Chapter 1 A Score of 1:0

Atlantic Stadium, the LED screen in mid-air showed a score of 1:0.

The stands erupted with thunderous applause.

Spanish fans were happy about the lead.

German fans were also satisfied with their team's performance, believing that their team was only a little bit of luck away from scoring.

The players from both sides slowly walked off the green field.

De Gea put his hand on Li Kang's shoulder and said as they walked, "Li, the German team will intensify their pressing in the second half. Remember to remind me when to move forward. Alonso used to remind me."

Li Kang nodded seriously.

De Gea wasn't a rookie, but the Spanish pass-and-control system had "unique" requirements for goalkeepers.

If the goalkeeper could expand his coverage area and become an important passing point in the backfield, increasing the passing options for his teammates, he could improve the team's overall defense, forcing the German team to commit more players to pressing.

It was normal for him not to be used to the pass-and-control system.

He came from Atletico Madrid's youth training system.

At 18, he was the most dazzling super-genius goalkeeper in La Liga.

Against the "Triple Crown" Inter Milan, he descended like a god, helping his team win the European Super Cup.

At 21, he joined Manchester United for the second-highest goalkeeper fee in the world, becoming the nightmare of Premier League shooters.

The early part of his career… it was simply the perfect template for a goalkeeper novel.

But the tactical systems of Atletico Madrid and Manchester United were very different from the Spanish national team.

To put it more generally.

Weak teams and strong teams…

No, it was "beaten" teams and "beating" teams, which had different requirements for the characteristics of goalkeepers.

If you put a goalkeeper-forward like Neuer at Atletico Madrid or Manchester United, he might not be stronger than De Gea.

If you put De Gea at Schalke 04 or Bayern, he might not be able to make it to the top.

A player's career plan and transfer choices were crucial.

...

The two passed through the German team's command area.

Low seemed to be waiting for something, and enthusiastically extended his hand towards Li Kang.

De Gea's reaction arc was very short, and he grabbed the latex gloves he had just taken off and shook hands.

Li Kang greeted him politely.

Even the photographer felt that this shot was a bit awkward.

Low smiled and patted De Gea on the back of the head affectionately.

...

A moment later.

The Spanish locker room.

Team doctors and masseurs were serving veterans like Iniesta.

Minano adjusted the position of the tactical board.

The coaching staff began to explain the problems that might occur in the second half.

"At the end of the first half, the German team was also resting, and the opponent didn't commit too many players to pressing."

"Our pass-and-control system didn't exhaust most of their players' energy."

Minano quickly interjected, "That's right, I saw the German assistant coach taking notes while observing. In the second half, they will definitely target a few of our weaker passing points in the backfield!"

"Weaker passing points…"

Everyone's eyes involuntarily shifted to San José.

The Basque center-back scratched his head awkwardly.

In terms of defense alone, he was at his peak, not weak at all. His steady performance last season vaguely touched the threshold of the top few in Europe. After all, he was a top student at the Athletic Bilbao youth academy and Liverpool's Kirkby Academy.

It was just that he gave away a penalty in the last game against Italy, and he had also made a few too many passing mistakes in this game.

Ramos and Juanfran were about to help the young center-back explain.

An old voice sounded, easing the awkward atmosphere in the locker room.

"There are no weaker passing points."

"Our backfield and midfield are disconnected on a stylistic level."

"It is precisely this disconnection that has withstood the German team's two threatening attacks in the first half."

Del Bosque patted his big belly and said easily.

His gentle gaze swept over the substitute players…

Li Kang stared at the small flags on the tactical board, gradually becoming entranced.

Isco quietly moved his position to the side, not daring to disturb him.

In the past, contrary to the ratings and attention, the tactics of the national team were far behind those of the club. It was not that the coaching staff of the national team was of a low level, but that it was not so easy for your national team to spend money to buy people to build a team, and there was not much time for training and cooperation between players.

But there were a few exceptions.

They moved the system of the strongest giants in their league to the national team…

In this way, it was a dimensionality reduction blow to other teams.

.....

The German team's locker room.

There was no negative atmosphere, nor any inspiring speeches.

The players rested and relaxed in an orderly manner.

Low gently explained the tactical adjustments for the second half.

He was a stubborn person.

But he wouldn't express his stubbornness with angry emotions.

The situation of being one goal behind would not affect the morale of the German team for the time being.

