Grassroots Glory

Magath at the lottery scene was a breeze. Such a grouping was considered a rare signing of his coaching career. The only opponent in the group stage that needed serious preparation was Lyon, which was a good thing for Schalke. The end of the group stage is about the same as the first half of the league, which means that Schalke can focus on the domestic arena throughout the first half of the season.

Although the team's Champions League prospects are the most frequently discussed topic, Magath knows that the challenges they face in the Bundesliga are not small. Losing to Hamburg is a loud alarm. Schalke has not lost in a round for five consecutive seasons. Since the start was unfavorable, he has to work harder from now on. Therefore, Magath's strategy is clear. In the first half of the season, taking advantage of the Champions League challenge is not big, focus on the league, if you can establish a more obvious advantage, the second half of the multi-line sprint pressure will be much less.

However, in the third round of the league, Schalke played 1:1 with Hoffenheim away. Hoffenheim’s new home stadium, Rhein-Neckar Arena, which can accommodate 30,000 people, can only hold one more than they previously rented. The Mannheim Stadium with more than 10,000 people is difficult to conquer.

As the only Bundesliga team from a small village, although Hoffenheim only has more than 3,000 villagers, but their crazy football is no less than the enthusiasm of the miners fans for Schalke. All this thanks to Hope, the boss who silently invested 16 years in the team. Since this stadium, which really belongs to the fans of the small village, was built, every game day, the small village of Hoffenheim almost came out of the nest, and Ula Ula shouted for the main team to the last moment in the stands.

Zhou Tiancheng is used to it. Instead, stars like Raul and Jurado swing frequently. In fact, Schalke played well overall. After Zhou Tiancheng scored a long shot for the team to equalize the score, Raúl and several shots from close range missed the opportunity.

In the first three rounds of the league Schalke had one win, one draw and one loss, and it is interesting that Bayern also had the same record. Last season's championship and runner-up ranked seventh in the standings, while Leverkusen and Dort were ranked in the top three. .

Although the league has just begun, it is too early to say that the league will change this season, but at least it has been shown that the Bundesliga will be more intense this season, which means more attention, at least from the media point of view, they are happy to see .

Magath was naturally dissatisfied with this result, and it was too much from the last season's streak, but he was not too harsh on the players. He knew that being tied by Hoffenheim was not an on-field player. Not enough strength, but really bad luck.

This thing sounds dangling, but it is often a factor that cannot be ignored in the game, and sometimes it can indeed change the result of the game. For example, Raul twice hit the outer edge of the same side post with a nod. This probability does not sound very big, but it was born, blocking Schalke's original victory. This is a god's will that no matter how clever tactical masters and capable players are. Probability has the classic proposition that "small probability events cannot happen", but on the football field, countless facts prove that this is a pseudo-proposition.

Of course, there is a more important factor, which also prompted Magath not to blame everyone too much after the game-the next season of the Champions League group round, Schalke will go away to challenge the team's strongest opponent.

Although there is nothing wrong with qualifying for the group, Schalke’s short-term goal is definitely not only this, but to win the group first, but also to win another group victory. So this away game is especially critical, as long as you win, the goal can basically be achieved.

Before the team came out, Zhou Tiancheng took the time to take a look at his club. Because he went in the afternoon, the club looked quite deserted. Yang Cheng and Chu Yunling were not there. Only Xie Fatzi sat in front of the computer and watched Zhou Tiancheng walk in. The fat man froze for half a second, then laughed. The fat on his face grumbled and said, "Brother Cheng, did the team train so early today?"

"I'm going to play away now. I haven't had time to care about here for a long time. Come and see."

"Brother Yang and Sister Ling are not here."

Zhou Tiancheng chuckled: "I'm not looking for them, are you the same? You are the big housekeeper here, no one knows better than you."

Xie Fatty froze for a moment: "That line, brother, I'll go get some drink, and by the way, take a look at the accounts of these months."

The cost of Zhou Tian came only as a joke. He didn't expect the fat man to take it seriously, thinking that he really came to check the accounts. But he was still very happy in his heart.

Zhou Tiancheng just looked at it superficially. He is not an expert in this respect, and he does not rely on this club to make money, so he only roughly looked at the flow of every money.

"Fat man, what are you looking at? The expression is so relishing." Zhou Tiancheng looked up to see that Xie Fatzi's expression was very happy, with a full smile, so he was also very interested in walking to the computer.

"Brother, do you know what happened to the Champions League group a few days ago? That means Platini is the father of Lyon."

"Hear... fat man, it's okay to suggest that you watch less of the rumors on the Internet and keep your IQ." Of course, Zhou Tiancheng had heard that the game against Lyon was imminent, and naturally a reporter was very interested in his statement.

Xie Fatzi smiled and turned his head: "Brother Cheng, if you don't want to ignore it, I'm afraid it's really not good. This is the hottest post in our official website discussion area. Many fans are looking forward to your reply."

"True and false? Now the website is highly concerned?"

"That's for sure, it's Yang Ge's idea. Since you won the Champions League, he has been playing a wave of advertisements in the newspaper while we are hot. Our website visits are rubbing up. Now about you personally The sector is the most visited."

The fat man opened the discussion forum. Zhou Tiancheng saw that there were a lot of curious question posts under the "Schalke vs. Lyon" game trailer, which was old and high.

"Will Zhou be here and there?"

"I'm about to hit Platini's son, and I really want to know what his attitude is, but how can he be so low-key."

"Upstairs, it was withdrawn, Zhou did not express his position in front of the media, it is impossible to appear here..."

Judging from his name, Zhou Tiancheng sees that most of the current website visitors are local fans, which makes him aware of a problem. The club is built abroad~www.wuxiaspot.com~ If you want to interact effectively with Chinese fans, it is Questions. Although there is a social tool such as Weibo, he is not a Weibo expert, and he can't make more changes in time.

However, Zhou Tiancheng will not treat it differently. In view of the rising voice, Zhou Tiancheng asked Xie Fatzi to immediately verify an account for his real name. Since the public opinion is so, he can also satisfy everyone's curiosity.

"Fatty man, in a word, Platini cannot decide the game."

Fatty Xie froze for a moment, nodded and entered this sentence, and used his background administrator rights to top this post.

Zhou Tiancheng thought for a while and posted a Weibo with the same content. He knew that there was a lot of noise in Europe, and he must be paying attention to it in China.
