On 16 March, the Tübingen youth travelled to Braunschweig in Lower Saxony for the 25th round of the Bundesliga.Braunschweig now has 19 points and is in the relegation zone with Karlsruhe, Mannheim and St.
Pauli, with 21 points.In the first few rounds of the season, Braunschweig's performance was okay, at least in the middle of the league, but as the teams gradually entered the league state, Braunschweig fell all the way and firmly controlled the relegation places.Seeing that there are still ten rounds of the league to end, and judging from the points situation, Braunschweig has not been thrown away by the "difficult friends", and is still closely following, and there is still hope of relegation.And Tübingen Juniors, who lost 1:2 to Liverpool, seem to be on a downward trajectory?
After all, Tübingen Juniors have lost 29 games in the German Cup, UEFA Cup and Bundesliga so far, winning 25 of them, except for two losses in the first ten rounds of the season.But at Anfield, almost all spectators agreed that Tübingen's youth were in a slump throughout the game, and apart from the rare sight of the defence, the most mesmerizing and fluid attack was completely missing.The German media "Kicker" also lamented that German football is really in decline.There was not a single German team in the quarter-finals of this year's UEFA Champions League.In the round of 16 of the UEFA Cup, there were originally Stuttgart and Hertha Berlin in the Bundesliga and Tübingen in the Bundesliga, but unfortunately after two games, Stuttgart and Hertha Berlin lost one after another, and in the final eight, only one German team was left in Tübingen.This is a completely unexpected result, but it is also the last hope for German football to maintain face.Because of this, German politicians, football celebrities and several social groups have chosen to shut up after attacking the "transitional policy" of Tübingen's youth.But now it's good, Tübingen has also lost!
The Kicker magazine editorial gave Braunschweig the courage to challenge the leader.Just finished a hard-fought away game, the Tübingen people shouldn't have recovered yet, right?
So under the leadership of head coach Wu Wei, Braunschweig played offensive football, and was tough enough to bite the lion when he was napping.The people of Tübingen were a little surprised by the sudden exuberant self-confidence of Braunschweig, and then came to their senses: this is to see how bullying we are!
Although the defeat to Liverpool in the last game did not frustrate the players much, it is very satisfying to be able to get to this situation.But it's understandable to lose to Liverpool or to KOFs, but Braunschweig also dares to take us seriously?
Tübingen, three wins ahead of second-place on points, is no longer the team that struggled to survive relegation at the beginning of the season.So, the Tübingen youth decided to teach their opponents a lesson.In the first half, with the strong support of the front line, Lao Bai completed a hat trick.In the second half, Lao Bai reciprocated, assisting Wang Ai and Ozil respectively, and also gave Qu Bo an assist at the end, and won two hat tricks in one fell swoop.In the final stage of the game, in the face of the beaten Braunschweig, Luo Tongliang, who assisted, scored one, and in the last minute of stoppage time, Mertesacker grabbed the point to score the last goal of the game.8:0！
Not only is it the most goal scored in the Bundesliga this season, but Tübingen also kept a rare clean sheet.With a big victory, the young people of Tübingen declared the unshakable position of the leader and warned all their opponents who were ready to move: We are still strong!
And this big win also created a bigger suspense for the next home game against Liverpool.After all, although I lost the last game, it was only a small defeat by one goal, and I also got an away goal, so I still have a chance no matter how I count it.And this big win has brought the Tübingen back to form, and the fluid attacking organization is still there.Compared with the big victory of the Tübingen people, in the 30th round of the Premier League, Liverpool barely beat Tottenham 3:2.There is a clear gap between the two teams' competitive form.So, after the Tübingen returned to the club after a night in Braunschweig, the vice president of the German Football Association, Beckenbauer, set off from Munich and quietly visited.The last time Beckenbauer visited was a year ago in March, when Tübingen Youth were making a big splash in the German Cup as an amateur team, and he was intrigued by Tübingen's tactical play.The Tübingenians asked him for a one-year transition period from that visit, and although he did not visit again, he became more closely connected with the youth of Tübingen because of this transition period.He advocates the policy of opening up foreign aid, and there are other groups of people in German football who oppose the policy of opening up foreign aid, each with their own reasons.So how well the youth of Tübingen performs has a lot to do with Beckenbauer's claims.Since German teams were eliminated from the Champions Cup and the UEFA Cup, Tübingen's youth with a one-year transition period have become the last fig leaf for German football.Not only have the attacks against the youth of Tübingen disappeared, but even the attacks on the "transitional period" granted by Beckenbauer have disappeared.It is clear that without the "transition period" that Beckenbauer strongly advocated, the powerful camouflage of German football would now be naked and humiliated.After the defeat in the last game, criticism of the Tübingen youth resumed, and there was a tendency to spread to Beckenbauer, but the Tübingen people immediately reconfirmed their strength in Braunschweig, and Beckenbauer could not sit still.He needs to come and cheer up the young people of Tübingen to make it to the semi-finals.German football, known as one of the five major leagues, has won a place in the last four to match its status.According to UEFA rules, the league ranking will determine the number of places for each league to participate in the Champions League and the League Cup.It's too dangerous for the Germans to allow their home league to be dropped off the top five.Therefore, Beckenbauer's visit is a matter of public and private affairs, and he needs to discuss more things with the people of Tübingen, the most important of which is the transition period next year.The people of Tübingen are desperate to know if there will be a transition period for Tübingen next season.The Tübingen first team is developing too fast, the echelon has not yet caught up, and if the transition period cannot be postponed, most of the main players in the team will be lost, then the Tübingen youth will have to undergo a painful rebuild.And rebuilding immediately after promotion to the Bundesliga is undoubtedly the way to die.Unless Beyond Sports allocates a large amount of money to buy the best players in Germany, even if there is money, it may not be able to buy them.Wang Ai and the club are well aware that as the trend of Tübingen's youth being promoted to the Bundesliga is becoming more and more obvious, the power of exclusion from German football is also increasing.()
