Football: Starting from the Ronaldinho template

Chapter 151 The Bundesliga Champion is Here!

2015 5 Month 23 Day.

RheinEnergieStadion.

All 50,000 seats were occupied, with fewer Cologne fans and more Wolfsburg fans.

Outside the stadium, there were many cars from Wolfsburg parked.

The two locations are less than 400 kilometers apart, and it would take at most four hours by highway, so many Wolfsburg fans came to the stadium.

They are about to witness the moment of victory.

At this moment, Qin Ming and his teammates were standing in the passageway when a staff member carrying a trophy that looked like a salad plate passed by him.

There used to be only one Bundesliga title, and whoever won it would keep it for a season.

Its name is: The Victor's Cup.

Unfortunately, it was lost during the war, just as the smoke of battle cleared in Germany and the Bundesliga resumed.

Someone suggested making a large silver platter to symbolize the German royal family's gift to German football.

Here comes the salad plate.

Coincidentally, the first new Bundesliga championship trophy was created in Cologne.

It was forged by a female craftswoman named Elizabeth Treskov.

The trophy was made using 5.5 kilograms of silver and was inlaid with 5 large rhinestones and 11 small rhinestones, weighing a total of 175 carats.

What are those letters?

Qin Ming was too far away to see clearly.

"It bears the name of each season's Bundesliga champion, but it was completely engraved in 1981. It was a craftsman named Adolf Kunesch who inlaid a new silver ring on the outside of the original silver plate, increasing the diameter of the trophy from 50 centimeters to 59 centimeters."

Arnold, who came through Wolfsburg's youth academy, knows these things very well.

He stared longingly at the salad plate, unable to hide his excitement.

"By the way, is this real or fake?"

Qin Ming asked again.

"real!"

Arnold replied, "The fake one is with Bayern Munich. Because we have a better chance of winning the title, the real one will be kept here with us."

"Then I'll touch it later."

Qin Ming rubbed his hands together.

"No!" Dost, Arnold, Perisic, De Bruyne and others shouted in unison.

There's an unwritten curse in the football world: the team that touches the trophy before the match is likely to lose.

Although there are examples of winning, we should still have faith.

"Okay, then I won't touch it, and you guys shouldn't touch it either!"

Qin Ming compromised.

"We definitely won't touch it until the end of the game!"

Perisic is rather superstitious.

The moment Qin Ming stepped out of the players' tunnel, his ears were filled with noise, and when he looked up, he saw a sea of ​​green and white.

These people are here to support them.

Then he turned to look at the Cologne players.

Wow, they're all so fierce, I feel like they're going to eat me alive.

"profound!"

Qin Ming then remembered something.

Bayer Leverkusen, FC Köln, and FC Nuremberg all have close ties with Bayern Munich, with FC Köln being a staunch ally.

看看两队近几个赛季的比分，1-1、0-0、0-0和3-2，科隆不是平就是赢。

But how could Cologne, a relegation-threatened team that is often thrashed by other teams at their home ground, possibly play like this against Bayern Munich?
The only option is for the older brother to go easy on his younger brother and try to keep him in the league.

So it's no surprise that Cologne will go all out to help their older brother win back the league title.

"This is still a major battle!"

Qin Ming muttered to himself.

Yuya Osako and Kazuki Nagasawa, who were in the Cologne queue, stared intently at Qin Ming with fierce eyes.

They received their mission before the competition.

If they can stop Wolfsburg at home, there will be a hefty bonus.

Moreover, for them, Qin Ming, who has become a flag bearer in Asia, is an opponent they dream of defeating.

"Dude, are you now public enemy number one in Asia?"

Qin Ming noticed the unfriendly looks in their eyes.

Soon, amidst the roar of 50,000 fans at the stadium and the gleam reflected from the salad bowls on the sidelines, the crowd dispersed.

The final match of the 2014-15 Bundesliga season has begun.

When the camera panned across the stands and lingered on him, He Wei recognized the face and introduced him: "Franz Beckenbauer, known as the Emperor of Football by fans! He pioneered the libero style of play and won five Bundesliga titles, three European Cup titles, one World Cup title, and one European Championship title during his playing career. Among them, the image that fans remember most is probably the one with a bandage on his right shoulder."

"He has now stepped down from his position. He ceased serving on the FIFA Executive Committee five years ago, leaving him only with the title of Honorary President of Bayern Munich."

"I wonder why he came here instead of watching Bayern's game?"

He Wei was a little confused.

But in reality, Beckenbauer came with a purpose: he wanted to have a serious talk with Qin Ming about the previous misunderstandings.

