Chapter 166: Battle Between Ice and Fire
Taking advantage of the three-day holiday, Li Tongfan took his parents to visit various scenic spots and shopping places in Madrid. Because he was accompanying his parents, Lao Li made an exception and did not dress up this time. Think about it, how annoying would it be to accompany your parents and dress like a man in black?
As a result, fans asked for photos and autographs everywhere they went, and some older fans actually enthusiastically asked to take photos with Crazy Li's parents!
Dad Li Ying was a little unhappy at first, but his mother He Feng glared: "It's hard to come out once, but I have to leave some memories for you to go back and take a picture. It's not like you have to go up the mountain of swords and go into the frying pan! Girl Yuwei is right, we We are both happy, and our son can send us back with peace of mind, so he can work with peace of mind, right?"
Later, more and more people took photos with the two old people, but Li Tongfan was left out in the cold. He just stood aside and signed the photos! The two old men felt incredible that their sons were so popular abroad, and their faces were filled with smiles from the bottom of their hearts!
Li Tongfan deliberately stomped his feet: "Mom and Dad, you are still as charming as before. My son is jealous!"
"This brat..."
After two days, my parents walked around the streets and alleys, and their physical strength was a bit unable to keep up. On the third day, they bought groceries and prepared for a "big banquet" at home. Li Tongfan asked Li Tongfan to call and send Tolosi-Tang and Ka Bai Di-Henry and Elena invited several familiar foreigners to their home for dinner. Of course, they also got the "Yuwei girl" as their mother called them!
When the three foreigners Tolosi and Tang heard that they had another opportunity to eat, they rushed over after work because they knew that Lao Li's parents were going back to China in the next two days, so they prepared small gifts!
"Just come. If you like to eat the food cooked by aunt, when you come to China in the future, I will come to my house and cook it for you every day!" My mother He Feng is a person who likes to have fun and has already started spreading invitations!
"OK, I must go." The little lolita Elena had an expression of endless aftertaste on her face, and she agreed more happily than anyone else: "I like to eat butchered vegetables, braised pork elbow... and cold skin..."
Three days later, Tolosi, Tang and Elena sent Li Tongfan's parents back to China. Originally, only Tang was enough. Who knew that his mother, He Fengting, liked Elena, a foreign girl, and they met him unexpectedly. When Lao Li saw his daughter, he thought, "Oh, there's a new relative in a few days. Why don't we go and see her off together!"
…
On February 18, Real Madrid defeated the underdog Celta Vigo 3-0 at home! Beckham scored twice from a free kick, Ronaldo added the icing on the cake!
This game is just a warm-up for Real Madrid. Three days later, the first knockout round of the UEFA Champions League begins. The team flies to Bremerhaven, Germany to challenge the veteran Bundesliga powerhouse Cloud Parrot Legion in Bremen!
Speaking of Werder Bremen, many people think that it is just a simple football club, but the real fact is that in addition to football, this sports club also conducts various sports such as handball, track and field, table tennis, gymnastics and chess. , of course, mainly football!
The state of Werder Bremen is: having too many skills is not overwhelming, there is no most, only more...
Whether in Germany or abroad, the Bundesliga team Werder Bremen is second only to the Bundesliga hegemon Bayern Munich in popularity among fans, because the Parrots are followers of awesome offensive football - although they are not as good as Barcelona. High, but they can often score jaw-dropping big scores. Even Bayern Munich was once humiliated by them with more than 5 goals!
Of course, a big score here doesn’t just mean winning with a big score, it also means losing with a big score. It can be said that the Parrot Legion is a nerve knife. If it plays smoothly in the game, it can block and kill people, and Buddha blocks and kills. Buddha, but if things go wrong, even the German second division team can poke a few holes in them!
For such a team, you can never know what kind of "wonderful performance" it will provide in the next game, so Li Tongfan still behaved very cautiously when facing Werder Bremen!
In addition to his crazy playing style, Lao Li was also afraid of this team because of one person - Tomas-Schaaf.
Schaff is another legendary head coach in the history of Werder Bremen after Otto the Great Rehagel. If Rehagel is the founder of Bremen's glory, then Schaff is a genius resurgence like Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty!
As a player, defender Thomas Schaff will play for Bremen for 16 years, playing 262 times and scoring 13 goals. In the 1993-94 season, Schaff played his last game for Bremen as a player-coach. season, retired the following year and became the head coach of the Werder Bremen amateur team.
Coaching an amateur team was just the beginning. In the 1998-99 season, Uncle Schaff, who had been married for many years and became a mother-in-law, succeeded Magath, who had led the team with poor results, and became the head coach of Werder Bremen, starting the journey of the Parrot Legion. [Schaff Era], and unexpectedly defeated Bayern Munich that season to win the German Cup!
