So what if I'm just strolling around the field? My shots are guaranteed to go in.

After the game restarted, Lin Fan clearly felt the defensive pressure around him.

He was constantly followed by a Schalke 04 defender.

Moreover, no matter where he goes, the other Schalke players nearby are always on guard against him.

As soon as he makes a move to receive the ball or make a run, someone will immediately come up and mark him closely.

Lin Fan tried several times to get into an open space, but he always failed because the defense around him was too tight.

Moreover, Lin Fan also discovered that, in addition to his own side, Schneider's side was also being closely monitored.

He was always surrounded by defensive players.

Whenever he gets the ball, he will face at least one or two opposing players coming up to intercept him.

Moreover, these defensive players specifically targeted Schneider's weakness in physical confrontation, using direct physical contact in every defensive play.

This caused Schneider's central control to begin to falter.

"We see that Schalke 04 seems to have adjusted their defensive strategy. They've strengthened their defense against Lin Fan and Schneider."

"This strategy seems to be working to some extent. The connection between Lin Fan and Schneider has been disrupted, and the two of them have had significantly fewer opportunities to get the ball."

"However, this also tied down Schalke 04's attack."

"The two sides are currently at a stalemate, and it remains to be seen who has more patience."

"This is also a test for Lin Fan, to see if he can continue to shine under such pressure."

Zhang Xuan's tone was filled with anticipation, but also a hint of worry.

In the past, Chinese players could perform brilliantly and dominate when things were going well, but they would often collapse when they encountered difficulties.

There are countless examples of this.

He is now very worried that Lin Fan may also have this problem.

Actually, it wasn't just him; Maister on the sidelines was also observing Lin Fan's performance.

He is now looking forward to seeing how Lin Fan will perform in adversity.

In his view, whether a player is trustworthy depends on how he behaves when faced with difficulties.

If you're playing well when things are going your way, but suddenly go silent when the opponent focuses on marking you, that's not the performance of a mature player.

Maister hopes Lin Fan isn't that kind of player.

Meanwhile, on the court, after several attempts to probe, Lin Fan immediately realized that he was being targeted.

In this situation, it's unlikely that you'll be able to easily obtain an opportunity like you did before.

However, he wasn't in a hurry.

Because of the accumulation of the previous tens of minutes, the number of steps in the system has reached more than 25,000. As long as there are another 400 steps, I will be able to get a reward again.

So under these circumstances, Lin Fan simply slowed down the pace and began to stroll back and forth in the frontcourt.

This immediately made things difficult for Becker, who was defending him.

The head coach had previously assigned him the task of closely marking Lin Fan.

No matter where the other person goes, you must follow.

This was not a difficult task for him.

In his opinion, the Chinese man opposite him, although physically strong, was only average in terms of speed and footwork.

Their physique is no weaker than the opponent's, and their defensive skills are among the best in Schalke 04 U19.

Completely freezing the other party is not a problem at all.

And that was indeed the case; in the previous few confrontations, the opponent was completely unable to do anything to him.

Becker believed that as long as he was on the field for a minute, he would absolutely prevent the opponent from doing anything.

But to his surprise, the opponent couldn't break through his defense and started to play haphazardly.

What's with this guy just strolling around in the attacking third?

Has this guy completely given up on the attack?

But you've given up, what am I supposed to do?

Am I destined to be tied to this person's side like this?

Especially since this guy always tries to lead himself to some marginal places.

This makes it impossible for him to effectively participate in his team's attack.

It's important to know that although he's a defender, he can also play a significant role in the attack.

Now, following this tanking guy, I'm completely unable to participate in the team's offense.

This is simply a waste of resources.

"Kid, are you giving up? Are all Chinese people this cowardly? You shrink back at the slightest setback!"

Becker started trash-talking Lin Fan in his ear, trying to provoke him.

To his dismay, Lin Fan remained unmoved and continued to wander around as if nothing was wrong.

"Fuck! Coward! You coward! Don't you feel ashamed, you Chinese brat!"

Becker was getting a little frantic, and his words became even harsher.

Hearing the somewhat exasperated words of the big, goofy guy next to him, Lin Fan suddenly revealed a mysterious smile.

"You big oaf, you believe me or not, I'll make you watch the ball kick into the goal right before your eyes?"

Upon hearing Lin Fan's words, Becker looked at him as if he were an idiot.

"Who the hell do you think you are? The King of Football? Even the King of Football wouldn't dare talk like that. I'm waiting to see how you perform."

Becker had already categorized Lin Fan as a megalomaniac.

In his view, Lin Fan's actions were nothing but impotent rage.

He didn't believe the other party could accomplish anything.

Lin Fan remained silent at this point.

The reason he dared to speak like that was because he had just received a system notification.

He has added another "Goal-Guaranteed Shot" card to his system.

Lin Fan suddenly ran towards the edge of the penalty area.

As he ran, he waved to Schneider, who had just received a pass from his teammate, asking for the ball.

"Schneider! Over here!"

Upon hearing Lin Fan's call, Schneider, who was being besieged by two Schalke 04 defenders, didn't hesitate and immediately pushed the ball towards Lin Fan's position with the instep of his foot.

However, just as he passed the ball out, Schneider saw the big guy who had been following Lin Fan rushing up from behind like a madman.

Seeing this, Schneider couldn't help but feel worried.

Judging from that big guy's posture, as soon as Lin Fan receives the ball, the opponent will definitely try to disrupt him in the most aggressive way.

According to Schneider, Lin Fan's footwork skills are actually quite average.

Can he shake off that big guy's harassment?

Perhaps I should go back to defend.

The moment that thought crossed his mind, he saw the football roll right in front of Lin Fan.

At the same time, Becker, who was following behind Lin Fan, had already made a sliding tackle.

As long as Lin Fan receives the ball and hesitates even slightly, his long kick will directly destroy the ball.

But at that moment, Lin Fan did something that surprised everyone.

Instead of stopping the ball at his feet, he faced the rolling ball, turned sideways to the goal, and unleashed a powerful shot.

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, the football, aided by Lin Fan's kick, instantly transformed into an arc, soaring high into the air, its trajectory seemingly heading straight for the corner flag.

"What's this guy doing? Trying to get out of a tight spot?"

"Was it a shot? That's so...inaccurate."

"This guy's gone mad!"

…………

Seeing Lin Fan's actions, everyone around him had this incredulous thought.

Then, to everyone's astonishment, the football, which was originally heading towards the corner flag, drew a large arc in the air and suddenly changed direction.

It actually started flying towards the goal.

Schalke 04's goalkeeper, Vitalie, was just watching the game.

He wanted to see where the football would eventually end up.

But as I watched, I suddenly realized that the football was flying towards me at high speed.

Moreover, the flight path was unpredictable and extremely difficult to discern.

His expression changed drastically, and he immediately moved his feet, trying to block the football's path.

However, the unpredictable trajectory of the football caused his judgment to be flawed.

As he lunged towards the football in mid-air, the ball suddenly deviated slightly.

It was this slight deviation that caused his save to miss completely.

The football grazed his hand, whistling through the air, and plunged into the goal behind him.
