This response was already quite harsh. After the game, Nani also received a fine from UEFA and was suspended for three additional games. Of course, it will be postponed to next season. After the game, the Portuguese media collectively criticized Nani and competed for the championship.
Mouthpieces from rivals Benfica and Porto have joined in.
But this is the real world. Yi Zhe sighed when he accidentally saw these post-game tidbits.
"It's so scary..."
I didn't expect Nani to get to this point. Looking back on the first time I heard this name, it seems to be when I first started playing football... As expected, the media are just a bunch of people, and the world is as black as crows.
Although it was just a glance, Yi Zhe thought about it and his confidence came back. After all, he had a cheat, and he never joked about football. The butcher's knife of time would probably not come to him even in ten years.
So the most important thing is right now.
Returning to the league, Wolfsburg dedicated a goal battle in the next 23rd round of the league, beating Werder Bremen with a score of 5:3 and winning the second round of the "Green Derby".
Qi, De Bruyne, and Schürrle scored goals respectively, and Yizhe contributed a pass and a shot.
After the game, seven authoritative German media gave the highest ratings. There would be no suspense about Yi Zhe being elected the best of the match. However, the official broadcast signals during the game would turn to the Wolfsburg bench and target Zhang Xizhe.
Compared with Yi Zhe, although his name has the same elements, his career trajectory seems to be completely opposite. This is the second time that he has been shortlisted for the 18-man competition, but he only sat on the bench for the entire game.
"Will Zhang, the young midfielder who joined from the Chinese domestic league in the winter window, envy Yi's performance? Hahaha! But this is black gold. It seems that this player has not yet gained the trust of the coaching staff."
Reese Lubet was joking like this, and Chinese reporters even asked him directly after the game, which made Heijin frown: "Zhang is very capable, but tactical arrangements are the right of the coaching staff, and I am the head coach.
"
Yi Zhe covered his mouth and chuckled. This answer reminded him of before his debut. He glanced at these reporters with idiot eyes. Although they were compatriots, he was not polite.
Who is this? Black Gold! A famously stubborn old man. Can you impress him with just one question?
"I understand how you want to see Brother Xizhe make his debut, but you will only harm him by doing this. In Wolfsburg, tactics are top secrets, and...can't you satisfy everyone with me here?"
When Yi Zhe was being interviewed alone, he stood up and spoke, blocking many people's mouths in this half-joking way.
"But we want to see you two combining swords, Yi Zhe."
Some reporters still asked this.
But Yi Zhe smiled and shrugged: "I can only tell everyone that brother Xizhe performed very well in the training ground."
"Yizhe, will you help him integrate?"
"You don't need to remind me, sir!"
Zhang Xizhe's integration is indeed smooth. Perhaps he knows that there is a gap in his ability, so he takes the initiative to stay and practice after training every day. Many times, Yi Zhe will stay with him.
The two were practicing enthusiastically in the gym. It was obvious that Zhang Xizhe also knew his shortcomings. First of all, his physical fitness and confrontation ability. He had to work hard to keep up with the rhythm of the team.
"Ouch, I say, Zhe, you are so awesome and yet you practice so hard, please give me a way to survive!"
While Zhang Xizhe was training himself more, he watched Yi Zhe meticulously lift two small barbells to practice squats. The intensity was higher than his own, and he almost collapsed. Geniuses are not terrible, but the terrible thing is that geniuses are more desperate than you.
.
Yi Zhe just smiled. For him, this kind of intensity is just a warm-up. He thought to himself, you haven't seen me when I practice hard. That's the real high intensity of the system.
"Brother Xizhe, physical fitness is the most basic stepping stone, but you have to learn to play football the way Wolfsburg does."
Zhang Xizhe could only smile bitterly after hearing this. Of course he now knew what Wolfsburg's method was, but this thing took more than a day or two.
So now he looks at Yi Zhe with envy - some people can really win at the starting line. If he had had the opportunity to try out Barcelona...
Although this was just a joke, Zhang Xizhe himself did not expect that an opportunity would come the next day.
In the third round of the German Cup this season, Wolfsburg faced Red Bull Leipzig.
At that time, this team was still in the Bundesliga 2 and was a low-level league opponent. Heijing decisively chose to arrange a substitute lineup to deal with it. This was a rare opportunity and just allowed the main lineup to take a break.
So Zhang Xizhe directly entered the starting lineup.
"Congratulations, brother Xizhe, this is a step to the sky!"
Facing Yi Zhe's congratulations, he himself seemed a little nervous because the head coach approached him alone before the training ended.
"What's there to congratulate? I copied your trajectory, does that count? Haha!"
"That at least proves that you are safe as a starter in the future, haha!"
But in this game at the Leipzig Red Bull Arena, facing the overwhelming roar of 40,000 Leipzig fans, Zhang Xizhe shivered physically in the locker room.
Tomato free reading
Looking into the eyes of the head coach made him feel even more nervous, as if all the nervousness in his heart had been seen through.
When he walked onto the court, the broadcast camera just stopped. The German Cup could only be broadcast on online platforms in China due to copyright reasons, but the commentator was still Huang Jianxiang, a former CCTV celebrity.
"Xizhe is here! This is his first show. All fans hope that he can copy Yi Zhe's career trajectory. The benchmark is on the bench! Today, we finally have a good meal and we are not afraid of being late, but young people should be more confident! I'm curious.
It's normal, Heijin likes to tear up the opponent's football, but Xizhe's eyes lack murderous intent!"
As expected of a former CCTV celebrity, he can see the key point at a glance.
In the opponent's home court, such a flaw is almost fatal, especially when faced with the opponent's high-intensity pressure in the opening game.
In the first minute of the game, Zhang Xizhe took the ball in the center circle. He subconsciously wanted to turn around and pass the ball to the wing, but the ball did not reach his most dominant right foot, and he still wanted to adjust on the spot.
"Brother Xizhe, pass... pass it on!"
Yi Zhe stood up from the bench and shouted. He looked at it more seriously than his teammates, but at the moment he was speechless. As a midfielder, he was just scratching his head!
Sure enough, Hungarian midfielder Jolt Kalmar seized this opportunity, rushed forward and fought hard to steal the food from behind Zhang Xizhe.
Zhang Xizhe, who had the ball stolen, was still lying on the ground. He thought the referee would call a foul, but the referee did not whistle.
The opponent seized the opportunity and shot a long shot on the spot, forcing Benario to make a flying save to keep the goal.
"oh--"
"What the hell!"
Originally, Yi Zhe just sighed, but when he heard Hei Jin curse, he turned around and started pacing on the sidelines. His heart skipped a beat, and he began to feel bad for Zhang Xizhe.
