Chapter 244 Enjoy the competition, enjoy the game
Chu Zhongtian suddenly appeared in the TV camera, which surprised many people. The most surprising one was Real Madrid fans. They were all looking forward to another Muslim counterattack and then scored another goal. Unexpectedly, the counterattack failed and Chu Zhongtian came out halfway!
"Chu!Chu!Chu—gooooooooooooooooool!!!"
The entire Rhine-Neka Stadium was vibrating, and the TV cameras were shaking constantly.
The football shot by Chu Zhongtian had a very small arc, and it was this arc that allowed the football to bypass Casillas in the air and rushed into the back corner of the goal.
Faced with such a world wave, even Saint Igor can do nothing!
Alonso shoveled towards Chu Zhongtian from the front, and he successfully tripped Chu Zhongtian, but only made Chu Zhongtian stagger a little, and after he had shot the football out, it was completely meaningless. Chu Zhongtian staggered for a while, and soon maintained his balance. He stepped over Alonso.
Alonso, who was lying on the ground, looked back at the goal. He didn't see the process, but only saw one result - the football rotated rapidly in the net, and finally stopped slowly, and then fell into the goal. He finally did not stop the ball from entering the goal... In the 38th minute, Hoffenheim equalized the score!
※※※"This is Hoffenheim's tenacious declaration! This game is directly related to their qualifying situation, and it is a game that must not be lost! After the eleventh minute behind, Hoffenheim equalized the score! Chu's goal is very, very beautiful! Even Casillas can't do anything about such a shot!"
The German narrator was almost crazy.
Hoffenheim fans were also crazy, waving their arms hard in the stands and shouting loudly.
"This is Chu Zhongtian's fourth goal in this Champions League! Another beautiful world wave! He inherited the glorious tradition of meeting stronger and stronger! He once again played the key gentleman of the team at a critical moment in the key game! Hoffenheim's only superstar is him!" He Ping was also excited.
"Oh-oh... Chu, he scored a goal! This should not be a scoring opportunity..." In the eyes of the Spanish commentator, Real Madrid's defense is fine, it can be said to be airtight. But Chu Zhongtian still forced himself into it, and a somewhat unreasonable shot actually penetrated the goal guarded by Casillas... Should he say he is lucky or has the ability?
After scoring the goal, Chu Zhongtian was also very excited. He rushed to the sidelines, then waved his fists to the stands, venting his emotions in his heart.
And his teammates were more excited than him.
They can even use swear words to express their inner excitement.
"So fucking beautiful!"
※※When seeing the team conceal the ball, Cristiano Ronaldo, who was preparing to counterattack in front, raised his palms and expressed his disappointment. Then he stood there with his hands on his hips and looked at the Hoffenheim player celebrating the goal. If he wanted to kick off, he would even use how to move - he is in the middle circle now.
However, this concealment did not affect his mood much. Except for a little disappointment, everything else was fine. Anyway, there was still something to do during the game, if you concede the goal, you would score again. He is best at scoring goals.
If this goal had happened in the 85th minute, he would not have been so calm.
The team's number one star was not in a hurry, and someone was in a hurry. Mourinho stood up from the chair angrily after seeing the ball below, trying to find something to fall, but found that there was nothing to fall except the small notebook in his hand. He had to change the fall to the topic, turned around and kicked his seat.
Then he sat down regardless of whether the chair was clean or not.
It was obvious that the angry expression on his face was seen.
Although under his rule, Real Madrid's offensive strength has been greatly improved and he can win a big score in every game, Mourinho always values defense the most. Compared with scoring five goals, he cares more about the goal he lost. If possible, he hopes that his team will not concede every game.
What's more, this concealment made the score equalized.
Before the game, some people were worried that Mourinho would let go of the water for the sake of next Monday's world war and national derby. It turns out that Mourinho did not let go of the water, and Real Madrid was still very active. However, Mourinho has always been thinking about the game with Barcelona next Monday, but his approach is not to let go of the water, but to ask everyone to do their best and solve Hoffenheim early in this game. He can make adjustments in the remaining time to ensure that everyone is in shape and will not be injured, and his physical energy consumption will not be too large... Unexpectedly, his wishful thinking was ruined by Chu Zhongtian's unreasonable long-range shot. At least for a while in the second half, his team must do their best, otherwise it may really capsize in this gutter.
※※The first half continued, and no matter Real Madrid, who was equalized or Hoffenheim, who equalized the score, they were still insisting on attacking.
However, no one scored another goal. One minute after the injury time in the first half, the referee blew the whistle of the intermission.
The two teams entered the locker room with a score of 1:1.
The commentary principles said that the first half was very exciting, although both sides only scored one goal. "This first half was a very exciting first half! Both sides played offensive football, and it was very satisfying to watch it!"
