Section 137: Half-time champion, southern hegemon

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 On December 9, 2001, the Tübingen youth went to Kaiserslautern to challenge the Kaiser II team. This was the last game in the first half of the season. They won the half-time championship two rounds ahead of schedule. Currently,

With 12 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss, they accumulated 39 points, 9 points more than second-placed Burghausen. Therefore, Keizer’s second team did not have the courage to defeat their opponents. Although the team was not out of the relegation zone, it faced

It's better to be patient with the youth of Tübingen. Besides, it doesn't matter whether a regional league is promoted. As the second team of a Bundesliga club, the German Football Association cannot allow you to be promoted to the professional league.

Therefore, facing the somewhat hopeless Kaizer II team, the Tubingen youth did not make a killing, scoring one goal in each half, ending the game with a score of 2:0.

There is no reward for the half-time championship, but it is also an honor! Especially for the small town of Tubingen, any honor is worth celebrating. Therefore, when the Tubingen youth team returned to the club, even in the winter, the small town's

The joyful atmosphere is almost catching up with the Chinese New Year.

The quiet town of Tübingen was unusually noisy. Although there was no parade organized, the players were still moving very slowly surrounded by fans. Back at the club, the fans were still unwilling to disperse. Jimbos Xu

As the head coach, he delivered a passionate and gentle speech, officially announcing his ambition to win the regional league championship and be promoted to the Bundesliga 2. This again aroused cheers from the fans.

This is the first time the club has publicly announced its season goals. Originally, everyone knew and could see it, but saying it directly expressed the club's firm determination and gave the fans a very good expectation.

The staff of "Baden Sports News" and Baden TV specifically interviewed Mr. Kimbers about this. It's not that they didn't want to interview the club owner, but the club owner never showed up and only promoted a Chinese girl as the general manager. No matter how you look at it,

Not as reliable as Mr. Kimbers. At least these reporters with a keen sense of smell know that the club really does what Mr. Kimbers says in terms of competition.

Regardless of age or seniority, Xu, who is famous in China, is the best interview target.

According to gossip from their counterparts in China, it seemed that Mr. Kim Bos had a bad temper, but Xu Genbao quickly dispelled the reporters' concerns with his gentle smile and clear and accurate German.

The reporters' first question was sharp: "Mr. Kimbos, why did you give up your salary of hundreds of thousands of euros in China to earn tens of thousands of euros in Germany? Or are you still working as a coach in Germany's second division?"

salary?”

Jinbos smiled and said: "50,000 euros, this is my salary, and it is also the average salary of coaches in regional leagues. As for why I came to Germany to coach, it is because German football is very strong, and our Chinese football is still very weak, so,

Whether you are a player or a coach, you need to come to Germany to study. I came here with the purpose of studying, and it is very cost-effective to be able to study without paying tuition, isn't it?"

The cunning Xu Genbao smiled brightly and at the same time he keenly caught the hidden smiles of several reporters. Even the old-fashioned Germans still enjoyed flattery.

Sure enough, the next questions were much more friendly.

"So, as a half-distance champion, have you learned anything from your defeated opponents?"

"Of course!" Jin Bo said calmly: "The coach's competition is different from the team's competition. The latter depends on the outcome, but the coach's competition does not focus on the outcome, but on the tactical command, and even

This is not important. I deeply experienced the fine traditions of German football and the complete tactical command system from my opponents, which touched me greatly and helped me a lot."

"From a failed opponent?"

"Yes! The victory of the game is accidental, but the coaching ability of the coach will not be lost with the victory or defeat of the club. To be honest, the strength of the Tübingen youth football team is also the reason why I came here.

. Several of our Chinese foreign players are the main players in China's top league, and there is no problem at all playing in the Bundesliga. Our Dr. Wang is the winner of the Golden Goal and Golden Boot in this year's World Junior Championship. At the same time, the team's

Most of the German players are also very strong."

Xu Genbao said very seriously: "I think Mesut and Pell have the ability to enter the German national team, at least the youth team. And Allison and Boateng can also enter Tanzania and

Australia's national team. Even players such as Favre in the late stages of their careers were the main players in the Bundesliga. Therefore, the player equipment of this team was too luxurious for the regional league. It is not easy to achieve such results.

strangeness."

The camera of Germany's Baden TV station faithfully recorded the handsome Mr. Kimbers' high praise for Ozil and Mertesacker. It doesn't matter whether they can be favored by the German Football Association. This reflects a Chinese-funded,

Chinese coaches and Chinese players’ clubs rely on German players! The good results of Tübingen youth depend on our German talents!

The interview ended with a pleasant exchange between the two parties. In order to prevent young players from being cheated by the media, the club asked Ozil and Mertesacker not to be interviewed. As for veterans like Favre, they will not cause trouble for themselves.

After the end of the half-season, Wang Ai has not returned to China for the time being. The reason why this season ended so early instead of being postponed to January next year is because next year’s World Cup takes up a long time, and leagues in various countries have to give way. But the game is gone.

, but there is still a lot of work to be done in the club, and some major matters need to be discussed by Wang Ai, Huang Xin, Leoni and Xu Genbao. Besides, there is nothing to do after returning to China so early. Xu Qinglian at home has already initiated plans for the college entrance examination.

Sprint, no matter how worried Wang Ai was, he would not dare to go back and disturb him, and simply stayed in Germany to help the club handle affairs.

Bai Guanghai and Luo Tongliang were not in a hurry to leave. They had only been in Germany for three months, and they still felt fresh everywhere. They took advantage of these few days to take a walk around Germany. Of course, they didn't dare to have fun. Bai Guanghai

Still working hard on heading the ball, Luo Tongliang plunged into Wang Ai's special training and couldn't extricate himself. When he returned to China, it was freezing and there was no place to practice, so he might as well stay in Germany and wait.

Return to China with Wang Ai.

With the Tübingen Youth Half-League Championship won, the attention of Bai Guanghai and Luo Tongliang in the country has also begun to rise. Because everyone knows that this team has a high probability of playing in the Bundesliga 2 next year. So,

By next summer, including Yang Chen who was relegated with the team, the number of Chinese players playing in the Bundesliga will reach an unprecedented five!

By the way, these two players who were unable to play in the Liaoning Football Team also attracted some attention from national brands. Of course, the appeal of Tubingen youth to Liaoning Football League and domestic players is also rapidly expanding!
