Chapter 319: No One Expected (Second Update.)

As Elton ran back with the soccer ball in his arms, his teammates followed him from behind, not stopping him in his tracks, but following him.

Topmüller stood on the sidelines stunned.

He looked at the group that ran back en masse.

Just six minutes into the game, Werder Bremen already had a one-goal lead......

Topmüller did a lot of preparation before the game, and his players faithfully executed his tactical demands during the game.

But they never thought that even if it were...... There is no way to stop Werder Bremen from scoring!

Originally, he thought that in this game, Werder Bremen did not send the main lineup, especially Rongguang did not play, which was good news for himself.

Unexpectedly, in this game, Elton was like playing chicken blood, scoring in the first six minutes!

Aren't you leaving?

Didn't you fall out with Schaf?

For what...... Why are you still working so hard?!

Even if the team wins the league title, the media and fans will only praise the glory, and no one will talk about you...... So why are you working so hard?

Topmuller was puzzled.

※※※

He was stunned for a long time, and it wasn't until the players of Werder Bremen finished their celebrations and ran back that Topmüller came to his senses.

He turned his head to look at the big screen and looked at the time on it, after Werder Bremen's celebration, it was only seven minutes now.

At least eighty-three minutes are left until the end of the game.

There's still a long way to go......

Long enough burgers to do everything they want.

Thinking of this, Topmuller's heart relaxed a little.

Conceding a goal too early is a bad thing and a good thing, it's up to you how you deal with it.

Topmüller, who had come to his senses, waved his arms and yelled at the Hamburg players on the sidelines, telling them to calm down and not get too nervous. When we concede a goal, we just have to get it back.

※※※

At the same time, Werder Bremen coach Schaaf did not relax because of the goal, he was still quite nervous.

Because the game has just begun, the opponent has enough time to equalize or even overtake. And after Glory scores, they will definitely be more valued by Hamburg, and what they will do in defense is not good.

He still worries about injuries to his players.

He wants the team to win, but he also wants no one to get hurt.

Although these are substitutes, the substitutes are also important. At the critical moment of the battle for the league title, as he himself said, there is no main force and no substitute.

He also made adjustments.

Players are asked to shrink their defense.

Elton's goal helped the team take the lead, so there was no need for the team to press out to attack with possession, and keeping the ball at their feet for a long time would definitely increase the likelihood of injury to players.

Now shrink the defence, give Hamburg possession and increase their time on the ball, and they may not have as much time to think about how to target Werder Bremen's players.

And after the score is ahead, playing defense and counteracting is originally a fixed adjustment routine. Werder Bremen have a speed master like Elton and just play a quick counter-attack.

Now the team just needs to be patient with Hamburg.

※※※

In the twentieth minute, fifteen minutes after the previous goal, Werder Bremen made a comeback, using a counter-attack from Elton to run forward and score a shot to complete the attack alone.

"Elton! 2:0! Brace!! Werder Bremen lead Hamburg by two goals at home! In the sprint stage of the league, the return of Elton is undoubtedly the biggest good news for Werder Bremen! He has scored three goals for the team in two games! With him, the pressure of scoring can be greatly shared by other players, and more players can also get a chance to rest......"

Marcel Leif latest: "It's a pity that such a good player has to leave the team at the end of the season and go to Schalke 04 to play. If Schaaf had put down his body and communicated with Elton sooner, maybe it wouldn't be what it is now......"

※※※

Topmuller finally cursed.

His team is aggressive and well-prepared on the road, and it shouldn't be the current situation in any way, right?

Easily scored two goals by the opponent!

How can this game be played?!

He hadn't seen the red eyes of the Werder Bremen players until this time - in his impression, it should be his own players who killed the red eyes......

Elton's brace boosted the morale of the rest of the Werder Bremen players, who were determined to win the game before the game, and now Elton's performance has set an example for all of them.

The power of example is endless.

Seeing Elton perform well, the rest of the players were not far behind.

When the game resumed, they fought for the lead.

That momentum even picked the players of Hamburg......

Next, Werder Bremen fought back mercilessly on the basis of a steady defense.

Before the end of the first half, they scored another goal and were already three goals ahead of Hamburg.

This first half completely stunned Hamburg.

They had no idea that they would be hit like this away from home.

