Ch. 99 - Post-Match


This win was very important for Koln Athletics.


Koln Athletics scored 74 points in 35 games and safely took the top of the table, followed by 1.Mainz with 71 points, Leipzig Sport with 71 points, Armina Oldenburg with 70 points, Chemnitz with 69 points, and Dresden 09 in 6th with 68 points.


At this point, Class 2.The Bundesliga is very chaotic and it is still not decided who will take the place for promotion. In fact, Koln Athletics who lead the standings are only 4 points from fourth rank, Armina Oldenburg.


Koln Athletics will face Dynamo Aue at home, also the first opponent Raynaldi faced when starting his professional career. He still remembers black defender Ryan Donk guarding him in various ways including foul language.


Dynamo Aue's performance this season is just mediocre. They scored only 38 points and were ranked 11th. Since they were defeated by Koln Athletics, their position has not changed much, but their opponent Koln Athletics has already topped the standings.


There were also several episodes after the game.


When Bastian Flitz saw Raynaldi again disappear after the second-half goal, he was idle and bored, so he chatted with Adinda for a few words.


Of course Adinda was happy to chat with him. After all, he was also a legendary star in Germany. Raynaldi's assessment of his mouth could also be written into a report. Bastian Flitz who was watching the match was also very interested in Raynaldi, and the two chatted.


In the end, Adinda also finds Raynaldi, and the three of them take pictures together.


It was the second time Raynaldi had seen the German striker, the first time Bastian Flitz was still Team Head Coach of Junior Gelserkichen FC, he seemed impressed with Raynaldi's performance after watching this match.


About Bastian Flitz, Raynaldi also quite respect him. In the previous game, when Bastian Flitz became the opponent's coach, he could formulate a way to temporarily stop himself with limited information in the match.


After that game, Bastian Flitz also gave Raynaldi a lot of input about the style of play he took and the advantages and disadvantages clearly. He also gave advice to Raynaldi who helped his development a lot until now.


Against Hanau SV who are in poor form this season is nothing to be proud of. Hanau SV have lost this match and continue to be bottom and fall into the relegation zone.


But the outside world can not sit still, because Raynaldi again scored a goal that made the number of goals to 25 goals that exceeded the acquisition of Nkufu.


The Leipzig Sports captain has scored 24 league goals so far this season. Nkufu has also played far more than Raynaldi, since the start of the season he has played 33 games and scored 24 goals.


Raynaldi, who joined the team just after the winter break in January, has played just 16 games, but has scored a total of 25 goals. With an efficiency of 1.5 goals for each match is clearly superior to Nkufu who only has an efficiency of 0.73 goals for each match.


Only played in 2.The Bundesliga, but Raynaldi's reporting has been outstanding even among European geniuses. Leverkusen SC had been thinking of pulling Raynaldi back into the first team, but were hampered by a loan deal that suggested Leverkusen SC had no right to call back players before the end of the season.


German media again cited a photo of the Koln Athletics and Leipzig Sports match, in which Raynaldi scored in front of Nkufu, against the background of the 2nd goalscorer list.Bundesliga.


At a post-match press conference, this question was posed by a German reporter to Thomas Sobek. "Now Ray has scored 25 goals in 16 games 2.Bundesliga, do you think he has a chance to compete for the Golden Boot?"


“So do you think Raynaldi is much better than Nkufu?” Ask another reporter.


“Maybe?” Thomas Sobek chuckled and said nothing more.


Journalists were also used to the speech ignoring Thomas Sobek. In short, they have made a lot of headlines. For example, Thomas Sobek did not put Nkufu in his eyes, and Raynaldi confidently competed for the league's golden boot this season.


Raynaldi himself did not accept interviews from them, but he was forcefully used to be a gun in the hands of others.


. . . . .


In the 36th round of the league, Koln Athletics ushered Dynamo Aue at home.


Two days before the match, Raynaldi received a call from Joko Sasongko saying that the match would be broadcast by several domestic TV stations. Most of the staff have arrived in Germany and may have to accept some interviews.


Raynaldi was a little surprised. Of course he knew he would have such a day sooner or later, but he did not expect match 2.The Bundesliga will be broadcast on TV. But the reality shows that his existence changed this, at least the last 3 games of Koln Athletics will definitely be broadcast on TV.


It could be considered Raynaldi's first European game in front of domestic fans.


Previously there was no live TV broadcast of match 2.Bundesliga even Bundesliga matches are also quiet enthusiasts in the country. Previously, domestic fans from Raynaldi could only see the match via video streaming. This was the first time Raynaldi's match had been broadcast live.


Although Raynaldi already played for the National Team and was broadcast live by the National TV station but the match in Europe is clearly different, because almost no Indonesian player can adapt in Europe well, even the main attacker of the Indonesian National Team, Aji Pamungkas also returned home after not being able to survive the European weather.


Before the game, many Indonesians came to Koln City Stadium, all from TV stations or sports media. Plans for a live broadcast for this match will be held on Compas.Net TV. Raynaldi also received an interview with a domestic TV station. The TV station interview is better than the time with Adinda. interviewer Franda Natalia is much more formal and mature.


. . . . .


Thousands of miles away, Anita and Lisa wait nervously to start the game. Advertisements aired on TV. Due to various job reasons, Anita previously did not have time to find a video streaming channel to watch Raynaldi live.


One thing is not having time. The other thing is that there are almost no common channels. So even if her daughter also wants to watch her brother compete, she has no idea how their son has played in Europe in the past six months.


After hearing that the sports channel Compas.Net TV will broadcast the game Raynaldi, Anita and her daughter finally had the opportunity to watch the game that was broadcast live at 19:00 WIB.


On TV, Raynaldi and his teammates entered the field. After a while, the live broadcast focused on Raynaldi.


“Bu! Mother look! That's brother! Sister in TV!” Lisa jumps off the couch and points at the TV showing Raynaldi. Meanwhile, Anita just chuckles at her daughter's silly behavior.
