Star Coach

Chapter 40: Stinky Hands

In the second half, the Lübeck team immediately made a substitution. Duraf, who was beaten like a sieve, was replaced by another defensive midfielder to strengthen the central defense.

Jiangshan also followed the deployment of troops, replacing Pandel, the hero of the goal, to prepare for the next league game, and replaced him with Dorante, the captain of the team.

Kai's position moved to the left and became a left back. Lahn went to the middle to organize the attack. Next to him were Hitzlsperger and Staval. The central defense was still strong.

With the change of personnel, Hoffenheim's formation changed to 433, and the offensive rhythm changed accordingly, opening up space and focusing more on the two side attacks. And a bunch of defensive strong players were hoarded in the middle, and with the strength of Lübeck players, they could not penetrate at all.

Rashko covered his face and sighed, unable to turn the tide, and could only accept the bitter fruit of failure.

2:0, no one expected Hoffenheim to rebound so quickly, and it was to sacrifice the knife to the German second division team, and immediately got out of the predicament of the league failure.

Hoffenheim successfully entered the top 16 and earned another game. The players were excited, and Jiangshan was full of confidence. As long as they won the next game, they would be able to advance to the quarterfinals and achieve their goal.

The third round of the German Cup draw was announced, and there was widespread grief.

Jiangshan knew the news, and he was too lazy to scold Rothaus for his bad luck. He was drawn to Bayern Munich. Yes, not the amateur team of Bayern, but the first team. It was a life-or-death ending.

It was not said that there was no life or death, probably because the ball was round.

After knowing the news, Hope called Jiangshan and said, "Don't care about the result of the draw. I am very satisfied with the team's progress. Even if we lose, it doesn't matter. Bayern is not something we can challenge now."

"You said that, what else can I say?" Jiangshan smiled and hung up the phone. The boss was not optimistic, and the fans encouraged the team to play well on the field and accumulate experience.

It was the first time to participate in the German Cup, and we had advanced to the top 16. There was nothing to be embarrassed about. The opportunity to face Bayern was the result of the team's efforts. The opportunity was rare, so we should seize it well.

Jiangshan conveyed the boss's intention to the players to relieve their tension.

"It's just Bayern! What are you afraid of?" Wiese said carelessly, "I haven't been scored by Bayern yet! Haha..."

Tuchel has been busy and exhausted. His luck is too bad. Bayern? They have too many players. It is not an easy task to find all the data of the players. Jiangshan is straightforward. He doesn't care about the data of the veterans, but he must find all the information of the young people and substitutes.

Ryan makes a report on the situation of the major German teams every day, and Jiangshan pays more attention to Bayern. Their recent situation in the league is not very good. The veterans are struggling. It's time to upgrade.

Schweinsteiger has returned to the Bayern first team and has occupied the main substitute position. It is very likely that he will start when facing Hoffenheim. There are also Foirna and Misimovic who were demoted to the amateur team last time. They must also want to find an opportunity for revenge. With Jiangshan's understanding of Hitzfeld, he will arrange these people to play and give them the opportunity to bloodbath Hoffenheim.

Jiangshan speculated that Hitzfeld would not send too many veterans, and the frontcourt would be dominated by young people, but Bayern had too many strong players, and even if marginal players played, Hoffenheim would still be very difficult.

"Hoffenheim's German Cup journey is over. Unfortunately, I didn't see them reach the quarterfinals, which is a small regret." Matthäus, who had just retired, said on the show.

"Jiangshan is lucky. He drew the German second division team in two consecutive rounds of the German Cup. I can't see how he got through. But it doesn't matter, Bayern will teach him a lesson."

Leverkusen defender Babich didn't like Matthäus's statement, "The game hasn't started yet, and Hoffenheim has already lost. It's better not to play, just look at the team rankings."

"Hahaha... That's fine." Matthäus laughed, "At least, there is no upset against Bayern. Please put away your unrealistic fantasies."

"I also warn Jiangshan here that his good luck is over."

Mathäus's views represent the thoughts of most German media. Hoffenheim faces Bayern? There is no need to look at it, just one word: lose. The suspense of the game lies in how many goals Hoffenheim will lose.

Ryan cut a lot of German media's opinions and put them in a folder. He was in a bad mood, "Everyone says we are doomed to lose. Will we really lose?"

Jiangshan flipped through a few pictures casually. Matthäus was once an important member of Bayern. His maintenance of his old club was as meticulous as Huggies.

"What they said is right. We have about a 5% chance of winning." Jiangshan said with a smile, "The team's strength is there."

In the next few league games, Hoffenheim continued its good momentum, won 4 consecutive victories, and kept close to the top team. The team's running-in has also reached a higher level.

Tuchel looked at the German Cup appearance list and asked worriedly, "Do we really have to play with all the main players? What if the players get injured and it affects the league?"

"Strategic abandonment?" Jiang Shan asked back, "There is no word of surrender in my dictionary. Even if it is Bayern, isn't it good to give players the opportunity to improve themselves?"

Tuchel shook his head, "I don't feel very good, the league is more important. If we are promoted this year, there will be plenty of opportunities to face Bayern in the future, so there is no need to fight this time."

"Don't talk nonsense to me, have you found all the data I asked you to find?"

"I have done it, I have analyzed the usual techniques of each player for you." Tuchel talked about his work with ease.

Hitzfeld was also very careful. He didn't think Jiangshan would sit there and wait for death, and he thought Jiangshan would think of a sneak attack.

"Damn guy, you rejected my invitation. Now let me get the chance, I won't let you go." He decided to beat Jiangshan to pieces to relieve the embarrassment of being rejected.

He carefully observed the players' status and carefully prepared the lineup. Of course, it was still mainly young people. It was impossible to play all the main players against a low-level team. This was too much of a compliment to Hoffenheim.

In the eyes of Bayern, being stolen by Hoffenheim was considered a failure of the game. Hoffenheim must be shut out and slaughtered by a large score to kill Jiangshan's spirit.

Schweinsteiger, Foirna and Misimovic were all selected by Hitzfeld as starting players, mainly to let them vent their anger. In the first round of the German Southern League, Bayern's amateur team lost to Hoffenheim, and the opportunity for revenge has come.

When the news reached China, Jiangshan fans also cried out in grief, "It's over, the German Cup is over."

"No matter how powerful Jiangshan is, can it beat Bayern? Impossible, just admit defeat, and don't let the players get hurt."

"Hoffenheim is so pitiful, they actually met Bayern, damn Rothaus, what a stinky hand."

"Alas... I hope it won't affect the league, I like Hoffenheim very much, after all, our coach is a Chinese."

"If they lose by less than 3 points, Hoffenheim will win." Well, countless fans agree with this view. The gap between the new recruits of the German Southern League and the Bundesliga giants is more than three levels, and there is no way to play at all!

CCTV decided to broadcast this game.