"Do you still remember the first time the two sides fought? That game changed people's impression of Mourinho's Real Madrid. Since then, everyone has gradually accepted and used to seeing Mourinho's Real Madrid score goals and then scored again in the game, defeating the opponent by a big score. Now that the two sides meet again, we have not disappointed us, it is still a wonderful offensive battle!"
"Hoffenheim is full of power as soon as he returns to the home court, which is indeed a bit magical. It seems that their home court is really magical... In the last league game, Mourinho left the locker room early before the first half, and he seemed to be used to doing this. But today he was waiting on the sidelines until the whistle at the end of the first half was blown. It seems that this opponent dared not take it lightly..."
※※※In the locker room, Mourinho was very dissatisfied with the team's conceding goals, but he was not too obsessed with it. He just asked the team to continue to strengthen the offense in the second half and strive to win.
As soon as Hoffenheim players entered the locker room, they were not talking about the first half that had just ended, but were concerned about another group match far away in France.
"How is the game in Milan?" someone asked loudly.
Perhaps only the substitutes know this result.
"0:0!" Someone answered them.
"oh!!"
There were whistles and applause in the locker room.
This is the news they want to hear the most. AC Milan's draw means that the gap between the two sides is still five points. If everyone ends the draw, the last round of the group stage will lose its meaning, and Hoffenheim will definitely qualify in advance. So for Hoffenheim players, AC Milan has not scored yet, which is indeed good news.
"Come on, Ausselle!"
"Hey, Chu! Your teacher is helping us!" There were also teammates who joked with Chu Zhongtian.
Chu Zhongtian just shrugged, not as excited and happy as others. He said to his teammates who were joking with him like this: "Don't be too happy too early. There are still 45 minutes left, we may lose to Real Madrid at home, and AC Milan may also win Ausselle away."
Of course, he knew that Ausserl emphasized defense very much, but after playing with them two games, Chu Zhongtian already knew how strong Ausser's defense was. In addition, Allegri gradually entered the state, and AC Milan is much harder to deal with now, so he really doesn't have any hope of whether Ausserl can block AC Milan. Besides, Ausserl has no hope of qualifying. Even if he competes for the third place in the group to play in the Europa League, there is no hope of them. They are as unlucky as Hoffenheim. The last two group matches are AC Milan and Real Madrid, the two super strong teams, respectively. The chance of winning in both games is lower than Hoffenheim.
When everyone heard the captain say this, they were a little disappointed and were not as excited as before. Because the captain was right, this halftime draw could not be explained. Unless after half a length, Ausserl will lead AC Milan with a big score of 4:0 and 5:0. However, the probability of this situation is even lower, and it is almost impossible.
Rangnick followed and entered the locker room. Seeing that everyone was there and it was quiet, he coughed and started talking.
He praised the team's performance as soon as he came up, especially Chu Zhongtian, who was named and praised several times.
He was really happy with Chu Zhongtian's goal. After Chu Zhongtian scored, he jumped up from the coach's seat, rushed to the sidelines, and cheered for a long time. Chu Zhongtian's goal meant that the team could take the draw to the midfield, which allowed him, the head coach, to be much more relaxed when arranging tactics. At least he didn't have to burn his way out at the beginning of the second half. This is a big move, and he can only use it once in a game. It's too early to use it. If it gets exaggerated later, it will be useless.
He once used such a big move in the league, and replaced two forwards in one breath, including the three forwards who were already on the court, and played five forwards. Such moves are not always successful. Sometimes they can win, and sometimes they are useless.
Chu Zhongtian's ball made him feel more at ease, and the team's morale increased. How to play in the second half? Of course, it was still an offense. Hoffenheim would not do anything except attack, and he would attack under any circumstances.
But how to attack specifically?
Rangnick studied Real Madrid's game and found that Marcelo's assists were often more active in the second half than in the first half. I don't know if this was Mourinho's intentional arrangement, but that's the case. He felt that Hoffenheim could make more use of Marcelo in the second half. After he went up to assist, he attacked the whole way.
On the other side is Aberoa, who has poor assist ability and is not as active as Marcelo in offense. Maybe there will be some improvement in the second half, but Hoffenheim's focus is still on Marcelo's side.
Mourinho's teams pay great attention to wing attacks, and there will be gaps behind them. It depends on whether Hoffenheim can catch them.
The intermission passed quickly.
Hoffenheim players returned to the court, but the Real Madrid players didn't see a single figure, and they didn't come out in the locker room.
It was not until the last minute of the half-time break that they walked out of the passage one after another and appeared on the court. Mourinho was talking to his players along the way, and in the end he even hugged Alonso's neck while whispering.
"It seems that Mourinho must have said a lot in the locker room, so he had been used up for fifteen minutes, and he hadn't finished speaking yet." The commentator joked after seeing this scene.
