Hoffenheim players were exhausted all the way and were exhausted on the crowded train. They only arrived in Dortmund at night and had no time to go to Westphalon Stadium in Dortmund for training to adapt to the venue. After dinner in the hotel and a simple tactical meeting, the players were caught by the coaches. They were tired for a day and had to rest in advance, otherwise they would inevitably lack energy when they woke up the next day.

But the experience on the train was only the first torture Hoffenheim suffered.

When all the players fell asleep, a huge sound of music and singing suddenly came outside the hotel, followed by the sound of car horns and the roar of the engine.

Some players were awakened. They jumped out of the bed and came to the window. They found that there were several cars parked on the road outside the hotel since when. There was a speaker on the roof, and Dortmund's team songs were playing inside. Those people were obviously Dortmund fans because they were all wearing Dortmund jerseys. In addition, there were several motorcycles shuttled back and forth, and the roar of the engines were made by them.

"Damn!" The Hoffenheim player who was awakened by never awakening from his dream was furious and started to curse.

Someone opened the window and shouted below.

However, their actions will only make the Dortmund fans below more excited. They not only play music and honk the horns, but also shout various slogans that insult Hoffenheim. Their purpose is not only to make Hoffenheim players rest well, but also to affect the mood of Hoffenheim players, make them lose their calmness, and be irritable, and they can't rest well. Then they can imagine their status in the game... "You group of nouveau riche! nouveau riche!"

"Hoffenheim, why don't your rich boss come?"

"We're going to twist his head off and kick it as a ball! Haha!"

"Bitch! You are just a bunch of bitches! A bunch of shameless foreign bitches!!"

"How about being eliminated from the Champions League, country bumpkins! Don't think that you can be presumptuous in the Champions League with money! You are different from us! We are the team that won the Champions League! You will never have it in your life!!"

They didn't just curse with their mouths. They used the tweeter, and the sound was louder and everyone could hear it. Some people even moved out searchlights. Once a Hoffenheim player leaned over to appear in the window, they would shoot the dazzling lights. Obviously, this group of people had been carefully planned and carefully organized. They were definitely not drunk and wanted to make a fuss. They even started planning and organizing more than a week ago. Otherwise, how could they move out so many professional equipment?

The huge noise, dazzling lights, and many unpleasant insults made Hoffenheim players dizzy.

After being tossed by them, all the Hoffenheim players were out of water. Even Chu Zhongtian was awakened. He walked to the window and frowned and looked at the group of Dortmund fans below.

Next to him was angry Weiss: "Damn it! These bastards! So mean!"

Hoffenheim came to Dortmund to play once, but they had not enjoyed such treatment at that time.

Rangnick and other members of the coaching staff were also awakened and found that it was Hoffenheim fans who were making trouble. Rangnick was particularly angry and called the police.

Generally speaking, the police should arrive five to ten minutes after calling the police. But this time, Dortmund's police made the entire Hoffenheim team wait for an hour and a half before they arrived late.

Before they arrived, the Dortmund fans who made trouble had already escaped and could not be found.

The police came around and did not find the "perpetrator". Instead, they also learned about the case with Rangnick and other coaching staff members for half an hour, which resulted in the rest of the Hoffenheim coaches for another half an hour.

What made Hoffenheim players and coaches very angry was that just ten minutes before the police arrived, Dortmund fans were still playing music with tweeters and pressing the car horn, and there was no sign of retreat at all. Just five minutes before the police arrived, they suddenly packed up their things and watched the car run away, very quickly. Just like they received some notice in advance, the police also tacitly waited for the Dortmund fans to escape before they arrived. The fans walked in front of the feet and the police arrived at the back of the feet, which made people suspect that they were hiding somewhere, waiting for the fans to leave before they came out to clean up the mess.

The Hoffenheim player who had been tossed for nearly half an hour returned to bed, but how many people could sleep? Not everyone could fall asleep again after being awakened for an hour and a half during sleep? Some people could fall asleep as soon as they fell asleep, and some people had difficulty falling asleep and were woken up after finally falling asleep. How uncomfortable and uncomfortable the unbearable taste is, it is really hard for people who have not experienced it.

So many players endured this torture until almost dawn before falling asleep.

After dawn, considering that many people did not have a good rest at night, Rangnick decided not to ask the players to get up for breakfast, but to let them continue to sleep and when to sleep.

Despite this, after dawn, the street below became very noisy and noisy, and there were not many players who could really rest.

Chu Zhongtian got up at eight o'clock anyway, and Weiss was still tossing and turning on the bed, as if he was sleeping but not sleeping.

Rangnick was surprised when he met Chu Zhongtian.

"I didn't say I had to get up so early today, Chu. You can continue to rest, I know yesterday..."

Chu Zhongtian shook his head: "I can't sleep anymore."

