Champion’s Heart

v3 Chapter 24: Meet old friends

   Sure enough, just three days before the start of the league, Klopp announced that the team had a day off.

  

   Although only one day, but for Dortmund players is also a rare opportunity to relax.

  

  Zhou Yidu slept at home before getting up, then washed out and set off for the city of Gelsenkirchen near Dortmund.

  

  Dortmund and Gelsenkirchen are completely two cities, but they are not far apart. According to Zhou Yi's understanding, in China, these two cities should be two districts of a city.

  

   But in Germany, these are two cities, very close to each other, but they have a lot of grievances.

  

In addition to going to the game, Zhou Yi has never taken the initiative to go to Gelsenkirchen. This time it was because Yang Muge was training there. They met for lunch together. After training, he hurried to Dortmund.

  

   For Chinese fans, Schalke 04 is a very familiar name, but the name Gelsenkirchen is a little strange. Many people don't even know which city Schalke 04 is in, and some even think it is in the city of Schalke.

  

   Schalke 04 is good in Schalke, but Schalke is not a city, but a district. The city where Schalke 04 is located is called Gelsenkirchen, and Schalke is a district of this city.

  

   Because of football, Schalke is famous all over the world, and Gelsenkirchen is not so famous. But in fact Gelsenkirchen is a very famous city in history, because this is Germany's famous coal producing area. During the prosperity of mining, 60 coal mines were put into production here. Numerous blast furnaces, coke ovens and steel mills gave Gelsenkirchen a city of fire.

  

   Sounds cool, right?

  

   Today, with the decline of the mining industry, Gelsenkirchen has closed most of the coal mines.

  

  The transition period of German industry is most obvious in industrial cities like Gelsenkirchen and Dortmund.

  

  Gelsenkirchen was once the city with the highest unemployment rate in Germany for ten years, and Dortmund next door is not much better.

  

   But now that both cities have completed the transformation, a large number of coal miners have disappeared, or retired. Or switch to other jobs, such as the service industry.

  

   But the traditional culture of the working class is still perfectly preserved in football.

  

  Football was originally a movement of the working class, whether in Scotland or Germany. The miners are the main players in football. The industry can be transformed, but the football culture continues in one line and continues. Even if the people here no longer continue to work in the coal industry, their love for football has not changed because of industrial transformation.

  

  Even after the decline of the coal mining industry, the culture of the working class carried by football is more and more important. People in the two cities have pinned their memories of the past on football, which has become the best carrier to prove that these coal workers have been brilliant.

  

So these two cities are particularly crazy about football. How loyal the Dortmund fans are. The south stands are proof, and the Schalke 04 fans are not obedient. The biggest record holder in European football stadium decibels is Sha Fans of Erke 04, in a game in 2007, after the team scored, more than 60,000 fans collectively cheered up to 129 decibels.

  

  Because of this, the most popular derby in German football is not the Munich Derby of Bayern Munich and Munich 1860, nor the German national derby of Bayern Munich and Dortmund. It's Dortmund and Schalke 04's Ruhr Derby. This derby is even famous in the world of football.

  

   Because the two cities are so similar in terms of geographic location and fan culture.

  

Zhou Yi arrived in Gelsenkirchen from Dortmund by car. From the city itself, he did not feel that the two cities were different, but after arriving in Gelsenkirchen, the blue and white were obviously better than In Dortmund, there are many more, and in Dortmund, the most commonly seen are yellow and black.

  

   This difference reminds Zhou Yi that he has come to a city that is hostile to Dortmund, and he has to be careful not to recognize the opponent's fans. So he took out his sunglasses from his pocket and put it on.

  

   However, Zhou Yi was obviously too worried. Even in the Schalke district of Gelsenkirchen, no one could recognize Zhou Yilai at all. People here are more concerned about Schalke 04, which is disdainful to Dortmund players.

  

  Zhou Yi's sunglasses are useless except that the sunlight reflected on the ground is less dazzling.

  

   In the agreed restaurant, Zhou Yi just sat down for ten minutes, and saw Yang Muge pushing in the door and looking away.

  

   "Here!" Zhou Yi raised his hand and greeted. Yang Muge came to prestige and smiled after seeing Zhou Yi.

  

   "I really deserve to be a big star." Yang Muge walked over and sat across from Zhou Yi and said, "I must pretend to be dressed and wear sunglasses."

  

   "Where!" Zhou Yi quickly waved his hands, took off his sunglasses, and said solemnly. "I'm afraid of being beaten! This is the "enemy zone"!"

  

   "Then shall I send you to the public security agency?" Yang Muge said with a sullen face.

  

   "Lao Yang, I believe you are not the kind of person who sells friends and seeks glory!" Zhou Yi said righteously.

  

  Yang Muge didn't hold back, smiled, and then looked up and down Zhou Yi: "Well, it's dark and strong."

  

   "From the change of my appearance, you know what day I have spent this time? It is hell!" Zhou Yi wailed on the table.

  

   "I heard that Klopp is a head coach with particularly strict training requirements..."

  

   "Not just strict? It is harsh! I tell you, do you know how we train? Three exercises a day, three exercises a day! And every day!" Zhou Yi complained.

  

   heard "three exercises a day." Yang Muge also moved such training intensity, whether in the first team of Schalke 04 or the youth team, there is no.

  

   "Is it easy to want to be a professional player, Zhou Yi."

  

   "Yeah, yeah. Hey, how are you, how long can you go to the first team?" Zhou Yi asked.

  

   "I just went to u19, the first team is too early for me..."

  

   "So how do you feel? Do you always have a position for yourself? In u19, how do you feel about your strength?" Zhou Yi asked.

