The God of Football starts with passive skills

Chapter 70 A Heartbreaking and Tremendous Defeat! A Head-to-Head Attack Against Bayern! The Locker Room Detective! You're Not Neuer!

In the TV dramas that Wang Shuo watched, it often rained when the male protagonist was in pain and sad.

At the very least, let the clouds gather and let the emotions build up.

But on this night in Dortmund, the moon was bright and the stars were few, and the weather was fine.

I'm definitely not the male lead as rumored!

Wang Shuo sighed inwardly.

Before the match at Westfalenstadion, everyone at Dortmund was mentally prepared.

This game might be lost.

Including Wang Shuo.

But he never imagined that the team would lose like this.

Real Madrid coach Pellegrini deployed a 4-2-3-1 formation.

Goalkeeper: Casillas;

Defense: Marcelo, Ramos, Pepe, and Arbeloa;

Midfield: Xabi Alonso and Lass Diarra form the double pivot, with Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaká and Higuaín in front;
Forward: Benzema.

This can be considered one of the most powerful lineups in world football today!

Dortmund is also on high alert.

The Real Madrid stars seem to be holding back a lot of anger.

Perhaps it's dissatisfaction with the club.

I feel that we should arrange a friendly match like this during the national team training camp.

So, they were kicking with all their might.

Real Madrid broke through Dortmund's goal just 3 minutes into the game.

Lass Diarra passed the ball to Kaká, who backheeled it to Ronaldo, who unleashed a powerful shot inside the penalty area. The ball went between Weidenfeller's legs and rolled into the goal.

Two minutes later, Real Madrid won a free kick in the attacking third, and Ronaldo's direct free kick almost pierced Dortmund's goal again.

Bumblebees aren't exactly pushovers either.

Wang Shuo and his teammates immediately intensified their pressing and launched an attack.

But it's not a threat.

The young Borussia Dortmund team faced the formidable Real Madrid and simply couldn't find an effective solution.

In the 15th minute, Marcelo dribbled past three players on the left wing and delivered a cross, which Ronaldo headed into the goal from inside the penalty area, extending Real Madrid's lead once again.

Dortmund are indeed very good at tackling, and they are very dedicated to it.

But Real Madrid's passing was too fast.

Moreover, Dortmund players are not yet familiar enough with this kind of overall pressing and pressure, and their teamwork is not smooth enough.

Real Madrid often manages to move the ball out with just one or two passes, allowing Ronaldo, Benzema, Kaká, and Higuaín to unleash their individual abilities and end the game directly.

What about Dortmund?
The double pivot of Lass Diarra and Xabi Alonso firmly controlled the midfield.

Unable to get through the middle, they have to rely more on the side lanes.

However, Dortmund didn't have a good solution when the ball moved from the flanks to the center.

With Pepe and Ramos working together, Wang Shuo had a very difficult time winning the ball.

Real Madrid's two center-backs possess speed, physicality, and skill.

More importantly, they all played very dirty.

That kind of filth isn't just crudeness, it's more about using every possible means to torment you.

He might pretend to bump you with his elbow unintentionally; it might seem like nothing, but it actually hurts.

Whether it was Pepe or Ramos, every defensive move they made looked like they were aiming for Wang Shuo's feet.

Especially with their fierce and menacing appearance, they practically wanted to cripple Wang Shuo.

And what about the teammates?

They were cut off by Real Madrid's defense and found it difficult to connect with Wang Shuo.

After 20 minutes, Dortmund started crossing the ball from the wings or making long passes from the back.

This makes it difficult to leverage Wang Shuo's strengths.

Just before the end of the first half, Benzema received the ball in the attacking third, pushed past Hummels, broke into the penalty area, and crossed the ball in front of the goal.

Kaka made a late run and slotted the ball past Dortmund's goalkeeper.

3 is better than 0!

After the break in the second half, Kaká quickly scored another goal for Real Madrid.

Just before the end of the match, substitute Raul also had a shooting opportunity, securing the victory for Real Madrid.

In the end, the score was a staggering 5-0!

Real Madrid thrashed Borussia Dortmund at the Westfalenstadion!

……

The moment the referee blew the final whistle, Wang Shuo stood dejectedly in the center circle.

Sweat poured out like a fountain.

But he still couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Some say that every great team must experience a devastating defeat.

Maybe.

But nobody likes losing a game like that.

Especially in front of more than 8 Borussia Dortmund fans.

Everyone knew that this was just a friendly match, or even an exhibition match.

Both sides made five substitutions.

But so what?

