Compared to Berlin and Amsterdam,

Hamburg has a more "avant-garde" nightlife atmosphere.

Whether on land, underground, on the water, or in the air, you can enjoy an unforgettable and passionate night.

Li Kang chose the water.

After hanging out in the downtown area with his teammates, he came to the Elbe River.

The Chu-Han boundary of Germany.

The dawn of victory on the European battlefield.

One of the symbols of the downfall of the Third Reich.

The group quickly negotiated a price and chartered a "clean" tour boat, touring the rugged northern river scenery.

"The recent schedule has been too easy!"

"I heard that Hoffenheim has been strong recently? Yes, the relegation team that we defeated at the beginning of the season."

"Relegation team?"

Van Dijk's understanding of the many Bundesliga teams is limited to pictures, texts, and videos.

Dino patiently explained: "Their current interim coach is Nagelsmann! My classmate... that kid's on-the-spot command ability is very strong, but it won't bring any trouble to Leverkusen."

....

Time flies.

Bayer Leverkusen rejected all special interviews and commercial endorsements, creating a quiet and monotonous training environment for Li Kang.

The devil's schedule of three-front battles was survived.

The following match dates are also very dense.

Old man Topp got sick, and the assistant coach Dino put on his armor and led Bayer Leverkusen all the way to victory in the domestic arena.

In the Bundesliga standings, Bayern and Dortmund are biting the heels of the Lions from North Rhine.

Li Kang's frequent appearances and playing time have aroused dissatisfaction from major European media.

"The German Cup against regional clubs also requires the super rookie to come off the bench?"

"The most tired young player in the five major leagues! Erasing his brilliance!"

"Leverkusen has no one available? Turning into a Scrooge!"

"Messi, Rooney, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Podolski were never so tired in their youth!"

The Spanish national team frantically sent faxes, tearfully complaining: The European Cup is imminent! Why let the Spanish genius enter the roster for those matches against minnow teams?

They also cited a series of injury examples of talented players in their youth.

Like Messi at 18 years old with a serious injury, ending his season.

Like Van der Vaart at 19 years old being ruined by Ajax, leaving sequelae.

Dino's personal social account was flooded with complaints from netizens.

Bearing tremendous pressure, he insisted on including the North Rhine genius in the roster every week after studying the physical examination report and asking about Li Kang's personal condition.

No way.

The league is about stability.

The club's bench depth is destined to be incomparable with Bayern.

Without Li Kang, this Leverkusen main lineup is destined to be unable to maintain its top position!

This isn't a movie where everyone has unlimited stamina.

Not to mention powerhouses like Monchengladbach and Schalke 04.

Even the second battle with Mainz almost overturned.

Son Heung-min and Bellarabi, who have the best stamina, were exhausted and had to be rotated.

Li Kang is also very tired; he doesn't have a "unlimited stamina" module.

The opponents in the domestic arena are also becoming more and more violent in their defensive actions against him.

Even with the "injury immunity physique," the accompanying pain will not be reduced much.

....

In the blink of an eye.

The Bundesliga match day arrived.

The entire Leverkusen team came to Baden-Württemberg, Germany.

They will challenge Hoffenheim, which has been on a roll recently.

The new head coach Nagelsmann is only 28 years old this year; he is simply the "Li Kang" of the coaching world!

Examining history will reveal that Ferguson was 45 years old when he became Manchester United coach, Wenger was 37 at Monaco, and Hiddink at 40 was still an assistant coach at Eindhoven.

The title of Hoffenheim's head coach has gradually changed from "the youngest head coach in Bundesliga history" to "the genius young coach of the Bundesliga!"

Without mentioning the past grievances between the two clubs.

Just凭 Kiessling's "ghost goal" back then has made Hoffenheim fans resentful for many years.

Plus the "massacre" experienced at the BayArena at the beginning of this season.

Hoffenheim is bound to give the North Rhine Lions a taste of bitterness at home.

....

Bayer Leverkusen's bus slowly drove into the Neckar Arena.

The players are in a relaxed state.

No matter how strong Hoffenheim is, it is only a minnow team struggling in the relegation quagmire.

The paper strength is not comparable to Leverkusen's worth.

Pre-match press conference.

Dino was a little nervous when facing his old classmate Nagelsmann.

The two even obtained their coaching certificates in the same period.

After a simple handshake and greeting,

The two young men quickly took their seats and began to accept interviews from reporters.

"Mr. Dino, Leverkusen defeated Hoffenheim at the beginning of the season. At that time, Li Kang got less than a minute of his Bundesliga debut time. Is it necessary for him to enter the roster to deal with weaker teams? Many outside voices feel that he should rest!"

"The physical examination report cannot specifically show... the degree of physical and mental fatigue!"

"He's still a kid!"

"Formal matches and training intensity are two different things!"

"Do you think you're filming a movie? There are no 18-year-old iron men in the five major leagues! Did you learn the tormenting methods from Simeone?"

