"Perfect sense of crisis!" In the stands, Ranieri smiled with a bitter look on his face.
This was not the first time he had witnessed Chu Zheng's miraculous position selection.
European media all say that Chu Zheng can predict upcoming dangers.
But in fact, in Ranieri's view, Chu Zheng is not a prophet, but a perception. This is a top defensive talent.
Players with this kind of talent often perform miraculous defense in the most dangerous position during the game.
Ranieri spent his early years in Serie A, known as the Little World Cup, and he also saw talented players with Chu Zheng's talent.
But none of those players have as strong a perception as Chu Zheng.
Chu Zheng gave Ranieri a magical feeling, as if all the defensive loopholes on the field could not escape Chu Zheng's eyes.
Of course, Ranieri's intention to bring Chu Zheng to Leicester City was not just because of Chu Zheng's defensive talent and ability.
What he liked most was Chu Zheng's short-lived madness in the second round match against Naples.
Ranieri watched that game six times.
He repeatedly analyzed every kick Chu Zheng made in that game.
The conclusion reached is that no matter whether Chu Zheng's kick is successful or not, there must be a gap for the defender at the end of the passing line.
This vision amazed Ranieri.
Therefore, after watching that game, Ranieri made up his mind to bring Chu Zheng to Leicester City.
No matter what, he has to convince Leicester City owner Vichai to buy Chu Zheng.
But now he doesn't know if he can do it.
Chu Zheng is so outstanding.
Such talented players will inevitably be snapped up by the giants in major leagues when the summer transfer window opens in a month's time.
And their Leicester City has no advantage at all against these giants.
Compared with other wealthy clubs that have European competition to compete in, Leicester City is not attractive at all.
Time flew by, and when the final whistle sounded, the Volkswagen Arena was in an uproar.
Most Wolfsburg fans had a look of disbelief on their faces.
They never expected that the team playing at home could not score a single goal.
On the field, Chu Zheng was lying on the soft turf, looking at the somewhat dim sky, with a wry smile and helplessness on his face.
What an evil thing!
Chu Zheng almost forgot how many shots they took in this game, but they never scored, which made Chu Zheng have the urge to knock down the goalposts several times.
After the game, this upset game was reported by the European media, and Wolfsburg became the target of countless media ridicules.
"The situation in Wolfsburg is not optimistic. They are visiting Dnipro in the second round and are in danger of being eliminated!"
"An upset! Unbelievable, Wolfsburg fired 29 shots in 90 minutes, but not a single goal!"
"Man of the match, Dnipro goalkeeper Boyko, he rejected Wolfsburg's goals time and time again!"
"This is the strength of the dark horse. They made 32 successful clearances, 10, 9, and 7 tackles, blocks, and interceptions respectively! Boyko made five wonderful saves!"
In the days after the game, Dieter's face became darker and darker.
Although this guy didn't scold Chu Zheng and other players on the field on the surface, he secretly caused trouble and made Chu Zheng and others practice shooting like crazy.
Chu Zheng and others could only feel pain and happiness, enjoying the destruction of Dieter's black gold.
On May 10th, the 32nd round of the Bundesliga begins.
Wolfsburg is away to Paderborn this round.
In the end, Wolfsburg defeated Paderborn 3-1.
The only thing that disappointed Wolfsburg fans was that Bayern also won Augsburg 1-0 at home.
After the game, Wolfsburg's entire team flew to Ukraine the next day to prepare for the second round match against Dnipro.
Dieter Heijing flew to Ukraine three days in advance to allow the players to get adequate rest and adapt to the Ukrainian climate environment in order to prepare for the upcoming difficult away game.
As a result, on the first night, huge fireworks exploded into the sky from time to time near the hotel where Wolfsburg lived.
Chu Zheng, De Bruyne and others were so disturbed that they could not sleep peacefully.
Dieter Heijing knew that this was done by Dnipro fans, so he directly called the police in an attempt to use the police to intimidate the fans.
But there was nothing the police could do.
Because these fans recognized the mistake quickly and paid the fine quickly, but once the police left, they continued to harass Wolfsburg.
Dieter Heijing, who lacked experience in European wars, had to swallow the bitter pill brewed by himself.
Three days later, the game started as scheduled.
Under the roar of boos and cheers from the home fans at the Kyiv Olympic Stadium, the second round of the clash between Wolfsburg and Dnipro officially started.
However, it rained all night. Not only did the temperature drop sharply during the game, but it also started to rain lightly. This harsh competition environment made matters worse for Wolfsburg, who had been harassed by fans for three consecutive days and did not get enough rest.
Chu Zheng even felt that they were being targeted by God!
After the game started, Wolfsburg players immediately entered the state.
The Europa League has reached this point, and no one wants to be eliminated.
Moreover, in order to motivate the players and advance to the Europa League finals, Wolfsburg's top management provided a bonus of two million euros.
As long as the team advances, everyone can get a very considerable bonus.
On the field, the game immediately entered a fast-paced confrontation after the start, and the situation gradually became more intense.
Compared with the first round, Dnipro's tactical style in this game is no longer extremely conservative.
Instead, he took the initiative to attack while defending well.
This was exactly what Dieter wanted. He was afraid that Dnipro would set up a bus with them at home.
In terms of offensive power, with De Bruyne in the frontcourt and Chu Zheng in the backcourt, Dieter Heijing is not afraid of anyone.
Moreover, he held the trump card of Chu Zheng in his hand and did not let it go.
Once Chu Zheng is placed in the back midfielder and allowed to fully display his offensive talents, the offensive power displayed by Chu Zheng is even scary to him.
He did not believe that Dnipro could not be defeated.
On the field, the two sides fought back and forth in the rain.
Wolfsburg did not disappoint Dieter Heijing and soon threatened Dnipro's goal.
In the 4th minute of the game, Wolfsburg attacked with the ball. Dnipro's two defensive lines in the midfield and backcourt, playing a 442 formation, were placed across the top of the arc, compressing Wolfsburg's offensive space.
But after De Bruyne got the ball, he sent a wonderful through ball directly from the gap.
Dost successfully countered offside and won a one-on-one goal.
Entering the Dnipro penalty area 12 meters to the right of the penalty spot, Dost immediately took a shot.
As a result, Dnipro goalkeeper Boyko stood up again and blocked the ball back to its original path, allowing Dnipro left center back Chebeyashko behind Dost to quickly make a big kick.
When Chu Zheng saw that the ball had not been scored in front of the center circle, he jumped out of anger.
De Bruyne almost fed the ball into Dost's throat, but Dost spit it out.
On the sidelines, Dieter Heijing's face darkened when he saw Dost spitting out cake again.
