Chinese players in Europe

Chapter 125

Cottbus is a football club located in the city of Cottbus in the Lusatia region of Brandenburg in eastern Germany. Its full name is Cottbus Energy Football Club.As one of the few former East German clubs that succeeded after reunification, Cottbus has not been established for a long time, only 44 years, but they have spent a large part of their time in the German Bundesliga.Cottbus is a small seaport city, and the club has been in a state of shortage of funds for a long time. It is a miracle that it has been able to stay in the professional league.

In the 2005/06 season, Cottbus returned to the top league after three years. Although the ranking has always been at the bottom of the league, it has been difficult to relegation every season.And it was in the summer of 06 that Huaxia player Shao Jiayi joined the club in this small town and has played for him ever since.In the 2008/09 season, due to the shortage of funds and the difficulty in turnover, they had to sell many of the club's main players. After losing their mainstay, they were finally unable to recover. In this summer, they were relegated to the second division.

Although they are all small clubs, unlike Hoffenheim, which is full of glory, Cottbus does not have too much ambition. As long as the team can always exist, it will be the happiest for all fans in this city to play in the professional league. things.As for the top league, it is of course best to be able to go, and the fans can accept it if they can't.

But Hoffenheim is different. Although Huo Village has a small number of people, only more than 3500, every fan has great expectations for it. They have never-stopping footsteps and they have the passion to pursue victory.Under Mr. Hope's 20 years of persistent capital investment and transformation, Hoffenheim finally soared into the sky and shocked the world.But this will not satisfy them, they will climb higher mountains.In the world, there are not rich clubs and strong teams from the very beginning. All the rich clubs evolved from the development of small teams.The goal of Hoffenheim is to stand at the pinnacle of world football.They are also working hard for this!

This different mentality has created different situations for the two teams: Hoffenheim is galloping in the Bundesliga, while Cottbus can only linger in the Bundesliga.

For Cottbus, Hoffenheim people are no strangers.Last season, the team double-killed opponents at home and away.So when they learned that the opponent in the third round of the German Cup was Cottbus, all the players, including the coach, thought they were lucky and had drawn a good lottery.This is not to underestimate the opponent, but it is a fact.Although the opponent is also a professional team and competed in the Bundesliga last season, everyone is full of confidence in winning.Because, they have this strength!
Since Cottbus is not far from Sinsheim, only more than 200 kilometers away, the club sent the team to the destination on the day of the match.

On September [-]th, the weather was a little gloomy, and strong winds blew across the street from time to time, rolling the fallen leaves on the ground into the distance and kicking up a cloud of dust.When the bus drove into the Friendship Stadium, the rain finally fell.Although it is not big, it makes people feel a little irritated.

"This damn weather! Are we going to fight in the rain today?"

Eduardo, who had just stepped onto the turf of the Friendship Stadium and was about to warm up, complained.The Brazilian's foot skills are quite good, but the rain fight is what he hates the most, which will greatly limit his performance.Just now, he was going to play fancy moves with the pad ball, but he didn't expect his foot to slip and fall to the ground, which made him very annoyed.

"Oh, the damn rain, it messed up my new hairstyle. Shit!" Obasi yelled in frustration, rubbing his head.

"Carlos, although I don't like playing in the rain, it can't be helped. You should know that football players always have problems of one kind or another. We all have to get used to it and conquer it."

"And you, Hinidu. If you have confidence in yourself, you will charm countless girls even if you have no hair. Stop your ghost screaming, it will make me mistakenly think that I met a nasty vampire on a hazy rainy day .You should know that your cry is very similar to it."

Salic also frowned.To be honest, he also hates playing in the rain. His technical characteristics determine that his advantages lie in his delicate feet and excellent passing. However, this light rain will definitely compromise his performance on the court.However, as a professional player, he has experienced many such scenes. He has long been used to it and can minimize the impact. Of course, as the captain of the team, he must appease the players and give everyone a reassurance.

"Okay, guys! No matter what the weather is like, I think our goal is still to win, right? Well, let's warm up now. If anyone is not moving and getting familiar Get in touch, I think sir will definitely let him stay on the bench for nine or ten minutes."

The players who were still complaining stopped making noise. After all, no one wants to be put on the bench by the coach because they didn't warm up. Although the rain really made people feel a little depressing, fortunately, everyone has a lot of experience in fighting in the rain. Under the leadership of Salihovic and the assistant coaches, they began to prepare for the warm-up before the game.

