The game against AC Milan is over, but the aftermath is not over yet.

Almost everyone did not expect that Hoffenheim was able to defeat AC Milan so easily at home. In this game, the old AC Milan had no power to fight back when facing the fast and impactful Hoffenheim. It also made many people feel pitiful when they saw it.

Why did the giant team that once won seven European championships have fallen to this point?

The entire Hoffenheim team has been widely sought after by the media.

Serna and Ibisevic, who scored goals, both appeared frequently in the media. Chu Zhongtian was the focus of the focus, the star among the stars.

After the game, the media throughout Europe highly praised Chu Zhongtian's performance in the game.

"Milan Sports Daily" even wrote an article saying that if AC Milan wants to revive, it must defeat Chu Zhongtian.

Obviously, Chu Zhongtian's performance also conquered the enemy's media.

As for how China praises him, there is no need to describe it in detail.

Anyway, after this game, everyone except the AC Milan fans in Italy and China were very happy.

Winning AC Milan makes Hoffenheim's group qualifying suddenly brighter. Even if they lose to AC Milan away, they still have hope of qualifying.

Moreover, the victory of this game made Hoffenheim fans look forward to Real Madrid's away challenge to Hoffenheim. Since we can beat AC Milan here, why can't we beat Real Madrid in the same place? We only lost one goal in their midwife!

※※After playing against AC Milan, Chu Zhongtian received a call from Wimbledon, London, England, telling him that Wimbledon Athletic Club had received his latest membership fee, worth 500,000 pounds, and the club thanked him for his generous donation.

In China, Yang Yang used Hoffenheim to defeat AC Milan's news craze and hyped up a movie invested by Chu Zhongtian to conduct a male lead audition in China. Sports and entertainment news were put together, which had an interplay effect. Now all of China know about this. This movie was shot by Chu Zhongtian, the only idol of Chinese football. The male lead was not students from the film academy that received professional training, nor were they famous big-name stars, but were elected from the Chinese national auditions by playing football.

Chu Zhongtian has two major events in China. In addition to movies, the construction of Sichuan Quanxing is also on track. Xu Xiaodi has published a job advertisement in influential newspapers across the country. The content of the advertisement is very simple. On a full page of close-up photos of the turf, there is a sentence: We are determined to be the most different football club in China, starting from the bottom. If you still have ideas about Chinese football and are an idealist, please call 028-××××××××.

These things belong to Chu Zhongtian’s football life. His identity is first and foremost a professional player, so playing football is his job.

On October 2, one day after China's National Day, Chu Zhongtian's Hoffenheim will go away to challenge the current league leader Mainz.

The two teams are only two points apart, Hoffenheim and Mainz are unbeaten, but Hoffenheim has a draw, Mainz wins all the way. Among the teams they have won, there are Bundesliga big brothers like Bayern Munich. In the last round of the league, Bayern Munich lost to Mainz 1:2 at home, which is their second defeat after losing to Hoffenheim, with two consecutive losses.

This game against Hoffenheim can be considered as the boss who wins.

Neither Hoffenheim nor Mainz will let go of their opponents easily.

This game is also considered by the German media to be the "most grassroots league top competition". Previous league top competitions have occurred between giant clubs, and Bayern Munich is always one of the protagonists. But this time, there is no Bayern Munich, no Schalke 04, no Dortmund, no Leverkusen, no Hamburg, no Stuttgart. They are two small teams that have been still hang out in low-level leagues in the previous few seasons.

"This kind of battle for the top spot may mean that our league order is changing. Under the role of Hoffenheim's example, those small teams that were not eye-catching have more ambitions and demands. I think this is a good thing. If a league is just one or two teams competing for power in turn, the league will only slowly lose competitiveness. Mainz is moving forward with Hoffenheim's old path. Their six consecutive victories in the opening stage of this season are too terrifying! Hoffenheim has set his sights on the Champions League. They lost 2:3 to Real Madrid in the Champions League and won AC Milan 2:1 at home, which has given us hope. The emerging power of German football is rising!"

The media have found meaning for the top spot in the Bundesliga.

In their mouths, Mainz's rise is a good thing, but for Hoffenheim, they will not want to use their failures to achieve Mainz. They obviously don't consider what Mainz means. They just want to win every game of their own, and unfortunately, their opponent in this game is Mainz.

The competition with Mainz at the top of the league has attracted the media's attention - because it has a meaning. However, the performance of the two teams is still very polite. Unlike the first time between Hoffenheim and Bayern Munich, the battle of verbal began two weeks ago.

Before this game, the two teams had no verbal battle. Rangnick praised Mainz's achievements now and expressed his hope that the team that performed well in the game would win.

Mainz's head coach Tuchel also expressed respect for Hoffenheim, saying that Hoffenheim's past is Mainz's future goal.

It seems that both teams are very polite, but the game itself is very intense and exciting.

