In addition to Custer, other TV commentators in the commentary booth were also excitedly explaining the game to the audience in front of the TV, praising Lu Wenbin ravely.
In Germany, Europe, China, and all over the world, countless fans in front of the TV were convinced by Lu Wenbin's new record and knelt down!
"Scoring 68 goals in a season is amazing!"
"And it's in the top five leagues. Even the alien Ronaldo couldn't do it, but Lu Wenbin did it!"
"The key is that the season isn't over yet, and he's only 18 years old. It's terrifying! I want to be his fan!"
"Lu Wenbin is mighty and domineering, 666!"
Even the tens of thousands of Karlsruhe fans at home stood up and applauded in tribute to Lu Wenbin.
Even though Lu Wenbin is the opponent, even though they are behind in the score now, Lu Wenbin's achievements are still worthy of their applause and tribute.
Copado even rushed to Lu Wenbin, knelt on one knee, lifted Lu Wenbin's right foot, which had just taken the free kick, onto his knee, and made a shoe-wiping celebration gesture to express his admiration, which made Lu Wenbin feel a little embarrassed.
Hoffenheim celebrated for a full minute before the game was restarted following the protest of Karlsruhe players.
Karlsruhe, eager to equalize the score, invested more manpower in the attack, but also gave Hoffenheim more offensive opportunities.
In the 73rd minute, Lu Wenbin ran out of the penalty area and received a pass from Sanogo, but the next moment he was blocked by the opponent's defender who was focusing on him, preventing him from shooting.
Lu Wenbin made a forced shot, causing the defenders and goalkeeper to be nervous, and then he faked a shot and passed the ball to Weiss in the middle.
Weiss made a shooting motion and shook the goalkeeper who was rushing back from Lu Wenbin's side hard.
However, Weiss, who failed as a striker but succeeded as a midfielder and proved that he had no talent for shooting, did not shoot himself. Instead, he shook his ankle and passed the ball to the other side of the small penalty area where there was no one guarding it.
Everyone in the restricted area was attracted by Lu Wenbin, Weiss, Copado and Sanogo, and no one paid any attention to Obasi who ran in from the wing.
When the Karlsruhe players turned around and saw Obasi, Obasi had already received the pass from Weiss and shot the ball without any interference.
The ball flew into the goal like a cannonball, the goalkeeper stretched out his hand but touched nothing!
Obasi, who finally scored a goal after returning from repeated muscle strains, rushed to the sidelines like crazy and slid on his knees to celebrate. Then Lu Wenbin and others who followed closely behind him rushed over and hugged Obasi.
Obasi has fully recovered and has regained his shooting form!
As the end of the season approaches and every game becomes more and more important, Nilsson's recovery and Obasi's return to form are undoubtedly good news for Hoffenheim.
After taking a 3-1 lead and basically securing the victory, Hoffenheim began to tighten their defense and save energy. Ralph also replaced Lu Wenbin with No. 10 Teber and changed to a 442 diamond midfield formation.
Although Lu Wenbin has been performing very vigorously recently, not only has he no physical problems but his ability to fight is getting stronger and stronger, but Ralph is still worried.
Therefore, even when the victory was secured, he was still replaced by Ralph.
After Lu Wenbin left the field, Karlsruhe was finally able to free up more manpower to attack, and scored another goal in the 86th minute to tie the score to 2-3, but still lost.
In the end, Hoffenheim defeated Karlsruhe 3-2 away from home, taking all three points again, continuing to lead the Bundesliga standings with 67 points, and far ahead of their competitors in the second group.
The collapse of Hoffenheim that other Bundesliga teams hoped to see has not yet come, and as the number of games left to the end of the league decreases, Hoffenheim's chances of winning the championship are getting higher and higher.
If they continue to win like this, Hoffenheim will even win the championship several rounds in advance.
…
In the match against Karlsruhe, Lu Wenbin received a reward of 20,000 experience points for scoring 2 goals and 20,000 experience points for winning, totaling 40,000 experience points. The experience points increased to level 16, 431,000/2 million.
Then, after the team returned to the base, they rested for a day on April 19, trained only in the morning on April 20, and set off for Leverkusen in the afternoon to prepare for the German Football Association Cup semi-final against Leverkusen the next day.
The tight schedule of fighting on three fronts is indeed not something that ordinary teams can bear.
It is no wonder that some small teams did not feel happy for long after qualifying for the European Cup in the first season, but collapsed and were relegated in the second season because they could not bear the pressure of fighting on two fronts.
If Hoffenheim hadn't had Lu Wenbin, who was using cheats to lead the team forward, the league alone would have collapsed due to continuous injuries and suspensions, let alone making progress on all three fronts.
Leverkusen is also to blame for Hoffenheim's constant injuries, as main central defender Nilsson was injured in the 20th round of the Bundesliga against Leverkusen on February 13 and was sidelined for two months.
Therefore, Hoffenheim and Nilsson are absolutely full of hatred towards Leverkusen.
Conversely, Leverkusen will not have a good impression of Hoffenheim.
Because in the 20th round of the league, Leverkusen was tied by Hoffenheim four times after leading four times, and Lu Wenbin also scored the winning goal in the last second of stoppage time, staging a 5-4 reversal that shocked the world.
Hoffenheim completed an epic comeback victory, which boosted confidence and morale, increased the cohesion of the team and fans, and attracted countless new fans.
Leverkusen, which was reversed by Hoffenheim, became a negative example and a background emperor, and was ridiculed by many rival teams and fans.
Hoffenheim wants to avenge the injury that caused Nilsson, Leverkusen wants to avenge the reversal and become the background emperor. Plus the qualification for the final, this semi-final will be as fierce as the collision of Mars and the Earth!
Before the game started, whether it was the pre-match press conference or the interviews with reporters, the players and coaches of both sides were tit-for-tat and full of tension.
For both sides, this is a battle of revenge.
At 19:30 on the evening of April 21st, with the referee's whistle, the 2008/2009 German Football Association Cup semi-final between Leverkusen and Hoffenheim officially began.
Hoffenheim played a 433 formation in this game, with Ozcan as the starting goalkeeper and Jancker and the returning Nilsson as the central defenders.
The two full-backs are Beck and Yaisle, the defensive midfielder is Gustavo, the double attacking midfielders are Salihovic and Copado, and the three forwards are Lu Wenbin, Parjic and Demba Ba.
Leverkusen played a 442 formation, with center back Friedrich and defensive midfielder Rolfes responsible for closely marking Lu Wenbin, while other defenders provided assistance and filled in at any time according to Lu Wenbin's positional changes.
Anyway, we must try our best to stop Lu Wenbin's shooting in open play.