Everything they have ready for them is useless in the game.

Hamburg's players even began to wonder if the pre-match tactics were correct.

Is it really possible to win the game with this trick?

And...... Didn't they say they were all substitutes and we could easily win?

Why is this substitute more difficult to deal with than the main force?!

Hamburg felt that either the game started the wrong way, or that the world was wrong......

Anyway, there's always something wrong, otherwise how could it be that they were all the main players and were pressed by the full substitute Werder Bremen to score three goals?

When Werder Bremen scored the third goal, the TV broadcast cut to give Hamburg manager Topmüller a close-up, which was stunned.

"It looks like Topmueller won't be able to accept this score for a while...... Actually, let alone him, I don't think many Hamburg fans in front of the TV will probably not be able to accept it......"

Marcel Leif sighed.

※※※

In fact, there is also a person who is also surprised by this score as far away as Cologne.

Heathfield had already changed his posture and was not as comfortable as he was on the couch before the game began.

Now he sits very upright on the couch, staring intently at the TV screen.

The mouth is slightly open, and the expression is sluggish.

This is standard surprise.

He was indeed surprised.

Because he never imagined that Werder Bremen, who played as a full substitute, would only take half a time at home, making this game lose its suspense!

3:0!

Elton scored two goals and the other goal was scored by Charlie Steas.

With such a substitute lineup, Hamburg has nothing to do with them!

As a result, Werder Bremen's main squad was given a break, and they also got a win over Hamburg.

Ahead of the 32nd round of the league against Bayern Munich, Werder Bremen was still six points ahead of Bayern Munich.

All of a sudden, the situation turned against Bayern Munich.

Even if Bayern Munich beat Werder Bremen at home, they will have to pray that Werder Bremen will not win in the last two league games. It's best to lose two in a row, and at worst it's one win and one draw.

As long as Werder Bremen wins in a row, then Bayern Munich will have no play.

Heathfield couldn't laugh at all now.

Coming to his senses, he turned off the TV.

There's no need to watch Werder Bremen anymore.

It's a bunch of substitutes, and there's no value in examining.

There was no suspense about the outcome of the game, and Heathfield absolutely did not believe that Werder Bremen could still lose...... Of course, if he did lose, Heathfield wouldn't mind.

What he should be doing now is thinking about how his team is going to deal with it in a situation like this.

Obviously, Werder Bremen's main players have been given a break, so the next thing he will have to face in the German Cup final is a Werder Bremen main team that has been resting for an extra week.

Of course, Heathfield will also rotate to give more Bayern Munich players a chance to rest.

In this round of the league, Bayern Munich challenged Cologne away.

The opponent is not strong, so there is no need to make a big move.

So this round of the league doesn't have to think about it.

The important thing is the next two games.

In four days, they met twice, first in the German Cup final and then in the league.

It was, as the Munich media put it, "four days of decisive battle".

In four days, two races, two champions were decided.

Heathfield wants a double if it is possible.

But if he had to make a trade-off, he would not hesitate to give up the German Cup and go for the league title. Although the German Cup title may seem to be the least difficult one.

Compared to the league title, the German Cup is nothing to mention!

But how do you make sure you win two titles?

And what happens if we lose the German Cup in the first game?

Heathfield pulled out the pen and paper he had prepared in the hotel and began to write down all the possibilities on paper.

Bayern Munich lost the German Cup.

Bayern Munich won the German Cup.

In both cases, how do the team and themselves deal with it?

He stared at the handwriting on the paper and fell into deep thought.

※※※

While Heathfield was deep in thought, the "Northern Derby" between Werder Bremen and Hamburg was still underway.

Although at half-time, Topmueller made some changes to the second half.

But that hasn't changed.

After the start of the game, Werder Bremen tightened their defense and did not allow the opponent to score easily.

At the same time, wait for an opportunity to fight back.

In the end, Werder Bremen also scored three goals in the second half, the same number as in the first half.

This "Northern Derby", which was supposed to be fiercely contested and you come and go, turned out to be one-sided.

Werder Bremen swept Hamburg 6-0 at home with a full bench lineup.

Far from avenging a first-half home draw away from home, Topmüller's side have added new wounds......

But he wasn't to blame, because everyone probably didn't expect this match to be played out like this......
