. And tomorrow's game is the best chance to revenge.

If Hoffenheim loses to them at home, their league championship is likely to fly away. What makes them more painful than depriving their opponents of their league championship at the last moment? Hoffenheim snatched Bayern Munich's winter championship in the first half of the season. At this time, Bayern Munich must make Hoffenheim unable to win the league championship, which is considered a reciprocity.

So don’t think that Bayern is very low-key this time, in fact, the players are full of fighting spirit. They don’t need mobilization to play Hoffenheim, nor do they need the media to help stir up the atmosphere. All Bayern players have a burning flame in their hearts.

After adapting to the venue, the players were surrounded by reporters for interviews.

Ram talked about the game that is about to begin: "If the season ends and Hoffenheim wins the league championship plate, I will congratulate them. But not now, we have only one goal, and that is to beat them."

This is what all Bayern players say.

Ribery also thinks so. He will never let Chu and Ibissevic win the league championship so easily. The Bundesliga and Ligue 1 are different. How can the Bundesliga champions get ahead of the league without suffering difficulties? The league champion is not a treat, guys...※※※Although Bayern does not hype this game, the media will not miss this highlight - the grudges between the two sides in the first half of the season have been extended in this game, and this game is likely to decide the ownership of the Bundesliga champion this season in advance.

If such a game is not hyped, it would be unreasonable. That's why so many media gathered in the small town of Sinsheim.

If Hoffenheim really wins the championship this season, they will undoubtedly be the darkest dark horses, and they will also copy the Kaiserslautern miracle. Then the players in the team will become the people who are attracted by the world football world, and this small city will also become a focus of the world football world. Now the attention of the world has been turned to Sinsheim and Hoffenheim. Everyone wants to see if this rural miracle can be performed, and the key part is tomorrow's game. If Bayern Munich cannot stop Hoffenheim, then Hoffenheim is only a short distance away from their club's first Bundesliga championship in history.

Did the upstarts create history, or did the old nobles swear to block emerging forces to the death for their glory?

The media are crazy about such a gimmick.

For a time, the name of "New Kaiserslautern" was also pressed on Hoffenheim's head.

But Hoffenheim players are not grateful.

"We are different from Kaiserslautern..." Hoffenheim's captain Chu Zhongtian said in an interview with German and Chinese media. "The Kaiserslautern miracle is unique, and we are not comparable to them."

This sentence sounds like pouring cold water on the recent crazy "New Kaiser" to reduce the pressure on the team.

But Chu Zhongtian changed the subject next: "Kaisslautern's starting point is much higher than that of us. Many people ignore that before creating miracles, they were actually strong teams and had accumulated. That relegation was just an accident. In fact, after the relegation, their strength was not weakened, but instead enhanced. But we are different from them. We have never been strong teams. If we can get to this day, many people's glasses will be broken..."

After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized that Hoffenheim players were unwilling to compare them with Kaiserslautern. It was not that they felt that the achievements were too high, but that their achievements were higher than Kaiserslautern... But if you think about it carefully, Chu Zhongtian said it well. In terms of football alone, Kaiserslautern's starting point is indeed much higher than Hoffenheim. Everyone is talking about the Kaiserslautern miracle and the Kaiserslautern miracle, but they are actually deified in the constant reprints.

To talk about the real miracle... The Nottingham Forest, which thirty years ago, caused a red whirlwind throughout Europe, is the real miracle.

They won the league championship and League Cup in their first season as newly promoted players, becoming a domestic double champion. The next season they became even more crazy, setting a record of 42 unbeaten league games in England. This record was not broken by Wenger's Arsenal until 2004. They unexpectedly crowned the European champion and won the European Champions League. In the next season, they defended the European Champions League and achieved two consecutive championships in the European Champions League. All the promoted players in the world have to follow Nottingham Forest as an example, because they have created an almost insurmountable peak for all newly promoted players - they won the domestic league and cup double champions as well as the newly promoted players, and then won the Champions League twice in a row. Such a story is almost impossible to be copied in today's football world.

