122 I want the Bundesliga title
122 I want the Bundesliga championship
The game was incorporated into his own pace from the first minute.
Kaiserslautern, who is at home, adheres to the offensive football philosophy he advocates. In addition, Bochum has not become conservative because of away games at all. The two teams jointly contributed a refreshing football feast to the fans on site.
In the 12th minute, Denilson, who has performed well recently, hopes to be selected for Brazil's World Cup national team roster with his outstanding performance, took the lead in forcing a forcibly breaking through on the left, and then used a change of direction to shake off his opponent, and scored an amazing arc ball at the front of the penalty area.
After the first record, Kaiserslautern performed more easily, especially the players' mentality on the court was not as depressed as the competition, but instead seemed very relaxed. Even the starter Larson dared to dribble the ball in the penalty area.
Under the strong offensive pressure of Kaiserslautern, Bochum was not timid at all. This team that was always sticking to its own style was still actively looking for opportunities.
But in the 38th minute, after Desler made a beautiful personal breakthrough on the right, he suddenly made a diagonal pass at the front of the penalty area at 45 degrees. Nedved inserted in the back row and headed the ball. Larson flexibly ran in the penalty area, appeared in front of the goal and stabbed the ball.
Kaiserslautern entered the halftime with a 2-goal advantage. Yang Cheng praised the players' performance in the locker room, but still did not put any pressure on them, just to make them do a good job in this show.
The second half changed sides and fought again. As soon as the game started, Bochum launched a fierce attack and took advantage of Lucio's mistake to score a goal, bringing the score back to 2:1!
But at the critical moment, Barack had a very thoughtful pass in the counterattack. Denilson cut in from the left and then got the ball and passed the opponent's defender. On the right side of the goal in the penalty area, he picked the ball past the goalkeeper and won another game, 3:1!
Denilson, who performed well, became even more out of control. He seemed more skillful in his cooperation with Larson in the frontcourt. The two of them flexibly interspersed back and forth and cooperated back and forth, which brought huge trouble to Bochum's defense.
In the 78th minute, Kaiserslautern scored the most beautiful goal in the game.
Gattuso intercepted in advance and handed it to Veron. The Argentine moved to the right. Desler did not dribble the ball and sent it forward directly. Larson ran out of the gap to get the ball, but there was no chance and knocked back to Barack, who moved to the left and gave Nedved.
After the Czechs made a move to cut inward, attracting the attention of Bochum's defensive players, the ball was passed into the penalty area by him. De Nielsen pulled the ball to the open space on the left to get the ball. After a little adjustment, he shot low and broke through Bochum's goal again and scored the first hat-trick of his personal career.
After completing this series of goals, Denilson was so excited that he jumped samba on the sidelines to celebrate.
"This kid is truly in the style of a general now!" Yang Cheng was very pleased to watch it off the court.
Denilson was an A Dou who could not help in his previous life. Although he had excellent skills, he was difficult to adapt to the European football style. However, after Yang Cheng intervened in his football career, he came to Europe early, and after a period of adaptation, he adapted and integrated into the European football style.
His physical fitness is not outstanding now, but he is average and sufficient. His speed is not fast. But with his speed changes, he is easy to do whether it is a break through the wing or a more free-standing Shadow Front. In addition, his increasingly smarter playing style makes his performance in Kaiserslautern become more and more outstanding.
It can be said that after the winter break, all the players were generally sluggish, but Denilson showed his strength and state to turn the tide. He is indeed worthy of Yang Cheng's praise.
"In order to be selected for the Brazilian national team, he started training early during the winter break, and his condition and physical fitness are indeed better than his teammates." Tim Hank has the most say in this regard, and he also thinks that the one who adjusts the best in the team at present is Denilsen.
"Take it slow!" Yang Cheng said with a smile and encouragement from Tim.
In the Bundesliga, Kaiserslautern had two weeks to calmly arrange the training after the winter break, but after entering the Bundesliga, there was only one week. In a hurry, it was not just Tim Hank who was a little embarrassed, and even Yang Cheng himself almost fell into trouble.
Fortunately, after two consecutive draws, Yang Cheng quickly found the crux of the problem and improved it, which led to the outbreak of this game.
"After winning this game, Scala is the most depressing one!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.
Dortmund's game in this round is one day later than Kaiserslautern, and their opponent is Stuttgart. Lov's team is famous for its difficulty, but in this game, both sides will definitely fight to the death and no one wants to lose. Therefore, Dortmund lags behind Kaiserslautern in preparation for the second leg of the European Super Cup.
On the other hand, Yang Cheng hid the main players of the team in this game, including Fanny, Schneider, Kosch, etc., and had long been determined to defeat Dortmund in one fell swoop in the home game and win the Grand Slam last season.
But to be honest, this Grand Slam is really meaningless.
First of all, this Grand Slam was not in 1997, because the European Super Cup was scheduled to be held in early February, which was considered to be 1998, and it has passed a year. Secondly, the league championship in Kaiserslautern's Grand Slam was in the German Second Division, which is not very valuable.