"Uh, I know it's very noisy outside now..." Rangnick expressed his understanding as he listened to the coming and going of cars and voices coming from outside.

Chu Zhongtian knew that his head coach had misunderstood and quickly explained: "No, no matter how late I go to bed or how long I sleep, I will get up after 7:00 and the biological clock has been formed."

Rangnick was a little surprised: "Ah...this is so good..."

Other players did not have as much energy as Chu Zhongtian. Many people tried their best to continue sleeping with the noise outside. Some people covered their heads with pillows, while others simply shrank their whole body into the quilt. Some people were wearing headphones and listening to music as if they were sleeping. But more people were actually half asleep and half awake, as if they were sleeping, but they could clearly hear various sounds coming from outside... It was not until around 11 o'clock that everyone got up one after another. But looking at their appearance, they could tell at a glance that they had not had a good sleep. They were weak when they greeted him, and they were like that even after washing up. Some people were unstable when walking.

Seeing such a player, Rangnick frowned even tighter.

How can such a team challenge Dortmund?

Dortmund fans have a deep hatred for Hoffenheim. They have tried all their means to interfere with Hoffenheim.

There was a press conference today. The pre-match press conference was originally scheduled yesterday, but when the press conference was held yesterday, the whole Hoffenheim team was still on the crowded train, so the interview with Hoffenheim head coach was scheduled in the morning.

The press conference just ended, at which Rangnick told everyone what he and his team encountered in the early morning, and he expressed his anger at Dortmund fans' unsports-oriented approach.

However, Dortmund's local media did not mention this matter at all. Hoffenheim's media criticized it widely. Dortmund had already used any means to win. It was obviously intentional for the police to come for an hour and a half. It was early in the morning, so there would never be traffic jams until an hour and a half before it was late, right?

"Obviously, those policemen are Dortmund fans. They hope that Hoffenheim will suffer more interference, so that when Hoffenheim players cannot perform at normal levels without rest, Dortmund will naturally win! This approach is immoral! If Dortmund needs to defeat Hoffenheim in this way, isn't such Dortmund worthy of our sorrow?"

Later, Dortmund's club manager Votsk condemned the fans' approach, but denied that the club should bear the responsibility: "The fans decided to do what they were their freedom, and we certainly did not support them in doing so, but the club is innocent. We really have no way to restrain and discipline what a group of fans did at 2 a.m...."

This is of course shirking responsibility. It is the negative practices of the Dortmund club in restraining the hatred of both sides that even fanned the flames that led to the two teams hating each other until now, so that such a thing happened.

When the stands of Westfall Stadium were hung with slogans of personal threats to Hope and insulting Hoffenheim players, the Dortmund club never persuaded or warned them. Instead, they let the fans do so.

But now is not the time to have a verbal battle, and the game between the two teams is already very close.

※※After lunch and having a short rest, the team rushed to Westphalon Stadium to prepare for the afternoon game.

Along the way, Dortmund fans were chasing their buses and making many provocative gestures to them, such as the middle finger. This is an internationally common gesture... And on the way to the stadium, there were still players yawning constantly, and they really didn't have a good rest.

"Ha--I yawn-I still want to sleep now, what should I do..." Ibisek said after yawning. This was the third yawn he had yawned in a minute, and tears were squeezed out.

"Damn... at such a critical moment, I encountered such a away game. Dortmund's bastards should not let me meet in Hoffenheim..."

"I think we should also take revenge on them, and let the fans make a big fuss when we play at home next season!"

Everyone was still angry about the treatment they received in the early morning. They were exhausted after squeezing on the train for an afternoon. If Chu Zhongtian hadn't told them stories in the car, their mood would have been worse. I thought that when I arrived in Dortmund, I could have a good rest, but I didn't expect that Dortmund fans would play such despicable tricks that made them sleep well.

If you don’t have a good rest, you will naturally lose any combat power.

Some people are also taking the time to rest, even if they can only sleep for fifteen minutes.

※※※ "This morning, Rangnick said that his team was harassed by a group of Dortmund fans in the early morning of this morning. The players did not sleep at all for two hours. This cast a shadow on Hoffenheim's away trip. Everyone knows that Dortmund is a strong team, and the two teams have deep grudges at the same time, so this game will never be easy and peaceful. So how can Hoffenheim not have a good rest yet, how should he deal with Dortmund away?"

The host on TV is analyzing the game that will be played later. In general, after this series of tossing, no one is optimistic that Hoffenheim can escape from Westphalia.

"I think it's very fortunate that they can get one point..." said the expert interviewed by the phone.

"This is good news for Magath's Schalke 04. Hoffenheim is biting very tightly at the moment, which puts a lot of pressure on Magath..."

