Capítulo 56: Chapter 56 We Are The Champions! Goal Bundesliga!
Reflecting on the unforgettable German Cup semi-final,
The memories of Union Berlin fans are still vivid.
No one will ever forget that night at the Allianz Arena!
In the hospital ward, Uncle Hans brought some old friends to visit Mr. Lehmann.
His condition had worsened recently, but now he was stable.
To ease Bud's worries, they began reminiscing about the classic semi-final.
"Remember when Robben scored? We were all devastated."
"Yeah, I thought the game was over for us."
"It's a shame." Hogan sighed, "It was so close."
Uncle Hans smiled, "We didn't win, but we went down fighting."
In the 59th minute of the game, Robben's goal put Bayern ahead 4-1 against Union Berlin.
The team was almost hopeless, but Su Luo kept pushing forward.
Despite the team's desperate defense, he even dropped back to his own penalty area to challenge Toni Kroos for a header!
Su Luo's relentless effort paid off. In the 62nd minute, he intercepted Schweinsteiger's pass in the midfield and dribbled the ball forward at top speed.
Fans vividly recalled the excitement as Su Luo embarked on a solo run!
Facing opposition from Cologne's defense, Su Luo displayed remarkable skill, maneuvering past defenders and charging into the opponent's box!
Dante and Boateng attempted to stop him, but Su Luo's slick moves left them in his wake!
His agility and precision mesmerized the entire Allianz Arena!
Despite Neuer's attempt to block his shot, Su Luo skillfully dribbled past him and slotted the ball into the empty net!
4-2! Su Luo's solo effort breathed new life into the game!
This goal was hailed as one of the top 10 goals in German football that week, ranking number one!
Fans watched replays of this spectacular goal countless times.
"I think the next goal was even more incredible."
Hogan's sentiment resonated with everyone.
Just 5 minutes after Su Luo's solo run, he pulled off another stunning move.
Under tight defense, Su Luo retreated from the penalty area.
Then, with Schweinsteiger and Ram closely marking him,
He unleashed a powerful long-range shot that flew past Neuer's outstretched fingers like a cannonball!
The former "World's Number One Goalkeeper" was rendered powerless against Su Luo's skill!
4-3! A remarkable equalizer!
The Allianz Arena fell silent!
In the close-up shot, Guardiola appeared stunned, frozen for 5 seconds!
Even the Bayern players seemed bewildered.
Could they be facing an upset?
If the game continued as it was, Union Berlin might overthrow the Bundesliga giants!
Their momentum was unstoppable, and the team's morale soared!
Unfortunately, a red card disrupted the balance.
Captain Matuschka collided with Toni Kroos during a tackle,
It seemed like a routine defensive move, with no malicious intent.
But the referee's judgment was harsh,
He showed Matuschka a second yellow card, resulting in a red card!
Matuschka was sent off the field!
After the game, the media criticized the referee's decision, suggesting it was overly harsh.
In the Premier League, such a tackle would rarely be penalized with a yellow card.
Sadly, the decision couldn't be reversed.
Ejman, fueled by excitement, questioned the referee's call,
Perhaps a bit too vocally,
He too was shown a yellow card, resulting in a second sending-off!
It was Su Luo who calmed his teammates down, preventing a bigger conflict.
Otherwise, Union Berlin might have ended up with three players sent off and a certain defeat.
Referee Gagman later admitted his mistake, tweeting:
"At the time, I let my emotions get the best of me. I thought he was going to attack me. Only upon reviewing the footage did I realize he was merely expressing frustration, with no intention of violence."
Union Berlin appealed to the German Football Association, resulting in a three-match ban for referee Gagmann.
Unfortunately, the game's outcome remained unchanged. A loss was still a loss.
With two players sent off, Union Berlin collapsed completely, and even Su Luo couldn't salvage the situation.
In the end, Bayern scored two more goals, winning the German Cup semi-final 6-4 against Dortmund.
Guardiola had anticipated an easy victory,
But due to Su Luo's performance, they faced their toughest battle of the season!
Their Champions League quarter-final against Manchester United seemed like a cakewalk in comparison!
This German Cup semi-final inflicted significant damage on Bayern Munich.
Four days later, in the Champions League quarter-final first leg at the Bernabeu,
They suffered a 3-0 defeat against Real Madrid!
Bayern's downfall began from that moment!
In the second leg at the Allianz Arena, Real Madrid thrashed Bayern 4-0, knocking out the Bundesliga giants.
Guardiola was left to rue his decisions.
If he had known the German Cup semi-final would be so challenging,
He might have prioritized the Champions League over the cup, potentially giving them a better chance against Real Madrid.
Who would have thought that a Bundesliga team led by Su Luo would pose such a formidable challenge!
