Chapter 82 Little Aif
Aif Jr. is only thirteen years old this year. He is a student at Gelsenkirxing Public School and a very ordinary Schalke 04 fan. However, people around him do not agree with this, because in this public school in southern Germany, most of the children are fans of Dortmund.
Not only that, little Aif's parents are also loyal Dortmund fans.
These have a great impact on Little Aif. Previously, Little Aif was not a Schalke 04 fan. It should be said that he was still young at that time and could not understand this at all. However, four years ago, after watching a Gelsen Kirch derby of Dortmund and Schalke 04 with his parents, he became a loyal Schalke 04 fan.
Why?
Many people around me have asked little Aif. Everyone likes Dortmund. Why does little Aif like Schalke 04? The result was really unexpected. Little Aif's answer was: the fans of Schalke 04 are very good-looking.
This reason makes many people around them laugh and cry. They always make little Aifer change his point of view and support Dortmund with all kinds of aspects that Dortmund is better than Schalke 04.
"Look, Dortmund is in the top three. Let's look at Schalke 04? Did that team find the ranking?
"Dortmund has had a lot of stars this summer!"
"I think next season, the team is likely to compete with Bayern. Even if they can't play, they can take the second place in the league. Dortmund is the pride of Gelsenkirxing!"
......
These similar words, little Aif can often be heard from the surrounding population, perhaps the rebellious thoughts of youth and adolescence. The more he hears people around him say such words, the more little Aif hates Dortmund. In countless dreams, little Aif will dream that Dortmund ranks 18th in the Bundesliga, that is, the most The latter one, so that he was 'smoothly' relegated to the Bundesliga!
What will these guys say at that time?
Schalke 04 is better!
However, the whole family of Little Aifre is also a Dortmund fan. When he usually talks about football, he is greatly affected. This influence makes little Aif a little unbearable. Every time he watches the latest news of the Schalke 04 team, his father and mother always say, "What's in that team? Okay, little Aif, come to Dortmund!"
"Yes, Dortmund is a giant in Germany!"
Sometimes little Aif felt uncomfortable when he heard this kind of words. He retorted angrily, "Then why don't I like Bayern Munich?" That team is stronger!"
It was very direct, but his parents had nothing to say.
As a loyal fan, they can understand Xiao Aif's mood, but they understand that whenever the two teams compare, the two sides always argue. Every time it ends with Little Aif's failure, mainly because he is the only one who likes Schalke 04.
"If only Schalke 04's grades could be better, preferably... It can surpass Dortmund." Little Aif always thinks so. If it really happens, it will become the basis for his rebuttal anyway. Very important basis.
It is said that Schalke 04 recently transferred a new player from the youth team. He is a very young player, only 19 years old. Little Aif would like to see it, but because he is still young, he does not have so much pocket money to support him to watch every Schalke 04 game.
“... He scored four goals in three games. A few days ago, I heard that Schalke 04 was going to play in Munich. Little Aif wanted to go very much, so he said to his father, "I like that No. 30 star very much. He is really awesome!" By the way, his name is Jack, and he is a super genius! He will definitely surpass... Yes, it's more than Barak!"
In little Aif's heart, there is no concept of position. He just wants to watch the Schalke 04 game and just find a reason.
This reason is at least much better than 'boring' watching the ball. Aif (as the name implies, the father of little Aif) feels that there is no reason not to take the child. Although he is not a Schalke 04 fan, his family has watched many Dortmund games since he was a child, but rarely went to Schalke 04 games. This is very unfair to the little Aifer who likes Schalke 04. He thinks he should win the requirements of Little Aif.
Therefore, Aif went to Munich with little Aif and his wife Isa. These two days were also Aif's vacation, and the whole family was also a trip!
"Little Aifer, if Schalke 04 loses, you can't cry..." Before watching the ball, Isa didn't forget to remind her.
She was kind-hearted, but little Aif was very uncomfortable. He retorted, "Isa, I'm thirteen years old, and... Schalke 04 will definitely win..." With that, he has no confidence. You know, the opponent is Bayern Munich. In the eyes of German fans, Bayern Munich is almost invincible.
"Definite?"
Isa laughed out loud. She has lived in Gelsenkirxing since she was a child and has never left. Even if she was married to a Dortmund fan, she never thought that her son would fall in love with Dortmund's sworn enemy.
"Okay... Let's not talk about this. I don't think there's anything to say. There is no competition yet. How can you know the result? Is it? Have you been guided by God? Little Aif said, with a trace of disdain in his words.
He hates the whole family talking about two teams.
"I'm sure this will be a boring ball game!" Finally, it was his father Aifer who made a concluding speech.
※※※
Schalke 04 scored the first goal, and the goal was scored by No. 30 Jack. Li.
Little Aif was excited, because the player he said scored Bayern's goal, and Schalke 04 took the lead! As I said before, Jack is very strong!" Although it was the first time for little Aifer to see Don Jack himself play, he couldn't stand his love for Schalke 04. He was particularly excited to see Schalke 04's goal.
"That's not necessarily. This may be luck..." Isa never forgets to hit her son.
Soon Bayern equalized the score, and the whole family watched the game silently. The parents were afraid that their son would be unhappy, while Little Aif was worried about Schalke 04: "Bayern Munich is so despicable!" That's what he said.
This sentence has been recognized by the whole family. They are not Bayern fans. Although they are sure of Bayern's strength, they have no good impression of Bayern.
"Oh! God, Jack scored again!!!" When Don Jack scored the second goal, Aif was excited to stand up and shout with the Schalke 04 fans.
At this time, even Aifer has to admit that the number 30 of Schalke 04 does have two brushes. Ordinary people can't score Bayern's goal. You know, the goalkeeper is the goal god in the hearts of German fans: Kahn!

As the game progressed, until the end, the whole family had been listening to little Aif, who was worried about Dortmund.
"This guy is really awesome. In the game with Schalke 04, the team should be careful of this boy..." Aif said to his wife, "I have carefully studied the schedule. That game seems to be in the penultimate round, that is, there are two more games..."
Isa said cheerfully, "Be careful. Bayern lost miserably, but I think the time of Dortmund's rise may have arrived..."
"It's Schalke 04! Didn't you see it? The 30th completed the hat-trick, haha, I said he was a genius!"
On the way back, little Aif looked very excited. He kept talking about the game, and the name 'Jack' made the Aif and his wife feel very bad, because they didn't like to hear about Schalke 04, especially... Good news.
As a Dortmund fan, I was born with a hostility to Schalke 04!
Obviously, this also exists in little Aif. Since he fell in love with Schalke 04, he has hated Dortmund very much. This family is really an alternative existence in Germany, but in fact, in Gelsenkirxing, many families have this problem, just because Schalke 04 and Dortmund are Popular players in the Gelsenkirxing area, at the junction of the fan area between the two sides, many families have a 'faith' difference.
This kind of problem is really annoying.