Look at the current group of stars in Kaiserslautern, Yang Cheng dares to say that if any head coach with a little strength comes over, he can definitely compete for the Bundesliga championship.
But what Yang Cheng didn't expect was that it was precisely because of this that the entire European football world was shocked by his coaching ability.
As a head coach, whether it is the vision of selecting players, the ability to train players and help players improve, or the strategy of tactical layout, and the decisiveness and ability in on-site command, Yang Cheng's performance in the Bundesliga almost makes people unable to find obvious flaws.
Yes, just looking at some aspects, Yang Cheng is quite different from world-renowned coaches, but he is able to combine all these aspects well and build a team of Kaiserslautern, a German football team that is in full swing according to his own wishes.
Many German media have even begun to praise Kaiserslautern's performance this season, regardless of whether he can win the league championship, at least one of the Champions League qualifications should not be able to escape.
With Kaiserslautern's performance against strong teams this season, I believe that I can make a difference in the Champions League next season.
But Yang Cheng is not so optimistic because he knows better than anyone else that the strongest team in the Champions League in the 1998/99 season is Bayern Munich, followed by the almost perfect Red Devils and Manchester United in all aspects. In addition, top giants like Real Madrid and Juventus, it is difficult for Kaiserslautern to achieve anything.
Oh, by the way, and Dynamo Kiev.
Dynamo Kiev in the past two seasons has been the most amazing dark horse, especially the team's number one striker Shevchenko. The Ukrainian nuclear warhead's two games against Barcelona in the Champions League group stage this season are absolutely amazing.
First, he defeated Barcelona 3-0 at home, and two weeks later, she was visiting the Camp Nou Stadium. Shevchenko's hat trick shocked the whole world. Dynamo Kiev also almost amazingly qualified as the first in the group, while Barcelona, which had a very high call for qualifying, was eliminated at the bottom.
Shevchenko also won the title of Belarus Belarus with his outstanding performance in the Champions League and the league. Together with Fanny from Kaiserslautern, he became the fastest-growing forward in European football in the past year.
Although his opponents are very strong and Yang Cheng dares not be too optimistic, he is very much looking forward to being able to compete with his opponent next season.
The stronger you meet, the stronger you are, this is the most touching football charm!
February 10, Kaiserslautern, Fritz Walter Stadium.
When the referee blew the whistle to the end of the game, the fans of the audience stood up in an uproar, celebrating loudly that the team won another championship with the warmest applause and cheers of the audience.
This is the sixth championship trophy that Yang Cheng won in just one and a half years, namely two German Super Cup champions, one German Second Division champion, one European Cup winners, and one German Cup champion. Now he has won another European Super Cup champion.
26-year-old Yang Cheng almost created an incredible miracle in Kaiserslautern!
The players rushed into the stadium to celebrate excitedly, but Yang Cheng always stood on the sidelines, smiling, without saying anything, and without intervening in the celebration.
"It seems you are very rational!" Heathfield appeared behind Yang Cheng at some point.
The latter knew it was him when he heard the voice. He didn't look back and just smiled, "Is this my advantage? Or my weakness?"
Heathfield shrugged, people who are too rational often find it difficult to find someone or something that can make them happy.
"Scala probably doesn't understand why he lost!" Heathfield doesn't seem to have a good impression of the Italian head coach.
In fact, Dortmund once discussed during the winter break whether he should directly fire Scala and let Heathfield take over the team again, but the proud Heathfield rejected the invitation and said he would not return to Dortmund's head coaching seat.
As for the head coaches that Dortmund is interested in, such as Yang Cheng, the head coach of the number one hottest Kaiserslautern, he has no chance of leaving Kaiserslautern halfway and heading to Dortmund to put out the fire when the team is as good as the team's championship momentum.
After careful consideration, Dortmund decided to keep Scala temporarily and wait until the season is over to find a new head coach.
"It seems that you are not worried recently!" Yang Cheng laughed when he saw Heathfield's face that was stiff as bark.
Heathfield smiled and sighed, "I reminded Scala not to be too aggressive against Kaiserslautern, but he didn't listen. He thought the team tied Kaiserslautern at home in the first leg, which was the result of his tactics being effective, but what about it?"
"That's because there is something wrong with our players in terms of adjustment!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.
After defeating Dortmund at home 3:0 and winning the European Super Cup, Yang Cheng can directly face the mistakes he made.
Heathfield smiled, "Scala is eager to win and urgently needs a championship to defend his position as head coach!" At the end, Heathfield felt pitiful.
But by extension, all head coaches who want to gain a foothold in a wealthy family are equally pitiful, because they are always so in a daze and always have to bear one kind of pressure.
"Listen to your tone, it seems that you are confident to beat me?" Yang Cheng suddenly turned his head with a smile.
Heathfield was stunned, then laughed, but nodded, "I guess I found a way to defeat you!"
After a pause, the coach suddenly said, "Come to Dortmund, I will tell you!"