"Li Kang should prepare well for the Champions League semi-finals! Instead of wasting his stamina on unimportant matches."

Dino was silent for a long time, accepting the bombardment from reporters.

The interview rules of the press conference were disrupted.

It seems that the entire Bundesliga is voicing dissatisfaction for the European war hero.

Of course, when the voices gradually subsided,

Leverkusen's assistant coach took a deep breath and said:

"Without Li, we don't have the strength to win the championship in front of Bayern Munich..."

"The other players on Leverkusen's central axis are not much stronger than the mid-to-upper-level clubs in the Bundesliga."

"All his physical indicators are normal."

The reporters turned their heads and threw the questions to Hoffenheim's coach.

Nagelsmann smiled and said confidently: "We will limit Li; he is the only threat!"

"9 goals and 2 assists in the Champions League, he has prematurely promoted the five major leagues' research on the offensive midfielder tactic."

"I originally thought I would have to wait for Havertz to grow up... to see the development of this tactic!"

"Football is a game of eleven people."

....

Neckar Arena.

The place was packed, with no empty seats.

Hoffenheim only has a few thousand people in the entire village, but their fans are all over Baden-Württemberg.

This is a very attractive team for the locals.

They created the "Hoffenheim Miracle" after Kaiserslautern.

And most of the players in the main lineup were born in their own youth training.

"Ctv5! Ctv5! Good evening, viewers and friends!"

"Now we are broadcasting live the 2015/16 season of the Bundesliga!"

"Hoffenheim hosts Bayer Leverkusen!"

"A contest between a Bundesliga dark horse and a Champions League dark horse!"

"The young Nagelsmann was not favored by the European media at the beginning of his appointment, but he led Hoffenheim all the way to victory!"

"The way he wins is not low-position defensive counterattack but likes to attack!"

"I am the commentator for this game, Duan Xuan!"

"Now I will introduce the starting lineups of both sides!"

"Wearing the blue striped home jersey is Hoffenheim; they are lined up in a 4-3-3 formation!"

"Goalkeeper: Baumann!"

"Left back: Kim Jin-soo!"

"Center backs: Süle, Schär!"

"Right back: Kaderabek!"

"Midfielders: Schwegler, Polanski, Jonathan!"

"Forwards: Kuranyi, Zuber, Volland!"

"Wearing the first away red jersey is Bayer Leverkusen, the formation is 4-2-3-1!"

"Goalkeeper:..."

....

A hot air balloon printed with the Bundesliga logo slowly rises into the air.

Hoffenheim fans burst into cheers!

"Hoffenheim!"

"Hoffenheim!"

"Hoffenheim!"

Dino sat nervously in the coach's seat.

The club has no way to study the opponent's tactical weak side; the direction of the game requires the players to exert their subjective initiative!

Along with the referee's whistle,

The game officially begins.

Leverkusen with possession.

Kießling kicks off and passes horizontally to Havertz.

The front and middle fields of both formations immediately launched a fierce melee.

Leno stood in the backfield and suddenly felt that this Hoffenheim was a bit unfamiliar. Where is that chicken team from the beginning of the season?

"Nagelsmann's frontcourt pressure is not as crazy as other teams."

"Pay attention to the distance maintained by the forward players and the midfield players. Hoffenheim pays more attention to strategy and overallity!"

...

8 minutes into the match.

Li Kang dribbled the ball past the opponent's half of the field, the 40-meter area.

Facing the pressing of Hoffenheim's three forward players, he opened the angle with his left foot and distributed the ball to Borges, who was inserted on the wing!

Pa!

Before the Samba full-back could steady the ball,

He was jointly stolen by Jonathan and Kim Jin-soo!

"Beautiful!"

"This is Nagelsmann's tactical characteristic, deliberately vacating the wing, forming a strong side in the middle to suppress Li Kang, and then letting the full-back and a midfielder cut off the ball distribution on the wing!"

"So far, there hasn't been..."

"Look at Hoffenheim's counterattack!"

...

Kim Jin-soo's speed is not fast.

But his teammates are fast!

Kuranyi, Zuber, and Volland launched three arrows at the same time, frantically impacting Bayer Leverkusen's midfield defense.

"Group-style forward insertion!"

"Vacate the defense when possessing the ball for a counterattack!"

"A delightful sprint formation!"

Bender and Kramer have no solution.

They can't stop them at all.

Watching the opponent's Korean full-back stir up a storm on the wing, they did not dare to lose their position to obstruct.

The thirty-meter area.

Jonathan Tah moved!

He rushed towards Kim Jin-soo!

I can't defend against fierce generals like Hazard and Sanchez, but I can't defend against you, Kim Jin-soo!

"Süle's insertion is bold and timely!"

"Kim Jin-soo is very smart! Hit the ribs!"

"Beautiful!"

...

Who would have thought that the opponent's center back would go to the penalty area as a support point!

Süle has a long time to adjust after receiving the ball!

But Leverkusen's defensive players did not block the passing line at the first time, and Van Dijk had no time to get away. He was still staring at Hoffenheim's center forward!

