Chapter 223 The Thirtieth Championship! New Player Missions

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and started the game again.

In the 47th minute, Moscow launched an attack.

Vidic clears the ball with a header.

Motta's pass to Ribery was intercepted.

Zhirkov launched a counter-attack, sending a through ball forward.

Krasic received the ball, shook off Ashley Young, and passed it diagonally to the middle.

Löw took a low, low shot from the edge of the penalty area.

Van der Sar made a diving save to keep the goal intact.

In the 53rd minute, Ashley Young and Ribery launched a coordinated attack down the right flank.

Ribery scored a one-on-one against Berezutsky, but Berezutsky's sliding tackle only delayed Ribery's chance to pass the ball.

Ribery crosses from the byline.

Both of Green's goals in this match were scored using this method.

Moscow certainly couldn't have been unprepared.

Alexei engaged in intense physical battles, preventing Giroud from getting into position.

The football slid past the goal and was cleared by Ignashevich.

Alexei's defense was successful, but he was already soaked in sweat at the start of the second half, clearly exhausted.

In the 58th minute, Ribery and Ashley Young switched positions, with Ribery dribbling the ball towards his own half and passing it back to Motta.

Motta passed back to Kompany, who launched a long pass to switch the attack, looking towards the weak left flank.

Vardy easily received the ball and faced Ignashevich one-on-one.

Vardy cut inside, dribbled past defenders, and then sped down the wing.

He delivered the cross with explosive power.

The pass wasn't very high because it was given to the near post.

Lu Kai surged forward into the penalty area, jumped slightly, and headed the ball towards the goal at the near post.

Unfortunately, there wasn't enough time to gather the power for a header, and the ball wasn't fast enough, allowing Akinfeev to block it.

Alexei then came to the rescue.

In the 62nd minute, Motta fouled Krasic and received a yellow card.

In the 64th minute, Kompany committed a foul outside the penalty area and received a yellow card.

With the Green Gunners primarily attacking down the right flank, Ashley Young's forward runs are certainly effective, but he will inevitably struggle to cover the defensive end.

Meanwhile, Zhirkov and Krasic, both formidable opponents, seized the opportunity and continuously posed threats.

In the 65th minute, after successfully defending against this free-kick attack, Green Gunners quickly made a substitution.

Pepe replaced Motta.

Modric replaced Giroud.

The former is a substitution made in a position.

Compared to Motta's well-rounded offense and defense, Pepe is currently considered a defensive specialist, which strengthens the defense.

After Modric replaced Giroud, Lu Kai surprisingly moved to the center forward position.

Modric dropped back to midfield, taking on the responsibility of organizing the midfield and making threatening passes.

Compared to the previous lineup, the offensive core of the Green Gunner has been moved forward in this lineup.

In the 69th minute, Modric received the ball, spun around to get rid of the opponent's pressure, and dribbled forward.

Lu Kai and Vardy combined to make forward runs.

Modric immediately used the outside of his foot to quickly pass the ball, timing it perfectly.

Vardy unleashed a powerful shot as the ball came hurtling towards him.

Akinfeev made a last-ditch save.

In the 75th minute, Ribery and Ashley Young once again unleashed a storm on the right flank.

Modric also cooperated with them, hitting the wall and splitting the ball to the side.

Ribery crossed from the byline and passed back to Ashley Young.

Ashley Young passed the ball across to Modric near his right flank.

Modric made a long-range shot gesture, but instead of a powerful shot, he delivered a cross!

Despite the ball's high speed, it was still a pass.

At the far post of the six-yard box, Lu Kai leaped high into the air.

He smashed the ball into his hand with a powerful header.

"GOAL! Three to two! Dartford have taken the lead again!"

"It's Lu Kai again! He's completed the hat trick!"

"Alexei clearly overlooked Lu Kai and didn't treat him as a proper center."

"Lu Kai suddenly dropped to the far post, and Ignashevich couldn't keep up at all."

In the 77th minute, Moscow launched a large-scale attack in an attempt to close the gap.

But Pepe intercepted the ball in the backfield and launched a long pass.

Pepe's presence in the Green Gun team is not strong because he is undergoing technical modifications.

His long passes are now quite impressive.

Lu Kai continuously engaged in combat with Alexei while running, causing Alexei to complain incessantly.

Although Lu Kai's fighting ability is not as good as Giru's, he is fast and his power is unpredictable, sometimes deep and sometimes shallow.

Alexei was completely unable to unleash his full power.

Exhaustion also caused a decline in his strength and speed.

After this exchange of attacks, Lu Kai successfully gained position and headed the ball across the goal.

Ribery received the ball and unleashed a powerful shot.

It hit the pillar and bounced out.

"Oh! It almost went in again!"

“Lu Kai is very good at positioning himself. He plays very intelligently and brings out all his advantages in the duels, such as speed, positioning, anticipation of the ball’s trajectory, and vision.”

"If he were to force possession, then getting to the first ball might not guarantee him ultimate control. Alexei also seemed intent on winning the second ball, but..."

