Different from the last round against Bayern Munich, this round against Heidenheim, Heijing originally planned to rotate the lineup. After all, Heidenheim is only a second-tier team. What's more important is that the main lineup really needs a necessary rest.
But Yi Zhe stopped the head coach from doing this.
"Sir, I should at least appear in this game."
He said this directly, causing Heijin to turn his head and stare directly at him. After a moment, he smiled: "Yi, do you think Heidenheim is strong?"
Yi Zhe answered affirmatively: "Of course not as good as Wolfsburg, sir, but Zhang Xizhe is very capable."
"Zhang? Are you talking about him?" Heijin couldn't help laughing again and shook his head: "Yi, do you think there is anyone who knows him better than me? If he is really strong, I will definitely keep him for you. The two are partners."
Heijin doesn't care at all. You tell me that a player who can't get a chance to play for a minute here is very strong? Looking at Yi Zhe, he even felt that his captain was good at everything, but he was a little too biased towards his compatriots.
"Sir, he is really strong now."
Yi Zhe couldn't tell the real reason, but fortunately with his persistence, Heijin was still included in the team's starting lineup.
…
When Yi Zhe walked into Heidenheim's home court, he never thought that Zhang Xizhe would come to play in a place like this. Although Wolfsburg is not an international metropolis, it is still a city, but this seaside Denheim, to put it bluntly, is a small town. When he walked into the stadium, Yi Zhe thought of Darmstadt in his debut in the German Cup last season. This stadium felt smaller than that place.
Yi Zhe didn't feel wrong. Heidenheim is a small town on the Brenz River in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It has little presence in Germany. The biggest celebrity in history is probably the famous general who defeated the German army in World War II. " The birthplace of Rommel, the Desert Fox.
The stadium in front of us can only accommodate 15,000 people when it is full.
But Yi Zhe saw a scene that made him happy. Colorful banners with Zhang Xizhe's face appeared in the stands. Put his and Yi Zhe's big heads together, the two people collide fiercely, and use large fonts in the middle to highlight the protagonist.
"ZHANG!"
"ZHANG!"
"ZHANG!"
Yi Zhe and Zhang Xizhe met on the court. Although they each had their own priorities, the two No. 6s walked over and gave each other a high-five and a hug before the game started.
"Brother Xizhe, you're doing well!"
Yi Zhe pointed around. It was obvious that Zhang Xizhe had been treated as the protagonist.
Zhang Xizhe smiled: "Come to my territory, even the dragons have to lie down. Zhe, get ready to accept the test!"
"Ha! But I'm not a dragon. I'm used to being a human and have to stand!"
This scene also represents the sole focus of the game.
"This is Zhang who left Wolfsburg! This is a battle between two No. 6s! It seems that although he couldn't get a chance at Wolfsburg, he did a good job here. Yi must prove that he can do better than his compatriots , otherwise I’m afraid it will be embarrassing, hahahaha!”
Rees Lubert spoke in a relaxed tone. Wolfsburg has an absolute strength advantage and is not worried about the team overturning, so he expects Wolfsburg's players to also perform well.
Yi Zhe gathered everyone together again before the game started and reminded everyone again: "Guys, cheer up, this is not an easy game! Louis, one last reminder..."
"I know, Yi!"
Gustavo was really speechless. He glanced at Zhang Xizhe. It wasn't like they hadn't trained together. They were all in a low-level league. How strong could he be?
Heidenheim indeed deployed a 5-4-1 formation today. Although it was a home game, all of their players retreated to half-court defense to deal with Wolfsburg's pressure.
Of course Wolfsburg pressed forward with all its strength.
“Heidenheim!
!
"
“Heidenheim!
!
"
All the home fans cheered wildly. In this low-lying, small-capacity small stadium, the voices of nearly 13,000 fans were not weak at all.
But as soon as Yi Zhe came up, he directly dribbled the ball forward to start the offensive.
"This is Yi! The core midfielder of the Bundesliga champion, stop him!" The commentator of the local TV station in Heidenheim increased the volume. This is the first time they have encountered a player of this level in this stadium.
But Wolfsburg's method is full of simplicity and crudeness. Yi Zhe's long pass directly penetrated all the defenses. Bendtner ran directly to the penalty area and shook off all defenders. The connection between the two was like an air cut in a basketball game. Tactics, by the time Bendtner was spotted in the camera, he was already facing the goalkeeper in the penalty area.
“Whoa-Nick!
!
! "
Rees Lubet immediately shouted, but Heidenheim goalkeeper Zimmermann hit Bendtner's leg and punched the ball out of the ball and fell to the outside, but it was not over. Caligiuri followed up with a kick. Towards the middle, Yi Zhe faced the shovel and fired towards the goal.
"BOOM!"
The ball hit the crossbar. Yi Zhe smiled and licked his tongue, and glanced down at Zhang Xizhe.
Yi Zhe stretched out his hand to pull him up, smiled and patted his shoulder: "Don't show off in front of me! This is not your specialty, brother Xizhe!"
Just as Yi Zhe was about to turn around and walk back, he heard Zhang Xizhe shouting back at him from behind: "I really don't believe it, Zhe!"
Heidenheim arranged nine people to defend in the backcourt. Zhang Xizhe stood outside his own penalty area. Yi Zhe was just about to hit the goal with Bendtner's heel pass. He directly came forward to slide and tackle the ball. To the side.
"I go……"
Yi Zhe quickly controlled the ball and used his body to hold him from behind. Brother Xizhe's enthusiasm was beyond his expectation.
Zhang Xizhe's enthusiasm also won him cheers from the audience.
"Zhang! This is the best opportunity! Facing Wolfsburg who gave up on him, he needs to prove that he is absolutely no worse than Yi!"
Yi Zhe passed the ball to Caligiuri with his heel, but Caligiuri was forced to the ground by two people the moment he got the ball, and the ball was lost at this moment.
Just as Yi Zhe turned around, he saw that Zhang Xizhe had already counterattacked with the ball. Gustavo was already active enough, but Zhang Xizhe turned around with the ball and wiped it directly behind him.

"Louis, put him down!"
Yi Zhe shrank, and he had already run up, but Zhang Xizhe was not slow either - Gustavo had almost put his entire body weight on him. Although Zhang Xizhe staggered, he did not fall to the ground. He also suddenly sent a long overhead pass behind Wolfsburg's defense, directly finding the single arrow Murabit on the front line.
"oh--"
"Perfect long pass, counterattack!
!
! "
This kick directly made the whole atmosphere agitated. The Moroccan striker in Heidenheim's front line was a fast horse, and he tore apart the defense of Dante and Naldo in an instant to form a single attack.
"Damn it! Diego - this is a pass sent by Zhang! Luis Gustavo didn't even guard him!"
Reese Lubet's surprise surprised the entire Wolfsburg camp.
In the confrontation between the two No. 6s, of course the whole of Europe knew about Yi Zhe's ability, but Zhang Xizhe's outburst caught everyone by surprise and it was difficult to suppress him!