Could it be that he didn't mourn and complain along with the crowd, when he just entered the stadium, he found that the entire stand was full of fans.Although it was only a DFB-Pokal match and it was played in the rain, the enthusiasm of the fans was still high.There was a lot of noise in the stands at the moment, cheers and shouts intersected and mixed, noisy.Due to the cover of rain and fog, Mo Fei couldn't see the scene outside the arena very clearly.However, the bright red flag dotted with a few yellow five-pointed stars on the north stand is so conspicuous that it can be clearly seen at a glance.

"Jiayi, come on!"

"Could it be Xiongqi!"

"Huaxia come on!"

Scattered and intermittent shouts passed through the barrier of rain and fog, and came from the haze.Hearing the long-lost local accent, Mo Fei couldn't help but have slightly moist eyes.He didn't expect that there would be Huaxia fans in this strange city to watch his game.

In fact, this German Cup game has not received much attention in Germany, because there is a highlight in the third round. The Bundesliga giant Bayern Munich will go to Schalke to challenge Schalke 04 at the Gelkirchen Stadium.The appeal of these two veteran Bundesliga teams in Germany is undoubtedly huge. When the two teams meet, who will be the final winner has attracted the attention of countless people.As for the game between Hoffenheim and Cottbus, it is impossible for a top league team to compete with a second division team to attract the attention of the public.

Of course, this is not to say that this game has nothing to watch. Except for the supporters of the two teams, in the distant China, this game has received great attention.The match between two Chinese players, the authentic Chinese derby, is enough to make fans have endless associations.The fans are full of anticipation for this game, and many Huaxia fans even went to Europe to watch the game.As for the overseas Chinese in Germany, there are even more.And the Chinese language that Mo Fei heard was uttered by them.

Could it be that he doesn't know how many people in the motherland thousands of miles away are watching the match between him and Shao Jiayi, and how many fans are waiting until late at night in front of the TV to wait for the live broadcast. When he hears the familiar language, his mood cannot be restrained Get excited.He had the illusion of returning to his hometown.

"Get up, people who don't want to be slaves, and cast our flesh and blood into our new Great Wall..."

"Everyone is forced to let out a final roar..."

"Get up! Get up! Get up! . . . Go! Go! Go!"

The impassioned singing suddenly wafted over the northern stands. At first, it was only fragmentary like a trickling stream. Gradually, the fans in the entire northern stand stood up with clenched fists, waving their national flags and singing loudly.A series of majestic roars integrated strong emotions into the song, penetrated through layers of rain and fog, and resounded through the world!
Unable to control his emotions anymore, Could Fei quickly ran to the north stands, bowed deeply to all the Huaxia fans present, then waved his arms and sang loudly with everyone.He didn't understand why so many relatives would come to watch and cheer for a small cup match. He just knew that he was a Chinese, and no matter where he went, the blood of the descendants of Yan and Huang would always flow through his body.No matter when and where, he is proud of being a descendant of the dragon.Although he is now in a foreign country, the strength of his blood makes him have the courage to face all difficulties and challenges. He wants to make the glory of China make the world look at him!

After singing a song, could it be that tears were streaming down my face.There was also a sudden silence in the stands, and after a long while, there was a burst of cheers and applause.Bowing to the fans again, Mo Fei walked slowly towards his own half under the urging of the assistant coach.

At this time, the players of Cottbus have also warmed up.Mo Fei tried his best to concentrate on looking into the distance, trying to find that strange but familiar Huaxia face through the rain and fog.The hazy weather made his vision slightly blocked, and he couldn't see the scene in the distance clearly.After looking for a long time, I have been searching for nothing, so I have no choice but to give up.But when the official match comes, Shao Jiayi will naturally be found.

Everyone who returned to the locker room after warming up found that the head coach, Mr. Lannick, had been waiting there for a long time. Maric on the side quickly distributed dry towels to the players and asked them to dry their wet hair to prevent them from catching cold.Seeing that everyone had almost dropped out, Lannick began his last speech before the game.

"Gentlemen, if we win this game, we will advance to the semi-finals of the German Cup, which is one step closer to our first championship this season. Although the weather is really bad today, it will bring us a lot of trouble But this is not an excuse, the opponent will also face this kind of difficulty. I only have one request, take down the opponent and win! Gentlemen, I don’t think you will let me down!”

"Yes, sir!" replied the players in unison.

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go out and fight for victory!" Lannick said with a smile on his face, and waved his hand to signal the players to come out.

"Oh, wait, Mo..." Lannick seemed to think of something, and suddenly called out to Mo Fei, lowered his head and thought for a while, and then said, "Well, the Huaxia fans' singing is great. I feel like my blood is boiling .”
