Chapter 79 This night is very lively(1/2)
The flight from Madrid back to Leverkusen, Germany, was very quiet. Apart from the roar of the plane itself and the occasional cough, there was no other sound.
Even the flight attendants had finished their cabin service, returned to the rest areas at the front and back of the cabin, closed the curtains and chatted quietly.
It's not because the passengers are asleep.
It's because most of the passengers on the plane are depressed and don't want to talk.
Losing to the defending champion in an away game, the hope of qualifying for the group becomes increasingly slim... This is okay, because this result is not unexpected.
Not many people really believe that Vesseldorf can beat the in-form Madrid Pirates away from home.
But... losing 0:8 is definitely a different concept.
What does this score mean?
This is the biggest point difference in a single game in the history of the Champions League!
This is not the first game with the largest point difference. There have been eight-goal points differences before. But the opponents in those previous games were the result of encounters between teams in second- and third-rate leagues and real giants.
What about today's game?
Vesseldorf was fourth in the Bundesliga last season!
In Germany, Vesseldorf was also a strong player, but was beaten like this by the Madrid Pirates.
Such a tragic result, not only the people watching the game didn't understand, but the Vesseldorf players didn't understand either.
From the visiting team's locker room, to the bus, and then to the cabin of the plane.
Along the way, Vesseldorf's players basically spent their time in silence.
They could be said to have "hurriedly" fled back to the country.
On the same night, the Lyon Lions defeated Insoubre 1:0 at home. The French Ligue 1 runner-up became second in the group with four points, and also opened the distance from Vesseldorf.
Now it's not even a question of whether Vesseldorf can still participate in the Champions League knockout rounds, but whether Vesseldorf has a chance to participate in the Europa League knockout rounds...
But these are not problems in the face of a score of 0:8.
Head coach Oliver Schmidt apologized to the Vesseldorf fans at the post-match press conference, taking full responsibility for the loss on himself.
It is said that it was his risky and radical tactical choices that led to this historic defeat.
But he just wants to win, so what's wrong with that?
He wants to defeat the defending champion away from home, and there is only one way.
He chose the right approach, but did not get the right answer.
This is football...sometimes you try your best and put in your hard work and sweat, but you may not be able to reap results that are proportional to your efforts.
It's just that this time not only did I not gain any results, but I also lost everything.
An ordinary Champions League group match turned into a historic tragedy.
Every Vesseldorf player has been nailed to the team's pillar of shame.
For who knows how many years to come, this game will definitely be mentioned repeatedly and appear in various reviews.
※※※
Sugiyama Tatsuya flattened the seat, lay on it, closed his eyes, and forced himself to rest.
It seems that this night can be forgotten after just one sleep.
But he couldn't sleep no matter what.
As soon as he closed his eyes, it was the scene of Hu Lai making his iconic celebration in front of him.
And it's not just one time, it's actions from different perspectives.
A full six times.
Madrid Pirates defeated Vesseldorf 8-0 at home. Hu Lai scored six goals in this game!
Until now, Sugiyama Tatsuya would always unconsciously hear the roar of airplane engines in his ears as “huuuuu!
!”
Now Sugiyama Tatsuya has the same feeling:
Regret, very much regret.
Before the game, he vowed to make Hu Lai take him seriously as an opponent and go all out.
After the game, he really couldn't figure out what he was thinking at the beginning. Could it be that he was unknowingly infected by Morikawa Junpei's chuunippi temperament?
No, it's not Junpei's fault...
It's me, I have already regarded Hu Lai as my opponent very early on.
I really want to defeat him.
As an opponent, doesn’t it show respect for me to go all out?
It's just that Sugiyama Tatsuya never expected that Hu Lai would turn out to be so terrifying after going all out...
He recalled a scene in the game when Hu Lai and his teammates ran back to the Pirates half after celebrating his second goal.
At that time Hu Lai specially smiled at him.
At that time, Sugiyama Tatsuya thought that Hu Lai was challenging him to fight him to the fullest.
But now Sugiyama Tatsuya realized that maybe Hu Lai was really just laughing at him.
Laughing at him for overestimating his capabilities and actually wanting Hu Lai to go all out...
In the first half of the game, Hu Lai scored two goals, which is still within the normal range.
As a result, there was a big four in the second half - not two more goals in the second half for a total of four goals, but four goals in half the game...
This is really beyond the scope of ordinary people's understanding.
Six goals in a single game made Hu Lai the player with the most goals in a single game in the history of the Champions League.
In fact, he had already set this record when he scored his fifth goal.
But soon, twelve minutes later, he broke the record he had set.
If he had known that Hu Lai was so violent when he went all out, Sugiyama Tatsuya probably wouldn't have asked Hu Lai to go all out.
It's a completely bewildering act of suicide...
He can only be grateful now. Fortunately, when he communicated with Hu Lai, he used Japanese and no one around him understood it. Otherwise, if his teammates knew that he asked Hu Lai to go all out before the game, I really don't know how they would look at it.
Own……
I'm afraid you'll feel like you're an undercover agent, right?
But I didn’t know he would be so powerful after giving it his all!
Sugiyama Tatsuya really couldn't sleep, so he simply straightened his seat and sat up.
Looking around, I saw someone like myself sleeping.
But judging from their tossing and turning, it was obvious that not many of them could fall asleep.
Almost everyone can imagine how the German media and even the European media will evaluate this game tomorrow and how they will evaluate their performance.
In fact, there is no need to wait for tomorrow...
After the game, major institutions rated the players of both teams. Hu Lai, who completed two hat tricks, received an extremely rare perfect score of 10 - even the German media gave Hu Lai one point, in Germany's five-point scoring system
, one point is a perfect score.
He was also elected the best of the match, and he deserved it, no doubt.
As for Vesseldorf, no one in the team scored more than six points...
After looking around, Sugiyama Tatsuya sat slumped on his chair, not knowing how to face the world tomorrow.
They say time can heal all wounds, but this time the pain may take a long, long time to heal...

"A disgrace to German football!"
"Tonight is the darkest night for German football!"
"0:8! The biggest score difference in the history of the Champions League! This is not only a failure for Vesseldorf, I think it is also a failure for German football! All German teams should remember the night of October 24, 2029!"
…
"Good guy, this is just a hornet's nest... He has successfully become the number one public enemy of the German team, ha!"
While looking at his phone, Lin Zhiyuan complained.
Before the game was over, Lin Zhiyuan couldn't wait to pick up his phone and wanted to see what the Internet was saying about this crazy game.
As expected, he was not disappointed. It can be said that the German Internet was "extremely angry". All German fans collectively broke through the defense and seemed to have become Vesseldorf fans on this night.
"Weissedorf is really unlucky. It was just an ordinary Champions League game, but who knew it would set a record... Hu Lai wanted to chase Montiel's record, how could he stop?"
His agent Qiu Xinrong shook his head.
To be continued...