In the ninety minutes of the game, both sides scored a total of six goals.

Just two minutes into the game, Mainz's forward Alaji scored the first record for the team, helping Mainz lead 1:0.

Hoffenheim is in a very serious crisis.

In the game against AC Milan, they scored a goal in Milan in the first two minutes, but AC Milan did not recover from the whole game.

Is it their turn to try the feeling of being stunned by their opponents at the beginning of this game?

If Hoffenheim raised his hand so easily, then they would not be the team that participated in the Champions League.

In the 31st minute, Obasi equalized the score for the team, and the person who assisted him was Chu Zhongtian.

The two sides tied 1:1 in the first half.

In the second half, the two teams still insisted on the offensive football style and fought against each other.

In the 47th minute, Mainz's forward Szale scored the second goal for Mainz, helping Mainz lead again.

Ranked first in the league, Mainz did not rely solely on luck. Their offensive football in the game was indeed a bit like Hoffenheim's shadow, and he was indomitable and extraordinary.

However, the opponents they face are not teams like Stuttgart and Wolfsburg, nor Bayern Munich who lacks Ribery and Robben. Instead, they just beat AC Milan and are in good shape. What's more, there is Chu Zhongtian who is in equally good shape in their team?

In the 59th minute, Chu Zhongtian's long shot was blocked by Mainz's defender Nowitzki and hit Mainz's goal. At the beginning, the TV broadcast counted the ball under Chu Zhongtian's account, and the subtitles were Chu Zhongtian's seven goals in seven games. Later, they modified this result and counted the goal as Nowitzki's own goal. Chu Zhongtian's goal was one less, and Nowitzki scored his first goal of the season... Although there was no goal, this did not affect Chu Zhongtian's outstanding performance.

In the 64th minute, Weiss made a substitute Quaresma. Three minutes later, Chu Zhongtian made a straight pass at the front of the penalty area, assisting Weiss to break into the penalty area and then scored.

Due to continuous injuries this season, coupled with Quaresma's joining, Weiss' chances of playing have been greatly reduced. However, being able to score a goal just as soon as he came on the court is also very helpful for him to compete for the main position.

With Weiss' goal, Hoffenheim led his opponent 3:2 away game for the first time.

Then in the 74th minute, Mainz goalkeeper Vettekolo dropped Van Nystruei who broke into the penalty area and prepared to shoot. He was sentenced to death. The referee not only gave Hoffenheim a penalty, but also sent off Mainz goalkeeper Vettekolo with a red card!

Before that, the person who passed the ball to Van Nestrui and caused his breakthrough was Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian's influence on Hoffenheim's offense is everywhere and has penetrated into every place.

Salihovic came up and took the penalty kick. Facing Mainz's substitute goalkeeper Martin, he easily pushed the ball into the lower right corner, the football rolled into the net, and Martin saved the wrong direction.

4:2! With fifteen minutes left in the game, Hoffenheim led two goals and basically secured the victory.

In the end, Hoffenheim also won the top spot with this score. After winning the game, Hoffenheim ranked first in the league standings with one point. Since losing first place in the fourth round of the league, he has returned to the top again.

※※※Returning to the league standings is a happy thing, but this is just the first step of the Long March. After all, the league has only started seven rounds, and even if you are always sitting in the first place of the league, nothing can be represented. The league results are based on where your team is in the last round, not where you are in the first seven rounds of the league.

On October 17, in the eighth round of the league, Hoffenheim returned to home to face Borussia Mönchengladbach.

In the last Champions League group stage, Hoffenheim's home court, the fans of the Rhine Neka Stadium, who did not listen to the songs and roars for a moment left a very deep impression on everyone. In such a home court, Hoffenheim is always very enthusiastic. They have defeated super giants like Manchester United, Inter Milan and AC Milan one after another, so Hoffenheim's players are always very content with their home atmosphere.

Rhine Neka Stadium has never been deserted since its completion and has always been full.

Hope doesn't have to worry about Hoffenheim's game at all. What he needs to worry about now is whether to launch a stadium expansion plan now. If this is true, the Rhine Neka Stadium may become the shortest stadium from construction to expansion in the world football world... Now every home game day, Rhine Neka's tickets are in short supply. Many fans are eager to buy tickets, and some even protested against the club because they can't buy tickets.

Expanding the stadium is always the future, but the current thing is the match between Hoffenheim and Mönchengladbach.

Borussia Mönchengladbach was previously ranked 15th and ranked in the middle and lower reaches. The teams of both sides have a huge strength gap. In addition, they are playing at home, so everyone is optimistic that Hoffenheim will defeat his opponents, maintain a winning streak, and continue to sit firmly in the league.

Considering that the opponent is not strong in this game, and there will be a Champions League group stage in the middle of next week, Rangnick chose to rotate.