The game was lost so badly that Real Madrid didn't even have the ability to fight back.

Shame on you!
If he could, Wang Shuo would even like to crawl right down into the grass at Westfalenstadion.

Before the match, he was still thinking about saying hello to Kaká, meeting up with Ronaldo, and also Raúl, Benzema, Xabi Alonso, Higuaín...

But right now, he's not in the mood for it at all.

As Xabi Alonso passed by Wang Shuo, he reached out and patted Wang Shuo's shoulder reassuringly before walking past without saying a word.

Kaka was a good person; he gently patted Wang Shuo on the back without saying much.

Real Madrid's stars may or may not have heard of Wang Shuo; it doesn't matter to them.

After playing 90 minutes, they packed up their things as if they had finished a job, chatting and laughing as they left the stadium to report back to their national teams.

The Westfalenstadion was left in complete disarray!
They never took Dortmund seriously!
there has never been!

The stadium managers are preparing to enter and tidy up the field.

The Dortmund players were still standing on the field and on the sidelines, looking very uncomfortable.

They became the 3rd in the Bundesliga!

This is Dortmund's best league start in recent years.

Although it's only temporary.

Unexpectedly, they proved to be so vulnerable and easily defeated in front of Real Madrid's superstars!
Wang Shuo ambitiously stated that he wants to become the strongest player in the world, just like Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaká.

But tonight, he was utterly defeated!
Pepe and Ramos rendered him ineffective!

"This is a match that should never have existed!"

Assistant coach Buvac roared and vented his anger on the sidelines, yelling at Klopp and losing control of his emotions.

"Our team's average age is only 23 years old. We're so young, the team isn't fully integrated yet, and our tactical coordination isn't even that good. How can we just take them out and compete with Real Madrid?"

"Now look what's happened, we've been kicked like this, what are we going to do?"

Klopp didn't know what to do either.

This was an outcome no one could have predicted.

Under normal circumstances, since it's a friendly match, both sides will give each other some face.

For example, let Dortmund score a goal.

Or perhaps Real Madrid could go easy on their team to make the result more appealing.

After all, it's Dortmund's centenary today.

But the result?

After Real Madrid came on, they played like crazy, scoring 5 goals in one go.

Klopp himself is very clear about this.

His team is not afraid of Bayern.

That's because Bayern's ball control isn't strong enough!

Dortmund is at a significant disadvantage when facing teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​who possess top-tier passing and ball control abilities.

Moreover, the team has just gone through a week of two matches and is in relatively poor form.

As the head coach, Klopp didn't even know how to appease his players.

But he could understand Buvac's concerns.

If Real Madrid completely breaks your mentality, that season will be really tough!
……

Wang Shuo took a deep breath.

He tilted his head back and vigorously wiped the sweat from his face with both hands.

Although he was still very, very upset, he was not that fragile and not that easily defeated.

He strode towards Reus, who was closest to him.

The kid was lying face down on the grass, his shoulders trembling slightly, as if he were crying.

"Aren't you uncomfortable? If your face gets cut by grass, you'll be disfigured."

Wang Shuo walked over and gently patted Royce's head.

"Get up, the game is over!"

After speaking, Wang Shuo walked to Grosskreutz on the other side.

The guy was sitting on the ground with his forehead resting on his knees.

"Kevin, come on, don't sit there."

Upon hearing Wang Shuo's voice, Grosskreutz looked up and saw Wang Shuo.

At this moment, Wang Shuo still had a smile on his face.

Although the smile was somewhat forced, it was enough.

Wang Shuo walked towards Sahin, towards Sven Bender, towards Hummels, towards Subotic...

He helped each of his teammates up.

Head coach Klopp and captain Kehl also came in from the sidelines.

Together with Wang Shuo, they helped their teammates up, and everyone walked to the sidelines.

As they bowed to the fans in the stands to express their gratitude, the Dortmund fans applauded them.

The song "You'll Never Walk Alone" played in the stands of Westfalenstadion.

Reus couldn't hold back and burst into tears.

Wang Shuo and Kyle led their teammates from stand to stand, thanking all the fans present.

Finally, they stood in the middle of the field, thanked everyone, and then left the field.

Even from inside the players' tunnel, they could still hear the fans singing outside.

They kept singing, kept singing...

"I'm sorry, everyone, there was a problem with our arrangements for this match!"

Watzke and Zorc went to the locker room and apologized to all the players.

It's hard to say whose fault it is.

After all, this match was decided a long time ago.

And it was just an exhibition match.

No one expected that they would lose so badly.