....

The fifteen-minute half-time break ended quickly.

The player tunnel.

Havertz excitedly gave Li Kang a hug.

It had been more than a month since they had met, and he had a lot to say.

Boateng quickly reminded, "The cameras of the whole world are pointed at you, don't act like a little girl! We represent the national team now!"

The Bayern center-back meant well.

The German team was now behind. Although the morale of the players and coaching staff was not affected, the fans would definitely be uncomfortable.

How could they be so close to their opponents?

If they lost this game, anything could become a reason for the fans to vent their anger, and there would definitely be many questions and criticisms directed at Havertz.

This kind of pressure would affect the professional growth of young players. There were not so many "clear-headed" Kroos.

In national team competitions, club friendships must be restrained.

Havertz immediately calmed down and slowly let go.

Li Kang smiled.

He didn't expect that the duel with his former teammate would come so quickly.

....

Tens of thousands of spectators returned to their seats.

Atlantic Stadium returned to its hustle and bustle.

As the players stepped back onto the green field, the fans on both sides were also competing in momentum.

"Good evening, everyone, welcome back!"

"We are now broadcasting the 1/4 knockout match of the 2016 European Cup."

"The second half of the match between Spain and Germany!"

"Del Bosque has not made any substitutions for the time being."

"Low on this side, Havertz has replaced Götze!"

"A very bold positional substitution!"

"This 17-year-old comes from Leverkusen and is a teammate of Li Kang in the same club!"

...

The live broadcast room.

The number of viewers returned to its peak.

-[If I hadn't watched this year's European Cup, I wouldn't have known that there was a club called Leverkusen in the world.]

-[I haven't watched football for many years. This Havertz is quite handsome. He's so tall and strong at 17. Is he a center forward?]

-[He has strong explosive power, powerful headers, good vision, high football IQ, and excellent technique, but he can't play as a center forward. He is the perfect product of "position blurring", a versatile player in the frontcourt, unless there is a Li Mingdeng (lighthouse) behind him like in the club.]

-[Low is crazy to let an inexperienced 17-year-old play in the European Cup?]

-[Not necessarily, with a group of German older brothers leading him, Havertz may be able to upgrade like Little Li.]

......

Accompanied by the referee's whistle.

The second half of the match officially began.

Spain had possession.

Cazorla passed the ball back to Li Kang.

"We can see that the German team has increased the number of players pressing in the frontcourt!"

"Low's coaching team has analyzed Spain's weak passing points based on the situation in the first half. Wow! Six players have crossed the opponent's half!"

"Too crazy!"

"He has the confidence to be crazy. Standing on the defensive line are Boateng and Hummels!"

Duan Xuan and He Wei were stunned.

Why did it feel a bit like watching Bayern beat Barcelona in the 12/13 season?

...

Pa!

Li Kang passed the ball to Carvajal, who was on the wing.

Kimmich quickly approached.

The Real Madrid full-back couldn't find a suitable passing route for a while. Even if he broke through, his teammates didn't run into open space.

He could only pass the ball to Iniesta, who was supporting him.

At the same time.

Khedira "slowly" stuck to him.

The 32-year-old Iniesta, who was plagued by injuries, was far less strong than before.

He wasn't afraid of being pressed, but he was very annoyed by being "stuck" by the opponent.

Without dragging his feet.

It was also a one-touch pass.

The moment Busquets received the ball, his vision was blocked by Müller's face!

Pa!

The Barcelona defensive midfielder turned half a circle, easily completed the move, and passed the ball back to goalkeeper De Gea.

Not far away.

Schweinsteiger was active in the area near Li Kang.

He didn't dare to get too close, for fear that Li Kang would bend down again after receiving the ball and pass him cleanly.

Fortunately, he was now familiar with the opponent's characteristics.

Steel Piggy was a man who could disgust Xavi and Messi.

What "love's magic circle" and "dreamy dance steps"... Schweinsteiger was very familiar with.

"The German team's thinking is very clear."

"Limit these three points of 'Li Bai Bu' and force the ball to Spain's backcourt! Seize the mistakes of the weak passing points!"

"Ordinary teams can't really play this set, without the right players."

"Look at the abilities of Khedira, Müller, and Schweinsteiger, they are all particularly outstanding."

"Well... it's more like Tian Ji's horse racing (using one's strengths to attack the opponent's weaknesses)."