As a product of Bayern Munich's youth academy, he traveled across the ocean to Munich, Germany at the age of 12.

Beckenbauer believes Qin Ming definitely has feelings for Bayern Munich.

There were some unpleasant things between the two, but these issues were not unsolvable.

As for Qin Ming's recent remarks, Beckenbauer dismissed them as childish and didn't take them to heart.

The intensity of the matches on the field exceeded people's expectations.

Eight minutes into the first half, Breco received a yellow card from the referee for a sliding tackle from the side.

Qin Ming simply sat on the ground and straightened his socks, which were covered in mud.

Having played a season in the Bundesliga, and given his style of play that makes him prone to fouls, he has now developed an instinct to protect himself.

When Breco touched his ankle, he immediately fell forward with the force.

This prevents ankle injury due to shearing force.

"Kevin, I'm going to run to the mid lane later to see if there's an opportunity. Remember to keep up with the pace."

Qin Ming ignored Breco's provocative gaze.

He is no longer the unknown nobody he once was, but a rising star in the Bundesliga and even the entire football world.

Breco, a mere Karami, is no longer worth getting too emotionally affected by.

"When you're moving, move in a bit more; their positioning is too loose."

De Bruyne suggested.

After the two finished discussing the tactical details, the match continued.

Wolfsburg at full power is formidable; even Bayern Munich couldn't withstand them, let alone their younger brother.

Cologne were able to stop the attack in the early stages by making tough tackles and fouls.

But after 30 minutes, the game had become one-sided.

De Bruyne held the ball near the center circle, strolling leisurely as if taking a walk, but then he made a gesture.

Whoosh! Wolfsburg's attacking players began to make runs, throwing Cologne's defense into disarray.

The fleeting opportunity was seized by the Belgians.

If Qin Ming's right foot was enchanted, then De Bruyne's right foot was like a machine.

Precision!

The sharp trajectory sliced ​​through Cologne's defenses and found Qin Ming, who was positioned diagonally in the flank.

"Take him! Take him!"

Slovenian center-back Maro, amidst the roars of the Cologne fans, viciously lunged forward with a sliding tackle.

*Thwack!* Qin Ming, moving at high speed, didn't need to make any adjustments; the moment the ball reached his feet, he could connect the movements.

This is the unique chemistry between the Wolfsburg duo, the result of a season of playing side by side.

In Maro's panicked gaze, the football and Qin Ming leaped up in sync, flying over him.

That footwork is incredibly fast!

Maro stopped and quickly turned around. Qin Ming had already landed and was facing Cologne's goalkeeper, Horn, who was valued at 1200 million euros.

His center of gravity swayed as if he were dancing, leading Horn to make a wrong judgment.

"Qin Ming! He dribbles past Horn, cuts the ball, and slots it into the empty net!"

He changed the score!

"Wolfsburg, playing away from home, finally scored a goal amidst great anticipation!"

"Good job!"

He Wei looked at the edge of the camera lens, at the vividly glowing salad plate.

He didn't sleep much today, just thinking about tonight's game. He was a little sleepy at first, but now he's excited.

"Tor!!!" The RheinEnergieStadion was filled with the hysterical, hoarse cheers of the Wolfsburg fans in the away stands.

They can't wait to see the Wolfsburg players holding up the salad bowl.

In the corner flag area, Qin Ming stood in front of the camera, one hand covering his left chest, which is the Wolfsburg team crest.

In the center of the circle is a giant letter: W!

As his fingertips felt the roughness of the needle and thread, he couldn't help but recall this season, which truly felt like a dream.

Now the story has finally come to an end.

He probably won't stay in Wolfsburg in the future.

But there is no denying that Wolfsburg left him with the most wonderful memories.

"Qin! Why are you so quiet today? Are you worried about messing up your hairstyle?"

Persich reached out and ruffled Qin Ming's black hair.

"Ivan! Sometimes I really wonder, who's 17, you or me!"

Qin Ming reluctantly tidied his hair.

Before the competition, I had my hair styled for a long time and even had some hairspray applied, all so that I could take good photos.

"A man is a boy until he dies!"

Persich quoted a proverb he'd seen somewhere.

"The game has restarted! Cologne is putting up a fierce comeback!"

"Let's check out the other match. Bayern Munich is already 2-0 up against Mainz, with Lewandowski scoring twice!"

"This"

"The Bundesliga Golden Boot award this season should be a foregone conclusion. Lewandowski is currently five goals ahead of second-place Qin Ming, unless Qin Ming scores six goals today!"

"But thinking about it, I know it's impossible!"

He Wei still felt a little regretful.