On the club's centenary, Real Madrid thrashed the club 5-0 at the Westfalenstadion, a joke that will surely be spread by the media in Germany, Europe, and even the world.

……

On his way back to Lükelnburg, Wang Shuo deliberately avoided the route he took every day.

Because it's currently the peak time for people to leave.

There must be a lot of Borussia Dortmund fans on the subway.

Wang Shuo didn't know how he should react when he saw them.

He deliberately chose to walk on dark, deserted roads.

Yes, don't run, just walk slowly.

He was not defeated!
But he is not a machine without feelings or emotional fluctuations.

He needs some time to lick his wounds.

Especially before this match, he had high expectations for himself and for Borussia Dortmund.

But as it turns out, he was wrong!
Compared to players like Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaká, he's not strong enough!

Compared to Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​Borussia Dortmund is not strong enough!

Of course, he wouldn't admit defeat.

Give him one night, and tomorrow morning he will continue his assault on Ronaldo, Kaká, and Messi!

I don't know how long it took.

When he got home, a familiar BMW was parked in front of his house.

Lena Gerke wore a white long-sleeved shirt and white denim shorts, shamelessly showing off her stunningly long and beautiful legs, exuding a very capable and fashionable aura.

Upon hearing footsteps, the blonde woman standing next to the car turned around and saw Wang Shuo.

Where did you go?

She rushed up to me eagerly, "I've searched this road three times, but I still can't find you!"

"Where's the phone? Why didn't you answer?"

Wang Shuo didn't answer, but simply picked up the shoulder bag behind him.

After entering the locker room, he put his phone on silent and left it in his shoulder bag, forgetting to take it out.

"Don't you have a key? Why didn't you go inside and wait?"

As he spoke, Wang Shuo took out his key from his bag and went to open the door.

After entering the house and turning on the lights, Wang Shuo went into the kitchen first, and when he came out, he was carrying two bottles of water.

"Weren't you going to Milan? I thought you wouldn't be coming to the game tonight."

Lina Gerke also noticed his low spirits and smiled slightly.

"I rushed back this afternoon."

"Is your work over there going well?"

"It's nothing, just normal work. I'm going to London the day after tomorrow."

Wang Shuo discovered that she was actually quite busy.

The main reason is that the company assigned her a very intensive workload.

As the first winner selected by Heidi Klum's company in the German Supermodel Contest, she received a great deal of resources and naturally deserved a corresponding return.

But she has always worked very hard.

The two are actually quite similar; they're both workaholics.

Because they all came from rural and mountain villages.

Perhaps because of this, the two had a particularly good impression of each other.

Perhaps seeing that Wang Shuo wasn't very interested, Lina Gerke tried to avoid talking about football and changed the subject instead.

"By the way, you told me last time that your hometown is a famous clothing city in China, is that true?"

Wang Shuo answered her question as expected, "Strictly speaking, it's our provincial capital, very famous, with many brands."

Do you have any friends in the high-end clothing industry? Introduce me to them; I'd like to contact a contract manufacturer.

"OEM manufacturer?"

"Yes, I plan to launch my own clothing brand."

"real or fake?"

"Of course, I can't always work for a company. I need to have my own career. And now that I know so many people in the fashion industry, I naturally need to integrate these resources."

“I have a plan. I’ll start with clothing. If that works out, I’ll gradually expand to other categories. I’ve also got a team in place, including a very good designer friend of mine. I think she’s incredibly talented.”

Wang Shuo was stunned.

Lina Gerke is only 20 years old, but she has already started her own business.

not simple!
Are you sure you want to find a contract manufacturer in China?

"Of course, I've inquired and found that there is a very obvious cost advantage in China, and the quality is also very good. Of course, the premise is that you have to contact a reliable OEM manufacturer."

Wang Shuo nodded. "I'll ask around for you, but I don't know anything about this. You'll need to arrange for someone to go to the site to investigate."

“Of course.” Lina Gerke laughed.

Seeing her happy made Wang Shuo feel much better too.

How many people are in your studio now?

"Including me, there are 3."

"Only 3?"

"Yes, not too many. A designer, a photographer, and me, the boss, product selector, creative director, sales director, marketing director, finance director... and the spokesperson and official model."

Hearing her list of so many titles for herself in one go, Wang Shuo couldn't help but laugh.

"Your company is pretty shabby."

"There's nothing I can do. Don't be fooled by how glamorous I look now. In reality, I haven't made much money in the past few years."

