Hoffenheim Zhongwei Hiroki Machida was seriously injured, Japanese international is still optimistic in his life and death test

August 25, Bundesliga team Hoffenheim officially announced that Japan's central defender Machida Hiroki will undergo surgery due to a torn cruciate ligament on his left knee, and is expected to be on standby for about 8 months. This news undoubtedly puts huge pressure on the team's defense and also makes fans worried about the Japanese international's injury.

27-year-old Hiroki Machida transferred from Saint Giros, Belgium to Hoffenheim for 4.5 million euros this summer, which is also his first career debut in the Bundesliga. In the first round of the Bundesliga match against Leverkusen, Machida received a yellow card for a foul while defending Grimaldo. In the subsequent defensive action, he was hit by Grimaldo who lost his balance, causing an injury to his left knee and finally left the court. This injury not only made him miss the game, but also made Hoffenheim lose the main central defender in the first round of the new season.

This is not the first time in Machida Hiroki faced serious injury challenges. He suffered a testicle rupture in the first half of the World Cup 18 against Australia in June. Shockingly, he insisted on playing for 30 minutes with an injury. It was not until the pain was unbearable during the break that the coaching staff realized that the situation was serious. He then underwent an emergency surgery locally in Australia. Machida recalled the experience and said: ** "Take it out and put it back after repair." **After the operation, his testicles remained about 1.6, but he said that the injury would not affect fertility.

Hoki Machida's tenacity is moving. In the face of injuries, he showed admirable professional qualities and psychological endurance: even when he encountered severe pain from rupture of testicles, he still chose to complete the first half, showing the international player's fighting attitude and sense of responsibility to the team. Now he has suffered a torn cruciate ligament on his left knee again. Facing the eight-month recovery period, Machida remains optimistic and said he will fully cooperate with the surgery and recovery training to strive to return to the arena as soon as possible.

This injury also brought considerable challenges to Hoffenheim. When the team narrowly defeated Leverkusen 2-1 in the first round of the new season, Hiroki Machida was an important pillar of the defensive end. His departure means that the team needs to find alternatives in the central defender position, and at the same time puts a test of the stability of the defensive system in the new season. Hoffenheim officials said they will closely monitor his recovery process and fully support his surgery and recovery training.

The experience of frequent career hardships has made Hiroki Machida an inspirational existence in the eyes of fans. He not only has to overcome the troubles of physical injuries, but also faces psychological pressure and career development challenges. In an interview, Machida revealed that he had just married his wife and would use family support as a driving force to devote himself to rehabilitation training. His story is not only a true portrayal of professional players' injuries, but also reflects the athlete's perseverance in the face of emergencies.

From the Belgian League to the Bundesliga, from the front line of life and death in the World Cup to the first round of the Bundesliga, Hiroki Machida's career has been full of twists and turns. Every serious injury may have a huge impact on his career, but he always chooses to face difficulties and interpret "struggle and persistence" with his actions. Hoffenheim fans and Japanese fans are paying attention to his recovery process and look forward to the international team returning to the arena as soon as possible and contributing their strength to the team again.

This injury incident also reminds the entire football world that the efforts of top athletes on the field are often accompanied by high risks. Injuries not only affect the performance of the competition, but also affect the continuation of the athlete's career and quality of life. Hiroki Machida tells us through his personal experience that perseverance and optimism are also indispensable qualities for athletes.

With the determination of the operation time, Hiroki Machida is about to enter a long and critical recovery phase. In the next 8 months, he will face systematic rehabilitation training, physical recovery and psychological adjustment. Hoffenheim said that the team will accompany you throughout the whole process and provide the most professional rehabilitation guarantee. Fans also sent blessings on social platforms, looking forward to his return as soon as possible. The story of Hiroki Machida is a vivid portrayal of professional spirit and personal will in the face of injury. Even though he suffered two major injuries one after another, he still chose to face it with a smile and recover actively. This attitude itself is worthy of respect and sets an example for young players. In the future, whether he can return to the arena and shine on the Bundesliga stage again will become the focus of fans' continued attention.
