Green Journey

Chapter 23 An Unexplainable Magical Defense!
After the game restarted, Chu Zheng, who received an assist, was not overwhelmed by joy.

He restrained a lot, forcibly suppressed the strong desire to continue to play the ball forward and find those gaps.

That's not his primary responsibility.

Once or twice once in a while!

But if there are too many times, it is estimated that Gustavo and Jilavoji will be dissatisfied. The most important thing is that he is not sure yet.

So he decided to continue to develop obscenely, and wait for the magic skills to be completed before coming out.

But when the team occasionally needs to transfer from the backcourt, he no longer handed the ball to Naldo like in the previous two games, but made a long pass transfer by himself.

Under the pressure of the three forwards in Hoffenheim's 433 formation, Chu Zheng's long pass was quite satisfactory.

This also made Xu Yang and Liu Jianhong more firm in their views.

Dieter Heiking and Eddie on the sidelines also had the same opinion as them.

After all, the central defenders have the widest view of the field besides the goalkeeper. It is not unusual for Chu Zheng to see them.

But the key is the timing of this pass, which is so unusual.

But since Chu Zheng had never shown it before, Dieter Heijin and Eddie only thought that Chu Zheng was the blind cat who suddenly ran into a dead mouse.

Mourinho, who is far away at the Cobham training base in London, doesn't think so.

After finding out that he missed Chu Zheng, he immediately issued an order to Chelsea's scouts in Germany to conduct a long-term follow-up evaluation of Chu Zheng.

He himself would watch Chu Zheng's games when he had time.

Seeing Chu Zheng just sent a long pass that directly pierced Hoffenheim's midfield and defense, Mourinho looked surprised and helpless.

He didn't expect Chu Zheng to pick up the weakness of passing in just two months.

Neil Bass' words really came true!
Although it still can't meet the standard he needs, it has already passed the passing line.

Mourinho could tell that Chu Zheng was making rapid progress.

Perhaps it won't be long before people discover Chu Zheng's hidden super talent.

Seeing Dieter Heijin's use of Chu Zheng, Mourinho really wanted to hang up the phone and tell this guy that he was wasting Chu Zheng's talent.

It's a pity that he can't, he still wants to quietly buy Chu Zheng back in Dongchuang.

As for whether Chu Zheng would like to come back, he wasn't very worried.

The appeal of Stamford Bridge is still very strong.

In addition, Chu Zheng was from the Cobham Youth Academy, so he would be somewhat emotional, and the problem of sufficient money should not be a big problem by then.

After the intermission, the two sides did not adjust for the time being.

But Hoffenheim's style of play has changed.

They strengthened the pressing and interception in the midfield, trying to isolate Wolfsburg's attacking group in the frontcourt from the midfield.

In the opening 10 minutes of the second half, it made it difficult for the Wolfsburg midfielder to pass the ball forward, and the offensive was also contained.

With the passage of time, Hoffenheim gradually got rid of the passive situation by relying on continuous high-pressure pressing, and played offensive intermittently.

Chu Zheng was the first player to smell danger among all the players on Wolfs field.

But it's a pity that others are soft-spoken and unable to command other teammates like a commander, so they have to secretly watch out for the gap in the backcourt.

In the 70th minute of the game, Hoffenheim once again played the third wave of offensive in the second half.

Chu Zheng followed his side's ribs in the left half of the court, hunched sideways and retreated towards the penalty area at a constant speed, staring at Rudy who was advancing with the ball with a pair of peach blossom eyes.

Seeing that Chu Zheng didn't come up to grab it, Rudy played in his favor.

He knew that Chu Zheng was waiting for Rodriguez to return to the wing.

However, he was also waiting for his teammates, and the comparison at this time was whose reinforcements would come faster.

Two seconds later, Rodriguez who was waiting for Chu Zheng did not come back, but Firmino who was waiting for Rudy arrived.

After Firmino came up, he saw that there was a gap between Chu Zheng and Naldo standing on the left and right, so he immediately slanted behind Chu Zheng.

At this moment, Chu Zheng, who heard someone running behind him, suddenly moved sideways to the outside line, and then fell to the ground and slid the shovel.

On Rudy's side, after he passed the ball, he was startled by Chu Zheng's movements, so that a weak electric current ran through his body, making his whole body numb.

Because Chu Zheng's action was made at the moment when he passed the ball, the timing was so delicate that it was too late for him to stop.

The Hoffenheim fans at the scene were also stunned when they saw Chu Zheng's defensive action.

This kind of defensive action that I predicted your prediction is too rare in football, and almost every one will be remembered by the majority of fans.

Amidst the uproar, the ball hit Chu Zheng's left calf and bounced up. It still entered the penalty area from the upper corner of the penalty area and rolled in front of Firmino.

But Chu Zheng's interference directly caused Firmino to be on the sideline of the penalty area when he received the ball, blocking Naldo, who followed him all the way, and also cut off Firmino's connection with the center.

On Chu Zheng's side, after the interception failed, he pressed his hand on the lawn, then bounced off the ground, immediately started to follow Rudy who was running past him, and the two rushed towards the middle of the restricted area, one left and one right .

At the same time, Naldo and Firmino also scored the winner.

Naldo knew that he was slow to turn and start, so he didn't dare to get too close.

This allowed Firmino to seize the opportunity and suddenly made an inverted triangle cross.

Naldo raised his foot a little slower and had to watch the ball leave.

Outside the upper corner of the small restricted area on the left, Szaloy outflanked in time.

But Sebastian Rong was not slow, he cut off the connection between Shaolai and the middle lane in time.