If you can still accept the draw against AC Milan, then the two games against Aussel will never be allowed even if the draw is tied, and it is a real game that must be won. Aussel is the target of Hoffenheim's plan.

In the game against Mönchengladbach, Rangnick replaced Quaresma with Weiss who scored in the last round of the Bundesliga goal and replaced Salihovic with Hlosek. In the midfield, Chu Zhongtian and Gago appeared together, while Sana got a chance to rest. In the forwards, there were two players, Van Nistrui and Obasi, the centre-backs were Compare and Metzelder, and the full-backs were Baker and Pogattz.

Borussia Mönchengladbach sent the strongest lineup he could to face Hoffenheim.

Despite this, they lost the game without any suspense.

The game fell into the rhythm that Hoffenheim was used to from the first minute - fast!

In this fast football, Mönchengladbach could not react at all.

Hoffenheim's pass speed is completely in the Champions League level, and in the Bundesliga, which is generally ten to fifteen percentage points slower than the Champions League, they are unique, so it is no wonder that Borussia Mönchengladbach cannot keep up.

Although Hoffenheim did not score in the first half, they completely controlled the situation. Borussia Mönchengladbach had no power to fight back. They only had one shot in the whole first half and did not shoot within the goal frame.

Hoffenheim shot eleven times in the first half.

Just one minute into the second half, Hoffenheim scored a goal by Obasi, helping the team take the lead.

Then in the 62nd minute, Borussia Mönchengladbach's forward Juan Alango was sent off with a red card in the midfield.

Gago was also injured. After being carried down for some treatment, Rangnick did not let him continue to play on the game, but instead replaced him with Zukulini. The young Zukulini finally got a chance to play in the new season.

Borussia Mönchengladbach, who has one person missing, is even more difficult when facing Hoffenheim. Hoffenheim's football is the kind of football that even if you eleven people are on the court, and once you lose one person, you can immediately feel the disadvantage of the number of people. In addition, Hoffenheim, who has Chu Zhongtian, has always been teased by the media as "always one more person than your opponent", and the gap in the number of people is even greater.

The disadvantage of missing one person quickly showed up. Just five minutes after Alango was sent off, in the 67th minute, Chu Zhongtian organized an attack, Weiss made a cross, and Van Nistruy scored a goal in front of the goal and scored a goal. Hoffenheim led Borussia Mönchengladbach 2:0.

One person is missing, and the away game is still a game, and now it is two goals behind. The game has ended early for the players of Mönchengladbach, and then it has become garbage time.

But Hoffenheim's pursuit of goals did not stop there. They adhered to the tradition of how much they could enter and continued to launch wave after wave of offensives.

In the 82nd minute, Salihovic scored the team's third goal with a direct free kick, locking the score at 3:0! This free kick was caused by Chu Zhongtian being kicked to the ground by Mönchengladbach's defender Shahten when he broke through at the front of the penalty area. Shahten also got a red card because of this bad foul and became the second player in the game to be sent off.

The players of Mönchengladbach, who were missing two people, were completely unwilling to fight in the last ten minutes, and only hoped that the game would end early. Hoffenheim fans had already started celebrating the victory, while Mönchengladbach fans left the court early and showed up when the game was five minutes to end. There were only more than 25,000 Hoffenheim fans in the huge stands singing Hoffenheim's team songs to celebrate the victory.

Hoffenheim has a clear advantage in this game. They had as many as 27 shots throughout the game, while Mönchengladbach only had six feet, and Hoffenheim had a 69% possession rate, which had an absolute advantage.

Hoffenheim defeated Borussia Mönchengladbach and won four consecutive victories. After eight rounds of the league, they are also the only team that has not lost. They are currently ranked first in the league.

Their previous competitor, Mainz, seemed to be affected by the loss to Hoffenheim, and lost to Hamburg 0:1 in this round. The gap between the two teams was widened, and Hoffenheim's league first became more stable.

After the game against Borussia Mönchengladbach, Hoffenheim will move to the Champions League with the good mood of being the first in the league.

On October 19, Hoffenheim took the home court and welcomed their third Champions League group match opponent - the youth team Auxerre from Ligue 1.

This will also be the first time between Chu Zhongtian and his mentor Fernandez. Because Aussel went directly to Aussel after he came out of Metz, and took over the class of French legendary coach Juillu in this team and led the young Ausselle to the Champions League qualification, which did not disappoint Juillu.

In the first two rounds of the group stage, Ausserl lost to AC Milan and Real Madrid one after another. If they lose again in this game, they will basically lose hope of qualifying in the group.

But as a player trained by Fernandez, Chu Zhongtian will personally bury Aussel's hope of qualifying... It's not about whether it is warm or cruel, but the reunion of the two must have made them feel a lot.

When the master and apprentice reunite, a victory or defeat must be decided.
Chapter completed!
