Chapter 58 The Worst Opening



Chapter 58 The Worst Opening

After entering the locker room, the assistant coach Manninger hurriedly greeted everyone to change their clothes and go out to warm up.

Li Rui looked at the cabinet where his No. 27 jersey was hung, and he still couldn't hide his excitement. Although Li Rui also used this cabinet during the winter break and during the warm-up match, after all, it is different from the current one. The feeling is incomparable.

"LEE, hurry up, warm up." Captain Thorsten Kracht watched Li Rui still in the captain's cabinet in a daze, and reminded with a smile. As someone who has experienced it, he certainly understands Li Rui's current mood.

"Here we come, Tolstoy." Li Rui hurriedly changed his jersey.

Others have already changed their jerseys, put away their belongings, and locked them in a cabinet. Li Rui saw Greek international Ioannis Amanatidis take out a red hat from the locker room and put it on his head Putting it on, muttering words, and then carefully hanging the hat into the cabinet...

Seeing Li Rui's surprised eyes, old goalkeeper Oka Nikolov patted his gloves and explained, "Giannis once performed a hat-trick in a game, and it was a gift from the fans after the game. , Once, Giannis put this hat on his head before the game, and he scored another hat trick in that game..."

Oka Nikolov whistled and did not continue, but Li Rui already understood that the hat has become the mascot of the Greek international since then...

This is not surprising. It is quite common among football players. Li Rui once heard that AC-Milan midfielder Gennaro Gattuso would loudly shout in the locker room before playing. Reading aloud, he thought, would calm him down.It doesn't matter what you read, you can read whatever is available in the locker room, newspapers, football game brochures, or...a book, he once recited Dante's "Divine Comedy" in the locker room, and in that game, Gattuso scored A wonderful long-range volley shot...

The most famous of such incidents occurred with the England national team, which won the World Cup in 1966, and their captain Bobby Moore was always the last to put on the shorts.At one point, another player, Martin Peters, joked with him by watching him put his shorts on and then take his own off.As a result, Bobby Moore immediately took off his shorts when he saw it. He waited until Peters put it back on before he pulled up his shorts. As a result... the England national team became the world champion at home...

…………

"Giannis, the hat is very beautiful." Li Rui said.

"Thank you, Panda Boy, God bless you." The Greek looked at Li Rui with devout eyes, and Li Rui hurried to the player tunnel. The guy's eyes were really unbearable.

**********
This is the second time that Li Rui has set foot on the turf of the Forest Stadium. The last time was in the warm-up match against Rapid Vienna, where he came off the bench for 10 minutes and made his debut in Frankfurt.

However, how can the warm-up match be compared with the Bundesliga! !
Li Rui stretched his legs on the field, then jogged for half a circle, and then practiced shooting.

His warm-up partner is Andreas Müller. Li Rui is really glad that he was able to come to Frankfurt. Here, he got the guidance of the most successful player in German history. This is the luck that cannot be met...

Muller picked up the ball and let Li Rui run over from two or three meters away to practice volleying directly. Muller would deliberately kick the ball to the ground and then let Li Rui shoot. Grasp, increase the difficulty of shooting...

"LEE, your supporting leg should be pressed down to avoid slipping, and you should pay attention to the instep, and draw it in the middle and lower part of the ball..." Muller said, the shot he said is the best way to shoot from a long distance. Pumped at the middle and lower part of the ball, the shot will have a strong drop, and the power is also very strong. The goalkeeper is most afraid of such a long shot.

…………

At this time, at the other end of the stadium, the figures of Bayern Munich players appeared.

Ballack, Kahn, Mackay, Demichelis...

Li Rui was a little dazed looking at these superstars who were talking and laughing as they were warming up. These are the stars that he could only see on TV. Now, they are not far away, and, after a while, they will be very interesting. It may be the opponent I directly confronted...

This feeling is very strange, it makes Li Rui feel a little convulsive, cool... Ha! !
"LEE, do you want me to ask them to help you get your autograph after the game?" Muller joked. In front of Le, he can only be regarded as a junior.

"No, I want to win Ballack's jersey after the game!!" Li Rui gritted his teeth and said, his teeth clucking, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, a confident smile.

Mueller was stunned for a moment, he realized that he was wrong, he shouldn't have made such a joke, it was a disrespect to a young man with a strong desire to fight, looked at the Chinese boy in front of him, "LEE, I really doubt , Where did your self-confidence come from?"

"Natural." Li Rui laughed, then suddenly remembered something, with a bitter look on his face, "Andres, I don't know if I can play yet?"

There is a saying that Li Rui always remembers, 'When you have nothing, self-confidence is your greatest wealth. '

Although, Li Rui's current self-confidence is more like the arrogance of the ignorant and fearless.

…………

After the warm-up, the substitute players returned to the locker room, put on their sports jackets, returned to the court, and sat on the bench, while the starters had to stay in the locker room, waiting for the entrance ceremony of both sides.

