Soccer: Maxed-out ball control, the skill is too overpowered.
Chapter 14: Debut, First Goal!
ARD (German television channel 1), Sport1 channel.
This platform typically broadcasts Bundesliga and German Cup matches to German audiences.
Bayer Leverkusen playing against a third-division team shouldn't be on TV.
However, since there were no other shows scheduled for that time of day, the TV station simply arranged to broadcast the show live.
As you can imagine, the viewership was low, with only die-hard Bayer Leverkusen fans watching.
Commentator Mehmet Scholl, a former German international player, transitioned into a commentator after retiring.
Today it was his turn to provide commentary, and he used harsh language to criticize Leverkusen's poor performance throughout the match.
"It seems like Leverkusen were holding back in the first round of the German Cup, planning to use their trump cards later."
"They want to deliberately appear weak to mislead their Bundesliga opponents when facing teams in the third division."
"Oh, sorry, they've lost their chance. With this loss, they can now focus on preparing for next year's German Cup."
"Wait! It seems Leverkusen hasn't given up yet; they've finally remembered to make substitutions and brought on their secret weapon from the bench!"
Who is it?
"Wow, it's Lu Shaw, the 16-year-old who just signed this summer! He might be the key to a comeback!"
After saying this, commentator Sauer himself burst out laughing.
"Oh, this match is outrageous. To be honest, viewers... Leverkusen fans, don't listen, or you'll lose your temper."
"With their current squad, do Bayer Leverkusen have the ability to compete for the title this season? Do they have the ability to reach the Champions League quarterfinals?"
"no."
"I'd make a bold prediction: Bayer Leverkusen will have a tough time finishing in the top four this season."
"Bayer Leverkusen has a strong midfield and defense, but what about their attack? They have no one!"
"Their rotation squad only has one substitute striker, and he's only 16 years old! That just doesn't make sense."
"If they still want to compete for a top-four finish, they should bring in a backup striker as soon as possible before the transfer window closes."
"Okay!! The game is now temporarily suspended. The fourth official raises his light board."
"The starting attacking midfielder, number 27 Gonzalo Castro, is off the field."
"The player coming on is our 16-year-old prodigy, Lu Shaw! A Belgian player of Chinese descent..."
"He broke the record for the youngest player to appear in the German Cup, at 16 years and 75 days old!"
……
"Go for it, kid, enjoy the game!"
Gonzalo Castro played with great frustration, running for over 70 minutes without finding any opportunities.
Seeing Lu Xiao on the sidelines, Castro already knew exactly what was going on.
The coaching staff is planning to forgo the cup competition and let a 16-year-old play just to experience the atmosphere of the game.
He high-fived the excited Lu Xiao.
But Lu Xiao had already transformed into a whirlwind, rushing past her towards the field.
"Young people are really energetic," Gonzalo Castro remarked with a wry smile.

Moved!
The moment Lu Xiao stepped onto the court, his integration value actually increased!
Even though it's only 1%, it's at least a good start!
A 16-year-old kid, the opponent didn't take him seriously and continued to launch an attack.
The third division team's crude attack resulted in a shot that was easily caught by the goalkeeper.
Goalkeeper Andres Palop intended to launch a long ball into the attacking third and casually finish the game.
Look around, hey!
The Asian boy is waving to him.
Young people are indeed full of energy!
Anyway, that's how the game is. Losing 0-2 to a third-division team is embarrassing enough. How much worse can it get?
Andres Palop switched to a hand throw and threw the ball forcefully toward the center circle.
"They're here!"
Lu Xiao aimed at the incoming ball and adjusted his footwork with small, quick steps.
Just as I was about to get into position, the opponent's dark and strong defensive midfielder charged at me without saying a word!
It's obvious they're taking advantage of my weak constitution!
"Leverkusen, a throw-in!! Oh no, the ball's gone."
Commentator Sauer saw the ending in advance.
A 16-year-old boy can't compete with a black man's massive waist in terms of physical strength and will definitely be pushed aside.
The audience in the stands were also in despair. What could they expect from a 16-year-old?
With only 15 minutes left in the game, let's just end this farce already.
Just when everyone had given up hope that Lu Xiao would step forward,
He remained calm and focused throughout!
【Nagi Seishiro Template (Fusion Value: 51%)】
The accompanying passive skill should be calmness.
Lu Xiao made a quick decision, took a running start, and gently lifted his chest to unload the object.
Just before the black man's waist was about to collide with him, he lightly flicked his toes and nimbly turned around in an instant to avoid the opponent's charge!
The football, like a magical pet, skillfully bypassed the heads of the two players and landed precisely in front of Lu Xiao!
He has successfully turned around and is dribbling straight into the opponent's half!
"Huh? Wait a minute!! That was a beautiful shot!!"
Commentator Sauer exclaimed in admiration!
Lu Xiao's brilliant play really impressed him!
The only bright spot in the entire ugly match was Lu Xiao's dribbling skills!
