Manchester United's heir apparent, but can't play football.

Chapter 59 Arc-Enhanced Heavy Cannon
The game restarted in the middle circle.

Dortmund has possession of the ball.

Aubameyang kicked off and passed the ball across to Reus.

There was no violent collision.

Wolfsburg steadily retreated, gradually building a low defensive line.

Set up a bus!
The fierce wolf king degenerated into the appearance of a husky.

"A perfect interpretation of two football philosophies!"

"Klopp, high press."

"Black Gold, low post defense."

"The tactical philosophies of these two renowned coaches are heading down opposite paths in football."

Studio.
-
【What's the meaning? 】
-
Wolfsburg just launched an attack, and Klopp's team pressed high up the pitch relentlessly.
-
[Now Dortmund is launching an attack, and Hecking's team is calmly retreating to defend, which is a low-block defense.]
-
[Klopp vs. Hecking: A clash of titans between two tactical masters!]
-
Why did Wolfsburg launch so many attacks in previous highlight reels?
-
[Because the midfield pairing of Lillard and De Bruyne ensures the quality of counter-attacks and keeps the counter-attacking chain intact, the highlights make Wolfsburg seem like they're always going at it.]

Dortmund has a strong ability to attack from position.

Gundogan dribbles the ball forward down the middle.

Snapped.

Divide the sides.

“Mkhitaryan, with a light jump, slipped through.”

"Piszczek, who has made a run down the wing, stops the ball."

"Pretty!"

"Li Luo filled the gap created by Mkhitaryan's help to trick Piszczek, who was the Wolfsburg full-back."

The commentator was somewhat incoherent.

Coach Zhang found it difficult to describe in a short time.

Mkhitaryan feigned receiving the ball on the flank, tricking the Wolfsburg full-back into following him.

then.

Intentionally omitted.

Piszczek, making a run down the wing, received the ball comfortably with plenty of space.

Fortunately, Li Luo arrived in time and filled in that area.

Li Luo did not attempt to shoot.

With over 50 points in defense and tackling, blindly rushing forward will only make you a backdrop for the Polish team: Piszczek played as a center forward and winger from a young age, only switching to full-back a few years ago, and was even once a top 0.5 player in Europe.

De Bruyne watched this scene and quickly conveyed the message through hand gestures.

The Wolfsburg teammates understood immediately.

Li's meaning is: force, but don't rob!

'The goal should be for us to further consolidate our position and avoid easily losing our ground to press forward.'

'Don't doubt it.'

'Li must have figured out Dortmund's positional attack strategy tonight!'

Courtside.

The assistant coach said, "Boss, didn't you say before the game that we couldn't defend the low post?"

Black Gold stared intently at the green field and said:

"That's right!"

"Li thinks the same way I do: don't let Dortmund lure us out!"

"Defend firmly and don't lose your position easily."

The other side.

Klopp stood in the command area, continuing to make a variety of body language.

Destroyed buses are one of the problems in world football.

Besides, the Wolfsburg players aren't stupid; they're quite excellent in all aspects.

Westphalia.

The momentum grew increasingly powerful.

"Oh~ Oh oh~"

The sheer force of tens of thousands of fans was like the roar of a giant beast.

Overlooking the entire green field.

Most of the players were still clustered in Wolfsburg's half.

Dortmund's attacking force moved like a swarm of bees.

Sometimes it flies out in a semi-circular arc.

Sometimes they would venture into Wolfsburg's penalty area.

The Wolfsburg players, dressed in white away jerseys, looked like grains of rice.

The opponent's change in the direction of attack is like a rice sieve.

The rice sieve tilted and shook.

The rice grains sometimes clustered together, and sometimes scattered slightly.

Studio.
-
Dortmund plays a beautiful and pleasing game to watch.
-
[Excellent off-the-ball movement, strong playmaking ability, and fluid ground-based passing combinations.]
-
[Only Mkhitaryan's passes were a little slow.]
-
[It's no use; Wolfsburg's defenses think it's just a tickle.]
-
Dortmund desperately needs a complete center forward! It's a shame Lewandowski defected.
-
Aubameyang is very fast, but he's not good at dribbling past opponents, his physical strength is average, and he hasn't developed his back-to-the-basket game. He's not suited for positional play; he's better suited for counter-attacks.

