Seven Crowns

Leverkusen is not Cottbus, nor is it the newly promoted Borussia Mönchengladbach, who were seventh in the Bundesliga last season.

Therefore, Lu Wenbin's goal in the 13th minute will not break them, but will make their counterattack more violent.

The weakness of offensive football lies in the lack of strength in the backcourt and the lack of defensive strength.

As a result, Hoffenheim also scored a goal in the 22nd minute when Leverkusen frantically counterattacked. The goal was No. 9 striker Simes.

Next, the two sides still played very openly, and no one took the initiative to show weakness and shrink the defense.

In the 31st minute, Lu Wenbin ran out of the penalty area and received a pass from Eduardo, which caused tension in Leverkusen's defense and goalkeeper.

However, Lu Wenbin made a fake shot and then passed the ball to the captain Salihovic, who was obliquely inserted into the penalty area.

Salihovic fired angrily at the ball, and the ball got into the goal from the armpit of Adler who was rushing back. Hoffenheim led 2-1.

However, the tenacious Leverkusen leveled the score a few minutes later, and the two sides returned to a 2-2 draw.

Then, until the 44th minute, at the end of the first half, both sides were still tied 2-2.

It seems that the two sides seem to enter the halftime with a score of 2-2.

Just when everyone thought that the score of 2-2 was going to enter the intermission in the first half, Lu Wenbin, who had not given up his running position, made a short gap in the penalty area again, and Eduardo passed the ball after breaking through. It is about to reach Lu Wenbin's feet.

At this time, Lu Wenbin was only more than 10 meters away from the goal, which was almost like kicking a penalty kick, but it was a little bit farther than the penalty spot.

But even so, this distance is enough to make Leverkusen's players nervous.

Compared with other forwards in the league, Lu Wenbin's shot frame hit rate and final goal rate are too high.

At this point in time and at this position, if Lu Wenbin scores a goal, wouldn't it be time to enter the intermission with a trailing score?

So, No. 5 defender Friedrich behind Lu Wenbin subconsciously pushed Lu Wenbin, the original intention was to make him unstable and unable to catch the ball and shoot smoothly.

Unexpectedly, what Friedrich thought he had little strength directly pushed Lu Wenbin forward and staggered forward. In the end, he couldn't stand still and fell to the ground.

Friedrich immediately raised his hands and looked at the referee with a shocked and innocent expression, indicating that he did not push Lu Wenbin at all.

However, the referee, who was watching clearly nearby, didn't pay attention to so much. He decisively blew the whistle in his mouth, pointed his finger at the penalty spot, and awarded Hoffenheim a penalty.

Friedrich suddenly became anxious and complained to the referee: "He flopped, I didn't push him at all!"

Other Leverkusen players also gathered around and complained to the referee that Lu Wenbin flopped, but Friedrich did not foul at all.

Hoffenheim players testified one after another, saying they saw Friedrich pushing people.

At this time, Lu Wenbin stood up unscathed. Friedrich pointed at Lu Wenbin excitedly and said to the referee: "Look, he is completely unscathed. Does he look like he was fouled by me?"

The referee shook his head and said: "Fouls are not judged by whether the opponent suffers or not. It is a fact that you stretched out your hand and pushed Lu. I saw it with my own eyes, so there is no need to say it!"

Then, the referee made a gesture of about to draw out the cards, indicating to the Leverkusen players that if you surround me again, I will draw out the cards.

As a last resort, everyone could only mutter and disperse. Friedrich passed by Lu Wenbin and cursed: "Liar, flop, I didn't use much effort!"

Lu Wenbin ignored him, picked up the football on the ground, and walked to the penalty spot.

He knew that Friedrich didn't use much energy, actually because of his 13/13 physical attributes compared to professional players,

Especially the strong defenders are still a bit low, so they are so easily pushed down by Friedrich.

But it is a fact that Friedrich pushed him from behind. He was neither a flop nor did he have the subjective consciousness of deliberately cheating a penalty kick. I couldn't stand up and fell down.

He is only responsible for scoring goals and taking the lead for Hoffenheim, even if it is a penalty.

For Lu Wenbin's 20/20 shooting attributes, hitting a penalty kick is foolproof.

Lu Wenbin steadily kicked the penalty kick into the dead corner. Although Adler rushed in the right direction, he was beyond his reach. He could only watch helplessly as the ball rushed into the goal from in front of him.

In the 45th minute of the first half, Lu Wenbin scored a penalty kick, scored twice, and provided an assist to help Hoffenheim lead Leverkusen 3-2.

Not long after Lu Wenbin scored the penalty, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.

After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

Lu Wenbin was strictly guarded by the Leverkusen players. Even if they left the gap to others, they would not allow Lu Wenbin to get another chance to shoot.

Because other people still have a problem with the scoring rate, but Lu Wenbin's shooting is almost sure.

Therefore, they chose to guard against Lu Wenbin.

But the result of this is that the shooting opportunities of Demba Ba, Ibisevic and others have greatly increased.

Although their scoring rate is not high, they can always score goals if they shoot more times, right?

In the 68th minute, after Lu Wenbin's insertion into the penalty area caused a burst of tension in Leverkusen's defense, Beck, who dribbled the ball forward from the side to assist, passed the ball to Demba Ba outside the penalty area.

Demba Ba hit the ball with a heavy bombardment, and the ball hit the Leverkusen defender Enrique, who had sacrificed himself to block the hole, causing a refraction, and flew into the net from the opposite direction of the goalkeeper Adler's save.

Demba Ba scored again and helped Hoffenheim lead Leverkusen 4-2 away.

Seeing the score, Ralph made a quick decision and replaced Demba Ba with No. 17 Weiss, who changed from a forward to a defensive avant-garde, and changed to 442 to balance the formation and strengthen the defense.

But Lu Wenbin didn't end, and Leverkusen's defense was afraid to attack aggressively.

Therefore, in the following game, although Leverkusen wanted to reverse it, they only scored a goal in the 86th minute, and then failed to equalize until the end of the game.

Of course, Lu Wenbin was not very lucky. In the second half, he scored a free kick and scored twice in sports games, but he failed to score again.

After two minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.

Hoffenheim won the third round of the Bundesliga with a score of 4-3 against the Bundesliga powerhouse Bayer Leverkusen. It was also Hoffenheim's three-game winning streak.
