Chapter 196 Defending the league title
That night, Jessica had dinner with Real Madrid's Florentino in a coffee shop in Berlin. The content was similar. In March this year, Real Madrid's former chairman Roman Calderon was dismissed early due to the team's record, and Vicente Boluda temporarily took over as the club's chairman. Florentino, who once created the Real Madrid Galaxy battleship myth, was the most popular person to serve as the new Real Madrid president, and his campaign strategy was still the "bringing superstars to the Bernabeu" he proposed in 2000. Ronaldo, Kaka, and of course Qin Tian were all his favorites.
However, on the second day after the two sides met, Spain's "Maca" reported this explosive news, "The core of the Bundesliga leader Qin Tian secretly met with the prospective chairman of Real Madrid." The article was not very long, but it was very eye-catching. It was a photo of Jessica and Florentino clinking cups. The two seemed to have a happy conversation.[]
Immediately, this photo and this report triggered mainstream media in Germany, Spain and even Europe. For a time, the news that Qin Tian was about to leave Aotu spread throughout the world, and the media with great powers, like the KGB, discovered more so-called insider news.
Clubs that are interested in Qin Tian are no longer limited to Real Madrid. Inter Milan, AC Milan, Barcelona, Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and other clubs are all on the list. Of course, it is not without reporters mentioning Chelsea, but most experts and media workers are not optimistic that Russians can get Qin Tian, because judging from Abraham's investment in the player transfer market in recent years, Chelsea's investment has become more rational in recent years.
Such news is undoubtedly a huge blow to Schalke 04 fans. Although most fans are prepared in their hearts, they are always a little bumpy in their hearts. There are people who wish Qin Tian, and naturally there will be no fewer malicious attacks. Many radical fans expressed their dissatisfaction with Qin Tian on the club's official website, and even praised the title of "traitor". Fortunately, such a voice has appeared and has been besieged by Qin Tian's loyal fans. After all, Qin Tian has done what he can do in Schalke 04, and people cannot be too greedy.
Before Schalke arrived at Hertha Berlin at the hotel in Hertha, Berlin on May 15, a large number of reporters gathered, wanting to confirm this from Qin Tian's mouth. Unfortunately, before the team's key game, Qin Tian's main intention was in the game, and nothing else was discussed. Therefore, before the team's bus was about to arrive at the hotel, Qin Tian got off the bus in advance and entered through the back door of the hotel. "It's so fucking not easy to be a player." Qin Tian thought so.
Sitting in the guest room, Qin Tian controlled the TV remotely, but he didn't even put his mind on the TV, and he didn't know what he wanted to do. Regarding the incident reported by the Spanish reporter, Qin Tian and Jessica's joint reaction was that he was played with by the damn Florentino. The damn reporter must have arranged it first, and wanted to "force" Qin Tian in another way. Unfortunately, Florentino was smart this time. Qin Tian is not a person who likes to be forced.
On May 16, in the 33rd round of the 2008-09 Bundesliga, Schalke 04 was away from Hertha Berlin, Bayern challenged Hoffenheim away, and Bremen played against Karlsruhe at home. Because the situation in the Bundesliga has become tense now, the German Football Association is also paying special attention to these three games. At the same time, the referees are the first-class referees to choose.
The atmosphere at the Olympic Stadium is quite warm. For Hertha Berlin, the team has no threat of relegation this season and there is no possibility of going to Europe to compete. It is undoubtedly a very exciting thing to block last year's defending champion. What's more, an official from Bayern called in person yesterday and invited Hertha Berlin to discuss the deepening of cooperation between the two sides after the game.
"Deepening cooperation"? Bullshit! Hertha Berlin head coach Favor spitted disdainfully, just thinking that I can kill Schalke 04? Even if I can't, I must tie the opponent. Although I feel disdainful, Favor is still willing to make this deal. After all, no matter from any aspect of the blocking, he will not suffer any loss. Doesn't sports emphasize "fair competition"? It's just in line with the spirit of sports that he has done his best.
Under the deliberate instigation of Coach Fafoll, the whole team was full of fighting spirit, defeating and even drawing the defending champion, as well as the generous bonus after the game, well, it was worth fighting.
In this game, Sloka coach was not careless, and all the main players appeared. When Qin Tian wearer captain's armband came out of the player channel, more than 2,000 Schalke 04 fans who were expeditioning with the team burst into cheers, which also made Qin Tian feel very comfortable. Only the fans can really make the players enjoy the joy of football.
Qin Tian, who was trapped in a transfer storm, performed quite actively from the beginning of the game. He frequently raised his hand to signal his teammates to request him, and he would dribble the ball and pass the ball or shoot directly. In less than 8 minutes of the game, Qin Tian had completed two shots, and one kick was just slightly off. This is completely different from Qin Tian's performance some time ago. If Qin Tian said that Qin Tian was handsome, he would undoubtedly become a fierce general today!