"Oh! Havertz almost intercepted the ball."

"It's okay, it's okay, De Gea is very stable, the main goalkeeper of a Premier League giant."

"What the German team has to do next: wait for Spain to make a passing mistake."

....

Time passed minute by minute.

Spain's midfield and backfield passing gradually produced mistakes.

Possession was lost repeatedly.

Fortunately, there were many support points in the midfield. Relying on the on-the-spot counter-attack, they could always regain possession without any danger.

Busquets and Iniesta seemed to recall the fear of being dominated by Heynckes' Bayern.

The time when "Ha Bai Bu" stepped down from the altar was from that year's 7:0 massacre.

Other teammates were also gradually unable to maintain the stability of passing and the triangular running position under the high pressure of the German team...

Midfield control was declining.

It was difficult to stabilize possession with Li Kang alone.

Atlantic Stadium.

Spanish fans gradually fell silent.

German fans became more and more happy.

...

53rd minute of the match.

Khedira tripped Iniesta, intercepted the football.

The German team's overall offensive formation instantly exploded with extremely shocking impact!

It was like a torrent of steel, about to crush the matador's red cloth!

Bip!

The referee blew his whistle and gave the German defensive midfielder a verbal warning.

"Looking at the slow motion, there is no problem with this call, it is indeed a foul."

"Too terrible, if the Spanish team is really intercepted, the consequences would be unimaginable."

"Only the German team can bring them a threat."

...

In the God's perspective.

Li Kang observed that the German team's midfield was disconnected from the backfield. It was a physical disconnection of distance, not a stylistic disconnection like Spain's.

But there was no chance to pass the ball and tear apart the defense.

Cazorla, Koke, and David Silva were not high-speed burst points.

Passing forward would only lose possession.

But if a striker was substituted, the Spanish team would lose a passing point in the midfield, and the control would decrease when facing the German team's pressure.

A bit difficult.

Schweinsteiger also felt a bit difficult.

After a few close physical collisions, he truly felt how terrifying Li Kang's physical fitness was.

Much harder than Xavi!

And he always used his back or side, one-touch passing in motion.

Hiding the weakness of facing the ball head-on.

This made the German midfielder feel a bit lost, feeling that he had become a little transparent.

'Is there a possibility that whether I stick to Li Kang or not, the result is the same?'

....

On the sidelines.

Minano said worriedly, "Boss, should we substitute Pique... The score is still leading, it would be safer to defend in a low position..."

Del Bosque shook his head:

"If we give up possession and defend in a low position, the German team will have many advantages, including maximizing the consumption of our defensive players' stamina."

"Let Morata take off his vest!"

Minano hesitated for a moment and asked, "Boss, if Morata comes on, our midfield control..."

Del Bosque interrupted, "The connection between Li and Morata can make the German team afraid!"

The old man's voice was very loud.

Morata excitedly took off his vest and walked out of the substitute seat.

On the other side.

Zorg quickly urged the team members to come up with countermeasures.

Low crossed his arms in front of his chest and said calmly, "According to the original plan, there is no need to reduce the number of pressing players. Morata's characteristics do not pose a threat to our defense."

....

64th minute of the match.

The pass between Busquets and Iniesta was intercepted again!

The one who made the contribution was Kimmich!

With a must-win heart.

The Bayern youngster blew the horn of attack.

He once again set off a torrent of steel, frantically devouring Spain's half!

With a snap.

The connection between Kimmich and Müller was also cut off.

Li Kang flew in with a tackle and poked the ball out of bounds!

"What a scare!"

"Li Kang's interception is very key!"

"Oh? At this time, the referee signaled a substitution!"

"Diego Costa is standing on the sidelines!"

....

Zorg was a little confused.

Didn't you say it was Morata?

Why did you put on Diego Costa?

Soon, the German team's coaching staff became busy again.

Low frowned:

"No, that guy will pose a big threat to our defense."

"The connection between Li and Diego Costa is terrifying."

"Prepare to have Khedira fall back, wait! That's not right, Spain has substituted a striker, and the midfield will also lose a passing point..."

A midfield master who can send super-long through balls from the backfield.

A beast-like frontline killer.

It was the nightmare of all high-level defenses.

The German coach fell into a brief contradiction. Looking at Li Kang's back, he felt more and more confused.

