It took a long time to recover.

Mei Xi suddenly realized something.

"Wait... what did you just say? You're not interested in football?"

Every player who makes it to the World Cup is a top performer in their respective country's football field.

To become a top performer, besides talent and hard work, what you need most is passion!

Ultimately, it all comes down to passion.

Only then can a person walk through this thorny path.

But what did he just hear? This super genius actually said he wasn't interested in football?

Lin Yun nodded slightly.

"Yeah, I only play football occasionally!"

Just...playing around occasionally?

Mei Xi felt like she was about to collapse.

I suddenly remembered the other person's resume in FIFA.

They were nominally affiliated with an old, run-down club, and then suddenly they were selected for the World Cup qualifiers.

Before this match.

He has never even participated in a small competition.

At first, I wondered if there might be an error in the other person's resume?

Now... we can finally be sure, it couldn't be more true!

He must have been playing football casually when he was spotted by scouts from those clubs and recruited into their teams. Later, he was discovered by the national team coach and recruited into the national team to compete in the World Cup.

In other words...

The other party was there several months ago.

They hadn't even received systematic training.

They hadn't received any training and only played around with it occasionally.

Would that allow them to possess amazing shooting and goalkeeping skills?

Thinking about this, Messi felt that his football talent, which he had always been proud of, suddenly became worthless!

He practiced for countless days and nights before he was able to achieve something in shooting.

But the other party was just kicking around casually.

This allows for a near 100% success rate in long-range shots.

This gap is no longer just between people; it's practically the gap between humans and gods.

No wonder, nowadays people online call Lin Yun "God Lin," what else can you call him but a god!

"hehe……"

He looked up with a wry smile.

He looked at the handsome young man in front of him, so handsome that he could hardly open his eyes.

"If you don't retire, with your talent, it's possible that no country will ever be able to take the World Cup from you!"

Talent, huh...

Lin Yun's eyes flickered.

He has achieved his current shooting ability.

It was entirely due to drawing good skills from the system.

If we're talking about talent, the little old man in front of me is the one who truly possesses extraordinary gifts.

Despite being less than 1.7 meters tall, he was able to dominate the court and win numerous championships!

It's a pity, if it weren't for him this year.

The other team might actually win two consecutive World Cup titles.

After a few polite replies and completing the preparations, he officially arrived at the goal.

For a game that is almost certain to be won.

He just wanted it to end quickly so he could get ownership of Sky Island as soon as possible!

"Shh!"

As the whistle blew.

The highly anticipated finals, eagerly awaited by billions, have officially begun.

Argentina, as the world's number one team, possesses unprecedented dominance and explosive power.

In the first 20 minutes, Argentina had an astonishing nine shots, eight of which were on target.

Without exception, all of them were easily stopped outside the goal by the Dragon Kingdom's goalkeeper.

Argentina's head coach has piercing eyes.

On the sidelines, he made a gesture that only Argentine players would understand.

Upon receiving the signal, the Argentine players stopped pursuing high-quality shots and instead began frequently making short passes with the ball at their feet.

After the player successfully received the ball, he faced pressure from a defender from the Dragon Kingdom.

With a smirk, he flicked the ball towards the baseline, using his body to block the shot.

The Chinese defender couldn't stop in time.

The knee struck the Argentine player's thigh.

The Argentine player who was headbutted almost simultaneously clutched his leg, lay down on the grass, and began to wail in pain.

"Shhh!!"

The whistle blows, penalty kick!

The defender from the Dragon Kingdom's defenseman's expression changed.

He tried to get an explanation from the referee, but his teammates stopped him.

Upon seeing this, the audience held their breath and couldn't help but swallow.

Having watched so many matches of this World Cup, everyone knows that China plays very cleanly, with almost no fouls.

So many games since then.

The number of times a foul has resulted in a penalty kick for the opponent is very small.

In front of the television set in China.

Countless people watching the live stream couldn't help but curse out loud.

It's important to understand that penalty kicks are taken from very close range, and the shooter has ample time to prepare, which can easily catch the goalkeeper off guard.

Although Lin Yun had easily caught the penalty kick earlier.

But now they are facing Messi, the world's current football king!

His penalty kick.

Their strength is beyond question!

Just as a slight tension arose in China and throughout Asia.

Messi was the player who took the penalty in this incident.

The pressure was like a mountain.

He studied videos of all the matches from the Dragon Kingdom World Cup.

Knowing that Lin Yun's reaction speed was simply beyond the current limits of human beings.

Keep in mind that the penalty spot is only 10 centimeters from the goal. When all the top players in the league are ready, the ball speed is already over 100 kilometers per hour. That means that it only takes about 0.3 seconds for the ball to fly over those 11 meters and go into the goal.

And then humans see the action.

The fastest reaction time for a physical tackle is currently 0.2 seconds.

This also means that goalkeepers can only rely on anticipation to make saves in advance.

But the Chinese goalkeeper was a monster. He had an extremely fast burst of speed and his reaction was far beyond his limits. He would only make a save after he had confirmed the shot of the person taking the penalty.

"call!!"

He took a long breath.

After a run-up, he powerfully shot the ball into the bottom left corner of the goal.

Sure enough, the moment his foot touched the ball...

The other party made a move.

The position from which the body lunged out.

It was right at the bottom left corner of his target goal.

"Heh..." Macy braced himself on his knees, a bitter smile on his lips. "Monster!"

Judging from the other party's physique and reaction speed.

Aside from football, one can surely achieve something in any industry by delving into it deeply.

And viewers around the world watched as the ball was successfully saved.

All the fans of the Dragon Kingdom breathed a sigh of relief.

Although I have complete trust in Lin Shen.

But I still can't help but worry.

On the field.

The Argentine coach gritted his teeth.

He then made a gesture suggesting that they should engage in a chaotic battle in the penalty area, creating more blind spots for shots.

Next...

Argentina's player lineup has changed again.

They almost abandoned defense, with the two center-backs remaining in the center circle and the three midfielders pushing up to the edge of the penalty area, all diving into the six-yard box, preparing to create more shots that would leave the goalkeeper with blind spots, as the coach had instructed before the match.

The ball was passed around at Argentina's feet.

Messi secretly made a finger gesture to a player.

Once the opponent has successfully positioned themselves, immediately swing your leg and unleash a powerful shot, aiming directly at your teammate's calf.

The ball whistled out and struck the outside of an Argentine player's shin precisely, its trajectory immediately changing as it flew towards the edge of the goal.
