At the headquarters of the pharmaceutical factory, the coaching team was having a routine meeting.
After the winter break, Leverkusen's form was a little unstable.
In the last three rounds, they had suffered three consecutive defeats.
Losing to Freiburg 2:3, losing to Bremen 0:1, losing to Borough Moen 1:2.
Seeing that they would fall out of the top four if they lost again, the coaching staff of Leverkusen hurriedly held an emergency meeting.
"It's also a tough battle against Schalke after the cup tournament. Do we really have to go all out against the cup tournament?”
"It's just a weak German B team. Just send a substitute to play.”
"No, we're already in the top 8. If we win, we'll be in the top 4. If we work harder, we might be able to win.”
"We have to win this match with all our strength and raise our morale before attacking Sark!”
"Our physical fitness is not a problem.”
"Alright, stop arguing."
Leverkusen's manager, Hyypia, raised his hand to stop the coaching staff's discussion.
"We've already lost three times in a row. The most important thing now is to raise morale. Even if they were to play against a Bundesliga team, they had to go all out to defeat their opponents.”
"This victory is very important. I've already confirmed that all the main forces will participate. Who agrees and who disagrees?"
Seeing that the coaching staff agreed, Hyypia nodded in satisfaction.
In his eyes, the Berlin Union seemed to be synonymous with soft persimmons.
With Leverkusen's strength, he could crush it with a light pinch.
The main lineup was overturned?
It was impossible.
……
There was still a week before the German Cup quarter-finals against Leverkusen.
The entire Berlin United team could feel the tense and excited atmosphere.
Not only Sullo, but the others were also looking forward to facing a powerful enemy.
If they beat Leverkusen, they would probably be able to brag for a year.
What if…they could still beat Bayern in the future?
The training attitude of the players was obviously more serious than before. Even the lazy Brazilian Silvio began to practice hard.
The coaching staff also began to lay out strict tactics against Leverkusen.
This season, in the Bundesliga and the early stages of the Champions League, Leverkusen's combat effectiveness was no weaker than Bayern's.
The manager, Sami Hyypia, was also praised by the fans as "Haisheng."
The pharmaceutical factory had already become the third strongest team in the Bundesliga.
For this reason, Neuhaus led the coaching staff to carefully analyze Leverkusen's tactical arrangements.
Including the recent state of the players, a tight defensive arrangement was made for each player.
For example, Leverkusen's top striker, Kiessling, and Neuhaus had almost turned over his videos.
On the other hand, Leverkusen's coaching team,
They were also busy researching the week before the game.
The target of their research was their next opponent in the league, Schalke 04!
That's right, it's just a broken German Second Division team. What's there to study?
Wasn't it just that there was a Chinese striker who was very awesome?
What kind of storm could be stirred up by sending someone to keep an eye on him?
Even though the Bundesliga could not defend, it did not mean that the Bundesliga could not defend.
This will let you see what kind of gap there is between Bundesliga's third place and Bundesliga's second!
At least, that was what the manager, Hyypia, thought.
In the week of preparation for the Cup, everyone's imaginary opponent was Schalke 04.
Soon, the day of the competition arrived!
……
The night before he left for Leverkusen,
Sullo and Joseph simply hugged each other and didn't do anything else.
He tried his best not to think about the moldy mold that lay here that day, lest he reveal a flaw.
"Do you want to go to Leverkusen with me? After the away game, I'll take a look around."
Joseph gently kissed Sullo and looked at him apologetically.
"As you know, I've been busy with Milan's autumn and winter fashion week recently. I'll be going to Milan at the end of the month. I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you.”
"Well, it's only right that you're busy with your career. We're still young now. We have plenty of time to enjoy ourselves in the future.”
"Yes! Then we…"
"Good idea."
It couldn't be helped. Sullo was also a young man. No matter how tired he was now, there were still two days before the game. He recovered very quickly.
The next day, Joseph sent him to the training base as usual. The bus for the away game was already parked at the door.
His teammates had already seen the golden couple and were already used to it.
After Sullo got on the bus, everyone was present. The bus slowly started, preparing to drive to Leverkusen, which was more than 500 kilometers away.
At the beginning, the team was still very happy. The team song of the Steel League sounded in the car, and everyone was singing loudly.
An hour later, everyone fell asleep. The five-hour drive was indeed a little difficult.
However, Su Luo was still staring out of the window in a daze.
"Su, are you nervous?"
Captain Matuska woke up from his sleep and found that Sullo was still in his original position.
"No, I'm just thinking about what kind of celebratory action I should design after I score.”
"Eh?"
Sullo's answer surprised Matuska.
However, thinking about it carefully, this was very much in line with Sullo's characteristics.
He always had an inexplicable confidence.
It was as if no matter what opponent he encountered, he believed that he would definitely score.
Perhaps this was the quality of a top striker?
If Sullo surpassed Messi and Ronaldo in the future, Matushka would not be surprised.
Originally, he did not have much confidence in this cup game.
A lower league team played in the third place in the Bundesliga, and the other team was said to be playing with all their main players.
At most, they could just feel the atmosphere in the Bundesliga.
Now that he thought about it, perhaps this match really had a chance!
Because they had Sullo!
With Sullo, there were endless possibilities!