  

   "After a few warm-up matches, I feel pretty good. My task is relatively simple, it is to intercept in the midfield. Unlike you, it is responsible for organizing the attack."

  

   "Hi, your job is not easy. Defensive is a difficult job." Since training under Klopp, Zhou Yi deeply recognized the difficulty and importance of defense. Klopp asked every player. Both forwards and midfielders must participate in defense. Therefore, Zhou Yi, a player who had never defended before, also had to start to participate in the defense on the court. His feelings were very deep, and defense was much more difficult than he had imagined before.

  

   The two were chatting hotly, and there was a waiter. With two menus in his hand: "Excuse me, two gentlemen, what do you want to eat?"

  

   The two of them remembered that they hadn't ordered their food yet, and they came to chat as soon as they came in!

  

  Zhou Yi patted his head and smiled.

  

   Yang Muge also smiled, took the menu, and distributed it to Zhou Yi.

  

   The two people quickly selected the food to eat on the menu. In fact, what they eat is not important. They come together mainly for chatting, as long as they can fill their stomachs. The taste says the past.

  

   quickly ordered a meal, sent the waiter, and the two chatted again.

  

   "Look, the waiter didn't recognize you, so you don't have to worry about being beaten." Yang Muge teased.

  

   Zhou Yi grinned: "I found Lao Yang has changed a lot since you came to Germany. Do you like inserting a knife now..."

  

  Yang Muge said with a smile: "Who made you the best among the five of us now, and he is a big fan. Who will do if you don't target?"

  

   Yang Muge said Zhou Yi was interested in this matter: "Yes, how are they?"

  

   "The grandson is in Chelsea, do you know?"

  

   "Well. I know." Zhou Yi nodded.

  

"He is still in u17, but he has already played the main role in u17. But he wants to play in the first team is difficult, let's not say that the first team's main goalkeeper is Cech, that the problem of labor certification is that he can't get around child."

  

   "This is...so I don't actually recommend him to go to the club of the Premier League. What about Lao Guo?"

  

   "Lao Guo's u18 at Inter Milan. I also played the game."

  

   "He speaks Italian... is he still stuttering?" Zhou Yi muttered to his chin.

  

   "Hei Lao Guo again." Yang Muge smiled.

  

   "No no no..." Zhou Yi recovered and quickly waved his hand, "Not intentionally."

  

   Yang Muge nodded and said with a smile: "I know you are not intentional, you are completely subconsciously black, is the conditioned reflex to hear the name Lao Guo."

  

   "Well, let's not mention this. What's the shadow?"

  

Yang Muge spread his hands: "I am not very familiar with He Ying, so I don't know his current situation. However, when he first went to La Masia, there were media reports in China for a while. Has been unanimously endorsed by La Masia coach."

  

   "Normal, he is a very talented person. If it is not good to continue to stay in the country, domestic football is not very helpful to his progress." Zhou Yi nodded and analyzed. "It's also good to go to La Masia, but I don't know how long he can play in the first team. His problem is similar to that of Sun Pan. There are too many first team stars and the competition is too intense..."

  

   "So among the few of us, you have already been put on the first team, who are not your targets?"

  

   "Eh? Hey, why did it turn to me again?" Zhou Yi protested, and he immediately changed the subject. "Right, Lao Yang, do you usually go to q more often?"

  

   "Not too much, I don't like internet chat very much."

  

"Oh, I don’t really like it either. But I think we are abroad, what other convenient and cheaper way of contact than qq? Calling can only be one-to-one, not one-to-many. So I was thinking, Otherwise, let’s build a group and pull them in. You can also keep in touch for a long time, so that you don’t even know everyone’s current situation. If you have anything, you can help you come up with an idea. What do you think? "

  

   Yang Muge thought carefully, and then nodded: "I'm fine."

  

"Yeah, I thought about it carefully. The two of us are close, and we can meet each other from time to time, but it is also impossible to meet too often. You and I have to train, right? No one else can even meet. But In a group, even if I wasn’t online at the time, I said something, you can still see it after you go online. If you have something to talk about, if you have nothing to chat about, it’s good."

  

   Yang Muge nodded again and again~lightnovelpub.net~He had been persuaded by Zhou Yi.

  

   "That's it, I will build a group when I go back. Do you have their qq number?" Zhou Yi asked.

  

   "I have. Let me build it." Yang Muge said.

  

   "Alright."

  

   is talking about it, serving, Zhou Yiduan is holding a glass of juice: "Come on, for our reunion on the Internet, cheers!"

  

   "Cheers." Yang Muge also picked up the glass, and the two glasses collided lightly, making a crisp sound.

  Ps, if there are no accidents, resume the double change tomorrow!

  

However, to discuss something with you, I plan to learn about the fuse mechanism of the stock market. In order to ensure the preservation and quality of the manuscript, as long as the number of manuscripts stored in the book is less than ten chapters, it is necessary to temporarily change one day and wait until the manuscript is restored to ten chapters The above will resume the double change.

  

   Actually, I have 14 chapters now. But why didn't the double-changer resume when the tenth chapter was reached...

  

  Because I still owe the three chapters of the leader, Gauguin, so I have to save them.

  

   It is just enough to save the manuscript in Chapter 14.

  

   Tomorrow, there will be a chapter for the leader to add more on the basis of the double change! The day after tomorrow is still a double change, and a chapter is added to the leader of the leader, until the leader is repaid.

  

   Three days in a row and three chapters in a row, can be considered as a gift for the Chinese New Year in advance, I hope everyone laughs! (To be continued)【】