After a pause, she sat up straight and said confidently, "But don't worry, I have a lot of confidence in this company, and it will be branded using my name, called LeGer."

They are all the first few letters of her name.

This demonstrates her determination to start her own business.

"So, are you planning to open a shop?"

"We will not open stores for the time being and will focus on online sales."

"Online e-commerce?"

"Yes, that would require much less investment."

"Are you planning to locate the office in Berlin? Or Munich?"

"Neither, I plan to put it in Düsseldorf."

Wang Shuo was somewhat surprised.

According to his understanding, Berlin has a fashion week, Munich is also quite good, and at least Frankfurt and Hamburg are all suitable.

Why Düsseldorf?

Lina Gerke did not answer immediately, but looked at him silently, which stirred something within him.

"Because that way I can be closer to you."

As she spoke, her eyes were fixed intently on Wang Shuo.

Aside from the female fan who hugged him that morning, this was the first time Wang Shuo had ever been confessed to in person by a girl like this.

He was a little lost, wanting to look away from her, but he couldn't.

This seemed to give her great encouragement.

She slowly moved closer and closer, until she could hear her breath.

But the pause was merely a test of her inner unease.

When she was sure that Wang Shuo was neither resisting nor dodging, she pounced on him more bravely, cupped his cheeks in her hands, and kissed him forcefully.

She even couldn't help but sit on his lap.

Wang Shuo had never experienced anything like this before.

On the field, with the support of the continental-level "Breathing" technique, he can run for 90 minutes straight.

But at this moment, just a kiss, in just a few minutes, made his heart race and his breath catch in his throat.

"I'm covered in sweat. Let's take a break for now and then I'll go take a shower," Wang Shuo said, panting heavily.

Lina Gerke was also panting heavily, but after hearing Wang Shuo's words, she hugged Wang Shuo's head again and whispered in his ear, "Finish my first game first, and I'll help you wash up later."

Wang Shuo instantly lost control!
He really wanted to score!

……

The next morning, Wang Shuo did not tweet at 5 a.m. for the first time.

So much so that his fans left comments on his last tweet, expressing their concern for his condition.

However, most people believe that he was upset because of the team's crushing defeat to Real Madrid the previous day, which is why he woke up late.

Everyone at Dortmund was equally puzzled.

Because Wang Shuo arrived right on time.

From the security guards to the staff and coaches, everyone in Strobelal looked at Wang Shuo with surprise.

It's like seeing the sun rise in the west.

"Something's wrong!"

"It's so wrong!"

In the locker room, the more Feulner thought about it, the more something seemed off.

"Something's not right?" Royce, Wang Shuo's biggest fan, was very concerned about his boss.

"Didn't you guys notice? He used to run here, and when he got to the training field, he was covered in sweat. But today he's very clean, and he even smells of soap. It's obvious that he took a shower at home before going out, and he didn't run here."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately turned their heads to look at Wang Shuo.

Wang Shuo's heart skipped a beat.

What the hell!

Are all people with the surname Fu this awesome?
How could he have noticed that?

It's a shame he didn't become a detective!

"Your Majesty, who brought you here?" Foyle asked the question that everyone was curious about.

Wang Shuo wanted to laugh, but didn't dare.

"Look at his expression right now, it's so flamboyant, everything is so strange!"

Wang Shuo really wanted to ask: Did I... did I make it that obvious?
After Foyle's meticulous analysis, everyone realized that Wang Shuo was indeed acting quite strangely today.

Just then, Klopp walked in from outside. He looked at everyone, then at Wang Shuo, and casually asked what had happened.

"Wang, who was the girl who drove you here in her BMW this morning?"

Everyone suddenly realized.

What the hell!

“Just as I expected, Your Majesty, you’ve confessed!” Foylener said with a laugh. “Is it Lina Gerke?”

"Lina Gerke? That top supermodel who's known as the dream girl of German men?"

"Really? Wang, when did you meet her?"

"My God, you two are really together?"

Did she stay at your house last night?

"It's over, it's over, my heart is broken!"

"It's not just you; countless German men's hearts are broken!"

Klopp himself was taken aback.

Hearing the groans of the players around him, he was completely bewildered.

Can anyone tell me if I've inadvertently missed something?
……

Professional athletes must all possess a degree of self-regulation.

That is to get out of the shadow of defeat in the shortest possible time.

No team can go without losing.

The key question is, what do you do after losing a game?
The best way is to win a game as soon as possible!
The biggest difference between Dortmund and Mainz is that the number of national team players is not on the same level.

When it's time for the national team training camp, the national team players all go to report to the national team, and the training ground is much quieter than usual.