'Why does there exist a midfield player in this world who puts his opponents in a dilemma?'

....

Many people in the world of football have quirks.

For example, Low picking his nose, Suarez biting people.

Diego Costa's situation was a little better: he liked to pluck other people's leg hair.

Alonso suffered a lot from it in the last World Cup.

"The one who is replaced is David Silva!"

"Diego Costa, the striker from Chelsea, is on!"

"Spain's formation should become 4-5-1!"

On all four sides of the stands.

Applause mixed with boos.

Which La Liga fan outside of Atletico Madrid doesn't hate Diego Costa?

....

The match resumed.

Kimmich threw the ball in.

After receiving the ball, Kroos didn't make too many redundant adjustments and decisively sent a diagonal pass.

The trajectory of the surgical knife cut through Spain's half!

"The German team launches a quick attack."

"A cruise missile-like pass!"

Draxler stopped the ball in the rib area.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when the Spanish defense was shrinking the distance.

He suddenly kicked!

Not a shot.

It was a lob pass.

The football rose off the ground, drawing an arc in the air, and plunged into the Spanish penalty area!

Havertz had been waiting for a long time.

At this stage, he was not good at grabbing points and could not move earlier than Ramos to find a shooting space.

But his ability to predict the situation was very strong, and his prediction of the ball path was also very accurate. He had chosen the most comfortable position!

"There's no time!"

"This time, most of Spain's defensive attention was focused on Müller!"

"Havertz's positioning is too good!"

"Header!"

Ping!

Havertz jumped high and headed the ball with his waist arched!

The football went straight into the upper left corner of the Spanish goal!

The German team's coaching staff couldn't help but celebrate in advance.

Minano held his head in horror.

The hearts of the fans on both sides were instantly occupied by their respective joys and sorrows.

Could it be that... another talented young player was about to shine in France?

In the midst of the crisis.

A pair of platinum-gold gloves blocked everyone's thoughts!

"Amazing save!"

"De Gea's amazing save!"

"Too wonderful!"

"Don't lie down and delay for a while?"

"A hand pass! It's a counterattack!"

"Looking for Li Kang!"

Havertz covered his forehead in surprise.

Before he had time to adjust his emotions, he saw the football pass over his head!

....

The audience also hadn't adjusted their emotions.

Spain, who was leading by one goal, wasn't delaying time?

The camera moved at high speed following the trajectory of the football.

At the landing point.

Two figures were already standing there.

Li Kang and Kroos.

The ownership of the ball would determine the continuation of the two teams' offense.

Would it be a second attack by the German team?

Or a desperate counterattack by Spain?

There was no dazzling, romantic peak duel.

Spain's number 6 leaned against Germany's number 18 with his back.

He stopped the ball with his chest.

In the God's perspective, he sensed Schweinsteiger's approach.

The football did not shift in the slightest.

It landed quietly in front of him.

The shadow of "Bergkamp" flashed away.

Li Kang raised his left foot and tapped it with his heel.

Kroos and Schweinsteiger looked terrified: the football slipped out from under their noses!

"Too wonderful!"

"He was able to find a passing space under the encirclement of two top German midfielders!"

"He found Cazorla, who ran into the open space!"

Arsenal's balanced weirdo was not just blown out of proportion.

The ball reached his feet.

Cazorla stretched his body comfortably.

Ping!

A large arc suddenly appeared in mid-air.

The end of the trajectory was the German team's backfield.

....

German team's backfield.

Boateng and Hummels weren't so lonely.

Because next to them, there was a Spanish striker who would talk trash.

The vulgar and obscene content made the two of them blush... They couldn't wait to pick up the Chelsea striker and beat him up.

"It's time to work!"

Diego Costa stomped hard on the grass, like a wild bull, rushing to the backfield!

Boateng and Hummels weren't slow.

After turning around, they chased hard!

"Blood is spurting!"

"A heart-throbbing scene!"

"A competition of strength and speed!"

The football fell on the grass and bounced high.

Diego Costa's shoulders on the left and right sides... were sandwiched by the German center-backs!

He didn't fall to the ground.

He liked this kind of confrontation the most.

He adjusted his center of gravity and exerted force again!

Hummels staggered and fell to the ground.

Boateng was hot on his heels!

The Chelsea striker's right instep touched the ball first.

He suddenly burst forward.

He was killing towards the German team's penalty area.

