Chapter 180 Happiness Comes only when There Is Contrast

0 to 2!

The St. Pauli fans in the stands kept shouting and celebrating excitedly.

This is the first game in the Bundesliga.

Returning to the Bundesliga after many years, what St. Pauli can do is full of uncertainty, but the media's comments before the game are still of reference value. St. Pauli is optimistic about ranking fourteenth.

This ranking is already pretty good compared to the 'Second Promoted Horse of the Second Bundesliga', but the overall ranking is still at the bottom after all.

It's not just about the squad, it's about the preparation of the club.

Before the start of last season, Bochum was a team that was expected to be promoted. During the season, they have been preparing for the promotion of the Bundesliga. Lineup adjustment is one aspect. When facing the Bundesliga, the overall style of play and mentality are also important. Much better than St. Pauli.

St. Pauli was different.

In the middle of last season, they were still working hard to avoid relegation. Even though their results continued to rise, they did not expect to be able to successfully complete the promotion. After the sudden completion of the promotion, it will definitely bring great joy, but the club is not prepared enough for this, and there is no time. , Funds to prepare.

Even if the financial situation is better, you can only add one or two more players, which is really useless.

In the St. Pauli lineup, many players have followed from the Bundesliga. Even if they play in the Bundesliga, it is not easy for them to perform well.

Under such circumstances, St. Pauli will naturally not be favored.

St. Pauli fans also know more or less. Their only expectation is that St. Pauli can successfully avoid relegation.

The first round is an away game. It is not easy to beat Leverkusen. The fans hope to get off to a good start, but they feel that it is worth celebrating if they can draw. They did not expect that the team will take the lead after only halftime. Two goals, the hero is naturally Zhen Shaolong who scored two goals.

Many fans couldn't help shouting Zhen Shaolong's name.

"Zhen!"

"Come on! Zhen!"

"Good job!"

Under the shouts of fans one by one, Zhen Shaolong was surrounded by his teammates, everyone cheered and celebrated together, everyone's face was full of excitement and joy.

Not to mention the unexpectedness of the fans, as players on the field, they all feel very happy.

This game is not a tailwind.

Zhen Shaolong helped the team score two goals, which is entirely a performance of individual ability, and has nothing to do with the overall performance of the team. Most of the time in football, Leverkusen is still controlled at the feet, and can take advantage of extremely limited opportunities to lead by two goals. The opponent is really an unexpected situation.

————

Some are happy and some are unhappy.

Leverkusen was so depressed that they wanted to vomit blood. They had most of the advantage, but the opponent scored one after another. When facing the camera lens, the head coach Skibe could only shake his head and smile wryly.

What else could he do?

Leverkusen did not play badly, and their defense was relatively successful, but no matter how tight the defense was, it was impossible to be impenetrable. The opponent seized limited opportunities and scored two goals.

The only thing Skibe can do is to boost the morale of the team and continue to play hard.

Waiting for time to enter the intermission, Skibe did the same. He didn't talk about the score on the field, nor did he talk about the adjustment of tactics. The only thing he talked about was Zhen Shaolong.

The team fell behind by two goals and their morale suffered a blow, and the reason was also attributed to Zhen Shaolong.

"I believe that no player can be so good that he can't defend."

"Our strategy is not wrong, and Paul (Fryer)'s defense is also good, but the opponent is in a good state and has seized a few rare opportunities. But this state cannot continue."

"If he can keep performing so well, St. Pauli will probably lose him soon..."

Skibe shrugged his shoulders as he spoke. Some antics made the players laugh, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly relaxed a lot.

Zhen Shaolong is just a player of St. Pauli.

If he can keep performing so well, St. Pauli will definitely not be able to keep him.

It's interesting to think about it. Although they still have to face Zhen Shaolong, they are a bit chilled by the opponent's efficiency, but after relaxing, the players didn't feel anything.

The opponent's efficiency is very high, but technical and physical defects are also obvious.

