Chapter 149 The pressure is off
Time is slowly passing, and the game has reached the 90th minute.

Now the score between the two sides is still 0 to 0, and Cottbus is fighting for the last chance.

"Adriano broke into Longtan alone again! He carried Simunić on his shoulders, and blasted another shot!"

"The ball went off the baseline against the post! What a pity!"

"This time it was Cassano's performance! He swayed left and right in the penalty area and broke through two defensive players in a row. This is an opportunity!"

"Friedrich tackled the ball out of the baseline! Cassano fell in the penalty area at the same time! Is this a penalty?"

"Cottbus players surrounded the referee to protest, but the referee pointed to the corner, it was just a corner!"

"It's the 92nd minute now, the three-minute stoppage time is coming to an end, and this corner may be Cottbus' last chance."

"The ball was taken by Yu Hai. Yu Hai passed the ball to the near post! Cassano poked it with his foot! The ball was hugged by the goalkeeper! Hertha Berlin blocked the corner kick!"

"The referee blew the whistle for the end of the game!"

"The two sides competed fiercely in this game, but the final score was only fixed at 0-0, and the two sides had a draw."

"Hertha Berlin was able to draw with Cottbus, which is in the limelight, and they did a good job defending today."

"However, Cottbus ended its eighth consecutive league victory at the Berlin Olympic Stadium. This draw may mean that they have stepped down from the altar. Perhaps in the next period of time, Cottbus will encounter great difficulties."

"Whether Yunsheng's vow to win the championship can be realized in the end, and how Cottbus will perform next, let us wait and see!"

After the game, when Hertha Berlin coach Hainei was interviewed, his expression was very peaceful.

"Although we are playing at home today, we are playing against the top of the Bundesliga, so we can accept this draw."

On the other side, Yun Sheng was also very satisfied with the draw.

When a reporter asked him what he thought of the team's eight-game winning streak ended, Yun Sheng seemed calm.

"I remember that many of your media have reported that our eight-game winning streak is just luck, and we are still a relegation team. You are right, we are just a relegation team, and our goal this season is just relegation. So we were able to score one point at Hertha Berlin's home court in this game. I am very satisfied with the result."

A young reporter asked persistently: "You are only two points ahead of Bayern. If Bayern wins this round, they will return to the top position. What do you think about this?"

Yunsheng smiled indifferently: "They are Bayern, one of the best football clubs in Germany. Isn't it normal that they surpass Cottbus? The combined value of our players is not enough for their transfer fee this summer. I never think that our strength on paper is better than Bayern. Our goal is very simple, to play every game well, that's all."

On the club bus back to Cottbus, the entire Cottbus team looked a bit listless.

Although Yunsheng didn't care much about the draw, the players were still quite disappointed with the end of the eight-game winning streak.

Adriano was upset: "If my shot can be more accurate, it won't hit the crossbar. We can at least score a goal today and go home with three points!"

After finishing speaking, he slammed the front seat with his fist, and the young Shaheen was almost hurt by his neck...

Yu Hai next to him was also very frustrated: "This game was really frustrating. We obviously had the advantage on the court, but we were still tied by them. Sigh..."

Goalkeeper Hildebrand also shook his head again and again: "The eight-game winning streak has been terminated, this feeling is really uncomfortable."

Not only the players, but even the coaching staff headed by Sandel and Sumard were unhappy and in a low mood.

Seeing everyone's emotions, Yun Sheng smiled instead.

His smile completely fooled everyone.

"Coach, what's the matter with you?" Shaojia, who has the best relationship with Yunsheng, asked tentatively.

Yun Sheng stood up from the seat in the front row, came to the aisle of the bus, looked around, and then slowly expressed his thoughts with a smile on his face.

"Guys, we didn't win this game. I am actually as frustrated as you are. But I am very relieved to see each of you. Why? Because you don't think of yourself as a relegation team anymore!"

"Hertha Berlin ranked tenth in the league last season. They are a mid-range team. With our strength last season, it was not easy to take away a point at their home court. But we drew today, and everyone is very dissatisfied. This proves that you are full of confidence in yourself! It proves that you already have strong self-confidence!"

"Sauer said a few days ago that the biggest gap between us and Bayern is the 'overwhelming domineering self-confidence'. But now I am very pleased that you are making great strides towards a strong team! As long as you can maintain this mental state, you will be able to achieve ideal results at the end of the season, I can guarantee it!"

Hearing what Yun Sheng said, the eyes of the team members who had been dull just now suddenly became brighter. They felt that the resentment in their hearts gradually disappeared, and what followed was longing and anticipation for the future!

But at this time, Cassano, who was not far from Yunsheng, suddenly spoke, and he said something out of place.

"Coach, since you are so optimistic about the team and us, why did you say in the pre-match press conference that our goal is to avoid relegation?"

Sumad glanced at Cassano, and muttered in a low voice: "This guy is not popular in any team, there must be a reason..."

Yun Sheng looked at Cassano, and slowly opened his mouth.

"The reason why I say that the team's goal is relegation is for one purpose, that is, not to let the team be on the cusp of the storm. If we act in a low-key manner, according to our Huaguo dialect, there will be a feeling of 'pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger', so that the opponents will not take us too seriously. Even if we win the league eight times in a row, in the eyes of these people, we are still the relegation team last season, and the opponent's tactical arrangements and player deployment will be unconsciously careless."

"But it's no longer possible. We have been completely exposed to the eyes of all teams. Just like Hertha Berlin today, they even set up a bus with us at home. This was absolutely impossible in the past."

"However, this draw also has certain advantages, that is, the pressure on our team has finally been relieved."
