Unlike the surprised Hao.
In the team, Boujellab's originally smiling face instantly tensed up.
He turned his head to look at the happy-faced Hao.
Glancing at Su in passing.
Then turned his head with a cold face.
Damn it, is the old man confused?
Letting two scraps start?
Although Hannover 96 is weak, it's at least a 2. Bundesliga team.
Can Schalke Midfielder stand up to them without his Boujellab?
A Full-back, a loser who hadn't played a minute in three rounds of the league, and a Midfielder made up of U18 kids.
Thinking about this, Boujellab also grinned a cold smile.
Now it was time to see how these two losers would be teased by others when the time came.
After announcing the starting roster, the team's acclimatization training also began.
During the training, there wasn't any confrontation game, and Magath simply gave Su and Hao both instructions on Schalke's usual playing style.
The only role in Midfielder was to maintain a certain level of ball possession.
At the same time, when they found an opportunity, they were quick to give the ball to the side.
That's what Magath set out to do with the double-attacking midfielder of Su and Hao.
The duo of Pliatzikas and Annan can be fast horses for Schalke.
Add to that Klaas - Jan Huntelaar's tackling ability.
It's all about anchoring both sides, and in Magath's mind, even if Midfielder crumbles, at least he'll have a chance to change his starters in the second half to turn the game around.
.......
Seven o'clock in the evening on Thursday.
The first round of the German Cup was about to be officially played.
Magath rushed to the pre-match conference as soon as the bus pulled into the AWD Arena.
Although the cup competition was a chicken feed for FC Schalke 04.
But for Hannover 96, it was a big event for the whole team, even the whole city.
They have been hopeless to reach the first division, these seasons are focused on the cup competition.
After all, the promotion of cup competition not only can make the fans satisfied, but also the prize money of winning the cup competition and the high broadcasting cost are a huge income for Hannover 96 in the season.
Last season, Hannover 96 made it to the last 8 of the German Cup.
Although they were eliminated by Dortmund in the end, it gave many fans hope that Hannover 96 would return to the Bundesliga.
Peter Milner.
Hannover 96's veteran manager.
In charge of the team for four seasons, he never made it to the Bundesliga, but at least kept Hannover in the mid-table of the 2. Bundesliga with minimal investment.
Seeing Magath's arrival, Peter Milner greeted Magath in a gentlemanly manner, although he had been waiting for a long time.
There wasn't too much media present.
Most of them were local journalists from Hannover.
A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
As soon as they saw Magath take his seat.
The reporters frantically started to raise their hands.
After returning the greeting to Peter Milner, Magath also named a reporter.
“Hello Mr. Magath, I'm Kevin, a reporter from Hannover Football Newspaper!”
“May I ask what you are looking forward to for this match with Hannover 96?”
A very neutral question.
“Well, Hannover is a very strong opponent, so it should be a tough game!”
However, the reporter who should have ended his question directly interrupted Magath.
“Very strong? But I saw that you directly replaced two substitutes in your starting list, and even one was suddenly brought up from the U18 youth team, I want to know, is that how you think Hannover is a strong team?”
The originally harmonious press conference immediately looked like it had exploded.
The first list was released an hour before the match, counting the time, this should be released.
Obviously, this reporter had come prepared.
Although Magath was still not changing his expression, the other journalists were a bit excited.
This was big news, the Bundesliga team despised the 2. Bundesliga team and directly used the youth team substitutes to face the opponent!
With this headline, no matter what the result of the match is, at least the number of clicks will definitely explode.
Peter Milner, who was originally smiling on the stands, immediately tensed his face.
It's a godsend, originally he was still agonizing about his bad luck this year, and he drew Schalke directly.
Unexpectedly, this old man Magath came to send warmth.
He had all the substitutes on the bench, so there was hope for Hannover 96 to advance!
Although he is a little bit happy inside, the veteran Peter Milner can't show it.
Especially in front of the media, he has to act like a tough Hannover man.
This situation is an insult to Hannover 96.
There were no words.
The exasperated Peter Milner directly stood up and left the meeting.
The cameras in the hands of the reporters also clicked and clicked like they didn't want to die.
At this moment, Magath, who was still sitting on the stage, was a bit embarrassed.
This old thing, how a word directly fell bench away.
Magath is not stupid, looking at the press conference to become a one-man show, is also directly get up and flash.
Reporters can not wait for this opportunity.
Crackling a keyboard.
“Magath insults Hannover 96? U18s debut?
“Hannover 96's Battle of Shame, German Cup Debut for U18 Schalke!
A bunch of news of headline nature immediately appeared on the official websites of various websites.
....
And so it was.
What started out as a very ordinary German Cup match had turned into a battle of shame.
Of course, Su and Hao, who were listening carefully to Magath's tactical arrangements in the locker room, were completely unaware of this.
Thursday night at 7:45 pm!
The entire FC Schalke 04 team was also present in the players' tunnel.
The players of both teams were all serious in front of the cameras.
Accompanied by exciting music.
The players of the two teams also walked into the field, hand in hand with their ball boys.
Only, what made Su a little surprised was that just came out of the field.
The Hannover fans in the stands started booing like crazy.
This booing, made Smits, who was the captain on the field, also a bit strange.
You should know that Hannover and Schalke have no grudges against each other.
The two teams haven't even met in the German Cup over the years.
This ....
“Su, don't be nervous, just play as The 3. Liga, I'll find a way to help you more when the time comes!”
Hao trembled and turned his head to comfort Su.
Only when he turned his head, he realized that Su didn't have any nervousness at all, but was staring at him with great interest.
At this moment, Su was also inwardly vomiting.
In the end who is helping who ah.
After all, he was a member of his own family, and with such a good opportunity, Su did not hesitate to enter the system.
“Confirm binding FC Schalke 04, number 7 Hao?”
“Confirmed!”
Accompanied by SYSTEM's prompt, Su was also the first to bind the Perfect Partner card to Hao's body.
And at the same time, Hao suddenly felt as if his entire body had been electrocuted.
His body, which had just been trembling a bit, suddenly calmed down.
The eyes that looked at Su also suddenly became strange.
As if ....
As if suddenly he knew what kind of movements and postures this guy Su would have later on?
Blah blah blah!
What is this situation?
Again, along with the activation of the card.
Su also reacted instantly, as if he had been kicking around with the Hao in front of him for years?
This System thing, it's pretty fucking amazing.
After the two teams took team photos, they also headed to their respective halves.
FC Schalke 04 guessed the possession.
“Beep!”
The referee also looked at the watch in his hand, and after communicating with the side referee through his headset, he directly blew the whistle for the start of the match!
After the whistle.
Klaas - Jan Huntelaar also turned and gave the ball directly to Hao behind him.
Hannover forward Abdellaoue charged directly towards Hao.
Facing the aggressive Abdellaoue, Hao just lightly flicked the ball to the left, and then shook Abdellaoue straight to his right.
In this instant.
Hao did not hesitate for a second.
With a violin-like movement, his right foot pulled the ball to the right!
Then he directly passed Abdellaoue and rushed forward.
This flowing beat an opponent immediately made Magath, who had been staring at Hao on the sidelines, freeze!
Magath wasn't the only one.
Hughes, who was standing beside Magath, was also a bit stunned.
“Gaffer?Is this Hao .... Isn't it a bit different? That was a fucking beautiful ball to pass!”
Magath obviously hadn't gotten over it yet.
When did the unconfident Hao become so ....
At this time, Su, who was originally standing with Hao, was already directly accelerating, following Hao's right side, and rushing together towards Hannover's backfield.
