Frankfurt wins the Europa League,

Huang Jianxiang commented,

Frankfurt won the Europa League, a team with crazy fans and deep financial support (because Frankfurt is the financial center of Europe),

If it is not the 50+1 policy restriction of the Bundesliga, allowing them to free their hands and feet to buy people,

They are likely to become the Bundesliga's Chelsea Manchester City greater Paris, quickly constructing a giant.

When Yang Chen played for Frankfurt, as long as they broadcast their matches live on the weekend,

Millions of Chinese fans will wait in front of the screen for such a middle and lower-class team, watching them thrilling relegation, watching Yang Chen destroy the city and pull up the wall,

More than two decades have passed, Eintracht Frankfurt has reached a new height, and Chinese football has fallen to a deeper bottom.

Around the 21st century, on the court in Frankfurt, there was once a Chinese player active, that is, Yang Chen.

July 1, 1998, a day that thrilled fans across the country.

Yang Chen joined the Bundesliga Eintracht Frankfurt team for a transfer fee of 750,000 yuan.

In this way, he became the first Chinese player to land in the five major leagues in Europe.

In the 1998-1999 season, Yang Chen's performance in the Bundesliga can be said to have made himself extremely proud of both Chinese and Chinese fans, and he scored 8 goals for Eintracht Frankfurt, thus helping the team to relegation.

What is still fresh in the memory of veteran fans is that in a key relegation battle in Frankfurt,

In the team's 5-1 sweep of Kaiserslautern, it was Yang Chen's explosive shot that knocked on the opponent's door first.

As a result, the team's goal frenzy was set off, and finally Eintracht Frankfurt won a big victory and relegation success.

Unconsciously, more than 20 years have passed since such a good time, and we only have the memories of Yang Chen left.

See the miraculous performance of Japanese player Daichi Kamada in Eintracht Frankfurt,

Now we are only left with envy and helplessness.