Although Qin Ming's performance in his first season is already quite good.

But people are never satisfied.

The Asian Cup Golden Boot, the Bundesliga Golden Boot, and the Europa League Golden Boot—imagine what it would feel like to win them all!

It's going to be incredibly fun!

At the Allianz Arena, Bayern Munich fans were no longer paying attention to the game on the field, but instead were glued to their phones, constantly refreshing the screen.

They prayed that God would see the news of Cologne's goal.

Suddenly, a message window popped up at the top of the phone.

They quickly clicked to watch, but before they could finish, everything went black.

Done!

比赛第73分钟，狼堡13号进球，比分1-0变2-0！

They are three points behind Wolfsburg, and only if Cologne beats Wolfsburg can they overtake them on goal difference. Even a draw between Wolfsburg and Cologne won't work.

But Wolfsburg, leading by two goals, are still in top form.

How to lose?
Hearing the sighs from the fans in the stands, the Bayern players understood what was happening and all showed expressions of frustration and disappointment.

At that moment, they felt as if all their strength had been drained.

On the sidelines, Guardiola's beard showed clear signs of turning white.

He's been very worried lately!

Klopp may have left, but why did he suddenly declare that he wants to compete for the German Cup title?

To be honest, he felt that given the poor form of Bayern's players, it was really hard to say who was stronger or weaker than Dortmund.

If all four elements are truly gone.

Guardiola shuddered, believing this would be the most humiliating season of his coaching career, bar none.

Suddenly, Mainz sounded the horn of counterattack. Shinji Okazaki broke the offside trap and created a one-on-one opportunity, taking a shot from the edge of the penalty area.

Neuer, who had rushed out of his goal, was a fraction of a second too slow to react, and the ball slipped under his arm and crossed the goal line.

"What the hell is this?!"

Guardiola clutched his head, questioning the meaning of life.

The Mainz players weren't about to give up. Cologne was Bayern's staunch ally, while they were Dortmund's ally.

Shouldn't we seize this opportunity to kick a dog when it's down?

When the camera returns to the RheinEnergieStadion.

With just a few minutes left in the match, Wolfsburg fans spontaneously stood side by side, letting the rousing music drift along the Rhine River.

The salad bowls by the stadium were surrounded by music, as if they had been engraved with names in advance.

"Cologne couldn't even touch the ball. All they could do was keep running and running, watching the time tick away!"

"Qin Ming's ball reception turned the football field into a stage; look at his agile movements as he continuously lobs the ball!"

Watching him play football is a pure joy!

"He made the proud Cologne fans stand up and give him a warm and sincere round of applause!"

"."

In the last minute of stoppage time, Qin Ming nutmegged Yuya Osako, then turned and spiked the ball, nutmegging him a second time.

Just as he was about to make a long pass to Perisic, he heard two short and one long whistle.

Beep-beep-beep!
The 34th round of the Bundesliga has concluded!
At the RheinEnergieStadion, a burst of fireworks erupted, and green smoke billowed out.

The once tranquil banks of the Rhine were now bustling with excitement.

"VFL!!!" Wolfsburg players, both on the field and on the bench, wildly raised their arms and ran across the green field against the wind.

Coaching staff including Dietrich Hecking, team doctor, photographer, and other personnel also joined in the celebration.

Qin Ming quietly ran to the sidelines and stood silently in front of the trophy stand.

Bundesliga Trophy or Meisterschale!

These are the words engraved on the circle in the middle of the salad plate.

Looking to both sides of the disc, you can see five emerald green diamonds.

He couldn't help but ponder a question.

How much is a 175-carat rhinestone worth?

As he pondered this, he touched the cool diamond and found the feel to be absolutely wonderful.

He also seemed to sense history.

Every team gave their all for this trophy, and the fans cheered them on.

It shouldn't be called a trophy at this moment.

It should be a symbol of the team's strength and a testament to the fans' deep love.

"The 2014-15 Bundesliga season has come to an end!"

"These were 90 minutes of nail-biting action, and in the end, Wolfsburg emerged victorious, securing their victory for the entire season!"

"champion!"

"This is the best reward for their hard work and dedication!"

"The story of this Bundesliga season is very interesting. A midfielder sold by Chelsea and a winger kicked out by Bayern Munich have formed a perfect partnership that shines in the football world!"

"And Wolfsburg, with them as their core, defeated the giants Bayern Munich and won the league title by three points!"

Congratulations to Wolfsburg!

"Congratulations to Qin Ming and his teammates, and congratulations to the Wolfsburg fans! You can enjoy this wonderful moment!"
