Chapter 126 Wolfsburg's Europa League Rival Napoli! Qin Ming delivers a fruit basket to Rüdiger at the hospital!
Beep-beep-beep!
As soon as the referee blew his whistle, boos erupted from the stadium.

They are very dissatisfied with Morco today.

Despite it being their home turf, the referee was so lenient, only giving verbal warnings to Qin Ming and others who were fouled.

If Qin Ming and his teammates don't retaliate, will Stuttgart take advantage of the situation?

The answer is yes.

That's why they booed to express their dissatisfaction with the referee.

Qin Ming also felt that the referee was incompetent. It would have been better to control the intensity of the game earlier, instead of waiting until the situation was out of control to try and fix it after the fact.

Isn't this just asking for trouble?
However, he quickly put that thought aside and jumped around with his teammates, enjoying the victory.

"By the way, how's Antonio doing? He shouldn't be injured too badly, right?"

Qin Ming asked.

“I feel you stepped on it a bit too hard. According to Bundesliga rules, in this kind of situation, you should visit the club with a representative and just go through the motions.”

Tresch is very experienced.

"Sending fruit baskets, right?"

Qin Ming couldn't help but chuckle, then continued, "Then I'll ask the boss later."

He didn't seem to have any objection to it.

It's all about saving face. If it means he has to apologize to Rüdiger, he definitely can't agree to it.

"Kevin, let's skip the spaghetti bolognese tonight. I made some toppings and we'll have noodles with minced meat sauce instead."

Qin Ming felt his stomach was empty.

Recently, in order to increase his core strength, he has adopted an extremely strict diet.

The first cycle is finally over, so I have to have a good meal tonight.

In the morning, he had the assistant Barnett had assigned to buy ingredients and make preparations.

"Great, let's take a look at the video of our next Europa League opponent's match."

De Bruyne nodded.

"I don't know why we've had such bad luck. We've faced Tottenham and Inter Milan in the knockout stage, and now we've drawn Napoli from Serie A!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming rubbed his hair in frustration. "You guys said we wouldn't face Fiorentina in the next round, so we're just going to pick off every single Serie A team!"

"Shut up!"

Perisic quickly stopped him, fearing that Qin Ming might jinx him.

As the season officially enters its later stages, after playing for eight months, even excluding the one-month winter break, they can clearly feel the fatigue.

The frequency of injuries within the team is also increasing. Everyone is like a taut string, and it might break if it is pulled any tighter.

"Sometimes what you fear most is what happens to you. In scientific terms, this is called Murphy's Law."

Qin Ming, on the other hand, was quite carefree.

"Then you're not allowed to tell!"

After Perisic finished speaking, he licked his lips. "As punishment for your nonsense, I'm coming to your place for dinner tonight. Remember to put plenty of onions in the topping."

He had eaten Qin Ming's braised noodles a while ago. Although the noodles used were spaghetti instead of alkaline noodles, they turned out to be more to their liking by accident.

"Ivan."

Qin Ming helplessly spread his hands, "We had a physical exam a few days ago, and your body fat percentage increased by 0.6%. The boss said to make sure you eat cleaner! Have you forgotten?"

"The equipment at the training base is not accurate, and the 0.6% increase in body fat percentage was actually because I didn't drink water."

Persic took his cheating to the extreme.

"alright."

Qin Ming did not try to persuade him further.

Anyway, the ingredients he used were clean; the meat was beef shank, the oil was a mixture of olive oil and avocado oil, and the noodles were spaghetti.

It can barely be considered a healthy meal; at worst, I'll just add less salt at night.

"I'm going too! I'm going too!"

Maranda is also a glutton.

"Then come on over, let's treat it as a get-together."

Qin Ming said.

Even after returning to their villa that evening, they didn't forget to keep up with Bayern's match.

"Ah! What a pity! We couldn't save that shot, what a shame!"

Persich punched the sofa.

Today, Bayern Munich plays away against Borussia Dortmund, and it seems like the former can easily win.

但实际不然.

Since losing to Wolfsburg before Christmas and falling to second-to-last place in the standings, Borussia Dortmund has begun a rebound.

2月份4胜1平1败，3月份也取得了两胜。

They have escaped the relegation zone and are now in 11th place.

Given the relationship between Dortmund and Bayern Munich, they will definitely fight tooth and nail in this match.

By the way, Dortmund's defense, including Solops Papastathopoulos, Subotic, Hummels, and Schmelzer, has all recovered from their injuries and is back in action.

Sure enough, Bayern Munich, who were firing on all cylinders, were silenced for 30 minutes, until Lewandowski finally managed to score through sheer individual skill.

"There might be a chance to draw."

Qin Ming felt that Dortmund had a good chance.