Time slips away unnoticed.

In the stands, the technical representatives from the major teams were busy at work.

"Li's vision and wisdom are not only reflected in the offensive end."

“He has a strong ability to observe, like Busquets, and can predict the direction of the opponent’s attack at a ‘macro level’.”

"Active movement, wide coverage, positioning, reinforcement, occupying space, and commanding the defensive line."

"In one-on-one situations, the focus is on blocking the opponent's passing and shooting angles, rather than rushing in to tackle. This is a kind of defensive wisdom."

Technical representatives from Barcelona and Real Madrid.

The two of them closed their eyes simultaneously.
Whether with or without the ball, Li Luo's opponent is not any specific Dortmund player, but rather Klopp's "heavy metal rock football" philosophy.

The 24th minute of the game.

"Mkhitaryan!"

"Top-notch off-the-ball movement and excellent overall vision!"

"Reading Defense Line!"

"The pass was misplaced and landed on Gustavo's foot, then bounced off."

Dortmund's attack did not stop.

Klopp began to emphasize the continuity of attack very early on.

The bouncing football was quickly regained control by the Hornets players.

The 32th minute of the game.

Changes occur suddenly.

"Royce."

"After undergoing major surgery for severe injuries, he lost many of his abilities."

"There was no strong breakthrough, and the team relied on short passes and combinations with Gündoğan and Mkhitaryan."

"They're about to infiltrate."

"Pretty!"

Bumblebee finally had a chance to deliver a heavy blow to the husky.

The needle at the end reflected a cold glint.

Gundogan's diagonal pass broke through Wolfsburg's defense.

Aubameyang put all his effort into holding onto Wolfsburg center-back Knoch.

Take a step out of the darkness.

Snapped!
Unfortunately, he is not Borussia Dortmund's former center forward, Robert Lewandowski.

In hand-to-hand combat.

It is difficult to guarantee shooting accuracy.

Wolfsburg captain Benaglio leaped into the air, his pink glove touching the football.

"Sold it?"

"oops"

"thrilling!"

"Naldo clears the ball with a long kick!"

The ball, which was cleared, did not go out of bounds.

Wolfsburg full-back Ricardo makes a desperate chase and takes control of the ball.

Dortmund quickly launched a counter-pressing attack.

An extremely aggressive system of high-level oppression was rapidly implemented.

"Hehehe, it would have been better not to have saved that ball at all."

"Oops."

"Wolfsburg's rhythm is going to be disrupted, it's so chaotic."

"Ricardo's pass was intercepted."

"Dortmund immediately launched a fierce and relentless offensive!"

"so horrible!"

Clap clap clap!

A flurry of ball-touching sounds!

Dortmund's attacking group has top-notch off-the-ball movement as a whole.

Aubameyang, Reus, and Mkhitaryan quickly widened the attack.

Gündoğan and Jojic positioned themselves behind the defense, providing depth for the attack.

Even more alarming, two Dortmund full-backs also pressed forward aggressively.

Westphalia reached its peak of power.

The yellow behemoth launched a furious counterattack.

The husky curled up, shivering.

Black Gold clenched his fists nervously.

Snapped!
The bumblebee's buzzing attack came to an abrupt halt.

Mkhitaryan's pass.

Li Luo intercepted it.

The entire audience was stunned.

More than 70,000 Hornets fans at Westfalen were stunned.

It's almost climax.

How come.
"Hehehe, why did Mkhitaryan pass the ball to Li Luo?"

"A keen sense of positioning!"

"Yes, Li Luo, with his accurate prediction, just like Busquets, thwarted Dortmund's frantic attack!"

Wolfsburg's defense breathed a sigh of relief.

Black Gold straightened his green tie, regaining his former charismatic demeanor.

The planar view in spatial perception displays all dynamic information about the field.

Li Luo thought quickly.

There was no opportunity for a direct counterattack.

'Just now, all the Wolfsburg players tracked back deep into defense, even their main target man, Bendtner, came back.'

'Dortmund is rallying back towards us.'

Snapped.

