Five minutes ago, both Hoffenheim players and fans felt that they were basically sure to win the game.
Unexpectedly, the situation changed suddenly and Wolfsburg equalized the score just 5 minutes later.
The head of the German sports television station was even more grateful that they chose this game for live broadcast. Wolfsburg's recent state and firepower are indeed extraordinary.
From now on, it doesn’t matter whether the game ends in a draw, Hoffenheim takes the lead again, or Wolfsburg completes a reversal.
A game with 4 goals is bound to not disappoint neutral fans.
The people at the TV station don’t care, but how could Lu Wenbin not care
He wants the experience of winning!
What's more, there is the China-Japan showdown between him and Hasebe Makoto.
Although he had seen through Hasebe Makoto's sinister scheme after being reminded by the head coach, it did not mean that he no longer cared.
If given the chance, he wouldn't mind scoring a world-class goal in front of Hasebe Makoto to prove the opponent's defense had failed.
In the following game, Hoffenheim's other players were a little dazed after scoring two goals in five minutes, and were almost suppressed by Wolfsburg.
Having scored two goals in a row, Wolfsburg's morale was naturally boosted, and they wanted to make a final push and score another goal to complete a major reversal.
However, luck is very important on the court.
In the 77th minute, Wolfsburg's luck ran out after Wolfsburg striker Klinovic's powerful long shot from outside the penalty area hit the goal frame and bounced out.
Hoffenheim's players finally came to their senses and began to counterattack.
As the strongest team in the Bundesliga, how could they be suppressed by Wolfsburg, the seventh-placed team, at their home ground and almost be reversed by their opponent
Not only the midfielders, but also the two full-backs pressed forward and launched an attack against Wolfsburg.
Now it depends on who scores first.
Lu Wenbin, on the other hand, kept running without the ball by suddenly changing direction and running back and forth, without sparing any energy.
Moreover, he ran faster, covered a wider range, and changed directions more suddenly than before the score was tied.
Lu Wenbin wanted to shake off Hasebe Makoto, who was like a thorn in his side, and get a chance to shoot.
After his physique was increased to 16/16 and he passed the coaching staff's rotation policy, Lu Wenbin now has the energy to sprint back and forth even in the final stages of a competition.
Hasebe Makoto was on the defensive after all, so he was somewhat passive when running with Lu Wenbin. He ran a longer distance than Lu Wenbin and was more tired.
When Lu Wenbin increased his speed and the frequency of his shuttle runs, Hasebe Makoto gradually couldn't keep up.
In the 83rd minute, Lu Wenbin finally broke away from Hasebe Makoto and received a quick pass from Eduardo in the penalty area, ready to shoot.
Hasebe Makoto, who arrived a step later, was horrified. Without time to think, he threw his whole body out, trying to block the gun hole and stop Lu Wenbin's shot.
As a result, this time Lu Wenbin did not shoot immediately. His right foot changed from shooting to dribbling the ball to the left.
Lu Wenbin's fake shot and real dunk not only knocked Hasebe Makoto to the ground, but also made the goalkeeper fall to the ground.
It was really because Lu Wenbin’s previous goal efficiency was too high. As long as he got the ball and made a shooting motion in the penalty area, it was very scary.
After dribbling the ball, Lu Wenbin did not waste any time. He immediately pushed the ball with his left foot, pushing it in the opposite direction of the goalkeeper.
Another defender in the penalty area, Costa, tried to kick the ball but failed because the distance was too close.
The ball rolled past his feet, and he stretched his feet into position, but was unable to poke the ball.
The ball went into the net smoothly. Although the goalkeeper tried his best to turn around and rush back, he failed to stop the ball in the end.
In the 83rd minute, Lu Wenbin scored his first goal of the game, and it was a crucial goal that decided the game.
Hoffenheim regained the lead with a score of 3-2.
The CCTV commentator shouted excitedly: "The ball went in. Lu Wenbin finally scored in the 83rd minute of the game! A goal at this point in time was almost the final word. In the direct confrontation with Hasebe Makoto, Lu Wenbin got an assist and a goal, and helped Hoffenheim regain the lead with a score of 3-2. In this East Asian derby, there is no doubt that Lu Wenbin won!"
On the court, Lu Wenbin, who knocked Hasebe Makoto to the ground and successfully shot in front of him to score a goal, was also very excited. He turned around and rushed to the sidelines to celebrate with his teammates.
After the celebration, Lu Wenbin walked back to his own half and looked at Hasebe Makoto, who had fallen to the ground and was covered in mud, with a victorious smile on his face.
Hasebe Makoto gritted his teeth but was unable to make any response.
Because he said in the first half that he would not let Lu Wenbin score a goal, but now Lu Wenbin has slapped him in the face with a goal and he can't fight back.
…
It was already the 83rd minute when Lu Wenbin scored, and after celebrating for a while it was already the 84th minute.
There is little time left now. Lu Wenbin's goal not only suppressed Wolfsburg's counterattack momentum, but also stabilized Hoffenheim's morale, almost settling the matter once and for all.
Of course, whether it is really the final word depends on whether Wolfsburg can equalize the score in the next few minutes.
After the game resumed, Wolfsburg was naturally unwilling to accept defeat and launched a final Jedi counterattack.
Even Hasebe Makoto felt a little self-deprecating and thought that he and Lu Wenbin had already lost the China-Japan duel, so he might as well join the attack and see if he could help score a goal in the frontcourt to equalize the score.
Anyway, we are behind now, it’s either life or death.
Hasebe Makoto's move made Lu Wenbin lose his guard immediately, and Lu Wenbin and his teammates naturally would not waste this excellent opportunity.
Lu Wenbin, who has become the Bundesliga's top scorer, now has to find a game where no one is specifically marking him, but this is very rare and he must seize the opportunity.
Without someone specifically marking him, Lu Wenbin's 19/19 off-ball movement is even more difficult to defend against.
In the 88th minute, just as Hasebe Makoto rushed up to participate in the attack, Wolfsburg's pass in the frontcourt was intercepted. Hoffenheim reached Wolfsburg's half through three quick passes. Hasebe Makoto and others had no time to return to defense.
Lu Wenbin pressed the back line, and at the moment when Salihovic made a through pass, he accelerated towards the opponent's penalty area tacitly. The linesman did not raise the flag, and Lu Wenbin successfully made an offside.
Although the opponent's defender was faster than Lu Wenbin, Lu Wenbin successfully started the offside trap early and caught up with the ball earlier than them.
In front of the top of the penalty area, Lu Wenbin caught up with the captain's through ball and shot directly. The ball went between the legs of the goalkeeper Benaglio.
When Benaglio found that Lu Wenbin hit him between the legs, he sat down in the hope of blocking the ball.
However, at such a close distance, Lu Wenbin's shooting speed was also extremely fast, and Benaglio ended up not hitting anything and sat down on the ground.
The ball went straight through the Wolfsburg goalkeeper and the goal post. Lu Wenbin also scored two goals in five minutes, as if he was deliberately protecting the opponent's two goals in five minutes.
In fact, it's just a coincidence.
In the 88th minute, Lu Wenbin scored his second goal, helping Hoffenheim lead Wolfsburg 4-2 at home. This was the final word that secured the victory.