Seeing that goalkeeper Benaglio completely blocked the near point, Szaloy did not choose to shoot directly.

Instead, he gave the ball away, then he turned to follow, and after taking the ball out of the penalty area, he quickly hit the rib area back.

Wolfsburg's defensive formation was a little messed up at this time.

There is no one in the rib area on the left side of the top of the arc, allowing Hoffenheim captain Baker to easily catch the ball.

Jilawoji was the closest to Baker, and he quickly rushed out of the penalty area.

But it was too late.

Seeing Beck's kick, he was forced to jump more than one meter away from Beck, trying to block the ball with his body.

At this moment, Chu Zheng suddenly left the team and retreated to the middle of the small penalty area.

This scene made countless fans who followed the game dumbfounded.

He had no idea what Chu Zheng was doing.

"What is this doing?"

"Is he going to mark Modeste who is offside behind the line?"

"Haha! Doesn't he know that Modeste is offside when he passes by?"

"Guys, this young player from Wolfsburg looks like an idiot!"

Countless people were talking about it, even Dieter Heijin and Eddie on the sidelines couldn't understand Chu Zheng's showmanship, including domestic Xu Yang, Liu Jianhong and fans.

But in the next second, almost 0.5 seconds after Chu Zheng retreated, a shocking change occurred on Baker and Jilawoji's side.

The ball passed by Baker rubbed against Gila Voji's scalp, and continued to fly upwards. Not only did it fly higher, but even the landing point that was originally near the penalty spot was also diverted because of Gila Voji's rubbing. Before moving, Naldo, Rodriguez and others were caught off guard.

And when people saw the ball falling towards Modeste, everyone immediately thought of Chu Zheng's strange idiot retreat.

boom!
At this moment, countless people's minds rumbled!
They get it!I understand Chu Zheng's intention to retreat early this time!

In the middle of the end line of the small penalty area, Modeste raised his foot sideways and prepared to volley.

But the moment he swung his left leg out, his ankle, which was almost as high as his chest, stretched out. With a mischievous shake of his ankle, he just cushioned the falling ball, and then flew out of the baseline from the top of the crossbar.

In front of the goal line, seeing Chu Zheng jumping and stretching his legs to walk away with the Bundesliga logo posture, Benalio's eyes were straight, and he looked a little silly.

Just like all the fans, he also thought that Chu Zheng was an idiot.

But now, iron-like facts have proved that he is an idiot.

Everyone is an idiot!

idiot!

"My God!"

"My God!!!"

"Oh My God!!!!"

In the on-site commentary seat, Stevenson, the commentator of Wolfsburg, held his head in his hands and repeatedly rattled his mouth. He was stunned.

At this moment, Stevenson didn't know how to explain Chu Zheng's miraculous defense this time!

Said that Chu Zheng predicted the future?

hell!He is not an idiot, saying such words that make the fans laugh.

"This!!"

"This is this!!!"

In the live broadcast room of the sports channel, Xu Yang and Liu Jianhong were also stuck. They also didn't know how to comment on Chu Zheng's miraculous rescue defense this time.

Surrounding the stands, nearly 30000 fans watched another must-go goal for the team to destroy Wolfsburg's No. 66. However, the sad thing is that they couldn't get angry at this time, and everyone felt chilly all over.

In just over ten seconds, Chu Zheng's defensive actions shocked them twice in a row.

This time even more bizarre!
But soon the slow motion replay will clear everyone up!
Replays use side-view footage outside the touchline on either side of the court.

From the camera, you can clearly see the moment when Hoffenheim captain Baker passed the ball. Sebastian Rong, who was on the far left side of the Wolfsburg side of the defense, was attracted and fell unconsciously. Behind the line of defense.

Therefore, Modeste behind Chu Zheng and the others seemed to be offside, but in fact he was not.

Seeing this replay, everyone was immediately relieved, and the sense of horror faded instantly.

However, their impression of Chu Zheng was even deeper!
Chu Zheng's early retreat can be said to be that he found that Modeste was not offside.

However, Jilavoji's touch caused the landing point to move forward, but it happened behind.

Many people thought that Chu Zheng was lucky enough to meet him.

But in the eyes of Dieter Heiking, Eddie, Guisdor, Mourinho and the players on the field, it is too wronged Chu Zheng to explain it only by luck.

This just proves that Chu Zheng is different, his superhuman sense of crisis and defensive awareness.

On the field, Naldo, Benalio, Gustavo, De Bruyne and others once again surrounded Chu Zheng, touching their heads one by one to express their gratitude to Chu Zheng.

In their eyes, this ball is equally terrifying!
"Chu! How did you find out that I was behind!" Sebastian Rong is still a little scared now. If he loses the ball, he will be a sinner.

"Look with your eyes!" Chu Zheng said cheerfully.

Immediately, everyone rolled their eyes and smiled even wider.

What Chu Zheng said was simple, but none of them saw it. At this moment, they were really convinced.

This is not the first time Chu Zheng has saved the team!

On the sidelines, Dieter Heijin was still applauding. He really convinced Chu Zheng.

At the same time, he also decided to give Chu Zheng a chance to start in the Europa League a few days later.

In the end, the game ended 1-0, Wolfsburg narrowly beat Hoffenheim and won three consecutive victories in a thrilling manner.

As Leverkusen, ranked number one, was tied 3-3 at home by Werder Bremen last night, Wolfsburg went ahead by two points and climbed to the top of the Bundesliga.

After the game, Chu Zheng, who was the MVP of three games in a row, was heavily reported by the German media, which further increased his reputation in Germany, no longer limited to Lower Saxony, and seemed to be a rising supernova in the Bundesliga.
