Start from 1999

Chapter 29 Nick's Trouble

(Happy weekend, everyone! Come on for favorites and recommendations, otherwise how can the pig's feet grow up?)

The process of adopting Su Ling was surprisingly smooth, and Su Ling's willingness was even more crucial.It's great to be able to continue living with my lover from the previous life, but I'm an 8-year-old girl now, so I'm really anxious.

Five days later, all the formalities were completed, and Nick took Su Ling on the plane back to China.

Before returning to Germany, Nick donated 100 million RMB to the Love Orphanage to thank the hospital for its contribution to society.In fact, there is another meaning to thank the hospital for taking in Su Ling, so that I can see her again.

However, Nick's reputation has been spread in Kyoto. Such a kind-hearted German player is simply a model among football players. When people think of the winners in China, they can't help feeling like they hate iron and steel. They are all football players. Why is there such a big gap in life?
At the airport, Hansen saw his son off. Since he wanted to explore the Chinese market, Hansen decided to stay in China for a few more days.

Hansen looked at Su Ling beside Nick and asked, "Son, are you really taking her back? Will Mina be angry?"

"Dad, don't worry about it. This is my Chinese sister. Why is Mina angry? Besides, that girl is heartless. She always wants her brother to have a bad life. She must laugh at me now. She won't be angry." Nick said, but whether Mina will accept Su Ling is really not sure.

"Actually, it's nothing. There are many children in the family. Your mother will be happy to know." Hansen actually likes Su Ling quite a lot. This little Chinese girl is very cute, just like a porcelain doll.It's no wonder that Mrs. Hansen didn't feel sorry for taking her home. Mina's position might be replaced by Su Ling.

Back in Borussia Mönchengladbach, Nick led Su Ling back home. After Mrs. Hansen learned about the situation, she happily accepted the fact that she had another "daughter". Ever since Nick played football, Mina studied acting, and Mr. Hansen took an agent course, she was often the only one at home. With this "daughter", Mrs. Hansen would not be lonely.

After handing over Su Ling to Mrs. Hansen, Nick devoted himself to resuming training. Due to the coming of the European Cup in 2000, the Bundesliga was suspended for one round and would not resume until April 4.

Two of the Borussia Mönchengladbach team also returned to the national team to participate in the competition. On April 4, the players all returned to the team. Now that they are back, everyone is talking about the competition of their respective national teams.

Anderson's Swedish team first defeated Luxembourg 2:0, and Anderson also scored a goal with a header.Subsequently, the Swedish team defeated the Polish team 1:0, leading the group with 12 points in four consecutive victories.

So Anderson is in a great mood.

But Peterson's Danish team lost to Italy 1:2, and only scored 4 points after 2 rounds, which is really sympathetic.And Peterson didn't come on as a substitute until the 88th minute of the game, and the game ended without even touching the ball. The depression in Peterson's heart almost suffocated him to death.

The expressions of the two were very different at the moment, which made the teammates ridicule endlessly.

The German national team that Nick is most concerned about has two consecutive 1-0 wins over Northern Ireland and Finland. However, the employment of Ribeck has been unanimously criticized by the media. Veteran Matthaus still appears in the position of sweeper, but the middle lane he guards has been hit by the Northern Ireland team and the Finnish team.

For a while, the media and fans called for a new German scavenger wave after wave.

Many fans asked Ribeck to take Matthaus out of the main lineup and use Kaiserslautern's core Ballack, who has played extremely well this season.

Some fans also believe that Bayern's midfielder Jerry Mays has a high level and can become the main midfielder of the national team.

There are also many people who support Leverkusen's midfielder Ramello. The 25-year-old midfielder has led Leverkusen to catch up with Bayern Munich this season. His level is stable and his age is very reasonable. He is about to enter the golden period.

But Borussia Mönchengladbach coach Karl made a surprising statement, claiming that there is no one more suitable than Borussia Mönchengladbach's captain Nick in the position of sweeper of the German national team.

Karl's words immediately triggered a war of words among German fans. Fans from Kaiserslautern, Leverkusen, and Bayern Munich yelled at Karl for nepotism, while fans of Borussia Mönchengladbach retorted, thinking that their idol was not worth mentioning in front of Borussia Mönchengladbach captain Nick.

Therefore, the atmosphere on the training ground today is a little different.

The fans who came to watch the training from the sidelines were chanting Nick's name and supporting him to join the national team.

"Captain, it doesn't make sense for you not to enter the German national team at this level. I have already received a call from the coach of the Brazilian national team, Luxenberg." Everton followed Nick to fight the injustice.

"That's right, Captain, the qualifiers are really useless. If you play, you will definitely crush the midfielders of Northern Ireland and Finland." Dex also chimed in.

Nick didn't answer. To be honest, he was only 16 years old, so it was reasonable for him not to be favored by Ribeck, but if he could enter the national team, he might have to create some records.

But the German national team did not play well, and Nick was also anxious. He also watched the games against Northern Ireland and Finland. Matthaeus is indeed old, and it is difficult for him to undertake such an important task.If it was me, hmph, would a big belly like Northern Ireland dare to be brave?How dare a small island like Finland challenge the German team?
It would be fine if I didn't stop playing and show my best side, I believe Riebeck will not be indifferent.Tomorrow's game against Hertha Berlin, I still can't play, which is another opportunity to show myself.

On the training ground, Nick pumped the ball fiercely, venting his depression.It didn't take long for the substitute goalkeeper Albustin to escape.

"Hey, why is there no goalkeeper? Torsten, what are you doing? Hurry up and keep the goal. I want to practice shooting for a while." Nick shouted dissatisfied.

"Captain, I don't dare to guard the goal for you anymore. Look at my hand, it's red. If it goes on like this, I'll be shot and swollen by you." Albusdin walked over and held out his hands for Nick to see.

It was only then that Nick realized that he had gone too far. The shots just now were all powerful. Albustin blocked a few of them, but he also paid a heavy price.

"I'm sorry, Torsten, I'm in a bad mood and I've wronged you." Nick apologized.

Albustin was older, and knew that Nick was in a bad mood. Anyone who encountered such a thing would probably be sad. When the club and the national team needed him most, he could only sit on the sidelines. This is really torture.

"Forget it, Nick, there is no way you can do this. After the next round, you will be able to play again. Let's go to Nuremberg to kick the little brother from Munich. As long as you persist, will the door of the national team be open for you? Don't worry, I thought of the European Cup qualifiers in June, and you will definitely be selected for the national team. Now you have to cheer up and help Borussia Monchengladbach avoid relegation. Everyone is watching you."

Albustin's words tapped gently in Nick's heart, and Nick suddenly relaxed.

"Torsten, thank you for your persuasion, I'm much better now." Nick said with a smile, "Hey, guys, come here, come here!"

Hearing Nick's shout, everyone ran over.

"Hey, guys, tomorrow's game is a great opportunity to prove you. The opponent is the top three teams. If you can kill such a strong opponent, the opponents behind us will tremble, and Borussia Mönchengladbach's confidence will also be unprecedentedly high. Do you want to win such an opponent?"

"think!!!"

Nick's encouragement won the respect of his teammates, and everyone roared in unison.

"Okay, I'll cheer you on from the stands, remember, Borussia Mönchengladbach's goal is not to avoid relegation! We're going to be the team of 1999, let the teams ahead of us go to hell!"

"well said!!!"

"Come on, Borussia!"

"Kill the Berliners!"