Just don't give him a chance!

Skibe's method of boosting morale is still very helpful. Leverkusen's strength is definitely no problem. The main reason is that Zhen Shaolong scored two goals, and his state efficiency is too amazing.

After they relax, it's actually nothing to think about.

The goal of the game is to score goals, but shooting is not the only key. When you have a strength advantage, you can suppress the opponent to find no chance, and you can't even attack. No matter how efficient a single player is, it doesn't make sense.

They did the same in the second half, and they did pretty well.

Leverkusen played waves of wonderful offensives, so that St. Pauli could only defend passively. If they want to attack, they can only rely on occasional counterattacks. But because there are not many players involved, there is no chance at all in front. More Sometimes, even if he grabs the ball, he can't pass it to the frontcourt at all.

When St. Pauli advanced, it was still difficult to have a chance ahead.

One is that it is very difficult to cooperate to pass the ball near the penalty area, and the other is that Leverkusen attaches great importance to Zhen Shaolong's defense in the backcourt. As long as Zhen Shaolong stands in front, it is impossible to receive the ball.

The only way for teammates to send the ball to Zhen Shaolong is the high-altitude ball.

High-altitude balls are based on luck.

It can be said that Zhen Shaolong has no advantage in grabbing high-altitude balls. Even with the "Golden Body" skill, he can be a "Desperate Saburo", but his skills can't make up for his weakness in confrontation. When he should miss it, he still can't grab it. As far as fighting head-on, he really doesn't have many options.

In the seventy-seventh minute of the game, Leverkusen striker Barbarets used the front of the goal to grab a volley to help the team get back a goal.

After that, Leverkusen continued to launch an offensive, hoping to tie the score, but the more time came to the end, St. Pauli paid more attention to defense.

fall back.

Shrink formation.

St. Pauli even gave up attacking, and a large group of players piled up in the penalty area.

In the end, St. Pauli relied on defense and did not allow Leverkusen to score again. With two goals in the first half, they won the first round of the league.

The media described the game as, "Leverkusen is an honor to lose."

Leverkusen played a good game throughout the game, especially in the second half. Unfortunately, they fell behind in the score. Football games are like this. Whether the situation is good or not means that they can win, the score is the most important thing.

With two goals, Zhen Shaolong became the core player of the first round of reports in the Bundesliga, and various reports came out one after another--

"Leverkusen VS St. Pauli: Zhen Shaolong shines perfectly at halftime!"

"The first time I landed in the Bundesliga, I scored two goals! Who dares to say that Chinese geniuses are not used to the Bundesliga!"

"St. Pauli's core shooter is still super efficient!"

"..."

The discussion in the media made the fans talk a lot, and at the same time made other league opponents vigilant.

It would be too dangerous to allow Zhen Shaolong to play in the backcourt when playing against St. Pauli. His scoring efficiency is too high, and a chance may be converted into a goal.

Amidst all kinds of praise, the Bundesliga soon ushered in the second round.

St. Pauli host Borussia Monchengladbach.

St. Pauli fans are still looking forward to the first home game. The auditorium at the Miller Gate Stadium is quickly crowded with fans. They all expect the team to win the home game.

If they can win two consecutive rounds, the team's situation will be very good.

In such a high-profile game, St. Pauli lost, and the process of losing was still very depressed. Borussia Mönchengladbach scored two goals in a row at the beginning.

Borussia Mönchengladbach seemed to be going crazy. They scored another goal at the end of the first half and entered the midfield with a three-goal lead.

In the second half, St. Pauli regained morale and improved a lot. In the 51st minute, Zhen Shaolong also helped the team recover a goal.

In the 68th minute, Albrecht pushed a shot from the penalty area to help the team recover the second goal.

So much for the goal.

In the remaining time, Borussia Mönchengladbach defended solidly and dragged the score to the last minute. In the end, they defeated St. Pauli in the away game.

