This suffocating scramble continues.

In the 32nd round of the league, Bayern Munich played first, and they beat Mainz 4-2 away.

The pressure ball was kicked again to Werder Bremen.

A day later, they will take on Borussia Dortmund at the stadium that will strike fear into the hearts of Europe.

Although Dortmund's performance this season has not been good, the performance of Dortmund fans has been impeccable.

In the midst of a financial crisis that has led to a decline in results, every home game at the Westphalen Stadium is still packed.

Fans support the team in the simplest way possible – not a single home stadium goes to the stadium to watch the game, hoping that the ticket revenue will pay off some of the club's debts.

So this penultimate home game of the season is still full and full.

The yellow-and-black Dortmund fans paved the entire stadium.

They don't care that Dortmund have lost hope of qualifying for Europe.

Before the start of the game, they were singing and cheering on the team from the stands.

“…… It's an admirable group of fans. During the warm-up, Werder Bremen's team-mate Krasnich looked up at the fans in the stands and muttered to himself. I even think that as a Borussia Dortmund player, there should be a lot of pressure to play at home......"

"That's a shame. We're going to win. ”

The words came out of nowhere, startling Krasnic - he didn't remember anyone next to him.

But he only found out now, and he didn't know when Lu Dao appeared by his side.

He looked at Rongguang, but Rongguang was still warming up, as if he hadn't spoken at all a second ago.

Krasnić quietly moved to Klose's side and whispered to him, "Milo, do you think that since that game against AC Milan, Rong has become a little strange? ”

Klose also nodded: "I think he's become a lot more gloomy......"

"That's right! That's how I feel! It feels like he'll always be next to you at some point, and then suddenly a sentence will pop up and scare you! ”

"That's right, you're right, Ivan."

"But...... What made him like this? Krasnich touched his chin and said confusedly.

"Maybe the last kick of the game......" Klose muttered.

When Rongguang was running wildly in front with the ball, he was also chasing desperately in the back, wanting to be able to appear in front of the goal, so that even if Rongguang was shooting, he might still have a chance to make up for it.

In fact, this is the case after the eventual collapse.

But he didn't show up in front of the goal, because he couldn't run anymore, and when Glory shot, he was still outside the box......

All he could watch was the soccer ball sliding out of the door, and then he covered his face with his hands, braked sharply, and slipped backwards to the ground.

He still remembers that scene very well.

So how can the glory of being closer to the goal than he himself not linger on?

※※※

After the start of the game, although the fans of the "Hornet" were cheering for Dortmund with singing and cheering.

Werder Bremen fared even better.

They took control of the situation and clearly gained the upper hand.

In the 31st minute, Miku sent a through ball and Klose did not shoot himself after receiving the ball in the ribs, but crossed it.

Glory plugged in from behind and shot low with his foot.

The ball sticks to the turf, passes through Weidenfeller's ten fingers, and drills into the goal!

1：0！

Werder Bremen takes the lead!

"Rong ——! It's Rong again! His goal made the suffocating air at the Westphalian Stadium flow and the tension disappeared a lot! ”

"He's a Werder Bremen hero! Trustworthy people! ”

The commentators praised Glory with all kinds of good words.

Alofs, who sat in the dugout, watched as Schaff rushed out of the jaw, raising his arms and shouting in celebration of the goal.

He thought of what Schaaf had said.

Anyway...... I still have to try it myself.

It's for the team...... interests.

※※※

With a glorious goal, Werder Bremen eventually beat Borussia Dortmund 1-0 away and kicked Bayern Munich back to football.

They are back two points ahead of Bayern Munich.

And after the game, on the plane back to Bremen from Dortmund, Alofs drove away Borowski, who was sitting next to Glory, and then replaced Borowski and sat next to Glory.

"Shall we talk, Sakae?"

He asked.

Glory nodded, he didn't know what Alovs was looking for him.

"Well, first of all, congratulations on your goal against Borussia Dortmund, which was your 20th league goal of the season, right?"

Rongguang thought for a moment, and then said, "Seems to be, right? ”

'I remember you scored 21 league goals in your first season with Werder Bremen and now you've equalled that number, which is remarkable.

Rongguang smiled and didn't say anything.

Seeing that Glory was not moved by his compliment, Alofs remembered the words of Schaaf: "...... If you think you can bluff him with a few rhetoric, you're very wrong......"

That seems to be the case......

※※※

"What did Klaus do when he ran to Sakae?"

Assistant coach Kemp also noticed Alofs' move and asked Schaff next to him.

Schaaf glanced back and saw Alofs sitting with Glory.

"Leave him alone, maybe just talk."