**********
Li Rui sat on the bench and looked at the stands of the Forest Stadium. About 3 fans had already entered the stadium. He looked over from the bench and saw that the flag was swaying in the night sky of minus 5 degrees in Frankfurt. It makes people's blood boil... Thinking of playing football amidst the cheers of tens of thousands of people, Li Rui felt his heart beating faster... Bang Bang...

"LEE, pull up your hat." Andres Muller said to Li Rui, seeing Li Rui's incomprehensible eyes, "This way, keep warm and sit on the bench. It's easy to catch a cold in this weather."

Li Rui put on the hood of his coat and tightened the zipper. He knew that these details, seemingly unimportant, were actually a rare experience of a successful veteran player.

…………

At this time, the players were ready to enter the field, and the announcer at the Forest Stadium began to cheer the names of the players loudly. The first one to be cheered by the players was not Frankfurt's captain Torsten Kracht, but the goalkeeper. Oka Nikolov, the Macedonian who has played for Frankfurt for 1991 seasons since 13, has demonstrated the loyalty of a small club! !
Next, every Eintracht Frankfurt player accepted the cheers of the home fans, and of course, Bayern Munich's big-name players stepped onto the pitch amid boos.

Today, CCTV is explaining the Bundesliga with gold medal partners Huang Jianxiang and Zhang Lu. When the TV screen switched to the Frankfurt Forest Stadium, players from both sides were entering the field.

"Well, today's Frankfurt's starting lineup is like this. South Korean player Cha Doo-ri appeared in the starting lineup again... Let's look at the players sitting on the bench. Muller still appeared on the bench today, but I don't know , How is his knee injury? Frankfurt now needs such a top player..." Huang Jianxiang looked at the information in his hand.

"Although it's outdated, Muller is still Muller, and no one dares to underestimate it." Zhang Lu took it over and said.

"There are not many unknown Germans called Muller..." Huang Jianxiang drank his saliva, "Next, the Polish veteran Kryzalowicz is also on the bench. When I partnered with Yang Chen... eh? Rui Li? It should be Li Rui, it seems that I heard that a Chinese player named Li Rui joined Leeds United for free, and was later loaned to Frankfurt for free? Is this the player?"

"That's right, it's called Li Rui." Zhang Lu said, "Ha, I'm on the roster today, I don't know if I can play...The game has started..."

As CCTV's gold medal commentator and guest commentator, the news is of course a bit better than ordinary people. For Li Rui, a name that is still unfamiliar to ordinary fans, I still know it. Of course, I also know that this player has a feud with a certain aspect.

…………

In front of the TV, Li Haisheng suddenly pushed his sleepy and confused wife, "Look, look, Xiao Rui."

When Zhang Huifen opened her eyes, the camera flashed past Li Rui, which made Zhang Huifen, who missed her son, blame herself for falling asleep at this time.

"It's okay, it's okay, anyway, Xiao Rui will play, and we will see it when we play." Li Haisheng comforted his wife and said, although he was also beating drums in his heart, wondering if his son would get the chance to play.

**********
The referee Merkel checked the nets on both sides, exchanged a few words with the assistant referee, and blew the whistle for the start of the game in the middle circle. After more than a month of winter break, 2003 -The focus of the 2004 Bundesliga season, Frankfurt VS Bayern Munich, started at 2004:1 on January 31, 19...

Bayern Munich kicked off first, Ma Kai knocked the ball back to Schweinsteiger, Schweinsteiger directly knocked the ball to the side, Lizarazu got the ball and ran all the way along the left After nearly 30 meters, a sudden inward cut, in desperation, Frankfurt right back Ingo Hedge had to pull the French left back down...

The 49-year-old commentator of Frankfurt Sports Station and the commentator of Frankfurt's home forest stadium, Song Kebeier, tightened the mineral water bottle in his hand, "Just 39 seconds into the opening, Bayern Munich won a free kick in the front court. Rucker standing on the penalty spot...is it going to be a big shot from long distance?...running...shot? ran past it...Zero Roberto kicked the pass...in the box...gooaal!!! God, Makay The Dutch header, our poor Oka Nikolov didn't expect his first goal in the Bundesliga in 2004 to come so fast..."

After a few seconds of silence in the sky above the Forest Stadium, harsh boos rang out. The first goal of the 2004 Bundesliga League at the Forest Stadium was born, but the goal was scored by the visiting team...Bayern Munich...

After scoring the goal, Ma Kai was extremely excited. He rushed to the stands of the fans of the visiting team, waving his arms wildly at the fans of Bayern Munich...

On the sidelines, Frankfurt's interim head coach Rolf Domen was holding his head in frustration, and conceded the ball as soon as he came up. This is really the worst ending... What's more, the opponent is Bayern Munich...
