Chapter 699: Will There Be Regrets? (Second Perspective)

On September 27th, in the 6th round of the Bundesliga, Werder Bremen hosted Wolfsburg at home.

Wolfsburg, hailing from Saxony, came with great momentum, but Werder Bremen had remained undefeated at home this season, and they wanted to maintain this record.

Fans began to enter the Weser Stadium early, waving team flags and singing team songs, making every effort to create a home atmosphere.

Although Werder Bremen had fallen from its peak, their football market was still hot, albeit lacking some passion. The team's outstanding performance in recent seasons has restored confidence, and the atmosphere they create at home is no less intimidating than that of the Allianz Arena or the Westfalenstadion!

"In Bremen, there is a river flowing quietly past the Weser Stadium, and our home is here. We are the wizards of Werder Bremen, celebrating victory with laughter and joy."

To the melodious melody, players from both sides took to the field. The home team players stood tall and felt encouraged, with cheers and applause accompanying their every attack.

In contrast, when Wolfsburg players had the ball, they were met with jeers and insults.

The away team could be said to be star-studded. Head coach Oliver Glasner deployed a 4-5-1 formation, with the famous former Bayern striker, Croatian veteran Ivica Olic, leading the attack.

Midfielders Gustavo, Caligiuri, Vieirinha, and others were well-known, while defenders Sebastien Jung and R. Rodriguez each had their own characteristics.

In terms of starting lineup value, Wolfsburg was worth a whopping 200 million euros, twice as much as Werder Bremen's 100 million.

However, football matches are not only about comparing values; factors such as venue, atmosphere, and form can all affect the outcome. The home team obviously had the upper hand, so they had the advantage.

"Wolfsburg invested heavily in signings this summer, and even competed with us for the ownership of De Bruyne at one point. But from their current performance, it seems that they haven't improved much."

"Oh? Look at Bremen's attack this time, breaking through, shooting!! Goal!!"

"Kevin De Bruyne!!"

The Weser Stadium seemed to explode like ignited gunpowder, with thunderous cheers echoing throughout the space.

The Belgian, who opened the scoring, excitedly jumped and waved his fists twice. Although his celebration was still somewhat simple, it finally carried some momentum.

Yellow Tiger jumped onto De Bruyne's back: "Hey, why don't you do a slide, it would be more imposing."

"I don't want to end up like Robben, failing to slide and ending up rolling on the ground like a dog, becoming everyone's laughingstock." De Bruyne rolled his eyes.

Last season in the Bundesliga, the Dutchman, representing Bayern, staged such a ridiculous scene when he broke the deadlock. He wanted to slide in celebration, but he suddenly bumped into the grass and stopped abruptly, losing his balance and rolling several times.

"The grass at the Allianz Arena is too hard!" Robben complained in an interview, and there were even rumors that Bayern had increased the amount of watering around the pitch to prevent such incidents from happening again.

The restless netizens would not easily let go of such a joke. Now, the Dutchman's embarrassing moment has been made into a short video and spread like wildfire worldwide.

"Let's review the whole process of this wonderful goal again. De Bruyne received the ball in midfield from Garcia's pass and immediately sent a through ball to Hajrovic."

"The latter broke through along the sideline, faced Rodriguez's defense, suddenly decelerated and cut inside, then passed to Selke."

"The German forward received the ball with his back to the goal, turned and sent a diagonal pass into the defense, and Yellow Tiger's timing was perfect, not offside."

"In the penalty area, Yellow Tiger backheeled the ball to De Bruyne who was running in, unmarked!"

"Let's see how he handles it, dribbling forward on his own!"

Approaching the edge of the penalty area, the Belgian sent a shot into the top left corner of the goal with a side volley, bypassing the crowd in the penalty area and leaving Wolfsburg goalkeeper Benaglio with no chance to react.

"Gooooooooooooooooooal! Goal! De Bruyne scores with a volley!"

"This is De Bruyne's first brace since joining Werder Bremen, and it came so quickly!"

"Yellow Tiger's cross, Selke's layoff, and De Bruyne's side volley on the edge of the penalty area created this brilliant goal!"

"In the final moments of the game, he made a remarkable contribution to the home team. If Werder Bremen can secure victory, the Belgian will undoubtedly be the deserved Man of the Match!"

"I wonder if the management of Wolfsburg will regret it now. According to the media, if they had offered another 5 million euros, they could have persuaded Chelsea to sell De Bruyne to them. However, they missed this rare opportunity."