Of course, there are other commentators who don’t think so: “Ha! Here comes again! This is one of Mourinho’s most common tactics – let the opponent’s players play first during the halftime break and then wait on the court. His people are always late. Germany on November 23rd is a little cold. If it’s late and snowing, the effect will be even better, haha!”
Mourinho does like to do some of these extra-track tricks. Although they are always controversial, they are very useful. There is no way for people to deal with him.
No one can guarantee that Mourinho's move is not a psychological tactic.
Hoffenheim players actually didn't wait long, and Mourinho hasn't played too much this time. So Hoffenheim players didn't feel any interference.
After both sides decided, the second half of the game began.
※※※Real Madrid kicked off in the second half. Real Madrid launched a fierce attack on Hoffenheim's goal as soon as possible. It seemed that they wanted to score a goal as soon as possible.
In addition to Cristiano Ronaldo, Ozil's performance was also excellent. Sana was specifically responsible for guarding him, but he did not follow him in the first half, allowing Ozil to assist C. Ronaldo to score a goal. In the second half, Ozil's performance became more active, and Sana's follower was a bit hard.
This Turkish descendant with a pair of goldfish eyes is now very popular in Real Madrid. He joined the group instead of the injured Kaka. As soon as he arrived in Real Madrid, he immediately won the love of fans. His skills and calmness made Real Madrid fans forget Kaka and remember Zidane.
Sana tried hard to block Ozil's shot in defense, and then got up from the ground, and he muttered.
"Damn it! Why is this kid more powerful than when he was in Bremen..."
When Chu Zhongtian heard his words, he turned his head to look at him and looked at Ozil. It was not that Ozil was more powerful, but that the people around him were more powerful, so he could play his best. In Bremen, trapped by Bremen's overall strength, he could only play so much even in geniuses. But in Real Madrid, where there are excellent players around him, is different.
Here is the surprise of a good environment and a bad environment.
So if you change to a better environment, will you perform better?
Chu Zhongtian didn't know and didn't want to think about it at this time.
He pointed at Ozil and signaled Sana to defend. Real Madrid was going to take a corner kick.
Ozil is just a trouble for Hoffenheim, and the biggest problem is the extremely active Portuguese.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Chu Zhongtian are not in the match. He often moves on the sidelines, while Chu Zhongtian is in the middle, and both of them are offensive players, so there is rarely a one-on-one defense situation.
But the competition between them never stopped.
Chu Zhongtian has a wonderful story here, and C. Ronaldo broke through from the side and created a murderous intent.
On this side, C. Ronaldo's shot in the penalty area slightly missed, and on the other side, Chu Zhongtian headed the ball in a corner kick and almost hit the ball.
Ronaldo used fancy moves to play Hoffenheim defender Serner, who was defending him, while Chu Zhongtian just relied on the fake moves of his upper body to shake away Diara, who was defending him from behind.
Both of them use their magical powers and show their best self.
Before the national derby between Real Madrid and Barcelona, everyone was saying "This is the best Ronaldo!" "This is the best Messi", but this game was a showdown between "The best Ronaldo" and "The best Chu Zhongtian".
Both of them scored goals in this game. In addition to scoring goals, they are also core figures in their respective offensive systems. Real Madrid's offense is absolutely impossible to avoid c. Ronaldo and Hoffenheim's offense are simply initiated by Chu Zhongtian.
The commentators also quickly realized that this was a contest between the two cores.
"Ronaldo's ability is really outstanding. His speed, technology and body are top-notch..."
"Chu's consciousness is very good! The passes he sent to his teammates are always the most comfortable and beneficial to the team's offense!"
※※※Although the score has always been a draw, Chu Zhongtian really enjoys such a game. He shows his best self with the strongest opponent and forces the opponent to show his best self. He plays his best and leads the team forward.
He didn't know if C. Ronaldo enjoyed such a game, but now he had a smile on his face.
He Ping noticed the smile on Chu Zhongtian's face: "It seems like Chu Zhongtian is enjoying the game... Such an expression is basically not visible on the faces of our Chinese players. We have seen this expression on the faces of Ronaldo at his peak before. At that time, Ronaldo was happy. Now he is working hard in the game and sweating is also happy. Milu once emphasized happy football. After so many years, Chu Zhongtian in China has done it... Should we say that this is a blessing or an unfortunate Chinese football?"
He Ping, who was named "poet" because he became famous at the South African World Cup, began to express his emotions again. However, everyone likes his lyricism. Although he has a little bourgeois and literary style, it is very appropriate.
Ronaldo had no smile on his face, but gritted his teeth and fought every ball. However, it was difficult to judge whether he was enjoying the game from his expression, because he had such a serious and serious expression in every game until the end. For him, enjoying the game might be to fight with all his heart and use any means.
Both of them are indeed enjoying the game, but they enjoy different ways, and they think they enjoy different things.
But there is one thing they must be very similar - pursuing victory in the game, never stop running until the last moment.