The noise was everywhere!

German fans tried to interfere with boos.

Spanish fans shouted excitedly.

....

"A one-on-one!"

"Boateng can't keep up anymore? Is he about to be left behind?"

"This kind of opportunity is foolproof for Diego Costa."

"Hey? Ter Stegen's attack is too timely!"

"Neuer incarnate!"

Ter Stegen rushed out of the penalty area and went straight to Diego Costa.

Boateng had already helped me block the angle of the lob shot.

Next.

I am about to prove to everyone.

I am no worse than Neuer!

Ping!

Diego Costa fell to the ground!

The football bounced to the backfield.

....

German team's station.

Neuer grabbed the quilt tightly, in anger, "You idiot, why don't you clear the ball out of bounds! Pay attention to Li's position!"

...

"A brilliant clearance!"

"Ter Stegen..."

"Hey?"

Accompanying the trajectory of the football.

The Spanish number 6 jersey appeared in the camera.

The impeccable run-up posture.

Made all German fans' hearts tight.

...

On the sidelines.

Minano was dumbfounded.

Del Bosque looked astonished.

Low frowned.

Was he going to shoot?

That was more than forty meters away from the goal...

....

In Li Kang's vision, the shadow of the red number 7 condensed in the wind.

He subconsciously imitated the shadow's actions.

His body was slightly tilted.

His left leg was gently raised.

Between gestures.

It was as if something was frantically permeating into the blood.

It was the shooter's instinct!

The hunting moment!

..

The moment of contact.

The shadow disappeared.

In Atlantic Stadium, tens of thousands of people exclaimed, they could no longer take their eyes off it.

It was as if all the spotlights in the stadium were only shining on Li Kang.

A perfect shooting posture.

There was no powerful and fierce momentum.

There was no terrifying roar that resounded through the night sky.

The football in mid-air rotated violently, like a beautiful silk ribbon fluttering in the wind, like an enchanting and dazzling gem, like a gorgeous rainbow leaping across the sky.

.......

Ter Stegen raised his head, his face pale.

There was nothing he could do.

There was nothing the German team could do.

No force could stop this goal.

The football seemed to leap over the vicissitudes of life, slammed heavily on the grass, and lightly bounced into the German team's goal.

2:0!!!

Everyone's thoughts instantly returned to reality.

"Wow! Beautiful!"

"The ball is in!"

"An amazing super-long lob shot!"

"Peerless elegance!"

"He has created another great legendary moment!"

"Forty-five meters! A super-long lob shot from forty-five meters away from the goal! Unbelievable!"

"A height and angle that can't be faulted at all!"

"A brace!"

"Li Kang, the 18-year-old Spanish youngster from Leverkusen, has broken through the German team's goal twice!"

"The German team! His opponent is the champion of the last World Cup! The German team!"

"He has made people in two countries exclaim!"

"He has helped the Spanish team expand their lead!"

Duan Xuan grabbed He Wei's shoulder hard.

Hold back, more crazy lines have to be saved for the semi-finals and finals.

...

Live broadcast room.

The audience was stunned.

-[Fuck, that's awesome!]

-[Li Mingdeng is so handsome!]

-[How many goals will Li Kang have to score in this European Cup to be selected for that Pu what Ska Award?]

-[A lob shot is not a rare thing, but the opponent is the German team.]

-[Ter Stegen didn't have the chance to be a teammate with Li Kang, so he sent an assist.]

-[Neuer dodged a bullet.]

-[What's going on? I clearly felt that the German team could equalize, why did Spain score again?]

-[Li Mingdeng's arsenal is too rich, it's awesome!]

-[Why did Spain let Diego Costa start? Wouldn't it be over if he came on earlier?]

-[Cup matches are different, the strong-strong dialogue is to play cards with each other under the premise of ensuring that the basic plate does not collapse, if Diego Costa starts, the German team may not be able to give these two opportunities to break the goal, and Spain will also be difficult to stabilize the situation, tactical-level mutual probing, offensive and defensive game. If the score is always zero to zero, Del Bosque and Low may drag on until seventy minutes before making substitutions.]

....

Diego Costa pushed away Ter Stegen, quickly got up and ran to Li Kang.

Under the night, the Chelsea striker smiled brightly, as if he had scored the goal himself.

"When did you practice the lob shot!"

"I thought this ball was gone!"