Borussia Dortmund's next opponent is Louis van Gaal's Bayern Munich.

They are the strongest team in the Bundesliga this season, bar none!

In addition to the humiliating 0-5 home defeat to Real Madrid, Borussia Dortmund received another piece of very bad news.

That is, the team's captain, Sebastian Kehl, was injured during the friendly match against Real Madrid.

Kyle was substituted midway through that game.

After the game, he and Wang Shuo led their teammates to thank the fans.

But the situation deteriorated rapidly.

After the match, accompanied by the team doctor, he went to the hospital for a check-up, where he was diagnosed with a severe injury to the adductor muscle in his left thigh.

It is still uncertain how long it will take for him to return to play.

Kehl's injury is definitely very bad news for Dortmund.

He is not only the team captain, but also a defensive stalwart who drops back in midfield.

With Kehl injured, only Sven Bender remains as the midfielder-defender.

Hummels can also play in this position, but he is a center-back.

Borussia Dortmund is currently facing a series of misfortunes.

The crushing defeat and injuries dealt a double blow, leaving the entire team feeling extremely depressed.

After news of Kehl's injury was reported, bookmakers continued to raise the odds for Dortmund.

Both public opinion and the current situation are extremely unfavorable for Borussia Dortmund.

In addition to discussing strategies with the coaching staff, Klopp also occasionally called the players who stayed with the team for training to his office.

He hopes to gain a better understanding of the players' mentality through communication and encourage them to perform better in the upcoming matches.

But the team's current situation is obvious.

"What do you think about us changing our tactics and playing a 4-3-3 formation?" Klopp asked tentatively.

"I also can."

Wang Shuo naturally had no objections.

But soon, he figured out another meaning.

Bayern Munich is now playing a 4-3-3 formation.

Goalkeeper: Butt;
Defense: Pranjic, Badstuber, Van Buyten, and Lahm;
Midfield: Tymoshchuk plays deep, with Schweinsteiger and Van Bommel in front;
Forwards: Ribery, Gomez and Robben.

This is the starting lineup that Klopp and his coaching staff have speculated about for Bayern Munich in this match.

And it's pretty much certain.

Unless these players suffer injuries while playing for their national teams, they will almost always play.

Kehl's injury will have a significant impact on Dortmund's midfield.

Switching to a 4-3-3 formation clearly indicates an intention to engage in an attacking style of play against Bayern.

This is also in line with Klopp's consistent style.

The question is, can the midfield hold up?

“Shaheen, Sven Bender, and Tinga, do you think it can work?”

Klopp asked with a concerned look.

As a player, Wang Shuo has the deepest understanding of the midfield's strength.

"For the left flank, use Grosskreutz; for the right flank, use Kuba," Wang Shuo suggested.

Although Reus is a big fan of Dortmund, from the perspective of the team's interests, Dortmund desperately needs to defeat Bayern and win this match. Therefore, Wang Shuo's suggestion is based on rational and objective considerations.

“I’ve played a few games against Bayern and watched Bayern’s games this season under Van Gaal’s management. I noticed that his use of Schweinsteiger is different from before.”

Klinsmann employed a double defensive midfield setup, with Van Bommel partnering with Schweinsteiger.

Van Gaal adopted a 4-3-3 formation, with Tymoshchuk added behind him.

The goal is simple: to further activate the two flanks, namely Ribery and Robben.

Both players are good at cutting inside, especially Robben on the right wing.

If another attacking midfielder (number 10) is added, the attacking third will become too crowded.

Why use a 4-3-3 formation?
Everyone thinks that Van Gaal wants to replicate the Dutch 4-3-3 formation at Bayern Munich.

“I think it might also be related to Bayern’s lack of creativity in midfield, so he often pushes Schweinsteiger forward to participate in ball control,” Wang Shuo said, describing his observation.

He made the comparison by combining the games from last season and this season.

"You're absolutely right!" Klopp exclaimed with admiration.

The fact that this can be observed proves that Wang Shuo is the kind of player who plays with his brain.

“Schweinsteiger is not suitable for this role, so I’m considering having Tinga specifically try to snatch him away!”

If Dortmund were to play a 4-3-3 formation, it would definitely be Sven Bender or Mats Hummels dropping deep, Sahin on the left, and Tinga on the right.

In Bayern's 4-3-3 formation, Schweinsteiger was on the left flank, directly opposite Tinga.

Tinga, who is only 1.7 meters tall, is known for his speed and ability to grab rebounds.

