Chapter 198 The Slap of the Newly Promoted Horse
During the truce before the start of the third round of the Bundesliga, except for the nightclub episode with Franck Ribery and Schweinsteiger, Yang Mo's life was uneventful.

In the eyes of ordinary people, professional players earn a lot of money and live a colorful life.

But in fact, the life of a player with a little bit of self-control is actually very boring. Basically, apart from the game, there is a lot of personal training.

As the saying goes, one minute on stage, ten years off the stage, where ordinary people can't see, the efforts of professional players far exceed the imagination of ordinary people.

In fact, many ordinary people have fantasies that I am good at playing football, and that it might be possible to play professionally.

But there is a saying "Don't use your hobbies to challenge other people's careers". If this kind of naive fantasy is really put into practice, these people will understand why a career is a career.

Take the current Yang Mo as an example. Don't look at the fact that he was double-teamed by Werder Bremen in the last game. There were not many highlights in the whole game. Many sunspots jumped out and said that Yang Mo was no good.

But where do these people think, Yang Mo is facing a double-team defense at the Bundesliga level,

In this case, let alone let ordinary fans try it out for themselves, even if players from the other five major leagues are placed in Yang Mo's position, it may not be easy to connect the ball under double-teaming, let alone involve the defensive force to help the ball. The team creates chances and stuff like that.

Another example is the extraordinary moves that Yang Mo often makes on the field. Speaking of professional football, there are definitely not a few people who can do it, but it depends on the situation.

If in actual combat, in the state of dribbling the ball at high speed, when facing the pressure, not everyone can do it.

To make a simple comparison, if those sunspots who feel good about themselves organize a team, it is [-]% likely that they will not be able to play against the original eleventh high school team.

And if the current Yang Mo returns to the time when he participated in the high school league, with his current ability, facing the original opponent, scoring ten goals in a game will be a small number.

Therefore, the game looks simple, and it is easy to spray, but it is not as easy as imagined to actually kick it.

In the midst of training and preparations, the truce ended soon. On August 8, the third round of the Bundesliga came as scheduled.

By this time, except for La Liga, the five major leagues have all been rekindled.

Bayern, where Yang Mo is located, went to Mainz today, preparing to play an away game against the newly promoted Mainz Football Club at the Bruch Road Stadium.

After coming to the Bundesliga this season, Mainz scored two points in two games and two draws, ranking 11th in the standings. For a newly promoted horse, this performance is not too bad.

In the game against Mainz, Van Gaal still set up a 442 formation with a diamond-shaped midfielder, but he made a large-scale adjustment of personnel.

Franck Ribery, who cooperated with Yang Mo in the last game, felt uncomfortable in his ankle during the previous training. Although it was found that there was no serious problem after inspection, Van Gaal did not arrange for Ribery to be included in the squad just to be on the safe side.

In the front midfielder position, Van Gaal replaced Sosa, who performed poorly in the previous game, with Schweinsteiger.

On the defense line, Yang Mo's old teammate Bradhead started the field and served as the left back position.

The original left-back Planic was placed in the position of left-back by Van Gaal. This Croatian, who transferred to Bayern at his own expense this season, used to play as a defensive midfielder in Heerenveen in the Eredivisie. Played against it once.

On the front line, Klose is still partnered by Yang Mo. Although Yang Mo had a brilliant cooperation with Muller in the warm-up match, when the official league started, Van Gaal still trusted the veteran Klose.

For Müller, Van Gaal has been trying to put it on the right midfielder.

In the end, when Van Gaal lined up with confidence, he was ready to reap a victory to wash away the impact of the previous draw.

In the eyes of the media and fans, a mere newly promoted polo team, even if it is playing at home, is unlikely to cause any trouble to the majestic Bayern.

However, when the Bundesliga, which everyone thought was over, started, Mainz used practical actions to slap everyone in the face.

Eight minutes into the first half, after Mainz captain Hoagland received the ball in the front court, he passed the ball past Budstuber alone, and a long-range shot from outside the penalty area directly broke the Bayern goal.

When Hoagland faced Bayern, he opened the scoring in 8 minutes, and immediately huddled with his teammates excitedly.

And above the stands of the Bruch Road Stadium, seeing that their team led Bayern in the opening game, all the Mainz fans were as excited as if they were celebrating a festival, and the loud and clear singing resounded throughout the stadium.

Before the game, no one was optimistic about them, and everyone felt that the star-studded Bayern won the victory for granted.

But now, Hoagland used this goal to tell Bayern that it is not so easy to beat them.

On the other hand, whether it was the live media, the fans who came with the team, or the entire Bayern team, they were a little dumbfounded by the fact that Bayern fell behind in the first 8 minutes.

At this time, director Zhang Luzhang told the truth in the broadcast voice of the five sets of CCTV.

"Bayern feels very wrong today. Van Gaal's adjustment of the midfield does not seem to have brought good changes to Bayern. On the contrary, it is restricting Bayern's offense and defense."

"Planic is a bit rusty in the left midfielder position, and the cooperation with Yang Mo is also a bit out of touch, and..."

Although Director Zhang saw some problems in Bayern, even he couldn't imagine what kind of nightmare this game would be for Bayern.

After falling behind in the score, Bayern not only failed to regain their form, but became more completely confused.

Especially in the middle, it is exactly the same as the last game against Werder Bremen, with a possession rate of more than 60.00%, but it has been unable to bring goals for a long time.

On the contrary, after taking the lead, Mainz played steadily, relying on counterattacks to constantly threaten Bayern's goal.

In the 25th minute of the first half, Mainz launched an attack from the left. When Schurrle faced Lahm's defense, he chose a through pass and sent the ball to Austrian teammate Ivan Schitz.

After receiving the ball, Ivan Schitz pushed a shot from the front of the penalty area. Bayern goalkeeper Lensing dropped the ball and watched the football bounce into the net weakly.

2-0, at this time, Yang Mo, who was cruising in the frontcourt, saw that his team was two goals behind, and he was stunned.

From the beginning of this game to the present, Bayern's midfield problems not only caused him to be unable to receive support in the frontcourt, but now even the defense has become a mess.

Looking at the score of 2-0, Yang Mo felt extremely glaring.

Who would have thought that Bayern, the majestic Bundesliga class bully who claimed to be returning to the top before the season, would play like this against a newly promoted polo team.
