Back from Chemnitz, Kaiserslautern hosted Zwickau at home and cleanly defeated this East German team 4-0, also indirectly avenging Chemnitz.

  Although the start was slightly sticky, as the game progressed, after 14 rounds, Kaiserslautern remained unbeaten with a record of 12 wins and 2 draws, standing out from the rest, and was hailed as the most powerful contender for the German Second Division title this season. What's even more surprising is that this team's offense is extremely impressive.

  If last season's 13-game winning streak in Chemnitz gave people the impression of a solid and unbreakable defense, then this season in Kaiserslautern, Yang Chen has shown his deep understanding of tactical offense.

  Especially in the recent rounds, with Denilson's state recovering, Marshall, Denilson and Barak's attacking combination is unmatched in the 2nd Bundesliga, and with the help of players like Fritz and Niedzwiecki on the side, Kaiserslautern's attack has become unstoppable.

  As the game won, Yang Cheng also accumulated achievement points, but he didn't store them up, instead using them all to upgrade his players and team's strength as much as possible, which gradually improved Kaiserslautern's situation.

  In the assessment of the Super Coach system, Kaiser's strength is obviously higher than other Bundesliga teams, and even compared to mid-table teams in the Bundesliga, it gives Yang Cheng a sense of confidence.

  "What would Trapattoni do if we take advantage of the home field in the German Cup and launch a massive attack on Bayern Munich?" Yang Cheng suddenly asked with a smile, throwing out an idea that made everyone feel bold.

  Bayern Munich's strength is self-evident, and in the impression of German teams, it is almost a synonym for strong, especially for a 2nd Bundesliga team like Kaiserslautern, they are even more intimidated by Bayern.

  So as soon as the German Cup round of 16 draw came out, outsiders began to sing a sad song for Kaiserslautern, thinking that this team had already been eliminated in advance, because Trapattoni's team would not fall behind a second division team.

  "Defensive counterattack? Or will they be more aggressive?" Yang Cheng sneered as he stood up from his office desk, "Do you think Trapattoni would take the initiative with an away game tactic?"

  Paul Beyer, Tim Hunk, Moniz and Mullenstein, the coaching staff in Yang Cheng's office, couldn't help but exchange a glance, secretly finding it amusing.

  Indeed, Trapattoni this season brought his 1:0 functional football from Italy to Bayern, and he did it with great determination and thoroughness, which greatly reduced the overall watchability of the team, really a shame for those top stars in Bayern.

  But things should also be looked at in reverse, Trapattoni's arrival has also made Bayern's performance very stable, although there is also a 3-0 loss to Werder Bremen away from home, but not rare is the 4-0 thrashing of Duisburg on the road, and more are one-ball victories in steady games, which makes Bayern keep pace with Leverkusen, Dortmund and Stuttgart at the top of the league standings, believing that as Trapattoni's coaching philosophy takes hold, Bayern's performance will become more and more outstanding.

  "If outsiders heard you, they'd think you're jealous of him!" Paul Bier joked.

  Yang Cheng ignored what the reporters said, he was guessing Trapattoni's tactical intentions in his heart. "Even against Freiburg, it was a steady game first, and then slowly plotting, resulting in losing the initiative, ending up with an away 0:0, missing the best opportunity to top the league, Trapattoni's conservatism is evident!"

  Freiburg is also one of the famous soft persimmons in the Bundesliga this season. So far, they have only won 1-0 at home against Rostock, who are also deeply involved in the relegation zone. Apart from that, all other 12 games were lost. Unexpectedly, in the 14th round, they met a conservative Trapattoni, and both sides ended up with a 0-0 draw.

  Yang Cheng walked out of the office desk and came to the coaching staff, "To be honest, with our team's current momentum, I don't think our goal should just be promotion to the top division, what do you guys think?"

  Everyone was stunned at once, and their eyes looking at Yang Cheng were filled with surprise.

  "You may think I'm being overly ambitious, but I really believe we should set higher expectations for the team, such as European competitions and the German Cup. I don't know how far we can go, but I think this is a great opportunity to challenge ourselves. If we miss it, maybe one day we'll regret today's cowardice!"

  Paul Beyer just thought for a moment, then shrugged his shoulders, "You are the head coach of the team, and the team's strategic direction should be up to you to decide, we only have the part of obeying and listening!"

  Everyone else also burst out laughing and expressed their agreement, but in their hearts, they all thought that Yang Cheng's idea was too bold.

  The German Cup met Bayern, the European Super Cup met Liverpool, both are top European teams, but he seems to be eager to compete with these top teams.

  "That's it, let's save some energy for our next away game against Oldenburg!" Yang Cheng said with a pat.

  Due to the two games against Oldenburg and Bayern being only 2 days apart, Kaiserslautern had to make concessions in their schedule. Yang Chen wanted to fight on two fronts, so he naturally didn't plan to exhaust himself against Oldenburg.

  "For me, a strong opponent is undoubtedly a test of one's own strength, and also the best opportunity to stimulate one's own potential!"

  …………

  Saturday, Oldenburg in northern Germany

  "Take them down!"

  "Get their feet! Take down that juggler!"

  "Kill him! Kill that son of a bitch!"

  "Presiding judge, are you blind? I know where your family lives! I'll definitely go find them!"

  The stands were filled with the roar of fans like thugs, each one seeming to emerge from hell as a bellowing creature, their faces red and screaming in the stands, making unreasonable demands.

  Yang Cheng, who had always stood on the sidelines directing the game, now had to return to the coach's seat. However, he didn't sit down, but instead stood upright against the top pillar of the coach's seat. In front of him was a mess of debris that had fallen from the stands, including paper towels, drink bottles, cardboard boxes, and even... a woman's lace-trimmed underwear.

  "That sissy Chinese pretty boy, come out and I'll beat you up!"

  On the stands just behind, a painted-up woman was yelling shamelessly, and it was from her hand that the underpants had been thrown, barely missing Paul Baier's head, scaring this German middle-aged man out of his wits.

  "Oh God, what kind of people are these?" Paul Bier yelled with a sorrowful face.

  He thought today was absolutely the most devastating nightmare of his life, because he almost got caught with a woman's underwear on his head, what could be more unlucky than this?

  Yang Cheng gritted his teeth and stared ahead, at this moment he even had the mood to kill.

  In the first half, Kaiserslautern had two players down, one was Grenier who replaced Fritz on the right wing and the other was midfielder Bellon. It's clear that these two players were deliberately fouled by Oldenburg.

  Two consecutive players were injured, and the players of Kaiserslautern were slightly affected. Even at halftime, Yang Chen motivated the players again, but to no avail.

  "TMD, the chief referee's law enforcement is too soft!" Tim also complained on the side.

  German football is heading towards physical confrontation, and the referee's penalty scale can't be strict, plus the 2nd Bundesliga is already very intense, and Oldenburg is even more brutal after being promoted from a lower league.