Li Luo passed the ball to De Bruyne, who was making a supporting run.

The latter passed the ball with one foot.

Li Luo accelerated, made an arc-shaped run, and passed the ball with one foot.

"Bendner".

"It was also a one-touch pass."

"Wow!"

"The Arsenal emperor, the Chelsea ex-player, and the Manchester United heir—these three players were able to produce such beautiful combinations when they shortened their distance."

According to related news reports, Hecking has been having Wolfsburg players practice passing and running every day recently.

Klopp's high-pressure system is not just about aggressive bidding.

When the opponent is able to advance the ball to near the center circle line.

The high-level defenses will be reinforced.

The midfield and forward press will deliberately create a passing angle on either side or diagonally behind, intentionally giving the opponent a "way out," with the aim of hindering and delaying their overall attack. This is done until the ball actually travels to that side.

The situation will gradually cycle back to "intense and extreme high-pressing".

In the stands.

Technical representatives from major corporations, please pay close attention:
'Li's passing and running during the attacking phase was top-notch.'

'However, he didn't have the chance to make a through pass this time; Dortmund's defense didn't have the same weaknesses as last time.'

'Facing encirclement and suppression once again.'

'He'll probably pass it back, but if he does, we'll fall back into the oppressive cage of heavy metal rock football.'

Li Luo met De Bruyne's pass near the center circle.

He realized the problems he was about to face.

The moment they were about to be surrounded and annihilated.

The rolling football gently touched my left foot; there was no lingering, but a tender parting.

Snapped!
It flew lightly to the diagonal front of Li Luo.

next moment.

Start by taking a step forward with your right foot.

He kicked the grass hard.

Li Luo stepped forward with his left foot again, getting to the ball before Sven-Bender could reach it.

Just pick it up lightly.

He passed the ball to Bendtner in front of him.

"Pretty!"

"So elegant."

"Wrong-direction ball control".

"Second acceleration, easily escape the encirclement."

“Li Luo didn’t wait until others came over before he started to get rid of them.”

"He starts thinking about forward passing paths when others are preparing to form a perimeter."

Bendtner is active in both lines for Dortmund.

strictly speaking.

It's a back line, plus a single defensive midfielder - Sven-Bender.

The Bender brothers are famous twins in German football, with the other one, Rasbender, playing for Bayer Leverkusen.

Arsenal's "Emperor" gently controlled the ball, turning his back to Borussia Dortmund's center-back, Papastathopoulos.

One round.

It was made for Caligiuri, who had been inserted.

Studio.
-
Is that Papa also one of the Bundesliga's notorious ball-spinning monsters?
-
Papastathopoulos, he grabbed Messi's balls.
-
[I watched the live broadcast that year, and he was really rough with the claws; it was a childhood trauma for me. You can still find pictures of him and Messi online now.]

Courtside.

Black Gold looked excited.

"Correct!"

"Watch Li's gestures, don't rush."

"We've pushed the ball up to Dortmund's half. Pass it to Li properly! Play around Li!"

"I've heard of high-level pressure, but I've never heard of low-level pressure!"

"That's Li's strategic objective, that's correct!"

In your own half, when defending in the low post, you can't apply large-scale pressure, as this can easily lead to you being out of position and getting exploited by the opponent.

It can also be explained this way: because at this stage, the ball is in motion, close to your own goal, and the opponent's attacking distance is very short, so it would be very dangerous if you were out of position and rushed to intercept.

The other side.

Klopp's body language has become much more restrained.

It wasn't as exaggerated as before.

The defensive strategy of "heavy metal rock football" is not about frantically pressing and shoving, but rather about emphasizing coordinated movement as a whole.

"Incredible."

"I thought I was watching Bayern Munich play against Borussia Dortmund."

"Li Luo actually led Wolfsburg to force Borussia Dortmund into a low-post defensive posture in Westfalenstadion?"

"Dortmund's formation changed from 4-1-4-1 to 4-2-3-1, and finally to 5-4-1!"

There was no rush to attack.

Li Luo moved around while gesturing.

The Wolfsburg teammates understood immediately.

Rhythm.

Control the tempo, don't pass the ball forward too easily, and don't lose possession too easily.

Kick like you did in training.