Yang Cheng was stunned and looked at Heathfield, who looked serious and serious, not as if he was joking.
"They knew that I had a good relationship with you, so they asked me to be a lobbyist. I would be happy to work with you. At least you get along much better than Scala. You can sit down and talk about salary, players, power, etc. as long as you are willing to come!" Heathfield gave temptations that are undeniable.
"Impossible!" Yang Cheng didn't think about it for too long and refused directly.
"Why?" Heathfield felt that the conditions offered by Dortmund were already very generous.
Yang Cheng looked at the players celebrating on the court. Everyone there was pulled out by him with one hand and one foot. Everyone had his efforts on them, and then they had their mark that belonged to Yang Cheng in their careers.
No matter where these players go in the future and how high their achievements are, everyone will mention Yang Cheng's name when they think of them, saying with admiration that it was Yang Cheng who gave them successful careers one by one.
The team is so trendy at present. Although Yang Cheng didn't say it, he was thinking in his heart that he hoped to win the championship and complete the miracle of the winning team of Kaiserslautern in his previous life. This is entirely possible.
If he ran away like this now, it would definitely be a big blow to his reputation and would inevitably leave indelible regrets on his career.
"I want a Bundesliga championship!" Yang Cheng gritted his teeth almost word by word.
Heathfield was stunned for a moment, but soon, a sense of identity arose from the deepest part of his heart. He saw the young man's passionate desire for honor and championship in Yang Cheng's eyes.
Winning the championship as a newly promoted team will indeed go down in history!
"What about after the season ends?" Heathfield sighed in his heart, leaning back on the second best.
Yang Cheng shook his head, "I don't know!"
A word is full of sighs!
The environment in Kaiserslautern is indeed a bit chaotic. The presidential election will be held in the summer. Werner Melzer should be able to become the leader, but the board of directors' intervention is too strong, which is a bit suspicious of laymen manipulating insiders, resulting in a very chaotic team management and it is difficult to create benefits.
Yang Cheng's first choice is to continue to stay in the team, because he has devoted a lot of effort to Kaiserslautern, but it still depends on how much Mercedes can reach. If everything is in a good direction, Yang Cheng is willing to continue to stay.
However, if the board of directors still interferes in the team's operations like last season, or even decides to buy and sell the team's stars privately, then Yang Cheng will choose to resign without hesitation. This time, no one can say goodbye.
Yang Cheng is not the newcomer Yang Cheng back then. Now he doesn't have to worry about not having a next home. Dortmund has sent invitations many times, and Bayern Munich's Beckenbauer also hinted several times that he hopes Yang Cheng can take over Bayern Munich after the end of the season and replace Trapatoni.
Bayern Munich and Kaiserslautern are two completely different stages. The former's background and strength are qualified to do a big game in European football, while the latter has devoted Yang Cheng's efforts, but they are subject to certain restrictions, each with its strengths and weaknesses.
On the contrary, Dortmund, a team with equally chaotic management, has never seriously considered it from beginning to end, because the thing he is least willing to do is to go to muddy water!
They won the European Super Cup and received trophy and bonuses. Kaiserslautern's celebration was kept to a minimum by Yang Cheng because three days later, they went to the away game to challenge Stuttgart.
Yang Cheng continued to rotate the team, Stuttgart waited for it, and Kaiserslautern had an advantage in overall strength. The two teams played very fiercely, and both sides tried their best.
At the critical moment, Barack stood up, Schneider passed directly on the right, Larson got the ball in the penalty area and knocked back, Barack inserted a long shot in the back row, and the entire goal was clean and neat. Kaiserslautern scored the only goal in the game in the 65th minute.
In a 1-0 away victory over Stuttgart, Kaiserslautern continued to maintain his lead in the standings, but the team was immediately disbanded, and international players from all over the country returned to the national team to play.
Every time such a day, Yang Cheng felt a headache because he was unable to refuse the call from the national team.
As Kaiserslautern's performance becomes more and more outstanding, there are more and more international players in the team. Not only the main players in the team like Van Nie and Schneider have joined the national team, and even the young players such as Kyle, Fritz, and Desler have been qualified to join the national team.
The purpose of the national team training for two weeks was naturally to prepare for the upcoming World Cup in France. Since it was a warm-up match, Yang Cheng had previously sent faxes to the national football associations, requiring them to minimize the players' playing time, especially many main stars in the team.
But there are some things that Yang Cheng can't control at all.
Taking advantage of the absent break when the players participated in the national team training camp, Yang Cheng participated in a series of activities by the German Football Association, namely, the groundbreaking ceremony of the training center in East Germany and the inspection of the youth training of the East Germany team.
These things are a precursor to the German Football Association's help in East Germany football. Yang Cheng naturally spared no effort in this. Not only him, Paul Bayer, Tim Hank and others also took the initiative to ask for follow-up, and Monitz and Murenstin, the two German Football Association youth training lecturers, naturally wanted to go.
Chapter completed!
