Chapter 353 Champions League Records

The teammates kept wasting opportunities until the 72nd minute, when Lu Wenbin ran out of the penalty area and received a pass from Salihovic.

Before the opponent double-teamed him, Lu Wenbin took a long shot from outside the penalty area.

The ball passed through the crowd in the penalty area and got into the goal of Borussia Mönchengladbach against the turf.

Lu Wenbin scored twice to make it 2-0 for Hoffenheim.

After Lu Wenbin scored twice to give Hoffenheim a 2-0 lead, neither side scored again in the following time.

In the 85th minute, Lu Wenbin was replaced by Ralph and enjoyed the cheers of the home fans alone.

After 3 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game. Hoffenheim won the 100th match of Lu Wenbin's club with a score of 2-0 and took all three points. .

...

After the 23rd round of the Bundesliga with Monchengladbach, Hoffenheim entered the preparation time for the Champions League.

Lu Wenbin began to use more dribbles in training. Although he could not reach the point of dribbling, the success rate of dribbling was higher than his previous ones.

On February 22, Hoffenheim arrived in Piraeus, a seaport city near the Greek capital Athens, two days ahead of schedule. This is the city where Hoffenheim's Champions League 1/8 final opponent Olympiacos is located.

As the first place in the Champions League group stage,

In the 1/8 finals, Hoffenheim automatically enjoyed a more favorable schedule.

Therefore, they have to go away to challenge Olympiacos first.

Olympiakos is a giant in the Greek Super League. It has won seven consecutive championships in the Greek Super League and reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League in the 1998/1999 season. It is currently ranked second in the Greek Super League, 2 points behind rival Panathinaikos.

Facing Bundesliga leader Hoffenheim in the 1/8 finals, Olympiacos can only hope for the first round of home games.

In the away game of the second leg, Olympiacos did not have much expectations.

Once, they created an embarrassing record of 31 consecutive away games in the Champions League, which shows how bad their away games are.

Although the record was later terminated, Olympiacos' away play did not change fundamentally.

Therefore, they must beat Hoffenheim at home to have a glimmer of hope of advancing to the quarterfinals.

Of course, this is very difficult.

It is not easy to attack and defend Lu Wenbin to prevent Hoffenheim from scoring away goals.

The coaches and players of Olympiacos can only do their best.

For Hoffenheim, it was easier.

Although Olympiacos is a giant in Greece, it is not enough to be seen in the European football world. As long as Hoffenheim plays their football well and shows the level in training, I believe it will not be difficult to win.

Moreover, Greece is in the south, and the weather is much warmer than Germany.

For the Hoffenheim team players who were still fighting in the rain at around zero degrees in the previous games, the current average temperature of more than 10 degrees in Greece is simply too warm.

Therefore, in the first round of the 2009/2010 UEFA Champions League 1/8 finals on February 23, Hoffenheim challenged Olympiacos away, and Hoffenheim players including Lu Wenbin were much more excited.

One is that the meaning of the Champions League itself is different, and the other is the impact of the better weather on everyone.

After the start of the game, Hoffenheim quickly turned to the guest and launched an indiscriminate bombardment against Olympiacos in the away game.

Although Olympiacos would like to beat Hoffenheim with home goals and keep the hope of promotion, but the huge gap in strength makes them only choose to defend Lu Wenbin, Ibisevic and Demba Ba on the counterattack.

In this way, Olympiacos' frontcourt is seriously short of people, and even if there are occasional counterattack opportunities, they cannot grasp it.

In the 12th minute, Olympiacos grabbed the ball and played a counterattack. As a result, their forward dribbled the ball in front and was helpless. In the end, Gustavo, Simunić, and Nelson intercepted the ball. There was no time to shoot.

On the other hand, Hoffenheim has more chances to shoot.

In the 6th minute, Lu Wenbin pulled away two defenders through running positions, and Ibisevic got a gap shot in the middle.

It's just that his shot was saved by the opposing goalkeeper Purdis.

In the 9th minute, Lu Wenbin also got a chance to shoot, but the shot ball was missed by the opponent's defender who stretched out his foot and missed the goal.

The continuous attack finally paid off in the 22nd minute.

Although the opponent is playing a defensive counterattack, the penalty area is densely populated and it is difficult to form a shooting opportunity, but there are still many long-range shooting opportunities outside the penalty area.

In the 22nd minute, Lu Wenbin got the ball from the corner of the penalty area and took a long shot. The ball circled an arc in the air, bypassed the palm of Purdis who volleyed to save, and drilled into the far corner of the goal.

Lu Wenbin scored the first goal for Hoffenheim to take a 1-0 lead in the away game and scored an away goal. Lu Wenbin's number of goals in the Champions League this season also reached 14.

The German commentator Dickenson suddenly shouted: "Toooooooooooooooooooor..."

"Goal, Lu scored!"

"There is no goal that Lu can't break!"

"This is Lu's 14th goal this season. He equaled the record of 14 goals in a single season in the Champions League created by AC Milan star Altafini in the 1962/1963 season!"

"This game is not over yet, and neither is the Champions League this season. Lu still has a chance to break Altafini's single-season scoring record in the Champions League!"

The more than 1,000 Hoffenheim fans who accompanied the team on the expedition to Greece also cheered loudly, celebrating Lu Wenbin's record-tying goal.

After Lu Wenbin celebrated with his teammates for a while, the game resumed.

After the home score fell behind, Olympiacos fell into a greater passivity. They had to invest their troops to attack and equalize the score, or even reverse the score.

However, when they started to attack, there were more opportunities for Hoffenheim in the backcourt.

In the 31st minute, Eduardo pretended to pass the ball to Lu Wenbin to deceive his opponent, but passed the ball to Demba Ba in the penalty area.

Demba Ba raged at the ball, and the ball flew into the net like lightning.

Demba Ba scored his first goal since returning from injury to give Hoffenheim a two-goal lead and a 2-0 lead.