Bergman lost his temper after the game, because the team lost at the beginning, the defense was chaotic for a while, the opponent scored two goals, and the game was played at home, one can imagine how depressed he felt.

The team canceled its only vacation.

After a week of continuous training, St. Pauli ushered in the third round and challenged Hannover 96 away.

It's a dull game.

Hannover 96 seems to have little fighting spirit, or put all their energy on defense. St. Pauli can play an advantage in the away game, which is quite remarkable. Unfortunately, facing the opponent's iron barrel formation, even Zhen Shaolong has no good way .

The final game ended 0-0.

St. Pauli won one, drew and lost in three rounds, and ranked in the middle of the league with four points. It can be regarded as the past results. The mentality of the players after the game is good.

Zhen Shaolong is the special one.

He once again became a man of the hour, and was highlighted by the media. The news reported was neither good nor bad, but some statements were still very annoying--

"Hannover helped the Bundesliga team and found a way to deal with Zhen Shaolong!"

"Zhen Shaolong's efficiency in front of the goal is very high, but his technical flaws are very obvious, his physical confrontation ability is poor, and his skills are also very average. He needs the support of his teammates to perform well. As long as he cuts off his contact with his teammates, he can effectively stop him. Performance."

"Such a player can only shine in the lower leagues, but in the top leagues, as long as he finds the right defense, he can't perform well..."

Summing up the comments in the media, it seemed that Zhen Shaolong would never expect to perform well in the future, or even to score goals.

This is where it gets annoying.

In fact, it is normal for the media to conduct targeted reports. Don’t think that Zhen Shaolong has much support in Germany. His reputation is only reflected in the St. Pauli fan group. Other media and fans have no reason to support him. On the contrary, I hope his performance will get worse and worse.

The reason is simple: he is a foreign aid.

Germany is a big football country in Europe. Its technical strength is among the best in the world. The Bundesliga is also one of the top leagues in the world. German fans naturally have a kind of inner arrogance. They don't want to see a player from another country, or a player from the desert Players from Football Nation have performed very well in the Bundesliga, even surpassing German geniuses.

Zhen Shaolong performed extremely well, and the media couldn't find any problems, so they would naturally praise him.

Now that Zhen Shaolong didn't score a goal, criticism came one after another, and the media helped to make suggestions. Everyone became a defensive expert, telling St. Pauli's opponents how to defend against Zhen Shaolong.

Zhen Shaolong told himself that he must have a mature heart and deal with the reports calmly, but he was still very angry in his heart. In fact, he didn't care about the negative reports in the media.

For example, it was previously reported that he has a weird personality and likes women's peak masks and the like.

It doesn't matter.

The football game is a professional field, and it is the purpose of all his efforts. If the goal of his efforts is not recognized, what is the point of his continuing to work hard? But thinking about it, Zhen Shaolong felt much better.

"These Germans are scared!"

"It is precisely because they are afraid that they continue to analyze me and make various reports, otherwise they would not report at all..."

"For example, the first brother is also a striker. The newly joined Cottbus has also entered the Bundesliga, but his name is not mentioned in the media..."

When Zhen Shaolong thought of Shao Jiayi, his mood immediately improved a lot.

I'm a little sorry for Shao Jiayi.

However, this is the way to be a human being. Only when there is comparison can there be happiness! First brother, let's make a sacrifice for you!

————

After the match against Hannover 96, Zhen Shaolong finally had a vacation, and he decided to take advantage of the time to take a good rest.

It wasn't so tiring last season.

St. Pauli has also experienced game after game, but the confrontation is not so fierce, and he will not face such a severe defense. It is different in the Bundesliga. In the official game, Zhen Shaolong will take time to rest, but after 90 minutes, Still feeling exhausted.

Every time in the last twenty minutes, he felt that he couldn't run at all.

Insufficient fitness is a big problem.

