Chapter 103 The League Opens
After a pleasant day, the team started to gather again. The current team lineup is relatively incomplete. Demichelis and Italian center Toni are both seriously injured. It is estimated that in the first few months of the new season, Toni and Demichelis may have to watch their teammates fight from the stands. Moreover, Toni and Van Gaal still have conflicts, because Van Gaal told Tony that he will not be the team’s first choice for the new season. Of course, Klose is also the same.
In addition to Tony and Demichelis, there are two minor injuries of Ribery and Klose, but both of them are only minor injuries. They should be able to recover after a week of rest, but it is estimated that they will not be able to catch up in the first round.
In a blink of an eye, the time came to August 8th. On this day, the Bundesliga officially opened. The first game of the new season was Wolfsburg's home game against Stuttgart. This season, Stuttgart lost their main center Super Mario. On the contrary, Wolfsburg not only kept the striker Dzeko, but also spent 8 million euros to buy the former Inter Milan striker and Nigerian fast horse Martins to further strengthen their own strength.
The current Stuttgart lineup is not bad. They have the German midfielder Sami Khedira who will join Real Madrid in the future, and Hleb who came on loan from Barcelona.
However, the importance of a super shooter is fully reflected in this game. Throughout the game, Stuttgart had the advantage in the scene and shooting, but they just couldn't get a goal. Instead, Wolfsburg had their Bosnia-Herzegovina midfielder Misimovic take the lead in the 71st minute of the second half. Then in the 80th minute, Grafit scored another goal. In the end, they conceded two goals in 10 minutes and swallowed the bitter fruit 2:0.
On the second day, the Neckar Arena in Hoffenheim, which can accommodate [-] people, was full of seats. The attendance rate of the Bundesliga is known as the highest in Europe.
As time approached, the fans began to shout and players from both sides officially debuted.
Hoffenheim lineup:
Goalkeeper: Hildebrand
Defenders: Ibecberger, Kampa, Simunić, Baker
Midfielders: Sally Howell, Warsa, Weiss
Forwards: Obasi, Ibisevic, Eduardo
Bayern Munich lineup:
Goalkeeper: Rensing
Defenders: Planjic, Badstubel, Van Buyten, Lahm
Midfielders: Baumjohann, Schweinsteiger, Van Bommel, Altintop,
Forwards: Gomez, Olic,
Li Feng did not appear in the main lineup, even on the bench, Li Feng was not seen, because at this time, he was sitting at home, watching a Bayern league game on TV.
At this moment, Li Feng was sitting listlessly on the sofa in the living room, watching the players of the two teams appear on the TV. When the screen turned to the bench, Li Feng saw Muller winking at the camera. He knew that it was Muller who was greeting him, and Li Feng suddenly felt very sad.
He was so eager to stand on the court, but God seemed to play a joke on him. Just the day before the game, Li Feng found himself with a cold, and the result was naturally sad. He was kicked out of the training ground by Van Gaal. Before the cold recovered, Li Feng was never allowed to step into the gate of the club.
The physique of Westerners is very different from that of the East. In the East, a cold is just a very common ailment. Even if you don’t take medicine, you can recover after a few days of rest. But in the West, a cold is a serious illness.
And the cold this time also let me know that although he has a system in his body, he has not escaped from the scope of "human" after all, he has not become someone who wears underwear outside. This will also help Li Feng recognize himself and better protect his body.
In this game, Bayern's offensive was not strong. Apart from a slight lead in ball possession, there was no other advantage at all. Even Bayern's fouls were more than twice that of Hoffenheim, and they paid two yellow cards for this.
Bayern's goal belonged to Olić. In the 25th minute, Schweinsteiger dispatched from the backcourt, Altintop and Lahm cooperated perfectly, and Olić scored the first shot in the penalty area. This was Olić's first shot and the only shot in the game.
Bayern were only 15 minutes ahead. At the end of the first half, Nigerian winger Obasi equalized for Hoffenheim. He broke through Pranjic on the edge of the penalty area and suddenly kicked.
It has to be said that since Kahn retired, Bayern's goalkeeper position has become the weakest link. Lensing's performance has not met people's expectations. Bayern has repeatedly reported the news of acquiring the goalkeeper this season.
In the No.70 minute of the second half, Van Gaal began to deploy troops frequently. He replaced Muller, Tymoshchuk and Brafhead successively, replaced Baumjohn, Van Bommel and Gomez who had a yellow card, but in the end they still failed to score again. Bayern's first game of the season ended in a 1:1 draw.
The impact of Li Feng's absence on Bayern is still unclear. After all, he only played a few friendly matches on behalf of Bayern. However, Ribery's absence has a great impression on Bayern. The offensive power and creativity in the frontcourt have completely declined. Both Bayern executives and Van Gaal have noticed this problem, which also prompted Bayern to make another shot.
Although he did not win, the draw was barely acceptable due to the uneven lineup. At the end of the game, the entire Bayern team returned to Munich, but Li Feng still lived alone. At this time, he really missed Badstuber, because it was too boring for him to stay at home alone.
But soon, Li Feng was not so boring. On the third day of catching a cold, Sylvia unexpectedly came to Germany. It turned out that Villari specially asked Sylvia to take care of Li Feng after learning that Li Feng was ill. By the way, he handed over the fist company share contract to Li Feng. In the United States, Sylvia helped Li Feng register an investment company. Lauren and Li Feng set up a brokerage company under the name of this company.
After that, under Sylvia's meticulous care, Li Feng finally recovered before the start of the next round of the league, but the result was still a bit sad, because of the cold, Li Feng almost left the schedule for a week.
So in the second round against Werder Bremen, Li Feng still failed to appear in the main lineup of Bayern Munich. Of course, compared with the previous round, this round is still a big improvement, because at the moment he is sitting on the bench, and beside him are Mullen and Ribery.
In this match, Klose and Franck Ribery returned to health. Klose entered the main roster, while Franck Ribery sat on the bench just like Li Feng. Li Feng was grateful for this scarred warrior. After all, not everyone is so generous and kind, who easily gave up their jersey number to others. So far, the two have a very good relationship.
