"Sister, you call me at this hour, what's the matter?"
After a full day of training, Yang Cheng was about to go to bed when he suddenly received a call from his sister Yang Qing from Beijing.
"Xiaocheng, how are you doing in St. Pauli recently?"
"It's pretty good, and I can almost get used to it."
"Oh, by the way, Xiaocheng, have you offended anyone recently?"
Hearing his sister's question, Yang Cheng was a little stunned. He was training at the base or at home every day. Apart from his teammates and coaches, he had never had any dealings with anyone else. How could he offend anyone?
"No? Since I joined St. Pauli, I have been training every day, and I have never had any conflicts or quarrels with others. What's going on? Sister."
Yang Cheng thought to himself, who did I offend? Sench of the team? Or Macaw? I squeezed Ma Kao from the team's main striker to the bench. Is this considered an offense?
"Oh, it's good if you don't have one. That's it. Recently, many newspapers in China have reported unfriendly news about you. Some newspapers even said that your St. Pauli team was beaten by the L¨¹beck team in the derby. Falling flowers and flowing water, a 1:5 defeat, and you, Xie Hui and Fan Zhiyi, were named as the three frustrated brothers"
Recently, there have been less and less news about his younger brother in domestic reports, and more news is about Sun and Li who have studied abroad in the Premier League. Although some newspapers did not mention it explicitly, they all hinted at Yang Cheng's prospects in the Bundesliga St. Pauli team. Not optimistic.
When Yang Qing saw such news in China, she thought it was her younger brother who offended the reporters of those newspapers, and she was worried for him.
"That's it? Did you mean that I offended someone? Are you referring to this? Hey! I thought it was something, sister, you really don't have to worry about it. The news media, if they want to report this way, you can't blame them In the same way, people are not talking nonsense, as long as I am not affected and play my own football well, it will be fine."
Some time ago, domestic reporters or media friends kept contacting me, saying that they wanted to conduct an exclusive interview with him. Yang Cheng thought that the interview would delay his training, so he simply refused all of them. Unexpectedly, these reporters would still
For these newspaper reporters, he knows too well. If you perform well, you will praise it fiercely. Once you perform poorly, he will step on you in various ways. As a time traveler, Yang Cheng is all too familiar with these routines.
The best counterattack is to ignore them, as long as you perform better and better on the court, you will let them shut up.
So he was very open-minded, and after comforting his sister a few words, he hung up the phone
The time soon came to September.
On September 07, 2002, at 19 o'clock local time in Germany, the draw ceremony for the second round of the German Cup was held in Hamburg. There will be five matches between Bundesliga teams in the second round.
Unfortunately, Yang Cheng's St. Pauli club was drawn by the Bundesliga team Werder Bremen in the draw.
In the second round of the German Cup on Wednesday, November 6, they will face Werder Bremen at home.
Yang Cheng, who has always maintained self-discipline and hard work, seldom cares about other things except training every day. Recently, he learned that two things happened to the team.
The first thing is that after discussing with several potential head coach candidates, the upper management of the St. Pauli club turned their attention back to the current acting coach Philipkov.
Before training on Friday afternoon, St. Pauli held a press conference. It was officially announced at the meeting that the club's acting head coach Philipkowski officially signed a contract as head coach on Friday. The contract lasts for two years. As of 2004, Once the team is relegated, they will automatically resign.
This is good news for Yang Cheng.
Although Philip Koffs has limited ability, he is easy to talk and is an easy-to-communicate person. Not surprisingly, it is inevitable for the current acting head coach Philipkov to "become a regular".
However, for Philipkowski, this is both an opportunity and a big challenge.
? In this regard, Yang Cheng did not express any opinions. No matter who is the head coach, he will first be himself, train hard, and strive to score more goals on the field.
The second thing is that St. Pauli signed a new Nigerian black striker Adolf Ofodile at the last moment before the transfer window closed.
Ofodiler is a fast and physically fit striker who played for FC Walcher in the British League before his transfer.
Since Paczynski will not be able to play for two more games, and Brazilian striker Marcao was out of form, the next St. Pauli game at home, the team will appear on the front line.1. The confrontation in the Bundesliga Bundesliga dates back to 1986. Brunswick is currently ranked 11th in the league, while St. Pauli is second to last in the league. "
"After experiencing the humiliation of being defeated by L¨¹beck 1-5, I believe that St. Pauli will have a new start this week. However, after winning the German Cup, St. Pauli won all two consecutive warm-up matches. This game The game hopes that St. Pauli can return to the level it should be."
"Okay, just now we received the starting list of the two teams from the organizing committee."
"St. Pauli's lineup this time is different from the lineup in the last round of the league. The tactical formation has been changed from 4-5-1 to 3-5-2 midfield cross formation. This is an offensive and defensive formation. Formation."
"The coach Filikovski, who has just become a regular, will use the new players he introduced in this game. On the front line, China's Yang will compete with
Just joined the Nigerian striker Ofodile partner. Brazilian striker Macao will continue to sit on the bench due to consecutive poor performances. "
"The goalkeeper is Blatter replacing Henzler, who performed poorly in the last round."
"On the back line, Croatian central defender Zlatkokichu is arranged to partner with veteran Scheinhardt, while the 32-year-old captain Stanislavski is a substitute for every game."
"Young's former Frankfurt teammate Rasiewski continues to serve as the right back, and the left back is still Traub."
"In the midfield, the midfielder Iserman was sent off by a red card in the last league game and suspended. Filikovski asked Collinger to play as a midfielder. Florich switched to a central midfielder. The 19-year-old Mai Yeh switched from striker to right midfielder and left midfielder to Sager."
"St. Pauli's lineup has changed a bit today. It is said that in order to win the game with all its strength, St. Pauli not only changed the head coach, but also introduced several midfield players. Moreover, the coach has focused on training several times before the game. The lineup has not been very fixed, and the midfielders have been replaced extensively."
"That's right. In addition, according to the statistics of the stadium organizing committee, the number of spectators is 20,269. After being next to a Bundesliga team like Hamburg and losing three games in a row, there is still such a crowd on Wednesday, which is not a holiday." The ability to mobilize the audience, the centripetal force of St. Pauli fans can be seen."
"Okay, audiences, the game is about to start, and now the players from both sides are ready to play. ?