Moreover, as a Brazilian player, Tinga's passing ability is also quite good after winning the ball.

Of course, it wouldn't work if he were to play as a sweeper.

He's not the kind of player who can hold his position; he's more like a hunting dog.

“Van Gaal’s decision to play 4-3-3 was a last resort. He has Ribery, Gomez and Robben on his hands, but in reality, he is not satisfied with Gomez.”

Gomez is a very traditional German center forward.

He has an excellent goal-scoring ability, but apart from scoring goals, his contribution to the attack is minimal.

Some media reports say that Van Gaal and Gomez had a disagreement when they first met.

Later, Van Gaal praised Olic on more than one occasion.

Who is Oliqi?

One statistic is enough to tell you his characteristics.

Among Bundesliga strikers last season, Wang Shuo averaged 12 kilometers per game.

Following Wang Shuo is Oliqi, who averages 11 kilometers per game.

These two are far ahead.

But Van Gaal really liked Olic.

This is exactly the same as Klopp's approach.

However, at Bayern Munich, Gomez is the one who is truly politically correct.

In addition, Bayern Munich is now using every means to promote young player Thomas Müller.

For example, not long ago, Thomas Müller and the elder Müller were arranged to participate in a television event together.

Two generations of Müller have come together, and the elder Müller, who is currently coaching Bayern Munich's youth team, also speaks highly of Thomas Müller.

Therefore, Wang Shuo is now absolutely certain that his decision not to choose Bayern Munich was a brilliant one!
Otherwise, Olic's current situation is his predicament.

"Do you think we can win?" Klopp asked, looking at Wang Shuo.

Wang Shuo did not hesitate, but looked at the head coach with confidence.

"Whether I can win or not, I don't know, but as long as the team keeps passing the ball to me, I will definitely be able to beat Bayern!"

"Just like that German Cup final last season!"

When Klopp mentioned that final, a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.

That was the game he was most proud of in his coaching career so far.

Wang Shuo scored a hat trick!
"Then it's decided!"

Klopp has never been a hesitant person.

"Kyle will definitely miss the first half of the season, and may even miss most of the season."

"The captain's armband will be handed over to Weidenfeller."

Weidenfeller is the team's current vice-captain; he joined Borussia Dortmund in 2002.

“But, Your Majesty, I hope you can play a greater role.”

“You are very clear about the team’s current situation, and in our team, I think you are the most suitable candidate to lead your teammates!”

Wang Shuo sensed the high expectations Klopp had for him, and he nodded emphatically.

……

For the next week or so, Dortmund players without national team duties were busy preparing for the match.

Wang Shuo also practiced even more diligently.

During this period, Wang Shuo's life underwent a slight change.

Lina Gerke moved into the small villa he had rented.

The two began a shameless cohabitation.

But this did not affect Wang Shuo's self-discipline at all.

He still leaves home at 5 a.m. every morning.

He was surprised to find that some of the statements on the internet were actually lies.

The woman did not affect his self-discipline and speed; on the contrary, she made him more motivated.

Incidentally, he also invested in Lina Gerke's studio.

It wasn't because the two of them were together, but because Wang Shuo felt that this business seemed to have a promising future.

Moreover, the investment is not large.

As an angel investor, he invested 50 euros and acquired a 40% stake.

Lena Gerke owns 51%, and the remaining 9% was given to her designer friend.

At Lina Gerke's request, personal feelings were separate from business, and the two parties signed a contract to establish a company in Düsseldorf.

Wang Shuo will definitely not get involved in specific matters; his real career is playing football.

After the two-week national team matches ended, the national team players from each team returned to their respective clubs.

At that moment, the Munich Evening News published a news article.

French international Franck Ribéry is likely to miss the match against Borussia Dortmund.

reason?

He had previously clashed with Van Gaal. The Munich Evening News revealed that Van Gaal believed Ribery was overworked in the national team and could not sustain a 90-minute match.

In addition, German international Miroslav Klose is confirmed not to travel with the team to Dortmund.

This immediately sparked discussion in the German media.

Dortmund were also confused by this smokescreen, unable to tell what was really going on.

Klopp decided that the team would prepare at its own pace, unaffected by Bayern Munich.

During this national team training camp, none of the Dortmund players were troubled by injuries.

After returning to the club, things went quite well.

On the afternoon of September 12, the day after the national team players returned to the team, Borussia Dortmund hosted Bayern Munich at home.

……

"To all football fans watching on TV, this is Borussia Dortmund's Westfalenstadion."