Thomas Schaff's most glorious achievement came in the 2003-04 season, when he led the team to win the Bundesliga and Cup double crown, and was named German Football Person of the Year in 2004!
Although not as arrogant and dazzling as Mourinho, and not as graceful as Rijkaard, this does not prevent the European media from comparing Schaff and Crazy Lee together, because of the characters and behaviors of Thomas Schaff and Crazy Li. Completely opposite, just like ice and fire, one is cold and quiet, the other is public and hot!
Also a young leader in the football coaching world, unlike Crazy Lee, Scharf is very low-key. The first impression of Thomas Scharf is that he speaks very softly, and the second impression is that he speaks very little. In this regard, Thomas Scharf said: "Evaluate a coach by his achievements, not by his self-praise."
The low-key Thomas Scharf will not deliberately seek praise. Whether it is his birthday or the tenth anniversary of coaching Bremen, Thomas Scharf has not held any public commemorative activities. When winning the double championship in the 2003-2004 season, Thomas Scharf was unexpectedly calm. When Allofs rushed into the stadium desperately to hug the players, Thomas Scharf was just quietly intoxicated by the scene in front of him.
Bremen fans all hope to see the lively scene of the players throwing Thomas Scharf into the sky, but when Borowski and Baumann were ready to do so, Thomas Scharf smiled and refused. After shaking hands with the opposing coach, Schaff began to walk slowly in the empty Olympic Stadium. No matter how the fans shouted his name or how the players wanted to drag him into the sea of revelry, Thomas Schaff remained unmoved.
However, after knowing this story, Li Tongfan, who judged others by his own meanness, maliciously thought: "Uncle Schaff's pretentiousness is even higher than mine, otherwise I will turn around and be calm for once?
"Kicker" magazine used a large article to introduce and compare the coaching characteristics and records of Crazy Lee and Thomas Schaff to German fans in detail, and finally ended the report with this sentence:
"Although the two teams that pursue offensive football are about to collide, the head coaches of both sides have very different personalities. Thomas Schaff, who is good at creating miracles, and Crazy Lee, who is the spokesperson for miracles, will bring us a contest of ice and fire. As a German publication, I wish Schaff good luck! "
Obviously, although the Parrots have the home advantage, Kicker is not optimistic about Werder Bremen's victory. The head coach is indeed important, but the gap between the two teams is obvious, not to mention that Crazy Lee seems... as if... it is possible... should be no worse than Schaff!
...
February 21!
The Weser Stadium, which can accommodate 50,000 people, is full, and Real Madrid's away challenge to Werder Bremen is in full swing!
The two teams, which are also good at offense, collided with each other. The dazzling offensive and defensive rhythm and dazzling coordination made the fans in the stands intoxicated. The game was as predicted by most European media before the game, except that Attack or attack!
Crazy Lee has his pride, and Thomas Schaff has his own persistence!
In the 55th minute of the game, there was a deafening cheer in the stadium. Bremen striker Klose received a cross from full-back Fritz and headed in Joel Luka to score!
The score on the field was 2:3, with the home team in front and the away team behind!
Crazy Lee's Real Madrid temporarily led by 1 goal!
Sidelines!
Li Tongfan couldn't help shaking his head while standing in front of the bench. He turned his head and glanced at Thomas Schaff, who was sitting calmly on the Bremen coaching bench not far away, and cursed inwardly: Damn, [K God] is so fucking awesome, it's so simple He was able to seize the opportunity to head in a goal even with the cooperation?
He is indeed one of the five god-like players in the striker position ranked by the FM2007 system!
From the beginning of the game, Real Madrid relied on goals from Van Nistelrooy and Ronaldo to get off to a dream start within ten minutes. Then David Beckham, the free kick master, once again used his unique free kick skill, the Crescent Blade, and a standard Beckham arc penetrated the ten fingers of Bremen goalkeeper Wiese, expanding the score to 3:0!
At that time, Lao Li stood on the sidelines and sighed with gloating: professional players are really a group of shameless men who change their faces faster than turning pages of a book!
After falling behind 0:3 in the first half, if it was Any head coach should think about the defense problem, but Uncle Schaff resolutely replaced the central defender Paulsen with the strong Portuguese center forward Hugo Almeida at the beginning of the second half, raising the banner of the Jedi counterattack in a very cool way!
The effect was immediate!
The famous FM2007 striker Klose, known as the K God, really broke out as if he had taken K powder. He scored twice in 5 minutes, all through simple crosses from the wingers and smashed them into the goal with his awesome big head!
The K God was born, and the header was invincible!
