Green Field Eunuch

Chapter 26 The Unstoppable Force of Kaffinburg
April has arrived.

The 28th round of the league has begun.

In this match, Pflug fully realized the enormous motivation that money can bring to players.

LA Linz, who completely dominated Kaffinburg in their last match but unfortunately lost, are back at home with high spirits and eager to defeat Kaffinburg.

However, the Kaffinburg players were like they were on steroids, making fierce tackles and catching Linz off guard. Even Shan Yongzhuo, who is usually very lazy when it comes to running, was very active in this game.

His running also led to goals. In the first and second halves, Shan Yongzhuo scored a hat-trick, bringing his total number of goals to a terrifying 36.

Fiwanen and Scherger also scored a goal, and Kaffinburg defeated Linz 1-5 away from home.

In the next round, Kafenberg will host Red Bull Salzburg.

Kaffinburg and Red Bull are currently title contenders in the league, with a six-point gap between them. Moreover, in their previous three encounters, Kaffinburg only managed one draw and two losses, a disgrace considered a great humiliation by the Austrian Bundesliga's wealthy club.

Despite playing at Kaffinburg's home ground, they didn't care; they were looking for revenge.

Salzburg media outlets are all using the theme of revenge, hoping their team can defeat Kafenberg away from home to prove they are the strongest team in the Austrian Bundesliga and let Kafenberg know that their previous victory was just luck.

Salzburg striker Markjanko also wants to close the goal gap with Shan Yongzhuo while his team defeats Kafenberg.

Kafonburg also attaches great importance to this match, as it is the last meeting between the two sides this season. If they can defeat their opponent, the gap will be only 3 points, and Kafonburg will still have a chance.

Because Kafmburg has the advantage in both goal difference and head-to-head record.

Head coach Pflug developed a targeted strategy, arranged a series of training sessions, and gave individual instructions to each player on how to play in the match.

Pfluge said a lot, but it can be summarized in four words and one central idea: "defense and counter-attack".

Of course, the word "defense" has nothing to do with Shan Yongzhuo; he only needs to be responsible for the word "counterattack" and then put the ball into the opponent's goal.

During the match, Shan Yongzhuo was quite proactive. His stamina improved significantly, which allowed him to slightly change his somewhat lazy running on the field.

Of course, another reason is that Kafenberg was severely suppressed. The ball was at the feet of Salzburg Red Bull for most of the time. For most of the time, Shan Yongzhuo was actually bored up front. Even more bored than him was Salzburg Red Bull's goalkeeper, Bega.

Salzburg launched wave after wave of attacks, and their attacking ability was indeed quite good. In the 18th minute, Makjanko scored a header from a corner kick, helping the team take the lead away from home.

However, just five minutes later, Shan Yongzhuo found an opportunity. He ran into an opening on the right side of the penalty area and used his Mighty Vajra Leg skill to turn and shoot without stopping the ball. The ball went into the goal, just past the post.

Kaffinburg quickly equalized the score.

The second half begins.

Red Bull Salzburg were somewhat unable to accept the draw. They came to avenge their defeat and widen the points gap, not to settle for a draw. They are the league leaders, not a newly promoted team like Kaflenberg.

This is the arrogance of Red Bull Salzburg, a team with a lot of money.

So they intensified their offensive.

Red Bull's players are indeed stronger than Kaffinburg's, putting tremendous pressure on Kaffinburg's defense.

However, Red Bull did a good job on defense as well as offense.

They have a very tight blockade around the penalty area, and it is not easy to break through this defense by teamwork. Even with a whirlwind kick, it is not easy, because it is easy to be brought down by the opponent.

Kafonburg's counter-attacks can only attempt shots from outside the box, which is relatively inefficient, but Kafonburg doesn't have any better options.

In the following matches, Red Bull continued to dominate, while Kaffinburg played very passively, occasionally managing a counter-attack or two, but these were mostly long-range shots from outside the box.

Shan Yongzhuo also had a long-range shot.

It was a lob shot from about twenty meters away from the goal, but the opposing goalkeeper made a save. Although the shot was of high quality, it did not result in a goal.

"His shot was very accurate, but unfortunately it lacked power," the commentator said with great regret.

Shan Yongzhuo didn't take it seriously. He believed that opportunities would always come, and as long as he could seize them, he could win.

In the 86th minute, Shan Yongzhuo took another long-range shot, but it was blocked by the opposing goalkeeper, Bega, who was on high alert.

However, the next moment, Fiwanin got to the ball and unleashed a powerful follow-up shot. The goalkeeper, who was lying on the ground, had no chance, and the ball flew into the empty net.

"The ball is in!"

"Marcos Fiwaning!"

"He followed up with a shot and put the ball into the empty net!"

The match had reached the 86th minute, and the significance of this goal was self-evident. The Ficert Stadium erupted in cheers, their unrestrained shouts filling the stadium with an astonishing sound, and the air was filled with exhilarating shouts.

At this point, the competition had entered its final stage.

Red Bull used the remaining time to launch a relentless attack on Kaffinburg's half, with wave after wave of attacks as fierce as a tidal wave.

Dan Yongzhuo didn't have much energy left, so Pflug simply substituted him with a defender and then unleashed his ultimate move: a 10-0-0 formation.

With Shan Yongzhuo on the bench, he was unable to participate in the game and could only pray in his heart that the team could defend the goal.

This match is of great significance.

If Kaffinburg wins, they will be able to narrow the gap with Red Bull to 3 points.

Three points is just one game. If Kaffinburg can catch up in the next seven games, they can knock Red Bull off the top of the table.

Time flew by, and Salzburg Red Bull had no good way to break through Kaffinburg's valiant 10-0-0 formation.

Red Bull failed to score again until the very last minute.

When the referee blew the final whistle, cheers from the fans echoed throughout the Ficert Stadium.

That was the cheering of the Kaffinburg fans; they certainly knew what this match meant.

After the match, the media went wild.

The gap between Kaffinburg and Red Bull Salzburg has narrowed to 3 points, which is a very small difference.

The Austrian Bundesliga rarely sees such a fierce championship battle. In the past, it was usually Vienna or Rapid that established a large lead early on and then won the championship as a matter of course.

After Salzburg Red Bull's rise, they quickly won the championship in their first year, and their advantage at that time was not small.

However, Salzburg Red Bull relied on the aid of a wealthy tycoon, Kafenberg?

Why do they?
The media quickly discovered what they had the advantage of.

Shan Yongzhuo!
This goal brought Shan Yongzhuo's total to 37, which is an incredible number.

"This is a true genius!"

"He will be pursued by wealthy families this summer."

"Kaffinburg is vying for their first title in club history, but they also face the risk of losing their star player this summer!"

"..."

Austrian media lavished praise on Shan Yongzhuo, while also speculating that he would definitely leave in the summer.