"Heart-to-heart?" Camp was a little surprised: "When is that Klaus guy going to do that?" ”

'Your loan contract with the team is coming to an end soon. Even though you're on loan, Young, you're the biggest contributor to the team, and I don't think anyone in the team would doubt that. We all love you, and the fans love you – you've only been with the team for one season and they've chosen you as the favourite...... Well...... Are you still used to living in Bremen? ”

Rongguang nodded: "Not bad, Mr. Manager." I'm not very picky about those. ”

"Will there be fans walking down the street asking you for autographs and photos?"

"Something that is often done. Sometimes I don't even have to pay for my meals. ”

Alofs laughed happily: "I don't think even the mayor of Bremen can enjoy such treatment, Rong!" ”

"Hah!" Rongguang saw the manager smiling so happily, it seemed rude not to laugh along with him. So even though he didn't want him to laugh, he laughed anyway.

Seeing that Rong Guang finally smiled, Alofs felt that the time was ripe, so he spoke, "Then have you ever considered staying in the city of Bremen, Rong?" ”

Rongguang was stunned for a moment: "What? ”

He thought he hadn't heard clearly.

"I mean, Werder Bremen admires you very much, I hope you can continue to play for the team, everything is negotiable, and we will give you a salary and bonuses that you are happy with...... Everything, as long as you want to stay. What do you think? Think about it, Rong? ”

When Alofs said this, Glory's mouth was slowly open, and by the time Alofs finished speaking, his whole person was already in a "dumbfounded" state.

"I know it's a sudden, but the club has been thinking about it for a long time......," Alofs continued, a little surprised. We are also willing to meet all your reasonable requests, which is not easy, but it shows our sincerity even more......"

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Glory shaking his head.

"Thank you for the kindness of the club, Mr. Manager. But I still want to go back to Bayern Munich. ”

Rong Guang said calmly.

"Uh......" Alofs didn't expect Glory to refuse so directly and crisply.

"You really ...... Don't think about it? You know, in this team, you are the core, the manager here appreciates you, the team-mates here know you, and the fans here like you. This is a mature team, and after two years of running-in, it is now time to produce results. And you're the most critical part! It's better than starting over with an unfamiliar team, right? ”

Glory admits that Alofs is right.

He feels very comfortable in the team of Werder Bremen, and he even enjoys some privileges in the team.

Everyone treats themselves like stars holding the moon, and they cooperate happily with the coaches and teammates here, and cooperate tacitly.

If you just want to play comfortably, then Werder Bremen is a really good choice.

But......

But I don't just want to be comfortable......

I want to win the title, to win the title better than the Bundesliga title!

Can Werder Bremen fulfill this wish?

Glory remembered what Kaka had said to him.

“…… You work your own, but unfortunately, your teammates are too far away from you, and they can't help you much. So no matter how hard you try, you can't change the result. We are the winners, I go to the Final Four, and you ...... What a pity! ”

During this time, these words always swirled in Glory's mind and echoed in his ears.

The defeat against AC Milan was also constantly being replayed before his eyes.

He was reminded time and again that there was no future for him to stay at Werder Bremen.

It was also from that time that he realized the gap between himself and Kaka.

Kaka joined AC Milan and played in the best team in Italy and even in the world. The team had just won the Champions League two seasons ago.

And what about yourself?

Werder Bremen is not a big club in Germany, let alone in Europe and in the world.

How many Champions League titles have they won before?

Not once.

How many Champions League finals have they reached before?

Not once.

※※※

Rongguang shook his head again: "I'm sorry, Mr. Manager, I really like the feeling of playing in Werder Bremen, it's really good." But...... I prefer champions. So sorry ......"

Alofs was anxious: "We can win the championship too!" Last season, this season, the league champion ......"

Rong Guang asked rhetorically: "What about the Champions League winners?" ”

Alofs opened his mouth, but could not make a sound.

Schaaf's voice echoed in his head: "He's an ambitious player...... He knew in his heart what he had to do and what he had to get. He couldn't get what he wanted in Werder Bremen......"

Thinking of this, he jerked his head up at where Schaaf was.

Schauff didn't turn his head to meet his eyes, but whispered something to Kemp.

It turns out that Thomas already knew the way?

Was it when he was eliminated from the competition, when he went to comfort Glory?

Thinking of this, Alofs sighed.

"Well, I wish you ......"

He couldn't think of what to say.

“…… Good luck. ”

At the end of the day, he only thought of such a word.

PS, plus more sends.

Tomorrow at 3 a.m., Spain's match against Chile will be a life-and-death battle for Spain. So let's guess this game.

I predict a two-goal win for Spain though.

If not, I'll lose!