"Did you know that Klopp is leaving Dortmund at the end of the season? I heard from others that he will most likely go to manage a Premier League team."

Perisic played for Dortmund for two years, so he's better informed than others.

"He's really not suited to stay in the Bundesliga. It would probably be better for him to switch to another league."

Qin Ming poked his head out from the kitchen and said.

"From now on—"

Perisic was about to ask everyone where they wanted to go in the future, but that wasn't the right thing to say in this situation, so he changed the subject, "Do you think Napoli is a good team to play against?"

"They're pretty strong. Although they're third in Serie A, do you know who their head coach is?"

Qin Ming carried the tray to the table.

"Rafael Benitez".

De Bruyne provided the answer.

"That's right, it's the coach who led Liverpool to a comeback victory against Milan to win the Champions League. He's known by fans as a world-class tactical mastermind, and he even developed a football tactics app."

Qin Ming had learned about Benitez beforehand.

He's a genius.

Just imagine.

What kind of person would take his future wife, who has absolutely no interest in football, to watch a Real Madrid vs. Barcelona match on their first date?

What kind of person would insist on leading the team to Tokyo to play in the insignificant Club World Cup while their father was on his deathbed?
What kind of person would drag a drunken player aside at the celebration party after winning the Champions League and start talking at length about how they failed to defend Kaká and Crespo in the first half?
In the summer of 2009, Torres welcomed his daughter. After the match, his teammates celebrated, but Benitez said, "I told you last time that it's very important for us to be positioned at the near post when we take corner kicks. You need that."

But no one in the world knows how to use Torres better than Benitez.

In short, Benitez sees himself as a machine that worships football, and his entire world operates according to the logic of football.

But players never feel like they're just cogs in a machine.

This is also why conflicts always arise between Benitez and star players. Gerrard, Alonso, Materazzi, Terry and others have a bad relationship with him and may even unite to force him to resign.

"You've probably heard of their players, like Higuain and Hamsik, who are quite famous in Serie A."

Qin Ming tasted the noodles with minced meat sauce and nodded in satisfaction.

"We need to be careful in this game. Napoli's attack is very fierce. Their strikers Higuain and Insigne are like Maradona split in two, each half of the same player."

De Bruyne continued.

After a season together, he's become less withdrawn and can chat with his teammates.

"Alright! We can think about the match later. Let's cheer for Dortmund!"

Qin Ming raised the glass in his hand. It wasn't filled with beer, but with mineral water.

Ultimately, Dortmund failed to secure a draw or come back to defeat Bayern at home, losing this highly anticipated match 0-1.

at the post-match press conference.

"There is nothing wrong with our form; it's just that Dortmund has become stronger."

"Wolfsburg? It would be a lie to say we're not paying attention to them. They've been playing very well lately and putting a lot of pressure on us."

"But I think this is a good thing. Only when players feel a sense of urgency can they take every game seriously."

"Qin? To be honest, I regret my previous decision."

Guardiola gets a headache just thinking about Qin Ming. He only managed to arrange a training match for the reserve team a few days late because he was dealing with transfer matters.

When he arrived at the scene, everything seemed to collapse.

What about people?

Only after inquiring with Ten Hach did they learn that the person had just been sold to Wolfsburg.

In fact, Guardiola was only a little disappointed at the time, since he didn't know Qin Ming's true level.

But as time goes by.

He wished he could grow his hair back and then pluck it out again.

Late at night, Guardiola was still at his computer desk, as Bayern Munich's form had recently improved.

But what followed was a three-front battle: the German Cup, the Bundesliga, and the Champions League.

They were lucky to draw Porto, so they should be able to win easily.

However, other teams that have advanced include Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Juventus, Barcelona, ​​Paris Saint-Germain, and Monaco, and it is very likely that they will be drawn against strong teams after advancing.

If the schedule is followed, the league match against Wolfsburg will coincide with the second leg of the Champions League semi-final.

Could this be a hidden danger?
Guardiola always felt uneasy; he certainly couldn't give up the Champions League, which was Bayern's main reason for bringing him in.

What about the league?
Of course, they can't give up on this; it's Bayern's core strength.

Hopefully, they can defeat Wolfsburg head-to-head and win this match that could decide the championship.

late at night.

In a football world where nothing particularly noteworthy has happened, the match between Wolfsburg and Stuttgart has unexpectedly generated a surge in interest.

Kicker: The Bundesliga disciplinary committee is discussing whether the stamping by the young Wolfsburg player on Rüdiger was dangerous, but this newspaper believes it was an emergency avoidance maneuver because Rüdiger made the dangerous move first.