"We are now broadcasting live the fifth round of the 2009/10 Bundesliga season, with Borussia Dortmund hosting Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich at the Westfalenstadion."

"Now we see both teams set up their formations in their respective halves."

"The team wearing yellow jerseys is the home team, Borussia Dortmund."

"Their starting lineup for this match is 4-3-3."

Goalkeeper: Weidenfeller;
Defense: Dede, Hummels, Subotic and Owomoyela;

Midfield: Sven Bender is the deep-lying midfielder, and Sahin and Tinga are the forwards;
Forwards: Grosskreutz, Wang Shuo, and Kuba.

"Dortmund's captain Kehl suffered an adductor injury before this match, which will likely keep him out for several months. This will have a significant impact on Dortmund."

"So in this match, Klopp started the young player Sven Bender."

"The team wearing red jerseys is Bayern Munich."

"Van Gaal is also fielding a 4-3-3 formation tonight."

Goalkeeper: Butt;
Defense: Pranjic, Badstuber, Van Buyten, and Lahm;
Midfield: Tymoshchuk plays deep, with Schweinsteiger and Van Bommel in front;
Forwards: Ribery, Gomez and Robben.

"It should be said that, purely from the perspective of squad strength, Bayern Munich has an overwhelming advantage."

"Especially with two world-class superstars, Ribery and Robben, Bayern Munich is even more formidable."

"Van Gaal kept throwing out smokescreens at the pre-match press conference, saying that Ribery could not meet the physical requirements of a 90-minute match and would not start, but the Frenchman still appeared in the starting lineup."

"Van Gaal said he believes Bayern can win this game away from home."

"Bayern Munich will now kick off first."

……

The moment Gomez kicked the ball back into his own half, Wang Shuo sprinted forward at top speed.

He rushed straight at Schweinsteiger.

Gomez passed the ball to Schweinsteiger first.

Seeing Wang Shuo rushing towards him, the little pig didn't dare to be careless and immediately passed the message back.

Wang Shuo, however, did not slow down and quickly crossed the center line, heading straight for Badstuber.

Badstuber had played against Wang Shuo in the U19 competition and was particularly impressed by the Chinese striker.

So, before Wang Shuo could get close, he immediately made a cross pass to Van Buyten.

Wang Shuo sprinted at top speed, and after seeing Badstuber pass the ball, he immediately made an L-shaped turn, veering sideways towards Van Buyten.

At this moment, Dortmund's midfield and defense are also pushing forward aggressively.

Before Van Buyten could even get the ball, he saw Wang Shuo rushing towards him.

And it's very fast.

The Belgian glanced at Tymoshchuk and Van Bommel ahead, hesitating whether to pass the ball to them.

But in the end, when he stopped the ball with his right foot, he turned around, blocked Wang Shuo with his body, and kicked the ball to Lahm on the right.

Wang Shuo almost collided with Van Buyten.

Fortunately, he braked in time, thus avoiding a horrific car accident.

But soon, he moved around to Van Buyten's front.

As soon as Lahm stopped the ball, Grosskreutz was already in front of him.

The Bayern defender receives the ball close to the sideline.

Because of Wang Shuo's positioning, Lahm was unable to pass back to Van Buyten, nor did he dare to pass back to goalkeeper Butt.

Finally, Lahm chipped the ball along the sideline past Grosskreutz, intending to pass it to Robben, who had dropped back to receive it.

As Robben retreated to stop the ball, Sven Bender rushed over, forcefully pushed Robben aside with his body, and blocked the ball out of bounds with his foot.

Bayern's throw-in.

At this point, only 9 seconds had passed in the game!
The entire Westfalenstadion was filled with the cheers of Borussia Dortmund fans.

When Lahm stood on the sidelines, ready to throw the ball in, all the Dortmund players pressed forward.

Finally, Tymoshchuk rushed over to receive the ball and passed it back to Lahm.

Lahm tried to clear the ball with a long kick, but Grosskreutz blocked it out of bounds.

But Bayern Munich is no pushover either.

Lahm quickly passed the ball to Van Buyten in the back line.

It was then passed to Van Bommel, and then to Lahm.

The latter seized an opportunity and delivered a through pass.

Robben surged forward at lightning speed, crossed the halfway line, and caught up with Van Bommel's pass.

The Dutch are very fast.

Although Dede made timely defensive recovery, he couldn't stop Robben at all.

The Black Mamba dribbled down the right flank at breakneck speed, and just outside the right corner of the penalty area, he slowed down, attempting to cut inside.

