Seven Crowns

The next day, the entire Hoffenheim team took the opportunity to return to Germany.

At Frankfurt Airport, when captains Salihovic and Lu Wenbin walked out of the airport holding the Bertoni Cup, they were cheered by thousands of Hoffenheim fans who greeted the team at the airport.

Afterwards, the whole team returned to Sinsheim by the team's bus and went to the Municipal Square where the last Bundesliga championship was celebrated to celebrate the UEFA Cup championship.

And following the bus, there are hundreds of fans' cars, as well as dozens of domestic and foreign media interview cars.

With the Hoffenheim flag on their cars, the fans drove from Frankfurt to Sinsheim, honking their horns to celebrate along the way, which made the fans of the Frankfurt club envious.

Back in Sinsheim, when Salihovic appeared on the balcony on the second floor of the municipal building holding the Bertoni Cup, 100,000 fans in the municipal square shouted "We are European champions" cheers.

Hoffenheim's carnival lasted for a whole day before gradually dissipating.

Subsequently, Ralph gave most of the main players, including Lu Wenbin, two days off to rest for two days, and then came back for training on May 24 to prepare for the final German Cup final of the season.

...

Exactly, May 23 is Lu Wenbin's birthday, he should be 19 years old.

When there was no competition before, Kate drove Lu Chongxin and Sun Jiahui and his wife around for a ride. When there was a competition, she followed Kate to the scene to cheer for Lu Wenbin.

Now that Lu Wenbin is on vacation, Kate invited Lu Chongxin and his wife to visit her home. At the same time, the two families also celebrated Lu Wenbin's birthday together.

It just so happened that Lu Chongxin and his wife were also curious about the town of Dietfort that their son had mentioned.

So they accepted Kate's invitation, and on May 22, the family drove to Dietfort together to be a guest at Kate's house.

In Dieterford, Lu Chongxin and his wife were not only warmly welcomed by Kate's parents, but also by all the citizens of the town.

Now everyone already knows that Lu Wenbin is the boyfriend of the daughter of the mayor of Dietford, Kate, a professional player in Hoffenheim, and has just won the Bundesliga and the UEFA Cup double, and has also created many unmatched football. record.

Therefore, everyone admires Lu Wenbin very much,

Naturally, he also respects Lu Wenbin's parents.

What's more, the citizens of this town are naturally fond of Chinese people.

After staying in Germany for more than ten days, the old couple did not know German and English, and could not communicate with Germans. Lu Chongxin and his wife were really uncomfortable during this time.

If it weren't for Kate's company, or if they weren't waiting to see their son win the Triple Crown, the old couple would have fled back to China.

Now that they suddenly came to a place where most people in the whole town can speak Chinese, write Chinese characters, and use chopsticks, the old couple suddenly felt a little reluctant and did not want to go back to their residence in Rhine-Neckar County with Lu Wenbin.

In the end, after a discussion, they let Lu Chongxin and his wife stay in Dietfort to play, Kate stayed to accompany them, and Lu Wenbin went back to the club for training.

When the German Cup final starts, Kate will bring the old couple, her parents and younger brother to the scene to cheer on Lu Wenbin and witness the triple crown of Hoffenheim and Lu Wenbin!

Therefore, after his birthday at noon on May 23 and the two families had Lu Wenbin's birthday banquet together, Lu Wenbin said goodbye to his parents and girlfriend in the afternoon, and drove back to the club by himself.

It was also on May 23 that Ralf took a team composed of most of the substitutes and a few main players to challenge Schalke 04 away.

This is Hoffenheim's last Bundesliga game of the season.

Hoffenheim, who played with most of the substitutes, lost to Schalke 04 1-2 on the road without any accident. The points stayed at 73 points when they won the championship three rounds in advance, and they lost all the last three rounds of the league.

Of course, no one cares whether Hoffenheim wins or loses the last three rounds. Everyone knows that Hoffenheim's final focus is the UEFA Cup and German Cup finals.

Although the UEFA Cup is now in hand, there is still a German Cup final, and Hoffenheim lost to Schalke 04 with most of the substitutes. There is no surprise at all.

Because they want the main players to save energy to play the German Cup final.

In order to prevent the tacit ball, all the games in the last round of the league started at the same time and ended almost at the same time.

In addition to Hoffenheim already won the championship ahead of schedule and gave up the game, Werder Bremen, ranked 10th, also gave up the game in order to participate in the German Cup final, and lost 1-5 to Wolfsburg on the road. defeat.

However, there is no fear of relegation anyway. It is understandable that Bremen gave up this away game and kept the main players for the German Cup match with Hoffenheim.

Therefore, Wolfsburg used a big victory to keep the second position in the league, 2 points ahead of the third-ranked Bayern Munich, and directly qualified for next season's Champions League group stage like Hoffenheim.

The Bundesliga hegemons, Bayern Munich, lost too many points at the beginning of the first half of the season. Although they chased after them, they could only rank third in the end, and they had to start from the play-offs.

Fortunately, with the strength of Bayern Munich, there is basically no need to worry about being unable to break out of the play-offs.

On the contrary, when the teams in other leagues meet, whoever encounters Bayern in the play-offs will be unlucky.

Stuttgart and Hertha Berlin ranked fourth and fifth respectively and qualified for the restructured Europa League.

There is also a Europa League qualification that was originally allocated to the German Cup champion, but because Hoffenheim, who participated in the German Cup final, has already qualified for the European competition through the league championship.

So, whether or not the other participating team, Werder Bremen, can beat Hoffenheim to win the German Cup, they will definitely qualify for a Europa League.

Of course, no one goes to the finals for the runner-up.

Even if the outside world commented that Werder Bremen and Hoffenheim had a huge difference in strength, they would still fight to the death with Hoffenheim in the German Cup final.

The league has come to an end, and then there is only the final German FA Cup final in the German league. The two sides are Hoffenheim and Werder Bremen. The game time is May 30.

On May 24, the Hoffenheim team resumed training and began preparing for the German Cup final, working hard for their treble.

However, before Hoffenheim achieved their own minor treble, another team had already achieved their major treble.

On May 27, 2009, in the UEFA Champions League final, Barcelona beat the defending champion Manchester United 2-0 with goals from Eto'o and Messi, and won the 2008/2009 UEFA Champions League.

In addition to the Spanish King's Cup and La Liga titles that have been won before, Barcelona has thus become Spain's first "Triple Crown" team.

This is the supreme and most valuable triple crown in European football. The triple crown that Hoffenheim is fighting for can only be regarded as a small triple crown.

Because the gold content of the UEFA Cup championship is too far from the Champions League!

Therefore, in the next few days, Shen Qin all over the world was discussing the Barcelona Triple Crown and the Dreaming of the Three Dynasties, and the small triple crown that Hoffenheim was about to challenge has been thrown into the corner by the media and fans.

This kind of treatment made Lu Wenbin, who believed that he would definitely win the Champions League in the future, inevitably felt envious and jealous.

Fortunately, next season Hoffenheim can participate in the Champions League.

At that time, Lu Wenbin will surely impress the world on the highest stage of European football!

Of course, it is only reasonable to concentrate on preparing for the final of the German Cup, and strive to win the small triple crown that Hoffenheim can currently win.