Bild: The referee's decisions were definitely too lenient. He wanted the game to flow more smoothly, but he ignored the fact that the conflict would escalate over time until he lost control of the players' emotions.

Dongqiudi: Wolfsburg defeated Stuttgart 3-0 at home. Qin Ming scored two goals and received a yellow card. His post-match rating of 8.6 was the highest in the game!
"."

Previously, Qin Ming attracted a large number of loyal fans with his distinctive style.

His popularity in the football world is also rising.

Although he can't compare to the star players of top clubs, he is still a well-known rising star.

What are the consequences of getting noticed?
Every action will be scrutinized under a magnifying glass; even if there is nothing wrong, something will be found to be wrong.
-
[Have you seen the video ibasti posted? Rüdiger has so many dirty tricks up his sleeve, and they're all quite dangerous.]
-
I saw him push Qin Ming down, and then try to stomp on Qin Ming from the side.
-
【Damn! 】
-
[This kind of person should be banned. Qin Ming was clearly the victim, yet he was shown a yellow card.]
-
Stuttgart lost both the game and their composure.
-
Fortunately, no Wolfsburg players were injured; otherwise, if they had missed out on the title because of this, the two teams would likely have become bitter rivals.
-
The relationship is very tense now.
-
【.】

The online public opinion is quite consistent.

Stuttgart's actions were impossible to hide from the cameras.

Moreover, most fans genuinely enjoy watching Qin Ming play.

They certainly don't want the future of football to lack a player who is pleasing to the eye.

The next day.

Wolfsburg City Hospital.

Qin Ming, together with club manager Allofs, visited Rüdiger, who was lying in a hospital bed.

"Fractured left rib. Did I use that much force? Or was there a pre-existing injury?"

Qin Ming listened to the diagnosis and muttered to himself in disbelief.

Even so, he couldn't possibly apologize to Rüdiger, put the fruit basket by his bedside, and let the accompanying reporters take a few photos.

Done!

There was no exchange between the two, but Qin Ming still had a smile on his face. He felt that he didn't need to go to La Masia for further studies; his acting skills alone were already impressive.

But Rüdiger was so angry that his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

He turned his head away and ignored Qin Ming, but ended up getting scolded by the club manager.

Do you even know what status they have in the Bundesliga right now?
Since Qin Ming has shown outstanding performance, the viewership of the Bundesliga in China has been rising steadily, bringing with it significant benefits.

It can be said that Qin Ming is now not only Wolfsburg's mascot, but also the mascot of the entire Bundesliga.

Rüdiger forced a smile.

But he harbored resentment towards Qin Ming, thinking he would take revenge when he had the chance.

The two have now formed an irreconcilable feud.

Qin Ming wasn't afraid of this; he had many other methods at his disposal.

For example, the Iron Elbow hasn't been used yet.

"Qin, how have you been at the club lately? Have you been feeling unwell?"

On the way back to the club, Allofs asked.

"good."

Qin Ming answered with a smile.

His status at Wolfsburg is different from that at Bayern Munich. At Bayern, he couldn't even get into the canteen, but at Wolfsburg, there are chefs on call at all times.

Moreover, all training facilities are top-notch.

Of course, Qin Ming understood that the money ultimately came from the customers, and Wolfsburg had taken a lot of profits from him.

The impressive sales figures alone must have cost a fortune.

But as long as he can make money and live comfortably, that's fine.

“Our contract will be upgraded again, your salary will be the same as Kevin's, and your bonus will also be increased.”

Looking at Qin Ming's still somewhat immature face, Allofs once again felt grateful that he had made a wise choice back then.

"You can discuss this with Jonathan."

Since signing the contract, Qin Ming has found that his agent is really great; he can get anything done by his agent.

Moreover, the two are also in a community of shared interests.

"That contract term."

Allofs expressed his desire to extend the stay for a few more years, but Qin Ming refused without hesitation.

why?
Because we'll have to wait until the end of this season to see if he stays with Wolfsburg.

This is a problem.

Therefore, renewing the contract now would be an unwise choice, even if it brings more immediate benefits.

Qin Ming values ​​the future more.

"Mr. Allofs, it's a crucial time of the season right now. If you have any questions about the contract, please contact my agent. He will have a proper discussion with you."

Qin Ming shifted the blame onto Barnett.

Agents are just scapegoats; let them handle the things that offend people.

Allofs nodded and said nothing more.

After so many years as a manager, how could he not know the principle that people strive for higher positions and water flows downhill?

Furthermore, Qin Ming's love for football, his desire for victory, and his pursuit of honor are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Allofs was quite certain of this, because he had been the same way.

Such people will eventually join the ranks of elite clubs to compete for the highest honors in football.

Golden Globe Awards.

But there is almost no chance of winning in Wolfsburg.