Zhen Shaolong doesn't know what the average physical fitness is in the Bundesliga, but according to his own experience, if he wants to persist in high-intensity games, the endurance attribute must also exceed 65 points, right?

He's still a lot worse.

"It would be great if there were more tasks. Endurance is more important than strength." Zhen Shaolong sighed.

If the strength is increased, the effect is not very obvious, but the effect of endurance is too obvious. It can directly improve physical fitness, and if you maintain a good state for a longer time, you will definitely be able to perform better.

After a night's rest, I woke up at eight o'clock in the morning.

Zhen Shaolong seldom got up so late, he dragged his tired body, saw the busy figure in the kitchen, couldn't help but smile, walked over quietly, just wanted to have an early morning kiss.

Unfortunately, it was rejected.

Claudio immediately pushed his hand away, pouted and said dissatisfiedly, "Don't do this! I've been through it several times. What happened last time was just an accident. We shouldn't continue."

"You are too young, a few years younger than me. Besides, I will not date a weird person. I am just your nanny. If you do this again, I will quit my job."

"..."

Zhen Shaolong was a bit helpless with Claudio, he didn't even understand what this woman was thinking.

Seeing Zhen Shaolong walk out of the kitchen, Claudio pouted and looked at it several times, with a bit of distress on his face. In fact, what she said were all excuses. The important thing is that she felt that she was not good enough for Zhen Shaolong.

She is just a model at the bottom, and now she can't even work as a model, so she just works as a nanny.

Zhen Shaolong is a big star with unlimited future.

Many people like Zhen Shaolong.

Although he didn't say anything on the surface, but women's sixth sense is very accurate. Claudio knows that not only Lisa, but also Alice is interested in Zhen Shaolong. He usually acts like a strong woman, but in fact it is to show strength , Compared with them, what is he worth?

Claudio felt very lucky, she couldn't help thinking of Ramona, Ramona also liked Zhen Shaolong, earlier than herself.

and then?

She can only go home.

"If Ramona knew that Zhen and I slept together, I would definitely be very envious..." Claudio felt a small sense of accomplishment in his heart.

After breakfast was over, Zhen Shaolong sat on the sofa and watched the news. Claudio cleaned up the room and turned on the computer next to her. She found a sense of accomplishment again on a piece of the latest popular social software. Its name is face Book.

In June, Facebook made a big publicity in Europe and confirmed that it was open to all European Internet users. Facebook, which had been famous only in universities, suddenly became famous all over the world, attracting many new users.

Claudio is one of them.

After being recommended by Alice to formally register as a Facebook user, and knowing that the previous Facebook users were all college students from major institutions of higher learning, Claudio felt that his social networking seemed to be a higher level than before.

For example, her model friends know that Facebook will not register.

She signed up.

Not only did Claudio sign up, he posted a ton of photos.

Beauties on the Internet are always welcome, and Claudio immediately received a lot of attention, and various passing netizens gave likes, comments and support.

This is where Claudio's sense of accomplishment comes from.

"Zhen, my Facebook account already has hundreds of fans!" Claudio showed off excitedly, "A few people commented just now, saying that I am very beautiful, not worse than a female star..."

"Oh."

Zhen Shaolong replied weakly, he really felt very tired, and at the same time, he didn't think it was surprising to register a Facebook account with hundreds of followers.

Claudio pouted a little disappointed.

Zhen Shaolong gave her a thumbs up, which was the only support he could do. When he commented, he would probably say, "What's so great about that?"

You can't discourage women's enthusiasm!

But Zhen Shaolong regained his energy immediately, because he received a system prompt--

"Hint: There are new system tasks triggered.

The host needs to register a Facebook account and be followed by more than 10,000 people.

Task rewards: a little endurance index, a little appearance evaluation. "

Zhen Shaolong was a little dazed looking at the task. It was the first time he had received the task of 'registering an account' and 'attracting attention', and the task rewards were very generous.

But……

"This task should be easy for me, right?"
