The following days will be very busy for Tong Yi and the players of Munich 1860. The new season is really coming.
Next week, Munich 1860 will have a double match.
The first round of the Europa League in the 2010-2011 season has also arrived. In midweek, Munich 1860 will be away from home to welcome Tong Yi in his first Europa League game. After returning to Germany at the weekend, he still has to go
The away game welcomes the first round of the Bundesliga season.
Therefore, this week has been very hard for Tong Yi and the players of Munich 1860.
Tong Yi hopes that the players of Munich 1860 can cheer up and get into the rhythm of the game.
Munich 1860's opponent in the first round of the Europa League was Bratislava, a powerful team from Slovakia. They can even be called a giant in Slovakia.
Before Czechoslovakia was disbanded, Bratislava was a strong team in the league. It was also the Slovak team that won the most league championships at that time, winning a total of 8 domestic top league championships. In 1969
At that time, they also defeated Barcelona 3-2 and won the European Cup Winners' Cup.
After Slovakia became independent, they won a total of 8 domestic top league championships and 6 cup championships, including 4 league and cup doubles.
This team is truly a powerhouse.
Last season, they lost to Slovakia by only three points and finished second in the league, but they won the domestic cup. It can be said that they are still the top team in Slovakia.
Tong Yi is still very cautious about such a team.
Tong Yi doesn't want to capsize in the gutter.
After all, the Europa League is a breeding ground for upsets, and he doesn't want to be eliminated in the first round.
Tong Yi directly said to his own players, "This is a very crucial game for our league. This is the first European war for our team Munich 1860, so I hope you can give one percent."
If you are in perfect condition, defeat your opponent and advance to the next round."
Senderos shouted loudly, "Understood, we will definitely defeat our opponent!"
Tong Yi also said, "Don't underestimate our opponents. They are Slovakia's top teams. We must show our best form. Do you understand?"
The players of Munich 1860 nodded and said they understood.
Tong Yi actually understands that Bratislava will definitely think that this game is their opportunity. After all, Munich 1860 is only a newly promoted team from the Bundesliga. They were still a Bundesliga team last season. They will definitely
The people are no worse than Munich 1860.
Sure enough, when Bratislava head coach Michael Shipp was interviewed by media reporters, he said, "This game is a good opportunity for us. Our opponent Munich
1860 has been in the Bundesliga for several years. They have been away from the European competition for a long time. This is their huge disadvantage, but we are different. I believe that we can defeat Munich 1860, we have the strength.”
Shipp was very confident at this time, as if they had already won.
Shipp also faced questions from media reporters and said, "Tong Yi? This Chinese coach? To be honest, I don't know much about him. At present, I only know that he got the position of head coach of Munich 1860 through a woman.
, I think I am very confident in facing any opponent. Because except for my mother when I was a child, I have never relied on any woman. What I rely on is strength.
We must win this game!"
Did you see that Hipp is so confident?
Shipp was born as a player and almost always played in China, where he was considered a good player. After his playing career ended, he became a coach. He served as an assistant coach and head coach for many teams. He once
He became the assistant coach of the Slovak national team from 2003 to 2006. In 2008, he moved to the Slovak national team again as an assistant coach.
He has been the head coach of Bratislava since last season.
In Tong Yi's memory, he has heard of this guy's name, because in 2012-2013, this guy became the head coach of the Slovak national team.
Therefore, this person still has some strength.
No wonder, he is so arrogant now and does not take Munich 1860 seriously at all.
Granted, in his eyes, Munich 1860 is a German second division team.
Yes, Bratislava is still a little behind when facing the Bundesliga team, but facing the Bundesliga team, they are very confident. At least Shipp is very confident!
Seeing Shipp's confidence, the fans in Bratislava are also confident. They also firmly believe that their team can defeat 1860 Munich and advance to the next round of the Europa League.
The next round of the Europa League is the group competition.
Entering the group competition means that they can have more opportunities to appear in the Europa League, play more Europa League games, and get more bonuses.
This is what drives people in Bratislava.
They must win this game!
Shipp's interview was naturally reprinted by the German media, which made the Munich 1860 fans very angry. These guys obviously looked down on their Munich 1860. The fans were calling for Bratislava to look good!
At this time, Tong Yi had already led his team to Slovakia.
To be honest, the weather in Slovakia is still a bit cold.
However, Tong Yi and the players of Munich 1860 can still adapt.
They came to the away game three days in advance to adapt to the climate, weather and turf here. This shows that they are very concerned about this game.
The game is also given special importance.
During the three days here, Munich 1860 was naturally shut down by Slovak fans and media. Almost every day, Slovak fans and reporters gathered outside their hotels and training grounds, as if they were here to inquire about military intelligence.
