Chapter 51 Exchange jerseys

Dortmund's players were very disappointed. They tried their best and did the best they could, but they still lost the game and watched their opponents win the championship. This sense of loss and frustration made many young players red. Eye sockets.

Werder Bremen's players seemed very graceful at this time. While celebrating, they did not forget to run over to comfort their opponents.

Dortmund's performance in this game was outstanding. Even as an opponent, they have to admit that their fighting spirit and ability to come back from adversity are frightening.

Seriously speaking, Dortmund is definitely stronger than Werder Bremen.

On the one hand, they lost because they did not expect their opponent to use this tactic similar to a sneak attack and were caught off guard;

On the other hand, it was because the team's mentality was not stable enough. After conceding the ball in the first half, it was unable to regain its form and wasted a lot of time.

Once they completely overcome these problems, they will probably become stronger in the new season.

"Next time we meet them, we may not be able to win!"

Fritz stood next to Lin Quan and said with some emotion.

Dortmund's squad is very young and their players are still on the rise.

As long as such a team does not suffer large-scale injuries or open a player supermarket, it will not sell its captain every year like Arsenal.

Then their competitiveness in the Bundesliga may last for a long time.

It's hard to say whether they can continue to overthrow Bayern, but other Bundesliga teams will never take advantage when facing them.

"Haha, I'm afraid they will hold grudges and beat us to death next time they meet us!"

Hearing Lin Quan's words, Fritz couldn't help laughing:

If you steal the championship at your opponent's doorstep, it would be strange if your opponent doesn't hold a grudge!

At this time, players from Werder Bremen and Dortmund have begun to exchange jerseys.

In this game, both sides recognized the other's strength.

Lin Quan was young and thought no one would exchange jerseys with him.

Unexpectedly, Royce and Gotze came together and took the initiative to exchange jerseys with him.

Gotze suffered an eye disease before the game and sat on the bench for the entire game and did not play.

His absence was one of the reasons why Dortmund lost.

Although he did not play, Gotze felt that he was the core of Dortmund's midfield and Reus was just a newcomer to the team.

Therefore, Gotze believes that Lin Quan will probably exchange jerseys with the more famous him.

But to his surprise, Lin Quan chose Royce.

Lin Quan admires Royce's character very much. In the era of commercial football, there are too few players like him who can play for one person and one city.

Compared with Royce, who has one man and one city, Lin Quan doesn't like Gotze very much.

It's hard to say how much of Dortmund's loss of the Champions League title in the 12-13 season was due to Gotze, but privately contacting and transferring to the final opponent on the eve of the competition definitely had a huge impact on the team's morale.

Even if Gotze contacted Bayern and transferred after losing in the Champions League, the criticism he received would not be so great.

The former is more like Bayern using a conspiracy before the final to demoralize the opponent by poaching the opponent's core midfielder.

The latter can only be regarded as Gotze Muqiang at best. If he can't beat him, he will join.

In football, there are many people who join just because they can't beat them. There are three in Arsenal alone. Henry, Robin van Persie and Cesc Fabregas have all done this.

Royce was a little surprised that Lin Quan would exchange jerseys with him, so after getting the opponent's green No. 10 jersey, he took the initiative to give his opponent a hug.

"You played really well in this game. Come on, keep playing like this. I look forward to the day when you become famous in the Bundesliga!"

Lin Quan was also surprised. He didn't expect to get Royce's affirmation and blessing.

So he also said: "Thank you, Marco, next time I go to Bremen to play, I will treat you to dinner!"

Royce nodded and agreed: "It's a deal, but I can't treat you to dinner today, I'm sorry!"

Lin Quan smiled and expressed his understanding. At this time, even if Royce invited him to dinner out of courtesy, he would refuse. If this was seen by Dortmund fans, then Royce might not have to hang out here.

It's taboo to talk lightly and talk deeply. Although Lin Quan really wanted to persuade Royce to take more rest to reduce injuries.

But the two of them had just met, and it was very abrupt for him to say such words now, and the other party would definitely not listen.

So we can only wait until the two of us get to know each other gradually in the future, and then we can advise each other as friends!

I hope that before then, his life in Dortmund will be smoother and he will not suffer so many injuries!

…

Werder Bremen did not stay at the Westfalenstadion for too long for fear of angering the 80,000 home fans and causing an accident.

After receiving the award, he quickly took the bus and left here.

At noon the next day, after resting all night, all members of Werder Bremen, who had regained their energy, took the ICE intercity express back to Bremen.

The distance from Dortmund to Bremen is not too far, and Germany's intercity express lines (high-speed rail) are also very developed, so the team arrived at the station in just one hour.

After returning to the club, club manager Alofs came in front of everyone carrying a suitcase.

"Welcome our warriors to triumph!"

He happily gave every player on the team, including the substitutes, a warm hug one by one.

Then he opened the suitcase in front of the players:

"This is the Telecom Cup winning bonus received from the Football Association and sponsors, a total of 300,000 euros!"

Seeing a suitcase of cash, the players seemed to realize something. They stopped what they were doing and looked at Alofs intently.

Werder Bremen is not a wealthy club, and the salaries of the players are not high.

After losing Pizarro, Wiese and other team veterans, Werder Bremen's average annual salary this season has dropped to the level of the lower reaches of the Bundesliga. The highest salary in the team is captain Clemens Fritz, with an annual salary Only 2.2 million euros.

For players from the youth team like Phil Kruger, his salary is even lower. It is estimated that his weekly salary is only about 3,000 euros, and his annual salary will not exceed 200,000 euros.

So for the players, the bonus of 300,000 euros is still very attractive.

"The team will allocate bonuses based on each player's contribution in the game. If you have no objections, you can line up and come to me to sign and claim it!"

After saying that, he asked the staff to register on site and directly distribute the bonus.

Although Werder Bremen is a little poorer, the club does not intend to get involved with the money.

It wasn’t much money anyway, and besides, I never expected to win the championship before, so this money was an unexpected income.

It is better to reward the players and encourage them to continue to work hard on the field and achieve good results in the new season.

This approach has certainly won praise from the players.

The players had no objections to the bonus distribution plan, so they signed to receive their own bonuses.

Lin Quan's performance in these two games was very good and he was the core of the offense, so he received the first bonus - 20,000 euros!

There are only five people in this group. Except for Lin Quan, the remaining four are the main players of the team who have played two games and performed well, including De Bruyne.

The second level of bonus is 10,000 euros, awarded to the team's main players and important rotation players who played the game.

The third level is 5,000 euros, and is awarded to players who are on the squad but did not participate in the game, as well as club staff.

After receiving the money, the players' minds were immediately no longer on the training ground.

Especially the young players who had little money in their hands before, or who had given it to their parents, were all distracted and their hearts had already flown to no one knows where!

Upon seeing this, Coach Schaff immediately announced the disbandment and gave the players three days of leave.

Just after announcing the holiday, he told the young players not to mess around outside. If they cause any negative news, the team will not tolerate them!
