Seven Crowns

Chapter 231 Fearless

Hoffenheim are at home with fifth-placed Bayer Leverkusen after a few days of hiatus against Borussia Mönchengladbach.

There is no doubt that this is a strong dialogue between the two powerhouses at the top of the standings.

Coupled with the absence of Hoffenheim Ibisevic and Aubasi, it will undoubtedly add a lot of variables to this game.

Even if Eduardo returns, there are still many media who believe that Hoffenheim will face greater difficulties in this game.

As can be seen from the last match where Hoffenheim was drawn by Borussia Monchengladbach, the absence of Ibisevic and Aubasi has caused a serious blow to Hoffenheim's offensive line.

When Leverkusen arrived in Rhein-Neckar County for a pre-match press conference, head coach Labbadia also called out publicly, saying that Borussia Monchengladbach could draw Hoffenheim, the goal of Leverkusen. It's the victory over Hoffenheim.

The whole Hoffenheim team didn't take Labadia's big words to heart.

After all, Hoffenheim only lacked Ibisevic and Obasi, not the whole team collapsed.

The main attacking midfielder Eduardo returned, and the top scorer Lu Wenbin performed normally. No matter how you look at it, Hoffenheim will not be afraid of Leverkusen at home.

Lu Wenbin also wanted to lead the team to use a strong dialogue to declare to the world that Hoffenheim has the ability to continue to make great progress in the second half of the season until they finally win the championship.

However, it may be that Lu Wenbin and Hoffenheim's performances in the first half of the season were so dazzling that God became jealous and couldn't stand it any longer.

So, when Hoffenheim's home game against Bayer Leverkusen started at 20:30 on the evening of February 13, what happened on the field gave Hoffenheim another blow.

Less than 10 minutes into the game, neither team had scored a goal yet. Hoffenheim's main central defender, No. 24 Per Nelson, was injured while defending the opponent's striker Keasling.

Nilsson tackled Keasling who was breaking through with the ball. Keasling jumped up to dodge, lost his center of gravity and stepped on Nilsson's ankle when he fell, causing Nilsson to be injured and dripping with blood.

After the initial diagnosis after the team doctor dealt with the injury, Nilsson suffered a serious ankle injury and required surgery, and he would be out of action for at least two months.

Salihovich, Eduardo, Baker and others all looked extremely heavy when they saw Nilsson covering his face and crying as he was carried down on a stretcher.

Many male fans in the stands of the Rhine Neckar Arena held their heads,

Gritting his teeth, his eyes showed despair. Many female Hoffenheim fans covered their mouths and couldn't help crying.

In the first half of the season, almost no one in the team was injured. As a newly-promoted horse, they won consecutive victories on the three fronts of the Bundesliga, the German Cup and the UEFA Cup. The whole world was exclaiming the miracle of Huo Village.

Who knew that Hoffenheim would suffer such a series of heavy blows starting from the winter training camp?

First, the main center Ibisevic was seriously injured and was reimbursed for the second half of the season, then Eduardo was suspended, and then Aubasi suffered from repeated muscle strains.

When today's strong dialogue with Bayer Leverkusen, Eduardo came back from the ban, just as Hoffenheim was about to revive and fight against the opponent, the team's defense backbone and main central defender Neil Pine left the game with a serious injury and will be out for at least two months.

It was as if there was a force behind Hoffenheim's progress.

The German sports TV commentator Dickenson in the commentary box shook his head and sighed: "Hoffenheim's main defender Nilsson left the field with a serious injury, and their back line is facing collapse. I don't know why, starting from the winter training camp. , Hoffenheim's players have been seriously injured in less than a month. Three main players, Ibisevic, Aubasi, and Nilsson, are the most important positions. There are still 14 league rounds before the end of the season. Finheim's lead in the standings doesn't look so secure now either."

Other commentators also raved about the situation on the field, sighing over Hoffenheim's prospects for this game and the second half of the season.

Indeed, Nilsson's serious injury left the field, and the score was immediately reflected in the next game.

After Neil Song came off, Ralph had to change to No. 5 Compel, who was originally playing at right back but was squeezed out of the main position by Baker, and let him partner with Yanker at center back.

However, after being squeezed out of the main position by Baker this season, Compel has not played many games, not to mention the central defender position he is not good at?

On the forward line, Lu Wenbin cooperated awkwardly with Pargic, which greatly affected the acquisition of shooting opportunities, not to mention the central defender combination that requires more cooperation to cooperate in joint defense and does not allow mistakes.

Just minutes after the restart, in the 17th minute, Bayer Leverkusen midfielder Vidal took advantage of the hole between Yanker and Compel to pass a through ball.

Bayer Leverkusen striker Jekas succeeded in anti-offside. After receiving the ball on the line of the big penalty area, he fired a kick. The ball flew past Ozjan, who was attacking, and flew into the goal.

The referee immediately circled his fingers and blew the whistle that the goal was valid.

In the 17th minute, Leverkusen scored the first goal, and Hoffenheim fell 0-1 to Leverkusen at their home stadium, the Rhein-Neckar Arena.

Goalkeeper Ozjan made a save, but the distance was too close to have any effect. In the end, he could only kneel on the ground and turn his head to look at the ball that flew into the goal, and thumped his hands to express his helplessness.

The main center defender Yanker, who failed to stop the opponent's striker Yekas, also looked helpless. He looked at Compel, but couldn't say anything.

Compell, who was hit by a through ball in a wrong position and lost the ball, lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Maybe he was annoyed by his own mistakes, maybe he was annoyed by the team's ghost luck, or maybe he was annoyed that the coach shouldn't have sent him to play central defender.

Hoffenheim, both players and fans in the stands, looked lifeless amid the cheers of Leverkusen players and more than a thousand away fans.

Including the Hoffenheim players on the field, many people are wondering if God is stopping Hoffenheim's progress, and does not want Hoffenheim to win the Bundesliga championship and stage a miracle of newly-promoted winning the championship.

This kind of thinking will undoubtedly discourage some people who believe in God, lose their fighting spirit, and lose their strength to resist.

Only Lu Wenbin was not discouraged.

If there is anyone on the field who does not believe that God is stopping Hoffenheim, it is undoubtedly Lu Wenbin, who has a football championship system.

Even this kind of plug-in system can be obtained by Lu Wenbin. Which player in this world has the luck with him, and which team has the luck of the team he plays for?

Perhaps, the heavy blows and predicaments we are currently facing are just the test of God for Lu Wenbin and Hoffenheim.

They won too easily in the first half of the season. God will test Hoffenheim's willpower to see if they can stand it.

If Hoffenheim collapsed on its own and gave up resistance, it would have deserved to lose the game, and even more deserved the fact that it could not win the Bundesliga championship under the current good situation.

Therefore, Lu Wenbin did not get discouraged and admit defeat.

He ran back to his goal from the front, picked up the ball in the goal, and ran to the halfway line while beckoning his teammates to cheer up.

Lu Wenbin encouraged everyone loudly, the team is only one goal behind, they will definitely be able to tie and win.

They won the half-time championship and created the world-famous Huo Village miracle. They are Hoffenheim without any worries and fears.