"Leverkusen has a counter-attack opportunity! Luis! Can he capitalize on it?"
Lu Xiao had already dribbled the ball across the halfway line in an instant, and the opponents only reacted then, with two midfielders flanking from the left and right.
"Fuck! Lu, hang in there!"
Left winger Julian Brandt didn't expect Lu Xiao to successfully dribble past him, and he was a beat too slow to start his run.
At this moment, he gritted his teeth and accelerated his sprint, running wildly along the sideline to support Lu Xiao in the frontcourt.
Leverkusen only had two attacking players left, and by the time the rest of their teammates reacted, it was too late. Suddenly, the situation on the field became chaotic!
"Lu! Still dribbling, surrounded by two players... just slide tackle!"
The opposing team's strong white midfielder was quite rough, and a flying tackle was about to stop Lu Xiao.
If you're not careful, you'll be shoveled to the ground.
The soft-hearted fans didn't dare to continue watching.
But who would have thought that Lu Xiao, a fearless young man, would boldly grab the ball with his foot!
"OHHH——"
"A rainbow flick! My God, he did it! He jumped over it successfully and continued to control the ball... Beautiful! A through ball to the left wing!"
"Leverkusen's counter-attack is still going strong!"
Lu Xiao's rainbow flick broke through again, and before the opponent on the right could press, he timely transferred the ball to the left wing.
Julian Brandt had no trouble getting in his way!
"Great shot!! Lue!"
The blond youth Julian was overjoyed. He accelerated to receive the ball and made a powerful run inside, cutting towards the penalty area!
Use your speed to overpower the opponent's right-back!
The stands at the BayArena erupted in cheers and thunderous applause!
However, Julian Brandt got too excited and took too big a touch of the ball, slightly losing control of it.
Just as the opposing center-back was about to cover and rush up to clear the ball.
"Shit!" Julian cursed under his breath.
His face contorted with rage, he sprinted forward with all his might, finally managing to poke the ball away before his opponent could react.
However, with the center-back effectively shutting down his inside game, he found it difficult to penetrate and had no choice but to go all the way down the court, dribbling the ball towards the baseline.
"That ball!! Julian Brandt didn't handle it well, he's still dribbling towards the baseline."
Commentator Sauer shook his head, silently making his own judgment.
The ball is gone.
There was no one to receive the pass in the penalty area, and the tall striker Derdiyok was still 800 miles away. By the time he got there, it would be too late.
He was surrounded by opposing defenders, who almost completely blocked him out.
The only available support is 16-year-old Lu Xiao, but Lu Xiao's height of 181 cm is no advantage against a defense that averages 190 cm or more.
This fast break has reached a dead end. The best solution is to slow down, protect the ball, wait for teammates to receive it, and then pass it back to play a positional game.
What a pity, such a beautiful breakthrough by Lu Xiao was wasted.
"Damn it!"
Julian Brandt also regretted it.
He got too excited and wasted the opportunity, now he's backed himself into a dead end.
Out of the corner of my eye, I glanced to the right and saw that only Lu Xiao was running diagonally at the back post.
do not care!
Anyway, I'm not taking the blame for passing the ball out; how you handle it is your business.
Julian Brandt gritted his teeth, curled the ball up with his left foot, and sent it flying toward the far post of the goal.
"That bastard!"
On the coaching bench, head coach Sasha slapped his thigh in anger.
It was a great opportunity, but it was completely wasted.
Who should the ball be passed to after the lob? 9% chance it will fly out of bounds.
No way... Holy crap?
Sasha thought the ball was gone, but then he watched helplessly as Lu Xiao sprinted towards the far post outside the six-yard box.
This kid actually jumped up in the air and stopped the ball with the outside of his foot!
Holy crap!
"Unmöglich! (Impossible!)"
The entire opposing team, including their head coach Sasha, was stunned! They were utterly shocked!
Lu Xiao stopped the ball in an unscientific way, preventing it from going out of bounds.
But... what should we do next?
The angle was almost zero degrees, and the guards blocked the inside, at most passing the ball back to a teammate to reorganize the offense.
Rage level: 65%
Seeing that the opposing defender had already moved his feet, preparing to dive back to receive the pass from his teammate.
Lu Xiao glanced at his anger level; it wasn't 100%, but it should be enough for a shot!
To the astonishment of everyone present,
After Lu Xiao's unscientific ball control resulted in a landing,
Then came an unscientific turn!
Lift your left foot.
0-degree angle —
Soar! In the air! Draw! Shoot!
whoosh-
The football flashed by, transforming into a bolt of lightning and darting into the top corner of the goal!
"Gooooooal——"
"Oh my god! Unbelievable! Lu Shaw—"
"When the team was in dire straits, the 16-year-old substitute became the savior in his debut, scoring his first professional goal!"
"A volley from a zero-degree angle pulls them back into the game!"
"The suspense has returned!"
