007 Warm up quickly
Chen Qing integrated into the first team very smoothly.
You should know that in the Bundesliga, which is known for its rational management, Wolfsburg is a famous dog owner, and the opposite is true for being stupid.
In such a team that likes to buy, it is no wonder that everyone has an unfamiliar face on the team.
What's more, Magath just took office this season.
Magath, who has two major positions: club manager and head coach, has bought or rented a large number of players this season.
In the summer and winter two transfer windows, Wolfsburg completed a "shush" that would take several years for other teams to achieve.
Therefore, Chen Qing is just the eighteenth new face that the team has appeared this season.
The only difference is that Chen Qing was promoted through youth training.
For fans, the home team's youth training players are like their own children. Needless to say, they can just blow hard; even if they perform poorly, fans will show more of a sense of regret, but others can't say that.
Therefore, unless there is a direct conflict of interest, few professional players will be in conflict with the team's youth training players.
What's more, Magath's appreciation of Chinese boys can even be seen by the blind.
On the afternoon of the first day when Chen Qing came to the team to report, Magath smiled and presented a customized training suit for Chinese boys and a handwritten training plan.
Chen Qing glanced at it.
Solid balls, plateau long-distance running, beach long-distance running, cross-country running, and three practices in one day... The care from this shop made Chen Qing's legs weak.
OK, except for being a little tired.
Chen Qingguo is pretty good, after all, it was the head coach himself.
In the German Cup semi-finals on March 20, Magath actually submitted Chen Qing's name to the list of appearances.
Of course, it is definitely not the starter. Magath didn't even intend to let Chen Qing play and bring the Chinese boys with him, just wanting him to feel the atmosphere of the professional league in advance.
Because the semi-finals of the German Cup were not originally in Magath's plan.
Looking at Magath's career, whether it is a player or a coach, he likes to make decisions.
Volkswagen has invested 20 million euros this season, giving Magath all the power he wants, obviously not to make the team ranked 15th in the Bundesliga in a row like the previous two seasons and be a relegation student.
Magath gave management only one military order, to play the league well, to fight for five and three.
The top three in the Bundesliga can participate in the Champions League next year. The fourth and fifth places can play in the League Cup.
Isn't the reason why Volkswagen acquired the equity of Wolfsburg and invested money continuously to make the team a wealthy family and then sell Volkswagen Polo to the whole world with its reputation?!
Magath spent half a season running-in with the team and creating a solid back.
This kind of running-in also comes at a price.
At the end of the first half of the season, Wolfsburg was only 5 points ahead of the relegation zone and ranked 11th in the Bundesliga. It was considered that investment was not proportional to the gains.
But in the second half of the season, after seven rounds of the league, Wolfsburg, Frankfurt and Karlsruhe also scored 36 points, only 4 points away from Schalke 04, the fifth place in the league.
Against this background, there are still ten rounds of the league, and Magath is not willing to focus on the cup competition anyway.
Especially when the opponent in the semi-finals is still Bayern Munich.
Magath's last job was Bayern coach. Although he was unhappy when he left, he could even be said to be embarrassed, Magath knew that Bayern was not an easy opponent to deal with. Now at Wolf Castle, it was not time to get to the point of bayonet with Bayern.
Magath arranged the rotation lineup very carefully.
Marcelinho, Grafit, Dzeko, and Wolfburg's unstoppable frontcourt tridents were all sitting on the bench, and the team captain Josue was sitting with them.
These four people almost supported half of the Wolf Castle, and could not tolerate any mistakes.
In this game, Magath arranged a diamond midfielder of 4-4-2.
The goalkeeper is Diego Benario who joined the team during the winter break. Since joining the team, the Swiss have pressed the original starting goalkeeper Simon Yanqi firmly on the bench.
Wolvesburg's back line is from left to right, namely Marcel Schefel, Alexander Madren, Ricardo Costa and Sasha Ritter. This defense line is built by Magath the most effort. Except for Madren who joined last season, the other three people came to the team only at the beginning of this season.
The midfielder is Pablo Thiam. The Guinea is 34 years old. After playing this season, he plans to retire.
Standing in front of Guinea people are Makoto Hasegawa and Christian Gentner.
Gentner is 22 years old and is a very awesome midfielder.
At the age of 18, Gentner was given a chance to debut in Stuttgart's first team, and as the center of the German youth team's midfield, he participated in the 2005 World Youth Championship.
If this continues step by step, Gentner will most likely become Stuttgart's midfield core and become an important member of the German national team.
It was just that Sammy Khdira's emergence broke all this. Gentner couldn't even compete for Stuttgart's main position.
Last summer, Gentner came to Wolfsburg on loan and took the main position with a stable performance. Everything was not too bad.
The front midfielder is Ashkan Dejaga. He has dual nationalities of Iran and Germany, and the tattoo on the neck seems to be telling others that he is not easy to mess with.
The forwards are young men Daniel Liuboya with white and black hairstyles, and American forward Kamani Hill.
Hill also joined the team last season, playing 9 times for the team and scoring 0 goals. He is already the top five striker in Wolfburg.
It seems that "Vish Express" is not groundless. Apart from fighting the main force, Magath really has no forward to use it.
In contrast, Bayern stood in front of the goal, Oliver Kahn, the only goalkeeper in the World Cup Golden Ball, and the defenders were Philip Ram, Lucio, Martin Demikelis, Marcel Jansen, and the midfielder was Hamid Altentop, Mark Van Bomel, Ze Roberto, Frank Ribery, and Luca Tony and Miroslav Kloze in the forward positions.
It's really the stars shining.
Bayern, who outputs the entire main lineup, is obviously determined to win the German Cup.
Especially against Magath's team.
Many Bayern fans, even some Bayern team management, believe that if it weren't for the poor performance of Magath in the first half of last season, the team might not have no Champions League this season.
In just the first half, Bayern scored two goals.
In the second half, Bayern's offensive was still very strong, but Wolfburg was lucky, and Luca Tony hit several goal posts.
In the stands, there were already scattered Wolf Castle fans leaving the court early.
However, Magath sat firmly on the Diaoyutai without any movement.
If it weren't for Kamani Hill, he was injured.
In the 74th minute of the game, Kamani Hill did a trick while breaking through, accidentally stepped on the ball and fell.
"Americans really can't do anything!" Magath complained.
It was not until the team doctor Andreas Herbst waved to greet the stretcher that Magath realized Kamani Hill was seriously injured.
"Scheie!" Ma Dashuai swears. He turned to look at Grafitte, then looked at Dzeko, then looked at the score of 2:0 on the LED screen on the main stand, and finally pushed his glasses.
Chapter completed!