The same.
What people didn't expect was that among these people there were fans of Munich 1860.
This was beyond Tong Yi's surprise.
Through their understanding, the man who held up banners in support of Munich 1860 at the training ground and outside nine o'clock was not a German or a Chinese, but a native Slovak. He was even the first Slovakian in Bratislava.
As a local, he did not support his hometown team in this game, but instead supported Munich 1860, which surprised Tong Yi and others.
This guy is a die-hard 1860 Munich fan!
Later, Tong Yi learned that this guy named Kossenik was actually a die-hard fan of De Bruyne, and then he fell in love with Munich 1860.
Tong Yi didn't expect that De Bruyne would be so attractive at this time.
Later, De Bruyne went to learn that this guy had been fond of the cartoon "The Adventures of Tintin" since he was a child. Later, he accidentally learned that there was a player in Belgium nicknamed Tintin, who said he looked like the protagonist of the cartoon.
So he began to lock up De Bruyne and became a die-hard fan of De Bruyne.
Last season, he watched De Bruyne's Bundesliga games through various methods, and thus fell in love with Tong Yi, 1860 Munich, and even regarded 1860 Munich as his mother.
Team up.
To be honest, both De Bruyne and Tong Yi were very moved.
To this end, Tong Yi also agreed to take this 14-year-old kid to visit their hotel in Munich 1860, and let the players take photos with the little fan. De Bruyne also gave away his signed jersey.
To thank such young fans for their support.
The media in Slovakia also quickly learned about this incident and reported it immediately.
This also caused some excitement in Slovakia.
However, the fans in Bratislava did not condemn this little fan, and even sent their blessings. Of course, some people are very envious of this little guy, because they also like De Bruyne very much.
I want De Bruyne's signed jersey.
And most of these fans are young girls!
As a result, De Bruyne also gained the nickname "Girl Killer" among the players of Munich 1860.
It is precisely because of the existence of these young fans that the excitement of this game is not as strong as before. However, fans on both sides are still full of expectations for this game. They all hope to be able to win.
See the result of this game.
This game is a home and away game. Therefore, Tong Yi, on behalf of Munich 1860, also sent an invitation to Kossenik to watch the next game in Munich, Germany. NIH 1860 match against Bratislava.
This made the Kossenik family very happy, and they all expressed that they would definitely go.
In this atmosphere, the match between Munich 1860 and Bratislava started at the opponent's home stadium, Pasienki Stadium.
This stadium can only accommodate more than 11,000 people, but today it was packed with people.
The starting lineup sent by Tong Yi looks like this
De Gea
Back four from left to right Alaba, Senderos, Campbell and Walker
Midfield four from left to right Perisic, Matic, Gilberto and De Bruyne
Double forward Costa and Griezmann
At the beginning of the game, Bratislava still posed some threats to Munich 1860. They were fully committed at the beginning, and they were able to threaten Munich 1860's goal with three goals. They even almost broke through the goal guarded by De Gea.
, fortunately De Gea reacted in time and saved the football.
However, after fifteen minutes of the first half, Munich 1860 gradually adapted to Bratislava's style of play and tactics. They gradually turned against the visitors and took control of the game. Munich 1860's high-intensity high-pressure defense was
It posed a very big threat to the Bratislava players and even made them confused, very flustered and uncomfortable.
Hipp could see that he was anxious in his heart, but he had no good solution.
At the 26th minute of the first half, De Bruyne made a forward push and directly cut off the football from the opponent's midfielder. Then he took two steps and then was 32 meters away from the ball.
From a wide position on the wing, he shot directly.
The football fired by De Bruyne was like a cannonball, flying straight into the upper left corner of Bratislava's goal. The goalkeeper jumped out and moved very smoothly without touching the football.
One to zero!
De Bruyne's kick opened the Bratislava goal.
Kossenik in the stands was very excited and shouted wildly, shouting De Bruyne's name. He was really excited and excited. Watching this ball made his blood boil.
This can be regarded as De Bruyne's iconic long-range shot.
Seeing this, Tong Yi was completely relieved. They would definitely win this game.
In the 15th minute of the second half, Walker, who came up from the wing, received a pass from Gilbert and passed directly. Costa, who was at the back point, jumped high and overwhelmed the opponent's defender.
He smashed the football into the opponent's goal with hatred.
Two to zero!
Fifteen minutes later, Nainggolan, who came on as a substitute, stole the ball in the midfield, broke through with the ball at high speed, reached the edge of the opponent's penalty area, and suddenly inserted the football into the penalty area with a diagonal kick.
Griezmann easily succeeded in pushing the ball in the penalty area.
Three to zero, Munich 1860 defeated Bratislava in an away game and got a good start in the Europa League.