The art style has changed.

Slower and slower.

Westfalen Stadium, known for its hellish atmosphere, no longer hosts heavy metal rock.

Instead, it becomes a "lullaby" that harbors hidden dangers.

Li Luo kept running.

He demonstrated exceptional balance with both feet and the ability to pass the ball with a single foot.

"Svensson, along with Li Luo, the midfield linchpin, stayed close the entire way."

"It won't stick."

"Li Luo is so agile, with a fast turning speed, quick footwork, and fast ball passing speed. I estimate that he can only be stuck with defensive midfielders who have a much lower center of gravity than him."

"Ouch."

"Li Luo is weaving a net again."

"Wolfsburg's passing and movement coordination is even better than in the last game!"

Pa~pa~pa~
clap clap clap!
The football was passed between the white jerseys, sometimes fast, sometimes slow.

Li Luo once again transforms into a powerful aura of enhancement.

Pass the ball at point 71.

Subtle improvements in force control, precision, and lead time have made Wolfsburg's overall passing game smoother.

Positioning.

Pass the ball.

Weaving a net.

Trapped in the hellish Westphalia, a young man in white with black hair, wielding a sharp sword, faces a ferocious yellow behemoth.

Courtside.

Black and gold hands are crossed in front of the chest.

He wore an expression of complete control.

"The training over this period has been very effective."

"You didn't expect that, did you? We were able to dominate Dortmund."

"Unfortunately, we haven't yet lured Dortmund's defenses out."

Grandstand.

The technical representatives from the major corporations were slightly surprised.

Not sure what happened.

It seems that Li Luo's short ground passes have improved significantly in terms of accuracy and other aspects.

A tower is built from sand.

The construction of the offensive chain in three stages—points, lines, and surfaces—has been elevated to a higher level.

Was it because the Europa League opponents were too weak? Did they fail to fully unleash Lee's potential?

"To reiterate, Li Luo's opponent is not any specific Dortmund player, but Klopp's philosophy of 'heavy metal rock football'."

"Tonight, he unleashed all the forms of Klopp's philosophy."

Time passed by minute by minute.

The momentum in Westphalia continued to rise and fall.

"An offensive rhythm as natural as breathing."

"The transmission is as smooth as flowing clouds and water."

"Under Li Luo's command, Wolfsburg is frantically probing Hornet."

"oops"

broken.

The connection was broken.

While keeping an eye on Li Luo, Sven Bender accidentally pulled down the former's pants!

Crash.

There was thunderous applause.

[Shock level +1!]

[Shock level +1!]

【.】

Li Luo was wearing leggings. Ugh, I mean, tackle shorts.

Thankfully it's not summer, otherwise...
He stood up, put his trousers back on, and ignored Sven Bender's apology.

Beep!
The referee blows the whistle.

Quick free kick.

The game continues.

"In the history of the Bundesliga, the handsome Santa Cruz once had his pants accidentally pulled down."

"Yes, everything is clearly visible."

"I believe many fans watching on TV still remember that scene."

On the green football field.

Changes occur suddenly.

Dortmund's defense has shown slight signs of weakness.

De Bruyne crosses the ball.

The football traced a rainbow-like trajectory in mid-air.

Bendtner leaped high into the air.

Snapped!
The ball was blocked by a Dortmund center-back, and in the process, it grazed the forehead of Arsenal's star player.

It drifted and plummeted towards Zone 14.

A planar view in spatial perception, giving you complete control.

Li Luo quickly got going, shaking off Sven Bender.

They stormed into District 14.

Swing your leg in mid-air.

78 points for shooting accuracy, 72 points for curve, and 86 points for power.

Bah!
The falling football instantly transformed into a cannonball.

It was whistling.

It's spinning.

Fierce and domineering, unstoppable.

"Arc-shaped Heavy Cannon!"

In an instant.

The exaggerated trajectory of the shot caught Weidenfeller off guard.

The white net was swung up.

0:2! ! !

The yellow behemoth let out a mournful howl and collapsed heavily.

The technical representatives in the stands got busy again.

Only Liverpool represented the team.

Looking out at Wolfsburg's manager, Blackgold.

"Mr. Black Gold."