"Hoffenheim took the train for an afternoon, and it is said that the train was quite crowded. If I had to predict this game, I could not give an accurate result, but I can give you an example for reference - just yesterday, Hannover 96, who was also on the train, challenged Bayern Munich away. The exhausted Hannover 96 was thrown by Bayern Munich seven goals. 7:0, Bayern Munich created a bloody massacre! Can Dortmund seize such an opportunity and launch a massacre? Of course, Hoffenheim's strength is more than one level higher than Hannover, but there is no logic in the matter on the football field..."

Hannover 96 became the first victim of Icelandic Volcano Ash. Their 0-7 loss to Bayern away also surprised many people. It seems that the power of Icelandic Volcano Ash is greater than everyone thinks... This also makes many people doubt the prospect of Hoffenheim's away challenge to Dortmund.

The bookmaker adjusted the odds before the game, and Hoffenheim was further unpopular.

Many people think that Hoffenheim is good enough to lose a few goals.

It is normal for everyone to think so, because even Hoffenheim's own people think this game is difficult to play. First of all, they took the train for several hours and were squeezed like canned sardines. They were so tired that they only got off to Dortmund. They didn't even do the venue to train, and were awakened at night. They couldn't fall asleep for nearly two hours. Many people are still sleepy. On the other hand, what about Dortmund? They were at home, waiting for work, rested well, the team had no injuries, and the lineup was neat.

With such a comparison between the two sides, naturally many people are not optimistic about Hoffenheim.

※※※As everything Borussia Dortmund fans did in the early morning, it also led to a small-scale conflict between the fans of both sides on the outside of the stadium. The two sides quickly fought together from quarrel to attacking them. First, Hoffenheim fans stood up for their team and spoke badly to Dortmund fans. Then Dortmund fans rushed up to beat Hoffenheim fans.

This time, the Dortmund policemen did not wait an hour and a half before they arrived at the scene. They quickly rushed into the battle group, waving batons and shields to disperse the crowds of trouble, and also arrested more than a dozen fans of both sides who participated in the trouble. However, judging from the color of the jerseys worn by the arrested fans, Hoffenheim fans accounted for the majority... The crowds in conflict were dispersed, but the dirty flags, jerseys, scarves, and lost shoes on the ground, as well as some "tools of crime" can still tell others what had happened here.

"I think the match between Dortmund and Hoffenheim is about to catch up with the Ruhr derby..." A reporter sighed after seeing this scene.

"It's really inexplicable. Why does the old-fashioned team Dortmund have such great hostility towards an emerging team? When Hoffenheim just appeared in the Bundesliga, there were indeed not many people who liked them, but now there are definitely many people who liked them than those who hate them. Only Dortmund fans are tough guys, and they still talk about Hope until now..."

"The genius knows how the hatred arose between them."

"It may not be necessary to hate a team..."

Other reporters also expressed their discomfort.

"... Some riots just happened, adding more gunpowder to this game. The game facing Hoffenheim will become more and more difficult. All signs show that it is impossible for Hoffenheim to win the game away!"

※※ When Hoffenheim's bus arrived outside Westphalia Stadium, the riot had already ended, and the team's bus did not pass by near the location of the departure. They had no idea that the fans of both sides had already fought fiercely outside the stadium in order to support their respective teams.

After getting off the car, the players entered the visiting team's locker room. Assistant coach Marichi shouted to them: "I know you are not very energetic now! But the more you do this, the harder you need to warm up! Otherwise, if you are injured on the court, our team doctor will not be able to save you no matter how good you are!"

"Warm up! Warm up!" Chu Zhongtian also slapped his teammates and shouted. Among all the players, he seemed to be the best in spirit.

Ibisevic yawned again and his answers became weak: "Okay~~~~~~~~"

After yawning, he quickly cursed: "Damn it!"

The players changed their training suits one after another, walked out of the locker room, and ran to the court to warm up.

Looking around, the stands were full of yellow and black oceans, and Dortmund fans kept making various singing and shouting. Some supported Dortmund, but more were insulting Hoffenheim.

As for the "Bitch Legion" and "Hope, why don't you die yet?" and "Welcome to the Westphalia Hell!" slogans are all over the place and can be seen everywhere. As long as you look up, a slogan that insults you may come into your eyes.

Chu Zhongtian shot a ball. In order to warm up Hildebrand, his shot was not powerful and the angle was not biased. The main purpose was to let Hildebrand find the feeling.

Unexpectedly, with such an ordinary shot, Hildebran actually saved the ball and lost his hand!

What's even more terrible is that he immediately made a second reaction and then went to save the ball, but he actually took off his hands... "Ah... Sorry, Chu..." Hildebran, who had lost his hands twice in a row, felt embarrassed and didn't know what to say for a while.

His mistake suddenly made the players who were warming up and the coaches of Hoffenheim suddenly nervous - can such a state really come out of Westphalia Stadium intact?
Chapter completed!