The reason why miracles are miracles is that they cannot be copied at all. But the miracle of Kaiserslautern can be copied completely, and Hoffenheim is currently on this road. Miracles like Nottingham Forest are basically impossible, because modern football has become a real money game, and most of the newly promoted teams have little money. They want to win the championship in the fierce competition and artificial control of the increasingly frequent European Champions League, which is simply more difficult than climbing to the sky.

Nottingham Forest in the 1977-1978 season has many similarities with Hoffenheim today. They were both unknown for a long time and struggled in low-level leagues. They both won the league championship after being promoted to the top league - of course, Hoffenheim has not yet been finalized. There are two mountains between them and the league championship prize plate, Bayern Munich and Schalke 04. At that time, Nottingham was unknown except for a few players. Now, Hoffenheim only had Chu Zhongtian and Ibisevic as stars before their success, while Salihovic and Demba and Ba were rarely known before Hoffenheim this season.

If we want to talk about the direction of our efforts, Chu Zhongtian obviously hopes that Hoffenheim will be like Nottingham Forest rather than Kaiserslautern.

The denial of Hoffenheim as the second Kaiserslautern also seems to reveal some of the players' ambitions - this team will not be willing to only control its influence in Germany.

One day, we will stand on the top European arena. One day, we will let teams like Real Madrid, Barcelona and Milan play in the small Sinsheim. One day, one day... One day, we will stand on the top of Europe!

※※China also attaches great importance to this game. There are so many Chinese overseas players, but there is not one team that can win the championship, let alone a player who wins the championship as the core of the main force.

Chu Zhongtian is the only one, and the most popular in China, so Chinese media naturally pay special attention.

This game started to be hyped a week ago. At that time, Wolfsburg lost, Hoffenheim won, and returned to the top of the list. The Chinese media immediately raised the league championship, arousing everyone's interest.

I won’t talk about the grand occasion of the domestic network, CCTV is also deciding that if Hoffenheim wins Bayern Munich, he will immediately send a crew to Germany to broadcast the last round of Hoffenheim against Schalke 04 on the spot. They want to witness the historical moment of Hoffenheim’s championship.

However, this matter is very risky, and no one can guarantee that Hoffenheim will win the championship. In this matter, Chu Zhongtian's intuition is useless.

"We all love Lindanda" ushered in the largest peak of visitor traffic since the website was established, and the server crashed many times. Before, they complained that Chu Zhongtian went to a newly promoted team, and now they all hope that Hoffenheim will win the championship successfully - they no longer remember the fact that Chu Zhongtian cursed Hoffenheim and was still out of the quagmire.

If Hoffenheim wins the championship, then Chu Zhongtian will appear in the Champions League next season. In fact, no matter whether Hoffenheim wins the championship or not, their current situation will definitely appear in the Champions League next season, but it feels different to participate in the Champions League as a German champion.

And we all love Lindan Big website also took advantage of the opportunity to carry out a prize-winning event under Yang Yang's planning. The event is called "We are all Huocun fans". As long as we register a website member before the end of this season, we can participate in the lottery. After the end of the season, we will randomly draw 100 lucky members from registered members, and they will receive a Hoffenheim jersey signed by Chu Zhongtian. If Hoffenheim eventually wins the championship, then there will be another ten lucky people who will get Chu Zhongtian's full set of equipment in Hoffenheim, including jerseys, shorts, socks, and a pair of precious Nike sneakers.

This activity greatly increased the popularity of the website and also helped Chu Zhongtian increase its popularity. In addition, in various media on the Internet, Chu Zhongtian has also become more popular, and Chu Zhongtian's name appears in almost all sports media.

Of course, it was all Yang Yang's credit.

Xu Xiaodi seized this opportunity to negotiate with those well-known companies and told them that Chu Zhongtian is now the most popular sports athlete in China, no less than Yao Ming, Liu Xiang and others. He has huge commercial potential, and is waiting for you to discover... Pepsi has decided to sign a contract with Chu Zhongtian. If the negotiation is completed, this endorsement contract can bring Chu Zhongtian one million euros a year.