But it was at this moment that Grosskreutz sprinted all the way back to his position in time.

Robben clearly saw the cross and immediately changed his mind, suddenly veering towards the baseline.

Dede heard the Grand Cross's shout, but did not change position; he remained right next to Robben.

The two rushed towards the finish line at the same time.

Ultimately, Robben's cross was weak and easily blocked by Hummels, who was in position in time, and went out of bounds.

This attack didn't result in a shot on goal, but it was dangerous.

Robben's dribbling attack on the right wing still gave Dortmund a real scare.

This is the skill of a world-class winger!

Bayern then won two consecutive corner kicks.

If Dortmund started aggressively, Bayern quickly responded in kind.

"Both teams played at a very fast pace from the very beginning."

"Both sides are clearly holding nothing back."

"Although it's only been two minutes, we can already tell that this will be an exciting, fast-paced attacking battle!"

"This aligns perfectly with the football philosophies of Van Gaal and Klopp."

Neither of these head coaches is the conservative type.

"Look at Bayern's attack this time, it's another corner kick."

"This is the third corner kick in a row."

However, after Ribery took the corner kick, Subotic quickly headed it out of the penalty area.

Sven Bender kicked the ball forward to clear it.

This clearance was ill-advised; it wasn't a pass to Wang Shuo.

Badstuber passed the ball forward from the right side of the center circle, aiming to find Robben on the right flank.

However, Sahin timely blocked the passing lane from the bottom right side of the center circle in Dortmund's half.

Wang Shuo was standing in the center circle.

When he saw that Shahin had successfully intercepted the ball, he first glanced at Badstuber to the side before turning away.

At this moment, the positions of Badstuber and Van Buyten had already caught Wang Shuo's eye.

He immediately raised his right hand, pointed to the right front, and sprinted out at top speed.

Sahin also saw the line and sent a long diagonal pass with his left foot.

Wang Shuo instantly increased his speed to the maximum, and at the same time, he turned around to look at the trajectory of the ball.

Although he was behind Van Buyten when he started, Sahin's passing route and landing point were more advantageous to him.

But when Wang Shuo turned around, he found that Bayern's goalkeeper Butt had rushed out of his goal!
Oops!

If things continue like this, Butt will definitely get the ball.

How to do?
In that instant, Wang Shuo's mind raced.

Everything on the field, including the actions of Van Buyten, Butt, Badstuber, and others, was vividly clear in his mind.

[Eagle Eye] allows him to see everything in great detail, while [Initiative] enables him to deduce his opponent's next move.

A sudden inspiration struck him, and he continued rushing forward without slowing down.

Butt rushed out of the penalty area, and even almost out of the 30-meter zone.

He can't use his hands anymore!

But this was a long pass.

Therefore, Butt's choice was to kick the ball away directly with his foot.

There were Bayern players all around, so as long as the ball wasn't at Wang Shuo's feet, there was basically no danger.

In the instant Wang Shuo made his move, he seemed to see Schalke 04's goalkeeper Neuer.

That guy who likes to rush out of the penalty area all the time!

He caused Wang Shuo a lot of trouble, but he was also completely outmaneuvered by Wang Shuo.

Wang Shuo had a particularly deep impression of him.

Unfortunately, Butt, you are not Neuer!
To Butt's utter surprise, Wang Shuo actually made the first move.

The inside of his right foot touched the soccer ball in mid-air and stopped it to his left.

After stopping the ball, Wang Shuo immediately slowed down to avoid colliding with Butt, and at the same time turned to his left.

Wang Shuo stopped the football.

This was originally Van Buyten's area.

But the fatal mistake was that Van Buyten went too far.

The ball landed right behind Van Buyten.

The Belgian center-back, standing at 1.97 meters tall, possessed a robust and strong physique that, instead of providing an advantage, made him appear unusually clumsy and sluggish.

The inertia made it impossible for him to turn around in time.

When he turned his head, he saw Wang Shuo changing direction and rushing over, and he stopped the ball with his left foot.

Everything happened right behind Van Buyten.

If he had turned his body 180 degrees at that moment, Wang Shuo would have had no chance at all.

The cruel thing is, there are no "what ifs"!
After Wang Shuo stopped the ball with his left foot, he chased after Butt and unleashed a powerful shot with his left foot before Butt could pounce on him.

This shot wasn't particularly powerful, and it came from a relatively long distance.

But Bayern's penalty area and goal were completely empty!
Everyone just watched helplessly as the ball fell into Bayern's goal.

At that moment, the game time was frozen at exactly 3 minutes!