The meaningless pressing and movement of other people is exactly what Nagelsmann wants!

Süle sent a very low-quality through ball!

The football fluttered into the Leverkusen penalty area!

The line is rough.

At the moment of rolling out of the baseline,

Jonathan flew to pick the ball back!

"Beautiful reverse triangle!"

"Leverkusen's defense is too chaotic!"

"Schwegler!"

Hoffenheim's defensive midfielder rushed to the top of the arc of the penalty area and shot angrily at the ball!

The football roared through the paper-paste defense, brushed Leno's silver-white gloves, and slammed into the upper right corner of the goal!

1:0!!!

On the way back to defense, Li Kang was frantically obstructed and "timbered" by the opponent's midfielder Polanski.

Until he barely ran to the penalty area, he was already unable to prevent the accident from happening before his eyes.

The Neckar Arena, the whole audience cheered!

Hoffenheim fans in the nearby stands excitedly beat the railings!

Hoffenheim, tonight, is going to bring down the Champions League's top four!

We are on the road to rise!

...

"Beautiful!"

"Hoffenheim is like a changed team!"

"They have played out their overallity and aggressiveness, as well as the momentum of destroying the old and decaying!"

"The radical Nagelsmann took a risky move, and he has reaped rich rewards at the beginning of the game!"

"Süle's perfect through ball, Jonathan's reverse triangle tearing apart the defense, and Schwegler's angry shot at the ball! The three helped the team take the lead!"

"Leverkusen has to think of a way next."

"If Hoffenheim chooses to defend to the death."

Live broadcast room.

The barrage was dominated by a piece of "666."

-[Duan Xuan, you fake fan, don't talk nonsense. Hoffenheim won't defend to the death after leading. The new generation of the Bundesliga "honey badger"!]

-[Keep a normal heart, with Li Mingdeng around, Leverkusen will be able to complete the counterattack 100%!]

-[It's hard to say. I now suspect that the opponent's coach can rely on tactics and command to lead ordinary teams into the Champions League's top four, instead of relying on Little Li Zi to save his life like Leverkusen!]

-[Nagelsmann is a genius coach. The five major leagues haven't figured him out yet. His tactical characteristics are completely a mystery!]

-[It's a pity that such a good coach doesn't coach Bayern.]

-[I declare that Hoffenheim will amaze Europe next season like Leicester City of the Premier League!]

....

Sideline.

Dino's eyes were dull.

I don't understand at all.

My old classmate's tactical framework is unheard of!

The Leverkusen coaching staff was busy and clueless.

On the other side,

Nagelsmann did not celebrate.

He is a very stable person.

When everyone was reveling, he was still constantly writing and drawing on the draft paper.

He grabbed the jumping assistant coach and arranged the next task.

.....

Leno angrily accused his teammates on the defense line, spraying saliva!

"Don't lose your position! Why are you going to rob the Korean? That's what Kramer and Bender should do!"

"Why doesn't Bender press? Why are you, a defensive midfielder, retreating?"

"And Borges! Li's ball was distributed so comfortably, and Brandt also ran out of the gap. Why are you still grinding and want to play fancy moves?"

"We must be clear in our thinking! Hoffenheim is not a weak team now!"

"They have played their own rhythm!"

Li Kang's brain spread wildly.

Recap the offensive details of Hoffenheim.

It's useless.

I can't find any similar or similar cases.

It can't be cracked in a short time at all.

But the opponent's tactical framework is not perfect. Leverkusen players are fully capable of resolving the danger and controlling the initiative.

....

18 minutes into the match.

The distance between the three lines in the Leverkusen formation was widened.

Jonathan inserted into the gap between the back line and the midfield line.

Zuber retreated.

Li Kang and Van Dijk frantically stopped their teammates from being misplaced!

It's useless.

Football is a game of eleven people.

The paper-like defense was torn apart by the most clever and cutting-edge offensive system in the five major leagues!

Kuranyi and Volland gained space to sprint forward.

Süle kicked the ball.

The rough and clumsy passing line once again penetrated Leverkusen's backcourt.

"One-on-one!"

"Kuranyi!"

"There is also Volland as a support!"

"Leno against two!"

"Here it is!"

Peng!

Kuranyi killed into the penalty area and shot angrily!

The football roared towards the Leverkusen goal!

Still the upper right corner!

Nagelsmann has studied every Leverkusen player to the extreme!

Pa!

Leno jumped up and struggled to hold the football!

Didn't go in.

But tens of thousands of Hoffenheim fans are crazy!

All the cameras followed the tidal wave of sound on the scene... shaking violently!

We are about to kill the Champions League's top four!

"Incredible!"

"Incredible offensive!"

"Nagelsmann, a genius coach! He is teaching the whole of Europe how to play this Leverkusen!"

"Hoffenheim almost extended the lead!"

"Perhaps their players are not strong, but they have firmly suppressed Leverkusen at the tactical level!"

"Football is a team sport!"