Of course, these things will not be finalized before the end of the league, because Chu Zhongtian’s agent team will not use such things to disturb Chu Zhongtian at such a critical moment. At this time, Chu Zhongtian had to do only one thing, that is, to concentrate on playing well and win back a Bundesliga championship prize plate for everyone who likes him.

※※※It is certainly a pleasure to participate in the Champions League next season, but Hoffenheim is not in the mood to celebrate entering the Champions League, and their minds are just league champions.

In Hoffenheim town, in Sinsheim, almost all the windows of the street-front houses were filled with the blue and white flags of the Hoffenheim Club. At this time, Sinsheim was blue and white.

As the sun rises, Sinsheim wakes up from his sleep, and the city's blue and white flags flutter in the breeze. It's game day.

"Good morning, listeners. Today is Sunday, May 16, 2009. On this ordinary day, there is one of the most important things... Yes, yes! Today is the Bundesliga match day. This afternoon, in our city of Sinsheim, there is a very, very important game! For this game, we Sinsheim have been waiting for a year!"

Every citizen of Sinsheim who is used to listening to the radio in the morning will hear the familiar voice. At this moment, he suddenly stopped talking about the weather conditions and instead talked about football.

"Today, the sun is very strong, and there will be a very hot weather. Such weather will cause some trouble for outdoor sports, but I believe this is not a reason to prevent you from going to the scene to watch the game. Of course, when you go to the game, you should still be careful to be on guard against high temperatures, and pay attention to preparing for heatstroke prevention, such as drinking more water. After all, the highest temperature today is 35 degrees Celsius..."

At the same time, in the hotel where Hoffenheim players stayed, the players also went out of their rooms to gather in the restaurant downstairs for a meal.

When you see it in the corridor, you will greet each other.

"Hi, good morning."

“How did you sleep last night?”

"Oh, don't mention it, Tobias's snoring louder than usual..."

"Hey, the weather forecast says the highest temperature today is thirty-five degrees..."

"My God..."

"What are you afraid of? The weather is hot for us and it is hot for Bayern people. Everyone is fair."

When Chu Zhongtian heard everyone's talk, he turned his eyes out the window. He could see that the streets and houses outside were painted golden by the sun. It seemed that today was indeed a sunny and hot weather.

※※※"The sunlight is so dazzling..." When Ribery opened the curtains, her eyes were closed by the swelling sunlight.

"Wow..." Tony, who was lying on the bed, was also awakened by the sun. He turned over and wanted to continue sleeping.

"Stop sleeping, big man." Ribery kicked Tony in the ass.

"Don't bother me, Frank. Let me sleep for another five minutes... I can't rest well, and I'm not in a goal on the court at that time..."

Ribery pulled all the curtains open, and the bright sunshine poured in. He ignored the screams of his roommate behind him, stood in front of the window, looking at the golden world outside.

"So beautiful..." he murmured.

Tony sat up, looked out with sleepy eyes, "Where is the beauty?"

※※※The Bundesliga starts from the penultimate round, and all the matches start at the same time, and the time is 4:30 pm.

This time is a torment for those players participating in the game, because the hottest time of the day is 2:00, and the heat has not yet dissipated at 4:30 and it is still very hot. However, this time is a very happy thing for Chinese fans far away from the East - they don't have to stay up late to watch the game. The broadcast time of this game is very good, at 9:30 pm in Beijing time, which is the golden time.

The kick-off will be held at 4:30 in the afternoon, and the players will all arrive at the stadium at the latest for preparations at three o'clock.

They took a car to the stadium under the scorching sun, and then went to the stadium to warm up. The green grass was hot and everyone had to squint their eyes. When they looked at the surrounding stands with their squinted eyes, they saw the full stands.

In the white sunshine, the blue flags were everywhere. Although the weather forecast said that the highest temperature today was 35 degrees, it was still high but the enthusiasm of Sinsheim fans. In order to witness his team defeating Bayern Munich here, no matter how hot the weather is, it cannot stop these enthusiastic fans.

Even... the sunny stands suddenly darkened.

Chu Zhongtian looked up and a cloud floated over, just covering the sky above the stands.

In front of such great enthusiasm, even the sun must avoid its sharp edge!
Chapter completed!
