Chapter 39 The Bundesliga Championship Decisive Battle(1/2)
Wolfsburg won a ticket to the Europa League final, and the happiest people are the city of Wolfsburg and the local residents.
Almost all citizens are Wolfsburg fans, and the Wolfsburg football team is their eternal pride.
The game is over, but the fans gathered inside and outside the stadium are still unwilling to leave!
They shouted the name of each player loudly, and the ones who shouted the most were of course Zhao Jinge and De Bruyne.
In this small town with only 120,000 residents, the 50,000 fans present around the stadium are Wolfsburg's strongest backing.
The Wolfsburg players who returned to the locker room listened to the sound that echoed inside and outside the stadium. Everyone felt a touching emotion taking root in their hearts.
Maybe they will say goodbye this summer, and maybe in a few years when the team's performance is not ideal, they will also boo them.
But at this moment, the Wolfsburg players only feel that the hearts of themselves and the fans are tightly connected in the shouts, regardless of each other!
At the press conference after the game, a reporter asked Zhao Jinge this question:
"In today's fan street interview, more than half of the fans selected you as their favorite player this year. What do you want to say to these fans?"
Zhao Jinge was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that he was so popular with the fans now.
After a while, I thought about everything I had spent in Wolfsburg over the years.
Zhao Jinge said affectionately:
"I want to say to all the fans who love me that I have only played for this great Wolfsburg first team for just half a season.
I really don’t know what I did to make you treat me so warmly!
I have only one idea now, and that is to make you the happiest fans in Germany this summer!"
Back in the hotel, Zhao Jinge, who was affected by this, lay on the bed and thought about his future path again.
Leaving Wolfsburg?
Go to the Premier League or La Liga?
Join Manchester City with Mr. Ding?
Or should Mendes help him contact other teams?
Or are you staying at Wolfsburg for a year?
Thoughts kept flashing through Zhao Jinge's mind.
Zhao Jinge was born, raised and played football in Wolfsburg. If you say he has no feelings for this team, you are definitely telling a lie.
He thought again of those fans who dyed the entire stadium green, and how could he not feel reluctant to leave.
No matter where he goes in the future, the only thing that has left a mark in the deepest part of his memory is this one that has accompanied him from an ignorant child to the shining youth of Wolfsburg.
Perhaps Wolfsburg will always play the role of a home in his playing career.
With a little sadness, Zhao Jinge slowly fell into sleep.
The time has come to May 16, and Dortmund will be a guest at the Volkswagen Arena.
For this game, Wolfsburg's coaching staff came up with two tactics.
One tactic is to be conservative and fight for a draw, and then try your best to win the championship when facing Cologne in the last round.
Some coaches think that since they only need to win one more game, why not pick the weak one?
Another tactic is to go all out and end the suspense of the Bundesliga championship in this round.
Coaches who support this tactic believe that if they don’t even have the courage to defeat Dortmund, how can they win three championships?
In the end, head coach Dieter Heijing made the final decision and chose the second tactic to face the powerful enemy.
In Dieter Heijing's view, the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road. If you still want to retain your strength at this time, wait for the final game to defeat Cologne to decide the outcome.
That is definitely seeking death, and you might end up playing with fire and burning yourself.
They are the team that wants to overthrow Bayern Munich, the big devil of the Bundesliga, and ascend to the Bundesliga throne!
How could we lose the courage to defeat Dortmund at home!
May 16th is the day when the Bundesliga champion is announced!
When Wolfsburg's bus arrived outside the Volkswagen Stadium amid the welcome of countless fans.
There is already a sea of green outside the car. This amount is definitely not what the stadium can accommodate.
At this time, the fans who had not bought tickets gathered outside the stadium and looked eagerly at the approaching bus.
They look forward to the team's final victory at home tonight, so that they can celebrate this hard-won championship at the place closest to the team!
After the pre-match warm-up, Wolfsburg entered the final preparation stage before the game.
Dieter Hecking did not give an impassioned speech in the locker room.
He believes that he doesn't need to say anything more. Nothing can make the players' blood boil more excited than a championship that is so close at hand!
The team's core players Zhao Jinge and De Bruyne have never lacked the desire to win or lose the game.
It was their tireless pursuit of victory that enabled Wolfsburg to win many difficult games.
They are Wolfsburg's biggest guarantee for their pursuit of victory!
After this long journey, both of them showed the natural and strong temperament from the inside out.
They are not only the guardians of Wolfsburg, but also a nightmare for other teams!
Wolfsburg's last home game of the 2014-2015 season is about to begin.
Players from Wolfsburg and Dortmund lined up in the tunnel.
Every Wolfsburg player will be given a big hug by Wolfsburg, the team's mascot, after walking out of the tunnel.
After all the players came on the stage, the team mascot Wolfe Wolfe bowed in worship to the Wolfsburg players.
The scene was filled with deafening cheers, and no fan could remain calm in such a hot environment.
All the home team fans in the stands shouted the names of every player who played, and vigorously waved the flags and scarves in their hands!
The cameras in the stadium faithfully recorded this rare grand occasion in the club's history, which can be compared with the celebration of the team's championship in previous years!
For this focus battle, the TV station also invited Matthäus and Ballack to provide commentary.
First, Ballack introduced the participants from both sides.
"Good evening to all fans who follow the Bundesliga! Today we follow the camera to the Volkswagen Arena.
The 33rd round of the Bundesliga will be a focus battle here, and it is also a game that is likely to determine the championship.
Wolfsburg, the current leader in the standings, faces Borussia Dortmund, who is in improved form.
Wolfsburg's lineup, as expected, is still the 4321 formation:
Goalkeeper: Benaglio.

Double midfielder: Gustavo, Arnold.
Left and right midfielders: Perisic, Zhao Jinge.

Now the game begins!"
Following the referee's whistle, Wolfsburg took the lead to kick off amid the roar of cheers at the Volkswagen Stadium.
Dortmund's front three quickly crossed the half-court and started a high-position press.
Klopp has not forgotten the feeling of losing at home in the Christmas game in the first half of the season.
Under his tactical arrangement, the well-organized Dortmund showed amazing combat effectiveness and tactical execution.
It is bound to give Wolfsburg a heavy blow at their most glorious moment!
Want to win the championship at home with Dortmund?!
If you don’t have absolute strength, you’re just dreaming!
Facing Dortmund's orderly high-pressure press, the Wolfsburg midfielder, led by De Bruyne, relied on his excellent conduction ability.
