I am Crazy About Money in Football

The Sinsheim Rhein-Neckar Arena is considered a relatively small arena in the Bundesliga, and can only accommodate about 30,000 fans.

However, Hoffenheim's nickname is Huo Village, because Hoffenheim is originally a village in Sinsheim, not to mention Hoffenheim, even Sinsheim cannot be found on the German map.

There are only about 3,000 residents in Hoffenheim Village. Even with fans from surrounding villages and towns, it would be good to fill up 30,000 of them. What's the use of more?

For this reason, Hoffenheim has often been ridiculed by other teams as country bumpkins.

However, in today's game, Hoffenheim played very tough at home, intending to suppress Schalke 04 from the very beginning.

Ye Feng remembered that in the first half of last season, Hoffenheim, who had just entered the Bundesliga, was still leading the standings. If the number one center Ibisevic was reimbursed for the season due to injury, perhaps they might really be able to replicate the miracle of Kaiserslautern.

However, everyone has gradually adapted to this "stunned youth" style of play, Hoffenheim is not so mysterious, and can only rely on strength to break through in the Bundesliga.

Today, the Bosnia and Herzegovina double stars in Hoffenheim are very eye-catching, especially Salihovic, who is extremely active in the midfield.

In the absence of Jones, Ye Feng had to take on more defensive responsibilities. While marking the opponent's core players, he also had to keep sweeping in the midfield to reduce the pressure on Matip.

What annoyed Ye Feng the most was that he didn't dare to foul.

Salihovic is a master of free kicks, and the rate of direct free kicks is very high. Once he is given too many direct free kicks, Neuer will be troubled.

Therefore, Ye Feng could only use iron walls to deal with Salihovic. Even at Hoffenheim's home court, he did not dare to keep a close eye on Salihovic for fear that the referee would blow the home whistle.

In this way, although Salihovic can't get past Ye Feng head-on, because there is room for passing the ball, he uses more passing methods to lead the offense.

Engelal has rich experience. Although he still wants to go wild from time to time, he can still share Ye Feng's great pressure.

But Matip on the right, because of his lack of experience in the Bundesliga, looked more embarrassed.

In the 9th minute, Salihovic passed the ball to Eduardo's feet. Under Matip's close defense, Eduardo flexibly stopped and passed, directly breaking through Matip's defense.

Matip is on top!

Eduardo was pulled back to the ground.

Although it prevented Eduardo's breakthrough, it gave Hoffenheim a free kick in a pretty good position.

In an instant, Ye Feng had one head and two big ones. He defended Salihovic so hard and was careful not to foul. Matip didn't seem to realize this at all, and he didn't have any scruples when he fouled.

This will not work!

Just about to speak, but stopped immediately.

Because Ye Feng remembered his first professional game.

That was still in the Bundesliga, and it was in that game that I got the care of the system father.

But that's not the point. The point is that in that game, because of his defensive mistakes, Altintop, who had recovered from the first team to the second team, yelled at him in a bad mood.

Regardless of whether it is his fault or not, regardless of whether Altintop is a big player in the first team or not, since they are fighting side by side on the same field, they are teammates.

At least Ye Feng couldn't accept such an attitude towards his teammates.

So, in other words, if you scold Matip with a bad attitude, what is the difference between yourself and Altintop?

After thinking about it, Ye Feng pulled Matip, who didn't seem to realize what he had done, to line up the wall. While standing, he turned his head to Matip and said: "I see a little tension in you, but this It's normal, after all, everyone will play for the first time, and excitement is inevitable!"

"But nervousness will affect your dedication to the game, so you have to learn to restrain yourself."

"Also, this guy Salihovic has a great free kick, in the threat area,

Try not to foul easily as much as possible. If he seizes the opportunity, the situation will not be very favorable. "

"Come on, boy, I like you!"

Saying that, Ye Feng didn't forget to pat Matip on the shoulder.

It's just that because Matip is a bit tall, Ye Feng's posture of patting his shoulder is very stiff.

Matip stared blankly at Ye Feng, and was so moved that he couldn't speak for a moment.

He is an unknown pawn from the second team, while Ye Feng has already made a name for himself in the Bundesliga. Even though they are about the same age, Ye Feng is only one year older than Matip, but in fact the status of the two is worlds apart.

But now, in the eyes of Matip, Ye Feng, the big star who is aloof, is so calm and patient to comfort himself, how could he not be flattered?

"Well, I will definitely work hard!"

Matip nodded heavily, and assured him strongly.

Ye Feng may not know how deeply his words will have an impact on a young player, but now, as long as Matip does not cause trouble.

Schalke 04 has lined up the human wall. At this time, Schalke 04's advantages are revealed. It is much taller, and the human wall is too high.

Englar, Matip, Westerman, and Kuranyi, the four of them blocked Salihovic's sight.

Where has Salihovic seen such an exaggerated human wall?

For a while, I was a little dazed.

However, Ye Feng was more confused than Salihovic at this time.

There is no other reason. He originally planned to join the human wall but was pushed out by Englar in disgust.

"You are too short, affecting the quality of the human wall!" Englar said to Ye Feng with great heart.

Ye Feng was about to cry, how could I, a 1.85 meter strong man, be rejected?

Where does this make him reason?

Besides, if the Barcelona midfielder knew about this, how embarrassing would they be?

Ye Feng couldn't help thinking of Barcelona's human wall. Messi is 1.69 meters, Xavi is 1.7 meters, and Iniesta is 1.71 meters. The three stand together, just like a wifi signal.

Such a human wall, it seems meaningless whether it is lined up or not, right?

How is it like in Schalke 04, less than 1.9 meters, not even qualified to line up the wall!

Salihovic had no choice but to bite the bullet and make a free throw. A curved ball actually bypassed the wall and headed for Schalke 04's goal in a large arc.

Fortunately, Neuer was well-prepared, leaped forward, and denied Salihovic's free kick.

Huo Cun fans in the stands couldn't help screaming in regret. If Hoffenheim can take the lead at the start, the game will be very easy to control!

At this time, Matip was also in a cold sweat!

He has seen the power of Salihovic's free kick!

He also realized how reckless his actions were. If Schalke 04 really lost the ball because of this, wouldn't he become the team's sinner?

He doesn't want his Bundesliga career debut to be his most unbearable memory!

Thinking of this, Matip looked at Ye Feng with gratitude again!