"The Green Gun's counterattacks are becoming increasingly sharp, which will inevitably make the Moscow Central Army hesitant to act rashly."

"Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the offensive from Moscow is expected to slow down."

as predicted.

The Green Gunners then took control of the ball more often, pushing across the halfway line to organize their attack.

Even Zhirkov and Odja appeared in the left and right full-back positions.

In the 80th minute, Mertens replaced Vardy.

In the 83rd minute, Modric delivered a through ball.

The diminutive Mertens slipped into the penalty area, made a run to receive the ball, and crossed it from the left side of the penalty area... a feint.

Odia was knocked to the ground.

Mertens then went down the wing and delivered a cross.

Inside the penalty area, Moscow's players make up the majority.

On Green Gun's side, Lu Kai is the only one in a good position.

In the current lineup, most of the Green Gun midfielders and forwards are under 1.75 meters tall, with only Lu Kai being tall.

Moscow initially thought that air defense was not a major problem.

Unexpectedly, Lu Kai rose up from the ground inside the penalty area.

Golden Bomber!
The term "golden" does not refer to the color of the hair, but rather the color of the skin.

This is enough to prove how high Lu Kai jumped.

His neck was above the head of the defender in front of him.

boom!
The football was hit with a powerful "bombardment" effect, crashing into the net.

“GOAL!!!”

"Four to two!"

"The goal was scored by Luuuuu Kai!"

"A quadruple! He single-handedly defeated the UEFA Cup champions!"

"Lu Kai's goal-scoring ability has been completely unleashed in the center forward position. He is simply a ruthless goal-scoring machine. No matter the method, he can always put the ball into the opponent's goal!"

There was thunderous applause.

There may be no fancy skills, but what in the world of football is more spectacular than scoring a goal?
In the 85th minute, Moscow launched a high-quality counter-attack.

Löw sends a through ball during the advance.

Carvalho, making a run down the right flank, received the ball and surged into the penalty area before passing it to the far post. Vidic, on the move, failed to clear the ball.

Löw and Krasic were both in position to receive the ball, and they both raised their feet to shoot at the same time.

Krasic eventually stepped down.

However, Löw was also influenced by his teammates, pulling back his power before and after each kick to avoid hitting his own teammates.

The football soared into the air and flew into the stands.

A chorus of boos erupted.

Löw has a hard time explaining to everyone why his shot was so bad this time.

In the 87th minute, after Green Gunners intercepted the ball in their own half, Modric came back to receive it himself.

Moscow quickly retreated, awaiting a new round of offense and defense.

Ashley Young crossed from the wing, and Lu Kai headed the ball at the near post, but it went too high and flew out of bounds.

In the 90th minute, Modric made a series of feints and crosses from the right side.

The Green Gunners' midfielders and forwards all broke into the penalty area, including Pepe.

However, Modric ultimately passed the ball to Ashley Young.

The latter then kicked the ball in.

Lu Kai, positioned on the edge of the six-yard box, shoved aside Ignashevich, broke into the six-yard box, and, ahead of Akinfeev, stretched out his leg to volley the ball into the net.

After the ball passed Akinfeev, Akinfeev rushed out and knocked Lu Kai's shin down, and the two fell to the ground together.

But Lu Kai quickly stood up.

“GOAL!!!”

"Five to two!"

"Lu Kai scored five points!"

"He's simply unstoppable!"

"It's true what they say, the assists come and go, but Lu Kai is always there!"

There was thunderous applause.

……

Liu Yifei and Liu Shishi walked out of the stadium's VIP box and looked towards the stadium.

Liu Yifei was mesmerized: "Is this football?"

"Wow, he's amazing. It feels like no one else on the court can beat him, including his teammates."

Liu Shishi laughed and said, "Actually, Mr. Lu's performance in training was not that exaggerated. There are many players on the team who are better than him in certain aspects."

"But Mr. Alfred said that in a real game, Mr. Lu is the kind of player who can perform at two or three hundred percent."

"It is precisely because of his outstanding performance in the game that he can always impress more talented players and make them willingly train and play for the Green Guns."

The camera also focused on Liu Yifei and Liu Shishi.

The domestic broadcasters immediately recognized this ethereal beauty.

An awards ceremony was then held on site.

Lu Kai led the team to raise the trophy, and everyone shouted together, "We are the champions!"

Related news exploded instantly.

Sky Sports: "The Green Guns suffered a devastating defeat, completely dominated throughout the game! Lu Kai, the world's number one, is no longer pretending!"

BBC: "Lu Kai not only won the European Super Cup for the second consecutive year, but also achieved a five-goal haul in the European Super Cup for two consecutive years! Unprecedented!"

The Times: "Twenty-year-old Lu Kai wins his thirtieth career title, far more than he's aged! In his sixth year as a professional, he has already surpassed the achievements of many players in their entire careers!"

France Football: "While Dartford are unlikely to win any major accolades this season, Lu Kai's individual performance could surprise the fans."

Kicker: "The king lies dormant! The green-haired striker, now in a period of reflection, might unleash Lu Kai's scoring prowess!"