"Qin seems a little impatient." Marisca next to Sloanka was a little worried.
"Haha, this is normal, there is nothing to worry about. The newspapers and TV reports have been reported in succession these days. He is not a person without desires, so it would be strange if he is not affected. But this is good for his growth, and it is just a small thing for him." Sloka seemed very calm.
Neuer confiscated the opponent's forward's shot and quickly threw the ball with his hand to launch an attack. Pique opened the ball forward with his big foot. Rakitic stopped the ball in his chest and was about to lead him forward. From the corner of his eyes, Qin Tian was signaling. After Rakitic splashed the ball lightly, he quickly transferred the ball.
After passing the ball, Rakitic also ran forward, ready to receive Qin Tian's return pass at any time.
After Qin Tian received the pass, Friedrich, a Berlin player behind him, had already pressed up, and he used his little black hand to harass Qin Tian in a place that the referee could not see, so that he would not turn around easily. Qin Tian stepped on the ball with his left foot, and his body was very tightly protected. Suddenly, a fake move turned left, Friedrich behind him loosened his arm, stretched out his right foot to break the ball, Qin Tian had already pulled the ball back, rubbed his outer instep to Rakitic, and turned around and ran away.
Rakitic did not wait for Cicero to defend himself to be in place, and quickly distributed it to Marin on the wing. After receiving the ball, Marin pushed hard towards the front of the penalty area. Qin Tian, who had gotten away from Friedrich's defense, arrived almost. Hertha Berlin players in the penalty area were restrained by Kuranyi and Falfan in front.
Only Simunic bumped towards Qin Tian, wanting his strong body to knock Qin Tian over and intercept the ball. But obviously Qin Tian is not that easy to mess with today. The moment the opponent hit him, he made a dexterous move and stabbed the ball forward gently. Qin Tian quickly blocked Simunic in front, after catching up with the ball, and then took a shot.
The two central defenders at Hertha Berlin were shocked and were so panicked that they even forgot that Kuranyi and Falfan, who should have been defending carefully, were so panicked that they had also forgotten that they had another goalkeeper ready to save. Qin Tian saw that he had attracted most of the opponent's defensive power and passed the ball directly into it, behind Stein.
Falfan didn't even adjust his movements while booing the whole game, and easily intercepted the ball. At this moment, Shahed, who was originally defending Falfan, rushed over, and goalkeeper Drogney quickly moved to Falfan to block the opponent's shooting angle. Another central defender from Hertha Berlin, thought Falfan would pass the ball to Kuranyi on the other side, quickly returned to defend, and everyone ignored the most dangerous person who passed the ball before.
Qin Tian!
So the tragedy naturally happened. When goalkeeper Drogney thought about adjusting back, Qin Tian had already made a move. The rapid shot could only allow goalkeeper Drogney to watch the ball fly into the goal and pluck the net. Frederi, who rushed back to defend Qin Tian, rushed to Qin Tian, and then arrived next to Qin Tian.
For a player like Qin Tian, if you want to be on guard, you must keep your steps away, rather than giving him dozens of seconds of leisure time.
Such a goal was not a big deal in Qin Tian's career, but Qin Tian was very excited. He ran all the way and hugged Falfan, who was passing the ball, and even kissed the team logo on the jersey with a look while being dragged by his teammates.
In the end, with the goal of Qin Tian and Kulanyi, Schalke 04 lived up to expectations and easily won the opponent away, and won the Bundesliga championship this season with a 4-point advantage. However, because it was away, the award ceremony was very simple, but Chairman Reiberg had decided to wait until the explanation of the game with Hoffenheim on May 23 and hold a new celebration ceremony.
After the game, various German media also praised Qin Tian's performance. 1 point, 1 point, 1 point, and the media that scored each gave Qin Tian the highest score unanimously.
The victory of the game also made Qin Tian feel irritable!
However, Qin Tian was a little happy early. Some people in this world just don’t want you to be safe. As the saying goes, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop. When Schalke 04 ended the game, Chief Mansour, the owner of another team in Manchester City in England, made a bold statement in an interview with reporters, "After the end of this season, the current team coach Hughes will leave, and former Inter Milan head coach Mancini will come to Manchester."
Mansour then said with a smile, "Coach Mancini is an excellent coach. Our communication with him went very smoothly, and we also agreed to Coach Mancini's first player transfer request, that is Qin Tian of Schalke 04! Yes, that excellent guy, we don't have a chance? no! Everything is possible."
I have to say that Mansour's words once again pushed Qin Tian to the forefront. People and institutions around the world who were related to football turned their attention to Germany, Gelsenkirchen, and Schalke 04.
Chapter completed!