Iniesta and Busquets looked at each other: the Nou Camp seemed to be getting further and further away from its crown prince.

De Gea excitedly ran over half of the field again to participate in the celebration.

The Spanish fans recovered and cheered excitedly.

"Lee!!!"

"Lee!!!"

"Lee!!!"

...

Ter Stegen sat on the grass, burying his head deeply in his knees.

He thought he was no worse than Neuer.

Why did he concede two goals in such an important game?

Why did he have to meet Li Kang?

Boateng sighed deeply and comforted him, "There's no time to be sad, if it was Neuer... the ending would be about the same."

....

German team's station.

Neuer's expression was very complicated.

He kept complaining about Ter Stegen's recklessness.

But in his heart, he was inexplicably a little... fortunate?

No!

If I were on the field, I definitely wouldn't lose so badly!

.......

On the sidelines.

Del Bosque and Minano raised their fists and cheered non-stop.

"Boss, weren't we going to substitute Morata?"

"Is that so? I've always been saying Diego Costa, well... it's the same, as long as he can help Li create opportunities."

"Boss, the German team is the champion of the last World Cup! Does this mean that we have half a hand raised on the European Cup trophy?"

"Cherish the present, in a few years, Li's teammates in the national team will have to change another batch."

On the other side.

Low rubbed his face, adjusted his mentality, and quickly urged several substitute players to warm up.

Zorg held a few pages of data reports blankly, muttering:

"Impossible... how could that kid's shooting skills be so superb."

....

Catalonia TV.

Enrique seemed to be several years older in an instant, feeling lost.

"Ter Stegen..."

"There was no problem with his attack, just bad luck."

"This kind of mistake..."

"Well, one million euros..."

....

VIP box.

The staff carefully covered Cruyff, who was fast asleep, with a blanket.

Beckenbauer smiled and shook his head, leaving in a soft and slow pace.

German football did not lose to Spain.

But lost to...

.....

The match continued.

The German team was very passive.

With the premise of being two goals behind, there were no more choices, they could only fight!

The "cover" formation was reorganized again.

The four passing points were restored to their original state, like four wheels, the German chariot roared and crushed towards Spain's half.

Pity.

The attack always fizzled out in the thirty-meter area.

Schweinsteiger realized at this time:

Li Kang's interception defense without the ball was even more terrifying!

He was like a pulley, constantly moving horizontally in front of the Spanish defensive line.

Relying on the cooperation of his teammates, he could always appear in the most critical position at the most critical time to complete the clearance or destruction.

"A wonderful positional warfare game."

"His defensive positioning is deliberately slower than Busquets."

"But the timing of the interception is faster than San José."

"The defense of this Spanish team has been raised to a new level!"

"Beautiful!"

"Spain's counterattack!"

"The connection between Li Kang and Diego Costa!"

"What a scare, Boateng made the contribution!"

....

Live broadcast room.

-[The German team's situation is so difficult, a dilemma.]

-[Why is it that when Spain plays pass-and-control, it is more dangerous than positional defense?]

-[Because from the beginning, the Spanish midfield and backfield were "disconnected" in style.]

-[The on-the-spot tactical adjustment changes in the match are very rich.]

-[Del Bosque's double insurance, he is afraid of repeating the same mistakes like Barcelona being massacred by Bayern, and he is also afraid that the players on the defensive line will consume too much stamina... but leading by two goals, near the end of the match, he is not afraid of the German team using the changes in the offensive rhythm to consume...]

-[I feel that the whole team is serving Li, including substituting Diego Costa.]

-[After passing the German team, the next two matches will be much easier.]

.....

Finally.

Bip! Bip bip~

The referee blew the whistle to end the match.

Spain 2:0 Germany!

"The match is over!"

"Congratulations to Spain, congratulations to Li Kang! They marched all the way, entering the semi-finals of the 2016 France European Cup!"

"They sent away Italy, sent away the German team."

"Let's think about it, at this moment, in Madrid, on the banks of the Manzanares River, in the Ronda Bullring, in the Balearic Islands, there must be countless Spanish fans cheering for it; and in Berlin, in Munich, in Hamburg, in Cologne Cathedral, there must also be countless German fans feeling sad about it."

"German players don't need to apologize to the fans at all, because they have already lifted the Hercules Cup that many people can't reach two years ago. Since ancient times, no team can always stand at the peak!"