"Mundo Deportivo: Lu Kai's exaggerated goal tally cannot continue. Without the help of superstars, he may face a statistical slump this season! This match is just the dawn before the darkness!"

Of course, many media outlets also focused on things outside of the competition.

Dongqiudi: "Lu Kai invites Liu Yifei to dinner! Could there be something going on between them?"

The Sun: "Lu personally escorted actress Guo back to her hotel. Could there be further development between the two?"

Entertainment Headlines: "Liu Yifei's side has not responded to the dinner with Lu Kai. An insider said it was just a normal reception, and Lu Kai was simply fulfilling a promise he made at the Huabiao Awards!"

"See you on Friday": "Liu Yifei watched Lu Kai lift the trophy at the stadium, her eyes revealing deep admiration and love!"

These miscellaneous news stories start fabricating stories based on a single photo.

However, to the delight of some fans who ship the couple, the next day, Lu Kai personally led Liu Yifei on a tour of the Green Gun Stadium and they had afternoon tea at the Green Gun Museum.

"Mmm, this is delicious." Liu Yifei slurped up a mouthful of the Super A Cheese Grape that Lu Kai had ordered for her, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons with laughter.

Then Jiang Mengyun brought over some documents.

Green Gun Tea Girl plans to hire Liu Yifei as its spokesperson and then open stores in the country.

Moreover, by leveraging the franchise model, it will rapidly expand nationwide, creating economies of scale and becoming a leading high-end chain beverage company in China.

The market value will expand rapidly.

Therefore, signing Liu Yifei was worthwhile, especially since her career was expected to continue to rise afterward.

During this Green Gun China tour, many projects were successfully launched in China, including Green Gun Tea Girl.

Afterwards, Lu Kai took Liu Yifei to visit some nearby attractions, accompanied by Liu Shishi and Ivanka.

Daniel arranged everything.

The rich kid was already very familiar with these places, and the setup was perfect.

Immediately after Liu Yifei left, her agency came to discuss specific cooperation matters, clearly very satisfied with her trip to London.

Liu Yifei herself also posted some photos on social media, including group photos with her companions and photos with her close friends.

But the last picture is a landscape photo that seems ordinary, but there is actually a human figure reflected in the river.

If you zoom in and look closely, you can see that it is... Lu Kai.

Not many people notice this.

But Liu Shishi is one of them.

Originally, she and Liu Yifei were from completely different worlds.

But with Lu Kai's help, she has recently had several meetings with Liu Yifei, and the two get along very well and have become best friends.

Liu Shishi is already very satisfied.

However, after seeing the pictures posted by Liu Yifei, she still felt a little strange.

For some reason, she had the photographer take a picture of Lu Kai practicing shooting on the field, and then posted the photo on her social media platform with the caption:

"I've been watching this figure since the first rays of dawn; perhaps that's why he became the world's number one soccer player!"

Ding Dong!

When Liu Shishi looked at the app, it notified her that Liu Yifei had liked it.

Liu Shishi probably knew that Liu Yifei not only liked the post, but also saved the picture.

She suddenly realized why Liu Yifei and she had become best friends so quickly.

During our school days, weren't many best friends formed simply because the other person knew a certain male idol?
But this is not a bad thing.

Sometimes, getting along is more important than motivation.

……

[Ding! You have specified "Mota" to obtain the Alexander Song template. Please confirm... Confirmed]

Lu Kai gave the template for Fabregas' captain's armband to Motta.

The first person to use this template was Lescott, in order to give him some passing ability.

The second is Amorim, who possesses outstanding deadly passing ability.

Giving it to Mota was to give him the physical strength of Alexander Song, thus reducing the risk of Mota being killed in battle.

Without this, Lu Kai really wouldn't have dared to eat the Mota that had been stored for the past two years.

Because in the past two years, Motta has indeed been very fragile and easily broken.

Lu Kai then looked at the player task panel.

Several players on the team have new tasks:

[Who is F1: Giroud will be mocked by Benzema as a go-kart in the future; he must completely dominate Benzema in their duel and eliminate Benzema's team]

[Brotherhood Soccer: Ashley Young, aspiring to become the vice GOAT, understands the importance of his CBA teammates, assisting him with ten assists]

[Passing the ball: Ashley Young in football, LeBron James in basketball. A player on the team receives a pass from Ashley Young and completes the game-winning shot. Ten times.]

Peipei's "No Longer Getting Hurt - Part 2" continues her efforts in emotional management.

[Barcelona Star: Guardiola's level at Barcelona was questioned during his playing career, and the same is true during his coaching career. He needs to complete an assist hat-trick in Barcelona's matches to prove himself.]

[A shining example for the Chinese national football team: Helping Chen Tao realize his potential, shine in the Premier League, and win the Best Newcomer Award]

[The White Swan: Motta has always been seen as the successor to the Black Swan Rijkaard, but he has consistently failed to live up to expectations. This could help him secure a place on the Ballon d'Or or FIFA World Player of the Year shortlist.]

Lu Kai's path to mastery requires "completing ten player tasks," and he still needs to complete at least four.
