In the early morning of June 15th, Beijing time, the much-anticipated European Cup was held as scheduled at the Allianz Arena in Munich. The host Germany in the first game was full of firepower. They scored 5 goals in a row and created a 5:1 tragedy; Scotland was in This kind of fiery offensive can only lead to a huge defeat. The 21-year-old Wirtz has become the youngest player in German history to score a goal in the European Cup, and his superstar potential is gradually revealed.
In the past three major competitions, the German team unfortunately lost in the first game. As the host, Germany naturally did not want to continue this curse again; after the game started, they attacked the Scottish goal. In the 10th minute, Wirtz stepped forward and took the lead to break the deadlock. He received Kimmich's cross at the top of the center arc and fired a low shot to open the door to victory; this was Wirtz's first time in the World Series. Upon his debut, he lived up to expectations and scored a goal. According to statistics, Wirtz became Germany's youngest player in the European Cup at the age of 21 years and 42 days. At the same time, the goal at 9 minutes and 54 seconds was second only to Greek midfielder Karagounis' goal at 5 minutes and 57 seconds at the beginning of the 2004 European Cup.
In addition to one goal, Wirtz touched the ball 46 times in the 63 minutes he played, and made 29 of 31 passes. The passing success rate reached 94%. He also won 2 duels and made a dribble. and made 1 foul, and scored 7.5 points after the game, second only to Havertz and midfielder Kroos who made great achievements in passing and shooting.
I have to say that this past season was an important year for Wirtz. He was the absolute core figure of Alonso on the offensive end in Leverkusen; 18 goals and 19 assists were the best performance in his career so far. . He also used his outstanding performance to help Leverkusen win the Bundesliga championship for the first time in team history, and also won the German Cup, winning the double championship this season. It is precisely because of his outstanding performance that Wirtz's worth has soared to 130 million euros, making him the most valuable player in the Bundesliga.
Wirtz's outstanding performance has naturally attracted the attention of many wealthy clubs. Even though it has been confirmed that he will continue to play for Leverkusen next season, Bayern, Manchester City and Real Madrid are all eyeing it. Marca even revealed that Real Madrid will play next summer. More than 100 million euros will be spent to sign Wirtz. Of course, Wirtz's goal this summer is to help the German team return to the top of Europe. Deutsche Chariot's performance in the past few competitions has been bleak, and young players such as Wirtz and Musiala are indeed needed to take over the banner of their predecessors.
