"From such a simple platform, you can tell how remote we have arrived... Why didn't they come to Metz to play a warm-up match with us?" Some players asked such a question.

"What I heard on the road is said to be because the other boss gave us the appearance fee..."

"That Grandet of Molinari! I tricked us into such a remote place for such a penalty kick!"

"Okay OK, guys." Captain Bobby Coney clapped his face and reminded their teammates not to talk too loudly and be heard by the coaches. "Just treat it as a tour. Or come to play away leagues. I think the air here is quite fresh and the scenery is also good."

The teammates laughed.

However, the captain is right to say something. "Just treat it as a away league", it really feels like playing away games.

"If we scored into the League Cup next season, there will be many such away opportunities." Chu Zhongtian agreed with the captain's statement. "Just warm up in advance."

※※※The team and his group arrived at the club on the bus provided by the opponent's club. They lived in the hotel arranged by the club. Considering that Hoffenheim is the most remote suburb of Sinsheim, they did not allow them to live in Sinsheim.

After settling down, many players went out together, and they were full of curiosity about this small place. Chu Zhongtian, Ribery, Ibisevic, Menez and others also walked together.

"This place is so small... I thought Metz was already a small place, but compared to this place, Metz is simply an international metropolis!" Ribery sighed while walking on the narrow street.

"I think the environment here is pretty good..." Ibisevic looked around and saw that although it was narrow but very clean, the streets, the shade of green trees, the blue sky and white clouds, and the gentle wind blew on his face to make people feel refreshed.

"What's good about this?" Ribery shrugged. "There are no big supermarkets, no cinemas, no nightclubs, no bustling commercial streets, no famous brand stores... nothing, it's really painful to live here..." Ribery complained. "Fortunately we just came here to play a game and left. I don't like it."

"Do you like the metropolis?" Chu Zhongtian asked.

Ribery nodded: "The bigger the better! If I live here, my wife can't even find a place to go shopping on the streets, that's absolutely not possible."

Hoffenheim is indeed a very small place. Several people chatted and walked along. It took only a little over an hour to visit all the streets here.

"This is simply a village..." After visiting Ribery expressed his direct impression of the place.

They had already walked to the vicinity of Hoffenheim Football Club, and Chu Zhongtian noticed a sign standing on the side of the road with German slogans. Fortunately, he learned German with Mathilde and barely recognized what it said: "If the dog rushed out, please lie on the ground and wait for rescue. If no one comes, then I can only wish you good luck!"

He laughed. Sure enough, he heard a barking from the yard.

"Let's go. Since there's nothing to visit, why not go back and rest. There's still a game tomorrow."

After tomorrow's game, the team will return to Metz and prepare to face the French Cup final with Paris Saint-Germain.

Chu Zhongtian and the others who returned to the hotel found that other teammates who went out for a walk were also back, complaining that there were no entertainment facilities in this small place.

"This must be the paradise for the most dedicated professional players." Ribery then interrupted. "The training ground is the only entertainment facility, except football and sleeping. What a regular life! I now know why Mr. Fernandez chose to warm up here. We don't want to do anything except games, and we don't have to worry about venting our extra energy elsewhere..."

His words attracted everyone's laughter.

And those teammates who didn't go out to show off their silence that they had long anticipated this situation and it was right to choose to rest in the room.

The group of people chatted together for a while, then they went back to their rooms to rest.

There is still a warm-up match tomorrow, but this is not something the players care about. They just want to end their trip to Germany as soon as possible, return to France, and then go to the French Stadium to compete with the arrogant Parisians!