Su Luo had become Bayern Munich and Guardiola's worst nightmare.
His four goals had nearly toppled the Bundesliga giants!
...
"Alright, it's almost time to head to the stadium. Let's go support the team."
"Yes, this is our final battle. It's do or die!"
"I believe Su Luo will lead us to victory!"
Hogan expressed unwavering confidence in Su Luo.
"I believe in Su Big Brother too!" Little Anya chimed in.
Hans patted Bud on the shoulder.
"Just stay here with the old man. Your cheers won't be missed."
"Nonsense, I'll be right there with you in spirit!"
Hans nodded and stood up.
"The final match of the Bundesliga, the Iron Alliance is on the march!"
...
Since being defeated by Su Luo's hat-trick in the first leg,
Cologne coach Storger had been studying Su Luo for the entire season.
Confidently, he declared in the pre-match press conference:
"In this match, we can definitely contain Su Luo!"
But reality proved him wrong.
Compared to the grueling battle against Bayern,
This match proceeded without twists and turns,
It was smoother than butter.
Within just 10 minutes,
Su Luo took the lead with a powerful shot from outside the penalty area!
It was as if the ball had punched Cologne coach Storger in the face!
"Incredible! Unbelievable!"
"Su Luo strikes again with a world-class goal!"
"The Cologne goalkeeper managed to block three shots in a row, but he couldn't stop this one!"
"Su Luo seems to have evolved, his shots are faster and more precise!"
"This is his 33rd league goal of the season! He's undoubtedly secured the Bundesliga Golden Boot!"
"Su Luo will also become the youngest Bundesliga Golden Boot winner in German football history!"
After conceding, Cologne attempted to counterattack.
They hoped to secure promotion despite losing this match, but it would be humiliating to be defeated and lose the championship to Union Berlin!
So Cologne pressed forward, hoping to pose a threat like in the first leg.
However, the current Union Berlin was no longer the same team from earlier in the season.
After their surprising comeback against Leverkusen and nearly toppling Bayern Munich,
Everyone in the team had embraced the high-stakes nature of Bundesliga football!
Playing like stars, they were simply unstoppable!
Cologne's attacks were no match for Union Berlin!
They weathered Cologne's assaults and fed the ball to Su Luo!
Everyone was feeding the ball to Su Luo!
And Su Luo didn't disappoint his teammates!
After the loss to Bayern Munich, he was determined!
His anger wouldn't subside until they defeated Bayern next season!
And now, the Cologne team had tragically become Su Luo's punching bag!
"Hat-trick!!! Su Luo completes his 7th hat-trick of the season!"
"After leading the team to victory, he scores again in the second half!"
"Union Berlin is dominating Cologne 3-0!"
"It's a celebration for Union Berlin!!!"
"Although there are still 15 minutes left in the game, I can confidently declare!"
"Union Berlin will be the Bundesliga champions this season!"
"Congratulations to this resilient team in advance, welcome to the Bundesliga!!!"
...
In the hospital ward, Bud watched the TV screen,
Tears of joy streaming down his wrinkled face.
The game wasn't over yet, but he was already looking forward to the Bundesliga.
It was the first time in the club's history that they had reached the Bundesliga!
It was a shame that he couldn't celebrate with the fans at home.
"Cough...cough...what's happening? Did we... did we win?"
Old Man Lyman slowly woke up, struggling to speak.
Bud squeezed his father's hand tightly, holding back tears, and nodded vigorously.
"Yes! We did it! Su Luo led us to victory! We're the champions!"
At the same time, jubilant cheers erupted from the TV.
The commentator's voice was barely audible.
On the screen, countless fans in red jerseys poured onto the field from the stands like a crimson tide!
In the ward, even the young nurse couldn't hold back her tears.
Mr. Lehman's eyes sparkled with the last glimmer of life.
"Good... so good..."
"Promotion... we'll stick with the team in the future... fight on..."
Beep—
The cold beeping of the vital signs monitor mingled with the joyous sounds from the TV and filled the air in Berlin!
"I will, father. Whatever happens in the Bundesliga, we'll experience it together!"
...
At that moment, the stadium of the old forest management office was engulfed in a sea of red!
This team, belonging to the working class, this iron alliance, had finally reached the Bundesliga as champions!
Players and fans were indistinguishable, blending into one entity.
Su Luo, the season's biggest hero, was hoisted high by the sea of red, receiving the adoration of every spectator!
"Su Luo!"
"Su Luo!"
"Su Luo!"
The fans hailed him like a king,
Conducting a special coronation ceremony,
Congratulations to the new king of the old forest management office stadium!
Su Luo's name had spread to every corner of East Berlin through the TV!
And from there, it would spread across Europe and the world!
At this moment, his journey to the pinnacle of football had just begun!
